Wen Lao sternly reprimanded Wen Xiu for a while: "You, you just like to play clever tricks, and you lack that kind of upright spirit! If you don't change your mentality, you will suffer a big loss when you reach a higher level!"

Fourth, Lao Yue has already told me today, and I will also say hello to you - you prepare first and sort out the work at hand. Next month, you're going to report to the National Defense University for training. ”

Listening to Wen Lao's words, Wen Xiuzhi was suddenly overjoyed and smiling.

Xu Yan still didn't know what was going on, Wen Xiuzhi's eldest brother Wen Anran had already raised his glass to Wen Xiuzhi, and he said with a smile: "Fourth, it's really gratifying! Our Wen family will have a general in the future." ”

Xu Yan suddenly understood, and hurriedly raised his glass: "Congratulations, Brother Wen." ”

Wen Xiuzhi smiled, although he had tried his best to be reserved, he couldn't help grinning, he touched glasses with his eldest brother and Xu Yan, drank it all in one gulp, and said with a smile: "Thank you, thank you, brother, thanks to your help!" Then, he looked at Wen Lao: "Old man, did Boss Yue tell you that when the time comes, what arrangements does the central government plan to make for me?"

Wen Lao glared at him sternly: "Why do you ask so much? Whatever is arranged organizationally, you can do it, revolutionary work, if there is work, how can there be so many picky people?"

"Old man, I know, you must have news - just say it in advance, and I can make some preparations here!"

Seeing Wen Xiuzhi's lazy expression, Wen Lao sighed: "Fortunately, there are no outsiders here, otherwise I will really be laughed to death - I am about to become a general, and I still look so immature that I don't grow up, how can I rest assured."

Lao Yue said, how do you use it, the Military Commission has not yet decided, and I will talk to you and ask for your personal opinion when the time comes, but according to your resume. It is nothing more than these possibilities: First, let you go to the next large military region to exercise and become a minister of intelligence; second, let you be directly promoted to the original intelligence department and become a deputy minister; and third. It is also possible that you will be asked to become a chief of staff in a field unit -- as to which one it is, this will still have to be considered comprehensively, and it is also necessary to talk to you and ask for your own wishes.

But. I think Lao Yue's tone is more likely to let you be promoted on the spot in the original unit. Lao Yue said: You are now in charge of a very important task force, and the Central Military Commission is very concerned about it, and it is also satisfied with your work. If you were to be transferred from the Ministry of Intelligence, you would not be able to continue to be in charge of that. Considering the continuity of the work, the Military Commission will probably let you stay in the Ministry of Intelligence -- do you have any thoughts on this?"

Listening to Elder Wen's words, Wen Xiuzhi also showed a solemn expression, and then. He shook his head: "Old man, first of all, I will absolutely obey the arrangements of the organization, no matter which position I am assigned to, I will resolutely obey." But if the Central Military Commission had asked me for my opinion and asked me to choose myself, I would have chosen the deputy post of the Intelligence Department of the General Staff Department. ”

Wen Lao raised his eyebrows, his expression seemed to be a little displeased, and he said, "What is good about your intelligence department? It has always been impossible to get into the hall of fame, and if you come out of the intelligence department, you will be a lieutenant general if you reach the sky, and your future is limited.

You look at the successive heads of the Military Commission. If a soldier wants to make a career, he or she still has to take up a post in the grassroots field units, and only with the experience of training and leading troops at the grassroots level will he be able to go further in the future!

I originally wanted to tell you that you should take this opportunity to jump out of the military intelligence. Those who go to the field troops to sharpen and temper themselves -- to be soldiers, have never gone down to the grassroots level, have never stayed in field troops, have not made real combat exploits, and have been working in organs all day long, that is never the right path, and their future is limited!

Wen Xiuzhi groaned, he looked at Xu Yan embarrassedly, thinking that it was his face that fell into Xu Yan's eyes when he was trained by the old man, which made him a little embarrassed. Xu Yan quickly looked away, he lowered his head and drank tea as if nothing had happened, pretending that he hadn't heard anything.

