Rebirth 1975: My Wife is Love-Brained

I was an educated youth from the capital, working in the countryside in Zhangzitou.

Chen Yan had told Xu Haidong about this situation before.

When Chen Yan heard Xu Haidong asking about his situation, he was moved, "I've learned all of them!"

"Huh? Is this true? This matter is very important, don't fool me!" Xu Haidong stared at Chen Yan a little nervously.

"Why would I try to fool you? I learned Russian in middle school and English in college!" Chen Yan said seriously.

"So you can understand English? How good is your level?" Xu Haidong excitedly grabbed Chen Yan's arm.

Of course I understand English Chen Yan!

But I didn’t learn that in school!

Before the 1970s, the unified foreign language taught in schools was Russian, and he was sent here to work in the countryside after only three years of college!

I haven't had much serious exposure to English!

The reason why he knew English was that he re-learned it after returning to the city in his previous life.

Chen Yan not only understands Russian and English, but also German, Spanish, etc. ... a total of seven or eight mainstream international languages.

Of course, if these words were to be said now, it would be absolutely unbelievable.

So Chen Yan could only use the excuse that he had studied it in college.

Anyway, things are so chaotic these days, who knows what you have learned?

"It's okay! Daily communication and newspaper reading shouldn't be a problem!" Because he didn't know why Xu Haidong asked him this, Chen Yan thought about it and gave a relatively conservative answer.

Although Xu Haidong looks like a good person, who knows what he is planning.

These days, there are enemy spies.

If someone put a hat of an enemy spy on his head, Chen Yan felt that he would have no place to cry.

"Come on, follow me quickly!"

After getting Chen Yan's affirmative answer, Xu Haidong didn't think twice and pulled Chen Yan's arm and hurried back.

"Wait a minute, Haidong, what's going on? I told you, I learned English at that time because of the school's teaching requirements, but it has nothing to do with me!" Chen Yan looked at Xu Haidong vigilantly and explained.

Xu Haidong was stunned for a moment, then he slapped his forehead, "Look at what happened! I was so busy that I forgot to explain it to you! Don't worry, this is a good thing, let's talk about it while we walk!"

"This... works!" Chen Yan nodded, pushed the bicycle, and walked shoulder to shoulder with Xu Haidong.

On the way, after Xu Haidong's explanation, Chen Yan finally figured out what was going on.

The story begins with the chemical plant in the county!

Two years ago, the county received some kind of order from above, and planned to build a state-owned Lanshan County Chemical Plant!

Because it is located in Jinzhou, which has abundant coal resources, Lanshan County Chemical Plant mainly produces some coal chemical products.

Chen Yan didn't know what it was exactly. He was just an ordinary educated youth and had nothing to do with the state-owned factory.

"Recently, two imported machines were sent over from above! Several experts came and taught the workers in the factory how to use these two machines! The person who was mainly responsible for the operation was a master! Unexpectedly, this master fell ill a few days ago! He passed away in an instant! And this year, the tasks in the factory are heavier! Now that half of the year has passed, if we delay any further, the tasks in the factory will not be completed at all!"

"Huh? Are you from the chemical plant?" Chen Yan was stunned for a moment and asked Xu Haidong in surprise.

"My father is the director of a chemical factory, and I am a worker in the chemical factory! Hehe! This is the job my father arranged for me!" At this time, Xu Haidong wanted to ask Chen Yan for help, so he simply revealed his identity!

No wonder! He goes to the movies every other day and smokes Grade B cigarettes.

But Chen Yan knew that although the Lanshan Chemical Plant was located in Lanshan County, it was a formal prefecture-level unit and was directly connected to the Prefectural Party Committee.

It turned out that Xu Haidong's father was only the director of a chemical plant, but his rank was no lower than that of the director of the Lanshan County Revolutionary Committee!

"You kid, you're a low-key guy, but you have such a big background!" Chen Yan couldn't help but say to Xu Haidong with a smile, while in his heart he labeled this guy as a second-generation.

"What background? My father is my father and I am me! Okay, let's talk about this later, brothers! Chen Yan, you really have to help me this time! If you can help me deal with this matter, you will be my real brother!" Xu Haidong smiled, and then said to Chen Yan nervously.

Chen Yan stopped and asked, "You've been talking for a long time, but I still don't know what you want me to do! Let me make it clear in advance, although I went to college, I didn't study mechanical operation! The old master in your factory is gone! I can't help you!"

"That's not it! Listen to me first! Didn't we arrange an expert to teach us before? But the expert is too busy! As soon as the old master got into trouble, we contacted him! But the expert has gone to another place to guide the students on the job, and he can't come back for a while! Finally, we came up with a compromise! He mailed the operating instructions to us! But... they are all in foreign languages! No one in the factory knows them! We need to find someone to translate them!"

After Xu Haidong said this, Chen Yan suddenly understood.

"You mean, just let me translate this English instruction manual?"

