The rejuvenation of a great nation: from educated youth to national treasure scientist

Chapter 49: Fighting

Everyone who gathered in the family compound was vying to greet Wang Haoran.

Wang Haoran naturally had to respond to them appropriately.

After finally dealing with it, Wang Haoran was able to follow Xiao Renming upstairs.

Of course, when you go upstairs, you have to bring the gifts you bought this time.

Lin Yaling was already waiting at the door.

"It's enough for you to just come. Why buy any gifts? Haoran, you're too polite." Lin Yaling said with a smile when she saw the Moutai liquor in Wang Haoran's hand.

Wang Haoran hurriedly greeted him, and then said, "Mom, I will be your son from now on. It's only natural for a son to respect his parents!"

After hearing this, Lin Yaling couldn't stop laughing.

People say that a son-in-law is half a son.

But Wang Haoran's parents are both dead, so he is essentially the only one who has a son.

This child is smart and capable, and he has a sweet mouth. He is really likable.

"Come in quickly, the food is ready, and we're waiting for you to come back."

Only then did Wang Haoran go into the house with Xiao Lijuan.

During dinner, Wang Haoran and Xiao Renming drank two cups of Moutai together.

Xiao Renming sighed and said: "I haven't drunk Moutai for many years, but it still tastes the same, so delicious!"

Wang Haoran smiled and said, "Dad, if you like it, I will give you a few more bottles in the future."

The production of Moutai in 1978 was still relatively small, only more than 760 tons per year.

Therefore, this wine is not easy to buy nowadays.

It is already quite good if the supply and marketing cooperatives at the county level can sell a few bottles.

Lin Yaling joked, "How can we drink such expensive wine so often? Haoran, don't raise your dad's drinking standards too high, or he will drink us bankrupt in the future, right?!"

In fact, now a bottle of Moutai costs 8 yuan, and Xiao Renming's monthly salary is nearly 300 yuan. With Xiao Renming's salary level as a second-level professor, he can buy more than 30 bottles of Moutai every month. Lin Yaling, who is at the bureau level, can also earn more than 200 yuan per month this year, and can buy more than 20 bottles of Moutai.

Both of them can be considered to have high salaries.

In later times, when the price of Moutai soared, even if a professor in a developed area earned more than 20,000 yuan a month, he could only buy a few bottles.

Xiao Ren understood and his wife said, "I don't like what you said. Who would drink Moutai when they have nothing to do on weekdays? Aren't Haoran and Juanjuan coming to see us today? What's wrong with drinking this wine?"

Lin Yaling smiled and said, "Okay, okay! You have a good son-in-law, so what's wrong with drinking some Maotai? Haha!"

The family was chatting and eating, having a great time.

……

On the other hand, Peking University President Yang Dezhong also made an appointment with Beijing Institute of Technology President Liu Xianchao to have a drink together that evening.

Beijing Institute of Technology is not far from Peking University.

But Liu Xianchao really didn't expect that Yang Dezhong would take the initiative to ask him out for a drink in the evening.

The two people can't be said to have a very deep friendship.

On weekdays, we only talk a few words when we meet in meetings, that's all.

But since Yang Dezhong invited him, Liu Xianchao readily agreed.

The two people met at Yang Dezhong's home.

There aren't many restaurants outside now.

Besides, state-owned restaurants are not good places to talk and discuss things.

Therefore, it is more convenient to entertain guests at home.

The two of them prepared only four dishes, a large pork elbow, stir-fried green beans, a dish of cold cucumber, and a dish of cold vermicelli.

The wine they drank was a bottle of Maotai that Yang Dezhong had treasured for many years. "Hey! Comrade Dezhong, you prepared such a sumptuous meal today. Is there something going on?" Liu Xianchao said with a smile after drinking a cup of wine.

Liu Xianchao was born into a military family. He had a flat head, a square face, and sharp edges.

He is also very straightforward.

Yang Dezhong said: "We asked Comrade Xianchao to come here today because we have something to do."

"Have you heard of Wang Haoran?"

Liu Xianchao raised his thick eyebrows and said, "I've heard of him. That kid has been widely reported recently. He's considered a standout among young people. I'm also very interested in him. I've been thinking about meeting him if I have the chance."

"Why are you talking about him all of a sudden? You took the initiative to invite me over for a drink today, wasn't it just for him?"

Yang Dezhong said: "Wang Haoran has a good impression of your school and hopes to study in your school."

Liu Xianchao was very happy to hear this: "Really? How did you know?"

Yang Dezhong said: "Because he is now in the family housing estate of our school. He is the son-in-law of our Peking University professor Comrade Xiao Renming."

"The professors at our school all think that Wang Haoran is a good candidate and should be trained well."

"Well, we wanted him to study at Peking University. But he actually said he was interested in Beijing Polytechnic Institute."

Liu Xianchao stood up from his stool at once: "Haha! I just like Wang Haoran and think he has a good temper with me. I didn't expect that he actually likes our school."

"Principal Yang, then, would you mind taking me to see him?"

Liu Xianchao is a bit impatient.

Yang Dezhong laughed and said, "Haha! Don't be anxious! Just listen to me, okay?"

Liu Xianchao had no choice but to sit down again.

Yang Dezhong said: "This is what I think..."

Yang Dezhong then told them about his plan for the two schools to jointly train Wang Haoran.

Liu Xianchao felt a little annoyed when he heard this and asked, "So, which school is he from?"

"You can't enroll him in both schools, right?"

Yang Dezhong said: "Special matters can be handled specially!"

"Wang Haoran is considered a common student of our two schools. It's okay for both schools to enroll him, right?"

Liu Xianchao smiled and said, "But he only has one file."

"Since Wang Haoran likes Beijing Industrial College, why don't we take the lead and let us enroll Wang Haoran, and you can assist and train him. How do you think? In the future, Wang Haoran will also be considered your student, isn't that a good idea?"

Yang Dezhong shook his head: "Isn't it better for us to take the lead?"

"After all, we initiated this cooperation."

"It would be more appropriate for the files to be kept here."

Liu Xianchao certainly disagreed: "Principal Yang, Wang Haoran obviously doesn't like your school! Otherwise, you wouldn't have come to talk to me, right?"

"So, his file will be kept by us, and we will discuss how to train this student. This is reasonable."

The two of them argued here until their faces turned red.

Neither of them could convince the other.

Finally, Liu Xianchao said, "Principal Yang, I think we should find Wang Haoran and ask him what he wants. What do you think?"

Yang Dezhong thought for a moment and said, "How about this? We can put his files and other things in the Ministry of Education. The two schools can jointly issue admission letters and jointly organize a training team. We can work together to develop a training plan. Comrade Chao will be the first one to go. Do you think this is fair?"

Liu Xianchao thought for a moment and said, "Then I'm afraid I have to apply to the Ministry of Education and ask their opinions?"

"I personally think that this idea is a fantasy, and the Ministry of Education will never approve it. Haha! Comrade Dezhong, let's just follow Wang Haoran's own wishes!"
