Siheyuan: the beginning to realize the freedom of cooking

Director Zhao of Tangshan led a group of people from Red Star Factory into the office.

After passing a few cups of hot tea to several people, he expressed his thanks repeatedly.

"Director Yang, did you have a hard time on the road this time? Come, drink some hot tea, and there are some snacks here."

As he said that, Director Zhao arranged for someone to bring a small plate of snacks for each person, and put them in front of everyone.

"Oh, Director Zhao is too polite. This is the mutual help between our brothers and factories. Then today we will rest early, and Director Zhao will also go back to rest early, take a rest, and try to get the business done during the day tomorrow." After exchanging a few pleasantries, Director Yang asked Director Zhao to arrange a place to live.

That night, under the arrangement of Director Zhao, the group of Red Star Factory moved into the staff guest house.

Lin Aijun, Sha Zhu and Xu Damao were arranged in a four-person room.

Xu Damao was carrying his bag, and after pushing the door open first, he chose a bed by the window, and directly placed his bag and movie equipment on it.

"Don't touch my things, my tools are very valuable."

"Xu Damao, don't worry, it's just two nights. Who cares to touch your things." Silly Zhu rolled his eyes.

While talking, there was a knock on the door.

"Dong, dong, dong——!"

Lin Aijun was the closest to the door, and opened it as soon as he stretched out his hand.

Standing outside the door was Mr. Ma, the driver of Director Yang.

Master Ma glanced into the room: "The three of you are all here. The factory manager asked me to inform you to gather in the dining room of the guest house at 08:30 tomorrow morning."

Xu Damao rushed to the door and asked with a smile on his face, "Master Ma, which room does Director Yang live in?"

Master Ma glanced at Xu Damao and smiled knowingly.

He has been the driver of Director Yang for many years, and he follows him here and there, and there are many people who flatter him.

So from Xu Damao's actions in the Red Star Factory in the evening, Master Ma knew what Xu Damao was thinking.

But everyone is in the same unit, and they are on a business trip. If they want to talk to Director Yang for something, it's not easy for me to get involved.

So Master Ma thought for a while, and told Xu Damao: "The factory manager is in room 307 on this floor, but I'm already tired from the car ride, so don't bother the factory manager anymore."

Lin Aijun: "Master Ma, let's meet in the dining room on time tomorrow morning."

Silly Zhu: "Understood, how can I bother the factory manager, I'm tired, wash up and go to bed early."

Xu Damao looked at Master Ma and said, "Master Ma, go and rest."

Master Ma saw that he had been notified, so he turned and left.

After Xu Damao closed the door, he rolled his eyes.

For this business trip, he made a lot of preparations in advance.In addition to asking Qin Jingru to prepare cigarettes and alcohol, he also prepared two film tapes.

One is "Guardian of the Railway" produced by Changchun Film Paper Studio. It tells the story of the U.S. emperor's attempt to overthrow our military column after the bombing of the Yalu River Bridge by the U.S. imperialists during the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea.

This disc was prepared for the leaders of the Ministry of Metallurgy, and it was played in public.

He also secretly prepared another set of "Jin Ping Mei" released by Shaw Brothers in 1955, which told the story of what happened after Pan Jinlian was forced to marry Wu Dalang.

This disc is actually just a drama, for backup.In case the leader wants to watch something new when he is taking a break, he can also choose one more option.

Considering that the words "Jin Ping Mei" gave others a bad impression, Xu Damao tore off the label on the outer box of the tape and made a mark for himself.

Xu Damao thought about the good wine and cigarettes he had brought, so he walked to the window next to the window calmly, took out the travel bag, and walked out quietly when Lin Aijun and Sha Zhu were not paying attention.

At this moment, Sha Zhu was washing and washing, and the sound of closing the door caught his attention.

He looked sideways and asked, "Brother Junzi, what is Xu Damao doing with this bag?"

Lin Aijun, who was lying on the bed reading a book, had actually noticed Xu Damao a long time ago, and smiled.

"What else can he do? He went to Director Yang to warm up his relationship."

"Tsk tsk tsk, Xu Damao is really good at it." Sha Zhu sighed.

"Actually, being able to do things is not a shortcoming, it's also called being a human being. This thing is equivalent to a lubricant for officialdom. But it depends on the occasion. Doing it on an inappropriate occasion will backfire." Lin Aijun smiled.

"Brother Junzi, what do you say?" Silly Zhu scratched his head, he was a cook, and he only relied on his craftsmanship to make a living, so he knew very little about these methods.

Lin Aijun sat up when he heard the words, and said seriously: "Let's take the matter of flattery as an example, there are actually two types.

The first one is to make it known to everyone, no matter who is before or after. This is called a dog leg and will be scolded by others.But existence is reasonable, and this kind of existence has its own value.Which senior official doesn't have a younger brother who is in front of the saddle and behind the horse?

There is also point-to-point communication between people. This is the reason why you often see people around you who seem to have similar qualifications and skills as you are suddenly promoted.

Sometimes it may not be a bribe of real money, it may just be a small gift during the holidays, but the expression of the heart is in place.Times will change, but human nature will not.

Besides, when the leader has the opportunity to promote someone, do you think he will think of the unknown passer-by, or the impressive person who knows how to behave? "

Silly Zhu nodded half-understood: "Brother Junzi, then you say that Xu Damao is on the front and back, can Director Yang take a fancy to him?"

"It's hard to say, if Director Yang is the biggest one present, then it's not a big problem, as long as he likes it. But when there are other superiors around, Director Yang may not like it. We just do our own thing well. " said Lin Aijun.

"That's right, I'm a cook, and I just need to cook the meal. I have a handicraft, so I can eat anywhere. Director Yang told me to make it according to the specifications, but it must be exquisite and delicious. I made it Order scallops and fresh mushrooms, and cook a secret sauce, let me see if it spills."

After Silly Zhu finished speaking, he got up and went to the bed next to the window to find out his backpack, took out the secret sauce from it and checked it.

When he casually threw the bag back on the bed, the bag brought Xu Damao's two reels of film.

Two boxes of film reels fell out of the box.

Silly Zhu was shocked, knowing that this thing was important and Xu Damao wanted to use it, so he quickly put the sauce bottle in his hand on the table, knelt down and put Xu Damao's film back into the box.

"Brother Junzi, there is no label on it, so I don't know which plate is right for which box?"

"I heard him say that this time there is only one movie "Guardian of the Railway", which probably means that the upper part and the lower part are separated, and it's done after putting it in."

So, Sha Zhu nodded, put the two plastic discs into the box, and put them back where they were.
