Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

1am

Wu Qun lay on the sofa near the window in his son's bedroom. The guests at home had not left yet, but many of the congressmen were already drunk. Wu Qun asked the servants to get them a batch of temporary lounge chairs so they could take a nap. That's fine, the congressmen don't care, because what happened tonight made many people feel uneasy, especially the lower-level congressmen.

The simultaneous deficit crisis of more than 600 enterprises in the middle and lower classes will directly affect employment, consumption and even education in the region. Although the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has released news through CBV, saying that a solution has been found, no definite information has been obtained. At that time, most of them did not plan to leave. It was very close to the National Assembly, and Wu Qun was the actual leader of several upper-level district councilors.

"I said dad, can you go out? I'm going to bed."

Wu Lei walked out of the bathroom angrily and lay down directly on the bed. He had not taken a vacation for more than two months in a row and worked until 11 o'clock in the evening. Starting today, Wu Lei plans to take a three-day vacation. Xueer also agreed, so Wu Lei came back early today.

"Hey, kid, I'm your dad. Can you really not reveal anything about me?"

Wu Lei frowned and shook his head.

"If I knew, I would tell you dad. I came back so early today. How could I possibly know? This is a secret among high-level officials. My level is not high enough."

"Work hard. Aren't you doing well in the General Affairs Department now? I've heard that there are quite a few girls who are interested in you. If you think about it, find a suitable one and get married as soon as possible. I'd be fine too. Hug the grandkids.”

Wu Lei glanced at his father. The father and son were like this on weekdays, just like friends. There was no ordinary barrier between father and son.

"If I want to go up further, it will basically be impossible within 10 years. If I am transferred to another department, I will be reduced by 0.5 levels to become a director. Don't even think about it as a secretary. The secretaries in the executive department are more ruthless than the last."

Wu Qun shook his head with emotion. What his son said was true, but when he thought about that Le Xiao, Wu Qun felt uncomfortable because he always felt that the guy had faked his identity. But after asking his son several times, he always said that A secretary is a genius among geniuses.

Wu Qun's phone rang and he immediately picked it up.

"Why did Lao Chen have time to call me?"

"Congressman Wu, have you received any news over there?"

Wu Qun's face tightened immediately, he knew something was wrong, but he didn't ask.

"Many of our congressmen are waiting."

Chen Qiao on the other side of the phone fell silent, and Wu Lei looked at his father in confusion. Although he didn't know what it was, if the acting department didn't announce the plan, they could only worry. Members of the acting department would leak internal information to businessmen or businessmen. It is an extremely serious matter for a member of Parliament, ranging from immediate dismissal to expulsion.

After working hard in the practice department for the past few years, Wu Qun deeply understood a truth. The entire practice department is like an extremely rigid safe. When he first became an ordinary clerk, his father warned him seriously not to reveal any information about the practice department. Things can only be disclosed when they reach a certain level, and they need to be disclosed depending on what the matter is and whether it will cause problems. Only the section chief and secretary know how to handle an economic crisis like this.

After a while, Wu Qun's expression became serious.

"Then I really can't help you much, Lao Chen. Waiting for news, I still have guests here."

Wu Qun hung up the phone. Although Wu Lei wanted to ask, he held back.

"Xiao Lei, the business department rejected the 200 million bailout funds raised by more than 30 upper-level companies. Later, Chen Qiao added another 100 million, but was still rejected. The attitude was very firm. Something big is going to happen in the city."

After saying that, Wu Qun directly turned on the phone and pressed the emergency contact button. After receiving the notification, the remaining 199 members of the 20 upper-level districts would rush to the General Affairs Section to gather. Wu Qun rushed into the bathroom to wash his face and wipe it. After cleaning, he hurriedly ran. At this time, Wu Lei on the bed had already stood up. He knew very well that it was not the time to continue sleeping. He had already changed into the white uniform of the General Affairs Department and left directly from the front door with his father.

"What do you think is going on son."

"Of course, the Executive Branch has found a solution that can come up with the bailout money and solve this problem. If it takes over the money from more than 30 large companies, it means that the Executive Branch is powerless and can only compromise in the future. For them In the past few months, everything I have done in the market, but now if I refuse, the situation will be different. After all, the business department has always been extremely tough. If you are criticized, you must fight back, and it will be doubled. Return it."

Wu Qun's phone rang again, and as soon as he picked it up, a burst of hearty laughter came from the phone.

"Old Wu, it seems that Chen Qiao and his gang are about to be defeated. Should we join in the trouble? Just treat it as a favor."

Wu Qun glanced at his son who had disappeared into the alley, stopped, and walked under a streetlight, his eyes a little solemn.

"There shouldn't be any big moves for the time being. Listen carefully and don't take the opportunity to do anything. After all, with the current situation, if anyone takes action, the Business Department will definitely not let it go. After all, this is a zero-sum game. No matter who wins in the end, the sum of the benefits is zero.”

"Old Wu, we all have the same opinion. I think you should understand that the mantis stalks the cicada before the oriole is behind. Why have you become so timid now? Or is it because your son is in the General Affairs Department?"

Wu Qun sighed.

"It's not a matter of being timid or not. Just listen to me."

"That's right, Old Wu is still smart. If there is a city meeting later, please remember to submit an application for us to attend."

Wu Qun hung up the phone. This was originally a good opportunity. As long as the businessmen behind Wu Qun worked hard and the parliamentarians from their faction worked together, Chen Qiao and his gang would not be able to take advantage of it.

Over the years, Wu Qun has been very careful in doing things, especially at the top, because he knows that walking on thin ice is like walking on thin ice, and that when water is full, it overflows. The businessmen who have supported Wu Qun have placed their utmost trust in him over the years, because Wu Qun can By distinguishing clearly which piece should be taken and which piece should not be taken, businessmen have had smooth sailing over the years.

In the past year, Wu Qun has noticed something very interesting since March this year. Chen Qiao and his gang are suppressing the supply chain. Originally, the company did not need these raw materials at all, but they spent money to buy them on the market. The euphemistic name is to build diversified industries for subsidiaries, but in fact it is to suppress the supply chain, including the previous Sanlian Company. The amount of food received has dropped sharply in the past year. Although These things seem to have no connection, but with the crisis in the stock market today, everything became clear.

Everyone is not a fool, and Xingke is even less of a fool. Their approach slows down the circulation of materials needed by small and medium-sized enterprises on the market. This will not only cause vicious competition, but also drag down these small and medium-sized enterprises little by little, making their products lose competitiveness.

But what Wu Qun is worried about now is the illegal mechanical products flowing down from the upper levels. Many companies behind this are privately involved, but in name it is the independent behavior of black craftsmen. Now Wu Qun is most worried about this. point, he was very worried that if the evidence was found and this point was exposed, everyone would have a difficult time.

Wu Qun took out his phone and dialed a number directly.

"Let your group of black craftsmen destroy all sales materials and get all the raw materials directly to the company overnight."

"Old Wu, what's going on?"

Wu Qun said worriedly.

"Don't ask too many questions. When have my words been empty?"

"I know, I'll do it right away and will notify the others."

Wu Qun breathed a sigh of relief and continued to run slowly, but he was still a little worried.

"I hope what I'm worried about won't come true!"
