The flowers in the factory of rebirth are too fierce

When I returned to Ge'an, it was already the end of the year.

Two red lanterns were hung at the gate of Jinghuayuan, with a red banner in the middle with the four characters "Celebrate the Spring Festival" written on it.

It’s still the familiar taste of the Northeastern Spring Festival.

Mother, godmother, and sister led a large team of security guards in Jinghuayuan, and they began to cut elbows, burn pig's trotters, and steam sticky bean buns. They were busy and very fulfilling.

On the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, Tan Mingqiu drove a car, carrying Fan Tian and Hu Zi to Ge'an to celebrate the New Year.

Zhou Tian also came back from other places, and the two brothers came to Lin Zhiyuan for a drink that day.

According to Zhou Tian, ​​Xie Zhiwen's business scale has expanded again, and China City Market has opened several branches in Europe.

This year’s Spring Festival is unusual for Le Gang.

Many construction company workers who returned from Yangcheng happily told their relatives about the strange things in the south.

At the same time, more engineers and workers and technicians from the equipment outlet are ready. After the Spring Festival, they will also rush to Yangcheng. This year, the Yangcheng Branch project will officially enter the second phase, including factory construction and equipment installation.

There are more employees who have signed up for the Yangcheng branch project and are paying attention to every piece of news about Yangcheng that comes back from the big company.

January 27th, New Year’s Eve.

There was a great reunion in Jinghuayuan. The Lin family, Su family, Zhou family, plus Tan Mingqiu's family of three, a total of more than 20 people gathered together to have New Year's Eve dinner, with endless laughter and laughter.

In the evening everyone gathered in front of the TV to watch the Spring Festival Gala.

Come on, let's meet in ninety-eight. Come on, let's meet in ninety-eight. Let's meet in the silver moonlight. In the warm affection. Come on, let's meet in ninety-eight. Come on, let's meet in ninety-eight. Let's meet in the sweet spring breeze. eternal youth

……

Beautiful singing sounded, and the 1998 models came.

Before people could be happy for too long, the long hair appeared on stage, and the song "Start Over" attracted a lot of criticism.

Looking at success or failure in life is just like starting over from scratch. All the honors of yesterday have become distant memories.

I have spent half my life working hard, and tonight I am walking into the wind and rain again...

In 1997, state-owned enterprises entered a period of comprehensive reform, and a large number of workers were laid off across the country. What happened in the Northeast in the early 1990s was happening everywhere.

Countless families watched TV and cursed.

What they don't know is that this song is just the beginning of causing trouble for people across the country. Next year, another even more disgusting sketch will appear in front of everyone. The sentence "If I don't get laid off, who will get laid off?" How many laid-off workers got so angry that they smashed their own TVs.

For Ge'an at this time, the pain brought by the word laid-off is no longer as sharp as before.

I have cried, scolded, and been in pain, but now I am numb and used to it.

Life has to go on, right?

In the year, I finished the journey day by day while visiting relatives and friends, eating and drinking.

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Lin Zhiyuan unexpectedly received a New Year's call from Bai Fei from eastern Guangdong.

"Mr. Lin, happy New Year! I'm Bai Fei, do you remember me?"

"Of course you remember, Reporter Bai, we are comrades who have lived and died together. Happy New Year to you, and help me take good care of Secretary Bai and your mother."

Bai Fei mustered up the courage to make this call. She was very happy to hear Lin Zhiyuan's enthusiastic voice, "Mr. Lin, let me tell you some good news. After you left Yangcheng, I contacted the High School Affiliated to Yangcheng Conservatory of Music. They We have agreed to accept them, and sister and brother Amei and Azai have enrolled in school. When school starts in March, I will go to Nha Shan Village to pick them up."

"Reporter Bai, you have done a great and great deed of great merit. We have agreed that I will pay for the tuition and living expenses of Amei and Azai. However, there is one thing I may have to break my promise. In March, I may pay more I’m busy and don’t have time to go to Yashan Village to pick them up in person, so I’ll leave it to Reporter Bai.”

The two said a few words and then hung up the phone. Bai Fei held the phone in her hand and was lost in thought.

She knew that she and Lin Zhiyuan had no future, but she still couldn't help thinking about him. During the Spring Festival of 1998, I was filled with lovesickness.

February 4th is the beginning of spring, the eighth day of the Lunar New Year.

On the first day of work, a team expansion meeting was being held in the conference room of Dabai Building in Le Gang.

