The Strongest Life Reborn

Chang Xixi is a Shuchuan native. He came to Shanghai Maritime University from 1958 and has been unknowingly for 21 years.

He also changed from a lush young man to a middle-aged man who is almost forty.

His 16 years of working time at the Shanghai Haihai Fine Art Film Studio has made him grow very fast. Now he has become a secondary art designer. According to the leaders of the factory, he can be promoted to two or three years at most. As a first-class art designer, this is the pinnacle of art talents, and wages and salaries will increase a lot by then.

However, Chang Xixi also has some problems, which is the education of his two children.

He married very early, and married when he graduated from university. His wife is also an employee of the art factory. He works in the logistics department. The eldest son of the two is already 15 years old, and the youngest daughter is almost 10 years old.

Children are now studying in elementary school for five years, junior high school for two years, and high school for two years.

It is not until about 82-83 that the country will begin education reform, and gradually change to three-year junior high school and high school.

Seeing that his son will graduate from high school this year, he will take the college entrance examination in July. Chang Xixi is worried about his son's average academic performance. If his grades are not good, it will be difficult to rely on college. Once he cannot attend college, The country will not be assigned a good job. If you go to the factory to work as a worker, it is really not good.

If you can be admitted to Fudan University, no matter what you study, it will be easy to allocate.

Huhai has always been a place where Chinese thinking is very open. Since the college entrance examination began in 1977, there are so many people who want to take the college entrance examination and rely on college. How can you ensure that you can enter the university or increase the entrance exam? University opportunities?

Very simple!

Would n’t it be good to find knowledgeable teachers to tutor?

Let them teach more knowledge and more targeted training for the exam, then the test score will naturally improve!

Last year's first batch of college entrance examination failed to catch up, but some people did this last summer's college entrance examination. After tutoring and without tutoring, the scores are really not the same!

Obviously, teachers who seek guidance from teachers have better grades and better university.

So from this year on, more people will go to teachers for guidance and try to get into good universities.

So many people go to teachers for guidance, and the price of the tutoring is naturally higher. The ordinary tutoring costs more than 100 yuan a month. The best group of teachers has a monthly tuition fee of up to More than 300 pieces are really jaw-dropping!

Chang Xixi is the deputy director of the Ministry of Art and Technology. The rank has been increased. Various salary subsidies are added together, totaling 75 yuan.

I do n’t eat or drink for a year, but it ’s just a medium enough teacher to help my son to tutor for more than 4 months.

Even with his wife's salary, the two have only had more than 2,000 deposits so far. The salary was lower in previous years, and the two children used more money. They can save so much money, which is because they are very saving.

If you want to make up for the tuition, the tuition will start at the latest in April. Think about how to spend about 600 yuan in three months, and use one-third of your savings. Chang Xixi feels distressed.

Apart from her son and daughter, it is said that in her elementary school, many capable parents have asked the teacher to tutor piano, guzheng, dancing, etc. in order to be better than others and run a few times on the starting line. step.

The daughter saw that other classmates were tutoring this one, and she came back and eagerly said that she wanted to learn to dance.

But my wife went to ask about it. The cheapest dance class is 20 yuan a month, and it is only a large class of more than 20 people. If you want to go to a small class of three or five people, the price must be doubled.

If you want to make your daughter a talent, you must go to school every month, at least until her university.

Especially before the exam, the cost of specialized training and teaching will be more expensive, that is, it will not be available for 20 and 40, at least it is similar to the piano, and it costs 100 yuan.

This has to be the case where nothing has gone up in price, and if various prices rise in a few years, 100 yuan is not enough.

Thinking of such a large amount of continuous expenditure, Chang Xixi also felt a headache.

Although he does not love money, this is also the first time in his life that he feels that he is making too little money.

For this reason, Chang Xixi didn't sleep well during this time, and his wife was very anxious in her eyes.

But today, Chang Xixi had something to do with overtime and went home around 9 o'clock. When he came home, his wife Sun Ping looked at himself with a eager look, making him feel a little puzzled. "What's wrong? Is there something good?"

After his wife brought him the hot meal, he said, "This ... I don't know what to say to you."

"Speak, what can you say?" Chang Xixi looked at the big couch and the little daughter who had fallen asleep in the curtain beside them, and said with a smile.

