Chapter 26 Default
Official reception is different from private banquets. It does not provide cigarettes, alcohol and drinks, and it is impossible to buy cigarettes and wine out of your own pocket.
The dishes were served very quickly, and when the rice was served halfway through.
Everyone used tea instead of wine, and symbolically toasted each other for a few cups, and then started eating, which was similar to eating fast food.
Deputy Minister Ye didn't drink enough and didn't like socializing. Seeing that everyone was eating very quickly, he said that everyone was eating slowly, but he was very happy. Because for him, this supper was just like the afternoon symposium.
He accompanied everyone to eat and drink, and said goodbye to everyone politely. Let's make an appointment to meet again next time, which does not mean that the work has been completed. He took out his cell phone to check the time, and found that it was only 7:30, so he turned around and called Xu Xuesong who was about to go home, Chu Chanjuan and Gu Cheng, and asked the three of them to go upstairs with him for a small meeting.
Chu Chanjuan originally planned to go to the movie, but her best friend booked tickets online at noon. As a result, the leader asked her to work overtime. Not only did she lose the movie, but she also got her best friend's appointment and could only complain secretly.
Xu Xuesong knew in his heart that the leader was worried that busy with demolition would delay the normal work of the department. He wanted to quickly decide what could be determined in advance so as not to delay it if he didn't know when he was delayed.
As expected, as soon as he walked to the office door, Vice Minister Ye asked Chu Chanjuan to take the materials for those who returned from studying abroad.
"The president, vice president and director of the association must be elected. The candidates for the president, vice president and director should be recommended by the members. But you have also seen their situation today. Not only are they busier than the other, but they are not familiar with each other. If you want to recommend, you may develop your style and give in to each other." Deputy Minister Ye looked through the situation list while thinking about countermeasures: "The establishment of a association for overseas study abroad returnees can no longer be delayed, so I think we can only nominate."
"This is the best way to cut the mess with a quick knife." Xu Xuesong completely agreed.
Vice Minister Ye nodded and put down the materials and asked: "Chanjuan, according to the draft constitution of the association, there are more than 30 members, only one president, how many vice presidents and directors should be elected?"
Chu Chanjuan hurriedly reported: "According to the draft constitution, one president and two vice presidents can be established. However, a membership meeting must be held first, nine directors must be elected, and then the board of directors must be held to elect the president and two vice presidents from among the directors."
"Where is the Secretary-General?"
"The Secretary-General is appointed by the Council, and can be a member."
"Then let's determine the candidates for the director first."
...
The original intention of establishing this association was to unite overseas students who returned from studying abroad. After returning to China, international students who were admitted to civil servants and worked in party and government agencies were "people of their own". They were busy with work, had low income, and had neither the energy nor the financial resources to engage in friendship activities. Therefore, the candidates for directors naturally had to be the boss and the international students.
The boss is different from the boss. Some bosses are enthusiastic about charity and are willing to do things. Some bosses don’t like to show up in public. Some bosses come in the afternoon, but it can be seen that they have no concern about joining the association.
In short, whether it is the president, vice president, or director, you should try your best to find rich and thoughtful people!
After determining the general direction, the next thing will be easier. The four of them said one by one. After several rounds of "screening", a list of candidates for directors, vice presidents and presidents came out.
The candidates for the Secretary-General and Deputy Secretary-General gave Vice Minister Ye a headache.
The Secretary-General and the Deputy Secretary-General, to put it bluntly, are working and serving everyone. The bosses are all well-known figures and are very busy at ordinary times. You can imagine that they are not very interested in being vice presidents, let alone being secretary-general or even deputy secretary-general.
Seeing the leader frowning, Xu Xuesong suggested: "Minister Ye, why don't Gu Cheng be the secretary general?"
"It's not suitable, it's not suitable." Before the leader could speak, Gu Cheng refused with a bitter face. "A lot of things in the office alone make me anxious. How can I have the energy to be the secretary-general? Besides, I can't even be considered an international student."
Considering that Gu Cheng had a lot of work, Vice Minister Ye looked up and said, "It is not appropriate for anyone to be the Secretary-General, Chanjuan, why don't you take this Secretary-General first?"
Chu Chanjuan didn't want to do this job and hurriedly stated: "Minister Ye, Gu Cheng is at least an exchange student. I am not even an exchange student. I am also inappropriate to be the Secretary-General!"
"Didn't I ask you to add one to the draft charter? This is a work requirement."
"But……"
"Don't do it. You are already in charge of overseas Chinese affairs and you are going to deal with people who go abroad and return home. That's it!"
