Director Leng looked very tired, with dark circles under his eyes. It seemed that he must not have had a good rest in the past few days.
Director Liang was making tea for us, and I started to report the first thing to Director Leng, "The old director went back first. Because your mobile phone was turned off that day, I didn't have time to report this to you..."
Immediately, I reported to him the situation after the old director went to the national recruitment office that day, and also explained the reason why the old director left first.
He didn't say anything, just nodded slightly, "Xiao Feng, it seems that this matter is not an ordinary trouble."
I said: "Later I called President Teng of Tsinghua University, but he was unwilling to come forward to find the state to recruit students. But I felt that he should have a way, but he was unwilling to do it. Director Leng
, do you think we should look for your classmate again? Ask him to tell Principal Teng again. This matter might be much easier to handle if Principal Teng is willing to come forward."
But he still shook his head slightly, "Xiao Feng, this matter is not that simple. Think about it, why does Tsinghua University want to go to the top? They don't have to do this. Their student resources are so good, they agreed
Our matter is, firstly, for the sake of my classmates, and secondly, it is just a favor for them. If it is done, it will bring a small amount of benefit to the school. It doesn't matter if it is not done.
What does 10,000 mean to their school? Even 10 million people may not like it. Therefore, I think it is unrealistic for us to pin this matter on them, because they will definitely not agree.
."
I think what he said is indeed very reasonable, so I couldn't help but sigh: "Yes. Then, what do you think we should do next?"
He said: "I think it's best for us to go back first. Anyway, we have made some progress now. At least Tsinghua University has agreed to this matter, so we have an explanation after we go back."
I was very unhappy: Is the purpose of doing this just to have an explanation? Then I heard him continue to say: "Now it seems that if this matter is to be completed, it will not be a matter at our level.
, we will report to the leaders for instructions after we go back, and then ask the leaders in the province to come forward to see if there is any effect. Xiao Feng, I know you are under a lot of pressure. If this matter cannot be done, it will definitely affect your future career.
After all, this matter was approved at the executive meeting of the provincial government. But think about it, if the provincial leaders still cannot solve this problem after coming forward, then the leaders will naturally understand the difficulty of this matter.
, so I won’t have any bad thoughts towards you. Do you think so?”
To be honest, I have to admit that his method is the best way to resolve the dilemma I am currently facing, but I still feel that this matter is too useless, not to mention Wu Shuang's proposal.
Keeping it in my mind, I feel that maybe that is where the real hope lies.
I asked Director Leng: "You mean, we go back now?"
He nodded, "Go back, otherwise, why are we staying here? Is it useful? By the way, before we leave, we should call Peking University to ask. He is an old friend of mine, and we don't need to visit him again.
If there is good news from Peking University, it will be easier for us to talk when we go back to report. Well, I will call President Xiang right now. Xiaoliang, go book a flight immediately, the nearest one, one hour later. Beijing
This place is too cold, I really can't stand it."
Director Liang immediately stood up and was about to go out. I hurriedly stopped him and said, "Let's do this. You book the two of you first. I have other things to do in Beijing. I'll go back in a few days."
He looked at me, and then went to see Director Leng. Director Leng said: "It's okay, if you have something to do, just stay here and take care of it, don't worry. As the saying goes, you can't eat hot tofu if you are in a hurry. Let's do this slowly.
If it doesn’t work this year, let’s talk about it next year. As long as we can provide the leaders in charge with the possibility of success, the leaders will not give up on this matter.”
I felt something: Director Leng didn’t seem as enthusiastic as before. Obviously, he should have been with a woman these days, and women can easily consume a man’s work enthusiasm, let alone when he
At that age, I can completely believe that the woman he is with must be young and beautiful. Otherwise, how could he have dark circles under his eyes?
I sighed in my heart.
Director Liang went to buy a plane ticket, and he and I were the only ones left in Director Leng's room.
Director Leng started to make a call, "Lao Xiang, I'm sorry to bother you, have you got any results on our matter now? Oh, okay, I understand. Thank you. Tsinghua University? Their attitude is very clear.
, have already made a report to the superiors with us. Well, okay. Thank you, I will visit you again when the time comes. There is something urgent in the unit, and I must rush back right away. Okay. Goodbye."
After the phone call, he came to look at me and said: "They still have the same opinion, that is, as long as the national recruitment is passed, there will be no problem with them."
I nodded, "This is at least one of their attitudes. Director Leng, please take a rest first. We will have a meal together at noon. I will toast you a few drinks. Thank you for your hard work in Beijing this time."
He waved his hand towards me and said: "It's nothing. But before I came here, I had already thought about the difficulty of this matter. Xiao Feng, I always believe in one truth: people plan things, and God makes things happen. Don't be anxious, let's take our time.
.”
I nodded, "Yes. I'm not in a hurry." But I was thinking in my heart: It's strange that I'm not in a hurry.
Then I said my goodbyes and left. I knew that he must be very tired and in urgent need of rest. But when I said my goodbyes, he had no intention of keeping me around.
