Revival Road

Chapter 46 Chen Yan and Li Zhibin
On Saturday night, Chen Yan's roommate, You Benling, who works in the Propaganda Department, asked Chen Yan to help revise a manuscript.

"Tell me, what's the benefit?" Chen Yan took the typed draft that You Benling handed over.

"A meal of kebabs."

"Deal." Chen Yan glanced at ten lines, and quickly read the manuscript of less than [-] words, "No, I can't change this kind of fake and empty article. I can't eat lamb skewers."

The manuscript is the experience of learning the spirit of the [-]th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. Chen Yan has always been insensitive to current affairs and politics, so naturally she can't change such articles.

"Can't change it? It's hard now." You Benling had a bitter face.She always thought that Chen Yan, who was good at writing official documents, would definitely be able to solve her problems.

"Are you looking for your Meng Fan? He has a good writing style. He is also the secretary of the Youth League branch of the research institute and understands politics. Besides, I don't see anything wrong with your manuscript."

The relationship between You Benling and Meng Fan has been made public, and they are about to rent a house and move out.

"Don't mention it, old Cui was scolded by Mr. Tao in the afternoon. The cause was a report by Mao Dezhen. You know, that kid is a stick, and he messed up a good manuscript. Mr. Tao read the factory report Not happy, and even criticized the Propaganda Department as useless."

Chen Yan became interested, "What did he write that made the boss angry?" Mao Dezhen was the man Liu Xiuyun hooked up with her, but she didn't like that guy, and the relationship had long since ended.Because of this, Liu Xiuyun was very upset, and Chen Yan already felt it.

"Isn't it because of the employee who committed suicide? Secretary Chang personally went to his house to condolences, and the funeral was quite satisfactory. Because Mr. Tao took the lead in donating money, the leaders all pocketed it. Old Cui wanted to flatter him and asked Mao Dezhen to write An article was published in the factory newspaper, but it turned out to be flattering. Mr. Tao said that the propaganda department has no shame in publicizing the company's mistakes as achievements. He took several recent newspapers and criticized Mr. Cui. Knowing the situation, saying that two-thirds of the factory newspaper is devoted to speeches and whereabouts of the leaders is simply unreasonable. We are ordered to rectify it. Now, old Cui is in a hurry. Let's do it again...Chen Yan, the reason why I ask you for help is because you work in the factory and know Mr. Tao's thinking better..."

"I think highly of me. To be honest, I can't even meet people face to face. How can I understand people's likes and dislikes?" , You really need to think about this matter carefully."

"That's right, this article is the scheduled front page headline, isn't it fatal? Tell me, why did Mr. Tao follow the factory newspaper?"

"You don't understand Mr. Tao's mind. This sentence is on the point." Chen Yan became interested, "The article is for people to read, so you must first understand who the reader is. For this kind of thing, the average employee is If you don’t read it, you can’t understand it. I think most of the middle-level officials will not read it seriously, but the company’s leaders will read it, especially the main leaders. Since Mr. Tao is not satisfied with the factory newspaper, it shows your current style of running the newspaper It’s not to his liking. By the way, what you said just now... is that there are too many reports on the whereabouts of the leaders...I understand, he thinks that you report too few front-line employees. That’s right, it must be the case.”

"The mass line? But this is a theoretical article, and there are fixed routines."

"Who said that? Theory needs to be connected with practice. I think Mr. Tao's style is completely different from Song Yue's... You, reinvent the wheel, and digest the above spirit into the reality of our factory, and you will definitely be able to pass the test."

"Easy to say. Can you write an article for me to read?"

"Look, Mr. Tao insisted on going to the big cafeteria to eat, and offered to renovate the bachelor building. When he was free, he would go down to the grassroots by bicycle. Note, he was riding a bicycle. He made up the wages he was in arrears when he first arrived. He is really serious Follow the mass line. Reiko, you should follow this line of thought and write.”

"That makes sense. Then, then I'm going to the office. I can't write here."

"Aren't you looking for your brother Meng?"

"Old husband and wife, why are you looking for him? I'm going."

You Benling opened the door and saw Li Zhibin standing outside.

"Oh, Chief No. [-], do you want to check the work or come to us, Miss Chen?"

"I'm here to ask Leader Chen for instructions." Li Zhibin replied with a smile.

"Then I won't disturb your secret conversation." You Benling went to the office to work overtime.

"Oh, a rare visitor." Chen Yan tidied the messy bed, "Isn't Mr. Tao going to have a meeting? It's over so soon?" In the afternoon, Li Zhibin notified the three directors of the general manager's office to attend the meeting, which was heard by Chen Yan.

"The meeting has been cancelled."

"Why did you cancel it?"

"Suddenly the leader of the brother factory came, and Mr. Tao accompanied him, so it couldn't be opened."

"Why don't you follow Mr. Tao?"

"The leader doesn't want me to follow. Oh, so beautiful." Li Zhibin picked up the frame on the desk. The photo was a "pornographic photo" of Chen Yan wearing a swimsuit at the beach, which was indescribably charming and enchanting.

"Put it down! Don't look at it!" Chen Yan snatched it and stuffed it under the pillow, "It's rude."

"Placing it on the table is just for people to appreciate."

"You are not eligible."

"Who is qualified?" Because it was a two-person world, Li Zhibin rarely showed a frivolity suitable for his age.

"I won't chat with you anymore. I was talking about publicity with Reiko just now. Why did Mr. Tao take care of the publicity?" Chen Yan was a little embarrassed.

"How do I know this? Chen Yan, I'm going to take a rest. What are the arrangements for the holidays?"

