Chapter 25: The Debut
One afternoon when Wu Wei had just been working for half a month, he used the phone to ask for savings information from a county branch. It was reported that at the end of the year, various units gave out bonuses, and people bought pork to improve their lives, and the Spring Festival was not far away.
As soon as Wu Wei heard the source of storage, his brain was activated all of a sudden, the source of storage is not the source and source of savings, what is the source of savings, there is no saving if the income here and there is consumption, only the money left over after consumption can be used to save, the difference between the people's monetary income and monetary expenditure, isn't it the source of storage, isn't this the definition of the source of storage? I was able to define the concept, I was able to explain the concept, it felt quite smooth, and my mind suddenly became excited, and the phone was put down unconsciously. I felt that this feeling was very important, and I was afraid that I would not be able to come back if I slipped away, so I quickly picked up a pen and wrote it down on the manuscript paper. The reason for the excitement, what I wrote in the past was someone else's thing, it was the understanding and feeling of what others wrote, and now I write something purely about myself, and it feels so good to write about my own thing for the first time, I can also have something to write, I am so excited, both fresh and joyful, no wonder people call the first work a debut, which is comparable to the feeling brought by a virgin. Wu Wei is really lucky, if there is no excitement for the first time, I really don't know where his future life path will go, and fortunately, this first time came early, just half a month into the workplace. The delicious virginity naturally wants to expand and deepen, and the feeling is more eager to repeat. He didn't know that it would take hard work and a price to get that feeling over and over again. Luck comes with preciousness. The feeling he gained in the too ordinary work conversation can extract the subject matter that can be written from the daily life, isn't it a small thing, and no matter how big the problem is, it is not difficult to restore it to the daily trivialities. He didn't have time to do too much imagination now, so he first walked down the line of thought of Chu Yuan, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and he couldn't help but write it down. As soon as I started writing, I felt that the explanation was not strict at the beginning, monetary income, salary, monthly, signed a sum of money at once, and generally not a full amount of money was spent when it was spent, and there was no source of storage when all was consumed, that is, it was spent out of the river, whether it was spent today or tomorrow, or it could only be spent every other month, which had a direct impact on savings. Restrictions should be added to it, and restrictions should be added before the difference, that is, the word "necessary" should be added, for example, the remaining part of the grain, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea used to purchase the monthly needs can be deposited in the bank, so that it is modified into the difference between the people's monetary income and the necessary expenditure of money, the consumption structure is considered in conjunction with each other, and the number of words in the pen is also increasing rapidly, and there is a sense of formation, and the debut work is thus formed. And so the afternoon passed.
As soon as I got to work the next day, I revised and enriched the transcription clearly, and according to the information provided in the professional materials, I sent it to the signed leader and asked others to read it, and then forwarded it to Mr. Shi, who taught money classes at the banking school. Soon I received an enthusiastic letter from Mr. Shi and a letter from the head of the professional department to the teacher, which began by saying that you are high-footed, and he felt sincerely happy that he could write the article so quickly and be recognized and praised by authoritative people.
He handed it to Ren Dao along with the article and letter, and after Ren Dao read it quietly, he did not praise it, but said very seriously that it had to be changed. With this change, Wu Weicai saw Ren Dao's writing skills. After a long period of modification intermittently, no matter the layout and structure, the words and sentences are indeed renewed. Later, I moved to a new office building, observed the process of Ren Dao's revision, sat there and wrote and thought about it, muttering something from time to time, writing for a while and thinking for a while, and sometimes simply leaning my head back on the back of the chair to think about it. Perhaps it was Wu Wei's article that showed Ren Dao a new artistic conception of the essay and entered an unprecedented state of excitement.
Ren Dao's professional kung fu, especially the number of kung fu amazing, open a professional meeting, the savings figures of the sixteen counties, to be divided into the balance of the previous year, the current year's plan, the growth rate, the amount of growth, do not need to look at the printed table, you can come together, everyone is surprised, to the top of the meeting is the same practice, to attract the admiration of peers, enjoy a high reputation. I have handled countless written materials, but I have never written an academic paper, and I dare not think about it. Later, he told Wu Wei that he used to think that writing papers was a matter for professors and scholars, and he sighed that it was Wu Wei who brought him into the academic artistic conception, and writing papers was too different from writing professional reports. Unexpectedly, Wu Wei's debut novel became the debut of the two of them.
