Xu Damao was showing off his skills in front of Guan Yu, and he talked about many measures to serve the masses in front of the secretary, which surprised Wu Dingbo. He did not expect that a small projectionist would have so many thoughts.
"Da Mao, you're amazing. You're so young and you have such profound insights. Although some of your ideas are not feasible now, it shows that you have done your research on the work."
I understand why you're here today. Nothing's settled yet, so I can't say anything to you. But one thing is certain, just like I told you at dinner last time: work hard and trust the organization.
After chatting for a while, Xu Damao saw that it was almost time to go home.
"Da Mao, these local specialties of yours are quite good, I'll keep them. Here, I also have a bottle of good wine, take it back and drink it, I know you can hold your liquor well."
Before leaving, Wu Dingbo took out a bottle of wine.
"Then I must savor it carefully. The wine from the Secretary's family must be excellent."
This bottle of wine is worth much more than Xu Damao's local specialties, but at least Xu Damao's intention was there, and the leader accepted it in this way, so Xu Damao didn't care about anything else.
```````````````````
Because Xu Damao had done some preliminary work, the personnel department's hastily prepared and perfunctory plan was not approved by the leadership. Ye Jiaqiang, the head of the personnel department, received guidance from Deputy Secretary Fang Shanwei, and after returning to his office, he thought for a moment before going to the publicity department.
"Old Gao, hurry up and bring out your treasured tea. I've been taking care of you guys every day, you should at least show some appreciation."
When Ye Jiaqiang arrived at Gao Jin's office, he immediately began to interrogate him.
"Hehe, Section Chief Ye is here. Then I'll have the whole department come out and line up to welcome you. It's not easy for you, the head of the department, to come here. We can't let them miss the opportunity to curry favor with you."
Gao Jin was criticizing Ye Jiaqiang. This time, Gao Jin was quite dissatisfied with the personnel department for not consulting him and instead coming up with a flawed plan. If Xu Damao hadn't known about it beforehand and submitted a report, they might have been fooled like this.
"Haha, Lao Gao, you're joking. I've been a bit busy lately and haven't been visiting you as often, so you're making fun of me like this."
Gao Jin and Ye Jiaqiang have been friends for nearly 20 years. They used to be friends, then both became section chiefs, and now they are rivals for the position of deputy director. The feelings between them are beyond the comprehension of outsiders.
"The factory is planning to increase the number of projection team members, so I came here to ask for your opinion and see what you, Section Chief Gao, have to say," Ye Jiaqiang said.
Seeing that Ye Jiaqiang was serious, Gao Jin stopped ignoring him and had someone call Xu Damao over.
"Da Mao, Section Chief Ye is here to talk about expanding your film screening group. What's your opinion? Section Chief Ye, Xu Da Mao's opinion is our propaganda department's opinion," Gao Jin said, seeing Ye Jiaqiang looking over.
When Xu Damao arrived and saw that both of them were looking at him, he wasn't embarrassed. His supervisor had clearly stated that he would support him, so what was there to be afraid of?
"According to the factory leadership, our projection team is to serve a wider area, which means we need more people."
My idea is to recruit at least 6 new people, plus the 2 people from our original projection team, for a total of 8 people. We will divide them into 4 groups: three to serve the rural communities outside the factory, and one group to serve our factory workers inside the factory.
"Regarding these eight people, I'm thinking of promoting one of them to deputy team leader to assist me in management."
"By then, our factory will have more than three film projection teams outside, and there will be film projection teams from our steel rolling mill throughout the suburbs of Beijing."
By the way, the projection team has subgroups, but the name is a bit awkward. How about we change our projection team to a projection division to avoid duplication, since the levels are the same anyway?
The so-called selection of deputy group leaders was actually a ploy to prepare for Chen Changqing's rise and to impress Gao Jin. As for changing the name of the film projection team, it was purely due to Xu Damao's vanity. In later generations, many county-level tax offices, industrial and commercial offices, and police stations were changed into sub-bureaus, with the directors becoming bureau chiefs, which sounded much more prestigious.
Sure enough, Gao Jin nodded repeatedly when he heard Xu Damao's opinion.
"By the way, Lao Ye, Da Mao has made such a great contribution, is there any reward from the factory? At least get him a cadre status, right?"
Gao Jin said it seemingly unintentionally.
"Old Gao, you make it sound so simple. I can't decide a cadre's status; that's up to the leadership. But Da Mao, I have high hopes for you. Sooner or later, the leadership will consider you."
"But Da Mao, isn't hiring six new people too many? If you're forming four teams, wouldn't four people be enough? I remember you were always working alone before."
Ye Jiaqiang is not so easily fooled.
"Section Chief Ye, things are different now than before. Back then, I was traveling to the surrounding rural areas, which weren't far away. I was doing all that myself, showing the films and carrying the equipment. I was so exhausted I couldn't take it anymore."
It's also dangerous. Once, I was almost robbed while walking on the street. Now we need to go even further and to more remote areas; going alone is absolutely out of the question.
Xu Damao defended himself. Ye Jiaqiang listened and nodded, but no one knew how much he actually took in. This time, they were only being pressured by their superiors; otherwise, when would their personnel department ever need to ask other departments for their opinions?
And so, the personnel department's plan continued to be developed, and the factory leaders were so busy every day that it seemed no one remembered the matter. The publicity department was concerned, but the personnel department replied that the leaders were still considering it, and Gao Jin couldn't really ask who hadn't made up their mind yet.
Until this day, factory director Qin Zhijian received a phone call from the head of the ministry.
