Chapter 9 chapter eight

Forty-two When Huang Jiangbei and his team arrived in Wanfang, the sky turned gloomy; after listening to the report and studying how to deal with the test bench accident, it was almost lunch time.Tian Manfang greeted the company's catering department in advance as usual, and reserved a table for Huang Jiangbei and his party in the VIP restaurant.When walking out of the gate of the final assembly branch, Huang Jiangbei suddenly turned around and told Tian Manfang: "We are not here for lunch, don't prepare." Tian Manfang hurriedly said: "We have already prepared." Huang Jiangbei said: "We have something else to do. I won’t eat in the factory.” Tian Manfang said: “No matter what happens, you have to eat! Is there poison in Wanfang’s food?” Huang Jiangbei laughed and said, “We have an appointment with someone. I really won’t eat in the factory today. With that said, he left Tian Manfang behind, turned around and walked away, which made Tian Manfang feel very uncomfortable.

Tian Manfang only learned that the new mayor was coming this morning.After answering the phone, she was inexplicably excited for a long time, and hurriedly ran out of the office door, but she couldn't remember why she ran out.The moment Huang Jiangbei's car drove into the compound of the company's headquarters in the morning, she trembled again for no reason.She herself was embarrassed by herself.In the past, no matter which official in charge or department came from above, she was always at the forefront, and her every move was always chicer, more enthusiastic, and more appropriate than anyone else in the company.She is a born person who doesn't know what restraint is, and a born person who can melt the most restrained person.But what happened today.It took a long time before she regained her composure and showed her usual cheerful demeanor again.During the discussion, she tried her best to ask herself not to keep staring at the direction where Huang Jiangbei was sitting.But her strong curiosity prevented her from overcoming her desire to take a serious look at the new young mayor.For some reason, he was much younger, more confident, more composed, and more magnanimous than expected.Her intuition told her that she really met a different person this time.She had had an "uneasy" premonition of this, and now she felt it intuitively. Does she still need to verify and test it in in-depth contact?She had no time to think about it.She went up to refill the teacup in front of him three times, and he tapped the table twice lightly each time to show his thanks.This is really a young leader who refuses to let go of even a little detail.Her heart suddenly became heavy again.He refuses to let go of any details, can he live an easy life?She couldn't help but look at him again... But now, on the issue of a very inconspicuous lunch, why does he seem so cold and distant to herself?In the past, no one who came to Wanfang to inspect work, conduct investigations and research, and do interviews and videotapes was deeply impressed by this "Deputy General Manager of Manfang", who was just in his early thirties.The first question that comes to their minds is often: How could there be such a capable and beautiful female deputy general manager as Tian Manfang in such a "difficult" unit like Wanfang?Since there is such a deputy general manager, how can this unit be so bad?After a sigh, it was hard to tell whether it was for this company or for this woman.But no matter how hard it is to say, those who still care about Wanfang will continue to think of the deputy general manager named "Tian Manfang", and there are even such people who have left Wanfang for a long time. She will also ask someone to bring a letter to say hello to her.Huang Jiangbei deliberately ignored her.

Why? Back in the office, she quickly called the catering department to cancel the two tables of banquets at noon; after putting down the phone, she, who never let herself feel lonely, felt lonely today and felt at a loss. Time doesn't know what to do. forty three But she was wrong.Huang Jiangbei didn't deliberately snub her, let alone put some mayor's "spectacle" in front of her.What Huang Jiangbei looks down on the most is the kind of guy who has no idea in his heart but wants to show off.The more outrageous people are, the more they want to show off.Does a person who is exuding the demeanor of a general from the inside out and holds real power still need to have so many dubious and modest official titles printed on his business card?Are you always afraid that others will not treat him as a plaything, and worry about this attitude and that position with others all day long?A person who really masters the time control of himself and others does not even need to wear a watch.Do you believe it?Do you see God he needs a watch?no need!

I'm going to tell the truth about Huang Jiangbei's "dark psychology", and you may not believe it.Huang Jiangbei's "coldness" towards Tian Manfang today is actually a manifestation of his hidden mentality, showing his subconscious "yearning" and "fear" for this kind of beautiful and capable women.By accident, in the past forty years, the God of Good Fortune has never allowed Huang Jiangbei to work and live with such a hot and beautiful woman (please note that he is always on various construction sites, Among the old men).He has always been imagining such a woman based on other people's various "legends" about this type of woman.He always felt that such a woman would not be willing to approach a "workaholic" like him.This insurmountable "inferiority" is often subconsciously transformed into "coldness" and avoidance of them.How did Tian Manfang know that after Huang Jiangbei "coldly" broke up with her, he actually spent a long time reminiscing about the impressions he had left on him just now, thinking about such a question: this person who was born in a remote area in Linzhong County The little girl in the mountain village has neither attended a formal university nor received professional training. When talking to those American personnel today, she can speak such authentic American English. Where did this ability come from?

