Back to the 80s Machinery Factory

Chapter 225 Just a theater ticket?

That night,

Chen Luyang, Song Liaosha and a group of friends from the machinery factory had a happy meal together.

In the past two days, although Chen Jinyue didn't let him kiss her, she didn't kiss him either.

But the two of them danced, kissed hands, and kissed each other, and it was obvious that the other person was interested in her.

Everyone can see Chen Luyang's good mood.

Seeing his cheerfulness, Hao Fengchun joked, "Xiao Chen, you're really amazing. You're so happy just by being sick, like it's New Year's Eve!"

"Haha, that's why I'm happy. Our car is selling so well, everyone would be happy!" Chen Luyang changed the subject.

"Uncle Hao, I was so dizzy that day. What's going on with Comrade Liu from the Mechanical and Electrical Company? Are they planning to hold a car show?"

Hao Fengchun gets excited when he mentions this: "It's not an auto show, but it's pretty much the same."

"After the Chinese New Year, designers and engineers from other countries' auto companies will come to Pianercheng to participate in the exhibition. By then, not only our machinery factory, but other domestic automakers will also come."

“This is a great opportunity to learn technology!”

Having said that, Hao Fengchun looked at Chen Luyang with an expression of "tell the truth".

"Xiao Chen, how many foreign languages can you speak?"

The last time Liu Zhenrong and Chen Luyang had a conversation, everyone at the table was listening.

At first I could still distinguish Japanese, English and French, but later on it was so confusing that I couldn't even tell what language they were speaking.

Chen Luyang was a little modest: "I will order whatever is played on the radio."

"But I only know a little bit, just a little bit!"

Chen Luyang frantically tried to make up for it.

Hao Fengchun and everyone else looked at his expression which was trying to hide something but it only made it more obvious: Haha.

"It was a good decision to recruit you into the factory back then!" Hao Fengchun was extremely grateful for his good eye for talent.

But I regretted it later...!
Chen Luyang sighed softly.

If he had known that he would have an affair with the hotel's female manager today, he should have been hired as a full-time employee and collected the hotel's salary every day to have an affair with the female manager.

The next day, the female manager was in a bad mood and saw that the hotel staff did not look happy either.

Cao Qinghang was also in a bad mood, and looked like he had a lot on his mind.

On the contrary, Chen Luyang was heartless, like a butterfly, sometimes flitting around the production and marketing association, sometimes flying around the restaurant, and sometimes flying around the engine booth.
What he didn't expect was that this production and sales association provided the engine factory with a great exhibition and sales opportunity.

Many electromechanical companies were very interested in the engine factory's technology. They not only inquired for a lot of information, but also negotiated many orders.

In just a few days, the engine factory invited many people to visit the factory.

Here, Chen Luyang was happily bragging to his buddies from the engine factory when Cao Qinghang walked over with a sullen face.

"Chen Luyang, come here."

"coming!"

Chen Luyang was startled, not knowing why Cao Qinghang suddenly called him by his full name.

"Mr. Cao, what's wrong?"

Cao Qinghang said with a cold face, taking out a ticket from his pocket: "Here's a ticket for you."

Chen Luyang took the ticket suspiciously: "Legends of Chinatown?"

This is a new play this year. Xiaoling has been clamoring to go see it for a long time but never had the chance.

The ticket price is expensive!

"Mr. Cao, just one ticket?" Chen Luyang felt uneasy. How could you just give me one ticket?
"Do you want it? If not, I'll give it to Xiao Wu." Cao Qinghang said unhappily.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Chen Luyang quickly snatched the ticket back.

Anyone who doesn’t want such a good ticket is a fool!

"Engineer Cao, this isn't the play you and Comrade Xiaohua agreed to watch together, right?" Chen Luyang hesitated for a long time and asked secretly.

"Xiaohua asked for leave to go home." Cao Qinghang said with a dark face.

"Isn't her home here?" Chen Luyang asked curiously.

Cao Qinghang didn't answer, but changed the subject: "Go and see."

"Could it be that another girl has taken a fancy to you and offered you a ticket, but you don't want to go?" Chen Luyang asked.

"Are you going or not? If not, give it back to me!" Cao Qinghang said with a sullen face.

"Go, go, go! Who wouldn't go if it's free?"

Chen Luyang carefully put the ticket away and said happily, "Thank you, Mr. Cao~"

Although there is only one, he can buy another one for Chen Jinyue~
Just grab a seat when the time comes, perfect!

The tickets for the play are available the night after tomorrow.

That afternoon, Chen Luyang rushed to the theater to buy tickets.

But unfortunately, the drama troupe’s tickets were sold out early and there was not a single extra ticket.

So what else are you going to see...

He is a grown man, but he is out of touch with the world.

Instead of going to see a play, it would be more fun to go out for a drink with Song Liaosha and cause trouble for the southern brothers.

Chen Luyang simply gave the ticket to Xiao Wu.

