Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 272 Retirement

Giving a gift sometimes does not lie in the value of the gift, but in the fact that you value this person in your heart.

Seeing this pen, Qin Gang finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that it was more effective for him to repair the relationship with Duan Yun quickly. Duan Yun can buy him a gift, at least it shows that he has no hostility towards him. Qin Gang is also in the officialdom. It's an old fritter, he can see through the thoughts of ordinary young people at a glance.

But this time Qin Gang obviously thought Duan Yun was too simple.

"I'm planning to do a new technical improvement project in the factory recently, and I hope that Director Qin will provide more support in the future..." Duan Yun said with a smile.

After all, Qin Gang is the leader in the factory. If Duan Yun wants to modify such important equipment as the milling machine, if Qin Gang disagrees, then Duan Yun cannot touch that machine.

In the past, Duan Yun modified lathes in a sneaky way. Even with the backing of the secretary, he didn’t dare to make it too obvious. But now Duan Yun no longer works the night shift in the first workshop. The chief and the workshop directors greeted each other, but Duan Yun was unable to complete the experiment.

At this time, Duan Yun could also see that Qin Gang intended to win him over, and this was a good opportunity for Duan Yun to negotiate terms with him.

"You are a model worker and an expert in technical transformation of our factory, and now you are working in the technical department. If you want to do any technical transformation, I will fully support it!" Qin Gang readily agreed to Duan Yun's request. The matter was obvious, and Duan Yun As a technician himself, he has a certain authority in terms of technical transformation, and he has a successful technical transformation case before, so no one will question him if Duan Yun factory is tossing around casually.

And for him, this is a good opportunity to win over Duan Yun right now, so Qin Gang naturally readily agreed to this kind of smooth sailing.

"Thank you, Director Qin." Duan Yun said gratefully.

"In the future, what kind of workpieces do you need to process or do you need manual assistance for technical transformation? You can tell the directors of the workshops, and I will give you permission!" Qin Gang said to Duan Yun after putting away the pen.

"Okay!" Duan Yun was waiting for Qin Gang's words.

"Then you are busy." Qin Gang said.

"En." Hearing this, Duan Yun got up and left the factory manager's office.

Now that Duan Yun has completed the CNC circuit board of the gear hobbing machine, the remaining plastic shell molds and other workpieces can only be processed in the factory. With Qin Gang's support, Duan Yun can finally let go of his hands and feet to do a big job.

As soon as Duan Yun walked to the door of the technical department, he saw Cheng Qingyan coming out head-on after she had just finished her work in the department.

"I'm back." After seeing Duan Yun, Cheng Qingyan greeted with a smile.

"En." Duan Yun responded.

"I heard...you bought gifts for all the other colleagues in the department..." Cheng Qingyan asked.

"It was all distributed to them just now." Duan Yun naturally knew Cheng Qingyan's thoughts, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he said deliberately: "This time the schedule of overseas negotiations is relatively tight, and I don't have much time to go shopping. I bought it from a foreign exchange certificate store..."

"Ah, it's okay, I know you're busy going abroad." Cheng Qingyan's clear eyes flashed a touch of disappointment when she heard the words, but then she smiled and said to Duan Yun.

"Hehe, actually..."

"Duan Yun, the secretary is looking for you and asked you to go to his office." At this time, another staff member walked over quickly and said to Duan Yun.

"Uh, okay." Duan Yun, who had just returned to the factory, seemed to be a favorite. After Duan Yun responded, he followed the clerk to the secretary's office.

"Hehe, how is Xiao Duan going abroad this time?" Zhao Dongsheng said with a smile when he saw Duan Yun coming in.

"Very good." When Duan Yun arrived at the secretary's office, he immediately became much more relaxed and casual. He went forward to pick up Zhao Dongsheng's water cup, walked to the cabinet where the thermos bottle was placed, filled him with hot water, and handed it over to him. .

"It's good for young people to go outside more often, at least they won't become frogs in the well." Zhao Dongsheng took a sip of the water glass that Duan Yun handed him, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Secretary Zhao, Director Qin called me to his office just now, and I just came out." Duan Yun smiled, and continued: "I gave him a pen just now, and this one is for you..."

As Duan Yun said, he took out another exquisite pen case from his pocket and handed it to Zhao Dongsheng.

Duan Yun knew that Zhao Dongsheng would know about his visit to Qin Gang's office just now, so he simply stated the matter directly, so that it would not easily arouse too much suspicion. After all, the two had been fighting openly and secretly for a long time, and Duan Yun still knew the subtleties.

"Hehe, it's costing you." Zhao Dongsheng said with a smile after glancing at the pen case.

"Your pen was specially selected by me. It has a gold nib. I bought this relatively high-end pen this time when I went out." Duan Yun said.

"Um." Zhao Dongsheng was startled when he heard the words, then he opened the box, took a look at the pen, and said, "This pen is really beautiful, and it's hard to hold it. If you buy such an expensive pen, I..."

"Secretary Zhao, you took such good care of me before, so it's nothing to give you this little gift." Duan Yun said sincerely, and then said, "Actually, I have learned a lot from you during this time. In my heart, you are My benefactor, no one else can take your place in my heart..."

Duan Yun's words clearly showed his loyalty to Zhao Dongsheng,

"Hahaha!" Zhao Dongsheng laughed when he heard the words, and said, "You are much smarter than I thought... But to be honest, your job as an interpreter at the Municipal Bureau is really helpful for your future, but I think Just to remind you, that kind of place has deep water and many ways..."

"I just want to follow you, secretary, the factory is where I stand, and I won't leave." Duan Yun said after a while.

"Hehe, in fact, I'm just giving you some advice. As for the way to go, that's up to you, and I believe that with your intelligence, you can do well wherever you go." Zhao Dongsheng paused, then continued. : "Also, I may not be able to stay in the factory for long..."

"Huh?" Duan Yun was startled when he heard the words, and then asked in surprise: "Secretary Zhao, are you also going to be transferred?"

"Transferred? Where do I go? I was in Red Star when the factory was first established, and it has been more than 20 years now. Is there any other place for me to go besides this factory?" Zhao Dongsheng sighed, and then said: "The provincial bureau has already A notice has been issued, and before the end of the year, I will retire honorably..."

When Zhao Dongsheng said this, his tone was somewhat helpless.

In fact, Zhao Dongsheng had told him before that he was going to retire.

Before the 80s, there was no such thing as retirement for national cadres. Basically, they lived and worked until they were old, so that there were seven or eighty-year-old leading cadres who died of sudden illness and died at work.

In February 1982, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China made the "Decision on Establishing a Retirement System for Veteran Cadres", which officially marked the abolition of the lifelong system of leading cadres that actually existed.
