Chapter 317 318 [Xiang Nan's wishful thinking]

  As "The Sun Is the Reddest, the Chairman Is the Closest" was sung throughout the country, Xiang Nan won honors for himself, for the Art Troupe, and for the Tianfu Military Region.

   Because of this, he was awarded second-class merit by his superiors.

  The reason is to adhere to the correct direction of literary and artistic work, create excellent works, and make outstanding contributions to invigorating the cultural life of the troops and promoting the construction of spiritual civilization.

   This second-class merit is the first second-class merit obtained by the art troupe since its establishment.

  So the political commissar paid special attention to it, and made great preparations the day before the chief came to award the meritorious medal. Cleaning the yard, sweeping the streets, decorating the auditorium, and hanging up colorful flags... only need to pour clean water on the street and pave the road with loess.

"Comrade Liu Feng, congratulations on receiving this honor." The chief personally pinned the medal of merit on Xiang Nan's chest and said, "I hope you will not be arrogant or discouraged in the future, and make persistent efforts to produce more new works, good works, and create new ones for our military region." achievement."

   "Yes, thank you chief, I will follow the chief's order and work hard to complete the task." Xiang Nan saluted solemnly.

  To be honest, being able to obtain second-class merit was really beyond his expectations.

  Because he has checked the information, it is not easy to make second-class merit. It is often a very dangerous task. Only after you go there and come back alive can you make second-class meritorious service. Of course, if you don't come back, it's first-class work.

  Xiang Nan didn't expect that he would get a second-class merit after writing a song himself. It really surprised him.

  …

  In fact, the reason for this is mainly because things are rare and expensive.

  Although the Tianfu Military Region has hundreds of thousands of troops under its jurisdiction and countless talents, it has never had any outstanding achievements in literary and artistic work.

   Now Xiang Nan has finally come out, and a song has been sung all over the country, giving voice to the military region and winning honor. Naturally, it is necessary to reward it well.

  Second-class work is considered leisurely. In fact, the chief originally planned to award first-class merit. But he was worried that Xiang Nan would feel complacent, so he gave him a second-class merit first.

  When making new meritorious service in the future, consider granting first-class meritorious service.

  …

  After Xiang Nan won the second-class merit, his status in the art troupe has risen even higher.

  Before, some people were upset that he turned from a marginal man to a pillar, talking strange things behind his back and complaining. Once he got the second-class merit, even the people who spoke ill of him behind his back disappeared.

  Before, the female soldiers who only dared to sneak hints at him became bolder now. Invite him to eat popsicles, eat toffee, invite him to dance, invite him to watch a movie... the people in the same dormitory are so envious.

   "Liu Feng, I heard that the Little Ballet invited you to dance yesterday? Oh, I'm so envious~"

   "Liu Feng, yesterday Qiu Peining gave you the meat from his rice bowl in front of so many people, you are so happy!"

   "Liu Feng, just as I took your clothes down for washing yesterday, Wu Baozhu snatched them to wash them. Sigh, when did female soldiers rush to wash my clothes?"

   They said enviously.

   Most of those female soldiers have their eyes above the top, and they want to marry at a high place. Therefore, these male soldiers who don't have a strong background or a deep relationship have always been honest.

   For Liu Feng, who has no background and no relationship, he keeps a respectful distance.

  But he didn't want Liu Feng to become a favorite among women, so many female soldiers pursued him at the same time. It's really enviable.

  But they only dare to envy, not hate. After all, Xiang Nan has made second-class merit, and a promotion is just around the corner.

   Unless they don't want to mess around anymore, who would dare to stroke their beards at this time.

  …

  Regarding the female soldiers' frequent expressions of love, Xiang Nan adopted the three-no principle. No initiative, no response, no rejection. Don't take the initiative to pursue female soldiers, pretend to be deaf and dumb when showing love, and don't directly refuse face-to-face.

  The reason why he did this was because he didn't want to court those female soldiers, but he also didn't want to offend them. After all, he still has to live in the military camp, and offending a lot of women won't do him any good.

  His plan is to stay in the art troupe for two years, and after the sports are over, he will change jobs and take the college entrance examination to make a career. Anyway, the art troupe will be disbanded sooner or later, so he doesn't have to hang himself from this tree.

   At that time, he still wants to tutor He Xiaoping to take the college entrance examination together.

  Before he arrived, he had checked the college entrance examination papers of those years. As long as he was not stupid and memorized those answers, it shouldn't be difficult to get into college.

  In the 1980s, college students were the pride of heaven. Not only were tuition fees free, board and lodging were provided, but distribution was also included. After working for a few more years and the country completely liberalizes the private economy, it should not be difficult to go into business and become a billionaire.

  …

  Xiang Nan's wishful thinking is very good, and his three no principles also let him deal with many female soldiers. But there are always some people he can't handle, such as the political commissar.

   "Liu Feng, you are also twenty-three years old this year." The political commissar said with a smile, "You are still at the deputy company level. According to the regulations, you can get married. How is it? Do you have a romantic partner?"

   "Political Commissar, I've been busy with work recently, so I haven't thought about this yet." Xiang Nan laughed when he heard that the words were wrong.

   "We still have to consider it." The political commissar smiled, "Work is important, and life is also important. How about this, if you don't mind, let me introduce you, how about it?"

  Xiang Nan's scalp exploded when he heard it.

  He doesn't want the political commissar to help him introduce someone.

   First of all, the person who can match the political commissar is not an ordinary person. Either a relative of the political commissar, or the chief's daughter. Once you can't get along and have conflicts, you will be unlucky.

  Secondly, if he marries another woman, what will He Xiaoping do? When the time comes, will you remarry after divorce? That would be too wronged her. It's not fair to that woman either.

   "Thank you for your concern, the political commissar. But I've been busy writing a new song recently, and I have a headache every day thinking about it. I really don't have the energy to talk to someone." Xiang Nan thought for a while and replied cautiously.

  He believed that the reason why the political commissar helped him introduce his partner was definitely not simply out of enthusiasm.

   You know, he is only twenty-three years old this year. And the art troupe has a lot of young men in the 24th and 5th grades, like Squad Leader Ma of the cooking team, all of them are in their thirties.

  The political commissar does not arrange for them, but rushes to introduce himself, which is obviously profitable.

   Either he thinks he has a future and wants to marry his relative's daughter to him. When the time comes, he will be tied to a rope with him. No matter what happens, he will not be left behind.

  Either it is a certain chief, fancying his potential, wants to marry his daughter to him, and entrusts the political commissar to match the bridge. The political commissar was willing to be the matchmaker in order to please the chief.

   But to get the political commissar to give up this idea, at present, there is only one way to produce new works.

  As long as he continues to produce new works, the political commissar will be able to follow suit, thus offsetting his income from being a matchmaker.

   Otherwise, he has to sell himself for a good price.

   "Oh?! Is there another new work?" The political commissar was really happy when he heard it, "Very well, since this is the case, then you should be busy creating. We will talk about the introduction of the object later."
