The flowers in the factory of rebirth are too fierce

Chapter 1379: Keep a respectful distance

The welcome dinner was scheduled at a Northeastern restaurant near Zhongguancun. The name of the restaurant was also very unpretentious, called Northeastern Family.

Just from the detail of booking a hotel, you can see the emotional intelligence of Meng Xiangqing, director of the general office of the large-scale working committee. Li Zhenshan is from the Northeast, and Lin Zhiyuan, the protagonist of the welcome dinner, is also from the Northeast, so he must choose a Northeastern restaurant tonight.

At 6:30 pm, Lin Zhiyuan took Li Zhenshan's car to the hotel.

Meng Xiang cleared three adjacent private rooms.

Since Wu Dingguo did not come, six committee leaders, plus tonight's protagonists Lin Zhiyuan, Meng Xiangqing, and two female department heads, Wang Bing, director of the Department of Finance, and Lian Changhong, director of the Policy and Regulation Bureau, sat in the largest private room.

The other nineteen cadres at deputy department level and above sat in the remaining two private rooms.

Li Zhenshan first said a few clichés, nothing more than welcoming Lin Zhiyuan's arrival, and then he said that everyone has been working hard recently and took this opportunity to reward everyone present.

The banquet began. Everyone took a sip together, and then started chatting while eating.

Lin Zhiyuan didn't talk much. On his first day at work, he was still observing the colleagues around him.

He found that the drinking bureaus of large agencies were indeed different from those at the grassroots level. They were much more gentle and elegant. Even Chi Qingsheng, known as the Bacchus of large-scale working committees, would only take a big sip when raising a glass, not even a third of it.

This is completely different from the drinking style of Legang. Once the gangsters in Legang get drunk, they are like committing collective suicide. They all hold the determination to die, drink until the glass is dry, and go to charity generously.

The four deputy directors plus Song Shi each toasted to Lin Zhiyuan, all with a shallow sip. After finishing the drink, Lin Zhiyuan's glass was still more than half full.

About twenty minutes later, the heads and deputy heads of other private rooms came over in pairs to toast, like a revolving lantern.

"We would like to toast Assistant Lin. We have heard that Assistant Lin is very capable. We all want to learn from it." Wang Bing and Qiu Aiju from the Finance Department are both lesbians. Although their glasses are filled with white wine, they have drunk There was basically no change after that, just like a dragonfly skimming the water.

Wang Bing is in her forties this year, and Qiu Aiju is in her thirties. They were both considered beauties when they were young. Even now, they are still mature women, and their charm is still there. But think about it, there are basically no ugly female cadres in big agencies. . Both of them are employees of the old State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Bureau. They can be regarded as sitting on the large-scale working committee. They also hold the financial power of the committee. They are roles that can only befriended but cannot be offended.

After the toast from the Finance Department, Lian Changhong and Liu Yu from the Policy and Regulation Bureau also came over.

"Assistant Lin, we would like to toast you too."

These two are also lesbians and legal professionals. Liu Yu, who is thirty-eight years old this year, has a doctorate in law. No wonder he became a deputy department-level cadre at the age of less than forty.

Meng Xiangqing and Bai Yuquan from the general office also came to toast.

"Assistant Lin, the general office is here to serve everyone. If you have anything to do in the future, just ask me."

Wave after wave, after the chiefs and deputies of the eleven subordinate departments finished their toasts, Lin Zhiyuan's glass of white wine just hit the bottom.

Li Zhenshan raised his wrist to check the time. Just such a small movement made everyone at the table put down their chopsticks.

This is the sensitivity of staff in large agencies. The corner of the leader's mouth twitched, and they all had to think hard about what the meaning was.

Li Zhenshan looked at Meng Xiangqing, "Lao Meng, is there a new graduate student from Renmin University in your general office who has good writing skills?"

Meng Xiangqing stood up immediately, "Director, yes, Xiao Zhou came in in July and is currently responsible for material work in the general office. His writing skills are indeed very solid."

"I just remembered something. This time, our committee members followed the joint inspection team to conduct local investigation and supervision. There are quite a lot of reports that need to be drafted after coming back. We need a comrade with good writing skills to follow. So let's just let Xiao Zhou, go ahead! You can also share Assistant Lin’s work and let him attend tomorrow’s meeting.”

Meng Xiangqing immediately replied politely, "Okay, director, I will inform him to attend the meeting tomorrow."

The conversation between the two lasted only more than a minute. During this period, Li Zhenshan did not even look at Lin Zhiyuan, but Lin Zhiyuan immediately understood and understood that Li Zhenshan was sending a secretary to him in disguise.

This time he participated in the joint inspection team, and he was the team leader, and the final summary report must be drafted by him.

Over the years, Xue Zhaokuan had done all the writing work for him. Lin Zhiyuan had not written for a long time, and Li Zhenshan was trying to reduce his burden.

After all, he is his eldest brother and knows how to care for others.

The several committee leaders sitting here are all smart people, and they immediately guessed Li Zhenshan's true intention.

Lin Zhiyuan is not senior enough to send a secretary, so Li Zhenshan is using this method to help his old subordinates.

Seeing through it but not telling it off, these people just smiled and didn't say anything.

"Okay, it's almost time. There is still work to be done tomorrow. Let's disperse!" Li Zhenshan gave an order, and the banquet was over.

Everyone stood at the door of the restaurant and said goodbye for a long time. Lin Zhiyuan waited until the end, took a taxi and left the Northeastern Restaurant.

After getting in the car, Lin Zhiyuan took out his mobile phone and dialed Bai Yuquan's number.

"Yuquan, is it convenient to speak?"

"Conveniently, I'm in the taxi."

"What's the origin of that Xiao Zhou?" Lin Zhiyuan knew that in a large organization like a large working committee, no one who could come in was simple. Li Zhenshan's intention was very clear. He wanted to assign Xiao Zhou to him to perform the duties of secretary. He had to know the details of this person.

Xiao Zhou is from the General Office, and Bai Yuquan is the deputy director of the General Office, so he should know him well.

"Xiao Zhou's background is relatively simple. He has a master's degree in management from the National People's Congress. He just graduated this year. The large-scale working committee is facing open recruitment at several famous universities in Yanjing this year. Xiao Zhou's mentor and Deputy Secretary Song were former alumni. It is because of this He came in through a high-level relationship, but the young man is indeed very capable, discerning, and very hard-working.”

After listening to Bai Yuquan's words, Lin Zhiyuan's heart returned to his stomach. What he fears most is that Xiao Zhou is a relative of someone in the committee. If that is the case, wouldn't all his secrets be known to others?

Lin Zhiyuan hung up the phone, leaned his head back on the chair, closed his eyes, and began to quietly recall many details of today's dinner.

The words and expressions of the leaders, the words of the heads of subordinate departments when they came to toast...

At the end of the memory, even Lin Zhiyuan sighed.

Working in a big agency is really tiring!

After returning home, Lin Zhiyuan discovered. The lights in the living room were still on, and Su Qiancheng was still watching TV.

He walked in and said, "Grandpa, are you still up so late?"

"I've been waiting for you." Su Qiancheng looked at Lin Zhiyuan and patted the mahogany chair next to him with his hand. "Come, sit down. How do you feel about your first day at work today?"

Lin Zhiyuan also wanted to talk to Su Qiancheng about these things. The old man has worked in official circles all his life, and his political wisdom is beyond his reach, so he must learn from him.

"Grandpa, everyone is very polite to me, but except for a few, I can see the attitude towards me on their faces, and they keep away from me."
