Chapter 415: What the hell, deputy director? The teachers and students were all shocked!

Songshan High School.

The students from Class 34 who came to attend the tenth anniversary reunion of their graduation gathered in groups of three or four to chat about their recent situation.

The relationship between people is very magical. Although we are all classmates, some students may only be familiar with other classmates during their time at school, and may not say more than ten sentences to each other, but they get along very well with some individual classmates and can talk about anything.

Therefore, the classmates who came to the party, after greeting each other, would give priority to chatting with the classmates they had played well with back then.

At this time, Zhu Chenglong was chatting with another good classmate, Li Huaqiang, about their respective recent situations.

Li Huaqiang asked: "Brother, where have you made your fortune these years?"

Zhu Chenglong laughed and said, "What kind of fortune did you make? I have been working in Shenzhen for the past few years. How about you? Where did you make your fortune?"

Li Huaqiang said: "After I graduated, I went to Beihai to live with my seventh uncle, where I helped him manage a brick factory and also got married and had children there."

Zhu Chenglong enviously said: "That's great, your seventh uncle's brick factory, you are the boss there, you are free, unlike me working in Shenzhen, working more than ten hours a day, sometimes even working overtime for thirteen or fourteen hours, although the salary is not low, but it is too unfree.

So this time I came back to attend the class reunion, and by the way I also quit my job, planning to go back to my hometown to develop. "

Li Huaqiang said, "It's good to go back to your hometown to develop. Working outside is not a long-term solution after all. You should be married, right?"

Zhu Chenglong said: "She got married a long time ago, and her child is already in elementary school. How old is your child?"

Li Huaqiang said: "Mine is not that big, I'm only in kindergarten."

Just as the students gathered in groups of three or four to chat about their recent situation, new classmates arrived from time to time.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly a classmate shouted, "The class monitor is here!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone who was chatting looked up in unison.

In Class 34, there are two influential figures. One is naturally Deng Yunheng, who was admitted to Peking University and is the most awesome one. The other is the class monitor Chen Wenfeng.

Now that the class monitor, this influential figure, has arrived, he naturally immediately attracted the attention of all the students.

"Homeroom teacher, classmates, I haven't seen you for ten years. I hope you are all doing well!"

When Chen Wenfeng arrived, he greeted the head teacher and classmates with a smile. He looked very stylish, and it was obvious that he had done well in recent years.

"Squad leader!"

The classmates also greeted him.

Li Hongjun also greeted with a smile on his face: "Chen Wenfeng, you are here!"

Chen Wenfeng asked: "Teacher, have you been in good health these years? I am really ashamed that I haven't come to see you for so many years!"

Li Hongjun smiled and said, "I'm in good health. I'm already very satisfied that you have this intention. It's only been a few years since you graduated from college. The most important thing at the moment is work. Doing your job well is better than anything else."

Chen Wenfeng exchanged a few pleasantries with the head teacher before glancing at the other students and asking, "Is classmate Deng Yunheng not here yet?"

“Not yet!”

"I don't know if Deng Yunheng will come to this class reunion."

"He will definitely come. This ten-year agreement was proposed by classmate Deng Yunheng. How could he not come?"

“…”

Li Hongjun smiled and said, "Don't worry, classmate Deng Yunheng will definitely come."

When the students were about to ask questions after hearing this, a large bus approached from afar and stopped in front of the school gate.

Then, Deng Yunheng got off the bus. This really was a case of speaking of the devil and he would appear.

"Class teacher, classmates, how are you?" Deng Yunheng greeted everyone with a smile.

If the arrival of squad leader Chen Wenfeng just now attracted everyone's attention, then the arrival of Deng Yunheng directly made the scene boil.

After all, this guy was a great guy who got into a top university like Peking University. In the past ten years, they have been bragging about this classmate Deng Yunheng to others. They always start by saying that a high school classmate of mine got into Peking University...

Therefore, when they saw Deng Yunheng coming, everyone couldn't help but come over to say hello.

After learning that Deng Yunheng had arrived, the former director of studies, vice-principal, and principal all rushed over.

After greeting each other, Liu Limei stood up and said, "Dear teachers and students, it's getting late now. It's a rare occasion for us to get together. I would like to invite you to have lunch at the restaurant. How about we chat while eating?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Wenfeng quickly replied, "It is indeed time for lunch, but Liu Limei, a female classmate, doesn't need you to pay for lunch. As the monitor of Class 34, I should pay for lunch. Liu Limei, please don't argue with me."

Liu Limei smiled and said, "Class monitor, women hold up half the sky. You can't underestimate us female classmates. I have the ability to treat everyone to a meal."

