Chapter 1379 1381 [Propaganda Officer]
"Su Meng is so thin-skinned. If you ask her to promise this kind of thing in front of the whole courtyard, how can she say it?" Chunming said in embarrassment for Su Meng.
Su Meng is a very face-saving person. Let her agree to have a date with him for the sake of work, she will never do it.
"She has a thin skin, so who has a thick skin? My dad has to be shameless when he asks someone to do something." Xiang Nan said speechlessly, "Besides, she doesn't even dare to date you publicly. So what will you two do in the future, will you always be an underground party?
Chunming, this is actually a good opportunity, why don't you just see how she treats you. If she really loves you, why is she afraid of losing face?
Besides, what’s wrong with you now, you have a formal job and you can earn extra money. In our alley, besides me, who else is more capable than you, why should she lose face?
If she takes face more seriously than you, it means that she doesn't love you at all, and may leave you at any time because of face. Then why are you helping her with all the fuss? "
In the play, Su Meng is a person who takes face more seriously than Han Chunming.
In 1978, Han Chunming felt disgraced and disgraced, so he didn't talk to him for three years; in 1982, Chunming agreed to drive her father to the hospital, but he forgot about it in a hurry. Su Meng felt that she had lost face and did not talk to him for another three years; in 1992, Chunming took the initiative to give Su Meng a project, making her feel that Chunming deliberately slapped her in the face, and then ignored him for five years...
For a woman like this, whoever gets it is really unlucky. Xiang Nan and Chunming were brothers after all, and he didn't want to watch him jump into the fire pit.
Chunming heard what Xiang Nan said, and felt that it made sense.
If Su Meng doesn't even dare to express her opinion, how can she guarantee that she can still be with him after entering the Children's Palace? There is no guarantee that the Su family will not come out to object.
You know, Grandma Su, Teacher Su, and Teacher Liu have always looked down on him.
"Okay, I'll discuss it with Su Meng later." Chunming nodded, and then left without mentioning "The Red Detachment of Women".
…
Turning around, Xiang Nan and Cai Xiaoli met at the entrance of the People's Art Theater, and then went in to enjoy "The Red Detachment of Women".
Xiang Nan has watched too many movies and dramas, but he really has no interest in "The Red Detachment of Women".
However, it was the first time for Cai Xiaoli to watch it. He watched it with gusto, without taking his eyes off it. Until the end of the show, I was still excited.
"Jianjun, today's performance is really good~" Cai Xiaoli smiled, "Look at how well they dance, it's really good~ It's a pity that my family was poor when I was young, and I didn't have the conditions to learn to dance."
"Well, it's okay, you're fine now. I don't think those ballet dancers are as beautiful as you." Xiang Nan laughed.
"You know how to coax me~" Cai Xiaoli shyly said.
"Where, I'm telling the truth~" Xiang Nan laughed.
To be honest, he didn't come in vain today.
Regarding the grand performance of "Red Detachment of Women" tonight, he saw the masses' desire for spiritual food. Therefore, the cultural industry has great potential.
…
On the third day of junior high school, Xiang Nan finished his vacation and returned to work in the factory.
A few days later, "People's Literature" launched the second issue after its resumption, and Xiang Nan's poem, "The sun is the reddest, the chairman is the closest" was printed on it.
The title says the introduction of the author, Cheng Jianjun, a young worker of Yili Food Factory.
This will make him a hit.
The factory leaders paid great attention to it, and specially invited Xiang Nan to the office.
"Xiao Cheng, you are really a talent. You can write poems, and they are even included in "People's Literature". Good job, you will give our factory credit and show your face." The factory manager laughed.
"Thank you, Director, for your compliment." Xiang Nan nodded.
"Well, do you usually like to create?" The factory director asked again.
"Okay, okay, that's how it should be." The factory manager nodded and smiled, "Since you like to create so much, it would be a waste of talent in the workshop.
How about this, from tomorrow onwards, you will fall into the propaganda department of our factory and become a propaganda officer, just to make use of your strengths. "
Xiang Nan was naturally happy when he heard it.
Work in the Propaganda Department is easy, with a cup of tea, a cigarette, and a newspaper for half a day, which is more enjoyable than in the workshop.
And the publicity officer is equivalent to a clerk, and the salary is 45 yuan.
In comparison, Chunming and others had only raised their monthly wages to 19 yuan in the second year after they entered the factory, which was a big difference.
In addition, after going to the Publicity Department, he can justifiably engage in creation. After the manuscript fee system is restored next year, he will be able to make money by selling articles.
…
When Chunming and Cai Xiaoli heard about it, they were envious.
"Jianjun, you are really good, I am convinced." Chunming said with emotion.
He is also a proud person in his bones, and has always been unwilling to convince others. But Xiang Nan is indeed better than him. He is still doing physical work in the workshop, and Xiang Nan has already gone to promote the science to enjoy leisure.
"Jianjun, you are awesome!" Cai Xiaoli said in admiration.
There are so many students in No. 3 Middle School, excluding those cadres' children, Xiang Nan's performance is considered the best.
Even compared with those cadres’ children, except for those who are particularly outstanding and who enter the government office or the army as soon as they return to the city, Xiang Nan is considered to be relatively outstanding.
All the workers in the workshop cast envious eyes when they heard about this.
Although Xiang Nan spoke modestly, he was actually very happy in his heart.
"Hey, by the way, Chunming, have you told Su Meng?" Xiang Nan asked.
Chunming smiled awkwardly.
He told Su Meng yesterday. But after Su Meng heard about it, she said that he was trying to take advantage of the fire. Not really helping her at all, just chasing her.
So she scolded Chunming for being a hypocrite and a villain, kicking and beating him and kicked him out.
Xiang Nan thought it was funny when he heard about it.
Su Meng, what is this called!
She asked Chunming to help her unconditionally, so why didn't she marry Chunming unconditionally? She thought Chunming was not sincere, so how could she have sincerity?
What a serious double standard!
"Chunming, according to me, just ignore her." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "We are all adults, isn't the exchange of benefits normal? We all eat whole grains, who can drink wind and dew?
You help her find a job, and she agrees to associate with you, isn't that reasonable? How can it be called sincerity, and the dedication without death and regret is called sincerity?
In my opinion, this is not sincere, this is stupid! She's just coaxing you to play, she doesn't pay anything, and asks you to do things for her. It's more ruthless than a capitalist, Xiaoli, don't you think so? "
Cai Xiaoli nodded, "Chunming, Jianjun is right, Su Meng has a problem, you should think about it."
She also looked down on Su Meng. Chunming was neither her boyfriend nor her husband, so why would he help her with things regardless of pay.
She relied on the fact that Chunming liked her, that's why she oppressed him like this. Really mean!
"Oh, don't talk about her like that. I know that Su Meng is a good girl." Chunming still insisted.
Seeing this, Xiang Nan couldn't say anything more.
