Chapter 90: The End of Arrogantness
Chapter 90 The arrogant end Lin Yuanfang knew that his actions just now were very decent. Because in the leadership team of the management committee, although he is ranked before Wen Xiangfeng, but after all, he has just arrived today, if he does not hesitate to take the attitude of giving up who else he sits next to Zhong Fanmin, then what will others think? Will you think that he, Lin Yuanfang, doesn't know how to be humble at all, and he just announced his position here, and he can't wait to grab a seat over there?
But his humility just now was different. Wen Xiangfeng is older than him, and his qualifications in the management committee are older than him, and his humility, especially his hesitant expression, is just right, and others will know that he is out of politeness and modesty, not cowardly. As long as you have fulfilled your courtesy, and then you can do your own position, everyone will not say anything.
On the contrary, Wen Xiangfeng's performance just now was very indecent, his words were thorny, he relied on the old and sold the old and didn't say anything, and he also sat down in front of him Lin Yuanfang. You must know that at the wine table, not only is there an order of where you sit, but also the order of seating. It is very impolite for the person with a high position and the top of the ranking not to sit down, and the person behind to sit first. Wen Xiangfeng is still the leader of the management committee, and it is ridiculous and generous to make such a rude move on such an occasion.
However, Lin Yuanfang was not angry, the more rude he behaved, the more he could bring out his Lin Yuanfang's proper response. A 40-year-old deputy director with qualifications does not have a 23-year-old young director who has just taken office to understand politeness.
After the banquet began, the atmosphere became warm, and the main targets were naturally the superior "leader" Zhong Fanmin and the newly arrived deputy director Lin Yuanfang. On this occasion, Lin Yuanfang couldn't help but feel the breadth and profundity of the Chinese wine table culture, even though he had done enough preparation in advance and was ready to hide as much as possible on the wine table, but in the face of the enthusiastic attack of more than a dozen middle-level cadres of the management committee, Lin Yuanfang was also overwhelmed, fortunately, there was also a Zhong Fanmin on the side to share half of the firepower.
Wen Xiangfeng sat there straight, with a dark face, and never moved his glass except for a glass of wine to Zhong Fanmin.
Mo Yuegen made a look at Lin Yuanfang and asked him to pay tribute to Wen Xiangfeng's wine.
Lin Yuanfang knew that Mo Yuegen was also a good intention, and wanted him to ease the relationship with Wen Xiangfeng. After all, I will have to work with Wen Xiangfeng for a long time in the future, if the relationship is so stiff at the beginning, how will we work together in the future?
Now that Wen Xiangfeng doesn't take the initiative, then he Lin Yuanfang must take the initiative, and doing so will not lose his identity as Lin Yuanfang. Although he is ranked higher than Wen Xiangfeng, everyone is the deputy director, and there is no difference in rank. In addition, Wen Xiangfeng is older than him in the Xincheng District Management Committee, and he is more than 20 years older than him, and he is also his uncle's generation, and he is a twenty-three-year-old young man, and he takes the initiative to toast a glass of wine, which is also his due intention.
Besides, although Wen Xiangfeng is a bit out of shape and has a small belly, which is a little incommensurate with his identity as the deputy director of the management committee, after all, it was he Lin Yuanfang who came over to rob the work that Wen Xiangfeng was in charge of, not Wen Xiangfeng who robbed him of the work in the past. Wen Xiangfeng couldn't figure it out ideologically at this time, and it was understandable. Lin Yuanfang only hopes that through his slow contact with Wen Xiangfeng, Wen Xiangfeng can get rid of this knot in his heart. After all, if a leadership group is not united, how can it still work? What's more, when he Lin Yuanfang didn't come before, Wen Xiangfeng and Mo Yuegen cooperated very well, and there was no rumor of disunity. As soon as he takes office in the Xincheng District Management Committee, there will be discordant voices from the leadership team, what will others think? Those who know will say that it is Wen Xiangfeng's small belly and chicken intestines, and there is no demeanor that a leader should have? But what about those who don't know? Will it be said that he Lin Yuanfang is a-stirring stick? Did the villain learn that as soon as he arrived at the Xincheng District Management Committee, he disturbed the leadership team?
Therefore, Lin Yuanfang thought repeatedly in his heart, and he had to take the initiative to make a gesture, stretch out an olive branch, and go to Wen Xiangfeng to salute this glass of wine. This is not only beneficial to the leadership of the management committee, but also to himself.
Lin Yuanfang stood up and held the wine glass, stretched out in front of Mo Yuegen, and said, "Director Mo, I toast you with a glass of wine." Starting today, I will work under your leadership, and you must educate me more and care more. ”
Mo Yuegen picked up his wine glass and said with a smile: "Director Lin, don't be too polite, we will all be a family in the future, everyone will work together and unite to get the work of the new city up!" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and touched Lin Yuanfang lightly, and the two of them drank it all.