Ren Dao, the marriage was unsatisfactory, he originally married a beautiful wife but ran away with someone else, and later after he saw Song Rou, he also said to Wu Wei that it is not good to find a beautiful daughter-in-law. He is kind-hearted, soft-tempered and stubborn, easy to fight and hold grievances, he is already in his forties, and he writes ideological reports every year, but somehow, the organization just doesn't buy it and doesn't develop him. He is professionally comfortable, politically frustrated, and has a sense of depression, sometimes he is in a hurry to speak, and he stutters a little, and he can't tell if he is in a hurry, the more anxious he is, the more he stutters, his face is red, his mouth is crooked, his eyes are slanted, his face is deformed, and he walks with small broken steps to give people the feeling that he is slipping out on the ground, and he is not used to cadres who are engaged in political work, and he thinks that he is a whole person, and he is very close to Li, the elder of the credit section of the business basket.
Wu Wei likes theory, and has a debut novel, after the old Ren carefully revised and processed, in the name of the two of them in the provincial professional department of the journal published, he is not interested in bank savings and planning majors, he feels that those professional things have nothing to do, too boring, always deal with numbers, or the documents are submitted and issued, run errands to learn the tongue and the table, he likes esoteric theories, a year or two can not understand through, he is willing to spend time and energy, watch him sit there every day to read and write, but never publishedColleagues didn't see the papers he mailed out, but they saw a series of rejection letters.
The spring of 1980 came, the sun was extraordinarily bright, the thousand-year-old ice had been broken, the 10,000-year-old channel had been opened, and China's giant ship Yang Fan began a voyage that shocked the world. Wu Wei reads big newspapers, big periodicals, and big articles every day, and naturally feels the information of the times rushing to his face, infiltrated with the fresh spirit of the times, full of hope for the future, full of confidence in the future, and full of youthful vitality. Yunfei, who is 8 years older than him, said to him one afternoon that from the way you walk, you can see that you are full of hope and confidence in the future. Wu Wei smiled, how do you see it? Yunfei said with emotion, I stood in front of the window at noon and watched you come back from eating at your brother's house, and when you enter the courtyard, only people who are confident in the future can walk like that. Wu Wei said with a smile, I didn't expect you to see people through a walking posture.
Wu Wei went to the Furao County Bank on a business trip to finish his errands, and after eating in the cafeteria in the evening, he did not go home and went straight to Song Rou's dormitory. It was the first time that the two of them met in her dormitory, Wu Wei had graduated and had a decent job, and there was a strange feeling permeating, whether it was the atmosphere in the room or the natural induction of the two people sitting alone together at this time, they could only experience it slowly. She held a duster in her hand and said softly, You stand up. He stood up obediently, and she dusted off the back of his clothes and pants with a duster, and then turned to face her at close range, once in the past, when she was acting in a play in middle school. At this time, seeing her beautiful face, wearing beautiful clothes, good-looking figure, exuding a faint fragrance of hair, and the delicate hair brushing his face from time to time, he was a little intoxicated for a while, as if it was a continuation of the in-depth experience when acting and applying makeup that year, looking at her slender and soft white hands like fat, one holding a duster, and the other tugging at the corners of his clothes, and asked him with a smile, your clothes have never been dusted, right? It was as if the thin layer of separation between the two of their hearts was also gently brushed away by the beautiful slender hands, and a sweet feeling that she had never felt before came to his heart, he couldn't help but stretch out his hands and gently hug her, and she also responded, and he immediately let go of his arms with self-shame and mixed with the first shyness, and sat back a little unnaturally, looking at her and meeting her eyes looking at him, both of them seemed to want to dodge and a little reluctant, both understood each other, and smiled knowingly. Wu Wei has stored the kind of affection for her in the depths of his heart for many years, and after the heating up in front of him, it seems that he suddenly jumped up, and his body suddenly became hot, and at this moment, he was blocked by something, and in the face of her beauty, his heart surged up again. Although he has the confidence to persistently seek the truth, once he faces this beautiful girl next to him, he becomes a little weak again. He has achieved nothing in academics, and the setbacks he has constantly encountered in his social experience have made him a little self-doubtful, but he has become fragile in the face of her, and now he can only use himself to dedicate everything he dedicates to the society anyway, even if he lies under the nine springs, he can turn his eyes away and seek peace of mind. Self-confidence in life is like a seed buried deep in the ground, encountering the right soil to breed and exert force, want to drill out of the ground, but it may die because of congenital defects after drilling out of the ground can not withstand the wind, frost, snow and rain, or it may grow into a towering tree. A seed is a seed, not a big tree, but it can contribute plump fruits to withstand wind and cold.
