Xu Damao's Thirty-Six Stratagems in Siheyuan

The lonely time will eventually end.

And now, things are happening.

Driven by the 1780mm continuous casting and rolling steel plate coil production line of Hongxing Steel Rolling Plant, Hongxing Plant also started to use this technology along with the 1810mm continuous casting and rolling production line of the main plant. Most importantly, the technical department of Hongxing Plant also innovated the heat insulation and heat storage technology of refractory materials, which can save ten percentage points of cost. For a time, Hongxing Plant became the focus of the industry. Technical backbones and leaders of many plants in the industry came to Hongxing Plant to visit and learn.

Su Dingan saw it all and was delighted. This project was successfully introduced and launched under his personal leadership and planning. He did not expect that it would have such a good response in less than a year. Anyone would think it was an honor.

When they come to the factory, they are guests. You cannot refuse to entertain them.

Originally, this matter had nothing to do with the Youth League Committee. It was mainly the responsibility of the production workshop, the technical department, and the factory. If such a good thing happened, it would not be the responsibility of the factory Youth League Committee.

However, my alcohol tolerance is limited, and I am often hungry and cannot withstand the constant bombardment.

It is not like the 1970s, when supplies were scarce. Now it is not a problem to eat bear paws.

Every steel mill has a temper, and we can't lose over drinking. We are ahead in technological innovation, and we can't let the guests of other steel mills get drunk. We can't. Su Dingan is also a man of blood, and he pees while standing.

Someone recommended it. Director Su, you may not know that there are many people in the factory who can drink. I know one of them.

Yao Jiang, the workshop director of the second workshop, is an old Red Star employee who has worked in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s.

"Oh? Director Yao, you have this talent, why didn't you recommend him earlier?"

"Director Su, he is actually a veteran of the Red Star Factory. He joined the factory before I did, and he has been here for more than 30 years. He is a veteran employee. But now he is a low-key person and works in a low-key department, so I can't recommend him to entertain guests. At this juncture, we can't let down the Red Star Factory's reputation, so I dare to recommend him, and he will definitely be able to handle a wave of reception tasks for drinking competitions."

"After talking for so long, you still haven't told me who it is."

"Xu Damao, the secretary of the Youth League Committee. Secretary Xu, even though he is almost fifty, he looks very young. It is said that he is a martial artist and has won military merits. I haven't tested his alcohol tolerance, but it is said that it is unfathomable. He can easily fight ten people at once."

I'm noisy. How could Xu Damao know that he was recommended to the factory as a male escort? Xu Damao didn't know many of the current Red Star Factory team. He only knew their names and had only met them a few times. Maybe if he ran into them on the street, Xu Damao might not know the factory director, deputy director, secretary and others. He didn't develop in that direction. He usually didn't care about anything and just muddled through. The chances of the Youth League Committee meeting with the factory director and deputy director were slim. The most important thing was that Xu Damao didn't try to gain personal connections, so how could he know anyone? He usually dozed off during meetings.

Su Dingan was the same. He was not familiar with Xu Damao. He heard that he was the secretary of the Youth League Committee of the factory, and his face turned red. He didn't know him.

On the third day, Xu Damao received a call from the factory, saying that Director Su wanted to see him. Xu Damao was stunned. What was going on? I didn't do anything wrong!

When he arrived at the factory director's office and had a conversation, he found out that the organization had assigned him three important tasks: accompany, accompany reception, visit, and accompany drinking.

It's not what I want. I can't refuse, so what? Just accept it. Wine is also the essence of food, and it can be transformed into energy using the Five Elements Qi Refining Technique. Why not?

As expected, they killed all four. Director Su suddenly got rid of his anxiety about the reception and smiled. Haha, this is my general, he is really brave.

Xu Damao really doesn't care. Generally, the receptions are held at noon and do not affect his normal pace of life.

However, he did gain something from the month-long reception.

He met Qu Yuanhang, the director of the continuous casting and rolling workshop of the general factory and He Lihua's current lover.

As expected, he is a combination of talent and beauty, which makes Xu Damao look at him with new eyes. No wonder He Lihua also likes him.

But they just knew each other and clinked glasses twice. Xu Damao didn't want to disrupt the peace between them, but silently prayed for He Lihua to have a better life.

But Director Su didn't think so. He planned to make more use of Xu Damao.

"Secretary Xu, because of the production innovation, we really neglected the work of the Youth League Committee."

"Director Su, the Youth League Committee is working normally. As long as it is beneficial to the factory, our Youth League Committee will definitely take the lead."

Xu Damao is neither a troublemaker nor a scoundrel. But he is still willing to stay in an unimportant position.

"Secretary Xu, you are really an old man in the Red Star Factory. I think you should be given more responsibilities. I think you should be assigned to a more important position. I plan to appoint you as the deputy director, in charge of administration. I would like to hear your opinion?"

The olive branch was extended, but Xu Damao refused to accept it.

"Director Su, thank you very much. But I really can't take this important position. You said I can drink, which is true. I can drink one or two pounds normally. Times have changed. I was a high school student back then, and my level is about the same as that of today's junior high school students. The Red Star Factory is developing rapidly now, and I must not hinder the pace of reform and progress of the factory because of my own selfish desires. I appreciate your kindness, but I really can't take the position."

Su Dingbo had never seen anyone push someone away when they had a chance to be promoted. He had carefully read Xu Damao's information and found that he was indeed qualified to be the deputy director. It was not surprising to appoint Xu Damao as the administrative deputy director. Although he was also trying to win people's hearts, he was still reasonable in his heart. Unexpectedly, Xu Damao refused.

"Secretary Xu, this transfer is official. Would you consider it again?"

"Director Su, thank you for your trust. Really, my level is not up to par. It's a stretch for me to be able to shine in the Youth League Committee, let alone the heavy responsibility of being the deputy director. It's important for people to know themselves. I know what I can do and what I can't do. Thank you again."

Xu Damao resolutely rejected the olive branch from the head of Red Star Factory. He didn't want work to occupy most of his life. The higher the position, the more time he would work and the less private space he would have.

He is not short of money, nor does he want to pursue a career in government. He is almost fifty years old, has no education, and no background. He doesn't want to be taken advantage of.

If this offends the top leader, he doesn't mind resigning and going home to return to his family.

Fortunately, Su Dingan didn't mind Xu Damao's refusal too much. The main reason was that he knew that Xu Damao was a high school student and had no background.

Well, Xu Damao will do his best to receive you. If the deputy director doesn't want to do it, then don't do it. Anyway, you are still in the factory, and you have to go if the organization needs you.

Xu Damao is indeed clear that it is a miracle that he has been able to get to this point in his career in the unit. The most important thing is that he really does not want to go in that direction. In his heart, there is only his small circle of family and friends. Being able to maintain this circle that belongs to him is everything to him.

It's not that he is selfish, but that he is really selfish.
