Chapter 179 Visitors from the Capital
☆
After Chen Zuoxian finished communicating with Zhao Pengfei, he took two colleagues and left the capital and headed for Qushui County.
They first went to the county party committee, found He Zeshan, and showed him his letter of introduction and work ID. "We want to meet Comrade Xie Yun. We have some questions to discuss with her."
He Zeshan hadn't expected this group of people to come here to kill him. He couldn't figure out their thoughts and didn't dare to rashly reveal the truth, so he said, "This is easy. You guys stay in the guesthouse first. I'll send someone to call Xiao Xie."
Chen Zuoxian asked him, "Does Secretary He know Comrade Xie?"
"I know her. We're very familiar with each other. Xiao Xie is the propaganda officer for Taoyuan Commune and often comes to the county to report on her work. She often publishes articles in our Dongsheng Daily, and her writing is very good."
Chen Zuoxian thought, as expected, she didn't do the research, she was in charge of publicity, so there was no point in calling her here.
"Secretary He, please don't bother Comrade Xie. She's so busy with work, so let's go see her. We're here to discuss technical issues related to the steel industry with her."
He observed He Zeshan as he spoke, finding him not at all surprised, clearly well-informed. "How long has Comrade Xie been engaged in this research? She's truly remarkable, having tackled so many difficult problems on her own. She's even more accomplished than our Iron and Steel Research Institute."
He Zeshan smiled and said, "Xiao Xie is quite amazing."
Chen Zuoxian: “…”
What was going on? How could he accept the compliment so complacently? Was his deduction wrong, or was it really the poor and lower-middle peasants who created the miracle?
"We haven't heard of Comrade Xie before. Which university did she graduate from?"
He Zeshan waved his hand: "She graduated from our Qushui No. 1 Middle School and didn't have time to go to college. She is just 20 years old."
Chen Zuoxian: “…”
It seems he was right. It wasn't her who did it. There must be someone behind it. What's wrong with this Secretary He? Does he know that there is someone behind her?
"She's really young and promising. She can defeat all of us by herself."
He Zeshan smiled and said, "She is not alone, she has a team."
Chen Zuoxian: “!!!”
He said it, he said it!
He Zeshan looked at Chen Zuoxian and his two companions whose eyes suddenly lit up, and then said, "Behind her are tens of thousands of poor and lower-middle peasants!"
Chen Zuoxian: “…”
I feel like Secretary He is playing tricks on me.
Or maybe he is as cautious as they are.
Chen Zuoxian sighed and said, "No matter what, she's made achievements, which is a great thing. Our country is poor and weak, and there is a great need for talent. Comrade Xie is a rare talent. We came here this time in the hope that she can come with us to work in Beijing."
He Zeshan also sighed and said, "Yes, the country needs talents. We also sincerely hope that every talent can be reused."
The two sides went back and forth, testing each other. At this point, they were basically sure that the other party had no bad intentions, respected knowledge, and respected talents.

He Zeshan was having a friendly exchange with the experts. His secretary immediately called Xie Yun and said, "Xiao Xie, someone's coming from Beijing, from the Ministry of Metallurgy, an expert in the steel industry. He wants to see you and discuss some technical issues with you. Please come over quickly."
"Okay, I'll do it as soon as possible."
Xie Yun hung up the phone and made a preliminary assessment of the current situation based on the information provided by his secretary. He finally decided to take Pan Changqing with him.
Pan Changqing was unsure, "Can I go?"
"Why not?"
After Xie Yun spruced him up, the elegant old man Pan Changqing suddenly became a real poor and lower-middle peasant.
"Let's go, Lao Pan."
Pan Changqing: “…”
Others: “…”
You know what, it does look like that.
The commune sent a tractor to take Xie Yun and Pan Changqing over.
The two went straight to He Zeshan's office.
Chen Zuoxian and the other two are still there.
He Zeshan asked them to go to the guesthouse to settle down first, but they refused to go and waited there, saying that they could only rest in peace after meeting Xie Yun.
Xie Yun knocked on the door and said, "Secretary He, you're looking for me."
"Xiao Xie is here, come quickly. Let me introduce him to you."
After testing each other for a long time, he was tired. "These three are from Beijing. Comrade Chen Zuoxian, Comrade Jiang Lanyu, and Comrade Gao Siming."
Xie Yun shook hands with the three men one by one and said with a smile, "Comrade Chen, Comrade Jiang, Comrade Gao, hello, welcome to Qushui County."
Chen Zuoxian smiled and said, "Comrade Xie, we have received the research data you sent us and have basically completed the verification. Your research is excellent. We came here because of your reputation and hope to communicate with you in person."
Xie Yun smiled and said, "I also hope to have the opportunity to learn from you all and complement your strengths. That research was not completed by me alone; it is the result of the wisdom of many people."
She introduced Pan Changqing to everyone: "This is our old comrade Pan from our Poor and Lower-Middle Peasants Research Institute."
Pan Changqing took a step forward and greeted everyone: "Hello, I'm Lao Pan."
Chen Zuoxian was stunned. He knew this voice. It was Professor Pan Changqing. He had attended Professor Pan's academic lectures and had discussions with him before!
Oh my God, Professor Pan was standing right in front of him, but he didn’t recognize him!
"Pan, pan, pan..."
Pan Changqing couldn't help but say, "Why are you stuttering again?"
Chen Zuoxian almost cried, "Teacher Pan, are you okay?"
Jiang Lanyu and Gao Siming also came over and looked at Pan Changqing eagerly.
Pan Changqing smiled and said, "I'm fine. I've been here for over a year now, undergoing ideological transformation under the leadership of the poor and lower-middle peasants, and I've made rapid progress."
Chen Zuoxian blinked, holding back his tears, and said with a smile, "That's good! We look forward to your greater progress."
It turns out that Professor Pan was here, that makes sense.
He Zeshan was relieved when he saw the scene before him. He left the office and left the space to these experts.
Pan Changqing asked them, "Why are you here? I thought Xiao Xie would go to the capital."
Chen Zuoxian asked, "Is it okay for Xiao Xie to go to the capital?"
Does she really understand?
Pan Changqing nodded. "Xiao Xie is very knowledgeable about this research, so it's no problem for her to go to Beijing to make a report. But I understand your perspective. Thank you."
It's all for safety reasons, he understands!
Jiang Lanyu smiled and said, "We are particularly interested in this poor and lower-middle peasant research team. We also wanted to come and take a look, hoping to establish long-term cooperation. This trip was not in vain."
Gao Siming also said: "That's right, we really came here!"
