Living room.
A few people are chatting.
A few people are watching the Spring Festival Gala.
A few people are making dumplings.
At around 9 pm, Xia Yanzhen, Ci Lifen, and the housekeepers had left. Only Han Jing and Dong Xuebing were left to make dumplings. There are more than a dozen Xie family members, and the number of dumplings they need to make is not a small amount. Dong Xuebing changed his seat to his mother-in-law and used a rolling pin to roll out the wrappers. Dong Xuebing doesn't know how to make dumplings, but it's not that he doesn't know how to make dumplings. It's just that it doesn't look good, and one out of ten dumplings will be exposed. But Dong Xuebing has no problem with rolling the wrappers. Even if the wrappers are not smooth, Han Jing's skills are very good. It doesn't matter what kind of wrappers Han Jing uses, as she is very good at it.
Only the two of them are left in the small dining room.
Dong Xuebing looked at Han Jing and asked softly. "Mum."
"What's wrong?" Han Jing looks at Dong Xuebing and asked. "Why are you speaking in a hoarse voice?"
"Err … err … err …" Dong Xuebing cleared his throat. "I have something on, and I don't know how to tell you."
Han Jing said while making dumplings. "Why are you acting so secretive? Haha … just tell me what you want to say. "
Dong Xuebing paused for a second and whispered. "It's like this. If I want to be promoted to Deputy Bureau Chief within six months, can I do it?"
"Deputy Bureau Chief?" Han Jing was speechless.
Dong Xuebing's voice is loud, and Xie Jing heard him.
"What Deputy Bureau Chief?" Xie Jing looked over and asked.
Dong Xuebing immediately replied. "Nothing. I am chatting with my Mum."
Xie Jing nodded and continued watching the Spring Festival Gala with a smile on her face.
There is another skit on the TV, but Dong Xuebing is no longer in the mood to watch it. Even if he likes it, he can watch it at any time. At least, there will be a repeat tomorrow. Dong Xuebing knows what is important and said to Han Jing. "Err … can you lower your volume? Don't let others hear you. I am only asking, and I don't want to do anything. Can I do it with my current qualifications?"
Han Jing shook her head. "Can you do it? Of course not. "
"Why?" Dong Xuebing had set himself the target of becoming a Deputy Bureau Chief within 6 months, and he does not want to give up.
Han Jing looked at him and said: "You are quite ambitious. You are only 27 this year, right? Half a year? Half a year has passed, and you are also 27 years old. Have you ever seen a 27-year-old deputy department leader? Even Xie Huilan was promoted to Deputy Bureau Chief at the age of 30. Your father's rank was not as high as yours when he was your age. Are you still not satisfied? You still want to go up? Haha, it's a good thing to be motivated, but you're too 'motivated'. Do you think that promoting cadres is a child's play? "
Dong Xuebing replied embarrassedly. "I am just asking."
"It's still too early to ask." Han Jing smiled and stopped wrapping dumplings. She counted with her fingers and said, "Then let me do some calculations for you. In principle, the promotion of cadres should be done once every three years. At least in terms of procedures. If there is an exception, it should not be too exaggerated. In the past, almost every time you were transferred, it was an exception. Let's not talk about the promotion of the same rank, but from Deputy Section Chief to Section Chief, from Section Chief to Deputy Division Chief, from Deputy Division Chief to Division Chief. All these big promotions happened within a year, right? But how long has it been since you joined the Commission for Discipline Inspection? It's less than half a year. You had only been promoted for half a year, and you had been promoted three months ago. You had already been promoted once, and it's only been a month. You still want to be promoted? Do you think this country belongs to our family? Haha … "
Dong Xuebing blinked. "But if I am promoted six months later, I will have been working here for a year. Every year, I will be promoted by one rank. This time …"
Han Jing interrupted. "That was in the past. You are now a Divisional Chief. The higher you go, the harder it is. You need more experience. After all, the higher you are, the more people will see you. If you do not have the necessary experience, no one will dare to promote you. Don't you know about the pressure from the public? Even if you are 30 years old, it's still fine. But you are only 27 years old now, and you want to be promoted to Deputy Divisional Chief? You are not qualified in any aspect. It's not that I don't think you are capable. But some things cannot be solved with your ability. "
Dong Xuebing also knows this. Dong Xuebing knew in his heart, and he is not an idiot. Deputy Bureau Chief rank is an impossible task for him now. Even someone like Xie Huilan, who is capable and has a strong background, can barely get it at the age of 30. Dong Xuebing is only 27 years old and comes from an ordinary family. What makes him think he can do it? Also, it's not easy to get promoted. But even though Dong Xuebing knows about it, he still wants to give it a try. This is his style and character. As long as he has a target, he will not give up easily. He will fight for it even if he has to risk his life. It's the same in the past and in the future.
