Chapter 10 Chapter 10 Confusion in my heart

It had been a few days since Jia Shizhen handed over the batch of investigation materials, but he always felt a little uneasy, even to the point of fear.The last time he was criticized by the same director for this batch of inspection materials. Although he accepted Tang Yulin's suggestion and often did some work against his will, he felt that the same director was very serious about the Wang Xuexi he submitted. The investigation materials are still not satisfactory.When he rewrote Wang Xuexi's investigation materials, he felt so heavy that he even felt a little despicable, a little sorry for so many people organized by the provincial division.He hates his disgraceful behavior, dare not tell the truth, dare not insist on the truth, and even carefully package and praise the garbage of the officialdom...

"Shizhen, please clear up this material." At this time, Tang Yulin stood in front of Wang Xuexi with the investigation materials. Jia Shizhen didn't know what Director Tong was dissatisfied with this material, she felt flustered, and immediately stood up to take the material.Tang Yulin smiled meaningfully at him, and then lightly patted him on the shoulder twice. Jia Shizhen looked at Wang Xuexi's investigation materials, many of which were revised handwriting by the same director.What puzzled him was that Wang Xuexi's birth date had been changed from "April 1938" to "October 1940"; "Junior high school culture" was changed to "high school"; Changed to "Graduated from Xiaowangzhuang High School, Sihai County, Shandong Province in 1956".At the end of the first paragraph of the main expression, the phrase "stand firmly and have a clear-cut banner in various political movements" is added.The director of the same division also noted: the comrade's achievements should be illustrated in the main performance column; the shortcomings should be deleted from the last two words "some comrades report that they like playing cards, sometimes their attitude is rough at work, and their methods are simple".

Jia Shizhen was stunned, feeling that she was not even as good as a primary school student, and actually wrote wrong the numbers copied from the file.After thinking about it, he couldn't understand why he copied Wang Xuexi's date of birth wrongly. Isn't this a big joke?Can such a staff stay in the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee?Thinking of this, he found Wang Xuexi's relevant materials again. On a cadre resume, Wang Xuexi's birth date was clearly written "April 1938".He read a lot of materials about Wang Xuexi, but there was no word "October 1940"!Jia Shizhen was a little confused, and he thought over and over again: What is the basis for the director of the same department to change Wang Xuexi's birth date to "October 1940"?Director Tong's detailed information on Wang Xuexi shows that his relationship with Wang Xuexi is extraordinary, and now he actually changed Wang Xuexi's date of birth and education level.This shocked him very much, and he felt an elusive mystery about the investigation and promotion of cadres.

At this time, Lu Jianhua asked him to answer the phone in the director's office, and he was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He didn't know what was wrong with the investigation materials he had written.If Director Tong is still not satisfied with the materials, he really doesn't know what to do.Jia Shizhen entered the director's room trembling and haha, and stood in front of the same director at a loss for a while.Seeing the same director looking at him with a smile on his face, Jia Shizhen was a little confused, I don't know why the same director suddenly showed a smiling face.Since he came to the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, he had never seen the director of the same department smile at him.In his impression, the same director always treats him with a dark face, why is the sun coming out from the west today?At this time, the same director pointed to the receiver of the phone that was placed aside and said: "Pick up the phone." Jia Shizhen looked at the same director timidly, and carefully picked up the receiver. Just as the receiver was attached to his ear, Wang Xuexi's laughter came from inside. , which made him both embarrassed and angry, but he still suppressed his emotions, and he immediately realized that this must be the intention of the director.

Putting down the phone, Jia Shizhen's face flushed red.The same director looked up at him, he just smiled awkwardly, and left the director's room at a loss. Back in the office, Jia Shizhen kept thinking: Wang Xuexi called the director's office, and it was the same director who answered the call. Could it be that Wang Xuexi called the director's office just to answer Lingling?He can only make various assumptions, and of course he doesn't know what the mystery is.To be honest, Jia Shizhen really doesn't want to deal with people like Wang Xuexi.But there was one thing he felt at ease, and the director would not have any opinion on him because Wang Xuexi called the director's office.Of course, no matter whether it was a "Hongmen Banquet" or a sea of ​​swords and flames, he could only bite the bullet and attend.

