Lao Hou came to the title recognition department of the Labor Bureau again, and this time he not only provided the staff with a technical report signed by Fang Hanmin alone, showed Fang Hanmin's national cadre recruitment notice, but also brought Fang Hanmin the award certificate of the first prize of the city's scientific and technological progress.

The staff looked at it, "I'll leave these materials first, and you go back and wait for the notice." ”

"When will the results be available?"

"It's hard to say, if the conditions are excellent, you can get the recognition in ten days and half a month, if the conditions are reluctant, it will be more troublesome, it is difficult to say in three or five months or a year and a half, and it may even fail to pass the certification in the end."

Fang Hanmin's conditions are too good! Under normal circumstances, the parties can generally only provide cadre preparation and technical reports or papers, according to the regulations, the professional title recognition agency will invite experts in the relevant field to be judges, the parties to report or defend the thesis, but Fang Hanmin has the blessing of the first prize of the Municipal Science and Technology Progress Award, in response to this situation, the professional title recognition agency decided to exempt the defense link, and the matter is naturally much simpler.

Ten days later, Hou Hou, the elder of the personnel department, received a notice that after strict review by the relevant agencies of the labor department, Fang Hanmin's title was determined to be assistant engineer, and he was asked to retrieve the title certificate and the relevant materials left before.

After Director Yuan learned the news, he immediately convened a meeting of the leadership team to inform the team members that Fang Hanmin's cadre establishment and technical title had been resolved, and issued a red-headed document to officially appoint Fang Hanmin as the technical section chief of Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory.

This news did not attract much attention, those who knew and paid attention to Fang Hanmin believed that Fang Hanmin was the acting head of the technical section, and in fact he was already the leader of the technical section, and now he just removed the pronoun in front of the title, and there was nothing to make a fuss about.

Fang Hanmin also didn't attach importance to this, this change did not seem to have had the slightest impact on his work and life, but from now on, Fang Hanmin not only became a national cadre within the establishment, but also had the title of assistant engineer, with the same identity as other scientific and technological personnel, for a young man with neither education nor qualifications, these changes fundamentally changed his identity.

After seeing the red-headed document issued by the factory on the formal appointment of Fang Hanmin as the head of the technical section, she took the opportunity to send newspapers and letters, and made a suggestion to Fang Hanmin again: "Section Chief Fang, you should move the office this time." ”

"Why?"

"If you had any concerns before, I can understand it, but now that the factory has officially appointed you as the technical section chief, according to the regulations, you should move into the section chief's office, otherwise, who will you give that office to? What a waste it would be for you to leave such a large office empty for a long time! ”

The clerk's words were not unreasonable, Fang Hanmin thought for a while, "Okay, I'll take the time to move over." ”......

This year's Spring Festival came relatively late, and the New Year was only celebrated on the 10th day of February in the solar calendar, and the approaching weekend was strung together, and the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory decided to take a three-day holiday for the Spring Festival.

According to the past practice, during the Spring Festival holiday, the staff of the technical department should be in a group of several people, taking turns on duty, Fang Hanmin received a formal appointment notice in the factory on January 20, which was the first Spring Festival after he took office as the head of the technical section, on duty on holidays, he decided to break the previous practice, not to arrange any old colleagues in the technical department on duty.

On the morning of the 26th day of the lunar month, the clerk Sister Chen received a call from the factory office to routinely count the list of personnel on duty during the Spring Festival holiday in each department, and it is said that other departments have reported the list.

Maybe Fang Hanmin didn't take the Spring Festival duty to heart, of course the clerk had no way of knowing, she came to Fang Hanmin's office and asked, "Section Chief Fang, the factory office just called and asked about the duty arrangements during the Spring Festival holiday, how should I reply?" ”

Fang Hanmin thought for a while, wrote a few words on a sticky note, and handed it to the clerk, "Just report this to the factory office." ”

The clerk took it and saw that there was only Fang Hanmin's own name on the list, and she was very surprised, "Section Chief, on a three-day holiday, how can you be on duty alone?" In previous years, there were several people in groups, and each group was on duty for one day. ”

"I know that the old rules can be changed. I think my old colleagues are older and have more family affairs, so I finally have a three-day holiday during the Spring Festival, so let them rest at home. ”

"Even if you don't have to be an old colleague on duty, isn't there still a young man in Corry? I can't let you work three days alone! ”

"Young people have to visit relatives and friends during the Spring Festival, and they don't have time, but ......, okay, let them be on duty with me." After thinking about it again, Fang Hanmin added the names of several young people in the scientific research team to the list just now.

Because Fang Hanmin's hometown built a new house in the second half of the year, he originally planned to go home for the Spring Festival this year, but a few days ago a letter of appointment in the factory, he completely changed his mind, Fang Hanmin has always paid attention to the leading role, if he let Corey's colleagues on duty, but he went back to his hometown for the Spring Festival, what would those old colleagues who were not convinced by him think?

Of course, even as the acting section chief, Fang Hanmin would choose to stay on duty during the Spring Festival, but after the official appointment notice was issued, he showed a stronger sense of responsibility.

In addition, there is another reason that prompts Fang Hanmin to prefer to stay on duty in the unit rather than go back to his hometown for the New Year. On May Day in the first half of the year, in order to meet his parents' wishes, Fang Hanmin had a blind date in his hometown, because he didn't plan to find a girlfriend in his hometown at all, thinking that it would be over if he walked around and dealt with the scene.

