Chapter 87 The Dust Settles



The two people looked at the factory director eagerly.

This move was too ruthless, and it immediately extinguished Zhang Mingyu's arrogance.

Zhang Lai Di panicked when he heard this. He gritted his teeth and ignored Zhang Jidi's dissuasion. He knelt before the factory director and begged with a sad face:

"Director, the R&D manager at your factory is my Mingyu's cousin's husband. There aren't many vacancies here, so why not recruit both of their children?"

The factory director and his group were stunned and immediately looked at the youngest guy next to them.

When Chen Wei saw Zhang Jidi, he wanted to say hello, but the scene was in such a mess that it was not convenient for him to go over. Now that he was called, he was confused for a moment.

He pointed at himself with wide eyes: "Huh? What cousin-in-law? I don't know this guy?"

He and Zhang Laidie lying on the ground stared at each other.

Chen Wei had indeed never seen this person. After all, his aunt Zhang Laidie only came to visit relatives during the Chinese New Year, and her visits were basically not in time with Xiang Meimei's.

But Zhang Laidie and Zhang Jidi sisters look a bit similar, and he feels familiar with them.

The two stood together again, and he didn't say that he didn't know the aunt, he just said that he didn't know Zhang Mingyu.

Zhang Jidi was so regretful that he shouldn't have gotten involved in this mess with his fifth sister Zhang Laidi! Now, he even dragged his son-in-law into this mess!

But something happened, and with so many people watching, she could only smile awkwardly and come out to smooth things over:

"Son-in-law, these are Meimei's fifth aunt and cousin. They don't come home often, so you haven't met them. I just want the director to follow the factory's rules and regulations. How can I let a personal matter affect official business?"

She wanted to slap herself twice at this moment, so that you could not save face and come here to meddle in other people's business!

The factory manager originally wanted to wield a stick to pass on a carrot, but he didn't expect that the stick would hit his own trusted and beloved general, and he could only cough twice.

He turned to look at Chen Wei.

Chen Wei looked at his mother-in-law in embarrassment, then looked at the many people at the scene staring at the melons with sharp eyes, and suddenly felt a headache.

What is this?

If he had said it quietly in the factory office without so many people watching, he could still have spoken up for this cousin he had never met, but how could he be partial to him in public?

The scene was silent for a while.

Finally, another leader came out to offer a way out. He advised with a serious face:

"Actually, Director, I think both of them are young talents. How can a few points really make a difference? If we don't admit them, we'll be missing out on such talented people. Why not expand the budget and hire them?"

"Yes, yes, Brother Guo is right. Our factory is efficient. We are so busy with orders that we can't handle them all. It's just one person, so we can still hire someone."

"This time, the recruitment office didn't think things through. It's not wrong for the young man to seek fairness. Since their total scores are the same, they'll be ranked equally. There's nothing wrong with hiring them to work in the factory."

The leaders were all smart people and agreed with each other with smiles.

They could see that Chen Wei wanted to speak, but he was embarrassed to help his relatives in public.

After all, in public, if you want to use favors, you will be despised.

But it didn't matter. After all, Chen Wei was highly valued by the factory director. This wasn't a big deal, just a job, so they would naturally help solve the problem.

The leaders are proficient in speaking skills and are first-class in the art of smoothing things over. After their words and guidance, everyone also thinks it is a good idea to recruit together.

After all, Chinese people value peace and harmony.

Moreover, when the factory director arrived, he immediately decided that there would be no re-examination. Everyone was uninterested and couldn't take advantage. Who would care whether these two people got the job or not?

If we don't recruit these two people, those who failed the exam won't be able to get in either. So what's the point of going through all the trouble?

The factory manager noticed Chen Wei's hesitation and knew his attitude in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face:

"Okay, it's true that the factory didn't think it through. There's something wrong with the rules that's caused trouble for the two guys. Xiao Zhang wants to retake the exam, right?"

Zhang Mingyu, who had just been frightened, lowered his voice: "Director... I, I just said nonsense, I will listen to you."

"Xiao Hu doesn't want to retake the exam, right?"

Hu Bing barely dared to breathe, only mumbling, "I don't want to retake the exam. We're tied for 40th place. Actually, I think it's okay to admit both of us."

He was frightened by the factory director's big stick.

After the factory manager asked the two of them, he knew they had stopped talking and turned to the people present and said:

"Retaking the exams is a waste of national resources, manpower, and material resources. Let's all take a vote. Should we all admit them together or not? Those who agree to admit them, raise your hands."

The people present didn't expect that there was something for them to do and hesitated for a moment.

The leader behind the factory director raised his right hand first to express his support for recruiting.

This action was so obvious that most of the onlookers raised their hands out of herd mentality.

The head of the recruitment office roughly counted and said, "Director, 70% of everyone here agrees to recruit people."

The factory manager nodded in satisfaction and said, "Okay, write Xiao Zhang's name on the recruitment list. Don't be careless next time. Remember to write that those with high operation scores are given priority."

Seeing that the matter was settled, the crowd finished eating the melons and slowly began to disperse.

Zhang Mingyu stood in front of the recruitment list and only felt relieved when he saw the recruitment office leader take out a pen from his chest pocket and write his name on the list.

The factory director and his leaders were about to go out for dinner when a big customer came to discuss cooperation, and they were about to go to a state-owned restaurant to entertain him.

Chen Wei said a few words to them and decided not to go this time, then ran to Zhang Jidi.

"Mom, my cousin got a job. Shouldn't my fifth aunt and cousin treat us to a nice meal?" Chen Wei stood next to Zhang Jidi with a smile on his face.

He acted as fiercely as a tiger and even danced in front of the factory director, almost affecting his son-in-law's future.

Zhang Jidi's face turned grim: "People who pass the exam based on their own abilities don't necessarily have to treat us to a meal!"

Who can't understand this weird tone?

The leader of the recruitment office thought he was deaf, and immediately put down his pen and walked away after writing.

Now there are only four people left: Zhang Jidi, Zhang Laidi, Zhang Mingyu and Chen Wei.

Their names were written on the job recruitment list, and there was no point in standing here any longer, so they all headed back home.

Zhang Laidi touched his nose and smiled awkwardly: "Oh, little sister, it's great that Mingyu got admitted. I will definitely treat you to this meal. I guarantee you will be satisfied."

She spoke nice words humbly and flattered Chen Wei.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows why the leaders immediately changed their stance and supported the recruitment after Chen Wei and Zhang Jidi said that the two families were relatives.

Zhang Lai Di is not stupid and can see through the twists and turns of the workplace.

On the way back home, he praised Chen Wei to the highest standards, as if he could control everything in the methane plant.

Zhang Jidi poured cold water on him with a gloomy face.

Her son-in-law is at most a supervisor with limited authority. Why would Zhang Laidie flatter him? Isn't it just to get Chen Wei to take care of Zhang Mingyu?

But none of his family members bothered Chen Wei, but the Zhang family had the nerve to come and hinder him!

If you dare to cause trouble, I will praise you for your courage. If you have the ability, don't let others clean up your mess. Who will be happy if you cause trouble and let others clean up the mess?

Chen Wei was not so flattered by a few nice words. He just said that the R&D department and the operations department could not help much.
