Chapter 181: The High Standard of the New Section Chief!

~8 min read 1,465 words

There are five people in Secretariat Section Two.

It has one section chief, one deputy section chief, and three staff members.

Not many days after Jiang Jing took office, the original section chief "voluntarily" applied for a transfer.

Recently, the work in the section has been presided over by the Deputy Section Chief, Wen Rong.

The other three staff members are Zhan Shiqi, Fu Yajun, and Chen Guo, who just graduated and joined the office.

For Wen Rong, she is in a rather awkward position.

She was only one step away from being section chief, but due to the change in leadership, that distance has become as far as the ends of the earth.

Most people harbor rejection and resentment toward their predecessors.

Although Wen Rong was not the predecessor's trusted Chief Secretary, she is destined not to be considered by Jiang Jing as a personal Chief Secretary.

Tang Ye sat in front of his desk.

Just as he opened his computer, the office door was knocked upon.

He replied, "Please come in."

Wen Rong walked in holding a document.

"Section Chief Tang, this is the speech draft Mayor Jiang needs for next week. Although Mayor Jiang is accustomed to speaking without a script, the draft still needs to be prepared thoroughly. Please help me review it."

Tang Ye took the draft, unscrewed the cap of his fountain pen, and began marking the pages.

"In half an hour, I will have it revised for you."

Wen Rong was slightly stunned, muttering to herself that this Tang Ye really knew how to put on airs.

In the past, she would communicate such drafts with Lin Ru, and now that a superior had appeared out of thin air, she felt somewhat unhappy.

She had written this draft after pulling several all-nighters in a row.

Now, no matter how excellent the material was, it seemed to be making a wedding dress for Tang Ye, so she inevitably felt a bit lost.

Half an hour later, Tang Ye found Wen Rong with the revised draft, handed it over, and instructed: "Print out a copy according to the revised content."

After Tang Ye left, Zhan Shiqi leaned over to Wen Rong and said with a somewhat flippant tone, "Section Chief Wen, can you let us see the 'high standard' of our new section chief?"

Before handing the draft to Tang Ye, Wen Rong had organized an internal discussion; it was a crystallization of collective wisdom, so now that Tang Ye had made revisions, everyone was both puzzled and curious.

Wen Rong had already roughly looked over the revised draft and said with a serious expression: "Section Chief Tang's standard is indeed high. He is a master's graduate from Qiongjin University and was the Top Scorer in the Provincial Examination; one cannot help but admire his command of language."

Zhan Shiqi took the draft, feeling full of disdain.

After a quick browse, he found that the draft had been revised from beginning to end, the prose was very fluent, and no flaws could be picked out.

"Section Chief Tang must have privately studied Mayor Jiang's speaking style; the word choices are all ones Mayor Jiang habitually uses."

"The mode of expression is easy to understand, yet the content has both depth and a sense of vision and perspective."

Everyone sighed with emotion.

Wen Rong reorganized the draft according to the revised content.

Just as she finished, Tang Ye walked in as if he had timed it perfectly.

"Section Chief Wen, bring the draft and come with me to see Secretary-General Lin Ru."

Wen Rong hurriedly printed a copy and followed Tang Ye to knock on Lin Ru's office door.

Not long after, Wen Rong returned to the office with a light step.

Seeing Wen Rong's relaxed expression, Zhan Shiqi asked: "How was it, did the draft pass?"

Wen Rong replied with a smile: "Secretary-General Lin Ru took a look and then took it to Mayor Jiang. This draft was written exceptionally well; Mayor Jiang only added two data points."

Zhan Shiqi understood Wen Rong's current mood.

In the Municipal Government Office, no matter whose draft it was, it rarely passed on the first try.

Especially Mayor Jiang's drafts, which often had to be revised repeatedly many times.

But this time it passed on the first try, and everyone suddenly felt much more relaxed.

"I had already prepared myself to pull an all-nighter tonight."

"It seems that in the future, we won't have to kill so many brain cells when writing materials."

After receiving Jiang Jing's call, Tang Ye immediately headed over and raised his hand to knock on the door.

Jiang Jing's expression was grave as she said: "I have already communicated with Lin Ru. Next, you will coordinate with the Supervision Office to properly handle the aftermath of the Liuhe Residential District matter. Additionally, I intend to personally visit the district for a follow-up to verify the final results."

Tang Ye nodded and replied: "I will coordinate with the Supervision Office immediately."

Jiang Jing nodded slightly.

Compared to before, there was one small change in the schedule Tang Ye had drawn up: he had cleared an hour of swimming time for Jiang Jing every day.

Jiang Jing noticed this detail and thought to herself that Tang Ye was indeed very attentive.

Returning to the office.

Tang Ye dialed the phone number of Xiao Guangxiong, the director of the Municipal Government Supervision Office.

The two agreed to head to Meijing Group in the afternoon.

Du Xiaofeng and Xie An arrived at Meijing Group.

The scene before them shocked them greatly.

Du Xiaofeng stepped forward to ask: "Comrade, may I ask what is happening at Meijing Group?"

The staff member asked in return: "Who are you?"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Xie An did not reveal his true identity and said vaguely: "We are... business partners."

The staff member responded: "We are handling a case. If you are not employees of Meijing Group, please leave as soon as possible."

Xie An and Du Xiaofeng were startled.

Judging from the tone of these people, if they had identified themselves as Meijing Group staff, they likely would have been taken away for investigation.

"Old Xie, how did Meijing Group end up in trouble after just one night?" Du Xiaofeng was quite frightened.

Xie An was also uneasy, "Sigh, there must be a major problem. No wonder your brother insisted that you return the items."

"I can't return them even if I want to now." Du Xiaofeng was on the verge of a breakdown, "Will this affect my brother?"

"Your brother didn't take anything from them." Xie An was also full of regret at this moment.

Du Xiaofeng caught sight of an acquaintance.

Director Guan from the Liuhe Street Office was standing at the entrance of the parking lot, looking around.

Just as he was planning to go up and ask, a black sedan slowly pulled up nearby.

The car door opened, and Tang Ye and Xiao Guangxiong stepped out of the car.

Director Guan greeted them with a face full of smiles.

Du Xiaofeng recognized Tang Ye at a glance.

As for Tang Ye, he was fully focused on talking with Director Guan and did not notice Du Xiaofeng in the distance.

Du Xiaofeng couldn't help but mutter to himself, "That person seems to be Xi Xi's boyfriend, Tang Ye. Why would he appear here?"

Xie An stroked his chin and analyzed: "No wonder your brother was furious yesterday; he probably learned from Tang Ye that Meijing Group would run into trouble. Tang Ye might be able to help. Why don't you ask Xi Xi and see how this matter should be handled?"

Du Xiaofeng felt troubled, but the situation was urgent; after hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and dialed Du Xi's number.

As soon as the call connected, Du Xiaofeng hurriedly said: "Xi Xi, there is something I would like to ask for your help with."

"What is it? I can't get away right now."

Du Xi had always been somewhat disappointed in Du Xiaofeng, especially regarding the issue of how he treated Tang Ye; Du Xiaofeng acted too mercenary.

Fearing that Du Xi would hang up the phone, Du Xiaofeng hurriedly got straight to the point.

"This matter is of vital importance. If it isn't handled well, I might have to go to jail, and it might even implicate Dad. I took Cai Weilin to see our dad and accepted some things from him; today I wanted to return them, but I discovered their company is being investigated."

Du Xi was speechless for a moment and said coldly: "You were the one who accepted the items; it has nothing to do with my dad. Solve it yourself!"