Unexpectedly, the girl named Xiaofeng wrote a letter to ask Fang Hanmin to give her an explanation, because she only had a one-sided relationship with her and didn't want to have anything to do with her, Fang Hanmin euphemistically expressed his rejection of her on the grounds that he was busy with work and had no time to fall in love, but Xiaofeng said that she could wait, which made Fang Hanmin very speechless, so he had to avoid seeing her and write a letter without replying to it. If he returned to his hometown during the Spring Festival, Xiaofeng asked to meet, but Fang Hanmin didn't know how to deal with it.

Therefore, Fang Hanmin felt that it was best not to go back, because time is the medicine to eliminate all troubles, as long as he continued not to contact the other party, after a long time, Xiaofeng might forget about him.

Not long ago, Fang Hanmin received a call from his girlfriend Yu Dongmei, they had a dispute over some things, the two were in a state of cold war, Yu Dongmei asked for time to meet him, Fang Hanmin was busy preparing technical appraisal materials, he told Yu Dongmei that it is estimated that there is no time before the year, and the matter between them will be postponed until the next year.

Fang Hanmin and Yu Dongmei got along for more than a year, with the deepening of the relationship, Fang Hanmin found that his interests and hobbies were far from Yu Dongmei, through calm analysis, he decided to terminate the relationship with Yu Dongmei, but Yu Dongmei resolutely did not agree to break up, since Fang Hanmin did not like her to dance with others, she promised to control her interests and hobbies in the future.

Fang Hanmin and Yu Dongmei were originally classmates in high school, although this is their reunion many years later, because of the relationship between old classmates, their emotional foundation is still good, in this more than a year of communication, Fang Hanmin has become more and more aware that Yu Dongmei is impeccable in character and appearance, and is a rare good girl.

But Fang Hanmin is very sensible, he has seen Yu Dongmei suppress his interests and hobbies in order to take care of his feelings, it is simply unbearable! Fang Hanmin has never been a selfish person, if Yu Dongmei deliberately gave up his interests and hobbies for him, Fang Hanmin would not be acceptable anyway, he thought that it would be too unfair to Dongmei! In order to respect each other's interests and hobbies, the best solution is for the two to only be friends, not lovers.

Yu Dongmei was emotional, she couldn't accept such a reality, Fang Hanmin felt helpless, so he could only stop meeting her for the time being, let her calm down, and then discuss their future with her calmly.

On the morning of the twenty-third day of the lunar month, the clerk retrieved the newspapers and letters of the technical department from the communication room, and saw a letter from Fang Hanmin among them, so he sent it to Fang Hanmin as soon as possible, "Section chief, this is a letter from your hometown. ”

Fang Hanmin took the letter and opened it to the effect that this Spring Festival, Fang Hanmin's parents especially wanted him to go home for the New Year, on the one hand, with Fang Hanmin's full funding, the hometown built a new house, although this is what Fang Hanmin should do for the family, but the family is still very grateful to him. In addition, because he couldn't get a reply from Fang Hanmin, Xiaofeng had asked the introducer to tell his parents that he must meet Fang Hanmin during the Spring Festival.

had no plans to go home for the New Year, but after reading this letter, he rushed to the difficult women's director Xiaofeng, and Fang Hanmin was even more determined not to go back. In order to let his parents know their decision as soon as possible, Fang Hanmin temporarily put down the work at hand, spread out the letter, and immediately replied to his hometown.

If you don't go back to your hometown for the New Year, you always have to give an excuse, and the most convincing reason for those rural people in your hometown is that the unit is busy with work and needs to work overtime. Of course, it may be a better reason to be newly promoted to the head of the technical section and need to take the lead on duty during the Chinese New Year, but Fang Hanmin, who has always been low-key, will never show off this kind of thing.

On the afternoon of the 28th of the lunar month, Fang Hanmin's two assistants, Guo Peng and Wan Cheng, came to look for him, and asked when they entered the door: "Section chief, we saw the list of Spring Festival duty personnel issued by the factory office, how many of us are in the technical department?" ”

"yes, there's me too, what? Do you guys have any ideas? ”

"No, no idea, it's just that our two children are very young, and we want to help take care of the children at home during the Spring Festival, you see...... Can you find someone to do it for us? After all, there are so many people in the technical department, and there is nothing going on at home for those old colleagues. ”

"No problem, I'll do it for you, as for those old colleagues, it has nothing to do with you, don't stare at them at work in the future."

In fact, Fang Hanmin wanted to be completely on duty during the Spring Festival at the beginning, he didn't consider his old colleagues at all, and reported the names of several young people, just to make up the numbers, because in the entire technical department, everyone else has a family, only Fang Hanmin is single, eats canteen three meals a day, and instead of staying in the dormitory during the holiday, it is better to be on duty in the unit.

As soon as Guo Peng and Wan Cheng were sent away, the phone on the table rang, Fang Hanmin picked it up, and heard the voice of a somewhat familiar but uncertain lady, "Is it the technical department of the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory?" ”

"Yes, this is the technical department of the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory, who are you looking for?"

"I'm looking for Fang Hanmin."

The voice became more and more familiar, and Fang Hanmin suddenly remembered, "Are you...... Song Yuping, right? ”

"That's right! You're Fang Hanmin, right? ”

After the two met on the "May Day" holiday, they exchanged letters two or three times, and this was the first time they made a phone call, so they were somewhat unfamiliar with each other's voices, but after listening to a few more words, they felt very familiar.
