(Written in the front to avoid shaming, this article is a novel, so please don’t apply the so-called one dish, one soup, four dishes, one soup or other so-called government dinner standards to view this plot, thank you.)

The dinner party held in Putuo District this time is quite large. Because Putuo District itself is one of the best-developed districts in Huaihai City, just like what Sister Niu said, the district government is not short of money. Although this kind of meeting and dinner, which represents the face of the district government, will not be too extravagant and wasteful, it will not be too shabby either.

When Zhang Tong and Xiao Xiao walked into the gathering with their heads held high, it was actually a little early. After all, Zhang Tong and others had to come earlier, and the district leaders would come later. But since it's a buffet, there's no need to wait until everyone is here before starting the meal. For this party, Zhang Tong still dressed up before going out.

That's right, it was the same dress he wore when he first went to the district government. He combed his hair into a very imposing big back and sprayed gel water to shape it. Then put on a modernized version of the stand-collar tunic and black leather shoes from last time. When he took Xiao Xiao to the entrance of the venue, the district government personnel in charge of reception looked at Zhang Tong's appearance and asked cautiously, "Who are you?"

"I came to attend the dinner meeting of the outstanding representatives of the returnees." Zhang Tong lowered his head and brushed the fluff on his chest that he didn't know when.

"Then she is?" The staff glanced at Xiao Xiao and asked Zhang Tong cautiously.

"Together. Can I go in?" Zhang Tong brushed off the fluff on his chest, then raised his head and glanced at the staff. This inexplicable look made the staff tremble, and he said in a hurry: "Yes, please, please, please."

Zhang Tong and Xiao Xiao entered the venue smoothly. Since Big Sister Niu didn't say that she couldn't bring her family members, Zhang Tong took it as the fact that she could bring her family members at this party. He and Xiao Xiao walked in with their heads held high, and Xiao Xiao wondered as they walked in, "Hey, boss, don't you need to verify your identity for this kind of gathering? For example, you need to check your ID card, check the list, etc. Is it?"

"This kind of small banquet is not necessary." Zhang Tong waved his hand: "There are no big leaders here, and there is nothing to check in a place where even a deputy district chief will not come. Besides, the district government is now engaging in people-friendly services. Ah, that was the case when I went to the district government last time, whoever I asked was politely answered, and offered to help me lead the way.”

Xiao Xiao poked her chin with her index finger and thought, "Is that so?"

"Of course it is!" Zhang Tong said with certainty.

"But there seems to be something wrong." Xiao Xiao felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what was wrong. Forget it, I'm here to eat anyway, those complicated things have nothing to do with me, why do I care so much!

At the reception, a rookie who just became a civil servant asked curiously to his senior: "Senior, we haven't checked the identity of the person who just entered, can we just go in?"

"You're stupid. People can tell they're the leader at a glance, and you still need to check their identity? Are you going to make trouble for the leader or yourself?" The senior taught the newcomer a lesson.

"But what if he is a bad guy?" Xin Ding was a little aggrieved after being taught a lesson.

"What's the worst thing you can do if you come to a buffet? It's just eating and drinking. Is the district government short of this money?!" The senior said with a frown. He said softly, "You just entered the system, and you don't understand many things. Let me teach you. It is very difficult for the leader to promote you, but it is very easy to give you shoes. In the system You have to know who you can offend and who you can't!"

"But, that person doesn't look very old, so why is he the leader?" Xin Ding was still a little unconvinced.

The senior got angry: "You, you, if you weren't the boyfriend of my third aunt's daughter's cousin, I really wouldn't be bothered to teach you. Use your pig's brain to think about it, people can go in for dinner and meetings, We can only do reception at the door, even if he is not a leader but just an ordinary clerk like us. But at least he has a better relationship with the leader than we do. Is it necessary to offend such a colleague for such a shit?!"

"He doesn't look familiar, I don't even know him."

"Nonsense! The whole Putu District is so big, ten times bigger than your hometown's county! Can you know all the civil servants in the whole Putu District?" The most important thing in going on is not how much credit you make but not to make mistakes! Only those who have the ability and background can be promoted by virtue of meritorious service, and ordinary staff like us who have no ability and no background can only rely on not making mistakes! Understand? Compared with those colleagues, as long as they make mistakes and we don't make mistakes, then we are better than them and better than them! As long as we don't make mistakes, we can properly flatter our leaders and build a good relationship with colleagues, and we have enough qualifications We little people can always climb the ladder."

"But what if someone has done meritorious service?" Xin Ding seemed to be a little unclear.

"Hehe." The senior smiled faintly: "People are forgetful. What everyone is most likely to remember is a person's shortcomings rather than a person's strengths. A basket of eggs is always in front of you. Eggs with fly stings are the most attractive. Even if ninety-nine eggs in a basket of one hundred eggs are good, as long as there is one bad egg, the basket of eggs will be dragged down. Doubt is broken. And a person’s mistakes in the team are like that bad egg. As long as someone labels it, don’t expect to tear it off.” As an old man who has been in the team for nearly ten years , Senior understands the survival rules of this society too well.

It is not easy for a small person to stand out, and of course it is easy to make a difference, but at the same time it is easy to fall into the abyss. Those who have the ability or background may climb up from the abyss, such as Director Jiang Hua in the district. And if a little guy like him falls into the abyss, he will never make it out. So, compared to how much credit you have made, it is the most important thing for a small person like yourself not to make mistakes. If a person can't distinguish his position in society and in the team, then his life must be full of tragedies.

The rookie who just graduated from university and passed the national examination and finally became a member of the system listened to his senior's advice, he opened his mouth for a long time and did not say a word. The depth of the water in the society made him, a rookie who just entered the society, feel a kind of fear inexplicably. He suddenly felt that the so-called intrigue he used to have in the school's student union was really too childish.

The banquet held by the district government was held in the banquet hall of a four-star hotel in the district. Although the district government is very rich in money, they can go directly to five-star hotels for dinner or something. But the district government still won't do this, because it's too ostentatious, and it's easy to be criticized.

The main banquet hall of a four-star hotel is quite large, and can hold thirty round tables for ten people. Some office staff in the district government also participated in this gathering. After all, if this kind of gathering is held, the people below must have a tooth-beating ceremony. Leadership and management of subordinate employees must also know what it means to be kind and powerful!

And there were quite a few returnees. All the members of Zhang Tong's returnee meeting last time were there, and there were some others Zhang Tong hadn't seen. They were probably recruited by the district government as candidates. Zhang Tong didn't care much about this, because he had already been designated as one of the top ten outstanding representatives!

Zhang Tong originally saw a few returnees he had met last time, such as Wei Dayong who was a training partner for the Huaihai women's wrestling team, and Bai Zhantang who was a side actor in Hengdian. Zhang Tong originally planned to say hello. As a result, he hadn't walked into the two of them when he heard an exclamation from the entrance.

"This, isn't this Li Lianlong, the leading actor in "Martial Arts Universe" and "Break the Sphere"?!"
