P.S.: I had a burst of inspiration today, so I wrote an extra chapter and am posting it here, hehe.
"Alright, alright. We can catch up later. Here's your transfer order, Comrade Wang Shouren. You've been transferred to the Manufacturing Section 1 of the Equipment Department of the First Ministry of Machine Building as a staff member. Congratulations!"
"After that, your salary will be handled by the department. You'll also be transferred from a technical position to an administrative position. But don't worry, you'll still need to do technical work. Most leaders here do it this way. You can find out more by talking to Xu Jiaguo. Oh, and there's another issue with your salary. You'll be transferred from a level 14 technician to an administrative level 21, which is also a level 3 clerk."
hiss……
That's quite generous.
Wang Shouren never expected that this high-ranking leader would be so generous in his dealings.
To put it simply, a recent college graduate, after being officially hired, is only at level 22, while he is currently at level 21, a level higher than a recent graduate. He only graduated from vocational school a year ago.
This means you've skipped several levels.
"Your days are going to be a bit tough from now on."
"Secretary Li, rest assured, I guarantee the mission will be accomplished!"
They've given us such good treatment, how can we not work hard?
“Alright, then you go with Jiaguo and do a good job. Jiaguo, take Shouren with you, show him around, introduce him to everyone, and come back to me when you’re done.”
"Yes, mission accomplished." Xu Jiaguo immediately stood at attention and saluted.
"Go ahead." Li Weiguo waved his hand, then seemed to remember something: "Wait a minute."
The two turned back.
“Shouren, I’ve heard about what happened to you at school. I heard you’re a tech fanatic. You can’t just be passionate about technology; you also need to maintain a positive attitude towards the Party.”
Wang Shouren was stunned for a moment, then realized that he had not joined the Party!
These days, there's a huge difference between being a party member and not being one.
Li Weiguo's reaction to Wang Shouren was expected; he was a smart man who had understood this long ago.
"Alright, get back to work. Come over here this week when you have some free time and fix up your application. You've come all this way and you're not even a Party member. That's unacceptable."
After saying this, Xu Jiaguo took Wang Shouren out.
The two were old classmates, so there weren't many complicated details.
"It has to be you again, Shouren." Xu Jiaguo sighed. "The treatment you received upon arrival was quite something. To be honest, I was a little apprehensive when I first came, since I was the one who took your place. I never expected that you would break through the ranks in less than a year."
“You should know me; I’m not very interested in these kinds of things.” Wang Shouren smiled. “I’ve always done anything that can improve my skills.”
“Indeed.” Back in the academy, Wang Shouren was known as a tech fanatic.
"Hey, are you still in contact with Xu Weiwei?" Xu Jiaguo asked, turning around.
“Xu Weiwei? No.” Wang Shouren shook his head.
With a face that's only slightly less attractive than the readers', he was incredibly popular at the academy. Unfortunately, he wasn't interested in those little brats; they were sixteen or seventeen, skinny, and there was really nothing in common between them.
"Tsk, just a few months ago someone came to me asking about your whereabouts."
"No, you haven't been exposed, have you?" Wang Shouren was horrified. This guy could even come here to inquire? How much power must this girl have behind her? This is no joke; we have to distance ourselves completely.
"Don't worry, I know you didn't say anything. By the way, let me take you to the personnel department first."
"The important matter comes first."
Xu Jiaguo led him to the personnel department. The personnel department here was less crowded than the steel mill; a few people sat in a small room, and there wasn't even a separate room for them. Everyone was busy with their own tasks.
Since someone brought him over, and they heard that the higher-ups were interested in this young man, no one made things difficult for him.
They confirmed his employment immediately and explained, "Your salary will still be paid from there, but it will be transferred from the department. Also, we can't control whether the company you're affiliated with provides employee benefits. In most cases, they will. You'll also receive departmental benefits. Remember to come over at the end of the year."
In this era, year-end bonuses are something many people look forward to.
Places like steel rolling mills are likely to distribute items that are not usually available for purchase, such as pork or fabric.
The HR staff made a point of mentioning it, which is already quite a gesture of respect.
Finally, they gave him a note.
After exchanging pleasantries, Xu Jiaguo led him to the logistics department to collect his belongings.
There weren't many things: a Zhongshan suit, a fountain pen, and a notebook.
Everything else is secondary; the Zhongshan suit is truly handsome.
To be honest, a classic is a classic.
"Isn't it beautiful? I was so excited when I first received this outfit," Xu Jiaguo said with a chuckle.
"It really looks good."
Wang Shouren nodded in satisfaction, then turned to Xu Jiaguo and said, "By the way, Secretary Li asked you to go to his place. I've finished my business here, so you should go quickly. Let's set a time to get together properly later."
"Okay, it's settled then." Xu Jiaguo was still preoccupied with Secretary Li's matter. Although he was happy that Wang Shouren was coming, he was still somewhat uneasy about work. Seeing Wang Shouren say this, he didn't stand on ceremony with his brother.
He said a few words and then left.
Back in Secretary Li's office, I knocked on the door.
A voice inside said, "Please come in."
He took a deep breath, straightened his clothes, and went inside.
When Li Weiguo saw Xu Jiaguo walk in, he glanced at him and immediately noticed that Xu had probably straightened his clothes slightly at the door. Seeing Xu Jiaguo's slightly nervous expression, Li Weiguo suddenly understood what had been puzzling him.
“You’ve come to Jiaguo, please have a seat.” Li Weiguo gave a kind look.
But this did not seem to reassure Xu Jiaguo. Instead, he obediently sat on the stool, with only a third of his buttocks touching the stool, his back straight.
"Ha, don't be so nervous. I just want to ask about some things related to Wang Shouren."
"Leader, Shou... oh no, Comrade Wang Shouren is a very good person. He has consistently ranked first in our college."
"Hey, I don't need this information. I just want your opinion on this person."
Xu Jiaguo was stunned for a moment, somewhat confused.
"Just say whatever comes to mind."
"It's just...it's just..." Xu Jiaguo didn't know what to say for a moment, but looking at Li Weiguo's expectant eyes, he couldn't remain silent. Suddenly, a sentence he had said during his argument with Wang Shouren flashed through his mind...
