In September in Jiangnan, the abnormal weather has almost reached its limit.
It happened that we were affected by the typhoon again in the past two days. Although we were not the first to bear the brunt, we were also affected. It was like a huge shower was installed in the sky, and a huge blower was also set up. The rain and wind were blowing down.
The temperature has dropped from more than 30 degrees Celsius to around 20 degrees Celsius, which is quite rare weather.
More than a week after Jiangnan Daily published that editorial, the influence of Operation Thunder No. 1 was almost like the temperature of the weather, which almost dropped to the lowest point in the history of the world.
Just when people from all walks of life were talking about it, all parties had their own concerns, and almost all insiders were staring at Zhu Zhengwen's actions. In his office, a long-distance number starting with "010" rang loudly.
Seeing this number, Zhu Zhengwen's calm expression for many days suddenly changed. When the bell rang for the third time, he picked it up decisively and said in an unusually respectful tone: "Hello, old leader!"
There was a pause on the phone for a few seconds, and then a thick middle-aged male voice came. Although it was not deliberately artificial, it naturally spoke with deep dignity: "Two months have passed, how do you feel?"
Zhu Zhengwen stood up, as if he was standing opposite a highly respected leader, and said in a loud voice: "I am walking on thin ice, and I am cautious."
The other end of the phone said: "This sentence is used very well. The position of director of the Public Security Bureau is not so easy to sit firmly and well."
Zhu Zhengwen said again: "Secretary, I have failed to live up to your expectations."
The thick male voice said again: "Why do you say that?"
Zhu Zhengwen said sincerely: "In two months, I didn't get off to a good start. Instead, the situation was in danger of getting out of control. This is my fault. Although I have been working hard, there is still no way."
The other party just responded lightly and said, "Even if I were in your position, I might not be able to do much better than you."
Hearing these words, even though Zhu Zhengwen's many years of career experience had tempered his heart to be extremely tough, he couldn't help but feel a burning sensation and feel sore at the corners of his eyes.
At the same time, all the worries and efforts during this period of time seem to be worth it at this moment. Because the person I respect the most understands all of this, then that is enough!
The male voice said quietly: "So you don't have to blame yourself, you did a good job. But there is one thing you didn't do well..."
The male voice responded: "Why haven't you taken the initiative to tell me the situation yet? Doesn't all this put pressure on you?"
Zhu Zhengwen replied: "No, there is pressure. If it was just Yu Xiaobo, I wouldn't mind it, but Wu Yifu joined in and put a lot of pressure on me in publicity, which has directly affected the stability of the public security system. Secretary
.I think you have a lot of things to do over there, so I can’t bother you by calling you..."
The male voice seemed to let out a sigh of relief and said: "Zhengwen, after so many years, don't you still understand me? Or are you still unable to let go of your dignity?"
The sweat on Zhu Zhengwen's forehead suddenly broke out, and he said: "Secretary, I was wrong. I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed!"
The male voice said again: "Actually, you also know. I asked you to go over there first. Everything you encounter has been considered, but you still hope to deal with it yourself, right?"
Zhu Zhengwen lowered his head slightly and said, "Yes, I was too self-righteous. I almost ruined something big!"
The other party seemed to shake his head slightly and said: "That's not entirely true. No matter how chaotic Jiangnan Province is, it won't get anywhere!"
When he said the last two words, his words burst out with strong confidence. But Zhu Zhengwen had no doubt that the other party had such ability and heroic spirit!
After a pause, the male voice sounded again, saying: "It's almost chaotic. Most of the things that should jump out have jumped out?"
Zhu Zhengwen nodded and said: "The situation is already very clear, and there are many rumors. I heard that people from the Ye family will take over the top position."
The male voice said noncommittally: "Before things are settled, there are always various noises. Don't be fooled by these. Just see the essence of the matter."
Zhu Zhengwen responded: "Old leader, I have always been very clear. I just hope that I can share more with you during this period."
The male voice said: "No, you still don't fully understand. Just like the overture, development and climax of a play, each link must be laid out one by one, and finally it can be logical. If the first two parts are delayed, it should be
Some of the effects are gone, do you understand?"
Zhu Zhengwen suddenly said: "...I understand, I am overthinking."
The male voice said again: "Well, that's why I have to make this call today, and I have to explain something clearly to you. It's normal for you to be stressed now, and it's a good thing to have ideas, but one thing you have to understand is that everything is going on in an orderly manner.
, no matter how messed up others are, they will not deviate from the proper track."
The male voice continued: "As I said just now, just do what you should do at this stage. Don't overdo it, and don't worry about things. Just wait and see what happens. What should come will come back, and what shouldn't come will never come!"
After saying a few more words, the male voice suddenly asked strangely: "How is Xiao Zhu?"
Zhu Zhengwen said hurriedly: "In the hall, I am now a section chief. I have grown a lot recently. Thank you Secretary for your concern!"
"Young people, it is a good thing to have more experience. Only when you are under pressure can you make progress. I think back then, didn't we walk through it step by step like this? I didn't expect Xiao Zhu to be suitable for this path. If you train him well, he might achieve success in the future.
Taller than you." The male voice said with a hint of regret, "What a pity, my... ugh!"
Hearing that sigh, Zhu Zhengwen felt uncomfortable, but there were some things he couldn't say out loud. He just said: "Old leader, Xiao Chen is much better than Xiao Zhu. There is no doubt about this. I think his achievements in the future will also be great."
Absolutely huge!”
The male voice said: "I know his abilities and some of his current situation in school. But compared to the two of you, my relationship with him is not as good as that."
Zhu Zhengwen responded: "Old leader, I believe that one day he will understand your painstaking efforts, and he will definitely do so."
The male voice said: "No, the main fault in this matter is me. I didn't care much about the two of them before, but now that I'm older, I know... I talked too much today, haha."
Zhu Zhengwen knew that the other party rarely showed his inner emotions in front of outsiders. Being able to hear his unreserved voice on the phone was enough to prove that he had placed himself in a very intimate position. This made Zhu Zhengwen quite excited.
and pride.
"Text, it's almost time. You've done well during this period. Keep working hard and don't have any psychological burden, okay?" Finally, the male voice warned again, and then simply hung up the phone.
After putting down the phone, a few minutes later, Zhu Zhengwen looked away from the window and sat back in his seat.
He opened the drawer and took out a pack of golden Huanghelou cigarettes. He carefully took out one cigarette, then put it to his lips, took out a rarely used lighter, lit the cigarette with a somewhat unfamiliar technique, and carefully
I am savoring the pack of cigarettes that was given to the old leader on the other end of the phone just now...
In the smoke, he thought of that tall and majestic figure, some of the glorious past when he followed the other party, and the conversation between the other party and him in the courtyard before coming to Jiangnan Province...
Although so much time has passed, the scene at that time is still vivid in my mind...
"Don't worry, old leader, I will handle the situation well, please don't worry!" - The words I said while patting my chest seemed to still echo in my ears...
I carefully recalled the words on the phone just now, and reviewed every moment of this period. In an instant, a strong sense of confidence returned to me.
He cast his eyes out the window, passing through the falling raindrops, passing through the bursts of rapid wind, and shooting into the layers of dark clouds hanging high in the sky. He seemed to see the long-lost golden sunshine that would soon shine on him.
Then it fell, and the earth was still bright... (To be continued...)
