Fate 31

  "Hmph, nothing's going right, and you're still being so arrogant." Hu Mei said with a pout, twisting her hips as she snatched the Hua Xia Daily and walked back to sit down. Her eyes scanned the newspaper, and she sneered: "What's so good... ah..."

  "What's wrong, Sister Hu?" a staff member next to her asked with a smile.

  "Haha, come see this, the author of these three articles is also named Han Dong, haha, no wonder he's been looking at it all along... unfortunately, Huaxia Daily isn't something just anyone can get on..."

  "Huh? This... seems to be written by Han Dong."

  "Of course it's Han Dong, isn't the author's name written there?"

  The staff member took the newspaper, looked at it carefully, and said affirmatively: "These three articles were written by Han Dong, it's him." He spread the newspaper on the table, pointing to a line and saying: "It says here that it's reprinted from Xichuan Daily, and look here, isn't it talking about the grassroots statistics bureau?"

  "Ah, it's really him." Hu Mei's face was full of shock. "Hmph, now that he's been exposed in the Huaxia Daily, he's definitely done for, no one can save him."

  At this moment, Secretary Huang Wenyun is reading the Huaxia Daily, his eyebrows are tightly locked together, and he muttered to himself: "I really didn't expect it..."

  Hearing the knock on the door, he looked up at Han Dong and said, "Come in, sit down for a while, I'll talk to you after I finish."

  "Alright." Han Dong said softly, sitting down in the chair in front of the table, his hands on his knees, a faint smile on his face.

  Huang Wenyun quickly scanned through the other articles and looked up, saying: "Alright, Han Dong, this time you've also managed to get a column in Huaxia Daily."

  Han Dong smiled slightly and said, "Secretary Huang is overpraising me."

  "Haha……" Huang Wenyun smiled, but his face showed a hint of helplessness. He picked up a cigarette from the table and lit one. Han Dong quickly took out a lighter to light it for him. He nodded with a smile, saying: "You should also smoke, take one for yourself, don't be polite, let's just chat casually today."

  Han Dong nodded, but didn't take out a cigarette to smoke. Although the leader told you to feel free, if you really did feel free, the leader would definitely be uncomfortable and think that you're not well-behaved.

  Huang Wenyun smiled faintly and puffed out a cloud of smoke, suddenly saying: "Han Dong, you're not bad, but you need to mentally prepare yourself."

  Han Dong was taken aback, "Secretary Huang, I..."

  Huang Wenyun patted Han Dong's shoulder, "Han Dong, I appreciate your courage, but your approach is too radical. In this situation, it's easy to get into trouble. Moreover, you must understand that being rigid makes one vulnerable, especially in officialdom, where one cannot be overly impulsive..."

  Perhaps due to the pressure he had been under during this period, Huang Wenyun indeed chatted casually with him as he had said before. He didn't put on the airs of a superior talking to his subordinate, but instead spoke in a gentle and sincere tone, giving off a sense of an elder and younger person having a heart-to-heart conversation.

  Han Dong listened quietly, nodding from time to time, feeling that Huang Wenyun was really sincere in his communication with him. He was moved in his heart. As the county party secretary, he had no particular relationship with himself, but only shared similar political views and was willing to help him so much, which was truly rare.

  "Secretary Huang, thank you." Han Dong said sincerely.

  Huang Wenyun nodded, "Alright, you go back first."

  Although Huang Wenyun didn't say anything explicitly, Han Dong had a faint premonition that the county would soon take action against him again.

  "Now I'm just an ordinary employee with a penalty, what else can they do to punish me?" Han Dong sighed, could it be that he would be driven out just a few days after entering the official career? Although Han Dong firmly believed that things would get better in the future, but for now, this situation was also very depressing for him.

  After lunch, as soon as he walked out of the dormitory, Han Dong heard a hurried phone ringing from inside. He quickly opened the door and went in to answer the phone.

  "Hey, Xiaodong, it's your dad." A clear voice came from the phone, it was Han Dong's father, Han Zheng, Deputy Minister of Finance of Huaxia State.

  "Dad..."

  Han Dong said in a low voice, his heart suddenly brightened up, no matter how big the wind and rain were, he still had a warm home, and so many loved ones who cared about him.

  "You're quite bold, aren't you? Causing such a big commotion." Han Zheng said irritably over the phone.

  Han Dong said: "Dad, I didn't know it would be like this either. I just wanted to change the current situation a bit, who knew..."

  Han Zhengdao: "Yes, you want to change the status quo, what method is not feasible? Now it's all out in the open at Huaxia Daily. You know, those few articles of yours have caused a huge stir in Yanjing, even the old master was shocked. I heard from your mom that there were several groups of visitors this morning. Just now when I came back from work, the old master's old comrade-in-arms and former superior had just left..."

  "Ah……" Han Dong was taken aback. In today's Huaxia, there is only one old premier who can be called "old gentleman". It was this old premier who, in the following time, with supreme wisdom, ended the great debate caused by the disintegration of Russia through a series of conversations, and steered the ship of Huaxia, riding the east wind of reform and opening up, forging ahead in the historical torrent.

  Even this leader was shocked, Han Dong felt extremely shocked and carefully asked: "Did Grandpa say anything?"

  "He didn't say much, but I could see he was very happy. When we were seeing off the old leader, they chatted and laughed together all the time."

  "Really......" Han Dong let out a sigh of relief, and suddenly his heart moved, this might be a good thing.

  In his previous life, it was because Old Master Han stood out at a critical moment and gave a conservative speech that the Han family's power greatly weakened in the subsequent reshuffle. After Old Master Han passed away, the family was even more precarious, struggling with other forces for several rounds before collapsing with a loud crash.

  But now it's different, the old man didn't stand up to make a speech, and because of his own article, he further won the trust and appreciation of the old chief. In the next shuffle, the power of the Han family will not only not weaken, but may even be strengthened.

  "That is to say, fate has already begun to change slowly." Han Dong thought to himself.

  Han Zhengdao: "Xiao Dong, be more careful for a while and don't make any new statements. If it's really not possible, you can go back to Yanjing and temper yourself in the army for a few years."

  It is better to know a son than a father. What kind of character Han Dong is, Han Zheng is very clear. In order to change the status quo and publish such a fierce article, it can be seen that Han Dong did not do well at the grassroots level. This is not surprising for Han Dong. At the grassroots level, it's not like in school, the relationship between people is more complicated, and there are more struggles. It's also conceivable that he lost out.

  Han Dong was stunned, wasn't this telling him to give up himself?

  "Brothers, don't forget to collect and vote, thank you Xiaojiao."
