Era: Beginning from the Modu Translation Studio

Chapter 364 The development of events like electric shock
1980, spring.

On the west side of the Forbidden City, there are rippling blue waves and scattered courtyards.

The ZN Sea, separated by a bridge from Beihai Park, is wrapped in a continuous natural lake.

Among the flowers and greenery, a Hongqi car slowly stopped.

Comrade Jiang Shan, who stepped into the ZN sea for the first time in his life, followed Hou Xijiu with a solemn expression.

At this moment, Hou Xijiu, thinking that the other party had not spoken to him since he entered ZNH, began to do some psychological work on the young comrade.

"Comrade Xiao Jiang," Director Hou smiled cordially: "Don't be nervous. Don't think you have to be serious when entering a serious occasion."

Jiang Shanjuan: "I'm not nervous!"

"Why don't you talk when you're not nervous?"

"Didn't Director Lu tell me yesterday? Don't ask any questions, just follow along."

Jiang Shan paused: "Is this place going to be opened to the outside world?

Rao Bin turned to Deputy Bureau Jiang who was walking together and introduced: "That young man is the Jiangshan I mentioned a few days ago."

After Director Hou said a few words, Jiang Shan was really not nervous at all: "It seems that we have really implemented reform and opening up."

Hou Xijiu's eyes were straight: "Comrade Jiang Shan is Director Lu's guest."

May? It only takes a month to go up or down.

Rao Bin pondered expressionlessly for a while: "Xiao Jiang, come here."

"Okay, okay," Lu Xuzhang said as he walked: "You are also here to participate in the signing ceremony, right? Let's go together."

Although the city of Yanjing is turbulent these days.

"You didn't expect that?" Director Hou also stopped: "Not only ZHN, I heard that the opening hours of the Great Hall are also being studied and discussed!"

After seeing the other party waving, Jiang Shan quickly followed Rao Bin to the side.

"No one has made trouble for you in the past two days, right?"

When the time comes, I must bring my parents to visit Yanjing.

"Chief?" Jiang Shan said in surprise, feeling inexplicably cordial when they met again: "Why are you here?"

"What is your guest?" Rao Bin obviously had a good relationship with Lu Xuzhang: "He is obviously my guest."

"Let me introduce you," Rao Bin said, "This is Comrade Jiang who is in charge of the foreign affairs work of the First Machine."

"He also discussed with me the specific process of making popsicles."

Jiang Shan said honestly: "Yes."

"Yes," Rao Bin nodded: "But after organizational research and decision, this sentence has finally been determined as everything is ready, just waiting for the east wind!"

Rao Bin nodded slightly: "What are you...?"

Suddenly, a half-baked voice came over: "Is it Xiao Jiang?"

"What are we discussing?" Rao Bin couldn't keep his voice down: "Possicles?"

"Xiao Jiang?"

But people like Jiang Shan, who has no official position and no foundation at all, can still be seen wandering back and forth in Diaoyutai, Fangshan, and Tingli Hall.

"Then," Rao Bin lowered his voice: "Why did the people from the tourism bureau call you here?"

"No," Jiang Shan said, "No one made things difficult for me."

"..." Director Hou smiled and started chatting along the way without revealing the other party: "Starting from May this year, ZH Sea will be open to foreign guests and ordinary people during the holidays."

Under Jiang Shan's pounding heartbeat, Rao Bin's eyes turned from fearful to kind.

"Why," Rao Bin said, "you brought Jiang Shan here to let him attend the signing ceremony?"

Jiang Shan and Director Hou looked back when they heard the sound, and saw Rao Bin and Deputy Director Jiang from the Mechanical Department walking towards them among the flowers.

It's a coincidence that the latter two state-owned units are also co-managed areas of the Tourism Bureau.

"Just for this?"

"Reporting to the director," Jiangshanhui reported: "Director Lu ordered me to include some promotional shots of tourist cities in the advertisements we are planning to shoot."

Hou Xijiu also called Rao Bin: "Chief!"

While talking, the two people had already walked in front of Jiang Shan.

In front of an antique Chinese courtyard, Lu Xuzhang walked over with a smile on his hands behind his back.

"I still want to ask you,"

Jiang Shan, whose mood could not be described, said respectfully: "Hello, chief."

It is inevitable to provoke some unnecessary talk.

"Oh?"

Deputy Director Jiang looked at Jiang Shan instantly: "Only waiting for Dongfeng?"

Before he could ask more questions, Rao Bin heard a familiar voice: "Old Rao, why did you stop my guest at the door?"

