After Transmigrating into a Cannon Fodder Character in the 1980s, I Trash Them All - Chapter 5
Publicity Department’s General Meeting
“Alright!” Zhu Lin gritted her teeth. “Let’s do it!”
“That’s great.” Su Hanyan had already asked around. If they wanted to get into Ye University or a correspondence college, they would have to work full-time, possess a high-school diploma, and have worked for more than five years.
By next year’s exam, she would have been working at the factory for exactly five years.
Hence, this job was still important to her and was why she had refused to give it up no matter what.
“Let’s go register together when it’s time,” Zhu Lin said excitedly.
“Sure!” Su Hanyan agreed. If she wanted to sign up, she would have to wait until next year. For this year, she would borrow books to prepare.
…
The next morning, Su Hanyan went to the publicity department and filled out a form for accommodation in the factory’s dormitory for singles.
After she filled in the form, she brought it to the logistics department.
When she returned, she saw that the chief, Niu Hongxia, was having a meeting with two employees from the publicity department. The three were gathered around the coal stove in a room and were discussing new orders.
When the chief saw her, she waved her over, gesturing for her to hurry. “Hanyan, quickly bring your notebook. A new job came in, so I’m here to assign tasks.”
“Okay.” She quickly walked in, picked up her notebook, and pulled a chair over.
It was snowing outside, but it was warm inside. The coal ball stove was burning brightly, and there was a pot of hot water sitting on it.
While Su Hanyan listened to the chief, her frozen hands hovered around the stove to warm herself up.
“Isn’t New Year just around the corner? The factory bosses said that the profits this year are quite good, so they wanted to organize a gala to boost the factory workers’ morale on New Year! The preparation will be up to us. There’s still a month to prepare; I hope that you guys will work hard this month. Go to the various workshops and do a tabulation. The remaining time will be spent preparing for the gala.”
“Chief, don’t worry; we promise to complete the task!” Lin Qingyu got up from her stool and stood upright, loudly declaring with her chest puffed out.
Her voice was extremely loud, giving Su Hanyan a fright.
“Good! Very good!” Niu Hongxia nodded in satisfaction. She then looked at Su Hanyan and the man, who was called Jiang Kuo. “What about you guys?”
“I’m confident!” He immediately got up and expressed his stance.
“Chief, I have a question.” Rather than expressing her confidence, Su Hanyan was more concerned about the current difficulties. “There are only five of us in our department. Sister Zhang is on her maternity leave, while Sister Qi is sick and is presently confined in a hospital. I don’t think that we have enough manpower!”
“We can borrow manpower from the union.”
“Okay.”
“Another thing.” She pressed on. “Will we be continuing with the blackboard reports?”
“Yes, of course! We have to take this task seriously, but we can’t neglect our real duties!”
“Understood!”
After Niu Hongxia finished speaking, she closed her notebook and stuffed the fountain pen into her chest pocket. Standing up, she said, “Work hard. Once this gala is done, the factory will reward our department; we’ll also get a year-end bonus!”
“Yes, chief!” Everyone cried in unison.
“Alright, get back to work!”
Once the chief left, Lin Qingyu took the initiative to rope in Jiang Kuo. The two of them discussed for a long time about what kind of program to prepare, how to prepare it, and which workshops they should interview.
After discussing, the two picked up their notebooks and left.
