Siheyuan: Start as a truck driver

In the following days, my sister-in-law became the treasure of the family.

Housework such as washing clothes and washing dishes were all taken care of by Liu Yunchang.

Dalanzi got up before six o'clock in the morning and went to the vegetable market to buy fresh fish. My sister-in-law was too old and the doctor told me to pay attention to nutrition.

Wang Weidong often bought some low-priced sheep bones from the canteen and took them home to replenish his sister-in-law's health. Of course, Wang Weidong did not hide this from Yang Maixiang.

Instead of being angry, Yang Maixiang brought malted milk and other supplements to her family, which made Wang Weidong deeply gratified.

Family conflicts are the most difficult to deal with, especially in families with two sons. There are often tensions between the husband and wife. Even if they get along peacefully, they are always peaceful. Sensible girls like Yang Maixiang are rare.

Especially since Yang Maixiang knew that Wang Weidong was busy with the TV factory during this period, she took care of all the housework and the like.

Therefore, Wang Weidong lived very comfortably during this period, and the planning work for the TV factory was also progressing smoothly.

The only thing that puzzled him was that every time he met He Wenhui when he went out, He Wenhui always seemed to hesitate to speak.

His wife was in the house, so Wang Weidong naturally couldn't pay attention to her.

Time passed bit by bit, and in the blink of an eye it came to one morning a month later.

Several cars appeared on the road near Ningzhou Orchid TV Factory.

Liu Shitou, who was in his thirties, had just washed all the clothes of his wife and children. When he heard the noise coming from outside, he hurriedly walked out of the door.

When he saw the car parked at the entrance of the TV factory, his eyes suddenly widened, and he shouted to the second-rate boy who was squatting at the door brushing his teeth: "Secret, are our TV factory going to reopen or something?"

land?"

"Reopening? It's a good idea, don't you think! There is nothing in the TV factory, how can we reopen it!" The second-rate man curled his lips and spat the white toothpaste foam into the ditch on the roadside, then turned to Liu Shitou and said: "

Brother Shitou, you better stop thinking about good things and follow me to the city to move briquettes to the briquette factory."

Er Laizi and Liu Shitou used to be part-time workers at a television factory. They could earn 25 yuan a month, which was enough to support their family.

Later, the TV factory closed down, those regular workers were transferred to other factories, and temporary workers like them were laid off on the spot.

The second laizi's family is okay, both parents are working, and he is not married. He occasionally works part-time in the briquette factory and can eat and drink without any worries.

This is not the case for Liu Shitou. He has a father who is over seventy years old and a child who has just started school. Fortunately, his wife works as a waiter in a hotel in the city and earns fifteen yuan a month, so she can barely make ends meet.

From then on, Liu Shitou became a housewife, and his daily chores were cooking and washing clothes.

The man couldn't make money and couldn't hold his head up. Liu Shitou also wanted to go to the briquette factory to move briquettes with his second wife, but his lumbar spine was injured and he couldn't do that kind of heavy physical work at all.

Hearing what the second-rate man said, Liu Shitou let out a long sigh and said, "You go ahead. I'll go to the TV factory later to have a look. With so many cars, there must be something big going on up there."

"You are such a stupid person." Seeing Liu Shitou not listening to the advice, the second-rate man curled his lips, got on his bicycle and left the messy shanty town.

Liu Shitou originally didn't have high expectations for the reopening of the TV factory, but the floor at home has been swept, the clothes have been washed, and the old father has eaten, so he has nothing else to do now.

"It's better to go and have a look, in case the TV factory really reopens!"

Because his wife took his bicycle away, Liu Shitou was able to walk to the TV factory. Although his home was not far from the TV factory, it was almost ten o'clock in the morning when he arrived.

Liu Shitou took out a tattered towel from his pocket, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked at the gate of the TV factory from a distance.

After just one glance, he was stunned. The signboard at the entrance of the TV factory had been wiped clean.

Liu Shitou remembered clearly that after the TV factory was closed, some workers who were dissatisfied with the closure brought the ink used by the children to go to school and smeared the signboard black.

