The rise of a great power: starting with military industry

Chapter 97 Reward
The two days of the weekend passed just like that.

Liu Tao lives a very comfortable life.

I didn't expect to meet Zhu Lin by chance. I was so shameless and took the initiative, and things developed so quickly.

When it comes to love, you really have to strike quickly, with fierce firepower and thick skin, and not give the other person time to regain their sanity.

Girls who are dominated by emotions will have a sharp drop in IQ.

When they parted, they made an appointment to watch a movie together the next night.

In this era, there are only a few movies released in a year, but one movie can often be played for a whole year.

Liu Tao is not interested in movies, but wants to cultivate feelings.

He won't stay in the capital for too long and will be leaving soon. It would be best if he could make further progress before leaving.

The next morning, Liu Tao went to Wang Baoguo's office again.

"How is it, leader? Can I have contact with him?" Liu Tao asked.

Wang Baoguo said unhappily, "It's such a big deal. I just wrote a report and submitted it. The result won't come out until tomorrow at least. Maybe the leader will even ask about it in person."

Liu Tao thought about it and it made sense. Leaders are very busy and have to deal with countless things every day.

There won't be results so quickly.

Even for Wang Baoguo, it is not easy to see the leader.

"You won such a big order this time. The department held a meeting and gave you a reward of 78. You can go to the finance department with the documents later." Wang Baoguo said, "Also, the anti-aircraft machine gun has been approved and finalized as the Type anti-aircraft machine gun. The department will give you a reward of . In addition, the Provincial National Defense Management Office will give you another reward."

Liu Tao couldn't help but show his joy.

This time, the reward is a full 120,000.

The purchase of that courtyard house emptied out all our family savings, but now it’s good, and our family finances are abundant again.

Money is a man's courage!
Although money is not everything, but without money is absolutely impossible.

With this money, his family doesn't have to live frugally like they have in the past few days.

"Your father has been officially appointed as the head of the foreign trade working group. You can contact him directly if you have any questions." Wang Baoguo said, "The foreign affairs department has also sent two translators to assist."

Liu Tao didn't expect the speed to be so fast.

This foreign trade working group is obviously different from the previous working group sent to Yangcheng Port. That was a temporary working group, while this foreign trade working group is obviously a permanent working group, specifically responsible for the foreign trade work of the Fifth Ministry of Machine Building.

Liu Tao thinks it is good to have such a working group, which can facilitate good coordination.

He only needs to produce the orders belonging to Panshan Machinery Factory, and leave the other orders to the working group for coordination.

Even for the later orders from Panshan Machinery Factory, Liu Tao only needed to communicate with the foreign trade working group to resolve them.

After finishing his work, Liu Tao went to the bank with the finance department.

Half an hour later, I left the bank and returned home.

My second sister and her family have gone out for a trip. During this time they have been walking around the capital city.

Liu Tao put the passbook away. At that time, there was no bank card, so all deposits and withdrawals depended on the passbook.

In the evening.

Liu Tao saw Zhu Lin, who was wearing the clothes he bought for her yesterday.

The two of them naturally held hands and walked towards the cinema.

With the reform and opening up, the film industry has been rebuilt on the ruins of history. Just this year, the movie ticket sales method has been changed from the previous organized distribution to public sales, which has preliminarily solved the problem of audiences' difficulty in buying tickets.

Liu Tao bought two movie tickets with good seats last night. If he buys tickets today, he will have to queue up for a long time. This year's film market is called the 'golden year' of film distribution. All business indicators have reached record levels. The average number of people watching movies has reached 28 times, and the number of viewers nationwide has reached an unprecedented record of 293 billion.

This will definitely be unimaginable in the future. At that time, the average ticket price will be 38 yuan. If it is based on the current 293 billion ticket sales, the total box office of the movie will reach a terrifying 1.11 trillion yuan!
Walk into the cinema and come to the middle seat.

More and more people entered the cinema, and soon it was full.

The movie they watched today was "Sweet Business", which tells the stories of two rural families surrounding having children, falling in love and getting married, and production and construction.

To be honest, Liu Tao is not used to the movies of this era. Just the texture of the movie pictures is difficult for him to get used to, not to mention the viewing environment.

The entire cinema was packed with people.

Zhu Lin, on the other hand, was watching with great interest.

After watching the movie, when they walked out of the cinema, they talked about the movie as they walked.

"How about coming to my house for dinner tomorrow?" Liu Tao suddenly said.

Zhu Lin's face suddenly turned red, and even his ears turned red. "Isn't it too fast?"

"An ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law. It's better to meet them sooner rather than later." Liu Tao said with a smile, "Besides, you are so beautiful, you are not an ugly daughter-in-law."

Zhu Lin was helpless. She seemed very passive in their relationship and was completely pushed forward. This made her feel helpless, yet there was a hint of sweetness in her heart.

"Why don't we just have dinner at a restaurant outside and invite your parents to come along." Liu Tao said, "I will be leaving the capital and returning to Yun Province in a few days, and I will have to return to the capital at least during the Chinese New Year."

When Zhu Lin heard Liu Tao talking about leaving the capital, he couldn't help showing a look of reluctance, but he couldn't bear to refuse, so he nodded gently in agreement.

After all, we will not see each other again until a month and a half later.

"Actually, you can come to our factory's hospital." Liu Tao said.

Zhu Lin shook his head. "My company recommended me to go to university. I just graduated. It would be bad if I left the company."

Liu Tao nodded slightly and did not force it.

After all, as Zhu Lin said, he was recommended by his unit to go to university, but he ran away right after graduating from university. This is just not acceptable.

"Okay, let's wait and see in a year or two." Liu Tao said.

After sending Zhu Lin to the dormitory, when they parted, Liu Tao put his arms around Zhu Lin's slender waist and hugged her.

A few minutes later, Zhu Lin ran back to the dormitory.

Liu Tao smiled gently.

After returning home, Liu Tao announced in front of the whole family that he would have dinner out the next night so that they could meet his girlfriend and her family.

Suddenly the whole house was in an uproar.

Before, Chen Fang and Liu Honglei would urge Liu Tao to find a partner from time to time, and Liu Tao always looked impatient.

What happened is that we were actually dating without realizing it.

Everyone was talking at once, asking questions about how the two knew each other, where the other worked, what the other looked like, and what their family situation was like.
Liu Tao felt quite overwhelmed and did not know whether to laugh or cry.

"Don't worry, don't you know my taste? She looks like a fairy from heaven, so beautiful." Liu Tao said.

There may be people prettier than Zhu Lin among China's one billion people, but I guess they can be counted on one hand.

Think about the King of the Kingdom of Women, he can still charm people even after forty years.

Even female celebrities whose makeup skills have greatly improved in later generations and internet celebrities who use filters to beautify their images are not as good as Zhu Lin. You can imagine how beautiful and elegant Zhu Lin is.
