The officialdom of rebirth

Minister Nian's introduction stunned all the old, middle-aged and young artists present. In fact, when Chen Yang just entered here, because of his sudden words of support for Lin Yu, the big guys already Noticing him, Zhang Bei was very upset and wanted to jump out and criticize him on the spot, but unexpectedly, as soon as the idea came out, within a few seconds, the vice minister of the Ministry of Culture jumped over here. It is really unacceptable to come out with such a scary title, and to come backstage on behalf of the central leadership to condolences to them, the cast and crew.

However, although Chen Yang was wearing an old-fashioned Chinese tunic suit, he looked only in his 30s. Could such a young man really be a dignified member of the Central Committee, a ministerial-level senior official?

If the big guys hadn't heard Vice Minister Nian's introduction with their own ears, they wouldn't have believed it.Moreover, although those present were not from the officialdom, as literary and art workers in the army, they often come into contact with various officials and cadres. From what Chen Yang said just now, it is naturally not difficult to hear that this Chen Yang The secretary knew Lin Yu well, and more or less guessed why Lin Yu was crying.

Thinking of this level, everyone's heart shuddered. It was true that Zhang Bei provoked the incident, but once the big leader in front of him got angry, he didn't know who would be burned.

Everyone else began to feel uneasy, but the instigator, Zhang Bei, was even more horrified at this moment, and her face covered with makeup turned pale in an instant.

It's no wonder that she joined the art troupe at the age of 16. It is very clear that many colleagues in the troupe have the opportunity to get in touch with the leaders because they often perform at evening parties.Many pretty girls were favored by the leaders because of this, and thus became the secret lover of a certain big leader in one step. This kind of thing is not uncommon. It is almost a semi-open secret in the regiment. In fact, Even she herself has an ambiguous relationship with a certain department-level cadre of the Central Office.

Therefore, when she saw Secretary Chen frowning slightly and looking at Lin Yu who was wiping away tears in a hurry, her heart beat wildly, and a very bad premonition suddenly struck her. It's on my mind.She wanted to call her lover right away, but after thinking about it, she decided to forget it.There is a huge gap between department-level cadres and ministerial-level senior officials.She is definitely much more affectionate than ordinary people.If unfortunately I guessed that this little vixen, Lin Yu, was the lover of the young high-ranking official in front of me, then I would be in trouble this time, let alone my lover.Even if the big boss of his lover came forward.I am afraid that this matter will not be settled easily.

Deputy Minister Nian has always been by Chen Yang's side obsequiously.For Chen Yang, a hot new senior official in the domestic political circle, no matter whether he has met him before or not, he certainly has a close and even flattering attitude.Therefore, he has been paying attention to Chen Yang's every move. At this moment, seeing Chen Yang frowning slightly, he followed Chen Yang's gaze, and only then did he see from the messy crowd that the man with his head lowered was flying fast. Lin Yu wiped the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand.

Well, isn't this the little girl who performed the last show just now?Why are you crying?Secretary Chen knows this little girl?

Although Deputy Minister Nian didn't know Lin Yu well, he immediately came to his own conclusion after seeing the situation in front of him. At least, this little girl should be an old acquaintance of Secretary Chen.As the leader of the Ministry of Culture, he has heard a lot about the backstage turmoil caused by the finale performance of the gala. Obviously, the little girl who sang the finale just now must have been ridiculed by others and felt wronged. Will cry.If the finale tonight had been a more experienced artist, I am afraid that such incidents would not have occurred.

Of course, no matter what, since he is an acquaintance of Secretary Chen, he is...

Thinking of this, he, who was originally smiling, darkened his face on the spot, frowned and looked at Lin Yu, who lowered his head, and with his hands behind his back, he sneered and asked the crowd in displeasure, "What the hell is going on? What's the matter? Why is this little comrade crying?"

When Deputy Minister Nian got angry, the scene suddenly became as cold as ice, and the scene became cold.

Everyone, whether it is an old artist like Mr. Jing or Mr. Tian who is highly respected and prestigious in the art field, a middle-aged singer like Zhang Bei, or a newcomer like Lin Yu who has just joined the military art troupe, No one dared to say anything at this time.

