Chapter 3: I am your father

Lu Wenhao and Li Zhiqiang were walking on the road outside the workshop. Li Zhiqiang looked at Lu Wenhao with gratitude: "Thank you, Vice President Lu!"

Lu Wenhao waved his hand: "What do you thank me? I just don't like Luo Shiming. I've wanted to beat him up long ago..."

"I'm not stupid, I know, you're helping me."

"You don't have to be afraid of him. The unhealthy trends and evil spirits in the factory are all caused by people like Luo Shiming."

Lu Wenhao asked with concern: "By the way, your sister-in-law's illness... how is it now?"

Li Zhiqiang's wife suffers from cirrhosis, which is a chronic disease and is very costly. In the era without universal medical care, as a family member of a state-owned enterprise employee, some of it can be reimbursed. However, he needs to pay the medical expenses in advance. Li Zhiqiang's family was not rich, and when he encountered this disease, it was naturally worse.

In later generations, Li Zhiqiang's wife urgently needed money because of her illness, so Li Zhiqiang had to find another way out. Later, he joined Southern Hi-Tech and became the technical director of Southern Hi-Tech. After Southern Hi-Tech went bankrupt, he joined Oppo and became the R&D director, leading Oppo to become a world-renowned mobile phone giant.

In fact, it proved that Li Zhiqiang was very good at abilities. Lu Wenhao decided to provide help when he could help him, and this talent must be mentioned to be chopped into his own bowl.

Lu Wenhao opened the briefcase and took out a stack of money from it. He didn't count it and handed it to Li Zhiqiang.

When Li Zhiqiang saw this scene, his eyes turned red. Since his wife became ill, he has borrowed money everywhere, and relatives and friends have found various reasons to shirk him, almost desperate.

His wife Feng Wanru felt sorry for him and only took some painkillers.

Li Zhiqiang shook his head and said, "Vice General Lu, I heard that you are getting married soon and you need money!"

"No need to get married for the time being!" Lu Wenhao smiled: "Just get married, it's important to help you!"

Notice - At around 7:50 am on July 1, 1997, Comrade Luo Shiming, a welder from the Huaguan No. 1 Project Department of Guangming Machinery Factory, was angry with the project department's punishment for violating labor discipline. He had an argument with Lu Wenhao, deputy commander-in-chief of the project department and Li Zhiqiang, the technical section chief of the project department, and then had a physical conflict, causing extremely bad impact.

In order to strictly enforce factory rules and regulations, after research by the factory leadership team, the following punishments were made in accordance with Article 5, Paragraph 2 of the "Internal Security Management Regulations".

Luo Shiming fined 200 yuan.

Luo Shiming was an "uncivilized employee of the month". Given that the comrade was already an uncivilized employee in July, it was postponed to August.

Li Zhiqiang, the technical work section chief, and Lu Wenhao, deputy commander-in-chief, each of them was 50 yuan.

Huaguan No. 1 Project Department is listed as an uncivilized unit, and the civilized award of the unit is deducted from 50 yuan.

Luo Shiming was punished once for serious demerit.

The above assessment will be reflected in the salary in July.

All branches and workshops should take this matter as a warning and strengthen the management of employees' labor discipline. If similar incidents occur again, they will be dealt with strictly and severely.

Guangming Machinery Factory

When Li Jianmin looked at the notice, his face turned pale. Luo Shiming was his apprentice, the only apprentice who is currently an intermediate worker. Although the technical promotion is mainly based on the technology, the performance in the factory will also be included in the assessment scope.

Li Jianmin has always been strong. As one of the few eighth-level workers in the factory, he really can't afford to lose this person.

In the empty factory, there is a huge welding robot (Huaguan No. 1). Cables and wires of three colors, red, green and black, are as dense and messy as spider webs.

The welding robot's mechanical components such as waist rotation, big arms rotation, forearm rotation, wrist rotation, wrist swing, wrist twist appear very rough, and the printed circuit board, crt monitor, and key boxes are all exposed in the air.

Luo Shiming looked resentful. As he walked, he took out a pack of cheap cigarettes from his work clothes pocket, took out one and held it in his mouth.

He leaned on the rotating arm of the welding machine and took out a match from his pants pocket.

He was about to light a match.

One of them frowned when he saw this scene: "Luo Shiming, are you still smoking here?"

Luo Shiming said angrily: "You have to care!"

"I don't bother with you, I have to pull it out and smoke it."

Luo Shiming said angrily: "My salary has been deducted anyway, so I'm afraid they will bite me..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Jianmin walked over with a bad look on his face, raised his arm, and slapped Luo Shiming in the back of the head.

——Ba.

Luo Shiming was staggered and he was furious: "Who the fuck hit me?"

Luo Shiming turned around and looked at Li Jianmin with a bad look on his face.

Luo Shiming's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly explained: "Master, I..."

Li Jianmin's eyes were full of coldness: "I can't be your Luo Shiming's master, and I don't dare to have an apprentice like you."

After Li Jianmin finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the door.

Luo Shiming looked panicked: "Master, listen to me."

Li Jianmin walked in front with his hands behind his back.

