Chapter 646 Ji Qing: I am the one who picks peaches
What Ji Qing didn't expect was that the disaster relief work in Tangcheng had not yet been completed, and he welcomed the reporter from the Cantonese Daily.
The reporter learned that the Five Star Pharmaceutical Factory has already sent two batches of medicines to Tangcheng, both of which are medicines that are in short supply in the disaster area.
The reporter said that as far as they know, no one has placed an order for these drugs, so who is paying for the production of the drugs?
During the interview, the reporter from Cantonese Daily asked various questions, went to the medicinal fields planted by the members on the mountain to take photos, and randomly interviewed several members and workers from the pharmaceutical factory.
He also pointedly asked them what they thought of Ji Qing, the factory director.
All the comments were positive. The reporter from Cantonese Daily was very clear about this. They did not give any advance notice before coming to interview us, and they just wanted to be honest.
Unexpectedly, after asking the members, workers and educated youth, they all spoke highly of Ji Qing.
Ji Qing also allowed them to ask questions without any obstruction.
During the final interview with Ji Qing, when he heard that the Five Star Pharmaceutical Factory had grown to its current size, he asked if he felt it was hard work and that he had made great contributions.
After hearing this, Ji Qing glanced at the reporter and felt that this guy must be here to cause trouble.
He smiled and said, "The biggest contributor to the Five Star Pharmaceutical Factory's current scale is not me, but the first factory director and our Secretary Zhou. It was the two of them who overcame public opinion and started the factory."
Then Ji Qing talked about the difficulties in setting up the factory and striving for the production line.
After saying this, he added: "The second is the workers in the pharmaceutical factory."
"It's because of their concerted efforts that the pharmaceutical factory is what it is today."
"There are also members who grow medicinal herbs. They are all great contributors to the development of Five Star Pharmaceutical Factory into the scale it is today."
The Cantonese reporter did not expect that Ji Qing would take all the credit for others and not mention himself at all.
He asked: "Do you think you have made any contribution?"
Ji Qing chuckled when he heard this: "I am the one who picks peaches."
"As for whether I have made any contribution, it is not for me to judge. If you ask me, I definitely think I have done my best and I think I have made some contribution."
"If you want to hear the real evaluation, you should ask the workers in the factory. Their evaluation is the most pertinent."
The reporter from Guangdong could not help laughing when he heard this: "Director Ji, you consider yourself a peach picker. From this sentence, we can see that you think highly of Comrade Yu Wanqing, the first director of the pharmaceutical factory."
Ji Qing was stunned for a moment and looked at the reporter: "Didn't I just say that she and Secretary Zhou were the initiators of the pharmaceutical factory and the biggest contributors."
"Let me put it this way. Director Yu is not only the greatest contributor to the pharmaceutical factory, but also my mentor."
"You heard me right. She is my mentor. She brought me up single-handedly. When many people doubted my ability at the beginning, it was she and Secretary Zhou who recognized me. It was also Director Yu who took me with him and taught me step by step. Later on, when I encountered problems I didn't understand, I still called her for advice."
The Guangdong reporter also asked Ji Qing some questions about the future development of the pharmaceutical factory and who paid for the anti-inflammatory and hemostatic drugs sent to the earthquake zone.
Upon learning that it was Director Yu and his wife who emptied their family savings to make this happen, the Cantonese reporters were left with nothing but admiration for Yu Wanqing.
Ji Qing said: "In addition to Director Yu and his wife, members of the Five Star Brigade and workers at the pharmaceutical factory knew about this and they also donated money."
Ji Qing took out a notebook with a clear list of the donations this time: "Please take a look."
The Cantonese reporter flipped to the end and found that a small five-star team actually received more than 6,000 yuan in donations.
He asked, "Why are there so many people?"
Ji Qing said: "All members of the Five Star Brigade donated money, and those working outside also donated money."
The reporter from Guangdong was shocked: "Everyone donated?"
Ji Qing nodded: "Yes, including the babies who were just born. Their parents also donated in the name of their children."
"They said that when encountering such a tragic event, everyone should let their children participate in the rescue. Even if it's just a few dollars per person, they have done their best."
Also participated.
The Cantonese reporter was shocked by the answer. The newborn baby also donated money.
He took a look and saw that some people donated three yuan, five yuan, and the most donated was one hundred yuan.
Ji Qing pointed to a name and said, "This comrade is already 60 years old. His wife passed away during the famine, and he has no children. He usually works or goes into the mountains to collect herbs. He donated 100 yuan. When he took it, he said something. He said, "I have been protected by the motherland for most of my life and have lived a peaceful life. Now I finally have the opportunity to help other compatriots."
The Cantonese reporter walked into the Five-Star Team with curiosity, and when he left, both he and the photographer were shocked.
The next morning, the Cantonese Daily and Cantonese TV reported the incident.
For a time, Ji Qing, the Five-Star Pharmaceutical Factory, and the Five-Star Brigade became household names in Guangdong Province.
This incident soon alarmed the leaders. During the meeting, they specially praised all the members of the Five-Star Brigade and the workers of the pharmaceutical factory, and also took Secretary Zhou, Ji Qing, and Yu Wanqing out for a walk.
Other local stations learned about this incident and began to report it in local newspapers.
Shanghai Ji Family:
It was a rare occasion for the Ji family to get together for a meal. Father Ji asked his sons about their recent work and life. The family talked and laughed, and it was very warm and harmonious.
Ji Jingjing, the youngest daughter of the Ji family, was watching TV with several nephews and nieces. When the news time came, the first thing reported was about Tang Cheng, followed by a report on the Five Star Pharmaceutical Factory in Nanfu County, Guangdong Province. When the reporter mentioned Ji Qing's name, Ji Jingjing suddenly raised her head and looked at the TV.
A number of familiar yet unfamiliar faces appeared before her eyes. She pointed at the TV for a long time before she came to her senses.
"Mom and Dad, it's the little brother. The one reported in the news is the little brother."
After hearing this, the people from the Ji family quickly walked to the TV and just happened to see Ji Qing sitting in the office being interviewed.
They hadn't seen each other for eight years, let alone had any contact. The Ji family even suspected that the son had died in the countryside.
Ji's father also accepted the fact that he only had two sons and one daughter, but he never expected that one day, his son who had disappeared for more than eight years would suddenly appear in their sight in this way.
On TV, the reporter from the Cantonese Daily had finished asking about work and was about to end the interview. He stood up and said with a smile, "Director Ji, I heard that your wife is pregnant. You will be a father soon. Congratulations."
Ji Qing, who is in his twenties, tall and slender, calm and reserved, smiled and shook hands with the Cantonese reporter: "Yes, I will be a father by the end of the year."
"We are all looking forward to the birth of your child. Children are the hope of the new generation of China."
Ji Qing nodded: "Thank you, my wife and I are also looking forward to the arrival of the child."
"I think, whether it is a son or a daughter, my wife and I will do everything we can to love and protect him, let him grow up happily, and hope that he will become a brick in the construction of the motherland when he grows up."
Move it wherever it is needed!
Ji Qing said: "This kind of protection is a kind of inheritance. The country and the family, the father and the son, are passed down from generation to generation and guarded from generation to generation."
The reporter from Guangdong nodded: "That's right, the torch is passed on forever."
This refers to the small family, but also to the big family of China.
