Family connections: From special recruitment by the county committee to the pinnacle of power

It's not that Zhang Juan has any prejudice against Xu He. The problem is that Xu He has very poor interpersonal relationships in the secretariat, which shows that he can't even maintain the most basic interpersonal relationships.

It is clearly inappropriate to have such a person liaise with companies.

Previously, there weren't many decent enterprises in Yutong County, only some small workshops. Xu He could tolerate the low work efficiency.

However, with the establishment of several major factories, the importance of connecting with enterprises has become apparent.

We must assign someone who is competent to this task.

Otherwise, Zhang Juan would be under immense pressure from constant complaints.

Wang Yuwen smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, Director Zhang, I'll readjust the positions as soon as I get back."

Zhang Juan nodded and said, "Okay, by the way, has everything been resolved at Weimin Parts Factory?"

Wang Yuwen stood up and said, "It's almost done. We just need the business and environmental stamps. It should be ready for production in about half a month."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Juan nodded in relief and waved to Wang Yuwen.

Wang Yuwen then quickly left Zhang Juan's office.

Just before the end of the workday, Du Xinyang rushed back to his office and gave Wang Yuwen a report on the situation at Weimin Parts Factory before returning to his seat.

"Everyone, please pause what you're doing."

Not long after, Wang Yuwen walked out of the office with a serious expression, clapped his hands lightly twice, and spoke loudly to everyone.

Everyone, including Lao Shen, looked up at Wang Yuwen.

Wang Yuwen glanced at Xu He and said, "Comrade Xu He, from now on, you no longer need to be in charge of enterprise liaison work. Quickly hand over your work to Comrade Du Xinyang."

What?

Xu He's mind went blank for a moment, then he stood up and said to Wang Yuwen, "Section Chief, I..."

Before Xu He could finish speaking, Wang Yuwen frowned and said, "Comrade Xu He, I know you've been working in this position for four or five years."

"However, considering your abilities in all aspects, I think you should learn more diverse skills. Starting tomorrow, you will take over from Comrade Chu Nan and be mainly responsible for meeting notifications, document receipt and dispatch, and duty roster arrangements."

"Comrade Chu Nan will be in charge of Comrade Du Xinyang's current work."

"Everyone's job isn't static, and everyone needs diverse learning and development."

After saying that, Wang Yuwen didn't give Xu He a chance to speak and turned around and walked back to his office.

The entire office was silent for a full minute.

Su Jie, Xu Meijing, Jiang Yuan, Lao Shen, and the others all looked at Xu He and Du Xinyang with surprise.

If Section Chief Wang's reassignment of Xu He was entirely his own fault, then what was Du Xinyang's motive?

Anyone can see that Du Xinyang's attitude towards Xu He has undergone a complete 180-degree turn recently. It's impossible for someone like Du Xinyang, who doesn't act without self-interest, to suddenly become so enthusiastic towards someone.

Although everyone had some doubts before, now even a fool could see that Du Xinyang was aiming for Xu He's position.

This is a very tough job, what is Du Xinyang trying to achieve?

Xu He's current position in the entire secretariat is also very awkward.

Putting him in charge of meeting notifications, document receipt and dispatch, and duty roster arrangements is just marginalizing him, isn't it?

Typically, these logistical support positions are reserved for newcomers.

To put it bluntly, it's just a menial job.

The problem is that Xu He is a veteran in the secretariat, someone who has worked there for five or six years. The fact that he is doing odd jobs speaks volumes.

Old Shen sighed helplessly, patted Xu He on the shoulder and said, "Comrade Xu He, Section Chief Wang made this arrangement to take care of you."

"Your child just started kindergarten, which is a worrying time, so I'm trying to ease some of the pressure at work for you."

Upon hearing this, Su Jie pursed her lips and smiled without saying a word.

This is probably the position in the entire department that is furthest from leadership decisions and core written materials. With Section Chief Wang's "favor," Xu He will forever be just a menial worker for the rest of his life.

If an elderly person is asked to do this kind of highly repetitive work, it's tantamount to the leader severely negating their work ability.

This shows that in Section Chief Wang's mind, Xu He was only capable of handling tasks such as receiving and sending documents and arranging shifts; he couldn't do anything else.

Of course, the most confused one was Chu Nan. He had only been working for less than a year, and according to Lao Shen and Su Jie, he would only be able to change positions after new people joined next year.

But how did I end up being transferred to the position that Du Xinyang used to be in without any explanation?

Having achieved his goal, Du Xinyang sighed dramatically, saying, "Sigh, if I had known the section chief would arrange things this way, I wouldn't have helped him."

"Everyone knows that connecting with companies is the most tiring and difficult job. This time it's really tough."

As he spoke, Du Xinyang shook his head and sighed helplessly. The problem was that his acting skills were several levels below Xu Hansheng's.

Even Su Jie could see the genuine joy in Du Xinyang's eyes.

The corners of his mouth are harder to suppress than an AK; they just keep turning upwards.

Xu He raised his head blankly, glaring at Du Xinyang with a face full of resentment, and said, "You bastard Du, you tricked me!"

No matter what, Xu He has been influenced by this culture for several years. If he still can't understand this by now, then he's a fool.

Regardless of his motives, Du Xinyang was clearly plotting against him!

He was immediately relegated to a support role, and his life was over!

All of this is thanks to Du Xinyang!

The more Xu He thought about it, the angrier he became. He even disregarded the occasion and let out a roar.

Du Xinyang looked at Xu He with a surprised expression and said, "Comrade Xu He, how could you think of me like that?"

"When did I ever betray you? You saw it yourself. At noon, Director Zhang got angry about this, and even Section Chief Wang was implicated."

"No matter what, the work of liaising with companies is the responsibility of our secretariat. I can't just stand by and watch you keep making mistakes, can I?"

"If you really anger Director Zhang and he goes to Director Jiang to complain, do you think you can still stay in the county government office?"

"I only helped you because I didn't want to see you sent to a rural area for poverty alleviation, so how can you turn around and blame me?"

At this point, Du Xinyang looked at Old Shen with a wronged expression and said, "Section Chief Shen, you are the most senior and fair person in our group. Please judge this matter. Am I cheating him or helping him by doing this?"

Before Lao Shen could speak, Su Jie spoke first: "Alas, Xiao Du meant well. Originally, this matter had nothing to do with Xiao Du."

"They ran around all afternoon, look how tired Xiao Du is, covered in sweat, and in the end he still has to clean up your mess?"

"Don't blame everything on others. It's been ten days, and we still haven't gotten two stamps. How can Director Zhang not be angry? Director Wang has only been in our department for about half a month, and look how badly Director Zhang scolded him for this!"

"If I were Director Wang, I would also have to consider whether I should replace him with someone else."

"Xiao Xu, I'm not trying to criticize you, but you should always look for the cause within yourself. You can't just push the blame onto others without understanding the situation. What do you say, Section Chief Shen?"
