Chapter 274 The opportunity to get the "First Class Merit" is here!
Chen Jun used his vast knowledge reserves and excellent eloquence to explain his understanding of the combined forces and his insights into the modernization and informationization reform in the form of a family chat.
He easily conquered Chief Gao, gained his initial recognition, and made a good impression.
Don't underestimate this initial impression.
As long as Chen Jun makes good use of it in the future, it will definitely play a decisive role at some critical moment in the future.
It can even be said that this simple chat is enough to become one of the milestones in Chen Jun's life.
After this brief chat, Chief Gao felt that Chen Jun was more to his liking, and he took out a bottle of Maotai and asked Chen Jun and Gao Cheng to have a couple of drinks with him.
Gao's mother could see that her husband was in a good mood, so she cooperated and cooked some side dishes.
After two cups of Maozi tea, the atmosphere at the dinner table became more harmonious.
It’s not convenient to talk about work at the dinner table, so just naturally turn to talking about life.
During the conversation, Gao's mother felt that Chen Jun was a very outstanding young man, and now he is single, and a certain talent was immediately awakened.
He immediately expressed his desire to find a partner for Chen Jun and also asked about Chen Jun's age and hobbies.
Take Gao Cheng along as well, and the two of them go on a blind date together.
This made Chen Jun very embarrassed!
Chen Jun thought that Chief Gao would definitely not have any interest in such things, and he tried to change the subject and talk about other things to divert his attention.
Gao Cheng was also not interested in this topic and tried to interrupt his mother's enthusiasm.
But what no one expected was that Chief Gao actually expressed his opinion at the first opportunity, stood on the side of Gao's mother, and strongly supported his idea.
And he hinted at something in his words to tell Chen Jun and Gao Cheng that starting a family is a very necessary thing.
The impact on grassroots cadres is still small, but once they are appointed to personnel positions above the rank of deputy regiment commander, family factors will account for an increasingly larger proportion.
The higher you move up the ladder, the more you need to have a family, which gives you an advantage when competing for jobs.
The reason why there is an advantage.
It is both a tradition and a rule.
Whether in the military or officialdom in China, the mainstream has always been to seek stability first and then development. The higher the position, the more mature people are needed to hold the position.
Mature people have a more stable mentality and can handle big things better.
Starting a family means moving towards maturity.
Only by shouldering the responsibility of being the head of a family can one understand the heavy responsibility of being the leader of an army.
Therefore, when selecting people, we tend to prefer those who have started a family.
Chen Jun and Gao Cheng are both outstanding young cadres with unlimited prospects for future development. Solving family issues will give them even greater strength.
As people who have experienced this, Gao Cheng's parents are fully aware of the interests involved, so they specifically bring it up.
Gao Cheng is now 26 years old and has been promoted to acting battalion commander at the deputy regimental level. As long as he maintains his position and is promoted to a regular position, he will be a standard deputy regimental-level cadre.
The next promotion will be to a regimental-level position, and whether or not to have a family will inevitably become a consideration.
Chen Jun is about to turn 25 years old, and his position has reached the rank of battalion commander. Even if he is only an acting commander, his situation is actually the same as Gao Cheng's.
As long as they don't make big mistakes in principle, no one can take their jobs away.
The role of family factors has also begun to manifest itself.
If you don't start preparing for starting a family now, it will not be easy to make efforts when the need arises.
After all, finding a wife is not like buying vegetables in the market, and it is not something that can be solved in three or five days.
As a veteran, Chen Jun knew very well that starting a family had a great added value in the military, and he was very grateful for Gao's mother's kindness.
But he didn't want to be a high-ranking official, he just wanted to promote the rise of the 7th Steel Company.
As long as he is ensured to be indispensable to the combined battalion, Chen Jun's position in the combined force will not be bad, and at least his superiors will arrange a deputy position for him.
Otherwise, Chen Jun's position would not match his ability, and it would also limit the development of the combined forces.
Therefore, for the sake of face, Chen Jun did not give a direct response to Gao's mother's enthusiastic kindness, but he kept trying to shirk responsibility indirectly.
For example, I just want to develop my career with peace of mind now, and I will consider getting married after I turn 30, etc.
Gao's mother's answer was also very emotionally intelligent.
He smiled and said that they could introduce each other first and get to know each other, and it would be better if they dated for a few years. If they were suitable for each other after dating for a few years, it would be perfect to get married at the age of 30.
If you find the right one, don't reject it. If you don't find it, don't blame her. It all depends on whether it's fate.