In the end, Wen Xiuzhi still said: "Old man, I didn't think about the future, you said that I should be motivated and struggle to the level of the Military Commission, I feel that I am really not that piece of material - I am very satisfied to be a major general."

The point is, I like to engage in intelligence and reconnaissance, and I feel a great sense of accomplishment in doing this. And, to be honest, I'm used to being free, and I can't stand letting me go to the field army, and being subject to that discipline and discipline. ”

Old Man Wen pointed at Wen Xiuzhi, looking like he hated iron but not steel, and said angrily: "Fourth, you, you have always been free and casual, you are addicted to hard work, greedy for pleasure, and you like to mingle with those who are not indiscriminate in society, and you can't change your young master's temperament when you enter the army! You have been in the agency for too long, and you have not suffered real hardships at the grassroots level! It was really a big mistake to let you enter the intelligence port of the army in the first place, I really regret it, I should have let you go to the grassroots company to exercise hard in the first place!"

Seeing that Wen Lao was a little angry, Wen Xiuzhi bowed his head and didn't dare to speak, but the eldest brother Wen Anran persuaded Wen Lao and said: "Dad, the fourth child has his own ideas, since he likes to do this business, this kind of thing is indeed not reluctant." Even if you reluctantly let him go to the grassroots army, but if he doesn't like his interests, then I'm afraid that he won't be able to do well, and it will be difficult to get results. Let's let the fourth do what he wants to do.

What's more, if the military intelligence is really good, it will also be able to produce achievements and talents, and it may not necessarily have no future. Just like General Li, who founded the People's Republic of China in those years, wasn't he born in the intelligence line? ”

Old Man Wen shook his head: "You, you're here to educate my father today?

The situation is very different! The events of General Li's era were special events that happened in a special era, and they are very different from those now, and it is impossible to repeat them. Moreover, the things on the intelligence mouth involve too many and too deep insiders, and many things are too complicated - the fourth child is not at enough level now, and he can't touch many things, but it's okay to get out now, and when he really knows, he will be involved, and it will be difficult to get out at that time!

Fourth, don't look at your privileges, it seems that you are very majestic, those years, those people who were in the limelight. Don't look at the scenery for a while, it's always difficult in the end!

This pool of water is unfathomable!

Fourth, you used to have a smooth sail. It's nothing more than your cleverness, and people also give my old man a little face. But at a higher level, at your level, I am not optimistic about you!"

Listening to his father's lecture, Wen Xiuzhi drooped his head. Seems to be very obedient. But from beginning to end, he never said a word, nor did he show his attitude, and even Xu Yan could see that the soon-to-be-promoted general was using silence to oppose his father's reprimand.

After listening to Wen Lao's speech, Xu Yan was secretly frightened in his heart - not that he was afraid of what Wen Lao said, he was just afraid of Wen Lao's frankness and boldness. In front of an outsider like himself, Wen Lao just said it, but he didn't care about the presence of an outsider like himself. Xu Yan didn't know, this was because Wen Lao was in a high position. is open-minded and cheerful by nature, and there are no taboos in speaking, or is it because this is an attitude of Wen Lao to show his closeness, indicating Wen Lao's closeness and trust in himself?

Naturally, Xu Yan also knew that it was impossible for him to see through what Old Man Wen was thinking.

This kind of older generation who have gone through the war years and decades of ups and downs in the sea of Huan, their minds are extremely deep, and they are really the intention of Mount Tai to collapse and not move. How can I, the younger generation, figure it out?

