The booming era begins with the director of the Propaganda Department!

Chapter 375 Yu Haitang!!

People of this era have a very strong sense of collective honor. When they learned that Zhang Shenfei's film from their factory was about to participate in the Hundred Flowers Film Festival, they immediately felt a surge of pride in their hearts.

In the end, what was originally a good open-air movie screening turned into a fan meeting for Zhang Shenfei.

Hearing the crowd surrounding Zhang Shenfei and trying to please him, Jia Zhang, who was standing by, suddenly felt a surge of pride in her heart.

Humph, a bunch of short-sighted guys, have you only now realized how different Zhang Shenfei is?
Unlike me, I had already seen that he was not an ordinary person more than ten years ago!!
I remember that Zhang Shenfei gave him the idea and asked him to come to the steel rolling mill to take over Dongxu's job.

Such an idea was totally unheard of and shocked everyone.

Everyone thought that Zhang Shenfei was crazy for coming up with such an idea, but he was the only one who believed in the other party unconditionally at that time.

What was the final result? Facts have proved that Zhang Shenfei's method was completely correct.

He has been working in the steel mill for ten years. As long as he works for five years, he can receive a pension every month, at least twenty yuan.

Isn't this better than the three yuan pension that Dongxu was promised every month when he was alive?

The most important thing is that after entering the steel rolling mill, he found the second spring of his life. Not only did he become a couple with Lao Qin, but he also gave birth to Qin Lao Er.

It can be said that our current wonderful life all started with Zhang Shenfei’s advice.

When she thought of this, Jia Zhang wanted to kowtow to Zhang Shenfei.

……

It was already late at night when we finished watching the movie. At this normal time, apart from the night patrol, there were basically only two or three kittens and some naughty kids wandering around the street.

But today is different. After ten years of development, the steel rolling mill is no longer the small factory with a thousand people like when Zhang Shenfei first worked as the propaganda officer. Instead, it has become a giant in the steel rolling industry with nearly 10,000 people, directly under the Ministry of Metallurgy, and well-known in the north.

Although not all workers came to watch the movie today, even one-tenth of them, plus their families, would be horrifying.

Thousands of people left the steel mill and swarmed out toward the inner city of Sijiucheng behind Dongzhimen. They laughed, made noises, and talked about family matters and work troubles.

Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong who were standing beside him were discussing that after the harvest got better and they no longer had to buy grain at high prices, they could save some money to buy a new camphorwood wardrobe for their Yi Weihong.

"Well, what is the purpose of living a lifetime? Isn't it just to live for a child? My wife's clothes are three years new and three years old, not to mention me. The work clothes issued by the factory are enough for me. I don't need to buy clothes at all.

But our Yi Weihong is different. The little girl grows fast, so she needs new clothes every year. She will go to primary school soon, so I have to buy more clothes for her. It’s not too much to have a separate wardrobe!!!” Yi Zhonghai was showing off in his words.

Although the slogan "Women hold up half the sky" is shouted these days, in reality there are still many people who favor boys over girls.

There are very few people like Yi Zhonghai who treats his daughters as if they were the apple of his eye. Of course, this may be related to the fact that he and Yima didn't have a child until they were more than 30 years old after their marriage.

As for people, during the long wait, their goals will gradually become smaller and more humble.

Buying a camphorwood wardrobe for a little girl? Liu Haizhong was very upset.

They had three sons!!! He himself entered the steel mill at the age of fourteen and worked there all his life, but he never used a camphorwood wardrobe. Why did a girl like Yi Weihong deserve this? ? ?

I can only say that Old Yi is really crazy. Thinking about how he has worked all his life but still cannot compare to a girl, he pinched a lemon in his bangs and felt a sour feeling in his stomach.

But since it wasn't his own money anyway, he couldn't find any way to refute it, so he could only say "hmm" casually to indicate that he heard it.

Yi Zhonghai didn't care about these things. He sighed and said, "I don't know when this drought will end... I heard on the radio that the drought in many places has eased this year, and it is possible that it will be completely cured next year. Uncle, what do you think?"

Without waiting for Zhang Shenfei to speak, Liu Haizhong snorted coldly: "You believe what's in that chatterbox? Since 1959, which year have they not said the same thing? I've figured out that what these media people say is like fart, none of them can be believed!!!"

After saying that, as if he was still not satisfied, he spat fiercely on the ground.

Yi Zhonghai glanced at the yellow spit that was half a meter in front of him, which was not very clear. A hint of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes. He turned his foot to avoid the spit and walked towards Zhang Shenfei, asking again: "Uncle, what do you think? Can this matter be resolved?"