At this time, he carefully looked at the indoor environment, looked at her again, met her eyes with him, wanted to dodge and attachment, vague, too late to freeze, he involuntarily reached out to hold her little hand, feeling steady, although she had a strong love for him, but her temperament was reserved, and the cadre's occupation made her more dignified, and her face appeared more plump and round, as if she was full of moisture. At this moment, someone knocked on the door to look for her, and said outside the door that the director had something to look for her and left, and the two of them had to reluctantly break up.
During this period, there began to be a fierce controversy over the surnames and surnames of the society. Some people say that practice is the only criterion for testing truth, and whether or not the truth is based on the effect of practice has become the best way to resolve disputes. The country opened up, Western films began to be screened, and the Chinese people saw an astonishing contrast: the East is inferior to the West, socialism is inferior to capitalism, East Germany is inferior to West Germany, North Korea is inferior to South Korea, the mainland is inferior to Taiwan, capitalism and the West, ideas and commodities have begun to pour into China like a tide, and there are often heated discussions in small closed departments and departments. Wu Wei was very naïve, thinking that there were no heroes in the American army, they were all greedy for life and afraid of death, and World War II relied on the sacrificial spirit of the Soviet Red Army and the New Fourth Army of the Eighth Route Army. Wu Wei summed up and sorted out from a historical point of view, the industrialization of the West started from the light textile industry, and China's industrialization road started from heavy industry, which decided to produce first and then live, to emphasize accumulation and light consumption, and to engage in construction without making people physically weak. History will make a very heavy problem lighter, and prolonging the time is the best way to dilute the problem and relieve the mood.
The bank was separated from the Agricultural Bank of China not long ago, one became two, which is equivalent to one set of institutions becoming two sets, and one set of people and soldiers being divided into two roads, and the future of work has become brighter, and everyone has no hope of promotion when they are crowded in a set of institutions, and there is no talk of retirement at the point, unless they survive until they die of illness and old age and struggle for a lifetime to withdraw and make room for position, and it is difficult to find a good opportunity in the agency for many years. There is a great opportunity to divide the family, so many vacant positions come out at once, the section member becomes the section chief, and the section chief with the ability and good reputation is expected to be promoted to the president. Splitting up is a bit like a dividend. The first separation brought some unpleasantness, and the separation made people become a little divided and gave birth to some calculations, but this was temporary, and it was quickly diluted by the expectation of promotion. Separation, the document says that it will help to improve the level of professional management, and the competition that accompanies the cross-business crossing, competition has become a fashionable word for a while, which can bring vitality, but that is what the state cares about, and everyone cares about their own career future. The scene was chaotic, office supplies and utensils were moving around, but everyone's mood was high, enthusiastic, and full, and the benefits of reform could be felt. Despite the shortage of manpower to get in the younger ones, they had to line up in the back, and they would not be able to take their turn for a while. There is another advantage to separating the family, it turns out that those who are not in tune with their tempers can be separated. When Wu Wei came to the bank, the family had already been divided, and Ren Dao was originally the deputy section chief, and the division made him promoted to section chief.
President Liu, a native of Hebei, an old-school cadre who returned from the south, looked a little bloated, with small eyes and often squinted, and spoke slowly and softly. Governor Li is medium-sized, well-proportioned, in his early fifties, very stylish, short and crisp, but his demeanor looks sloppy, with his arms open, revealing the messy shirt rubbed inside, riding a dilapidated bicycle that is casually placed without worrying about losing it, and naturally does not need to go to the bicycle management office of the Public Security Bureau to make a number. The two often come to their subordinates' offices, laughing with everyone, and chatting about some interesting anecdotes about the newly separated families. Yes, it's not just that the office is tense, a set of people is divided into two, office supplies and utensils are yours and mine, and the relationship immediately became tense, I have to take this and I need that. Some of them did not belong to the professional department of agriculture according to the principle of separation, but they also strongly requested to go to the Agricultural Bank, saying that although the Agricultural Bank often went to the countryside to work hard, the chicken, duck, fish, and meat were tender and easy to eat, and they went to eat. Yes, those who are hungry value food. Wu Wei is a newcomer in the workplace, and he doesn't even enjoy Yunfei and Guangfu, who are much older than him, and the dividend is too far away from him.