The housing area of ​​the family is more than 30 square meters. The cooking is on the outside corridor. The toilet is also shared on one floor. Then the house is divided into two rooms and a small dining room. On weekdays, the children can only be in the dining room. Write homework in the corner.

The room is not big, but the family of four is very cozy.

Although sometimes Chang Xixi is thinking about what to do when children grow up, especially his daughter, but now there is a little free time before that time, so he will not think about it temporarily.

Because ah, you think too much and it's useless. No matter how big the house is, there's nothing in the factory.

"Did you hear that? Here comes a deputy general manager of a Xiangjiang company. I want to come to our factory to find someone to work in Xiangjiang. It seems to be drawing cartoons and animating!" Sun Ping lowered his voice.

"Oh, that's right?" Chang Zhenxi smiled. "What animation does Xiangjiang do? I'm afraid it's a joke? But they have comics. I've seen some of them. It's not good."

The people of Huhai Fine Art Film Studio often go abroad to participate in exhibitions of works. Chang Xixi has also been there, and he has also been to Xiangjiang once.

In addition, Xiang Jiang ’s comic works, as long as they go, they will buy a few books to come back to study. For example, Xiang Jiang ’s famous "Dragon and Tiger Gate" and "Li Xiaolong" have been read by Chang Xixi.

Chang Xixi doesn't think the meaning of these Xiangjiang cartoons is a very vulgar story with too little connotation.

"You care about how well they are doing!" Sun Ping said, "I heard that as long as you go to the Xiangjiang side, you will have at least 1,000 yuan of income in a month! According to your ability, no matter how much you can't get 2000 yuan a month. ? "

"So high?" Chang Zhenxi was surprised.

"Well, I heard that it was so high!"

"Don't you encounter a scammer?" Chang Jianxi shook his head again and again. "In Xiangjiang, the people there counted for one month, that is, four or five hundred yuan in income. Looking for someone in the past, they will be offered a 1,000 price? What company is so bold? If you encounter a scammer and get scammed, it is a big loss! "

"That's not it!" Sun Ping shook his head. "The one at Xu's house, I saw that he had just gone with a friend after work, so he went to meet with the deputy general manager of Xiangjiang. Everyone lives in an international hotel. Please have tea or dinner over there. Do you think there is still leave? How much does it cost? "

"I don't know, let them go." Chang Huixi ate and smiled.

He was not interested in these vain things. He was used to it at Huhai Fine Art Film Studio and never thought about changing places.

The two were talking, and suddenly they heard a noise outside.

Listening to the louder voice, Sun Ping frowned a little and opened the door and walked out.

As a result, after waiting for a while, when Sun Ping came back, Chang Xixi, who had already finished her meal, saw that her face was excited and lost.

This time, without waiting for Chang Zhenxi to ask, Sun Ping had already said: "Old Ren, Ren Yuanzhong also went to the International Hotel, he has not agreed to work in Xiangjiang, but they sent a 12-inch color TV directly Give it to him, now his family is playing TV! "

"what?"

Chang Zhenxi was surprised.

Ren Yuanzhong is a third-level art designer. He is seven or eight years older than him. He is ambitious and uncreative. However, his painting skills are still profound, and he is also an apprentice of Wan Sanye.

"He wanted to go!" Chang Huixi looked awkward.

He is not a fool. If Ren Yuanzhong didn't say anything, why should someone give him a TV set?

"What do you care about others?" Sun Ping gave him a white look. "With the old family's situation, you can't let him try to find money, can there be a solution?"

Chang Xixi only woke up.

Ren Yuanzhong is 46 years old this year. He has only one son and is 23 years old. He is now assigned to work in Shanghai Haihai No. 5 Factory.

His son had talked to a friend the year before and wanted to get married, but the woman's family looked down on this young man with a salary of only 50 yuan, and insisted that his family give 3000 yuan as a gift, plus a refrigerator, TV and washing machine.

Such a set would add up to at least five or six thousand. With the salary of an old couple, where could save so much money?

Seeing that this good thing is about to turn yellow, Xiao Ren became depressed. She secretly took sleeping pills last month. If it weren't for him. If his mother came back from work early, the child would not be saved.

In order to fear that he would go to extremes, the old couple really did not think of a lesser way, and proposed to give the woman 2000 yuan first, and give it within the remaining three years, but the family of the family strongly disagreed and even refused to continue their relationship.

The old wife's wife has gone crazy in the past two days, and the old man's working state has also been affected. They are thinking about how to borrow money.

