Era: Beginning from the Modu Translation Studio

Chapter 451 A unique journey

In fact, not only TV stations will come, some of the singers and crosstalk performers present here will also come along.

As early as the end of last year, art troupes represented by Kerimu, Yang Hongji and Hou Yaowen visited frontline troops in Yunnan, Guangxi and other places for many times to perform consolation shows.

This time, Pujiang TV will go together and bring back this memorable footage.

……

In the last month of 1980, every household was busy.

These days, the three brothers of the Jiang family either go to the market to help their mother buy meat, or carry vegetables for the winter.

When the second and third brothers rushed in holding the grain books, Comrade Jiang Hai took the opportunity to take a number of photos.

He has lived up to his leading role as the head of the society.

……

"It's really a ghost."

On the way upstairs for the meeting, Jiangshan did not forget to chat with Editor Cai:
"It's like they don't care about money, they all swarm in. I feel like the color of the meat isn't right, but if you're not slow you can't get any."

"It's like this every year at this time,"

Cai Wensheng concluded:
"If the price of non-staple food is announced to increase, people will rush to buy it. If the price is reduced, people will also rush to buy it. What should we do if there is not enough to sell? We can only move the goods out of the big warehouse..."

Compared with the supplies that can be bought and used immediately in later generations, nowadays everything really needs to be prepared in advance.

The two of them talked all the way until they entered the conference room, then they spread out the small notebooks in their hands on the conference table.

"I've told you about Treasury bonds several times before."

Jiang Hai passed on the new file he received:
"The date has been set, and it will be officially released on the 16th of next month, which is January 1981.

The issuance period is 10 years, and the main issuers are still enterprises and institutions.

Party members and cadres in our unit must take the lead in supporting this..."

The task of issuing treasury bonds was best accomplished in the first year.

Not only was the task completed quickly, but it also exceeded expectations.

Originally, the task was only assigned to enterprises and institutions, but ordinary people also used their connections to buy the products.

When the organization saw this situation, they were immediately overjoyed.

So, we started to increase the circulation in the second year.

"There is another important thing,"

Comrade Jiang Hai continued to convey the spirit of the meeting from his superiors:
"In recent years, there have been several incidents of dangerous building collapses in primary and secondary schools in some areas,"

Teacher allocation is a long-standing problem...

Just yesterday, the state officially issued the "Decision on Several Issues Concerning the Universalization of Primary Education".
The Propaganda Department hopes that we, the propaganda outlets, can reach out to the masses and collect some relevant information.

Let’s go and investigate the school buildings and teaching staff together…”

On December 1980, 12, the Nine-Year Compulsory Education Act was finally put on the table.

Hearing this, Cai Wensheng from the Re-publication Department said: "If we want to really understand some of the situation, it is definitely not very meaningful to conduct an on-site investigation in Pujiang."

Rong Bin from the News Department also nodded: "We still need to go deep into the countryside to investigate these issues, and visit those rural primary schools."

"Go to the countryside for field interviews?" Ning Hua looked at everyone and said, "The New Year is coming soon. Who among you is willing to go?"

"I do."

Rong Bin was originally a journalist: "As long as one of you is willing to take my place, I can leave tonight."

"Editor-in-Chief Rong, please don't touch this matter,"

Jiang Hai looked around and finally stopped at Jiang Shan: "How about... Chief Jiang, can you please help me?"

"Me?" Jiang Shan didn't expect this to happen to him: "Okay, I'll go there."

……

After half an hour, Editor-in-Chief Jiang came downstairs holding a porcelain cup.

Through the glass window of the advertising department, I could just see three comrades inside, huddled together and whispering.

"What are you busy with?" Jiang Hai knocked on the door and pushed it open.

Jiang Shan looked back and said, "He is busy going out to interview people."

The first thing to consider is which primary school to go to?
"Come on, come on,"

Jiang Hai came here with a purpose: "You guys take a look at this letter first."

"Shiting Village, Guangde County, Anhui Province..."

Before opening the letter, Jiangshan first glanced at the mailing address.

“Dear uncles and aunts, I am Zhu Xiaoxiao, a fourth-grade student at Shiting Village Primary School.

A few months ago, my mother took a copy of the Oriental Metropolis Daily sent from her hometown.
Tell my dad she’s getting a divorce…”

Facing the paper full of immature handwriting, Jiang Shan paused:
"Now my mother has left us and returned to her hometown in Pujiang.

My brother and I saw our father looking sad every day, so we wanted to write a letter to ask him what divorce meant.

Does this mean that my parents are going to separate? Why did your newspaper ask my mom to get a divorce? ..."