They are like weak ants who have no way to fight against the decision above and can only use this seemingly childish approach to vent their dissatisfaction.

What makes people rub their eyes even more is that the entrance of the TV factory has been completely cleaned up. It used to be filled with fallen leaves.

Is the TV factory really reopening?

Liu Shitou took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and walked slowly towards the factory gate. When he was still two or three meters away from the factory gate, he was stopped by someone.

"Comrade, there are leaders inspecting the work today, please don't wander around here."

The guard, Uncle Qin, walked out of the guard booth and saw the unkempt Liu Shitou. He thought he was one of those green men fooling around.

"Uncle Qin, you don't know me anymore. I'm Liu Shitou. I used to pass the quality inspection. I used to get off work late and I had to trouble you to open the door for me every day."

Liu Shitou hurriedly took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took one out and handed it over.

Uncle Qin also recognized Liu Shitou at this time, waved his hand and said: "It turns out to be Shitou. It's not like you don't know that I don't smoke cigarettes."

As he spoke, he took out the pipe stick from his back and waved it twice.

Seeing that Uncle Qin still recognized him, Liu Shitou hurriedly stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "Uncle, why do we have so many leaders coming to our TV factory? Do we need to reopen it?"

"Hey, kid, have you been staring at the TV factory?"

Uncle Qin waved to Liu Shitou, motioning for him to come closer, and whispered in his ear: "I can only tell you this news. The higher-ups have decided to restart the TV factory, and the new director has already

Here we are, now leading the comrades above to visit!

Once the equipment and production lines are shipped back from the south, the TV factory can officially start operations.

If your kid wants to go back to the TV factory, this is a good opportunity.

I heard that the new factory director this time is a bold boss. If you perform well, you might even be hired as a regular employee.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Hearing the news, Liu Shitou was so excited that he almost jumped up from the ground. He held Uncle Qin's hand: "Thank you for this letter. If it is true,

When you return to the TV factory, I will definitely buy you two bottles of good wine."

"Forget about the good wine. This new factory director is very strict. I don't dare to drink anymore."

If it had been anyone else, Liu Shitou would have turned around and gone home, waiting for the TV factory to release recruitment information.

But Liu Shitou knew very well that once the TV factory recruits people from outside, there will definitely be a large number of people without jobs.

He doesn't have any advantages at this age, so he needs to be prepared in advance.

....

The large conference room of Orchid TV Factory.

Wang Weidong had already discussed the relevant details with the comrades sent from above, and both parties stood up and shook hands.

It's a pity that there is no camera, otherwise a precious historical picture may be left behind.

"Comrade Hong Chang, you should know that we have made a firm commitment to the leaders above to restart the TV factory this time." Director Wang warned on behalf of the city.

Wang Weidong smiled heartily: "Don't worry, I will definitely live up to the expectations of the city leaders and guarantee to sell our Orchid TVs all over the country, and even across the ocean."

"Just complete the tasks assigned above, and then recruit more workers to solve the employment problem in the city. As for selling overseas, we have to take our time." Director Wang took a breath and said hurriedly.

.

Just kidding, how can he not know the level of TVs in China now? Even the most famous Panda TV can only be sold well in China. People in coastal areas are even more proud to own a TV from China.

Can Orchid TV Factory change this situation?

After some small talk, Director Wang led the team and left the TV factory.

Wang Weidong walked out of the conference room and waved to the deputy director who was standing outside the door: "Deputy Director Niu, you are the former director of the TV set and you know the situation best at the TV factory. You will take me around.

"

Deputy Director Niu nodded hurriedly: "Director Wang, you're welcome, you can just call me Lao Niu from now on. Go this way, did you see it? The two-story building over there is our production workshop."

..”

The two of them walked slowly in the courtyard of the TV factory. Deputy Director Niu was full of respect for Wang Weidong, both in his words and in his attitude.

He was originally the director of the TV factory, under the factory director and deputy director. He was considered the third person and had more than ten subordinates.

However, after the TV factory was closed, Deputy Director Niu was transferred to the lumber factory. The lumber factory's leadership team was already in place. In addition, Director Niu was relatively upright, so he was pushed out to serve as the director of the labor union in less than half a year.

