Chapter 14 Bold predictions at the dinner table
“Easier said than done.”
Although Zhu Jiansheng has never worked in the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant, Jiang Hui is a new employee. It is not unusually difficult for newcomers to push forward the modification of BJ212.
“It’s not as difficult as imagined.”
“Just upgrade the gearbox from 3MT to 4MT, upgrade the engine from a carburetor engine to an EFI engine, and then upgrade the leaf spring to MacPherson independent suspension and upgraded interior and exterior decorations will greatly improve the overall comfort and operability.”
"Of course, it will definitely be difficult to make such a big change at once."
"For example, if the electronic injection engine cannot be solved temporarily, you can change it later. Change the other things first."< br>
Jiang Hui actually has a relatively clear upgrade plan for BJ212.
Ever since he decided to join the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant, he had already carefully considered this issue.
If you want to make some achievements, it is faster and more conspicuous to start from this aspect.
After all, those who can ride BJ212 in this era are county and regiment-level cadres. As long as they experience it, many people will definitely pay attention to these changes.
When the time comes, Jiang Hui’s reputation as the program exporter will definitely become famous in the system.
“The direction you mentioned is very right, but it is still difficult to implement it in a short period of time.”
“You can consider starting with some smaller details to let you The kind that the factory or supporting suppliers can accept more easily.”
Zhu Jiansheng obviously has a lot more life experience and knows how to achieve the greatest results.
Jiang Hui can naturally understand this.
“We finally went out to eat, so instead of discussing work all the time, let’s talk about where we are going to play tomorrow.”
Seeing the two of them talking more and more animatedly, Zhu Lin was beside him A little unhappy.
Just mention the work matters.
Why do you still say you are addicted?
"Xiaojiang is going to the Capital Internal Combustion Engine Factory for training next week. You might consider going to Xinhua Bookstore to see if there are any books related to factory management."
1978 was the year when Xinhua Bookstores nationwide carried out comprehensive rectification. The results are remarkable.
Some books that could not be bought in bookstores before are slowly beginning to appear in front of everyone.
That’s why Zhu Jiansheng had such a suggestion.
“The Xinhua Bookstore in Dianhai District is just over North Street. Let’s go shopping in the morning, come back for a nap in the afternoon, have an early meal in the evening, and then go back to the dormitory of the health center.”
Zhu Lin thought this suggestion was good and immediately made arrangements for tomorrow.
Since the topic was to buy books for Jiang Hui, she felt there was no need to ask Jiang Hui if he agreed.
It would be different if she bought it for herself.
“Okay, you can go to Xinhua Bookstore and have a look.”
Jiang Hui doesn’t think Xinhua Bookstore can buy any books related to TQC training at this time, but neither does my father-in-law. He had good intentions, and he also wanted to go to the bookstore to see what books were currently on sale.
There are relatively few entertainment activities these days, so reading is a good choice.
Besides, he once thought about whether he could write some books to make some money.
He had hardly read the classic "scar literature" of the 1970s and 1980s since he was a child, so naturally he couldn't write any good articles.
So even though "Head Teacher" was so popular at the beginning of the year, he didn't follow it.
But he has read some classic novels or period TV dramas.
With his extraordinary memory, it is not impossible to publish these things.
At that time, I can also earn some extra money, and I won’t have to spend my wife’s money every day.
Especially since he has a strong appetite, he would definitely not want to wrong himself if he has something delicious to eat.
When he first traveled through time in 1976, he had thought about making extra money.
However, once he inquired about it, he found out that no matter whether he contributed articles to magazines or newspapers or published novels, there was no royalties. His thoughts of making extra money immediately stopped.
On October 12, 1977, the "Notice on the Trial Implementation of Press and Publication Remuneration and Subsidy Measures" officially restored the remuneration system that had been abolished for eleven years. Although the remuneration is still low, ranging from 2 to 7 yuan per 1,000 words for a book manuscript and 1 to 5 yuan for a 1,000 words for a translation manuscript, the remuneration is only based on the number of words and does not pay for the number of prints.
But at least it makes it possible to earn royalties.
However, the direction of the wind is not yet clear at this time, and Jiang Hui does not want to get himself into trouble because of Wen's conviction.
So for more than half a year, he did nothing.
Now that the situation is slowly becoming clearer and clearer, some things can naturally be put on the agenda.
Since we have to ride home after dinner, the family eats at a very slow pace.
Before eight o'clock in the evening, all the food and wine were consumed.
I have to say that no matter who you are in this era, your fighting ability at the dinner table is not bad.
“I’m so full.”
"It would be great if I could eat like this for a while every week."
Looking at the empty plates on the table, Zhu Lin touched her belly without any fat and said with emotion. One sentence.
"You two are married now, so you can't spend money lavishly."
"It's okay to go out to a restaurant to have toothpastes occasionally, but it's not okay to spend money randomly."
At this time, Fang Zhen completely forgot about her rude look when ordering tonight.
But just like an ordinary mother, she exhorts her daughter.
“A meal costs more than 20 yuan. Even if I want to spend money randomly, I have to have that kind of money.”
Zhu Lin feels that her mother is definitely wronged By myself.
She really wants to say that the person who loves going out to restaurants is your son-in-law, not me.
“During this period, many places are discussing the issue of practice being the only criterion for testing truth. I think our country will soon undergo a huge change, and reform and opening up will be the trend of historical development. .”
"It is inevitable that people's living standards will continue to improve and all walks of life will flourish."
"From now on, let alone eating like this once a week, it will be no problem even if you eat like this every day."
"I'm afraid that by that time, everyone will lose their appetite after seeing meat and want to try green vegetables and tofu."
Zhu Lin took Jiang Hui's "truth" as a lie to him. .
However, her lover stood on her side and refuted her mother's words in a subtle way. She was still very happy.
"How is it possible? Who wants to eat vegetables when there is meat to eat?"
Although Zhu Lin is a girl, there is no one in this era who does not like to eat meat.
Not only love eating meat, but also love eating fat meat.
This is completely different from later generations.
No way, there is too little oil and water in my stomach.
Even if you have money, you can't buy meat at will.
“Young man, you said that reform and opening up will be the trend of historical development. On what basis do you judge it?”
Before Jiang Hui could refute what Zhu Lin said, a man next to him An old man wearing a Chinese tunic suit appeared.
Fang Zhen's expression immediately changed and he said, "Don't pay attention to what young people say casually."
Although it was already July 1978, he had experienced that special time. , Fang Zhen is very sensitive.
After saying this, she immediately pulled Zhu Jiansheng, looked at Zhu Lin and Jiang Hui, "After eating, go home quickly."