Anyway, Xiao Wu is a bachelor, so he can go and experience cultural enlightenment on his own.

After waiting for the next day, Xiao Wu came over mysteriously and punched him in the chest.

"Xiao Chen, I knew you were nice enough!"

Seeing Xiao Wu's lustful face, Chen Luyang asked and found out that a young female comrade from the Land Bureau was sitting in the other seat of the drama!

That female comrade and Xiao Wu seemed to be attracted to each other.

The actors were performing on the stage, and the two of them were chatting in the audience. As they chatted, they finally talked the female comrade home.

Xiao Wu thought that Chen Luyang specially introduced him to a girl, and he thanked Chen Luyang profusely, but he ended up being quite confused by Chen Luyang.

...Cao Qinghang wants to introduce someone to me?

What does this mean!
……

After the several-day production and marketing association meeting, the next step is a press conference.

Compared with the representatives of the electromechanical companies, the press conference was much easier.

All the employees of the machinery factory who were participating in the exhibition started to perform crosstalk, which made the journalists very happy.

When seeing off the last reporter, Song Liaosha flipped through the records and was surprised to find that the factory had sold more than 2100 cars at this production and sales fair.

In addition, more than 200 toy cars were sold.

The total amount calculated exceeded 6300 million.

This is a huge harvest for the machinery factory!
What made Chen Luyang very depressed was that in recent days, Chen Jinyue's mother came to Dongfang Street to shop every day, and from time to time she would come to the restaurant to sit for a while.

A pair of eyes, like the famous detective Feng Jiuxiang, darting everywhere.

Her mother is here, so it's not convenient for me to stay close to my daughter.

As it was almost the last day of staying in the hotel, Chen Luyang reluctantly went to find Chen Jinyue to say goodbye to her.

As soon as I walked over, I saw Chen Jinyue staying with Chen's mother again.

"Little Chen is here? Come and sit down!" Mother Chen greeted Chen Luyang warmly.

"Hello, Aunt Chen. Our machinery factory's social gathering is about to end, and I'm here to say goodbye to Sister Yue." Chen Luyang said seriously.

"Be careful on the road." Chen Jinyue looked at Chen Luyang with complicated and reluctant eyes.

If eyes could draw silk threads, Chen Luyang would have entered the Spider Cave by now.

Fortunately, Mother Chen was between the two people and did not notice Chen Jinyue's gaze.

She looked at Chen Luyang. The more she looked at him, the more she found him attractive. She smiled and asked:
"Xiao Chen, do you have a partner now?"

"Yes." Chen Luyang then added, "It's just that the girl hasn't officially agreed to me yet."

"What kind of partner is that?" Mother Chen was amused by his words.

"You're still young, there's no need to rush into finding a partner."

"There are plenty of good girls in our hospital. Auntie will help you spread the seeds later!"

"No, no, thank you, Auntie!" Chen Luyang's eyelids twitched and he subconsciously glanced at Chen Jinyue.

"Auntie, I'd better try my best to get the girl's consent as soon as possible."

Originally Chen Luyang wanted to find an opportunity to be intimate with Chen Jinyue,

But Mother Chen was obviously more interested in herself.

Either ask what the girl you like does, or ask what kind of person you like.

After being asked so many questions, Chen Luyang couldn't bear it anymore, so he said goodbye to Chen's mother and Chen Jinyue and left.

Afterwards, Chen Luyang rode his bike to the provincial university.

Recently, students at the provincial university have been preparing to review for their final exams.

The weather was getting colder, and Chen Luyang couldn't bear to trouble his tutors.

He simply sent all the tutors back to school.

I will continue to review on my own, and come to the provincial university to ask them if I don’t understand something.

But today he is not here to study, but to give gifts.

Relying on his position as the workshop director of the factory, Chen Luyang took about 10 toy cars from the workshop.

After arriving at the provincial university, he first gave his toy cars and mung bean cakes he bought from Songting Restaurant to the teachers and classmates he was familiar with.

Then I found Yu Huichuan's dormitory, greeted the dormitory manager, and went upstairs with my things.

In the dormitory, Yu Huichuan was reading and reviewing.

Seeing that it was Chen Luyang, Yu Huichuan immediately led him into the house happily.

"Great, Teacher Xiao Yu! The government-sponsored study abroad quota has been approved, and you didn't even tell me such a big news! If Teacher Guo hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known this good news!"

As soon as Chen Luyang entered the room, he started to question the accusation.

Yu Huichuan smiled and said, "I just passed the first round. I have to go to Pianer City for a retest after the new year. I have to pass the retest first."

"Don't talk about me. I heard that your machinery factory held a production and sales fair a few days ago. Several students from our department went to see the fun and said it was very well organized."

Chen Luyang happily took out the toy car and mung bean cake he had brought with him and said:
"I knew you didn't have time to go."

