After Zhang Zhifei received deputy director-level treatment, his work and life did not change at all. The only change may be that his salary changed from 110.5 yuan to 124 yuan, which made his wife happy for two days.
As time passed and society became increasingly chaotic in the second half of 1965, Zhang Zhifei understood that the revolution did not suddenly start in 1966, but that there were already signs.
Due to some social chaos, the hunting originally agreed upon by Zhang Zhifei, Gao Ming and others was canceled for some reason.
Most of these guys are the second generation of red people, and they are the first to know about this kind of political changes. The elders in their families may have felt that the political atmosphere is wrong, and they are strictly prohibited from saying anything at this juncture.
Zhang Zhifei also followed the advice of his brothers and stayed dormant for the time being, commuting to get off work on time and never discussing politics in public.
His daily job is to do his job well and never go beyond it. Unfortunately, the wind is not stopping when the trees are trying to be quiet, and the wind in the steel rolling mill begins to blow.
Due to Bai Zhibin's own reasons, the logistics director was taken over by Fu Wei.
Later, after analyzing it with Kang Fusheng, the deputy director of his group, I realized that I had made a mistake. But since the mistake had been made, I could only try my best to undo it.
At Kang Fusheng's suggestion, Bai Zhibin kept a low profile on the surface at the Red Star Rolling Mill, but secretly acted very frequently. He first received the support of Liu Wenming, deputy director of the Security Department.
Later, through Kang Fusheng's matchmaking, he met a large number of careerists. Some of these actions came into Fu Wei's sight and made him speed up.
Fu Wei learned about the severe situation in all walks of life from his elders in the family, and began to speed up the layout of the steel rolling mill. He first found Tian Qiwen and wanted to take it for his own use. Unfortunately, the drawing failed and he could only get what he hoped for through trading. of.
Fu Wei's office.
Fu Wei first exchanged pleasantries with Tian Qiwen for a while and asked about his family and life, looking caring for his subordinates.
Although Tian Qiwen has average abilities, he has extremely rich social experience. How could he not understand Fu Wei's plan? He clearly received his care and expressed gratitude verbally, but did not make any statement.
Fu Wei was helpless against the cunning Tian Qiwen. No matter whether he expressed it or implied, the other party was pretending to be confused and just refused to take action. In desperation, he could only say it directly.
"Director Tian, the director of our security department has always been held concurrently by the Public Security Bureau, and he usually doesn't do anything.
You three deputy directors are responsible for daily affairs. I intend to push the Security Department to add a deputy director of the Standing Committee, who will be responsible for the daily work of the Security Department. I wonder if you are interested? "
"Secretary, I am already quite old and I have lost my competitive spirit. This kind of opportunity is still reserved for young people, so I will not get involved."
Seeing that Tian Qiwen still didn't accept the offer, Fu Wei could only directly put forward the conditions: "Director Tian, you have rich experience and are in the prime age of being an officer. I would like to recommend you as deputy director of the Standing Committee, but you need to support my work in the future. "
"Secretary, our security department is under the dual leadership of the public security and the steel rolling mill, and we will definitely support your work, Secretary." Tian Qiwen continued to be careless.
"Director Tian, I wonder what your conditions are?" Fu Wei also saw it, and the other party didn't even accept the verbal promise, so he could only ask.
"Secretary, a wise man doesn't speak secretly. I also understand that at my age, my official career has come to an end. It's useless for you to tell me these things." Tian Qiwen interrupted Fu Wei's idea of painting a cake for him. .
"Director Tian, you are only in your fifties now, and your career is still developing a lot. Why don't you know how to make progress?" Fu Wei persuaded.
"Secretary, I know my destiny at fifty. I know my abilities very well. If it weren't for various chances and coincidences, I wouldn't be the deputy director at all. To be honest, I am very satisfied with my current position. What can I say? Not even interested."
"Director Tian, I have learned specifically that you are one of the first batch of veteran employees to work at the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill after the public-private partnership. You have the most seniority, but among the three deputy directors, you have the least real power. For these junior people, you are ahead of you. , just have no idea.”