A good woman is not a mystery, some say. A good woman must be a mystery, and someone said so. Who is right? have no idea.Huang Jiangbei can only tell you that Shang Bing is a rare and good woman.This point is absolute.Shang Bing's heart is clear to the bottom, this is also absolute. Forty-four Since Ge Ping left, Ge Huiyuan's family returned to their former anger for the first time today.Knowing that Huang Jiangbei and Xia Zhiyuan were going to visit Lao Ge at home, Lu Hua specially took time off to serve Lao Ge's two "students".So the sound of chopping stuffing, which had not been heard for many days, came from the kitchen, as well as Xia Zhiyuan's heavy voice: "Hey, both of you, should you drink Luzhou Laojiao, or Hengshui Laobaigan?".

Huang Jiangbei was chatting with Ge Huiyuan in the living room, and he responded casually: "No drink, no drink. No alcohol. I have to find someone to discuss in the afternoon. Teacher Ge is not in good health..." Lu Hua poked his head out from the kitchen and persuaded, "Take a couple of sips of Chinese red." Ge Huiyuan excitedly said: "Drink Laojiao. Today, I have to drink some Laojiao anyway. Jiangbei and Zhiyuan are here, which is rare." Lu Hua spat: "Just save me some time. I don't have the capacity to drink, so I'm still old! You two get up and let me clean up..."

Huang Jiangbei hurriedly helped to stretch the sofa cover flat: "Master, don't be so busy, Zhiyuan and I are not outsiders." Lu Hua smiled and said: "It's for you two, there will be another great aunt coming soon." Xia Zhiyuan was filling dumplings and asked, "Which aunt?" The younger sister (Ge Huiyuan's youngest daughter) said: "Who else is the aunt of Wanfang Company?" "She won't come. I didn't invite her to our teacher-student gathering today." Ge Huiyuan said. "Come uninvited, that's her! Just wait and see, she will definitely come in a while. The mayor is here, can she not come? If she doesn't come, she won't be." Lu Hua always speaks so quickly.I'm in my early fifties, and it's still the same.

Huang Jiangbei stopped what he was doing and asked, "How powerful is this Ms. Tian?" Lu Hua responded anxiously: "Let me tell you this. If ten people like you, Mr. Ge, are tied together, you can't beat her alone... Don't look at her who just worked as a nanny in the leader's house for two years. ..." "You are here again." Ge Huiyuan said, "Vice Governor Tian's wife is a distant aunt of hers. She is sick and she goes to help take care of her. She can't just say that she is a nanny. Even if it is I have been a nanny, but it shouldn’t be said for a lifetime. When I was twelve or thirteen years old, I also worked as an apprentice in a pickle workshop for a few days. Later, when I went to study in the United States, didn’t I clean cars and wash dishes for others? Isn’t it also the work of servants?”

"Wanfang Company was dragged down by their surname Tian. You still want to speak for her?" Lu Hua said coldly. Ge Huiyuan's face suddenly turned pale: "The company is in a downturn, and I am responsible. I am the general manager, and I am incompetent! How can you blame a lesbian?" The little girl rushed over, pulled her father away, and turned around to persuade Lu Hua: "Mom, what are you doing! I am happy today!" Lu Hua fell silent. At this time, there was a knock on the door outside. Lu Hua smiled wryly: "Look, my aunt is here." Then he turned around to open the door.Huang Jiangbei quickly winked at Xia Zhiyuan.Xia Zhiyuan stopped Lu Hua with a smile, and said softly: "I'll come, I'll come."

The door opened. Standing outside was indeed the plump and graceful Tian Manfang.She carried a set of printed enamel lunch boxes openly and generously, and joked with a smile: "Okay, Mr. Ge, it's boring to close the door. There are delicious food. I only invite the mayor and the mayor's assistant. There are no such things as us." For the sake of the soldiers. You are too bad a buddy!" Ge Huiyuan cheered up: "Fast forward, fast forward..." Tian Manfang first put the set of printed lunch boxes on the small round table in the middle cabin, and said, "Mayor Huang, when you came back to inspect the company for the first time, you only ate private ones and not public ones, but you have set a shining example for the people of the city..."

