Siheyuan starts to eat the old man

Chapter 372 The First TV in the Rolling Mill

Li Pingan was really angry. The employees who were busy outside could hear the loud voice clearly. Everyone looked at the door of Li Pingan's office.

"Young man, tell me about you. What are you doing when you are so angry? It hurts you so much. Sit down quickly and drink a cup of tea to quench the fire." Pour another cup of tea for Li Pingan.

Staring at Wu Yajun firmly, Wu Yajun still looked at Li Pingan with that fake smile on his face, but his eyes were full of jokes.Li Pingan gradually calmed down, secretly annoyed that he couldn't hold back for a moment and was overwhelmed by this grandson.

Sitting back on the sofa again, the expression on his face gradually became softer. After taking the tea that Wu Yajun poured again and drinking it in one gulp, he put on the same smile as Wu Yajun.

Seeing Li Pingan recovering so quickly, Wu Yajun still had a smile on his face, but put away the banter in his eyes.

"I've accepted this task. When will the delivery be delivered? Can you give me an accurate answer, Chief Military Officer?"

"Oh? So straightforward, don't think about it anymore? The difficulty of completing this task is not low."

"Since the chief of the military department has given me such a great credit with such kindness, he will definitely not allow me to push it out. Since it is already doomed, all I can think about now is how to accomplish it."

"Refreshing, the factory considers the difficulty of this task, and the time will be relaxed until the end of the month."

It is now the 16th, and there are still 14 days before the end of the month, so there is still plenty of time.

Li Pingan went straight to the core difficulty of the task and said, "Chief Military, you can entrust me with the task of purchasing TV sets, but do you think you can arrange some TV tickets for me?"

Yes, the procurement task in the factory this time is to purchase more than two TV sets. The first domestically produced black and white TV set was the Capital Brand TV set produced in Jinmen in March 58.

Due to the relatively late start of the TV industry in China, it has not been possible to produce TV sets on a large scale until now. The national TV output last year was only more than 4000 sets. From the beginning of production to the present, the total number of computers in the country is less than two million units.

At present, I do not know how many factories in the domestic market want to buy a TV, but there is no way. Although there are TVs for sale in department stores, there is no channel to buy them except for national key units or certain special groups of people. to TV tickets.

"That's natural. When I entrust you with the procurement task, it is natural to coordinate a TV ticket for you. However, our factory only allocated one TV ticket this time. You need to find a way to purchase the extra TV. "Wu Yajun said, reaching into the pocket of his jacket, and put the TV ticket in his pocket on the coffee table like a baby.

Li Pingan scolded Wu Yajun's ancestors for eighteen generations in his heart, gritted his teeth and accepted the TV ticket, and then he was not in the mood to continue talking to Wu Yajun, so he waved Wu Yajun out and lay down on the chair. Rubbing his temples and thinking about where to get a TV.

The TV ticket given by the factory can go directly to the department store to pick up the TV, but Li Pingan has no idea how to get the other one.

As for other things, my little relationship can still work hard, but for TV, even if I can find Teacher Wang, let alone others, not many people know what a TV is these days, let alone talk about it. It's about buying channels.

Putting the TV ticket into the warehouse, the irritable Li Pingan decided not to let himself have a headache alone, and planned to ask Chen Youfu to see if he had any good solutions.

"Television? Do you think I look like a television? I've never used that thing before. How can I find a way for you?"

In Chen Youfu's office, upon hearing Li Ping'an's intention, Chen Youfu spurted out the water he just drank.

Fortunately, he hid quickly. Li Pingan, who was not wet, looked at Chen Youfu with a resentful expression. If there is no way, there is no way. What kind of water did you spray? made.

"Chen Chu, why did the factory assign such an obviously impossible task? Could it be Wu Yajun's grandson behind the scenes?"

Chen Youfu thought for a while, slowly shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "No, since Wu Yajun dared to give you this task, it means that this task is real, and the factory only gave you a TV ticket , it is estimated that the other director Li wants to move to his house.”

