Chapter 200: Being Targeted
Chu Yang used to think that being a leader must be easy, but he didn’t expect that it was not as easy as people imagined. He even felt a lot of pressure. He didn’t even know how many names he had to sign that day.
The key is that Chu Yang's heart is not that big, and to be honest, Chu Yang doesn't trust any of the people in the office, including Gou Dafu, Zhu Xiaojun, Huang Weixing, Zhao Xiuli, and Liu Jiayan, because none of them knows his ins and outs, so he must carefully review the reports they bring over.
I always feel like someone wants to harm me.
The pressure does not only come from work, but more from President Xie. President Xie is really disgusting. He always gives me various orders and targets, as if he can do everything. Of course, there are other people in the company as well.
Because many people believed that Chu Yang had driven Director Pang away in order to get promoted, so other directors and people in the department kept their distance from Chu Yang, thinking that Chu Yang was a heartless person, which made Chu Yang feel a little uncomfortable.
Now Chu Yang goes back to work every day and meets other people in the company cafeteria or lobby. In the past, they would take the initiative to greet Chu Yang, and everyone would chat casually along the way and get along well. But since Chu Yang became the office director, he seemed to have fewer friends around him. Even if he met someone occasionally, they would not greet him as harmoniously and freely as before. Chu Yang also found that they would avoid him and were afraid to walk or sit together with him.
One day, Chu Yang saw Xu Feng and Xu Panzi from the Infrastructure Department. In the past, they had a pretty good relationship in the Infrastructure Department, so Chu Yang took the initiative to greet them and even put his arm around their shoulders. Unexpectedly, this scared him so much that he shouted in fear and horror: "Director Chu, this ~ I can't stand it, I can't stand it."
At this time, Chu Yang realized that there was no going back. It was not that you didn’t want to be friends with them, but that they felt they were not worthy of you.
Chu Yang also understood their feelings. He thought that these people were all in their thirties or early forties and usually called him Chu Yang or Xiao Yang. It would be hard to ask them to suddenly change their names to Director Chu and be so respectful in front of a young boy.
This is really embarrassing.
No one can easily transcend human nature. Even if you, Chu Yang, pretend to be humble, it will be useless.
This twisted society makes people fear the level of their positions since childhood, and they are afraid of "officials" from the bottom of their hearts. No matter how young Chu Yang is, he is still the office director and a popular figure around President Xie.
So even though they were not convinced by Chu Yang in their hearts, they still had to pretend to be happy in public. Of course, this kind of pretended happiness was very suffocating, so in order to feel comfortable, they simply avoided Chu Yang and avoided a lot of embarrassment by not meeting him.
Chu Yang felt uncomfortable at first. Their relationship was usually pretty good, so why did they suddenly become distant?
But I gradually understood it. This might be the so-called "it's lonely at the top". This is probably why those emperors called themselves "I".
Objectively speaking, they are indeed not worthy of being friends with Chu Yang.
In the office, although Huang Weixing is a flatterer and a bit talkative, he is indeed a good helper. He is best at going out and connecting with other departments, and he can also write manuscripts.
Although Sister Li is a mysophobe, she is never careless at work. She does her job without hesitation. No matter what information or numbers Chu Yang wants, she can give them to him immediately.
Gou Dafu and Zhu Xiaojun are a bit passive in their work, but they are still obedient. They do whatever I tell them to do and at least they dare not oppose me. But Liu Jiayan, after being criticized by me last time, has become more and more emotional in her work and seems to have a confrontational mentality.
Chu Yang was thinking, if she really dared to act presumptuously, he would exchange her with Mr. Xie, and he also planned to arrange a few confidants to come up...
Today, Mr. Miao from the municipal company brought Director Lai from the office and a group of four people to Butai to inspect the safety work. Because Mr. Xie had a meeting at the municipal government and Mayor Huang also invited him to dinner or something, he asked Zhang Keyi and Chu Yang to be responsible for receiving Mr. Miao.
Perhaps Mr. Xie is also using the same tactics as Mr. Chu did before, and feels that Mr. Miao is not qualified to be received by him.
Come to think of it, Mr. Miao, objectively speaking, is only the third in command of the municipal company.
Zhang Keyi and Chu Yang were waiting at the door.
In the process of waiting.
Zhang Keyi said, "Chu Yang, Mr. Miao will be here soon. You should behave well and try to make a good impression on him, okay?"
