This morning the yard was unusually quiet; when I went to the front yard, I didn't even see Yan Bugui.
Wang Dabao thought to himself, "Maybe he went to the water station to queue up and hasn't come back yet."
After picking up his bicycle and leaving the courtyard, Wang Dabao rode to the steel rolling mill.
Upon arriving at the factory gate, Zheng Jun greeted him as usual. This time, Wang Dabao didn't stay in the duty room but went directly to his own rest room in the security department's small building.
When I went upstairs, I saw that the door to Section Chief Hu's place across the street was still locked.
Afterwards, he took out two cans of malted milk powder and two packs of White Rabbit milk candy from the space warehouse, put them in his work clothes, and placed them on the coffee table to wait for Section Chief Hu's arrival.
Within the time it takes to smoke a cigarette, Wang Dabao heard the sound of a lock being opened across the hall, so he grabbed his work clothes and went to investigate.
When Section Chief Hu opened the package, wow, there was malted milk powder, and two packets of milk candy to take back to his grandson. His old face immediately lit up with joy.
"There are still a few packs of good cigarettes at home, but my sister-in-law keeps a close eye on them and won't let me smoke them. When you get home, I'll have her find them all for you."
“Okay, just let me know if you need anything else, and I’ll bring it over for you.” Wang Dabao sat down on the sofa and stretched his legs out onto the coffee table.
Section Chief Hu casually tossed him a cigarette, "Sit down properly. You've only been away from the team for a short time, why are you always so unruly?"
Wang Dabao was startled. Perhaps because his consciousness was too strong after he transmigrated, he often forgot that he was once a soldier.
Section Chief Hu sat down opposite Wang Dabao and went over the things that needed to be done and paid attention to before the New Year, which can be summarized as fire prevention, theft prevention, and accident prevention!
Afterwards, the two changed into their work clothes and went to the large conference hall in the government building, where a major conference was to be held that day.
This is a quarterly summary meeting, and with the Chinese New Year just over ten days away, we'll take this opportunity to summarize the year and look forward to the coming year.
When Wang Dabao and Section Chief Hu arrived, there were already no fewer than twenty or thirty people sitting in the conference hall.
The heads and deputy heads of all departments and workshops in the factory were present.
Many people greeted the two with smiles, and Wang Dabao could only respond with a smile in return.
People call him Wang Ke, and all he can say is that they look thinner, fatter, and more energetic than last time, and whether there's some happy occasion at home, since he doesn't know their names or even their surnames.
At that time, it wasn't customary to put nameplates on the table during meetings.
The security section was located at the front, next to the factory director, deputy factory director, and Section Chief Hu. Li Huaide was next to Wang Dabao, who was a deputy secretary with no real power.
This deputy secretary was in his fifties. People tend to look older these days, and his hair was already mostly white. However, he spoke with great energy.
As soon as Wang Dabao sat down, the man started chatting with him non-stop.
The key point is that Wang Dabao felt bad about ignoring this person, since the other person knew his deeds like the back of his hand.
From the moment Wang Dabao entered the security department and nearly shot the man surnamed Zhao, to the moment he escorted top-secret materials and killed nine enemy agents with eight shots, he knew all the details. The way he looked at Wang Dabao was like that of a fanboy.
Wang Dabao, a fanboy in his fifties, was in a daze.
The two chatted until the secretary spoke, which gave Wang Dabao a chance to catch his breath. This caused several people around to look at the deputy secretary with hostility, including Li Huaide.
He had originally planned to exchange a few words with Wang Dabao and have a drink together in the next couple of days, but he got up and walked past Wang Dabao twice without managing to get a word in edgewise.
Li Huaide had worked with Section Chief Hu for many years and knew that Section Chief Hu was extremely meticulous about official matters, to the point of being unyielding. Now that he was about to retire, Li Huaide was more than happy to see him go.
Ever since Wang Dabao joined the security department, he had been trying to build a good relationship with him, but after sending a message to have a meal together, he never heard from him again.
Judging from his previous actions, Wang Dabao is also a hardliner, and his methods are extremely ruthless.
The two had met at previous meetings and exchanged a few words. Wang Dabao always had a smiling face, which made Li Huaide a little unsure of what was going on.
After careful consideration, Li Huaide decided to swallow his pride and invite them again, since the security department was a real headache.
There was no opportunity before the meeting; I can only wait until after the meeting to see.
The Party Secretary spoke for an hour straight, and Wang Dabao only jotted down two words in his notebook: rambling and empty rhetoric!
Next was Director Yang, whose words were quite in line with the actual production situation in the factory.
Then came Li Huaide and Section Chief Hu. After a round of seven or eight people talking, it was past lunchtime. Deputy positions like Wang Dabao could only listen while their stomachs growled.
The conference ended at 12:30 pm.
Everyone packed up their pens and notebooks and left the meeting hall one after another.
Wang Dabao and Section Chief Hu had just arrived at the entrance of the hall when Li Huaide called out to them, "Section Chief Hu, Section Chief Wang, do you have time? If so, come sit in my office for a while."
The factory director has already spoken, so how can he say no?
Wang Dabao took a deep breath, ate something to fill his stomach, and then went to Li Huaide's office.
Upon entering, Wang Dabao and Section Chief Hu were stunned.
On the coffee table in the office's reception area, there were four dishes, rice, and steamed buns.
It turned out that Li Huaide had already instructed his secretary to take care of things during the meeting.
"Come on, sit down. It's getting late. Let's eat and chat." Li Huaide quickly invited the two to sit down and made arrangements for them to eat first, and then they could talk.
The dishes are all from the small canteen, and they smell completely different from those in the big canteen. The seasonings used in this small kitchen are just better.
Li Huaide is capable of handling things.
Wang Dabao didn't stand on ceremony and sat down to eat.
Section Chief Hu glared at him, signaling him to tone it down.
Wang Dabao mumbled, "I'm starving, I can't worry about anything else, you guys hurry up too."
Li Huaide didn't mind and started eating along with them.
