Chapter 158 Chapter 158
Everyone must be convinced by Secretary Lai's words. Now that he has stood up to endorse Ye Qing, who among the members present would still question the truth?
The whole place was in an uproar, and everyone looked towards Ye Qing.
Someone immediately responded and shouted:
"Oh my god, the two sows raised by our production team were bred by Ye Zhiqing's apprentice, and it seems that they used this innovative technology!"
"Doesn't that mean that this year our production team will also add dozens of new piglets?"
"Dozens of them! My God! In previous years, we were lucky to raise a dozen or so. If we could raise dozens of them, our production team wouldn't have to worry about having meat to eat during the Chinese New Year!"
"Our production team also fed three sows!"
“…”
The members of several production brigades in the surrounding area were suddenly excited and started talking at once. Some began to predict how many piglets their own production brigades would produce next, while others worried whether the purchasing station would increase the number of task pigs and directly take away all the pigs that the production brigades had raised with great effort. Some of them were already considering whether they should go to their respective production team leaders to apply for working on the pig farm.
In short, the huge drying field suddenly became lively, and many people even surrounded Ye Qing to ask various questions. In short, everyone was very curious about Ye Qing's scientific breeding technology.
Ye Qing was not impatient. No matter who asked, as long as they were interested in this technology, she would explain everything she knew. When answering the members' questions, she also tried her best to use language that everyone could understand to ensure that everyone present could understand.
However, even so, many members are still confused, which makes Ye Qing realize that it is a long way to go for the rural people to master this technology. At least the most important prerequisite is to eliminate knowledge illiteracy. If they cannot even do the most basic reading and writing, then the promotion and dissemination of this technology will definitely encounter unprecedented difficulties and resistance.
But this is not a problem that Ye Qing needs to consider. She is only responsible for the research and development of breeding technology. How to develop this technology to thousands of households is a problem that the higher-ups should worry about.
No matter what, being on TV is definitely a good thing, and the scientific breeding technology has already made the front page headlines of Jicheng TV and major newspapers, which shows that the higher-ups attach great importance to and recognize this technology. Ye Qing naturally doesn't have to worry about the subsequent promotion of the technology.
Sure enough, within two days, the county took action. Someone from the Agricultural Bureau came the next day. Director Hao personally went to Kaoshantun to discuss with Ye Qing and expressed his desire to form a 20-person breeding technology team to learn this scientific breeding technology from Ye Qing, and Ye Qing would give lectures and training to these technical personnel.
Ye Qing also wanted to train a group of professional and technical talents as soon as possible and pass on the skills she had, so that she could directly become the boss. This is what she discussed with Zhao Yuliang. She let Zhao Yuliang select a few suitable candidates and she would be responsible for technical training. When these people mastered the technology, she would not have to be tied down by the military farm. In the future, the military farm would be able to breed and deliver babies by itself. Even if the breeding is expanded in the future, even if Ye Qing is not present, the farm will be able to handle all the tedious affairs by itself.
Adhering to the idea that a single sheep is still a sheep, and a flock of sheep are still released, Ye Qing agreed to Director Hao's request.
Director Hao was very efficient in his work. In just two or three days, he had already selected the first batch of students. Ye Qing was busy preparing lesson plans and designing simulation teaching methods. She had just finished preparing the teaching content and was about to notify the farm and the Agriculture Bureau that the class could start, but on the first night, Ye Qing suddenly received a call that she had never expected.
The call came from the Secretary's Office of Zhongbeihai, informing her that she would leave the next day for the Jicheng Grand Hall. Three days later, the old leader would meet with her and ask her to report on related work.
Ye Qing was so dumbfounded that she couldn't believe what she heard until the moment the call was hung up. If communication hadn't been so underdeveloped at that time, she would have thought it was a scam call.
But the fact is, the call was real, because that night, someone from the provincial capital came and not only brought her a train ticket, but also personally escorted her to the train station. Ye Qing packed her things in a hurry and was sent on the train in a daze overnight.
This time was different from last year when she had just gone to the countryside to work as a production team member. At that time, the street office prepared hard seat tickets for these educated youth from the countryside, but this time, the provincial capital sent her a high-end soft sleeper that went directly to Jicheng. Moreover, she was not going alone. The provincial capital specially sent two cadres, one male and one female, to accompany her. Although she was not mentally prepared, the whole trip was very smooth and she did not have to worry about anything the whole time. After a day and a night, she arrived smoothly at Jicheng West Railway Station.
As soon as I got off the bus, I saw Hang Tingfang waiting at the exit outside the station with a sign in his hand.
This sister has indeed worked in the newspaper industry in Jicheng for so many years. She is well-informed. I don't know where she heard that Ye Qing was coming, but she immediately went to the train station to wait for him.
After getting out of the train station, there was already a car waiting outside. It was a car specially dispatched by the Ministry of Agriculture. After getting on the car, several people went straight to Chang'an Avenue. A special guesthouse had been arranged there, providing one-stop services for food and accommodation. All of this was reimbursed by the higher-ups, so Ye Qing didn't need to pay out of his own pocket.
