Rebirth of Merry Career

On Wednesday morning, China Merchants held an all-staff meeting. After the director Xie Changzhi made a report, he announced in public that Zhou Jing was appointed as the director of the office. This sudden decision surprised many people on and off the stage.

After all, Zhou Jing has not been here for a long time, including several deputy directors, he is not very familiar with him, and what happened a while ago, only a few people know about it, and it has not been spread in the unit.

Therefore, everyone focused their attention on Zhou Jing. Seeing that too young face, there was a loud buzz in the venue, and everyone whispered and discussed, secretly guessing his origin.

You must know that the director of the Investment Promotion Office is the most important deputy department-level cadre in the unit. He holds a lot of real power in his hands. To a certain extent, he even surpasses the two deputy directors. The competition for this position has always been extremely fierce.

Some time ago, when the news came out that Director Zhang was about to be transferred, the two deputy directors fought openly and secretly for this position, and went around everywhere. Besides those two, Qin Xiaoqian, the beauty of China Merchants, was also a popular candidate in everyone's minds. The voices were very loud, unexpectedly, a dark horse appeared in the sky, and the director's position was snatched away by this tender-faced young man.

"Where did this kid come from, why haven't I seen it before?"

"Of course, you haven't come to work for two months. He works for China Merchants and shares the same office with Qin Xiaoqian."

"Oh, this little boy looks like a young master, isn't he the child of a city leader?"

"Then you don't need to ask, how can you jump so fast without a backstage? This kid must have a deep background. Since his surname is Zhou, he might be the child of Minister Zhou's family from the Organization Department."

"Hey, what kind of world is this? You say that such an older child smells like milk, so he becomes an official. What does he know?"

"Be quiet!" Xie Changzhi frowned, with an expression of displeasure on his face, he knocked on the table and said, "Everyone, please be quiet and maintain discipline in the venue!"

"Thank you, he has only been here for less than half a year, what qualifications does he have to be the director of the office?" In the northwest corner of the venue, a tall and thick man began to question at the top of his voice, and the people next to him also booed and vented their dissatisfaction.

Xie Changzhi's face darkened, and he sneered and said, "Why? It's just because they brought in an investment project of 55 billion for Qingyang City in less than half a month. This alone is enough. Which one of you is not convinced?" , you can completely compare with him, whoever can do it, I can give up my position as director general!"

"What? A 55 billion project!" The audience was shocked. Everyone looked at Zhou Jing with suspicious eyes, as if they were staring at a monster. Now, everyone in the venue fell silent.

The person who can get such a big project is naturally an extraordinary person. I am afraid that the leaders of the municipal party committee do not have this ability. What is the origin of this fledgling young man?

Xie Changzhi turned his head, took a look at Zhou Jing, and then raised his voice and said, "Although Comrade Zhou Jing is young, he has strong professional skills and can unite comrades. After he came to China Merchants to work, he and Comrade Qin Xiaoqian went down to investigate. , put forward a new idea for the city's investment promotion work, which was affirmed by the superior leaders. On this basis, he led a team to Lingnan to attract investment, and successfully brought a 5000 million yuan concrete production and processing project factory, and a 5 million yuan garment processing factory. After the start of these two major projects, it will greatly promote the economic development of our city. For this reason, the city leaders decided to appoint him as the director of the China Merchants Office and give him a heavy reward in material terms. , Alright, now let Director Zhou speak, everyone applauds and welcomes!"

Amidst the sparse applause, Zhou Jing looked around and made a brief speech modestly. He attributed the achievements in attracting investment mainly to the correct leadership of the Party Committee of China Merchants and the hard work of colleagues in the China Merchants Unit. I mentioned Qin Xiaoqian's help and support, and expressed my sincere thanks.

Zhou Jing sat on the rostrum with a stern face, talking eloquently, and the content of his speech was even and orderly. Although he didn't look like a cardinal, people could intuitively feel that he was calm and capable, humble and cautious, and he was not that young at all. The arrogance of Dezhi made many people who had doubts put away their contempt.

After the meeting, Zhou Jing went to the director's office first, chatted with the director Xie Changzhi for a while, exchanged work opinions, and then visited the offices of several deputy directors one by one, and then returned to the new office. This office is not big, only 20 Duoping, there are two desks inside, one belongs to him, the new director, and the other belongs to the internal staff Liu Su'e.

Liu Su'e is not very old, only in her 20s. She is a college student assigned just last year. It is just because China Merchants has already overstaffed her, and she is still a temporary worker, so she is very active in her work. When the bureau reported, she was the one who brought Zhou Jing into the office of the bureau chief Xie Changzhi. Unexpectedly, in just a few months, Zhou Jing became her immediate boss.

"Director, please drink tea!" Liu Su'e took the tea and put it on Zhou Jing's desk. Looking at the leader who was a few years younger than herself, she suddenly felt the urge to laugh, but she didn't dare, so she He felt a little uncomfortable, and his expression was extremely strange.

"Thank you." Zhou Jing smiled, took the tea, took a sip, nodded, and said softly, "Xiao Liu, you are not bad."

Liu Su'e pursed her lips and smiled, and said respectfully: "Director, whatever happens in the future, just arrange it, and I will try my best to do it well."

"Okay." Zhou Jing nodded with a smile, looked at Liu Su'e who was hesitant to speak, put down his cup, and said with a pleasant face, "Why, there are other things?"