The waiter came over to fill the wine glass for Lin Yuanfang, Lin Yuanfang held the wine glass again, smiled and said to Wen Xiangfeng: "Director Wen, you are the old leader of the management committee, I have just arrived, there are many things I don't understand, and I will ask you more in the future." I toast you. ”
Wen Xiangfeng didn't look at the wine glass that Lin Yuanfang stretched out in front of him, and said: "Yes, we old people, not only are our minds and thoughts rigid, but even our cardiovascular systems are rigid, and this wine is undrinkable." Director Lin, I will not accompany you! ”
The air on the wine table froze.
Lin Yuanfang said with a smile: "Director Wen is really good at laughing, you are in your prime and in the golden period of your life, how can you talk about old age?" I think I'm experienced! Come, I honor you. ”
Wen Xiangfeng squinted at Lin Yuanfang and said, "Why aren't you old?" Didn't you just say that I was an 'old' leader? ”
Lin Yuanfang saw that everyone was looking at him, so he suppressed the anger in his heart, and said with a smile: "Director Wen, you misunderstood what I meant, I mean you are an experienced leader. I may not be very good at talking, but I do respect you from the bottom of my heart. Okay, without further ado, let's do it first! As he spoke, he raised the wine glass in his hand to Wen Xiangfeng, raised his head and drained the wine in the glass, and then looked at Wen Xiangfeng with a smile.
Wen Xiangfeng looked up to the sky and snorted, and said, "Director Lin, I see that you are trying to force my old man to drink overlord wine today!" ”
Mo Yuegen saw that the more he spoke, the more stiff he became, and he hurriedly glanced at Lin Yuanfang again, and said with a smile: "Director Lin, the toast must be in place to show your sincerity." Come on, come on, the glass just now doesn't count, now it's officially started, I'll pour you a drink. ”
Saying that, Mo Yuegen took the wine glass from the waiter's hand and filled Lin Yuanfang with a glass of wine in person, and looked at Lin Yuanfang with a smile.
Lin Yuanfang was very helpless, although it was said that Wen Xiangfeng relied on the old and sold the old and didn't know how to advance or retreat, but Mo Yuegen was the number one, stood up to play a round, and personally poured wine for him, in terms of Mo Yuegen's status, he gave Lin Yuanfang enough face. Even if Lin Yuanfang is angry with Wen Xiangfeng, he has to give Mo Yuegen some face, right?
Zhong Fanmin also played a round next to him and said, "Director Lin, yes, you can give Director Wen a cup in a down-to-earth manner." ”
Even Zhong Fanmin came out, and Lin Yuanfang was even more difficult to say, so he had to pick up the glass of wine again and stretch it out in front of Wen Xiangfeng: "I am young and inexperienced, if there is anything wrong, please criticize and correct more." ”
As a deputy director ranked before Wen Xiangfeng, Lin Yuanfang was able to put his posture so low, and anyone thought that Wen Xiangfeng should accompany Lin Yuanfang to drink this glass of wine this time. But he didn't expect Wen Xiangfeng to still look at the glass of wine in front of him, and said to Mo Yuegen with a smile: "Director Mo, Director Lin is a person who has won an international award in New York, and he can't even compare with foreign devils, can we compare with this dirt bun?" I don't dare to criticize or correct. ”
Lin Yuanfang stood there, holding a glass of wine and drinking it, not drinking it, his face turned red.
"Lao Wen, Director Lin is also sincere, you can drink this wine." Mo Yuegen looked at Wen Xiangfeng and said. He originally thought that Wen Xiangfeng, an old comrade, would have to understand the overall situation, but who knew that today he would have such a style. Knowing this, he shouldn't have hinted to Lin Yuanfang to pay tribute to Wen Xiangfeng's glass of wine in the first place. But now that it's this scene, it's too late to regret it. He could only persuade Wen Xiangfeng to drink the glass of wine in front of him, maintain a harmony on his face, and let this banquet continue.
Zhong Fanmin also said: "Director Wen, drink it, everyone is waiting!" ”
The ball was kicked to Wen Xiangfeng again.
"Well, this pine nut corn dish is good today." Wen Xiangfeng used chopsticks to hold the pine nut corn on the plate and put it in his mouth, while turning his head and said with a smile to the office director next to him. He picked up the wine glass with his left hand, elbowed it to the table, and didn't look at Lin Yuanfang, just stood there, waiting for Lin Yuanfang to clink glasses.