Although Ye Qing came to Jicheng in a hurry this time, she asked Wu Yongbing for a week's vacation, which means that she can stay in Jicheng for three to five days.
The work report to the leader is scheduled for the day after tomorrow at 3 pm. Ye Qing can arrange the rest of the time freely.
Hang Tingfang saw that Ye Qing had other plans, so she immediately said:
"You have to keep your time for me the day after tomorrow morning. I'll treat you to a meal and introduce you to some people."
Ye Qing was a little curious: "Meet someone? Who?"
Hang Tingfang smiled and said, "You may have forgotten. Didn't you say before that a publishing house editor had contacted you? I have already inquired for you during this period of time. This publishing house is still very sincere and is willing to provide you with a lot of welfare subsidies. In addition, they have received a larger number of printing and distribution. Their original plan was to print 50,000 copies for the first time. As a result, you have made such a big fuss recently, appearing on TV and on the headlines of newspapers. People are talking about you everywhere. Even the phones of several of our newspapers have been blown up, not to mention the TV station."
"So I guess that the publishing house may want to take advantage of this opportunity to finalize your novel as soon as possible. According to this situation, the first print run of your book may even increase. I think it is better to do it sooner rather than later. Since you are in Jicheng this time, why not just ask him to come out for a face-to-face interview? What do you think?"
Ye Qing certainly had no objection.
Hang Tingfang added: "There are also several people in charge of the editorial, interview and distribution departments of our Women's Newspaper. I will introduce them to you. We all want to see what you look like in person. We are all looking forward to hearing that you are coming to Jicheng."
Hang Tingfang's newspaper was a makeshift team she set up herself. It was a unit with no money and no future, so few people were willing to work for her. She didn't want to recruit some laymen who knew nothing, so she had to poach people from other sister units. After a lot of effort, she recruited seven or eight people and finally managed to open the stall.
But seven or eight people are obviously not enough for a newspaper, so the proofreading, revision, typesetting and editing work of the "Women's Daily" are currently done in turns by these seven or eight people. Basically, everyone has multiple jobs and is treated like a hard-working ox by Hang Tingfang.
"Fortunately, we have survived the most difficult months. Once you make some noise here, the Propaganda Committee will pay much attention to the application I submitted. It will not be long before our newspaper's circulation increases. As long as the weekly becomes a daily, the government will certainly allocate funds, and the welfare benefits will also increase. The popularity of the Women's Newspaper will continue to rise, and it will be much easier to recruit talents."
When talking about this, Hang Tingfang looked at Ye Qing with eyes that were almost like idol worship.
Hang Tingfang really admires this little girl from the bottom of his heart.
It has only been a few months since she first went to the countryside for an interview, and this girl has already gotten into a lot of trouble. The key is that each time she does something, it's bigger than the last. No one dares to think or do something like her. But she is not only brave, but can also get things done. As long as it is something she has conceived, she has never failed to realize it because of her bragging.
Especially this time, the scientific breeding project that Ye Qing came up with, even a layman who has never farmed or raised pigs would be dumbfounded and jaw-dropping after hearing that a sow can give birth to twenty babies in one litter.
The telephone at the Kaoshantun health station had just been installed, and not many people outside knew about it, so not many people called Kaoshantun directly.
But things are different in Jicheng.
Because the newspaper founded by Hang Tingfang had the closest relationship with Ye Qing, Ye Qing's novels were serialized in the "Women's Newspaper", and when the newspaper was first printed, Hang Tingfang gave Ye Qing such a large page space, so when Ye Qing was mentioned, the first thing many people thought of was to go to the "Women's Newspaper" to inquire about inside information.
As a result, ever since the news came out, the Women's Daily has been receiving calls every day. They are all people from all walks of life asking about the scientific breeding technology developed by Ye Qing. There are also several units specializing in pig breeding who want to recruit Ye Qing to be their technical instructor with a high salary, or to invite Ye Qing to take classes and training. They found Hang Tingfang and hoped that she could help to make connections and promised her a lot of benefits. Some even came to the newspaper to find her directly. In short, they all came up with all kinds of tricks and had all kinds of crooked ideas, which made Hang Tingfang laugh and cry and feel helpless.
Although this incident is funny, it also shows how popular Ye Qing is now.
Hang Tingfang knew very well that the readership base of the Women's Newspaper relied on Ye Qing's circle of fans, and that the rapid development of the newspaper, with the green light from the higher-ups, was also due to Ye Qing's influence. Although she was the founder of the newspaper, it was Ye Qing who truly injected vitality into the Women's Newspaper.
Therefore, Hang Tingfang wanted to take Ye Qing to visit her newspaper, hoping that the other veterans of the newspaper would have the same clear understanding and recognition of Ye Qing, the uncrowned hero, as she did.
