Scholars in the courtyard

Yu Haitang continued to announce the curtain.

"Now, I would like to ask Deputy Director Chen Gong to announce the list of outstanding employees this year."

Chen Gong raised his voice and spoke to the paper about the outstanding personnel of this year.

However, as Chen Gong read out, the first one was not Yang Xiaotao, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

Until the end, the eighteen progressive employees who were named came to the stage. After Chen Gong ended, Yang Xiaotao's name was not there.

Everyone was surprised, even their enthusiasm weakened a lot.

Behind him, the bangs were gloating and showing disdain.

Based on the ways of being an official that he has studied for many years, Yang Xiaotao obviously violated the taboo of "showing off one's edge". If a subordinate doesn't know how to hide one's strength and bide one's time, and is more prominent than the leader, which leader would like it?

Obviously, Liu Haizhong felt that the leadership of the steel rolling mill was suppressing Yang Xiaotao.

Who makes Yang Xiaotao young? Doesn't this kind of unwritten rule in official circles often appear in dramas?

Drama, like life, comes from the people, so it does not necessarily mean it is not true.

At that time, Yi Zhonghai looked at Yang Xiaotao who was sitting firmly and noticed something.

However, he was not sure what these leaders meant, so he could only watch.

People in the third workshop even started talking. Even Wang Guodong felt that there was a mistake.

However, Yang Xiaotao is as stable as a mountain, because he knows that no one can take it away from him, and he does not care about what is not his.

Eighteen people came on stage, and Yang Youning and Xu Yuanshan personally gave them prizes.

Each person has a towel and an enamel jar with a red five-pointed star printed on it.

There was another burst of congratulations from below, but there was a lot missing from this sound.

Some people even set their sights on Yang Xiaotao in the front row. If he was not involved in this conference, there would inevitably be some trouble.

Sure enough, before Haitang announced the curtain this time, Liu Huaimin had already walked in front of the crowd.

"Comrades, there is another piece of good news to be announced here today."

"The Huinong pressure well researched and designed by Comrade Yang Xiaotao has been approved by superiors after practical experiments. In the future, our steel rolling mill will have another task."

"Everyone is welcome."

bang bang bang bang

Now, people finally understood why Yang Xiaotao was kept. It was for the finale.

Yi Zhonghai clapped his hands very inappropriately, but they were so shocked that he was numb.

Liu Haizhong looked disappointed. His study of being an official was still too superficial, and he didn't notice it at all.

Still have to work hard.

It still needs practice.

"Comrade Yang Xiaotao, in the past year's work, we have completed it."

Then Liu Huaimin began to talk about Yang Xiaotao's achievements, one after another. Everyone was convinced after hearing this.

I’m not convinced. I am a ninth-level engineer. I know how to repair rolling mills, design heating furnaces, and let 28 factories across the country learn from me. I can also design pressurized water wells. It is estimated that after the new year, someone will come to learn from me.

This kind of ability can't be matched even by patting a horse.

Lou Xiao'e was sitting among the women. There were voices praising Yang Xiaotao on both sides. She couldn't help but feel proud. This is my team leader, the team leader of the R\u0026D team.

"Next, I announce that Comrade Yang Xiaotao has been awarded the title of Advanced Individual. This is the first person to win this honor since the establishment of our factory."

"Everyone is welcome."

Nationwide?

Not a steel rolling mill?

bang bang bang bang

In an instant, the enthusiasm in the venue was ignited.

Obtaining this honor requires not only the approval of superiors, but also a higher-level review before it can be awarded.

This honor is definitely the first since the steel rolling mill was established.

I thought that Yang Xiaotao would be published in the newspaper and become famous throughout the country.

The cheers continued below. Yang Xiaotao suppressed his excitement, straightened his clothes, stood up and greeted Pang Guo and Chen Bin on his left and right. He also turned around and waved to the location of the third workshop, and then walked onto the stage step by step.

At this moment, everyone's focus was on him.

"congratulations."

"Thank you, it's all thanks to the leadership's cultivation."

