Chen Qingdong was stunned for a moment and asked, "Killer feature?"

Yan Minglei nodded firmly and said, "Killer." ”

Chen Qingdong looked at Yan Minglei's serious appearance, and couldn't help crying and laughing, and asked, "What killer feature?"

Yan Minglei was silent again.

Chen Qingdong hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Ming Lei, I will definitely keep your affairs secret." ”

Yan Minglei made another psychological struggle, seemed to have made up his mind, and said: "Okay, Qingdong, I believe in you." Actually, I sent a letter thanking me for my situation to the Huaihai Evening News. Qingdong, you think, if the Huaihai Evening News publishes my letter, or sends another reporter to give me an exclusive interview, I will suddenly become the focus of attention, and at that time, let alone our town government, even the county government will have to come and negotiate with me to meet my demands. Qingdong, are you right?"

When Yan Minglei said the last sentence, his eyes were full of fiery expectation, and he seemed to want to hear a "right" word from Chen Qingdong's mouth.

Although he had never been in a newspaper office, he also knew that the Huaihai Evening News was a provincial-level newspaper and could also be called the mouthpiece of the provincial party committee and government, and once he spoke out, he was representing the official, so how could he casually publish Yan Minglei's letter? Yan Minglei's idea was too simple and too taken for granted, as if he had sent the letter and it would be published, and he even kept saying that this was his "killer feature." What a naivety!

However, Chen Qingdong really couldn't bear to hit Yan Minglei's enthusiasm at this time, because Chen Qingdong knew very well that although Yan Minglei's idea was a little unrealistic, in terms of the desire to be an official and the desire to have power, Yan Minglei was actually very similar to himself, but he was now moving towards his dream step by step, and Yan Minglei was just creating a castle in the air for himself and painting cakes to satisfy his hunger.

"Minglei, there is some truth in your thoughts...... Chen Qingdong said carefully, "It's just that it's hard to say whether the Huaihai Evening News will publish your letter and pay attention to your situation." ”

Yan Minglei said a little excitedly: "I understand what you said, and I didn't think that writing a letter to Huaihai Daily would be noticed, but I also have a way." ”

"Do you still have a way, what way?" Chen Qingdong asked, although he didn't know what Yan Minglei said, but subconsciously felt that Yan Minglei's method was not very reliable.

Yan Minglei said: "Actually, I have consulted an old petitioner before, and he also taught me this method. That is, I wrote letters to the Huaihai Evening News over and over again, and at the same time, I also had to continue to petition the city and the province, if I could make any sensational incidents, maybe the Huaihai Evening News would pay attention to my situation. As long as the Huaihai Evening News gives me an exclusive interview, when I negotiate with our government, they will consider my request!"

After finishing speaking, Yan Minglei seemed to have worked in this way, his excited eyes glowed, and he admonished: "Qingdong, what I told you, don't say it outside." ”

Chen Qingdong looked at Yan Minglei and suddenly felt a kind of sadness.

To be honest, he thinks that if Yan Minglei really persevers as he says, maybe it will really have any effect, not to mention whether the government will negotiate for him and meet his requirements, Huaihai Evening News If someone notices that someone is so persistent in writing to them about their situation, they may really pay some attention.

Chen Qingdong feels sad that Yan Minglei's behavior seems crazy, but since Yan Minglei regards hiring cadres and even being an official as his entire pursuit, then in the case that he has no way to apply for the civil service examination, no way, no backer, this may be the best way Yan Minglei can think of, not hesitating to fiercely oppose the government, but the ultimate goal is to enter the government and become a member of the system, which is really funny and heroic!

Under today's system, it is so difficult for a poor person at the bottom of society to chase his dreams!

Chen Qingdong didn't have the meaning of laughing at Yan Minglei just now, and said sincerely: "Minglei, this approach of yours may be useful, but it will definitely take a lot of effort, time and energy, and I don't know when I will succeed......

Yan Minglei smiled faintly and said, "I'll do this for the rest of my life, anyway, I don't have anything else to do besides this, maybe the last thing I lack now is time." ”

Chen Qingdong didn't say anything anymore, stood up, and said, "Minglei, I wish you success." ”

Yan Minglei also stood up and said seriously: "Thank you." ”

"Okay, I'll go back. Chen Qingdong said, "Let's talk another day." ”

"Let's stay for a meal and then go. Yan Minglei said politely.

