The howling cold wind came from outside the window, forming a sharp contrast with the steaming hot pot in the house. Li Xiuyuan had no idea when the wine glass in his hand was empty.
His expression was silent, but there was a hint of reminiscence in his eyes. At this moment, he thought of his previous life, the ten-year golden period of development. This was a time-limited race, and if he missed it, he missed it.
This is not a situation where you are slow at every step, but if you are slow at one step, no matter how fast you run, the gates that are stuck at your age will fall down, blocking your way forward.
Pang Zhifeng picked up the wine bottle on the table, poured a glass of wine for Li Xiuyuan, then filled his own glass. Without clinking glasses with Li Xiuyuan, he picked up the glass and drank it all.
"So I envy you. When I was your age, I was like a man who had made a name for himself through my own hard work. I thought ability was everything, so I worked overtime and stayed up late, braving the wind and rain. I thought my efforts would one day be noticed by my bosses."
"Haha." Pang Zhifeng's face showed a sarcastic look. "The boss really saw it. He assigned all the dirty work to me, and avoided me when there was any good time. I woke up too late and missed the golden decade. I was too slow in the early days."
Li Xiuyuan looked at Pang Zhifeng. Who could have thought that the shrewd Pang Zhifeng would have such a moment?
"But you are different, really, Xiuyuan. You are capable and understand the ways of the world. You know how to keep your head down while pulling the cart, but also know how to look up and see the road. You will have a smooth journey. I envy you, and sometimes even a little jealous."
As Pang Zhifeng spoke, Li Xiuyuan spoke modestly but sighed deeply in his heart. In fact, he was not as good as Pang Zhifeng in his previous life.
"You are too polite, Ren. I am still young and still need your help to lead the way..."
Pang Zhifeng shook his head: "Xiuyuan, you are very outstanding. My life experience is of no help to you. I am just sharing some of my experiences to give you some reference. At that time, our unit..."
Next, Pang Zhifeng talked about a former excellent writer of his. Because his writing ability was so good, he had several opportunities for promotion, but his leader was reluctant to let him go. He even left him to the next leader before he was promoted.
Pang Zhifeng knew that he didn't need to explain it too clearly, as a smart person like Li Xiuyuan would understand it immediately.
Besides, so much groundwork had already been laid before, so talking about this situation wouldn't make Li Xiuyuan think too much.
Li Xiuyuan did understand Pang Zhifeng's hint. He admitted that what Pang Zhifeng said made sense. Sometimes, it is an ability to make the leader dependent on you, but once it exceeds that limit, it will be a different story.
The leader is unwilling to let him go.
However, Li Xiuyuan saw through Pang Zhifeng's thoughts at a glance. He was afraid that he would not leave. What happened before him was that he was moving slowly, and what was the leader who was not letting him go now?
It seems that the previous and the next parts are connected.
This means that although the government office can quickly promote people to deputy section chiefs and section chiefs, the progress is a bit slow.
It would be better to be promoted to deputy section chief in the central town of Dong as soon as possible and take a step forward.
No matter what Pang Zhifeng is thinking, what he said makes sense. We should not dismiss his words because of the person who said them. We should still listen to him.
Li Xiuyuan raised his wine glass and looked at Pang Zhifeng and said, "Ren, your reminder is very good. I understand, but this matter is not subject to my will. The key decision-making power does not lie with me."
