Yang Liufang and Director Wang went out and saw the car already in the hotel parking lot. He walked to the car alone, and Zhang Feng opened the door for him from inside.
"Brother Feng, do you know where I can find that big brother?" Yang Liufang asked as he got into the passenger seat.
"That mobile walkie-talkie that looks like a brick?" Yang Liu almost laughed. Zhang Feng was worthy of being from the army. This thing does look like the kind of walkie-talkies in the army.
"Um."
"I've seen it, I don't know where it is, but the post and telecommunications office should be able to do it. They are responsible for installing the phone. Do you want to go?"
"No, go to the tannery to find Levi."
When they arrived at the tannery, Yang Liufang found Li Wei and asked him about his eldest brother. After confirming that it was the post office, Yang Liufang gave him his ID card and asked him to go to Yanhua to ask for money and buy two first. Li Wei went there on his motorcycle and came back empty-handed in less than an hour. He said that the post office would not handle the matter because there were not enough machines, and the heads of central and state-owned enterprises in the province were unable to handle it.
"Damn it, dogs look down on people, how old is it." Levi said angrily.
Yang Liufang picked up the phone and called Wang Shan.
"Third brother, go get me two mobile phones."
"Mr. Yang, Li Wei asked me to ask, no, he said there are few machines and we have to queue up."
"You didn't say I used it?"
"As I said, I even mentioned it to representatives of the National People's Congress and winners of the National Science and Technology Award, but it didn't work. They said it was out of stock and they had to queue up."
"These guys are cowardly." Yang Liufang put down the phone, thought about it and decided to go there alone. If it doesn't work, he would ask the city or provincial leaders to solve the problem.
He asked Zhang Feng to drive him. When passing by the provincial TV station, he remembered what Director Wang had given him, so he asked Zhang Feng to drive in. Unexpectedly, he was stopped by the armed police soldier on duty at the gate and asked if he had any questions. Make a reservation?
"Appointment? I'm not visiting prison. What's an appointment for?" Yang Liufang was originally angry because of the Big Brother thing, so he said angrily in the passenger seat. The soldier politely replied that this is a unit directly under the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee, and an appointment is required to enter.
Zhang Feng would still be the one to cause trouble, and he would give a standard military salute when getting out of the car. The soldier saw it and immediately returned the military salute.
"The former automobile company directly under the Logistics Department of the XX Army of the Xizhou Military Region... accompanied the representatives of the Xizhou People's Congress to the TV station to conduct an exclusive interview with the Northwest Feng reporter. Please report."
The soldier was on the phone at the guard box. After a while, he saw Northwest Feng wearing a blue denim suit with a white shirt. She was actually dressed the same as Yang Liufang. She was accompanied by a bald man wearing the kind of military uniform that reporters often wear. A greasy man in a green vest hurried over from the floor.
The guard box opened the door to Yang Liufang, and Zhang Feng drove directly into the courtyard and parked the car in one step. Yang Liufang came down and shook hands with them one by one. Northwest Feng introduced that the greasy man was originally the deputy director of the provincial station and the producer of Yang Liufang's interview program.
"Hello."
"Hello, Mr. Yang, after Xiaoxi reported for the special topic, we were supposed to go to the group to visit you first, but you see, we asked you to make a trip."
"It should, it should. Manager Zhang, take two loads of gifts for the boss." Zhang Feng took two loads of roast duck from the trunk very understandingly.
"I bought it when I went to Beijing with the leaders to receive the award. It's a small gift. Please don't show it to others."
"Mr. Yang, you're too polite." The deputy director pretended to refuse, but still motioned for Xifeng to accept it.
The four of them walked up the building together and arrived at the conference room. Director Wang arranged for someone to make tea. Yang Liufang sat down and looked up at Northwest Feng. She no longer had the indulgence last night. She sat reservedly, opened her notebook, and raised her head. The people's eyes met again.
"you..."
"you..."
They both spoke at the same time.
"Oh, you first."
"You go first..." The two of them gave in to each other and stopped talking to each other.
The staff brought tea, and it was Director Wang who broke the embarrassment. Let's start the interview whenever Mr. Yang is free.
"Not now? Isn't this a visit?"
"Oh, no, no, Mr. Yang, you misunderstood. This is to show the style of entrepreneurs in our province, so your personal image, including work status, work scenes, etc., must be designed and photographed."
"Oh, it's so troublesome. How about this? You have dedicated personnel, right? So, Director, you form a team, and our group pays the relevant expenses. You do it, and try not to take up too much of my time."
"Okay, this is the best." The station director was so excited that he was incoherent. A veteran journalist who had worked in the system for most of his life was trying market reform in the station. After the performance appraisal, he was so worried that he went to beg his grandpa to sue grandma for advertising. I didn't expect to meet someone so refreshing and delivered to my door.
"Then Mr. Yang, how can we contact you?" Northwest Feng asked gently.
