The film and television city starts from the courtyard

On this day, Zhao Shucheng had just seen off a group of new reporters for interviews.

Lei Shigen received a call from Song Yunhui in the village committee. He originally wanted to say that Zhao Shucheng was not there and asked him to convey his message if he had any.

But he saw Zhao Shucheng walking into the village committee with a gloomy face and said, "Hey, he's back. Wait a minute! Dongbao, Dongbao, it's Xiao Song's call."

Zhao Shucheng was a little angry when he heard this and said, "Who is Xiao Song? I'm telling you, don't contact me about interviews, reports or visits in the future. Instead of doing some nonsense, can you focus on doing practical things? Do you know how much money our village has spent just to receive reporters and visiting groups in less than a year?"

"This is all the money that the villagers have saved with their sweat and tears. They just eat and drink like this, and take it away when they leave. Do you know how sad it is for them?"

Lei Shigen was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and said awkwardly: "This is Xiaohui's call! Your brother-in-law!"

"You can just say Xiaohui. But don't ignore what I just said. Although our village is a little richer, we can't spend the money like this. I was thinking of building some more buildings for the village after the dividends are distributed at the end of the year, but now I have to be more frugal."

"You answer the phone first."

After Zhao Shucheng answered the phone, he learned about Song Yunhui's assignment after graduation.

"The chemical factory in the city is not very big, and I heard that the efficiency is not good. How come you, such a top student, went to such a small factory? If it were you, you might as well not report there and come directly to our Xia Lei family and work with me. Within three years, you can live in a small villa and even live better than your classmates."

Song Yunhui said: "Thank you, brother, but I still want to go to a unit that matches my major, otherwise my college studies in the past few years will be in vain."

"Xiaohui, are you calling to find your sister?"

"Nothing, just want to know how things are going at home."

Zhao Shucheng knew that Song Yunhui was not really just asking about the family situation, so he said, "Xiaohui, I am your brother-in-law. If you have any problems, don't bear it. Tell me."

In the end, Song Yunhui couldn't help but told Zhao Shucheng that he was rejected by Jinzhou Chemical, but he also knew that Zhao Shucheng would not be able to help.

  Zhao Shucheng couldn't help but shook his head after hearing this. He felt that Song Yunhui was really a person who came out of an ivory tower. When assigning work, he didn't think about using connections, but just waited. Isn't he waiting for someone to snatch his opportunity away?

You have to know how many people are eyeing a good opportunity these days, especially Jinzhou Chemical, a well-known enterprise in the country, who are all eyeing it covetously. If Song Yunhui doesn't find a way himself, others will definitely find a way to squeeze in.

Zhao Shucheng hesitated for a moment, but finally called County Magistrate Xu to explain Song Yunhui's situation. After all, he was considered a top student in the county, but he was assigned to a chemical plant that was about to go bankrupt, which was somewhat of a waste of talent.

County Magistrate Xu knew about Song Yunhui's situation. When he heard that Song Yunhui was the top student in his major every year but Jinzhou Chemical Industry did not admit him, he was a little surprised. So he called Jinzhou Chemical Industry to learn about Song Yunhui's interview and suggested that Jinzhou Chemical Industry make an exception and admit him.

When Song Yunhui was preparing to leave the dormitory and return to his hometown, he unexpectedly received a job offer from Jinzhou Chemical Industry specially added for him. Song Yunhui finally got what he wished for.

Song Yunhui carried his luggage on a shoulder pole to report to Jinzhou Chemical Industry, but he was puzzled by the constant pointing and talking about him along the way, especially when some people mentioned Secretary Shui, but he didn't know any Secretary Shui at all.

Early the next morning, Song Yunhui and Yu Shanqing, who had arrived at Jinzhou Chemical earlier, met with the factory director and secretary, and learned that today was the day they would be assigned work.

Song Yunhui finally met Secretary Shui and was curious about how the other party knew him and even had a relationship with him. In the end, Secretary Shui explained to Song Yunhui in person that he was indeed the one who made the decision to promote him, but it was also recommended to him by County Magistrate Xu.

Song Yunhui then realized that he was able to come to Jinzhou Chemical because of his brother-in-law. Unfortunately, he didn't know that because of County Magistrate Xu's recommendation, he was caught in the vortex of power struggle in Jinzhou Chemical.