Liu Su'e nodded vigorously, and said somewhat cautiously: "That's right, in order to celebrate Director Gao's promotion, I want to find some colleagues and go out to have fun at night. I hope you can join in."

Zhou Jing was also very happy when he heard this. He wanted to take this opportunity to get in touch with the people below and get to know each other better, so he smiled and said, "That's a good idea. Where are you going?"

Seeing that he didn't refuse, Liu Su'e immediately became happy, so she bit her lip and asked tentatively, "Director, how about going dancing? There is a new dance hall opened in the West Market. The interior decoration is quite good, and the sound system is the most advanced in the city." Yes, many young people love to go.”

Zhou Jing smiled slightly, and pondered: "Yes, but I have to declare in advance that my dancing skills are third-rate and I often step on my feet."

Liu Su'e giggled, and said softly: "It's okay, as long as you like, we can often go there to practice, and we can dance very well in less than a month!"

"Okay, you can go and have a look when you are free in the future." Zhou Jing nodded with a smile, watched Liu Su'e go out, then picked up the key from the table, opened the filing cabinet at the back door, picked out a few documents, and carefully looked up.

After a long while, he put down the materials, lit a cigarette, frowned and took a few puffs, his face showing a hint of joy. To be honest, he never thought that he could become the director of the Investment Promotion Office within a few months. Although I have been reminding myself to be modest and prudent, and not to get carried away, after the appointment, I still feel a little elated, and a sense of accomplishment arises spontaneously.

Although the promotion in the officialdom depends on the background and the support of a huge relationship, but it is undeniable that if you do not have the ability to do things that are commendable, it is difficult to get the attention of the superiors just by flattering you. , get the opportunity for promotion.

"Work hard and work smart, and strive to reach a higher level next year!" Zhou Jing touched the desk calendar, took a pen to write this line of words on it, and set a new goal for himself. A man who became the county magistrate at the age of 26, frowned slightly, and wrote on the desk calendar: "Within seven years, we must achieve this goal!"

Of course, Zhou Jing is very clear that compared with those high-ranking officials, officials from civilian backgrounds are inherently insufficient in terms of political resources. However, there are many examples of people who were born in civilians and finally succeeded in becoming provincial and ministerial officials. Yes, don't belittle yourself.

Since ancient times, heroes have not asked where they came from, and so have officials. As long as they can seize the opportunity, they can still rise as the times require and rise to the top. At this time, he is full of ambition and full of confidence in his heart.

After smoking one cigarette, Zhou Jing took a sip of tea, got up and went out, and pushed open the door diagonally opposite. When the three people in the China Merchants Unit saw him coming in, they all pursed their lips and smiled.

He Yufeng rolled his eyes even more, and said half-jokingly: "Director, treat us, if you don't treat us well today, I will shake off all your things."

Zhou Jing was slightly taken aback, and asked curiously, "What's going on?"

"That's too much!" Lin Fusheng put down the brush in his hand, took a sip of tea with a big tea mug, and said with a smile: "Not to mention playing chess during work hours, and even peeking at Playboy, I'll keep the evidence for you! "

Zhou Jing couldn't help laughing, shook his head and said, "No wonder I feel that two books are missing, the feelings are taken away by you."

Lin Fusheng nodded, and said with a smile: "Those two books are good, and I'll keep them as souvenirs. Mr. Director, we have already discussed it. We will go out to eat pot tonight and celebrate."

Zhou Jing smiled, pulled up a chair, sat next to Qin Xiaoqian, and said softly: "Okay, bring the family with you, after dinner, let's go to the ballroom again, Xiao Liu is busy, I want to find some colleagues to dance and get together .”

He Yufeng smiled and said, "I won't go dancing. I've gained weight after drinking cold water all these years, and I've gotten fatter every year. I went to the dance hall and was laughed at for no reason. It's Xiaoqin who went. She went, sure." To become a star, Xiaoman twisted his waist and fascinated a lot of people."

Qin Xiaoqian giggled, and sighed: "I haven't gone to dance for a long time, I just skipped for a while at school. Speaking of which, I still miss that time."

Zhou Jing hurriedly said with a smile: "Sister Qin, don't just miss it, call Captain Zhang at night, let's go together, and relive the good old days!"

He Yufeng smiled, and interjected from the side: "Hey, Director Zhou, why are you so old-fashioned when you talk?"

Qin Xiaoqian also smiled, shook her head and said: "Wuyang probably can't go there. Recently, there are a lot of cases in the city bureau. He has to be busy until late every day. Sometimes, he simply lives in the unit and doesn't come back all night. .”

He Yufeng frowned, and reminded in a low voice: "Xiao Qin, men have to watch carefully, it's okay not to go home, after a long time, it's easy to change your mind."

Qin Xiaoqian's expression changed slightly, but she brushed her hair with her hands, and said nonchalantly: "Impossible, Wu Yang has a lot of shortcomings, that is, he does his duty and never messes around outside."

He Yufeng nodded, and said with a smile: "That's good, actually think about it, with such a beautiful wife at home, it must be that my heart is not enough, why would I go out to hunt wild food?"

When Zhou Jing heard this, he felt a 'thump' in his heart, and suddenly remembered Xiaona from the bathing center. Although he was suspicious, he couldn't point it out, so he could only laugh and say, "Okay, I'll treat him to a drink alone some other day. Speaking of which, It’s been a while since I saw Team Zhang.”

Qin Xiaoqian smiled wryly, frowned and said, "There's no way, he's a workaholic, once he gets busy, he can't even take care of his wife and children."
