Evaluation of works
In recent years, although many literary works have been well received by readers of different types and levels. But like Dachang (People's LiteratureNo. 1996, the author talks about songs), it has never been widely welcomed and has had a sensational effect. That grand occasion is a bit like 17 years ago when Director Joe took office.
Dachang is about a state-owned enterprise with 2000 people in a city. The former director was embarrassed and faced with many difficulties because he embezzled public funds, leaving a deficit: the foreign debt was not paid back, and those who came to collect debts were unwilling to leave; The old model worker was seriously ill and refused to be hospitalized. The small family had to rely on donations for surgery. Some workers are impetuous, some steal raw materials for takeout, and some take it out on the finance department; The chief engineer was absent-minded, and the invention could not be promoted because of lack of funds, so he wanted to leave the factory and find another way out.
As the year is approaching, the only luxury car left to maintain a strong commercial facade is gone ... The works spread out all aspects of the factory like folding fans, and all the contradictions and conflicts, big and small, are blamed on Lu Jianguo, the head of a factory. Through his experience, he described the life inside and outside the factory and reflected the floating world today.
