Back to the golden age

"What did you say?" In the principal's office of No. [-] Middle School, Principal Zhou didn't seem to understand what Director Ma said just now, and the hand that was pouring tea stopped involuntarily.

"What's the matter? You've lost your ears before you retire?" Factory Manager Ma said with a smile, "I said that Lao Luo's medical retirement report has been officially reported, and I plan to let Song Yuanchao replace Lao Luo as the workshop director."

"Let Xiao Song be the director of the workshop?" Principal Zhou handed the tea to Director Ma, and sat down on the sofa beside him: "I remember that Xiao Song has only been working in the school-run factory for less than two months?"

"I asked Xiao Song to be the director of this workshop entirely for work, and definitely not because of your principal's face." Factory Manager Ma seemed to guess what Principal Zhou was going to say, lit a cigarette and said, "Although Xiao Song's time here is short Some, but after my investigation, I think he is qualified for the position of workshop director. My old horse has been involved in revolutionary work for decades, so I can never be wrong in judging people. Xiao Song is smart, capable, educated, and He is aggressive, and he is still a janitor, so he is the most suitable candidate for the workshop director because of Lao Luo's retirement."

"Old Ma, I heard that you became the master of Aid Korea?" Principal Zhou asked with a smile.

"I said, Lao Zhou, so what if I became his master? Master and apprentice are master and apprentice, work is work, and you don't avoid relatives if you are a virtuous person. Besides, think about it, I have been educated in the revolution for so many years. If I hadn't been optimistic about Xiao Song Can I recognize this apprentice?" When Principal Zhou said this, Director Ma immediately became unhappy.

Principal Zhou smiled and waved his hands when he saw that Director Ma was a little angry: "Old Ma, what kind of person are you? Others don't know what kind of person you are. Of course I am happy that you are optimistic about Yuan Dynasty. After all, he is Lao Song's son. , we are old colleagues with Lao Song. As his elders, you and I are too late to be happy that the children of old friends and colleagues are promising. But Ma, there are some things I haven’t told you before. ……Hey!"

"What? Could it be that he still has some political problems?" When Principal Zhou said this, Director Ma suddenly became a little vigilant. Why didn't he notice it after being together with Song Yuanchao for so many days?

"Problem? Of course not! Absolutely not!"

Seeing Director Ma's misunderstanding, Principal Zhou quickly waved his hands, and then told Director Ma the truth about what he had talked with Song Yuanchao.

After finishing speaking, Principal Zhou sighed and said: "It's a pity that the kid from Yuanchao doesn't go to college. I didn't want him to go to the school to run a factory. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to arrange it directly in the school library? Come on, he can study hard and take this year's college entrance examination. But he is determined to go to the school to run a factory. I really can't stop him, but from the bottom of my heart, I still hope that this kid can take the college entrance examination."

"What else?" Factory Manager Ma had a surprised expression on his face when he heard Principal Zhou mention this matter for the first time.

But soon Director Ma laughed again: "I thought what was going on, didn't I just go to college? I think Xiao Song's idea is right, but in fact, there is something I didn't tell you. Guess what? "

"What's the matter?" Principal Zhou asked curiously.

Smoking proudly while smoking a cigarette, Director Ma talked about the conversation with Song Yuanchao on the first day he came to the school to run the factory, especially mentioning that Director Ma gave Song Yuanchao two arrangements. office, and the second is the lower workshop.

Originally, Director Ma thought that Song Yuanchao would choose a position in the office, but to his surprise, Song Yuanchao chose the workshop instead, and his attitude was extremely firm.

This is also one of the main reasons why Director Ma was moved to accept Song Yuanchao as his apprentice. In his opinion, although Song Yuanchao was young, he was a down-to-earth person. How could such an outstanding young man as a leader not love him? Woolen cloth?What's more, there is Song Guangzeng's relationship between him and Song Yuanchao, so Director Ma made an exception and accepted Song Yuanchao as his apprentice. You must know that Director Ma has been running a factory at the school for so many years, and Song Yuanchao is his only apprentice.

