He chatted with Song Wendi in the coffee shop until after eleven o'clock before they parted. After watching Song Wendi leave in a car, Fang Zhicheng stood in the square with flashing neon lights and couldn't help but take two deep breaths. He could be said to have slowly integrated into Qiong Jin's life.
Although Hanzhou is only more than an hour's drive from Qiongjin, there is a big gap between the provincial capital and the local city, and the urban atmosphere is even stronger. Although it is almost dawn, there are still many men and women on the road. They are in groups of three or five, walking side by side.
Fang Zhicheng took out his cell phone while sitting in the car and flipped through the text messages. Ye Qingrou had sent him a text message thirty minutes ago, asking if he had fallen asleep. Fang Zhicheng thought about it and replied, "Go to bed quickly, it will be dawn soon."
Ye Qingrou quickly sent a text message, "It's only eleven o'clock now, and there's still a long time before dawn."
Fang Zhicheng smiled and made a call. When Ye Qingrou answered the call, her voice was a little hoarse.
Fang Zhicheng asked with concern: "Why haven't you slept yet? Are you planning to stay up late again?"
Ye Qingrou said with a grin, "How do you know? I'm playing games. I have two accounts, one male and one female. One is called Yewu Qingrou and the other is called Liewu Zhicheng. We can play together when we have time. Liewu Zhicheng's account is already level 90, and he has all the best equipment."
Fang Zhicheng smiled helplessly. Ye Qingrou had told him before that she had been playing online games recently and was a little addicted. Yewu Qingrou's account was Ye Qingrou's account, and Liewu Zhicheng's account was the one she trained for Fang Zhicheng.
Online games have been very popular in the past two years and are very attractive to young people. Occasionally, the news breaks out about many young people stealing in order to play online games.
Overseas, online games are also a very hot market. From Fang Zhicheng's perspective, he is not averse to the changes that online games have brought to society, but he also feels that guidance is needed.
Fang Zhicheng said: "You, haven't you graduated? Have you found a job? Why are you still playing games every day?"
Ye Qingrou sighed and said, "My dad asked me to take a break and go to work in his company after the summer vacation. I have also thought clearly that although with my ability, I can make a name for myself in an ordinary company within three years, I will still be working for others in the end. It is better to go to Yuanhu Group and get it done in one step."
Seeing Ye Qingrou speak so confidently, Fang Zhicheng shook his head and said, "You are still a child at heart. I am really a little worried about Mr. Ye."
Ye Qingrou changed the subject and returned to the game, saying, "By the way, you must play the game tomorrow, otherwise, I will come to your unit."
Seeing Ye Qingrou looking so serious, Fang Zhicheng asked, "What's wrong? Do you want me to play the game and kill people with you?"
Ye Qingrou smiled mysteriously and said, "I won't tell you for now. When you come online, I guarantee there will be a surprise."
The more Ye Qingrou hid the truth, the more curious Fang Zhicheng became.
After returning to the hotel and washing up, Fang Zhicheng turned on his computer, typed the name of the game into the search engine, and then clicked download. The game installation package was not very large, and Fang Zhicheng's computer configuration was pretty good, so it ran smoothly. Then, Fang Zhicheng entered the account and password that Ye Qingrou had sent him, logged in, and entered the game page.
The phone rang at this time. Ye Qingrou called and asked, "Brother, are you playing the game?"
Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "I was the one who did it."
Ye Qingrou smiled happily and asked, "Don't you think you can't say it?"
Fang Zhicheng coughed awkwardly and said, "I'm a little curious. I want to see what young people are playing nowadays."
Ye Qingrou did not ask Fang Zhicheng any more questions, and smiled and said, "You will follow my instructions and operate the account later."
Fang Zhicheng had played online games before, but he put them aside because they took up too much time and he was too busy at work. However, he still had some basic skills, so under Ye Qingrou's telephone guidance, he performed a series of actions.
The character's avatar switched across several maps and finally landed on a scene with a festive atmosphere. A dialog box popped up in the window with two options: "Confirm to get married" and "Just look at it."
Under Ye Qingrou's repeated urging, Fang Zhicheng clicked "Confirm Marriage". Fireworks suddenly burst out on the game screen, and the system message read "Congratulations to Yewu Qingrou and Liewu Zhicheng for becoming the 2899th couple on this server."