After returning to the room, I immediately called Lin Yu. There was no other choice in this matter. I could only proceed according to the plan agreed upon by myself and Wu Shuang. Perhaps, that was my only chance.
At first, Lin Yu's phone was busy, and it was still the same after I called several times. Then I sent her a text message: Sister, I have something to talk to you about.
It took about ten minutes before she called me and asked, "What's going on?"
I said: "Sister, I am working in Beijing. I have something to ask you."
She said in surprise: "Are you still in Beijing?"
I said, "Yeah. Haven't you just been here a few days?"
She immediately laughed, "I'm in Beijing too."
Now it was my turn to be surprised, "Really?"
She smiled and said: "Yes. I came to Beijing for a meeting and reported in today. But I arrived last night. Can you tell me where you live?"
I told her immediately. She smiled and said, "It's not far. How about we have a meal together at noon and I come to your place? Oh, by the way, who else is with you?"
"
I said: "We still have two people, but they may be going back to Jiangnan soon. How about this, sister, I will check the situation later and then call you, okay? By the way, do you live in the Liaison Office in Beijing?
?”
She said: "I don't live there. Several people from the ministry and I live in a hotel not far from you. Let's see when you two leave, and then we will contact you again."
"
After hearing what she said, I felt less anxious. I thought since we were going to meet soon, there was no need to talk about that matter on the phone, so I agreed repeatedly.
What makes me very happy is that Director Liang bought the ticket at 11:30 in the morning. There is a ticket booking point in the hotel.
Director Leng decided to leave immediately. Director Liang had already called a car from the Beijing Office.
Although I was worried about Lin Yu, I still went to see Director Leng and the others off in person. However, when I was in the car, I sent Lin Yu a text message: I will go to the airport to see someone off, and we will have lunch together when I get back.
She quickly replied to me: Got it.
After seeing off Director Leng, I asked the driver to take me back to the hotel immediately. Before Director Liang left, I asked him to leave the card from my unit to me. He looked at me and asked me in a low voice: "Feng
Director, do you want to stay and continue to handle this matter?"
I nodded.
He asked me: "Then let me stay and help you run errands?"
I shook my head: "You send Director Leng back first, and then I will check the situation. If necessary, you will come back immediately. Don't talk about this matter to Director Leng."
He nodded and said, "I understand."
After returning to the hotel, the first thing I did was to book a private room. Although we were in Beijing, I still didn't want to eat in the lobby with Lin Yu. What if someone who knew us saw us? In this world
Sometimes such coincidences happen online, so I think it's best to be careful. After all, Lin Yu's status is different, not to mention she is a woman.
I didn't go back to the room, but waited for her directly in the private room. Of course, I sent her a text message and told her the specific room number.
She came not long after. She was dressed very simply, just a cashmere coat, but her head was wrapped with a scarf. Many women in Beijing were dressed like her, probably because they were afraid of the cold.
The wind blew their delicate faces. But I knew that Lin Yu's thoughts were not just for that reason.
After she came in, she looked at the table and said, "Hey! You ordered mutton soup? Okay! This thing is warm to eat, and the mutton in the north doesn't have much odor."
I went to take off her coat, then asked her to sit down, and then said to her with a smile: "Sister, I didn't expect you to come to Beijing."
She smiled and said: "What's unexpected about this? I often come to Beijing for meetings. But it's not easy for us to meet here."
I went to sit across from her and said, "Sister, would you like to have a drink?"
She looked at me, "Your people are gone?"
I nodded, "Well, I just sent them off to the plane. They are not mine, but Director Leng of the Education Committee. Now I am the only one left in our group."
She immediately asked me: "You are not the one who stayed with me specifically, are you?"
I shook my head and said, "No. I want to stay and do something. I told Director Leng a long time ago."
She suddenly became happy, "Oh, that's good. Well, let's drink some white wine. The weather is too cold."
I ordered a bottle of Wuliangye. I believe the Wuliangye sold here will not be fake.
Then we started eating and drinking. Lin Yu asked me: "How are things going?"
I shook my head and sighed, "It's very troublesome." Then I told her the whole situation, "Sister, I'm in trouble now. I didn't expect this matter to be so troublesome."
She said: "Trouble is certain and inevitable. It is strange that it is not troublesome. Think about it, no one has thought of doing such a thing before? I think someone must have thought of it, maybe it was the recruitment of other provinces. But
Why didn’t they do it? Is it because it was too difficult?”
I nodded and said, "That's true." Then I asked her, "So, sister, do you have any good ideas?"
She shook her head and said: "I don't have much contact with the Ministry of Education. Governor Huang may be familiar with it. But it's not good for him to come forward on such a matter. After all, he doesn't care about this. By the way, Feng Xiao, didn't you mean
What do you want from me?"
I nodded and was about to ask her about Wu Shuang, but I found her looking at me and smiling, and then I heard her say: "I know, maybe you have something to do, right? Otherwise, you can do it
Why do you want to stay?"
I raised my glass to her and said, "Sister, you are so awesome. You can guess such things."
