He Yuzhu nodded and sat down to wait. The big boss was busy from morning till night every day, and his office was almost always full of people.
He Yuzhu was somewhat sentimental, thinking that he would be content as long as he became a section chief, with a certain social status and not much to do every day, so he could enjoy life to the fullest.
After reading the newspaper for a while, He Yuzhu was invited into the inner room by Secretary Wang.
Besides the top leader, there was another middle-aged cadre wearing a Zhongshan suit.
He Yuzhu was quite surprised. Could today's events be related to this cadre?
Secretary Wang brought them a cup of tea, refilled their teacups, and then left, closing the door behind him.
The senior leader's face was very serious as he asked, "He Yuzhu, someone has reported you for having illicit relationships with women. Today is the day to deal with this matter."
"what!"
He Yuzhu was extremely surprised. As long as no one reports it, the superiors will not find out about matters of the heart.
After all, this matter is difficult to define, and He Yuzhu never thought that he would be investigated one day.
But when that day actually came, He Yuzhu's first reaction was that it must have been Geng Feiyan and Jiang Hanyang who did it.
Or to be more precise, the Geng family reported themselves. No one else had the power to put this report in front of a high-ranking leader.
After all, the two sides have been fighting over the ownership of the machinery factory for some time now.
Geng Feiyan had just taken complete control of the machinery factory when she dismantled it, effectively cutting off its lifeline and turning it into an ordinary lathe manufacturing company.
He had no power to challenge the top leaders and stop the construction of the vehicle factory, but he still had some ways to deal with the culprit, He Yuzhu.
This time, they're using He Yuzhu's Achilles' heel—his romantic relationships—to try and bring him down in one fell swoop.
The cadre in the Zhongshan suit introduced himself: "Comrade He Yuzhu, I am from the discipline inspection department. I wonder what your opinion is on this report?"
As he spoke, he handed over a document. He Yuzhu opened it and saw that Xu Huizhi, Xu Zhaodi, Xu Xiaomei, and others were all listed on it.
The writing was detailed and detailed, but thankfully Jiang Hui's name wasn't mentioned.
The top leader was very angry. He had previously emphasized to He Yuzhu that they shouldn't go too far.
But it was still reported to the authorities. Many things can be done privately, but when it comes to official matters and officials are involved, the rules must be followed.
He Yuzhu was completely unprepared and kept thinking about whether there had been any changes at the vehicle factory.
But who would have thought that when he arrived at the big boss's office, someone was there to investigate his illicit affairs.
Cold sweat dripped down He Yuzhu's forehead; this was truly unexpected.
Wait, I'm not a cadre anymore, am I?
Although he served as the deputy head of the vehicle factory preparatory group, this position was only a temporary appointment and had no official rank.
His true identity at present is just an ordinary citizen in Jiaodaokou.
If there were no plaintiff, I wouldn't even be subject to any punishment.
After all, the disciplinary inspection department is responsible for investigating leading cadres, not ordinary citizens like themselves.
He Yuzhu actually had another solution: if he revealed his connection to the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics and made a phone call to Meng Tingfei, the head of the Seventh Security Section, the matter should be resolved.
But this is a minor matter and doesn't need to bother Meng Tingfei, so as not to incur a favor.
He Yuzhu asked, "Excuse me, is there a plaintiff in this case?"
"Plaintiff? Why do you say that?" the cadre in the Zhongshan suit asked in surprise.
He Yuzhu asked, "Is your unit primarily responsible for cases involving violations of laws and regulations by leading cadres?"
"Yes, you've been the deputy director of the machinery factory for many years, how come you don't even have this much common sense?"
“But I’m not the deputy director of the machinery factory anymore,” He Yuzhu said with a smile.
"Be serious, stop joking around. Do you have any sense of responsibility as a cadre?"
He Yuzhu said, "I'm not a leading cadre anymore. I'm just an ordinary citizen. Even my organizational affiliation has been terminated."
He Yuzhu had joined the organization before, but Jiang Hanyang was ruthless. He was expelled from the machinery factory, stripped of his title as a section-level cadre, and his organizational affiliation was also terminated, turning him into an ordinary citizen.
Although He Yuzhu currently holds the title of deputy group leader, he is not an official in the strict sense; he is just an ordinary citizen.
The senior leader and the cadre in the Zhongshan suit exchanged glances and asked, "He Yuzhu, what is your current organizational affiliation?"
"I'm just an ordinary citizen!"
The cadre in the Zhongshan suit frowned: "How come when I investigated you, you were still a section chief?"
He Yuzhu said, "Maybe the information wasn't updated in time. I've been dismissed from my post by Jiaodaokou Subdistrict Office. I'm no longer a section chief or even a member. I'm just an ordinary citizen now."