Zhang Shenfei said, "Isn't there an old saying? A drought lasts no more than three years, and a flood lasts no more than a hundred days. If you calculate carefully, it will be three years after the New Year."

Although Zhang Shenfei is young, his prestige in the courtyard is not low. Hearing him say this, Yi Zhonghai's eyes suddenly filled with joy and emotion:
"It would be great if life could get better after the New Year! These past few years... seeing the people around me having a hard time, I feel mixed emotions. I can't describe how I feel."

After the re-evaluation this summer, he has been successfully promoted to the eighth-level worker, with a monthly salary of up to 99 yuan. This salary is comparable to that of many cadres.

In addition, there are only three people in the Yi family. They earn a lot and spend little. It can be said that Yi Zhonghai is now a member of the white-collar class in the city.

When he said these words at this moment, he seemed to be distinguishing himself from ordinary workers, looking down on all living beings from above and showing compassion for the world.

Liu Haizhong, who was standing by, was immediately displeased when he heard this: "Old Yi, you sound like the mayor of a city in Beijing. In my opinion, you might be transferred from the steel mill to the municipal party committee in the future and be responsible for people's livelihood."

This is what I said...

Yi Zhonghai glared at Liu Haizhong, as if he didn't understand how he had offended the other party and why the other party had to bite him at this moment.

This is only in front of Zhang Shenfei, the deputy factory director. Otherwise, I have to ask this old Liu! ! !

Yi Zhonghai was angry and didn't want to pay attention to Liu Haizhong, so he just pretended not to hear what the other party said. He turned his head to look at Zhang Shenfei, waiting for his reply.

Zhang Shenfei smiled and said jokingly, "I'm not saying you're the second uncle, but how come Uncle Yi can be Uncle Yi, and you can only be the second uncle? With your awareness, it's not just a little bit lower than the other party.

But then again, since you know that the uncle is more noble than you, you should catch up with him and not be left too far behind, right? ? "

When Yi Zhonghai heard this, he immediately smiled. Director Zhang knew that he had been wronged and was helping him vent his anger!!!

"Well, Director, thank you for your compliment... I will definitely keep up the good work in the future."

Liu Haizhong, who was standing aside, had a dark complexion and remained silent.

Zhang Shenfei pretended not to notice his expression and continued to talk to Yi Zhonghai. To be honest, everyone had a hard time in the past few years. Yi Zhonghai, as the one with the best family conditions in the courtyard and the only eighth-level fitter in the steel rolling mill, helped a lot of people to the best of his ability.

Because of this, Zhang Shenfei's opinion of him changed a lot.

Of course, although his attitude had changed, when Yi Zhonghai asked him to pay more money every month, he still refused mercilessly.

You can’t talk about feelings, it’s so expensive!!!

Liu Haizhong choked a little, and he no longer envied Yi Weihong's big camphorwood box. Instead, he thought about how his words just now did not follow Director Zhang's intention...

Oh my god, this won’t affect my future career in the steel mill, right? ? ! ! !

No way, it won't work! He had to find a chance to get along well with Director Zhang. This was the most powerful leader he could get along with, so he couldn't fail to serve him well.

No one knew what Liu Haixin was thinking. After walking for a few miles along Gulou East Street, the large number of steel mill workers and their families went into the small alleys, and fewer and fewer people walked on the main road.

When they reached the intersection of Nanluoguxiang, everyone in the courtyard turned right, and Zhang Shenfei also turned right.

When he walked into the courtyard, passed through the hanging flower gate into the front yard, and opened his own door, he found that Yan Jiecheng's wife Yu Li was waiting there.

"Dafei is back? Sister-in-law Yu Li has been waiting for you at home for a long time." Tian Xiaozao said, patting Zhang Weiguo who was already sleeping.

Zhang Shenfei raised his eyebrows, wondering why Yu Li was looking for him in the middle of the night.

Although Yu Li had been married to Siheyuan for some time, they had always been just nodding acquaintances and had hardly spoken to each other at all.

This matter came up suddenly, it seems that something is wrong!!!

Zhang Shenfei walked to Tian Xiaozao and pricked the nose of Zhang Weiguo who was sleeping soundly. He succeeded in making the boy open his eyes, but received a roll of the eyes from Tian Xiaozao and a smack from Grandma Zhang.

"You are such a jerk! The child just fell asleep and you're making him cry!!! I'll beat you to death."

Zhang Shenfei was beaten, and then he touched his nose with a wry smile: "Well, sister-in-law Yu Li, let's go out and talk?"

The two of them went out and didn't go far, but ended up at the door of Zhang's house, which was directly opposite old Yan's house.

Yu Li considered and spoke: "Well, Director Zhang, I heard that our steel mill's radio station is hiring?"

