Courtyard House: A Great Musician! Red Songs Resound Worldwide

Several minutes had passed, but everyone was still incredibly excited.

Seeing this, Li Chaoyang could only raise his hand again and press it down, "Alright, alright, everyone, please be quiet for a moment."

"I have something important to announce yet!"

"You can get excited after I've finished speaking..."

Upon hearing this, the crowd gradually quieted down, but at the same time, they all eagerly awaited what would happen next.

Seeing everyone's worried expressions, Li Chaoyang didn't keep them in suspense and solemnly said...

"This cultural center can be reopened."

"But the factory also assigned our publicity department a task."

"That means forming a workers' choir to participate in the annual National Day cultural performance!"

"What! The factory is going to form a choir?" Everyone gasped in shock upon hearing this news!

We're all long-time employees of this factory.

I've never seen a steel rolling mill place so much importance on recreational activities.

Now, not only has the opening of the cultural center been approved, but a workers' choir is also to be formed.

This is something unprecedented!

Li Chaoyang, who was interrupted once again, was not annoyed. He raised his hand to calm everyone down and continued, "You heard me right, we are going to form a workers' choir."

"Moreover, the factory specially approved 300 people for full-time training for this purpose!"

"It's all in preparation for participating in this year's National Arts Festival!"

"Therefore, in the coming period, our publicity department will not only reopen the cultural center."

"We also need to work on forming a workers' choir at the same time!"

"There are less than three months until National Day, time is very tight!"

"Three hundred people were selected from the more than 20,000 cadres and employees in the factory, and they also had to undergo choral training."

"It goes without saying that this will be extremely difficult!"

"However, since the factory trusts us so much, we will face this glorious yet arduous task."

"Our publicity department will certainly do its utmost to accomplish this!"

Finally, Li Chaoyang asked with some fervor, "Comrades, do you have confidence?"

"Yes!" the crowd roared in agreement!

The expressions on everyone's faces were even more excited than when they first learned that the cultural center had reopened!

We're going to form a workers' choir and participate in the national arts festival!

This is an unprecedentedly major event in the steel rolling mill!

Everyone was filled with emotion at this moment...

"Truly worthy of being a nationally renowned revolutionary musician..."

"As soon as the section chief arrived, our factory had a choir!"

"Moreover, the factory's current emphasis on arts and culture has undergone a complete transformation!"

"Before, let alone a choir, they didn't even hold singing competitions!"

From Chapter Forty-Eight onwards, no one should stand around doing nothing.

Seeing everyone's confident expressions, Li Chaoyang couldn't help but feel excited too!

Not only did his first act as a new official burn brightly, but it also set off a second fire that was completely ignited!

Today's trip to see the factory manager was truly a lucrative one!

After thinking for a moment, he instructed everyone to begin preparations for these two matters immediately.

Furthermore, whether it's a film projection team or a radio station, each department has to come up with a selection plan.

We need to select the best solution from among them, and once the factory manager approves it, we'll immediately get started.

After everything was explained, everyone got busy, regardless of whether it was true or not.

Li Chaoyang nodded and started to walk out, but he only remembered something when he reached the door...

The factory manager is still waiting for these two application reports.

Turning back, he instructed Deputy Section Chief Qian Jiadong, "By the way, Deputy Section Chief Qian, draft two application reports."

"It's about the cultural center and the choir. It needs to be finished before noon, and then I have to send it to the factory manager for approval."

"If there's not enough time, then make the arrangements."

"Okay, Section Chief, I'll arrange it right away." Qian Jiadong didn't waste any words and nodded seriously.

Li Chaoyang hummed in agreement and turned to leave, but seeing that Qian Jiadong had still chosen a spot near the door instead of moving to the deputy section chief's office inside, he asked with some puzzlement, "By the way, why didn't you move to an office inside?"

Qian Jiadong was taken aback at first, then looked at Li Chaoyang with some difficulty and replied, "Section Chief..."

"This isn't quite right... That office was originally assigned to Section Chief Ma and his colleague."

"They haven't arrived yet, if I move in without permission..."

Upon hearing this, Li Chaoyang frowned and interrupted him, saying, "Alright, you don't need to say anything more."

"They're not coming from the factory office, right? You have the key, don't you?"

"Move in now, and this office will be yours to use from now on."

"Section Chief, the key... is still in Ma..." Qian Jiadong replied with a look of astonishment, his expression becoming tense.

The group, who were still excited, also noticed what was happening here.

Everyone stopped talking and watched cautiously.

"Didn't hand over the keys...?" Li Chaoyang muttered, his face darkening.

"Then let's just change the lock!"

"Since they're not coming to work, what's the point of occupying the office?"

After thinking for a moment, Li Chaoyang's expression turned unusually serious as he said, "And Deputy Section Chief Qian."

"Starting today, you must strictly enforce the attendance policy!"

"From now on, our propaganda department will absolutely not allow anyone to occupy a position without doing their job!"

"Anyone who doesn't come to work on time will be treated as absent!"

"Whether he is a deputy section chief or an ordinary staff member!"

"Yes... Section Chief, I'll arrange it right away." Deputy Section Chief Qian was sweating profusely with nervousness.

He was incredibly glad he'd been sensible enough to come along yesterday...

Otherwise, it might be too late to regret it now!

It's foreseeable that once the choir arrangement is finalized, the publicity department will become a crucial unit in the steel rolling mill, no longer the neglected and idle department it once was...

Those two deputy section chiefs who didn't come must be kicking themselves when they hear this news!

Moreover, the section chief just said that the attendance system would be strictly enforced... This is something they probably didn't expect!

Although working in a factory is considered a secure job, long-term absences are no laughing matter!

The consequences range from minor disciplinary action to serious dismissal.

This is going to be fun!

The fact that the section chief announced this in front of so many people shows that he never intended to keep it a secret.

I wonder how those two will react when they find out?

After all, Section Chief Li has been in office for two days, and those two are still hanging around in the factory office with the former section chief.

They didn't even bother to report for duty; no wonder they're in trouble.

Seeing Li Chaoyang leave, everyone in the office breathed a sigh of relief.

This young section chief, when he gets angry, is actually quite intimidating...

One by one, they started whispering again as soon as Li Chaoyang left...

However, no one seemed to react to Li Chaoyang's earlier suggestion to strictly enforce the attendance system.

They all felt that Li Chaoyang was just using this as an excuse to punish the two disrespectful deputy section chiefs.

However, they were right to think that the strict enforcement of the attendance system was aimed at the two of them.

But at the same time, Xu Damao was also targeted...

Although Li Chaoyang is a principled person and wouldn't use his position for personal revenge...

But who told Xu Damao to lie and ask for leave... and even fall and get injured on the way back from showing movies in the countryside?

How could Li Chaoyang, the person involved, not know how he was injured?
