Siheyuan: Happy He Yuzhu

Comrade Lao Xu knocked on the door of Director Xia's office. As the voice inside shouted, please come in. Lao Xu took a deep breath and pushed the door open.

Comrade Xu had to come. As an old investigator, without this sensitivity, he would not be in the position he is in today, becoming the de facto second-in-command of the security department of the steel rolling mill.

But many years of working life have obliterated his former sensitivity.

When Director Xia first arrived at the steel rolling mill, Comrade Xu actually had the idea of ​​​​wrestling with Director Xia.

Therefore, Lao Xu did not fully cooperate with Director Xia's three measures for taking office as a new official. Instead, he made some troubles at the beginning.

According to Lao Xu's idea, these things done by Director Xia will make everyone's anger focus on Director Xia.

It is always a shameful thing for the head of the security department to be beaten up, causing his subordinates to be hindered from doing things in the factory.

When the time comes when he, Old Xu, comes out to be a good person and wipe everyone's butt, then it doesn't matter whether Director Xia appreciates it or not. At least the people below will know who the real person in the security department of the steel rolling mill is.

From Lao Xu's point of view, this could be regarded as a dispute between gentlemen between him and Director Xia, which is basically the case with conflicts in the workplace.

Win, Director Xia is the boss, and he, Old Xu, is in charge of the security department.

If you lose, Director Xia is the boss. From now on, he, Old Xu, will only obey Director Xia's orders.

Things did go as he imagined at the beginning, and the workers in the factory were tortured and there was a surge of public anger. Although Director Xia was careful and accompanied by his drinking buddy, Section Chief Lu. Don't let those who beat black sticks succeed.

However, other logistics departments' counterattacks against the Security Section also made the Security Section's staff have great opinions on Director Xia.

Director Xia was unmoved, but Lao Xu believed that Director Xia's calmness would not last long.

But a phone call this morning completely shocked Lao Xu. His backstage staff called him and asked if Lao Xu wanted to compete for the position of the boss of the security department and if they needed anything for Lao Xu.

The words were full of concern, but hearing it in Lao Xu's ears made him break into a cold sweat.

If Lao Xu had such an idea about this kind of thing, he must first mention it to the person behind him. Only when people agree can we work together.

The meaning of the above phone call is not so much concern as it is questioning. Asked Lao Xu if he was causing trouble, and asked if Lao Xu had found another place.

Lao Xu hurriedly explained to the superiors, and naturally said that he had no intention of replacing Director Xia, and said that he would come to the door to explain face to face.

Unexpectedly, the man above him didn't speak for a long time after listening, and then asked Lao Xu to explain directly to Director Xia.

The last sentence that came over the phone shattered all of Lao Xu's illusions. The man above said: "Old Xu, we must pay attention to unity and don't be used as a weapon."

There is no nonsense in conversations between superiors and subordinates in the workplace. Sometimes a superior's gossip may mean something.

What's more, the above has made it so obvious this time, asking Lao Xu to pay attention to unity, doesn't that mean that what Lao Xu is doing now is already a matter of not paying attention to unity.

Coupled with the fact that the other party rejected Lao Xu's visit to explain, this statement was obvious.

To put it bluntly, everyone is very dissatisfied with Comrade Xu.

Especially the last sentence~Don’t let people be used as gunmen.

If Lao Xu doesn't understand this, then there is no need to work in the workplace.

Lao Xu pushed open the door of the security department boss's office. He came to explain this time. He came to admit defeat this time.

From the moment he stepped into this office today, there were no longer so-called two factions in the steel rolling mill.

The scene did not make Lao Xu too ugly.

Lao Xu did not fully confess to Director Xia what he had done in the past.

This is not children's play, everyone must know the word "knowingly".

In other words, if Director Xia forgives him, then the little tricks Lao Xu did are just small tricks, just a joke.

If Director Xia doesn't forgive, then no matter how fancy what Lao Xu says, it will be useless.

Director Xia will naturally not forgive him. The reason why Director Xia is said to be a simple person is that he only sees enemies and friends.

He didn't care about Lao Xu's petty thoughts.

Instead, after the misunderstanding was resolved, Lao Xu was asked to help analyze two issues.

One is whether Lao Xu's group of people may be related to the Hu Yaya incident.

The other thing is, if they are unlucky in this matter, who will be the biggest beneficiary?

Director Xia said "They are unlucky" and pulled Lao Xu into Director Xia's own camp. At least at this moment, Director Xia's interests and Lao Xu's interests were both integrated.

Lao Xu came in after Qian Zhongda. In fact, his level was almost the same as Qian Zhongda's at the beginning.

Later, Qian Zhongda was promoted to deputy director, while he was still at the department level.

Regarding this, Lao Xu did not feel too aggrieved.

Because Qian Zhongda trusted him very much.

Later, when the Hu Yaya problem arose, although Qian Zhongda went astray during this period, he still took all the responsibilities. .

This gave Comrade Xu the possibility to go further.

As a result, Lao Xia came, and Comrade Lao Xu naturally felt uncomfortable.

If you are uncomfortable, you will easily make mistakes in judgment, and you will be easily deceived by people with ulterior motives.

Old Xu smiled bitterly and said: "It is said that the team leader Zhong Hongqi is the cousin of logistics Zhong Hongmei, but no one in the factory should know that.

As for that, could it be Li? "

While Lao Xu was talking, Director Xia was drawing pictures in his notebook.

In other words, the circles form a closed loop.

When Director Xia did these things, he did not avoid Lao Xu.

So Lao Xu could clearly see the circle representing him, right on the paper.

Now there are three more circles on the paper, namely Deputy Director Li, Zhong Hongmei and Zhong Hongqi.

If you look at their names, it would be easy to think that Zhong Hongqi and Zhong Hongmei are siblings.

But in fact it is not the case. After liberation, when registering their names, many people changed their names to mean red.

For example, Yu Li helped the street office do this.

A new country is naturally the rebirth of its people, so there are many things like changing names.

Otherwise, Yan Jiefang’s name would be inexplicable.

Director Xia asked: "How did you know that the two of them are brother and sister?"

Lao Xu replied: "I met them outside once, Zhong Hongqi said so himself."

Director Xia continued to ask: "What's going on with Zhong Hongqi?"

Lao Xu naturally knew the meaning of Director Xia's question, and he was not prepared to hide it. Especially after experiencing a series of things, Lao Xu, as a veteran investigator, also discovered that some things that were reasonable in the past seemed unreasonable now.

Old Xu thought deeply for a moment and recounted what he knew: "That Zhong Hongqi was a peripheral member of our underground comrades before the liberation. Later, after the security department of the steel rolling mill went through an inspection, all the personnel who had been resettled in Loubancheng were cleared.

In addition to those arranged by the army, we also recruited some from the society.

Zhong Hongqi was directly hired because of his previous performance.

In recent years, his work ability is still worthy of recognition.

As for the previous relationship, it should be there from above.

As for Zhong Hongmei, the situation is ordinary. However, there is one aspect that should be noted. Zhong Hongmei is a widow. It is said that there were no men before liberation. "