Luo Shiming followed closely: "Master, listen to my explanation."

Li Jianmin ignored Luo Shiming and walked forward with great strides.

Luo Shiming took two steps at once, quickly ran to Li Jianmin, and reached out to stop Li Jianmin: "Master, that's really not my fault!"

Li Jianmin had a dark face: "Get out."

Luo Shiming made awkwardly and stepped aside.

Luo Shiming turned around and saw Lu Wenhao, with resentful gazes bursting out from his eyes.

However, Lu Wenhao didn't care about Luo Shiming at all. This guy was even worse than himself in his later generations. After the Guangming Factory went bankrupt, he made a living by taking goods from three-way to three-way to get goods. However, there were too many laid-off workers at that time, and the competition for the three-way to get a big meal, so he had no meal. Later, after being over forty, he was still a bachelor.

However, to Lu Wenhao's surprise, he waited absent-mindedly for a whole day, and Fu Mingze did not come to him to talk to him about the position of commander-in-chief of the project department.

Moreover, the commander-in-chief Zhou Jingxian asked his son to come over to handle the medical withdrawal procedures for him, and retired from then on.

After finally getting off work, Lu Wenhao rode his bicycle to the department store and bought an electric rice cooker. Now he doesn't have to consider the issue of getting married, but instead lives much more comfortable.

Even if he lent Li Zhiqiang ten thousand yuan, he still has a few thousand yuan. In this era, he is still a rich man.

Lu Wenhao was holding a box of a Supor brand rice cooker with his briefcase on it. He pushed open the door with one hand and entered the living room. There was an Eight Immortals table with two bamboo-shelled thermos bottles on it.

There are dozens of certificates posted on the wall of the living room, including the "Three Good Students", "Outstanding Student Union Cadre", "Hua Luogeng Golden Cup", "First Prize of the National Mathematics League" and other certificates.

Lu Wenhao put the rice cooker box and briefcase on the Eight Immortals table.

Lu Wenhao's mother Xu Rong came out of the kitchen with a spatula in her hand. She saw Lu Wenhao asking curiously: "Wenhao, this is..."

"This is what I told you, the pot that can cook automatically!"

As he said that, Lu Wenhao used the key to cut the packaging box and opened the packaging plastic film.

Xu Rong looked puzzled: "When did you tell me?"

While taking out the rice cooker from the packaging box, Lu Wenhao said, "Isn't it last month? You said that cooking is hot and tiring, and it's even more tiring than going to work."

"I didn't ask you to buy an automatic rice cooker, it's worth a lot of money, right?" Xu Rong seemed to think of something and hurriedly walked into the room: "You spent money indiscriminately, and this money is left for you to get married!"

"I'm not getting married!"

Lu Wenhao took the power cord and connected it to the rice cooker. He took out the inner pot and walked into the kitchen. While brushing the pot, he said, "Mom, let's try it out."

"Why not get married!"

Xu Rong looked puzzled.

Lu Wenhao smiled but did not explain. In fact, Xu Rong and Song Jialin had a bad relationship. In later generations, Lu Wenhao did not understand Song Jialin, and always took it for granted that Xu Rong was an old feudal and was incompatible with Song Jialin, a woman of the new era.

However, Xu Rong also shed tears because of Song Jialin, and Song Jialin is not a good wife and mother.

Xu Rong looked at Lu Wenhao without saying anything, and didn't care.

In fact, she has always been dissatisfied with Song Jialin, not because of her appearance, but because of Song Jialin's reputation. There are many legends about her. The old women in state-owned enterprises are famous for gossip, but Lu Wenhao doesn't marry Song Jialin. He loves Song Jialin in front of Lu Wenhao, but she can't say Song Jialin a word.

Xu Rong had no choice. Now that Lu Wenhao is enlightened, she is very happy. She took the inner pot and looked excited: "How to use this?"

"Pull the rice into the inner pot, add water, and the water will flood the rice with a slap."

Xu Rong quickly washed rice, then put it into the rice cooker and added water.

Lu Wenhao took the inner pot and introduced to Xu Rong: "Mom, it's actually very simple. First put the inner pot into the outer pot, cover the lid, plug in the power supply, and press the switch."

Xu Rong was stunned: "That's all, wait for dinner?"

Lu Wenhao pointed to the indicator light on the rice cooker and introduced: "This is a heat preservation function. If you steam the rice, you can keep it warm all the time if you don't want to eat it."

The sound of the door opening.

Lu Wenhao and Xu Rong looked towards the door, and Lu Zhenhua walked in with a briefcase.

Lu Zhenhua stared at Lu Wenhao with a stern look.

Lu Wenhao ignored Lu Zhenhua and turned to Xu Rong.

Xu Rong moved a small stool and sat down and looked at the rice cooker.

Lu Wenhao looked at Xu Rong in confusion: "What are you doing?"

Xu Rong smiled: "I'm watching how it cooks automatically."

Lu Wenhao smiled and said, "It will take twenty minutes, you will do this."

Lu Zhenhua put his briefcase heavily on the table: "Where did it come from?"

Xu Rong said angrily: "Anyway, if you don't steal or rob, what's wrong with you?"
