Micro-fiction: symposium

  On the eve of August 1st, Director Zhang of the Office of Veterans Affairs Bureau, as in previous years, began to prepare for the symposium for retired personnel. Zhang looked through the list of people who attended the symposium in previous years, and was very disgusted with the retired Deputy Director Lin and the on-the-job Chief Sun, because they basically didn't talk about grades, but only talked about problems, and the problems were comprehensive and specific, which made all the leaders who attended the symposium very embarrassed. This year's symposium, director Zhang is going to replace them.

  The list of participants in the symposium was submitted to Director Zhao, who looked up at Director Zhang after seeing the list. Director Zhang hurriedly said that Deputy Director Lin had taken his wife out for a trip, and section chief Sun said that the time of the forum was in conflict with work, so they were replaced. Zhao smiled, picked up a pen and signed his name.

  Zhang was glad that his white lies had deceived Zhao, because these two men came to smash the field in Zhang's memory, not to hold a symposium. The purpose of the symposium they had worked so hard to prepare was to let the leaders attending the symposium listen to the work and achievements made by the Bureau of Veterans Affairs, but these two men just talked about the problems, not the results, and they were both comprehensive and specific. When it came to the excitement, they stood up and danced, making Zhao blush with shame in front of the leaders.

  Zhang has never been a soldier. In recent years, he has been the director of the office of the Veterans Affairs Bureau, and he has a deep understanding of the veterans' outspoken and generous personality, but there are not many like them. For example, at last year's symposium, Deputy Director Lin talked about caring for difficult retired soldiers, pointing out that the work is not deep enough and grounded enough. He said that caring for retired soldiers can be solved not only by a bucket of oil and a bag of rice, but also by organizing free skills training and organizing local enterprises to carry out job docking, so as to fundamentally solve the problem of their difficult lives.

  Another example is section chief Sun, whose wife's work in the army has been arranged very well, so he should be able to shut up, but he just wants to talk about the resettlement of other demobilized cadres' dependents. Now it is very difficult to resettle demobilized cadres' dependents, and he doesn't understand the difficulties in resettlement, making Director Zhao and the leaders in charge bow their heads.

  Director Zhang has his own selfishness in removing them from the list. From the beginning of preparation to the organization, it can be said that it is very laborious, and the success of the meeting can also reflect its own work achievements. If people attending the symposium talk more about their work and achievements, and less about problems, such a conference unit will be satisfied, its leaders will be happy, and its own achievements will be achieved.

  The symposium was held as scheduled according to the planned time. When Zhang entered the conference room with a teacup and meeting materials, he saw Deputy Director Lin and Section Chief Sun sitting in the middle of the conference room, which made Zhang stunned on the spot and knew that his lies had been exposed. Now, no matter whether Deputy Director Lin and Section Chief Sun smashed the field, it is a high probability to smash the field. As long as Zhao is not in public, thank God for criticizing himself.

  The meeting was presided over by Director Zhao. After introducing the leaders who participated in the symposium and the personnel listed in the list, Director Zhao pointed out in particular that Deputy Director Lin and Section Chief Sun were the special guests of the symposium. I hope that the two will put forward insightful opinions and suggestions as in previous years, so that we can continuously improve our work style and better serve veterans.

  As predicted by Director Zhang, Deputy Director Lin and Section Chief Sun continued to retain the style of the past years, only talking about problems without talking about work and achievements, and talking about problems was endless, both comprehensive and specific, and specific to the example, which made the leaders present and Director Zhao frequently raise cups to cover up their embarrassing situation.

  After the meeting, Zhang always had a knot in his heart. How did Zhao know that he had lied to replace Deputy Director Lin and Section Chief Sun? These two men never spoke well. Why did Zhao invite them to attend the symposium?

  When two people were chatting, Zhang couldn't help it, so he asked Zhao how he knew he was lying. Director Zhao said, you didn't press yourself. I wanted to ask you about the meeting time, but you answered the replacement of the two men. Every time you held a symposium, you hated them both, which showed that you had done little tricks.

  Director Zhang asked again, the two of them never speak well of us, and they all add to our difficulties. Why did you invite them to the forum? You hate them in order not to embarrass our leaders and show your organizational ability; I invited them to borrow their mouths and put the problems before the superior leaders, so that they can get the support of the leaders in their work in the future, promote our work and better serve the veterans. Look at the problem and solve the problem from different angles, so the idea is different.
