As for Qin Lang, although he was not as smart as Wen Ling, he also realized that this seemingly simple dinner was not simple. The food was quite ordinary, the standard of a working meal. After finishing, Fang Zhicheng gently patted Qin Lang on the shoulder and whispered: "Take it easy on the essay test this afternoon."
Qin Lang didn't know why he felt a different aura from Fang Zhicheng. He originally thought that Fang Zhicheng was a little man who was protected by him, but Fang Zhicheng exuded maturity and stability in his every move, which was completely different from his previous image.
After everyone left, Wen Ling stopped Qin Lang and asked in confusion, "Qin Lang, what position does your sister's boyfriend hold in the government? I saw that everyone else at the table was very respectful to him, and Director Li even called him County Magistrate Fang..."
Qin Lang smiled awkwardly and said, "Actually, I don't know what his position is... Judging from his posture, he should be doing well."
Wen Ling looked at Qin Lang seriously, and found that he didn't seem to be lying, so she shook her head gently...
Chapter 0425: Everything is Unspoken
Dongtai's "Hundreds, Thousands, Tens of Thousands of Talents" social recruitment demonstrated Dongtai's superb work efficiency. After the essay was finished, the staff worked overtime until after eleven o'clock that night, so many candidates received the notice to participate in the re-examination the next day late at night. Early in the morning, Qin Lang saw Wen Ling, who was wearing a professional suit, among the people participating in the re-examination. She looked a little nervous, so there was a special seriousness on her young and tender face. Qin Lang walked behind her, gently patted her shoulder, and smiled: "Sure enough, you also advanced."
Wen Ling was frightened and stroked her chest. Seeing that it was Qin Lang, she rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, "Are you a ghost? How did you suddenly appear?"
Qin Lang smiled awkwardly and said, "I thought you saw mine. What's your exam number?"
Wen Ling took out her phone from her purse, flipped to the text message, and whispered, "Examination Room 5, No. 10."
Qin Lang was stunned, then smiled and said, "We are in the same examination room, but I am number 22."
Wen Ling sighed and said, "I heard that the retest is to choose one out of five. It's still very difficult to stand out."
Qin Lang shrugged and looked around. Almost everyone was wearing formal attire. He could tell that everyone came prepared. He said, "I feel a little guilty, but there's no need to worry about you, because even among so many people, you stand out."
Wen Ling shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Nonsense! Those who can pass the written test are all very capable people. I found that many graduate students came to take the exam."
Qin Lang curled his lips and said disdainfully: "What's the point of a graduate student? I don't think any of them can compare to you..."
Qin Lang's voice was a little loud when he said this, causing people around him to look at him sideways. Wen Ling felt extremely embarrassed, coughed for a while, and quickened her pace towards the lounge. Qin Lang felt that he had gone too far, so he lowered his head and followed Wen Ling closely, like a piece of taffy.
Wen Ling also sensitively noticed Qin Lang's abnormality. Although she didn't dislike Qin Lang, she always felt that if she was preparing for the exam now and was seen by the interviewer, it would definitely leave a bad impression, so she said tactfully: "Qin Lang, I'm going to review before the interview, I want to be alone..."
Qin Lang was slightly stunned and did not continue to follow Wen Ling. He found a place, took out the book, and read it for a while in a panic.
There are strict rules in the examination room. Candidates prepare for the exam in the lounge first, then go to the waiting room to look at the re-examination questions, and then enter the formal examination room ten minutes later to face the examiner with other candidates. There are five candidates in each group. This selection method can fully compare the different reactions of candidates when facing pressure and competition. It is a bit cruel, but relatively scientific and fair, because who performs well or badly can be easily compared.
After Wen Ling entered the main examination room, she was surprised. There were eight examiners in total, five of whom she had seen before. They were Li Hui and others who had been at dinner yesterday. Wen Ling had a thought in her mind: Fang Zhicheng took Qin Lang to dinner with her yesterday, not just for the sake of helping Qin Lang get into the retest.
She calmed down, smiled, and sat calmly across from everyone. Wen Ling's confident and calm temperament won the examiners' approval. First, the candidates gave their own arguments on the test questions. Today's test question was "The role of attracting investment in developing a regional export-oriented economy."
In the re-examination, the argument does not have to be original. The key is to demonstrate good eloquence and overall quality. Wen Ling has a good temperament and image, which is a good help in conquering the judges.
During the question-and-answer session, Li Hui paid special attention to Wen Ling and raised some tricky questions, such as how women should handle relationships with entrepreneurs in investment promotion. Wen Ling responded to Li Hui's answer very flexibly, with the main point being that women have unique advantages in business negotiations, but it is also a double-edged sword and needs to be measured and measured.
After this group of people left, Wen Ling and others waited anxiously in another classroom for the results, because the results of the retest could be known on the same day, and those who successfully passed the test would sign an agreement with the government in the afternoon. Three more groups came, and Wen Ling saw Qin Lang, who was still in a daze. Wen Ling took the initiative to greet him and whispered, "Are you scared too?"
