Chapter 41: When I Went to Stay (Ending 1)

After the adjustment of the newspaper's leadership team, the new editor-in-chief Wei Qiao basically followed the rules and regulations when he took office, and basically did not make any changes to the rules and regulations formulated by Mr. Huang. He also specially arranged time to talk with the leaders of various departments one by one, and here there is also a meaning of mutual acquaintance and familiarity, so as to facilitate the work later.

Wei Qiao is not too old, not too young, he has just turned fifty this year, but he looks very young, and he can be believed when he is in his early forties. If Mr. Huang is gentle and benevolent, and his style of acting is to lead by example and find faults, then Wei Qiao's style of acting is to lift weights lightly and talk and laugh. Words and deeds seem to be a little aggressive.

In terms of the new personnel arrangements of the newspaper, Wei Qiao is most concerned about who will replace Qian Weidong as the director of the reporter department. In fact, Wei Qiao has not only been seriously considering this matter, but also specifically asked for his opinion when handing over the work with Mr. Huang.

After careful consideration at that time, Mr. Huang recommended Gao Ming very carefully. Wei Qiao laughed when he heard it, and said that the hero sees the same thing, and I also think the same way.

Then the two had a further exchange of views on the matter.

Wei Qiao asked Mr. Huang, what do you think of Gao Ming?

Mr. Huang smiled bitterly, and said with some hatred, in general, Gao Ming's eyes are not bad, but don't think that I recommended him to pick up Qian Weidong, just think that I have a high evaluation of him. In fact, this person has no mind, he can't afford to put it down, and he can't use it if he is small.

Mr. Huang's feelings for Gao Ming are very complicated, and when he speaks like this at this moment, he is actually a little insincere. Although he loves talents, he is very principled in his work. A few days ago, Chen Xiaowei had an accident, and Gao Ming took the draft from the hospital for him to review, and he was reluctant to make an exception, also because he considered Gao Ming's future situation. It's just that I didn't expect that this matter would even reach the point of divorce later. Although Mr. Huang didn't say anything in his mouth, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart. Chen Xiaowei has seen it a few times, and his impression is not bad. Speaking of which, this thing is still a pity.

Mr. Huang knew that Wei Qiao was in charge of literature and art in the Propaganda Department before, and it was not news, so he asked him, Mr. Wei, why do you think of Gao Ming?

Wei Qiao smiled and said You don't know, in fact, Gao Ming may not have paid attention to me, but I have always paid attention to him because I like to read his articles.

Mr. Huang smiled and said that, I don't need to say anything more.

In the morning, when the party group of the newspaper held a meeting to study personnel issues and discuss the selection of the new director of the press department, Wei Qiao talked about his thoughts as soon as he opened the meeting. As soon as several members of the party group heard this, they began to talk about it, and there were obvious differences of opinion. What puzzled Wei Qiao the most was that even Qian Weidong's position was very ambiguous, and he did not support him clearly.

Wei Qiao listened carefully for a long time and summarized their opinions, Gao Ming's shortcomings are mainly manifested in two aspects, one is arrogant and does not respect the leader very much, and the other is keen to chase fame and fortune, does not do his job, and spends a lot of time and energy to write online novels.

Wei Qiao had also done some investigation into Gao Ming's situation before, and knew that the situation was not serious enough to be on the line. said that Gao Mingfang was crazy, mainly because he never took the initiative to approach the leader, and only nodded and said hello when he met, never moving, let alone giving gifts and other actions. As for writing online novels, it doesn't seem to take up work time, which should be a normal personal preference.

Of course, these words can't be said positively, so Wei Qiao said when he spoke, I don't think Gao Ming is a perfect person, but the press has always hidden the dragon and crouching tiger, Gao Ming can not only live in peace, but also mix well, which shows that he relies on his ability to eat. And he has been in the industry for many years, and his reputation in the circle is still good, and there are no negative rumors, which also proves that this person has no losses. Of course, he is more sophisticated and tactful, and the turmoil in the media field is sinister, but he can always be safe, and he is obviously an old fritter.

When Wei Qiao said this, he deliberately paused and looked at everyone's reactions. Seeing that no one answered this topic, he changed his mind and said again, but I think that the press department is the most important business of the whole newspaper, so the professional quality of the director of the press department must be excellent, top-notch, and I don't need to say much about my clever ability, and he is very dedicated, and these guys know better than me. So I think as long as there are no major problems in other aspects, you can consider it.

Anyone can hear that Wei Qiao's concluding speech is actually a force to override public opinion. In the years that President Huang has been in power, the party group of the newspaper has always been very democratic, and everyone is really uncomfortable with the sudden change of Wei Ming's style.

But Wei Qiao is so capricious.

The reason why Wei Qiao speaks without scruples is because he has no selfish intentions, everything is for work, and he also knows how to use the advantages of the number one. In addition, he has no relationship with Gao Ming, after all, foreign monks are good at chanting scriptures, and they are not afraid of others gossiping.

