Rebirth of the Rising Sun

Dongfangzhu, who had been competitive and even concerned about her reputation since she was a child, originally thought that coming to the capital from Kyoto would give her a chance to realize her ambitions. She thought that with her status as a genuine Kyoto university student, she would definitely be able to create her own career here. However, all of this was destroyed in an instant because of this piece of paper.

This would be written into her personal file. When she went to other units in the future, those people would know that she had been expelled from the Organization Department of the Capital Province. It was conceivable how much influence this would have on her. Thinking that she would have to work with such a stain on her back for the rest of her life, she felt ashamed to face people and her future was bleak.

A man drove to a park. In the car, Dongfang Zhu shed tears of grievance. Until now, she still doesn't think she did anything wrong.

She didn't know how much time had passed, but the tears on her face gradually dried up. Then she remembered that she still had a father. After all, her father was a member of the provincial standing committee. Even if he could not go back to work, it would be a good thing to find a way to erase this stain in her file.

Taking out his cell phone, Dongfang Zhu called his father Dongfang Renliang.

Dongfang Renliang was sulking in his own office at this time. When he came to work this morning, he found that something was wrong.

In the past, when Dongfang Renliang arrived at the office, there would always be a long line of United Front cadres lining up to report on their work, especially those from the cities and counties. Needless to say, these people came to flatter him, hoping to climb up his big tree and soar to the sky one day.

He enjoyed this kind of atmosphere very much. Compared with his work in the United Front Work Department, Dongfang Renliang felt that it was like heaven and earth. In the central government, there were many cadres of his level. Although it looked glamorous and he worked in Kyoto, he could be envied by others, but in fact he knew very well that he only had a rank but no real power, because there were so many leaders who were higher in rank and more experienced than him, so it was not his turn to hold any real power at all.

But after arriving in the capital province, the situation was completely different. Not only was he promoted to a higher level, he was also a member of the provincial standing committee, and had a certain amount of power over the cadres of the province. This alone was enough to make all the cadres in the province look up to him. Not to mention that he was also the boss of the province in the United Front Department. You can imagine what kind of power this was.

It was because of this power that Dongfang Renliang was somewhat confused and lost himself. He had already gained a lot, but this was far from satisfying him, so he wanted to go further and have a greater influence in the province, so he joined the Yu faction and wanted to play a role.

He never thought that he would die before achieving success! Just when he was about to make a move, Feng and Xu's factions suddenly joined forces and caught Yu's faction off guard. In yesterday's meeting, when discussing personnel issues, he didn't gain any advantage at all. What's worse is that two deputy ministers were removed from the United Front Work Department and two more were promoted. However, he had no say in the selection of these people, which made him extremely depressed.

The meeting had ended more than ten hours ago, and now all the cadres in the province were probably aware of this matter. This result directly led to a sharp drop in the number of cadres reporting to him. Not to mention queuing up, there were very few cadres who even came to report.

Seeing that the office that used to be bustling with people was now deserted, and apart from the secretary, there was no one else to be seen, how could he not be angry?

To be honest, those cadres were not stupid. The results of the Provincial Standing Committee were announced by the Provincial Organization Department early on. When everyone saw that those who were reused this time were from the Xu and Feng factions, and those who were sidelined were from the Yu faction, they knew who would be in charge of the overall situation in Ducheng Province in the future.

Under such circumstances, who would come to flatter Dongfang Renliang? I'm afraid they wouldn't even have time to hide, let alone come close to him.

Just as I was sulking and cursing some people for being short-sighted, the cell phone on the table rang.

Normally, if his cell phone rang, Dongfang Renliang would probably wait for a while before answering it, after all, he was really too busy, and he would hesitate to show his busy identity. But now he grabbed it immediately. No one could report to him, so it would be nice to have someone to talk to on the phone.

Without even looking at the incoming call, Dongfang Renliang picked up the phone and said, "Hello."

"Dad, it's Zhu'er." Dongfang Zhu waited for her father to answer the phone, then called him "Dad", with some grievance in her voice.