Indeed, don't look at a person who is a big-name figure in the outside world who is randomly pulled out from this room, who is a regular guest on CCTV's "Art Life" and other programs, but no matter how big your wrist is, the deputy minister of the Ministry of Culture A high-ranking official only needs one sentence to make you disappear from this circle from now on.

Seeing that no one said anything at the scene, Deputy Minister Nian frowned even more, and snorted again: "What's wrong? No one can tell me, right?"

Vice Minister Nian was full of prestige. While snorting coldly, he looked around the audience coldly for a week. The people he glanced at couldn't help avoiding their eyes, and the big guys didn't dare to talk nonsense.

Chen Yang was a little speechless watching from the sidelines. In fact, he had no mission to attend tonight as a guest, but to be one of the representatives of the serving cadres and accompany those old military leaders to watch the party. After the party, he planned to I will meet Lin Yu some time tonight. After all, since Lin Yu was sent to the General Administration by him, he hasn't had a good chat with the little girl for a while. Seeing Lin Yu's performance on stage tonight is not bad, he I just wanted to go back and encourage Lin Yu. You must know that Lin Yu didn't want to work in the General Political Department at all. Later, she found out that it was her own arrangement that she had to join the art troupe. The little girl was very unhappy about it. of it.

But who knows, as soon as the party ended, Director Zhao Qiang of the Central Office found him again temporarily, saying that Secretary Liu of Hebei Province had originally arranged to visit the cast and crew with the leaders of the Ministry of Culture after the party, but Secretary Liu had to leave in advance I couldn't find anyone to replace him, so I wanted him to represent the Central Committee to condolences to the cast and crew. As a member of the Central Committee, his level was enough.

Usually, after a large political party like this is over, several heads of the Ministry of Culture will personally go to the backstage to condolences to the cast and crew.And the central government will correspondingly let some senior cadres accompany them as representatives to participate in the condolences to the staff as a token of appreciation. This is an unwritten practice, and Chen Yang knows it, so he agreed without thinking too much. .Then he followed the Deputy Minister Nian to the backstage and entered the big room. Who knew that as soon as he entered, he saw someone trying to run on Lin Yu with words, so there was the scene where he spoke for Lin Yu just now.

However, his original intention was to help Lin Yu get out of the siege temporarily, so he didn't think too much about it.After all, although he doesn't know much about the art troupe.But it can be guessed somewhat. For an important party like tonight, Lin Yu, a newcomer who has just arrived, can sing the finale, which will definitely attract a lot of gossip and jealous eyes.to these things.honestly.He didn't take it very seriously, and at the same time, he also felt that Lin Yu had grown up.He should be able to deal with these things. At the same time, he doesn't want to have a bad influence on Lin Yu because of himself. After all, the General Administration is still a relatively strict political work unit. His original intention of arranging Lin Yu to work here is also to hope that She can find happiness at work here, instead of staying at home all day and completely disconnected from society, becoming a canary trapped in a cage. She believes that she will not be happy like that.

Of course, he didn't expect that the young deputy minister of the Ministry of Culture, who knew that he knew Lin Yu, would act so blatantly and seem even more upset than himself.

Seeing a group of literary and art workers being lectured by Deputy Minister Nian like elementary school students, he really couldn't stand it anymore, so he smiled and hurriedly said: "Hehe, Minister Nian, tonight's performance was very successful, comrades No one has discredited your ministry, so don't embarrass your comrades. Don't forget, we are here to express condolences and thanks to you on behalf of the Central Committee. Don't turn around, comrades, report to the Central Committee, we will have nothing to do The law will explain to the organization, hehe."

Chen Yang's gentle attitude made everyone present heave a sigh of relief. After all, everyone knew that Secretary Chen came to visit and encourage everyone on behalf of the Central Committee. He didn't even ask about this matter anymore, and Deputy Minister Nian would never take the opportunity to reprimand everyone again.

The perpetrator, Zhang Bei, immediately heaved a sigh of relief when she heard these words, and she relaxed from the tense state just now, and it wasn't until this time that she realized that she had broken out in a cold sweat at some point in her vest up.