"Secretary, you don't need to persuade me. I still have this self-awareness. No matter when the time comes, I won't be able to take the position of Executive Deputy Director of the Security Department."
Tian Qiwen didn't believe Fu Wei's promise at all. If he wanted to act as a pawn, it was useless to just rely on empty words. He was not a civil servant or military general in the play. He would like to bow down and bow down after being praised for a few words.
Fu Wei looked at Tian Qiwen and really didn't know what to do. He had already received the news. Bai Zhibin didn't know what the cost was, but he got the support of Liu Wenming, deputy director of the Security Department.
Jiang Tao, the director of the security department, is the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau. He does not want to participate in the struggle at the steel rolling mill and cares about almost nothing.
Liu Wenming went to Bai Zhibin, leaving only two deputy directors, Tian Qiwen and Feng Mingxiong. He had already inquired about it. Feng Mingxiong came down from the Korean battlefield. He was a very principled man and would only implement collective decisions and would not surrender to anyone. people.
He could only focus on Tian Qiwen, but the current negotiations were not going well.
"Director Tian, I don't want to hear any explanation. Let me ask you, what price do I have to pay to get your support?" Fu Wei didn't want to drag it out any longer, lest he have long nights and dreams.
Tian Qiwen looked at Fu Wei and felt very embarrassed. He had just met his old boss some time ago. He told himself that society might be in chaos in the coming period, so he should never get involved in the struggle.
He was very convinced by his boss's words. It was too late to hide, so how could he intervene in the struggle between the secretary and the factory director? However, now that Fu Wei was asking him to express his position in a semi-forced manner, he didn't know how to answer.
If I ignored the secretary and made him hate me, I would lose more than I gain, but I didn't want to fight. After thinking for a long time, Tian Qiwen finally spoke.
"Secretary, I don't need to be the deputy director of the security department. You can arrange for anyone to be the deputy director of the security department, but you have to agree to two conditions." Tian Qiwen finally chose to compromise. Anyway, his career had no development prospects. , in exchange for the progress of his sons, it is not impossible.
"Okay, you say, as long as it doesn't go too far, I can promise you." Fu Wei suddenly became energetic.
"After I leave the security department of the steel rolling mill, I will receive the salary of the highest-level deputy director, and I will not come to work in the future." If Zhang Zhifei hears about the transaction between the two, he will definitely say this. .
"I agree to this, but there is one condition." Fu Wei agreed immediately. For him, this was a trivial matter, just one sentence.
"My second son was transferred to a cadre position, and the eldest and second son were each promoted one level." Tian Qiwen finally decided to exchange his official career for the progress of his children.
"Tell me about the situation of your two children."
"The boss, Tian Yongming, works in the Xinjiekou Sub-district Office, deputy section level; the second boss, Tian Yongliang, is a worker in our security department."
"Director Tian, I can still control the steel rolling mill. I don't know anyone in the Xinjiekou subdistrict office, so it's not easy." Fu Wei instinctively wanted to bargain.
"Secretary, I think my conditions are not excessive. If you can't do this, then don't blame me for not agreeing.
Also, when will you finish the matter and come to me again, I can give up my position as Deputy Director of the Security Department at any time. "Tian Qiwen said categorically, if Fu Wei can't even handle these two small things, then don't blame yourself for not cooperating.
If he doesn't do anything and still wants his position as deputy director, that's a fool's errand. It's really going too far, so don't blame yourself for finding someone else.
When Fu Wei heard Tian Qiwen's tone, he knew that this was his last chance. He didn't dare to bargain with him anymore and hurriedly agreed.
Seeing that Fu Wei had agreed, Tian Qiwen knew that if there were no big changes in this matter, he would be the deputy director of the security department for the past few days. He immediately said goodbye and left, preparing to make arrangements for some things in the team.
Zhang Zhifei was still sitting in the cafeteria. He didn't know what was happening in the security department, and he didn't expect that his father's best friend Tian Qiwen was about to leave his job.
Tian Qiwen's departure will also kick off the internal fighting and chaos in the steel rolling mill, but this time I don't know who will win.