In the past, Jinzhou Chemical was managed by Secretary Shui, but now the factory director is in charge of the company. As a result, there is a struggle between the factory director and Secretary Shui for the right to speak, and Song Yunhui unfortunately becomes a pawn in the struggle between the two sides.

Zhao Shucheng actually knew that Song Yunhui would face such a situation, but this was something Song Yunhui had to face, and it would also help his growth, so he contacted County Magistrate Xu and let Song Yunhui move forward along the original trajectory.

He really didn't have the energy to build bridges and pave the way for Song Yunhui. Everyone had to walk their own way, and he could only give him a ride, but not accompany him all the way. Besides, Xiao Lei's family was so busy during this period that they couldn't take care of things outside.

The products of Xiao Lei's bamboo weaving factory and wool spinning factory have always sold well, and they are considered to be well-known foreign exchange earning enterprises in the province. Many villages and enterprises have also tried to learn from Xiao Lei's practices and export to earn foreign exchange.

However, they did not think about how to increase the added value of the products, thereby raising the unit price of the products. Instead, they only wanted to win by low price and quantity. Therefore, during the Canton Fair, bamboo weaving products and woolen textile products once again faced a price war.

Zhao Shucheng and his team did not continue to attend the Canton Fair this time, because they already had stable contact channels with previous customers, and even reached a consensus on brands and prices, so they had no shortage of orders.

When those companies saw that Zhao Shucheng and his team did not compete for the quota for the Canton Fair in the province, they were very happy at first, but when they arrived at the Canton Fair, they found it difficult to do business. After the meeting, they found that the number of orders and the amount of foreign exchange were not even close to Xiao Lei's.

At this, those companies were a little unhappy. They thought that it was Xiao Lei's family who was secretly making trouble and prevented them from making money, so they reported it to the city and provincial governments.

However, Xiao Lei's family received orders of their own every once in a while, some of which were even more than before they went to the Canton Fair. The amount of foreign exchange they earned was also gradually increasing. Naturally, it was impossible for the province and the city to criticize Xiao Lei's family for this.

However, Zhao Shucheng was not without worries. Now the brick factory and prefabricated products factory have become low-profit and labor-intensive enterprises in the village. The bamboo weaving factory and the wool house have been in short supply due to the gradual increase in orders, and now they urgently need to expand their production scale. Zhao Shucheng has thought about stopping the brick kiln directly and letting the villagers transfer to the construction team or factory, but every time he mentioned this, other villagers objected. Especially Lei Shigen and Shi Hongwei, who were in charge of the brick factory, resolutely refused to close the brick kiln and prefabricated products factory.

Seeing their firm attitude, Zhao Shucheng didn't bother to care about the brick kiln and prefabricated board factory. After all, each enterprise in the village was already making profits and losses. They would maintain it if they could, and deal with it later when they couldn't.

After much hesitation, Zhao Shucheng decided to recruit workers from outside to expand the production scale of the bamboo weaving factory and the wool spinning factory.

The villagers did have some opinions on this, but when Zhao Shucheng laid out the difficulties the village was facing, the shortage of labor, and even the inability to meet the orders from companies. If no new employees were hired, they would have to pay liquidated damages, the villagers were speechless.

Of course, the Lei family's hiring of outsiders is different from hiring villagers. After all, the Lei family's enterprises are collective enterprises, which are enterprises invested by villagers, so villagers can enjoy dividends, while workers can only get fixed wages and piecework wages, and at most some year-end bonuses at the end of the year.

When the workers were working, they saw the lightning logo and even English letters on Xiao Lei's products, and asked curiously, but were told not to ask questions and just do their work seriously.

In fact, these English words and lightning logos are the trademarks of Xiao Lei's family, and also the name of the Xiao Lei's family brand. Zhao Shucheng did not come up with another name, but directly used Xiao Lei's family as the name, abbreviated in English as S.T.H. It must be said that after the brand was established, although it is not a luxury product, it has at least gained some popularity abroad, which is different from those unknown products and is more popular with some foreigners.

Zhao Shucheng and the villagers were busy as hell, but Lao Hou was feeling a bit uncomfortable. He originally thought that he could make some money from the rabbit fur purchasing station in the village.