Well, the plan to go to Li Huaide to talk about canceling a mission was also in vain. It was originally added by him. He wanted to seek personal gain, so how could he cancel it so easily.

"I do know where TVs are sold, and they don't need a ticket, but it's not particularly easy to buy."

Hearing this, Li Pingan regained his energy and hurriedly asked: "Chen Chu, tell me, where can I buy it? As long as you don't need a ticket, even if it's hard to buy, I'll find a way to get it for him."

"Did you know that there was a store opened on Jianguomenwai Avenue last year?"

"Did you mean the Friendship Store?"

"Yes, it's there. I've heard people say that there are all kinds of good things in it, and there's no ticket required. It's just that the foreign currency is accepted there."

Li Pingan was silent for a moment, and looked at Chen Youfu speechlessly: "Leader, don't tell me if I have foreign exchange, even if I have foreign exchange, they won't let me in."

Chen Youfu cast a glance at Li Pingan, picked up his enamel jar again, took a sip of water slowly, and then said unhurriedly: "You can't enter, and foreigners can't enter? Don't be so rigid in your mind. "

"It makes sense, it does make sense, the leader deserves to be a leader, I will study it carefully"

Li Pingan instantly understood what Chen Youfu meant, and after a little thought, hey, this really makes sense. Although there are not many foreigners now, there are also many, especially in the capital. If you want to, go to the embassy Squatting in the area for a day, you can always see a few foreigners.

But this method can only be used in the end when there is really no other way. It can be changed to other years, but it doesn’t work now, and there are risks now.

At that time, if there is really no other way, then find an Albanian to come out and buy a TV. This country is currently fighting with China, and it is safer to use someone from their country to buy it.

With the bottom line in mind, Li Pingan no longer felt anxious. First, he took the money and drove the jeep to the department store to buy the TV, and then slowly looked for another TV.

The people in the financial office heard that they were going to buy TV sets for the factory, and the whole office was in a commotion. TV manufacturers, a rarity these days, not many people in China have watched TV, if they can follow them to buy TV sets Come back, that must be the envy of everyone.

Considering that Zhang Youcai's daughter-in-law works in a department store, it would be easy to communicate in case of any problems, so Li Pingan chose Zhang Youcai's general among the accountants who actively signed up.

In this way, Li Pingan drove a jeep, carrying a briefcase with money in his hand, and Zhang Youcai, who was glowing with red face, went straight to the department store amidst the envy of the crowd.

When you go to a department store, there are TV counters lying sideways, and you are not even allowed to try the TV. They will directly guide you through the purchase process, pay and invoice, and take the machine away.

TV sets these days are really not cheap, as little as 800 yuan, which can be saved by ordinary workers without eating or drinking for two years.

Looking at Zhang Youcai who was sitting on the co-pilot seat nervously hugging the cardboard box containing the TV, Li Pingan couldn't help but joked: "Brother Youcai, you can just put the TV behind you, there is no need to keep hugging it." Now, you are still preparing to carry me all the way to the factory."

"Look at what you said, the TV is such a precious thing, what if it breaks on a bump in the back, I can't afford it if I sell it"

"No, no, isn't it just two years' salary? What's the matter? You and your daughter-in-law saved it for a year without eating or drinking."

"Stop talking, drive seriously, I don't dare to move now, for fear that the TV will fall off me"

For the rest of the journey, Li Pingan stopped talking, and the little jeep drove steadily on the wide road.

When the two rushed to the rolling mill, there was a circle of people around the gate of the factory office building, all of whom came for the first TV set in the factory.

"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, lean back, the TV is such a precious thing, don't let us crush it"

Wang Youde, the chief of the security department, stood up to maintain order, and directed a few people from the security department to circle around Zhang Youcai, who was holding the TV, using his body to block the flow of people, so as not to be pushed by the people around him.

"Section Chief Wang is right, everyone gives way, don't touch the TV"

"Get back, don't squeeze, you are responsible for breaking the TV"

The workers were so excited that under the protection of the security department, Zhang Youcai walked into the office building with difficulty.

