Chapter 96 Project No. 1

Chen Jizhou, Qu Changguo, and Luo Fangyi were chatting and joking, and someone sat aside again. The three of them looked up and saw that it was Xiahou Mingqi. The three of them stood up and welcomed the president.

"Sit quickly, sit quickly, how can we get so much attention when eating?" Xiahou Mingqi smiled and asked everyone to sit down, "What are you talking about? You're so happy."

When everyone saw Xiahou Mingqi so friendly, they felt that it would be too ignorant to avoid it. Maybe the leader was lonely and cold to eat alone. Let’s accompany the leader to have dinner, chat and relieve boredom.

Not to mention anything else, after Xiahou Mingqi came to Beijiang Evening News, one of the most intuitive changes was eating. Whether it was Zhao Qingdong or the president before, whenever he dined in the canteen, he always liked to have a small kitchen, an elegant single room, and a few fine cooking dishes.

Of course, such a small stove does not mean that the leaders eat and drink wildly, or steal some sea cucumbers and abalone. Sometimes, they only eat some vegetables and side dishes. After all, they are old and have better conditions, and they have passed the era of big fish and meat.

Then why do you still need to have a small stove? Because small stove is a kind of treatment, and there are special chefs to make it, and the dishes cooked are more refined and delicious. Large stoves are usually just used by chefs’ apprentices to practice, and the taste must be much worse.

Besides, leaders usually come from all over the world and come together for great goals. They can’t help but miss the taste of their hometown when eating. The sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty depend on the chef to determine the world. This is related to the physical and mental pleasure of the leader and the overall work of the newspaper, so it is naturally very important.

However, Xiahou Mingqi was too young and had never enjoyed such treatment before in the group. He had never thought of such treatment. Therefore, when he came to work in this new unit on the first day of work, the office secretary asked him what he wanted to eat at noon, he was shocked.

"What do you want to eat? What do you have to eat? Why, you kid want to treat him?" Xiahou Mingqi was just joking. When he worked in the group, he often joked with his colleagues like this.

The secretary was startled and thought he was serious, "No, no, hehe. The newspaper has regulations to inform the logistics room of the food in advance before meals."

Xiahou Mingqi suddenly realized that he was completely different from before. As the top leader of the newspaper, he had to hold his hands and do things. He looked like a leader and could no longer be as funny and laughing as before. Even in his opinion, carefree, rough and fine are one of the reasons why he has been smooth sailing along the way.

However, after eating in the single room for two days, he found that he was seriously unacceptable to this rhythm. He felt like a blind man and deaf man, and had no idea about the situation of the newspaper staff.

No, the status quo must be changed! Since then, the single-room stove has been completely abolished.

The chef's excellent craftsmanship suddenly lost its place to use and was lost for a while.

"President, we are making fun of suffering, hehe." Luo Fangyi was very happy.

Since gradually adapting to the work rhythm of the newspaper and integrating into the circle of reporters, Luo Fangyi quickly returned to her college status, speaking out loud, smart and playful.

"How do you say this?" Xiahou Mingqi frowned, looking confused.

This canteen is really a distribution center for gossip news, a transfer station, and a transfer station. Xiahou Mingqi increasingly felt that the decision to abolish Xiaochang was too wise.

"Because it's very tiring to write, I work overtime all day and only eat the most relaxing time." Luo Fangyi replied, "Although the quality of this meal is not quite satisfactory, it's cheap after all."

"President, Luo is joking with you," Qu Changguo quickly explained, "Everyone has worked hard to report on the World Expo during this period, and overtime has become the norm."

"Oh, this matter," Xiahou Mingqi pondered for a moment, "Changguo, go and call the canteen manager over."

Qu Changguo was stunned for a moment and thought to himself, you Luo Fangyi, what are you doing? Do you know Xiahou Mingqi? If he is a revenge person, you will suffer in the future!

Despite being reluctant, Qu Changguo subconsciously replied, "Okay, President."

The canteen manager quickly followed Qu Changguo to Xiahou Mingqi.

"President, are you looking for me?" The canteen manager stood beside him respectfully.

Since the abolition of the small stove, the canteen manager always felt that there was less channel for communication with the president. He was still thinking hard about how to make the president more satisfied. Now he was suddenly talking to Xiahou Mingqi, and he was really flattered.

"Who is responsible for the big stove now?"

The canteen manager was a little surprised. Why did the president ask so carefully?

"It's the chef."

"Are you sure?" Xiahou Mingqi looked at him, "You can't fool me. Although I am new, I can still eat the difference between this dish and a dish."

