December 31, 1981, is the last day of the Gregorian calendar year, and it is also a day worth remembering by all the officers and men of Post 251.

Because early this morning, the camp was on a program-controlled phone!

Except for the people who were on patrol at this time, everyone who stayed in the camp had a good time!

Of course, their family members had already been notified by the army to wait at the local post and telecommunications office - after all, the 251 post had all programmed telephones, but they didn't have them at home, and they had to go to the post and telecommunications office.

As we all know, border posts never take a vacation, whether it is December 31 or even Chinese New Year's Eve, the tasks of the motherland's border defense always need them, and they cannot be absent for a moment.

Therefore, these soldiers who have no way to go home for the New Year can clearly hear the voice on the phone, whether it is their father, mother, or older brothers and sisters, younger brothers and sisters, they are all so kind and exciting.

So much so that every comrade's one-minute call time makes people feel so short!

A number of reporters from the Military Daily, the Baya Branch of the Xinhua News Agency, Nanyun Daily, and Tianhe Daily seized the opportunity to press the camera shutter button in their hands to record this historical moment.

I dare not say that it is the first in the country, but at least in the southwestern border of the motherland, the first-line border outpost, the 251 outpost, is definitely the first outpost with a program-controlled telephone!

This matter is enough to be worth writing about, and the most important thing is that it is not handled by the military, nor is it handled by local investment, but by a fertilizer factory in Shanping County, Tianhe Province, thousands of miles away!

As the protagonist of the call ceremony and the initiator of the initiation of this event, Zhong Bai, deputy director of Shanping County Fertilizer Factory, naturally accepted a joint interview with all reporters.

"Director Zhong, the provision of a program-controlled telephone to Post 251 for free has created a lot of precedents, I want to know, what is the original intention of your factory to do this?" A reporter from Nanyun Daily preemptively asked.

"Actually, it's very simple, I'm afraid you won't believe it." Zhong Bai smiled slightly: "When I came to participate in the signing of the special fertilizer intention agreement between our Provincial Chemical Research Institute and the 35th Division, I wanted to take the time to see what the most remote and difficult outpost in Baya City looked like, and what the conditions and mental outlook of the soldiers here were. ”

"Then I came to the No. 251 outpost, and when I learned that their civilian communication conditions were very inconvenient, I was thinking about one thing, these loveliest people are waiting at the border day and night for the border security of our motherland, don't they miss their families?"

"Of course they want to! So I immediately made a bold decision, to let our factory provide free money to help them install a civilian program-controlled telephone, so that our soldiers can have a higher morale at the outpost to defend their homeland and the country! ”

"Of course, after I went back, I reported to the factory, but it was not a decision I made by patting my head alone, it was against the rules. This is an additional explanation, please do not include it in the report or press release, thank you. ”

After Zhong Bai added the last sentence of explanation, it immediately attracted good-natured laughter from reporters, and everyone not only complied with this small request made by Zhong Bai just now, but also had sincere admiration for this young and promising young deputy factory director.

is only in his early twenties, not only has he been unusually promoted to become a deputy factory director, but he is also said to be the core researcher of KCO special nitrogenous fertilizer!

Two days ago, he personally asked Ying, together with the personnel specially sent by the 35th Division to transport KCO's special nitrogen-containing fertilizer, from Shanping County, Tianhe Province all the way to a 48-hour long journey, first changed trains and then took a military transport plane, and then changed cars after getting off the plane, and rushed to Baya City as soon as possible, and went to the 251 outpost early the next morning, just to witness the moment of the successful call!

Journalists were given more and more information in the constant interviews, but then they were more and more surprised.

This deputy director is obviously not just a matter of technology to participate in the development of KCO's special nitrogen-containing fertilizer.

What's more, many of the ideas he put forward are refreshing.

For example, "enterprises should have a sense of social responsibility and national honor, and not ignore them because of the size", such as "I don't think there is anything great about donating and installing telephones, didn't it also publicize the name of our Shanping County Fertilizer Factory through your media", and what "This is a military-civilian cooperation project, yes, some of the content is also secret, but you don't involve certain keywords when you report, and I am grateful to help publicize our factory......"

These new ideas filled Zhong Bai's dialogues, refreshing the reporters' three views, and also making them deeply feel why Zhong Bai could do such an awesome thing while others couldn't.

This man is a genius!

And at the end of the interview, Zhong Bai also repeatedly emphasized to them that he must not mention his Zhong Bai's name in the report, if he had to write, then replace it with "a young deputy director of a fertilizer factory", which seemed wise and low-key.

At noon, everyone naturally ate a big pot of rice at the outpost.

But today because it is a big day, the cooks also take special care of friends from afar, in addition to the daily soldiers' favorite meals, and deliberately ingenious to get fresh wild chicken fir fungus, come to a "chicken fir fungus feast"!

What fried chicken fir mushrooms, chicken fir mushroom soup, fried chicken fir mushrooms, pickled chicken fir mushrooms, fried chicken fir mushrooms, steamed chicken fir mushrooms...... It's dizzying and appetizing!

Zhong Bai was also not polite, his stomach was full, and Guan Linjian, who came to accompany him, laughed: "Haha! This time is completely different from last time, Zhong Bai! I still remember that time when you landed on a plane, you were so empty that you didn't want to eat anything, why do I see what you are eating this time? ”

"That's the first time I've come back." Zhong Bai was not polite, and picked up a large piece of chicken fir fungus with chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth, this time he said with a smile: "Now it's the second time I've come, wouldn't it be a shame if I don't adapt to the soil again?" Besides, isn't that old saying well, there is a problem with eating and not working actively, this time the installation of program-controlled telephones at post 251 is also the last important work of the year in our factory, I don't want such an important work to be criticized by the organization, don't you say? ”

Before Guan Linjian could speak, Pu Xin, section chief of the Baya City Post and Telecommunications Bureau on the side, took the initiative to give a thumbs up: "Director Zhong, I also have to thank you on behalf of the Municipal Post and Telecommunications Bureau. ”