It's time to get off work, thinking that Wang Xuexi has sent a car to pick him up, Jia Shizhen sits at his desk deliberately delaying the time.But I was silently asking myself in my heart, should I go to Wang Xuexi's invitation or not?He even regretted a little, how could he run into him in Tianle Nightclub by accident that day!He is not used to Wang Xuexi's ruffian personality.Now Wang Xuexi knows that he is a staff member of the cadre department of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, wearing a mask everywhere, and only saw his real face when he had a car accident on the road that day.At this moment, I even think that he secretly counted Wang Xuexi's democratic evaluation votes that night, and 51 people voted, and he got 27 incompetent votes, accounting for 52.9%.There is also Director Mei's evaluation of him, saying that his advantage "is that he wants to be an official" and "just wants to be in power", saying that he has three characteristics: "First, he is politically immature; second, he is not clean economically; , indiscretion in life.” And there are theories and examples in each piece, but all of these are like playing the piano to the cow. After listening to it, they just go in through one ear and go out through the other ear.

When writing materials, Jia Shizhen also asked herself how to deal with these key issues, and how to make an appropriate written evaluation of a deputy department-level cadre.He didn't know and had no experience, but he read a lot of "model essays", but he didn't see any of them written like that.He never imagined that under the psychological pressure of deeply feeling sorry for the people in the Provincial Divisional Office, he had tried his best to beautify Wang Xuexi in the first draft, but the same director was critical of the materials.There is really no other way but to "speak more good things and less bad things" against conscience.Fortunately, he didn't go astray at the beginning. If he really wrote the main opinions of the masses as "criticism" instead of praise in Wang Xuexi's materials, then the director of the same department would not have scolded him!The director of the same department even changed Wang Xuexi's date of birth and education level, what else can't be changed?

He realized a truth: everything must follow the leader's intention. During the years at the Wucheng Prefectural Committee Party School, he developed another character, free and undisciplined.Standing on the podium, you can brag as you want, and you can talk as you want.Bragging, chatting, making loud noises in the office, no one cares about anyone, sometimes when the principal comes, everyone will still talk about the mountains.How to prepare and teach lessons has never been asked by the leader.Everyone knows very well that the Party School of the Prefectural Party Committee has no promotion rate and no competitions. Most of the students are township leaders and cadres with mixed degrees. No one puts their minds on their studies.In those few years, he hardly made any progress, let alone any insights into life.But after just over two months in the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, there are so many gains and progress.It's really worthy of people comparing the Organization Department to the cradle of cadres and the political ladder!

I don't know how long it was after get off work, Jia Shizhen slowly cleaned up the desk, stood at the door of the office for a while, and then hurried downstairs.After exiting the gate of the provincial committee, he looked to the right. Wang Xuexi was a caring person. Naturally, he would not park his car in front of the gate of the provincial committee. It would be too eye-catching. After all, this is not a job.Jia Shizhen saw that there were no vehicles here, but he couldn't stay here for a long time, lest people would see that he was waiting for someone.Then he walked along the side of the road, when suddenly a woman behind him called him, Jia Shizhen turned his head abruptly, Xiao Zhang smiled sweetly at him, waved, and an Audi sedan drove over from the side of the road.

After getting in the car, Jia Shizhen thought that Wang Xuexi would invite him alone, and would Director Tong and Tang Yulin come?He recalled the scene when he was answering the phone in the director's room, and the director was smiling, showing no sign of displeasure.The relationship between Director Tong and Wang Xuexi is by no means ordinary, because he did not appear in many bureau-level cadres in the process of inspecting, but he personally participated in the inspection work of the second-level bureau where Wang Xuexi was, and Wang Xuexi personally picked them up.Director Tong spent a lot of time thinking about Wang Xuexi's investigation materials.From the bottom of his heart, Jia Shizhen didn't want to talk to someone like Wang Xuexi. If it wasn't for the face of the same director, or because he was afraid that the same director would be unhappy, he would definitely reject him without hesitation.Besides, what did Wang Xuexi ask Jia Shizhen to do?Can he, a newly seconded staff member in the cadre department, pose any threat to Wang Xuexi's promotion?impossible.At this moment, Jia Shizhen suddenly thought of Wang Xuexi's investigation materials. Could it be... thinking that the moment he answered the phone, he looked at the same director. Although he was too surprised by Wang Xuexi's invitation, he suddenly felt that he could not refuse.If he refuses, maybe Director Tong will be unhappy.When he decided to go to the appointment, he felt a sense of guilt again.Is his pen doing something?

