Siheyuan: Start with a big car

The workers of that time were not like the workers of later generations who only knew how to "drill screws" in the workshop.

Senior workers like them also need to have a certain level of technical skills, and some of them even need to be able to design products.

Xiao Hu was just an elementary school graduate. After entering the factory, he showed great diligence and eager to learn.

However, due to his low level of education, Xiao Hu did not receive any further promotion for a long time after being promoted to a third-level worker.

By chance, Chief Engineer Zhang went to the workshop to guide production work and met Xiao Hu.

He thought the child was very ambitious, so he spared no effort to help him improve his cultural level.

With the help of Chief Engineer Zhang, Xiao Hu was promoted from a third-level worker to a fourth-level worker in just one year.

You know, there is a huge watershed between level three workers and level four workers. Becoming a level four worker, or even becoming a mid-level worker, means Xiao Hu's future is limitless.

Only then will you have the opportunity to continue your golden life.

From this perspective, Chief Engineer Zhang has a huge favor to Xiao Hu. If he needs Xiao Hu's help with anything, Xiao Hu will definitely spare no effort.

With this thought in mind, Chief Engineer Zhang came to the next workstation. He looked at Xiao Hu who was busy and said with a smile: "Xiao Hu, are you busy?"

When Xiao Hu saw Chief Engineer Zhang, he was very enthusiastic: "Master Zhang, why are you here? Did you encounter any technical problems again?

You could have just called me from your workstation, why did you come here in person?"

Hearing this, Chief Engineer Zhang always felt a little uncomfortable.

Although he is working in the workshop now, according to regulations, the workers should call him Master Zhang.
But in fact, the workers sympathized with his situation and still called him Chief Engineer Zhang, while Xiao Hu called him Master Zhang.

However, Chief Engineer Zhang did not think much about it at this time. He smiled and said, "Xiao Hu, I need your help with something. Do you have time?"

Hearing this, Xiao Hu wanted to refuse directly, but his eyes turned, as if he had thought of something, and he quickly changed his words and said, "Master Zhang, if you need any help from me, just ask.

You know, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be where I am today.”

Chief Engineer Zhang smiled and said, "In that case, I'll just say it directly."

He looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to this side, so he whispered: "I heard that someone came to our factory recently. You also know that it is inconvenient for me to go out with my identity. How about you help me find out who it is."

Xiao Hu nodded quickly: "Master Zhang, don't worry, I will definitely help you figure it out."

When Chief Engineer Zhang saw Xiao Hu was so straightforward, he didn't think much about it and turned around and returned to his seat.

Chief Engineer Wang came over and asked, "Lao Zhang, what's the situation?"

Chief Engineer Zhang smiled and said, "Don't worry, Xiao Hu is a good kid, and I've helped him so much, he will definitely agree. Let's just wait with peace of mind."

Chief Engineer Wang also felt relieved.

What they didn't expect was that after hesitating for a moment, Xiao Hu asked for leave from the workshop director Chen and then left the workshop.

When Xiao Hu asked for leave, Director Chen felt something was wrong.

He happened to be going to the factory office to do some work, so he followed Xiao Hu out.

Xiao Hu didn't realize that he was being followed by Director Chen. He walked all the way to the factory office, then went up to the second floor and knocked on the door of an office.

After hearing the response from inside, Xiao Hu pushed the door open and walked in. Sitting behind the desk was none other than Deputy Director Zhou of the TV Factory.

Deputy Director Zhou didn't know Xiao Hu. When he saw Xiao Hu in a worker's uniform, he frowned and said, "Comrade worker, what are you doing here?"

What he meant was very clear. This was the deputy director's office. If Xiao Hu had any problems, he should report to the workshop director. He was not qualified to come here at all.

Xiao Hu was not afraid at all. Instead, he smiled and leaned over to say in a low voice, "Director Zhou, I want to report to you a little bit about the situation in the factory."

After hearing what Xiao Hu said, Deputy Director Zhou immediately understood Xiao Hu's intention. In fact, Deputy Director Zhou was able to quickly control the situation in the TV factory because of people like Xiao Hu.

He took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed it to Xiao Hu, and said with a smile: "What's your name?"