Wen Lao trained his son, everyone else present was silent, Wen Xiu's embarrassed appearance, Xu Yan was embarrassed to sit next to him and look stupid. He squeezed out a smile: "Old Wen, don't be angry, if you have something to say, it is not good for your body to be angry." ”

Wen Lao turned his head and nodded to Xu Yan, his expression was much more relaxed: "Alas, it made you laugh." Xiao Xu. The fourth child in my family looks like he is in his thirties, but he still acts like a child when he speaks and does things, he is frizzy, immature, and thoughtful.

Like this time, if it weren't for your help, there would really be no way to clean up the trouble he caused - fourth, Xiao Xu is the benefactor of our family, and in the future, you have to take his affairs as your own!"

Wen Xiuzhi hurriedly responded, he patted his chest and shouted: "Old man, don't worry, I have a lifelong friendship with Yanzi, I treat him as my own brother, how can I treat him badly? impossible!"

Wen Lao snorted: "You said that, I'll just listen to it -- let me ask you, now that Xiao Xu is working in your unit, what level is he and what position does he hold?

Wen Xiuzhi hiccuped, and he glanced at Xu Yan: "Xiao Xu is now, uh, a major scout...... It's a deputy battalion level, and there is no real position. As he spoke, he glanced at Xu Yan again, and there was a bit of embarrassment in his expression, but Xu Yan felt inexplicable - his military rank was major, what was this?

Wen Lao snorted again: "I knew that this was the case! Fourth, do you do things that are reliable? Xiao Xu is my life-saving benefactor, and also your benefactor, treat your life-saving benefactor with this attitude? Just take a major to fool Xiao Xu? Don't even have a real job?"

Wen Xiuzhi looked very embarrassed, and he hurriedly explained to Wen Lao: "Old man, Xiao Xu is still very young, I am thinking, when he is older, I will cultivate and arrange for him well, and then he will be promoted to the position and level - in fact, Xiao Xu has just joined the work for three months, and now he has become a deputy battalion major, and there are already people in the bureau who are telling strange things, and some veteran comrades have said that they have been doing revolutionary work for decades, and they are just a regular battalion, so it is better to be a little hairy person like Xiao Xu...... Actually, I also want to give Xiao Xu a level, but in this case, it is too eye-catching, and it is not good for Xiao Xu's future development......"

As he spoke, Wen Xiuzhi turned his head to look at Xu Yan and said very seriously: "Brother Yan, about your position, I do owe a little, I have also considered it, and I have always wanted to tell you, but it has been difficult to speak in the past two days-you don't blame Brother Wen, right?"

Xu Yan hurriedly waved his hand, and even said that it was not strange or not, Brother Wen had treated me very well - to be honest, at his age, he felt that he could be a major, and he could get a salary of thousands of yuan a month without going to work, hundreds of thousands of task allowances, and an Audi luxury car, he felt very satisfied.

But obviously, Wen Xiuzhi's old man didn't see it that way, and he snorted: "Comrades with old qualifications? Speaking of which, it's not just those old fritters! Those people, who don't have the ability and don't do anything serious, will complain on their mouths -- if you ask them, they have been doing it for decades." Do you have any good results, and what abilities do you have?

Have they ever captured a key criminal like Xiao Xu who has been rewarded at the national level? Have they ever saved hundreds of passengers on an entire plane? Not to mention anything else, if it weren't for Xiao Xu, who had escaped with a gun, he hadn't come and captured him. Thousands of people may die in the capital, and then there will be a big case and scandal that will shock the whole world! If such a thing happens at the time of the National Assembly, do we want our national image?

It is necessary to consider the overall situation of politics in the whole country, and Xiao Xu is a hero who has turned the tide! With this merit, it is enough to get a first-class meritorious service and be promoted to a full-fledged regiment. What's more, Xiao Xu has so many other credits?

Fourth, we must attach importance to and respect talent! Don't keep engaging in the same set of arranging seniority by seniority; now we want to talk about achievements and ability! For those young people who have the ability and achievements, we must boldly promote and use them organizationally, and we should not wait until people's hair and beard are gray before talking about consideration, and then everyone will be wasted!