She smiled and said: "You have been in Beijing for so many days, and if you want to meet a certain woman, you have already met her. Apart from this matter, what else can make you stay? It's a very simple reason."
I suddenly felt embarrassed, "Sister..."
She kept laughing, "Okay, I won't joke with you anymore. Tell me, what is it?"
Then I asked her: "Sister, do you know Wu Shuang from our Jiangnan Provincial Office in Beijing?"
She looked at me in surprise, "We know her. How? What is your relationship with her? She is a beautiful woman."
I hurriedly said: "Sister, you misunderstood. I only met her after arriving in Beijing this time. She is a classmate of the director of our recruitment department. She is making arrangements for us this time when we come to Beijing."
Where are the vehicles?”
She looked at me and smiled, "Then why did you suddenly ask about her? Oh, she asked you for something, right? No way? We just met, why would she ask you to do something?"
I looked at her and it was obvious that she was a little jealous, so I hurriedly told her what happened, and then I said: "Sister, I am really in a bind now. Since she made such a condition,
I had no choice but to come find you."
She nodded and said: "So that's it. It seems that this woman is not simple. But...it's so strange..."
I looked at her doubtfully, "Sister, what's so strange about this?"
She shook her head and said: "Well, it doesn't matter if I tell you, but you must not tell it outside?"
I hurriedly said: "Sister, don't you still believe me? I promise I won't tell anyone."
She then said: "I heard that she seems to have a good relationship with Governor Lu of our province. Do you understand what I mean? Well, that's true. Governor Lu must be reluctant to let her leave here. That's why she found your disciple
Already."
Of course I understood what she meant, "Sister, you are talking about the deputy governor in charge of culture, right? I have met him."
She nodded, "Feng Xiao, this matter was originally very simple, but it becomes difficult when it involves provincial leaders. Think about it, if I made arrangements for her, what would Governor Lu think?
It’s best that we don’t get involved in things like this.”
I thought about it and said, "Sister, I think this matter needs to be looked at from a different angle. Now that Wu Shuang has proposed that she wants to leave the Beijing Office, this in itself shows that she has already had a relationship with Governor Lu.
There is a rift, no, there is another possibility, that is, it is not convenient for Governor Lu to come forward to help her. If he wants to come forward, this matter will not be easy for him? What if you arranged Wu Shuang's matter
, maybe Governor Lu will thank you secretly. Do you think so? Let’s think about it from another angle. If Governor Lu and her really have a rift, then Governor Lu will want her to leave Beijing.
After all, it’s the same reason, he doesn’t want others to talk about their relationship, so he’s unwilling to come forward.”
She immediately laughed, "What you said seems to make sense. But I don't want to help Governor Lu, but I want to help you."
I was immediately pleasantly surprised, "Sister, you agreed?"
She sighed: "Feng Xiao, I just lied to you. In fact, this Wu Shuang has a good relationship with Governor Huang. Hey! Teacher Huang is good at everything else, but when it comes to women... forget it.
, I won’t say it anymore. But Feng Xiao, what you just said reminded me. I can handle this matter right away, which can be regarded as helping Teacher Huang. It seems that it is really inconvenient for him to come forward to handle this matter. He also
It’s hard to tell me about this, because after all, he doesn’t understand me.”
I didn't expect that things would be like this, so I was stunned immediately.
Lin Yu continued: "It is definitely inappropriate to arrange for Wu Shuang to come to you. Well, it is very appropriate to let her go to a county to be the county magistrate. It is a level transfer, but
The responsibilities and powers are increased, and the arrangement of division-level cadres does not need to be studied by the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee. Well, that’s it.”
She was talking there alone, somewhat as if talking to herself.
I looked at her but didn't dare to interrupt. I waited for her to finally come and talk to me. Then she smiled and said to me: "There happens to be a place now. You should discuss this matter with Wu Shuang first. If she feels
I will arrange this immediately if possible."
I asked: "Sister, can you tell me? Which county is it specifically?"
She smiled and said to me: "This is your hometown."
I was immediately surprised, and at the same time my heart sank. I immediately realized something: Governor Huang started to attack Kang Demao. But I couldn't help but ask her: "What about Kang Demao?"
She said: "Governor Huang's idea is that it is best to arrange him in another place. Doesn't he enjoy the treatment of a deputy department? Then give him a deputy department-level practical position. Now the files in our province
The bureau is short of a deputy director. It would be a good fit for him to go there."
I immediately understood that this was clearly a rise and fall. Although the Provincial Archives Bureau is a department-level unit, Kang Demao's real power would be almost gone, and maybe he would stay in that position for the rest of his life.
. And there is another advantage of this arrangement, that is, Kang Demao will not do anything extraordinary because of this, so he has to suffer the loss quietly. In any case, his level is still maintained.
?What’s more, he is still so young and will always continue to have hope in his heart.
If I were Kang Demao, I would definitely have to behave myself, stay in that position and wait for the opportunity.
At this moment, my heart suddenly felt uncomfortable, and I felt even more ashamed of Kang Demao. (To be continued)
