Siheyuan, my new life

At 8:30 in the morning, Deputy Commander Fang Yuandong arrived at the SJ Mountain Sanatorium on time. Lin Yu had been waiting here early. After waving goodbye to the "fellow patients" and leaders of the sanatorium, two jeeps sped away.

At 10 a.m., almost all the leaders of the Red Star Steel Mill appeared outside the gate. Even the three deputy directors of the Security Department and several section chiefs stood by. Fortunately, it was past working hours, otherwise it would definitely attract the attention of the workers.

Occasionally, workers and cadres passing by noticed the situation outside the gate, but they just looked at it curiously, talked about it for a few minutes, and then left in a hurry. After all, it was working hours.

Someone whispered "coming", and everyone looked forward and saw four jeeps speeding along the road leading to the steel mill in the distance.

Everyone straightened their backs involuntarily, staring at the approaching jeep with different expressions.

The jeep slowly stopped about four or five meters away from the welcoming crowd. The doors opened one after another, and several people got out of their jeeps. Two colonels in military uniforms and three public security officers in uniform appeared in front of everyone.

Qin Ming, deputy director of the Security Department and instructor of Jiaodaokou Police Station, walked quickly through the crowd, first stood at attention and saluted the newcomers, and then introduced both parties.

In fact, Qin Ming only knew Liao Guangan, the director of the Personnel Department of the Municipal Bureau, and Hu Dahai, the director of the Dongcheng District Branch. He didn't know the identities of the other three. However, on the steel mill side, only he, the instructor of Jiaodaokou Police Station and the deputy director of the Security Department, was the most suitable bridge for communication between the two sides.

Qin Ming briefly introduced to the visitor several main leaders of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill present, including the factory party committee secretary Guo Sanhu, factory director Song Jiefang, trade union secretary Xue Yingwu, deputy factory director Yang Weimin, deputy factory director Dong Dongliang and logistics director Li Huaide, as well as two other deputy directors of the Security Department. As for the other directors and section chiefs, there was no need to introduce them to the leaders one by one.

The next introduction work could only be done by Director Hu Dahai of the Dongcheng District Branch. He introduced to the leaders of the steel mill the deputy commander of a certain military Far East, Deputy Minister Zhao of the Municipal People's Armed Forces Department, Director Liao Guang'an of the Municipal Bureau's Personnel Department, and Lin Yu, the executive deputy director of the Dongcheng District Branch and the newly appointed director of the Security Department of the Red Star Steel Mill, who was particularly concerned by the people opposite. Especially when everyone heard that Lin Yu's administrative level was the thirteenth-level deputy bureau level, they couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

You should know that the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill is a deputy bureau-level enterprise directly under the Ministry of Industry. Only Shuij Guo Sanhu and the factory director Song Jiefang have the administrative level of the thirteenth level of deputy bureau-level, and the highest administrative level of the other factory leaders is only the fourteenth level of director. As for the so-called directors and deputy directors in the factory, most of them are deputy directors or section chiefs, and the section chiefs in the factory are only at the deputy section level.

After a brief introduction, Guo Sanhu, as the head of the Red Star Steel Mill, warmly invited Deputy Commander Fang, Deputy Minister Zhao and others to the small conference room of the steel mill. After everyone was seated, the female logistics staff who had been waiting outside the door quickly poured tea for everyone and then quickly walked out of the small conference room.

Director Liao Guangan took out a red-headed document from his briefcase, stood up and said loudly: "Deputy Commander Fang, Deputy Minister Zhao, Guo Shuji, Director Song, Director Hu and all comrades from the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, I am entrusted by Director Wan of the Municipal Bureau to announce the personnel appointments of the Ministry of Industry, the Municipal People's Armed Forces Department, and the Municipal Public Security Bureau."

Everyone in the small conference room sat up straight with serious expressions, especially the leaders of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, who listened carefully to every word, fearing that they would miss anything crucial.

The clear voice of Liao Guang'an echoed in the small conference room: "After research, Comrade Lin Yu is appointed as the deputy secretary of the party group and executive deputy director of the Beijing Dongcheng District Branch, and concurrently the director of the Security Department of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. Comrade Lin Yu, male, is 27 years old. He joined the revolutionary army at the age of 16. He is a proletarian revolutionary soldier who has experienced the test of war. He has made outstanding military exploits in the battlefield of North Korea. He has been awarded the first-class merit twice, the second-class merit three times, and the third-class merit six times. He has made outstanding contributions to the construction and development of our army. Comrade Lin Yu is specially awarded the rank of Army Colonel; Comrade Lin Yu is now temporarily transferred to civilian work due to serious injuries and retains his military status. I hope that Comrade Lin Yu can make persistent efforts and create greater glory in his new position; at the same time, all cadres and employees of the Beijing Dongcheng District Branch and the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill are required to actively cooperate with Comrade Lin Yu's work, develop and progress together. New Longguo Ministry of Industry, Beijing Public Security Bureau, Beijing Municipal People's Armed Forces Department October 2, 1955"

After Director Liao Guangan finished reading the appointment letter, warm applause broke out in the small conference room.