Gao's mother had said so much, Chen Jun could no longer refuse, and could only follow the topic and say: "Thank you for your concern for me, Auntie. This kind of thing cannot be forced, it depends on whether I have this fate."
Relatively speaking.
Gao Cheng is much more anxious. His next step is to become a full regiment commander. If he becomes the regiment commander and is still single, it will definitely be a big minus point.
Therefore, Gao's mother and father took a tougher attitude and did not give Gao Cheng any chance to refuse.
Father Gao gave the order on the spot: "Your mother and Aunt Liang have already made an appointment. It just so happens that you are back now, so let's go visit together tomorrow.
Your aunt Liang's daughter works in the military district office. She is a very capable girl and is more than qualified for you."
"No, I won't go. Our camp is at a critical stage of development right now. I don't have the time to take care of such things. Let's talk about it later when we have time." Gao Cheng refused.
Gao Cheng has a very strong character, which leads him to put his career first.
He really didn't care about finding a wife.
Gao Cheng's answer was so firm that Gao's father frowned. A powerful aura that made him intimidate without even getting angry made the atmosphere at the table suddenly become very depressing.
"I'm not negotiating with you. This is an order. If you're busy with work and don't even have this little time, then I don't mind changing your position."
Chief Gao's words were clearly threatening, making Gao Cheng's face turn ugly.
With Gao Cheng's proud and competitive personality, the thing he hates most is being forced by others, but when facing J's father, he was suppressed.
No matter how angry I was, I didn't dare to refute.
"Xiao Cheng, we're just going to have a meal and meet. Don't talk about anything else for now. Don't feel too stressed. We can talk about it later, okay?"
Gao's mother played the role of the bad guy perfectly and played a very good buffering role.
Chen Jun also thought that given Gao Cheng’s current situation, he really needed to find a wife and start a family as soon as possible, otherwise it would be very detrimental to his future development.
After all, when it reaches the level of a synthetic regiment, its influence is already very great, and even the war zone will get involved.
The army’s voice will be greatly reduced.
So I decided to lend a hand and said in a more relaxed and joking tone: "Captain, you have to set a good example. When you succeed and find a virtuous and beautiful wife, then it will be my turn, haha."
"Bullshit, if you want to find a wife so much, then go with my mom this time." Gao Cheng said unhappily.
"No, that won't do. You are my leader, so you must set an example for everyone. There are only bachelors in our camp. Can you bear to see your brothers all single?" Chen Jun skillfully used moral kidnapping.
Gao Cheng was really speechless, staring at Chen Jun with his big round eyes.
It was as if he was saying, "We are brothers, family members. Why are you betraying yourself like this?"
"Okay, that's settled then."
Father Gao saw that Chen Jun had eased the atmosphere, so he changed the subject and said, "This lecture is very important, Chen Jun, you have to pay attention..."
Chief Gao changed the subject, and Gao Cheng did not continue to refuse. This was equivalent to his acquiescence!
Seeing that she had finally convinced her son, Gao's mother became extremely happy, with a smile on her face, and immediately ran to make a phone call.
Strike while the iron is hot and get things done to avoid further delays.
Chen Jun finished his dinner at Gao Cheng's house. Because he had to leave for a lecture the next morning, he did have to do some preparation work in the evening.
So after dinner, I just drank a cup of tea, said goodbye and returned to the military guesthouse.
the next day.
After Chen Jun reunited with the working group, he started his lecture tour.
At about the same time, Gao Cheng was taken to the street by his mother to buy a suit and get a haircut.
After putting all his clothes in place, Gao Cheng looks really manly.
Gao Cheng was reluctant all the way, from buying clothes to getting his hair cut, and was very averse to this blind date, so he had no choice.
However, when I arrived at Aunt Liang's house, I saw the girl who opened the door.
She has an oval face, curved eyebrows, big double-lidded eyes, clear and bright gaze, and short hair that looks particularly neat, highlighting her clean and neat temperament.
Especially the smile at the corner of her mouth, which is sweet with a hint of playfulness and refreshing.
Being able to go on a blind date with Captain J's son and myself being a career in the military, anyone would definitely be very happy.
It’s hard not to be sweet when the smile comes from the heart.
Gao Cheng has always been in an army surrounded by men. He doesn't see anything and doesn't think about it. He has no idea about women and naturally refuses blind dates in a tough manner.
Now, even though we are less than one meter apart, we can still smell the faint fragrance on each other.
The feeling was so strong that I was directly triggered.
I was stunned for several seconds.
Even my heartbeat suddenly accelerated!
