Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1284 German Translation
At the beginning of March, Duan Yun, his younger sister Duan Fang and Li Yun, who had gone through the formalities for going abroad, boarded a passenger plane to Berlin, Germany.

In addition to the three of them, Wang Shi also specially found a student who had studied in Germany for the officials, named Chen Tiesheng. He was paid 400 yuan a day. Serve as a translator.

At this time, there is no direct flight from Guangzhou to Germany, and it is necessary to transfer from BJ, which is bound to be a long journey.

However, Duan Fang and Li Yun seemed very excited, especially Duan Fang. This was her first time going abroad. Before that, she never thought that one day she would go abroad.

In the early and mid-80s, if you wanted to go abroad, you had to obtain the signature and permission of the provincial leaders before you could buy an air ticket. However, by the end of the 80s, more and more people went abroad at their own expense. Going abroad through this channel, as long as you have certain assets or a rich guarantor, you can get a passport for going abroad.

Duan Yun gave up the seat by the window to her younger sister Duan Fang. She sat with Li Yun. The moment the plane took off, her little face showed uncontrollable excitement.

Duan Yun and Chen Tiesheng were sitting in the back row, chatting with ease.

Chen Tiesheng was sent by the government to study in Germany in the early 80s. He is now in his early 30s. He took a train instead of a plane, because at that time a ticket to Germany was 10 times the price of a train ticket. Chen Tiesheng could only obey the government. s arrangement.

The train at the railway station traveled for 8 days and 8 nights, passing through Outer Mongolia, the Soviet Union, and Poland. There was only 300 marks allocated by the state, and the money was not spent casually, because the train could only reach the socialist ruble area in the end. , that is, East Berlin, and finally entered West Berlin, the distance is still relatively long, and 300 marks may not be enough.

Most people of the older generation have been exposed to Russian, and Chen Tiesheng is no exception. His Russian and German skills are very good, and he studied mechanical processing in West Germany, and has a certain mechanical processing technology theory.

After returning to China, Chen Tiesheng worked as a technical director in a large state-owned enterprise. Due to his low income, he finally gave up his job in a state-owned enterprise and came to Shenzhen to go to sea.

When Duan Yun learned that Chen Tiesheng knew both foreign languages ​​and machinery, he immediately offered to invite him to work in his company.

Duan Yun originally thought that Chen Tiesheng might shirk, but to his surprise, Chen Tiesheng agreed almost without thinking, which made Duan Yun feel very pleasantly surprised.

In fact, Duan Yun’s reputation is well-known in Shenzhen, and their company’s technical personnel are paid very high, even higher than those of foreign joint ventures. Over the years, the strategy of buying horse bones with a lot of money has made Tianyin Electronics Factory a place that many senior talents yearn for. Since joining the company, Chen Tiesheng, who was originally yearning for Tianyin Electronics Factory, agreed to Duan Yun's invitation almost without hesitation.

In fact, Duan Yun did not invite others casually, because there are very few foreign language talents, especially those who have studied abroad, and after chatting with Chen Tiesheng just now, Duan Yun found that he does have very high mechanical theoretical knowledge , It is indeed rare to have such a talent who knows both foreign languages ​​and machinery.

Duan Yun once wanted to engage in the research and development of automobile gearboxes in the early days, but the reality gave him a blow. The country has never opened up private enterprises to enter the automobile industry, and all aspects have blocked his way. So after leaving the Red Star Gear Factory, Duan Yun started There is no chance to get in touch with the auto industry.

But not doing it now does not mean that Duan Yun will really stay away from the auto machinery industry. He is still waiting for two opportunities. One is that after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, a large number of heavy industry talents have meager income, which is the best opportunity to poach industrial talents from the former Soviet Union. Chen Tiesheng knows Russian and understands technology, so there is naturally something he can use.

The other is to wait until after the 90s when the state allows private companies to enter the auto industry. At this time, Duan Yun can make a difference.

However, in the next few years, Duan Yun's entrepreneurial direction is mainly in the chip industry. Now is the best time to develop the domestic chip industry. He must not let go of this most important opportunity in his life.

After arriving in BJ, he stayed for a few hours to change planes, and then flew for another 19 and a half hours. Finally, Duan Yun’s plane landed safely at West Berlin Airport in Germany.

At this time, there was only one year left before the Berlin Wall was torn down, but the streets of West Berlin still seemed very peaceful.

The time difference between Germany and China is 6 hours. After Duan Yun and his party got off the plane, the first thing they did was find a hotel to settle down and prepare to rest for a while. hard work.

However, Duan Fang still seemed very excited and full of energy. She herself is a girl who can endure hardships and is full of energy. In addition, it was the first time she set foot on a foreign land, so she didn't feel any tiredness at all.

That night, Duan Yun opened two rooms, Li Yun and his sister lived in one room, and Duan Yun and Chen Tiesheng lived in the next room.

This year's IFA exhibition will be held in the morning of the day after tomorrow, and the location of the exhibition hall is less than 1 km away from Duan Yun's hotel.

"Did you participate in this kind of exhibition when you were studying in Germany?" Duan Yun asked Chen Tiesheng after he came out of the bathroom after taking a shower.

"No." Chen Tiesheng shook his head, and continued: "These exhibitions are all attended by people in the industry. Besides, I have no money. During the three years of studying in Germany, I hardly went out of school in the first two years. All I thought about was studying, and in the last year of my graduation, I found a part-time job in a Chinese restaurant, and after returning to China, I bought a color TV at the Friendship Store and gave it to my parents..."

"What a filial son!" Duan Yun praised with a smile, remembering to say: "In the future, when you come to work in our company, you can buy a color TV every month. If you do well, we can sign a long-term contract. Our company It’s still a subcontracted housing, and it’s a commercial housing.”

"I've heard about this." Chen Tiesheng's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he continued, "I will definitely do a good job."

"For this exhibition, you still have an important task, which is to get me a copy of the brochures and leaflets for all the booths, and then you and Li Yun will translate these leaflets and brochures as soon as possible at night. But it's a bit big, you're okay, right?"

"No problem, my moral education level is good, don't worry, Manager Duan." Chen Tiesheng said hastily.

"Also, when you come to Germany this time, in addition to participating in the exhibition, you also need to help me choose some foreign language reference books. After returning home, your main task is to translate these foreign language books. The faster you translate, the more bonus I will give you. High!" Duan Yun raised his eyebrows and said.
