Chapter 2286

Tian Hongwei walked slowly out of the slightly dilapidated gate of the factory department, subconsciously raised his head, and met the scorching sun in the sky. It was only past eight o'clock in the morning, but that scorching sun had already released annoying heat.

Tian Hongwei narrowed his eyes, muttered something in his mouth, then straightened his waist, put his hands behind his back, and walked toward the factory gate steadily and unhurriedly. He wanted everyone in the factory to see clearly that the true mastermind behind this welcome ceremony was him, Tian Hongwei.

"Leader!"

"Section Chief Tian!"

"..."

Those who called him leader were workers from the sales department, and those who called him Section Chief Tian were workers who came to welcome Zhou Andong spontaneously.

Tian Hongwei nodded and responded with a smile: "Thank you all for your hard work!"

"Not hard!" A female worker in the textile workshop said with expectation: "Zhou Andong is the director of our factory, and our Woolen Mill will definitely get better and better in the future."

Tian Hongwei laughed and said: "I have the same idea as you. Director Zhou will definitely be able to lead the Woolen Mill and lead us to regain our former glory."

"Section Chief Tian!" A young worker asked: "When will Director Zhou arrive?"

Tian Hongwei looked at his watch: "He has to go to the Organization Department first, he should be here soon."

As soon as his voice fell, someone pointed to the intersection ahead: "Look, is he here?"

Tian Hongwei looked up and said hurriedly: "He's here, everyone get ready."

Qiao Xiaojiao held two small colored flags in her hand, frowned slightly, and said with a bit of complaint: "Leader, you said you wanted to organize a welcome ceremony, why didn't you say it in advance yesterday? This is too hasty, even the banners are too late to prepare!"

Chen Dahai beside him snorted, also echoing with full dissatisfaction: "Isn't it? This is clearly showing no sincerity. If you could put a little more heart into it, it wouldn't be like this, notifying us early in the morning to organize some welcome ceremony!"

This guy had a big drum in front of him, held drumsticks in his hand, stretched his neck, and stared intently at the approaching motorcade.

Tian Hongwei didn't pay attention to them. Seeing the motorcade getting closer and closer, he raised his right hand, waved it hard, and shouted loudly: "Start!"

Following Tian Hongwei's order, only a loud "tuo" sound was heard. Chen Dahai raised the drumsticks in his hand high and hit the drum surface heavily.

At the same time, the one responsible for blowing the trumpet beside him reacted quickly, put the trumpet to his mouth, puffed up his cheeks, and blew "di di da da".

The one responsible for hitting the cymbals on the other side didn't show weakness either, waving his hands constantly, making the two copper cymbals collide and make a crisp and loud "pa" sound.

"Welcome, welcome, warmly welcome!"

For a time, the atmosphere at the scene was very lively, and everyone shouted in unison. The sound rose and fell, resounding through the clouds.

Zhou Andong, who was sitting in the car, heard the noise coming from outside, and the muscles on his face twitched fiercely.

Gu Bing, who was sitting beside him, saw this and laughed: "It must be welcoming you. Get off the car. If you don't go down, the enthusiasm of the workers will be in vain."

Zhou Andong rolled his eyes at Gu Bing: "Even if it's welcoming me, the leader must get off the car first, and then I can go down."

"Is it completely different between being afraid and doing it?" Gu Bing's tone was very much like watching the excitement without fear of trouble.

"Afraid or not and doing it or not are two completely different things." Zhou Andong squinted at Gu Bing: "Do you think I would be as stupid as you, clearly knowing that doing something will offend people, and still stupidly go and do it."

"Zhou Andong!" Gu Bing said very seriously: "If you dare to slander me for having no brain again, I will get off the car and leave immediately, and I will no longer be the secretary of the Woolen Mill, leaving you to be ravaged by them alone here."

Zhou Andong was full of disdain and mocked: "Okay, you go. If I stop you even half a bit, I will change my name and surname from now on."

"Good, you said it!" Gu Bing glared at Zhou Andong, then reached out and pushed the door open, putting on a posture of getting off the car and leaving.

"I said it!" Zhou Andong said with a smile: "Get off the car!"

Gu Bing was embarrassed. It was not easy for the Gu family to produce such a dark horse. If he really dared to leave, his father could hang him up and whip him.

