Chapter 21 Scandal

  Mentioning this scandal, Ding Wen-hui looked like he was trapped in a miserable memory, his expression very painful.

  Three years ago, the head of the department was Lu Jie, and Liu Jian was the deputy head. The department organized a chess competition for retired veteran cadres. As soon as they heard that a competition would be held for retired veteran cadres, these retired old men and women were very enthusiastic and signed up one after another.

  There are 500 registered veteran cadres in the old dry department, and more than 200 have signed up for the competition. Those who did not sign up also came to cheer as a cheerleading team, creating a very lively atmosphere.

  The preliminary and semi-finals went smoothly, but I didn't expect a big mess in the final!

  The finalists are the original Huang Secretary General and Yan Deputy Mayor. Old Secretary General Huang is a step-by-step promotion from the team cadres, with strong organizational skills, but sometimes speaks a bit indecently, even with a dirty word. Mayor Yan is a retired military officer, straightforward and stern in character.

  Two city leaders couldn't get along when they were in office, often clashing at meetings with red faces and thick necks, a common sight on the East City political scene.

  The old man is like a mischievous child, returning to his true nature! After the two leaders retired, their personalities were even more revealed, without the constraints of officialdom, and they spent their twilight years in harmony.

  It's really a narrow road for these two people to meet in the final!

  Huang, the old secretary, was one move ahead in the game of Go, with a best-of-five format. He had already won two games in a row. By the third game, Secretary Huang was getting a bit complacent, and whenever Mayor Yan made a losing move, Secretary Huang would say with a smile: "Check! Bad move."

  Mayor Yan was usually very confident in his chess skills, but he didn't expect to lose two consecutive games in the final, and to make matters worse, it was against that despicable "Stinky Mouth"! He was already furious, and when Secretary Huang called him a "stinky chess player" again, Mayor Yan couldn't hold back his anger anymore and slammed the chess pieces on the board!

  Lao Gankao was very thoughtful for this final match and specially prepared a large and heavy Chinese chess set, but unexpectedly, the elasticity of these pieces is also good!

  Mayor Yan's chess piece bounced off the board with a loud "bang" and landed squarely on Secretary Huang's shiny bald head, instantly forming a large bump!

  Secretary Huang's head hurt, he was furious for a moment, and then he started fighting with Mayor Yan! The two old leaders, one from a rural background and the other from the military, were both nearly seventy years old but still in good physical condition. The two old men rolled around on the ground like children, hugging each other tightly!

  The activity center for retired cadres suddenly exploded! In order to show their importance, both the TV station and the Oriental Daily sent reporters to cover it, but no one expected this situation to arise!

  The staff and the cheerleaders rushed over to pull them apart. After great difficulty, they finally managed to separate the two old men, who were both left with bruised noses and swollen faces, looking utterly disheveled!

  If it were just two ordinary old men having a conflict, everyone would have laughed and let it go. But these two old men are not ordinary! The current municipal party secretary Zheng Tongxin was the secretary of Mayor Yan during his tenure, and Mayor Zhou Ping was promoted by Secretary Huang himself. Originally, it was just two old men fighting, but different versions were spread, with the most popular one being that this is a direct manifestation of the discord between the secretary and the mayor!

  This commotion instantly became a joke in the government office. The two high-ranking officials felt even more humiliated!

  When the leader gets angry, the consequences are naturally very serious! The director of the old cadre department, Lu Jie, was removed from office and sent to the old cadre activity center to manage equipment. The person in charge, Ding Wenhui, was relieved of his deputy director position and became a deputy director-level cadre, and his career was stalled. Only Deputy Director Liu Jian escaped disaster at that time because he was hospitalized due to illness!

  Once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of the rope! It's reasonable that Lao Ganbu didn't organize activities for three years!

  An hour later, the two section chiefs had almost finished their research and finally opened the door to assign tasks to their subordinates.

  Deputy Director Li Jitong is already over 50 years old, originally an old clerk in the Reception Department, and was promoted to Deputy Director just before retirement. He always has a smiling face, with a good-natured image, anyway, he doesn't need to do any work.

