After getting Xu Damao's assurance, Liu Haizhong felt a little relieved and returned home happily.
"How is it? What did Xu Damao say?" asked the second aunt with concern.
Liu Haizhong nodded and said, "It's okay. Xu Damao has already sent it over. From what he said, it seems that Director Huang is quite satisfied!"
"That's fine!" Second Aunt nodded when she heard this.
Liu Haizhong was able to put his mind at ease for the time being, but the next day he confirmed that Xu Damao's gift had been delivered.
The next morning, when Liu Haizhong was instructing his apprentice, Huang Tianming came over.
"Come on, come on, everyone, come and take a look!"
Huang Tianming stood next to Liu Haizhong, looked at Liu Haizhong who was working, and suddenly called out loudly.
Liu Haizhong was also startled and subconsciously stopped what he was doing.
However, Huang Tianming patted Liu Haizhong and said, "Keep working. Don't stop."
Liu Haizhong couldn't figure out the situation and could only obediently follow Huang Tianming's instructions and continue working. Huang Tianming's shout had already alarmed the people around in the workshop.
"Come, come, come and take a look." Huang Tianming continued when he saw that the workers around him had noticed this side.
"Look at what Team Leader Liu does. You should learn from him and pay more attention to these jobs! If all the workers in our workshop were like Team Leader Liu, I would have less worries!"
Huang Tianming called people over for only one purpose, which was to praise Liu Haizhong in public.
Sure enough, Liu Haizhong was delighted when he heard Huang Tianming's praise, and said with a smile: "No, no, this is what I should do!"
Huang Tianming praised Liu Haizhong very seriously and waited until the others left.
"Team Leader Liu has been performing very well recently. Keep it up. I think you still have a chance!" Huang Tianming deliberately said this to Liu Haizhong without any context.
Hearing Director Huang say this, Liu Haizhong immediately became excited and assured excitedly: "Leader, don't worry, I will do my best!"
Director Huang laughed when he heard Liu Haizhong's assurance, patted Liu Haizhong on the shoulder and said, "Not bad, not bad, your performance has been seen above, so don't worry!"
After saying this, Huang Tianming went to do other things. The reason he came here to praise Liu Haizhong in public was not for any other reason but because Xu Damao sent him a gift yesterday.
After Huang Tianming left, Liu Haizhong was so happy that he became very excited.
"Oh, it seems that Xu Damao is sometimes reliable, otherwise Director Huang would not have come to praise me today!" Liu Haizhong muttered to himself.
In the next few days, Liu Haizhong realized that the gift he gave to Huang Tianming was not in vain.
Every day Huang Tianming would take some time out to praise Liu Haizhong.
However, after a few days, there was still no news about Liu Haizhong's meeting with the deputy director of the workshop, and he began to feel anxious.
"Director Huang, Director Huang, um...I want to ask, how is the matter of the deputy director of our workshop going?"
Liu Haizhong couldn't help but interrupt Director Huang who was about to get off work and asked him in a low voice.
Huang Tianming saw that Liu Haizhong came to inquire about this matter, and said to Liu Haizhong with a smile: "It's Team Leader Liu, you don't have to worry about this matter, I have already reported everyone in our workshop, including you!"
When Liu Haizhong heard Director Huang announce his name, he asked in surprise, "Then...then...can I be the candidate?"
Huang Tianming shook his head and said, "I don't know if I can get the job. Who knows who the factory leaders will choose? It's not something I can decide!"
"But you don't have to worry about this matter. I think the result will come out soon!" Huang Tianming said to Liu Haizhong.
When Liu Haizhong heard Huang Tianming say this, he could only nod and say, "Okay, then I can only wait now, right?"
Huang Tianming thought for a moment and said, "You can't just wait. If you have someone, you can try your best!"
"I understand. Thank you, Director Huang!"
Although Liu Haizhong did not get what he wanted to hear from Director Huang, he knew that this was the only way now, so he thanked him and left to go home.
After returning home, Liu Haizhong began to get anxious. After all, from what Director Huang said, the deputy director's position would be decided in the next two days.
Liu Haizhong was so angry that he slapped Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu twice each, and only then did he feel a little better.
But he admitted defeat, and the two children who were beaten black and blue could only come out to ask Lin Tian to check their wounds.
Liu Haizhong's anxiety was in vain. He was anxious for two days. One day when Liu Haizhong was working, Huang Tianming came out of the workshop.
After coming out, everyone saw a man in his 30s standing next to Huang Tianming, and the two were talking.
After seeing everyone in the workshop come out, the two stopped talking.
When Liu Haizhong saw this scene, he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. Could this person be the new deputy director of the workshop?
"Okay, most everyone is here. I want to tell you something!" Huang Tianming said seriously.
"Everyone knows that Lao Wu in our workshop has retired and will not come to work starting today. So his position cannot be left vacant, so after research within the factory, it has been decided that Li Chaoqun next to me will serve as the deputy director of our workshop and take over Lao Wu's position and job!" Huang Tianming said, pointing at Li Chaoqun next to him.
"Pa pa pa!" As Huang Tianming finished speaking, sparse applause broke out.
When Liu Haizhong heard half of it, he knew that his career was in jeopardy and his face turned very ugly.
During the entire meeting, Liu Haizhong didn’t know when it ended. He just felt his head was buzzing.
Liu Haizhong didn't notice it until everyone else had left.
Until Huang Tianming came over, patted Liu Haizhong's shoulder, sighed and said: "Hey, Lao Liu, it's not that I don't want to help you with this matter, it's really that the new director Li has a strong back!"
"But don't feel bad. I will think of you if something good happens in the workshop in the future!" Huang Tianming made this promise to Liu Haizhong and then went back to the workshop, leaving Liu Haizhong alone standing in the sun.