The car was parked downstairs where Jia Shizhen lived, and he hurried upstairs.Lingling was anxiously waiting for him.Jia Shizhen said that Wang Xuexi sent a car to pick them up, Lingling felt a little strange that a department-level cadre actually invited him as a seconded person, but it was hard to say anything, so she had to go with her husband. The car drove through the twilight of the city in the evening, and Jia Shizhen realized that they had arrived in the southern suburbs only after they got out of the only intact tall ancient city gate in the provincial capital of Moyou.The mountains in the southern suburbs scenic area are picturesque, with bursts of pines and waves;The villas on the hillside have different styles.Before the reform and opening up, the place was closed for many years, and only when senior leaders came, it was specially opened for reception.After the reform and opening up, the market economy has become increasingly active, and these mysterious places in the past have begun to receive tourists.The hotel and catering departments do everything possible to attract customers with various tricks. The car wound up along the winding mountain road, and stopped in a wide parking lot after ten minutes.Jia Shizhen opened the door and saw rows of high-end cars neatly parked in the parking lot.Xiao Zhang led the way, and Jia Shizhen and Lingling followed.Climbing a few steps leads to a marble platform, a large revolving glass door, and two tall flower baskets. When people walk along the revolving glass door, they will feel that they are in a garden full of blooming flowers. Looking around, a round of setting sun floating on the water surface at the intersection of sky and water in the western sky, just like an oil painting that has just been painted.The setting sun slowly sinks into the water, the sunset glow continues to recede, the twilight gradually expands, and the scenery is very beautiful. Under the guidance of Xiao Zhang, they walked through the corridor and entered Villa No. 5. They pushed open the door of the living room on the first floor, and a refreshing and refreshing air flowed in. The living room was spacious and tidy, with scarlet carpets and beige walls, but there was no one there. silhouette. Jia Shizhen stood in the center of the living room and looked around at the spotless mahogany sofa and the huge oil painting of nude beauties on the wall.For some reason, at this moment, he was not surprised by this luxurious villa.Just wondering, how much does it cost for such a villa to receive senior leaders and foreign guests for a day?Director Wang was so generous to entertain him in such a high-class place.This fully confirmed the most prominent problem in the reflections of some masses during the inspection of the cadres and the letter from the people stuffed into the office-spend and waste.As for what Xiao Zhang and Lingling beside him were talking about, he didn't hear clearly at all. On the second floor, there is a wide corridor in front of you, with finely carved handrails next to it.There are two floor-to-ceiling craft glass doors on the front. When you push open the glass doors, you can see Wang Xuexi and other four people are waving their arms and playing cards in full swing.Seeing Jia Shizhen coming in, Wang Xuexi hurriedly put down his poker cards, went up to him enthusiastically, grabbed Jia Shizhen's hand with joy, and said, "Brother Jia, how is this place? Please come here with your wife for the weekend, you won't have Opinion?!" Only then did Jia Shizhen realize that today is the weekend, and tomorrow and the next two days will be weekends.He smiled and looked at these people, except for Wang Xuexi, and the deputy director Wang Yong, and he couldn't remember the names of the other two.Xiao Li, who played cards with them that day, came forward and shook Lingling's hand.Wang Xuexi introduced them one by one.Then he said: "Go to the banquet first, after dinner or play cards, or take a sauna, or dance, in short, here is a complete service, everything you need." Wang Xuexi took Jia Shizhen's hand, as warmly as he was treating the chief executive, and entered from the right of the living room, and there was a spacious dining room, where people sat separately as guests and hosts, as if they were in a ceremony.Only then did Jia Shizhen realize that there was no one else in the organization department, and he couldn't help wondering why Wang Xuexi didn't invite Tong Shiju and Tang Yulin? The banquet started, and Jia Shizhen felt that the environment here was elegant and unique, not to mention that he had never experienced such a high-end banquet.He was really confused about Wang Xuexi, but for the sake of the director's face, he was afraid of giving the director a bad impression.Besides, I have not been formally transferred to the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee. During this period of time, if the director of the same department interferes with it, it will be difficult to say the problem.However, he didn't know whether Wang Xuexi would put such an extravagant arrangement under his name. If that was the case, Wang Xuexi would grab his braids... Anxiety and restlessness. Wang Xuexi was very interested. He drank more and more wine, and became more and more ruffian. Regardless of the presence of the lady, taking