Can you do a small arrangement? If you can't do it, you tell me. I'll let Secretary Qi do it—I won't believe it, it's been a few years since my old man retired, and he can't even get a colonel!"

Old Man Wen crackled and said, Wen Xiuzhi and Wen Anran both nodded like chickens and rice, and then, as soon as Old Man Wen finished speaking, Wen Xiuzhi immediately said: "Old man, don't worry, since your attitude is so resolute, that little thing is on me - to be promoted to colonel." If you want to review them from the General Staff Department and the Political Department, I will ask them to sort out a few materials and report them as soon as I go back to work tomorrow!"

Old Man Wen glared at Wen Xiu: "Fourth, are you playing tricks on me again?" What I want is to promote Xiao Xu, and this is the result I want! I don't care about any audits, I just want a result - you tell me the truth, if you want to promote Xiao Xu to colonel, when will you be able to do it?"

Wen Xiuzhi glanced at Xu Yan helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "I'll do it as soon as possible—in short." Before I go to the National Defense University for training next month, I will take care of this matter, old man, you can rest assured. ”

"Well, if you say that, that's pretty much it. Old Man Wen looked very satisfied, but Xu Yan was a little depressed - Wen Xiuzhi, you promised Old Man Wen, what do you mean by staring at me? Could it be that you still suspect that I colluded with the old man to force you to fail?

At this time, the boss of the Wen family, who had not spoken much, said softly: "Fourth, if you feel embarrassed about this matter, you might as well leave it to me - let Xiao Xu transfer to me, and let Xiao Xu choose by himself." Within half a year, I will ensure that I am in a real position, what do you think?"

Wen Xiuzhi's sword eyebrows raised, he raised his hand to make a surrender form, and said with a hippie smile: "Big brother, don't rob people with me! There are few people under me who can work, just this trump card, you robbed Xiao Xu, it's better to get me to forget - anyway, you want Xiao Xu, it's no way, what do you want me to do?"

Wen Anran smiled faintly: "Fourth, you are the general of the Ministry of Intelligence, and my temple over there is small, so I can't accommodate your big Buddha." You, I don't dare to use it. ”

Xu Yan noticed that at the dinner, Mr. Wen Anran didn't talk much, and he was very polite and enthusiastic to himself, but he always gave Xu Yan a dignified feeling, and a little light-hearted weightlifting. He has a calm and calm feeling, which makes people feel very relieved when they look at it. He faintly felt that the identity of this Mr. Wen Anran was not an ordinary person.

As if there is really a so-called telepathy, Xu Yan was just speculating about Wen Anran's identity, and the old man Wen over there also spoke up at this time: "Xiao Xu, this is the boss of our family, Wen Anran." He is the secretary of the provincial party committee in Binjiang Province in the south, and if you are unhappy with the fourth child, you can go to him at any time. ”

Hearing Wen Lao's introduction, Xu Yan's hands trembled, and he almost couldn't even hold his wine glass steadily--after engaging in it for a long time, it turned out that the Mr. An Ran, who had been smiling and toasting with him in front of him, was actually a feudal official? Binjiang Province, which is a large economically developed province in the south, is not an ordinary weight to be the secretary of the provincial party committee in such a province.

Looking at Xu Yan's stunned and shocked look, Wen Anran smiled faintly, not so surprised by Xu Yan's shock. He bowed his head slightly at Xu Yan and said loudly: "Xiao Xu will be free in the future, you can also go to our Binjiang Province to inspect and see if there is anything suitable for your development." We also need high-quality talents like you, high-achieving students from prestigious schools -- whether you are engaged in politics or business, the people of Binjiang welcome you. ”

Xu Yan hurriedly agreed, but he knew in his heart that this was tantamount to a promise to himself, and he welcomed himself to Binjiang Province for development. Whether you want to do business or politics there, with the care of the secretary of the provincial party committee, it will naturally be smooth sailing in the future.