Chen Wenfeng said: "Classmate Liu Limei, how dare I look down on you female classmates, but today's meal should indeed be the responsibility of me as the class monitor."

Deng Yunheng said with a smile: "Classmate Liu Limei, and class monitor, don't argue with me. I have arranged everything. At noon, we will go to Songwang Market to have a bowl of rice noodles. It is the same restaurant where we had our farewell dinner ten years ago. This is called having a beginning and an end.

After we finish eating rice noodles, we will take this bus to Bobai. After arriving in Bobai, we will have dinner at the hotel first. In the evening, I will arrange for everyone to sing in the karaoke hall. I have also arranged the accommodation. In short, everyone just needs to follow me. "

Hearing this, Liu Limei and Chen Wenfeng couldn't help but look at each other and smiled bitterly. Their plan was just to treat the teachers and classmates to a meal and they hadn't thought about anything else. This arrangement was completely on a different level compared to Deng Yunheng's.

Li Hongjun knew Deng Yunheng's background well, so he agreed, "Okay, then we'll follow Deng Yunheng's arrangements."

The principal and others also agreed, and the students naturally had no objections.

So, a group of students walked to Songwang Market to eat rice noodles.

After Deng Yunheng arrived, a total of 36 graduates from Class 34 came.

The number of people attending the party was quite large, because there were only 42 graduates in Class 34, and only 6 students were absent from the party, which was quite rare.

After all, ten years have passed, and most of my classmates have married and had children and have their own families. Many of my classmates are not in their hometowns, but have gone to Guangdong to work, or have married far away.

It’s really not easy to rush back to attend the party now that it’s not a festival.

From this we can see that the graduates of Class 34 attach great importance to this class reunion.

Soon, everyone arrived at the noodle stall that had been in business for many years. Deng Yunheng asked the proprietress to cook a bowl of rice noodles for one dollar per person.

It is already the 1990s. The rice noodles that cost three or five cents a bowl ten years ago are no longer available. The starting price is a few cents now, and prices have increased significantly.

As bowl after bowl of rice noodles were served, the students couldn’t help but recall a scene from ten years ago when 42 students were eating noodles together. At that time, they were all in their prime and were full of expectations for leaving the campus and entering society.

Now, ten years have passed, and only we ourselves know how much we have changed.

Although a high school diploma was considered very good in the 1980s, it was very difficult to get a job in a public institution with a high school diploma unless you had connections. The students here either started their own small business, went out to work, or simply stayed at home to farm.

Everyone makes different choices, and their lives go in different directions.

After finishing a bowl of noodles, everyone was reluctant to leave the noodle stall.

What they are reluctant to part with is certainly not the middle-aged proprietress of the noodle stall, but their youth that they have no regrets about.

…

Twenty minutes later.

Everyone got on the bus to Bobai.

In the car, Li Hongjun clapped his hands and said with a smile on his face: "Dear classmates, we have gathered again after ten years. Everyone has changed a lot. Let's talk about your own situation. I will give you an example first.

After you graduated, I taught three more classes of students. However, out of these three classes combined, there were only two college graduates, which is far less than your class.

I am now valued by the leaders and have become the school's principal. My son is already in high school. His academic performance is so-so, and he is ranked among the top few in the class. He has no hope of getting into university, but he should have a chance to get into a junior college..."

Li Hongjun introduced his situation in a long and detailed manner, which drew rounds of applause.

"This is my situation. I'll leave it to you guys from now on."

"The head teacher has already set a good example for us, so I will start by giving you some ideas!"

Zhu Chenglong was the first to respond: "I got married the year after I graduated. I now have two children. The older one is in elementary school. I have been working in Shenzhen with my wife for the past few years. I just quit my job recently and plan to return to my hometown to develop. This is my situation."

After Zhu Chenglong finished speaking, the students began to applaud spontaneously.

Li Huaqiang, who was sitting next to him, continued, "I went to work in Beihai after graduation. I currently manage a brick factory. I also married a wife there and have two children. My children are now in kindergarten..."

"I went back home to farm after graduation, and I'm currently planting in my hometown..."

"After I graduated..."

Next, one student after another began to speak enthusiastically, and briefly described their recent situation.

Soon, most of the students had introduced themselves. Some were doing okay, while others were not doing so well. This depended on their families and personal choices.

Another classmate briefly described his or her situation, and Liu Limei smiled and continued, "I'll tell you about my situation, too. After graduation, I followed my relatives to Guangzhou to develop my career. By chance, I met and married my husband. Now I'm a mother of two children. I'm currently doing clothing business in Guangzhou. If you and your classmates come to Guangzhou in the future, remember to contact me. I'll definitely treat you all to a meal."