The canteen manager finally understood the reason why Xiahou Mingqi called him over and immediately realized the seriousness of the problem. "The chef is usually busy, and his apprentice is mainly responsible for the big stove."

"Nonsense! He's busy? What's he busy with? What's more important than the meals of hundreds of employees?"

The canteen manager knew that he was in the wrong and dared not defend himself.

"Also, you can arrange it tomorrow. In the next month, the cafeteria will arrange people on duty, midnight snacks, tea drinks, etc. in the evening." Xiahou Mingqi put down the chopsticks in his hand and continued, "The reporters have worked hard these days for the World Expo reporting, and our logistics work must be guaranteed. Oh, by the way, the comrades in the discipline inspection team have worked very hard recently and have to take care of them."

"Okay, don't worry, I'll make arrangements now." The canteen manager turned around and left.

"President, you are so awesome." Luo Fangyi almost shouted long live.

"You are so hard, and I can't do anything. If you can't even do logistical support well, it's too incompetent." Xiahou Mingqi was half-joking. He looked at everyone's plates, and they were already empty. He had just eaten half of them. "You can leave after you finish eating. Old Chen, if you are not busy, please stay with me for a while."

Many times, in addition to work, the opportunity to enhance relationships between subordinates and leaders is when you are having fun after dinner.

Qu Changguo originally wanted to stay and accompany Xiahou Mingqi, but since he asked Chen Jizhou to stay, there must be something to talk about. If he forced himself to stay at this time, it would be too ignorant. So he winked at Luo Fangyi, and the two of them picked up the plate and said goodbye to leave.

Qu Changguo picked up the leftovers and looked at Chen Jizhou when he got up and was about to leave. He gave the discipline inspection team a meal at night. Now he had something to talk to Chen Jizhou. Coupled with Luo Fangyi's strange behavior, Qu Changguo was already very sure that the newspaper was carrying out a secret action, and this action was a big job led by Xiahou Mingqi. Another thing is certain that all the personnel in this action were deliberately avoiding themselves. This made Qu Changguo feel more uneasy.

Chen Jizhou watched Qu Changguo with a smile. The eyes of two masters from the martial arts world were intertwined, and a sword-like confrontation had been completed in just a few seconds.

Xiahou Mingqi looked at the two people's backs getting farther and farther away, and asked Chen Jizhou, "How is the progress of the action with the wind?"

"The task force is working overtime. I just sorted out some written materials this morning, and some materials are being sorted out. I will show you the existing materials in the afternoon?" Chen Jizhou said.

"No," Xiahou Mingqi stretched out his hand holding the chopsticks and shook it, "You check it at your pace and wait until the materials are detailed, and then show it to me. This is not a small matter, and many things don't even count if I say it. They need to be submitted to the group leader for a decision. Therefore, every step of the action needs to be carefully considered and cannot be given a handle."

"Yes, the Wind Action involves too many employees, almost half of them, and I am under a lot of pressure. And it also involves two newly promoted deputy editors."

"If you have any work that newspapers or even groups need to do, just say it, don't worry," said Xiahou Mingqi.

"President, have you ever mentioned the action with Qu Changguo?" Chen Jizhou finally expressed his question. He must have a clear understanding of this matter so that he can better deal with Qu Changguo's various provocations openly and secretly.

"That's right," Xiahou Ming was calm, "I mentioned that the newspaper re-investigated the Xiangbei case, but did not mention the Sufeng Action. After all, he is the executive deputy editor-in-chief, and this matter cannot be completely concealed from him. Of course, I did not mention the confidential information in it to him."

After hearing what Xiahou Mingqi said, Chen Jizhou felt that his question seemed to be inappropriate. He was the boss of the newspaper and whether he said it or not was his power.

"President, that's not what I mean. Qu Changguo seems to be particularly concerned about the affairs of the Discipline Inspection Group in the past two days. I guess he might have known something." Chen Jizhou hurriedly explained.

"Old Chen, you seem to have a prejudice against Qu Changguo? Have you had any holidays before?" Xiahou Mingqi asked. He felt that Qu Changguo was a bit similar to him. He was young and strong, and he was decisive in his work. He didn't understand why Chen Jizhou was so resistant to Qu Changguo.

Chen Jizhou was stunned for a moment. He didn't know how to answer.

"President, we have no holidays. Qu Changguo's resume is also very clean and no problems have occurred. But there are some rumors about him in the market that are not very good."

"Rumor? It seems that I still don't know much about the management of Beijiang Evening News. If you have any interesting rumors, you can gossip."

