When Du Junjian heard Wei Gangqiang say that he had a nephew who wanted to be recommended for military school, he asked with some surprise, "Old chief, you have a nephew in our army? How come I've never heard you mention him before? "
Wei Gangqiang smiled and said, "He's not my biological nephew. I only found out today that he was serving in your army, so I didn't mention it to you before. As for my specific relationship with him, you will naturally understand in the future. I only want to emphasize one thing — regarding his recommendation for military school, please help me. Just treat him as my son. Today, take it as me asking you for help on behalf of my son. "
When Wu Zhongqi heard his last two sentences, a grateful expression appeared on his face, and his good impression of him began to multiply …
Du Junjian hurriedly said, "Old chief, you're too kind! If you need any help with anything in the army, just let me know. I don't deserve the word 'please'! What's your nephew's name? Has his regiment submitted his recommendation materials to the division's political department? "
"His name is Wu Hualin. His recommendation materials have already been submitted to your department. I heard that your division has seven people who meet the recommendation criteria this time, but there are only three recommendations, so four people will be eliminated, right? "
When Du Junjian heard the name "Wu Hualin", he was clearly taken aback. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Old chief, I have an impression of Wu Hualin. Just three days ago, the comrade in charge of the qualification review in our department specially reported Wu Hualin's situation to me. He said that his second meritorious service might be suspected of cheating, and suggested that he be eliminated from the qualification review and not listed as a recommended candidate. I also took a look at his materials. His second meritorious service was indeed not outstanding, and the reason for his meritorious service was also very forced, so I agreed with the opinion of the qualification review team — "
When Wu Zhongqi heard that Du Junjian had already agreed to eliminate Wu Hualin, an anxious and disappointed expression appeared on his face. He stared unblinkingly at Wei Gangqiang, hoping that he would quickly think of a way to turn the tide and persuade Du Junjian to retract his order …
Wei Gangqiang was also a little anxious and said in a rough voice: "Xiao Du, I think that the person in charge of the qualification review is a little subjective and bureaucratic. Why did he think that Wu Hualin's second achievement was cheating? You and I both know that it is not easy for soldiers in the army to gain merits. They need to report to the regimental headquarters, and the relevant people in charge will review the merit materials, and the regimental committee will collectively study and approve it. If your subordinates suspect that Wu Hualin's contributions are fake, wouldn't you be knocking down a lot of people? "
Du Junjian smiled and said, "Old Chief, don't be anxious! "As I said earlier, the qualification examiner only suspected that Wu Hualin's second achievement was because he wanted to meet the hard criteria of being recommended to the military academy, so they hastily assessed him. They weren't saying that he faked his achievement. "To be honest, among the seven recommended candidates, Wu Hualin's military service was the youngest, his qualifications the least, and his achievements the least outstanding. Also, there were people who had already reported that the reason he was able to gain two third-class merits in just two years was because the battalion commander of the battalion he was in was his mother's cousin. After we grasped this situation, in order to dispel the doubts and dissatisfaction of some of the soldiers, and to ensure fairness, we prepared to remove his name from the qualification review. "
Wei Gangqiang said a little unhappily, "Xiao Du, I've never asked you for anything all these years. Today is the first time I've asked you for anything, and I didn't expect to make things so difficult for you. You know that I'm a blunt person. I'll say whatever I want and never beat around the bush. How about this, please give me a straightforward answer: Can you handle this matter regarding Wu Hualin? If you really can't, then just pretend I didn't make this call! "
Du Junjian saw that he seemed to be angry, so he hurriedly explained, "Old Chief, I was just objectively reporting Wu Hualin's situation to you. I didn't have any intention of purposely avoiding it. How about this, since you've already asked, I'll talk to the people in the qualification review team and ask them not to remove Wu Hualin from the list for now. When it's time to formally study the recommended candidates, I'll do the work of the other comrades and try to push Wu Hualin up. "
At this point, he paused for a moment, then said, "Old Chief, you also know that the matter of a military academy recommendation is related to the future and fate of a soldier's life. It's an extremely complicated and sensitive job, and can be said to be the focus of thousands of people and tens of thousands of people. In this job, if there's even the slightest carelessness, it may incite the anger and dissatisfaction of the soldiers, so I can't promise you anything right now. I can only do my best to help. If in the end, I really can't pass, please understand me! "
Wei Gangqiang knew that he was speaking from the bottom of his heart, so he nodded and said, "I understand! Right now, discipline in the military is very strict, and the Party's style of conduct is very strict. If you want to help, there will definitely be some difficulties. It won't be like in the past where you just need to say a word and someone will do it. How about this, you do your best. If you can do it, of course, that would be the best, but if you can't, I won't blame you. "
Then, he hung up the phone and said to Wu Zhongqi, "Secretary Wu, this might be quite difficult. Looks like I'll have to call Du Junjian from time to time to remind him. Relax and eat first. I have many comrades and subordinates in your young master's division. Even if he's rejected this time, I'll go find Du Junjian and the other old subordinates in a year or two and ask them to think of a way to get your son into a military academy. "
Wu Zhongqi nodded gratefully. He stood up and personally poured a drink for Wei Gangqiang, then raised the cup and said, "Director Wei, I've troubled you with my son's matter. I'll use this drink in place of wine to propose a toast to you. I sincerely thank you for your help."
As he spoke, he raised his head and drank the drink in the cup. After Wei Gangqiang finished drinking, he looked up at him and opened his mouth, as if he still had something to say, but he was too embarrassed to say it.
Wei Gangqiang saw this and hurriedly said, "Secretary Wu, do you have anything else to tell me? If it's still about your young master, just tell me. As long as I can do it, I'll do my best. "
Wu Zhongqi hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he still said, "Director Wei, to be safe, I want to go to the military in the next two days to find Minister Du and the relevant leaders of the political department. I want to report my son's situation to them in detail. However, if I go alone, I'm afraid that Minister Du might not necessarily want to see me, so I'm a little hesitant. "
