Jiang Hua smiled and scolded: "Look at what you can do, you are a mere little director, and you still dare to decide my boss's affairs. If you continue to be so rampant, will I, the boss of the research institute, let you be ignored?" , I will be a mascot from now on."
"You don't have to anymore, haven't you been ignored by me now?" Zheng Tong said with a smile: "Aren't I in charge of the daily work of the entire institute? Another point, why did the district notify me instead of you? Don’t you have a clue in your own mind? When have you ever taken care of things?”
What Zheng Tong said made sense, and Jiang Hua couldn't refute it. Ever since that year at the vegetable wholesale company, Jiang Hua had caught toads to squeeze out dough, and used Zheng Tong as hard as he could to force Zheng Tong to death. A jack of all trades.
So Jiang Hua asked carefully: "Zheng Tong, I just want to ask if there is such a possibility that you are full of resentment towards me."
Zheng Tong rolled his eyes at Jiang Hua: "Oh, hey, it's really not easy. Hey, you, Mr. Jiang, have finally realized my resentment towards you. I was originally a scholar with a lot of poetry and literature, but you forced me to become this. A businessman with a bad reputation, do you think I have any grievances?"
"Are you busy at work now? Do you want to find someone to help you share your workload?"
Zheng Tong threw the folder on the table onto Jiang Hua's desk and said with a smile: "You still have a conscience and want to help me share the burden. I am also tired. I have been busy from morning to night every day." Home, I don’t even have time to hold the baby when I get home.”
"I didn't say that I would help you share the burden. These specific tasks are not what I am good at." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "Let's recruit people and recruit a team of secretaries for you. You will be responsible for training them. From now on, these people will be the reserve of our company." cadre."
"What a great idea. I have always been worried about the lack of reserve management personnel in our company. You are equivalent to opening a Whampoa Military Academy."
Jiang Hua nodded: "Yes, as long as you train these people on track, your work will be much easier in the future."
"Then I'll start preparing to recruit people. Don't make too many people first. Let's get ten or eight people first." Zheng Tong said happily. Suddenly he slapped the table: "That's not right, it's still wrong. You're alone again." If you train me alone, the training work of these ten or eight people will eventually fall on me, and by then my work will probably be even busier than it is now."
"Isn't it hard work now, but it will be sweet later!" Jiang Hua continued to paint a picture: "Nowadays, the quality of college students is generally very high, and you can be on the road with just a little help. By then, you won't be able to hold your son and play with him all day long. Problem."
In the end, Jiang Hua did not want the spot for the torchbearer. Instead, this quota is used as a reward for internal competition within the institute.
When Zheng Tong informed the public about this, it was like scattering a handful of millet among the chickens. The researchers were excited. Who wouldn't want such a public appearance?
"You are considered a good boss. This honor should have gone to our boss Jiang, but boss Jiang said that our researchers have worked hard and made great achievements, so we must use this honor to reward everyone."
"Long live the boss!"
However, there was only one spot, and the decision could only be made by voting in the institute. After three rounds of voting, a total of two candidates were finally decided.
Zheng Tong said helplessly: "Now there are two people, what should we do if we only have one quota?"
This is a headache. Jiang Hua cannot use the authority of his boss to point it out to anyone. This can easily lead to a disunity in the institute.
He Shen once said that big things are approximate and small things are true, so this small matter related to a quota must be treated with caution.
When he went home in the evening, Jiang Hua watched TV with his father. It happened that a sketch was playing on the TV, and the actors were all familiar faces. Jiang Hua suddenly thought of a way, because he thought of two people, Song Dandan and Zhao Benshan.
The next day, Jiang Hua returned to the graduate school and explained his method, and Zheng Tong immediately agreed. This method was absolutely brilliant.
Zheng Tong invited the two candidates to his office, first made them a cup of good tea, and then said with a smile: "Now you two are candidates, but there is only one quota. The boss and I will I thought of a way to let you compete. If anyone loses this time, he can't feel resentful and can only say that his skills are not as good as others."
"That's okay. The director's skills are not as good as others, so we have to admit defeat."
"That's right, the best thing about me is that I am willing to admit defeat."
After achieving consensus, Zheng Tong smiled and said the solution: "Since you are the torch relay bearer, you must run. There are still a few months until the candidate is confirmed. I will give you time to practice running. , when it comes time to decide on the candidate, the two of you will compete in long-distance running. Hold something similar to a torch in your hand and run long-distance. You must be stable, fast, and have enough energy to spare. Whoever loses by then will not be able to do it. Call me partial."
To be honest, this selection condition is not excessive, but for scientific researchers, it is a bit difficult.
Although the institute has always emphasized the need to exercise and work healthily for the motherland for fifty years, for most researchers, their daily work is in the laboratory, and the playground of the institute can only be used for walking in the morning and evening. A place for walking.
Therefore, the physical strength of these two researchers is actually a big problem. They were a little dumbfounded when they heard the director's request. They had to hold a torch in their hands to run long-distance. For them, this matter was nothing short of a huge difficulty. .
"You can't even meet such a simple requirement, can you?" Zheng Tong asked back: "Although the torch relay is not that far, if you run down in a hurry and gasp for breath, let alone show your face in the end, you have to It has brought disgrace to our institute.”
"Okay, director, just take a look. Isn't it just about practicing running? I've never been afraid in my life."
"That's right. When I was a kid, I had to climb mountains and ridges to go to school. In the past few years, I've worn out my body at the research institute. If you give me time to practice hard, I'm sure I can fly."
Zheng Tong nodded with satisfaction: "You are all perseverant people. I am not worried about this. I will tell you one thing. If you lose then, don't blame yourself, and don't blame me as the director."
So every morning and evening at the institute, two people would appear on the playground, holding a stick as thick as an arm with one hand, and running five kilometers leisurely. Everyone knew that they were going to hold the torch, but no Those who knew would have thought they were going to hunt down someone.
