Translator: 549690339
The Central Organization of the National Youth League, an institution known for nurturing talent. The League provided a significant proportion of administrators in national politics, starting with the Crown Prince. Although the Crown Prince no longer works in the Central Organization of the League, he still carries significant influence as a leading figure in the League.
Moreover, the current bigwigs in the League are not even the first Party Secretary of the organization yet.
If… Nie Zhenbang could establish a good relationship with this crowd. Similarly, he would undoubtedly be able to establish a good relationship with the Crown Prince. Gaining the trust of both the current and the prospective Crown Prince would be a significant benefit to his future career.
With these thoughts, Nie Zhenbang started to show excitement. He stood up and said to his grandfather, “Grandpa, I will follow your advice. Tomorrow, I will report to the Central Organization of the National Youth League.”
As Nie Zhenbang was leaving, a hint of smile appeared on the grandfather’s face. He seemed to be talking to himself, “Old Dong, Old Dong, I know your sixth daughter is working in the League. Now, whether your granddaughter can seize this opportunity depends on the relationship between these two youngsters.”
Jingcheng’s downtown, East intersection of Qianmen Street.
This is the headquarters of the National Youth League. A simple yet imposing office building, guarded by several armed policemen who stood straight. When they saw Nie Zhenbang, they saluted him and then asked, “Comrade, how can we assist you?”
Nie Zhenbang took out his letter of recommendation and said to the policeman, “Comrade, I am a recent graduate from Jingcheng University. I am here to report to work today.”
After carefully examining Nie Zhenbang’s credentials, the policeman returned his letter, and directed him to the office building, “Turn left after you enter the door, go upstairs to the second floor, the third room. That’s where the Organization and Personnel Department is located. You can complete your procedure there.”
Following the policeman’s directions, Nie Zhenbang quickly found the Organization and Personnel Department. The office door was slightly ajar. At that moment, he felt a wave of nervousness entering him.
Even though he was reincarnated, this is his first foray into politics. Despite his recollection of his previous life, he couldn’t help but feel timid.
Standing at the door, he took a few deep breaths, then started muttering to himself, “Nie Zhenbang, don’t be scared. You’re a man who has undergone rigorous military training. You can never show fear, never back down. You will never desert.”
Just as he was whispering to himself, a laughter followed by a familiar voice suddenly echoed behind him, “Nie Zhenbang, it’s been three years since I last saw you. I didn’t expect you to be as amusing as ever.”
Nie Zhenbang spun around with a start, and to his surprise exclaimed, “Dong Wan? What are you doing here?”
Upon hearing Nie Zhenbang’s words, Dong Wan’s smile turned into a clouded expression as she sneered, “Hmm, just because you can report to work here, doesn’t mean I can’t. What kind of logic is that?”
With that, Dong Wan pushed open the door and walked in. There were two desks inside the office, and as soon as they saw Dong Wan, they greeted her with smiling faces.
She glanced at Nie Zhenbang, who was still standing at the door, her eyes twinkling with amusement. His reaction was quite surprising. He had been incredibly successful in business, and his performance during his military service in the Xibei region over the past three years had also been outstanding. Besides, his university grades were praiseworthy. With such achievements under his belt, Dong Wan had to marvel at Nie Zhenbang’s talents, it seemed there wasn’t anything he couldn’t accomplish.
However, Nie Zhenbang’s nervous demeanor today took Dong Wan by surprise. At this moment, Dong Wan finally found some balance. Apparently, there were things in this world that this guy was afraid of. Seeing Nie Zhenbang still standing nervously at the door, Dong Wan spoke up: “Nie Zhenbang, come in.
What are you doing at the door? Aren’t you here to report to work?”
Hearing Dong Wan’s familiar tone, one middle-aged woman in the office began to tease Dong Wan: “Little Wan, who is this? You two seem very familiar.
Could this be…?”
As soon as Dong Wan heard this, her face turned red. Stamping her foot, she responded shyly: “Aunt Yun, what are you talking about? There’s nothing between him and me. Alright, this is the directory of the heads of the Young Pioneers in each province. There you go. I gotta go.”
Thanks to Dong Wan’s diversion, Nie Zhenbang’s nervousness gradually subsided. Now, Nie Zhenbang has returned to his usual confident and composed state. Walking into the office, he addressed the woman Dong Wan called Aunt Yun: “Hello, I am this year’s graduate from Jingcheng University, here to report to work. Here is my introduction letter. Please take a look.”
Observing the way Nie Zhenbang spoke, the middle-aged woman was somewhat impressed. He seemed to know when to advance and when to retreat, and understood the rules of the game. Judging from the way he spoke to Dong Wan just now, there appears to be more than just an acquaintance between them. Moreover, when Dong Wan called her Aunt Yun right in front of him, some people might take the opportunity to build a relationship by calling her Aunt Yun as well. However, he didn’t do that.
This impresses the middle-aged woman. That’s knowing when to advance and when to retreat. After all, her relationship with Dong Wan, doesn’t imply that Nie Zhenbang can call her the same way. Since he’s here to report for work, a clear distinction between public and private affairs is necessary. Few people understand this.
The middle-aged woman then nodded her head, accepted Nie Zhenbang’s introduction letter, and after a careful look, she took out a form from the side drawer and handed it to Nie Zhenbang: “Nie, an exceptional graduate from Jingcheng University, huh? And a graduate student under Professor Wang, plus you’re a party member. You’re indeed talented. Welcome to contribute to our Central Ministry’s work. Go ahead and fill out this form first. I’ll notify the finance department to set up your pay roll.”
They say handwriting speaks about a person, and this era was not like the future when computers would dominate. In this era, handwriting was a face card. Seeing Nie Zhenbang’s graceful, unrestricted handwriting, Aunt Yun praised: “Good job, Nie. As a top-tier graduate from Jingcheng University, your handwriting is quite good.”
Aunt Yun rose to her feet and said: “Nie, we’ve already decided on your assignment. You will be allocated to the National Youth League. Go ahead and report to them. The specifics of your work schedule, you will have to approach your leaders for that.”
Upon hearing Aunt Yun’s words, Nie Zhenbang felt his heart race again. The National Youth League? Isn’t that the place that the next Vice Chairman Mu Dingjian is currently in charge?
Following Aunt Yun, they went upstairs to the fifth floor, to a row of offices on the left. These are where the National Youth League offices are located.
At the moment, the office door is wide open. It’s a large office, with eight people working together, desks set out opposite each other. Seeing Aunt Yun, a middle-aged man about forty years old stood up with a warm smile on his face: “Why has Deputy Minister Zhou come over personally? Who’s this?”
Hearing the man’s words, Nie Zhenbang was stunned. He hadn’t expected that Aunt Yun was actually the Vice Minister of Organization’s Personnel Department. She was so approachable and unpretentious.
At this moment, Deputy Minister Zhou, or Aunt Yun as Dong Wan calls her, also laughed and said: “Old Guo, I’m here to bring some talent over to your
Youth League side. Let me introduce, this is Nie Zhenbang, a graduate from Jingcheng University.”
She turned to Nie Zhenbang and said: “Nie, this is your direct superior. Deputy
Director Guo of the Youth League Office. You’ll have to learn from and consult
Director Guo in your work.”
Nie Zhenbang was about to speak when Director Guo extended his hand with a warm smile: “Nie, welcome! From now on, we’ll be comrades in the same trench. ”
At this moment, looking at Director Guo and Aunt Yun beside him, Nie Zhenbang began to understand why his grandfather had arranged for him to join the Central Committee..