advantage of the wine, he shook his head and said, "Let everyone guess." He looked at everyone and continued, "Impotence. Names of three people in the list. Those who guess correctly will be rewarded with a prize of 10,000 yuan." Everyone looked at me, I looked at you, only Lingling lowered her head. Jia Shizhen secretly scolded Wang Xuexi for being too obscene, but she thought of Ruan Xiaoer in her heart, and concluded that one of the three names Wang Xuexi mentioned must be Ruan Xiaoer, but he didn't want to say it, and just looked at everyone expressionlessly. Wang Yong bared his black teeth and said, "Director Wang, how do you guess, you should tell the answer!" Wang Xuexi was beaming, looked at the crowd proudly, laughed and said, "Ruan Xiaoer, Shi Jin, Wu Yong!" Everyone was surprised for a while, and suddenly burst into laughter. Wang Xuexi explained: "Ruan Xiaoer should be called Ruan Xiaoer; Shi Jin should be called Shi Jin; Wu Yong should be called Wu Yong." Wang Yong laughed loudly and said: "Okay, I have a level, what do you think of impotence, Ruan (soft) Xiaoer-Shi Jin (strength)-Wu (useless)." Wang Xuexi looked at Lingling and said with a smile: "I'm only half meat and half vegetarian. There is a lady here today. Let's save the meat for later!" Wang Yong said: "This is Director Wang's masterpiece! This work can also be rated as a first-class writer." The noisy dinner party is finally over.Jia Shizhen proposed to go back, and Wang Xuexi said that this is also a rare opportunity, so just play here for two days.Xiao Zhang and Li took Ling Ling to visit the night view of mountains and rivers. Everyone said it was a major sight in Moyou Province. Jia Shizhen pushed the boat along with the water and boarded the boat along the pontoon bridge with everyone. I saw the area around the clear stream, like a dragon swimming, with stone railings on both sides. There are all kinds of wind lanterns made of crystal glass on the top, shining like silver light and snow waves; emerald pines, willows and apricots, hanging thousands of lanterns; in the pool, the lanterns of lotus, mallard and egret compete for brilliance from top to bottom, and the water and sky are radiant, like a glass world, a world of jewels. .Various bonsai along the way, bead curtains, embroidered curtains, osmanthus and orchids.Such a beautiful scenery, not to mention Jia Shizhen and Ge Lingling who have lived in Wucheng for a long time, even Wang Xuexi and others are also rare opportunities. Swimming until late at night, everyone returned to villa No. 5. Wang Xuexi and others invited Jia Shizhen to play cards.The rest played poker in the living room on the first floor. Jia Shizhen finally felt a little more relaxed. Looking at this wide, large, clean and tidy double bed, she lay down on the bed. Lingling pushed open the washroom, and saw that the washroom was as big as her own bedroom, and the large oval surf bathtub was already filled with water. She didn't care about other facilities in the room, and turned to Jia Shizhen and said, "Shizhen, here's There is a whirlpool bathtub, take a bath before going to bed!" At the end of the day, Jia Shizhen hoped that she could take a good bath, so she went to the washroom and saw that he had never seen such a surf bathtub before. She put her arms around Lingling and said, "Let's take a couple bath too!" "Have you learned badly too?" "How can this be called learning badly? It's justified, and it's not sneaky." "Full of nonsense." Lingling said as she took off her dress, exposing her limbs as white as fat. Looking at his wife's half-naked body, Jia Shizhen felt impulsive, hugged Lingling and kissed her. After a while, he threw off his clothes and hugged Lingling. Into the whirlpool tub.This surf bathtub is not like a small bathtub in an ordinary hotel, two people can play freely in the bathtub.Jia Shizhen hugged Lingling on her body, and Lingling hugged his neck tightly.He thought that those so-called mandarin duck baths were probably like this.So he admired Lingling's beautiful and moving body to his heart's content. He had never played in such a big bathtub with two naked bodies in such a big bathtub for so many years of marriage. After waking up, it was already half past eight in the morning of the next day. Jia Shizhen didn't want to stay here any longer, so she woke up Lingling. After the two of them washed, Jia Shizhen gently opened the bedroom door, left a note and pulled Lingling quietly went downstairs. The sun was shining today, and the temperature in early summer gave people a comfortable and refreshing feeling. They walked out of the gate of the Nanjiao Hotel and came to the side of the road. Just in time, a taxi came, and the two of them got into the taxi and drove to the city. Back home, Jia Shizhen felt as if she had a dream, but she dared not recall what happened yesterday.I feel more and more that Wang Xuexi is a little unfathomable, and I don't know what the director Tong and Wang Xuexi are doing behind the scenes, and I feel a little dazed and uneasy. On Monday, Jia Shizhen was still thinking about Wang Xuexi from time to time, and she didn't know what she was busy with all day. When she entered the house after get off work at night, Lingling said, "Shizhen, Shi Yuan came to invite us this afternoon." "What's up?" "After you left