Travel back to the 80s to farm

Lin Wanqing has been helping out in Shen Jing's factory recently, but Shen Jing has become more and more sleepy, as if he never gets enough sleep.

As time goes by, the New Year is approaching, and people are beginning to prepare various items and foods for the New Year. The streets and alleys are filled with a strong festive atmosphere, with lights and decorations, and a festive atmosphere.

Shen Jing called Mr. Li in the factory and said, "Mr. Li, the New Year is coming soon. I have an idea. I want to hold an annual meeting for the workers in our factory. On the one hand, I want to thank everyone for their hard work over the past year. On the other hand, I also hope to take this opportunity to boost morale and make everyone more motivated next year!" She said in a firm tone.

Old Li shouted excitedly on the other end of the phone: "Great! What a great idea! I fully agree with Jing's decision! This is exactly in line with the saying 'New Year, new scenery, new spirit'! Let's do this, and it will definitely make everyone have a lively New Year! But then again, how should we organize this event specifically?"

Shen Jing's face was filled with smiles, and she said in a relaxed tone: "I think we can first invite the lion dance team from our village to perform in the factory. Imagine those colorful and vivid lions jumping and dancing to the sound of drums and firecrackers. It will definitely attract many people to watch and bring a strong festive atmosphere to the whole factory! In addition, we can also show movies for three consecutive days so that the workers can relax and enjoy a visual feast after work. What do you think of this arrangement?"

Old Li expressed great recognition and support for Shen Jing's plan: "Wow, this plan is simply great! If it can be realized, it will definitely bring unexpected results! In this case, without further ado, I will call Xiao Guo right now and tell him the good news!" After that, Old Li quickly dialed Guo Chenggui's number.

On the other side, Guo Chenggui, who was busy, immediately put down what he was doing and answered the phone when he heard the phone ring. When he learned the details, he promised without hesitation: "No problem, Uncle Li, don't worry! I'll take care of it!" His words were full of confidence and determination. It seemed that as long as he was involved, any problem could be solved.

After Shen Jing and Lao Li discussed the details, they started to act separately. Shen Jing was responsible for contacting the lion dance team and preparing some snacks and candies, while Lao Li went to find Guo Chenggui to set up the venue together.

It was the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month again, and the annual meeting was held as scheduled. Lanterns and ribbons were hung everywhere in the factory, creating a festive and peaceful atmosphere.

"It's so lively!"

"That's right! Once the lanterns and ribbons are hung, the festive atmosphere comes out!" The workers talked while admiring the layout of the factory.

The lion dance team's performance was brilliant and drew cheers from the workers. "This lion dance team is really amazing!"

"Yeah, seeing this makes me want to go up and try it." Everyone was discussing excitedly.

The performance was interspersed with the local opera Liuqin Opera of Qingshui Town, skits directed and performed by the workers, and choruses from various workshops! "Now, please invite our workers to perform the skit "Factory Stories" for everyone." As soon as the host finished speaking, warm applause broke out from the audience.

Shen Jing also asked Lin Erya and her restaurant to come to the factory to prepare a New Year's Eve dinner for everyone. Shen Jing specifically asked them to prepare a buffet for everyone. It was the first time for everyone to hear about buffets. They were very curious and started talking about it. "Buffet? What's this new thing?"

"Just take whatever you want and eat as much as you want!"

"That's great, I must eat more!" The workers were excitedly looking forward to the start of the New Year's Eve dinner.

Shen Jing gently stroked her bulging pregnant belly with one hand, supported her waist with the other hand, and slowly walked up to the podium.

She smiled, her eyes revealing great joy and kindness: "Dear employees, brothers and sisters! On the occasion of the Chinese New Year, on behalf of all members of Jingmei Food Processing Factory, I would like to extend my most sincere blessings to everyone - I wish you all a happy New Year in advance!"

Shen Jing paused and continued, "Tonight is a special day for all of us. Looking back on the past year, I sincerely thank every colleague for their hard work and unremitting efforts at their jobs. It is because of you that our factory can achieve such excellent results."

Then, Shen Jing raised her voice and announced: "To celebrate this wonderful moment, the factory will show three consecutive days of wonderful movies tonight! I hope everyone can invite relatives and friends to come and watch and share this joy together. However, it should be noted that outsiders are not allowed to enter and exit the workshop at will. Please be sure to abide by the regulations and convey reminders to each other. Thank you again for your understanding and cooperation!"

As soon as the words fell, there was a warm applause from the audience. The employees' faces were filled with excited smiles, and they all expressed their anticipation for this good news. Shen Jing stood on the podium, looking at everyone with gentle and firm eyes, her heart full of longing and confidence for the future.

In the evening, everyone sat together to watch a movie, laughing constantly. This annual meeting not only made the workers feel the strong flavor of the New Year, but also enhanced the relationship between each other. Shen Jing looked at everyone's happy faces and felt full of a sense of accomplishment. She knew that the factory would be more prosperous next year.

Old Li tugged at the corner of Shen Jing's clothes and asked in a low voice: "Hey, Jing girl, are we still having a lucky draw this year?"

Shen Jing smiled slightly and said softly, "Of course, Old Li. And this year's prizes are more generous than last year's!"

When Old Li heard this, his eyes lit up and he quickly asked, "What prizes are there? Tell me quickly!"

Shen Jing kept the secret and said, "You'll know when the lottery is held. But I can reveal one thing: the first prize is a mysterious big prize!" The workers became excited when they heard this, and they all guessed what the mysterious big prize was.

At this time, the movie ended and the lights came on. The host walked onto the stage and announced the start of the lucky draw. The workers rushed to the lucky draw box eagerly, hoping to win the grand prize. The lucky draw went smoothly, and everyone won their favorite prizes, with happy smiles on their faces.

Finally, it was time to reveal the mystery prize. The host said excitedly: "This year's mystery prize winner is... Wang Daniu!"

Wang Daniu was surprised. He couldn't believe that he had won the grand prize. Shen Jing walked up to the stage, handed him a big red envelope, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Daniu. This is your reward. I hope you like it."

Daniu was so excited that he could not speak and could only nod his head. After the lucky draw, the workers rushed to the stage and took photos with Shen Jing. The annual meeting ended successfully with laughter and joy, and everyone was looking forward to a more exciting annual meeting next year.
