The First Volume: The Official's Initial Chapter 61: The Difficult Path of an Official

  "Comrade Liu Bihua, this kind of thinking is unacceptable! Regarding the issue of case handling expenses for the dispatch office in the free trade zone you raised... I have criticized the old head of the dispatch office in the free trade zone before! Today, I reiterate - don't do whatever it takes to be independent! Don't be selfish! Consider the overall situation! We are all part of the same public security system! Do we still need to distinguish between dispatch offices and public security branches?" Wang Shoujun, the director of the Public Security Bureau in the free trade zone, severely criticized and educated Comrade Liu Bihua. Sitting next to Wang Shoujun was Zhang Aiqing, the political commissar of the Public Security Bureau in the free trade zone.

  Liu Bihua finally came to the bonded area public security sub-bureau to ask for an explanation in a situation where he could no longer bear it! There is always justice in the world, and there will always be rewards for what you pay for! However, the bonded area police station paid out 3 layers of brand new office buildings... but nothing was gained in return! Liu Bihua felt that this was a bit too much! It's too unfair!

  "Director, political commissar... it's not that our bonded area police station is disorganized and undisciplined, nor is it that we are selfish and only care about ourselves... it's just that the bonded area police station has become so poor that it can't even afford to pay for case investigation expenses! We understand that the government is temporarily having difficulties and can't issue salaries... but as part of the public security system, shouldn't the system at least solve some basic living expenses for our comrades in the police station? I couldn't possibly let my soldiers go hungry before going into battle, could I?"

  Liu Bihua decided to say all the words that should be said and had been bottled up in his heart! Whether others were happy or not was their own business! Liu Bihua felt that if he didn't represent the bonded area police station to speak out these words... then he would be an incompetent director.

  The head of the Public Security Branch, Wang Shoujun, and the political commissar Zhang Aiqing obviously did not expect Liu Guanghua's tone to be so "tough"! In fact, Liu Guanghua was just a bit more agitated in his speech. In front of the leaders, Comrade Liu Guanghua is still relatively low-key. However, this low-key attitude of Liu Guanghua is still not enough for Wang Shoujun and Zhang Aiqing! Not humble at all, even a bit arrogant!

  Before Wang Shoujun could speak, Zhang Aiqing knocked on the table and criticized: "Comrade Liu Guanghua, I think your attitude is a big problem... As leaders of the branch bureau, do we not know about the police station's affairs? But leaders have their own considerations! We have our own difficulties! Oh, you're having trouble... several months without paying wages, the branch bureau hasn't paid either! Now the bonded zone government's finances are very tight, let alone us not having money... even if we had money, do you think we could pay?

  "Comrade Liu Bihua, you must consider the overall situation! What is the overall situation? The overall situation is that our bonded area public security sub-bureau must be consistent with the bonded area government! Must be consistent with the Hanghai Economic Special Zone Municipal Committee and Municipal Government! I think your coming today is just a mess!"

  "Director, I feel like you're being a bit too harsh... I was just reporting the situation at the bonded area police station truthfully to the leadership of the Public Security Bureau! I asked for instructions and suddenly it became a mess? I really don't understand! Also, although the bureau didn't issue salaries, everyone got bonuses, right? Why didn't the comrades from the police station get any? Are they inferior?"

  Liu Bihua has finally become popular! Well, you said I was making a big fuss? Okay, then I'll make a big fuss for you to see! Liu Bihua did this because he had a "Special Assistant to the Municipal Public Security Bureau Director" amulet! Liu Bihua is not afraid of trouble, at worst, he can just slap his butt and leave! This deputy director of the police station won't work anymore! If all else fails, the Special Assistant to the Municipal Public Security Bureau Director won't work either! Go back to the troops!

  Zhang Aiqing raised his hand, trembling with rage, pointing at Liu Bihua and shouted: "What's your attitude! Do you think we're intentionally making things difficult for the police station? For you? No! Don't measure others' hearts with your own petty mind! Last time during the mass petition event, you fired your gun without authorization... the impact was extremely bad! We haven't even settled accounts with you over that incident yet! And now you dare to... turn things around and bite back like a dog biting Lu Dongbin!"

  Liu Bihua was enraged by Zhang Aiqing's words! He blazed: "I fired my gun arbitrarily? You didn't mention it and I had already forgotten! Why did 500-600 people gather for no reason that day? Why were they targeting me specifically? Why did only the police station personnel go to maintain order that day? Why couldn't we see anyone from the branch bureau? I'm too lazy to say all this! And at that time, 500-600 people wanted to rush up and beat me to death... If I didn't fire my gun, was I waiting to become a revolutionary martyr? I don't have your kind of great revolutionary integrity, Comrade Zhang!"