"Comrade Xiao Jiang is still very young and should see more of the world," Lu Xuzhang said, "especially the world that outsiders cannot see."

At this moment, the three leaders were walking in front, followed by Jiang Shan and Director Hou.

After hearing this, Rao Bin suddenly saw the secret of the chaebol's success from Lu Xuzhang.

Why didn't he think of this?
"I heard from Xiao Jiang that you two are studying popsicles recently?"

"Ok!"

"What's there to study about this gadget?"

"Our tourism bureau is no bigger than your family," Lu Xuzhang smiled: "Except for these small businesses, we can't afford to invest in anything!"

"Come on, I don't know you yet," Rao Bin said, "Who would believe that a landlord comes to a tenant's house to complain about poverty?"

Regardless of whether the other party believed it or not, Lu Xuzhang couldn't care less at the moment.

Seeing that he was arriving at the place where the contract was signed, he waved Jiang Shan over.

"In a moment, it will be the scene where the Sixth Machinery Department and Xiangjiang Liancheng Shipping officially signed a shipbuilding contract.

Come with us and experience this significant historical moment in the country's shipbuilding industry. "

……

In March 1980, China Shipbuilding Industry Co., Ltd., which had suffered losses for more than ten years, was ordered to "go to the international market to find a way out", and a group of people from the Sixth Machinery Department also opened their address books.

After that, Lu Xuzhang, who received help from the other party, quickly secured the first overseas order for Chinese ships.

As early as 1963, when the entire public was cheering enthusiastically for the successful launch of my country's first -ton cargo ship into the sea.

The 48-ton oil tanker built by Japan has already been sailing on the sea.

In 1980, nine years after proposing the slogan of "building a nation through shipbuilding," South Korea became the world's second largest shipbuilding country after Japan.

Also in 1980, a Japanese visiting group exclaimed, "Why are you still using the shipbuilding methods of thirty years ago?" Chinese ships.

With the help of Lu Xuzhang, a large-scale connectionist, we secured two 2.7-ton cargo ships originally scheduled to be built in Japan: the Great Wall and the Wangyuan.

However, although the "world shipping kings" Bao brothers have given Chinese ships a face, the acceptance standards in the contract are no different from those overseas.

When "technology 30 years behind the world" was equated with "international standards", the leaders of Dalian Shipyard issued a military order to the Sixth Base.

Eighteen months later, the "Great Wall" cargo ship was delivered on time in accordance with the contract. Not only did the British acceptance team, which had retested 18, 3, and 4 times, give a thumbs up.

It also attracted a large number of overseas orders for Chinese ships to open the country for business.

But no one in the conference hall knew better than Jiang Shan that behind this era that was good at creating miracles, there was a history of blood and tears of countless workers and technicians.

As the men at the shipyard recalled afterwards, it was precisely because of Party A’s inspector’s outrageous inspection methods.

Only then did the entire shipyard learn how to build large cargo ships that meet international standards in a very short period of time.

When there was a burst of applause, Jiang Shan noticed the excited looks of Lu Xuzhang and Rao Bin.

In the eyes of these two people, they not only saw the starting point for Chinese ships to go global, but also seemed to see their own segments stepping into the ranks of international standards.

On the way out of the ZNH banquet hall, Lu Xuzhang smiled and said to Jiang Shan:

"Our bureau held a party yesterday. At the party, I served them a plate of cultural and creative popsicles."

Jiang Shan couldn't imagine that scene: "Did they eat it?"

"I've had a few bites of it," Lu Xuzhang said with a smile, "Some even asked me for it before leaving, and I asked them to go back and make it themselves. Not only did they have to do it, but they also had to notify several tourist cities to do it together."

"So it won't be long before you can see these popsicles in Yanjing's scenic spots?"

"Didn't you say that at the time," Lu Xuzhang said, "This is a project that can be launched on the market to earn foreign exchange in less than a month."

It seems that if everything goes well, when Father Jiang and Mother Jiang arrive in Yanjing, colorful popsicles will be visible in the Forbidden City.

Thinking of this, Jiang Shan's face unknowingly burst into laughter.

In a daze, Lu Xuzhang saw his excited expression on his face after giving a gift to the party for the first time.

Yes, it’s this expression, this sense of glorious mission after making contributions to the organization!

"Xiao Jiang, come with me!"

Director Lu said that and strode forward.

Jiang Shan, who was looking around, followed closely behind.

When the two of them walked into an office in a Chinese-style courtyard, Comrade Hou Xijiu spread out a roll of construction drawings.