Deputy Commander Fang Yuandong and Deputy Minister Zhao also made brief speeches on behalf of the army and the People's Armed Forces Department respectively. The main idea was to highly praise Lin Yu's past achievements and require all cadres and employees of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill to fully support and cooperate with the work.

After the two men finished speaking, Lin Yu stood up and saluted everyone present. Then, Guo Sanhu, the head of the Red Star Steel Mill, delivered a welcome speech on behalf of the mill. However, careful people could find that Guo Sanhu did not mention a word about the requirements in the appointment letter and the two leaders' mouths in his speech. It was obvious that the head of the steel mill was quite dissatisfied with such requirements and was too lazy to even do the superficial work.

Fang Yuandong and Deputy Minister Zhao looked at each other, and a sneer appeared on the corners of their mouths. The superior department had clearly issued an order, but Guo Sanhu dared to openly ignore it. The two of them must report this situation to their superiors after returning. Moreover, the attitude of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill today was obviously deliberately neglectful. With the presence of the deputy commander of a certain military and Deputy Minister Zhao of the People's Armed Forces Department, they did not hold a welcoming meeting for the whole factory. This was simply a blatant expression of resistance to Lin Yu, the new director of the Security Department.

After Guo Sanhu finished speaking, Lin Yu also stood up and said a few high-sounding words, and a simple welcome ceremony was completed. At the invitation of the leaders of the steel rolling mill, everyone walked into the small canteen together and attended the welcome banquet held by the steel rolling mill for Lin Yu, the director of the security department.

After Guo Sanhu made a few enthusiastic toasts, an awkward scene occurred. Deputy Commander Fang said he had military duties and could not drink and did not even pick up the wine glass; Deputy Minister Zhao did not drink at all on the grounds that he had a meeting in the afternoon; as for Lin Yu, it was even simpler, he was not feeling well and was not allowed to drink according to the doctor's orders.

Looking at the constantly changing expressions on Guo Sanhu's face, Liao Guangan and Hu Dahai simply stabbed him twice in succession, with the reason being that they were going to the bureau in the afternoon to report to Director Wan.

So the welcome banquet ended in a bad mood. Deputy Commander Fang and Deputy Minister Zhao only ate two mouthfuls of cold dishes and stood up to say goodbye without waiting for the hot dishes to come. Liao Guangan and Hu Dahai looked at each other and smiled and followed the two leaders. After seeing the four people off, Lin Yu did not return to the canteen at all. Instead, he told Qin Ming, the instructor of Jiaodaokou Police Station who was following closely beside him: "Take me to the Security Department, and notify all the section chiefs of the Security Department to hold a meeting in ten minutes."

The other section chiefs of the Security Department were standing three or four meters away and heard Lin Yu's instructions clearly. Three of them followed the director's footsteps without hesitation, and the other two hesitated for a while and could only catch up quickly.

I had only taken a few steps when a hurried voice suddenly came from behind: "Director Lin."

Lin Yu stopped and turned to look in the direction of the voice. He saw Li Huaide, the director of the logistics department of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, hurried over. He walked up to him and said with a smile on his face: "Hello, Director Lin, I am Li Huaide from the logistics department."

Lin Yu smiled and nodded: "Hello, Director Li, is there anything I can do for you?"

Li Huaide said with a smile: "Director Lin, you also know that one of the tasks of our logistics department is to provide good logistics support for the leaders. I would like to ask Director Lin how to arrange his house? Do you prefer to live in a tube building or a courtyard house?"

Lin Yu smiled and patted the other person's shoulder: "Thank you, Director Li, but my housing bureau has already arranged it for me. It's in the west wing of No. 95 Nanluoguxiang. Director Li is welcome to come and sit with us in the future."

Li Huaide smiled and agreed repeatedly, then said a few words and left.

Looking at Li Huaide's departing back, Lin Yu smiled secretly. Obviously, this controversial guy who often appeared in Tomato's many time-travel novels was definitely a person with a meticulous mind and quick reactions. To be able to become the director of the logistics department of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, not only did this guy have a good father-in-law, but his own abilities should not be underestimated.

Today, when the two main factory leaders deliberately ignored him, Li Huaide still dared to chase after Guo Sanhu and Song Jiefang, who were standing at the door of the canteen with livid faces, and asked for instructions on housing issues. Obviously, this also meant that he, as the logistics director, was not worried about upsetting the two, and Li Huaide was confident enough to face it.

At this time, Li Huaide was no more than thirty-five or thirty-six years old, about 1.7 meters tall and a little fat. He always had a warm smile on his face, giving people a sense of intimacy when they first met.

To be honest, compared to Deputy Factory Director Yang Weimin who always looks righteous, Lin Yu's heart still approves of Li Huaide, the real villain. This may be related to the sales work he had been engaged in in his previous life. He felt a sense of incompatibility and unfamiliarity when he first met Yang Weimin.

Currently, in the leadership team of the Red Star Steel Mill, Guo Sanhu and Song Jiefang are both old comrades in their sixties. It is estimated that under normal circumstances, these two can only work for another two to three years at most. They are purely transitional figures. According to normal development, the Red Star Steel Mill will be the stage for the battle between Yang Weimin and Li Huaide in the next ten to twenty years.
