Hearing what Ye Xinyi said, Qiao Liang was a little moved, knowing that Ye Xinyi's words came from a public heart.
Xu Honggang was very satisfied. Since the two ministers nominated him, he would just go with the flow.
"I think it's okay."
When Xu Honggang said yes, several other ministers nodded.
Then they discussed the list of the other two regular subjects. After the discussion, Xu Honggang asked Ye Xinyi to go back and submit the list to the Cadre Section of the Organization Department.
After the minister's office meeting, Qiao Liang sat in the office and looked out the window at the bleak late autumn. He didn't feel much joy in his heart. Instead, he lamented that from summer to autumn, he failed to climb to the deputy department, but fell to the deputy department. Now he has to return to the main department.
.
I turned around in a circle and stayed still.
And this standing still seems to be an improvement.
Damn, why does this kind of promotion feel so funny?
But Qiao Liang knew that if he didn't return to his major, it would be impossible to continue to make progress.
Even so, it is still important to stay put.
After a while, Xu Honggang came in with square steps, his hands behind his back.
"Today's ministerial office meeting went very smoothly." Xu Honggang said with a smile.
Qiao Liang smiled and said nothing.
"Xiao Qiao, let me give you an explanation. Even if the department only mentions one major subject this time, it will not fall on others." Xu Honggang's tone was decisive.
Qiao Liang was very moved: "Minister Xu, I understand, thank you."
"Actually, in a sense, this is not a promotion, it just returns you to your original position. In other words, this is how it should be." Xu Honggang's voice suddenly became angry, and then he went out.
Qiao Liang pondered Xu Honggang's words, smiled bitterly and shook his head.
When it was almost time to get off work, Chu Heng called the internal phone.
"Xiao Qiao, I specially nominated you at today's ministerial office meeting. You were demoted from a principal subject to a deputy subject. This has always made me worried. I finally got some relief today."
"Thank you, Brother Chu, for taking care of me."
"Based on our personal relationship, just say thank you and you won't see anyone else. I have always been very concerned about your progress..." Chu Heng encouraged Qiao Liang again.
After calling Chu Heng, Qiao Liang sneered, Damn, you think I can't figure out your thoughts.
Two days later in the afternoon, Qiao Liang was sorting documents in Xu Honggang's office when Ye Xinyi came in with an unhappy look on her face.
"Minister Ye, what's wrong?" Xu Honggang asked.
"Director Xu, the Organization Department is too bullying, too much!" Ye Xinyi said angrily, "Except for Director Qiao's, all the list of principal and deputy departments we submitted were approved, but his was not passed."
"Why?" Xu Honggang said calmly.
"The people in the cadre department said that Director Qiao was a person who had been punished before and was not suitable for promotion, so he called him back. I was so angry that I argued with them, saying that people who have made mistakes can't make progress? Why should I look at it with colored glasses?
People? No matter how hard you try, they just won’t agree. In the end they got into a quarrel, and then they pushed forward..."
Qiao Liang was touched when she heard Ye Xinyi quarreling with people in the organization department over her own affairs. She didn't expect Ye Xinyi to be so kind to her.
After hearing what Ye Xinyi said, Xu Honggang was silent in thought.
Ye Xinyi then handed Xu Honggang another document: "By the way, this is a transfer letter from the Organization Department. They want to transfer two people from our system."
Qiao Liang came over and saw that he was going to transfer Ding Lei and He Bi to the organization department.
These two people are the confidants of Chu Heng and Tang Shusen respectively. They are currently being squeezed out by Yuan Lizhi and suppressed by Xu Honggang. The transfer order at this time is obviously to take advantage of the adjustment of department-level cadres to rearrange them.
And once they entered the organizational system, under the protection of Tang Shusen, Dongshan
Resurrection is obviously natural.
I wonder what Xu Honggang thinks of this matter, and whether he will let it go?
Xu Honggang pondered, when Qiao Liang encountered obstacles in his promotion, the transfer order of these two guys came suddenly. It was a coincidence. It seemed that this arrangement was intentional. It seemed that this arrangement had an ulterior motive.
Xu Honggang realized that Tang Shusen wanted to make a deal with him, using Qiao Liang's promotion in exchange for letting He Bi and Ding Lei go.
He Bi and Ding Lei have now become ineffective people in the propaganda system. If they are let go, it will be tantamount to causing trouble for themselves and will only strengthen Tang Shusen's power.
But if he is not released, the cadre department, under the instruction of Tang Shusen, will use the reason that Qiao Liang has been punished and refuse to approve his official position.
Which one is more important, Qiao Liang's promotion or letting go, Ding Lei?
Although Xu Honggang felt that he was a little passive, he still chose the former without hesitation.
Although he made his choice, Xu Honggang did not want to personally resolve the matter, and he could not let Tang Shusen be too proud.
Thinking of this, Xu Honggang called Chu Heng on the internal phone and told him about Qiao Liang's promotion being blocked.
After hearing this, Chu Heng was very angry: "The cadre department is so ridiculous. They actually blocked the decision of our ministerial office meeting. It is obvious that they are deliberately making things difficult. I will go to them to reason."
"Don't be busy, Minister Chu, take a look at this again." Xu Honggang handed the transfer letter to Chu Heng.
After Chu Heng read it, he secretly smiled in his heart, but frowned slightly: "Why did the organization department want to transfer these two people away at this time?"
"This is obviously necessary for work." Xu Honggang said with a smile.
"Minister Xu, how do you think we can handle these two matters?" Chu Heng looked at Xu Honggang with a tentative look.
Xu Honggang said calmly: "You have full authority to handle this matter."
"How should I handle it? Minister Xu needs to explain it to me." Chu Heng said.
"Everything should focus on the overall situation and work. One must be mentioned and the other must be released immediately!" Xu Honggang said simply.
Chu Heng nodded, and Xu Honggang agreed to the deal hinted by Tang Shusen.
Chu Heng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He Bi and Ding Lei could finally be liberated. His and Tang Shusen's goals were achieved.
The purpose of liberating He Bi and Ding Lei is not only to get them out of the embarrassing situation of being suppressed and excluded, but also to reuse and promote them in the next step so that they can play a more important role.
Of course, there is a more important meaning in doing this, which is to show it to other people in the Tang Shusen Group and let them know that Tang Shusen will never give up on his old subordinates at any time. This can have a huge effect in uniting people's hearts.
In order for Xu Honggang to agree to let He Bi and Ding Lei go, he must have a bargaining chip, and this bargaining chip is Qiao Liang's promotion.
Although it was expected that Xu Honggang would prioritize Qiao Liang's promotion, Chu Heng was somewhat surprised that he agreed so readily.
Chu Heng agreed and went, and Ye Xinyi also returned to the office.
Qiao Liang understood the meaning at this time and was instantly moved by how much Xu Honggang valued him.
"Minister Xu, thank you." Qiao Liang said from the bottom of his heart.
"Do you understand?" Xu Honggang said.
Qiao Liang nodded vigorously: "I understand."
Xu Honggang exhaled heavily: "Old Tang is forcing me to make this deal. This deal is definitely not a loss for me, but it is also a big gain for Old Tang."
Qiao Liang frowned, Emma, she has become a bargaining chip in the deal.
As if he guessed what Qiao Liang was thinking, Xu Honggang said meaningfully: "Xiao Qiao, officialdom is a big business place. Transactions are everywhere. In a sense, everyone is a bargaining chip."
Qiao Liang thought about Xu Honggang's words and felt that they made sense, but it was difficult to understand them thoroughly.
