A few days later, Sun Zhengguo was unaware that his report had been transferred from the Northwest Base back to a certain office.
The director of the general office was overjoyed to see the signature on the report and immediately submitted it to his superiors.
The leader mentioned above is a kind old man who has dedicated his life to the country and its people, working tirelessly to the utmost.
When he saw the report, he did not hesitate to trust the experts' judgment and immediately issued his instructions.
He then proceeded according to plan, providing full cooperation when necessary, and signed his name after the approval document.
With the leader's endorsement, Sun Zhengguo's age and qualifications are no longer an issue.
Upon returning to his office, the director of the General Office immediately summoned the communications officer and instructed him to deliver the report bearing the highest directive to the Ministry of Machinery so that a set of regulations could be finalized as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, in the office of the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Metallurgy, Vice Minister Bai, who had just returned from an inspection yesterday, was also looking at a letter.
This letter was left by Professor Wu before he left. It roughly means that the blueprints for modifying the hot rolling mill have been completed and can be handed over to Sun Zhengguo to be in charge of the modification task.
At the same time, the letter also troubled Vice Minister Bai to ask him to take care of his student.
After reading the letter, Vice Minister Bai shook his head and smiled, thinking that Professor Wu was being redundant. He didn't need to tell him; he would definitely take good care of a talent like Sun Zhengguo.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. Since Sun Zhengguo joined the company, he has been working with Professor Wu, and the two have not met yet.
So, Vice Minister Bai made an internal call and summoned Secretary Hu.
"Boss, you wanted to see me."
Upon entering the room, Secretary Hu asked respectfully in a low voice.
"Secretary Hu, I need to see Sun Zhengguo. Please inform him."
Upon hearing the leader's request, Secretary Hu was immediately at a loss. He had already learned of Sun Zhengguo's resignation early this morning, but before he could report it, the leader asked about it first.
"What's wrong? I asked you to go and inform them. Is there any difficulty?"
Seeing that Secretary Hu was standing there without moving, Vice Minister Bai questioned him.
"No, no, boss, Sun Zhengguo has been gone for almost twenty days. I really don't know where to go to notify him?"
Secretary Hu answered cautiously, afraid that Vice Minister Bai might have taken his anger out on the wrong person.
"What? Resigned? Why would a perfectly normal person resign? Can anyone tell me why?"
Sure enough, when Vice Minister Bai heard the news, even his voice changed, and he was on the verge of exploding with anger.
Seeing this situation, Secretary Hu could only report what he had heard truthfully.
"I heard that Sun Zhengguo was disobedient to his superiors and did not want to complete the tasks assigned by his superiors. In the end, he resigned on his own."
"What utter nonsense! You actually believe this kind of childish talk?"
Hearing his boss swear and say even more offensive things, Secretary Hu didn't dare to say anything.
"Go and fetch Huang Guangquan for me. I want to hear from him how Sun Zhengguo exactly disobeyed orders and what tasks he assigned him."
Upon hearing about this task, Secretary Hu felt as if he had been granted a pardon and dashed out of his office to find Section Chief Huang.
A short while later, Secretary Hu brought Section Chief Huang over and then quickly left the office.
"Vice Minister Bai, I heard you were looking for me?"
Although Section Chief Huang knew why Deputy Minister Bai wanted to see him, he still tried to remain calm and said...
Deputy Minister Bai slowly raised his head, staring at Section Chief Huang with unfriendly eyes.
"Huang Guangquan, tell me, why did Sun Zhengguo resign? If you dare to spout nonsense, you should understand the consequences."
Seeing the piercing gaze of Deputy Minister Bai, Section Chief Huang became frightened and felt a pang of regret for his impulsive actions.
If I had known that Vice Minister Bai would be so protective of his own, I shouldn't have made things difficult for Sun Zhengguo in the first place.
However, what's done is done, and there's no use regretting it now. We should focus on getting through this difficult time first.
“Vice Minister Bai, Sun Zhengguo’s resignation has nothing to do with me. I arranged for him to go to Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill to check the machines. Was that wrong?”
Vice Minister Bai did not speak, but gestured for him to continue.
“But Sun Zhengguo, relying on his connections, refused to go. In the end, he even asked me for a long leave of absence. How could I possibly agree to that? So he chose to resign. Is that my fault?”
Section Chief Huang was clever; he didn't mention being sent to the Hongqi Steel Plant, but instead told a lie. Anyway, there were only the two of them in the office at the time, and no one could testify.
After hearing Section Chief Huang's description, Vice Minister Bai really didn't know what to say.
But Vice Minister Bai wasn't stupid. This was only Huang Guangquan's side of the story. To find out the truth, the only way was to bring both sides together for a confrontation.
"Alright, I don't care what your reasons are. Now go and find him for me. I want to ask him directly. If what you say is true, I will definitely punish him severely. If you are lying, even the King of Heaven can't save you."
Upon hearing Vice Minister Bai's words, Section Chief Huang broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, Sun Zhengguo had already gone to the Ministry of Machinery, which gave him a reason to shirk his responsibility.
“Vice Minister Bai, don’t you know? Sun Zhengguo just resigned and then quickly joined the Ministry of Machinery, and even became a deputy section chief. This was clearly premeditated. He thought we weren’t offering him enough positions. Why are you still looking for him?”
"What?"
Vice Minister Bai felt a chill run down his spine. He never expected that his trip to the south would result in his home being raided.
Regardless of the reason, now that the person has joined the Ministry of Machinery, given Vice Minister Li's personality, he certainly won't let him go.
"Huang Guangquan, I will verify this matter. If I find out that you were behind this, you should know the consequences. You can go back now!"
Upon hearing this, Section Chief Huang felt no joy whatsoever; it seemed this matter was far from over.
After leaving his office, Section Chief Huang went to Assistant Qian's office and truthfully reported the situation, hoping that his superiors could help him get through this difficult time.
"Are you stupid! You shouldn't have lied. Being sent to Hongqi Steel Plant only shows that you have a narrow mind and doesn't mean anything. At worst, you'll get a reprimand, but if it's found out that you lied to your superiors, do you know the consequences?"
"Boss, I didn't think of that at the time, but don't worry, there were only the two of us in the office at the time. As long as I don't admit it, no one can prove that I lied."
"Hmm! I hope so!"
Assistant Qian said calmly.
However, in his heart, he had already sentenced Section Chief Huang to death.
This guy is hopeless; once his crimes are exposed, he definitely won't lift a finger.
After all, it's his turn to compete for the vice minister position, and he doesn't want his efforts to go to waste over such a trivial matter.
Section Chief Huang doesn't know?
Assistant Qian had already given up on him, and what he didn't know was that Vice Minister Bai had already boarded a special car and headed to the Ministry of Machinery.
What consequences await him? We shall wait and see!