Chairman and General Manager Jin Huaying announced an important personnel adjustment.

Due to work reasons, Lin Zhiyuan, the former general manager of the new materials company, resigned from all positions in the new materials company, and was replaced by Jiang Daqing, general manager of the railway transportation company.

At the same time, the investment department of the original new materials company was separated and upgraded to Lesteel Investment Company. The office was located in Shenzhen City, and the general manager was concurrently served by Comrade Lin Zhiyuan.

This news is no longer new to the team members and party and government leaders of the second-tier companies present. There were various rumors circulating as early as a year ago, but now it has only been verified.

Lin Zhiyuan and Jiang Daqing made brief speeches respectively.

Lin Zhiyuan didn't say anything. He just mentioned that Ge'an and Yangcheng were too far apart. He had limited energy and could not take care of both companies.

Jiang Daqing was really moved at the meeting, his eyes were red, and he thanked his superiors, especially Lin Zhiyuan.

The second topic of the meeting was that the Yangcheng branch project will enter the second phase in 1998. The construction company has completed most of the road and railway projects, and the large forces will withdraw to Ge'an, leaving only a few branches in the project. Yangcheng continues the construction of factories, office buildings and other projects.

At the same time, equipment installation work will be officially put on the agenda.

The equipment departments of large companies, machinery companies, mechanical and electrical installation companies, and the equipment departments of subordinate factories and mines must be prepared and go to Yangcheng in batches as planned.

The third topic of the meeting is that by the end of this year, the Yangcheng Branch may be completed ahead of schedule and officially put into production, so the first batch of Lesteel employees who signed up for the Yangcheng Branch project must be ready now.

At the same time, in the second half of this year, the Yangcheng branch will also officially start recruitment.

At the end of the meeting, Jin Huaying made a concluding speech.

"Comrades, 1997 is a year worth remembering for Legang. In this year, Legang was listed on the market as a whole. Although the production and sales of Legang experienced a certain decline, the overall trend was upward. This It is the result of the joint efforts of all Legang people, but we cannot relax even a little bit. We must continue to deepen system reform and technological innovation. Enterprise development is like sailing against the current. If we do not advance, we will retreat. We have not forgotten the wave of layoffs in the early 1990s. ? If you want to keep your current happy and stable life, you have to work harder..."

After the Lantern Festival, on February 16th, Lin Zhiyuan's family of three, including Su Qiancheng, godmother, Aunt Wang, and Shen Juan, boarded a plane to Yangcheng.

The old man's greatest hope was to see the Yangcheng branch officially put into operation. He had nothing to do in Ge'an, so he went to Yangcheng with his grandson-in-law.

At the same time, at the Ge'an Railway Station, a team of 400 people, engineers, technicians, and skilled workers from the mine equipment departments of various leather steel plants also boarded the train heading south.

When the southeast wind blows, it’s time to dance in the sky.

As soon as Lin Zhiyuan returned to Yangcheng, he immediately got into work mode.

The first shipment of pellets from Samba Country has arrived at Shennan Port.

Lin Zhiyuan rushed to the port in person and watched the huge crane transport a ship full of high-quality pellets to the site that had been built in advance.

These are the future raw materials for the Yangcheng branch.

Residential communities that have been completed and simply renovated already meet the conditions for entry.

Lin Zhiyuan handed over the task of allocating dormitories to Chen Jiafu and Xue Zhaokuan in the headquarters office.

These residential areas will be temporarily allocated to the construction workers and equipment installers of the Yangcheng Branch in the form of dormitories. After the Yangcheng Branch is officially put into operation, they will be officially allocated to employees in the form of monetary housing allocations.

Xie Wei and Xue Zhaokuan were assigned to the same dormitory again.

Xie Wei happily walked around this house. It was a two-bedroom apartment with an area of ​​more than 90 square meters. In addition to the two of them, there were also two staff from the headquarters agency living there.

Most of the other dormitories are like this, each housing four to six people.

The bathroom and kitchen have been simply renovated, allowing for cooking and bathing. The conditions are many times better than the previous temporary dormitories.

After visiting the room, Xie Wei lay down on his bed, leaning on his arm, looking forward to a better life in the future.

"When Xiaoyu comes in the second half of the year, we can settle down in Yangcheng. Xiaoxue, then you have to show me the back door and give me a house with good floors."

Xue Zhaokuan happily agreed, "Brother Xie, don't worry! I'll let you choose first when the time comes, and I'll keep whatever you like."