Xia Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Don't be brilliant, next time, I'll come to your house to eat the rich." Tian Manfang smiled and said, "I'm sorry, the Sa family doesn't have a place for your Assistant Xia to eat." Huang Jiangbei smiled and said, "How come you have no home? Are you living in two places?" The other people present seemed a little embarrassed to answer this question directly. Tian Manfang mocked herself nonchalantly: "I used to have a family, but then...it disappeared. Now, one is single, three meals are full, and one is full. One person serves the rice bowl, and the whole family will not be hungry." Huang Jiangbei hurriedly responded: "That's good..." Tian Manfang laughed loudly: "Is it alright? I'm suffering to death. Mayor Huang, when will you spare some time to visit us single women's dormitory, and experience the sufferings of us single women..." Xia Zhiyuan hurriedly said: "That's not acceptable. Ms. Ueda, an honest and handsome young man like Mayor Huang, is too risky. We must be responsible to the party and the people and protect the new mayor. If necessary, let me go Take a risk..." Tian Manfang blushed slightly: "Assistant Xia, if you are willing to take risks with me, I am fine, but there is one person who will not let you off lightly! Just wait and see. I will let Shan Zhaoer take care of you Man. Alright, I won’t disturb your teacher-student reunion. Well, this is a trifle, to help everyone..." Lu Hua smiled and said, "Why, are you afraid that I will neglect Mayor Huang?" Tian Manfang smiled: "I'm afraid you may make Mayor Huang eat too much, so I'll give you something light to refresh your taste." As she spoke, she opened the lid of the lunch box.Several people looked down together, and saw a box containing golden millet porridge, a box containing Beijing Liuhesheng pickles sprinkled with green coriander leaves, and a third box containing hot rice porridge. focus circle. Everyone present was a little surprised. That's right, she has never dated Huang Jiangbei, how did she know that Huang Jiangbei likes this one?Xia Zhiyuan laughed, and held on to Huang Jiangbei, insisting that he "explain" whether he had hooked up with Tian Manfang through a hotline.Huang Jiangbei blushed, and just kept muttering: "Oh, this Tian Manfang is not simple...it's really not simple..." The afternoon symposium was not going well.For a long time after the opening, no one spoke, and everyone froze there, and the atmosphere seemed particularly awkward and tense.Ge Huiyuan's complexion was even worse, and the hand holding the teacup was shaking all the time.Later, Tian Manfang mobilized a few words, and even said that if everyone felt that they could not speak freely because of the presence of company leaders, she could avoid it.Before others responded to her words, Ge Huiyuan suddenly stood up, glanced blankly at the participants, turned around and walked out of the conference room.Of course, this not only did not help to improve the atmosphere of the meeting, but even worsened everyone's mood.After the meeting ended, Huang Jiangbei and Xia Zhiyuan returned to Ge Huiyuan's house to ask Lu Hua about Pingping's news.Lu Hua said that apart from receiving a mysterious phone call from no one at home yesterday, there was no other news about Pingping.No one in the family knew why she left.Finally, Huang Jiangbei tentatively asked, can we find a place where Teacher Ge can go outside to recuperate for a while and have a thorough physical examination?I didn't expect Lu Hua to react so strongly to this proposal.This has always made her particularly disgusted that someone proposed to have Lao Ge check his "disease". "Old Ge is not sick. He is not sick at all, but he is too worried and tired. Now some people inside and outside the company deliberately create public opinion that Lao Ge is sick. They have ulterior motives. They want to push all the responsibility for not doing a good job in the company to Lao Ge Ge Yiren is to drive away Lao Ge..." She always countered like this.Although he didn't say it so intensely today, he clearly expressed the same meaning to Huang Jiangbei. Huang Jiangbei naturally understood that this was another extremely sensitive "minefield", so he wisely stopped talking about it.After a while, he went into the back room and comforted Ge Huiyuan, then turned around and told Lu Hua and the younger sister to inform Lu Hua and the younger sister in time if there was any news of mediocrity, and then went downstairs with Xia Zhiyuan. Xia Zhiyuan waited for the car to slowly drive out of the headquarters compound of Wanfang Company, and said to Huang Jiangbei, "Wanfang's situation is not optimistic...I'm really afraid that Mr. Ge's situation will not be able to withstand him..." Huang Jiangbei made a gesture to tell him to stop talking.He didn't want the driver or anyone else to know about Ge Huiyuan's condition.In Zhangtai City, this is also a hot topic that many people discuss behind the scenes: Is it a mistake to choose an old intellectual like Ge Huiyuan to take on the burden of Wanfang Company?Is the key to solving the Wanfang problem lies in replacing Ge Huiyuan? At this moment, the driver handed Huang Jiangbei a sixteen-carat paper package. Huang Jiangbei touched the paper bag casually and asked, "What is it?" The driver explained: "In the afternoon, after you went to a meeting, an unknown person sneaked into the car." "Oh, stuffed in secretly? So mysterious. Look, what is it?" Huang Jiangbei handed the bag to Xia Zhiyuan.Xia Zhiyuan opened the bag, and inside was a roster—the roster of all senior staff of Wanfang Company. "I never asked anyone for this roster." Huang Jiangbei flipped through the roster and said. The driver simply turned on the dome lights in the car.Xia Zhiyuan opened the roster and checked it carefully. It soon became apparent that the roster was well-known.The person who sent the roster wanted to explain a certain problem through the roster.Someone (perhaps the one who delivered the roster) put little red circles in front of some names.You don't need to look carefully to see that all the people circled in red have the surname Tian.On the first page, there are not too many people surnamed Tian, ​​and there are few red circles, but as you go further, there are more and more people surnamed Tian, ​​and more and more red circles. By the last few pages, people surnamed Tian almost accounted for more than half. What's the meaning? "Put it away, go back and check it out." Huang Jiangbei ordered lightly, then leaned his upper body on the back of the car seat, closed his eyes and went to rest. Not long after the car went, a large group of people suddenly appeared on the road.Before the driver stopped the car, those people ran towards the car one after another.When they came closer to have a look, they turned out to be a group of teachers and students led by Shao Daren and Hua Suisui.Someone in the crowd asked loudly: "Is it Mayor Huang's car?" Someone else shouted: "We are looking for Mayor Huang..." Before Xia Zhiyuan got out of the car to greet the teachers, Huang Jiangbei got out of the car first, and strode over to meet Shao Daren and Hua Sui.Huang Jiangbei was not only surprised but also very happy to meet this group of old middle school classmates on the highway.He was thinking of finding an opportunity to meet them in the kiln.The famous "turmoil in the kiln" is bound to further expand Zhangtai's instability.To stabilize Zhangtai's hearts, of course the kiln must be stable.He and Secretary Lin talked about this that day, and expressed that they would take time to meet with the teachers in the kiln as soon as possible, listen to their opinions face to face, and do some two-way adjustment work.Secretary Lin immediately expressed support for his idea. Naturally, the road was not a place for in-depth conversations, but Huang Jiangbei never expected that the old classmates would be so excited when they saw him.Hua Suisui just said "Hello", like a child who has been greatly wronged, turned around and choked up, which caused several old classmates to lower their heads immediately, with red eye circles. say.There were also a few young teachers who saw the old teacher's excitement, so they all stopped talking with interest, and only occasionally glanced curiously at the new mayor in front of them from the corners of their eyes, and the atmosphere became extremely heavy for a while.After a while, Shao Daren muttered "As for it", and exchanged pleasantries with Huang Jiangbei first, and then slowly adjusted everyone's emotions.Huang Jiangbei felt that it was not too late.He turned around and asked Lao Xia if there were any important arrangements in the city tonight.Lao Xia thought for a while and told him that there was nothing too important except that the administrative department wanted to talk to him about his living and housing arrangements. Huang Jiangbei immediately said to Xia Zhiyuan: "Then I will live in the kiln with the masters and follow them tonight. Tell the administrative department that matters in life must be done according to my opinion. Without my consent, you are not allowed to move." My current residence. I will definitely convey it to you." Xia Zhiyuan smiled and said, "You don't want a new house, let them get it for me." Huang Jiangbei also smiled and said, "I don't want it, so you can stay for me honestly." Then he pulled Lao Xia to the car, lowered his voice and ordered: "Send a car to pick me up early tomorrow." Xia Zhiyuan said: "Have nothing to say to Shang Bing? That's why I let him be a mandarin duck for one night, and then I have to stay alone in an empty room the next night. You are too cruel." Huang Jiangbei punched him lightly, and said with a smile: "Call her for me. Also, you go back overnight to verify the authenticity of this roster." Xia Zhiyuan was startled: "Do you really want to verify it?" "right." "why?" "Details, I will tell you later. If possible, by the way, I will also check the education level, work ability, and how to enter the company of the senior Chinese staff in Wanfang; especially specify for me, from the perspective of work practice, How many are competent and how many are not at all..." "When will it be?" "Deliver it to my office tomorrow morning." Xia Zhiyuan sighed: "Okay... your work will always be in a hurry." "in addition……" "Anything else?" Huang Jiangbei lowered his voice: "Go and visit Zheng Yanzhang quietly for me..." Xia Zhiyuan was taken aback again: "Secretary Lin didn't let you intervene..." Huang Jiangbei said: "Did I say that I want to intervene? I just asked you to visit him for me." "That……" "Stop asking!"