"Hmm? Zhu'er, what's wrong with you? I hear you're not in a good mood." The office was very quiet at this time, so he could clearly hear the voice coming from the other end of the phone. He felt that his daughter seemed to be in a bad mood, and even sobbed a little, so he became nervous. He was able to come to the capital because he brought his daughter to the Fang family. It would be better if nothing happened to her at this time, otherwise how would he communicate with the Fang family in the future? Even thinking of using this advantage to contact more powerful people in the future, wouldn't it be a chance?

As a typical customer, Dongfang Renliang was still thinking about his daughter at this time. He thought about himself first, and there was no real family affection in his heart and eyes. Such people don't even know that there is no meaning in their lives.

"Dad." Hearing his father actually caring about him so much, Dongfang Zhu finally couldn't control himself anymore and told him about being fired by the Organization Department.

Dongfang Renliang thought someone had bullied him, but when he heard that his daughter was still intact, he was relieved. But when he heard that it was his daughter who was fired, his anger suddenly came out.

Being a civil servant can be said to be the safest job in the country today. It can be said that once you get on this boat, unless you make a huge mistake, your life is guaranteed. This is why so many people are trying their best to become civil servants, and there is a saying that it is like an army of thousands trying to cross a single-plank bridge.

But suddenly the job was gone, which made Dongfang Renliang a little bit unacceptable. Of course, what he couldn't stand was not that his daughter lost her job, given his status, this was not a big deal at all. What he couldn't stand was that his daughter was fired, and she was fired in the province where she worked. If this matter got out, his prestige, which was already only Wuji's, would be even more destroyed.

"What's going on, Zhu'er? Did you do something wrong or offend someone?" Dongfang Renliang really couldn't understand why he fired his daughter like that. What a big mistake this was.

"Dad, I haven't done anything wrong, and I haven't offended anyone." Dongfang Zhu replied to his father.

"Then why do they want to fire you? There must be a reason, right?" Dongfang Renliang asked anxiously.

When Dongfangzhu heard the reason, she remembered it and said softly, "They said that I was absent from work for an entire afternoon without asking for leave. This was unorganized and undisciplined behavior, so they fired me."

"You didn't ask for leave? What were you doing?" Dongfang Renliang was also confused by his daughter at this moment.

"Dad, it's about what happened that day. That afternoon, you told me to stay at home, saying that you were afraid that I would be frightened and that I should take good care of myself. I also asked you if I wanted to call your unit and ask for leave, but you said there was no need." Dongfang Zhu tried his best to remind his father.

"Oh!" Dongfang Renliang remembered what his daughter said. Yes, that was the case. In order to establish his authority, he had seized on this matter and let her rest at home to show that his daughter was hurt. At that time, his daughter did ask for leave, but he refused. What a joke, the daughter of Minister Dongfang was just not going to work for an afternoon. Who should she ask for leave? Who would really make a fuss about this little thing?

It can be said that Dongfang Renliang was full of confidence at the time, thinking that he had joined the Yu faction, and with this as a backer, in the capital province, he could only bully others, but no one could fight against him. But he never expected that someone would actually use this incident to make trouble, so he was indeed somewhat in the wrong.

But even if his daughter did something wrong, dismissing her because of this small matter would be too disrespectful to Dongfang Renliang. After all, he is also one of the provincial standing committee members. Although he is not in a powerful position now, he still has an important voting right.

His daughter losing her job was secondary, but he lost face. Dongfang Renliang was already extremely angry at this moment.

"Zhu'er, don't worry, Dad will seek justice for you in this matter." Dongfang Renliang had already lost a battle yesterday, and today he wanted to turn defeat into victory with this incident.

Hearing her father's firm voice, Dongfangzhu became a little excited. It had been many years since her father had protected her like this. Although she looked very strong, she was still a girl after all and still hoped to be cared for and taken care of by others.

Now that his father has stood up for him, how could Dongfang Zhu not be excited? "Well, Dad, I'll go home and wait for your news."

After hanging up the phone with his daughter, Dongfang Renliang opened the address book and found Miao Zihan's phone number.

In his opinion, Miao Zihan probably didn't know about his daughter's dismissal. He was the provincial organization minister, a member of the provincial standing committee like himself. How could he talk about a junior, a young man who had just started working? There must be some people who saw that he had lost power, so they took advantage of the situation and dealt with his daughter. Humph! Do these people really think that my Dongfang family is so easy to bully?