The male and female characters suddenly changed into wedding clothes, just like in ancient weddings. The male character wore a groom's hat and the female character wore a red wedding scarf. Then the male character got on a tall horse with red flowers, and the female character got into a wedding sedan. There was also a wedding procession with gongs and drums around them, parading in the scene.
In the character dialogue box, many game players sent congratulations on the marriage, it was very lively.
About ten minutes later, Ye Qingrou smiled and said, "Okay, we are married now!"
Fang Zhicheng finally understood what Ye Qingrou was up to and said with a sigh, "Is this the mysterious surprise you were talking about?"
Ye Qingrou said arrogantly: "Yes, you have married me, do you regret it?"
Fang Zhicheng knew Ye Qingrou’s friendship and whispered, “Xiaorou, you are so stupid.”
Ye Qingrou was silent for a long time while holding the phone, and then she said slowly: "Yes, I am really stupid. I know that you will not marry me in real life. But it is the same through the game. Now, you and I got married first. In terms of seniority, I am your first wife and she is your second wife."
At this point, she changed her tone and smiled, "Some people say that physical cheating is not scary, but mental cheating is scary. I want you to cheat mentally. So what if that woman marries you? I want you to miss me and think about me in your heart."
Fang Zhicheng knew that Ye Qingrou's unreasonable words were full of affection for him. He let out a long sigh and said with a smile: "In the future, I will log in to the game when I am free, but I am afraid I can't accompany you for too long."
Ye Qingrou seemed very happy. Although we were thousands of miles apart, her joy could be heard over the phone. "Then you have a deal. You have to be online every day, otherwise I won't forgive you."
Fang Zhicheng agreed to Ye Qingrou perfunctorily and made up his mind to log into the game whenever he had free time every day.
Before they knew it, it was already one o'clock in the morning and Ye Qingrou seemed not sleepy yet. Fang Zhicheng sent Ye Qingrou a message in the game and then quit the game.
…
Fang Zhicheng and Qi Yun walked towards Coaster together. There were more than ten people in the group. This was a supervision action led by the Supervision Office to conduct grassroots research on provincial agencies. Fang Zhicheng participated in this action as a member of the supervision team. Of course, his identity was just an ordinary supervisor, which was a level lower than Qi Yun. However, the accompanying staff saw that Qi Yun looked at Fang Zhicheng differently, so they were very polite to Fang Zhicheng.
Fang Zhicheng is an outlier in this group, because the other members are from the Organization Department, Discipline Inspection Commission, Propaganda Department and other departments, while Fang Zhicheng is from the Development and Reform Commission, which seems a bit abrupt. However, people familiar with the situation know that Fang Zhicheng is actually the fuse of this grassroots investigation, and he is also the person personally named by Governor Wei Qun to join the supervision group.
The supervision team had previously had two collective actions, and Fang Zhicheng had asked Shang Yan to participate in his place, citing his busy work schedule. However, for today's action, Qi Yun insisted that he must participate in person, so Fang Zhicheng had no choice but to follow her. After all, it would not be a good idea to have subordinates replace him every time.
Today, we mainly conducted random inspections on the Education Department and the Transportation Department. We went to the Education Department in the morning. The Education Department still attaches great importance to the call of the Provincial Party Committee. Twelve division-level cadres were sent to local positions, including four division-level cadres and eight deputy division-level cadres, to take charge of the front-line work of education in the local areas.
Ten of the twelve cadres from the Education Department rushed to Qiongjin from their places of temporary assignment to give their work reports. Judging from the speeches of the cadres, the Education Department attaches great importance to cadres going to the grassroots for research and implements it very thoroughly, not only for research, but also for cadres to take up temporary assignments in local areas, and at the same time seconding outstanding cadres from the grassroots to the provincial department for learning.
The time for cadres to serve on secondment is not too long, generally about half a year. If nothing unexpected happens, they will be valued at the local level. At the same time, the local level will make full use of the resources of provincial and departmental cadres and strive for more benefits for the local level. Local cadres seconded to provincial and departmental departments can also use this time to build up personal connections in the provincial and departmental departments. Even if they return to their original positions in the future and go to the Education Department again, they will be very familiar with the work process there.