Sure enough, Vice Minister Nian was just expressing his attitude in front of Chen Yang, and he didn't have time to really get angry with the artists of these art troupes, so he walked down the steps, nodded slightly, but still shook his head with some sighs and said: : "Secretary Chen, now, the atmosphere in our country's literary and art circles is not the same as before. In the past, the older generation of artists first valued art and morality. Now it's good. I heard that they were competing for songs at the party every once in a while. Some people in the art troupe even dared to hand me notes just to let the singers in their troupe sing the finale. Hmph, you’re right! I mentioned it many times in meetings in the ministry, yes It's time to put a stop to this trend!"

After a pause, he looked at the bewildered Lin Yu and said, "The little comrade Zongzheng was the one who sang the last song just now, hmph, I see, some people must be jealous that other little comrades sang the finale song." , Looking back, as soon as the performance is over, he will pretend to be a veteran in the backstage, and even make him cry. I think this kind of person has a problem with his personal quality."

Chen Yang also shook his head with a smile, but he was not interested in intervening in the topic of Deputy Minister Nian. He just smiled and said, "Little comrade Lin Yu is an old acquaintance with me. He is good at everything in business, but he likes to cry. Old problems are not good."

After speaking, he smiled and waved to Lin Yu again: "Comrade Lin Yu, come here."

Ever since Chen Yang entered this backstage room, Lin Yu has been in a state of being out of her mind. First of all, she never expected why Chen Yang would suddenly appear in this backstage room, and it happened just when she felt extremely helpless. , and then she helped herself out of the siege with a few words. Of course, no matter when and where, her first feeling when she saw Chen Yang was naturally extremely happy. In fact, as early as half a month ago, she received a task from the regiment. After participating in tonight's performance, she called Chen Yang immediately. She hoped that Chen Yang could come to see her first performance in the art troupe, but unfortunately, the words came to her tongue several times on the phone.But because she was worried about disturbing Chen Yang's work, she didn't dare to tell him, but who knew, Chen Yang actually came, and after the party, he came backstage to see her in person, which made her heart filled with happiness Yes, but what followed was that she was in a bad situation at the moment. Not only was she crying, but she seemed to be causing trouble to Chen Yang again.This made her feel uneasy again.That's why she kept her head down just now, not daring to look at Chen Yang, and at the same time hurriedly tried to wipe away her tears.

At this time, when she heard Chen Yang beckoning herself to go over, her heart skipped a beat.Although he longed to throw himself into Chen Yang's arms.But still hesitated at this time.I'm afraid that if someone finds out my relationship with Chen Yang, what should I do?

She looked at Chen Yang timidly, but seeing Chen Yang smiling and nodding at her, she lowered her head a little embarrassedly.He walked up to Chen Yang cautiously, and didn't dare to raise his eyes to look at Chen Yang after stopping. He just greeted him softly with some nervousness: "Chen, Secretary Chen, hello."

Chen Yang didn't mind the gazes around him, he touched her head very affectionately, and encouraged her with a smile: "Hehe, Xiao Lin, your performance tonight is very good, it is worthy of praise, in the future, what will happen to you again?" If you can’t solve the problem, or you have suffered some grievance, don’t cry, you can report it to the superior through normal channels! Moreover, you are now a soldier of the People’s Liberation Army, you have to be stronger, this crying problem can I need to change it!"

"Secretary Chen, I understand, I, I will definitely correct my shortcomings in the future."

Lin Yu seemed to have gained confidence from Chen Yang's touch. He mustered up the courage to raise his face to look at Chen Yang, and then nodded vigorously.

Next, Chen Yang smiled and encouraged Lin Yu in front of everyone, and his words also sounded a wake-up call to other people present, clearly expressing his attitude, Lin Yu and himself The central government official is an old acquaintance, let's forget about it tonight, whoever dares to bully her in the future, he should first weigh his own weight before talking.He believed that after talking with Lin Yu in such a pleasant manner for a while, as long as he was not too stupid, he would naturally understand the implication in his words, and he should be able to know that Lin Yu was someone they could not afford to offend.

Sure enough, when everyone at the scene looked at Lin Yu again, they unconsciously felt awe, and no one dared to regard her as an ordinary newcomer who had just been specially recruited from the local area.

That's right, it turns out that Xiao Lin's backstage is Secretary Chen. Hearing the way Secretary Chen talks to Xiao Lin, he treats Xiao Lin like his own sister. Who would dare to offend Xiao Lin so stupidly.At the same time, when everyone thought about it, it was no wonder that Xiao Lin was able to take the lead in singing the finale at such an important gala just a few days after joining the group.

