Siheyuan: I am Yi Zhonghai's biological son

The commendation meeting was held after New Year's Day in the Great Hall of the People. Advanced workers from all over the country rushed to Beijing in these few days. Walking on the streets of Beijing, watching the rapid changes in the country, their faces were filled with bright smiles.

Many of them were visiting the capital for the first time. In those days when travel was difficult, being able to visit the capital was a lifetime honor. Many people had never even left their county towns in their entire lives, so being able to visit the capital and meet the top leaders was a lifetime honor.

Yi Ping'an specially found a new set of clothes, took a bath and had his hair cut, dressed himself up as a spirited young man, and drove to the Great Hall with Wang Kaixuan.

This was the first time Yi Ping'an had been to this place in his two lives. He asked Wang Kaixuan to borrow a camera so that he could take a photo of himself in front of the entrance of the Great Hall as a souvenir. When he got old, his grandson would be able to brag about this photo.

Yi Pingan entered the hall with other advanced workers with the conference pass. The staff guided them along the way. All the advanced workers were excited and overwhelmed.

I was excited because I had the opportunity to come to this place, but I was overwhelmed because it was so huge and full of solemnity, and I was afraid that I would offend such solemnity.

Following the large group into the auditorium, Yi Ping'an didn't know which hall this was. He had only seen it on TV in his previous life. Yi Ping'an himself could imagine it. There was innocence in his eyes. He followed the staff and sat in his seat, which was quite close to the front.

The seats in the back were filled up one after another. Everyone sat down quietly. No one dared to look around, let alone speak. It was like elementary school students waiting for the teacher to come to class.

Just when Yi Ping'an began to think about when the leaders would arrive, he heard a commotion at the back. Everyone looked back at the same time. The big leader, the sir, the commander-in-chief, and many people whom Yi Ping'an had only seen in textbooks and paintings, walked into the venue together.

Everyone stood up and applauded, with big smiles on their faces. The leaders waved to the people on both sides and signaled everyone to sit down, but no one sat down. Many people shed tears of excitement.

Yi Ping'an was no exception. He couldn't remember how many times he had cried. He cried every time he saw someone. He felt that he was quite useless, but he also felt that this was normal. No one could remain calm.

After the leaders took their seats in the front row, the host of the meeting said on the stage: "Please take your seats. The commendation meeting will begin soon."

The participants in the meeting then sat down. After the host's opening remarks, the leader gave a speech. He first praised the outstanding contributions made by everyone present, then encouraged everyone to keep up the good work, and finally looked forward to the future.

The speech was very short, and before I could finish my speech, thunderous applause broke out.

The second item of the meeting is commendation. The host will read out the name of each person to be commended and introduce their contributions. After hearing their own name, everyone excitedly walked to the stage under the guidance of the staff.

When it was Yi Ping'an's turn, he was simply introduced with his name and level. Yi Ping'an is now a level three engineer.

All I heard was the host reading on the stage: "Now, please invite advanced worker Comrade Yi Ping'an to come to the stage to accept the award. Comrade Yi Ping'an graduated from Sijiucheng Industrial College, a third-level engineer, young and promising, and has made outstanding contributions to the development of my country's steel industry. Please come on stage!"

It can be said that this was the simplest introduction in the entire venue. There was no work unit, no resume, and no specific introduction to his contributions. Those who knew him at the venue smiled knowingly, while those who didn't know him looked at each other in bewilderment. This introduction was too simple.

But many leaders understand that the simpler something is, the more complicated it is. It seems that this young man is quite capable.

The dean of the Industrial College was also present at the meeting, but his seat was at the back, so Yi Ping'an didn't know about him. However, the dean knew he was there, and he clapped the loudest. The people next to him looked at him with envy.

They also want such students, but unfortunately there are none.

After Yi Ping'an came on stage, the people below realized that Yi Ping'an was the youngest among the people being honored. Standing among a group of people in their thirties, forties, or even older, and with his tall stature, he stood out from the crowd.

"Now, please welcome the great leader, sir, to present medals and certificates to the people who have been commended this time. Welcome everyone!" As soon as the host finished speaking, thunderous applause broke out.

The big leader and the gentleman came on stage, shook hands with the advanced workers one by one, expressed their cordial consolation, and then distributed the medals and certificates in the staff's tray to each person.

When it was Yi Ping'an's turn, he spoke with that familiar Hunan accent again: "Little boy, we meet again. I am very happy to see you here!"

Yi Ping'an wanted to cry again, but he suppressed it. He choked up and said, "Thank you, leader. I will continue to work hard and contribute to the construction of China. Please rest assured, and please rest assured, my motherland!"

The big boss patted Yi Ping'an on the shoulder and said, "I'm looking forward to your good results!"

After saying that, he took the medal over. Yi Ping'an quickly bent down, and the medal was put around Yi Ping'an's neck. Following behind him was the gentleman.

Yi Ping'an would never forget that special accent. The gentleman said to Yi Ping'an, "Comrade Ping'an, we meet again. Don't cry this time. I'm not scary!"

Yi Ping'an smiled with tears in his eyes: "You are very kind, just like a parent."

"Hahaha, that's right. Keep up the good work. I believe our country will be able to achieve the Four Modernizations in this century."

"I also believe that our Chinese nation will definitely achieve great rejuvenation!" Yi Ping'an replied solemnly.

"Revival! That's a good word!" The gentleman patted Yi Ping'an's shoulder vigorously after saying that.

Then he handed the certificate to Yi Ping'an, who bent down and took it with both hands.

Only then did Yi Ping'an raise his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, his eyes following the two leaders.

After the commendation ceremony, all participants took a group photo with the leaders. Due to his height, Yi Ping'an stood at the end of the line. After the photo, they left the venue in an orderly manner.

Yi Ping'an was taken away by the staff.
