Movie Variety Show: Starting from a New World

"Except for those that can earn foreign exchange, most of the factories nowadays are in a semi-shutdown state. However, the steel mill has one good thing, that is, Li Huaide can control the situation. Moreover, as the leading factory in Peiping, the steel mill has a very strong armed force, and no one will easily cause trouble at the steel mill. That's why I let Pingping go back to work at the steel mill! I didn't expect that there would be so many bad things happening in this steel mill!" Zhao Cheng sighed.

"Don't be fooled by the seemingly calm appearance of the steel mill. In fact, the internal struggle is very fierce! And I heard that Lou Bancheng suddenly escaped before the storm started, and even took Xu Damao with him! Now Xu Damao's house has been sold by his father!" Pingping said.

"Really? That kid Xu Damao actually ran away? But if Lou Xiao'e wants to leave, there's nothing Xu Damao can do but follow her, since they have a child together!" Zhao Cheng said.

"Yard No. 95 is even more lively now than when we lived there. Yi Zhonghai relies on his status as an eighth-level worker in the factory, and is respected as the "uncle" by everyone in the compound! He wants to get involved in every household's affairs. If it weren't for Liu Haizhong, a seventh-level worker, who checks and balances him, the two of them would often fight in the compound. I guess now Courtyard No. 95 has become Yi Zhonghai's one-man show." Pingping had always looked down on Yi Zhonghai, and she looked down on him even more this time.

"Doesn't Yi Zhonghai already have Yi Yang? Why is he still doing such immoral things?" Zhao Cheng was very puzzled. How could such a thing happen?

"It is because of Yi Yang that Yi Zhonghai did this! He now just wants to cultivate his prestige in the compound by doing these things to pave the way for his children. Everyone in the compound has to call him "Uncle". What kind of prestige does that mean? Then Yi Yang will be able to walk sideways in the compound?" Tian Dan said.

"What? Do you mean that Yi Zhonghai should stay in the compound to keep Wang so that everyone can respect him and take care of Yi Yang? Does it mean that Yi Zhonghai will not live for many days? Is he going to die?" Zhao Cheng asked curiously.

"Brother Cheng, you are so funny. Yi Zhonghai is about to die, but he can't bear to die! A few days ago, the machine in the factory broke down. After it was repaired, it was required to start the test machine. Yi Zhonghai insisted on letting Jia Dongxu do it. As a result, the machine failure was not completely eliminated. Parts flew out when they were being processed. If Jia Dongxu hadn't reacted quickly, I guess Jia Dongxu's head would have been blown off at that time!" Pingping said with a pout.

"There's such a thing? It seems Comrade Zhong Hai is really lucky!"

"Well, he's really lucky. I heard that the part flew out and directly pierced into the wood of the roof! Do you think the force could be small?" Pingping felt quite scared when she said this. It turns out that locksmithing is so dangerous.

"How is He Daqing? How are he and Qin Huairu doing?" Zhao Cheng suddenly asked.

"I do know a little about this. There's a kitchen helper named Liu Lan in the back kitchen. She's like a loud speaker and knows everything. She's also very willing to inquire about all kinds of information. It was she who told He Daqing about my job at the steel rolling mill. He Daqing even went to the warehouse to ask me where I had moved to, but I didn't tell him. He told him to just go to the office if he wanted to find me!" Pingping said.

"This Liu Lan seems to be Li Huaide's secretary, right? Li Huaide is not afraid that she will reveal their relationship." Zhao Cheng said with a smile.

"Liu Lan is just willing to inquire about the information. She is not stupid! But this matter is basically semi-public information in the steel rolling mill! Almost everyone in the steel rolling mill knows about it." Pingping said.

"Where are He Daqing and Qin Huairu?"

"Qin Huairu has calmed down now, but Jia Dongxu has become even more unscrupulous since his divorce from Wang Yuzhi. He watches Qin Huairu wash clothes in the yard all day long, and occasionally even goes to find secret doors! He has really let himself go!" Pingping told Zhao Cheng the news she got.

"Something's going to happen sooner or later! Qin Huairu won't suffer any loss! He Daqing is lucky that he hasn't been sucked dry by Qin Huairu yet!"

"What? That's because He Daqing simply ignores her! I heard from Liu Lan that He Daqing would rather go to the young widow in the factory to solve the problem when he needs it, rather than touch Qin Huairu!" Pingping said.

"He Daqing can still find a young widow? And she works in the factory?" Zhao Cheng asked curiously.

"There is a widow in the factory who has a difficult life and can only do these things. She is just a miserable person!" Pingping sighed.

The few of them talked for a while and then went to rest. The next day, Zhao Cheng went to work after sending his child to school. At this time, Li Kuiyong was already waiting for him at the police station.

"When did you come?" Zhao Cheng walked into the room, put down his hat, and sat opposite the desk and said.

"Uncle Zhao, I just got here!" Li Kuiyong said a little excitedly. He didn't sleep much last night and even had dark circles under his eyes!

"What do people say at home?"

"My parents agree, and even my brother and sister-in-law agree. After all, this is an honor! We all agree! Uncle Zhao, can I really join the army?" Li Kuiyong said excitedly.

