Chapter 274: Xu Damao Being Used as a Chess Pawn

"Well, since you have figured out everything about this matter, I will go with Lao Hu tomorrow to sound out the situation. As for whether it can be done, it all depends on God's will."

Xu Damao's face showed a flattering smile again: "Then I'll leave it to you, Chief. I'll send the small bowl to your home in the evening."

After promising Xu Damao what he wanted, Wang Gensheng really took him to heart the next day.

When talking to Lao Hu, Wang Gensheng mentioned Xu Damao's promotion.

"Brother, this is Director Zhao's idea. I just relayed Director Zhao's original words to Xu Damao. I don't know exactly what the director thinks."

"Then I'll trouble you, Brother Hu. I'll go ask again."

Unexpectedly, things would become so troublesome. For the rooster bowl, Wang Gensheng had to make another trip. After saying goodbye to Lao Hu, Wang Gensheng turned to Director Zhao.

"Gensheng, come here. If you come one day later, I will move to the factory director's office. This room is messy, just find a place to sit."

Looking at the messy office, Wang Gensheng was slightly stunned, and then he thought of something.

"Congratulations, Brother Zhao. Do I have to call you Director Zhao from now on? Congratulations to you here."

Director Zhao waved his hand with a smile on his face: "Deputy Director, it's Deputy Director Zhao. Logically speaking, I got to this position because of your contribution. I heard that you were also present when Deputy Director Li got into trouble that day?"

"Brother, please don't accuse me. I didn't do anything wrong. It was just an accident."

"Yes, it was an accident. What was the result of the factory's investigation?"

"Hey, it was Deputy Director Li's section chief who embezzled the maintenance funds for the logistics vehicles and caused the accident."

"It's his own fault, Old Li! Just behave yourself, and I will definitely talk to you when you have enough experience. You are still young, there is no need to rush to climb up now."

"Brother, you really think highly of me. How long have I been here? My foundation is too shaky. I haven't even sorted out the mess in the purchasing department. How dare I ask for further improvement or promotion?"

Director Zhao laughed and stood up, walked up to Wang Gensheng, patted him on the shoulder and said:

"You do have the ability. Although many people are jealous of you sitting in this position, I know that you are too young and have little experience. Otherwise, with your ability, you would have caught fish if you climbed up two more steps."

"Please don't say that. It makes me almost cocky."

"Haha, I'll move to the factory director's office in the future, and you can come over often."

Wang Gensheng smiled and nodded: "Brother, please don't think I'm troublesome when the time comes. I will have to go to your office to drink tea."

"Okay, okay. As long as you come to my place, my office door will be open to you at any time. You just need to work hard and run the purchasing department well. If you can hold on for another two years, the position of deputy director of logistics will definitely be yours."

"Haha, thank you for the compliment, Brother Zhao."

"This is not a compliment, but a fact. This is the end of my career. I will try to stay in this position for two more years, waiting for you to take over."

Director Zhao's words made Wang Gensheng feel a little helpless. He smiled bitterly and said,

"Brother, you are flattering me too much. I can't even dream of being in your position."

"You don't need to be modest. You have the support of a senior leader above you, you have the ability to do the job, and you have a good relationship with other cadres in our factory. If you were in my position, you would definitely be more capable than me."

"Of course you are much younger than me, and you still have a chance to climb up. I'm not flattering you."

To be honest, if Director Zhao told others these things, they would definitely be very moved. But Wang Gensheng knew that when the great storm of the next decade came, it would be uncomfortable to sit in this position.

"Thank you, Brother Zhao, for your kindness. I think I'll do my job well and take care of the procurement department. I don't dare to think about anything else."

Director Zhao smiled, raised his hand, and gently pointed his finger at Wang Gensheng.

"Xiao Wang is really politically sensitive. No wonder the senior leaders all said that you understood the spirit of the meeting well. Even if someone wants to cause trouble for you, they can't find any fault with you."

Wang Gensheng knew Director Zhao, this was Deputy Director Li. His eyes were fixed on Wang Gensheng.

Over such a long time, Deputy Director Li not only failed to suppress Wang Gensheng, but instead allowed Wang Gensheng to climb to this position, becoming a thorn in Deputy Director Li's side.

This is what Director Zhao likes to see the most.

Now, although it seems that Director Zhao and Deputy Director Li have been evenly matched and both have become deputy directors of the steel rolling mill, Director Zhao is still a little behind in the ranking of responsibilities and powers.

"Don't ask about Xu Damao being the team leader. This is a move arranged by my men. I will use it to compete with Deputy Director Li later."

Having said that, what else can Wang Gensheng say?

I could only nod and say, "Okay, then, boss, you are busy, I won't bother you with the move."

After coming out of Director Zhao’s office, Wang Gensheng stretched lazily.

"Da Mao, it's not that I won't help you, it's just that your problem is beyond my ability."

Before Wang Gensheng could lower his head and take a few steps back, someone behind him had already shouted.

"Isn't this Section Chief Wang from our Purchasing Department? Why are you here again, Director Zhao, to report on your work?"

Wang Gensheng turned around. Who else could this person be but Xu Damao? Wang Gensheng frowned slightly. Could it be that Xu Damao was behind him, watching him closely?
