My courtyard shelter

The main attendees were Director Hu of the Municipal Bureau, representatives of various fire brigades participating in the firefighting operation, representatives of other enterprises, and Mayor He and others.

Of course, Xu Dong and seven others were also on the list.

There were more than 200 people at the scene, filling up most of the lecture hall. They were arranged in the first row, which was very eye-catching.

First, Mayor He delivered a short speech, without the usual official jargon, and the content directly pointed to the fire problem itself, which was quite thought-provoking.

Then came General Manager Tan's on-site report.

It was really not easy for General Manager Tan. He had to bow down every few words. No matter what, this attitude of admitting mistakes was still good.

Half an hour later, it was finally the highlight of this commendation meeting. Director Hu read out the commendation order in public. .

The content related to Xu Dong and others is as follows:

First, the Municipal Power Company Security Department was awarded the first-class collective merit;

Second, Xu Dong was awarded the first-class individual merit;

Third, Lao Fang and six other people were awarded the second-class individual merit;

Finally, Xu Dong was awarded the honorary title of "Advanced Individual in Fire Protection Construction of the Municipal Department-level Leading Cadres".

Next, Director Hu and Mayor He personally presented medals, certificates and bonuses to the units and individuals who were commended and rewarded.

The first award to be awarded was the first-class collective merit of the Security Department, which was also the only first-class collective merit on the scene.

Amidst warm applause, Xu Dong took his subordinates to the rostrum.

The person who presented the award was Mayor He.

"Congratulations."

"Thank you!"

Xu Dong quickly stretched out his hands and shook hands with Mayor He, and then took the plaque and certificate of "First-class Collective Merit" from him.

Mayor He smiled and patted Xu Dong on the shoulder to show encouragement, and then shook hands with Xiang Xin and others one by one, and each of them said a word or two, and finally took a group photo.

After the group awards were presented, the next was the individual awards. Xu Dong was the first to go on stage again. He was also the only individual first-class merit. The applause from all around surged like a tide.

The guest of honor this time was Director Hu.

"You are indeed young and promising."

Xu Dong subconsciously said modestly: "It's just a little bit of merit, not worth mentioning."

Director Hu was stunned for a moment, and immediately remembered this "young man" who spoke a little out of line.

Awarding medals, shaking hands, taking photos as a souvenir.

After stepping down, Xu Dong reached out and touched the medal of honor on his chest, feeling very satisfied for a while.

Xiang Xin grabbed the envelope containing the bonus.

"Wow, there are actually 20,000 yuan, and I don't know how much the second-class merit is?"

"The second-class individual merit is 10,000."

Lao Fang replied.

"Ten thousand is not bad, which is equivalent to an extra half month's salary."

Xu Dong coughed: "Stop talking, pay attention to your image."

Everyone instantly returned to sitting upright.

Half an hour later, the award ceremony was over.

Director Hu made a summary speech, requiring all branches and affiliated departments to be vigilant at all times and prevent problems from happening.

Finally, he called on everyone to take Xu Dong as an example and learn from him. No matter where they are, they should not forget their original intentions.

…

At half past ten, the commendation meeting officially ended.

However, the group did not leave immediately. Mayor He summoned the most popular Section Chief Xu.

Xu Dong followed Secretary Yao into an office.

"Xiao Xu, we meet again."

Mayor He stood up and gave face.

"Hello, Mayor He!"

Xu Dong hurried forward and grasped the other party's right hand that he had stretched out.

After some politeness, the two sat on the sofa together. Secretary Yao brought a pot of tea and left immediately.

Xu Dong filled Mayor He's tea.

Mayor He said, "Xiao Xu, congratulations, a first-class collective merit and an individual first-class merit, you have made a big splash this time."

"To be honest, I am still dizzy now. To be honest, I didn't expect that the higher-ups would take the fire at Zhiyi Factory so seriously."

"It's impossible not to take it seriously. Fortunately, I was lucky this time and it didn't cause a catastrophic disaster. Otherwise, I would have to resign as the mayor and apologize."

Mayor He couldn't help but sigh.

This was the second time Xu Dong heard of "a catastrophic disaster."

It seems that the leaders are not fools. They must have deduced the worst result. I guess many people were scared out of their wits.

"Mayor He, you are a lucky person."

Xu Dong flattered him a little.

Mayor He shook his head: "What do you mean by good luck? If there is such a thing, it must be you, Xu Dong. I am really blessed by you this time."

"No, no, that's too much."

"Okay, let's not talk about this." Mayor He waved his hand, "I asked you to come here this time, on the one hand, to congratulate you in person, and on the other hand, I also want to ask for your opinion on something."

"Please go ahead." Xu Dong suddenly became serious.

"This matter is actually related to your family."

"Oh, really?"

Mayor He nodded: "The first phase of the Dayang Road Bakery is almost completed, with a total of 30 production lines and an annual output of 500,000 tons of bread.

In view of the importance of the bakery, Director Hu and I have already discussed and are ready to set up a branch in the factory to ensure that the bakery is foolproof."

"This is a good thing!" Xu Dong agreed.

"Are you willing to take over this branch?" Mayor He asked directly.

Xu Dong pointed at himself: "Me?"

"Yes, this branch has a heavy responsibility. We need a smart and capable director. You are young and capable, and you are the most suitable candidate."

Xu Dong shook his head hurriedly:

"Mayor He, no, no, I am not from a professional background. I can be a security guard, but I don't have the ability to do the work of a policeman."

"Don't be modest. I have asked your General Manager Liao. He said that you have excellent work ability and are very serious and responsible. Being a branch director will definitely not be a problem for you." Mayor He advised.

Xu Dong almost wanted to curse. If he was willing to go to the bakery, he might as well be a general manager directly. Why should he be a branch director?

Moreover, the most important thing is that in a few years, he will take over Director Cao. If he leaves the company at this time, it would be like picking up sesame seeds and throwing away watermelons!

Besides, the work in the branch is so tiring, and even life-threatening. He would be stupid to go.

"Mayor He, I really can't do it. Please don't embarrass me. I suggest you find an experienced old policeman. This is the safest choice."

"Xiao Xu, if you have any difficulties, just tell me directly. If it's Director Xu, don't worry. I'll do the work for you." Mayor He frowned.

"No, no." Xu Dong took a sip of tea from the teacup, and then advised earnestly:

"Mayor He, listen to me, I have only been in the security department for three years, and I don't have much experience. I really can't be the director. You should find someone else!"

Mayor He saw that Xu Dong's attitude was very tough, and his explanation seemed to make sense, so he gave up the idea.

After all, a forced melon is not sweet!

If you bring emotions to work, sooner or later something will happen, which is unwise!
