After receiving approval from the factory manager, preparations for the event officially began. According to the plan, everyone in the publicity department had a different task.
Even apprentices are now treated like full-time employees. A perfect event is the result of everyone's hard work, not just good planning.
Jiang Xile didn't expect Zhu Guanying to make such a mistake at this time, thinking that as long as he messed up the event and made Jiang Xile look bad, he would have a chance to rise to power.
Little did she know, her every move was being monitored.
"Knock knock knock"
There was a knock on Jiang Xile's office door; there was less than an hour left before she had to leave work.
I just assigned the tasks today, could there be a problem already?
"Please come in!"
As Jiang Xile's voice faded, a girl walked in.
"Deputy Section Chief Jiang!"
"Ma Dongmei? Is there something you need?"
This was the first time Ma Dongmei had ever done something like tattling, and she was a little nervous, but for the sake of getting a permanent position, she had no choice but to go all out.
"Deputy...Deputy Section Chief..."
Seeing that the other person seemed a little nervous, Jiang Xile smiled and reassured them:
"Don't rush, tell me what's going on slowly, sit down first!"
Looking at Jiang Xile's smiling face, which seemed to inexplicably inspire trust, Ma Dongmei took a deep breath and then spoke:
"Here's the thing, Deputy Section Chief, when I went to the restroom just now, I heard Sister Zhu talking to someone at the turn of the stairs."
That person seems to be from the logistics department. Sister Zhu is in charge of the venue setup for this event. She...she...”
"What? What did you hear? You can tell me the truth. Don't be nervous. I won't let a third person know about this."
"She...this lady said she wanted the other party to help cut the bamboo pole in two-thirds so that if the event went wrong, they could drag you off the stage."
Ma Dongmei closed her eyes and told Jiang Xile everything she had heard. Jiang Xile understood. It seemed that Zhu Guanying wouldn't give up until he was completely defeated.
I have tolerated her provocations time and time again, but I never expected that she would now focus her attention on planning events for the factory.
The bamboo poles were used on the platform to fix and hang the red silk. It wasn't noticeable at the time that two-thirds of it had been cut off.
However, if the load on it exceeds its original weight, it will immediately break and the bamboo pole will fall down.
Not only would the actors on stage be affected, but the leaders and VIPs sitting in the first two rows would also be impacted, making this a major performance accident.
As the person in charge of the event, she certainly cannot escape responsibility, but can the others in the publicity department be spared?
If things go wrong, everyone in their propaganda department, from the department head down to the apprentices, will be held accountable. In the end, they'll either get a demerit and be demoted, or even be fired.
This is assuming there are no casualties. If there were casualties, it would be even more difficult to say, and they could all be sent to labor camps.
Seeing Jiang Xile's sullen face, Ma Dongmei felt even more uneasy.
"Deputy Section Chief Jiang...I...I..."
"Sorry, I was distracted. I understand about this. Don't worry, I'll handle it properly. I appreciate your kindness. Get back to work and go!"
Ma Dongmei nodded blankly, then walked out of the office somewhat stiffly. She wanted to ask if she could be promoted to a permanent position, but she didn't know how to bring it up.
"Oh! How could I be so stupid!"
Slapping her head in frustration, Ma Dongmei returned to the office. Everyone was preparing to leave work, and no one paid any attention to her return.
Having just tattled on someone, Ma Dongmei felt a little guilty. She secretly glanced at Zhu Guanying, and seeing that Zhu Guanying wasn't paying attention to her, she returned to her seat.
"Dongmei, where were you just now!"
Du Meili, an apprentice who joined the company at the same time as her, came over.
Du Meili vaguely thought she saw Ma Dongmei come out of Deputy Section Chief Jiang's office, but she couldn't see clearly, so she thought she would come over to test the waters.
"Nothing! I went to the toilet!"
"You went to the restroom? But I think I saw you come out of the deputy section chief's office!"
"Ah...you mean this...I wasn't quite sure about the specific area I was assigned to, so I asked about it on my way back. Luckily, the deputy section chief was easygoing and didn't blame me!"
"Oh, I see! I thought you and the deputy section chief knew each other before!"
"How could that be? Don't forget, we came in at the same time. If I had known the deputy section chief earlier, would I still be an apprentice here?"
Not only did she not get the answer she wanted, but she was also subtly criticized, which made Du Meili quite unhappy.
"That's true, but so what if I'm an apprentice? I got in as an apprentice based on my own hard work!"
"Yes, yes, no one said you didn't rely on your own abilities. I was just saying it offhand!"
Just as Du Meili was about to say something, Jiang Xile walked in.
"Li Xiuli and Ma Dongmei, both of you come to my office!"
"yes!"
"yes!"
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the two walked into Jiang Xile's office.
"Bang..."
Once the gate was closed, it cut off all prying eyes.
"Hey, what do you think the deputy section chief wants with those two? We've already assigned tasks! Is there some new assignment?"
"Even if there's a new assignment, it shouldn't be called Ma Dongmei. She's an apprentice just like us!"
"Who knows? Maybe he's just caught the eye of the deputy section chief!"
"Du Meili, do you know something? Tell us quickly, don't keep it to yourself!"
"Don't talk nonsense. What could I possibly know? I was just saying. You're overthinking it!"
Yu Xiaoyu pursed her lips. Don't think she didn't hear Du Meili and Ma Dongmei talking. Although she didn't hear it clearly, she knew it must be related to the deputy section chief.
"If you don't want to tell us, then forget it. We'll ask Dongmei when she gets back!"
Du Meili rolled her eyes. If there was really something good, she didn't believe Ma Dongmei would tell them.
Don't be fooled by their seemingly friendly and joking interactions; they all know deep down that the four of them are rivals.
There are four apprentices, but only one official position is available. Everyone wants to become an official employee as soon as possible, so they secretly try their best to get promoted!
In the office, Ma Dongmei followed behind Li Xiuli, feeling somewhat uneasy.
She had only been gone for less than ten minutes, why was she called back by the deputy section chief? Could it be...?
