Nominal: Who isn't a son-in-law?

Time flies, and more than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

At this time, Chu Shijun temporarily left Baijiang and went to the school.

These past two days have been the graduation period for this short-term training course.

The school, the first teaching building, the teaching hall.

Chu Shijun, Zhong Zhenguo, and others walked over, chatting and laughing.

A poem hangs on the wall: Past events stretch back a thousand years, Cao Cao wields his whip...

Pushing open the door, the group stopped talking and quietly strolled inside.

At this moment, the final written exam is being held inside.

Dressed in a dark suit, Chu Shijun walked calmly into the examination room. His gaze slowly swept across the room, and he spotted an old acquaintance at a glance: Ye Qian.

At that moment, Ye Qian had just finished writing a problem when he heard the door open. Like everyone else, he slightly raised his head and looked towards the doorway.

Upon seeing Zhong Zhenguo and the others, they all felt a chill and lowered their heads to answer the questions seriously.

Ye Qian's gaze met Chu Shijun's, and his heart skipped a beat as the other man approached.

"Old boss, please don't come here!"

Please, please don't come any closer!

Unfortunately, Chu Shijun couldn't hear his true feelings, and even if he did, he wouldn't care.

He paused and looked at each of the passing students before finally stopping beside Ye Qian.

He reached out and snatched a test paper that the other person had already answered, and started looking at it.

Not far away, Zhong Zhenguo and others were doing the same thing.

After glancing at it briefly, Chu Shijun looked down at what Ye Qian was writing, then turned and left.

After they entered, the only sound in the hall was the dense rustling of writing; no one dared to breathe loudly, including the school professors who were proctoring the exam.

Fortunately, Chu Shijun and the others knew they were nervous, so they left after a short while.

The moment the door closed, the trainees all gasped for breath.

They're finally gone. If they hadn't left, they wouldn't have known how to write anymore.

After the exam, the test papers were collected.

After lunch and a short rest, Chu Shijun returned to his office and began reviewing documents.

Each one was made with utmost care.

The comments provided here are not only a summary of the learning process, but also an important reference to be fed back to the local authorities and incorporated into the evaluation of these trainees.

After grading each paper, we came to Ye Qian's paper.

After reviewing the student's school records and course notes, Chu Shijun carefully examined the exam paper and made comments on some of the content.

He then picked up his pen and wrote:

This training program demonstrated a positive attitude, diligence, and critical thinking, resulting in a significant improvement in theoretical knowledge. Participants were able to integrate their thinking with practical local work, showcasing a strong ability to apply their knowledge.

This trainee is calm and pragmatic, with a strong sense of the big picture. It is hoped that after returning to his post, he will continue to deepen his learning, boldly explore new ideas for his work, take into account both development and stability, and make new contributions in fulfilling his duties.

This evaluation is very appropriate for Ye Qian, his former subordinate, as it affirms his strengths and clarifies the direction for the future.

Of course, this is also because the other person answered the test very well and performed well at school.

……

The following morning, the school auditorium was packed to capacity as the graduation ceremony for the short-term training course was held as scheduled.

Chu Shijun, Zhong Zhenguo, Executive Vice President, Director Sheng of the Academic Affairs Department, and others were present.

"Next, let's welcome Secretary Chu Shijun, the Party Secretary of 123456 Garden, Secretary of the Xinjiang Province, part-time professor of the school, and chief instructor of the students, to give a closing speech. Please welcome him."

'Pa pa pa pa'

After each procedure was completed, the host finished speaking, and all eyes turned to the stage.

Chu Shijun stepped onto the podium and said in a deep voice:

"Dear trainees and comrades: The two-month short-term training program for senior cadres has officially concluded today. First of all, on behalf of the school committee, I would like to congratulate all of you on successfully completing all your learning tasks."

'Pa pa pa pa'

"Everyone comes from different positions across the country. Putting aside your busy work, you've come here to recharge and build your skills. The classrooms at the university teach theory, establish beliefs, and broaden horizons. This learning experience is not a 'brand' for your career, but a 'guiding light' on your path to success."

"Over the past two days, I have participated in the examination supervision and reviewed everyone's answer sheets and learning summaries. I can truly see everyone's thinking and progress. After leaving this school, everyone will eventually return to their respective jobs. Here, I would like to offer three points of hope."

"First, solidify the ideological foundation. Internalize the theoretical knowledge learned in school and put it into practice, always maintaining a firm stance and adhering to principles; this is the primary criterion for fulfilling one's duties as an official. Second, insist on integrating learning with application..."

Everyone listened attentively, applauding from time to time.

"The journey is long, and learning is endless. May you all go to your posts with newfound knowledge and insights, and respond to the organization's training and expectations with practical actions and a sense of responsibility. I wish you all the best."

'Pa pa pa pa'

When the speech ended, thunderous applause filled the auditorium, and cameras kept clicking away.

……

After the graduation ceremony, Ye Qian stopped outside and waited.

After Chu Shijun came out, he saw him at a glance, turned to Zhong Zhenguo and said a few words before leaving the crowd and walking over.

"Why are you lingering here instead of waiting to go home?"

"Secretary Chu, I wanted to wait until you were finished with your work so I could say goodbye to you in person."

Ye Qian quickly replied, "Thank you for this valuable opportunity. These two months of study at the school have been very helpful to me."

"It's good that it was helpful; we can't have come all this way for nothing."

Chu Shijun nodded slightly, indicating that they should walk forward, and the two of them headed towards the garden.

"If you can immerse yourself in learning and reflect on what you've learned, then your time here won't have been wasted. Now you are a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee of Handong and the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee of Lüzhou. Your position and level are different now, so your work logic must change accordingly."

"When you were with me in Handong, I was the governor and you were the mayor of Jingzhou. You were excellent at execution and implementation. But now, you are also one of the decision-makers in Handong Province. You can no longer just focus on Luzhou."

As he spoke, he took out a cigarette.

"Secretary Chu, smoking is not allowed here, it will be recorded in your file." Ye Qian looked at the cigarette offered to him with some difficulty.

"It's okay, it won't affect anything after graduation."

Just then, a patrolman happened to pass by. Seeing someone offering him a cigarette, he immediately took out his notebook, intending to go up and ask, but then he saw Chu Shijun and immediately pretended not to have seen anything, turning around and leaving.

Ye Qian was stunned when he saw this scene. Yes, with Chu Shijun around, what was there to be afraid of?

He immediately took the cigarette, lit it for Chu Shijun first, then lit it for himself and took a deep drag.

No kidding, this was really awesome.

Smoking wasn't allowed inside, and there were holidays. Although he could smoke outside, he stubbornly refrained from doing so.

He has been extremely careful lately, and he doesn't go out even during his holidays, lest someone with ulterior motives find fault with him. He can't afford to embarrass Chu Shijun.

This bite is so satisfying!

"I heard you didn't go out during this holiday period?"

Seeing his dazed expression, Chu Shijun found it amusing.

"Hehe, this is a rare opportunity. During the holidays, I spend my time in the school library reading and studying, or asking professors for advice. In addition, I also need to be contacted by people in Luzhou who need to make decisions remotely, so I don't have time to go out."

Ye Qian said with a smile.