If the outdoors can be described as simple, then this thirty-square-meter office can only be described as simple. For the General Administration of Tourism, which does not yet have an official office, ZNH is undoubtedly the most elegant office location.

But at this moment, Jiang Shan only cared about a construction drawing on the table: "Is our bureau going to build a new building again?"

Jiang Shan's habitual expression of "we" everywhere he went made the two leaders in the room quite happy.

"Look at this carefully," Director Lu buttoned up a corner of the construction drawing: "This is a new project that will be launched in Pujiang soon."

"Pujiang commercial and residential housing..." Jiang Shan read slowly: "Xuhui Aijian Building Overseas Chinese Remittance Housing?"

"In 1979, Aijian Company was established in Pujiang," Director Lu said quickly:
"This is the first project launched after the establishment of their company, and it is also the first batch of export houses in the country..."

Overseas remittance houses, as the name suggests, are commercial houses that the country encourages overseas Chinese to use foreign exchange to purchase.

This shows that the country is currently absorbing foreign exchange.

After this policy was announced, Xuhui, a large and sparsely populated area, undoubtedly became the first choice place in Pujiang to develop overseas remittance housing.

At this moment, Lu Xuzhang had already pressed his hand and ordered the two comrades beside him to sit down.

"Xiao Jiang, I heard that your two houses in Xuhui Garden have been vacant. Why is this?"

Jiang Shan, who was adjusting his sitting position one second, was so frightened by Bureau Lu's words that he stood up the next second.

"Report to the chief," Jiang Shan's head buzzed: "Because I'm afraid of being reported."

Sure enough, Jiang Shan's impromptu answer made Lu Xuzhang nod, "I guess so."

Under Director Hou's smile, the frowning Director Lu waved his hand.

"When organizing housing allocation, there is no one that has not been discussed and studied," Lu Xuzhang said, "not to mention two houses, there are many people who divide two plots of land."

"..." Jiang Shan, an honest man, dared not express a single opinion.

"The one above is Director Hou's phone number," Director Lu pushed a note to Jiang Shan:
"The other one is my phone number. If you really encounter a sticky situation, just give us a call."

At this moment, Lu Xuzhang, who had learned that Jiangshan had an overseas background, was ready to provide a protective umbrella for him.

After all, this is the promising young man who presented him with a "flywheel publicity plan".

Director Lu feels very fond of those small commodity markets in Jiangshan that require low investment and quick results.

But for Jiangshan, who had only moved souvenirs from the Forbidden City in advance, it was a bit flattering.

"Don't worry, leader, I will be careful."

"We have a general understanding of your situation,"

Looking at the sweat on Jiang Shan's forehead, Director Lu smiled and said:

"But it doesn't matter much. It's not a bad thing that the company has a Japanese background.

Young talents like you are dedicated to making suggestions for the organization to earn foreign exchange.

When the organization needs protection, it will naturally come forward. "

Now, the country standing in front of him looked too much like his younger self.

During the Anti-Japanese War, Guanghua Bank, which was ordered to benefit the party, expanded rapidly without being exposed.

Not only did he co-found a pharmaceutical factory with Chen Liguo, he also co-founded a fur company with Song Ziwen...

Try to tie together the interests of the vast Hua Bank and the four major families.

During this period, in order to transport a large amount of gold, banknotes, medicines, weapons... to the organization.

Huaguang Hua Bank has also established several banks such as Dingyuan and Tongqing.

In these banks, Communist Party organizations can freely withdraw large amounts of gold.

Because of the special circumstances at that time, most of the funds provided by the Chinese bank to the organization were mainly gold goods to maintain value.

According to Cao Kefan, a descendant of the founder of Tongqing Bank, he recalled:

[My grandfather often said that in the bank, there would often be tense scenes of the Communist Party discussing in the back room and the Kuomintang communicating in the outer room. 】

"As long as it's your own house, you can live in it in a down-to-earth manner,"

Director Lu encouraged Jiang Shandao: "Only by living your own life well can you better contribute to the country."

"Okay, chief," Jiang Shan nodded vigorously: "I remember."

"Now that I remember it," Director Lu patted the drawing on the table: "Let's choose a house here..."

"Director Lu," Jiang Shan didn't even bother to shout, "Thanks to the organization for caring about me, but this house... I really can't..."

"This house is not allocated to you," Lu Xuzhang forcibly interrupted Jiang Shan's refusal: "It is awarded to your company."

"..." Jiang Shan really didn't expect this: "A reward to our company? A spring demeanor?"

"That's right, it's for spring," Lu Xuzhang said, "What a good name. A company like this should have a decent office space."

