Chapter 99: First, Comrade Xiao Ning After having dinner with Zhang Dajun, Ning Weidong went back to get the bicycle which was still left at the police station. Zhang Dajun asked him to wait for a call in the afternoon. Ning Weidong didn't keep thanking him. It was useless to say thank you for this matter. Those two light words were far less important than Ning Weidong's own value. Zhang Dajun was willing to help, but it was not because of his thanks. In the carport at the entrance of the police station, Ning Weidong unlocked his bike and was about to leave when he heard someone calling him, "Ning Weidong!" I turned my head towards the voice and it was Liu Yun. "It's really you! I saw you from a distance just now." Liu Yun stopped on her bicycle and followed, laughing heartily: "We are really destined to meet. We just ran into each other the day before yesterday and met again today. Are you going to the police station to do some business?" Ning Weidong nodded and said with a smile: "It's just a small matter." Then he nodded to Zhang Dajun who was waiting beside him: "Brother Zhang, you go back first~" Zhang Dajun nodded and turned back to the police station.
Liu Yun glanced in the direction he was looking, opened her mouth to say something, but stopped herself. Ning Weidong saw it but pretended not to notice it. He pushed his bicycle and said, "It's too late to go to work this afternoon. Let's call a few classmates next time and have a good gathering." Liu Yun responded, watched Ning Weidong ride away on his bicycle, shook her head, and turned to enter the police station. Ning Weidong returned to the factory in a flash. At around three o'clock in the afternoon, I received a call from Zhang Dajun, saying that the matter was settled. Tomorrow, let Bai Fengyu take her ID and go directly to the street office to find Director Yu from the Women's Office. Ning Weidong smiled. He already knew the principle of not bothering two people with the same matter. If I had listened to Zhang Dajun at noon and gone to the street to find people and had another round of arguing, I'm afraid it might not be resolved in two or three days, let alone this afternoon. After hanging up the phone, Ning Weidong smiled slightly. After this incident, his relationship with Zhang Dajun has stabilized. From now on, I will just run the business slowly during the festivals, and at the same time, I will continue to monitor Zhang Dajun's performance. Is it worthwhile to continue investing in the future, or is this all it is? Ning Weidong hung up the phone, still thinking about it, but at this moment the phone rang again. Section Chief Chen picked up the phone and immediately looked at Ning Weidong: "Weidong, Li Ke wants you to come over." Ning Weidong responded, stood up and walked out, not knowing what was going on. Walk two doors east from the office and you will find Li Peihang's room. Ning Weidong knocked and pushed the door open. Seeing Li Peihang's serious expression, Ning Weidong was startled and asked, "Brother Li, you called me?" Li Peihang said in a deep voice: "I just received news that something happened in Workshop 4."
Ning Weidong was stunned. How come the Liu Xinwen incident happened in Workshop 2 a few days ago, and now Workshop 4 is getting involved in the incident just a few days later? "Brother Li, what happened?" Ning Weidong asked, but he was confused. What happened in Workshop 4? Why did they call him in so quickly? Could the incident in Workshop 4 be related to him? Ning Weidong was puzzled and became alert. Li Peihang said: "The situation of Workshop 4 is special. Although it is nominally in the factory, it is under the vertical management of the superior..." Ning Weidong suddenly realized that this fourth workshop must have a confidential mission. Li Peihang explained a lot, and finally said: "Last night, Wang Baocheng, the former security officer of the fourth workshop, rode his bicycle home after drinking and fell and was seriously injured..." Ning Weidong frowned and asked, "Brother Li, do you want me to go?" Li Peihang said: "It wasn't my idea, it was Wang Kaifeng who suggested it." Ning Weidong was stunned and couldn't help blinking. What did Wang Kaifeng mean by this? From what Li Peihang said just now, being the security officer of Workshop 4 is a good job. Although he is nominally the security officer, he actually has four people under him, so he has some power. Besides, this position is a good resume and has more value than just hanging around in the security office. But at the same time, the responsibility is greater. Places like Workshop 4 are usually fine, but if something really happens, getting involved will be a big trouble. Another question is why did Wang Kaifeng take the initiative to let him go? Is it because he is dating Zhao Ruyu and he knows it will be difficult to do anything to him in the future, so he wants to make amends and ease the relationship? As soon as this thought popped up in Ning Weidong's mind, he extinguished it. impossible! Judging from my previous impression, Wang Kaifeng is a very mature bureaucrat and would not have such childish ideas. Enemies are enemies and friends are friends. Until the fundamental interests of both sides change, no other factors can change the existing situation. Not to mention a security officer in Workshop 4, even if Wang Kaifeng gave Ning Weidong the position of section chief, it would not change the basic relationship between the two. So what does Wang Kaifeng’s move mean? "Do you want to dig a hole and bury me?" Ning Weidong thought to himself, unable to figure it out for a moment. And judging from Feng Wen's attitude this morning, he seemed to be trying to ease the relationship. Ning Weidong said: "Brother Li, what you mean is..." Li Peihang looked embarrassed and stammered, "Weidong, how can I tell you this!" Ning Weidong narrowed his eyes and his heart skipped a beat. Judging from Li Peihang's behavior, nothing good is going to happen. Sure enough, Li Peihang hesitated for a long time, and finally said: "To be honest, if I were you, I would definitely not go. But at the meeting this morning, the factory has already decided..." Ning Weidong raised his eyebrows. The factory had made the decision at a meeting, which meant that Li Weibing did not stop it! If Li Weibing stops him or delays, there is still room for maneuver. For example, find someone else to take over, or emphasize that Ning Weidong lacks experience and qualifications. In short, there are many ways. But once the factory team has made a decision, if Ning Weidong doesn't want to go, he can only say it's for personal reasons.