The idea that I had originally come here just to get the job done, have a quick chat and a meal, and then find an excuse to leave was completely shattered.
I actually felt a little curious in my mind and instinctively wanted to know more about the girl.
The changes before and after...
The law of true fragrance!
When Gao's mother saw the change in her son's demeanor, the smile on her face became even more intense, and a thought jumped into her mind -
There will definitely be drama this time!!
……
Gao Cheng met the girl of his dreams, the land that had been dry for more than 20 years began to seep with water, and the breath of spring breeze began to emerge.
On the other hand, Chen Jun’s lecture tour also went very smoothly.
Having participated in the work of synthetic forces in two lifetimes, and having participated in the entire process of building a digital synthetic division in his previous life, synthetic forces have become Chen Jun's field.
For Chen Jun, working in the field he is best at is easier than drinking water.
Whenever Chen Jun gave a lecture in a regiment, he would be warmly welcomed by the officers and soldiers of the regiment, and no matter how big the venue was, it would be packed.
The response after the lecture was also very enthusiastic, and everyone felt that they benefited a lot from listening to Chen Jun’s lectures.
Originally, everyone was in a state of not knowing much about combined forces and joint tactics. They only knew the basics but were completely confused about the inside.
After listening to Chen Jun’s lecture from the simplest to the most complex, many things I didn’t understand were enlightened.
Mouth open!
With a better understanding of combined forces, they will naturally realize that the impact of combined forces on the future has exceeded their imagination.
Everyone will instinctively move closer to this absolute mainstream trend of the future.
Learn more about combined forces in life and try to understand contract tactics in training, and the traditional way of fighting will change imperceptibly.
With this seed sprouting in our hearts, the full promotion of combined forces will become smooth sailing in the future.
This kind of simple and subtle influence is exactly the effect that the superiors wanted Chen Jun to have on the entire army group by launching this lecture tour.
Chen Jun's lectures benefited many people, which proves that his lectures are valuable.
It further proves that the military district’s decision was a huge success.
As the main speaker, Chen Jun, although he was physically and mentally tired from running around all day long, he would become particularly happy when he saw everyone's happy faces after each lecture.
The most joyful thing is to be rewarded for your hard work.
Thanks to Chen Jun's diligent work, the information reform ideas of the entire 84th Group Army have been comprehensively sublimated.
It was twenty-six days later when Chen Jun had gathered all the regiments of the army group.
A few days earlier than expected.
Chen Jun's lecture was a huge success. In order to commend Chen Jun's hard work, the military district specially organized a commendation meeting in the military district.
This gave Chen Jun another medal and a military-level commendation.
Chen Jun, who has achieved both second-class and third-class merit, is still in a two-year cooldown period.
First class merit, second class merit and third class merit.
It can only be obtained once every two years.
Now Chen Jun still has the honor of cooling CD. The only one that is still vacant is the first-class merit, and there are honorary titles above the first-class merit.
It is said that the third-class merit is awarded by standing, the second-class merit is awarded by lying down, and the first-class merit is awarded by family members.
To get a first-class merit is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
Not to mention the honorary title!
However, Chen Jun has walked out his own path in this difficult situation that is comparable to climbing to the sky. He does not need to lie down, he has the opportunity to get first-class merit even if he stands.
Because at the celebration banquet after the commendation meeting, Chief Gao said something meaningful.
"Chen Jun, everything is proving that combined arms will be the mainstream in the future. I hope you can work hard and give full play to your abilities and expertise.
I believe that if your concept of combined forces can be extended to the entire group, it can be extended to the entire army."
At this point, Commander Gao patted Chen Jun on the shoulder and pointed to the blank spot at the top of the right side that was full of medals, which was also the spot above the second-class merit award.
“By then, this empty space of yours will no longer be empty.”
Although Chief Gao did not say this explicitly, anyone with a normal IQ could hear the hidden meaning in his words.
That is the "First Class Merit"!!
In fact, there is indeed such a probability, and the probability of successfully obtaining it is very high.
Because the first-class merit is for great contribution to the entire army, the second-class merit is for the army level, and the third-class merit is for the regiment level, there are clear boundary standards.
If Chen Jun's concept of integration is extended to the entire army, he will make a huge contribution to the entire army.
It is definitely worthy of first-class merit!
Even the experienced and calm Chen Jun couldn't help but feel his heart beating faster when he thought about the chance to win first-class merit, that sacred and unattainable honor.
As I look forward to that day, my enthusiasm for work becomes more and more intense.
I couldn't help but shout in my heart.
"I, Chen Jun, will definitely get first-class merit in this lifetime!!"