After speaking, Director Lu looked at his office: "Comrade Jiangshan."

Jiang Shan stood upright and said, "Yes."

"After research, it was decided to award a house in Aijian Building in Xujiahui, Pujiang, to the Chunfengdu Advertising Company that has made significant contributions to the organization..."

hum...

Ever since Director Lu spoke, Jiang Shan's mind has been honking.

He still didn't know that the chairman of Aijian Company, the first private enterprise after the reform, was Yang Yanxiu, the partner who founded Guangdong Hua Bank with Lu Xuzhang.

I don't know what kind of connections Lu Xuzhang used to get "Chun Fengdu" to receive an overseas remittance room as a gift.

Could it be that he was thinking about the profits from the popsicle that was about to hit the market?

"Comrade Xiao Jiang, Comrade Xiao Jiang," Director Hou reminded with a smile: "Don't accept the organization's allocation quickly."

At this time, Jiangshan simply said calmly: "Thank you to the leader for trusting Chunfengdu. In the future, all our employees at Chunfengdu will definitely work harder..."

"Xiaojiang,"

Director Lu patted the drawings on the table and said, "The construction of this house has not started yet. Come and see which floor you like first?"

"I don't have much experience in this area," Jiang Shan dared not make any mistakes: "It's all up to you."

"..." Lu Xuzhang looked at the drawings on the table: "The construction of the Aijian Building, which will be used for both commercial and residential purposes, will begin no later than the end of the year..."

"I heard it's the end of the year,"

Director Hou, who is already in charge of the construction of Jianguo Hotel, said:
"The first phase of the project consists of two 15-story buildings, with 6 houses on each floor, each with an area of ​​about 100 square meters..."

"If the total height is 15 floors..." Lu Xuzhang thought for a while: "I suggest you choose the 10th floor."

Jiang Shan, who has lived two lifetimes, never thought that he would choose a house in ZNH: "I also think the 10th floor is very good."

"Then let's decide, our tourism bureau will be on the 10th floor."

While talking, Director Lu had already picked up a pen and wrote the word "brigade" next to the 10th floor of the drawing.

Only now did Jiang Shan understand what the handwritten Chinese characters on this drawing represented.

……

After the Aijian Building matter was implemented, the atmosphere in the office became obviously much more relaxed.

"Xiao Jiang," Lu Xuzhang took a big sip of green tea: "I have already made arrangements for the aerial footage of the Mogao Grottoes. After the film is sent, you can carefully select it."

"Yes," Jiang Shan was already full of energy at this moment: "Please rest assured, chief, I will definitely choose a shot that will make overseas people attracted at first sight."

He had to create a micro-setup for Mogao Grottoes that was love at first sight.

When I think that I can meet a good leader who doesn't talk empty words and only does practical things.

The red hearts of Jiang people have been warmed up for a long time.

Coincidentally, Lu Xuzhang was also imagining the hot sales scene of Wenchuang Popsicle.

Just as the tourism bureau and civil society organizations came forward, a gay man in his thirties walked in.

"Bureau Lu," Gay Men's Hui reported:
"After our continuous efforts, the Ministry of Health is still unwilling to withdraw from the 66 houses of the original 'Xu Beihong Memorial Hall'.

But they have promised to allocate an area of ​​the same size for the construction of a new site for the Xu Beihong Memorial Hall. "

Lu Xuzhang rubbed his eyebrows: "Whose land was specifically mentioned?"

"To that point... it says it's right on the lot they're moving out of."

"How many rooms do they have?" Lu Xuzhang: "It would be good if they can get half of it."

"We will continue to fight for it."

"..." Lu Xuzhang sighed: "Is there anything else?"

"The inventory of materials collected from the 'Xu Beihong Memorial Hall' stored in the Forbidden City has been basically completed,"

The gay man continued: "For more than ten years, due to the disrepair and poor environment of the storage location, half of the collections have been damaged to some extent.

After careful inventory, we found that there are 737 Xu Beihong's sketches, 111 oil paintings, and 381 collections...

Among them, the large-scale oil paintings "The Chairman is Among the Crowds", "The Foolish Old Man Moves the Mountain", and "Eighty-Seven Immortals"... all have varying degrees of degumming, cracking, and mottled phenomena.

In addition, due to the rough operations of the collectors at that time, many pictures were damaged that are difficult to repair..."

"Eighty-Seven Immortal Scrolls?"

Hearing this familiar painting title again, an electric shock flashed through his eyes.

At the same time, the silent Lu Xuzhang was also shocked by Jiang Shan's glance...