"Are you hiring?" Zhang Shenfei didn't really know. He went to school every day and only went to the steel mill two or three times a month. Most of the time he went to meetings and rarely went to the Propaganda Department. "Isn't the previous broadcaster Niu Lili still young? Why didn't she quit?"

Yu Li said: "Not really, it's just that I heard that Niu Lili is going to be promoted to deputy director of the Propaganda Section, so that position is vacant..."

"Oh." Zhang Shenfei looked at Yu Li and recalled a woman named Yu Haitang in his mind.

Sure enough, the next moment he heard Yu Li tell him that in the eyes of girls, being a broadcaster is a very popular job these days, even more popular than sales clerks in department stores and supply and marketing cooperatives.

"The personnel department of the steel mill posted a notice to recruit new broadcasters. I have a sister named Yu Haitang, who is a classmate of Yu Shui. She just graduated from high school this year and she wants to sign up..."

Zhang Shenfei nodded: "You have a high school degree, so if you have a good appearance and a good voice, then you can apply. The chances of being accepted are probably quite high."

Yu Li wrinkled her nose. "We thought so before, but I heard from my sister yesterday that there is someone who has also signed up, and her family has connections... She is afraid that the other party will get in through the back door, and then she will have no chance of winning."

Ah, this. Zhang Shenfei touched his chin and pondered for a while why Yu Li came to him. "So you are looking for me now to report that the other party used the back door and used connections? This matter is not my responsibility. You can report it to the security department."

Having said that, I felt in my heart that Yu Li's move to report was not a smart one.

To be honest, it is so difficult to find a job these days. Anyone with connections would use them.

Not to mention others, didn’t Yu Li’s own man Yan Jiecheng and her brother-in-law Yan Jiefang also find their jobs through connections?
Why is it that the Yan family still insists that only I can set fires, but no one else can light lamps? ?
Seeing Zhang Shenfei's misunderstanding, Yu Li hurriedly explained: "No, Director Zhang, you misunderstood. I don't want to report anyone. I am... I was thinking that you are the deputy director of the steel rolling mill. Although you are in charge of the canteen, didn't you work in the Propaganda Department? It is said that you have strong connections in the personnel department..."

Zhang Shenfei understood now, it turned out that Yu Li didn’t want to report you, but wanted you to use your connections, so I will use my connections too!!!
"Well, my parents from my mother's family have discussed it, and my sister really needs this job... Director Zhang, can you please give her a try? Don't worry, your work will not be in vain." Yu Li said, and took out something from her pocket and stuffed it into Zhang Shenfei's hand.

Zhang Shenfei felt it was hard, and after a quick glance, he discovered it was a small jade seal. It looked like an antique.

Oh? I've heard that the Yan family considers themselves as intellectuals, and that the Qin family is also in the literary and artistic circle. I didn't pay much attention to it before, but looking at this little seal, it's true.

Do you want to accept this small seal? ? ? Do you want to help Yu Haitang? ? Zhang Shenfei accepted it without any hesitation.

Nonsense, although I don’t know what kind of dirty things and accidents happened during the competition, the position of announcer in the original drama originally belonged to Yu Haitang.

In other words, if he accepted the seal and did nothing else, Yu Haitang would still be the announcer at the steel mill.

If you drop a hundred dollars on the ground, don’t you know to pick it up?

If you just take the benefits without doing any work, and then you can sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor, only a fool would not do that!!!

Zhang Shenfei put the small seal into his pocket without hesitation and decided to get some more.

It's not that he's greedy, it's just that a job is so popular these days!!! The price for an ordinary worker in a large collective is more than 500 yuan. For a large state-owned enterprise like their steel mill, the starting price is at least 1,000 yuan.

And the broadcasters in the big state-owned enterprises? ? They are extremely popular. If they are used for such a small seal, wouldn’t it destroy the market? ?
Not only would other people scold him for not knowing the rules if they found out, but the Yan family and other people would also think that Zhang Shenfei was easy to talk to because he did things so easily, and would come to him for trivial matters in the future.

That will cause endless troubles!!
Thinking of this, Zhang Shenfei smacked his lips and said, "I'll take the things first, and I'll go and ask about the situation for you guys...

We have been neighbors for decades, and I won't argue with you, sister-in-law. It's not easy to arrange a job, and there are many connections that need to be opened up... I may need you later..."

Yu Li was no pushover, as she was able to marry into the calculating old Yan family. She immediately said that Director Zhang had misunderstood and that the small seal was just for him to play with.

"Asking you to arrange a job is another matter. Just decide how much it will cost. I'll go back and tell my parents."
