I handed over to another world

Chen Lin smiled and shook his head: "Old Zhong, Old Zhong, you are still so unforgiving with your mouth."

"But seriously, how's work going lately? I heard that the cultural project your department is promoting is going very smoothly. Are there any difficulties that you need my help to solve?"

Zhong Qingshu put away his joking expression and said seriously: "Speaking of business, I do have something I want to discuss with you... Our department is preparing for a large-scale cultural event, which aims to promote traditional culture and improve the cultural literacy of citizens. However, in this process, we are still struggling with funding and resources."

Chen Lin nodded to show his understanding: "If you have any specific needs, just let me know. I will do my best to help you coordinate."

"As for traditional culture, it was very important in the past. Especially now when technology is developing so fast, some people want to abandon some of the old things and embrace new things. In fact, this is not always beneficial."

After Chen Lin finished speaking, Zhong Qingshu immediately showed an expression of great approval: "Vice President Chen is really far-sighted... These traditional cultures are actually not dross or anything like that, but some folk customs, such as the worship of some heroes and priests, aren't these things handed down from ancient times?"

"The core issue now is funding. We hope to get more financial support. Although I am the head of the department, the association means that we have to find a way to raise money ourselves. At present, the association is too big and many places can't help us at all."

"In addition, I would like to ask you to help contact the relevant departments to see if you can provide some discounts and support in terms of venue, publicity, etc."

Chen Lin pondered for a moment before speaking: "As for the funding issue, I will communicate with the finance department to see if I can increase your budget... As for the venue and publicity, I will ask my secretary to help you contact the relevant departments and try to get the best conditions."

Zhong Qingshu suddenly stood up and said to Chen Lin: "Thank you so much, Vice President Chen! I feel much more relieved with your words."

Chen Lin smiled and motioned him to sit down. He then said to Zhong Qingshu, "You are still so polite to me? We were both in the position of person in charge for so long. Who doesn't know who?"

Zhong Qingshu laughed and said, "In the past, you and I were both in charge of various bases. Now it's different from the past. You are the vice president of the association, with a high position and power - in the future, you may even be selected as the candidate for president. I am just the head of a department. The gap between you and me is really getting bigger and bigger."

Chen Lin stood up and personally poured a cup of tea for Zhong Qingshu: "I still remember everything you did for me."

"This……"

"I actually helped you get transferred to this department as the head. Initially, the association wanted you to be the head of the grain department, saying that you had experience there."

Zhong Qingshu was stunned for a moment and then looked at Chen Lin: "I have made no contributions at all at Xuanwu Base, so why would they want me to go to that kind of place?"

"That's not an ordinary position. It's responsible for the transportation and overall planning of food for the entire planet of Origin. Although he's just a department head, he actually has a lot of power."

Chen Lin sat next to Zhong Qingshu. He took a sip from his teacup and said to Zhong Qingshu, "This is a good job, but I think it might be too tiring for you to do it, so I raised my objection at the time. In the end, the association decided to let you work in your current position."

Zhong Qingshu didn't know what to say for a moment. Chen Lin's help to him didn't seem like help, but more like he was promoting him to a sinecure.

"Don't think I'm hurting you,"

Chen Lin put down his teacup and said to Zhong Qingshu, "You can't take that position."

"how……?"

Zhong Qingshu looked at Chen Lin's serious expression and immediately realized that something was wrong, so he asked immediately.

"Some of the lucrative positions in the association are not available to ordinary people. People in these positions are either cunning or have strong backgrounds and abilities. The position I just mentioned has had six people in charge in the past ten years since the portal was opened on the Origin Star."

Chen Lin calmly said to Zhong Qingshu: "In the past two years, three people have been replaced. Two of them died accidentally, one committed suicide by jumping off a building, and the other was imprisoned for greed for money."

"At present, the association has selected a temporary person from its subordinates to take up this position. You are no longer the person in charge of the Xuanwu base in Darad. Otherwise, you should be the first to know about this kind of news. After all, these are the people who are in contact with you."

Zhong Qingshu was stunned when he heard this. This was what Chen Lin meant.

He was silent for a moment. Zhong Qingshu had previously thought that Chen Lin had suggested that he not take that seemingly lucrative position for some reason, but he had not expected that there was such a deep meaning hidden behind it.

"Vice President Chen, I...I really don't know what to say."

Zhong Qingshu's voice trembled a little, and he was obviously touched by Chen Lin's words. "Not only did you help me avoid risks, you also gave me a position that suits me better. I thought you were...deliberately suppressing me..."

Chen Lin smiled and waved at Zhong Qingshu, interrupting him: "Qingshu, we are old friends. I don't want to see you being corrupted by unnecessary troubles. Although the position has great power, it also has great risks. It is really not suitable for you."

"We both came from the same initial point in time. Although you are older than me, I don't want an old friend like you to get into an accident because of some issues of interest, right? Although the current position is a little less busy, it is actually more suitable for you."

"I know what kind of person you are, so do you understand what I'm saying?"

Zhong Qingshu nodded, a trace of gratitude flashing in his eyes: "I understand, I understand... Vice President Chen, I understand your good intentions... If you need me in the future, just let me know."

Chen Lin smiled and said, "Do I have anything else to trouble Director Zhong?"

"Hahaha……"

Zhong Qingshu burst into laughter. With Chen Lin's current status and ability, there was really no need for him to bother with anything. The status of the two was no longer on the same level.

If Zhong Qingshu wanted to actually meet Chen Lin, he actually had to rely on the friendship between them. Otherwise, with his level, it would take more than half a month to go through all the layers of application.