Xiao Hu quickly explained his identity, then lowered his voice and said, "Director Zhou, Chief Engineer Zhang came to me today and asked me to find out if anyone has come to our factory.

You may not know clearly that Chief Engineer Zhang helped me in the past. Logically, I should complete the tasks he gave me, but I am an employee of our TV factory and should listen to your leadership, not Chief Engineer Zhang.

So I came here specially to tell you the news."

Xiao Hu was actually a little hesitant at first. If it were someone else, he would not have reported this matter.

But he knew very well that once Director Zhou knew about the relationship between Chief Engineer Zhang and him, he would definitely be in trouble, so he might as well strike first and sacrifice Chief Engineer Zhang to save himself.

Hearing this, Director Zhou's face turned grim: "This Chief Engineer Zhang, I thought he had behaved himself after he arrived at the workshop, but I didn't expect that he would dare to play tricks on me now.

Okay, I know about this.

Don't worry, you performed very well this time, I will reward you later. It just so happens that there will be a vacancy for a team leader in your workshop in a while. I will talk to your Director Chen.

Let you be the leader of this team."

When Xiao Hu heard this, he clenched his fists excitedly.

He felt that he had finally made the right bet this time.
Although the team leader is still a worker and cannot be considered a leader, he can manage more than ten people in the workshop, and his work can be much easier.

"Director Zhou, thank you so much. I will definitely keep an eye on them in the workshop and report to you if there is any news."

After hearing the news, Director Zhou lost interest in Xiao Hu and waved his hand, saying, "Okay, you go first."

Xiao Hu backed out of the office and closed the door.

When Xiao Hu's figure disappeared at the office door, Director Zhou's face became gloomy again.

You know, quite a few people knew that Li Weidong had come to the factory, but only Director Liu and Director Chen knew that Li Weidong was here to take General Manager Zhang and General Manager Wang.

Director Liu will definitely not help the two of them, so the only one left is Director Chen.

"You are so good, Old Chen. You actually dared to betray me. Do you really think I am made of mud?"

Although Director Zhou was angry, Director Chen, Chief Engineer Zhang, and Chief Engineer Wang were different. Director Chen worked hard as a worker to become the workshop director. He had a high prestige in the workshop and was deeply loved by the new workers.

If there is no substantial evidence, it might be counterproductive to act rashly against Director Chen.

"Old Chen, just wait. When I get the chance, I will definitely make you pay."

What Director Zhou didn't expect was that Director Chen had heard everything outside the window.

"This damned Xiao Hu is actually an ungrateful bastard!"

Director Chen turned around and ran into the workshop. He wanted to stop Chief Engineer Zhang before he revealed more information.

It must be said that Director Chen is very experienced. Chief Engineer Zhang had been staring at Xiao Hu, and when he saw him come back, he immediately stood up and wanted to walk towards Xiao Hu.

At this time, Director Chen appeared.

He looked at Chief Engineer Zhang coldly and said, "Old Zhang, it's working time now. What's the matter? Why are you running around instead of working properly?
I tell you, you are a worker now, so remember your identity."

Chief Engineer Zhang did not expect Director Chen to suddenly scold him, and he was about to defend himself. At this time, Chief Engineer Wang saw that something was wrong and quickly stopped Chief Engineer Zhang.

He stood up and looked at Director Chen and said, "Director Chen, don't worry, I will supervise Lao Zhang to work hard and will never let him do anything again."

Director Chen saw that they had understood what he meant, so he nodded, turned and left.

After Director Chen left, Chief Engineer Zhang looked at Chief Engineer Wang with some frustration and said, "Old Wang, what's wrong with you?
Now that Xiao Hu is back, why don't you let me go and ask about the situation?"

Chief Engineer Wang raised his chin towards Director Chen's office and said, "Lao Zhang, don't you see it yet?
Director Chen is reminding us that something must have happened to Xiao Hu. "

"That's impossible. This is a very simple matter. Xiao Hu is a smart kid. There's no way he can't do it well."

"You are just too trusting.

No matter what happened, what we have to do now is to be careful. When we get off work, we will find a chance to ask Director Chen and we will know the answer."

