Siheyuan: I am different He Yuzhu

After Director Yang and He Yuzhu decided to name the farm Da Di Feng Shou, he said, "Deputy Director He, let's hold a meeting and announce the establishment of the subsidiary farm to everyone so that you can start your work."

"Director Yang is indeed very thoughtful. Let's do as you wish!"

Director Yang immediately picked up the phone and said, "Hello, is this Director Su from the Personnel Department? This is Yang Zixing."

"Hello, Director Yang, do you have any instructions?" Su Daqiang said respectfully on the other end of the phone.

"Please notify all the cadres at the department level and above in the steel plant to come to the small conference room for the meeting. I have something very important to announce."

"Okay, Director Yang, what time does the meeting start?"

Director Yang thought for a moment and said, "Maybe in half an hour. Oh, and don't forget to notify the machinery manufacturing plant."

"I understand, I'll do it right away."

......

Half an hour later, Gao Hongwei, Yang Zixing, and He Yuzhu walked into the small conference room one by one. After Gao Hongwei sat down, Yang Zixing looked around to make sure everyone was in place. He took a deep breath and slowly said, "I called you all here today because there is an extremely important announcement to make. In order to solve the problem of tight food supply for all employees in the factory, and to ease the employment pressure on the children of all employees in the factory, Secretary Gao, I, and Deputy Director He have jointly decided that we will set up a farm under our factory. After applying to the Ministry of Agriculture and Reclamation, we finally received an official notice today approving our factory to set up a subordinate farm. Here, I solemnly announce that the Dadi Fengshou Farm under the Red Star Steel Plant is officially established!"

As soon as he finished speaking, He Yuzhu took the lead in applauding enthusiastically, and the others responded one after another, and the atmosphere on the scene was extremely warm.

Yang Zixing smiled and pressed his finger in the air, signaling everyone to be quiet. When the applause gradually died down, he continued: "The establishment of Dadi Fengshou Farm is undoubtedly another major event for our factory after the establishment of the machinery manufacturing plant. It not only concerns the vital interests of all employees, but also has far-reaching significance for the future development of our factory. In the past two years, affected by droughts in many places, the food supply of workers in the factory has been reduced. We cannot bow our heads in the face of difficulties. We must actively find ways to overcome it. The establishment of Dadi Fengshou Farm is our factory's weapon to overcome difficulties. If we want to overcome the food difficulties of all employees in the factory, the development of Dadi Fengshou Farm is very important. Therefore, after careful consideration, with the consent of Secretary Gao, I decided to appoint Comrade He Yuzhu as the first director of Dadi Fengshou Farm. Everyone applaud and welcome Deputy Director He to give us a few words and introduce the development plan of Dadi Fengshou Farm." After that, Director Yang took the lead in applauding.

After the applause died down, He Yuzhu coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and then said in his powerful voice: "First of all, I would like to sincerely thank Secretary Gao and Director Yang for their trust in me. They are willing to entrust me with the important task of managing the Dadi Fengshou Farm. I am fully aware of the importance of this responsibility, so I will do my best to run this farm well, and will never let Secretary Gao and Director Yang down!" Before he finished speaking, He Yuzhu stood up and bowed deeply to Secretary Gao and Director Yang to express his sincere gratitude.

After bowing, He Yuzhu continued, "Perhaps some people will have doubts, thinking that our steel plant is already doing well, so why do we need to run a farm? They may even wonder if we are not doing our job properly. So here, I solemnly declare that although our steel plant belongs to the metallurgical industry, running a farm is not a non-business move. In fact, in the past two years, due to the impact of drought in various places, the state decided to temporarily slow down its investment in our factory. But even if the state did not delay its investment in our factory, our factory would not be able to expand its production scale. The key is the lack of sufficient food quotas to support our recruitment of workers."

"In fact, our factory is not the only one that has encountered such a problem. Our upstream iron ore mines are also restricted by the tight food supply and are unable to recruit new workers to expand production. In short, many factories can only maintain the status quo. Without sufficient iron ore and coal, our factory can't produce steel no matter how capable the workers are. As the old saying goes, a skilled cook cannot cook without rice! In fact, even if we do nothing, our factory can continue to expand production after the drought is over, but in this case, our factory's development plan will be pinned on the weather. Instead of waiting, we might as well take the initiative and find ways to change the status quo. That's why the Earth Harvest Farm was born."

