After returning from the command center, Xu Dong immediately summoned Gu Haiyuan and others to have a meeting. His return time has been determined, and the passenger ship will be at 8 o'clock tomorrow night.
However, before leaving, the work needs to be handed over.
"Before the meeting, I will tell you a bad news. I have just been appointed as the deputy director of logistics by the command center and will be back by boat tomorrow night.
Do you guys have any ideas? Are you going to go back with me or plan to stay and continue to fight to the end?”
The three people at the scene had different reactions.
Ren Li tends to stay. He works very hard in the patrol team and it is rare to manage so many people. This is a good practical opportunity.
Gu Haiyuan is very contradictory. On the one hand, he is reluctant to give up the credit for his hand, and on the other hand, he is afraid of encountering danger.
Especially when the director was not here, he felt unsure.
Section Chief Xi was secretly happy. He had wanted to go back long ago. At his age, his career was almost over, so there was no need to stay and take risks.
I volunteered to flatter you.
Now it seems a bit rash.
The situation on Nisang is much more critical than expected. Since he got ashore, he hasn't even had a good night's sleep for a day.
Now that the opportunity is in front of him, he will of course choose to go back.
In the end, Ren Li spoke first: "Director, I want to stay and continue working."
"Okay." Xu Dong nodded, then looked at Gu Haiyuan, "Old Gu, where are you?"
"Director, I..."
Xu Dong suddenly patted his head: "I forgot to tell you, after I go back this time, I plan to officially resign as director."
"Director, are you going to resign?"
Ren Li was shocked.
Gu Haiyuan felt his heart pounding.
Section Chief Seungri was not much better, his eyes were amazingly bright.
"Oh..." Xu Dong waved his hand helplessly, "I believe you all know the situation in our family. My parents are old, so I want to go back and take over the company."
"Director, you are the real way to go home and inherit billions of property, right?" Section Chief Xi joked.
"You don't have to be envious. Tell you the truth. If it weren't forcing the situation, I wouldn't want to resign. Being a director would be much easier than a general manager."
"It's right, there is really no pressure on the work within the system." Gu Haiyuan echoed.
Xu Dong sighed:
"I'm going too far, let's get back to the topic. What do you two think? We are all adults, so you don't have to beat around the bush and just say whatever you want."
Section Chief Xi quickly replied: "Director, I am willing to stay, even if I have to fight for this life."
It is worth taking a little risk for promotion.
And this is almost his last chance. After all, he is still old and he will really retire if he can't get promoted.
And speaking of it, this mission was like a tailor-made for him. Such a good opportunity, he would never take the initiative to retreat no matter what.
"Okay, I'm not at ease with the warehouse for others. It would be better for you to stay at Lao Xi."
Xu Dong nodded with a smile.
"Director, I am willing to stay. You know that I, Lao Gu, have limited abilities, but I am definitely not the kind of person who gives up halfway."
Gu Haiyuan replied immediately.
"You two have to think about it? There is only one quota for directors. Let's first weigh whether it's worth it? Besides, even if you make great contributions this time, it may not be your turn."
Xu Dong reminded.
"Hehe, no matter whether it can be done or not, just try your best."
Section Chief Seungri was very open-minded.
Compared with others, he and Gu Haiyuan already have the first-mover advantage. If they can't compete with others, it will be unmanual.
I can only say that I can do my best and leave my destiny!
Xu Dong nodded: "Okay, since you two are willing, I will help you. When I return to the company, I will recommend you two to Mr. Fei."
"Thank you, Director!" the two of them said gratefully at the same time.
"Xiao Ren, the same is true for you. If you have the opportunity to get you a deputy section chief."
Xu Dong encouraged.
As long as Gu Haiyuan or Xi Guofu can successfully take over, Xiang Xin will have the opportunity to take over as section chief, and Ren Li can make up for the deputy section chief she has vacated.
"Thank you, Director." Ren Li was also very happy.
Xu Dong finally looked at Section Chief Xi: "By the way, Lao Xi, you can pick a hundred boxes of canned meat to the port hospital and hand it over to Dr. Nagasawa in person."
"Didn't Dr. Nagasawa evacuated?"
"It's back again. It's rare that they have this responsibility and dare to be retrogrades. For the sake of getting to know each other, it's better to help me!"
Xu Dong sighed.
"I understand, but Director, we are actually retrogrades."
"You are right to say that. You three are good at performing well and striving to make great contributions."
"Yes, Director."
...
The next morning, Xu Dong went to the port in person, gave the baby a gift, and stuffed a pack of snacks to the nurse responsible for taking care of the child.
After returning, he specially organized two trucks to deliver more than ten tons of supplies to the Dongyang Nuclear Power Plant at one time, and the eggs could not be kept in one basket.
To avoid any trouble after he leaves.
It’s not that he couldn’t trust Section Chief Xi, but that he was afraid that he could not withstand the pressure from above.
After a busy day, it was finally time for supper.
Everyone held a simple farewell ceremony.
After dinner, while there was still some time, Xu Dong dragged his suitcase to the command center.
"Uncle Dong, have you eaten?"
"Eat." Minister Dong nodded, "Have the work been arranged?"
"Well, Gu Haiyuan is responsible for the operation of the power plant and the logistics of Xiguofu Management. If you encounter any trouble, please help me take care of it."
"It's easy to say."
"Thank you!"
Minister Dong waved his hand: "Tell me, what else do you have to do if you come to find me?"
"It's nothing big. I'm going back now. There are still some cigarettes and snacks left. It's too troublesome to take them back. So I'd give them to you for ages."
Xu Dong held the bag in his hand and gently placed it on the desk in front of him.
"Oh? So polite?"
Minister Dong smiled.
"There are not many things, please accept them with confidence!"
Xu Dong was originally expected to go on a business trip for two or three months.
For this purpose, he carefully prepared a lot of good things and packed a full four large suitcases.
Unfortunately, "happiness" came too suddenly.
In order to avoid wasting, he started delivering gifts since last night and delivered most of the items one after another.
In the end, there were two cigarettes left, as well as some snacks such as jerky, which he specially left for Minister Dong.
After all, the other party has a high position and a powerful position, so we must avoid suspicion.
Minister Dong opened the bag and looked at it. The gift was not too out of line, so he did not refuse:
"Okay, I've taken over the stuff, thank you."
Xu Dong shook his head, then glanced at his watch:
"The time is almost over. Uncle Dong, I'll leave first, we'll have a date later."
"Let's go, I'll give you a gift!"
"No need, you are busy with your noble people."
"Not bad about these steps."
Minister Dong stood up directly.
When the two arrived at the gate of the command center, Xu Dong suddenly felt a chill on his face. It turned out that it was snowing.
This is the real snowflake, not the volcanic ash.
The black snowflakes, mixed with black volcanic ash, cannot tell each other at all.
"Uncle Dong, it's snowing." Xu Dong said in amazement.
"Yes, it's snowing!"
Minister Dong's words were full of concern.
It's really snowing all night.
The snow came too badly and brought great changes to the rescue work.
Xu Dong is just the opposite.
He was a little lucky at this time, but fortunately he left early and delayed another two or three days. He probably would have to celebrate the New Year here.
