Chapter 101 The Art of Dialogue
A person's face is like the bark of a tree; it only gets thicker as it grows.
Yes, Chu Yang felt so. In his previous life, Chu Yang was indeed too thin-skinned and extremely hypocritical. He even called himself a scholar, which was ridiculous.
The experiences of the past few days, as well as the various honors that slapped his face, made Chu Yang understand completely.
To survive in this world, getting what you want is the ultimate secret, and there is no need to worry about the means.
If you can't get it, everything is fake. People only see the results, and will very superficially use these results to measure a person's ability and status, and of course his value.
However, Chu Yang has indeed been subjected to a lot of doubts and contempt in the past few days.
Especially the group of people headed by Huang Tianxiang, their jealousy should not be underestimated. They talked about Chu Yang behind his back after dinner, saying how shameless he was. Even Chen Shizhong, who was from the same class, ridiculed Chu Yang in the group.
Chu Yang had never expected this guy Chen Shizhong. In the past, Chu Yang had a good relationship with him and they often discussed girls' bras together. But now his expression was really ugly. It might be because he was the class monitor.
Yes, that's right. Chen Shizhong was the first person in Chu Yang's class to be promoted to the next level. It wasn't because of his ability, but also because of opportunity. Firstly, there were few college students in their power supply station, and the squad leader happened to be transferred to the substation, so he was promoted naturally.
After this guy became the squad leader, those who were usually timid started to become noisy. The tone of voice of people in the same class as Chu Yang also changed. Even a lousy squad leader could give him the illusion of being a leader.
I also heard that he was openly pursuing Liu Jiayan. It seems that this position can really bring about an immediate change in a person. His self-confidence exploded.
Now that Chu Yang's reputation has risen, he has suffered a blow. His "superior" status in the same class is no longer secure, and so all kinds of "connotations" have begun to appear.
However, Chu Yang didn't care about their voices. They were just the humble sounds made by ants. They had no killing power at all. They were howling just out of jealousy, which further proved that what Chu Yang was doing now was correct.
Chu Yang is in a very good state now. He can hear the voice in his heart very clearly. That voice is proud and joyful. It is not as illusory as a mirage, but something real that can be smelled and touched.
This is completely different from the spiritual world that was fabricated in the heart in the previous life.
This morning, Vice President Miao Guisheng, the second-in-command of the municipal company, came down and said he was conducting a safety investigation. After all, it had not been long since the safety accident at the Butai Company's 110kV Gehuizhou substation. Although the final result was reported as a general power incident, it also attracted the company's high attention.
The municipal company also ordered the Butai Company to seriously rectify and implement it, so Vice President Miao’s visit to conduct a safety investigation also has the meaning of supervision and guidance. Therefore, the company also attaches great importance to it and is afraid that the news will leak out. After all, this matter was settled by certain people.
Vice President Miao's car arrived at the company's building. As soon as he got out of the car, President Chu, President Xie and several other directors surrounded him. President Miao put on a fake smile, pushed his glasses, and shook hands with everyone in turn, looking very polite.
When President Chu shook hands with me, he said, "President Miao, we wanted to meet you at the highway exit, but we didn't know your exact time, so we dared to meet you here. I hope you don't mind."
Vice President Miao answered very cheerfully: "President Chu is too polite. Don't do this. I really don't like this kind of formalism."
Haha, I don’t like formalism. So what are you doing now?
In fact, President Miao also knew that what President Chu said was just a polite remark. As the second-in-command, he did not have the qualifications to ask the company's people to greet him at the highway intersection. Even if the company's top leader, President Wen, came down, it would depend on the situation. Generally speaking, greeting him at the highway intersection is a treatment for leaders above the provincial company director level.
He didn't dare to think about it.
When Mr. Chu said this, he was just praising Mr. Miao. This is the art of dialogue.
He naturally responded politely.
Everyone was exchanging pretentious pleasantries, and a pleasant atmosphere filled the air. President Chu cordially took President Miao upstairs to have tea, saying something like "it's difficult to host a welcoming party, and your coming to our company will bring honor to our humble company."
The waiter had already prepared the best Biluochun tea, and everyone chatted for half an hour.
Mr. Miao looked at his watch and suggested going to the "crime scene to take a look and take a walk.
Now that you're here, you should check in, otherwise you won't be able to report back without a photo.
President Chu immediately stood up and shook hands with him again, and said very embarrassedly: "President Miao, I have an important meeting at the city government later, so I can't accompany you. I'll let President Xie go with you. I'll try to come back to have lunch and have a drink with you at noon."
The words were simply beautiful.
Mr. Miao's expression did not change. He waved his hand and showed a standard fake smile: "Mr. Chu, you just need to be busy. In fact, it's okay for Mr. Xie not to go. You can just send a driver to lead the way. It's just a routine matter."
President Chu actually didn't have much to do. All the talk about important meetings was fake. He didn't have any plans for today, so he arranged for his second-in-command, President Xie, to accompany him. There must be a corresponding relationship here. Otherwise, what would happen if the top leader of the municipal company stepped down in the future?
Mr. Miao naturally understood this, but he said that it was okay for Mr. Xie not to go. This was a very dangerous statement. If Mr. Xie really didn't go, things would become complicated and he might lose his temper.
Mr. Xie naturally couldn't not go. No one could break the rules of the game, so he quickly replied politely: "Mr. Miao, it's my honor to let me lead the way for you."
Mr. Miao smiled and said, "Then I'm sorry to bother you, Mr. Xie."
Everyone shook hands warmly again, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Before Mr. Xie left, he politely called Director Liu Chang and Chu Yang.
There is nothing wrong with this. After all, Vice President Miao is here for the safety investigation, so he must have the director of the safety supervision department accompany him. Chu Yang is in the limelight now, so it is understandable to bring Chu Yang along. Moreover, Chu Yang is also the investigator of the Gehuizhou substation accident.
Can stand up at the critical moment.
In the car, Mr. Miao and Mr. Xie were chatting happily.
President Miao taught earnestly: "Butai Company has done a good job in all aspects of its work. President Wen and I have seen it. Comrade Chu Yang is an outstanding member of our company, right? He has brought honor to our company."
Chu Yang didn't expect that he would be talked about, but he just replied: "It's all my job."
Mr. Xie also nodded and replied: "Our success in Butai is inseparable from the support and guidance of the municipal company and Mr. Miao. We are all learning from the municipal company, paying attention to discovering and cultivating models, and summarizing and promoting experience."
Mr. Xie, you are really good at speaking.
President Miao: "We can see the results. You have indeed done a lot of work in setting up the stage, but we cannot relax on safety. After all, safety is our first lifeline. Without safety, nothing else is possible."
Boy, that's a quick turnaround.
Mr. Xie also answered quickly: "Yes, Mr. Miao is right. Without safety, it is meaningless to boast about achievements. We must not carry out work blindly, but must closely integrate it with safety."
President Miao: "In this regard, we must..."
Wow, the two of them were arguing endlessly with each other.
Chu Yang felt that the atmosphere in the car was a bit stuffy and wanted to open the window to get some fresh air.
But I was embarrassed to turn it on, after all, the air conditioner was on.
There's no other way, I can only keep it to myself.
I hope it doesn’t turn into braised chicken.