Xiahou Mingqi smiled and seemed to be back to his days working in the group.

"This..." Chen Jizhou hesitated for a moment, "President, this is all rumors after all, and there is no solid confirmation. If I tell you this, wouldn't it be like making a report? You can't say it, you can't say it, hehe."

This Chen Jizhou is indeed an old fried dough stick, and he swallows half of his words.

"Okay, if you don't say it, I won't force it. However, you remind me how to get to know my colleagues more comprehensively."

"President, I have a suggestion..."

"What advice? You said."

"According to the current situation, if this action continues to go deeper, it will involve too wide a range of areas. With the manpower, material resources, and even... even at the level of the task force, there may be many obstacles. There are many links that may be difficult to check, so..."

“So what?”

"Can you be the leader of this task force?"

Xiahou Mingqi did not expect Chen Jizhou to mention this topic. He put down his chopsticks and thought carefully about what Chen Jizhou said, "Old Chen, you are going to tie me into a chariot."

Xiahou Mingqi was obviously joking. He understood the original intention of Chen Jizhou's words.

"President, I don't mean that..." Chen Jizhou felt that Xiahou Mingqi's words were inappropriate. We were all people on this chariot. There was no one who kidnapped anyone. He was about to explain, but was interrupted by Xiahou Mingqi.

"This is a joke. You are right. Action with the Wind is a high-level secret operation. Many things are difficult to advance without endorsement. So, I just considered it. As long as it is conducive to the advancement of the investigation, I can be the leader of this group. You will draft a document in the past two days and formulate a new list of members of the task force, each member will have one. This can also encourage morale. However, the same thing is the case, you must do a good job of confidentiality!"

Chen Jizhou understood Xiahou Mingqi's meaning very well. People who are capable of journalism are all very smart and have strong sensitivity. Once they know that the configuration of the task force leader is at the president level, everyone will naturally understand the seriousness of the matter.

"It's great to be able to upgrade Sufeng Action to Project No. 1." Chen Jizhou was a little surprised by how quickly Xiahou Mingqi made a decision, and he also rushed to surprise and excitement. It seems that this young man is bold and meticulous, not a reckless person. "In addition, I have already prepared a list of the task force's addition of temporary team members, and I have added four people in total, all of whom are from the administrative department. I'll show you this afternoon."

Xiahou Mingqi nodded, picked up the bowl and squeezed the rice.

"President, I still have another problem..." Chen Jizhou hesitated, wondering if he should say it.

"Old Chen, just say it if you have something to do." Although Xiahou Mingqi had just arrived at the newspaper for a few months, he had gradually understood the temperament and personality of many people. Chen Jizhou was not allowed to say anything in his job and performed his duties conscientiously. However, it may be due to the delicate thoughts of southerners, and sometimes he spoke too carefully.

"Have you considered the final result of the action with the wind? Oh, I'm just reminding you that after all, you just arrived at the newspaper and don't understand many situations." Chen Jizhou asked a serious question. Based on his experience in struggling in the newspaper for so many years, it is necessary for this media star to understand the seriousness of the matter, and even do not rule out the counter-effects, which will hurt him.

"Of course." Xiahou Mingqi simply answered two words and continued to eat. After all, he was young and the pace of eating was obviously faster than Chen Jizhou.

Chen Jizhou realized that Xiahou Mingqi seemed unwilling to talk about this topic, so he immediately swallowed up what he wanted to say. Maybe I was worried about it. If this young man could get to this point, he naturally had his tricks. Maybe he could change the newspaper to a new look.

"Uh? Why don't you eat it?" Xiahou Mingqi asked.

"Hehe, I have a small appetite, you can eat more."

"No wonder you have such a good figure. However, our task is arduous now. Eat more to win the battle," said Xiahou Mingqi. "A lot of things, as long as I think it is right, I will do it with all my might. As for what problems will happen in the end, I will consider them, but I won't consider them so meticulously. Otherwise, nothing will be able to move forward."

Xiahou Mingqi's words are too clear. He is answering Xiahou Mingqi's previous question and expressing his attitude and principles in the workplace.

After hearing this, Chen Jizhou felt ashamed. He felt that Xiahou Mingqi was not only expressing his position, but also indirectly attacking him. He was looking forward to his work, afraid of wolves and tigers in front of him. Isn’t this the style of doing things, as well as Zhao Qingdong and Yu Chongming? It is because of his concerns and selfishness that Xiangbei’s case becomes more and more biased and even goes to the abyss of sin.

Yes, I have to retire in two years and there is not much time left. It is time to do a good job.
