Return to 88: Starting from Marrying My Sister-in-law

Du Lingling also came at a good time this year.

She had contributed a lot to the establishment of Wanyan Company in Xingsha City, because before she came, this place was just a deserted piece of yellow land.

Wait until she comes.

Someone came with capital.

An innovative electronic technology enterprise with an investment of several hundred million yuan was able to settle down there without any discount, allowing her to firmly sit in the position of head of a district under the jurisdiction of the provincial capital.

That was the end of it.

But the situation is different now. Ever since Jiang Wanli appeared on CCTV's financial channel together with Lu Yang, it is not just Wanyan Company that shares the same honor and disgrace with him.

In recent days, the work phone of their Kaifu District Committee has been bombarded with calls from the media.

They all wanted to come for an interview.

Several local authoritative newspaper leaders wanted to learn some inside information about Wanyan Company through their local government.

Good to master some exclusive information.

Of course, if we could contact Mr. Jiang or Mr. Lu through the leaders within the jurisdiction of these companies and give their newspaper an opportunity for an exclusive interview.

Even better.

In addition, senior leaders from the city also called to express their concern about the matter, and also revealed that they wanted to come down to investigate, but considering that the enterprises might not be prepared, they asked their district to go to the enterprises to get some information first.

Get the job done.

Look, the political achievements are here!
Absolutely, and it’s delivered to your door.

No one would have thought that a company within their jurisdiction would one day appear on CCTV.

So recently, every staff member of the district party committee building has been smiling when meeting everyone, and everyone feels that they share the honor, especially Du Lingling, who feels especially respected.

Wherever she went, people would stare at her and congratulate her with hidden meanings. It seemed that after Wanyan Company became famous across the country, everyone knew that Du Lingling was about to be promoted.

"Our new female district chief is really capable. She's a master at her first move."

"Yes, I heard that before she came, our district committee was most anxious about the piece of land under the factory building of Wanyan Company. That piece of land was expropriated and demolished all at once, and then just left there.

It has been two years since it was put on hold. If it weren't for our District Chief Xiao Du who was transferred here and brought 200 million yuan of investment to our district as soon as he took office, this would have solved a big problem that the District Committee was facing. Originally, I thought it would take at least three to five years to produce some results.

But who would have thought, hey, they sent us a satellite, which either didn't become popular, or became popular all over the country, and now our district committee has also been exposed to the people of the whole country."

"Wow, I heard this is a groundbreaking technology product. Even foreigners don't have it, but we do. The device called a video recorder produced by foreigners doesn't have our V... Why is it called V?"

“VCD.”

"Oh, that's VCD. Why does this name sound weird? It's neither foreign nor Chinese. Forget it. As long as it's invented by our own people, we have to support it no matter what, right?"

"Then go buy it. I heard it's already on the market. Don't just give lip service to it!"

"Buy it then. By the way, how much is it?"

"5600. I've already asked for you."

"What? It's so expensive. Forget it. Even if I eat pickled vegetables all day, I still need to save money for two years to be able to afford it. Am I crazy?"

"You're not crazy, you're just mean."

"Haha, I'm just kidding. I already have a VCR at home. Even though it's second-hand, I bought it for about 2000 yuan. It's still usable. I'll wait until it breaks down."

"I don't believe you. Hasn't your TV been broken for a long time and can't be played?"

"Tsk, I just didn't get it repaired. When I have time some other day, I can get it repaired and use it, right?"

Even so for government workers, in the autumn of 1993, they would have to save money for at least one or two years to buy such a newly-released VCD player.

But how many people are willing to pay this money?
Du Lingling has also been thinking about this matter recently. She personally feels that the VCD player sold by Wanyan Company is a bit overpriced, which conflicts with the science and technology industrial park plan that she is going to apply to her superiors for and take the lead in establishing.

Wanyan is a good company, and the VCD player it has launched on the market is a truly epoch-making product.

It is extremely important to their Kaifu District and even the entire Xingsha City.