"Xiao Song would rather go to the workshop than stay in the office. Only from this point can see his quality, so I will accept him as an apprentice." Ma said with a little complacency, he took a puff of cigarette and exhaled Smoke, glanced at Principal Zhou and sighed: "Old Zhou, you and I are not young anymore. It has been so many years. Look, our hair is all white."

"Old Luo has retired from illness, and the position of workshop director must be replaced. I think Xiao Song is the most suitable candidate at the moment. Besides, my body seems to be fine on the outside, but I know the actual situation best in my heart. The root cause of the disease that fell before is weather It’s enough to change, and I’m going to quit after another year or two. Who will take over the factory then? Could it be you Lao Zhou? Or someone from school who doesn’t understand anything? Do you have to rely on Xiao Song? Such a good seed to take over?"

In Ma's mind, Song Yuanchao is already his successor. Such a situation is not uncommon in many enterprises, especially small enterprises like school-run factories.

Song Yuanchao is capable and educated, and he is very satisfied no matter what he does or what he does. As he said, why should such a good seedling only take the college entrance examination?Besides, even if Song Yuanchao graduated from university, at best he would be assigned a slightly better job, and Director Ma directly said that Song Yuanchao would take over his class in the future. Isn't such a promise enough?

"Old Ma, I'm afraid this is wishful thinking on your part?" Although Principal Zhou admitted in his heart that Director Ma's words were reasonable, he still couldn't get rid of Song Yuanchao's idea of ​​going to university, and he still wanted to make the last effort.

"If Yuanchao can be admitted to university, it will be the best help for his future. It is good idea for you to let him take over your class in the future, but we can't be so selfish as human beings. We must think about the future of our children!"

"What do you mean? If you drink too much ink and become a principal, you will look down on our working class?" Director Ma suddenly became angry, and squinted at Principal Zhou.

"You...I...I can't anyway! This matter must not be decided so hastily, I am the principal! This matter is related to the future of the child, you must listen to me!"

"Hi! You're the principal, and I'm still the director of the factory! Unreasonable? Are you trying to play tricks on me? Don't forget that if I hadn't led someone to rescue you when you were detained and criticized, your old bones would have died a long time ago." It's gone!"

The two guys, who are more than 100 years old together, immediately confronted each other like children. Seeing the gesture of the director of the horse factory blowing his beard and staring at his eyes, Principal Zhou had learned what it means to be a scholar when he meets a soldier.

"Old Ma, can you justify yourself, why are you rambling so far?" Factory Manager Ma protested, and Principal Zhou's momentum weakened a bit, but he still insisted on the bottom line and did not budge.

Neither of the two old guys could convince the other for a while, so the director of the horse factory lit up another cigarette angrily, and smoked heavily.

After taking a few puffs, Director Ma's eyes suddenly lit up, and he turned to Principal Zhou and said, "Okay, old Zhou, I don't count on this matter, and you don't count on it, everyone said it was for the good of Xiao Song." , so there is no need to be noisy. From my point of view, since this matter is related to Xiao Song, why don't you ask for his personal opinion? You are the school leader, and you should pay attention to the way you do things, but you also need to listen to the opinions of the masses. ,Yes or no?"

"This……."

Principal Zhou was speechless for a moment. When did this old horse learn this trick?These words really stumped him all of a sudden.

In fact, Principal Zhou also knew in his heart that if Song Yuanchao's opinion was sought, the possibility of the director Ma's success would be very high in all likelihood.But if he rejects Director Ma's proposal and goes his own way, then Director Ma will definitely not let him go.

What's more, forcefully twisted melons are not sweet, and forced head pressing of cows without drinking water is counterproductive. Of course, Principal Zhou understands this truth.

His face was cloudy and cloudy. After a while, Principal Zhou nodded helplessly, and finally agreed to Director Ma's suggestion.