"Contact, oops, I'm going to apply for that Big Brother service today, but those people who broke the post office won't do it. I'm really upset. In this way, you call the Chengbei Supply and Marketing Cooperative to find Mr. Wang Yanhua, including the details of the fee and interview, and let her arrange for someone to talk to you. Butt.”
Everyone chatted for a while, and after seeing that it was almost time to get off work and it was too late to go to the post office, Yang Liufang said goodbye and left.
The next morning, the deputy director of the post office actually called the tannery and told them to find Mr. Yang and Mr. Li, and asked them to come to the post office in the afternoon to apply for mobile phone network access with the fees and ID cards. He also apologized to Mr. Yang on behalf of the employees of the business office. , saying that the people below are ignorant. Yang Liufang got the mobile phone on the same day, and the post office also gave him a serial number followed by four 7s for him to use. Yang Liufang chose a number ending in 6608 for Li Tongfu. When he got the Big Brother call, he dialed Director Wang first. After a beeping reply, the call was connected.
"Brother Wang."
"You got it so quickly?"
"you know?"
"Of course, Xiaoxi asked me how to solve it, and I asked her to find the director of the station. The director of their station is the deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee. You can't even break your legs for just one sentence, so you guys should get along more. I I'm busy, hang up first." Only then did Yang Liufang know that it was Bei Xifeng who asked the station director to help him. At that time, she used her mobile phone to call the supply and marketing cooperative and told her that a provincial and Taiwanese reporter would contact her and that the fee would be approved to them within 200,000 yuan, and she did not need to sign.
This interview program took nearly two months to film. Because of the abundant funds and because it was Northwest Feng's first interview program and a key achievement for the deputy director's job evaluation, everyone in the station paid great attention to it. Not only were Yang Liufang's work scenes shot, but also his work status, including group meetings, and the scene where Yang Liufang and provincial and municipal leaders received visiting guests. The image design of many scenes was completed by Beifeng himself. Because he often took Yang Liufang to try on clothes, the owner of the largest suit shop in the underground mall at Xiguan Cross thought they were a couple. Because of this image design, Yang Liufang is even more confident and handsome when attending events. In addition, his speech is organized and "moisturizing things quietly", which is highly appreciated by provincial and municipal leaders.
During a prime time after Xiaohan, the program was broadcast. The female host Xibei Feng on the TV was witty and elegant, asking questions with depth, while the man was elegant and handsome, and his answers were broad and high-level. The show goes from Yang Liufang clocking in to work in different companies to a busy working state, answering mobile phone calls at the same time, approving many documents every day, listening to reports from more than a dozen people, then going to the workshop to inspect, receiving merchants who came to inspect, and even driving. While dealing with business... At the end of the film, Beifeng also designed a shot of him running by the Yellow River against the wind.
After the program was broadcast, it received a great response. It not only inspired young people in the northwest province and business elites like Yang Liufang to learn from it, but also expanded the group company's popularity. This type of talk show is similar to the most popular "Zhengda Variety Show", with interior and exterior scenes, a combination of reality and reality, and a full and three-dimensional representation of the characters. This program ranked first in Taiwan's year-end competition and also won the grand prize in the national TV program competition. So much so that in the following years, many TV station interview programs across the country followed this routine.
After nearly two months of filming, the two got along day and night, and the inexplicable affection between the two young men and women of similar age gradually heated up. Whether it was recording a program on camera or having a private communication off camera, the two people had an inexplicable feeling when they looked at each other. The flower of love, at the end of this year, is like the snowflakes dancing in the northwest sky, pure and uncontrollable, permeating the time and space of the two of them.
Li Tongfu and Yanhua consulted Yanhua's university teachers and formulated a management system based on the actual situation of the group company. After more than two months of standardizing clocking in and out, the work of the group company's subsidiaries is in order, and everyone has become accustomed to commuting on time. At the annual meeting, in addition to generous bonuses and dividends, as well as cheerful draws, an employee handbook was also promulgated. Li Tongfu hoped that everyone would study it carefully during the Spring Festival holiday and implement it in accordance with institutionalized management after the new year.
The leather jackets and large-toe shoes made by the tannery were old-fashioned but very warm. Lao Zhou, who had been released on medical parole, sold like crazy in the vast markets in the northwest and northeast.
At the end of the year, the sales of furniture and VCD reached new highs, creating huge profits for the group company.
The industrial and trade company of the aluminum factory and the Xizhou Plastics Factory also got acquainted with Yang Liufang through the exchange of business cards when he went to Beijing to receive the award. The person in charge of the automobile company in other provinces and the fan company in Sichuan came to the group for an on-site inspection and were quite satisfied and obtained new orders. .
The auspicious snowfall in this factory at the end of 1990 brought vitality and hope to the vast plateau of this ancient land in the northwest.
End of volume one.
