Rebirth in 1960, My Industrial Age

Chapter 279 The Power of the Fathers (Subscription Request)
"I was wondering who his father was, but it turns out he's a director."

Zhou Xianyang said facing the wind, pedaling his bicycle very fast. Bai Qingan, who was riding behind him, held Zhou Xianyang tightly to prevent himself from being thrown out because of the fast speed.

Only after Bai Qing'an pinched him a few times did he slow down.

Then Bai Qingan spoke up and said, "His father used to be my grandfather's subordinate. The two families have always been in contact. He had said something similar before, but my grandfather never agreed."

He didn't agree because he was afraid that this would drive Bai Yujie away again. Now Mr. Bai has realized that his daughter's temper is as hard as steel, and his granddaughter is probably the same.

So I can't force him to get married, just hope he doesn't marry an ugly girl.

So the last time Director Dong brought Dong Junkai to Mr. Bai's house, after Bai Qing'an didn't like him, Mr. Bai didn't say a word.

After hearing his father's series of titles just now, the boy's face turned pale; although his father is the director of the Finance Bureau of Sijiu City, but in front of Zhou Fengnian, even if they are not in the same department, he has to respectfully call him leader.

Especially for the substitute members, one more step forward will almost put them halfway into that threshold.

Although Dong Junkai was unwilling, he didn't dare to say anything and finally left with a dark face.

"He is nothing special. He is very arrogant. He has made some achievements thanks to his father. He seems very proud of himself. And my mother said that what he does is not a serious job."

Bai Qingan said to Zhou Xianyang while sitting on the back seat of the bicycle.

However, the more Zhou Xianyang listened, the more he felt that Bai Qing'an was talking about him. For the things he did in school, it seemed that he was relying on the fact that his father was Zhou Fengnian, otherwise it would be difficult to get the dean to speak up.

And he just signed a line contract, and it seems that he doesn’t have any serious career.

Bai Qingan in the back seat also noticed Zhou Xianyang's silence, and couldn't help but pat him and said, "Don't think too much, at least you are helping poor students, unlike him.
I heard from my mother that the boy from the Dong family seemed to be reselling things by relying on official documents. One time, he even went to the machinery factory to do some business and was caught by my mother. "

"A public official. Oh, dealing with things outside the plan, that's pretty badass."

Zhou Xianyang immediately understood what was going on after hearing this. If you use personal connections to make money, you can basically earn several thousand dollars a month without spending a penny.

Unlike the hard-earned money of his two cousins, reselling state-owned materials with approval is a way of damaging the public interest and enriching oneself.

Zhou Xianyang, Zhou Xianzhe and Zhou Xianrui were also capable at the beginning. They borrowed Zhou Fengnian's name to worship the door, and it was easy for them to purchase dozens or hundreds of portable karaoke machines every month.

But if they did that, the three brothers would be beaten to death, and they would still be breathing even if Zhou Fengnian didn't eat.

But doing this kind of thing can indeed make people feel inflated. With thousands or tens of thousands of dollars in your pocket, you can buy whatever you want. How can you not feel inflated?

After thinking for a while, Zhou Xianyang said, "Qing'an, I want to do something too."

Bai Qingan said cautiously: "You want to approve the note too? If you do this, I will definitely tell Uncle Zhou."

"That definitely won't happen, don't make any complaints!"

Zhou Xianyang quickly explained: "I just want to do something. What I did before was just a small thing. Otherwise, I can't show off my identity as a college student when I go to your house."

"Being a college student is already a big deal. My grandfather is the only one in my family who went to college. But if you really want to do something, I support you."

Bai Qingan said.

Zhou Xianyang then continued: "If I get busy with something, I will definitely spend less time looking for you in the future."

"Hmm? Then why don't you stop working?"

Bai Qingan said unhappily, then when Zhou Xianyang stopped talking, he laughed and continued, "Just kidding, if you are too busy to have time, I will go find you. It should be easy to go to your school anyway."

Zhou Xianyang immediately said happily: "It will definitely be easy. When the time comes, you can just say that you are my father's relative and the school will definitely not stop you."

He then sent Bai Qing'an to the ministry compound, watched her go upstairs, and then rode his bike home.

He did not return to the dormitory today, planning to go back to discuss things with his father Zhou Fengnian.

He has thought a lot about his career, but he has not figured out what to do. He just happened to go back and ask tonight.

"Dad, I'm back."

