Chapter one hundred and seventy first wave after wave
Zhou's mother was hospitalized for three days, so Zhou Bingkun could only take three days off to stay with her in the hospital in case something unexpected happened. As for work, he really couldn't take care of it.
No, it’s all the way to the office.
"Bingkun, everyone should consciously demand themselves in accordance with work disciplines. You haven't been to work for three days, and you only found someone to come over and ask for leave on the first day. This is absolutely unacceptable!"
"I'm sorry, Director Shao. There was an accident at home and I really can't get away." Zhou Bingkun could only tell what happened at home.
Shao Jingwen immediately retracted his attitude and apologized to Zhou Bingkun: "Forgive me for criticizing you without investigating."
"This matter is originally my fault. With my mother like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to concentrate on working here. In order not to affect the work of our magazine, I ask for someone else to take over my current job."
Shao Jingwen said: "Don't have these worries. I believe in your ability to handle these things well. Don't worry about work, Bai Xiaochuan and I will help you share it."
Zhou Bingkun asked: "Where is my master? Didn't he come to work either?"
Shao Jingwen was unwilling to say anything and asked Zhou Bingkun not to ask further.
Zhou Bingkun had doubts in his heart, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. If something really went wrong, Shao Jingwen wouldn't behave so calmly.
Zhou Bingkun sat back at his desk and started working on his work.
Shao Jingwen came to Zhou Bingkun after a while and asked: "I heard that your brother-in-law is the famous poet Feng Huacheng?"
To be honest, it turns out that Zhou Bingkun's disdain for Feng Huacheng was based on speculation, which can also be said to be a kind of prejudice. Since what happened to his mother, Zhou Bingkun has a lot of opinions about Feng Huacheng.
Zhou Bingkun said nonchalantly: "I don't know his name. I only know that his name is Feng Huacheng."
Zhou Bingkun's attitude was obviously bad. Shao Jingwen said: "Bingkun, how can you say that? No matter from which aspect, you should not have this attitude towards your brother-in-law."
Zhou Bingkun did not defend himself and asked: "Director Shao, what do you want to ask him about?"
"I just want to ask if you have any poems written by him and if you can let our magazine publish them."
Zhou Bingkun sensed something was wrong and said: "I don't have any of his poems in my hand, and I have never read any of his poems. Director Shao, I want to ask where my master is and if you are hiding something from me."
Shao Jingwen refused to admit it, insisted that there was no such thing, and did not allow Zhou Bingkun to ask further questions.
Zhou Bingkun had no choice but to immerse himself in work. In order to squeeze out time to take care of Zhou's mother, Zhou Bingkun could only finish his work quickly and make a publishing plan for the next few days.
Shao Jingwen took Zhou Bingkun's plan and said: "I have long seen that you have good abilities, but I didn't expect you to hide something. Your plan is good, but there are some places that need to be modified, and you have to leave some space for me."
Zhou Bingkun was puzzled and said: "These are the best articles here. If we don't publish these, what other articles will be published?"
Shao Jingwen still didn't say anything.
Zhou Bingkun could only say: "Director Shao, please tell me seriously why these plans did not pass, otherwise I really can't continue to work here."
"I have better articles to publish."
"Whose article will it be and when will it be available for review by the publisher? You should tell me this."
"I have asked Bai Xiaochuan to collect it. Only when he sends the news can we know whose article it is."
"Then please tell me where he went to collect the articles and whose articles he collected."
Shao Jingwen glanced at Zhou Bingkun and said, "Lao Bai and I collected a hundred yuan for travel expenses, and he went to Beijing."
go to Beijing!
Zhou Bingkun's worries still occurred.
Their purpose was correct, but Zhou Bingkun really couldn't agree with their actions.
"My brother-in-law was arrested for this matter. It is too risky for you to do this. I personally do not agree with your approach. As a friend, I hope you will not be so impulsive."
"Have you considered your family members by doing this? Moreover, the matter in Beijing has passed. If you continue to do this now, it can be said to add fuel to the fire."
Shao Jingwen adjusted his glasses and said, "Of course we have considered it. We have taken care of everything at home, so we have no worries."
"Bingkun, there are some things that must be done by someone, even if they know that they will pay a price."
Of course Zhou Bingkun knew that there were some things that he would not hesitate to do even if it cost him his life. But he did not think that what Shao Jingwen was doing now was really necessary. What they were doing was meaningful, but it was not necessarily necessary.
"I still stand by my opinion and disagree with your approach."
Shao Jingwen insisted: "I am the editor-in-chief, and I have decided to do this. I don't need your approval. When the country is at its most dangerous, someone has to go out and do something. Remember, this matter has nothing to do with you.
You don’t know anything about it.”
"Comrade Zhou Bingkun, since your mother is ill and bedridden, I grant you two months' leave to go home and take care of your mother. From today on, Bai Xiaochuan and I will take over the work of the magazine."
Zhou Bingkun was really pissed off.
He knows what's going to happen in the future, and he is trying his best to help his friends avoid those dangers. But some people and some things are really beyond his ability to stop.
Can he be allowed to participate in Shao Jingwen's plan?
"Comrade Shao Jingwen, I also ask you to think carefully, believe in the organization, believe in the party, and don't be impulsive."
Zhou Bingkun could only persuade him in this way, because he understood that what Shao Jingwen did was right, and when the truth comes out, they will become heroes.
But his reasons obviously could not convince Shao Jingwen, so he could only leave the magazine with a sense of powerlessness.
When I got home, I received something unexpected.
This was sent by Lu Chuan from a friend, and it was exactly what Shao Jingwen needed, the articles circulating in Beijing.
After sending away Lu Chuan's friends, Zhou Bingkun stared at these things in a daze.
Zheng Juan asked: "Bingkun, what's wrong with you?"
Zhou Bingkun said: "I don't know what to do with these things. Director Shao needs them, but I hate them."
Zheng Juan said: "Wouldn't it be solved if you gave them to Director Shao?"
Zhou Bingkun shook his head and said: "These things will cause trouble just like Guo Cheng's poem."
Zheng Juan paused for a moment, then continued to massage Zhou's mother and said, "Then don't give them away. You can't give them to Director Shao knowing it's troublesome."
Zhou Bingkun smiled bitterly and said, "But if Director Shao knows that I have these things in my hand and doesn't give them to him, he may fall out with me."
It didn't matter whether she gave it away or not. Zheng Juan massaged Zhou's mother and stopped making random comments.
As for Zhou Bingkun, he really didn't want to get involved in Shao Jingwen's matter, and there was no need to cause trouble for himself.
In the end, he decided not to send it over and asked Zheng Juan to cook these things.
If these things are sent over, Shao Jingwen will definitely publish them immediately. Then let him wait for the news about Bai Xiaochuan. If he fails, the risk will naturally be gone.