It was even more exaggerated when going up the stairs. While clearing the road in front, the security department sent two people to help Zhang Youcai carry the box. There was another one in front of him stretching out his hands and holding it under the box, protecting the TV in all directions without dead ends. machine.

Li Pingan, who was following behind, almost laughed out loud when he saw this funny picture.

Leading the people who carried the boxes to the small meeting room in the factory, he directed them to put the box containing the TV on his desk, then waved the spectators to the corridor

Too many people came, and the conference room was so crowded that there was no place to step down. How could I fiddle with the TV if I didn't drive them away.

Amid the grievances and reluctance of the crowd, Li Pingan kicked out most of the people in the meeting room. After the meeting room was empty, Li Pingan sat on a chair and waited quietly.

"Ping An, this TV set is here, hurry up and unpack the box and get the portrait out." Seeing Li Pingan sitting on the chair, Wang Youde was not in a hurry to open the box, and hurriedly urged Li Pingan to hurry up.

"Yeah, Section Chief Li, get the TV out and let us have a look."

"Yes, yes, Section Chief Li, hurry up."

"We're all waiting to get to know each other long"

"What's the hurry, the TV is on, I can't run away, I will open the box when everyone arrives." After speaking, regardless of the anxious people, Li Pingan closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Just kidding, this is the first TV set in the factory, and the leaders haven't come yet, if I dismantle it in advance, it will be eye drops for the leaders.

Soon, the senior cadres in the factory rushed over after receiving the news. This group of people came and circled around the TV box. No one asked to unpack the box. They were all waiting for Li Huaide's arrival.

"Ah, the first TV set in this factory has been bought so soon. It's a good thing, a good thing. Comrade Ping An deserves praise."

Li Huaide, who was inspecting the workshop, heard the news that the TV set had returned, and hurried over from the workshop. Seeing the box of the TV set on the table, he happily stepped forward to have a look, and praised Li Pingan in public.

"I'm just an errand runner. Without the TV ticket coordinated by Director Li from above, even if I run [-] times, the department store won't sell me." The credit rests on Li Huaide's head.

Li Huaide was very satisfied with Li Pingan's attitude of not being greedy for merit. With a big wave of his hand, he asked Li Pingan to go forward and debug the TV: "Okay, let's not give in. Since the TVs are here, let's hurry up Click on the debugging and debugging, and try to let all the factory workers watch TV at night."

"it is good"

"Thank you Director Li"

"Director Li is really a good leader. There are so many factories around, and our factory has TV sets. Director Li is really amazing."

At night, as soon as all the workers in the factory said they were watching TV, the surrounding workers immediately applauded frantically, and the flattering words in their mouths jumped out without money.

Li Pingan glanced at the photo of the TV set on the cardboard box, and curled his lips in his heart. It’s just a [-]-inch black and white TV, and he wants everyone in the factory to watch it. Keep it far away, and watch everything on the TV screen. unclear.

Quickly unpacking the TV, carefully took the TV out of the carton, connected it to the power supply, and started debugging according to the instructions.

After turning on the power, Li Pingan turned on the antenna that came with the TV, and turned on the TV smoothly. The signal received was not much. After looking around, he could receive the channels of four TV stations, but there would be no programs. It's a snow screen.

At present, there are only 12 TV stations in the country, and because of signal reception problems, these TV stations cannot receive all of them, only the capital station and the TV stations in neighboring provinces.

I took the program list of the TV station that the salesperson gave me, and checked the time, and it was not in the broadcast time period.

"Director Li, the TV is normally able to receive the signals of the 4 channels, but now it is not in the time period of the program, and the picture cannot be seen. This is the program schedule, you can take a look." Li Pingan held his hand The program playlist in the TV station was handed over to Li Huaide.

Nowadays, the technology is underdeveloped, and it is impossible to guarantee to receive the signal all day long. Coupled with the backwardness of the TV broadcasting industry, there are not so many movies to support it. In addition, the TV drama industry has just started, so there are not many TV dramas in total, so there are only two TV dramas a day. You can watch TV programs for three hours, and the rest of the time is full of snow screens.