It was already past eight o'clock when he came back. Zhou Xianyang saw that the light in the study was not on, so he went straight to the room where his parents were resting.

After pushing the door open, I saw Zhou Fengnian soaking his feet and reading a book.

So Zhou Xianyang smiled and walked forward and asked, "Dad, is the water cold? I'll add some for you."

Zhou Fengnian immediately stopped him after seeing this: "No, let's talk about the matter first. What bad thing did you do?"

"Look at what you said. I don't do bad things."

"You want money? Go ask your mother."

"Dad, this is filial piety!"

"You can talk about filial piety when I'm old. If you don't tell me now, I won't help you even if I tell you later."

"Don't mention it, I really have something I want you to consult on."

Zhou Xianyang followed the conversation and sat down on the chair next to Zhou Fengnian, then asked: "Dad, what do you think I can do now? I always feel that I am wasting my time in school."

"Ok?"

Zhou Fengnian looked up at his son and said, "I think you are too arrogant. You have only learned a little in school, but you dare to say it is a waste of time.

If you are released now, what can you do? Want to start a business and make money? That's fine, but you only get one chance to go to college at your age, and once you miss it, it's gone forever."

"And what happened to you? Why do you suddenly not want to go to school? If your mother knew..."

Zhou Xianyang's face changed when he heard this, and he quickly said: "Dad, keep your voice down, don't tell my mom, and I didn't say I won't go to school, I just want to do something"

After saying this, Zhou Xianyang felt like he was seen through by Zhou Fengnian's eyes, so he told him about what happened today when he met Dong Junkai.

"A second-generation person from a finance bureau family earns this kind of money"

Zhou Fengnian didn't feel anything after hearing this. He had known about this situation for a long time. In fact, the ingredients and peanuts bought by his eldest brother and two nephews were also unplanned supplies.

It’s just that they all paid enough money, didn’t take advantage of the public, and the money they gave was also deposited into the public account.

Those who issue the slips are simply trying to get something for nothing. They do nothing but take all the money with them and then give some money to the government at random.

This little bit of money was divided among the leaders.

Then, the planned things became unplanned, the factory’s assets became less and less, and a few individuals became richer and richer.

As for Zhou Xianyang, he was probably irritated by these people. Those of them who followed the rules made almost no money, or only very little.

Zhou Xianyang was a little dissatisfied when he saw that someone who didn't follow the rules could make a lot of money, and that the person he was pursuing was Bai Qing'an. How could such a person show off? Why!
"You, you never see the use of learning. Computer is a new industry. Why do I, your father, value this industry so much?"

While wiping his feet, Zhou Fengnian said to Zhou Xianyang, "At the beginning, I let you choose any major, but you chose computer science, and you can't even see the future of this industry."

After wiping his feet, Zhou Fengnian took Zhou Xianyang to the study.

When leaving the main house, I ran into Zhou Yan, who immediately asked, "Xianyang, you came back without telling me, where are you going now?"

Zhou Fengnian said, "He is a little confused about his schoolwork, so I took him to the study room to give him some lessons."

After Zhou Yan nodded, she couldn't help but ask, "Have you eaten yet, Xianyang? Do you want to eat something else? We still have snacks at home, I can give them to you too."

Zhou Xianyang quickly said, "Mom, I've eaten. You go and have a rest. I'm busy with my homework!"

Then he took Zhou Fengnian to pour the foot washing water and walked quickly towards the study.

After entering the study, Zhou Xianyang said impatiently: "Dad, give me some advice."

"There's not much I can do for you. I can only say follow the development. You are a computer major and you know the functions and programs on computers. Recently, I have asked the computer factory to build a government office network server."

Zhou Fengnian told Zhou Xianyang about the plan of Shenzhou Computer Factory, which was to have the government establish websites for various departments and then upload office documents for easy access by higher-level departments.

Simply put, it is the original internal website, which is only open to internal users, but it is convenient for office work.

In the past, you had to run over to check it, but after it is successfully created, you can check it directly, and it can also be considered an alternative archive.

It can be considered half of the Internet. Outsiders cannot read it and it can only be circulated within the government.

Zhou Xianyang had also learned this in school. After understanding it, he scratched his head and said, "Dad, what does this have to do with me? You don't want us students to build a government website, do you?"

Before he finished asking, Zhou Xianyang realized it, but then he shook his head and said, "I don't know how to do it. I haven't learned it myself, how to build it."