In the first year, he didn't dare to make any moves because Sibao was following him. But when he was about to take action in the second year, he didn't expect that Zhao Shucheng would directly set up a wool spinning factory in the village. In addition to supplying the manufacturers in Shanghai, the rabbit hair purchasing station also transported the rest of the rabbit hair to the rabbit hair factory after slightly adding a price.

This time, the old monkey couldn't pocket the money, and even the price was transparent to the villagers. He thought there should be no problem with the Magic City, but he didn't expect that when he came back to reconcile the accounts, Zhao Shucheng directly revealed the purchase price of the Magic City, and he didn't dare to do anything.

The old branch secretary had been worried that Zhao Shucheng would let Old Houhuan take charge of the rabbit fur purchasing station and that Old Houhuan would be cheated. However, when he saw that Old Houhuan was firmly under the control of Zhao Shucheng, he could not help laughing.

"No, Dongbao, how do you know the purchase price of rabbit fur in the Magic City?"

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Uncle, we also have a wool spinning mill here. We keep in touch with the Magic City so that we can reach an agreement on the price of rabbit wool and prevent people from driving up prices. Therefore, the prices are transparent to us."

"Is this appropriate? Isn't this a monopoly?"

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Not really. It's just a reasonable price that is acceptable. Moreover, we set the purchase price according to the international rabbit fur price. It will not cause losses to the people, nor will it let the manufacturers bear too much risk."

"Since you know what's going on, I feel relieved. I'm already old, and I should give the position of secretary to you young people."

Zhao Shucheng said, "Uncle, you are wrong. An old man in the family is like a treasure. Besides, Shigen and I are young, but not stable enough. We still need your experience to stabilize the talents in the village."

Zhao Shucheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Uncle, according to my plan, the Lei family will definitely not be limited to a small mountain village in the future. You will be the one to go out into the future. At that time, I will be the one leading the team to charge into battle, and I need a prestigious person to stay behind me. There is no other suitable person except you."

After hearing this, the old branch secretary laughed and said, "Dongbao, you are trying to use me to death. You won't even let me have some free time."

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Uncle, you are not very old yet, you still need to manage our village for a while. Besides, you also hope to see our Xiaoleijia become the best village in the world one day, right?"

"If there really is such a day, I will die with a smile on my face." The old branch secretary was a little bit unbelievable when he heard Zhao Shucheng's words, but his eyes were full of hope. If there really is such a day, and he is the branch secretary, then he can stand up straight in front of his ancestors, and even be highlighted in the family tree.

When Song Yunping was busy at the farm, she suddenly felt a little unwell. At this time, the women working at the farm saw Song Yunping and jokingly asked her if she was pregnant.

When Song Yunping first heard them ask this, she felt a little shy, then she felt a little unbelievable and wanted to tell Zhao Shucheng.

After Zhao Shucheng knew the news, he was indeed very happy. After all, he had offspring in this world, which was something worth being happy about.

However, to be on the safe side, Zhao Shucheng and Song Yunping went to the county hospital for a check-up. After confirming that she was really pregnant, they hugged each other happily.

Zhao Shucheng told Song Yunping not to be so busy every day. She could go to the farm but not to do it herself. After all, nothing was more important than the children now.

When the two of them got back to the village, Song Yunping saw that Zhao Shucheng was about to call Song Yunhui, so she quickly stopped Zhao Shucheng and said, "Don't tell him now. By the way, Dongbao, Xiaohui wrote to me before, saying that you helped him solve his work problems, and asked me to say thank you on his behalf."

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "You are so polite to me. Besides, he is my brother-in-law, so I have to help him. Besides, he is a top student from our county. I can't really let him go to work in a small chemical factory that is about to go bankrupt. He must go to the best place."

"You blow it!"

Zhao Shucheng looked at Song Yunping and said, "In the beginning, I wanted Xiaohui to come to our Xiaolei's house. After all, there are so many companies, and any one of them can let him work, even the rabbit fur factory can let him use what he has learned. But Xiaohui has seen a lot outside, and he will definitely look down on our small place, so I called County Magistrate Xu."

"I know you are doing this for Xiaohui's own good, but it's not a good idea for him to come to Xiaolei's house. This will cause the villagers to gossip." (End of this chapter)
