C55 Can'st wait

I can't wait for the Secretary General not to review it, or I'd have to go out and look for him on such a cold night.

I stuck my head out and saw that Liu Fei was in his office, so I passed the script over to him. "Director Liu, the script for today's city council meeting, Secretary General of the Municipal Committee is in the county, she said that she won't go through the script, why don't you take a look and get it signed first."

This was the usual procedure for sending out papers. Since the director was here, he would first have to examine the paper and then send it to the head office. Since the director wasn't here, the reporters could send it directly to the head office.

Since Liu Fei is currently in the office, I naturally can't cross his threshold so there's no need for me to look for trouble.

"You've worked hard!" Liu Fei raised his head and smiled at me. His two small eyes behind his lens seemed to emit a light of wisdom.

Liu Fei took the script and started to read it seriously.

I stood at the side and saw Liu Fei's eyeballs moving quickly.

I don't have the mind to ponder over Liu Fei's eyeball, I'm still immersed in the pain of Liu Yue being plotted against and unable to extricate myself.

When he finished reading, Liu Fei blinked his eyes, and then handed the script to me: "Ok, send it to the chief editor."

I took the manuscript and went to the assembly room to hand it in.

At that time, due to my absent-mindedness, I neglected an important matter, which was that Liu Fei did not sign the "Director" column.

After handing in the script, I returned to the dormitory with heavy steps. I continued to express my sorrow and self-blame in the dormitory. I continued to let my shameful and apologetic feelings flow freely …

Unexpectedly, something big happened the next day.

The next day I got up and went to work as usual.

He walked to the door of the office and saw that Liu Fei's office was locked.

Entering the office, Chen Jing was currently writing a script and greeted me: "I'm here."

"He's here!" I saw that there were only the two of us in the office, so I asked Chen Jing, "Are they busy?"

Yes, I went out to interview people and the Director Liu also came out personally. Today, all the departments are implementing the spirit of the event that was held yesterday. The Chief is going to post tomorrow. Chen Jing said.

"Oh …" I replied, feeling that something was amiss. This Liu Fei, every time I enter the office these few days, he would pass me a bunch of orders and orders. Why didn't he look for me today?

"Strange, Jiang Feng, Liu Fei is being merciful today. He let you go once, but didn't mention anything. Chen Jing smiled as he looked at me: "Today, you should get a good rest."

I sat down at my desk and casually picked up today's newspaper. I looked at the front page of today's newspaper, which I had written about the event that had liberated the mind of the city.

After reading the beginning, I suddenly jumped up. "This is bad!"

"What's wrong?" Chen Jing jumped in shock and looked up at me.

"I wrote the arrangement of the leaders incorrectly. I wrote the Chief Executive Officer behind the Mayor …" There was panic in my voice.

Two months ago, the city government made some changes. The senior deputy secretary of the city council served as Chief Executive Officer and the second deputy secretary served as Mayor. According to the rankings within and outside the Party, this Chief Executive Officer should be ranked in front of the Mayor. But yesterday, I felt dizzy and actually wrote down the name of the Mayor in front of me.

The relationship between the Chief Executive Officer and him was not harmonious, this is an open secret in the city. The Chief Executive Officer only wanted the Mayor to fail in his attempt, he was already very dissatisfied with himself being carried away.

"What should we do?" I panicked. This is not a small matter. This is a political issue. It is the biggest political issue in Jianghai City.

Chen Jing came over to take a look, and was also flustered: "Jiang Feng, your life is on the line, how can you make such a low level mistake!"

"This is great! I might have to take care of my job too!" I smacked my head in frustration, and for a moment I didn't know what to do.

Liu Yue told me many times that when interviewing meetings in the city, the most important thing is to not write the wrong leader's name and to not list the wrong leader's order. This is the political sensitivity of a reporter from a Party newspaper.

I was upset and helpless.

"However, Jiang Feng, don't worry, don't you see that the draft has been reviewed by the city leaders? If we pursue the matter further, we can push it upwards …" Chen Jing said.

"How can that be? The Secretary-General wasn't in the city last night. There's no trial."

"Then …" Chen Jing paused for a moment, then continued, "Then our newspaper also has people who want to review it. The first stage is the Director Liu, then the editor in charge of the main office, then the Head of General Rooms, the boss on duty, all of them have responsibilities … "Don't worry too much. We'll share the responsibility with everyone …"

"Director Liu …" I raised my head and suddenly remembered how Liu Fei's eyes were wandering around the night before, and how he did not sign his name on the release slip. I immediately understood, when Liu Fei read the script last night, he already realised that the name of the city leader was wrong, so he intentionally did not sign his name. He knew that I was going to be in for a storm today, so he brought people out to interview early in the morning. He purposely didn't give me an interview assignment.

What a cunning Liu Fei, I was unknowingly ambushed by him once again.

But who could blame it on? Who told me to write wrongly? No matter who was held responsible, I am the first person to bear the blame. There is no doubt about it.

