Siheyuan: Mastery started in the 50s

At this moment, there was a light knock on the door. Wang Qiang got up and opened the door, and saw Jia Dongxu standing outside. Jia Dongxu was an old resident of the courtyard and an old friend of Wang Qiang.

"Dongxu, it's so late, is there something wrong?" Wang Qiang asked.

Jia Dongxu nodded, his expression seemed a little heavy: "Qiangzi, I want to talk to you about something."

Wang Qiang let him in, poured him a glass of water, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Jia Dongxu hesitated for a moment and said, "I heard that you have performed very well in the factory recently and everyone trusts you."

Wang Qiang smiled slightly: "It's okay, it's all for everyone's good."

Jia Dongxu nodded: "I want to ask, have you ever considered bigger development?"

Wang Qiang was a little confused: "Greater development? What does that mean?"

Jia Dongxu put down his water cup and said seriously, "Have you ever thought about jumping out of this circle and exploring a wider world?"

Wang Qiang was stunned. He had never thought about this question. He had always been thinking about how to gain a foothold in the machinery factory and how to make his family better, but he had never considered greater development.

Seeing Wang Qiang was silent, Jia Dongxu continued: "I have a friend who opened a company outside and is recruiting people. I think you can give it a try, maybe you will have a better opportunity."

Wang Qiang's heart

Wang Qiang found a job in a steel rolling mill. With his diligence and intelligence, he quickly became a capable assistant in the factory and won recognition from his leaders and colleagues.

Wang Qiang found a job in a steel rolling mill, but he won the recognition of his leaders and colleagues with his diligence and intelligence.

That evening, Wang Qiang finished a day's work and dragged his tired body back to the courtyard. As soon as he entered the courtyard, Qin Huairu came up to him and said, "Qiangzi, is the factory busy today?"

Wang Qiang wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied with a smile: "It is busy, but you will get used to it."

Qin Huairu nodded: "It's not easy. You work so hard, there will definitely be good results."

Wang Qiang said gratefully: "Thank you, Sister Huairu. With your support, I will work harder."

As they were talking, Jia Dongxu came over and patted Wang Qiang on the shoulder: "Qiangzi, I heard that you are doing well in the factory, and the leaders are praising you!"

Wang Qiang smiled modestly: "It's OK, it's what I should do."

Jia Dongxu continued, "By the way, do you have time tonight? I'll buy you a drink and we can chat."

Wang Qiang nodded: "Okay, it's a good time to relax."

In the evening, Wang Qiang came to Jia Dongxu's house. A few side dishes and a bottle of white wine were already on the table. The two sat opposite each other. Jia Dongxu filled two glasses with wine and raised his glass: "Come on, Qiangzi, let's have a drink to celebrate your contribution to the factory!"

Wang Qiang also raised his glass and said cheerfully, "Cheers!" They both drank it in one gulp. As the alcohol started to rise, the atmosphere gradually became more heated.

Jia Dongxu put down the cup and said seriously: "Qiangzi, you are doing well in the factory, but have you ever thought about your future plans?"

Wang Qiang looked at him in confusion: "Future plans? What do you mean?"

Jia Dongxu smiled slightly: "It's a longer-term plan. You are doing well in the factory now, but have you ever thought that there are greater opportunities waiting for you?"

Wang Qiang pondered for a moment and shook his head: "I haven't thought about it. Now I just want to do my job well and make my family better." "That's right. However, sometimes opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. You are so talented that you should not be limited to your current position."

Wang Qiang was somewhat moved, but still said: "Dongxu, you are right, but I don't have a better opportunity now."

Jia Dongxu smiled and said, "Opportunities can be created. I have a friend who is recruiting people. I think you can give it a try."

Wang Qiang was moved, but still a little hesitant: "But I am doing well in the factory now. If I leave suddenly, what will my leaders and colleagues think?"

Jia Dongxu nodded in understanding: "I understand this. However, you have to consider your own future and not always take other people's opinions into consideration. You have to believe in your own abilities and dare to try new challenges."

Wang Qiang was silent. He knew that what Jia Dongxu said made sense, but it was not easy to take this step.

"I'll think about it," Wang Qiang said finally. "Thank you, Dongxu."

The two drank a few more glasses of wine and talked a lot. Back home, Wang Qiang lay on the bed, thinking about Jia Dongxu's words in his mind. He knew that he couldn't stay where he was and had to make longer-term plans for the future. Wang Qiang came to the factory and continued to work hard. He didn't make a decision immediately, but thought about how to do better in his current position and pave the way for the future.

During a break, Wang Qiang and several colleagues were chatting in the lounge. Liu Guangfu asked, "Qiangzi, I heard that the factory is going to promote you. Is that true?"

Wang Qiang smiled and said, "That's not true. It's just spread by everyone."

Liu Guangfu shook his head: "No, I heard from the leader that you are so capable, and you will have greater development sooner or later."

Wang Qiang said modestly: "Thank you for your support. I will continue to work hard."

As he was talking, Director Wang came in, saw Wang Qiang, and said with a smile: "Qiangzi, come here, I have something to talk to you about."

Wang Qiang quickly stood up and followed Director Wang to the office. Director Wang motioned him to sit down and handed him a document: "Qiangzi, this is a recent project plan. I think you can take charge of it."

Wang Qiang took the document, looked at it carefully, and was excited: "Director, are you confident in handing over such an important project to me?"

Director Wang smiled and said, "Of course I'm relieved. You've been performing well. This is a test of our trust in you."

Wang Qiang nodded heavily: "Thank you, Director. I will do my best to complete the task!"

Coming out of the office, Wang Qiang was in high spirits, feeling that his efforts had finally been recognized. He was determined to do a good job on this project and lay a more solid foundation for the future.

A few days later, Wang Qiang's performance in the factory was getting better and better, the project was progressing smoothly, and everyone's evaluation of him was getting higher and higher. One day, Wang Qiang was busy when he suddenly received a call from Jia Dongxu.

"Qiangzi, do you have time? Come out and chat." Jia Dongxu's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Wang Qiang agreed, put down his work, and walked out of the factory. Jia Dongxu was already waiting in the coffee shop on the corner.

"Dongxu, is there anything wrong?" Wang Qiang asked as he sat down.

Jia Dongxu handed him a cup of coffee and said with a smile: "Qiangzi, I know you are doing well in the factory, but how have you considered it?"

Wang Qiang's mind moved: "Is that the company you mentioned?" "Yes, my friend's company has an important project recently and needs to recruit some capable people. I think you are a good fit." He asked: "What is the specific project?"
