Chapter 44: The company commander cooperates with the platoon leader to deceive Shi Jin (seeking a month ago, follow-up reading)
"I once promised the old senior that I would bring up his son and make him a good son that he would be proud of, not a cowardly son. I must do it."
Although Shi Jin is not a stubborn person, he is a good squad leader who regards responsibility as his life.
Gao Cheng regretted the boast he had just made. He would have been less frank if he had known. Now that Shi Jin had him in his grasp, he had no reason to refuse.
at this point.
Gao Cheng exhaled a long puff of smoke. Even though he was extremely reluctant, he had to agree to the old squad leader and add Xu Sanduo's name.
But just when Gao Cheng was about to speak out, Chen Jun, who had remained silent, suddenly spoke.
"Company commander, can I say a few words?"
Chen Jun's words were very polite, without any emotion at all, which made Gao Cheng confused and he didn't know what Chen Jun meant.
Thinking about Xu Sanduo's achievement in achieving the standard, Chen Jun is definitely the first contributor.
Gao Cheng felt that Chen Jun was going to speak for Shi Jin. Since he had already made the decision, he didn't care. He nodded and said, "Pai Pai Chen, everyone has expressed their opinions. Xu Sanduo is from your second platoon. I really want to hear your opinion on how to deal with him."
"My opinion is very clear, that is, he cannot be brought here. Xu Sanduo is not qualified to come to the Seventh Company right now."
Chen Jun's words were simple, straightforward and clear, but the content was beyond everyone's expectations, leaving everyone, including Gao Cheng, a little unresponsive.
Shi Jin was dumbfounded.
Gao Cheng and Wu Liuyi were confused!
Chen Jun's help to Xu Sanduo in the recruit company completely exceeded the care and concern a platoon leader should have for the recruits, making everyone think that Chen Jun wanted Xu Sanduo.
But now there has been a 180-degree turn, and they are actually opposing Xu Sanduo going to the Seventh Company.
The contrast between the before and after is so great that it is really unbelievable.
"Why, platoon leader, why can't he do it?" Shi Jin asked anxiously.
Not only Shi Jin was confused, Gao Cheng, Wu Liuyi and Jin Dashan were also bewildered, not knowing what Chen Jun was up to.
"Let me tell you a story first."
Chen Jun was about to start fooling Shi Jin, and he said slowly and calmly: "I have a relative's child, his talent is very average, but he studies very hard.
Studying in a middle school in a small third-tier county, the child can rank among the top students in the class with hard work, so he has the confidence to be admitted to a good university.
But when he was in high school, his father tried his best to send him to the best private high school in the city in order to give him a better learning environment.
I thought that if I went to a better middle school, my grades would improve dramatically.
But what was the result? The opposite was true.
The city’s private middle school gathers the city’s top students, all of whom are child prodigies in the county, and each one has more outstanding talent for studying than the other.
My relative's child studied hard, and he studied even harder here.
Unfortunately, in the face of absolute talent and strength, hard work and diligence are only the most basic conditions. What's more, geniuses are also working hard, and he is not the only one who is working hard.
The only advantage that the children of relatives have gained was lost, and no matter how hard they study, they can never catch up with their classmates.
There was no way he could even get into the middle of the class. He was always at the bottom of every test, either first to last or second to last.
He suddenly fell from being a top student in the county junior high school to being a wild duck among a flock of swans.
After being ranked last for a long time, the child's mentality was completely broken. Not only did he lose the desire to study, let alone catch up with his grades. In the end, he failed to get into a junior college and had to go to a technical secondary school. "
The allusion to this story is already obvious, but Chen Jun still decided to point it out.
After a few seconds, he continued, "Steel Company 7 is like the best middle school in the city, and every soldier in it is the best.
Xu Sanduo is that hardworking child, and he has no other good qualities except being hardworking.
If Xu Sanduo were really allowed to join the Seventh Company now, his hard work would be in vain, because every soldier in the Seventh Steel Company is fighting desperately.
When Xu Sanduo no longer has the advantage of hard work, do you think it is possible for him to catch up with the top soldiers in the company?
Even if you forcibly drag Xu Sanduo away, how long can you, Shi Jin, delay it?
You are not young anymore, Shi Jin, you are almost thirty years old. If you forcibly drag Xu Sanduo away, the only outcome will be that you will be dragged to death first, and Xu Sanduo will not have a good result either. He might even completely collapse because of this.
We are all adults, we need to think clearly before doing anything, and not act on impulse, otherwise it will not only hurt ourselves, but also others.”
Chen Jun's last four words, "harming others and yourself", were like a heavy iron fist, hitting Shi Jin's mind and causing a violent shock.
Shi Jin wanted to bring Xu Sanduo out, and never thought about causing Xu Sanduo to collapse.
Thinking that Xu Sanduo would eventually collapse like his relatives' children in the 7th Steel Company full of top talents, he felt that his persistence would end up hurting Xu Sanduo.
The original firm idea of taking Xu Sanduo to the Seventh Company began to waver seriously.
Even self-doubt, is the decision really right?
Gao Cheng and Wu Liuyi had been talking for a long time but failed to make Shi Jin waver in the slightest. But when it came to Chen Jun, everything was completely different.
It seems that what Chen Jun said is effective.
The two of them tacitly kept silent, for fear of affecting Chen Jun's performance.
They both really don't want Shi Jin to have a burden!
Chen Jun saw the hesitation in Shi Jin's eyes, and then took advantage of the victory to pursue: "For Xu Sanduo now, I think the best way is to go through the water first.
Just like putting a goldfish into a fish tank, if you pour it directly into the tank, it will most likely die.
But if we make a transition first, transfer the goldfish to the water, and wait for them to adapt to the environment of the fish tank, there will be no problem putting them in.
Xu Sanduo is like a goldfish that was just bought. It is too intense to be thrown directly into the Seventh Company. He will definitely not be able to adapt.
If he were given a place to transition so that he could adapt to the army at a slow pace, and then be transferred back to the Seventh Company after he had integrated into the army, everything would be natural by then.
I think that by the time Xu Sanduo has adapted to the army, the company commander will definitely welcome Xu Sanduo to the Seventh Company.
Besides, conscripts have three years of service, so even if you made a promise to your seniors, you don’t have to rush to fulfill it in just one or two years, right?”
Chen Jun's analysis and arrangements were both reasonable and Shi Jin could not find any faults at all.
Gao Cheng never thought of really going to pick Xu Sanduo up. He thought that this was a delaying tactic specially arranged by Chen Jun to trick Shi Jin into giving up.
He followed closely and said, "Shi Jin, I think what Platoon Leader Chen said makes sense. It won't be too late to come to the Seventh Company then.
Moreover, there happened to be a place that was very suitable for Xu Sanduo. The pace of life there was very slow and very peaceful, which was the most suitable place for transition."