Of course, Chen Yang didn't know that besides helping Lin Yu solve a lot of troubles in the future, his appearance tonight also had a very bad side effect, that is, after that, Lin Yu won another big party When singing the finale, the colleagues in the troupe will inevitably wear colored glasses to see her. They always feel that she is the pillar of the General Political Department because of her relationship rather than her strength. At the same time, she gets along with her at work. When she was young, she was always afraid to approach her, and was even a little afraid of her, which resulted in her having few friends in the regiment.

This actually deviates from Chen Yang's original intention of arranging Lin Yu into the Zongzheng Song and Dance Troupe in a low-key manner. Compared with Chen Yang, he hopes that she can live a normal life, so that she can truly gain from work and be in the place she is interested in. Realize your own life value.It's just that things in the world often backfire. His intentions are good, but his inadvertent appearance has done Lin Yu a disservice.

Afterwards, Chen Yang told a group of old, middle-aged and young artists in the backstage room some routines to cheer everyone up. This was considered to be the completion of the task. Accompanied by Vice Minister Nian, he left the backstage room.

As soon as the leaders left, the oppressive atmosphere in the backstage room immediately dissipated, and everyone was busy again, talking and laughing, but after the previous incident, no one dared to mention the previous incident to let Lin The matter of not being able to come to Taiwan is over, and everyone is engaged in literature and art professionally. No matter how they think about it, at least they show that everyone is as if the unpleasant things did not happen before. They just wait for Lin Yu to sit back on her table again. After the makeup remover, the big guy pretended to cast a curious glance at her back from time to time. Obviously, everyone still can't believe it. This little guy who talks very little in the group looks very innocent. The girl has such a profound background.

Of course, Lin Yu didn't know what everyone thought of him behind his back.In fact, she doesn't care. It doesn't matter if others treat her leniently, don't like her, hate her, envy her, whatever, she doesn't really care about it. It's Chen Yang's intention for her to work in the Zongzheng Song and Dance Troupe. I don't really want to come here, let alone value the so-called fame and fortune.If she wants to be famous, she will not retreat when she is most popular.As for what becomes the pillar of the regiment, she has never considered this kind of issue. She has already arranged her future life, that is, to accompany Chen Yang with peace of mind and be a happy little woman. of.She doesn't mind being in the house all day.In fact, her wish has always been to be by Chen Yang's side.It's okay to say she has no ambitions, or she's a canary, she thinks there's nothing wrong with it.As long as Chen Yang doesn't hate her, so that she can stay by Chen Yang's side for the rest of her life and see Chen Yang from time to time, she will be satisfied.

Sitting alone in front of the dressing table, thinking about her own thoughts silently, maybe because Chen Yang appeared in this room just now, she suddenly felt that this room seemed to be alive, at least, her current mood It's much better than when he just came back from the stage, even better than when he shook hands with the principal.Especially when she thought that Chen Yang should have seen her performance earlier, she felt a little inexplicably happy, but at the same time a little apprehensive, wondering how she performed just now, would Chen Yang like to listen to the songs she sang?

Well, my colleagues all congratulated me. Even Captain Peng said that I performed very well, and said that those old leaders praised me for singing well. Brother Yang should also like it, right?

Thinking of this, Lin Yu felt relieved a lot, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled into a slight arc.

Obviously, at this moment, she is happy.

But then I became a little annoyed, why am I so stupid, if I knew Brother Yang was under the stage just now, I should have looked for it carefully, oops, I really want to talk to Brother Yang for a while, can I How about calling him now?

Thinking of this, she involuntarily took out her mobile phone, but after dialing Chen Yang's number, she hesitated again, wondering if she should just dial it.

After a while, she put the phone back on the table. Although she had a lot to say to Chen Yang, she knew that Chen Yang would definitely go back to live in the courtyard tonight.

At this moment, the screen of the mobile phone that had just been placed on the table suddenly flickered, and a short message came in.

She was overjoyed, and quickly picked it up to take a look.

"Little girl, I sang very well tonight. I like to listen to it very much, but don't be proud in the future!"

A few short words made her extremely happy. Nothing could make her happier than getting Chen Yang's personal affirmation.

"Hehe, Brother Yang also said that he likes to hear me sing!"

She couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing lightly. At this moment, she smiled inadvertently. This bright and beautiful smile can fascinate all living beings. Unfortunately, only a few people are lucky enough to see it.

"Ahem! That"

At this time, an untimely voice interrupted her joy.

Lin Yu looked back, but Zhang Bei appeared next to the makeup removal table at some point. She quickly stood up while leaning on the armchair, and said, "Ah, Teacher Zhang!"

"Hehe, Xiao Lin, sit down, sit down quickly!"

Zhang Bei hurriedly said with a smile on his face.

Lin Yu was confused, afraid that Teacher Zhang would come to find fault with her again for no reason, so he didn't dare to sit down, but looked at Zhang Bei warily.

"Hehe, that, Sister Xiaolin, look, we are all colleagues, look at my sister's broken mouth, what should I say, what happened just now is all my sister's fault, my sister can't spit ivory out of her dog's mouth, My sister will pay you for this, so don't be angry with my sister, okay?"

After hesitating for a long time, Zhang Bei blushed and expressed his intention.It turned out that she had thought about it for a long time before, and she always felt that the leader had left, but this matter might not be over. In the end, she decided to come over and apologize to Lin Yu in person. Otherwise, she might not be able to sleep when she goes back tonight. .

Lin Yu didn't expect her to play such a role at all. Zhang Zhang, who just used extremely mean words to tease and run on him, how could he become his sister in the blink of an eye?

In fact, Lin Yu pretended that Chen Yang was the only one in his heart, and never thought of other things at all, and she has always been generous to others and has a gentle temper. At this time, she was shocked when she heard Teacher Zhang apologize to herself in a low voice. After a jump, she quickly stammered and waved her hands: "Zhang, Mr. Zhang, I'm not, I'm not angry with you."

Zhang Bei was also afraid that she would frighten Lin Yu by being too abrupt. Seeing that she had expressed her meaning, other people around her looked at her one after another. She also wanted to save face, so she blushed and said with a sneer: "Hehe, I know Sister Xiaolin, you'd better talk, as long as you don't blame sister."

After all, under the astonished eyes of everyone, he hurried back to his seat as if fleeing.

"Hehe, Xiao Zhang has a good attitude. If you know your mistakes and you can correct them, I think it is worth learning from everyone! I also want to criticize myself. How can a simple and kind comrade like Xiao Lin be confused with those smoky things in the entertainment industry?" Woolen cloth."

Teacher Jing summed it up with a smile, and the others nodded their heads in agreement. No matter if they were sincere or not, they all looked at Lin Yu with kindness.

Amid the kind smiles from time to time from the seniors in the literary and art circles, Lin Yu always felt a little embarrassed. Originally, her make-up was very light, and she just put it on briefly before leaving the backstage room quickly.

The troupe arranges a car to pick them up and drop them off, and Lin Yu is also assigned a small dormitory with a single room in the troupe. However, the art troupe is not a school after all, and the management is relatively loose, especially after the performance task is completed, generally there is a good job. It's a few days off, so Lin Yu doesn't plan to go back to the regiment's dormitory tonight. She used her savings to buy a small high-rise apartment in Yanjing and decorated it herself. She was arranged to work in the regiment, and she had been living in Huahai before, so she hadn't had time to stay for a few days yet.

Tonight, I want to go back to my little world to have a look.

A person walked out of the compound of the Great Hall of the People. It was still early at this time, just after 10:30. There were still many people on the street and the cars were constantly flowing. After walking a few steps, she found a nearby taxi stand. Standing there waiting for a taxi.

But I was still hesitating in my heart, whether to go back to my little house tonight or go directly to the courtyard.

Of course, she wanted to go to the courtyard the most. Even if she couldn't really say a few words to Brother Yang, it would be good to know that Brother Yang was in the house.But she was very afraid that she would make Miss Ruoan unhappy. After all, Brother Yang ran over by himself just after returning to Beijing, which was too much.Although she would definitely go to the courtyard to accompany Ruonan as long as she wasn't staying in the regiment's dormitory during this time, it wasn't because Brother Yang wasn't there.Brother Yang is back in Beijing this time, it seems that it is not good for him to go there again.

Are you going or not?

Alas, it would be great if Miss Xian'er was also in Beijing.

The little girl is in trouble. (to be continued...)