"Hehe, forget it, there's something to do when you go back, let's do it another day. Chen Qingdong said.

Yan Minglei didn't persuade much, and said: "Okay, you're busy with work, so I won't force you to stay." ”

Yan Minglei sent Chen Qingdong to the door, Chen Qingdong thought about it and said: "Minglei, there is a sentence that may not be suitable for you, but after thinking about it, I still told you well." ”

Yan Minglei didn't speak, just looked at Chen Qingdong quietly.

Chen Qingdong said: "Ming Lei, there are all walks of life in this society, no matter which industry, in fact, they can be mixed, and they don't necessarily have to be officials. ”

Yan Minglei smiled faintly after hearing this, and after a while, he said, "Qingdong, I understand, thank you." ”

Chen Qingdong looked at Yan Minglei and sighed in his heart, if he could figure it out because he heard his own words, then he would not have drilled into this bull's horn.

However, Chen Qingdong still hopes in his heart that Yan Minglei can really figure it out and not waste his precious life on this road that is destined to be full of difficulties.

After leaving Yan Minglei's house, Chen Qingdong's mood was still a little heavy. This heaviness is not because he failed to persuade Yan Minglei to give up petitioning, but because he saw his shadow in Yan Minglei.

The former self was also as obsessed as Yan Minglei, betting on time and clarity, participating in a doomed competition, looking forward to one day being able to enter the air pavilion in his fantasy and get his own medal, but in the end he was lost in the journey and lost everything.

Fortunately, I have now been given another chance to participate, and this time I have finally figured out the rules and unspoken rules of this marathon.

However, doesn't Yan Minglei understand these truths? Maybe he also understands, but there is a world of difference between a simple understanding and a deep understanding of the bone marrow. If you want to make up for this gap, you can only rely on your own understanding after your own head is broken and bleeding, and the advice of others is destined to have little effect.

After returning to the town government, Chen Qingdong did not report the situation directly to Hao Shuyong, but came to his office, picked up his notebook and wrote a diary, recording the understanding he gained from communicating with Chen Feng and Yan Minglei in the past two days.

After writing, Chen Qingdong put down his pen, and suddenly remembered that when Luo Xiaolou called him a few days ago, he told himself that Li Xiaolu had not forgotten himself now, and he still had some illusions about himself, and he also advised himself to cut the mess as soon as possible, either to fall in love with Li Xiaolu, or to cut the mess quickly.

Thinking of this, Chen Qingdong couldn't help but smile bitterly, I really don't know where I got my charm to make such an excellent girl like Li Xiaolu think about herself so much.

Perhaps, although Li Xiaolu has now joined the work, her heart may not have come out of the ivory tower of the university!

When I was in college, I was really good and sunny, but after entering the society, these lights have actually disappeared, but Li Xiaolu has not discovered it yet.

And Li Xiaolu is on such a platform, and with the change of time, with the growth of her vision, she will definitely see and know a lot of successful people who are much better than herself, and when the time comes, I am afraid that her charm in her eyes will disappear!

Chen Qingdong also realized the huge gap between his family background and Li Xiaolu, and he was very unconfident in Li Xiaolu's mental maturity, so he decisively rejected Li Xiaolu's love, and chose to climb up step by step according to his own path, although this is relatively slow, but after all, it is safe.

Chen Qingdong didn't want to take any risks on his career.

In addition, he doesn't want to be sorry for his girlfriend, Zhang Meng.

However, as for what Luo Xiaolou said, let him cut through the mess with Li Xiaolu quickly and cut off contact, but Chen Qingdong didn't want to do it.

Chen Qingdong forced himself to think that the reason why he was unwilling to break off with Li Xiaolu was because he still thought that one day, he might be able to use Li Xiaolu's strong family background or Li Xiaolu's media advantage in Huaihai Evening News.

But is it really just this reason? Doesn't it have anything to do with love at all? Doesn't it have anything to do with a man's possessiveness? Doesn't it have anything to do with the unforgettable memories brought about by the melting of water with Li Xiaolu that night?

Chen Qingdong knew that he couldn't face his heart and answer this question.

Thinking about it, Chen Qingdong couldn't help but feel confused, and subconsciously picked up the phone and dialed Li Xiaolu's mobile phone number.

When he went to Jingjiang some time ago, Li Xiaolu wrote this phone number on his arm, and later he washed off the number with water, but this string of numbers has been imprinted in his mind like a brand since then, and it will last for a long time!