"This is a toy car produced in our factory. I specially gave you one as a souvenir. Don't think it's a good thing. It sells for three yuan each outside!"

"The mung bean cakes are made by the master chef at Songting Hotel. I also gave you a few pieces. You can eat a few pieces when you are tired from studying tonight."

"Thank you, Teacher Chen." Yu Huichuan happily took the car, fiddled with it, and couldn't let it go.

"By the way. How are your studies lately?"

Chen Luyang felt a little guilty: "I've been busy with the trade fair recently and haven't read for a few days."

Yu Huichuan's expression turned serious: "This won't do, Teacher Chen!"

"The most important thing about studying is staying in shape. Only by studying and reviewing every day can you get good grades. The worst thing to do is to fish for three days and rest for two days."

"Since you're here, I might as well test your recent studies."

After saying that, Yu Huichuan didn't wait for Chen Luyang's consent. He directly moved his roommate's small stool and sat down on it by pressing his shoulders.

"Doing the exercises, Teacher Yu? I can do anything!"

Chen Luyang is now filled with a bottle of dissatisfaction and a mysterious confidence that is half full.

It seems like I can do it as long as I get the test paper!
Yu Huichuan shook his head. "Don't worry about the questions. The main thing is to lay a solid foundation. First, recite the periodic table of chemical elements for me."

Chen Luyang: ...

Quiet provincial university campus dormitory.

A few minutes later, the shameful sound of recitation was heard with a groaning sound.

The dormitory is not soundproof.

At noon, the boys' dormitory opened the windows to ventilate and get rid of the smell, and they all opened the windows at the same time.

"Who is so talented that he can recite the periodic table in the middle of the day?"

The boys in the dormitory next door heard the noise and couldn't help but ask questions from the bottom of their hearts.

Just as I asked, there was a "click" and the window of some dormitory was closed.

Even the noise of reciting the periodic table has become much quieter.

For the entire afternoon, Yu Huichuan reviewed all the basic knowledge points of chemistry to Chen Luyang again.

Not only did he repeatedly emphasize the inaccuracies in Chen Luyang's teaching several times, he also gave him homework!

"There's this part and this part. Come and tell me about it next time."

Chen Luyang nodded quietly and obediently, which was rare.

"Today is Wednesday. Come to me on Friday and I'll check it." Yu Huichuan said seriously.

"Okay, Teacher Xiao Yu!" Chen Luyang answered seriously.

There is only half a year left before the college entrance examination. If I don’t review seriously, failing the exam will be a small matter, but being embarrassed will be a big deal!
On the way home, Chen Luyang specially passed by the old restaurant and gave Daxin some mung bean cake made by the restaurant to try.

During the days of the production and marketing association, everything in the rubber workshop was developing steadily and in an orderly manner under the leadership of the four team leaders.

Even several technical problems with shock absorbers in the ascension workshop were solved and resolved under the leadership of Xiang Guowu.

In addition to these, the thing that made all the comrades in the factory happiest was that the small ditch in the factory finally froze!
After lunch, many people happily ran to the ice of the creek to slide.

In just a few days, six or seven "slideways" of varying lengths had been created on the ice.

Every day, a group of people would go to the ice to play, running and sprinting. Wataru Ebe was the best among them, jumping high every day.

"Luyang-kun!"

When Jiangbian Wataru saw Chen Luyang, he ran over along the ice.

"I came to say goodbye! I'm going home for the New Year."

When Wataru Ebe talked about going home, he couldn't control his joy on his face!

Japan's New Year is very similar to China's New Year's Day. It originally referred to the first month of the year, but now refers to the New Year festival, usually the first 1 days or 3 days of January.

As New Year’s Day is approaching in China, the New Year in Japan is naturally approaching as well.

"When are you planning to come back?" Chen Luyang reached out and covered Jiangbian Wataru's ears, which were red from the cold.

"I'll be back in two or three months. I miss home."

Jiangbian Wataru grinned and bowed deeply to Chen Luyang.

"Luyang-kun, thank you and your family for taking care of me during this time. Thank you so much!"

Chen Luyang also bowed politely and said in return: "Thank you for bringing us this technology. You have worked hard during this period!"

The two people bowed back and forth several times on the ice.

After a few polite words, Chen Luyang asked, "Jiang Bian, I need your help again when I return this time."

Jiangbian Wataru said: "You say!"

Chen Luyang said, "When you get back, please help us keep an eye out for any scrap tires. The factory is producing shock absorbers, and we're running low on rubber."

"If you have extra scrap tires, I'd like to apply to the factory to import a batch of scrap tires."

The company where Wataru Ebe works is a major automobile manufacturer, with an annual production of cars reaching an astonishing 100 million.

They must have plenty of scrap tires.

Instead of trying to buy waste tires from rubber factories every day, it is better to import them directly from Japan.

From technology to raw materials, everything is available!

Wataru Ebe agreed: "No problem! Leave it to me."
