Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

Chapter 619: The news came back, inspiring people

In the evening, President Liang of the Hong Kong Island branch came to visit the Huo Mansion as promised.

When Mr. Huo told President Liang the news, he was so excited that he was speechless and his eyes turned red on the spot.

Because he secretly calculated in his mind that the antennas he had sold could be exchanged for about 5 million US dollars in foreign exchange.

This is simply unimaginable!!!

Maybe someone would say that five million is not a lot for a country at this level!

But everyone must not forget that throughout the entire 65 years, the country’s foreign exchange reserves were only about US$ million.

Judging from this data alone, five million is already a lot, and this was achieved in just a few days.

What if it takes a year? I can't even imagine it.

That's why President Liang lost his composure like that.

"Mr. Huo, I just lost my composure and made you laugh. Now, on behalf of the motherland and the people, I would like to thank you for all you have done for the country."

Hearing this, Mr. Huo did not take credit for it, nor did he intend to laugh at the joke. Instead, he simply waved his hand and spoke very modestly.

"President Liang, you're welcome. We are both descendants of the dragon. Everything I have done is what I should do. I don't deserve your thanks."

"Mr. Huo is still so humble. Don't worry, the motherland will not forget you who have made contributions to the country." President Liang emphasized again.

Facts have proved that the country has not forgotten Mr. Huo. From the highest standards adopted for his later funeral, it is not difficult to see that this is a recognition of his life's achievements.

After all, not everyone has that qualification.

That night, Huo and Liang had a very pleasant conversation. After both parties finished the dinner happily, President Liang thanked him again before saying goodbye and leaving.

After returning to the base, President Liang was very excited and wanted to report the good news to the organization as soon as possible.

But due to time constraints, he did not notify the country that night.

Instead, he contacted the General Office directly via a dedicated phone line the next day as soon as he got to work...

Deputy Director Yu never expected to receive such great news as soon as he came to work in the morning.

He was a little depressed some time ago, but suddenly he was as energetic as if he had been injected with chicken blood, walking back and forth in the head office.

You know, although this project was led by the Ministry of Machinery and the Institute, due to some special reasons, their General Office was also involved, and he was the direct person in charge.

From this you can imagine that this is simply the result of walking.

"Boss Lai, good news, good news, great news!"

Looking at Deputy Director Yu's excited expression, I had a feeling that it must be related to the antenna sales.

"Comrade Changyuan, don't be anxious. Sit down and talk slowly."

"Thank you, Mr. Lai."

After Deputy Director Yu sat down, he quickly took out a piece of letter paper, which contained the detailed data he had just recorded, and handed it to General Lai.

"Boss Lai, I just received news that the antenna is selling well overseas. Here are the detailed data. Please have a look."

"Really? Then I'd like to take a closer look."

Although Mr. Lai was excited inside, he was a man with a big heart and was relatively calm.

He took the letter calmly and read it carefully.

After a moment, Lai Zong slowly put down the letter and said with a smile, "Please connect me to Comrade Zhengguo's call."

Hearing this, the secretary standing beside him quickly picked up the phone and called the institute...

At the research institute, since Sun Zhengguo went to inspect the workshop, it was Zhang Yucheng who answered the phone.

When he learned that the other party was Mr. Lai, Zhang Yucheng's heart couldn't help but tremble.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lai, our director has gone to inspect the workshop. I'll go and notify him right away."

"Okay! Then I'll call you back in ten minutes."

"Okay, come on, Boss."

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yucheng rushed downstairs as if he was on Hot Wheels.

Finally, he found Sun Zhengguo chatting with Deputy Director Liao in the lathe workshop of the machinery factory.

"Director, hurry up, the chief called."

"What? I'll be right there."

Sun Zhengguo didn't even bother to say hello, and just like Zhang Yucheng just now, he ran towards the research institute.

Deputy Director Liao behind him was extremely envious.

After returning to the office and seeing that there was no movement for the time being, Sun Zhengguo took a breath and asked Zhang Yucheng who was a step slower.

"Yucheng, what did you say when you came?"

After hearing this, Zhang Yucheng smiled awkwardly.

"Director, I'm just a secretary. What can Mr. Lai say to me? But I can tell that Mr. Lai has a good tone of voice. It should be a good thing!"

"I hope so."

Sun Zhengguo stopped speculating, thinking that the answer would be clear soon.

Soon, the phone rang again, and Sun Zhengguo picked up the phone without wasting a second.

"Boss Lai, I'm Sun Zhengguo, may I ask what instructions you have?"

"Comrade Zhengguo! I have good news for you. The antenna is selling well overseas. We have achieved great success this time. Thank you on behalf of the organization!"

Faced with this sudden good news, even Sun Zhengguo was mentally prepared.

But when he heard what Mr. Lai said in person, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Then a look of ecstasy appeared on his face.

"Boss Lai, I wonder what exactly is the great success you mentioned? Can you tell me so that I can give the majority of cadres and employees some peace of mind."

After hearing Sun Zhengguo's question, Mr. Lai on the other end of the phone suddenly remembered this.

He quickly picked up the piece of letter and spoke according to the data on it.

"Comrade Zhengguo, we just received news that the total sales of antennas are about 90,000. In addition, Sakura's agent has come to us and promised annual sales of no less than 1 million. Negotiations are still ongoing...

That's roughly the situation. I'll have someone send a copy to you later. You'd better be mentally prepared. You'll have to work hard during this period and stock up more goods. At the same time, you'll also have to be prepared for expansion."

"I understand. Please rest assured, I will complete the task."

"Yes! I believe you. If you encounter any difficulties that you cannot solve, you can call me in person. No matter how busy I am, I will give you priority in solving the problem."

"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Lai."

……

After finishing the call, Sun Zhengguo sat in the chair, still thinking about what Mr. Lai had just said.

But Zhang Yucheng next to him was as anxious as a cat's claws and couldn't wait to know the result.

So he asked: "Director, I just heard you and Mr. Lai talking about the antenna. How many antennas did you sell? If it's convenient, please tell me!"

"What's the inconvenience? We've sold more than 90,000 sticks in total, and we're negotiating with a million-level agent..."

Sun Zhengguo was in a good mood and didn't keep Zhang Yucheng in suspense, so he blurted out the answer directly.

"Oh, Yucheng, go call Lao Li and the other two. We need to hold a small meeting to discuss the next plan."

"Okay! I'll go right away."

Zhang Yucheng hurried out to call for help, but he did not reveal anything.

Something as outstanding as this must be announced by the director himself.