After finally deciphering the letter, the three people in the advertising department looked up at Jiang Hai together.

"Editor-in-chief," Ding Lingling asked first, "Why did you ask his mother to divorce you?"

"Comrade Jiang Hai," Jiang Shan also joined in the fun: "This is your fault."

"That's not right," Jiang Zhuangzhuang reviewed the contents of the letter, "The kid said that our newspaper was the one that caused his parents to divorce."

Poor Jiang Hai was a beat late when he spoke several times, but now he finally found the opportunity.

"Xiao Jiang is still sensible,"

He pointed at the letter in Jiangshan's hand:
"This letter was first sent to the republication department, but Mr. Cai didn't take it seriously until he received another letter last month.

The contents of the letters are similar, but what is certain is that the child’s mother really does not intend to go back.”

"Is the child's mother from Pujiang?" Ding Lingling asked in detail.

Jiang Hai nodded: "It seems so."

"Has our newspaper ever persuaded people to disband?" Jiang Shan asked in confusion, "When?"

"Never, but," Jiang Hai reminded, "there was an article reprinted..."

In 1980, the state promulgated a new marriage law.

The most eye-catching one is: if the relationship between husband and wife breaks down and mediation is ineffective, divorce will be allowed.

As a result, the divorce rate skyrocketed.

But there was a divorce case that shocked the whole country.

In 1946, a Yenching girl named Yu Jinluo was born into an intellectual family.

In 1970, influenced by her eldest brother, Yu Jinluo left the city alone.

A few years later, she married a farmer from the Northeast Farm.

In 1978, Yu Jinluo returned to Yanjing.

After divorcing her lover, she married an ordinary worker in Yanjing.

But no matter whether it was the first time or the second time, it was not the marriage that the girl wanted.

However, the second husband was really good to her!
Not only did he help her find a job, he also went around helping her brother restore his reputation.

According to normal human logic, Yu Jinluo can finally live a stable life now.

But she filed for divorce again in May 1980, the second year after everything was settled.

After being condemned by people around her, Yu Jinluo bravely picked up her pen and sent her articles to several newspapers.

I have to say that these articles by Comrade Yu accurately captured the key words of the times.

It seems like self-criticism, but it avoids the main issue and only talks about the suffering he has endured.

Don't talk about the harm you have caused to innocent people.

[If I file for divorce, what will await me? I will be considered heartless, ungrateful, and a traitor...]

[But who among you can tolerate a loveless marriage? ]

[I can't say anything to him, I can only remain mute.]

At the beginning, no newspaper paid any attention to her.

Moreover, the Xinhua Insider, which couldn't bear to see this, even published an article specifically commenting on this matter, "A Fallen Woman":
[Since you have nothing to say to your current husband, how did he know about your family's affairs? Who is he running around for? ]

Unexpectedly, Yu Jinluo was not afraid at all and continued to write an article titled "A Winter Fairy Tale".

Coincidentally, this article coincides with a wave of scar culture.

Its sad tone attracted countless sympathy.

Afterwards, it was translated into German, Japanese, English and French and promoted abroad.

This was unacceptable. Therefore, the judge in charge of the divorce case immediately revised the verdict.

Before the verdict was handed down, he published an article titled "Why I Should Divorce Them".

After this series of operations, various newspapers rushed to reprint the report.

Every family was led astray by the judgment of this judge.

For a time, everyone was supporting Yu Jinluo.

And send blessings to her.

Wherever the waves reached, many educated young people who had integrated with workers and peasants found a new direction in life.

"that is……"

Ding Lingling now understood everything: "It's because the article reprinted in our newspaper was... "

Jiang Shan reminded: "Zhu Xiaoxiao."

"Zhu Xiaoxiao's mother saw it," Ding Lingling said, "So, she wants a divorce too?"

"It seems that this is the situation," Jiang Hai thought of his own troubles:

"To be honest, this kind of thing happens not only in the countryside but also in the city."

"I also know that they deserve sympathy,"

Ding Lingling said indignantly: "But you should at least take the child with you. No matter how bad the conditions in the city are, can they be worse than those in the countryside?"

"That's right," Jiang Zhuangzhuang also said angrily:
"To be honest, I still don't agree with Comrade Yu Jinluo's approach.

Oh, she gets married when something goes wrong, and then gets divorced as soon as the problem is solved. What does she take marriage for? "

"Look, look,"

Jiang Shan found it a little funny: "A few bachelors like us are actually gathered here to discuss marriage?"

Jiang Hai also laughed.

"Third brother," he pointed at the letter in Jiang Shan's hand, "I suggest you go to this place and take a look."

