"Comrade Su Yu is here, please sit down."

Office of the Director of the Publicity Department.

Su Yu entered the office.

Li Hongmei saw that it was her.

A smile appeared on his face.

He stood up, took an enamel cup, and made a cup of hot tea for Su Yu.

Some tea leaves were poured into the enamel cup.

Steaming hot.

The tea leaves also emit a refreshing tea fragrance.

"Thank you, Auntie."

Li Hongmei rolled her eyes at Su Yu coquettishly, "You only know how to be sweet."

Su Yu chuckled twice.

Li Hongmei got down to business and asked in surprise, "I just heard Wang Jiefang tell you about you. He said that on your first day at work, you already learned how to project movies from him. When did you learn that?"

Li Hongmei was also very curious.

Su Yu had already made an excuse and shrugged, "I just watched it once and learned it. I learned other things from others before and I learned them very quickly. Actually, I don't think showing movies is that complicated."

"That Wang Jiefang told me that he only took a month to learn the subject the first time. I really don't know how he learned it."

Li Hongmei heard it.

I was suddenly speechless.

She could only conclude that this was because her niece had an extraordinary talent for learning.

Think about it.

She suddenly felt that it would be nice if Su Yu could go to school.

These are special times.

The national college entrance examination had not yet been resumed until 1977.

During this period, those who wanted to go to university mainly relied on recommendations to become workers, peasants, and soldiers.

The first type is recommendation by the masses, such as by grassroots units such as factories, rural areas, and military units.

The recommendation criteria are mainly good political thinking, good health, and age around 20 years old.

There are workers, poor and lower-middle peasants, soldiers and young cadres with an education level equivalent to junior high school or above who have outstanding performance in their units.

The second type is leadership approval. After being recommended by the grassroots unit, it needs to be approved by the superior leader.

The leader will decide whether to approve the student’s admission to the university based on the recommendation materials and understanding of the student, taking into account various factors.

As for the last one, it is the school review. The school will review the students who have been recommended and approved by the leaders. The review content includes political review, cultural level test, etc.

The cultural level test is relatively simple and is mainly aimed at understanding students' mastery of basic knowledge.

Political review is more stringent and will examine students' family background, political history, etc.

In addition, there are also "July 21 Workers' Universities" founded by some factories and mines.

Workers can enter the training program through selection by their units.

The duration of study is generally two years.

After graduation, he returned to work in the factory.

If Su Yu is good at studying, we can consider letting her develop in this area in the future.

"Alright, Auntie knows you're the smartest. You learned so quickly because you're naturally gifted. But don't be too proud. That's never good. As members of the working class and peasant class, we should focus on building this country and developing factories. We can't neglect ideological awareness."

Li Hongmei was afraid that Su Yu would become proud.

Gave a warning.

"I understand, Aunt."

Li Hongmei finished speaking and nodded.

He didn't continue talking and just told Su Yu about some of today's tasks.

"Today is your first day at work. Since you have already learned the projection technique, there is a movie that the factory needs to promote at around 4:00 p.m. This movie is quite important.

Someone from above will be coming down for an inspection today. I heard it's a leader from the Ministry of Industry. Remember to play the movie well and perform well."

Li Hongmei gave a serious warning.

Director Yang and the secretary of the steel plant are both cadres from the department.

All of them belong to the Ministry of Industry.

Many industrial parts produced by this factory with tens of thousands of employees are related to the country's future development, so leaders are often sent down to inspect it.

Su Yu and Wang Jiefang were responsible for showing the movie in the open-air square outside the steel rolling mill.

At this time, many employees have arrived at the factory gate.

They brought stools and small mats.

Everyone was talking and smiling.

A movie that was discussed excitedly.

"Do you know what movie is showing tonight?" someone asked.

"I heard it's a war movie, the kind with constant gunfire and hail of bullets. I'm so looking forward to it! My back and waist ache from work, so I want to experience the thrill of the movie."

Another person answered.

"I just hope there will be more touching plots. I am a rough guy like me, usually busy with work, and rarely have the opportunity to feel those delicate emotions. If there are soldiers sacrificing themselves for their comrades in the movie, it will definitely move me to tears."

"I think war films can help us better understand history. Seeing our ancestors fight for the country and the people under such difficult conditions is also an inspiration to us, and it will make us work harder in the future."

"I want to see the kind of plot where the protagonist leads a team deep into the enemy camp and completes an impossible mission. How cool would that be! After watching it, I feel like I can be like them and overcome various difficulties in the steel mill."

Everyone was talking at once.

I am looking forward to the upcoming movie.

His eyes occasionally glanced at the projector and the screen.

I started to look forward to it.

Su Yu and Wang Jiefang were dealing with projector issues in the open-air square.

It was almost five o'clock.

Basically everyone has left work early.

logistics department.

"Shufan, I heard there's a movie showing in front of the factory soon. Do you want to go watch it together? If you do, you'd better grab a small stool quickly. Don't go too late. If you go too late, you probably won't have time."

Colleague Zhang Xiaomin looked at Xu Shufan.

Said to her.

Xu Shufan heard that there was a movie to watch today.

I was stunned for a moment.

"You go by yourself. I'm not going."

She refused outright.

Zhang Xiaomin was also a little puzzled about Xu Shufan, a female colleague who rarely spoke on weekdays.

"Okay, I'll go first then."

Finished.

She turned and left.

Xu Shufan packed up the lunch box.

Clean thoroughly.

Put it back in its own cabinet.

See Zhang Xiaomin's back.

He snorted coldly.

There was a hint of disdain in his eyes.

She looked down on Zhang Xiaomin somewhat because she was not very good-looking and even worked as a warehouse manager in the logistics department with her.

She felt that she was being suffocated.

"It's all my dad's fault. He made me work as a warehouse manager in the logistics department. It's so annoying. The publicity department won't let me go."

Her father is Director Xu of the second workshop of the steel plant.

He dotes on her very much on weekdays.

When I think about how I asked my father to let me go to the Propaganda Department, but he refused.

Xu Shufan was a little angry.

But she also knew.

The main reason why I couldn’t go was because Li Hongmei from the Propaganda Department didn’t agree.

When I think of this.

She frowned.

I thought of some recent rumors in the factory.

About Su Yu and Xiang Yunfeng.

No nonsense either.

I quickly packed up my lunch box.

Turn around and go towards the security department.
