Rebirth 1975: Tore up the call-back order at the beginning

Qingcheng. A state-owned hotel!

Zhou Yang and Lao Xu, old friends, were naturally very happy to meet each other.

While chatting with each other, Zhou Yang suddenly remembered a major event related to the development of the printing factory.

Without any hesitation, he immediately asked Xu Yonghua: "Old Xu, there is something I would like to ask you to do for me?"

"What's the matter, tell me, as long as you can do it, you'll be fine!"

Xu Yonghua is still very grateful to Zhou Yang. It can be said that Zhou Yang has contributed a lot to his promotion to his current position.

As long as what Zhou Yang wants to do doesn't embarrass him, Xu Yonghua will definitely not refuse.

"Do you have anything to do with the publishing house?"

"Publishing house, which publishing house are you talking about?"

"Mass Publishing House!" Zhou Yang said.

"Of course there is. It's not like you don't know the origin of our bookstore and Mass Publishing House!"

Then Lao Xu said again: "Why, are you going to publish a book? If so, I can contact the Mass Publishing House for you to ensure that you are fine!"

Old Xu has this self-confidence. Xinhua Bookstore has a deep relationship with Mass Publishing House.

Even, these two units were originally one family a long time ago.

Of course, that dates back to the Yan'an period decades ago.

At that time, Xinhua Bookstore integrated publishing, distribution and printing. They published hundreds of books under difficult conditions, which had a great influence in the whole country.

Due to the environment at that time and the needs of the revolution, the functions of Mass Publishing House were merged by Xinhua Bookstore, and the two became one.

However, after liberation, due to the needs of the country, the higher authorities divided the Xinhua Bookstore into three and rebuilt the Mass Publishing House on the basis of the editorial department of the Xinhua Bookstore.

Because of this, many people describe Xinhua Bookstore as "brothers" to Mass Publishing House, and the relationship between Mass Publishing House and Xinhua Bookstore as "separate brothers", which is a good one.

And Lao Xu himself has always worked in Xinhua Bookstore, and has accumulated a lot of contacts in the cultural propaganda front over the years, including many leaders of Mass Publishing House.

I dare not talk about other major issues. If it is just a simple publication, the problem should not be big.

"I do have a plan to publish a book here, but it's not right now. I want to ask you for some help!" Zhou Yang said.

"What's the matter, tell me!"

"You don't know, we have built a new large-scale printing factory over there. Since it has just been established for a short time, there is no business so far!" Zhou Yang said.

Old Xu quickly understood, and said immediately, "Do you want me to contact the Mass Publishing House for you?"

"Yes, as far as I know, Mass Publishing House is going to publish the fifth volume of Selected Works of Mao. Can you recommend it for us, and let our printing factory become the printing unit for Mass Publishing to publish Selected Mao [-]!" Zhou Yang said.

"Publishing Selected Works of Mao, is this true? Why don't I know!" Old Xu asked in surprise.

No wonder he was so surprised. It stands to reason that the Xinhua Bookstore should be the first group of people to know about such an important task as the publication of Selected Works of Mao.

But this time it was different, they really hadn't received any news so far, which made Lao Xu very surprised.

"I've also heard it from people. I'm not sure if it's true or not."

Then Zhou Yang changed his voice and said again: "But this kind of thing is related to the life and development of our printing factory. I would rather believe it than believe it!"

Even so, Zhou Yang knew it was true.

Preparations for Mao Xuan V began in 1967, and it was officially published by Mass Publishing House on April 1977, 4. Judging from the time, it should be the final preparations before publication.

And this incident is definitely a far-reaching event for the domestic printing industry.

In the past few years, the printing industry has not been very prosperous, and many printing factories are almost unable to survive.

However, because of the release of Mao Xuan Wu, a large number of printing units received business orders from Mass Publishing House, which ushered in a short-term recovery of the printing industry.

Although this situation only lasted until around 82, a total of less than five years, and then the publishing industry fell into a downturn again.

But this does not prevent Zhou Yang from wanting to win the order from Mass Publishing House!

For Babaoliang Printing Factory, if it can win the business order from the Mass Publishing House, it is not only a matter of making money, but more importantly, it can take this opportunity to catch the line of the Mass Publishing House.

This is crucial for the next development of the printing factory!

"I can't give you an answer to this matter for the time being. I'll check it when I go back. If there is such a thing, I will try my best to help you get a business!" Xu Yonghua said.

"Okay! Then I will leave this matter to you, Old Xu!"

"We're talking about this, isn't it strange!" Xu Yonghua said with a smile.

"By the way, old Xu, how is your Xinhua Bookstore doing?" Zhou Yang asked again.

Xu Yonghua sighed and said: "It's still the same, normal business cannot be carried out, and it is barely maintained by the state's finances!"

Zhou Yang's heart moved, and he said immediately: "Old Xu, our printing factory has been built, and we will have business contacts with you in the future. You can take better care of our small factory then!"

If you want to make teaching materials, you must be inseparable from Xinhua Bookstore.

And as far as the current situation is concerned, only a large unit like Xinhua Bookstore can sell a certain type of books in the province and even the whole country at the same time in the shortest time.

However, due to some well-known reasons, Zhou Yang did not directly talk to Lao Xu about the sale of "Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-study Series" and the collection of simulated questions for the college entrance examination.

After all, the country has not yet announced the resumption of the college entrance examination, and the policy is not very clear.

More importantly, "Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-study Series" is still being criticized. Anyone who dares to sell such books will make a mistake.

Even if Zhou Yang said it, Lao Xu would not agree.

"I want to take care of you, but it's a pity that the current Xinhua Bookstore can't carry out many businesses normally. There's more than enough to do!" Old Xu said helplessly.

"Who knows what will happen in the future, maybe it will return to normal soon!" Zhou Yang said with a smile.

"I hope so!"

But obviously, Lao Xu didn't have much confidence in this matter.

In the following time, the two did not continue to entangle on this topic, but chatted about other things!

In this way, the two happily chatted while eating and drinking.

Before he knew it, Zhou Yang drank a little more.

Afterwards, he felt dizzy, his head became dizzy, and then he gradually lost consciousness...
