Chapter 43, Borrowing Money (Additional updates for further reading)
Regarding the material issue of the seat belt buckle, Chen Guohua did not give an answer on the spot.
There is a saying that too much is too late.
He has now given a technical design sketch of this safety belt, and the general technical principles have been clearly explained.
This is enough to prove his own ability.
In addition, there is another saying, which is to properly preserve your strength and hide your clumsiness.
Some leaders may not like subordinates who behave too perfectly.
Although Bai Lichun was very optimistic about Chen Guohua, his subordinate.
However, Chen Guohua and Bai Lichun didn't know each other for long.
This is where heart-to-heart talks begin, and it is not appropriate to hand over all the technology.
After all, leaders must be given opportunities to perform, correct, and comment on their subordinates.
Moreover, Chen Guohua has to behave more reasonably and not reveal his flaws too directly.
The material of this buckle is just right.
The material requirements of the buckle have only two points: stability and safety, and quick unlocking and locking.
As for beauty, practicality, etc., that is not something to consider at this time.
"In this case, you can think about it again when you go back, and at the same time, you can refine and sort out the technical drawings and hand them over to me."
After a pause, Bai Lichun continued: "By the way, let's get familiar with the limousine we are designing with other colleagues, so go ahead."
"Okay, Director Bai, I'll go out first."
After coming out of the conference room, Lao Chongguang and others in the office had not yet raised their heads.
It wasn't until he confirmed that Director Bai had returned to his office that he approached Chen Guohua's workstation and started chatting.
However, they didn't chat for long before everyone started working.
The design of a luxury car is complicated and requires too many technologies.
One morning passed quickly.
During lunch, Jiang Ruolin and the others took Chen Guohua to the cafeteria.
The new factory has the largest number of people, more than 2000 people.
There are twelve windows for serving food in the cafeteria alone, so you can imagine how big they are.
I heard from Jiang Ruolin and the others that there will be a canteen in the office area in the second phase, which will also be very large.
It happened to be meal time, and the workers, technicians, leaders, etc. all came to the canteen to eat together.
In a large factory with more than 2000 people, they are all crowded in the canteen, so as far as you can see, they are all filled with heads.
After lunch in the cafeteria, Chen Guohua asked Bai Lichun for instructions, and then left the accessories factory.
Seeing that Chen Guohua was no longer at his work station.
Lao Chongguang and others were immediately envious.
Whether it's just pure envy or has ulterior motives is unknown.
However, even if they were unhappy, they had nothing to say.
Because in the morning, Xue Yajun, the second in command, personally confirmed Chen Guohua's work.
Therefore, Lao Chongguang and others could only hold it in.
After leaving the design department, Chen Guohua took the translation materials and went to the personnel department.
"Chief Fan, I'm sorry to bother you, I want to ask something."
Before he finished speaking, Fan Xinhe interrupted with an unhappy expression: "I told you to call me Uncle Fan. Do you not want to recognize me as your uncle?"
The scene in the morning made Fan Xinhe more certain of his own judgment: Chen Guohua is indeed not a creature in the pool.
Even the second-in-command and factory director Liu value Chen Guohua so much.
So this kid's rise to fame is just around the corner.
Chen Guohua felt embarrassed when he heard this, and quickly changed his words: "Uncle Fan, that's it. I want to know from you, can I get a salary advance from the Finance Department?"
"I know there's no such rule, but I promise, it's just this once."
When Fan Xinhe heard this, the smile on his face immediately froze.
He just sighed and said angrily: "You kid really don't regard me as one of your own!"
The other party's words made Chen Guohua even more embarrassed, so he could only laugh in silence.
Bullshit on your own people!
The other party was so enthusiastic yesterday, and he was just here for the first time, so how could he know what the other party was planning?
If you're not careful, you won't even know when it was sold.
Chen Guohua does not think that he is a sensible person who has traveled through time in later generations.
I just relied on my little experience in the workplace and reading so many history books and TV series.
He thought he was an old fox who could see through people's hearts.
He admired and was a little afraid of these people in the 50s.
Especially leaders like Fan Xinhe, they are all people who have experienced life and death from the war years before living to this time.
This kind of person, let alone experience in political struggle in the workplace, is at home in the kind of struggle in government agencies and units.
People understand it in their hearts.
"The Finance Department definitely has no way to advance wages. There is no such precedent."
After a pause and seeing the disappointment on Chen Guohua's face, Fan Xinhe continued: "However, since you call me Uncle Fan, this matter is easy."
"You need money to purchase supplies, right? You didn't burn the kang last night, so you didn't sleep, right?"
"This is 20 yuan, as well as coal stamps, food stamps, and meat stamps. I lent it to you. You can pay it back to me when you are richer. Don't worry!"
The former was stunned when he saw the money and tickets.
Unexpectedly, I only knew this person, the head of the personnel department, for two days.
You actually trust him so much and are willing to lend him so much money? Although he didn't know what the other party's specific plans were and he was still optimistic about him, Chen Guohua was very grateful.
At present, he is indeed short of money, so he will not refuse.
"Thank you, Uncle Fan!"
He said seriously without any hesitation.
Fan Xinhe suddenly laughed happily and said, "That's right. If anything happens, remember to come to me."
Seeing Chen Guohua collect all the money and tickets, he continued to express concern: "By the way, when do you plan to bring your sister to the city?"
The Spring Festival is very close now.
"Just two more days." Chen Guohua thought for a while and said: "I have to decorate the house in Nanluogu Lane a little, and then I will take them over."
"Okay, do you want me to take you to the department store?"
"No, Uncle Fan, I'll leave first."
After coming out of the personnel department, Chen Guohua was somewhat touched in his heart.
For now, let’s take it one step at a time.
In the next half day, he went straight to the department store and purchased coal stoves, square tables, pots and bowls and other items.
Needless to say, prices in this era are really cheap.
All these things cost less than ten yuan.
The truck master who helps transport these groceries only costs [-] cents for a trip, which is really not expensive.
After moving these things back to Courtyard No. 98, Chen Guohua didn't stay long and immediately went to the coal shop again.
Beginning in [-], the Beijing Daily published an editorial titled Promoting Briquettes.
It was from this time that the era of coexistence of wood burning and coal burning in the capital began.
