After thinking for a while, Liang Jian decided to first meet with the people from the media company to which the reporter belonged. Shumilou couldn't think of a good way at the moment, so he could only stabilize these people first. The company's information, Tian
It was mentioned in Wang’s information, and several key figures were also mentioned. One is the editor-in-chief of the media, named Qin Ke, a woman, 39 years old. The other is the financial director of the company, named Wu Dawei, 46
Years old, male.
There was Qin Ke's contact number on the information, but not Wu Dawei's. Liang Jiangang was about to call Qin Ke and wanted to make an appointment to meet and chat. As soon as the number was entered into the mobile phone, the landline suddenly rang.
Liang Jian was so engrossed in thinking about this matter that he was startled. When he came to his senses, he immediately answered the phone.
"Liang Jian? I'm Zhu Mingtang, please come to my office." Zhu Mingtang suddenly called Liang Jian. Liang Jian was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered the previous article. It couldn't be at this time.
Is Mingtang going to revise the manuscript?
Liang Jian looked at the information on the table and shook his head helplessly. If Zhu Mingtang really wanted to revise the manuscript at this time, Liang Jian could only revise the manuscript for Zhu Mingtang first. Fortunately, the manuscript matter should not take long.
Time. In this regard, Liang Jian still has this confidence.
Liang Jian put the information into the drawer and put it away, then locked the drawer and felt relieved.
Then, he took a pen and notebook and went to Zhu Mingtang. When he arrived at the Organization Department, he first went to Jiang Shihuan's office to take a look. The door was locked and Jiang Shihuan was not there, so Liang Jian had to go directly to Zhu Mingtang.
When the secretary saw Liang Jian coming, he came out to lead Liang Jian and opened the door for Liang Jian. After Liang Jian went in, he closed the door and left.
"Here you go, sit down." Zhu Mingtang raised his head and glanced at him, then immediately went to look at the documents on the table.
After Liang Jian sat down, he didn't even raise his head. He reached out and pushed a folder next to him in front of Liang Jian and said, "This is the manuscript you wrote. I changed it. Take a look. It's changed."
Are there any problems with those?"
Liang Jian glanced at him, but he still lowered his head. He opened the folder, and on the first page, Zhu Mingtang made two changes. Neither of them were major changes, just two words. On the second page
On the third page, there are no changes. On the third page, there are two more places... After reading the whole article, there are a total of seven places that have been changed. Except for one change of a sentence, the others are all one word, or even one.
Changes in words.
Liang Jian had to admit that these changes made by Zhu Mingtang did make people feel that his tone was more tactful, but it did not mean that Liang Jian's language was not good. This may have something to do with the different personalities of the two. Liang Jian was biased in speaking and doing things.
Zhu Mingtang prefers to be more direct, so his language may be a little tougher, but Zhu Mingtang prefers to be more euphemistic, so this is also reflected in the manuscript.
After Liang Jian finished reading, as soon as he put it down, Zhu Mingtang raised his head and asked him: "How is it? Is there anything inappropriate?"
Zhu Mingtang said this very politely, so Liang Jian couldn't help but understand, and immediately said: "No. Those things you changed are all things I didn't consider carefully enough."
Zhu Mingtang smiled and said: "You have thought very carefully about this article. To be honest, I did not expect that you could write this article to this extent. You surprised me."
This evaluation was something Liang Jian did not expect, or it should be said that he did not expect that Zhu Mingtang would say such a high evaluation in front of him. Liang Jian was a little embarrassed and said: "Thank you for your recognition."
Zhu Mingtang smiled and said, "Are you free tomorrow night?"
Liang Jian was stunned for a moment.
"I would like to treat you and Mr. Xiang to dinner, how about it?" Zhu Mingtang asked with a smile.
After Liang Jian came to his senses, he suddenly felt happy. It seemed that the incident was over in Zhu Mingtang's mind, at least on the surface. Liang Jian immediately said: "Minister Zhu invites you to dinner, it must be
I have time. However, I don’t know much about my father-in-law, so I’ll call him now and ask.”
"Then there's no need to be in such a hurry. You can ask again when you go back tonight and give me an answer tomorrow morning." Zhu Mingtang said.
"Okay." Liang Jian responded with a smile.
"It's okay, you can go back and do your work."
Liang Jian nodded. After coming out, he couldn't help but feel a little excited. It was definitely a happy event for him to be able to repair the relationship with Zhu Mingtang. As the organization minister, Zhu Mingtang will definitely make progress in the future.
If the relationship with him can be maintained well, it will be beneficial to Liang Jian. Liang Jian feels that if someone gives him a push, it is not impossible for Zhu Mingtang to take the position of Mr. Xiang in the future.
Thinking like this, this mood rarely becomes beautiful. In the past few days, it is rare to feel as relaxed as at this moment. However, after returning to the office, thinking about the incident with the Golden Army, the good mood sank again.
At present, what he needs most is Cai Gen's trust and help. Therefore, the most critical thing at the moment is to find a way to solve this matter.
Before going to see Zhu Mingtang, Liang Jian planned to call Qin Ke to make an appointment. After meeting Zhu Mingtang, Liang Jian changed his mind. He wanted to discuss the matter with his father-in-law first, and of course he did not want Minister Xiang to participate.
I came in just to listen to his advice. If you think about it alone, you will inevitably make some omissions. There is no room for error in this matter, so it’s better to be cautious.
