Chapter 186 Extra

When family relationships are harmonious, everything inside and outside will be harmonious.

In the 1980s cultural evening party, Wen Xiuwei missed it due to her pregnancy, but Guan Jinqiao made it and stole the show. Just after the Chinese New Year, she went to Hong Kong to film a movie. After seeing the prosperity of Hong Kong and the advanced entertainment industry, Guan Jinqiao's temperament changed drastically.

Wen Xiuwei was very envious. She also wanted to cooperate with Hong Kong, but she would not be able to go out to work for at least another year.

She stayed at home quietly every day, but it seemed as if everyone was angry with her. One after another, first Chu Jiujiu went to the United States for an inspection with the team, and then Han Shengyi also took the technical masters of his factory to study in the United States. Even Chu Shao went to the south for a short period of time for a month. After returning, he was tanned twice more.

At the end of May, there was still some time before the due date. Perhaps the baby in the mother's belly felt the mother's strong desire to go out and play, so it was thoughtfully born early. Everyone was very happy, except Chu Jiujiu, who was shocked.

She will be able to go back in three days, how can it be such a coincidence!

Chu Jiu stomped her feet in anger, but there was nothing she could do. However, it was better this way. She couldn't catch up anyway, so there was no need to rush back.

During the inspection, Chu Jiujiu once again showed off her extraordinary memory in the library. When the reception staff noticed it, their eyes lit up. They wanted Chu Jiujiu to help complete the compilation work. In addition to treating her to a meal, they also offered her various conditions. They were blatantly trying to poach her.

Every time she was invited to dinner, Chu Jiujiu went with a smile on her face. With her behavior, the other party thought there was a chance and became more enthusiastic. Finally, Chu Jiujiu really took the job. She repeatedly said that she liked life abroad very much and this job was just a period of adjustment. If she could see the sincerity here, then maybe she would not go back.

The editing work did not take long, and Chu Jiujiu finished it in just one month. After finishing it, Chu Jiujiu took the US dollars given by the other party and various gifts, and quickly boarded the embassy's plane. Han Shengyi was already waiting for her on the plane. As soon as she got on the plane, Chu Jiujiu excitedly took the typewriter she bought locally and started typing.

Han Shengyi asked her, "How much did you write down?"

Chu Jiujiu glanced at him and said proudly, "I've written it all down!"

At this point, she wrinkled her nose in annoyance. "They were wary of me, so they didn't let me see any important information. But this is enough for now. The storage location of the cultural relics, the number of times they changed hands, and the historical facts that cannot be discussed. Once I summarize them, I can win another award."

Thinking of certain scenes, Chu Jiujiu laughed out loud. "Prizes, certificates, bonuses, and even a researcher position—all of that is settled now! Hey, Director Ma said he's signed me up for the National Outstanding Youth Award. If I can win an international award, I should be selected, right?"

Han Shengyi: "It's hard to say. There are so many outstanding young people, and your achievements are relatively unknown."

"That's right," Chu Jiujiu sighed. "There's still a long way to go. It's just a title. It doesn't matter whether you get it or not. Well, fame is important no matter what time it is. I hope the manuscript I send to the publishing house can be approved as soon as possible. My name will be printed on it."

Facts have proved that what Han Shengyi said was right. Chu Jiujiu, the outstanding young person of that year, did fail the exam.

Chu Jiujiu had already expected this, but what she didn't expect was that Han Shengyi secretly made the list without her knowledge.

The reason is that he led a group of veteran technicians through personal efforts to overcome the difficulties of existing domestic technologies, and selflessly shared his technology with state-owned enterprises. His factory employed many workers with low education and who suffered discrimination in society, and he used a dividend system to return profits to all workers, truly achieving common prosperity.

Chu Jiujiu stared at the lead type on the newspaper. The article praised Han Shengyi highly, saying that he was a young man with a conscience and an outstanding entrepreneur who loved his country and his people.

Chu Jiujiu: “…”

Han Shengyi hired many illiterate workers and actively taught them literacy. This wasn't because he wanted to take care of them, but because they were being paid low wages. After all, low-skilled jobs didn't require literacy. The literacy classes were designed to help workers write their own names, and to write down their deeds so they could submit them to the government for rewards.

There is also a profit-sharing system, which was initially a big promise offered to the workers because the factory was really short of funds. Fortunately, sales were good right after the opening. If sales were not good, the workers would probably have been cursing for several months.

To sum up, Han Shengyi is not much different from other businessmen. There is definitely something fishy about this newspaper!

Chu Jiujiu put the newspaper in front of Han Shengyi: "Did you bribe the reporter?"

Han Shengyi glanced at the newspaper at hand and asked, "Why would I bribe a reporter?"

"and you……"

Han Shengyi: "What's the point of bribing reporters? I bribed the editor-in-chief directly. I treated him to a meal and gave his son a new car. In fact, this report has been published several times, you just saw it today. Look, the return is not bad. I applied for factory expansion, and it was approved that day. I also received a construction subsidy."

Chu Jiujiu: “…”

There is no business without fraud.

She is still too young.

In the autumn of 1980, Han Shengyi became famous first. He made a fortune before he graduated. When the motorcycle factory expanded, he used the money to open a car factory. Even though the technology had been shared, the technical personnel were still in his hands. He was always one step ahead of others.

In the late autumn of 1980, the Chu family celebrated the 100th birthday of their child. The newborn family member was a girl, and Chu Shao named her Chu Kesi. This name has different meanings in everyone's eyes. For example, Chu Liqiang thinks that Chu Shao named her this to commemorate Zhang Fengjuan, while Wen Xiuwei thinks that he named her this to miss the good times in the past.

But only Chu Shao and Chu Jiujiu knew that the reason she was called Chu Kesi was because there was "thinking" first and then "thinking", and since she was the elder sister, she was naturally called this name.

When no one was around, Chu Jiujiu held the little baby in her arms, rocking her and whispering in her ear, "I'm your aunt, and you're my aunt too, hahahaha, from now on we'll each be our own. Come on, call me aunt."

Chukesi responded by blowing out a bubble of saliva.

…

In the summer of 1981, Chu Jiujiu received a doctoral admission letter. This time it was not just a piece of paper, but more like a certificate with a velvet red cover. Chu Jiujiu was admitted to the doctoral program, but the happiest person was not her, but Grandma Han.

In the middle of the night, Grandpa Han got up and sat up slowly. He suddenly heard a strange sound. He turned around and found that it was Grandma Han laughing in her dream.

As she laughed, she woke herself up with laughter. After waking up, she saw Grandpa Han's horrified expression. She didn't despise him, but said gently, "Go to sleep quickly. Come back early tomorrow and we will discuss how to take care of the child."

Grandpa Han: “…”
