Chapter 275 Live and Work
☆
In the evening, Qian Gaoyun finished a day's filming and reunited with her parents. She held Qian Daguang in her left hand and Shao Xiang in her right hand, and was as happy as a child.
Ren Xiuzhen was extremely envious.
Whether in her previous life or this life, she has never received such pure family love. Xiao Gao is so happy, I envy her!
But she is also very good. When she came to this world, she gained a group of sincere little sisters.
☆
The next day, while Qian Gaoyun was filming, Qian Daguang drove to Taoyuan Commune to meet his old friends and visit the Academy of Sciences building which was under construction.
He told Xie Yun, "When I retire, I will come here to live and volunteer for you. I will live here in my old age."
Xie Yun said, "Come, come, you are all welcome to retire here. We will build the best nursing home in the country in the future, and everyone should come. Let the young people go out to work hard, and the elderly can come here to spend their twilight years in peace."
Pan Changqing said: "Why spend my old age in comfort? I must fight for my country until the last moment of my life!"
Xie Yun: “…”
Qian Daguang: “…”
Pan Changqing said: "No, you two really want to spend your old age in peace, right?"
Xie Yun asked, "Don't you want to?"
Pan Changqing shook his head. "No, I just want to work. Scientific research is endless. If we don't pay attention, we will fall behind others. We can't afford to slack off for even a moment. Not to mention that we are already behind, even if we surpass them in the future, if we slack off even a little, we may be overtaken! Our country has not yet built a completely independent and complete industrial system. We have a long way to go, children!"
Xie Yun said, "Let's combine work and rest. I tell you, proper rest and relaxation can make your mind sharper, just like the saying goes, sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood!"
We should enjoy life!
"Don't try to fool me. The more you use your brain, the more powerful it becomes. When I get tired of studying machine tools, I'll go study anti-missiles with Lao Zhao. When I get tired of studying anti-missiles, I'll go study radar with Lao Zheng. When I get tired of studying radar, I'll study integrated circuits with Xiao Zheng. When I get tired again, I'll come back to studying machine tools.
They're just like me! Look at Xiao Zheng, he's only been here a short time, and he's already helped me so much! Without him, we wouldn't have gotten this high-precision CNC machine tool until next year, but now, in two months, it's ready."
Xie Yun remained silent.
Qian Daguang was full of admiration and said, "Compared to you all, I am still far behind. I will learn from you in the future."
Xie Yun: “…”

The filming lasted for a week.
Qian Gaoyun and Zhao Lining were revising the script as they filmed. One moment they thought Shao Xiang should be on screen, as a retired woman helping a suffering woman was truly commendable. Then they thought Xie Yun should be on screen, as the young deputy county magistrate was definitely a great role model.
Xie Yun thought they were both completely out of their minds. The script already had female cadres, female educated youth, and female factory managers; the only character that needed to be added was Shao Xiang, a retired female worker.
Zhao Lining wasn't really confused, he was just too excited.
She's met so many outstanding women here that she barely wants to leave. She chats with the factory's female workers every day, witnessing the resilience and growth of ordinary people, and is deeply moved every day. She feels there's so much material here worth filming.
But she had to go back and finish post-production, arrange the film screening, and there was still a lot to do.
Before leaving, she held Xie Yun's hand, reluctant to leave. "I'll come over again when I have time. I'll make a movie based on you. All the female comrades here deserve to be made into movies. I'm also going to make a movie called 'Women's Director' and another one called 'Female Revolutionary', both of which will use our Secretary Ji as the prototype. I'll come over when I finish this movie. I'll talk to you all in detail."
"You're welcome to come. You can also make a documentary if you have the chance."
There are relatively few video records left from this period, and perhaps Director Zhao can fill this gap a little.
"Great, I had the same idea."
Zhao Lining and she hit it off immediately.
She had never considered making a documentary before, believing the lives of ordinary people were too mundane, even a bit boring. But after arriving in Qushui County, she decided she could make one. Real life is moving enough, and doesn't need any further artistic processing.

After seeing off the film crew, Xie Yun went to Beijing again to assist the First Ministry of Machine Building with automotive technical training. This time, she brought Xie Shen and Li Zhixin with her.
After Li Zhixin arrived in Beijing and settled down, he left the guesthouse and went to a barber shop to get a haircut and shave. When he came back, he was stopped by the guesthouse staff.
"Comrade, please show your letter of introduction and check in."
Li Zhixin: “…”
"Comrade!"
Li Zhixin said, "I just checked in and went out to shave and get a haircut."
Seeing that the waiter still looked puzzled, he added, "I'm the bearded man from before."
The waiter was stunned. "It doesn't look like it!"
Li Zhixin: “…”
There was no choice but to show the room key and letter of introduction he had with him.
The waiter finally believed it.
"I'm sorry, comrade, you've changed so much. I really didn't recognize you."
He looked like a sloppy old man just now, but now he is a spirited, handsome and elegant young comrade. There is really a huge difference. It is not her fault!
Li Zhixin also knew that he couldn't blame others, "It's okay, it's normal not to recognize him."
waiter:"……"
Thank you for your understanding. You are quite self-aware.
When Xie Yun and Xie Shen saw his new look, they both pursed their lips and said nothing.
Li Dongshan said, "Before, when we stood together, you looked like my dad. Now it's finally normal. You see, your face is two different colors now. The area covered by the beard is whiter, and the middle part is a bit darker. It looks quite unique."
After he said this, Xie Yun and Xie Shen, who had been silent the entire time, burst into laughter. His color contrast fully demonstrated the effectiveness of physical sunscreen. Areas that are shielded from the sun for long periods of time will turn white!
Li Zhixin: “…”
He'd discovered this problem, too. Now he just wanted his beard to grow faster, to grow a layer of black stubble.
"Stop laughing!"
"Okay. Hahahaha."
Li Zhixin: “…”

The training was held in the conference room of the First Ministry of Machine Building.
There were only 10 people in total who came to attend the training.
They came from five automobile factories, two people from each factory.
Xie Yun glanced at Minister Liu and Director Yan, pursed his lips, and blinked. "They made it so formal, but they only trained ten people. Why even come to Beijing? Why not just send them all to Qushui County?"
Minister Liu told her, "Don't underestimate the small number of people. Almost all the companies in the country that can produce cars are here."
Xie Yun: “…”
Yes, there are only a few companies in the country that can produce cars.
When these top engineers in the automotive field saw the three young teachers, their faces showed subtle expressions. They were a little bit unconvinced, but they had to believe it. After all, the minister and the director were there, and they would not joke with them about this matter.
After Xie Yun and the other two gave them a lesson, everyone was convinced.
There were both theoretical and practical lessons. Yan Hanzhou even brought in an old engine for them to disassemble for on-site instruction.
