Outside the compound.
The atmosphere is tense.
More and more staff came out of the Investment Promotion Agency to watch the show, and the corridors and windows of the office building are filled with staff. All of them are craning their necks to look at the show. Cao Xupeng, Zhao Xinglong, the Investment Promotion Agency's staff, and a few County Government staff are looking at Dong Xuebing, who is on the phone. Their expressions are different, and no one knows who Dong Xuebing is contacting.
Suddenly, Dong Xuebing walked back and passed his phone to Feng Yu.
Li Shengbing, Wang Na, and Wang Ting look at him. "… what are you doing?"
"Answer the phone." Dong Xuebing looks at Li Shengbing. "It's your leader!"
Hearing this, Cao Xupeng and Zhao Xinglong looked at each other and were surprised. Their leader's call? Xiao Dong has connections with Xin Hua News Agency?
Li Shengbing frowned and did not take the phone.
Wang Na and Wang Ting are puzzled, wondering which leader is calling.
Dong Xuebing laughed. "You are not going to answer? Fine. I know what to do. "
"Wait a minute!" Li Shengbing saw Dong Xuebing is about to take out the phone, and he stopped him. But he still took the phone. He does not know who Dong Xuebing is looking for, but how can a County Bureau Leader know someone from Xin Hua News Agency in a remote place like Yan Tai County? The head office had always been relatively independent and special. It could be regarded as another form of officialdom. It would not have too much involvement with the subordinates. Moreover, although Li Shengbing was less than 30 years old, he was still the deputy leader of a group. He also had some connections and relationships in the club, so he did not take it too seriously.
With the phone in his hand, Li Shengbing said indifferently, "Hello?"
"You are Li Shengbing from China's News Editing Department?" A woman's cold voice came through the phone.
A woman? Her voice is quite young? Li Shengbing frowned. "That's me. Who are you?"
Xie Jing ignored Li Shengbing's question, and her tone is not as polite as when she was talking to Dong Xuebing. "Your leader is Li Jidong? Since when did Old Li's soldiers become so powerful? He had gone to Yan Tai County to guide the Agency? He even dares to threaten the Agency's leaders? Good, pretty good. Li Shengbing, how was your inspection? How many black sheep have you found? "
Li Shengbing was shocked when he heard Xie Jing's sarcasm.
Director Li Jidong? That was not Li Shengbing's supervisor, but his superior's superior!
The woman on the phone called him Lao Li? It seemed that he was not very polite to Director Li?
Li Shengbing's heart was beating wildly, and his tone changed. "Forgive my poor hearing, but you are?" After saying this, a frightening name suddenly popped up in his mind. He seemed to have thought of something.
"I am Xie Jing from the Human Resources Bureau!" Xie Jing replied.
Holy shit! It really was her! Li Shengbing gasped and almost dropped the phone. "Section Chief Xie!"
Xie Jing was one of the youngest leaders in Xin Hua News Agency, and she was working in the HR Department. She had a lot of authority, and most importantly, everyone knew that Xie Jing was close to the President's family. Not only in work, but also in private. Every time the President's wife came to Xin Hua News Agency, she would go to the HR Department to chat with Section Chief Xie. This was not a secret in the agency.
How could it be her!?
Li Shengbing knew that he had hit an iron plate!
Xie Jing saw Li Shengbing kept quiet and continued. "Li Shengbing, you are quite daring. Is it fun to bully others? Is it fun to use Xin Hua News Agency's name to bully others? Seems like the HR Department needs to re-evaluate you. How about this? Come and look for me at the HR Department when you are back! "
Li Shengbing's face turned pale. "No, no … Section Chief Xie … No … I …"
Luo Haiting and Lin Pingping, who were not far away, were shocked. They did not expect the arrogant Li Shengbing to back down suddenly.
Xie Jing continued. "Even I have to address the 'black sheep' as Brother, and you dare to offend anyone?!"
"No … Section Chief Xie! Section Chief Xie! "Beep … beep … beep … Xie Jing had hung up.
Everyone saw Li Shengbing's panicked expression and knew he was being scolded by the higher-ups. Many people looked at Dong Xuebing and thought to themselves, Chief Dong has many connections.
Wang Na asked anxiously. "Shengbing! What's wrong? "
Li Shengbing grumbled in his heart and did not bother to explain to her. He quickly walks over to Dong Xuebing. "Chief Dong, it is my fault for my bad attitude earlier. I did not understand the situation properly before making a conclusion. My leader had scolded me."
Dong Xuebing replied. "If the Leader did not reprimand you, will it be our fault?"
Li Shengbing gritted his teeth. "No … no … I had also realized my mistake."
