Wen Yuan and Liu Bentao were in Zhang Haitao's office. They were sitting on the couch together, and Zhang Haitao was sitting opposite them.
At this time, the three people all had smiles on their faces, and the atmosphere seemed harmonious and harmonious.
Seeing Qiao Liang, Wen Yuan and Liu Bentao looked at each other, and then, coincidentally, happy and sarcastic smiles appeared on their faces, and then disappeared.
Zhang Haitao waved to Qiao Liang: "Director Qiao, come on, come in -"
Qiao Liang went in and nodded to Wen Yuan and Liu Bentao: "Hello, Director Wen, hello Director Liu."
"Master Qiao...oh no, hello, Deputy Editor-in-Chief Qiao!" Wen Yuan said while smiling at Qiao Liang.
Liu Bentao simply said: "Hello, Deputy Editor Qiao."
At this time, the different names Zhang Haitao, Wen Yuan, and Liu Bentao gave Qiao Liang seemed to have different meanings.
Qiao Liang continued: "The leaders are discussing things, so I won't interrupt you for now and will come back later."
After saying that, Qiao Liang wanted to exit.
"Hey, no need." Zhang Haitao stopped Qiao Liang, "The two deputy secretaries-general just finished handing over work and came to report to me. We have almost finished talking..."
Wen Yuan and Liu Bentao looked at each other. Since Zhang Haitao said this, it meant that they should leave.
So the two of them stood up, and Wen Yuan said: "Secretary-General, I have just taken over the work of the research office. If you have any instructions in the future, feel free to give them to the Secretary-General."
Zhang Haitao chuckled: "Old Wen, I remember that you worked in the research laboratory for a short period of time before. You must be familiar with the work of the research laboratory. I believe that you will not have any problems if you return to your old job.
"
Wen Yuan smiled and nodded, muttering in his mind, Damn, go back to your old business, why does this sound so unpleasant to your ears?
Liu Bentao continued: "Secretary-General, if you give more guidance on the work of the office in the future, I will give you more reports and instructions."
"Well..." Zhang Haitao nodded, "It would be nice if you can help me worry less."
Liu Bentao blinked. Zhang Haitao seemed to have something in his words. What does it mean to worry less? Not to cause trouble for him? Or not to do little things for him behind his back?
Without thinking too much, Wen Yuan and Liu Bentao nodded respectfully to Zhang Haitao and went out.
After they left, Zhang Haitao waved to Qiao Liang: "Brother, come and sit."
Qiao Liang sat opposite Zhang Haitao.
"Brother, are you here to say goodbye to me?" Zhang Haitao said.
Qiao Liang nodded: "Yes, Secretary General, Director Liu and I just finished the handover."
A trace of sadness flashed in Zhang Haitao's eyes: "Brother, I failed to fulfill the boss's instructions and I can't keep you..."
Qiao Liang was moved for a while: "Secretary-General, under the current situation, you have tried your best. I understand."
Zhang Haitao patted Qiao Liang's shoulder: "It's a smooth tone at least. The green hills are still there, so we don't have to worry about running out of firewood. The temporary bumps don't mean it will always be bumpy, and the temporary unfavorable situation doesn't mean that in the future..."
Zhang Haitao did not continue.
Qiao Liang nodded: "Secretary-General, I understand what you mean. In fact, I have been mentally prepared for this day. In fact, the arrangements for me now are better than I expected."
"The current arrangement..." Zhang Haitao mused, "Brother, although there seems to be nothing wrong with the current arrangement, you must be more vigilant to prevent any evil in it."
"Secretary-General, what do you mean..." Qiao Liang looked at Zhang Haitao tentatively.
Zhang Haitao said simply: "What I mean is very simple, that is, someone may not let you go easily. There may not be any ulterior motives and scheming in arranging for you to go to the newspaper office this time."
Qiao Liang's heart froze and she looked at Zhang Haitao blankly. It seemed that he had thought of a lot. It seemed that he had thought of something that he had not had time to think about yet.
Zhang Haitao then smiled: "Brother, from another perspective, this adjustment may not be all bad for you. At least, by leaving the commission and the compound, you can stay away from the whirlpool of struggle."
Qiao Liang also smiled: "Secretary-General, your words seem to be comforting me."
"No!" Zhang Haitao shook his head seriously, "After the boss was transferred, you left the central authority. On the one hand, you were transferred in the name of high authority, but on the other hand, this is good for you.
of."
Qiao Liang blinked and couldn't help but start to think about Zhang Haitao's words.
Then Zhang Haitao said: "Our host cares so much about me. He specially assigned me two new and capable deputy secretaries-general."
Qiao Liang calmed down and said with some worry: "Secretary-General, these two deputy secretaries-general... you have to be more careful..."
"I know this well. When soldiers come to block it, when water comes to cover it up, it depends on what tricks they have. Just use them." Zhang Haitao looked calm.
Qiao Liang thought for a moment and then said: "Secretary-General, Director Liu who will succeed me..."
"I know Liu Yiping is Minister Chu's employee, and I know why she was arranged to succeed you. You don't need to remind me about this." Zhang Haitao interrupted Qiao Liang with a smile.
Qiao Liang shook his head: "Secretary-General, that's not what I meant."
"Huh? What do you mean..." Zhang Haitao looked at Qiao Liang.
Qiao Liang lowered his voice: "Secretary-General, I want to tell you that Director Liu is worthy of your trust in his position as deputy director of the Commission."
"Worth my trust?" Zhang Haitao frowned, "Brother, what do you mean by this?"