"Yes, that's what I mean! We have found many people in our county, but none of them can help! I think you are from Beijing and a cultured person, so maybe you can solve this problem! Don't worry, Chen Yan! You won't be helped in vain! We will pay you according to the normal translation manuscript!" Xu Haidong said sincerely.

Chen Yan thought for a while and said, "Let's talk about the money later! I can only say that I will try my best! After all, mechanical operation requires a lot of professional skills and involves some professional vocabulary. I don't know if I can do it!"

"It's okay! Just do your best!" Xu Haidong said with emotion.

After Chen Yan figured out what was going on, he breathed a sigh of relief!

As long as you don’t mess with yourself!

And if it works this time, I can also make friends with Xu Haidong's father, who is definitely a big shot! It will be a great help for many things I will do next!

On the way, Chen Yan's mind was working rapidly, thinking about his future development plan!

Xu Haidong saw that Chen Yan was a little distracted, so he thought that Chen Yan was too nervous. He advised Chen Yan, "Don't worry! Just do your best! If it really doesn't work, we can think of another way!"

Chen Yan was stunned for a moment, and his expression became strange.

No?

How could that not work!

When he was at his peak in his previous life, he had published countless international papers, and his professional level was basically at the top of the industry!

Now it’s just a machine operating manual, how could Chen Yan be stumped!

Chen Yan had never thought about the situation where he couldn't translate it.

The reason why he did this was just because he was thinking about... how to get some benefits!

There’s no way, I’m afraid of being poor!

Now that there is an opportunity, I must grab it as much as possible!

Otherwise, how can I give my Xiaoyu a good life?

"A man with a lovely wife at home naturally has to...work hard to make money!" Chen Yan added silently in his heart.

quickly!

Under the leadership of Xu Haidong, the two arrived at Lanshan Chemical Plant.

"Wait a moment, I'll go find my dad!" Xu Haidong took Chen Yan to an office, then turned around and hurriedly went to find someone.

quickly!

A man in his fifties who looked somewhat similar to Xu Haidong walked in. He looked particularly energetic in his Zhongshan suit, and his whole body exuded the aura of someone who had been in a high position for a long time!

"Dad! This is the friend I was talking about, Chen Yan, the educated youth!" Xu Haidong introduced him.

"I am Haidong's father! Xu Zhanyuan! Comrade Chen Yan, hello!" Xu Zhanyuan smiled and took the initiative to shake hands with Chen Yan.

Chen Yan shook hands with the other party calmly, "Hello, Director Xu, I am Chen Yan, nice to meet you!"

A hint of surprise flashed in Xu Zhanyuan's eyes!

This young man is not simple!

He had come into contact with some educated youth who had gone to the countryside to work in the fields. When they saw him, they were either servile or nervous and at a loss.

But there is no one as calm and composed as Chen Yan.

After all, he has been a leader for so many years and has an aura about him that most people cannot bear.

At this moment, he actually felt a little more anticipation for what was to come.

"Haha! Chen Yan, you have a good relationship with Haidong! Don't call me factory director, just call me uncle! We are all family! Don't be so polite!" Xu Zhanyuan said with a smile.

When Chen Yan heard this, he immediately laughed, "Then I won't be polite! Uncle Xu!"

"Haha! That's right!" Xu Zhanyuan said with a smile.

Then he said to Chen Yan in a serious tone, "Haidong has already told you about the matter, right? Do you have confidence?"

Chen Yan thought for a moment and said, "Translation is a very professional thing, especially for mechanical operation. The change of a word may lead to an operating accident! So, I think I should take a look at the operating instructions first!"

Xu Zhanyuan nodded secretly!

The feeling Chen Yan gave him was just one word: reliable!

"Okay then! Let's take a look at the things first!"

He then quickly took Chen Yan to the workshop office and had someone hand the operating instructions to Chen Yan.

The operating instructions were more than ten pages long and were written entirely in English. Xu Zhanyuan and Xu Haidong, father and son, felt a headache reading them.

But Chen Yan just glanced at it, then smiled and said, "It can be done!"

"Really? That's great! Chen Yan! I'll leave this matter to you! Translate it as soon as possible! Three days, can three days be enough?" Xu Zhanyuan asked nervously.

Time was running out and he really had no other choice, otherwise he would not have found a young educated youth like Chen Yan.

However, after he finished speaking, he saw Chen Yan slowly shook his head.

Xu Zhanyuan's heart skipped a beat. "Why? Is the time too tight? Uncle knows that this is a bit difficult for you! You should think of a way and do it as quickly as possible. The tasks in our factory are too heavy and I'm afraid we won't have enough time! Don't worry, as long as you can solve this problem, the factory will never treat you unfairly!"

At this time, Chen Yan smiled and said, "Uncle! You misunderstood me! I meant that it won't take three days, half an hour or so! It's just over ten pages, it looks like a lot, but there's actually not much content! Give me a notebook and we'll translate it now!"

what?

Half an hour?

At this moment, Xu Zhanyuan was completely dumbfounded by Chen Yan's words.
