The days that followed seemed to become peaceful.
Gu Yunyang only occasionally goes to the capital to complete transactions with tycoons.
Occasionally, I would send something to Director Qin.
He occasionally cracks a joke with the people who are waiting for him.
It made me laugh at myself, too.
As for the anger and the feigned anger that some people showed during this process, that was just part of it.
Gu Yunyang treated it as just a play.
None of this has anything to do with him.
In Suzhou, things are progressing very smoothly.
Gu Yunyang even set up several black markets within Guangdong Province, and they were all progressing very smoothly.
In Shanghai, Gu Yunyang's transaction also proceeded very smoothly.
Gu Yunyang was willing to continue like this.
Things at Baishi Commune have returned to normal.
Of course, this applies to Gu Yunyang.
For others, it's not like that.
After Zhou Zhigang left, he took a group of people with him.
After these people left, many seats became empty.
Although the reason is not mentioned above, the fact remains that the space is empty.
Many people are eager to make their move and see if they can take it a step further.
Even those without positions or who didn't work in the commune wanted to see if they had a chance to get into the commune.
There are also those who want to be transferred.
Various kinds, too numerous to mention.
But none of this has anything to do with Gu Yunyang.
Chen, the staff member, also wanted to switch departments and get a promotion.
But Zhou Zhigang was transferred, and his biggest backer was gone, so there was nothing he could do.
Or rather, Zhou Zhigang was never his backer, and Zhou Zhigang never intended to promote Chen.
Everything was just a rosy prospect that Zhou Zhigang painted for Chen, a toxic prospect.
It was just a pie in the sky, but Secretary Chen believed it.
Others wouldn't easily believe the empty promises made by such people.
Watching Officer Chen jumping around, constantly emphasizing that he used to write articles for Zhou Zhigang.
It seemed like everyone knew he was the best writer in the commune.
But what's the use of just being able to write articles if you're working in the commune?
All that fancy rhetoric, in reality, doesn't do much for practical matters.
Therefore, when Zhou Zhigang was in charge, Chen's drafts were indeed very good.
However, after Zhou Zhigang, Hao Jianshe took over.
Hao Jianshe's requirements are different. Compared to Zhou Zhigang's previous requirement that the manuscript be pleasant to listen to and read, Hao Jianshe is more pragmatic.
In fact, Chen's approach is completely contrary to Hao Jianshe's requirements.
This is similar to the reform movement on the style of writing in the imperial examinations initiated by Ouyang Xiu during the Northern Song Dynasty.
The imperial examinations at that time were rather extravagant. Essays were required to pile up ornate language and use all sorts of allusions and words that others couldn't understand. The more they did so, the more impressive they seemed.
Ouyang Xiu insisted on simplification, advocating the abolition of the empty and ornate parallel prose style and promoting the creation of classical prose with rich content and plain language.
These two events occurred in different places and were related to two different things.
But they are similar in spirit.
The other commune cadres were like the candidates taking the imperial examination, and Hao Jianshe was the person in charge of overseeing the examination.
These candidates, of course, had to figure out the thoughts and preferences of the person in charge and cater to their tastes in order to be given important positions.
Chen's writing is indeed excellent, but good writing without substantial content is useless.
