Temporary Manager

The governor attended the opening meeting, and technical cadre Yan Lingtao was assigned to take over the role temporarily. During the pre-shift meeting, Yan Lingtao outlined the day’s tasks, including routine inspections and the lubrication and maintenance of flat valves in the water treatment area.

“Gangchang,” one employee, Lupin, reminded, “you missed mentioning the risk points and control measures for today’s work.”

“That’s a good reminder,” Yan Lingtao responded, nodding. “We must be cautious. Let’s go through the potential risks and how to manage them.”

A Penny is Also Money

While the warehouse keeper, Ji Shufan, carefully cleaned dust off an old plastic bag, Xiao Liu said, “Ji Ji, don’t wipe it—just one penny less.”

“A penny is still money,” Ji Shufan smiled. “It might not seem like much, but it’s easy to clean up and reuse.”

“In recent years, have you collected three or four sacks?” asked Koyanagi.

“Yeah,” Ji Shufan nodded. “We sort them out and code them into recycling bags, which we use again later. Then, the inspectors come to collect the waste.”

"I Am Responsible for My Territory"

“Sorry, you didn’t wear a safety helmet. Please leave the well site,” Liu Yingzhi, the team leader, told an uninvited visitor who had entered the area.

“No problem. I’ll just take a quick look and leave right away. It’s okay if the inspectors aren’t here,” the visitor replied cheerfully.

“No, please leave!” Liu Yingzhi said seriously. “It doesn’t matter if the inspection is coming. I am responsible for my territory!”

Special Honor

As the host counted down from ten, all the female workers stopped their tasks. Each received warm applause and cheers as they were called by their table numbers. This was part of a dumpling-making event held by the company.

To promote a more frugal and home-like culture, the company shifted from material rewards to spiritual recognition. Winners of the competition were given special consideration for advanced customer service evaluations. Everyone agreed, “This competition is popular! It’s a real honor!”

"Intersection Veterans"

On the morning of March 5th, at a busy crossroads in the city center, a "coordinator" was directing traffic smoothly. A regular passerby asked Zhang Unye, a traffic assistant, “Lao Zhang, is this a recruit you brought along? His actions are really professional.”

“She’s known as an 'old veteran.' She’s Xiao Song, an employee of PetroChina. She volunteers here several times a month,” Zhang Unye explained.

"Mom, Hit You Ten Times."

“Mom, hit you ten times,” her daughter said with a pout. Qu Xiaofang asked, “Why?”

“You didn’t speak up, and I don’t have a new schoolbag,” the daughter replied.

After the school started, the daughter wanted a new bag, so they made a deal: if she got good grades, her mother would buy it. But Qu Xiaofang forgot about the agreement once she returned to work.

Realizing her mistake, she quickly grabbed her daughter and said, “Baby, I was wrong. Let’s go buy it.”

Looking for China Petroleum

At 10 o’clock on March 13th, a black car slowly pulled into the 7th station in Penglai. A middle-aged man in his 30s stepped out, holding a red flag prominently in his hand.

It turned out that 10 days earlier, a customer had accidentally left his wallet at the convenience store entrance after refueling. The gas station staff, with the help of the police, managed to return the wallet to its owner.

The customer, who had been in Qingdao, hadn’t had the chance to express his gratitude at first. He finally came to thank the employees, saying, “Thanks to CNPC for having such a great employee.”

He added, “From now on, we will only choose China Petroleum.”