Chu Yang still remembered that he said that Mr. Miao had a lot of opinions about him, so he said indifferently: "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Miao is very generous and will not hold it against me."
Zhang Keyi muttered: "I know Mr. Miao. He is very stingy. You should be careful."
Chu Yang disagreed: "At most I will hide."
Finally, Mr. Miao’s jeep arrived.
Zhang Keyi immediately put on a warm and bright smile and greeted the leader of the municipal company. She naturally opened the car door and welcomed him out. She said hello to everyone in a familiar way: "Hey, Mr. Miao, you finally came to see me. Welcome! Director Lai is here too. What a rare guest. And Xiao Ming and Xiao Wang, you two are acquaintances. Come in and have a cup of tea first. You have worked hard on the way."
Yes, she herself came from the municipal company and knew all these people very well.
Chu Yang had only met Mr. Miao and Director Lai a few times. Unfortunately, Zhiying didn't come.
As soon as Mr. Miao got out of the car, he happily shook Mr. Zhang's hand and said with a smile: "Keyi, to be honest, we really don't want you to leave. Mr. Liang and I are really not used to you leaving. Mr. Wen even said last night that your departure has caused chaos in our finances."
Why is he stroking the back of his hand?
You old pervert.
Zhang Keyi smiled as if nothing had happened and said, "Mr. Miao, you're joking again. The Finance Department is made up of talents brought up by me. Xiuhua and Huahua are both backbones, and Haibo is here. How could things be out of control?" However, she still took the opportunity to pull her hand back when the time was right.
President Miao also laughed: "Haha, you still saw through it. In fact, we missed you, so we came to see you today. How about it, how does it feel to be the vice president?"
Zhang Keyi smiled charmingly, "Boss Miao, it's still work no matter where you go. You are just serving the company."
"That's different. It makes a big difference who you match it with. It won't be harmonious."
Chu Yang was listening to them chatting and laughing nearby. The fake smile on his face became a little stiff. He wondered if he was a little redundant. In fact, no one cared about him. He should not be here, but under the car.
It is completely enough to have Mr. Zhang alone.
Just when Chu Yang wanted to slip away, Mr. Zhang grabbed Chu Yang and said to Mr. Miao: "Mr. Miao, let me introduce you. This is the new director of our Butai Company Office, Comrade Chu Yang." After saying that, he pushed Chu Yang.
Chu Yang knew what she meant, asking him to take the initiative and give in. Chu Yang couldn't leave, so he quickly stepped forward and stretched out his hand and said, "Boss Miao, hello, welcome to guide our work!"
Mr. Miao had seen Chu Yang and knew Chu Yang. In fact, he had seen Chu Yang a long time ago, but just didn't want to pay attention to him. At this time, he pretended to look Chu Yang up and down, and said in surprise: "I heard from Director Lai a few days ago that the office director of the Butai Company was replaced. He was said to be very young. I didn't expect that he was even younger than I thought! The young are formidable. After seeing such a young office director, I feel that an old man like me should retire. It's not good enough. Aren't you too hasty? Rejuvenation of cadres is a good thing, but you can't let young people who have just graduated take such an important position."
His words were very hateful, and he saw Chu Yang's hand was in the air, and he put his hands behind his back, but he didn't reach out to shake hands with Chu Yang.
Chu Yang felt a sense of being looked down upon and felt very uncomfortable, but he knew that the person he was looking at was a city leader, so he still forced a smile and said, "Boss Miao, you must be joking. You don't look old at all. If I could still look the same as you when I was your age, I would be really happy."
Mr. Miao said "oh" and the smile on his face faded.
Mr. Zhang noticed that he was a little embarrassed, and pointed at Director Lai and said, "Chu Yang, this is Director Lai, you should know it, you ."
Director Lai was not that arrogant. He stepped forward and nodded to Chu Yang: "Hello, Director Chu." How could he dare to shake hands if President Miao didn't want to? He knew the rule.
"Director Lai, you are too polite. I have admired you for a long time."
"Sure, sure."
Mr. Miao here doesn't look very happy.
Zhang Keyi added, "It's windy outside, Mr. Miao, please come in and have a cup of tea first."
President Miao then took the lead in entering the door. After entering, President Miao continued to chat and laugh with Zhang Keyi, completely ignoring Chu Yang.
Chu Yang didn't care.
Just ignore it.
