If you have to make a summary of the layout of the Red Star Factory, then in the first phase of the project, in addition to the workshop, the largest building is probably the staff auditorium.

Unfortunately, the first phase of the project has not yet been completed, and the auditorium, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people to hold meetings at the same time, is still being built overtime there. In fact, the official start of the staff auditorium was only implemented after Uncle Ge, the southern Taishan Beidou in architectural design, arrived at the Red Star Factory.

Uncle Ge gave decisive guidance and design, and the most obvious change was that the planned capacity of 3,000 people soared to 10,000. According to Li Lu's requirements, it was designed as a huge three-dimensional five-pointed star.

Actually, it's the super version of the Red Star Pavilion.

However, according to his own advantages, Li Lu put forward many forward-looking requirements, and designed with reference to some functions of modern gymnasiums to achieve the purpose of multi-functional use.

The investment in the Red Star Staff Auditorium alone is estimated to be close to 100 million.

The staff hall has been built as a landmark building of the Red Star Factory.

Therefore, before the construction of this auditorium, the whole factory staff meeting was either held in the open air in the large playground or only in the workshop.

The first year-end summary meeting was held in the large playground in front of the No. 1 workshop.

In addition to the staff on duty in the provincial capital and Shanghai, the rest of the personnel have all gone home for the New Year. If we add the personnel of the construction engineering team, the establishment of the Hongxing Factory has approached 1,500 people, and the construction engineering team alone has more than 700 people.

The grand all-staff meeting began, but Li Lu did not attend.

At this moment, in a small restaurant on the side of the road near the Xicheng District Public Security Bureau, there are several low round tables outside, and the benches are small benches thirty centimeters high. Li Lu, Wan Shan, and Xiang Ping sat there drinking and chatting.

The boss came out with a pot of beef and put it in the middle, and while wiping his hands with a greasy towel on his shoulder, he said, "Third child, you eat first, I'll clean up and prepare to go back to the village for the New Year." ”

"Okay, Uncle Kang, you get busy first." The boss went to work.

At this time, there is only Li Lu as a guest.

"When I came back from the army a year ago, my first meal was eaten here, and Liang Hongbing, deputy director of the Xicheng Branch, invited him as a guest when he was the captain of the criminal police." Li Lu picked up the wine and clinked glasses with the two old comrades-in-arms.

"A year has passed in the blink of an eye, and looking back, it seems like yesterday." Li Lu said with a smile.

Xiang Ping said, "Lao Li, you feel it." Isn't life just like that. ”

Li Lu waved his hand and said, "Let's get down to business." ”

Wan Shan said, "The veterans of our company, those who meet the requirements, and those who can be found, are only three." ”

Xiang Ping smiled and said, "But there is good news, those three people are all veterans, and they are better than what you asked." ”

"Their situation has been clarified, just waiting for your next instructions." Wan Shan ate a piece of beef and said.

After taking a sip of wine, Li Lu said, "After the New Year, let's find people one by one." The day after tomorrow, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, you can only rest for two days. On the second day of the Lunar New Year, I went to Lugang University to report for a one-month English training course, which was specially established for the two of you. ”

"Can you find a translator?" Wan Shan was stunned for a moment and said.

Xiang Ping didn't wait for Li Lu to speak, and asked Wan Shan, "Where can you find a qualified translator?" ”

Wan Shan suddenly spoke.

Li Lu said, "It doesn't hurt to learn more. From now on, English will become the language you use very frequently, and if you don't learn it well, it will delay things. Even if you have time, learn a few more foreign languages, it would be better. ”

Wan Shan said with a bitter face, "Squad leader, you can spare me." ”

Hehe smiled, Li Lu said, "That's it." After a month, I will check your level, and if I can't be satisfied, you don't go out, I'll let Uncle Nine and them go. ”

"Don't!" Xiang Ping hurriedly waved his hand, "No need, we can do it." ”

"That's for the best." Li Lu said.

Wan Shan hesitated for a moment and said, "Squad leader, there is a person, I think he is very suitable." ”

"Who?" Li Lu was a little surprised that Wan Shan took the initiative to recommend candidates, he had always just shot.

Wan Shan pointed in the direction of the new Guangming Factory, "Liu Xiangyang of the Guangming Factory." Didn't that kid go to the battlefield before, some time ago in the militia training, I specially tested him, his military quality is very good, very talented. ”

"He?" Li Lu was really surprised, he definitely didn't expect that Liu Xiangyang would be a suitable candidate, suddenly thinking of something, Li Lu suddenly smiled, "Do you think he understands English and can also be a translator?" ”

Wan Shan laughed.

Li Lu thought about it seriously and said uncertainly, "In this way, his qualities in all aspects do meet the requirements, but this person's family background is not simple, and his family may not be able to agree with him to go out." ”

Xiang Ping smiled and said, "Lao Li, you don't have to worry about this. In fact, it was Liu Xiangyang who offered to go out with us. But don't worry, he only knows that he is going to war, and we haven't said anything more specifically. ”

After thinking for a moment, Li Lu nodded slowly, "If there is no resistance, you can include him." ”

"Great." Wan Shan was very excited, in his opinion, Liu Xiangyang was a talisman, if he failed to learn English.

Li Lu and his two old comrades-in-arms touched the cup and took a big sip, their expressions gradually became serious, and they said in a deep voice, "Overseas things are very, very important, and in the short term, the only fastest way I can think of to open up sales is to let our products withstand actual combat testing." I don't want to take care of some miscellaneous businesses in China, and those things don't have a lot of meaning. The most important thing is the Red Star Factory, whether the products of the Red Star Factory can go out smoothly, you have a great responsibility on your shoulders. ”

He paused and said, "None of the products in the transactions with the Iranian Puda Company and the Iraqi Dharam Company are produced by the Red Star Factory. In the eyes of others, they will think that the Red Star Factory is amazing, but in fact, we know what is going on. Our Red Star Factory is just a middleman used by Red Star Defense to change hands. ”

Li Lu said, "The establishment of the two of you in the new Guangming Factory will not change in the short term, in order to facilitate the work in China." If you want to explain to your family, use this identity. ”

Xiang Ping spread his hands and said, "There is nothing to explain, everything at home has been arranged, and the Wanshan family has also been arranged, and there are no problems." ”

"That's good." Li Lu nodded slightly, "Over there in the Bright Militia Battalion, pay attention to it, and focus on cultivating a few seedlings." The militia battalion had to be trained as a regular army in case of emergency. ”

"Understood."