Although Xingsha City is the capital of Hunan Province, it is only the capital of an inland province after all, not a big city in the coastal area.

In 1993, reform and opening up had just started, and we were crossing the river by feeling the stones. We had only touched two stones. The big brother had fallen, but the second brother had to keep moving forward. So for the current domestic situation, high-tech enterprises were rare, not to mention in the inland areas, even in the coastal big cities, which were postcards of reform and opening up.

For example, the sudden popularity of Wanyan Company, the launch of VCD, a cross-fashion product, and its recognition by CCTV news program were like a Lin Daiyu falling from the sky.

Must not hold on to it tightly?
Opportunity, yes, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Du Lingling has already communicated privately with several superiors and leaders she is on good terms with through private channels. Everyone is inclined to take this opportunity to further increase the efforts to attract high-tech companies to settle in their Star City. Du Lingling also suggested that at this stage, the easiest thing to introduce should be the VCD player, a product of Wanyan Company, and the companies related to its supporting upstream and downstream industrial chains.

Such as laser heads, capacitors, motors, motherboards, motors, etc., also including casings and structural parts, etc., not limited to plastic or metal.

To put it nicely, when Du Lingling was the director of the Economic Development Zone of Baoqing City, she helped the zone to introduce an electronics factory called "Xiao Tiancai". Since the launch of the "Xiao Tiancai" game learning machine, its sales in the market have been rising steadily. I heard that it is very likely to exceed 200 million units this year. The machines in the workshop are producing so much that smoke is coming out, and product orders have been scheduled until next year.

These words were not said by Du Lingling herself, but were deliberately revealed to her by her old subordinates in the Economic Development Zone of Baoqing City when they talked to her on the phone.

She said that the new director was benefiting from the help of her old leader.

There is no shortage of projects in the Economic and Technological Development Zone nowadays. Ever since Xiao Tiancai's learning machine became popular, it has become difficult to find an inch of land around Xiao Tiancai's factory. Various supporting factories are being built at a rapid pace. Local and non-local wealthy bosses have come to the building of the Economic and Technological Development Zone waving their banknotes, only asking the staff of the Economic and Technological Development Zone to help them make some connections and build bridges so that they can become suppliers of sinking parts for Xiao Tiancai.

Without any conditions, they even offered money to them, and did not ask for any preferential policies. As long as they could become the sinking parts supplier of Xiaotiancai, they would dare to build the factory on the land of the Economic Development Zone. As long as they could become the sinking parts supplier of Xiaotiancai, with Xiaotiancai's current annual sales and millions of units shipped, it was obvious that what was waiting for them was to make a lot of money. No one was stupid, and who didn't want to make a lot of money?

So now all the staff members in the Economic Development Zone are looking down on the small-scale enterprises that come to settle in their Economic Development Zone. As for those bosses who come to them with money in hand and ask for favors, they no longer say "you come to set up a factory, then I will help you", but they still have to go through layers of approval from them. There are too many people coming, and it is impossible for everyone to have a chance. The specific qualification certification method, um... is kept confidential.

In short, one word: awesome. Two words: so awesome, so awesome that it makes me numb!
Having such an awesome enterprise settle down in their small Baoqing Mountain City Economic Development Zone is a godsend for everyone in the Economic Development Zone!

This is no different from pie falling from the sky!

Du Lingling, the former director who had introduced this project and had been promoted, naturally became the object of their gratitude and praise.

Do you understand now?

Du Lingling's inspiration also comes from this.

She wanted to learn from the experience of Baoqing Economic Development Zone and create the epoch-making star product VCD. Starting from the downstream parts suppliers, she would gradually involve the entire upstream and downstream product industry chain and further build it into a nationally famous high-tech electronic industry science and technology park.

If this plan can be realized, not only will the Kaifu District Committee and the people within the district be able to obtain countless benefits, but the entire Xingsha City and the entire Hunan Province may also rise in the central region.

Really, it's not an exaggeration at all. After all, it's only 1993 now, and Du Lingling is prepared to spend 8 years, or two terms, during her tenure in Kaifu District, to realize her grand blueprint.

