Yan Jiecheng's Leisurely Life in Siheyuan

Chapter 64: Getting Closer
It stands to reason that all cadres will undergo background checks and inspections before being promoted.

But I actually learned about Yan Jiecheng's promotion to section chief through the radio.

Although Hou Chunsheng and Wang Shaoquan enjoyed fighting with each other, they both maintained a good relationship with Li Huaide and had no idea who was behind their promotion.

This matter must be found out clearly, otherwise it would be bad if you burn the wrong incense.

But who should I contact? Most people probably don't know about this.

Got it, Shi Yunhua, yes, let’s go find him.

As the head of the security department, Shi Yunhua has an independent position and such things should not be hidden from him.

And given the relationship between me and Shi Yunhua, as long as I open my mouth, he will probably tell me the truth.

Thinking of this, Yan Jiecheng said a few perfunctory words to Ding Nianrong, Lu Xiaojun and others who came to congratulate him, then left the office and came to the security department's office building.

The ironworks security department, like the steel rolling mill security department, has its own office location.

After arriving at Shi Yunhua's office, some greetings were naturally inevitable.

After the greetings, Yan Jiecheng asked in a low voice.

"Brother Shi, how could I be promoted to section chief out of the blue? To be honest, I wasn't prepared at all."

"Haha, you're such a hypocrite. Wouldn't it be nice to have you be the section chief?"

"Brother Shi, there's no need for us to talk about these empty things. You said that at my age and with my qualifications, I was able to become a deputy section chief thanks to the appreciation of Secretary Li Huaide. But now that Secretary Li is gone, what basis do they have to promote me? You are a few years older than me, so just give me some guidance."

Seeing Yan Jiecheng say this, Shi Yunhua could no longer fool him and could only speak.

"That's not hard to guess. The Logistics Department plays a vital role in our factory these days. Neither of them is willing to give in, so in the end, the only one left is you, the neutral party."

"Brother, you said I have to report my work for this promotion, so who should I talk to?"

As soon as Yan Jiecheng finished speaking, Shi Yunhua shook his head like a rattle and said with a wry smile.

"Brother Jie Cheng, you really don't treat me as an outsider, but I really can't say anything about this matter. You have to make the decision yourself."

Yan Jiecheng also understood Shi Yunhua's difficulties and could only stop asking questions.

But this trip was not in vain, at least I found out why I was promoted.

After returning to the office and sitting down, Yan Jiecheng always felt something was wrong. Then he found that all the items on his desk were missing.

What's going on? There can't be a burglar in the office, right?

So he looked at Lu Xiaojun next to him and asked.

"Xiaojun, where are the documents on my desk? And the office supplies, why are they all gone?"

"Chief, we have moved everything on your desk to your new office."

After hearing the answer, Yan Jiecheng remembered that the section chief had his own independent office.

Although Yan Jiecheng was responsible for the daily work of the logistics department before, he was only a deputy section chief after all, and could only work in the same room with the staff in the department.

Then Yan Jiecheng went to the office next door.

Although Yan Jiecheng had been to this office before, he was only here to report on his work. Now that he has become the owner of this office, his mood and feelings are completely different.

Just as Yan Jiecheng was immersed in this wonderful feeling, a voice sounded beside him.

"Chief, don't be intoxicated."

As soon as Yan Jiecheng heard the voice, he knew it was Fu Linlin, and immediately turned around and hugged her.

Faced with Yan Jiecheng's sudden intimacy, Fu Linlin blushed immediately and did not resist at all.

After a long while, Fu Linlin finally reacted and struggled in a low voice.

"Brother Cheng, please let me go quickly. If someone sees me, I will be dead." Yan Jiecheng also knew that his actions were a bit excessive, so he quickly let go of his hand and said apologetically.

"Linlin, I'm sorry. I was so happy that I lost my composure."

Fu Linlin rolled her eyes at Yan Jiecheng and said.

"Section Chief, just as you were leaving, someone from the Personnel Department came to deliver your appointment. They also asked if you had any opinions on the candidate for Deputy Section Chief of the Logistics Department?"

"Oh? You mean the HR department asked?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

Yan Jiecheng shook his head and did not answer Fu Linlin. Instead, he changed the subject.

"Linlin, we've been together for a while now, and the New Year is almost here. Do you think I should visit you?"

When Fu Linlin heard what Yan Jiecheng said, her face turned red again, but she still suppressed her shyness and spoke in a low voice.

"Then I'll tell my family first, and you wait for my news."

After saying that, he turned and left Yan Jiecheng's office.

After Fu Linlin left, Yan Jiecheng sat down and fell into deep thought.

Personnel department? Deputy chief?
Wouldn't it be better to just have someone from the factory office deliver the appointment documents? Why bother sending someone from the personnel department?

You know, the Personnel Department has always been the exclusive domain of the factory secretary. The key point is that someone from the Personnel Department actually asked me about the selection of Deputy Section Chief. It really gave me a headache.

According to Yan Jiecheng's original intention, he didn't want to get close to either Wang Shaoquan or Hou Chunsheng.

But the logistics department where Yan Jiecheng works is not an unnecessary department in the factory.

If you want to be a fence-sitter, I'm afraid none of them will allow you to do so.

After much deliberation, Yan Jiecheng finally decided to move closer to Wang Shaoquan. After all, he was more familiar with Wang Shaoquan than with Hou Chunsheng.

Having made up his mind, Yan Jiecheng no longer hesitated. He took some documents and went to Wang Shaoquan's office.

After getting permission to enter the office, Yan Jiecheng said with a smile on his face.

"Secretary Wang, I'm here to report my work to you."

Yan Jiecheng is as respectful as ever to his leaders.

Wang Shaoquan was very satisfied that Yan Jiecheng came to report to him first instead of Hou Chunsheng. He smiled and said.

"Yes, Jie Cheng. Sit down."

After Yan Jiecheng sat down, he quickly handed the documents in his hand to Wang Shaoquan and said.

"Leader, this is a summary of the recent logistics work. Please review it."

Wang Shaoquan took the document and put it aside, then said with a concerned expression.

"Jie Cheng, I'm quite confident in you taking on the role of head of the Logistics Section. I hope you'll continue to work hard and lead the Logistics Section to even greater heights."

“Thank you for your trust. I will need your care, guidance and criticism in the future. Only in this way can I do my job better.”

"Hahaha... Jie Cheng, you're still so humble..."

After Yan Jiecheng came out of Wang Shaoquan's office, he went to Hou Chunsheng's office.

Although it was also a work report, going to Wang Shaoquan was to show his position and get closer to him.

But going to Hou Chunsheng's office is just a superficial act.

Hou Chunsheng obviously understood this and just exchanged a few simple polite words with Yan Jiecheng before letting him leave.
