Wang Dabao's hand holding the cigarette trembled. What is this?
Liu Haizhong from the forging workshop reported his thoughts and work to Section Chief Wang.
Comrade Haizhong really wants to improve himself!
"Come in."
Wang Dabao called out towards the door.
Upon seeing the visitor, Feng Biao, who hadn't even sat down in his chair yet, sat up again. "Section Chief Wang, I've finished reporting my matter. I'll report back to you if there are any further developments. You're busy, so I'll be leaving now."
"Okay, go ahead."
Feng Biao and Liu Haizhong, who had just entered, came face to face. Liu Haizhong hurriedly greeted him, "Hey, Captain Feng, hello."
"Hello, Mr. Liu. Section Chief Wang is waiting for you. Go quickly."
Although Liu Haizhong was a seventh-grade worker, Feng Biao didn't know him at all. However, Liu Haizhong was eager to curry favor with him, and he was even looking for Wang Dabao, so Feng Biao had no choice but to be enthusiastic.
Wang Dabao was sitting in the reception area when he saw Liu Haizhong walk in with a smile, and then he gently closed the door behind him.
"Section Chief Wang, your office is really big. Was that Deputy Captain Feng from the security team who just went out? I usually don't dare to talk to him, but I didn't expect him to be so enthusiastic today."
Liu Haizhong chuckled, took out two sheets of paper from his pocket, and respectfully handed them over with both hands. "Section Chief Wang, after your ideological education yesterday, I thought about it a lot at home and benefited greatly. I wrote these two pages of self-criticism overnight. Please take a look."
Wang Dabao took it and saw that it was probably four or five thousand words long.
"Old Liu, I can tell you really put your heart into it."
Wang Dabao glanced at the self-criticism and then placed it on the coffee table. "There are no outsiders here, relax and sit down quickly. It would be strange if you were so reserved with our relationship."
"Yes, yes, Section Chief Wang, you're right."
Liu Haizhong's chubby face was beaming with joy; happiness had come too quickly.
After sitting down, Liu Haizhong wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, placed his hands on his knees, and was momentarily speechless, having forgotten all the words he had prepared.
"By the way, Section Chief Wang, when I came over, they were saying in the workshop that Jia Dongxu had been caught cheating on his promotion assessment?"
Liu Haizhong seemed to have thought of a topic and hurriedly said, "I heard that it also implicated Lao Yi, who was arrested and taken to the security department as well."
Wang Dabao nodded: "I only found out about this from Lao Feng's report. Sigh, it's really embarrassing for me. I don't even dare to tell people that I'm from our compound."
“That’s right, Section Chief Wang, you’ve only just taken office, and Jia Dongxu and Lao Yi have already pulled this stunt. Isn’t this just smearing your reputation?” Liu Haizhong said indignantly.
"Old Liu, as the section chief, I can't just take the lead in breaking the security section's rules, can I?"
Wang Dabao sighed, his face full of helplessness, "But then again, we live in the same compound, and we're bound to run into each other all the time. I'm really in a difficult position!"
“It’s all Jia Dongxu’s fault, that bastard. You don’t need to pity him, Section Chief Wang.” Liu Haizhong put on a righteous look. “You’ve just taken office, and your reputation is very important.”
Wang Dabao got up and poured Liu Haizhong a cup of tea: "Old Liu, I'm so glad you understand my difficulties!"
"It is my honor to be able to help Section Chief Wang solve his problems."
Liu Haizhong quickly bent down and stood up to take the teacup with both hands. After putting down the teacup, he picked up the self-criticism again. "Section Chief Wang, let me read it to you so you don't have to strain your eyes to read it again. Please feel free to point out any shortcomings and criticize me."
"Oh, no need. Lao Liu, your thinking is still very correct. I was a bit too critical of you yesterday. But after thinking about it, I realized you have a lot of room for improvement. I'll save this letter of self-criticism for when I have time to review it."
Wang Dabao quickly stopped Liu Haizhong from having any ideas and changed the subject, "Old Liu, have you been having any difficulties at work lately?"
Liu Haizhong performed very bravely last night. Even after being kicked in the groin, his fighting spirit remained undiminished. Wang Dabao decided to give him some extra fodder depending on the situation, so that he could run even harder in the future.
"Section Chief Wang, I really do have something I'd like to ask you for a favor."
Liu Haizhong rubbed his hands sheepishly, "Last night, the security team raided the residential compound and arrested my apprentice for gambling. Confiscating the gambling money is the right thing to do, but I'll still get a disciplinary action. Next month is the blacksmith's promotion assessment, and with this disciplinary action, my qualification for the promotion assessment will be canceled. What do you think..."
"Old Liu, you're a much more qualified master than Yi Zhonghai. You really take care of your apprentices when they're in trouble."
Wang Dabao pondered for a moment, "Okay, I'll talk to the security team in a bit, but I can't guarantee it will work out."
Liu Haizhong wasn't stupid. As soon as he heard Wang Dabao say that, he knew that the matter was probably settled: "Section Chief Wang, thank you so much. How about this, come to my place for dinner tonight. I'll have your wife cook a couple of good dishes."
Before Wang Dabao could agree, Liu Haizhong, as if afraid he would refuse, quickly got up and walked towards the door, saying, "Then it's settled, Section Chief Wang. It'll be time to get off work soon, so I'll go back and plan what groceries to buy tonight."
Wang Dabao was a little confused. You haven't even told me your apprentice's name yet!
After Liu Haizhong left, Wang Dabao was about to go to the propaganda department to deal with Xu Damao when Section Chief Hu arrived.
"Zhao Zhongyi, and several security guards who are close to him, have already been reassigned. If you think Feng Biao is alright, let him take his place."
Section Chief Hu entered the room without any ceremony, poured himself a cup of tea, and sat down before saying directly, "Also, Deputy Factory Director Li would like to have dinner with you. You can decide the time."
"Sure."
Wang Dabao pondered for a moment and nodded, "Let's wait a few days. We just beat up someone's dog, so it wouldn't be appropriate to drink their wine right away!"
"Hey, hey, hey!" Section Chief Hu crossed his legs and pointed at Wang Dabao. "What do you mean by 'us'? It's you, not me."
