[Requesting an Official Position]

Late evening, at Sister Xie's home.

The television was replaying a news segment about the county's investment promotion efforts, and Xie Huilan was also featured. In the scene, she was smiling and chatting with several investors.

"Huilan, you're quite photogenic."

"Really? I didn't notice."

"Whether on TV or off TV... you're beautiful."

"Hehe, you've been flattering me since just now. Did you put honey on your lips?"

"I'm telling the truth."

Xie Huilan, who had just finished drying her hair after a shower, had already taken off her bathrobe and changed into a set of flesh-colored cotton thermal underwear. She was dressed casually. After walking over and glancing at the TV screen, Xie Huilan smiled and crossed her legs, sitting next to Dong Xuebin. She casually picked up a white shirt from the sofa armrest, put it on,

A lateral transfer is only in terms of rank. For example, both are Zhengke Level. Being transferred from Director of the Investment Bureau to Director of the Finance Department, or from Director of the Bureau of Culture to Town Head or Town Secretary, this is already a promotion," and a significant one at that. Dong Xuebin has now brought five hundred million in investment to the county in one go, alarming even the city. If he were to be transferred at this time, it wouldn't be to some nominal position; it could only be a promotion, a Rewarding Meritorious Service. But precisely because Dong Xuebin has only been at the Zhengke Level for three months, not even halfway through his one-year probationary period, it's too difficult.

Xie Huilan said, "At least you have to wait until you've been in office for a full year, right?"

"A year," Dong Xuebin said with a wry smile.

"Don't be insatiable. How about you look at your own resume? When you first entered the system, how long did it take to go from a Clerk to Deputy Director? How many months? Only a few months, while others need at least two or three years! And then, how long did it take to be promoted to Deputy Director of the County Public Security Bureau at the Fuke Level? Half a year!

How about others? It would be good if they only needed two or three years! After Fuke Level, you were promoted to Zhengke Level again after only one year, and now, after only three months, you're already thinking about getting promoted again? Even if I agree, even if Secretary Xiang agrees, do you think the city will agree?"

"That's true."

"A Zhengke Level cadre who is not even twenty-five years old is already conspicuous. To go up another level is, in principle, unlikely. At the very least, it will take another year."

Dong Xuebin also knew that if it were someone else, they would be secretly happy to be promoted every three years. But Dong Xuebin's mind was already set in motion, and now he couldn't take it back.

"And which department do you want to go to next? Have you thought about it?"

"Hmm... Township First-in-charge? If that's too difficult, then the second-in-command would be fine, right?"

"For others, this might be a good choice. They can accumulate qualifications as Township First-in-charge, and then moving up would be a matter of course. But for you... I personally don't think it's that good."

"Oh? What do you mean?"

Xie Huilan patted the back of his hand, kneading his hand in her palm, "No one can sing all the way to the top in politics. Being too high-profile is not a good thing. When you were in the Public Security Bureau, you were too high-profile. When you were transferred to the Investment Bureau, my intention was also to let you be more low-key. Who would have thought that in just a few months, you would have done such an outstanding job in investment promotion and become so high-profile again? Hehe, if you were transferred to Township First-in-charge in the next department, it might sound a little unpleasant, but the fact that you are too capable will sooner or later restrict your growth. And even if you don't do anything, the moment you sit in a position like Township Secretary or Town Secretary, you will be conspicuous. You're only twenty-five, too high-profile."

"Being capable is not good?"

"You may not understand now, but you will in the future."

Dong Xuebin helplessly rubbed his forehead, "So what you mean is, if I want to be transferred, I have to be transferred to a more mediocre department to suppress my high profile and be more low-key?" The Power of Time and Wealth 484

"I'm just giving you a suggestion, and it's too early to talk about this now. Hehe, it's not up to me to decide which department has a vacancy. Let's see in a year or two."

Still a year, or even two?

Actually, what department he is transferred to is not Dong Xuebin's biggest concern, nor is the amount of power his biggest concern. Where isn't work? Wasn't the Yantai County Investment Bureau a unpopular agency before? Didn't he also improve the work? It doesn't matter. What Dong Xuebin is concerned about now is time. Maybe he is too anxious to marry Hui Lan, or maybe Xiang Daofa's series of suppressions have made him a little tired of this place. In short, Dong Xuebin really wants to change his environment as soon as possible. Of course, if he were really transferred to the Sports Bureau or the Municipal Bureau of Culture, Dong Xuebin wouldn't do it. This time, he wants to get promoted and marry his wife in one step. A disguised demotion is not acceptable. In that case, he might as well stay in the Investment Bureau for three or four years to accumulate qualifications, and then directly try to reach the Deputy Director Level.

He wants to be transferred as soon as possible, and he wants to go to a good department, and that department can't have too much power. It's best if it's also in the city... Dong Xuebin sweated, and also felt that he was too greedy. He can't have all the good things happen to him, and the earth is not turning for him alone.

But since he wants to be promoted as soon as possible, it's not Dong Xuebin's style to not work hard.

Without further ado, Dong Xuebin set a goal for himself. He had to find opportunities to see if he could do it in less than a year or two.

Ring ring ring, ring ring ring, Sister Xie's telephone rang.

Seeing this, Dong Xuebin stretched and stood up, "Answer the telephone, I'm going back to sleep."

Xie Huilan hummed, "Don't always think about being transferred and forget about your work. Those investments must be grasped one by one, and the early start-up capital must be implemented as soon as possible from the investors. This is the capital for promotion."

"Don't I understand this?"

"Hehe, go to bed early, good night."

"Good night."

After Dong Xuebin opened the door, Xie Huilan answered the telephone, "Hello, ...

Back home, Dong Xuebin brushed his teeth, washed up, and got into bed. Before the bed was warm, his telephone chirped. Looking at the number, it was Xie Huilan.

Dong Xuebin grabbed his phone and said, "What's up?"

"I just heard something. The city is going to hold an Investment Conference in Tokyo, Japan, in a few days. It was arranged by the city leaders, and they probably started planning it last year. Relevant enterprises and the local Government should have already been contacted and reached agreements. Well, originally it was just Fenzhou City attracting investment, mainly focusing on the city and its jurisdiction, but considering the long-term perspective, the city has decided this time to involve the Investment Bureaus of each county to do a good job in planning and preheating the promotion of project promotion. At that time, they will assist the city in expanding the Chamber of Commerce in Japan together."

"I'm going too?"

"It's not a mandatory requirement, but the city attaches great importance to this investment promotion. The Township First-in-charge should take the lead."

"Then how many people are we sending?"

"Three or four should be enough, not too many. The Municipal Investment Bureau should contact you tomorrow for specific matters. Then you can report the list to them."

"Okay, I'll arrange it tomorrow."

"You've worked hard these days. It's a good opportunity to relax, haha."

At first, Dong Xuebin didn't take it seriously. He hung up the Telephone and prepared to sleep, because the city had probably already discussed the relevant investment with Tokyo. The counties were just there for show, and it was impossible to snatch any meat from the Municipal Investment Bureau. This investment promotion was still mainly for them. But after lying in bed for a while, Dong Xuebin suddenly opened his eyes and felt that this was an opportunity. If he could really attract some foreign investment for Yantai County and continue to exceed the target on the basis of the five hundred million task, then his idea of ​​being promoted in advance would not be impossible.

Forget it, don't think too much.

If I can attract investment, I will. Let it be. If not, I'll just treat it as a trip.

With this in mind, Dong Xuebin yawned, pulled up the quilt, and gradually fell into a dream.
