Supply and Marketing Song

A farmer's boy with no background spent thirty-four years working his way from the most remote cotton purchasing station on the Han River to the director of the county supply and marketing cooperative. He also re-erected a gold-lettered "Supply and Marketing Cooperative" sign that had been shattered by the times, inch by inch. In the summer of 1991, six graduates entered the supply and marketing cooperative at the same time. Fan Minyi, a farmer's boy who ranked first in the pre-job training exam, was sent to the most remote cotton purchasing station by the Han River with the sentence "Everyone must work at the grassroots level." Stones are hidden in cotton, scapegoats are on the top, and night shifts are queued to the end of time - he is neither noisy nor quarrelsome, holding the first train of the computer age with his backhand, working from "everyday worker" to pen, and then fighting his way through the open and covert attacks of the fireworks company. After thirty years of ups and downs in supply and marketing, he wants to re-erect the golden signboard that has been shattered by the times inch by inch. Even if gold is buried in the soil, it will shine.
