Chapter 25 Transformation is the Quiet One

The director of the stone factory turned out to be a cadre in the ministry, and three years ago he was sent to the grassroots level to become the director of the Xiangyang Chemical Plant.

His wife, who is one of the country's leading experts in translating weapons materials, is still working in the ministry, so the couple can only live separately for the time being.

The reason why Director Shi brought his daughter Shi Yueshuang here was to let her relax in this quiet place in northern Xinjiang.

The daughter has been among the best in the school in the capital since she was a child, and she usually reads quietly at home, and because of her mother, Shi Yueshuang's foreign language is much better than her peers.

More than a year after arriving at the Xiangyang Chemical Plant, there was one thing that hit Shi Yueshuang hard, that is, the country reopened the college entrance examination. If it weren't for polio, Shi Yueshuang would be sitting in a classroom at a major university right now.

Shi Yueshuang became silent, even autistic, and locked herself in her room all day long to read.

This time, the factory set up a factory for the disabled, and Director Shi encouraged his daughter to come out to work, of course, not for the thirty or so yuan, he just hoped that his daughter would go out of the house and socialize more with young people to become more cheerful.

Seeing the smile on his daughter's face getting bigger and bigger day by day, Director Shi was very happy.

But now with a big front door where his daughter is honoring him, there is something wrong in his heart.

"We workers have the strength to work every day......

This sonorous song sings of the pride of the working class in this society.

As a cadre sent down from above, the director of the stone factory keenly felt that society was slowly changing. More than 70 yuan a month, a skilled old worker in a state-owned factory can't earn so much.

For twenty or thirty years, tens of millions of workers in this country have been paid meager wages, and there is nothing left but to support their families, but they rely on their hard work to support the country.

Foreigners call these people blue ants, which is an admiration for Chinese workers!

But now a worker in a small factory with a disabled person attached to the Xiangyang Chemical Plant can get more than 70 yuan a month.

As the leader of a large state-owned factory, the director of the stone factory was faintly uneasy.

This is what they earn with overtime pay, and the director of the stone factory comforts himself in his heart.

The end of the year is the busiest time for factory leaders, to make a year's work summary, report the list of ministerial-level model workers, to carry out evaluation, and evaluate factory-level model workers and outstanding labor collectives.

Wang Weidong went to the office of the deputy factory director.

"Director Fang, the chemical factory has provided so much help to our small factory in the past few months, and all the employees of our disabled factory held a meeting and unanimously decided to give 50 radios as prizes to the model workers in the factory." Wang Weidong said.

Over the years, the factory's rewards for model workers are vests, tea pots, mirrors, kettles and the like, and the workers do not feel that the rewards are low, because they value honor more!

Of course, there are better rewards, so much the better.

Now Wang Weidong came here and offered to provide 50 radios to the factory free of charge, and Deputy Factory Director Fang was very surprised and even more happy when he heard it.

"Weidong, you're doing the right thing! You young people are all the children of our Xiangyang Chemical Factory, just like our elders' own children! Especially since you are all disabled youth, helping you is what we should do! But you are worthy of being the children of Xiangyang Chemical Factory, it is really rare to be so selfless! Deputy Director Fang praised.

Wang Weidong also conducted a competition in a small factory with only eight people, two girls, Shi Yueshuang and Chen Jihong, were the 38 Red Flag Bearers, and Liu Jianguo, Bao Qihang and other five people were model workers, but he was not.

Wang Weidong ingeniously bought seven big pig heads in the Beeshan County Farmers' Market and distributed them to everyone as prizes.

"Let's not forget to study after work!" Wang Weidong said.

After New Year's Day, the Spring Festival will be celebrated in less than a month, but for everyone, the Spring Festival is just a three-day holiday, and it will pass quickly.

Shortly after the Spring Festival, Deputy Director Fang took Wang Weidong to his office.

"Weidong, there are forty or fifty disabled young people in our factory, most of them had concerns in their hearts when your factory was first established and did not sign up, but now they have figured it out and have found me and asked to enter your radio factory, what should you do about this matter?" Deputy Director Fang asked with a smile.

Almost every day these days, young people with disabilities and their parents come to his house to ask to enter the radio factory, and even some able-bodied unemployed young people also find their homes, which makes Fang Huawen very troubled and even more unbearable.

"Director Fang, you participated in the formulation of the production plan last year, and the production raw materials were allocated according to the number of these people, and if they were allowed to enter the factory now, they would have nothing to do." When we make the next year's production plan in October, we will increase the production plan, and I will definitely let them into the factory! Wang Weidong said.

"What you say makes sense, so do it!" Fang Huawen nodded and said.

As long as there is an explanation for those people, it doesn't matter if it's later.

In February, there was a sudden outbreak of fighting in the southwest, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The production tasks of the Xiangyang Chemical Plant have also suddenly increased, and overtime has become commonplace.

Two months later, the ministry issued a document allowing the Xiangyang Chemical Plant to increase the number of regular workers by 200, and the unemployed young people happily passed on the good news, and soon most of them changed their identities to become regular workers at the Xiangyang Chemical Plant.

Even so, the Xiangyang Chemical Plant is still busy, and at night the production area is lit up and the lathes rumble in the workshop.

Wang Weidong ordered several newspapers and magazines for the radio factory, and the others were mainly concerned with war affairs, while Wang Weidong was concerned with changes in state policy.

In October, the radio factory drew up a plan to produce 40,000 radios, and the Xiangyang Chemical Plant gave up another 500 square meters of building for the production and warehouse of the radio factory.

A month later, when the electronic components were distributed, more than 20 disabled young children from the Xiangyang Chemical Factory entered the factory, and now the number of employees in the factory has reached more than 30.

In November, Wang Weidong finally saw an article in the state's most authoritative newspaper discussing township enterprises.

In the evening, Wang Weidong was found at home by his mother again, and on the way home, Li Yufeng complained with an ugly face: "Giving birth to children is a debt in the previous life!" There is no way, now the times have changed, the arms of parents are getting thinner and thinner, the thighs of children are getting thicker and thicker, and the arms can't twist the thighs! Your eldest brother has to marry that named Xiaomei, your father can't help at all, I really can't stand it alone, today the whole family is together to discuss your eldest brother's marriage. ”

"My brother's marriage is his business, I don't have any money!" Wang Weidong said angrily.
