The weather has changed.
Middle-level cadres who received the notice came to the upstairs office in twos and threes. They were all unclear about what kind of meeting it was, because Zou Gang, who was responsible for the notification, did not explain. Moreover, what made them puzzled was that the person responsible for the notification was not Zhao Ren Shun, the director of this office.
Several mid-level cadres saw Zhao Renshun sitting there with a gloomy face, holding a book, but he seemed absent-minded and didn't know what had happened either.
Always low-key Zou Gang, today is unusually enthusiastic, inviting everyone to sit down and offering cigarettes.
Everyone in their hearts thought: "What's wrong with this guy, is there something good?"
So someone jokingly asked him what good news he had, but Zou Gang said there was nothing, serving everyone is a must. His words were insincere, and the crowd didn't believe him either.
It wasn't long before everyone knew what was going on.
In the conference room, listening to Huang Song introducing the new division of labor of the party group on the rostrum, everyone initially thought it was their own ears that were ringing.
"According to the Party Group meeting, the division of labor for the Bureau's Party Group has been adjusted as follows. Director Han Dong: presides over the overall work, is in charge of the Bureau Office, Branch and Personnel."
"Deputy Secretary of the Party Group and Deputy Director Huang Song: assist the director in his work, be in charge of the Legal System Department, Trade Union, and Statistics Culture Construction; assist the branch in its work."
"Deputy Director Ge Wengu: Assists the director in his work, is in charge of Comprehensive Statistics Division, Statistical Division 1 and Statistical Division 2."
Huang Song, in accordance with Han Dong's request, was introducing the division of labor among the party group members to the middle-level cadres present at the meeting. He knew this was another way for Han Dong to undermine his prestige, but he could only grit his teeth and bear it. One misstep would lead to a series of mistakes. If he hadn't been greedy for benefits and had kept his hands clean, or if he had prepared the materials earlier, he wouldn't have ended up in this passive situation today.
"He must learn from this lesson later." Huang Song thought to himself.
The new division of labor in the party group, Han Dong personally took control of the office, party branch and personnel rights, Ge Wenguang was also responsible for three departments, Huang Song's power was compressed to the greatest extent, only responsible for the law and regulations department and trade union that had no real power.
"What's going on?" The crowd was shocked, looking at the calm and composed Han Dong sitting on the chairman's platform, suddenly feeling that this young director was unfathomable.
After Huang Song introduced the division of labor in the party group, he also talked about the division of labor in the office. Zhao Renshun's power was greatly compressed and basically became a miscellaneous worker; while Zou Gang's work was also clarified through the party group meeting, which is a collective decision.
Now everyone in the middle level understands what's going on, and without realizing it, the situation in the organization has changed.
After the meeting, Han Dong's office became lively.
Middle-level cadres who came to report to Han Dong at this time all lined up in a queue.
They were not queuing outside Han Dong's office, but waiting inside the office staring at the door opposite, and rushing over as soon as someone came out.
Zou Gang, who was originally not in the public eye, has now become an object of flattery for everyone. After all, when it comes to settling accounts later on, they will need to go through Zou Gang's signature first.
"It's really damn reality." Zhao Renshun silently looked at the crowd, secretly scolding in his heart. Seeing the occasional sympathetic glances from the crowd, his mood became unbearable.
It's just that such a result is already the best. If things really get out of hand, it won't be as simple as adjusting the division of labor.
The office of Deputy Director Ge Wengu, who was originally like a puppet, also had someone to report on their work, which made him very happy and felt that his decision was so correct.
"Damn it, don't fall into my hands!" Huang Song gritted his teeth and muttered to himself.
His office was between Han Dong and Ge Wenguos, those middle-level cadres who had finished reporting to Han Dong would pass by his door, all pretending not to see him, walking quickly and directly to Ge Wenguos office.
Before this, those mid-level cadres would often look for Huang Song to report on their work without any reason.
Such an obvious change made some of them angry and ashamed, and their resentment towards Han Dong was also transferred to them one by one.
The middle-level cadres who had finished their work reports went back one after another, and the upstairs became quiet again.
Huang Song's face was iron-green as he sat in the office, his eyes fiercely staring at the door, as if he wanted to kill anyone who passed by.
"Let's get it over with." After a while, Huang Song stood up and came to Han Dong's office.
"Huang Ju has arrived, please sit down." Han Dong smiled and said, looking at Huang Song who was hanging his head in despair. In his heart, he didn't have too much excitement, this was just the beginning, later there would be even more struggles. The situation in Fuyi County was so complicated, and the opponents he would meet later might not leave him any handles to grab like Huang Song did.
Huang Song calmed down and said: "Director Han, regarding financial matters, I'd like to report to you..."
Han Dongdao said: "Alright, Director Huang, those few items that should be withdrawn will be withdrawn. As for the others, let's just forget about them."
Although Han Dong didn't want to push too hard, the money that should be returned still had to be returned; otherwise, those expense reports would leave hidden dangers and might also implicate himself.
"Alright then, I'll get it done this afternoon." Huang Song also let out a sigh of relief. This way of handling things was the best. He might as well consider it a lesson bought with his own money.
At noon, Huang Song borrowed some money from others to make up the amount he needed to return. In the afternoon when he went to work, he called Zhao Ren Shun into his office and put a stack of money on the table, saying: "Take this money back, and bring me those few receipts."
He wanted to keep those few receipts as a warning, to remind himself to be careful at all times.
"Huang, some of the money should be mine." Zhao Renshun said, although he was tricked this time and ended up in a sorry state, but Huang Song's timely intervention made Zhao Renshun even more determined to follow him. "Director Huang, I brought 3,000 yuan with me, you can take back the excess amount."
"Alright, alright..." Huang Song patted Zhao Renshun's shoulder with satisfaction, saying a few more "goods", and then said: "I didn't misjudge you, go ahead and do it."
When Zhao Renshun went to handle the refund procedure with the money, Huang Song picked up the phone and called Wang Jinggui, briefly telling him what had happened at the statistics bureau. He said: "Secretary Wang, Han Dong is intentionally targeting me. Which unit leader doesn't have a pager? He just won't let go of this, and he even moved me to an idle position. Secretary Wang, he's doing this because of you..."
"Alright, I know. If you're fine with it, can he bully you? Just take this as a lesson." Wang Jingui said calmly.
He hung up the phone, and Wang Jingui's originally dark face turned even darker, muttering to himself: "Han Dong..."
