Rebirth in 1960, My Industrial Age

Chapter 40 Watching a Movie

Zhou Fengnian rode his bike to the cinema with Zhou Yan. After Zhou Fengnian stopped the bike, Zhou Yan jumped directly off the bike.

"Comrade Zhou Yan, wait a moment, I'll go park my bike."

After saying that, Zhou Fengnian went to park his bicycle. There was a special area for parking bicycles near the cinema, and it was guarded by someone.

After Zhou Fengnian left, Zhou Yan adjusted her clothes with a blushing face, even stretching her underwear.

When she was sitting on the back of the bicycle, she kept stopping and starting, causing her to lose control and bump into Zhou Fengnian's back several times, and even Runxue on her chest was squeezed several times.

Zhou Yan was a little skeptical, but there were indeed a lot of people on the street just now.

"Comrade Zhou Fengnian is not that bad. This must have been an accident."

This kind of accident happened too often, and her underwear was almost knocked off.

"Sorry for the wait, Comrade Zhou Yan."

When Zhou Fengnian came back, he also took two bottles of soda, handed them over and said, "You treated me to a movie, so I'll treat you to juice."

"Thank you, Zhou Fengnian, you can just call me Zhou Yan."

After taking the soda, Zhou Yan smiled and said, comrades are more of a work relationship, while calling each other by their names directly makes it closer to a friendship.

"Okay, Zhou Yan, let's go in."

Zhou Fengnian said with a smile that Zhou Yan had also grown up to his taste, with long legs, a thin waist, a plump figure, and a charming appearance, and was no worse than Xue Peihua.

Even her figure is better than Xue Peihua's.

Moreover, Zhou Fengnian saw that Zhou Yan had further ideas about him, and he did not refuse. After all, he was old enough.

In this era, dating is quite obvious. Taking the initiative to contact someone means you are interested, and if you are not interested, just reject them directly.

If the other party refuses and you still approach him/her, you may be suspected of being a hooligan.

Zhou Fengnian was very focused when watching the movie. Although the movie was shot very simply, the actors performed very seriously.

Moreover, the Red Flag that Zhou Yan selected was a new movie that had just been released not long ago and many people had not seen it, so everyone in the cinema watched it with great gusto.

After the movie was over, Zhou Fengnian and Zhou Yan left the cinema together.

After Zhou Fengnian pushed the bicycle out, Zhou Yan suddenly said, "This movie is really good. Watching Zhu Laozhong's struggle, I feel like I have learned a lot."

Zhou Fengnian smiled and said, "Zhou Yan, it's too tiring to watch a movie and study at the same time. You should just relax for a while."

"Zhou Fengnian, you are right."

Zhou Yan smiled and said, then followed Zhou Fengnian and slowly walked outside.

"Zhou Fengnian, did you want to be friends with Xue Peihua before?"

After walking out of the cinema, Zhou Yan suddenly asked, which made Zhou Fengnian stunned for a moment. After thinking for a while, he said, "That's true, but it's impossible now."

Zhou Yan asked with her beautiful eyes moving, "Why? Xue Peihua is the most popular girl in the Propaganda Department. There are many people who want to be her friend, not only from our factory, but also from other factories."

Zhou Fengnian said: "The gap is too big. I am just a small technician. Comrade Xue Peihua has a good family background. Except for me and my fourth sister, everyone in my family lives in the countryside."

Zhou Yan shook her head and said, "So what if you live in the countryside? You are a good person, smart and hardworking. You will definitely be no worse off than Xue Peihua's family in the future."

Before coming here, Zhou Yan had already known Zhou Fengnian's situation clearly. She knew everything except his family. He graduated from a technical secondary school with a major in machinery. He was promoted three levels in four years after entering the factory. He was the acting director of the new workshop some time ago.

Others of Zhou Fengnian's age have just finished their apprenticeships. Zhou Yan's family has introduced her to several blind dates, but the best one is only a first-level worker.

It's totally incomparable to Zhou Fengnian.

"Zhou Fengnian, you are already very good. No one in our factory is better than you."

Zhou Yan suddenly spoke boldly, looking at Zhou Fengnian with her beautiful eyes without blinking.

Even if her action did not express her feelings, it was almost the same. Even at a time when advocating freedom of love, it was considered a relatively bold expression.

If it were anyone else, being approached so boldly by Zhou Yan, they would slowly fall in love with her even if they didn't like her, but Zhou Fengnian has been around for decades.

"Haha, I didn't expect you to figure it out, Zhou Yan. I thought so too."

Zhou Fengnian smiled and said, "The factory director asked me some time ago if I would like to go to the new factory. If I go, I can directly become a deputy section chief at the 18th level, but I refused."

"Ah? Level 18 deputy section chief. Why would you refuse?"

Zhou Yan was surprised when she heard this. She graduated from high school and naturally knew what the rank of deputy section chief at level 18 meant.

She is only a level 33 broadcaster after graduating from high school, and her salary is only yuan. The salary of an th level deputy section chief is twice as much as hers.

"Because the promotion is too slow, I can become an engineer after two years in a technical position. If I work in an administrative position, I will probably need several years to be promoted to the next level, and I will also be responsible for the technical position's affairs."

Zhou Fengnian shook his head after saying this: "It's busy and tiring, and I like to focus on technology, so there's no need for me to go."

Zhou Yan was even more surprised after hearing this, and asked with some disbelief on her face: "Zhou Fengnian, can you become an engineer in two years?"

"If it weren't for the factory's restrictions on length of service and grade, I would have been able to take the engineer exam last time. You may not believe it, but you will know in two years."

Now Zhou Fengnian is still the deputy director of the new workshop and earns 65 yuan a month.

After the new workshop moves to the new factory in a few months, his position as deputy director will be revoked, and his salary will then become 55 yuan.

"No, I believe you."

Zhou Yan looked at Zhou Fengnian with watery eyes and said with admiration: "Zhou Fengnian, you can definitely do it."

She had liked Zhou Fengnian's appearance before, his outstanding looks, high salary, and he had made several contributions in the factory.

But now Zhou Yan liked Zhou Fengnian's confidence. When Zhou Fengnian said just now that he would become an engineer, he was extremely confident, which made her also believe it firmly.

After chatting for a while, Zhou Fengnian rode his bike to take Zhou Yan home. After all, it was already late after the movie, and if they delayed going back any further they would not be able to make it in time for dinner.

It’s just that when riding back, there were fewer people on the street, so the method of sudden braking was not convenient, otherwise Zhou Fengnian could have enjoyed a few more pushes on the back.

"Thank you, Zhou Fengnian."

"You're welcome. I'll go back first, Zhou Yan."

After sending Zhou Yan home, Zhou Fengnian rode his bike to the intersection of Nanluoguxiang. Fortunately, Zhou Yan's home was also near the machinery factory, so it only took him more than ten minutes to ride back.

After arriving home, Zhou Chunhua welcomed Zhou Fengnian in with a smile on her face, and then took out the meal that had been kept hot.

After Zhou Fengnian washed his hands and sat down, Zhou Chunhua couldn't help asking, "Third brother, have we become friends this time? I think this girl can be my third sister-in-law."
