Power is an addictive thing, more tempting than drugs within the system. It can be naughty sometimes, but it doesn’t mean that the tighter you hold it, the more it belongs to you.
The third uncle returned to Beijing for a meeting this time with the intention of taking a step back to expand the world, but in the end he inexplicably took it to a higher level.
When Li Muye received the news, he was in the office of the director of the Special Investigation Office reviewing the newly compiled list of key supervisory figures compiled by the Confidential Office. Suddenly I heard this not too surprising but unexpected news on TV.
Why did this matter turn around
Li Muye couldn't figure it out, so he called Chen Binghui, who was more enlightened, and asked him for advice.
"Politics is a matter of balance." Chen Binghui gave a vague answer: "The same goes for building a country. Some people are good at fighting, while others are good at building. The second sister belongs to the former, and her elder My classmate is a typical example of the latter. The matters involved here are too wide-ranging. From the perspective of those of us who do specific work, there is no need to make everything so clear and concise. We serve the country and the people. It’s enough to know that.”
Li Muye said: "I mainly don't understand what Second Sister Chen means."
Chen Binghui said: "What your mother means is actually very simple. She wants to tell you that her authority is not consistent with her position. She has made some sacrifices this time, which can even affect the political fate of her old classmate." He added: "Of course, this has a lot to do with her old classmate taking the initiative to take a step back."
A bachelor will be revealed at a glance, but a stubborn person cannot be beaten back with a stick. Li Muye understood as soon as she heard it. Second Sister Chen’s contribution, influence and role were great. Her old classmate was also a very powerful person. As long as she and her old classmate were willing to show their attitude. , the superiors are still willing to use them.
"Since I have such great influence, why were you almost kicked out before?" Li Muye asked in confusion.
Chen Binghui said: "She is a person of faith and is unwilling to violate the beliefs and principles she has established in the past. In addition, she does not want to conflict with me head-on. But in the end she found a way to return. We never fought her."
Li Muye corrected him: "You lost. I was not involved at all. If one day the matter is revealed, it will all be your responsibility."
Chen Binghui was too lazy to argue with this unloyal family member, and said: "Second sister is starting to exert her strength. It seems that she wants to force us to retreat. What are your plans?"
Li Muye thought for a while and said: "This official title actually doesn't matter to me, but if I take this step back, I won't be able to stay by her side anymore, and many people around me like to be specially assigned to this job." I’m on an errand, so no matter what, I still want to stick to it.”
"Okay, as expected." Chen Binghui said: "As long as you don't remove the ladder, I will support you to the end!" He also said: "The wind direction within the safety committee is a bit strange these days. You should be more careful yourself and don't be found by others. Something wrong."
"What happened?" Li Muye felt that there was something in Brother Ah Hui's words.
Chen Binghui said: "There are indeed some voices questioning you, but I can still stand it. The key is that you handled the Longmen case beautifully, which gave me the confidence to support you. Next, as long as you complete the finishing work Done well, no one can touch you."
"Is it related to my mother?" Li Muye took it for granted.
"You are familiar with the world, but not the officialdom. Do you still need your mother to fan the flames for this kind of thing? If the top makes a move to adjust the position, the bottom will know which way the wind should blow. In this regard, these people's understanding is better than You are much taller." "I understand." Li Muye sighed and said, "She is trying to squeeze me out by rolling her over."
Chen Binghui said: "As I said before, as long as you are strong enough, no one can squeeze you out." After saying that, he hung up the phone.
It seems that the case of looking for the remnants of Longmen must be concluded as soon as possible.
These days, various functional departments within the Special Investigation Office are busy working on this case. Relevant units have provided a lot of help, but the effect is not obvious. People like Fengjian Xiaohe Gui want to hide, and it is impossible for ordinary people to find them. The reason why I wanted to leave something behind that day was to leave a clue.
There were footsteps outside the door. The person stopped and stood at the door, then knocked lightly.
Li Muye went over to open the door and saw two people standing at the door. One was in his forties, wearing a Chinese tunic suit, a short haircut, a Chinese character face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a high nose, a mustache, red lips and white teeth, and a bright and powerful eye. year man. The other one is in his thirties, has a tile face, a hooked nose, ugly appearance and fierce eyes.
"This is Director Li." The middle-aged man took the initiative to introduce himself: "I am Zhang Hongyu, and this is my junior brother Shi Hongjie. I have been ordered to come to the special registration office."
What is supposed to come will come sooner or later. This middle-aged man is not tall, but his bearing is that of Yuan Ting Yue Zhi. There is no such figure in the civil and military rankings of Jianghu, but Brother Xiaoye can tell at a glance that this man is very powerful. It is hard to say how good his physical skills are, but how energetic he is. But it is at the Grandmaster level. The man named Shi next to him was a level worse than him.
The surname Zhang is the surname of the head of Tianshitang. This person has eyes like a bright lamp and has a long aura. He is probably an outsider who is proficient in some alchemy.
Li Muye nodded and said, "It turns out that Secretary Zhang and Deputy Director Shi have arrived. Shouldn't there be Deputy Director Zhao as well?"
Zhang Hongyu said: "Comrade Zhao Dengyun left for Gansu and Shaanxi. He left in a hurry. He asked me to report to Director Li."