Wen Xiang was graceful, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and he looked like a very sunny leader, but Lin Yuanfang never thought that this cultivated leader would be able to do such a scoundrel thing in front of Mo Yuegen and Zhong Fanmin. It's a street gangster.
People respect me, I respect people. No matter how good Lin Yuanfang's temper is and how deep his cultivation is, he can't take care of the overall situation at this time, and said with a sneer: "Director Wen said that he is rigid in his thinking and cardiovascular rigidity, I really don't dare to toast you." I can't afford to drink something wrong! ”
As he spoke, he poured his wine on the floor and turned back to his seat.
Wen Xiangfeng just said that Lin Yuanfang was a small cadre with no background and no experience, and he didn't dare to have any temper no matter how he practiced him, but he didn't expect Lin Yuanfang to dare to come out and splash it.
He stood up as soon as he pressed the table, rolled up his sleeves and pointed at Lin Yuanfang and scolded, "Who are you scursing this turtle grandson?" Who do you say is cardiovascular rigid? ”
Lin Yuanfang sneered and said, "Deputy Director Wen, please pay attention to your identity and speak civilly." You just said that you were cardiovascular stiff, and I just gave it back to you. ”
"Damn, dare to scold Lao Tzu!" Wen Xiangfeng stretched out his hand and rolled up his sleeves, "Look at how Lao Tzu teaches you a lesson today!" Reaching for the bottle next to him, he was about to pounce.
"Who's going to do it!" A majestic voice came from the door of the box. Everyone turned their heads to look over, only to see Hong Xianguo, secretary of the county party committee, standing majestically at the door, and Li Chengjiang, the secretary with him, reaching out with a water cup, standing behind Hong Xianguo, full of energy and not squinting.
"Secretary Hong!" Some of the cadres of the management committee have already cried out.
Immediately afterwards, there was a chaotic sound in the box, some knocked over the plates, knocked off the chopsticks, and even the chairs turned over and hit the ground, which was simply a mess.
"Secretary Hong, hello!"
"Secretary Hong, why are you here?"
The box was steaming like boiling water, and everyone stood up, ignoring the grease on the clothes on their hands, stretched out their hands, and respectfully took care of Hong Xianguo.
Hong Xianguo ignored the middle-level cadres of the management committee, raised his legs and walked inside.
Wen Xiangfeng was carrying a wine bottle in his hand, and when he saw Hong Xianguo walking directly towards him, his breathing was almost stagnant, his heart was beating wildly, almost rushing out of his chest, and his mind was even more empty, there was nothing. Secretary Hong, why is Secretary Hong here at this time?
For a while, his hands and feet were soft, his fingers were soft, and he had no strength at all. With a click, the bottle slipped out of his hand and shattered on the ground.
Hong Xianguo didn't bother to look at Wen Xiangfeng at all, he raised his foot and stepped over the fragments of the wine bottle on the ground, directly past Wen Xiangfeng, and didn't pay attention to the hands stretched out to him by Mo Yuegen and Zhong Fanmin, but came to Lin Yuanfang's side, patted Lin Yuanfang's shoulder affectionately, and said, "Yuanfang, how do you feel on your first day in office today?" ”
"Huh?"
"Won't it?"
"How is that possible?"
There was a sound of surprise in the box, looking at the scene in front of him in disbelief, no one thought that Hong Xianguo, secretary of the county party committee, came over and came to visit Lin Yuanfang.
Mo Yuegen's heart was pounding when he stood there, although he knew that Lin Yuanfang's nomination on the Standing Committee was Secretary Hong's meaning, but he didn't expect that Secretary Hong would be so favored by Lin Yuanfang. I knew that this was the case, just now no matter what, he had to stand on Lin Yuanfang's side and fight back against Wen Xiangfeng fiercely. At that time, when Wen Xiangfeng and Lin Yuanfang clashed, although he was impartial, because Wen Xiangfeng was relatively old, he was still a little inclined to Wen Xiangfeng. But now...... It's too late to regret it, Wen Xiangfeng treated Lin Yuanfang so arrogantly just now, maybe Lin Yuanfang piggybacking on him and even he Mo Yuegen was jealous.
Wen Xiangfeng saw this amazing scene in his eyes, his legs were even weaker, and he fell to the ground with a pop. A few pieces of broken wine bottle porcelain stabbed into his buttocks, and blood flowed out immediately, but Wen Xiangfeng didn't feel a trace of pain, just looked at Hong Xianguo, who was greeting Lin Yuanfang in horror...... All the people present, including Mo Yuegen and Zhong Fanmin, no one paid attention to Wen Xiangfeng's embarrassed appearance, all their eyes were on Hong Xianguo, the secretary of the county party committee, at this time, and their heads were like marionettes, rotating with Hong Xianguo's every move.