"You are really clever, but you can't react to big things at all."

Zhou Fengnian poked Zhou Xianyang's head and continued, "When you were arranging the peanut frying, did you fry it yourself? Your school is not just full of freshmen, what about the juniors and seniors?
If Shenzhou Computer Factory had not been short of technical personnel, I would have let them do these things, and it would have created revenue.”

“Creating revenue?”

"You have to be paid for your work. Even if a website costs one or two thousand, it is still an income. What's more, building a government website, one or two thousand is not expensive."

Zhou Fengnian shook his head and said that the Internet in foreign countries has now developed to institutions and universities, so they are still late.

If it weren't for the crazy subsidies provided by the Shenzhou Computer Factory to ensure that the hardware of most universities and government agencies met the standards, the establishment of the Internet would have been delayed by another ten years.

It doesn't matter if you don't have any skills, but you have to understand what the Internet is. His son doesn't even understand it now, but a freshman certainly didn't learn this, so it's not his fault.

Afterwards, Zhou Fengnian gave his son a good lesson in the study, teaching him the concept and development of the Internet.

By the way, help him improve his skills. It’s okay if he is not good at it, but he must understand it completely.

But it certainly couldn't be finished in one night, after all, there was a lot involved, and the father and son talked until after eleven o'clock.

Zhou Yan called out twice, and the third time she pushed the door open and asked, "Are you two going to chat all night, Fengnian? You're not going to work tomorrow?"

Zhou Xianyang came to his senses after being interrupted and suddenly remembered that he had classes tomorrow. He immediately said, "Oh, I still have classes tomorrow."

"No need to go. Take a few days off and study with me for a few days."

Zhou Fengnian interrupted and said, "I will issue you a certificate tomorrow. Starting from tomorrow, you will go to the Technical Department 3 of Shenzhou Computer Factory in the morning to learn about the technology. In the afternoon, come to me and I will give you a lecture in person."

"But listen carefully, you can only study and don't disturb them. And don't use your status to pressure others. If you do, let me know."

Zhou Xianyang said quickly: "Dad, don't worry, I have never done such a thing. When I was a kid, I was surrounded and beaten by seven or eight people, but I didn't even say your name."

"Okay, then just rest at home today. I'll call Dean Pang tomorrow."

Zhou Fengnian said that apart from arranging work for his family, he rarely prepared anything for them.

The second brother Zhou Jiaan was able to become the workshop director, and the eldest brother Zhou Weitian was also able to become cadres because they were qualified.

The first person who asked him to open the back door was probably his son Zhou Xianyang.

I gained much more from studying with him than from the School of Computer Science at Tsinghua University.

Studying there means being "broad", while studying here means being "deep"; if you specialize in one direction, you will definitely gain a lot.

In particular, Zhou Fengnian has to teach personally.

At this time, Zhou Xianyang didn't stubbornly say that he didn't need his father's help. In his heart, he wanted to surpass Zhou Fengnian, but he was still far away from him. If he didn't learn from him, he would have no chance in the future.

"Hey, who are you? You can't just come in here!"

At the gate of Shenzhou Computer Factory, the security guard saw a young man walking towards them and immediately shouted at him.

After two reorganizations by Zhou Fengnian, the Security Department is now very vigilant about anyone entering or leaving.

Even if they are our own workers, as long as they are not wearing factory uniforms and work badges, they will be stopped and, after their identities are verified, asked to be taken back by the workshop director.

I will definitely be scolded when I get back, and I will be criticized for the second time in a row.

"Hello, comrade. I am a student from Tsinghua University. I have been recommended to study in the factory. Here is my letter of introduction and my student ID card."

Zhou Xianyang spoke honestly to the security department, and then took out the letter of introduction and identity certificate.

"Here to study? Why didn't we hear about this announcement?"

The security department was stunned when they saw it. This is a letter of recommendation from a ministry! ?

You can't just stamp this seal randomly. If it turns out to be fake, you will be sentenced to at least ten years in prison.

Moreover, the student certificate from Tsinghua University doesn’t seem fake.

The gate security staff member was unsure and said to Zhou Xianyang in a much lighter tone, "Wait a moment, I'll go ask the superiors."

After saying that, the security department member returned to his booth and asked his colleagues to call their superiors.

After a while, he ran out again and said to Zhou Xianyang: "Comrade, please wait a moment, the leader of the factory office will be here soon."