Although the level has not changed, he can only be responsible for distributing some toilet paper and helping unmarried workers connect with others.

Deputy Director Niu himself was also an ambitious person. Within two years, he fell ill because he was not reused.

This was more in line with the wishes of those in the lumber factory. Not only did they send a special person to express condolences, the director of the factory also personally told Director Niu to take good care of himself and to wait until he was fully recovered before going to work.

Good guy, when Director Niu, who was lying on the hospital bed at the time, heard this, he was so angry that he almost walked over.

He had already made plans to retire from the lumber factory after recovering from his illness. Although it seemed absurd to retire in his forties, it was not without precedent.

Just when he was about to submit his application for medical leave, the city called him over and told him that the TV factory was about to reopen and that he needed to go back and serve as a minister.

Director Niu himself was an ambitious person, so he naturally agreed and tore up the sick leave application form when he got home.

When he returned to the TV factory, he discovered that the new factory director was actually a young man in his thirties, and this young man used to be a cook.

Of course, Director Niu didn't mind this at all. As long as this young man could set up a TV factory, even if he was a primary school student, Director Niu would call him uncle.

The TV factory was built under the watchful eye of Director Niu, and they have a very deep relationship.

"That's it for today. The TV factory will definitely face many difficulties when it reopens. You, the old director, will need to put in more effort then."

"Don't worry about this. Even if I risk my life, I will build up the TV factory!" Deputy Director Niu assured, patting his chest.

....

After more than two hours of introduction, Wang Weidong also had a general understanding of some aspects of the TV factory.

The current situation of the TV factory is better than expected. The factory buildings and supporting facilities are complete. Especially the power system is intact under the careful maintenance of the concierge, Uncle Qin. All it takes is to bring back the customized production line from the Southern Machinery Factory and install it.

.

The biggest problem now is to recruit workers for training as soon as possible.

You can find coal workers, machine workers, and even train drivers in Ningzhou City.

But it is not that easy to find careful and skillful electronics factory workers who can work on the production line.

The educational level of workers in this era was generally relatively low. Even those with a primary school education had to undergo strict training before they could take up the job after entering the TV factory.

Thinking about these things, Wang Weidong rode his bicycle and walked outside the TV factory.

After walking a few steps, he was stopped by a man, who was naturally Liu Shitou.

After hearing the news about the reopening of the TV factory, he did not go home, but planned to wait and see.

Liu Shitou is a smart man. He knows that once the news about the recruitment of workers in the TV factory spreads, there will be countless applicants.

Compared with those young people, he has no advantage at all. His education level is low and he is older.

"You, you, are you the director of the TV factory?" Liu Shitou looked Wang Weidong up and down with an expression of disbelief.

In his opinion, if you want to become a factory director, you must be an older comrade, so that you can control the situation.

This guy is actually a young boy, how can this be possible?

Wang Weidong frowned and said, "I am the new factory director. Comrade, are you okay?"

Liu Shitou didn't care about the issue of age anymore. He quickly took out his cigarette and said with a smile: "Comrade director, my name is Liu Shitou. I am the quality inspector of the original TV factory. No, I heard that our TV factory has another

It’s reopened, so I was wondering if I could give my name first.”

"Quality inspector?" Wang Weidong took the cigarette and said with a smile: "Then do you know how to inspect the produced electronic products?"

Liu Shitou said: "Of course I know. Before I entered the TV factory, I was photographed studying at a TV factory in Beijing for two months. Not only do I know how to inspect, but I also know a lot about the production line."

Liu Shitou's words awakened Wang Weidong. Yes, before the production line was built, he could send people to other TV factories to learn.

After the workers come back from their studies and have a basic foundation, they will be trained according to the production manuals of later electronics factories.

Then wouldn’t the workers’ problem be solved?

Seeing that Wang Weidong didn't speak for a long time, Liu Shitou thought that he thought he was not good enough, so he said sarcastically: "Director, don't worry, although I am older, my eyesight is very good, and I will never delay things."