The two shook hands, and then Liu Huaimin smiled and took a piece of good news from the side and presented it to Yang Xiaotao personally.

Yang Xiaotao glanced at it and saw a line written on the big good news, 'Comrade Yang Xiaotao performed outstandingly and achieved remarkable results in 1962. He was awarded the title of Advanced Individual. This certificate is specially issued as an encouragement. ’

The whole thing is written in calligraphy, and there is a special font size and seal stamped underneath. You can tell at a glance that it is heavy.

Yang Xiaotao held it solemnly on his chest and showed this honor to everyone.

Below, Yu Haitang was close enough to see clearly. The envy on her face made her whole body tremble.

How could such an excellent man be so anxious to start a family?

Not far away, Yi Zhonghai took a deep breath. If the book last time had made Yang Xiaotao stand firm on justice, he was born with political correctness.

This time, he became a leader among workers, and even a model among workers.

In this era when workers are the masters of the country, such people are even more difficult to deal with.

Not to be messed with either.

Behind him, Liu Haizhong was not a fool either. He had obviously thought about this and his face was pale.

After Liu Huaimin handed out the good news, Yang Youning stepped forward, took out a red envelope and handed it to Yang Xiaotao.

Yang Xiaotao took it but didn't open it. It was probably either money or tickets, but it felt a little small.

"There are good things in here. If it weren't for the huge contribution this time, I wouldn't be willing to give it to you."

As Yang Youning said, Yang Xiaotao didn't open it to look at it, but held it tightly in his hand.

"Thank you, director."

"Stop being polite and just say it in advance if this happens again."

"Yes, promise to tell you in advance."

The two of them knew a lot of places to talk, so they said a few polite words and walked away. Everyone below saw what was in the paper bag in Yang Xiaotao's hand, but unfortunately Yang Xiaotao had no intention of opening it.

Finally, Xu Yuanshan stepped forward and took a thermos bottle and a belt from the side.

"Thank you, Uncle Xu."

"Good job!"

Chen Gong came from the side with an envelope in his hand, "Work hard and don't betray your trust in you."

This time, it's thick.

"yes!"

Finally, Yang Xiaotao walked off the stage with a bunch of things.

I thought today's meeting was over and everyone was preparing to leave. Tomorrow is the Chinese New Year, so I just paid my salary and went home to buy some things.

Unexpectedly, Yang Youning, the factory director, talked endlessly.

First, we made a summary of this year, then a summary of the meeting, and at the same time, we mobilized for next year's tasks.

Yang Xiaotao felt sleepy even while sitting on the stool. Looking at the time, it was already past three o'clock. He was worthy of being a factory director. His talk was worth learning.

Just when everyone thought it should be over this time.

Yang Youning picked up the water glass and took a sip. After putting it down, he continued talking with great interest.

Yang Xiaotao suddenly felt that it was not easy to be a leader, and there were so many things to think about.

"Last year, our factory gained a lot from the heating furnace,..."

It's the same old story again.

The enthusiasm of the group of people below subsided and they began to chat.

“…at the unanimous request of the rolling mill leadership and approved by superiors.”

Yang Xiaotao suddenly became serious, and many people around him who were still listening were also solemn.

Listen to this, something is wrong.

Sure enough, Yang Youning and Xu Yuanshan looked at each other. He was responsible for the logistics.

Xu Yuanshan nodded, and Yang Youning continued, "This year, all employees in the steel rolling mill can receive three taels of pork."

"What? Three ounces of pork?"

"Hey, what did the factory director say just now? I didn't pay attention!"

"What? Three ounces of pork?"

"What pork?"

bang bang bang

Yang Xiaotao was the first to applaud, followed by applause that had never appeared before.

Yang Youning and Liu Huaimin looked at each other and smiled. Sure enough, spiritual encouragement must be provided, and material encouragement must not be left behind.

"Long live……"

With roars, the meeting came to an end.

In the cafeteria, a group of people from the security department stood aside, and Zhao Chuanjun led the people to supervise and inspect.

Workers who got the news were watching and supervising.