To be the Secretary-General, not only does his salary not increase by a point, but he also needs to find ways to engage in friendship activities. Chu Chanjuan felt a big head when she thought about it, and she drooped her head for a while before she carefully asked: "Minister Ye, I can serve as the Secretary-General, but you have to give me a capable deputy secretary-general."
Deputy Minister Ye knew very well that this was indeed a big challenge for her. He smiled and pointed to the roster: "There are all people here, you can choose whoever is right."
Chu Chanjuan blurted out: "Han Xiaowu of Yanggang Community!"
Xu Xuesong asked curiously: "So many people, why did they choose him?"
Thinking of another big deal from now on, Chu Chanjuan muttered: "There are either the boss or the leader on the list. Apart from Han Xiaowu, who else can I command?"
Deputy Minister Ye reacted: "According to this, Han Xiaowu is a suitable candidate for deputy secretary-general. After all, he is considered half a person in the united front system. But this is not an administrative appointment after all. You have to solicit other people's opinions first and ask him if he is willing."
"It should be no problem, I will tell him tomorrow."
"The Deputy Secretary-General is not in a hurry. The most urgent task is to communicate with the bosses on the list first." Deputy Minister Ye picked up his pen, and then put a few names on the roster. He then looked up and said, "Especially these people are all people who want face, but there can only be one president and two vice presidents. We must fully consider their feelings and do a good job of communication in advance."
"clear."
"Cedar, if necessary, you will help you come out."
"Don't worry, Minister Ye, I will help Chanjuan do this job well."
"Xu Ke, stop kidding, I will help you!"
"I am responsible for Hong Kong's work, contacting non-party cadres and intellectuals of the Party Committee, and recommending CPPCC members. This has been divided up. The establishment of overseas returnees and new associations is the main focus of you, and I am responsible for assisting. Don't worry, I will help without reservation."
...
Han Xiaowu didn't know that he had been "decided" by the young lady of the United Front Work Department as the deputy secretary-general of the Anhai Overseas Returnees Association, and was busy calling his cousin who arrived from his hometown by electric bikes to transport rice, vegetable oil and various vegetables.
"Your mother said Xiao Mi had separated from that bastard and said she had moved you here. Your sister-in-law and I finally breathed a sigh of relief. You have never seen that bastard, and you will know that it is not a good person at first sight. Once your sister-in-law brought rice over, and he not only said a polite word, but also showed your sister-in-law's face. You were so angry that your sister-in-law wanted to break off the relationship between mother and daughter with Xiao Mi!"
"Brother, the past is over. Go back and persuade my sister-in-law. Don't say anything when you see Xiao Mi later."
"When is she getting off work?"
"At 9:30, Wenfeng is not far from here, and you can get home at 9:45 at the latest."
Han Xiaojun loves and hates this uneasy daughter. He got angry last year and couldn't help but act. He hadn't seen each other for a long time and didn't know how to deal with it. After sitting for a while, he lit a cigarette, took several sips in a row, then stood up and said, "I won't wait, I'll go back first if I have to go to work tomorrow."
Han Xiaowu grabbed him: "Brother, no matter how anxious you are, you won't be anxious for a while. Xiaomi is a little ignorant and always makes you feel scared, but she is your daughter after all, and her bones are still connected to her muscles after all!"
"I'll wait, I'll be quarreling again when I see you. You're a commercial house, so it's not good to hear it upstairs and downstairs." Han Xiaojun leaned over and pinched out the sparks on the cigarette butts, put the remaining half of the cigarette in his pocket, and said sadly, "Xiaowu, now you can only say a few words to her, she can hear your words. I'm not promising and can't control her, so I can only ask you."
"Brother, what are the two words of the whole family?"
"Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. I will give her to you. Beat her as you should, scold her as you should, and discipline her as you should!"
"Brother, listen to me, Xiao Mizhen is not what you think. She was just a little rebellious before, but now she is much more sensible. There is no need to scold, let alone beat her. What she needs now is to guide her."
"Don't say good things to her. How can I not know what my girl is like? What kind of evil did your sister-in-law and I have committed in our previous life? Why did we give birth to such a lot of debts!"
My cousin left as soon as he said, but he couldn't stop him. He could imagine how disappointed he was with that girl.
Thinking of my cousin only 44 years old this year, it is said that men are 41 flowers, but he looks like an old man in his fifties and sixties. Not only is his face full of wrinkles, but his back is even hunched. Han Xiaowu secretly made up his mind to find ways to help him discipline the disobedient girl.