"If I tell you to go, you can definitely go, but you must be prepared to endure hardships. This is not a joke! Because once you get there, you will need to work harder than others! And these efforts may cost you more! Are you willing? Or have you thought about it?" Zhao Cheng asked.

"Uncle Zhao, I've thought it over. No matter how hard it takes, I will stick to it!" said Li Kuiyong.

"Okay, I'll contact you. Go back and wait for my news. When the conscription comes, you can go directly for the physical examination! Exercise well during this period and eat more good food! Get a strong body!" Zhao Cheng smiled and told Li Kuiyong to go back and wait for news.

After Li Kuiyong left, Zhao Cheng started to call his comrades. When Zhang Chengmin received Zhao Cheng's call, he knew that the company commander must have something for him to do.

"Company commander, how come you are so free?" Zhang Chengmin's voice came from the phone.

"I'll send you a soldier!" Zhao Cheng said directly.

"Really? Is this soldier still the same as Weidong?" Zhang Chengmin asked in surprise.

"Do you think someone like my Weidong is a cabbage? How can there always be one? Although he is not as good as Weidong this time, he is also good in all aspects. This child has been practicing wrestling since he was a child. He has good physical fitness in all aspects. He is also a child who grew up under my care! He has a very good character!" Zhao Cheng then introduced Li Kuiyong's situation.

Originally, Zhang Chengmin thought that the company commander would send him another soldier like Zhao Weidong. But even if he was not as good as Zhao Weidong, he should be not bad, otherwise the company commander would not have sent him one!

Soldiers like Zhao Weidong were truly unattainable. There were simply too many soldiers of the same generation whose physical fitness was so poor that even those from the old revolutionary base areas, who had spent their childhoods gathering herbs and hunting with their families, couldn't match their abilities. This truly opened Zhang Chengmin's eyes.

Take the five-kilometer armed cross-country race for example. Others can run in thirteen minutes, but this guy can run in ten minutes, and he can finish the race without blushing or getting nervous.

This reminded Zhang Chengmin of Zhao Cheng's heroic appearance on the North Korean battlefield. His extreme speed and strength were a replica of the company commander!

Zhang Chengmin now regards Zhao Weidong as the treasure of the regiment. His only worry is that Zhao Weidong will be too outstanding and be discovered by the division and the army and transferred away directly. Then he will lose more than he gains.

If there is another one, even if he is worse than Zhao Weidong, it would be fine!

"Company commander, we have an agreement that if you are not cut out for it, you can only stay down there!" Zhang Chengmin said.

"Don't worry, how could my vision be bad? If this kid practices hard, he will definitely not be worse than you! If possible, he can be sent to Wang Guangrong in the future!" Zhao Cheng said.

"Can he still meet the requirements of Lao Wang? Company commander, don't tease me. If you say Weidong can join Lao Wang's army, I would believe it. But I have to see it for sure. Lao Wang's army is much more powerful now than before. I heard that they went to Zhurihe and fought with Long Chenggong's men. The result was a 50-50 draw! Both sides suffered heavy losses! After returning, they were awarded a collective second-class merit by the military region! It's incredible!" Zhang Chengmin said with a smile.

"Can we fight Long Chenggong and the others on equal terms? That's great! It looks like these guys are going to suffer again! Long Chenggong will definitely not tolerate such an outcome!" Zhao Cheng also laughed.

He hasn't been to Long Chenggong for a long time. Now Zhao Chenggong is trying his best to make himself an invisible person!

"That's right. I heard from Lao Wang that Long Chenggong's face turned black at that time. You didn't see it, Company Commander!" Zhang Chengmin also laughed out loud.

"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. As agreed, I will send the children to you, and you have to train them well. I didn't send them there to enjoy themselves! Especially my eldest son, you must not give me special treatment!" Zhao Cheng said.

"Yes! Don't worry, Captain!" Zhang Chengmin answered seriously.

After Zhao Cheng finished talking to Zhang Chengmin, he saw that it was almost time, so he followed the patrol out. Zhao Cheng looked at the young children on the street, each of them full of vitality.

"Chief, I heard that they plan to invite young people from other places to come to Beijing next year, from all over the country. Won't Beijing be in chaos by then?" The police officer who followed Zhao Cheng asked in a low voice.

"Don't think so badly of the children. They are all good kids with ideals and the courage to act! Besides, since their superiors have called on them to come to Peiping, they must have made all the necessary preparations. The situation you are worried about will not happen!" Zhao Cheng stopped the young policeman from speaking.

This guy is also a smart guy. Seeing Zhao Cheng's eyes, he understood what Zhao Cheng meant and stopped talking. The two continued patrolling. After a while, they came to the vicinity of Lao Mo's restaurant. Zhao Cheng found that Lao Mo seemed to be very lively today! He couldn't help but walk over to take a look.

It turned out to be quite lively. Zhao Cheng actually saw a group of guys discussing something as if they were in a meeting. Zhao Cheng was also very curious, so he quietly walked into Lao Mo's restaurant!