This is very disadvantageous to him. Ning Weidong looked at Li Peihang with a serious expression. There was no doubt that there was a deal between Li Weibing and Wang Guoqiang behind this. As expected, Li Peihang did not hide anything and said helplessly: "At the meeting today, Director Chu Chengfu of Workshop 1 was promoted to Assistant Deputy Factory Director..." Ning Weidong understood as soon as he heard it. This Chu Chengfu should be Li Weibing's confidant, or the successor he is training. Li Weibing wants to promote him, but he is always blocked by Wang Guoqiang. This time, as an exchange, Chu Chengfu was promoted to deputy factory director and Ning Weidong was transferred to workshop 4. Zhengzhi has always been like this, no affection, only naked weighing. Although Li Weibing is moving closer to the Wang family, Ning Weidong is far from representing the Wang family. Even if this move will cause displeasure to the Wang family, it is not impossible to remedy the situation. What's more, Li Weibing still has some bargaining chips in his hands, and the Wang family will not turn against him because of Ning Weidong. But Ning Weidong didn’t understand why Wang Guoqiang paid such a huge price just to get him to work as a security officer in Workshop 4. What was his purpose? …… At the same time, in Wang Kaifeng's office, diagonally opposite Li Peihang's office. Feng Wen stood in front of the desk, watching Wang Kaifeng arranging the chess game. Wang Kaifeng said calmly: "Li Peihang called him away?" Feng Wen nodded: "Yes, I just came over and reported to you." Wang Kaifeng nodded, but sighed, and rubbed the chess pieces in his hand in annoyance, making a "crackling" noise. Feng Wen was also confused: "Uncle, why is this happening? You just told me yesterday that we won't provoke Ning Weidong, so why..." Wang Kaifeng threw the chess piece in his hand into the chess box and said unhappily: "Do you think I want to?" With a bang, he slammed the table hard. Feng Wen was shocked. It was the first time he saw his uncle behave so out of control. Wang Kaifeng has always regarded himself as a Confucian general. He loves playing Go and writing poetry, and he claims to remain calm even when Mount Tai collapses in front of him. But at this moment, he couldn't control his anger. Feng Wen knew that something big must have happened, and it was related to Ning Weidong. Wang Kaifeng took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Someone above wants to deal with Ning Weidong." At this point he snorted again and denounced Ning Weidong: "It's a self-righteous trick. He thought that by marrying into the Zhao family, everything would be safe..." Feng Wen's heart trembled. Wang Kaifeng had told him personally before not to mess with Ning Weidong in the future because news had spread that Ning Weidong was dating Zhao Ruyu. Why did it suddenly change again? Seeing the doubts in the heart of his capable nephew, Wang Kaifeng simply explained: "Misfortunes often come with blessings, and blessings often come with misfortunes. Ning Weidong's relationship with Zhao Ruyu certainly gives Ning Weidong a talisman, but the golden light of the talisman will also bring him greater troubles..." Feng Wen reacted quickly and understood immediately. No wonder Wang Kaifeng suddenly changed his mind after a day. Presumably, someone couldn't bear to see the marriage between the Wang and Zhao families, and wanted to make a fuss about Ning Weidong, as an important part of the marriage.
