Chapter 22: The Opportunity to Shine

General Affairs Office.

The office was dead silence after Deputy Director Li left.Zhou Changchun frowned and rubbed his forehead. He was looked through thedocument in his hand and then looked around the office. "This is about the sameas last time. Bureau Chief Yang did not give any specific instructions. Xiao Tan?"

Tan Limei, who had never complained about her work looked atZhou Changchun pitifully. "Chief Zhou, please let me off."

Zhou Changchun gave some encouragement: "Writing speecheshave always been your job. As a university graduate, it should be an easy task.You can't expect me or Old Yan to write it, do you?"

Tan Limei sighed: "Chief Zhou, you also know that BureauChief Yang's expectations were so high.The last time, Sis Chang, Guo Panwei and I had spent 2 days on his speech. Wewrote 6 versions, and he did not use anyof them. I was still scolded by him. I... I..."

Zhou Changchun interrupted: "Bureau Chief Yang told me thathe has high hopes for you. This time, you should put in more effort."

Tan Limei lowered her head and replied reluctantly: "Fine. Iwill try."

Zhou Changchun looked at Guo Panwei and the rest: "Panwei,Xiao Chang and Shunjie, all of you will also write a draft. Do your best."

Changjuan immediately said: "Sir, I am not good at writing.Bureau Chief Yang will surely not use my draft.

Guo Shunjie also said: "Chief Zhou, I..."

Zhou Changchun was slightly pissed and knocked on the desk:"Look at all of you. What are all of you trying to do? No matter how difficultthis task is, all of you still have to do it. This is your job! Start workingnow and tomorrow send the drafts to Bureau Chief Yang." Zhou Changchun was alsoafraid of Bureau Chief Yang. Bureau Chief Yang was not satisfied with theGeneral Affairs Office's drafts the previous time. Not only the staff workerswere scolded, even Li Qing and he werereprimanded. This was why Li Qing and Zhou Changchun were troubled when theyknew Bureau Chief Yang wanted them to write out his speech again.

After work.

Dong Xuebing walked up to Tan Limei: "Tan Zhi, let's leavetogether."

Tan Limei listlessly sighed: "What bus are you taking?"

Tan Limei did not say anything and returned to her desk andstarted sobbing.

Zhou Changchun understood immediately. She must be scoldedby Bureau Chief Yang too. Sighed... What's wrong? How come no one could write adraft that can appease Bureau Chief Yang? If this carries on, Bureau Chief Yangwill think that the General AffairsOffice 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 TanLimei.

Zhou Changchun rubbed his temples and slowly walked out:"Bureau Chief Yang said that the City Bureau's meeting has been brought forwardto tomorrow. So, no matter what, he wants to see the speech today. Let's do ourbest and write out a speech which meetshis requirements. Go through the first drafts and see if we had missed outanything."

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. Butthis is the task given to us by the higher-ups. We must complete it. Let's putour 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 DongXuebing slowly stood up.

Zhou Changchun looked at him: "Oh? Xiao Dong have an idea?"

"Huh? It's not what idea." Dong Xuebing smiledembarrassedly. "Chief Zhou, if there are really no other ways, can I try?"

"You?" Zhou Changchun paused for a while. "You know how towrite speeches?"

Dong Xuebing does not dare to claim that he was good atwriting 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 thedrafts written by the experts from the office were not accepted by Bureau ChiefYang, 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!