  After the mass petitioning incident, Liu Bihua and Cai Zhenghua communicated with each other and felt that it must be the Public Security Sub-Bureau playing tricks! Originally, he wanted to suppress it and swallow this breath. But unexpectedly, Zhang Aiqing now actually brought it up voluntarily! If Liu Bihua, who almost "lost his life", could still endure... was he still human?

  "You... you..." Zhang Aiqing was almost choked to death by Liu Bihua! He pointed at Liu Bihua, for a moment he didn't know what to say! Of course, this also had something to do with his guilty conscience!

  "You are simply a leader with no vision! You belong to the typical unorganized and undisciplined type!" Before Zhang Aiqing could say a complete sentence, Wang Shoujun, the director of the Bonded Area Public Security Bureau, couldn't help but slap the table and jump up! He pointed at Liu Bihua's nose and scolded.

  Looking at Wang Shoujun, who was pointing at his own nose and scolding him, Liu Bihua's blood pressure soared to an infinite degree! As a person from the two worlds, although Liu Bihua didn't have much achievement, but as a Qi Lu person... Liu Bihua had a very straightforward and stern personality! His principle was that he never bullied others! And others shouldn't think of bullying him either! In polite language, it's: I won't offend you if you don't offend me! If you offend me, I will definitely offend you back!

  Now Liu Bihua really wants to slam the table and have a good argument with Wang Shoujun! But Liu Bihua repeatedly warned himself in his heart: "Calm down! Must be calm! Firm! Must be firm! This is not in society... this is in officialdom! Officialdom is difficult... it's hard to get ahead on the official path... I must overcome difficulties! Step by step, move forward! My future and official career cannot be blocked by small people like Wang Shoujun and Zhang Aiqing! Who laughs last, who laughs the sweetest! Let's see after a few years, who will be laughing in the end... me or you guys?

  Wang Shoujun stared intently at Liu Bihua, who was on the verge of exploding... He was also a little afraid in his heart! He knew that Liu Bihua's skills were exceptional! What if he really exploded and it didn't go well for himself? Liu Bihua was the special assistant to the director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau... If he really didn't give face to Wang Shoujun, then Wang Shoujun would be in a difficult situation! However, Wang Shoujun wouldn't be afraid of Cai Zhenghua! Because his background was the Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, Guo Chunyan! The Municipal Party Secretary, Li Mu Feng!

  Zhang Aiqing also looked at Liu Bihua with tension! Zhang Aiqing somewhat understood Wang Shoujun's meaning... Wang Shoujun's over-the-top behavior earlier might be an attempt to intentionally provoke Liu Bihua! As long as Liu Bihua dares to disobey orders... then the reason and excuse for dealing with Liu Bihua will come! In official circles, being undisciplined, disobedient, and not following leadership is a taboo! If you commit this taboo... it's your own fault if you get ruined! I believe that by then, Cai Zhenghua won't even stand up to speak for Liu Bihua!

  The atmosphere in the room is abnormally tense and explosive! It's as if a spark would set off an immediate explosion here!

  "Haha... Director, I think you're wrong! I should be - organized... undisciplined!" Liu Bihua suddenly showed a brilliant and harmless smile to Wang Shoujun and Zhang Aiqing, and also came up with a classic sentence that was both laughable and tear-jerking!

  Ah…… how could this be? Wang Shoujun and Zhang Aiqing were suddenly stunned! They waited for Liu Baohua to make a momentary impulse... then they could severely beat the fallen dog... but just as this dog was about to jump into the river and become a "fallen dog", how did it suddenly jump out of their trap?

  The room fell silent once again.

  "Ding ding ding......" A shrill phone ring broke the silence.

  Wang Shoujun looked at Liu Bihua with a sense of discontent... He felt extremely disheartened! Liu Bihua's performance just now made Wang Shoujun and Zhang Aiqing feel threatened! This is a personal talent! Cai Zhenghua sent someone to seize power, and he was indeed formidable! This time they didn't even catch his weak point, it seems that in the future it will be even more difficult!

  Wang Shoujun sighed and picked up the phone... Suddenly his face turned incredibly radiant: "Ah... Secretary? Hehe, I'm Wang Shoujun? What? Ah... It's here with me." After finishing speaking, Wang Shoujun stared blankly at Liu Bihua while holding the phone, then said inexplicably: "Liu Bihua... come and answer the phone."

  Liu Bihua was equally perplexed: "Answering the phone? Who would call the office of the director of the bonded area public security sub-bureau?"

  Yesterday, I stayed up all night to write and save the draft. No. 2 will be strongly promoted, and on the 7th, it will go online... Once again, I call on old readers who have supported "Rebirth: Wind and Clouds" and "Rebirth: Official Path" to reserve a monthly vote for me! On the 7th, vote for "Official Path"! That day, votes will be doubled! Thank you!