The snow is getting heavier, and my mood is extremely bad. I secretly pray that the leaders of today's newspapers won't read it, and it's best if everyone doesn't read this script.

Obviously, my prayers were childish and laughable. How could the city leader not watch such a big event report?

Very quickly, I received Mei Ling's notification: "Jiang Feng, come to Secretary Ma's Office for a trip."

I knew something had happened, so I hastily went downstairs to Secretary Ma's Office.

When she reached the entrance of the Secretary Ma's Office, Mei Ling was waiting there.

Seeing me, Mei Ling's face revealed a worried and resentful expression.

I ignored her and pushed the door open.

When he entered, he found that both Deputy Chief Clerk on duty and the director were sitting on the sofa.

I sat down on a love seat and bowed my head.

Secretary Ma sat behind his desk. His face was gloomy and he did not say a word.

The atmosphere in the room was tense. Everyone had a dark expression and did not speak.

Mei Ling closed the door and entered, gently sitting down beside me.

"Where's Liu Fei?" The Secretary Ma asked Mei Ling.

"She went out to interview people," Mei Ling answered. "How about I call him back?"

"Last night, Xiao Jiang submitted the manuscript rather late, Director Liu did not read it, and did not sign on the release slip!" Head of General Rooms spoke up.

"Then forget it, I won't notify him!" The Secretary Ma said.

I completely understood Liu Fei's move. If he didn't sign, it means he didn't read it, no matter who I tell, Liu Fei would not believe it, as he doesn't have any responsibility for this matter.

"Xiao Jiang, for such an important activity in the city, why didn't you submit a script for the Secretary General of the Municipal Committee's examination?" Secretary Ma spoke with a low voice.

I hurriedly explained the reason, and then said sorrowfully, "Secretary Ma, it's all my fault. Please criticize me ruthlessly, I beg you to punish me severely!"

I looked down again.

"I also have my responsibilities. If the security is not tight, I too would request for punishment!" Head of General Rooms hurriedly said.

"I am the one who signed the contract, I am responsible for this matter, Xiao Jiang is still young, please do not punish him, I will ask the Party committee to punish me!" The white haired Deputy Chief Clerk on duty Ji spoke.

's words almost made me burst into tears. What a great senior.

Secretary Ma smoked a cigarette and said: "This is not a small matter, it is a serious political issue. The leader ranking is decided by the Party committee, how can we, the media, change it so easily? Now is not the time to look into this matter. Now is not the time to ask about the responsibility, but how do I explain this to the leaders? The city Chief Executive Officer is the old leader of our Ministry of Propaganda, and it is my Old Leader. This matter has been reported in the newspaper that I am in charge of.

Everyone knew the severity of this matter, and for a moment, no one knew how Secretary Ma would handle this matter.

"Just now, I received a call from the office of the City Council, saying that the Old Leader wanted me to go there, so I guessed that this must be the case," the Secretary Ma said. I'll go to the City Council to meet the Old Leader, Xiao Jiang, you come with me, Mei Ling, please prepare the carriage for us, we'll go right now … "

The four of us nodded our heads and agreed to the arrangement. I followed Secretary Ma downstairs, got on his car, and went straight to the City Council's office.

I remained seated in the front passenger seat, while Secretary Ma and Mei Ling sat in the back.

On the way, the Secretary Ma didn't speak, I only heard his heavy breathing.

I know that Secretary Ma must be very angry.

"Don't be angry, you're so angry …" Mei Ling said gently to the Secretary Ma: "Since this has already happened, it is best to think of a way to deal with this situation. As for that old man over there, I think we can just let him teach us a lesson.

"Mm …" Xiao Jiang, Xiao Jiang, I met you yesterday and I specifically reminded you, this script is very important. Although you have not been in the job for very long, you already have some experience in interviewing political news, why would you make such a big mistake? " Secretary Ma said in a disappointed tone.

I didn't say anything, I had nothing to say, so I simply lowered my head and took my punishment.

"Xiao Jiang is still young, so we can't completely blame him for this. Young people must slowly grow up," Mei Ling continued.

I know Mei Ling is speaking up for me. Yesterday, she let me beat her up and now she's speaking up for me.

I don't appreciate her at all when I think of the harm she had done to Liu Yue.

"Huh?" Secretary Ma sighed and did not say anything else.

At the Municipal People's University Standing Committee, he first went to the Secretary-General's office.

As expected, the reason the Old Leader came to look for the Secretary Ma was for this matter.

"The director is very angry, you need to be mentally prepared later," the secretary general told the Secretary Ma. "He is waiting for you in his office, you can go."

Secretary Ma only nodded.

The city's Chief Executive Officer's office was located opposite the Secretary-General's office. Mei Ling and I sat in the Secretary-General's office.

Secretary Ma followed the Secretary-General into the Chief Executive Officer's office. Only Mei Ling and I were left in the office.

Mei Ling moved her body closer to me and pursed her lips to look at me.
