Chapter Ninety-Three: The Power of Language
After the two old men left, Wang Weidong called Ou Xiaoyang and told Ou Xiaoyang the news that the leaders of Xiangyang Chemical Plant had arrived in Harbin City.
Ou Xiaoyang immediately rushed to the factory.
"Do you two want to go to the hotel tomorrow to see them?" Ou Xiaoyang asked.
"You don't have to go, you have to keep your attitude that you don't want to transfer, and when they offer to meet with you, you reluctantly meet with the people at the Xiangyang Chemical Plant. I'll go and see them alone. Wang Weidong replied.
"Okay, I'll keep a high profile, I sing white face, you sing red face." Ou Xiaoyang said.
"But you can't transfer without nodding. The two of us repeatedly pulled them to get the highest transfer fee. Wang Weidong said.
The two discussed for more than an hour, and Ou Xiaoyang left.
At nine o'clock in the evening, Wang Weidong heard a knock on the door again, and he opened the big iron door to find that Chen Jihong was standing outside.
"Come in, these old men and old ladies have taken up all the space in the house." Wang Weidong said helplessly.
The next morning, after the workers arrived at the factory, Wang Weidong rushed to the hotel where Director Lu was staying after arranging production. This hotel is the hotel where Wang Weidong lived when he got married, but it was renamed again in 83 years, and it is now called Harbin Hotel.
Seeing Deputy Director Fang Wang Weidong was like seeing a relative he hadn't seen for a long time, holding Deputy Director Fang's hand tightly.
"Uncle Fang!" Wang Weidong said with emotion.
"Wei Dong, how long has it been since the two of us have seen each other? Your grandfather is still my master, and you kid won't go to see me when he comes home! Deputy Director Fang said reproachfully.
When the radio factory was first established, Wang Weidong went to the house of the deputy director of Fang, at that time, the deputy director of the factory was only perfunctory, and did not go to the factory office meeting to propose the establishment of the radio factory, and later because Liu Jianguo pretended to be his mother at the suggestion of Wang Weidong and wrote directly to the ministry, which was valued by the leaders of the ministry, and the director of the stone factory nodded and agreed to the establishment of the radio factory.
At the beginning, Wang Weidong was in the palm of his hand, so Deputy Director Fang didn't take Wang Weidong in his eyes at all, and the reason why he finally agreed to set up a radio factory was also because of the pressure from above, which is what people like Deputy Director Fang really cared about.
Now Wang Weidong has jumped out of the palm of a person like Deputy Director Fang, and in turn has a request for Wang Weidong, so the words spoken by Deputy Director Fang are full of feelings for the elders.
"I've been too busy for the past two years, and I haven't gone home for the New Year." Wang Weidong said. And that's true.
Deputy Director Fang immediately realized that he was not the protagonist when he came to Harbin City this time, and hurriedly said: "Director Lu of our chemical plant is here, I will lead you to see him now." ”
Walked to the door of the room where Director Lu lived and knocked on the door, the door was opened by Director Lu's secretary, who lived in another room and got up early to help in Director Lu's room.
"Director Lu is washing his face and brushing his teeth in the bathroom." The secretary said.
Deputy Director Fang led Wang Weidong into the room and sat on the sofa, and the secretary walked to the side of the bed to fold the quilt and make the bed. These things are done by the people in the hotel, even if they see that they have been sorted out, they will rearrange them.
The secretary also knew the rules of the hotel, but he still did it, and he had to do these things in front of the leader.
Ten minutes later, Director Lu walked out of the bathroom with wet hair.
Deputy Director Fang and Wang Weidong both stood up.
"Director Lu, this is Wang Weidong, his grandfather is actually my master!" Deputy Director Fang said. He put one hand on Wang Weidong's shoulder, as if he was hugging his child.
Director Lu hurriedly stepped forward and held Wang Weidong's hand and said: "It's not easy to see Weidong, I came in a car with your parents yesterday, I chatted with your father all the way, and the more I talked, the more I fell in love!" ”
Leaders can speak, and what Director Lu said made Wang Weidong have to express his gratitude.
"I already heard from my parents last night, so I came this morning to express my gratitude to the leader! The four old people are going crazy thinking about their children, thank you Director Lu for bringing them here. Wang Weidong said.
"What is this! They are all old workers of Xiangyang Chemical Factory, who have made a lifetime contribution to the factory, and it is not worth mentioning that we do this! Director Lu waved his hand and said.
The atmosphere in the whole room was harmonious, and the four of them were full of smiles on their faces.
"After the leaders have cleaned up, I will invite everyone to eat downstairs, I am very familiar with this place." Wang Weidong said.
After exchanging glances between Director Lu and Deputy Director Fang, Director Lu patted his thigh and said, "Okay, let Wang Weidong, a child of Xiangyang Chemical Factory who started a business outside, invite us to a meal!" ”
This historic guesthouse in Harbin has been gradually reviving its tradition since the 80s, offering some Western food.
Walking into the restaurant, Wang Weidong asked, "What do the leaders want to eat?" There are buns and bread and milk. ”
"Buns and porridge, I really can't digest milk in my stomach." Director Lu said.
Deputy Director Fang and secretary also Xiao Gui Cao followed Director Lu to eat steamed buns and porridge.
Of course, Wang Weidong can't be special, he wants to leave a good impression on Director Lu.
The four of them chatted while eating.
"Weidong, Xiangyang Chemical Factory is about to be converted to civilian property, this is a great opportunity for personal development, come back, the future of the chemical plant depends on you young people!" Director Lu said.
"After all, I also grew up in the Xiangyang Chemical Factory, but I was completely delayed, and there was less ink in my stomach, so what could I do even if I went back." Wang Weidong looked hesitant.
"Knowledge is important, but we can't do it alone! Knowledge does not mean ability, you did a good job when the radio factory was subordinate to the chemical plant, and there will be room for you to play when you go back in the future! Director Lu said with a smile.
"Weidong, why did you forget me! My education is that I graduated from elementary school, and you weren't born when I was your grandfather's apprentice! Aren't I also a deputy factory director now? I see you're better than I was in my twenties! Deputy Director Fang said.
The two leaders spoke reasonably, approachably and inspiringly, and the young people of the 80s had already been inspired by this situation.
But Wang Weidong didn't, but his expression was like waiting for the two leaders to give him explosives bags, and then he jumped out of the trench and fought desperately with the enemy.
"Listening to the words of the two leaders is better than reading a book for ten years!" Wang Weidong said.
Director Lu and Deputy Director Fang both laughed when they heard this.
The secretary has been watching coldly, and at this time he thought: Wang Weidong, this kid is really a good seedling to be a secretary! If he is literate, he is really a strong competitor of his own.
After eating breakfast and returning to the room, Director Lu said to Wang Weidong: "Weidong, I hope I can get the things done with the radio factory this time!" It is hoped that at least five hundred or more workers can be transferred to the radio plant at a time, and if it is a thousand, it would be better. That's where you need to coordinate help! Director Lu said.