at noon that day, Shi Yuan told me that stepping into the gate of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee is the most convenient way for a person to pursue an official career." Lingling said, "Shi Yuan said that you still need to use the provincial newspaper to fully Show off your talents." Jia Shizhen looked at Lingling, as if thinking about something, but didn't speak. Lingling added: "He said that at the right time, he would help you publish some articles in the provincial newspapers to expand your influence and increase your popularity." Jia Shizhen said: "I'm still a borrower. If I want to be famous, my priority now is to be transferred to the organization department as soon as possible." Lingling came over, took Shizhen's hand and said: "Tonight he has an appointment with some classmates, and he wants us to attend. He still needs to find time to discuss with you in detail." Jia Shizhen thought for a while, and suddenly his heart brightened. Although the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee has not formally transferred him in, it is only a matter of time. If he can really publish a few influential theoretical articles in the provincial newspaper, then he will definitely It will surpass others in the organization department, because the provincial newspaper is the official newspaper of the provincial party committee and the provincial government.Thinking of this, he readily agreed to Lingling's proposal. The two came to the street, hailed a taxi, and while talking, they came to the hotel. Four men and one woman in the box stood up together and held their hands.Shi Yuan has already met, so he is like a very familiar friend.He said, "This is Mr. Jia Shizhen from the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee!" "This is Director Zhou of the Theory Department of our newspaper!" Shi Yuan introduced. Director Zhou hurriedly handed over his business card. Jia Shizhen took a quick look and found out that Director Zhou's name was Zhou Daozhi.So, once again tightly held Director Zhou's hand. Lingling was busy shaking hands with several other people, except for Shi Yuan's wife Xiang Ping, they were all their high school classmates. Everyone sat down according to the guests and hosts. Of course, Zhou Daozhi and Jia Shizhen sat at the head, Lingling sat next to Shizhen, and Xiang Ping was close to Shi Yuan.At this time Lingling smiled and said: "Guo Xiaofeng, Li Datong, I wronged you two today." Jia Shizhen nodded to Guo and Li. At this time, one lady served the tea, and the other lady poured the tea.Then handed over a white towel.Then, without asking for advice, everyone was poured a glass of beer. After three cups, Shi Yuan held the cup and said, "Director Zhou, Brother Jia, I respect you two!" Zhou Daozhi said: "No, no, Shi Yuan, what is your level, how can you respect me and Mr. Jia!" "Director Zhou, listen to me," Shi Yuan said, pressing Zhou Daozhi's hand, "Of course I know it's inappropriate to toast like this, but you have to understand my whole heart. You think, Mr. Jia is a member of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee." An important member of the cadre department of the agency, he is in charge of cadres above the deputy department level of the provincial agency. Maybe you, Director Zhou, will ask others someday. And Mr. Jia is from the Chinese Department, and now he is in such a situation. If you want to publish a masterpiece in our newspaper, I still need to thank you!" "Well, since Shi Yuan said that, I understand it!" Zhou Daozhi raised his wine glass as he spoke, and the three of them touched each other lightly, and each took a big sip. "Mr. Jia, if someone like me is useful in the future, please say something, and I will try my best." Zhou Daozhi said. "Thank you Director Zhou!" Jia Shizhen still spoke cautiously, and the next sentence was already on his lips, but he didn't say it: If Director Zhou is useful to my younger brother in the future, I will do my best to help. After sitting for a while, Jia Shizhen looked at his watch and said to Shi Yuan, "It's almost there!" At this time, a man in a short-sleeved shirt, floral tie, and shiny back hair appeared at the door of the box and said loudly, "Hey, it's Shi Da reporter!" "Mr. You." Shi Yuan stood up and walked around to the door from behind, holding Mr. You's hand, "It's been a long time since I have given you a drink with Mr. You, so I will definitely have a good drink with you some other day." "Okay, someday I'll be the host, please!" Mr. You said. "Come, come, come, Mr. You, let me introduce you to two important people." Shi Yuan pulled Mr. You and said to Jia Shizhen, "This is Director Jia Shizhen of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee." Mr. You shook Jia Shizhen's hand and said, "You Tianliang, Haitian Group." He took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Jia Shizhen with both hands. Shi Yuan turned to Zhou Daozhi again and said, "Mr. You, this is Comrade Zhou Daozhi, Director of Theory Department of our newspaper." The two shook hands, and Shi Yuan continued to introduce Ge Lingling and several others.Then You Tianliang pulled Shi Yuan outside the door and said in a low voice, "I will be responsible for your bills today." Shi Yuan only said that Mr. You is too polite, so he couldn't ask for more.