Dong Xuebing asked. "Mum, why don't you ask them for me?"
"I can't ask them. It's hopeless." Han Jing added some stuffing into the dumplings.
Dong Xuebing is not willing to give up. "Ask them first. Mum, can you do it?"
Han Jing gave Dong Xuebing a stare. "It's useless to pretend to be pitiful. I had tried my best to persuade you to get promoted to a Divisional Chief, and you are even the head of your Second Bureau. I had also contacted many people and made use of many favors. Are you still not satisfied? Huh? "
Dong Xuebing smiled. "But I feel this job is not suitable for me. You should also know that I can't stay idle. I can't stop working for the people. But what about the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection? Although I did find some violations, they were all approved by the higher-ups, and the tone had already been set. I don't have the authority to be so flexible, and I can't display my abilities. "
Han Jing replied. "Stop bullshitting. No matter where you are, you are still working for the people."
"But I feel other departments are more suitable for me." Dong Xuebing continued. "Mum, can you do it? Can you help me talk to my father? "
Han Jing glanced at Dong Xuebing. "You can talk to your father yourself."
Dong Xuebing sighed. "I don't dare to do it. I am afraid my father will scold me."
"You also know about this?" Han Jing laughed and said: "This is impossible. Don't even think about it. But I can promise you. As long as you don't make any big mistakes, you can stay in the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection for two to three years. After two to three years, I promise you that you will be promoted to Deputy Bureau Chief."
Two to three years?
To others, it's very fast.
But to Dong Xuebing, he can't wait that long!
Half a year! Only half a year! Dong Xuebing had set a deadline for himself!
"Two to three years is too long. Mum …" Dong Xuebing passed the dumpling wrappers to Han Jing.
Han Jing took the stuffing and stuffed it into her mouth. "Even if it's too long, you still have to wait. Moreover, it's not long at all. In principle, he will be promoted once every two to three years. You should calm down. I think you have been promoted too fast in the past. Maybe this is not a good thing for you. It makes you impatient. But in the system, you have to abide by the system's rules. If you are not qualified and the occasion is not right, you will not be promoted no matter what. Take your father for example. You see, his rank is quite high now. But previously, he was stuck in the same position for five years. It's not that I want to criticize you, but why are you special? Everyone has to go through this. You did not experience this in the past is not the right time, and it is also because you are lucky to make the right decisions at the right time. " Han Jing only meant one thing. It's impossible for Dong Xuebing to be promoted to Deputy Divisional Chief within a short period.
Dong Xuebing is frustrated.
What should I do? Dong Xuebing really wants to be promoted to Deputy Divisional Chief as soon as possible and is not joking. He will not stop thinking about this!
But how is he going to get promoted?
Dong Xuebing's mother-in-law is hopeless.
Get results? But no matter how many results he gets, it will not be enough!
Dong Xuebing's mother-in-law is right. He had been in this position for less than six months, and he was only promoted to Divisional Chief six months ago. This is not the first two years he was promoted from Divisional Chief. Now, he wants to be promoted to Deputy Divisional Chief in less than six months? This is not realistic. The Xie Family is not in charge of the country, and even if it is, it is not easy to get promoted. How many 27-year-old Deputy Divisional Chief leaders have you heard of? Anyway, Dong Xuebing had never heard of any of them. That's why this is just as Han Jing said. It's impossible. It's not about how capable or capable he is. It's about his seniority and age. No one can change this. This is a society that prioritizes seniority, and Dong Xuebing cannot change the date of birth on his Household Register and ID.
What should I do?
Is it really impossible?
After wrapping the dumplings, the Spring Festival Gala had reached its climax. But Dong Xuebing is not in the mood. He gritted his teeth and went over to help Senior Xie when he was about to go to the bathroom. When there are only two people left, Dong Xuebing secretly asked Senior Xie what he wants. Although Dong Xuebing did not make it too obvious, Grandpa Xie can tell what he is trying to say.
"You want to be promoted to Deputy Divisional Chief?" Senior Xie looks at Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing replied embarrassedly. "No … Err … I am just asking."
Senior Xie waved his hand helplessly. "You … wait for another two years. Now is not the time, and you are still not qualified to be promoted."
Dong Xuebing replied. "You just need to say the word, and …"
"What's the use of my words?" Senior Xie laughed. "Do you think we are the only family in China? Many things require a process of breaking in and balancing. You can't just do whatever you want. You'd better wait. Let's talk about it after three or four years. It'll be a good time to sharpen your temper. "
Three to four years?
One year later than his mother-in-law?