The opinions of the top leaders must always be respected, and no one present refutes the face of the new and old bosses.

Although the party group has an intention, that is, there is a glimpse of the eight characters, and there are a series of procedures such as democratic election to be followed. Whether Gao Ming can pass the test or not, no one can say now.

Within two days of the party group meeting, the news of promoting Gao Ming gradually spread, especially in the press department, which basically became a secret that everyone knew. In fact, everyone knows that the current situation is like this, and it is difficult to keep everything secret. Although leaders at all levels have repeatedly stressed the need to strengthen the sense of confidentiality, in fact it has no effect, and no one can tell what the problem is.

After Gao Ming learned about this, he was of course very happy, but he kept a low profile as always. Although he doesn't particularly attach importance to this, it is a good thing for anyone to be recognized by his leaders at work.

Su Han's reaction to this matter was even more indifferent than Gao Ming. The night she heard the rumors, she just asked him in the room of Gao Ming's apartment, saying that it was true?

Gao Ming nodded and said that it was about the same. Although Qian Weidong didn't give me a clear explanation, he hinted to me that I should be very careful in all aspects recently, and don't make any mistakes.

Then Su Han didn't say anything more. This aroused Gao Ming's interest, so he asked her, Su Han, what do you think about this?

Su Han tilted his head sideways, looked at Gao Ming in a daze for a moment, and then said Then I have to ask you first, do you want to hear the truth, or is it a lie?

Gao Ming said that it is natural to listen to the truth.

Su Han said that although promotion is a good thing, is the gap between us widening?

Gao Ming shook his head disdainfully, and said It's just a big sesame official, where do you have so much careful thinking?

Su Han said, but I'm really afraid that after others know about us, they will say that I have taken a fancy to your fame, fortune and status.

Gao Ming said don't worry, Su Han. Even if others find out about us, they will only scold me, and they will definitely not say anything about you.

Su Han said, why?

Gao Ming said because, in fact, I took a big advantage, and they were jealous!

Su Han heard this, thought about it carefully, and then said Gao Ming, you seem to have a point.

Gao Ming looked at Su Han's delicate appearance, and couldn't help laughing, saying stupid, forget it!

But what no one expected was that within a few days, an earth-shattering event occurred. Someone made an anonymous post on the newspaper's intranet:

Smart, are you tired of pretending to be a decent gentleman?

Although just looking at the title can be appealing, it is nothing special, but if you look closely at the content, its shock is so strong that it will make people's eyes fall out.

The person who posted this post almost shook Gao Ming's privacy cleanly. I don't know where to get the materials, and the relationship between Gao Ming and Lin Yi, Su Han, and Chen Xiaowei, the three best women, is described quite vividly, making it difficult to distinguish the true from the fake.

The post said that the relationship between Gao Ming and Lin Yi used to be very special, and someone saw them dating in the Lili coffee bar on the side street opposite the newspaper office. also said that Chen Xiaowei and Gao Ming divorced, although the cause was Liang Laosan's farce, but it was more or less related to Su Han, and Gao Ming already knew in advance that the relationship between Chen Xiaowei and Zhu Jianguo was unclear.

But the things about Su Han in the post are basically rumors. said that the reason why Su Han was able to enter the newspaper was that Mr. Liu helped, and Gao Ming also went to Mr. Huang. Su Han has always been grateful to Gao Ming, and Gao Ming is both talented and wealthy, so Su Han will take a fancy to him.

The post became an instant sensation. When Wei Qiao learned of this, he immediately asked someone to delete it. It is said that after reading this post, his face was ugly, and he immediately called the director of the technical department to talk and asked them to quietly investigate the matter.

Gao Ming was in a good mood in the morning, because as soon as he walked into the office, he received a call from Ren Jian from BJ. Ren Jian used the mobile phone number he had just changed in BJ to report a good news to Gao Ming. Ren Jian said that the stock in their hands has been officially issued on the technology board and will definitely be listed next week. This means that Gao Ming's investment of one million will double in a blink of an eye, and if he doesn't get it right, he may become a multimillionaire.

But in an instant, Gao Ming's joy turned into shock, because he turned on the computer and saw the post as well. Immediately afterwards, Su Han also called to talk about it, and soon after putting down the phone, he came to his office angrily.

As far as the public can see, Gao Ming and Su Han reacted to the post in much the same way, and both behaved quite calmly. Gao Ming's attitude makes people feel very normal, but this time Su Han didn't overreact, which made many people in the press department not quite understand.

In fact, no one knows, what they see is only superficial. In fact, Su Han rushed into Gao Ming's office at that time, telling Gao Ming that she was going to the newspaper leaders and asking for an immediate investigation of the matter, and if necessary, she would resort to law, but Gao Ming resolutely disagreed with Su Han's actions.

Gao Ming obviously thought more and more comprehensively than Su Han. He also knew what someone's real purpose was in doing this, but if that person was found, no matter who it was, Gao Ming and Su Han would definitely be buried with him, and they would further become victims of public opinion. If we don't get this out of the way, the situation will be even more unmanageable.