  Liu Jianqing cleared his throat: "Everyone just saw that the Secretary-General has passed on the instructions of the municipal leaders, requiring us to start the activities of old cadres. We also promote democracy, and everyone says their opinions!"

  After a minute of silence, Zhang Xing smiled: "Isn't it just coaxing the old men and women to play? This is not difficult, look at you several big masters being troubled. Last time something happened, it was all because Lu Ke was too eager for quick success and wanted to make a big noise, but ended up getting blown up in his own hands. Look at the municipal party committee, today they organize dozens of old men and women to dance, tomorrow they invite the old men to play cards, it's lively and safe, we also have something to do. With work to do, who would want to steal vegetables here?"

  Zhang Xin glared at Liu Jian with a mixture of anger and annoyance, thinking that the old man also wanted to take advantage of her! That day, when no one was in the office, he stood behind her and sniffed her body, teasing: "I say Zhang Xin, you'd rather steal men than steal vegetables!" Zhang Xin was even more straightforward, reaching out to grab Liu Jian's crotch and laughing lewdly: "Liu Ke, it's just a passing fancy! You're already an old six, even if you took Viagra, I'm afraid you'd go crazy immediately!"

  Liu Xiang looked at Zhang Xin, swallowed his saliva and said: "Sister Zhang's words are very good. This is to turn the whole into parts, accumulate little by little. I applaud Sister Zhang's idea with both hands."

  For Zhang Xin's beauty and **, Liu Xiang had been drooling for a long time. Such a mature woman is really captivating! Liu Xiang was not good-looking, with a cold personality, and on top of that, he had a face full of acne. In college, female classmates would avoid him, and in four years, he hadn't even held a girl's hand. Just before graduation, he finally lost his virginity at a small hair salon near the school, but ended up getting gonorrhea, and was cheated out of several thousand yuan by "Old Military Doctor"!

  It is said that Zhang Xin is very **, her husband is impotent, Liu Xiang is very excited and takes every opportunity to tease Zhang Xin. With skillful effort, it seems like he's about to make his move!

  It's also good to have many troubles, Liu Xiang looked at Han Qin with hatred, since this little white face came in, Liu Xiang found that Zhang Xin's gaze towards Han Qin was all hooked, and she didn't even look at him straight! Damn, it's really true that whores are heartless!

  After listening to Liu Xiang's flattery, Zhang Xin looked at him ambiguously and thought: This little thing still wants to seduce me! I'll play you to death, do you know Wang Xifeng teasing Jia Rui? She secretly glanced at Han Qin with charming eyes, being able to be with such a handsome guy once is worth dying for!

  Seeing Ding Wen Hui remaining silent with his head down, Liu Jian said: "Old Ding, speak your mind!"

  Ding Wen Hui smiled wryly and said, "I haven't thought it through yet. Let's hear everyone's opinions first." Last time he organized a chess competition was his idea, this time he didn't want to take the lead again.

  Liu Jian looked at Han Qin again and said: "Little Han, young people's thoughts are active, express your opinions!"

  Han Qin had just started working and originally wanted to keep a low profile, but seeing that several people were speaking nonsense, drawing arbitrary conclusions, under the current situation it's fundamentally impossible to make progress. If old cadres can't achieve results, then don't even think about having a chance to stand out!

  After some thought, Han Qin said: "I don't have any experience either, let's just share my own views for everyone to reference. What Zhang Jie said earlier is also very reasonable, this is indeed a win-win approach. But I feel that in order to break the current work deadlock, we must have new working methods, first and foremost, we need to go out, understand the preferences of the old cadres, organize some fashionable activities that are pleasing to the old cadres, only then can we increase the interaction between our department and the old cadres, let them feel that we are thinking for their sake, rather than just going through the motions for the superiors."

  Liu Jian nodded continuously as he listened to Han Qin's opinion. He was the leader of a department and more anxious than anyone else. The young man indeed made sense!

  Zhang Xin said happily: "It's still Xiao Han's idea that we should go out and chat with the old cadres at their homes, investigate their hobbies, and not sit in the office designing bridge cards, chess and other outdated activities." Zhang Xin looked at Han Qin with deep feeling, only by leaving this crowded and noisy office, would there be an opportunity!
