Chapter 318: Fighting with my sister? No way
On the third night after Jiang Baige arrived in Gangcheng, they met Dugu He.
Dugu He had just finished a day of setting up the exhibition, and he was exuding a mixture of fatigue and excitement.
The body is tired, but the spirit is excited.
She was the last to arrive, and before she sat down, she apologized. She said she was not familiar with the public transportation in Hong Kong, and she did not take a taxi because she was afraid of traffic jams, but she got lost three times in the underground before she found the exit.
But there was no tension or embarrassment on her face, so Jiang Baige guessed that what she was going to bring today was good news.
Sure enough, before the food they ordered was served, Dugu He couldn't wait to tell them that Meng Ping had been dealt with by her.
After talking about the results, let’s start talking about the process.
"I have to thank you, White Dove. After you told me, I immediately went to the hall to deal with this matter and found that he had not yet fully established a relationship with the big boss."
"Not 'Cake Man'?"
Lin Xingran asked these three words anxiously, then she remembered that it was a "derogatory name". Even she and Dugu He had never called that person that way in private.
The two were stunned for a moment before they laughed together.
"It's not him." After laughing, Dugu He's face turned a little gloomy, but it was definitely not joy. "He was just the matchmaker. The one who really wanted to mess with me was Chen."
Jiang Baige didn't know this Chen, but Lin Xingran was very familiar with him.
The biggest boss in the society usually has a smiling face, but since she came to the society, she has been removing the cronies left by the previous leaders and cultivating her own cronies.
However, Lin Xingran clearly remembered that Chen still respected Dugu He.
Dugu He understood what she was thinking and shrugged: "What we can see are all superficial things. In fact, who is a friend, relative, or enemy to whom is not put on the table at all."
It was only after Dugu He made a careful investigation this time that he discovered that Meng Ping's family was in business and had a close relationship with Chen's ex-husband.
But Lin Xingran was even more puzzled: "Since they already have a relationship, why do they have to go through the 'cake man'?"
"Avoid suspicion." Jiang Baige said casually.
Dugu He gave her a thumbs up and said, "You are indeed a novelist... And I think Chen also wants to win over the 'cake man'. After all, it's not a loss to give a little benefit to a licking dog who will never excel in business but is good at scheming, and get someone to take the blame in exchange."
After explaining this, she continued.
"Since I knew that Chen was afraid of me... It just happened to be the golden months of social recruitment, as well as the spring recruitment of campuses, so I followed her preferences and recruited people who were inextricably linked to her. Not only that, she thought I had a good job, so I kept those kids with me."
This kills several birds with one stone.
First of all, it goes without saying that such an obvious surrender would gain Chen’s trust.
Secondly, it is always easier to keep an eye on those people with connections under your own supervision so as not to trip them up.
Chen only thought that her department was efficient, but she never considered that the more connections came in, the greater the competition would be.
Like the cake man said, there is a finite amount of cake.
At this time, everyone will only think about self-protection.
The relatives also have close and distant relationships. Those who are not capable will naturally go to Chen to ask for an explanation. Those who are capable but have poor relationships will naturally not accept it.
How could these people form an "alliance" when they were competing with each other and were too busy to take care of themselves? How could they care about helping Chen?
The only one who can help Chen is Meng Ping.
But Meng Ping is only Chen's ex-husband. Although it cannot be said that he has no relationship with her, he is still her "ex" husband after all, so there is always a distance and suspicion between them, so it is not so pleasant.
Dugu He only used a trick to make Meng Ping feel threatened by those newcomers - he naturally didn't know that these people were all relatives! Naturally, he took ruthless action.
Dogs bite dogs, and when it comes to Chen, Dugu He wants to show his loyalty, so of course he stands on the side of the real relative.
Finally, Meng Ping was transferred to the printing department and became an assistant to the director.
In terms of position, he was promoted, so Dugu He could save face.
However, any discerning person can see that this kind of "promotion" that is not linked to salary increase and is instead separated from the business department is nothing but a promotion in name only and a demotion in reality.
It’s the same old routine.
What was more important than creating a rift between these people was that Meng Ping went to the printing department, but he was not the department director, so he had no right to participate in the topic selection meeting.
Moreover, after leaving Dugu He's department, he and her would have no direct conflict of interest. If he wanted to take action, it would be against his current leader... Therefore, there was no reason for him to deliberately report those books and cause trouble for the publishing house.
But Dugu He was still worried about him.
So when choosing a department for Meng Ping, Dugu He deliberately chose the printing department whose director had a grudge against Meng Ping.
In the previous work, because Meng Ping forgot to indicate the difference in gifts given to different platforms, the printing director did not tell the printing factory in advance, so the final delivery was a mess.
Readers carefully select the platform just to get the corresponding gifts, but in the end their efforts are in vain. How can they not complain?
The two of them argued, and in the end, although they both criticized each other verbally, which was equivalent to giving each of them fifty lashes, how could the printing director not be angry?
Now that Meng Ping has gone to his department, will there be any good results? Even if he was worried before that Meng Ping might be a relative, he no longer needs to be afraid now.
So he will definitely try to minimize Meng Ping's contact with leaders.
When Dugu He said this, his brows were beaming with joy, and it seemed as if the skin on his face had stretched out, as if he had rejuvenated several years.
Jiang Baige and Lin Xingran looked at each other: Victory is the best beauty product for women.
After talking about how he dealt with Meng Ping, Dugu He patted his chest and said to Jiang Baige, "Don't worry, there will be no problem with your book."
"I believe you."
Although these four words are simple, when they say them, they feel that they have walked for a long time to reach these four words.
From not yet graduating from undergraduate studies to now being about to graduate from graduate school.
During this period, Jingchai has published two books.
I can only say that the work of online writers is difficult to describe in words.
Jiang Baige mentioned their experience at the Spanish Book Fair with some emotion. Lin Xingran also said that it was that exchange that planted the seeds for her to continue to study and explore women.
So the topic naturally returned to Lin Xingran.
Dugu He seemed very curious about what Lin Xingran had learned after almost a year in Gangcheng.
Of course Lin Xingran was also happy to share with them.
This year, she not only studied, learned languages and fell in love, but also spent more time participating in various women's social activities.
In those activities, she was exposed to various forms of female thought.
She disagrees with some of them, but even though she disagrees, they are all women, so their thoughts are "women's thoughts."
This made her realize that what attracted her most about women and feminism was that there were no standard answers but rather a variety of practices.
