Chapter 471: Learn a lot from every meal!
Chapter 471 Every experience brings you wisdom!
After watching Lin Jianjun leave on the truck, Jia Dongming handed a cloth bag to Lin Yuemei and said to her with a smile: "Director Lin! It's almost the New Year, and I don't know what you like to eat. There are two bottles of red wine and some fruits in this bag. They are my gifts for you for the Spring Festival. I hope you don't refuse."
When Lin Yuemei saw the cloth bag that Jia Dongming handed over, she instinctively wanted to refuse what Jia Dongming gave her. But when she heard what Jia Dongming said and saw his expression that would not tolerate rejection, she finally reached out to take the cloth bag that Jia Dongming handed over to her, and thanked him with a smile: "Director Jia! Since you have said so much, I will not be polite with you."
Lin Yuemei paused for a moment, then said to Jia Dongming, "Also, Director Jia! In the future, when no one else is around, you can just call me Sister Yuemei instead of my title. This will make me seem more intimate."
When Jia Dongming heard Lin Yuemei's request, he didn't think much about it and replied with a smile: "Okay! From now on, I will call you Sister Yuemei in private, and you don't have to call me by my title, just call me by my name."
When Lin Yuemei heard Jia Dongming's answer and thought about what Chen Weizhong did to Jia Dongming today, she smiled and said to him, "Dongming! Chen Weizhong's old leader is an old comrade-in-arms with my dad. I will call my dad and tell him about what he did to you today after I return to the office."
"Dingling! Dingling! Dingling!"
At around five in the evening, when Chen Weizhong was about to get off work and go home, the phone in the office suddenly rang. Chen Weizhong turned around and walked back to his office, picked up the phone, and greeted politely: "Hello! I'm Chen Weizhong, who is this?"
"Xiao Chen! It's me! What did I tell you before you took office at the steel mill? I told you not to rush to grab power after you arrived at the steel mill, but to proceed steadily and gain a firm foothold before considering the rest of the things. But you turned a deaf ear to my words." Chen Wei Zhong had just finished asking when an old man's dissatisfied voice of reprimand came over the phone.
When Chen Wei Zhong heard the familiar scolding voice coming from the phone, he immediately realized that what happened at the steel mill this morning might have reached the old man's ears.
Facing the old man's reprimand, thinking of his current situation in the steel mill, he replied helplessly: "Old leader! I also want to proceed step by step, and wait until the steel mill has completely established its foothold before making drastic efforts to carry out construction. However, the current steel mill is all independent, and I, as the top leader, am useless. That's why I asked you to help transfer Guo Hua from Anshan."
"I originally thought that after Guo Hua was transferred to the Security Department, with his work ability, he would definitely be able to quickly gain a foothold, so that I would have someone useful under my command. Who would have thought that the people in the Security Department only recognized the deputy director Jia Dongming and did not take Guo Hua seriously at all, so they resorted to this desperate measure. Who would have thought that our plan was leaked in advance, and ultimately failed."
The old man heard Chen Weizhong's complaints and thought about what Chen Weizhong had done to Jia Dongming. This gave him a headache and he scolded Chen Weizhong, "Xiao Chen! When you first proposed to transfer Guo Hua from Anshan, I reminded you that when Guo Hua arrived at the Security Department of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, he must have a good relationship with Jia Dongming."
"But you just ignored my warning and caused me such a big trouble. Do you know that if this wasn't the Steel Rolling Mill Security Department, it would be upgraded to the Security Department after the new year. Jia Dongming doesn't want any trouble at this time. I think you and Guo Hua would definitely be beaten to death by Jia Dongming."
When Chen Weizhong heard the old man's words and learned that the security department was going to be upgraded, he was shocked. When he heard what the old man said later, Chen Weizhong's shocked face showed a disdainful expression, and he replied nonchalantly: "Old leader! Although the security department is not under the jurisdiction of our steel mill, it is at least a department under our steel mill. Moreover, Guo Hua took the initiative to stand up and take responsibility for everything in the morning. Even if Jia Dongming wants to hold on to it, he can't be recognized as opposing our steel mill, right?" The old man on the other end of the phone heard Chen Weizhong's answer and found that Chen Weizhong didn't realize the seriousness of the matter at all. He scolded Chen Weizhong with a sense of regret: "Xiao Chen! When you worked in Anshan in the past, I felt that you were a practical cadre, so I transferred you from Anshan to Sijiucheng. When did you become so arrogant?"
"Do you really think that Jia Dongming is just a deputy director-level cadre with no background? Do you know that you are lucky that you didn't make a scene today? If you had, what would have been the outcome that awaited you?"
Chen Weizhong heard the old man's reprimand and felt his anger. He asked the old man with a curious look on his face, "Old leader! I checked Jia Dongming's resume. He is just a battalion commander who made a mistake and was forced to retire. Even if the matter got out of hand, it was caused by their security department's illegal distribution of New Year's goods. Could it have any impact on me?"
When the old man heard Chen Weizhong's answer, he was immediately furious and sternly reprimanded Chen Weizhong: "Chen Weizhong, Chen Weizhong! You are also a retired soldier. You should know how serious a crime it is to shoot prisoners on the battlefield. Jia Dongming killed more than a dozen prisoners in one breath, but he was able to be retired and returned to the local area without any trouble. Do you still think he is a deputy director without any background?"
When Chen Wei Zhong heard the old man mention the reason why Jia Dongming made mistakes in the army, an expression of astonishment appeared on his face. As a former soldier, Chen Wei Zhong knew clearly that killing prisoners on the battlefield was a serious crime. However, Jia Dongming was able to transfer to civilian work peacefully. This alone was enough to show how powerful the people behind Jia Dongming were.
At this moment, Chen Weizhong finally realized what a terrible opponent he had provoked. He immediately showed an expression of regret on his face and said to the old man, "Old leader! I thought Jia Dongming was expelled from the army and transferred to work in the local area because he made mistakes in the army. If I knew he made such a mistake, I would not have chosen the security department as a breakthrough point."
There was nothing wrong with Chen Wei Zhong's choice of the security department as a breakthrough point. After all, Jia Dongming had just been transferred to the steel rolling mill not long ago. Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for him to gain a foothold in the security department. It was just that Chen Wei Zhong underestimated Jia Dongming's background and ability, which led to Chen Wei Zhong's misjudgment and the current situation.
The old man heard Chen Weizhong's answer and felt the regret in his tone. He said to Chen Weizhong helplessly, "Xiao Chen! Since it has already happened, it is too late to say anything now. Guo Hua is no longer suitable to stay in the steel mill. After the New Year, I will find a way to transfer him to another factory. I hope you can be quiet during this period."
Chen Weizhong heard the old man's words. Although he still didn't know Jia Dongming's true background, the old man didn't want to tell him, so he didn't dare to ask. He could only follow the old man's instructions and answered respectfully: "Old leader! I will listen to you."
Although Chen Weizhong's current actions made the old man very dissatisfied, he was the one who transferred Chen Weizhong to Sijiu City after all, and he couldn't just ignore Chen Weizhong's actions. Facing Chen Weizhong's promise, the old man said seriously: "Xiao Chen! Sijiu City is the administrative center of our country. Any old man here may be an old hero who retired from the army. As the saying goes, every experience makes you wiser. I hope you can remember today's lesson."