"Next, I want to tell you about the operation of Dadi Fengshou Farm. Although this farm is engaged in agricultural production, it is actually an agricultural enterprise! Therefore, the employees we recruit are of the same nature as the employees of our steel plant. They are all working class, not farmers! This point must be kept in mind, and it must be made clear when we promote it to all the employees in the factory later. Director Yang mentioned just now that one of the purposes of establishing the farm is not only to solve the problem of tight food supply for our factory employees, but also to create employment opportunities for the children of the factory employees. Therefore, the farm will no longer recruit workers from the general public, but will give priority to the children of our factory employees."

"After talking about recruiting workers, let me talk about the location of the farm. After my careful research, I think the Western Region Province is a very suitable place for the farm to grow crops. After discussing with Secretary Gao and Director Yang and obtaining their approval, we decided to place the farm in the Western Region Province. There is plenty of wasteland here for us to reclaim into farmland, and the climatic conditions are also more suitable for the growth of crops. Of course, some people may worry that the Western Region Province is far away from Sijiu City, but please rest assured that we have already applied to the higher authorities. Although the farm's land is chosen in the Western Region Province, the registered permanent residence of the workers recruited by the farm will still remain in Sijiu City. This means that you will not lose your registered permanent residence in Sijiu City because of working in the Western Region Province."

"In addition, after the harvest is completed every year, the farm will organize workers to return to Sijiu City to visit their families, and the round-trip fare will be borne by the farm. In this way, everyone can not only work in Xiyu Province with peace of mind, but also have the opportunity to return to their hometown to reunite with their families. I hope these measures can make everyone full of confidence in their future life!"

"The farm's crop planting process will be mainly mechanized, whether it is tilling the land, sowing, or the final harvest, all of which are mainly mechanical. All the machinery used comes from the Red Star Machinery Manufacturing Plant under the steel plant. The Red Star Machinery Manufacturing Plant will provide sufficient and suitable agricultural machinery for the Dadi Fengshou Farm. Last but not least, the farm's first batch of recruitment quotas is only 1000. Please actively promote it to everyone after the meeting. That's all I have to say for now. If you have any questions or don't understand something, you can ask me."

He Yuzhu sat on the podium, his voice carried throughout the conference room through the microphone, and the cadres below listened carefully to every word, with serious and focused expressions. They held pens and notebooks in their hands, and from time to time they recorded important information, ready to go back and convey it to their respective team members.

After that, He Yuzhu stopped speaking and looked around the room, as if waiting for someone to ask a question or comment. However, the room was silent, and no one raised their hand to speak.

"Secretary Gao, Director Yang, I have finished what I want to say. Do you have any other instructions?" He Yuzhu turned his gaze to Secretary Gao and Director Yang sitting next to them and asked politely.

Secretary Gao nodded slightly to show his satisfaction, and cast an appreciative look at He Yuzhu: "Comrade Yuzhu said it very well and very comprehensively." Then he stood up, looked around, and said: "Just now, Deputy Director He briefly talked about his development plan for Dadi Fengshou Farm. Now let me give you a few opinions from Director Yang and I. Director Yang and I fully support all decisions made by Deputy Director He on Dadi Fengshou Farm. During the preparation period of Dadi Fengshou Farm, all departments must fully cooperate with the work of Deputy Director He. Cadres who need to go to support shall not shirk their duties without reason. The appointment of cadres on the farm will be decided by Deputy Director He, and they only need to report to the personnel department of the factory." After speaking, Gao Hongwei looked at Yang Zixing on the side.

Yang Zixing followed Gao Hongwei's words and said, "Everyone must keep Secretary Gao's words in mind. If I find anyone cheating in the construction of the farm, or not working hard, I will definitely deal with it seriously. Comrades, the construction of the farm is our common responsibility and a key step in our future development. I hope everyone can actively participate in it and work hard to achieve our goals!" That's it for today's meeting. "