"Shiting Village, Guangde County, Anhui Province?" The three people in the advertising department said in unison.

"I wonder if you noticed it at the time?"

Jiang Hai helped them recall:

"When our newspaper reprinted that article a few months ago, a female editor working for Mr. Cai even wrote a comment after the article.

The general meaning is to encourage every educated young woman to bravely say no to the past and return to her own track as soon as possible.

Now it seems that this comment was a bit ill-considered..."

Or it is not comprehensive enough.

But everyone knows that there will definitely be no unified answer if we want to discuss what is right and wrong in this matter.

After all, different angles lead to different views.

There are even some things that are wrong no matter what choice you make.

In 1995, a TV series titled "The Debt of Sin" produced by Pujiang TV set a record for the highest audience ratings.

The play describes five children from Xishuangbanna who jumped on a train to Pujiang in order to find their father or mother.

Their fathers and mothers were the educated youth who went to the frontier alone back then.

It’s a pity that the children who traveled thousands of miles to find their biological parents did not find them.

I also saw the other party's re-formed happy family.

As a result, the children felt hurt.

The educated youth who abandoned their own children and returned to the city were also attacked by the long-buried "bomb"...

But this does not include Comrade Yu Jinluo.

Because next year, a presiding judge will hear the case again.

The second-instance judgment still granted divorce.

However, such an agreement will be reflected in the approval document:
The two parties had a harmonious relationship after marriage, but later their relationship broke down due to changes in the woman's own conditions, the intervention of a third party, and her fickleness... The two parties reached an agreement and divorced voluntarily.

The previous judge also received organizational criticism for violating regulations by publishing a short article without authorization before the verdict was issued.

A year after the divorce, Comrade Yu Jinluo got married again.

This time, she married a foreigner.

……

"I have specifically inquired about this before,"

Jiang Hai looked at Jiang Shan and the others and said, "This Siting Village is not just a difficult place, I guess the conditions in the school are also terrible.

I suggested at the meeting that you go there because I thought it would be more convenient for you to have a car."

"As long as the company reimburses the gas, I'll take the trouble to make the trip."

Jiang Shan also started to be interested in that place: "By the way, let's go and see that little Zhu Xiaoxiao."

"Listen, what a great name this child has,"

Ding Lingling suddenly had an idea: "Boss, why don't you take me with you? I haven't been to Hui Province yet."

"It's better to take me with you," Jiang Zhuangzhuang had this idea long ago: "If you encounter any problems on the road, I can still lend a hand."

"Comrade Jiang Zhuangzhuang,"

Ding Lingling looked at him with a stern face: "Are you looking down on female comrades?"

"Okay, okay,"

Editor-in-Chief Jiang smoothed things over at this time:
"It's a long journey, how about... all three of you go, so that you can have someone to look after you on the way."

Jiangshan nodded silently.

Several people in the room laughed together.

They don't know yet that a unique journey is waiting for them...

……

Tokyo City, Dadi Advertising Company.

All the employees are ready to go and are doing the final training before departure.

Just at this time, several BMW executives came to the door.

As soon as I pushed the door open, I was shocked by the training posture inside.

"Excuse me, is this Dadi Advertising Company?"

"welcome,"

The receptionist, who had dressed up in advance, hurried over to greet him: "Dadi Advertising welcomes you..."

“Is it just the design of outdoor advertising?”

After learning the details of the intention, Yu Sigui in the office looked at the other party:
“The TV commercials designed by our company are also excellent.”

"BMW has always had an advertising company that it has been working with for many years,"

The person in charge of BMW Japan introduced:

“Normally, they are responsible for the design.”

Another blond-haired, blue-eyed executive said, "Our company will be fully stationed in Japan next year, so we are very strict about the effectiveness of this promotion."

"In that case, you should choose our land,"

Facing such a powerful company, Mr. Yu was reluctant to miss it:
“Let’s put it this way. All of our employees will go to the TV station to participate in the selection event of “Super Change”.

If you guys are willing, why don't we get in the car and continue our conversation?"

"So you are going to participate in "Super Change," one of the local executives looked at them in surprise.

No wonder they are all dressed like this.

"It's the end of the year now," Yu Sigui said with a smile.

"Let's work together to strengthen our collective cohesion, and by the way... win a big prize."

“Is your company so confident?” the thin local executive laughed.

He turned around and told his two foreign colleagues the whole story.

Seeing Mr. Yu's confident expression, they also began to become interested.

By the way, who can determine who is the winner before a game starts?

"If the program designed by this company can really win a big prize,"

The Japanese executives analyzed quietly: "Then their power is worth looking forward to."

"Why don't we... go over and take a look?"
