Chapter 22 – The opportunity to shine (2/2)
5 minutes……
10 minutes……
Guo Shunjie was the first to return.
“Chief Zhou, Bureau Chief Yang says that my draft is not structured well enough.”
The next person to return was Guo Panwei. “Bureau Chief Yang says…… he says……” Bureau Chief Yang might have said something very nasty, and Guo Panwei was too embarrassed to tell Chief Zhou. “He asked me to rewrite.”
Changjuan also returned with an awful expression. “My draft did not make it.”
The last to return was Tan Limei. Everyone looked at her and asked: “How was it?”
Tan Limei did not say anything and returned to her desk and started sobbing.
Zhou Changchun understood immediately. She must be scolded by Bureau Chief Yang too. Sighed…… What’s wrong? How come no one could write a draft that can appease Bureau Chief Yang? If this carries on, Bureau Chief Yang will think that the General Affairs Office had no one capable.
Ring, ring, ring. Zhou Changchun’s office phone rang, and he immediately went to pick it up. “Hello? …… Oh, Bureau Chief Yang…… Yes…… Ah…… Ok…… I understand….. but we…… Ok…… Then…… Yes…. I will ask them to rewrite… Yes…. Rest assure……”
Outside of the office, Zhuang Zhi was trying to comfort Tan Limei.
Zhou Changchun rubbed his temples and slowly walked out: “Bureau Chief Yang said that the City Bureau’s meeting has been brought forward to tomorrow. So, no matter what, he wants to see the speech today. Let’s do our best and write out a speech which meets his requirements. Go through the first drafts and see if we had missed out anything.”
Tan Limei who was still crying: “I…… I had written the draft based on what he wanted…….”
Changjuan: “Chief Zhou, we really tried out best.”
Zhou Changchun sighed: “I know this is not an easy task. But this is the task given to us by the higher-ups. We must complete it. Let’s put our brains together and think of a solution.
Everyone in the office lowered their heads, and no one said a word.
Zhou Changchun frowned and wanted to say something, but Dong Xuebing slowly stood up.
Zhou Changchun looked at him: “Oh? Xiao Dong have an idea?”
“Huh? It’s not what idea.” Dong Xuebing smiled embarrassedly. “Chief Zhou, if there are really no other ways, can I try?”
“You?” Zhou Changchun paused for a while. “You know how to write speeches?”
Dong Xuebing does not dare to claim that he was good at writing speeches. He does not want to let other people think he was too proud. “A little.”
“Fine. Go ahead and try.” Zhou Changchun did not have many expectations from this new guy. Even the drafts written by the experts from the office were not accepted by Bureau Chief Yang, let alone this newcomer. Zhou Changchun thought to just let him try.
Dong Xuebing felt that this was an opportunity for him!
An opportunity to shine!
