Mother Shen thought that her request was reasonable and the other party would definitely agree after hearing it.

So he handed the receiver to Father Shen.

Unexpectedly, President Hu just said something lightly after hearing it.

"I've already understood the situation you just reported."

"But as far as I know, Editor Huo and Comrade Jiang are actually relatives."

"Exchanging a few pleasantries when meeting someone is normal and does not violate any regulations."

"Also, the gate only allows entry to unregistered personnel. This is a rule set by the newspaper to ensure work order, and is not directed at you. Please understand."

President Hu's words were clear and his meaning was obvious.

Regulations are regulations. It’s only natural that you are not allowed in since your family didn’t register.

Besides, they are relatives, so what's wrong with saying a few words when they meet?

As for the subsequent interview work, Huo Tinghuai has already expressed his attitude and will not accept it anymore.

Editor-in-Chief Wen still has several days to go.

The remaining editors could be arranged, but President Hu thought about it and decided to say it out loud.

"We can reschedule the interview, but a good interview requires the joint efforts of both parties."

"I hope Comrade Shen can make some preparations in advance, otherwise even the best editor will be unable to make a living without rice."

"Do you think I'm right, Deputy Commander Shen?"

You're almost saying this, your son has nothing in his stomach, who can you blame?

Father Shen is not stupid either, so he can naturally understand the other party’s subtext.

But he couldn't get angry, so he could only bite the bullet and add a sentence for his son.

"During this period, he was at the construction site every day and never got a good rest."

"But President Hu, you're right. Don't worry, it won't happen again next time."

President Hu is also a shrewd person. Since people have said so, it would be meaningless if he still refuses to give in.

In this way, the two sides exchanged a few more polite words before hanging up the phone.

“What’s wrong? What did President Hu say?” Seeing that Father Shen’s face was ashen and sweat began to form on his forehead, Mother Shen was shocked.

Seeing this, Chen Dong looked at Guo Dian nervously, "Dad, please say something. What's going on?"

"What else? You've completely disgraced me today!"

Father Shen was so angry that he slapped his own face, "You are a jerk who has more trouble than success! At this critical moment..."

"Okay, let's talk it over."

Mother Shen really loves her son, so she started to protect him before anything happened.

“The child is grown up now, you should give him some face.

"Save your face for nothing! Look at what he did!"

Father Shen was so angry that he couldn't help but ask, "You said you were full and didn't do anything?"

"Why did we plan this whole thing? Now look what happened. We've offended so many people!"

"Dad, isn't he just a small editor at a newspaper? What's there to be ashamed of?"

Chen Dong was inexplicably scolded and felt a little dissatisfied.

"You have no idea how despicable they were when they came to the newspaper office just now. The questions they asked were more tricky than the last. They just wanted to embarrass me!"

"Shut up!"

Father Shen was so angry that he interrupted him, "What did I tell you? I told you not to just go out and socialize these days. You should read more information and prepare for the questions you might ask in the interview. Did you listen?"

"You didn't listen! Now it's over, President Hu almost called you a idiot. Now you're satisfied?"

Seeing her husband's face looking as if the sky had fallen, Mother Shen was quite puzzled.

But before she could speak, Father Shen sat back in his chair with a dejected look on his face.

"It's okay if you offend a newspaper editor, but do you know who he is?"

At this time, the few people present had not yet realized the seriousness of the situation.

When Shen's father said, "He is Chairman Huo's nephew! His father is the director of the Beijing Public Security Bureau... That's not right..."

As if he had thought of something, Father Shen's face turned visibly gray.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to call me Director Huo anymore soon. I heard that after the New Year, he will probably be transferred to the Ministry of Public Security as Deputy Minister."

Originally, he wanted to find an opportunity to ease the relationship between the two families, but...

The more Father Shen thought about it, the more desperate he became. "Not only have we failed to get close to the Huo family's two thighs, but now you have offended them all!"
