President Wang took a sip of tea and nodded, saying, "Mm, there is such a thing."

Director Zheng chuckled, "It's like this. Xiao Han told me today that she went to handle it too, but the people in your hospital's personnel office told her that she hadn't been in the hospital for the six-month probation period and wouldn't handle the regularization procedures. Look, this girl needs to eat and wear, buy cosmetics, and so on. If she's not regularized, the salary is indeed a bit low and not enough to spend. I wonder if you can look into it and handle it, let Xiao Han get regularized as soon as possible."

There was indeed such a problem, but President Wang himself, as the hospital president, rarely asked about such small personnel matters and ignored the relationship between Han Xue and Director Zheng, so he didn't take it to heart. Now that Director Zheng specially invited him to dinner to talk about this, President Wang definitely had no reason not to handle it. So he smiled and agreed indifferently, "Since Director Zheng has said it, then it's definitely no problem. It's a small matter. I'll say hello to the personnel office when I go to the hospital this afternoon. Xiao Han, you just go to the personnel office this afternoon, and let them handle the regularization procedures for you. But speaking of this matter, I have to say a few more words to you, Xiao Han. You said you were introduced to work in the hospital by Director Zheng. You could have just told me about such a small matter, and it would definitely be no problem. It's not very good to always trouble Director Zheng."

Han Xue secretly glanced at the glowing Director Zheng and nodded repeatedly at President Wang's "careful guidance."

"Then thank you, Old Wang, for troubling you to go through the back door again." Director Zheng laughed, picked up the wine glass, took a sip of wine, put down the glass, smacked his lips, and sighed as if he had something on his mind.

President Wang asked him, "Director Zheng, what's wrong? Why do you seem to have something on your mind? What can stump you?"

"Sigh! Old Wang, you don't know. It's better for you in the hospital, you can make your own decisions. Although I am the Construction Commission Director, I can't make all the decisions for big and small matters." Director Zheng sighed and said.

President Wang smiled apologetically, "Director Zheng, how do you say that?"

Director Zheng took a puff of his cigarette and said, "This year, the province has included the Baxin District in the urban development planning outline. Now the higher-ups want us to specially configure a Deputy Director of the Planning Division in charge of urban planning for the Baxin District. Now this candidate is hard to determine."

President Wang chuckled, "Director Zheng, what's hard to determine about this? Isn't your daughter Ruru in your unit? Isn't it just a matter of your word?"

Having had the previous lesson of almost losing his official hat due to going to the Party School last time, Director Zheng didn't dare to act rashly this time and just set the candidate casually. "Old Wang, you still don't understand our government-affiliated units. The water in the Construction Commission is very deep. You say that whoever comes to work in the Construction Commission, big or small, who doesn't have some connections behind them? Now the province has allocated such a good personnel configuration, and there are many people eyeing this vacancy. This really stumped me."

President Wang knew that in such public institutions as the Construction Commission, it looked calm on the surface, but as soon as there was a good opportunity, there would be fighting and scheming, far beyond what the hospital could compare to. But he knew that there was a principle in the Chinese officialdom: father and son soldiers. If the father is a high official, how can he leave his children behind? Besides, Director Zheng had already arranged for his daughter to work in the Construction Commission, and she was in the Planning Division. There was a configuration of deputy director in the Planning Division that was vacant, so naturally, it had to be Director Zheng's daughter. So he said, "Director Zheng, I don't understand your unit either, but I think since your daughter, Director Zheng, is working in the Planning Division, this is a once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity. You wouldn't give it to others, would you? If I were you, I would directly promote Ruru to be the Deputy Director. I'll say a truthful word, Director Zheng, don't be angry."

"Old Wang, you say." Director Zheng chuckled.

President Wang took a sip of tea and continued, "Director Zheng, we are one family and don't speak two families' words. I'll say a truthful word, the technical content of the work in your unit is definitely not as good as in our hospital. So you don't have to worry about promoting Ruru and her not being able to handle it. Besides, with you there, if there's anything, you're supporting her from behind, so there will definitely be no problem."

Director Zheng thought carefully for a while and felt that what President Wang said was quite right. Since he had inserted his daughter into the Construction Commission, he wanted to take advantage of the two years he could still be in office and the power in his hands to find some connections and promote his daughter. This opportunity couldn't be said to be once in a hundred years, but at least once in fifty years. If it weren't for the province including the Baxin District in the urban development planning outline, and the organization and personnel having special indicators for the Construction Commission's personnel configuration, how could a deputy director be set casually?

After thinking about it, anyway, this news was only learned by him from Director Zhu of the Personnel Department a few days ago. The specific notice hadn't been received yet. Hearing Director Zhu say that the specific news might come down at the beginning of the year, all units were busy holding various summary meetings and making various summary materials at the end of the year, and had no time to take care of other things. So Director Zheng didn't want to think about this for the time being, changed the topic, chuckled, and said, "Old Wang, then please trouble yourself with Xiao Han's regularization problem."
