Hearing Zhou Bin's words, Liu Changyuan was overjoyed.
The last time he said this, he had been promoted from the remote village of Panxiang to the current deputy director of the County Public Security Bureau.
So what about this time?
I couldn't help but think about it.
"Hey, Uncle Liu, you've come to your senses. What good things are you thinking about? Your mouth is almost watering."
Zhou Bin was speechless when he saw his useless look.
I thought that becoming a deputy director would make me a lot better, but now I see that I am still the same.
But what Zhou Bin didn't know was that Liu Changyuan was also like this in front of him.
In the eyes of outsiders, Deputy Bureau Liu’s leadership is quite impressive!
Ignoring his teasing, Liu Changyuan couldn't wait, "Tell me quickly, what opportunity is there? What should I do?"
"It's very simple, make friends with the old director!"
Direct, very concise and concise.
"That's it?"
Liu Changyuan didn't understand.
"Yes, that's it."
Zhou Bin's attitude remained firm.
Seeing that he didn't understand, he explained.
"Uncle Liu, if you are content with the status quo, then I would suggest dealing with Hu Chao as you just planned. However, if you want to continue making progress, you cannot handle it this way."
"Why is this? If you want to make progress, can't you have your own team?"
"Of course not," Zhou Bin answered equally simply, "Before making any decision, we must proceed from our own situation, just like Hu Chao's handling this time."
After looking at him, Zhou Bin smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Liu, you are the deputy director in charge of the security brigade, and Hu Chao is your subordinate. He can handle it by himself. There is no problem at all.
But, if uncle, you report this matter to the old director and ask him for instructions to deal with it later, what do you think the result will be?"
Having said this, Zhou Bin smiled mysteriously.
Without waiting for his answer, he continued: "According to what you said about the old director's current handling style, there is a high probability that he will let you handle it yourself, right?"
"It should be like this."
Liu Changyuan thought for a while and said.
"Well, you can do what you want at this time," and then he solemnly reminded, "Remember, after handling the matter, you must go to the old director to report the situation."
Still worried, he warned again, "In the future, everything that requires the director's nod must not be left behind, and must be reported to for instructions. This is very important."
"Xiao Bin, do you mean to ask me to join the old director?"
"The old director is about to retire. Is it necessary?"
Zhou Bin was extremely certain about this, "It is very necessary."
"Do you think that promotion to director is decided by the superiors and has nothing to do with the old director, right?"
Liu Changyuan nodded, "Isn't it?"
"It's definitely not that simple."
Seeing that he still didn't understand, he couldn't help but complain, "Uncle Liu, have you forgotten how you became the deputy director?"
"I did it because Mr. Xu spoke for me..."
Halfway through the words, I suddenly realized.
"I see."
Liu Changyuan slapped his thigh, "You mean the old director might be someone like Mr. Xu?"
"Very possible."
Zhou Bin smiled slightly, "Although I don't know how powerful the old director is, but he has come from the chaotic era to today. No one should be underestimated. Even if the old director doesn't do anything, he must be respected.
Remember one sentence, the peak produces false support, and the dusk witnesses the true apostle.
Some people retreat and become stronger.
Mr. Xu is like this, and I think the old director should be like this too.
When a hero is in his twilight years, it is when he cares most about other people's attitudes towards him.
Ask for instructions frequently, report frequently, and be a good and qualified subordinate.
As time goes by, others become more and more dismissive, but we become more respectful.
When the old director really retires, does he still need to consider who he would rather take his place?
And with the prestige of the old director, will he be able to express his opinions to the superiors like Mr. Xu?
If the old director makes it clear that he likes you more, will the higher-ups favor you because of the old director's opinion?"
Zhou Bin expressed all his considerations in one breath.
After hearing these words, Liu Changyuan understood everything.
"Xiao Bin, you are so thoughtful!"
Then he became a little worried again, "We can consider it, but do you think the other deputy directors will also realize this?"
"I think it should be the same."
Zhou Bin is not blindly optimistic about this. He can think of these things and just take advantage of the opportunity to be reborn.
Let him have a perspective that transcends this era and nearly twenty years.
But the most indispensable thing in the world is smart people, especially in the officialdom, there are more smart people.
When Liu Changyuan heard this, he was a little worried, "In that case, I'm afraid I can't compete with them."
"Uncle Liu, don't worry, they don't have the advantage you have."
Zhou Bin seemed very confident about this.
"Advantage?"
"What advantages do I have?"
Liu Changyuan was almost fooled by him.
"Let's not talk about whether they can persevere. Even if they can, we can only draw a tie on the old director's side. But don't forget, we have an extra Mr. Xu, and they don't."
Having said this, Zhou Bin smiled disdainfully, "It's not that I underestimate them. Judging from what Uncle Liu just said, those deputy directors rarely trouble the old director at work, otherwise the old director wouldn't be so free."
Liu Changyuan thought about his work arrangements these days, and found that this was indeed the case.
"Yes, the situation is similar to what you said. Every time the bureau meets, it is the first time they report to the old director on what they are handling."
Zhou Bin was not surprised by this result.
Rights are the easiest thing for people to get lost in. It is easy to pick up, but very difficult to put down.
Accustomed to a life of decision-making, few people are willing to find themselves an emperor to take care of them exclusively.
I'm afraid it will be difficult to get those deputy directors to give up their power.
Even if they know that doing so is good for themselves.
But it is too difficult for them to let go of the rights they have in front of them and pursue an illusory possibility.
Short-term interests and long-term plans are contradictory and conflicting with each other most of the time.
The choice of most people is often based on immediate interests.
"It seems like they don't have much impression left in the old director's mind. You're right, my chance has indeed come!"
Zhou Bin's analysis allowed him to thoroughly understand the situation of the enemy and ourselves and clarify the direction.
"I don't need to say more about what happens next. I believe Uncle Liu can handle it well."
At this point, Zhou Bin joked again, "Maybe in a few years, I should call myself Director Liu."
"Don't talk nonsense, you haven't even written your horoscope yet, it's early!"
Although he said this, the boss grinned and kept laughing.
All joking aside, Zhou Bin did feel somewhat confident.
Publicly and privately, he hoped that Liu Changyuan could reach a higher level.
Considering that his current position as deputy director is quite impressive.
I silently weighed it in my mind, "It's time to open a barbecue food stall in the county."
When Zhou Bin thought of food stalls, he thought of Mr. Sun, the gatekeeper he met in the county town.
Looking at his relationship with Mr. Xu, this is not a simple person.
Zhou Bin plans to visit again then.
"This county is getting more and more interesting. Why didn't you discover it in the previous life?"
However, no matter how urgent the matter was at this time, Zhou Bin could put it aside.
Tonight he was going to do something important in his life.
