Liu graduated from an accounting school and entered the company and worked hard for more than ten years. Because he is honest and not good at taking the "upper-level route", he has never been promoted or reused.
In the spring of this year, on the eve of General Manager Li's retirement, he suddenly thought of the unknown Da Liu, and his conscience made him realize that the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he could not be blamed. Comrades younger than Liu in the company have come up from behind and taken leadership positions, but he is still a top soldier, standing still. Although Liu's ability and performance are mediocre, he has worked diligently for so many years and has worked hard without any credit. Don't treat your old comrade too badly! Therefore, Mr. Li nominated and after collective discussion and decision by the company's senior management, Da Liu was appointed as the deputy chief of the finance department.
Not long after, Mr. Li retired to the second line and the new Mr. Lu took office. Of course, Mr. Lu was no exception to the "three things that a new official should do when he takes office", and he soon launched a series of shocking reform plans. One of the measures that frightens some comrades the most is to re-allocate middle-level positions of principal and deputy cadres in the company and implement "competitive recruitment and elimination of the last positions."
Recently, Da Liu has been feeling annoyed, sighing from time to time about his bad luck and bumpy career.
It took a lot of effort to get to the deputy department level, but after only a few days, he was about to become a prostitute! Once an emperor and a courtier, if he failed in the election and returned to the starting point, then his life would be completely over!
On this day, Liu came home from get off work with a slouched head. Seeing his lost look, his daughter-in-law Chunmei asked with a smile: "Chief Liu, what happened to you? Tell me about it." Liu was feeling uncomfortable and wanted to find a close friend to talk to. Taking this opportunity, he opened up the conversation and poured out all the troubles in his heart. After hearing this, my wife said cheerfully: "I thought it was no big deal. Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. It's your chance to be lucky and get promoted and make a fortune."
Da Liu smiled bitterly and said angrily: "You're kidding me! I don't know how to flatter the leader. I don't even know where the door of Mr. Lu's house opens.
You will be promoted and make a fortune, just dream! You will be lucky if you are not eliminated by them!"
Chunmei curled her lips and smiled:
"Look at your bearish look! Other leaders dare not say that, as for the new boss, as long as I take action, I will definitely take him down!"
"Are you bragging?" Da Liu didn't believe it at all. My daughter-in-law and Mr. Lu have never met. How can an ugly woman in her thirties be able to get Mr. Lu, who has a high
weight?
Chunmei rolled her eyes at him angrily, and said sternly: "How about you stop bragging and show off your skills? I'll call Mr. Lu's house later and tell him about your candidacy for section chief. I think it's possible!"
Liu was still hesitant and wanted to know more. The mother-in-law waved her hands with a mysterious look on her face: "Stop talking! The specific details of this matter will be kept secret for the time being, and I will tell you later. Just wait and see, my Chief Liu!"
After dinner, Da Liu was busy clearing the table. Chunmei hid in her room alone and talked on the phone, chattering for a long time...
The next day, Liu followed his wife's instructions and came to Mr. Lu's office with an uneasy mood to apply for the position of chief of the finance department.
Knocked on the door and went in. Da Liu saw Mr. Lu lying listlessly on his back on the leather seat. His face was ashen and his eyes were dark. He probably didn't sleep well last night. This pair of "panda eyes" stared straight at Da Liu with strange eyes, as if he was looking at an alien.
After being stunned for a moment, Mr. Lu came back to his senses and forced out an awkward smile. He took the registration form from Liu's hand and said slowly: "Chief Liu, your wife told me everything about you, and I will consider it." While talking, he rubbed his temples and yawned a few more times. Da Liu quickly said goodbye and left.
According to the company's plan, mid-level cadre positions can only be held after passing three exams. In the first public opinion poll, Liu ranked in the middle. In the second business knowledge test, Da Liuli came out on top. The third interview completely "roasted" Liu to death!
That morning, Mr. Lu personally presided over the interview. The first few competitors delivered eloquent impromptu speeches, winning rounds of warm applause.Da Liu then appeared. He went up to the podium for the first time in his life, and when he saw all the eyes directed at him, he was so nervous that he trembled all over. He just made the opening remarks, "When a cadre should talk less nonsense and do more," he panicked and forgot all the following lines... The incoherent and confusing speech ended hastily, and Da Liu slipped off the stage as if he was running away...
Da Liu was extremely upset. He hated himself for being clumsy and tongue-tied, unable to get on the stage, and living up to his wife's best wishes for her husband to become a successful man. But now that the matter has come to this, I can only sigh: Thirty years of fame and dust.
One afternoon a few days later, Mr. Lu called Da Liu to the office. He gave up his seat and poured water with a very enthusiastic attitude. Then, he said with a smile: "Brother Liu, I'm so happy to congratulate you, it's settled that you will be the chief of the financial section!"
Suddenly, Liu felt ecstatic in his heart, his mind was dizzy, his body was light and airy, and he felt as if he was flying in the clouds. He composed himself and stammered some words of gratitude. Mr. Lu was honest and introduced some situations.
Originally there was no hope for Liu. Several other judges were very dissatisfied with his interview performance. But Mr. Lu believed that Comrade Liu was as wise as a fool, his speech was concise and concise, and he got to the point. One sentence could be worth ten or a hundred sentences. The finance section chief should choose a comrade who "talks less and does more". If the people in charge of finance are not strict and the economic secrets in the company are leaked to the outside, how much trouble will it cause at work? This is a major issue related to the stability and unity of the enterprise. In the end, Mr. Lu made the decision to choose him despite all the opinions.
Liu Yijin has returned to his "home", and his wife has already prepared a celebration banquet. After a few glasses of wine, he talked with tears of gratitude about Director Chen's kindness. Unexpectedly, Chunmei burst out laughing and said: "Silly boy, there is no pie in the sky. Without my behind-the-scenes operation, you can't be the section chief!"
Chunmei's words shocked Da Liu. Mr. Lu once worked as a substitute teacher before he became successful. Later, he was dismissed from the school for molesting a female student named Wang Li (without success). Chunmei happens to be Wang Li's cousin. This matter has been gathering dust for a long time, and now almost no one except the person involved knows about it. That night, Chunmei announced her home address on the phone and brought up old things again. Mr. Lu was so frightened. He understood that if his unspeakable secret were to spread, the consequences would be disastrous. With the handle in someone else's hand, Mr. Lu had no choice but to bow his head and obey Chunmei's orders.
Da Liu woke up from his dream. After thinking about it, he felt that everything had become weird. He murmured to himself: If you can get promoted through crooked ways, what's wrong with this society?