Dong Xuebing looked at Li Shengbing, Wang Na, and Wang Ting. "Look at you all! Do you all still act like reporters? Ah?! Using a chicken feather as a token of authority?! Don't you all think you all are shameless? I admit that there must be more or less problems in our work of attracting investment. It is the same in other places. As long as you do something, there will definitely be problems. This is inevitable. I also welcome the reporters to find out the problems, criticize and correct them, and we can also improve. But what is this? You all are just making an issue out of some trivial matters! You are not considering Yan Tai County's current situation! You all don't care about the people's feelings! What are you all trying to do?! "
Li Shengbing replied. "We had not done our job well. Please … please don't hold it against us."
Dong Xuebing shouted. "What's the use of not holding it against you?! Your actions had tarnished Yan Tai County's reputation! You all had caused panic among the investors! You guys are so easy. Just by moving your lips, you completely negate our work. Do you know how much loss this will bring to us? Ah?! At that time, you can just pat your butt and leave! What about us?! What about our people and investors?! "
Li Shengbing immediately humbled himself and turned to Cao Xupeng and Zhao Xinglong. "Secretary Cao, Mayor Zhao, I'm sorry for offending you just now. It's really …" He immediately apologized, but he didn't know what to say. He took out his camera and reformatted all the photos. Li Shengbing is afraid now. Xie Jing had made it clear to him that he will be punished when he returns to the County. The best case scenario is that he will be punished, and he might even lose his position.
Cao Xupeng heard what Dong Xuebing said and waved his hand. He finally knows why Xiao Dong dares to scold them. It's because he has connections. Xin Hua News Agency's leaders? Cao Xupeng had thought Dong Xuebing only has Mayor Xie as his backing and had not seen his other connections. Now, he knows Xiao Dong is not a pushover. How can he get connections with Xin Hua News Agency?
Zhao Xinglong used this opportunity to vent his anger and reprimanded Li Shengbing. He had gone overboard in this interview.
Li Shengbing quickly nodded and did not dare to object.
After the interview, Li Shengbing told Dong Xuebing that his leader wants him to return to Beijing immediately and left. No matter how stupid Wang Na and the others were, they understood what was going on. They couldn't afford to offend someone that even Li Shengbin couldn't afford to offend. So they hurriedly apologized and left with Li Shengbin.
The Investment Promotion Agency staff saw this and booed Dong Xuebing.
The crowd is still around, and Cao Xupeng gave Dong Xuebing a stare. "You … if you continue to do this in the future, you will be punished. You must submit a self-reflection report to me!" Actually, Cao Xupeng is satisfied with this outcome. Even if Dong Xuebing did not scold them, those reporters had purposely come to find fault with him, and it's unavoidable. Now, after this incident, those reporters will not report on him.
Dong Xuebing smiled and did not say anything. He had written many self-reflection reports.
Zhao Xinglong did not reprimand Dong Xuebing as he had also lost his temper earlier.
After the reporters left, Cao Xupeng and Zhao Xinglong left the Investment Promotion Agency and reported what happened to the County Government. Cao Xupeng knew Party Secretary Xiang might be unhappy with Dong Xuebing, and that's why he did not mention Dong Xuebing's scolding.
After the leaders left, Luo Haiting walked up to Dong Xuebing. "Chief, calm down. Don't mind those reporters." She did not expect Chief Dong to have connections in Beijing. But after thinking about it, Chief Dong is from Beijing.
After scolding and beating Wang Shaoyan, Dong Xuebing had vented most of his anger. He waved his hand and saw Wang Shaoyan on the floor. Wang Shaoyan was about to get up and run away. Dong Xuebing's eyes turned cold. "Bring him to the guard room! Arrest him when the police arrive! Who are you?! Is the Investment Promotion Agency a place for you to behave atrociously?! Do you think this is your home?! Are you trying to be a hooligan?! Fine! Go to the detention center and cause trouble! "
Wang Shaoyan tried to run away, but two security guards grabbed him.
Dong Xuebing shouted. "Dismissed! Go back to work!"
Lin Pingping, Sun Shuli, and the rest looked at Dong Xuebing and walked back to the office building. Xin Hua News Agency has a special status in China and is influential. But today, Chief Dong had scolded them and chased them away. This gave everyone a better understanding of Chief Dong. A few of the higher-ups were imagining things in their hearts, but the rest of the staff did not think too much. They felt Dong Xuebing's display of his authority was a great relief.
… …
Afternoon.
Dong Xuebing had calmed down in his office. He rubbed his temples and knew he had acted rashly again. He quickly called Zhao Xinglong. "Hello, Mayor Zhao. Err … did the County give me any disciplinary action?"
Zhao Xinglong laughed. "What's wrong? You still want disciplinary action? "
"I am just worried."
"Haha … don't worry. It should be fine."
Dong Xuebing calmed down. If the disciplinary action is more serious, he might be restricted from getting promoted. He still wants to get promoted to Deputy Director as soon as possible.