"This..." The cadre in the Zhongshan suit didn't know what to say for a moment.
If He Yuzhu is really just an ordinary citizen, then this report is not very meaningful.
After all, they couldn't control He Yuzhu, but they couldn't submit such a report to the court either, since it was anonymous and their own company didn't have the right to file a lawsuit.
Moreover, the senior leader had just hinted that he could be given some preferential treatment if the rules allowed.
Since He Yuzhu is not a leading cadre and is just an ordinary citizen, he can be exempted from punishment.
However, it was impossible for He Yuzhu to become an official even if he wanted to.
He said, "I will verify your identity and position again. If you are just an ordinary citizen, this document is indeed of no use to you right now."
"but."
The man in the Zhongshan suit paused for a moment, then said, "However, you can never serve as a leading cadre in your lifetime."
Normally, this would be fatal for a person.
After all, someone with questionable character and who engages in promiscuous relationships should not be a cadre.
Even if he's not a cadre now, this incident will be added to his file. When he's promoted in the future, a check of his file will reveal that He Yuzhu has moral issues and is therefore ineligible for promotion.
The top leader frowned; this was a difficult situation.
The original plan was to appoint He Yuzhu as the head of the technical department once the relocation was completed and the vehicle factory was officially established.
As long as He Yuzhu is there, there will be no problem with Jeep production.
However, this report completely disrupted everything that had already been arranged.
He Yuzhu will never be able to serve as a leading cadre in his life; he can only be an ordinary citizen.
He Yuzhu said, "It's not a big deal if I don't become an official. I'm tired of being the factory director of the machinery factory for the past two years, so I'll take a break."
He Yuzhu was unwilling to serve as the factory director before, and only nominally served as the deputy factory director, because he did not want to become the target of others' attacks after 66.
After all, this is an inevitable trend, and it cannot be changed by one's own ability. Li Huaide originally wanted to learn from the steel rolling mill, but it seems that his plans have changed today.
The cadre in the Zhongshan suit asked a few questions and confirmed that He Yuzhu did not currently hold any official position, but had only agreed to be a temporary deputy group leader, which was then immediately revoked.
He Yuzhu had no objection; after all, it was a physically demanding job.
After seeing off the cadre in the Zhongshan suit, the senior leader said angrily:
"He Yuzhu, what can I say about you?"
"It's not my fault. My cultivation method is just like that; it's too masculine and needs to be balanced with yin and yang."
Of course, He Yuzhu couldn't tell the truth. He had always felt that this world was a complex one, a fusion of many TV dramas, which gave rise to his desire to play the game of life.
Now that he had an extra life and martial arts skills, he indulged himself and became promiscuous whenever he met a girl he liked and could talk to.
That's all a person can strive for in this life.
As for the idea of purifying one's mind and desires and striving to become a saint, he never even considered it.
The top leader was certainly aware of He Yuzhu's practice of martial arts; he had been involved in the entire process of He Yuzhu's trip south last time.
He simply didn't know the specifics of cultivation, and as for the need for yin-yang balance, this was the first time he had ever heard of it.
He Yuzhu said a few simple words, thus providing an excuse and avoiding too much embarrassment.
The senior leader nodded: "But what about the current situation? You can no longer serve as the deputy team leader, nor can you serve as the head of the technical department."
He Yuzhu thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll work as a section chief instead of a manager."
The practice of "working in place of a cadre" is a unique method in China. In essence, the person remains a worker but holds a leadership position.
However, these are usually the most basic positions in the office, such as clerks or section chiefs.
Regular section-level cadres cannot be replaced by workers, since there is no precedent for this.
"Section Chief" is just a title used in factories and mines, equivalent to a team leader or a junior leader in the office.
Often, this rank is only recognized within the organization; outside the organization, the person remains at the clerk level.
After all, there is no such thing as a section-level cadre in the list of state organ cadres.
The senior leader hesitated for a moment: "Wouldn't that be too unfair to you? You used to be a section chief, with a monthly salary of 110 yuan, plus some bonuses and subsidies."
If you're a section chief, your salary will be much lower; even a first-level clerk only gets seventy-eight yuan.
It's not even as high as He Yuzhu's salary as a first-class cook!
The big boss said, "By the way, are all the cafeteria staff your apprentices?"
He Yuzhu nodded. The canteen staff at the machinery factory were all apprentices he had taken in later. Several masters, led by Ma Hua, were all direct disciples who had kowtowed to their masters.
The senior leader said, "How about this, you'll be the deputy director of the canteen, working as a substitute for a manager, receiving the salary of a first-class cook, plus a position allowance. That'll make quite a bit of money each month."
