Chapter 634: Role Model Unit Award is confirmed



Chapter 634: Role Model Unit Award is confirmed

Next day.

Morning. Nan Shan District.

It is drizzling, and sun rays shine through the clouds.

Dong Xuebing drove to Guang Ming Subdistrict in his Cayenne from Yan Tai County Party Committee Family Quarters and reached 8 am. Most people have not arrived at work, and it’s quiet. He was not around for a few days, but it felt it’s been a long time. He looks around the compound before returning to his office. 

8.15 am.

The rain stopped.

Dong Xuebing sat on the sofa in his office and made a cup of Long Jing tea from himself. The nice fragrance of the tea made him feel better.

Knock…. Knock….

Dong Xuebing puts his teacup on the coffee table. “Please come in.”

The door opens. Zhou Yanru and Wang Yuling entered. “Director.”

“Director, you are finally back.” They saw Dong Xuebing’s car downstairs.

Dong Xuebing nodded and said. “I had to attend to some matters and could not come back yesterday. Have a seat and try the Long Jing tea I brought back. These are the new tea leaves this year.”

“Thank you, Director.” Wang Yuling giggled and sat.

Zhou Yanru saw Dong Xuebing was going to pour tea for them and quickly grabbed the teapot. “Director…. I will do it. Wow… this tea smells good. I can tell these are good tea leaves from the fragrance.”

Dong Xuebing laughed. “If you like it, you all can take a packet each when you leave.”

Zhou Yanru quickly waves her hand. “No… how can we do that?”

“Try it. These are given to me as gifts. I still have a few packets.”

The tea leaves Xie Huilan gave him were good tea, and they sat around the coffee table to enjoy them. They discussed work. After Zhou Yanru’s daughter’s school is settled, she becomes more diligent towards Dong Xuebing. Wang Yuling also changed. She was appointed as the person in charge of the National Respect and Care for the elderly’s model unit award and is confirmed to be in his faction. She reported everything, including Geng Xinke and his men, movements. The whole District is looking at this Role Model Award, as it is a great credit.

“Is there any news from the higher-ups?” Dong Xuebing asked.

Zhou Yanru shook her head. “No. The District Leaders had asked me several times too.”

Wang Yuling doesn’t know what happened at the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Zhou Yanru was instructed not to tell anyone, including her good friend, Wang Yuling. That’s why Wang Yuling did not feel confident of getting this award. After all, the competition is fierce, and it’s hard for them to get it.

Many units are vying for this award, and it’s one in a few thousand chances of them winning it.

It’s almost July, and the award presentation will be held in Beijing a few days later. The winners of the award should be finalized now. Dong Xuebing is anxious and is afraid he might not get it. Before he knew Xie Jing and Xie Ran’s mother was working in the Ministry of Civil Affairs, he did not have his hopes up, and a nomination was good enough. But now, he is looking forward to getting it. This award will be his first political achievement as the Subdistrict Office. He had offended many people to get the nomination and didn’t want his efforts to be in vain.

Dong Xuebing was about to call and ask when his office phone rang.

Dong Xuebing remained seated on the sofa.

Zhou Yanru quickly walks over to answer the call. “Hello, Work Party Secretary Office… Oh… Yes…. Please hang on for a second.” She turned excitedly and whispered. “Director, it’s for you. He is calling from the National Respect and Care for the elderly’s model unit office.”

Dong Xuebing stood up and took the phone from her. “I am Dong Xuebing.”

A young man said. “Good morning. I am calling from the National Respect and Care for the elderly’s model unit office to inform you the award presentation will be brought forward. It will be held in Beijing early next month. Your unit needs should make preparations to send a representative to Beijing. Each unit can only send a representative. We will send you the paperwork and invitation soon.”

“Ok. Thank you.”

“Don’t mention it.”

Dong Xuebing did not ask if their unit was selected because there’s no need to. The units that are invited are all winners of the award. The selection might not be over, and the caller could not say they had won the award. But this invitation indirectly tells Guang Ming Subdistrict that they had won it.

Dong Xuebing is feeling terrific and waves his hand. “Director Zhou, Director Wang. Notify the Leaders of all departments to come for a meeting.”

Wang Yuling looked at Dong Xuebing with her big eyes. “Director, are we selected?”

Dong Xuebing smiled and nodded. “Go and notify them.”

“Yes!” Zhou Yanru and Wang Yuling are overjoyed.

Dong Xuebing lit a cigarette after they left. This credit had come at the right time. He had offended too many people in Nan Shan District, and most of them were the District Leaders. Even if he had escaped unscathed, the grudges still remain. He is feeling the pressure from having enemies around him. If this carries on, he might be stabbed in the back before he can join any faction. But everything will change with this credit. He had gotten this credit by himself, and it will secure his position.

Dong Xuebing took out his phone and called the District Executive Deputy Mayor, Shen Fei, to tell him.

Shen Fei asked. “Is this confirmed?”

“Yes.”

“Good job. I will report to Mayor Shen now. You will get the most credit for this matter.”

After hanging up, Dong Xuebing entered the meeting room and told the rest about this piece of good news.

From this moment, Guang Ming Subdistrict falls under the spotlight.