Qin Lang nodded and smiled bitterly: "It's really weird. I didn't expect that many of the people who had lunch yesterday were examiners."
Wen Ling sighed: "From this, it can be seen that your sister's boyfriend is not an ordinary person. So you should have no problem this time, and you will definitely be selected."
Qin Lang waved his hands and said awkwardly: "I was confused just now. I don't know what I said during the re-examination."
Wen Ling was about to say something when a staff member came in and reported the results of the retest on the spot. Wen Ling won the first place for no reason with her extraordinary comprehensive qualities, and Qin Lang also got a high score in a confused state. In this way, after calculating the scores together with the written test scores, he also successfully entered the Merchants Group.
"First of all, I would like to say congratulations to the students who have successfully passed the social recruitment. The signing ceremony will be held in the afternoon. I hope everyone will attend on time." After informing everyone, the staff turned and left the classroom.
Qin Lang finally recovered and saw Wen Ling was still in deep thought. He asked in a low voice, "By the way, are you ready to sign the contract?"
Wen Ling smiled, relaxed his brows, and said, "Of course we will sign the contract. The Dongtai government has promised that even if we break the contract in the future, we will not be held liable for breach of contract, and we will not be threatened with personnel files. In other words, this contract is completely in our favor."
At three o'clock in the afternoon, candidates who had passed the various tests entered the county party committee meeting room one after another. Qin Lang and Wen Ling had become close during this trip to Dongtai. The two chose a seat in the corner and sat down. Suddenly, Wen Ling's eyes stopped on the podium and asked Qin Lang in confusion, "By the way, what's your sister's boyfriend's name?"
"Fang Zhicheng!" Qin Lang said with a smile.
"Look at the seat cards on the podium," Wen Ling reminded.
Qin Lang looked at the rostrum with surprise in his eyes. Although he had not yet entered the officialdom, he had heard about the officialdom's ranks. The people who could sit on the rostrum today must be at least deputy division-level cadres. Fang Zhicheng's name was on the rostrum, two or three places away from Sun Weiming in the middle.
"County Magistrate Fang, could it be that your brother-in-law is the deputy county magistrate of Dongtai?" Wen Ling finally figured out everything. Thinking of how respectful Li Hui was to Fang Zhicheng at the dinner table, it was clear that Fang Zhicheng was the deputy county magistrate, and his rank was not small. He must have been on the Standing Committee. "Qin Lang, you hid it so well. Isn't it a sure thing that you want to enter the Dongtai government?"
Qin Lang took a breath and smiled bitterly: "Wen Ling, I swear, I really didn't know he was the deputy county magistrate. I originally thought he was just a small civil servant."
Wen Ling smiled and said, "Don't worry, I was just teasing you. I can see that you don't know your brother-in-law's position, otherwise you wouldn't be so casual with him."
Qin Lang smiled bitterly and said, "My brother-in-law is really low-key. Not only me, but even my mother doesn't know about it."
As they were talking, members of the Dongtai government team slowly walked up to the stage and sat down at their seats. Although Sun Weiming was not the one who pushed for this matter, he still attended such an occasion. After all, this talent introduction project had a huge impact, and it would be inappropriate for him, the head of the party committee, not to attend.
Xing Jike sat next to Sun Weiming, with Fang Zhicheng on his right, Duan Xuan on the other side of Sun Weiming, and Organization Minister Zhu Zengzhi on Duan Xuan's right. Duan Xuan presided over the meeting, and he first introduced the basic situation of this year's talent introduction project, including the number of people who participated in the preliminary and re-examinations, as well as their educational backgrounds, and then introduced the current situation of Dongtai, emphasizing the promotion space for the talents introduced this time.
Afterwards, Sun Weiming delivered a brief speech, "Dongtai has developed very fast in the past two years. Our demand for talent can be described in one word, that is, thirsty for talent. The government needs a group of capable and high-quality young people to join the city's development, because with the progress of the times, the old administrative methods can no longer meet its needs. So we have to attract a large number of talents. This year is the first session, which has a great impact and good results. It serves as a model for the second and third sessions. But at the same time, we also have many shortcomings and imperfections in the organizational process. I hope everyone can forgive me. Finally, welcome everyone to become my colleagues."
After Sun Weiming finished speaking, Xing Jike leaned close to Fang Zhicheng's ear and whispered, "Old Sun finally tricked Duan Xuan."
Fang Zhicheng smiled faintly and said, "No matter how Sun Weiming ridiculed the immaturity of this talent introduction, Duan Xuan still left his mark in Dongtai. This is something Sun Weiming will never be able to erase."
Xing Jike sighed slowly. Fang Zhicheng was right. Sun Weiming hinted that this recruitment meeting was immature. This was actually a bit narrow-minded. It seemed to be a tactful way to comfort the candidates present, but it actually showed his inner uneasiness. In this round of confrontation, Duan Xuan won the battle.