"Student Liu Limei, you really have become the boss lady!"

"It's not easy to do business in Guangzhou. Liu Limei, you've really made a fortune!"

"It seems that classmate Liu Limei married well. No wonder she said she would treat us all to a meal."

“…”

After listening to Liu Limei's brief introduction, all the students praised her.

In this era, it was a great achievement for rural people to marry into the county town. Now that Liu Limei married into a big city like Guangzhou, it was naturally enviable.

Liu Limei was indeed the best-married girl in the class. When she heard her classmates' praise, she was all smiles. Everyone is vain. Who doesn't want to show off in front of their former classmates? Now that she has done it, she is of course very happy.

Of course, we still have to be humble. Especially at this time, we need to be more humble. Liu Limei understands this.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

After Liu Limei briefly talked about her situation, two other classmates followed suit. At this point, out of the 36 classmates who came to attend the 10th anniversary reunion, only two influential figures in the class had not spoken yet.

Seeing this, Li Hongjun, the class teacher, called out his name and said, "Chen Wenfeng, tell me about your situation. I only know that you were assigned to work in Wuzhou after graduating from university, but I don't know which unit you were assigned to."

Chen Wenfeng smiled when he heard this, cleared his throat, and said, "After I graduated from university, I was assigned to work at the Agricultural Machinery Bureau of Cangwu County, Wuzhou. Then I was lucky enough to be appreciated by the county leaders. Not only did they marry their daughter to me, they also promoted me to be the director of the Agricultural Machinery Bureau. I can be considered to have met a noble person.

If you guys are in Wuzhou, please contact me. I can definitely help you arrange food and accommodation, among other things.”

When these words were spoken, all the students were surprised.

"Oh my god, he is worthy of being the squad leader. He is so awesome. The director of the Agricultural Machinery Bureau is a section-level cadre, which is equivalent to the secretary and mayor of our town. He is truly a big leader!"

"Amazing! As expected of a college student, he has already become a section-level leader after only graduating for a few years. He has a bright future ahead of him!"

"Squad leader, what level of leader is your father-in-law?"

"The squad leader is already a section-level leader. If his father-in-law can promote him, he must be one of the most powerful people in the county."

"Squad leader, if you become rich and powerful, please don't forget me!"

“Squad leader…”

All those present were high school graduates. Their knowledge was naturally incomparable to those illiterate people in the village. Most of the students were aware of the value of the director of the Agricultural Machinery Bureau and the section-level cadres. What's more, the class monitor's father-in-law was a powerful leader in the county. To them, such a person was really awesome.

Therefore, the students were amazed and praised the student.

After all, the relationship between classmates is one of the more solid social relationships. They are proud to have a classmate who is an official.

In fact, who knows, they may even need help from this old classmate in the future!

Even if you don't ask for anything, it's good to use it as a bragging point.

Not only classmates, but even the principal praised him: "Student Chen Wenfeng, you are really great. Our Songshan High School has gained a new leader. If you have the chance in the future, please come back to visit your alma mater more often."

After all, he is already a section-level cadre at such a young age, and he has the protection of his father-in-law who is a county leader. He is also a serious college student. As long as he does not make any mistakes, he will definitely be promoted to the department level in the future. Even the principal has to pay great attention to this level.

"I will definitely come back to my alma mater more often to see the principal and teachers."

After answering the principal's question, Chen Wenfeng smiled and said to the other students: "My father-in-law is the county magistrate of Cangwu County, at the department level."

Hearing this, the students naturally burst into praise again.

Compared with Chen Limei, the boss lady, Chen Wenfeng, the leader, undoubtedly has a higher status in the hearts of his classmates.

After the classmates had praised him enough, Liu Limei looked at Deng Yunheng and asked, "Student Deng Yunheng, it's your turn. You are a top student from Peking University and you have created history for our Songshan High School. Tell us about your life after graduation. I am so curious."

Upon hearing this, the other students all looked at Deng Yunheng. The class monitor had only been admitted to an ordinary university, but now he is a section-level cadre. Then, what level of cadre is Deng Yunheng, who was admitted to Peking University?

Not to mention other students, even Chen Wenfeng was extremely curious.

A big reason why he rushed back to attend this class reunion was for Deng Yunheng. He really wanted to know how Deng Yunheng, who had been so overwhelmed by the college entrance examination, was doing after graduation.

What level of cadre is he now? In the final analysis, he still has a bit of a reluctance to admit defeat.

After all, in the first semester of his freshman year, his grades were firmly at the top of the class, and he became the class monitor based on this performance.

