Chapter 328 March 8th Red Banner Bearer

Chen Qing wore a red top and black straight-leg pants today, looking bright, elegant, and neat.

She appeared.

The cheers from the crowd surged.

The factory leaders sat in the front row, feeling the unique popularity that belonged to Chen Qing.

Today is International Women's Day.

Sunday.

The female workers in the workshop were granted special leave, while the male workers were given leave in accordance with the rules and regulations.

The number of people on holiday today is not as large as that on National Day, but a glance at the scene reveals a sea of ​​people, including factory workers' families and children, all heading towards the factory.

The factory leaders were all taken aback by the power of this appeal.

Chen Qing stood still, his posture upright and poised.

All eyes were on her.

Chen Qing smiled and said, "Hello comrades, today is International Women's Day. On this special day, let us uphold the revolutionary view of women, carry forward the revolutionary spirit of our female comrades, and contribute our strength to building a socialist new China!"

Her words were powerful and resonant, which stirred the emotions of the women sitting in the audience.

Chen Qing began announcing the first performance, prompting enthusiastic applause from the audience.

The first program was a chorus of "We Workers Have Strength" performed by the assembly workshop.

More than twenty female workers lined up in a neat row and sang loudly with great spirit.

They didn't have fancy performance costumes; their uniform blue overalls were the best attire they could wear.

The singing was loud and powerful, expressing the lofty aspirations of working women in the new China.

Many audience members sang along.

The audience reacted enthusiastically, and the women singing on stage were also moved.

The opening was exceptionally good.

Director Lin felt a little more at ease.

The welding class performed a fast-paced storytelling performance titled "Who Says Women Are Inferior to Men?"

Four young female workers, holding clappers, sang with a brisk rhythm: "Welding torch in hand, displaying superb skills, molten iron sparks and reflects the red sky. Who says women's skills are inferior? Look at my smooth and skillful welds!"

The female workers in the audience cheered and applauded enthusiastically.

The programs came one after another, each more wonderful than the last.

The logistics team's loyalty dance.

The technical department's short play, "The Female Technician Goes to the Countryside," and so on.

Each program embodies the hard work of the female workers and showcases their diverse talents.

Cheers erupted throughout the venue. Chen Qing would go on stage between each performance to introduce the next program to be performed, until the 'March 8th Red Banner Pacesetter' was the grand finale.

The title of "March 8th Red Banner Bearer" did not belong exclusively to the machinery factory; it was awarded to comrades selected to participate in the provincial women's federation.

Based on the timeline, they returned after the performance.

Of course, this is entirely due to geographical advantages; women in other areas may not be able to celebrate International Women's Day at the factory.

Director Lin will introduce the March 8th Red Banner Pacesetters.

"The first recipient of the March 8th Red Banner Award is Comrade Liu Xiulan, a senior worker in our machinery factory. Her outstanding achievements in the machinery factory were also recognized by Comrade Chen Qing and featured on our blackboard newspaper!"

Everyone remembered that it was a blackboard bulletin written by Chen Qing.

With her hand over her chest, Liu Xiulan walked steadily onto the stage as Director Lin introduced her with tears in her eyes.

Chen Qing watched her step onto her own stage and felt proud of Master Liu.

When Liu Xiulan stepped onto the stage, many people applauded enthusiastically.

In particular, there were apprentices trained by Liu Xiulan. When they saw their master walk onto the podium, they raised their hands high above their heads and applauded loudly.

Director Lin asked Liu Xiulan to give a speech.

Liu Xiulan said, "I am very happy to be on the podium on International Women's Day. I am grateful to the organization for recognizing my work. I hope that all female comrades can also be positive and strive for excellence!"

Her voice was not loud, but steady and firm, possessing a charm honed by years of experience.

Chen Qing stood on the side of the stage and applauded.

Director Lin then introduced the next "March 8th Red Banner Pacesetter".

When all the March 8th Red Banner Pacesetters stood on the stage, Chen Qing thought that the grand occasion of the machinery factory might be featured on the stage, so she wanted to step back. She didn't want to attract too much attention this time.

Director Lin and Liu Xiulan pulled her to the front of the stage. The other March 8th Red Banner recipients on stage told Chen Qing to stay standing; since she was already on stage, she shouldn't get off!
Chen Qing blushed slightly and stood awkwardly between them.

The photographer captured the moment in the photo.

The women on stage, young and old, were all full of energy and high spirits.

The performance for International Women's Day has come to an end. Next up is the holiday for women.

Chen Qing stepped down to find Xiao Yu.

Tian Mengya hugged Xiaoyu, tears streaming down her face: "Waaah, Chen Qing, I'm so touched to see you taking pictures with them."

She was filled with emotion.

My heart yearns for it.

But I also felt powerless.

Xiaoyu's eyes lit up: "Auntie, I see you! I'm so happy!!!"

She had a bright smile.

Only pride in women.

Chen Qing hugged and kissed Xiao Yu: "As long as you're happy, we'll go out to eat later."

Tian Mengya wiped away her tears: "I want to go too!"

"Let's hurry up, so the state-run restaurant doesn't get too crowded," Chen Qing urged.

He Yuxiang followed silently, harboring a deep admiration for his aunt.

He didn't really know what other women were like, but he felt that the women in his family were all very strong.

My aunt is.

My younger sister too.

The group rushed to the state-run hotel in four days and managed to secure the opportunity to share a table with others.

The woman sitting at the same table said shyly to Chen Qing, "Chen Qing, I came here today specifically for International Women's Day, but I feel that the other women are also very nice."

Chen Qing smiled and said, "Yes, they are very good."

Looking at the radiant Chen Qing, Tian Mengya couldn't help but feel envious.

Especially when Chen Qing is on stage, she admires Chen Qing and is proud to have such a good friend, but she can't help feeling inferior.

It seems like I don't have any talent.

She is not a good match for Chen Qing at all.

Tian Mengya was secretly heartbroken.

They lost interest in the food on the table.

Xiaoyu and Chen Qing ate voraciously.

He Yuxiang really wanted to advise them to be a little more restrained, because it made it seem like his cooking was terrible!

Chen Qing ate with great satisfaction.

Xiao Yu rubbed her round belly and said, "I'm so full."

After the four of them had eaten and drunk their fill, they walked home. Tian Mengya also came to Chen Qing's house.

Talia had been waiting for a while, and when she saw Tian Mengya holding Chen Qing's arm, the corners of her mouth that had been raised faltered slightly.

Mao Mao rushed towards her aunt without hesitation: "Happy Women's Day, Auntie!"

"Good good."

Chen Qing quickly caught him.

To avoid getting knocked down.

Xiaoyu told Mao Mao, "My aunt hosted the event today, and she was amazing!"

"My dad is working overtime, so my parents won't let me go," Mao Mao said, very disappointed.

He Yuxiang listened to their conversation, then unlocked the door and let everyone in to chat.

He also fetched some food and placed it on the table in the main hall for them to eat.

Looking at the table full of snacks, Chen Qing thought to herself, "You guys hurry up and eat!"

As she spoke, she began to eat first.
