Chapter 23: The Lament of Chu Rises

  The leader of the Construction Bureau's face was like the sky in March or April.

  This tongue twister describes the first five leaders of the Construction Bureau. The old director is a poker face, nothing to say, Gao Xingfu director is a smiling face, rarely seen him angry, Chen Fu director is a bitter face, no one knows when he is happy or unhappy, Yu Feilong director is a changing face, emotions are unpredictable, Sun Fu director is a sly face, completely because of Sun Fu's appearance, very similar to the modern Peking Opera "Sha Jia Bang" Shide Yi.

  Director Chen Fubureau is called Chen Wen Yun, 48 years old this year. Among the many leaders, he is the only outsider, and like Yu Feilong, belongs to the political work class cadre. In the bureau, he concurrently serves as the deputy secretary of the party group, in charge of personnel, discipline inspection, administration and other industries, rarely asking about business matters.

  When Chen Wenyun graduated from university, he was assigned to the Planning Committee of Qinghe City. As an outsider, it was difficult for him to stand out without external help. After struggling for several years, Chen Wenyun married the daughter of a deputy director of the Planning Committee and became the son-in-law of Qinghe City, gradually rising to prominence and quickly becoming a deputy department-level cadre.

  However, with the death of his father-in-law due to illness, the existing connections were suddenly lost, and Chen Wen-yun fell into confusion in his official career. Later, when the organization was streamlined, Chen Wen-yun was transferred to the Municipal Surveying and Mapping Bureau as a deputy director, which is a department-level bureau, so Chen Wen-yun took a step back and became a deputy department-level cadre.

  Soon, the Bureau of Surveying and Mapping was upgraded to a deputy department level, and Chen Wen-yun also came and went, barely managing to hold on to the position of Director of the Bureau of Surveying and Mapping, becoming a deputy department-level cadre.

  Soon, a document came down from above, and the Municipal Surveying and Mapping Bureau was merged into the Construction Bureau, becoming the Urban and Rural Planning Management Office of the Municipal Construction Bureau. Another sign was hung with the name "Surveying and Mapping Geographic Information Office", which is actually a section, Chen Wenyun took another step back and became a deputy director.

  Changes came one after another, Chen Wenyun had arrived at his middle age, the good times of youth were gone, what followed was endurance. After enough years of service, he endured to become Deputy Director, then step by step, he endured to the second-in-command position last year.

  In the Construction Bureau, there are two major factions. One is the Business faction, led by Old Director Liu and with Director Gao as its backbone, plus Director Sun. The other is the Political Work faction, mainly consisting of Chen Wenyun and Yu Feilong. The two factions have been at odds for two or three years now.

  Chen Wenyun and Yu Feilong were originally quite united, but at the beginning of the year, news spread that the old director was going to retire to the second line, both people had ideas for advancement, and the relationship between them became subtle.

  Even Xiang Tianliang, who had just joined the Construction Bureau, could see that Chen Wenyun and Yu Feilong, a pair of partners, were now fighting separately.

  "Director Chen, I heard from Li Xiaogang that you were looking for me?"

  He was very respectful towards Tian Liang because he had heard that the administrative staff in the unit were easy to talk to, but the political commissar was cunning and needed to be handled with care.

  "Xiao Xiang, sit down and talk." Chen Wenyun smiled briefly before quickly reverting to his gloomy expression.

  Chen Wen-yun has a completely standard literary figure, unfortunately his face is too cold and lacks the elegant temperament.

  Said "thank you Director Chen", Tian Liang put half of his buttocks on the sofa.

  "Xiao Xiang, you've been coming to work for almost half a year now?" Chen Wenyun asked.

  "Yes, it's been almost half a year."

  Chen Wen-yun looked as if he was smiling but not quite, "The probation period is almost over."

  Xiang Tianliang was stunned, probationary period? In accordance with the current national policy, full-time university undergraduate graduates, as long as they are assigned by the organizational department, belong to the formal staff quota, and there is no mention of a probationary period. What does Director Chen mean by this?

  "Director Chen, I...I was assigned by the organizational department..."

  Chen Wenyun nodded and said slowly, "It's a different time now, Xiao Xiang. You managed to catch the last train of national unified allocation, but the provincial party committee's organization department issued a document last year requiring a six-month probationary period for university graduates assigned to government agencies, so you can't be an exception either."

  "Director Chen, what should I do then?"

  Chen Wen-yun was in charge of organizational and personnel matters at the Construction Bureau.

  "Well, it's strictly stipulated in the documents. For example, first you need to come up with a self-summary, then your bureau office will review and comment on it, after that the personnel department of the bureau will give an initial opinion, and finally it will be submitted to the party group of the bureau for discussion and approval."

  "Director Chen, you're in charge of personnel in our department. You have to help me."

  Chen Wenyun smiled slightly and said indifferently, "Little Xiang, actually you're not bad, but recently there have been so many things happening in the bureau, and the director is not around, your matter will probably be put on hold for now."

  Toward Tian Liang felt a bit dizzy and didn't know what to say, so he simply didn't open his mouth, just staring foolishly at Chen Wenyun.

  "Xiao Xiang, don't have too much mental burden. Actually, having something printed on paper is just a formality. First, do your main job well, and after the director comes to work, we'll study your situation."

  "Thank you, Director Chen." Xiang Tianliang could only say this much.

  Suddenly, Chen Wenyun said: "Xiao Xiang, there have been some rumors lately that are very unfavorable to you?"

  "Ah, I see, you've finally arrived! So it was for this reason all along."

  "Director Chen, I was in Dayang Village for poverty alleviation when the theft occurred at the bureau. At that time, I was attending a village party branch meeting in Dayang Village."

  "So why did you suddenly come back?" Chen Wen-yun stared at Xiang Tian-liang and asked coldly.

  "Chief Yu called me and told me to come back," Tian Liang said, standing up straight.

  "Really?"

  "Really, when I answered the phone, the old branch secretary of Dayang Village was right next to me."

  Chen Wenyun nodded expressionlessly, "What did Director Yu Fu want you to come back for?"

  "Hmm... Director Yu asked about the poverty alleviation situation in Dayang Village, so he wants me to come back and report to him in person."

  Xiang Tianliang couldn't speak out loud, he had already understood Chen Wenyun's true intention, this was to insert a "knife".

  "It's like this for now, you go back first." Chen Wenyun waved his hand.

  Returned to the office building like a grand amnesty towards the bright sky.

  Li Xiaogang hadn't left yet, and seeing Xiang Tianliang return, he came over again, "What's going on?"

  "You're asking despite knowing? Don't you know?" Tian Liang said with a vicious tone.

  "Hey, what's wrong with you, did you eat gunpowder?" Li Xiaogang said with an innocent face.

  Xiang Tianliang let out a sigh and turned around, too lazy to bother with Li Xiaogang anymore.

  Damn it, even Director Chen has jumped out, and the situation is pressing.

  At this time, Ye Fan came in, twisting her slender waist and walking to Xiang Tianliang's side. "Xiao Xiang, my car had a flat tire on the People's Road over there. Can you help me change the tire?"

  While speaking, Ye Nian rushed towards the bright sky with a determined look in her eyes.

  Toward the bright sky, she led the way and followed Ye Nan out of the office.