As a result, Deng Yunheng came from behind and not only surpassed him successfully, but also made history by being admitted to Peking University, creating history for Songshan High School. That brilliance overshadowed him, a college student from an ordinary university.

Over the past ten years, Chen Wenfeng has been holding his breath, wanting to win back a game.

Fortunately, he was valued by his father-in-law and became the director of the Agricultural Machinery Bureau, a powerful cadre at the section level.

This also gave him some confidence to compare with Deng Yunheng. He didn't ask to surpass the other party in level, but to be on an equal footing with the other party. That would be his victory.

As for the other students, they didn't think so much. They only knew that the monitors who graduated from ordinary universities had become regular cadres. So, Deng Yunheng, who graduated from Peking University, should be better than the monitor, right? So, what level is he now? The students were full of expectations.

Li Hongjun smiled and said, "I know a lot about Deng Yunheng's situation. Let me tell you about it!"

Deng Yunheng just happened to not be very interested in this kind of "self-promotion" introduction. Since the head teacher was interested, he could save himself some trouble. He smiled and said, "Okay, then head teacher, please tell my classmates about my situation!"

Li Hongjun nodded and said with a slightly excited look: "After graduating from Peking University, Deng Yunheng went directly to work in a ministry. He started at the section level and was promoted to deputy director two years later. He was then transferred to work in Fujian. As of the beginning of last year, Deng Yunheng had become the county magistrate and a director-level cadre."

Hearing this, all the students were stunned!

Chen Wenfeng, in particular, could hardly believe his ears.

He was still thinking about competing with Deng Yunheng, but with the promotion of his father-in-law, he has only become a section chief. Deng Yunheng started as a section chief and became a director-level cadre at a rocket-like speed, on par with his father-in-law.

This... is simply unbelievable.

Although other students did not know as much about promotion in the system as Chen Wenfeng did, they also understood how big the difference was between the section chief level and the director level. There was simply a world of difference between the two and they could not be compared at all.

"Oh my god, Deng Yunheng, you are so awesome!"

"He's at the director level. Doesn't that mean he's at the same level as the squad leader's father-in-law?"

"Did I hear correctly? The starting point is a full-time section chief? Is this the quality of Peking University?"

"Oh my god, people who graduate from Peking University are different. They are already county magistrates in their twenties. If you tell others about this, it's simply terrifying."

“…”

When Li Hongjun mentioned Deng Yunheng's level last year, the whole audience was immediately excited.

Hearing the students exclaiming, Li Hongjun looked at Deng Yunheng with a flushed face and asked, "Deng Yunheng, I was talking about your position and rank at the beginning of last year. Has your position and rank changed in the past year?"

Although Deng Yunheng didn't want to pretend, since the head teacher had asked him, he didn't hide it and said truthfully: "I am now the head of the county-level city of Fuqing, and my rank has been raised to deputy director."

After these words were spoken, not only the classmates, but also Li Hongjun, the principal and others, all opened their eyes wide.

"Student Deng... Student Deng Yunheng, you... you have been promoted to deputy director?"

The principal was so excited that he was shaking all over and could barely speak clearly.

The vice-principal (former dean of studies) and Li Hongjun were not in much better condition either. They kept twitching as if they had epilepsy. This news was really too shocking.

That's a deputy director. They are just the leaders of an ordinary township high school. They have to be respectful in front of the section-level leaders in the township, let alone a deputy director. They have never come into contact with such a high-ranking official in their lives.

The most crucial thing is that Deng Yunheng has been promoted to deputy director just a few years after graduating from university. The principal and others dare not even imagine what level of leadership he will become in the future.

It was hard for all the school leaders not to be excited when they thought that such a high-ranking official actually came from their Songshan High School.

As for Chen Wenfeng, he was even more dumbfounded at this moment. He was the person who knew the system best among those present. It was because of this understanding that he knew how valuable the deputy director position of Deng Yunheng was. It was ridiculous that he still wanted to compete with Deng Yunheng after graduation. He was simply overestimating his own abilities to the extreme.

Compared with Deng Yunheng, the deputy director, his mere section chief rank is simply not worth mentioning.

At this moment, Chen Wenfeng was completely convinced! If the level difference between the two sides was not big, then he would definitely continue to compete with Deng Yunheng and try to win the other party once, but when the gap between the two sides was so big that he could never catch up, his mentality completely changed!

As people in later generations often say, when you have a net worth of one million or ten million, there may be many people around you who are jealous of you, but when you have a net worth of one billion or even tens of billions, the jealousy will disappear and only envy will be left.