If she could do it, she would have no regrets. She gave up teaching at the university and chose to go into politics, gave up talking about it on paper and started drawing up the regional economic blueprint herself. She didn't know how many people were secretly laughing at her and waiting for her to make a fool of herself. She gritted her teeth and persisted for so many years, just to wait for an opportunity, an opportunity to slap these people in the face.

When she succeeds, she can proudly say to these people: "I have put my knowledge into practice. You guys want to make fun of me, so you can go away now. Get lost."

With this hopeful vision, Du Lingling got off work that day, opened the door, and suddenly found that there was something wrong with the place where she put her shoes.

Well, there is an extra pair of men's leather shoes, and the size looks familiar.

She was stunned for a moment, then immediately covered her mouth in surprise and let out a suppressed scream: "Is it you? Brother Lu..."

Besides herself, she had also given Lu Yang a key to this house.

This is treatment that even her own father doesn't get.

After Du Lingling let out a scream, she immediately dropped the briefcase in her hand, took off her high heels, and ran barefoot around the entrance to the living room of the house. When she didn't find anyone in the living room, she quickly ran to her own bedroom, opened the door, and didn't find anyone inside. She even lifted the quilt on the bed, and found it was empty. For a moment, she couldn't accept it.

Is it an illusion?
impossible……

That couldn't be possible, I wasn't hallucinating.

From great joy to great sorrow, in just this moment, even she, an iron lady, felt her nose sore, and then tears brewed in her eyes, until they overflowed from her eyes and flowed down her cheeks.

Yes, she is very career-oriented, but she is also a woman!

There is no woman who is not lonely.

Especially when she had hope, and her hope was the little brother who had entered her heart at the beginning. Ever since the two of them broke that layer of window paper, there has been not a day that she has not thought about each other.

I think about it morning and night, but I can still numb myself with work during the day. But at night, when it's late and quiet, that feeling of loneliness and solitude is so intense that it makes me unable to sleep and drives me crazy.

She waited and waited, and finally the day came. The other party came to the city where she was and came to see her again. However, she searched the whole room but could not find the shadow of the other party. She was worried and anxious, and finally began to realize that this might be an illusion, caused by her missing the other party too much...

She can't accept it!
These tears not only represent the loss in her heart, but also her self-esteem. She has lost, completely lost. Her whole heart has been captured by the other party. From now on, she will no longer be the strong and courageous woman, but an ordinary little woman who has fallen in love.

She panicked.

I am afraid of how I became what I am today.
"Don't panic."

"I am here."

Lu Yang suddenly appeared behind her, wearing an apron and holding a spatula in his hand, and held her in his arms.

Du Lingling sniffed and looked down at the spatula in his hand.

Trying to hold back her tears, she asked, "You were in the kitchen just now? Why didn't you tell me?"

Lu Yang rested his head on her shoulder and said softly, "I wanted to give you a surprise, but I didn't expect to scare you. It's my fault, dear sister, can you stop being angry?"

Du Lingling wanted to be angry but couldn't. She struggled hard but couldn't get out of the embrace of the guy behind her. She could only stamp her feet and suddenly burst into laughter, "Okay, I'm not angry anymore. Let me go. Sister is really not angry anymore."

She also thought it through. Instead of being angry with this guy, she might as well seize the present moment, lest she make him angry and run away, and then she would be alone in the empty room.

Lu Yang turned her body around and kissed her forehead directly. After the kiss, he smiled and said, "Wait a minute. I'll go cook for you."

As he said this, he wanted to turn around.

Du Lingling walked up to him, hugged his waist, and put her face against his back: "Don't leave, I'm not hungry."

Not hungry?

The corners of Lu Yang's mouth curled up.

I thought to myself: You evil witch, it’s not that you’re not hungry, it’s obvious that you want to eat people!

Fortunately, I am not a vegetarian.

Just come!
Suddenly afraid...

He turned around, dropped the spatula in his hand, and hugged the man by the waist. . .