To the surprise of my colleagues in the newspaper, Gao Ming is usually very good at being a person, although he never pats the leader's ass, but he should be said to be good at both the top and the bottom, and there is no obvious enemy. This matter is obviously very targeted, and it must have something to do with the fact that the party group has just held a meeting and is considering promoting him.

This is exactly what annoyed Wei Qiao, he didn't expect that everything in the newspaper office was normal on the surface, but there were so many crooked things in secret.

The investigation of the technical department quickly came to fruition, and the post turned out to be posted from Su Han's computer at 8:45 p.m. the night before. In order to ensure the security of work computers, the newspaper has made some very strict regulations, such as absolutely not allowing direct connection to the Internet, and not allowing individuals to set special passwords, so it is not difficult to open anyone's work computer.

This makes the problem seem a little simpler. It was already off work, and most of them had left the newspaper office to go home. Although there is no surveillance in the office, there is one in the lobby downstairs. If you want to investigate further, you can narrow it down even further by pulling up the video from that time period and finding the people who entered and exited the building.

But the question arises, even if you find out who this person is, what's the point? If the post says that those things are false, then according to the relevant legal provisions, it can be dealt with seriously. But what if it's true? Not only is Gao Ming's right to privacy violated, but from a legal point of view, there's nothing you can do about this person.

When Wei Qiao was having a headache about this, Gao Ming took the initiative to call him.

Gao Ming said Mr. Wei, I am Gao Ming, is it convenient for you now?

Wei Qiao said Gao Ming, please tell me something.

Gao Ming said that if you have time now, I want to talk to you.

Wei Qiao looked at his schedule and said then you come, I'll wait for you.

Not long after putting down the phone, I heard someone knocking on the door, Wei Qiao said please come in, Gao Ming gently pushed the door open and came in. Since it was the first formal meeting, Wei Qiao took the initiative to greet and shake hands with Gao Ming, and then the two sat on the sofa and talked.

Gao Ming didn't go around in circles, he went straight to the point when he opened his mouth, and said Mr. Wei, I know that you just came here to do a lot of things, so you are very busy, so I won't say kind words. I want to know, what do the newspaper leaders plan to do about today's post on the intranet?

Wei Qiao looked at Gao Ming, nodded and said, Okay, I like to be happy! Gao Ming, since you are a happy person, then tell me first, how do you want this matter to be handled?

Gao Ming said that I hope it will not be pursued, because there is no point in doing that.

Wei Qiao was surprised when he heard Gao Ming's words, and said, Oh, why do you say that?

Gao Ming smiled bitterly and said Mr. Wei, whether these things are true or false, they are all personal privacy, and the reason why I don't want to investigate is that I am afraid that the more attention the leader attaches to it, the easier it will be to attract attention, and the more hyped up this matter will be, which will be more troublesome.

Wei Qiao thought about it and said that what you said made sense, it was indeed the case.

Gao Ming said that besides, what is the point of you finding out this person? The matter has already happened, and the impact has already been caused, so I am afraid it will not help you to deal with this person.

Wei Qiao said that, shouldn't the rumor-mongers pay the price?

Gao Ming shook his head and said Mr. Wei, I will tell you the truth, the trouble is here, the post involves several people, but those things are true and false. But whether it's true or not, I'm afraid the parties don't want to make everyone know. For example, Su Han's things are all rumors, she has come to me just now, saying that she will investigate to the end, but after listening to me explain the stakes to her, she was also scared, so she didn't say anything.

Wei Qiao pondered for a moment and said, but I think, it doesn't seem like it can be just like that, right?

Gao Ming said Mr. Wei, if you empathize with me, what would you do?

Wei Qiao thought about it and said that I might hesitate, but I definitely wouldn't give up.

Gao Ming shook his head again, saying that it was because you had power in your hands, so you thought like this.

Wei Qiao still wanted to speak, but the phone on the table suddenly rang. He glanced at the caller ID, then at Gao Ming, and hesitated not to answer immediately.

Gao Ming was very interested when he saw this scene, and immediately got up to say goodbye, saying Mr. Wei, my words are finished, you are busy! I also have to hurry back to duty to read the manuscript.

Wei Qiao smiled and nodded, and Gao Ming turned around and left. Wei Qiao waited for Gao Ming to go out before picking up the phone and saying Secretary Tian, Gao Ming was here with me just now, so I didn't answer.

On the other side of the phone was Lao Tian, secretary of the newspaper's Discipline Inspection Commission, who heard Wei Qiao's words, and said, oh, what does Gao Ming himself think?

Wei Qiao explained Gao Ming's meaning, and then said Lao Tian, why don't you put this aside in advance and see how the situation develops?

Lao Tian thought about it for a moment and said I originally wanted to tell you, I went to watch the surveillance video and made a list of the people who left late yesterday in the newspaper office. Now that the situation has changed, let's not say anything, let's do it for now.