Although Chief Engineer Zhang disagreed with Chief Engineer Wang's opinion, he had no other choice at this time and could only wait until the end of get off work.

The people in the workshop soon left, and the two of them tiptoed to Director Chen's office. The door of Director Chen's office was not closed tightly, and Chief Engineer Zhang opened the door and saw Director Chen sitting there waiting for them.

Chief Engineer Zhang walked over and lowered his voice and asked, "Director Chen, what happened?"

Director Chen lit a cigarette, looked at him and said, "Lao Zhang, if I'm not mistaken, you asked Xiao Hu to find out about it, right?"

Chief Engineer Zhang's face changed because he had not told Director Chen about this matter. How did Director Chen know about it?

Director Chen continued, "I was doing something in the factory office just now, and I happened to see Xiao Hu entering Director Zhou's office."

After hearing this, Chief Engineer Zhang took a deep breath and said, "Xiao Hu actually told Director Zhou about the matter I entrusted to him?
This is impossible. Xiao Hu is an honest child. I have done him such a great favor. How could he do this? "

Chief Engineer Wang looked at him, sighed and said, "Old Zhang, you can't judge a person by his appearance. Although you trust Xiao Hu very much, I think you must have misjudged Xiao Hu this time.

I think we should think about this matter carefully."

Although Chief Engineer Zhang said he didn't believe it, he already believed it to some extent in his heart.

After all, there was no need for Director Chen to deceive him. If Director Chen wanted to deceive him at the beginning, he would not have told him the news about the person outside.

However, they only have Xiao Hu in the workshop, so who else can they find now? Thinking of this, Chief Engineer Zhang looked at Director Chen.

Chief Engineer Wang also noticed Chief Engineer Zhang's actions

He quickly stopped Chief Engineer Zhang and said, "Old Zhang, what are you doing? Director Chen has helped us so much, we can't let Director Chen get involved because of our own affairs.

After all, this is against Director Zhou. Once Director Zhou finds out, even Director Chen will lose his position."

After hearing this, Chief Engineer Zhang had no choice but to give up.

Director Chen had really not intended to take care of their affairs, but now seeing this situation, his heart softened: "Lao Zhang, Lao Wang, it's hard to figure out what happened just relying on the two of you.

If you don't mind, I'll go and find out for you."

Seeing that Director Chen was willing to come forward, Chief Engineer Zhang was so excited that tears almost came out: "Director Chen, how can this be so embarrassing?"

Director Chen waved his hand and said, "You two made mistakes for the sake of the factory. I know this very well, so don't say anything more. This is what I should do.

Of course, please rest assured that although I am only a workshop director, I am not someone you can easily mess with in this workshop.
Even if Director Zhou knew, it would not be that easy for him to do anything to me."

Director Chen has made this statement, and Chief Engineers Zhang and Wang can only thank Director Chen again.

Director Chen is experienced and knows very well that if he asks rashly, not only will he not be able to find out what happened, but it may also arouse the suspicion of Director Zhou.

In particular, he was very sure that because of Xiao Hu's actions, Director Zhou already knew that he was helping Chief Engineers Zhang and Wang.

In this case, he should be more careful.

So Director Chen did not do anything in the next two days and just went to work and came home as usual.

This also made Director Zhou lose his vigilance. In Director Zhou's view, Director Chen helped the two of them just out of respect for the old comrade.

Director Chen just waited quietly, and the opportunity soon came.

On this day, Zhang, an officer from the factory office, went to the workshop to check the production for this month. After completing the task, Zhang wanted to return to the factory office.

Director Chen stopped him and said, "Secretary Zhang, you have been very busy with work recently. I wanted to invite you for a drink several times, but you were not available.

It's a coincidence today. I heard there's a famous pub here with good wine. I'd like to invite you to have a drink."

Director Zhang is Director Zhou's confidant. His relationship with Director Chen is not very good.

But he has a big problem, that is, he likes to drink. Especially Director Chen, who is usually an "old-fashioned" person in the factory.

No one's account is sold
I never invited him to drink.

This time it was not about drinking, but an "honor", so after hesitating for a moment, Director Zhang nodded and agreed. (End of this chapter)
