Chapter 802: Feng Zhou City’s Youngest Deputy Division Chief

Morning.

Commission for Discipline Inspection.

Three offices were at the end of the second floor’s corridor of a small office building. The innermost office was a big office that could hold more than a dozen work desks. The Commission for Discipline Inspection staff were working and did not notice Dong Xuebing and Gao Wenrong.

They stopped and stood in the corridor.

Gao Wenrong explained. “This is the Commission for Discipline Inspection’s First Inspection Office.”

Dong Xuebing nodded and looked around. “This is a nice environment.”

“Shall we go in?” Gao Wenrong asked.

“Never mind. They seemed to be busy. It’s not good to disturb them.”

“Haha…. You are the head of the First Inspection Office. You don’t need to worry about that.”

“The official announcement is not released yet, and it’s not good for me to disrupt their work. Let’s talk about it again in the afternoon.

“Alright. Let’s go to your office. This is your office.”

They entered an office, and Dong Xuebing was blinded by the sun from the windows. He had to narrow his eyes for a while. The office had a north south-facing, and the windows were opposite the door. Two pots of flowers were placed by the windows, and a black solid wood desk was in front of the windows. There was a set of sofas on the left, and a bookshelf was placed against the wall on the right. A tall plant was placed near the door. This décor was similar to most leaders’ offices.

Gao Wenrong smiled. “I knew you would be coming and had asked the staff to tidy up the office. What do you think?”

“It’s great. Thanks, Brother Gao.”

“Let me know if you need anything. I will get my staff to prepare it.”

“This is fine. I will trouble you if I need anything. I hope you will not find me troublesome. Haha….”

“It’s not troublesome at all. Just look around yourself. Oh….” Gao Wenrong suddenly said. “Your apartment is not ready yet. The former First Office Director was injured during the earthquake, and he might take a few days to move. I contacted our City Party Committee’s Guesthouse to prepare a room for you. I will pass you the keys this afternoon. This is temporary accommodation, and I will let you know once there is an available apartment.”

Dong Xuebing was understanding and did not mind this arrangement. The City did not have enough apartments for its staff as many houses were damaged during the earthquake. “It’s alright, Brother Gao. There’s no rush.”

Gao Wenrong replied. “Ok. I shall go back now.”

Dong Xuebing tried to stop him. “Wait…. Stay a while longer. I will brew tea for you.”

“I will come again another time.” Gao Wenrong pointed at his watch. “Secretary He had instructed me to inform all department heads about the meeting. I also got to arrange the meeting room.”

Gao Wenrong left.

Gao Wenrong, the Commission for Discipline Inspection’s Office Director, should be holding the same rank as Dong Xuebing. He held the title of Deputy Secretary and had higher authority than Dong Xuebing. He was polite towards Dong Xuebing because the latter was the Commission for Discipline Inspection First Inspection Office’s Director. The First Inspection Office was the most important office in the City’s Commission for Discipline Inspection Department.

Simply put, it is. The Commission for Discipline Inspection’s First Inspection Office can investigate any District’s or County’s government officials, including the leaders. Dong Xuebing’s Office held the most power among the Commission for Discipline Inspection’s sub-departments. The First Inspection Office Director would also be a City Commission for Discipline Inspection Party Committee member. But Dong Xuebing’s length of service was too short, and he was promoted due to exceptional basis. He was not qualified to be one of the Party Committee members.

Dong Xuebing had asked Xie Huilan about the Commission for Discipline Inspection’s work and internal structure. After understanding the department, he did not complain about not entering the Party Committee. He was satisfied with having the most power among all Deputy Division Chief positions. Moving from a Subdistrict Office Director to this position was considered a triple promotion. This was all due to his performance during the earthquake and the Xie Family’s help. Without the Xie Family’s help, it might take three to five years to get this position.

Dong Xuebing looked around his office and poured himself a glass of water. He felt he was dreaming as he looked back on his career.

Ten minutes….

Twenty minutes….

Half an hour….

The phone on the desk rang.

Dong Xuebing answered. “Hello.”

It was Gao Wenrong. “Director Dong, the meeting room is ready. Secretary, He asked you to go there now.”

“Alright. I will go now.”

“The meeting room is on the top floor. See you in a bit.”

Dong Xuebing straightened his shirt and tied it before walking quickly toward the top floor.

Dong Xuebing’s previous appointments were head of the County’s Investment Promotion Agency and Subdistrict Office. That’s why he doesn’t care much about those announcement ceremonies. This time was different. He was only the Director of a subdepartment, and there was a Leader, Deputy Secretary, and Secretary above him. He had to be early and could not be late.

The meeting room was a medium-size meeting hall.

Dong Xuebing entered the meeting room and looked around. He did not know anyone except for Gao Wenrong. Many other top leaders had not arrived.

The Commission for Discipline Inspection’s staff noticed Dong Xuebing, and they were shocked.

Some of them had heard the Earthquake Hero, Dong Xuebing, would be transferred to the Commission for Discipline Inspection, but most had not met him before. When they saw a young man in his mid-twenties, they frowned and stared at him.

This guy is the Commission for Discipline Inspection’s First Inspection Office Director.

The staff started to talk among themselves.

“That guy is Director Dong.”

“Why is he so young?”

No one expected Dong Xuebing to be so young.

The staff did not know if there were Deputy Division Chiefs in their mid-twenties in other Cities. But they know this guy should be Fen Zhou City’s youngest Deputy Division Chief!