Just then, Wang Jianmin and Organization Department Minister Zhao Zhenshi got off the car. Seeing this, Gu Bing's eyes lit up, as if he had grabbed a straw, took the opportunity to raise his head high, put on a determined look, got off the car without hesitation, then turned a corner, and strode forward.

Zhou Andong shook his head helplessly. He was over thirty years old and was always so childish.

The leaders had all got off the car, so Zhou Andong naturally couldn't sit in the car, so he also got off.

"Mayor Wang, Minister Zhao, warmly welcome the two leaders to visit and guide the work of the Woolen Mill."

Tian Hongwei stood in the distance and stretched out his hands with a face full of smiles, walking fast as if there was wind under his feet to meet them.

Wang Jianmin and Zhao Zhenshi shook hands with Tian Hongwei with a smile, and then Zhao Zhenshi said with a smile: "You made such a big battle, if it weren't for Mayor Wang and me knowing the situation, I'm afraid I would really mistakenly think that everything was prepared specifically to welcome us."

"Minister Zhao, you are joking!" Tian Hongwei hurriedly apologized: "Of course, this is to welcome all the leaders."

His words could be described as watertight. Wang Jianmin and Zhao Zhenshi were leaders, and Zhou Andong and Gu Bing were also leaders. No one could pick any faults.

Just then, Gu Bing walked over. Tian Hongwei quickly stretched out his hands again and said loudly: "Welcome Gu Shuji. In the future, under your leadership, the Woolen Mill will definitely be able to regain its glory and reach the peak."

Immediately after, Zhou Andong came. Tian Hongwei didn't dare to neglect at all, hurriedly walked two steps forward, and then held Zhou Andong's hand tightly. His attitude was much more enthusiastic than before, simply as if he had seen his own father.

"Director Zhou, ever since I learned the news that you were about to serve as the director of the Woolen Mill, the factory leadership team and all the workers have been looking forward to your early arrival day and night. Now that you have finally arrived, don't mention how happy everyone is!"

Zhou Andong said with a smile: "Everything is arranged, right?"

Tian Hongwei nodded: "Secretary Shi arranged it personally. All cadres above the deputy section level are participating, and they are all waiting in the Cultural Palace."

"Then let's go there too." Zhou Andong nodded: "Mayor Wang and Minister Zhao are very busy, don't delay the two leaders' time anymore."

After saying this, Zhou Andong looked at Wang Jianmin and Zhao Zhenshi: "Two leaders, let's get in the car, everyone is in the Cultural Palace."

Zhao Zhenshi smiled and said happily: "The workers have all come to the gate to welcome us. With such great kindness, let's not take the car anymore, let's walk together, chat, and it's still early, no need to worry!"

Zhou Andong couldn't help but smile. If Wang Jianmin and Zhao Zhenshi were not accompanying him, even if he were forced into the car, it wouldn't work. He had to chat with the workers who welcomed him, contact feelings, this opportunity was rare.

"Okay!" Zhou Andong nodded without hesitation, then turned to look at Tian Hongwei beside him, his tone light and fast: "Section Chief Tian, the leader said to walk, so let's walk together."

Tian Hongwei heard this and shouted loudly to the many workers present: "Everyone, be quick, pack up, let's go back."

Actually, they had already taken action before he spoke, and the main trouble was those with musical instruments.

Just like that, Wang Jianmin, Zhao Zhenshi, Zhou Andong, and Gu Bing walked into the gate under the enthusiastic crowd of nearly a hundred workers and walked toward the Cultural Palace.

Zhou Andong was surrounded by quite a few people, chatting with him enthusiastically. Along the way, laughter and laughter continued, and the atmosphere was exceptionally harmonious.

"Little brother!"

Zhou Andong turned to look at the young man holding a suona who was following him closely, and asked with a smile: "Your suona is played quite well. Did you learn it from a teacher?"

The young man looked to be about twenty-three or twenty-four years old, his skin was as dark and shiny as ancient bronze, his figure looked exceptionally lean, and he was not very tall, half a head shorter than Zhou Andong, estimated to be less than 1.7 meters, but he looked quite spirited.

Hearing Zhou Andong's words, the young man hurriedly replied: "No, I didn't learn it from a teacher. When I was young, I watched people dancing yangge and felt that the one blowing the trumpet was very majestic. I thought at that time that I must learn suona."