With this thought in mind, Liang Jian packed up his things and went home directly as soon as it was time to get off work.
After arriving home for dinner, Liang Jian played with Tang Li and Nishang for a while, then handed the child to Xiang Jin and Aunt Zhou, and then walked to Minister Xiang who was sitting on the sofa and watching the news.
"Dad, I have something and I would like to hear your opinion." Liang Jian looked at Minister Xiang sincerely.
Minister Xiang glanced at him, stood up, and led the way to the study. Liang Jianli followed immediately.
They entered the study and closed the door. The two sat down on the chairs, facing each other.
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Minister Xiang leaned back in his chair, stared at Liang Jian, and asked.
Liang Jian first told him about Zhu Mingtang's invitation to dinner. After hearing this, Minister Xiang frowned slightly and asked, "Why did Zhu Mingtang invite me, an old man who retired at home, to dinner?"
This was not easy for Liang Jian to answer. He smiled coquettishly and said, "You are a senior in organizational work. He may have some questions that he would like to ask for advice."
Minister Xiang glanced at him and neither said yes nor no. After two seconds of silence, he asked: "Is that all you need to do to ask me to come in?"
"There is one more thing." Liang Jian said hurriedly.
"Then let's talk." Minister Xiang seemed a little impatient.
Seeing him like this, Liang Jian hesitated for a moment, but thinking of the importance of the matter, he spoke out with confidence. After hearing this, Minister Xiang immediately frowned and said, "Liang Jian, why are you so disrespectful?"
Remember the lesson, you have to go into the muddy water, right?"
Liang Jian didn't expect Minister Xiang's reaction to be so intense. He knew that Minister Xiang was in chaos because of his concern, and he also had the anger of hating iron for not becoming steel. While he understood, he was also a little unconvinced. But this time he came to see Minister Xiang.
Those who seek opinions are not here to quarrel. Therefore, if you are not convinced, you can only endure it. Liang Jian took a deep breath and said to Minister Xiang: "Dad, you misunderstood. Please listen to my explanation."
Minister Xiang snorted, but in the end he did not lecture him again and became quiet.
Liang Jian took another deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and then told some of his recent plans and situations. After speaking, he looked at Minister Xiang's slightly solemn expression and waited quietly.
After waiting for about a minute, Minister Xiang suddenly looked at him and asked seriously: "You said you want to compete for the position of Secretary-General of the Municipal Party Committee, are you serious?"
"Yeah." Liang Jian nodded solemnly.
Minister Xiang stared at Liang Jian with a complicated expression in his eyes. After a while, he said: "You should stop interfering in the matter you just mentioned. Cai Gen, I will tell him for you."
Liang Jian was stunned for a moment, and immediately rejected Minister Xiang. He said: "Dad, this time, I want to rely on myself. You can help me once, help me twice, but after all, you can't help me for the rest of my life. I can't help me forever."
It’s up to you, don’t you think?”
"On your own, you are going to offend Guo Mingtai. Can you afford to offend Guo Mingtai?" Minister Xiang glared and scolded. Liang Jian suppressed his emotions and answered as calmly as possible: "Dad, there can definitely be a more tactful way to resolve this matter.
. Please believe me."
"What if not?" Minister Xiang asked.
Liang Jian hesitated for a moment and replied: "If not, I promise not to interfere in this matter. I will find another way to deal with Cai Gen."
After Minister Xiang stared at him for a while, he stopped talking, but his brows furrowed even more tightly.
Liang Jian knew that he must be helping him think of that euphemistic method. Although he sometimes looked harsh, he was actually a hard-spoken person with a soft heart. Otherwise, he would not have saved Liang Jian from fire and water so many times.
.
Liang Jian was grateful to him and respected him, so he wanted to protect him even more. This was one of the reasons why he didn't want Minister Xiang to contact Cai Gen just now.
Mr. Xiang is indeed kind to Cai Gen. However, Cai Gen has been disappointed with Liang Jian, and Mr. Xiang has now retired. If Mr. Xiang opens his mouth again and asks Cai Gen to bet on his future, Cai Gen may not be willing to do so.
Agree. If you don't agree, where will Mr. Xiang's face go? This is definitely a blow to Mr. Xiang. Liang Jian can't bear to let Mr. Xiang bear such a blow. Since he has retired, there are still people who are willing to
If you respect him, you can no longer let him consume the respect for himself.
The two sat in silence in the room for a long time, and then Minister Xiang broke the silence first: "You go out and do whatever you need to do first. I will think about it carefully, and I will tell you when I think of it. In addition, I will get off work tomorrow.
Come pick me up later."
Liang Jian hurriedly said yes.
When they came out of the study, Xiang Jin was about to take Tang Li to take a bath, so Liang Jian went over to help. When the two of them were squatting together to give Tang Li a bath, Xiang Jin suddenly said: "I recently discovered that dad seems to be really old.
"
Liang Jian was stunned for a moment. Thinking of what happened just now, his heart stirred up, but he still pretended to be calm and asked: "Why do you say that?"
At this time, Tang Li suddenly splashed water on Xiang Jin's face. Xiang Jin swallowed the words that came to his lips, looked at Tang Li helplessly, and gave him a gentle scolding.
The topic ended here, but Xiang Jin's words were remembered in Liang Jian's heart.
