From the History of the Republic of China to Raising Children in the 1970s

Secretary Chu touched his chin and thought for a while, "There are always people checking in the morning, so let's do it in the evening." Some measures have just been implemented, so it's not good to change suddenly.

Li Chengye also thought so.

Secretary Chu thought of Li Chengye's familiar attitude before, and asked him, "Are you familiar with those two professors?"

Li Chengye nodded, "We often played chess together before. I went to the library yesterday to borrow two books related to machinery to read. I didn't expect them to see it. Later I learned that they were professors from the University of Science and Technology. The two professors are very good people. When they heard that I wanted to learn, they were willing to teach me for free. Professor Zhou is also going to be my D Chinese teacher."

Li Chengye naturally told what happened yesterday, of course, his own movements were the focus.

As expected, when Secretary Chu heard that Li Chengye was going to study with two professors, he became very interested, especially because there was a language called D. "Really? Professor Zhou can actually speak D?" You know, they will go to D country.

Li Chengye nodded, "Professor Zhou once asked someone to learn from him in order to read the information books of D country."

Secretary Chu looked at Li Chengye seriously, "Then you must study hard, and mechanical technology. Since we are in a steel plant, it is much better to have technology than not."

"Okay." Li Chengye also responded very seriously.

After saying these things, Li Chengye began to report Secretary Chu's schedule for the next few days as usual.

"Secretary Chu, this Sunday is the social gathering of our factory and the textile factory. Will you go there?" After reporting the matter, Li Chengye thought of Hu Liren and asked him.

Secretary Chu had long forgotten about this matter. "How many people will attend the social gathering this time?"

Li Chengye: "It is expected that there will be about a thousand people, more than 500 male comrades and more than 400 female comrades." Although Hu Liren listened to Li Chengye's opinion, went to the street office for help, and continued to mobilize the textile factory, but in the end there were still fewer male comrades than female comrades. If Hu Liren had not decisively stopped the registration of male comrades, it is estimated that the gap would be even greater.

Secretary Chu frowned upon hearing this, "Are we going to have one hundred fewer female comrades?"

Li Chengye said helplessly, "There's nothing we can do about it. There are many bachelors in our factory."

Secretary Chu smiled, "You are one of the bachelors, are you really not going to a blind date?"

Li Chengye shook his head, "I really don't want to go."

Secretary Chu was just joking, and didn't mean anything else. After hearing this, he stopped dwelling on it. Then he asked: "Where is the venue? There are quite a lot of people."

Li Chengye: "The union wants to arrange it in the cafeteria. We have three cafeterias, which can accommodate these people. We just need to clean the cafeteria in advance."

Secretary Chu thought about it and felt that this was a feasible arrangement. Since the union had approved it, he had no objection.

"When does the social gathering start?"

"The social gathering starts at 8:30 a.m. and is estimated to take three hours. When it's done, our steel mill will present a shirt to the woman as the man's representative and arrange for her to have dinner in our cafeteria. Of course, the shirt will be presented after the marriage certificate is obtained." This is also to prevent someone from cheating because of a piece of clothing. However, it is also because of this piece of clothing that many female comrades are willing to attend the social gathering this time, so the expense is still worth it.
