Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

"No, brother, that game console only has the main screen which is a little expensive, the rest is just an empty shell, is there anyone who would buy it for 3500 dollars?"

After hearing his brother raise this question, Sun Zhengguo did not blame him. After all, he didn't understand it either.

"Zhengan, remember, what we sell is not game consoles, but creativity. Creativity is priceless. As long as the creativity is good enough, there will be unlimited possibilities. Otherwise, it will be worthless."

Even after hearing his elder brother's explanation, Sun Zhengan still didn't quite understand.

But there is one good thing about him, which is that he believes in his elder brother. If he says it is okay, then it must be okay.

After sending his brother away, Sun Zhengguo was not idle either. He picked up a drawing and started to modify it.

This drawing is Chen Lianshan’s latest research. Basically, there is no need for major changes. Just supplement some minor details.

……

Two days later, Director Yu of the General Office came in person and Sun Zhengguo warmly welcomed him into the office.

"Director Yu, please have some tea."

"Thank you."

After both parties sat down, they exchanged a few pleasantries before Director Yu got to the point.

"Comrade Zhengguo, I am here today just to pass on messages. At the same time, I would like to ask for your opinions on some matters."

"Director Yu, you are too polite. If you have anything to say, please speak directly. I am all ears."

Seeing Sun Zhengguo's calm expression, Director Yu nodded with satisfaction. He was indeed the one that was favored.

"Comrade Zhengguo, that person asked me to tell you that you have been wronged for so many years. As everyone knows, you have made the greatest contribution to the entire institute, but you have never been promoted.

Of course, there are both subjective and objective reasons for this, and I will not elaborate on them here. In a word, the organization is preparing to add more responsibilities to you recently, and I hope you are mentally prepared. "

"Thank you for the recognition from the organization, thank you for your superiors, Director Yu, to be honest, I am still young, should I consider it again..."

"Haha! Comrade Zhengguo, you are still angry, right? Look at what this is?"

As he spoke, Director Yu seemed to have been prepared. He took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Sun Zhengguo.

"Whose letter?"

Sun Zhengguo was puzzled for a moment, then opened the envelope, picked up the letter and started reading, while Director Yu was waiting quietly beside him.

After a while, Sun Zhengguo finished reading the contents of the letter and felt extremely heavy.

This is the letter from that person. The words reveal a deep love and care. In the letter, he also blamed himself, saying that he did not do his job well...

"Hey~!"

Sun Zhengguo felt a huge amount of pressure instantly. Compared to that person, what was his grievance compared to?

Then he put the letter away and carefully placed it in a drawer, ready to keep it safe.

"Director Yu, do you have anything else to say?"

"Ok!"

Seeing that Sun Zhengguo no longer had any resistance, Director Yu continued.

"Comrade Zhengguo, when you are promoted, the organization may make a small adjustment to the institute, but it won't be too big. I hope you won't have any resistance at that time."

"Then you have to tell me how to make the adjustments. Are you going to transfer me away?"

Sun Zhengguo rarely made a joke, but he also knew that it was almost impossible.

"Hahaha!"

Director Yu was also amused and pointed at Sun Zhengguo, "How is this possible? Stop playing tricks on me and I'll tell you straight out!

This time the administrative level of the institute will be raised to the vice-ministerial level. It was originally going to be directly under the jurisdiction of the General Office, but Minister Li disagreed. So, the higher-ups decided that we should jointly govern it. Do you have any objection to this?"

Hearing what Director Yu said, Sun Zhengguo seemed to be thinking, "Then who should we listen to in the final decision? Can our institute still have its say?"

"We'll discuss this with each other, and mainly listen to your opinions. Is that okay?"

Director Yu was also completely convinced. How dare you bargain? You should try another unit and see who has the guts to do this.

"Okay, thank you for your understanding, I have no objection to this." Sun Zhengguo smiled.

This is a typical case of taking advantage of others.

After the two finished discussing the ownership of the research institute, they moved on to talk about factory expansion and employee housing.

The higher authorities had no objection to these two items and said that no matter how much it cost, it would be worth it.

However, the two had a disagreement when discussing the number of workers to be recruited.

"That's not right! Director Yu, we have agreed to recruit at least 10,000 people, and even double that if necessary. How come it's changed to 8,000 now? Can this be reduced?"

Director Yu listened to Sun Zhengguo's serious words and did not want to argue. He then took out a report from his briefcase and handed it to Sun Zhengguo.

"look by youself."

Sun Zhengguo took the report and after reading it, he realized that his own people might have made a mistake.

"I'm sorry, Director Yu, this report may need to be revised. I'll take it back first."

"can."

Director Yu nodded, not wanting to make any fuss about this matter.

Anyway, no matter what the final result of this report is, the higher authorities will approve it.

"Okay, Comrade Zhengguo, now that everything has been discussed, I should go back and report. Submit the new report as soon as possible."

"Okay, you're busy with work, so I won't keep you here."

After the two finished their conversation, Sun Zhengguo sent Director Yu downstairs.

However, when he thought of the new project in the laboratory, he took Director Yu to take a look.

Although the game console has not been programmed yet, it doesn't stop Director Yu from watching the fun.

At the very least, it can enhance the confidence of higher authorities.

After Director Yu left, Sun Zhengguo had just returned to the office when three leaders from the branch came uninvited.

Li Shengli rubbed his hands awkwardly, then asked, "Director Sun, um... um... I don't know what the higher authorities think of the report we submitted?

"What attitude?"

Sun Zhengguo looked at the three people in front of him and his face darkened.

"How did you write your report? How dare you ask me? Who told you to write that you were going to recruit 8,000 people?"

“This…?” Li Shengli didn’t expect that things would go wrong, and he didn’t know what to say.

Zhang Huaibei complained: "Old Li, I told you to write that you would recruit 5,000 people, but you insisted on writing that you would recruit 8,000 people. Now you know what's going on! Alas!"

Listening to Zhang Huaibei's scolding, Li Shengli felt very wronged and felt that he was simply taking the blame.

"No, Lao Zhang, you are playing hindsight with me now, is that fun? When I submitted the report the day before yesterday, Deputy Director Zhou said to recruit 10,000 people, and you said 5,000, so I compromised and wrote 8,000, what's wrong with that?"

……

Hearing the argument between the two, Sun Zhengguo felt that they must have misunderstood each other and immediately reached out to stop them.

"You two stop for a moment. I wonder if you have any misunderstandings. I remember clearly telling you that we would recruit at least 10,000 people. Why did you reduce the number?"

"what?"

Li Shengli and Zhang Huaibei couldn't help but blush. It turned out that they wrote too little. They should have listened to Zhou Weimin earlier.

"Director Sun, what should we do now?"

"Of course you have to take it back and rewrite it, but remember this time, write 12,000 people directly, so that you don't run out of people when the time comes."

"Of course, of course. I promise there won't be any mistakes this time."

Li Shengli and the other two were overjoyed, but they didn't expect that there was a way out of their mistake.

Now, two thousand more people have been added out of nowhere, and becoming the largest factory is just around the corner.