"Going to Ganshan?" Li Muye smiled slightly and asked, "Why are you so anxious?"
Zhang Hongyu said: "Overnight, a large section of dry water appeared in the lower reaches of the river during the flood season. Something was fishy. The comrades from the Religious Affairs Office informed us to send people to cooperate. Comrade Zhao Dengyun was originally from the Religious Affairs Office. He set off after receiving the notice. You hadn't returned to Beijing at that time, and the notice came in a hurry, so... "
"Okay, Secretary Zhang has made it clear enough." Li Muye said: "It seems that the situation is probably related to the remnants of Xunlongmen who slipped through the net. Our Deputy Director Zhao will have to work hard. Do you have his contact information?"
"It has been reported to the confidential room in accordance with organizational procedures." Zhang Hongyu said: "The contact code is 04, behind Deputy Director Ye."
As a special work department, the Special Operations Office has developed a set of fairly strict rules and regulations that have been copied from other similar units. Li Muye's previous management style was relatively gang-like. The first thing Zhang Hongyu did after arriving was to formalize the system.
"Where did Secretary Zhang work before coming here?" Li Muye asked casually.
The archives room has relevant materials for all personnel, and as the director, he has direct access rights. Asking this is actually against the rules. Li Muye knowingly wanted to provoke the rules and regulations that Secretary Zhang valued.
Zhang Hongyu was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I was transferred from the Foreign Affairs Bureau, and I worked at the Tokyo Consulate for a period of time."
Li Muye looked at Shi Hongjie again and asked, "Where is Deputy Director Shi?"
Shi Hongjie said: "Director Li, it is very inappropriate for you to ask this. We are a unit with the highest level of confidentiality, and members are subject to discipline when talking to each other. As the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission of the Special Investigation Office, I have the right to correct your inappropriate behavior. The way I work, if you need my personal work history, you can check the files from the HR department. From elementary school to now, every step is clearly recorded."
This guy was neither salty nor bland, giving Brother Xiaoye a bowl of rejection.
Li Muye swallowed it calmly and said, "I came from a rough background, and I'm used to speaking and doing things casually. I still can't get used to the rules and disciplines. If there's anything wrong with me, The two of you still need to correct it in time. When it comes to these rules, as the director of the Special Task Force, I have a few words to say to you."
Zhang Hongyu's eyes flashed with brilliance, he nodded and said: "Director Li, please speak."
"There isn't much content, just three." Li Muye gestured with three fingers and said: "First, the main function of our special task force is to deal with some foreign people at home and abroad. The nature of the work is completely different from that of the foreign affairs department. Sometimes it is necessary to use some unconventional means, which I hope you two can adapt to as soon as possible; secondly, the funding sources of the special task force mainly come from two aspects, the allocation from above and the sponsorship from some social groups that I personally found. The allocation of funds is managed by you, Lao Zhang, and you have the right to supervise other aspects, but you must first obtain my consent for control and use; thirdly, the weapons research and development department was built by Lao Ye... "
"Director Li, I was transferred here to be mainly responsible for technical matters." Shi Hongjie interrupted Li Muye and reminded him. The implication is that Brother Ono's third rule cannot be established. Judging from the guy's expression, he probably doesn't agree with the second one either.
"Deputy Director Shi, you have a very bad habit." Li Muye said with a displeased look: "You interrupted me before I finished speaking. As a subordinate, you lack the most basic respect for me, the director. , if this kind of thing happens in the Jianghu portal, you have to follow some rules. Even if we are a regular unit, your behavior is very rude. Is this how you talked to your superiors in your previous unit? Or was it that you were in the previous unit? When you were learning martial arts as a master, did you learn the rules from your master’s wife?”
Shi Hongjie's expression suddenly changed, and he said: "Director Li, please be careful with your words. Even as a superior, you have no right to insult my disciple's or my personality!"
"Fuck your personality and power!" Li Muye stared at him with squinted eyes, and suddenly changed his face, domineeringly: "You work under me and you still don't give me face, how can you treat me as a vegetarian? Monk?"
"Li Muye, this is the Special Operations Office directly under the General Staff. Your identity is the director of the Special Operations Office at the department level!" Shi Hongjie's voice raised an octave and shouted: "You are not a gangster leader in the world. You are full of foul language. Very inappropriate!”
"Fuck you, it's inappropriate." Li Muye suddenly raised his hand and gave him a big slap in the face, saying, "I hate you the most who talks so much about rules and disciplines, but in fact, you are such a stinky person below. Get lost, there is no shortage of colorless idiots like you in the special department, go back to where you came from!"
The scene suddenly came to a standstill. Shi Hongjie covered his face and was about to explode in anger, but he knew that Brother Xiaoye was far more powerful than him. If he wanted to explode on the spot, he would only be humiliating himself. He came with a mission, but he didn't expect that the trouble would reach this point when they met. Although Li Muye was wrong, it was not a big mistake after all. It could be explained simply and directly by saying that he was born in a gangster and acted recklessly.
Zhang Hongyu was about to speak, but Li Muye waved his hand, stopped him, and rushed to say: "Lao Zhang, please comment, are there such subordinates who set rules for their direct leaders when they first arrived in the new unit? They don't even say anything. Let me finish, and then you will give me advice on my work arrangements. Do you think I can use such a person?" (End of Chapter)
