Afternoon.
It was past 2 pm.
County Party Committee Office.
When Su Yan returned, everyone looked at him suspiciously. Normally, those who had a good relationship with him would definitely ask the leaders why they called him over. But today was the first day the County's Party Secretary took office, and the leaders had already instructed them to be very alert today. They didn't even have any chat software on their computers, so they were more careful and didn't ask much.
Su Yan sat behind his desk and was obviously distracted. He still felt like he was dreaming. He was someone who had never been liked by the leaders, and now, he was chosen by Secretary Dong to be the County's Party Committee Secretary's secretary. He was really flattered.
Suddenly, a leader entered the office.
It was the County's Party Committee Office Chief, Meng Hanmei.
Meng Hanmei nodded casually when she heard everyone greeting her. The moment she entered the office, her eyes landed on Su Yan. "Section Chief Su."
Su Yan immediately stood up. "Chief Meng."
Meng Hanmei smiled. "We will be changing offices tomorrow. Go and pack your things. If you can't carry it, I will get someone to help you carry it."
Su Yan was stunned. "Pack now? Alright, I'll take it. "
Meng Hanmei immediately called a few people. "Xiao Zhou, Xiao Xu, help Section Chief Su pack his luggage. We will move it to Secretary Dong's office later."
Ah?
Su Yan is leaving?
Moving to Secretary Dong's office??
No one in the office was stupid. When they heard this, they immediately understood. Secretary Dong had just been appointed, and what was the first thing he will do? He will pick a driver and a secretary. Driver? Why would the driver be moving to the Secretary's office? Also, no one had heard of any secretarial department's Deputy Section Chief becoming a driver for the leaders. Then why are there so many drivers? Although Meng Hanmei did not say much, she had hinted at a few key words. Su Yan was going to be the County's Party Committee Secretary's secretary!
Damn!
What was going on?
Why did the Party Secretary pick him?
Of course, no one would think that Su Yan was recommended by the County's leaders. Everyone knew that Section Chief Su was not liked by the County's leaders, and no matter who recommended him, he would not be selected. That means Su Yan was selected by the County's Party Secretary, Dong Xuebing. They had also heard about the black car incident a while ago. Section Chief Su and Dong Xuebing were in the same car, and both of them had beaten up people. But they did not think much about it. But now, it seems that Dong Xuebing's selection must be related to the black car incident. They felt that Su Yan's luck had turned for the better this time. Maybe this was the so-called luck.
Meng Hanmei left.
Immediately, many people surrounded him enthusiastically.
"Section Chief Su."
"Congratulations," Wang Yao said.
"Su Ke, you have to treat me to a meal."
After a while, almost everyone in the office congratulated Dong Xuebing.
Su Yan was quite popular with people, but he didn't think he was that good, especially those colleagues who didn't have a good relationship with him. At this time, they all came over to congratulate him on his promotion. The change in their attitudes was not small, making Su Yan feel a little uncomfortable, but he still replied to everyone one by one. Because the matter had not been confirmed, Su Yan didn't dare to say anything and just thanked them.
Everything was ready.
The few people who were selected by Meng Hanmei helped Su Yan to place his things in the outer room of Dong Xuebing's office. After that, they chatted with Su Yan for a while.
News of this matter spread quickly.
Actually, no one had expected Dong Xuebing to let Su Yan be his secretary. Everyone was surprised. This was out of everyone's expectations.
… …
After work.
Everyone packed up their things and went home.
There were basically no secrets in the government. The moment Su Yan stepped out of the office building, there were many people in the courtyard who greeted him. Some of them were people he knew, and some were people he didn't even have an impression of. It was clear that they had never spoken to him before, but now they all greeted him politely. Su Yan knew what was going on, but he did not let it get to his head. After replying a few sentences, he hurriedly left.
He did not go home first.
The first thing Su Yan did was to go to a small library in the county. He spent a long time inside and bought several books, one of which was about the Beijing dialect. Su Yan felt he had many shortcomings. To repay Dong Xuebing's trust, he had to work harder, especially Beijing dialect. Su Yan felt he should be the first one to understand. It was because Dong Xuebing was born and raised in Beijing. Some people said Beijing people's Mandarin was the best in China. But Su Yan did not think so. Mandarin was derived from Beijing dialect, and most of the dialects were similar. But there were many differences. Other places had different dialects and Mandarin, and they had to learn Mandarin in school. But Beijing people did not have this. All the schools in Beijing did not teach Mandarin. Although Mandarin and Beijing dialect were similar, Beijing people's Mandarin was not as good as other people's. Especially Dong Xuebing, who grew up in the hutongs, his accent was heavier.
No — it means "not".
I'll tell you "means" I'll tell you ".
Su Yan was not used to listening to Dong Xuebing. Sometimes, he could not understand a lot of the words. This was because Dong Xuebing was very good at reading words. Many words were replaced with Hua Yinyin. There were also some slang words that were unique to Beijing. Su Yan felt that he must study harder in this area. If not, he would not be able to understand what the leaders were talking about for a long time in the future. If not, he would not be able to understand what the leaders were talking about. How could he still be a secretary? Every word that the leaders said was very important, and he must not miss a single word. If not, many problems would arise. This was a mistake that Su Yan would not allow himself to make.
Let the leader speak more Mandarin?
Su Yan had never thought of this, and he could not say it unless he did not want to work anymore. If that was the case, he could only learn from himself and let himself adapt to the characteristics of Beijing dialect. That way, there would not be any problems when communicating with the leader in the future.
In fact, these language communication problems were like this in many places, because no one knew where the appointed leader came from. Moreover, leaders were generally not young, and their Mandarin was naturally not as fluent as young people. This was something that the subordinates had to adapt to, and it was impossible for the leader to apologize to the subordinates.
