Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 227 Leisure time
Next, Duan Yun and several other colleagues exchanged pleasantries, then picked up the broom from the wall and started cleaning.

Halfway through the sweep, Duan Yun saw several other colleagues sitting in their respective seats drinking tea and reading the newspaper, so he simply threw the broom against the wall and picked up a copy from the newspaper column scattered by the wall. "People's Daily", sat down at his desk, raised his legs and read it...

The staff of the agency is overcrowded, and many positions are severely overstaffed.

Unlike the front-line workers, there are many ways to dawdle in the office.

In Duan Yun's view, there are not many people working in such a large technical department. Most of them spend a whole morning with a cup of tea and read a newspaper all day. Pass.

For a whole morning, Duan Yun saw a middle-aged man wearing high glasses working on drawing, while the others had nothing to do at all.

When going to the bathroom, when Duan Yun passed Qingyan's office, through the half-open door, he saw that Cheng Qingyan was sitting on the drawing board, writing and drawing, and the desk was full of thick reference books.

In fact, for technical workers in this year, there is still a lot of time and space to make some technical improvements. After all, compared with the high-tech machine tools such as five-axis CNC microelectronics in later generations, nowadays The threshold for designing and retrofitting new machine tools is much lower.

However, the system and system of state-owned enterprises in these years did not provide much original soil for technical workers.

The biggest common problem of state-owned enterprises in the 80s is that there is almost no sense of crisis at all. The production and sales of products are coordinated by the state, and there is no need to worry about selling things, and there is no pressure from competition. In addition, both leaders and employees in state-owned enterprises have iron jobs and lack flexibility. Similar to the large bonus mechanism, workers work more and less, even if they don’t work and take sick leave, they still get paid. Under such circumstances, it is difficult to mobilize the enthusiasm of workers.

In addition, the equipment of state-owned enterprises are all state-owned assets. If they are destroyed, it will be a felony. Therefore, the leaders of state-owned enterprises dare not make any technical changes easily. Once the machines are scrapped, the factory leaders will also be held accountable.

Without stress there is no motivation.

As for the last time the Red Star Gear Factory’s entire factory’s technological transformation competition was actually accidental, it was mainly because after Red Star became the first batch of domestic pilot companies to implement the dual-track price system, in order to increase production and improve efficiency, build more houses to ease the pressure on factory workers’ housing. In addition, the director and secretary of the factory each had their own secret thoughts, so Duan Yun had the opportunity to shine in this technical transformation competition.

However, in the future, with the improvement of the factory's efficiency and the relief of the housing pressure, this kind of technical transformation competition of the whole factory will gradually become history, and the development of the factory will continue to follow a stable and stagnant development model. Duan Yun still depends on this point. It's very clear.

In fact, Duan Yun's current gear hobbing machine modification plan has been basically completed. As long as Gao Lei buys the chip for him, Duan Yun will be able to transform the blueprint plan into a new device soon.

It's just that Duan Yun is a person who doesn't get up early without profit, and his efforts must be rewarded accordingly. In addition, Duan Yun must also have a hole card in his hand that can bargain with the factory leaders in exchange for some benefits. Holding this technical transformation plan in his hands, he is not in a hurry to implement it. He still needs to wait for a suitable opportunity.

After get off work at noon, Duan Yun and Cheng Qingyan left the office building together.

"Are you used to working in an agency?" Cheng Qingyan asked Duan Yun as the two were riding on the road.

"It's okay, it's quite easy." Duan Yun replied casually.

"In fact, when I first entered the factory and entered the technical department, I felt a little uncomfortable. I was really free. I didn't have much work. When I had drawing work, my colleagues in the department also took the initiative to help me finish it. Sometimes It's embarrassing to hear..." Cheng Qingyan said.

"Well, there are quite a lot of enthusiastic people in our department." Duan Yun nodded, but he understood what was going on in his heart. It was obvious that Cheng Qingyan was the daughter of the chief engineer, and the people in the department would naturally try to curry favor with her, and Duan Yun I absolutely do not have this treatment.

In addition, the people in the agency are more clever than the front-line workers. There are not many kind people. If you are honest, you will have endless work every day, while they read newspapers and drink tea, and they still get a lot of money at the end of the month. .

But fortunately, Duan Yun is not a good person. It is impossible for anyone to treat him as a soft persimmon. With his previous life's brains and experience, he can easily dawdle in such a small department.

"By the way, the school informed us that we will be teaching and reporting the day after tomorrow." Cheng Qingyan said.

"Yes." Duan Yun nodded.

"It's just that the teaching site is a bit far away, it's outside the west gate..." Cheng Qingyan frowned slightly, and then said: "It is said that the class is taught on 2.4.6 every week, and it takes very late to come back every day..."

"Are you a little afraid of walking at night?" Duan Yun asked Cheng Qingyan with the corner of his mouth curled up.

"En." Cheng Qingyan nodded lightly.

"Hehe, you don't have to worry if you have me. Besides, we are all classmates." Duan Yunwen said with a smile.

In fact, he naturally understood what Cheng Qingyan said, and hoped that Duan Yun could accompany her to school and home in the future. After all, in 82, social security was still very bad, and it was really not safe for her to ride such a long road at night as a girl.

In addition, Duan Yun feels that Cheng Qingyan is a cute girl sometimes, and she obviously wants to be her bodyguard, but she is too embarrassed to say it directly, and wants to hint at herself in a roundabout way.

"Thank you." Sure enough, Cheng Qingyan smiled sweetly at Duan Yun when she heard the words.

"Thank you, we are all classmates."

"Then let's meet at the club at one o'clock on Sunday afternoon." Cheng Qingyan said.

The notice required reporting at the lecture site at [-]:[-] p.m. on Sunday. Since the journey was a bit far away, it was necessary to leave early.

"No need, I'll just go downstairs to your house and wait for you." Duan Yun said.

"Well, thank you."

"I said no thanks, besides, you are my leader now, you just need to take care of me in the unit." Duan Yun said with a smile.

"Yes!" Cheng Qingyan replied solemnly, then giggled.

After chatting for a few more words, the two separated and went back to their respective homes.

Today is Duan Yun's first day on the day shift, and the office's eight-hour working system allowed him to resume his normal work and rest time.

After opening the door and entering the house, my mother was cooking in the kitchen.

As Duan Yun's income is getting higher and higher, Gao Xiuzhi, who has no financial pressure, no longer stays in the sewing club to work overtime for private work at noon, and now serving Duan Yun's three meals a day has become her most important thing.

Duan Yun now gives his family more than 200 yuan a month for living expenses, plus his mother's salary income, which is enough for their family of three to live a fairly affluent life.

The black market has solved the problem of food stamps and meat stamps, so Duan Yun's usual meals are full of fish and meat, which is quite rich.
