After the top leader returned to his office.
So Li Weiguo summoned the director of the Department of Basic Mechanical Equipment.
After a while, Director Yuan arrived.
"Big Boss, what task do you need me for?" Director Yuan was considered an old man, almost 60 years old, and always cheerful.
"Old Yuan, it's like this, do you remember the comrade I got from the steel rolling mill who was attached to you before?"
"I vaguely remember him? What happened to him?" Director Yuan pondered for a moment, recalling him somewhat, but not much. After all, he was just a clerk, with many people under him, and he never overstepped his authority.
"He did a great service for our department. Oh, you know about that spy case from a while back, right?"
"The spy case is about him?!" Director Yuan immediately knew who it was—the technician whose story was becoming increasingly bizarre.
"Yes, he not only made a great contribution in this area, but also made significant breakthroughs in technology. He was praised by the higher-ups, and the reason we called you here is to ask you to help him improve his treatment."
"This..." Director Yuan glanced at the senior leader and asked, "What position should we promote him to?"
"Section Chief will suffice."
Director Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a bit of a headache.
You're just a section chief, and you're even taking your breath when you speak.
After agreeing, he went out and asked Li Weiguo about the young man. After all, he had already caught the eye of the higher-ups, so it wouldn't hurt to learn more about him.
After learning more about it, I felt much calmer.
He wasn't a nepotism hire; he worked his way up through hard work and earned the appreciation of his superiors. Needless to say, the more people like him under his command, the better. I'll make arrangements immediately upon returning.
This arrangement resulted in a large number of people coming to inquire about the news.
After all, for someone like Director Yuan, a section chief is nothing special. But the division chiefs under him are still quite sensitive about the position of section chief.
After inquiring about it, I found out.
Wow, here comes the alpha wolf.
Everyone knows that a capable guy has come to the department.
This time, people weren't as resistant. In this day and age, if you have talent, you'll be respected everywhere.
When the security guards from the ministry arrived at the compound, Uncle San was a little nervous, thinking Wang Shouren had done something wrong. After inquiring, he learned it wasn't a serious matter. But the bigger problem was: which ministry's security guards were these? The Ministry of Industry! When did Wang Shouren go to the Ministry of Industry?!
It wouldn't have mattered if I hadn't asked around, but once I did, hey! This kid has become a leader.
Logically speaking, not many people should know this news. However, Uncle San has a wide circle of friends, and most of the people in the surrounding courtyards work at the steel rolling mill. If anything happens at the steel rolling mill, Uncle San is the first to know.
Wang Shouren had no idea that his third uncle was so curious. He figured it was about time his reward came.
These past two days, he's been staying home playing with his wife. After giving Qin Jingru some instructions, he went out.
They arrived at Li Weiguo's office.
Li Weiguo chuckled and nudged him: "Goodness, you've really made a triple jump. Alright, just wait and see. As for Xu Jiaguo, I won't take you with me. Go find your superior yourself, you know who it is, right?"
"Of course I know," Wang Shouren smiled. In truth, he really didn't know, but for something like this, he could just ask Xu Jiaguo directly.
"Okay, that's good. Also, there might be other things I need you to do later, like spreading the word about my experience. You don't need to stay here anymore. Later, you can teach that kid Xu Jiaguo a bit more."
A short while later, Xu Jiaguo also arrived.
He hadn't thought that far ahead, and he hadn't even considered things like promotion. After all, he'd only been there for a little over a year. As for contributions, he didn't feel he'd made much; he'd just been following Wang Shouren around. It was tiring, but he was truly learning a lot.
"Then you can go, I won't keep you."
Xu Jiaguo was still a little confused. After following Wang Shouren outside, he asked, "Wh...what's going on?"
"I'll promote you."
"ha?"
Director Yuan had been waiting for them for a long time.
Upon seeing the two of them enter, he immediately flashed a smile that met societal expectations: "You must be Comrade Wang Shouren and Comrade Xu Jiaguo. I am the Director of the Department of Basic Machinery and Equipment, surnamed Yuan. You can call me Lao Yuan or Director Yuan."
That's what they say, but if you really call him Lao Yuan, then you're being ignorant.
"Hello, Director Yuan!" the two greeted him respectfully.
"Alright, let's get straight to business then." Director Yuan took out an appointment letter from his drawer and began to read:
"Comrade Wang Shouren! In recognition of your outstanding contributions to the promotion of the Five-Star Management System and the optimization of the production line, our company has decided to appoint you as the head of the Manufacturing Section 1 of the Mechanical Manufacturing Department, with the待遇 of Level 16 (Level 16 is equivalent to the待遇 of a deputy director or section chief, with a monthly salary of 110.5 yuan). Congratulations, Comrade Wang!"
Wang Shouren was fine, but Xu Jiaguo couldn't even keep his facial expressions under control.
He looked so excited, wow!
He went straight to section chief. How many levels did he jump? Level four or level five?
Wang Shouren glanced at the guy next to him who could only grin foolishly, scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly, and gave an even more standard foolish grin: "Thank you, Director Yuan, I will definitely work harder!"
Director Yuan, being his long-time superior, knew what he was thinking and said with a smile, "I've looked at your resume, and it's very good. However, you'll be busy from now on. There's no need to thank me; this is your own achievement. You meet the promotion criteria, and I haven't given you any preferential treatment. However, you'll still have to return to the steel rolling mill on temporary assignment. You should know that, right?"
For Director Yuan, having one more section chief wouldn't make much difference.
This is just the compensation, but this place can't afford another section chief. There's not enough room.
Fortunately, the top leader had already mentioned this point.
"As I've said, I also feel that I still have many shortcomings and need to learn more at the steel rolling mill." Wang Shouren couldn't wait to leave this place and stay at the steel rolling mill.
"Then, Comrade Xu Jiaguo."
"Yes!" Xu Jiaguo immediately stood up straight, looking very expectant.
In the end, Xu Jiaguo also got promoted two levels, reaching level 23, which is the level of a fifth-grade clerk, one level lower than when Wang Shouren transferred over. Even so, he grinned like a fool. These days, getting promoted isn't such a simple matter. Happily, he followed Wang Shouren out of the office. They still needed to go to one more place, the personnel department, to complete some formalities. Only then would the matter be considered finalized.