Unexpectedly, today, someone from such a Xiangjiang cultural company suddenly came to the door and offered such generous treatment. Do you say that the old man is not emotional?

For the sake of his son's happiness, or even life and death, how could the old man not think about it?

After talking for a while, Chang Xixi didn't speak again.

...

Because of the overtime work last night, Chang Xixi took a break from work the next day before going to work. After eating lunch early, he went out and cut his head, and then walked slowly back to the factory to work.

As a result, as soon as I arrived at the office, I saw a group of colleagues who were in a state of excitement and panic, but there was a hint of longing again.

Looking back all the way, it seems that many people are in this state, and Chang Xixi feels a little inexplicable.

"What's wrong, old Qin?" Chang Xixi asked an old friend.

Qin Yongyi is a veteran of their art department. He is one year older than Chang Zhenxi. They both graduated from a school, and they have a good relationship.

"Don't you know?" Qin Yongyi said: "The veteran filed an application with the factory today, and he quit his job."

"What !? Resign !?" Chang Huixi took a breath, "Is he crazy?"

"The old man is not crazy, he really sent it!" Qin Yongyi said, "When he went to work at noon, a small truck arrived downstairs and moved a Soviet Minsk refrigerator, a Hitachi ’s TV, a Panasonic washing machine, and then two Phoenix bicycles, one for men and one for women ... that ’s an eye-catching one! Hey, are n’t you just upstairs in his house? did not see it?"

"What is such an expensive thing?" Chang Zhenxi suddenly remembered what happened last night, and suddenly understood, "He is going to Xiangjiang?"

"Yup!"

Qin Yongyi said, "Unexpectedly, he has 46 for the old man, and dare to go to Xiangjiang. I heard from people over there, he signed a five-year work contract, Xiangjiang people are popular this, but one It ’s very clear. He went there, all inclusive board and lodging, in addition to wages, and subsidies, can also have a month holiday in one year. The salary seems to be 2,000 yuan! After such a year, the minimum is also 30,000! With a return of RMB 150,000, that would scare the dead! "

"So high!"

Chang Zhenxi couldn't help but sigh.

"Seeing him like this, I want to go." Qin Yongyi suddenly sighed.

"What are you talking nonsense about?" Chang Huixi frowned.

"The children of Lao Ren's family are going to get married, and my son is going to re-enter the university. Where does this cost no money?" Qin Yongyi said, "Even if he doesn't go to university, if I can make more money for him, he will be safe in the future. Life should be okay ... Look, now, which daughter does n’t want so many wedding gifts? "

Hearing about the university entrance exam, Chang Xixi suddenly remembered his son, and he remembered his daughter again. All his thoughts turned into a sigh, and he didn't even think about Qin Yongyi.

The news that the old resignation did not work soon spread to the entire Huhai Fine Arts Film Studio ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ watching Xiao Ren Huan happily brought his girlfriend home and moved these appliances to the mother-in-law's house , And then the young couple went out on bicycles, and many people had red eyes.

In particular, I heard Xiao Ren inadvertently revealed that the veteran signed a work contract and received 10,000 yuan in contract money. After giving away in vain, many young people who entered the factory soon went directly to the international hotel.

In just three days, seven employees were dug in the Shanghai Haihai Fine Arts Film Studio, including artists and animation producers, and they are all elites in the factory. Two of them are still the most optimistic. The Seeds!

What happened with this thing was that the employees' homes were all equipped with various electrical appliances.

Not only refrigerators, TV sets and washing machines are standard, but sewing machines, watches and cameras can be seen in their homes.

The most exaggerated thing is that there is a Japanese piano in a person ’s house, which makes the girls squeezed their heads and want to see and touch-although there are in the factory, it has been a long time. And it's for voiceover only, but it's not for these little girls to touch and play.

The group of people who resigned to Xiangjiang didn't feel any loss and uneasiness, but instead laughed.

Everyone also learned from their mouths that they made a telephone call to the government department of Xiangjiang from the post office to confirm the existence of this company.

Since others are regular companies, what else are you afraid of? Where is not work? What's more, there are so many people together, everyone works together, even if you go to a place where you are not familiar with, are you not so afraid?

Seeing their family situation change at once, listening to what they said, some people who were a little hesitant at first, the balance in their hearts was a bit off.

(There is one more change later.) (To be continued.)
