Jixi City.
Headquarters of the 4th Agricultural Reclamation Division of the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps.
People come and go in the division's political work office.
Almost all the civilian staff of the entire division are concentrated here.
Han Changchu, the political commissar of the Fourth Division, is reviewing the ideological reports submitted by each regiment.
He personally reviewed the articles submitted by young cadres from various groups, while the articles submitted by the educated youth offices of other groups were reviewed by other people in the office.
Han Changchu put down the manuscript in his hand and shook his head with emotion.
Since the establishment of the Fourth Division, the cultural level of the entire division has been greatly improved because it has absorbed a large number of urban youths.
But there are still only a few people who can write brilliant articles.
He rubbed his brows.
In the large office outside the door, Minister Li, who is in charge of cadre work, and Director Huang, who is in charge of youth work, had been arguing for a long time.
This gave Han Changchu a headache.
The articles written by the educated youth are indeed better than those written by the cadres, but I cannot help but be slightly biased towards the cadres, after all, these people are the ones who get practical work done.
They don't have the freedom to daydream like the educated youth.
"Let them both in!"
Han Changchu finally had to compromise.
If she doesn't give Director Huang an explanation today, she probably won't leave.
Sure enough, when Director Huang came in, he was holding a manuscript in his hand.
"Commissar, I found a great article today. I'm sure you'll say it's great when you see it!"
Minister Li, who followed her in, chuckled.
Everyone knows their Political Commissar Han. Even if an article is rated 90 points, he can still find a lot of shortcomings in it and give it only 80 points.
Anyway, there is always room for improvement.
Han Changchu had originally thought so. He took the manuscript from Director Huang with a smile and asked the attendant to pour tea for the two of them.
"You guys take a seat first, I'll take a look at this article first."
A few minutes later, Minister Li was surprised to hear his old superior actually take a long breath.
Then he heard a comment that made him unable to believe his ears.
“This article is amazing!”
"Hahaha, I feel like it says everything I wanted to say, and it's very insightful!"
After hearing Political Commissar Han’s evaluation, not only Minister Li, but even Director Huang who recommended the article was stunned.
Is this still the Han Changchu and Han Da Zhengwei who were extremely strict with article reports in the past?
Han Changchu seemed to be touched by this article, and he was very excited when reading it.
"If you two have no objection, I think this time's first prize—no, special prize!—will go to this guy... Comrade Zhang Hongcheng, right? Give it to him!"
Minister Li and Director Huang looked at each other.
Now that you've said that, what else can they say?
But what makes them even more unexpected is that something unexpected will happen soon.
An hour later, Han Changchu, with a flushed face, called the two into his office again.
"Didn't the Corps' Political Department issue a document last month regarding the selection of articles on the theme of 'Responding to the Call to Build the Frontier, Educated Youth Soldiers Unafraid of Hardships'? All divisions are taking it very seriously!"
"I've read the articles of the seedlings you selected. They're interesting, but they still lack some substance and life."
"Well, I want to see what Xiao Zhang from the 39th Regiment can write."
"You two should inform Tao Ju and Li Guangjin separately and ask the young man in their troupe to try this theme as well."
"If it's good, we'll be flexible. If it's not satisfactory, we'll just treat it as an exercise."
Minister Li felt a little embarrassed when he heard this.
"Political Commissar, this time we're selecting those who are up for promotion, but I just checked this Zhang Hongcheng, and he's only been here for a little over a month."
Han Changchu smiled and lowered his head to write without answering Minister Li.
Minister Li and Director Huang knew very well that no one except the division commander could persuade Han Changchu about his decision.
Sure enough, Han Changchu waved his hand after he finished writing.
"That's it."
......
In the square of the fifth company.
Zhang Hongcheng stood alone in front of the company commander and instructor.
The applause from all the educated youth in the company never stopped.
"The only special prize in the entire division!" Captain Yan said in a booming voice, "It actually went to our Fifth Company. Everyone, applaud again and celebrate for Comrade Zhang Hongcheng!!!"
The educated youths, who had a strong sense of honor in the group, applauded vigorously again with flushed faces.
Zhang Hongcheng was wearing a big red flower and smiling modestly.
The division gave him a certificate of merit, 50 kilograms of food coupons and a rare calfskin notebook.
The regiment also rewarded him with twenty industrial coupons.
The battalion headquarters directly sent ten kilograms of peanuts and five kilograms of fruit candy.
The instructor also rewarded him with a hero pen on behalf of the company!
For Zhang Hongcheng, his biggest gain from this special prize was not the supplies and certificates, but the four words used by the division headquarters to evaluate him - "politically and politically strong"!
It was precisely because of these four words that a few days later Zhang Hongcheng was notified to go to the Party School of the regiment headquarters for three days of full-time study.
This is a prelude to his conversion from a candidate D member to a regular member.
The second-in-command of the regiment, the political commissar Li Guangjin, is in charge of the D school curriculum.
On the first day of class, Li Guangjin "added a burden" to Zhang Hongcheng, asking him to try to write an ideological report according to the writing requirements of the Corps Political Department.
Li Guangjin originally thought that Zhang Hongcheng would not be able to produce the first draft until the end of this training at the earliest.
But what he didn't know was that in a chat group in another time and space, a group of old men and women wrote seven or eight articles out of dissatisfaction with each other.