…… At the same time, Ning Weidong came out of Li Peihang's office and lit a cigarette while standing in the corridor. Li Peihang was quite frank just now. In other words, he asked Ning Weidong to come over just to make an explanation on behalf of Li Weibing. The main point is that they have offered too much and I cannot refuse, so I can only ask Comrade Xiao Ning for help first. At the same time, it was also revealed that this matter was not handled by Wang Guoqiang. Letting Chu Chengfu become deputy factory director so easily did not conform to Wang Guoqiang's idea. There was only one possibility for this situation, that was someone above Wang Guoqiang had spoken to him and he had no choice but to accept the appointment. Ning Weidong stood by the window in the corridor, took a deep puff of cigarette, and thought quickly. He couldn't help but sneer and whispered to himself: "It's true... he only picks on the weak!" In fact, the marriage between the Wang family and the Zhao family is basically because the two families have common long-term and short-term interests, not whether the two young people will get married. Marriage is more like announcing to the outside world that we are in the same group, and it is more of a formality. However, the other party does not start from the root cause, but makes a fuss about the "form". To put it bluntly, they just want to disgust people. Suppress Ning Weidong, and then see if the daughter of the Zhao family will marry you. It would be embarrassing to marry her, but not marrying her would affect the established plans of the Zhao and Wang families. "What a good plan!" Ning Weidong looked at the bleak scene outside the window, his eyes becoming more sinister. Ultimately it's because of his poor background. If he was the son of the Wang family and married Zhao Ruyu, this problem would not have arisen at all. It’s a pity that he is just the younger brother of Wang’s son-in-law. Ning Weidong had expected to encounter similar problems, but he didn't expect it to come so soon. Throughout history, it has never been easy to cross classes. At that time, Ning Weiguo and Wang Yuzhen were in a special period and special circumstances. Not only is there a problem with the Wang family, but Ning Weiguo also needs to stand firm and not waver at the critical moment. This is why Ning Weiguo has the status he has in the Wang family now. But he couldn't help Ning Weidong. If Ning Weidong wants to overcome this, he must find a way to overcome all obstacles on his own. If you can get through, there will be a smooth road ahead; if you can't get through... you will be crushed in the collision between larger factions. Ning Weidong exhaled the last puff of his cigarette, extinguished the half-smoked butt on the concrete windowsill, and turned to walk out. Passing by the office, take a look inside.
Feng Wen is not here. Ning Weidong didn't go in, but went straight past and went downstairs. I went to the parking shed downstairs to get my bicycle, and then went straight to Ning Weiguo's unit after leaving the factory. In the current situation, Ning Weidong definitely cannot fight alone. Besides, they are coming for the Wang family, so why should he be at the front and fight alone? If we are going to fight, we must pit soldiers against soldiers and generals against generals. Moreover, Ning Weidong must know how much support he can get from the Wang family. This is the most important thing. Throughout history, in any struggle, the few may defeat the many, but the weak will never defeat the strong. Whenever the so-called weak defeats the strong, it is most likely just "looking weak" or "looking strong". As for whether to accept the position of security officer of Workshop 4, it depends on what cards you have in your hand and whether you can play them. Ning Weidong pedaled his bicycle like a roller coaster and arrived at the Machinery Bureau in a gust of wind. This is an old Soviet-style building. Ning Weidong went up the stairs in front of the door. Facing the door was a large mirror more than one meter tall. In the upper right corner, the words "Coal B Donation, February 1967" were written in red paint. Next to the big mirror is the guard room, inside which is a wide terrazzo staircase with red wooden handles rubbed to a shiny red. Ning Weidong went to the gate first and said, "Comrade, please help me find Ning Weiguo. My name is Ning Weidong." I remember the original owner came here once, but that was two years ago. The security guard was reading a newspaper in the room. He looked up and pushed the reading glasses hanging on the tip of his nose to look at Ning Weidong, and pushed out a worn hard cover notebook: "Write your name and unit here." Ning Weidong responded and took up a pen to write. The old man then said, "207 on the left side of the second floor." Ning Weidong thanked him, went up the stairs and knocked on Ning Weiguo's office door. Ning Weiguo was stunned, and immediately came out from behind his desk, asking in surprise: "Weidong, what happened? Why are you here?" Ning Weidong closed the door with his backhand. This is Ning Weiguo’s new office. Everything inside is new and it’s quite large. Ning Weidong took a quick look, not caring about his dry mouth, and sat down and said, "I have some situation here, I just found out and came here..." There was nothing to hide in front of Ning Weiguo, so Ning Weidong told him what had just happened and his guesses. As Ning Weiguo listened, his expression became more and more serious. Through Ning Weidong's narration, he also realized the seriousness of the situation. He originally wanted to facilitate the marriage of Ning Weidong and Zhao Ruyu as soon as possible and use the Zhao family to give Ning Weidong a talisman, but he didn't expect that it would backfire and actually drag Ning Weidong into a bigger vortex. This was unexpected for Ning Weiguo.
