Siheyuan: Spring and Autumn

After Yang Xiangzheng looked around and saw that no one was talking, he looked at Yin Botao and said, "Botao, go and call Wen Liru over and ask her to attend the next meeting and introduce the three nominated comrades."

"Yes."

Soon, Wen Liru, the head of the Personnel Section, arrived at the office and read out the resumes of Xiong Yanfang, Wang Xuefei, and Liu Guxin according to procedure. Afterwards, Yang Xiangzheng proposed: "For the position of head of the Security Section, there are now three candidates, namely Xiong Yanfang, Wang Xuefei, and Liu Guxin. Now, please vote. Those who agree with Xiong Yanfang, please raise your hands."

As soon as he finished speaking, three people raised their hands, namely Zhang Xiaosong, Ye Limin, and Xi Siqi. Then, Yang Xiangzheng also raised his hand.

"Please put it down. 4 votes. Those who agree with Wang Xuefei, please raise your hands."

Two people raised their hands, they were Li Huaide and Nie Weimin.

Such a voting result did not surprise the participants. No, it should be said that it was within everyone's expectations.

"Please put it down, 2 votes. Please raise your hands if you agree with Liu Guxin."

Fu Ruopeng, Qin Zheng and Shen Quan raised their hands.

"Please put it down. Okay, Xiong Yanfang has 4 votes, Wang Xuefei has 2 votes, and Liu Guxin has 3 votes. Wang Xuefei, who got the least votes, will be eliminated first. Now, please vote again. Those who agree with Xiong Yanfang, please raise your hands."

After saying that, he raised his hand. Whether it was Li Huaide or Nie Weimin, as long as he could get one vote from them, his nomination would be passed. He felt that this result was not difficult to achieve.

Unfortunately, the ending was already determined from the beginning. He did not expect that Li Huaide and Nie Weimin were already prepared to compete with him.

Yang Xiangzheng's idea failed, and there were still only 4 votes in favor of Xiong Yanfang taking over. Seeing this result, Yang Xiangzheng's heart skipped a beat and he felt something was wrong.

"Please raise your hands if you agree with Liu Guxin."

There is no choice but to continue the voting.

"Shh."

Five people raised their hands at the same time. In addition to Fu Ruopeng and the other two who had originally voted in favor, Li Huaide and Nie Weimin also raised their hands. No one abstained.

4:5, the result is obvious, Liu Guxin wins.

"Xiong Yanfang has 4 votes and Liu Guxin has 5 votes. Based on the principle of the minority obeying the majority, we agree to recommend Liu Guxin to take over the position of Chief of the Security Section of the Steel Rolling Mill. The factory office should write to the district public security bureau as soon as possible."

"Yes."

Xi Siqi responded immediately.

Qin Zheng closed his notebook silently, with no expression on his face, as if he didn't care about the result.

But in fact, he felt very happy. While the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits, and he is the fisherman.

The Security Department is a powerful department in the factory, and its importance is self-evident. He believes that with Liu Guxin's ability, if he is given a month, he will definitely be able to control half of the power of the Security Department, which is equivalent to holding a gun in his hand. In the subsequent struggle, he will have the guarantee of force.

"Hehe, this is going to give Old Yang a headache."

Back in the office, Li Huaide threw his notebook on the table and talked to Nie Weimin happily.

"Haha, this Old Yang was really careless. Such a big thing happened in the factory, but he was actually indifferent. We caught him off guard this time, otherwise, this would not be the result."

Things like promoting people must be communicated before the meeting. Yang Xiangzheng was too confident and did not interrupt the meeting, so it is not surprising that such a result occurred.

Li Huaide agreed with Nie Weimin's words. He also thought that Yang Xiangzheng was not very sensitive to policies, so he continued, "He has been too comfortable in recent years and feels that the steel mill is in his hands. He has lost his vigilance. This is a good thing."

"That's right. Although we didn't take down the Security Department this time, we did make Old Yang lose control. In the long run, this is indeed a good thing."

"It's just a bargain for Qin Zheng."

Li Huaide smacked his teeth and began to feel unhappy again.

All we can say is that human desires are endless and once you get something, you will always want more.

Nie Weimin was open-minded and consoled him, "We should eat one bite at a time and walk one step at a time. We don't need to rush. Qin Zheng gives me the impression that he is a science man who only cares about researching technology. He is not interested in fighting for power and profit, so he is not to be feared. Besides, our original purpose was to undermine Yang Xiangzheng's prestige. Now we have achieved our goal, haven't we?"

"Yes, it has indeed been achieved. Fu Ruopeng nominated Liu Guxin, probably from a work perspective, and Qin Zheng raised his hand to agree, it must be because they are comrades-in-arms, so he went with the flow and was reluctant to agree with the candidate nominated by Lao Yang. They probably did not unite."

"That makes sense. However, we can't let our guard down, or else we'll end up like Lao Yang."

"Yes."

At this time, Yang Xiang was sitting in his office sulking. The result of today's meeting made him very disappointed, but he was helpless. In the end, he could only comfort himself: "Forget it, this time it only involves Qin Zheng's comrades, otherwise, Li Huaide's plan will fail."

After being angry for a while, Yang Xiangzheng let go of his unhappiness. He did not take the matter too seriously. The steel mill has always been under his absolute control. Moreover, since Qin Zheng started working in the factory, he has always been very supportive of him.

"Gu Xin, the situation is going to be complicated. Now that you are the section chief, you have to take charge of the security department. You have to do a good job in daily security and make up for the omissions in the work. You also have to do a good job in the training of security personnel, improve their skills, and ensure that orders are carried out."

"Yes. Please rest assured, squad leader."

Liu Guxin immediately assured that he had outstanding abilities, especially in recent years, he had been doing very well as the company commander.

On May 5, Qin Zheng looked at the May 18 Notice on the table, feeling helpless and heavy in his heart. But the person who made Qin Zheng most helpless and disappointed was Yang Xiangzheng.

Qin Zheng didn't expect that he had reminded him twice during the chats, and even when he was at Minister Xiang's house, Minister Xiang had also told him that the situation was not optimistic, but this person was indifferent. Until now, he has not taken any action. He sits in the office every day, focusing only on production.

Under normal circumstances, we cannot say that Yang Xiangzheng is doing a bad job. Instead, we should admire his professionalism.

However, this person seriously lacks political acumen and does not even realize that we are now in an extraordinary period. It is truly sad and lamentable.

On the other hand, Li Huaide is the opposite. Even though he has Lin Guangling as his backer, he rarely appears in the factory and is always active outside.

It should be noted that if he wants to advance, his father-in-law Lin Guangling can only play a small role. He can only ensure that no one moves his position. Therefore, in order to continue to move up, Li Huaide has been expanding his support group.

Seeing their performance, Qin Zheng could only sigh helplessly: "Yang Xiangzheng, I don't care. When you suffer, you will know what you have missed."