In the middle, tables were put together one after another, and pages of pork were brought in by people from the security department and placed on the table. Hundreds of people in the surrounding kitchens clearly divided their duties and stood in their respective positions.

Liu Lan looked at the red and white pork in front of her and felt a little short of breath.

How much meat is this?

"Listen carefully, let me tell you something!"

The logistics director led a group of canteen directors and stood in front of everyone. "This is the benefit that the leaders of the steel rolling mill strive for. Each person has three taels of pork."

Ouch…

The people in the kitchen are equally happy because they also have a share.

"Okay, hurry up and divide the meat. It's ready. Don't be short of it, don't let the worker brothers find it."

Everyone quickly got into the mood, some cut the meat, others weighed it, and then filled it up, and three ounces of meat were taken away and placed out.

After the meeting dispersed, Yang Xiaotao followed everyone in the third workshop to receive the reward, which was a big pile and carried back to the office.

A sheet, a quilt, and a thermos bottle...are all placed on the table.

However, Yang Xiaotao picked up the good news and read it again and again. Lou Xiao'e who was on the side also came over and said that this thing was similar to a marriage certificate.

Thinking of this, Lou Xiao'e felt a little sad.

Seeing Yang Xiaotao put the good news aside and take out two envelopes, Lou Xiao'e had no intention of leaving. She also wanted to see what was inside.

Yang Xiaotao didn't hide it from her. He first picked up the envelope handed to him by Chen Gong, opened it and saw a stack of signatures inside.

Yang Xiaotao didn't count them in detail and put them aside. Lou Xiao'e glanced at them and didn't care.

Then, both of them set their eyes on the red envelope.

Yang Xiaotao opened it skillfully and was already prepared for a surprise.

Take a look at what good things Yang Youning said.

A piece of cardboard folded in half and fell down, and then Yang Xiaotao opened it.

"This is…"

Yang Xiaotao looked at the two words at the top, special offer.

Lou Xiaoe read the content and covered her mouth.

On it, there is a special instruction for the camera.

camera!

Not even when their family was the principal of the steel rolling mill.

And now, the man in front of him will have it in his hands.

What a great gift!

Yang Xiaotao read the instructions above carefully.

This special instruction was obviously approved by superiors to the steel rolling mill.

And looking at the name of the camera, Shanghai brand, you can tell that it is made in China.

Nowadays, these things are all purchased and sold under a centralized system after they are produced.

Part of it is used as a domestic special supply and distributed to some departments for use.

Even the director of the factory that produces cameras may not be able to get it.

As for wanting to circulate it in the market, there is no need to think about it at all.

But he didn't expect that Yang Youning would use it as a reward for him.

This reward is really great.

I saw Wang Hao holding a camera two days ago, and I felt itchy in my heart. I thought about when a camera would come out of the exchange counter. Even if it cannot be used openly, it would be good to use it secretly and record beautiful moments.

Now, if you feel sleepy, give me a pillowcase. This gift from Lao Yang is really great.

Next to her, Lou Xiao'e was still deep in thought, and Yang Xiaotao coughed and put the paper away.

Since it is a special supply, the items should be in the factory.

Yang Xiaotao planned to find Yang Youning and get the things.

Lou Xiao'e reacted and smiled sheepishly.

"The canteen distributes meat, why don't you go there earlier?"

"Ah, oh, I'll go."

Lou Xiao'e left disappointed. She also wanted to see what kind of camera it was.

Yang Xiaotao followed and went out to find Yang Youning.

As for his share, he will get it later.

After all, he is not a pound of meat, nor is he a pound of meat.

When he just left the auditorium, Wang Guodong said that the steel rolling mill had a lot of pork this time, and if there was any leftover after the distribution, they could buy some more.

Of course, this is an internal price and a benefit to leadership.

When I arrived at Yang Youning's office, I felt as if I had known that Yang Xiaotao would come back. There was Liu Huaimin in the room. The two of them were chatting and laughing. When Yang Xiaotao arrived, they quickly asked him to come over and talk.
