The end of the year is busy, and all workshops are busy buying things for employees and sending New Year's goods.

The efficiency of the Red Star Gear Factory this year is very good, although the housing problems of the workers are still tight, when the factory has its own small treasury surplus, meat, eggs and fish are still available.

With Duan Yun's net worth now, he actually can't look down on this little benefit from the factory, but for the other workers in the factory, it is enough for them to have a happy New Year.

In this regard, Duan Yun also thought of a few young workers in his workshop early in the morning, he had already settled down with Cao Dong, but whenever something was sent in the factory, the workshop must also be sent, and it must be doubled, for example, no one in the factory will send three catties of fish, and Duan Yun will send six catties, and it must be the best and freshest!

In fact, the young workers in the workshop earned several times more money than the wages in the factory on Duan Yun's side, and now they have a lot of spare money in their hands, so they may not be able to see Duan Yunfa's little thing, Duan Yun did this, in fact, it was just to let them have face in front of their families, after all, these young workers left the factory without pay and stayed on duty, and they were also under the huge pressure from their families and the eyes of outsiders, thinking that they were smashing their own iron rice bowls, and they were not doing their jobs!

As soon as Duan Yun returned to the department, he was called to the office of Chang Lin, the chief engineer, before he could say a few words to the colleague who had stepped forward to greet him.

Now Duan Yun has become the deputy chief of the technical department, and Cheng Changlin is his direct leader, and the relationship between the two has also begun to ease rapidly with the successful development of the gear hobbing machine by Duan Yun last time, and Cheng Changlin even took the initiative to invite Duan Yun to his house as a guest.

However, Duan Yun and Cheng Changlin have never communicated with each other, at the beginning Cheng Changlin even had a very serious prejudice against Duan Yun, and later because of the technical problems of the gear hobbing machine, the two communicated frequently in the workshop, but basically they were technical things, and private matters were basically not discussed.

"Chief Engineer Cheng, are you looking for me?" Although when he went to Cheng Qingyan's house, Duan Yun also called Cheng Changlin Uncle Cheng, but in the unit, in order to avoid suspicion, Duan Yun called him by his position.

"Sit down. Cheng Changlin moved a chair for Duan Yun and motioned for Duan Yun to sit across from his desk.

"Chief Engineer Cheng smokes. Duan Yun smiled and took out a cigarette and handed it to Cheng Changlin.

"I'm thin, and I'm dark......" After Cheng Changlin took the cigarette from Duan Yun's hand, he looked at Duan Yun for a while, and then said: "It seems that you have worked very hard during this time in the automobile factory." ”

"No way, when I went, Director Rui gave more tasks, it was millions of dollars of foreign exchange to buy equipment, if there was a problem, I wouldn't have to mix it in the factory in the future." Duan Yun said with a wry smile.

"I understand now, you are so young and talented, and that is also the result of hardship...... You have a bright future now, this time the task of the automobile factory has been successfully completed, and you will definitely receive the ...... reused by your superiors in the future" Cheng Changlin lit the cigarette in his hand and looked directly at Duan Yun and said.

"I'm just a translator who knows a little bit about technology, and this time I went to the car factory, mainly as a translator. Duan Yun said with a smile.

"Translation?" Cheng Changlin shook his head with a smile and said: "About your deeds in the automobile factory, now everyone in the factory already knows, yesterday there was a photo of you and several leaders on the front page of the newspaper, and there is also an internal reference in the ministry, and your name is also mentioned, it seems that you went to the automobile factory to support this time, and you are in the limelight......

"That's because Director Rui saw that I was working hard, so he praised me a few words in front of the leaders of the department, that's all. Duan Yun replied lightly.

"It's rare that you can see yourself clearly and not float in front of honor!" Cheng Changlin nodded approvingly when he heard this, and then said to Duan Yun in a calm tone: "Actually, those of us who are engaged in technical work, we must always remember what we rely on for food, you are a technical genius, I must admit this now, even if I have strong self-esteem, I don't like to admit that others are better than me......"

"Hehe, Chief Engineer Cheng, I'm a little ashamed to say that, in the end, it's just that I'm a little luckier, and technically, I still need to learn a lot from you......" Duan Yun heard that Cheng Changlin was talking to himself this time, although Duan Yun's skills were indeed much stronger than Cheng Changlin, but he still needed to remain humble.

"Okay, you don't have to be modest, how is your technology, even if I don't want to admit it, after several major technical changes, the whole factory can see it ......clearly" Cheng Changlin paused, and then said: " Speaking of us, the people who engage in technology, basically rely on technology as a springboard in the early stage and finally take the road of political work, which is right, but not everyone is suitable for this road, the water in it is too deep, and there are a lot of network resources needed...... Your skills are good, so I hope you don't waste them in terms of technology, and that's your biggest hole card......"

"Thank you Chief Engineer Cheng for reminding me, I will remember it!" Duan Yun nodded and said.

The meaning of Cheng Changlin's words is actually very simple, that is, in his opinion, Duan Yun's family background is average, and he does not have any relatives and stable backers in the factory, only has excellent technical ability, so it is most secure to rely on technology to eat.

"Also, there's one more thing I want to remind you. ”

"What's the matter?"

"I know that Secretary Zhao was very good to you before, and if you can get to where you are today, he has indeed helped you do a lot of things......" Cheng Changlin pondered for a while, and then said: "But in the future, it's better for you to stay away from him." ”

"Why?" Duan Yun frowned when he heard this.

"You probably don't know yet, Secretary Zhao is about to retire, and the ministry has issued a document asking the over-aged leading cadres to go through the retirement procedures as soon as possible, but Lao Zhao still refuses to let go of power, he is old, and he is so greedy for power, but even if he wants to hold on, he can't last long...... Cheng Changlin paused, and then said: "In addition, I heard the rumors that from next year, the ministry will begin to reform our enterprise, separate government from enterprise, and fully implement the factory director responsibility system...... I think you also know that there is a gap between Secretary Zhao and Director Qin, you used to be from Secretary Zhao's side, but now Director Qin also appreciates you, so you should take advantage of this time to stand in line again, cut off all contacts with Zhao Dongsheng, and make amends, everything is still too late......"

"That's enough!" Duan Yun interrupted Cheng Changlin's words, frowned and said: "Chief Engineer Cheng, I have always respected you, but please don't comment on Secretary Zhao like this! In addition, Secretary Zhao is my nobleman, I can't do the thing of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, even if he Qin Factory Director looks uncomfortable, I will still listen to Secretary Zhao's words and maintain a normal working relationship with him, there is nothing to say about this!"
