Siheyuan: Xu Damao corrects his evil ways

Chapter 284 Chapter 285, Director Yang’s revenge

It should be said that leaders have no personal grudges.

So after Xu Damao declined Director Yang's promotion, Director Yang even praised Xu Damao a few words. For example, work hard and don’t care about fame or anything like that.

Xu Damao was confused when he heard this. He was just afraid of causing trouble and had nothing to do with the praise.

Xu Damao said a few hypocritical polite words, and then thanked him again before saying goodbye and leaving Factory Director Yang's office.

As soon as I closed the door, I heard a "click" inside, which was the sound of ceramic hitting the floor.

Xu Damao trembled, but straightened his back instantly. Offending is certain. If you don't want to offend Factory Director Yang, you have to offend Deputy Factory Director Li and Section Chief Wu.

If you offend Director Yang, at least don't get involved in this matter.

But with Xu Damao's rank, if he got involved in this matter, he might end up being shattered to pieces.

Xu Damao really can't do what Director Yang wants to do!
Advocating this matter is actually quite technical. If the steel rolling mill is still under the control of Director Yang, it will be better to do something.

But with the current situation in the steel rolling mill, as long as anyone dares to make false claims, others will immediately write to them.

The output of the key steel rolling mill is there, and even if you want to falsify it, it cannot withstand inspection.

Director Yang's revenge came quickly, which shows that the unsatisfactory work during this period made the boss feel very unhappy.

Xu Damao was promoted to a farm machinery maintenance factory below the steel rolling mill, where there was a cinema built with the help of the steel rolling mill. It is said to be a cinema, but in fact it is just a room and a curtain.

Xu Damao had been there before and helped train two indoor projectionists in that cinema.

The technical skills taught by this thing must have shrunk.

But these days, watching movies is quite a luxury, and no one cares about it that much.

These days, units can be considered collective or public. There is no clear explanation.

For example, supply and marketing cooperatives in the countryside are logically considered township collective enterprises, and everyone pools funds to build and operate them. But now, it has also become a subsidiary company in the supply and marketing line.

The same is true for the cinema. It was originally built by a steel rolling mill to support rural construction, a farm machinery maintenance, a cinema and a bathhouse, etc., and a number of people's livelihood projects.

But the staff wages were paid by the local township commune, so it didn't matter at first. But over time, the operating income could no longer support staff wages, and it became a burden on the local commune.

Among commune citizens, who is willing to spend money to go to the movies? The key point is that these units are all units-aided construction, rather than direct construction from above. Therefore, the staff inside are all temporary workers from the local commune and do not even have an official establishment.

A person pays ten yuan a month, which is more than one hundred yuan.

As far as the commune is concerned, this is a considerable burden.

As time went by, the commune turned to the steel rolling mill. It's impossible to take care of the steel rolling mill. You can't ask for everything when it's built. After the construction is completed, you still have to spend money to support the commune, right?

But it is impossible to refuse directly, as that would be a bit inconsistent with the policy. After all, workers and peasants are all brothers.

Therefore, occasionally the steel rolling mill will provide some support from its own small treasury in the name of support. A meal to satisfy your hunger, and a movie during the holidays are all the functions of this cinema.

Now Xu Damao is asked to take up the post of deputy director of the machine repair factory and director of the cinema. One can imagine how "fat" this position must be and how "deep" Director Yang's "care" for Xu Damao is.

This transfer made Section Chief Wu feel embarrassed. He quickly called Xu Damao to his office to comfort him, telling Xu Damao not to get emotional and to listen to the arrangements first. In half a year, or at most a year, he will find a way to bring Xu Damao back.

Section Chief Wu said: "Comrade Damao, this promise is not given to you by me personally, but by that person. Since you dare to wrong yourself to take care of the overall situation, then we will not forget you. Credit.”

It can be said that Section Chief Wu's words were not official at all, and his meaning was quite clear. Even if Xu Damao suffered injustice for them, neither he nor Deputy Director Li would forget him.

In fact, Xu Damao was not as aggrieved as Section Chief Wu thought. Apart from being farther away, he was left in peace.

Needless to say, the temporary position of deputy director of an agricultural machinery maintenance factory is a false title. Besides, there are only a few farm machines in the entire commune.

The farm machinery maintenance shop mainly repairs some farm tools every year.

Needless to say about movie theaters, Xu Damao is not a god, and it is impossible for him to make movie theaters prosperous as soon as he goes there.

To put it bluntly, a temporary job rather than a transfer says it all.

A temporary job can be punishment or training. It depends on whether Xu Damao can figure it out and understand it.

If Xu Damao goes to Factory Director Yang now to realize his mistake. Then maybe this temporary job is training.

But Xu Damao refused to admit his mistake, so we could only hope that Deputy Director Li would find his conscience and think of him one day in the future.

This is probably the reason why Xu Damao refuses to teach his disciples in the original drama. If Xu Damao is the only projectionist in the steel rolling factory now, even if Director Yang hates him again and proposes to demote Xu Damao, other leaders will have reasons to object.

Now that the matter was over, Xu Damao didn't hesitate. He verbally thanked Section Chief Wu, said goodbye to his colleagues, said a few words to Ma Hua, and then pushed his bicycle to the agricultural machinery repair shop.

Why even have a bicycle? Even though he is on a temporary job, his salary on file is still at the steel rolling mill. The superiors did not ask him to take back the bicycle, and Xu Damao was not so noble as to take the initiative to hand over the bicycle.

When Xu Damao arrived at the maintenance shop, the director was an acquaintance. It was Director Lu whom Xu Damao met when he went to the countryside to play movies, and he became the village director after he returned from the army. There is a beautiful niece named Lu Juan, who is the mute widow who originally asked Xu Damao to help introduce her partner.

Everything in the world just happens by chance. Coincidences don’t make a book!

Director Lu had already stood in the guard room waiting for the deputy director sent to him by the steel rolling mill. When he saw Xu Damao, Director Lu, it should be Director Lu, was obviously stunned for a moment, and then the smile on his face was obviously enthusiastic. A few points. He greeted Xu Damao, stretched out his hands from afar, and greeted Xu Damao: "Projectionist Xu? I never thought that you would be sent to work with me!"

Xu Damao was also a little confused, and it was normal to be confused, because Director Lu was obviously not dispatched by the steel rolling mill, so being the full director should be an arrangement within the commune.

Xu Damao stretched out his hand to shake hands with Factory Director Lu, a little dazed. The smile on his face did not hide his surprise. Xu Damao asked: "Director Lu, right? Weren't you originally the village director? How did you get transferred here?"

Director Lu was obviously very excited, but Xu Damao understood it when he saw a group of sparrows walking in the maintenance factory.

There is no movement at all in such a big yard. It is conceivable that Director Lu, the director of the factory, may also be a short-term commander.