"Let's put it this way, first, she will try her best to deal with certain people well, and second, she will never let you down, whether at work or in other aspects." Qiao Liang said.
"Oh..." Zhang Haitao blinked, "Originally, I planned to replace all the departments Liu Yiping was in charge of after a while, and let her only be in charge of logistics. When you put it like this, it seems..."
"There is no need. First, she is qualified for her current position. Second, she..." Qiao Liang then whispered a few words into Zhang Haitao's ear.
After listening to Qiao Liang's words, Zhang Haitao looked at Qiao Liang: "Brother, are you sure?"
"No problem." Qiao Liang nodded affirmatively.
"Yes." Zhang Haitao nodded, "Since you said so, brother, I naturally have to believe it."
"Thank you Secretary-General for your trust," Qiao Liang said.
"It seems that you have a close personal relationship with Liu Yiping? Do you know her quite well?" Zhang Haitao said.
"Absolutely." Qiao Liang said vaguely.
"How deep is this personal relationship? To what extent do we understand it?" Zhang Haitao asked with great interest.
"This..." Qiao Liang scratched his head, "Secretary-General, can we change the topic?"
Zhang Haitao chuckled: "Okay, no more questions, let's change the topic... This time you have been transferred to the newspaper office, do you plan to report to the boss?"
"No." Qiao Liang shook his head decisively.
"Why?" Zhang Haitao asked.
"Because I'm on the decline now, and I don't want the boss to know that he's worried about me, and I don't want to cause trouble to the boss," Qiao Liang said.
Zhang Haitao looked at Qiao Liang with admiration: "Brother, it's worth it to have someone like you by my boss's side! However, do you think the boss will not know about this personnel adjustment in Jiangzhou?"
"Maybe he will know sooner or later, but I still don't want to tell him personally." Qiao Liang said.
"Yes." Zhang Haitao nodded, "If you want to take up your post at the newspaper office, do you want me to take you there? Or I can ask Minister Song to go with the people from the organization department..."
Qiao Liang was immediately moved. He knew what Zhang Haitao meant. He wanted to take Song Liang with him to the newspaper office to support him.
But Qiao Liang doesn't want this. Firstly, Song Liang has just arrived in Jiangzhou, and Qiao Liang doesn't want outsiders to see that he has anything special about him. Secondly, Zhang Haitao's current situation is not easy. In this case, he doesn't want to
Because I caused trouble to Zhang Haitao.
Qiao Liang immediately thanked him, and then said: "Secretary-General, I don't want to trouble the leader. I know the people at the newspaper office very well. I don't need anyone to send it off. I want to report to the newspaper office myself tomorrow."
Zhang Haitao looked at Qiao Liang without saying a word.
Qiao Liang said again: "Secretary-General, I am telling the truth."
Zhang Haitao was silent for another moment, then nodded: "Okay, then it's up to you... Brother, remember, although you have left the commission, the compound, and my side, you can contact me at any time, my
The phone is open for you 24 hours a day.”
Qiao Liang was deeply moved by Zhang Haitao's words. He clearly felt Zhang Haitao's care and love for him. He clearly felt that the relationship between him and Zhang Haitao was not just a superior-subordinate working relationship, but also a layer of friendship.
This friendship seems to be inseparable from An Zhe.
Qiao Liang suddenly thought, humanely, within the system, there are only eternal interests, not eternal friendship. So, how to explain the relationship between himself, An Zhe and Zhang Haitao? According to this logic, even though there is this friendship,
But can’t stand the test of interests?
Qiao Liang subconsciously denied it.
After chatting with Zhang Haitao for a while, Qiao Liang said goodbye and left.
As soon as Qiao Liang left, Zhang Haitao took out his mobile phone and started dialing. After a moment he said: "Secretary An..."
Qiao Liang returned to the office, and Liu Yiping was still there.
"Have you finished bidding farewell to the Secretary-General?" Liu Yiping asked.
"Yes." Qiao Liang nodded, "Yiping, from now on, you can do your job with peace of mind. The Secretary-General will trust you and give you strong support in your work."
Liu Yiping's eyes lit up: "What did you and the Secretary-General say about me?"
"I told him what needed to be said." Qiao Liang said perfunctorily.
"Can you tell me the specific content?" Liu Yiping was curious.
Qiao Liang shook his head: "It's not necessary."
Liu Yiping pursed her lips: "Okay, thank you."
"Between you and me, there is no need to say thank you." Qiao Liang said.
"But I still want to thank you." Liu Yiping said stubbornly.
Qiao Liang smiled and then picked up his things: "From now on, this office belongs to you."
"I like to work in the office where you stayed, because here, I can always breathe your scent." Liu Yiping said affectionately and sadly.
Qiao Liang silently stared at Liu Yiping, looking at this woman who had brought him great physical and mental joy, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: Yesterday is like the flowing water in the east. The past may never come back, and the past may be destined to become the past forever.
.
"I'm leaving." Qiao Liang said softly.
"Yes." Liu Yiping nodded, "I'll give it to you."
"No -" Qiao Liang shook his head, "Out of this door, you and I are just ordinary predecessors and successors."
"You——" Liu Yiping looked at Qiao Liang blankly.
"You are a smart woman, you should understand what I mean." Qiao Liang said meaningfully.
Liu Yiping sighed and lowered his head: "I understand."
Qiao Liang then walked to the door, turned around and smiled at Liu Yiping.
Liu Yiping also tried her best to smile, with a smile that could not hide the sadness.
Qiao Liang sighed slightly in his heart. He opened the door and was about to go out. When he raised his head, he was stunned——