"I haven't thought about it. I asked you how Mr. Tao managed the publicity, which made Reiko have to work overtime."

"Chen Yan, let me tell you something, don't be unhappy."

"I'm annoyed by your face the most. I know what you're talking about, okay, I won't ask any more. Is that okay? No. [-] Li?"

"Chen Yan, you have a strong pen and are smart and beautiful. As long as you pay attention to the secretary's rules, you will definitely have a better future than me." Li Zhibin returned to his usual seriousness.

"What future do I have? With such a small amount of money every month, I won't starve to death. I have no chance. If I have the chance, I will definitely leave."

"You have to believe that the factory will get better. Mr. Tao will definitely be able to make the factory run well, really. Besides, maybe you will be promoted in two or three years, so that's not a problem. Go and count, these years How many people have gone from the general manager's secretary to the leadership position?"

"If you want to be promoted, you are also promoted! You are the number two chief. Where will it be my turn?"

"Not always."

"By the way, you just said that Mr. Tao will definitely be able to do a good job in Red Star. Why do you say that?"

"I think Mr. Tao is different from them."

"Why is it different? Okay, okay, don't talk about the foul."

"It's okay to tell you. It should be said that everything is different. Mr. Song is basically a bad guy, but Tao is always a good guy."

"If Song Yue isn't mad when she hears your words? I heard that Tao is always single, the fifth diamond king. Tell me, will Tao always take a fancy to me? Why don't you find a chance for Mr. Tao? Introduction?"

Li Zhibin immediately had a big head, "You, you."

"What's wrong with me? He's a bachelor, and I'm an unmarried girl, can't I?" Chen Yan squinted at the other party.

"How many people are you looking for to go camping on Mount Weiya?" Li Zhibin decisively changed the subject.

"Rafting? It's too early. It's cold over there, so I'm sure I won't be able to get in the water." When Chen Yan said this, Li Zhibin knew it was over.Otherwise, she would definitely stick to the topic just now.

Li Zhibin remembered Chen Yan's swimsuit photo just now, "Not necessarily, at least he can climb mountains. There is a new international mountaineering track over there, let's compete?"

"Who will compete with you? I won't go."

"Then, contact me when the time comes? I'll look for a car." Li Zhibin's goal was basically achieved, and he could tell that Chen Yan had agreed, so he left.

This is the third time for Li Zhibin to "see" Chen Yan's dormitory.This is the first time since resuming the position of No. [-] chief.

Two months ago, Chen Yan broke up with her second boyfriend.The other party is the second official generation of Red Star, a middle-level official son.Chen Yan hated that guy's arrogant behavior. His father was just a branch manager, but he put on a posture of walking sideways in the red star, and he was messy on the first date, which made her very uncomfortable.After barely maintaining the relationship for two months, Chen Yan made up her mind to break it off.

After he was convinced that Chen Yan had returned to the single team, Li Zhibin began to attack Chen Yan. They were both factory secretaries and knew each other very well.At that time, Li Zhibin followed Song Yue, elusive all day long, and didn't have many opportunities to meet alone.Later Song Yue had an accident, and Li Zhibin was actually laid off and moved back to the big office. Director Zhang didn't assign him a specific job, so he was very depressed.Wang Zhiping, who was originally jealous of him, naturally couldn't do without cynicism, but Chen Yan didn't. He even enlightened him twice. Wang Zhiping, on the other hand, became listless again.

Chen Yan didn't dislike Li Zhibin, nor was she very tempted.Chen Yan put the mirror frame back on the desk, thinking about Li Zhibin who had left.There is nothing wrong with him. He doesn't smoke, drink, or play cards. He rarely attends singles' parties, and he seems to be very out of group.Chen Yan didn't even know about Li Zhibin's hobbies. She only knew that his parents were both workers. Judging from his clothes and cell phone, his family background was probably average.

"Is he suitable? It would be great if he was taller and more handsome..." Chen Yan thought.

She was most devoted to the first time, which was still in college.The other party's family is in CQ, and he is an authentic southerner, but he has the physique of a big northern man.Chen Yan can always think of his heroic appearance on the football field. He is a defender, mainly to block the impact of the opponent's striker on the goal. Every time he fell to the ground and made a tackle, Chen Yan, who was watching the game, screamed loudly and was fascinated.

Because of employment problems, the two broke up in their senior year.He didn't want to stay in Province G, and he was unable to solve Chen Yan's work in CQ.Chen Yan finally learned the cruelty of life. Love basically belongs to the spiritual realm, while marriage is completely in the material realm.Marx said long ago that people can only talk about literature, art and other things when they have enough food, clothing, housing and transportation.So Chen Yan began to become realistic, especially the work of the general manager taught her some things that she didn't understand before.Therefore, Vice President Liu introduced Red Star's second-generation officials to her, which fit her new understanding of life.But materials cannot completely replace spirit, so she resolutely returned to the single team.

As long as Mr. Tao does not follow Song Yue's old path, Li Zhibin will undoubtedly step into the middle class, she firmly believes.Can Li Zhibin, who has stepped into the middle class, meet his material needs?If you look at Red Star's standard of living, it should be fine.Chen Yan has discovered that happiness is always relative, because everyone always lives in a certain circle.As long as you are doing better than most people in your circle, you will be happy.Except for a very small number of people who don't know how to be satisfied.But what about spirit?Although Chen Yan experienced a failed love, she did not give up on love.There is always love, so everyone is looking for it.Of course young people are looking for love, and many middle-aged people who have died of love are also looking for it.This is enough to show that love exists, otherwise why would they toss like moths to a flame?
Maybe Li Zhibin is a good choice.