"What are you talking about? Do we need to be so polite to each other? By the way, regarding the cultural event, I will help you with the funding and resources as soon as possible. Just go ahead and carry forward our traditional culture." Zhong Qingshu stood up and bowed solemnly to Chen Lin: "Vice President Chen, thank you for your help and support. I won't let you down."

Chen Lin also stood up and helped Zhong Qingshu up: "Okay, okay, we don't have to be so polite... The most important thing now is to get things done. I don't want my old friend to be tainted. Sometimes some small help is inevitable. You and I just know it."

"I understand, I understand."

Zhong Qingshu nodded quickly. Chen Lin's small effort was a huge support to Zhong Qingshu. He never thought that a friend from the past could help him today...

Chen Lin said to him, "By the way, when Shanhai City was cracking down on people at all levels a while ago, I remember that a group of people in your department were also investigated, right?"

Zhong Qingshu nodded immediately: "Yes, there are a few who said they took money from others."

"Don't even think about pulling this kind of person out. There's no possibility of saving them. The salary the association gives is far beyond the standards of other industries. Almost everyone has a stable income of hundreds of thousands per year, not including all kinds of benefits and almost free benefits..."

Chen Lin frowned and said to Zhong Qingshu, "Under such circumstances, they are still doing this kind of gray business. I really don't think they have any chance of repentance, so I just dealt with them all some time ago."

Zhong Qingshu nodded towards Chen Lin, and he supported this: "Don't worry, Vice President, I fully support all the policies of the association... Moreover, this is an action to eliminate toxic blood within our association. The more this happens, the healthier the association will be."

"I'm glad you understand."

Chen Lin nodded, and the topic shifted back. He discussed in detail with Zhong Qingshu the specific details of his next traditional cultural event.

Chen Lin gave a lot of suggestions, and Zhong Qingshu also put forward his own ideas. They seemed to have returned to the days when they fought together on the Origin Star. The heads of the two large bases had a tacit understanding.

When Zhong Qingshu left Chen Lin's office, he felt much more relaxed than when he arrived.

He knew that now with Chen Lin's support, his cultural activities would go smoothly. After watching him leave, Chen Lin began to deal with some minor issues to ensure the smooth progress of the activities.

Chen Lin first contacted the finance department to obtain additional funds for Zhong Qingshu's cultural activities, and then asked his secretary to contact the relevant departments to obtain the best venue and publicity resources for the event. Although these actions of Chen Lin were just a small matter for him, they solved a big problem for Zhong Qingshu.

Under Chen Lin's promotion, all preparatory work was completed efficiently.

Not long after, the traditional cultural activities that Zhong Qingshu was in charge of officially kicked off. On the opening day of the event, Chen Lin also attended in person to show his support for his old friend.

If the vice president is present at the event, wouldn’t the standard be extremely high?
And Zhong Qingshu did not disappoint Chen Lin. The event site was decorated in an antique style and was full of the atmosphere of traditional culture - traditional opera performances, folk art displays, ancient poems, and the production and sale of various traditional handicrafts. Many citizens from Shangdu came to participate, making the scene very lively.

Zhong Qingshu stood on the stage, looking at the bustling crowd below. His heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment, but he also knew clearly that all this was inseparable from Chen Lin's help.

In his speech, he first mentioned Chen Lin and thanked Vice President Chen for everything he had done for the event. Naturally, Chen Lin had to go on stage to say a few words. Facing the enthusiastic citizens and guests participating in the event, he also gave a brief speech, emphasizing the importance of traditional culture and praising the efforts and achievements of Zhong Qingshu and his team.

“Dear citizens, today we are here together to witness a cultural feast.”

"Especially Director Zhong and his team, it is through their hard work and unremitting efforts that our traditional culture can be displayed so vividly. Let us applaud their efforts."

There was thunderous applause from the audience, and Zhong Qingshu immediately stood up and greeted everyone...

The event was in full swing, and Chen Lin also interacted with citizens in the audience, listening to their views and suggestions on the event.

He found that the citizens were very welcome to such cultural activities, which surprised Chen Lin.

Chen Lin originally thought that such activities might not be well received at this point in time.

As the event came to a successful conclusion, Chen Lin and Zhong Qingshu met again backstage.

Zhong Qingshu excitedly said to Chen Lin: "Vice President Chen, today was such a success... I can't believe this is true!"

Chen Lin said with a smile: "You deserve this. The team you lead has done an outstanding job. As the person in charge, you came here in person. I am very happy to see the citizens so happy... Just keep up the momentum. I believe you will do even better in the future."

Zhong Qingshu nodded: "Of course we will. With today's achievement, we will at least be more confident in this route in the future."

Chen Lin said goodbye with a smile. He had been delayed here for a long time and asked the association to free up time here. All the originally planned arrangements were temporarily changed. Now that the event was over, he would naturally leave directly.

"I don't know when we will meet again, I can only say goodbye if we are destined to meet again."

Chen Lin waved his hand towards Zhong Qingshu. Director Zhong was optimistic: "You are in such a high position now, don't I see you on TV every day?"

Both of them laughed immediately. Chen Lin nodded slightly at him, turned around and got on the minibus. The cheering crowd in the distance also rushed over at this time, shouting at Chen Lin in the outer area, which surprised him very much.

"I didn't arrange this. The crowd came here spontaneously after hearing that you were leaving!"

Zhong Qingshu smiled and waved his hand towards the distance. He suddenly felt that this was actually quite good...

After changing my position and job title, some of my previous attitudes and concepts have also changed. (End of this chapter)