"After returning home, I told my parents, but my father didn't agree, saying that learning this stuff was useless, and putting this mind and energy into learning was better than anything. Fortunately, my mother supported me very much and took me to buy a suona and related books."

"In addition, they went through a lot of trouble to help me find a teacher to give me enlightenment guidance, but it required tuition, and taught me for less than two months in total, so this doesn't count as apprenticeship."

Zhou Andong asked with great interest: "That is to say, you only asked a teacher to teach you in the initial enlightenment stage, and the subsequent learning all relied on your own exploration?"

"Right!" The young man nodded and replied: "My parents and brothers and sisters are all workers in the Woolen Mill, and I also attended the factory-run secondary school. After graduation, I was assigned directly to the factory. Our factory has a yangge team, and when I was in secondary school, I blew the trumpet in the yangge team."

Zhou Andong said with a smile: "I can also blow suona. When I have time, let's have a discussion."

"Director, you can also blow suona?" The young man was very surprised, his face instantly became excited, and he hurriedly opened his mouth to say: "My name is Wang Qiao, and I am a worker in the sales department."

Zhou Andong nodded: "When I have time, I will go to the sales department to find you."

Just at this time, Hu Dajun was seen bringing a few people to meet them quickly. Even from a long distance, Hu Dajun couldn't wait to stretch out his hands, his face full of flattering smiles, and shouted loudly.

"Mayor Wang, Minister Zhao!"

As soon as the voice fell, Hu Dajun seemed afraid that he wouldn't be enthusiastic enough, accelerated his pace and ran two steps, and in the blink of an eye, he came to Wang Jianmin and Zhao Zhenshi, held their hands tightly, and the flattering smile on his face became even more intense.

"I'm really sorry, two leaders. I have been organizing documents and materials in the office, preparing to complete the relevant handover work with Comrade Zhou Andong. I didn't expect you to come so early, so I couldn't rush to the gate to welcome the two leaders in time!"

Wang Jianmin smiled slightly: "Minister Zhao and I are not the protagonists today. We are specifically escorting the new secretary and director to take office."

"Right!" Zhao Zhenshi beside him also nodded with a smile: "Speaking of which, you haven't met Gu Bing and Zhou Andong yet, right? Come, come, come, I'll introduce you."

Hu Dajun's face was stiff, but he had to squeeze out a smile that was uglier than crying.

"In the future, you must communicate well with Comrade Zhou Andong and learn humbly from others how to manage enterprises well and make them bigger and stronger."

This made Hu Dajun feel as uncomfortable as eating shit, but he had to squeeze out a smile that was uglier than crying on his stiff face.

"Although I haven't met Comrade Zhou Andong yet, I have known him for a long time. It can be said that I have been looking forward to today's meeting."

Zhao Zhenshi took a deep look at Hu Dajun, and the smile on his face became very intriguing: "Gu Shuji, Comrade Andong, come, I'll introduce you."

Gu Bing and Zhou Andong walked over, and Zhao Zhenshi introduced both sides.

"Gu Shuji, hello, I didn't expect you to be so young. It's really a hero out of a boy, and I suddenly feel that I am old."

After saying this, this guy turned around, reached out and held Zhou Andong's hand tightly, and the degree of enthusiasm was simply unbelievable.

"Comrade Andong, finally looking forward to your arrival. Just as Minister Zhao said, in the future, I will definitely ask you for advice humbly and learn from you... "

Hu Dajun kept talking while holding Zhou Andong's hand tightly, and his appearance was no more than that when he saw his own father.

"Okay!" Wang Jianmin interrupted Hu Dajun's emotional performance: "Let's go, talk about anything after the appointment is announced."

The Cultural Palace of the Woolen Mill could not be compared with the Cultural Palace of the Jiangzhou Distillery. The huge venue could accommodate six or seven thousand people and was very famous in the whole of Beijing.

At this time, Shi Guoqiang had already received the report from below and was waiting at the entrance of the Cultural Palace with the factory leadership team. Seeing the leaders coming, he brought people to meet them, and there was another round of hypocritical polite greetings, and then they walked into the Cultural Palace.

The Woolen Mill had about more than 100 cadres above the section level. The area of the Cultural Palace was too large, and everyone sat in the front.

When Zhou Andong and the others came in, everyone in the front stood up, and then enthusiastic applause rang out.

Zhou Andong showed a smile that was hard to figure out on his face. Gu Bing beside him looked at him, leaned toward him, and whispered.
