anwhile, Qiu Tu also slowly said, "Now, I will ask these questions once again."
"Do you have the backing of a large family or powerful force? Are you protected by the higher-ups in the Sanctuary, and do you have the support of Bureau Chiefs below?"
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Cao Dabiao quickly let out a "heh heh" and chuckled twice, saying, "Brother Tu, you know what kind of person I am."
"I don't have any of those backgrounds, protections, or supports."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu retorted, "Indeed. You have nothing, so on what basis did you obtain the position of Deputy Chief of the Action Division?"
"So many Principal Staff mbers want to be promoted to this position and have not succeeded. Have you not considered if there could be a problem with your rapid promotion?"
"And with no one above you, aren't you afraid that others will be envious, jealous, and then start targeting you, reporting you?"
"If soone were indeed targeting you, reporting you, I could protect you once, twice, even thrice. But can I protect you every ti?"
By the end, Qiu Tu let out a long sigh and then earnestly said, "So, Big Biao, don't be fooled. This is to 'promote and kill' you!"
"Soone wants to target Director Tang and by 'promoting and killing' you."
"If you refuse this position, there's no issue, but if you really accept it, you'll be a live target waiting for them to co after."
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, the face of Cao Dabiao on the other end of the phone instantly turned pale.
He was not a fool; he was just a bit too greedy and easily blinded by benefits.
Thus, as Qiu Tu broke down and spelled out everything for him, everything beca clear all at once.
He started sweating profusely.
[Cao Dabiao Loyalty 10]
Seeing the notification that popped up, Qiu Tu knew that Cao Dabiao had listened and understood the painstaking care he had for him.
It was only a pity that such a big benefit would be difficult for anyone to give up, so there was still a bit of reluctance in his heart.
Thinking this, Qiu Tu then slowly said, "Big Biao, actually... I already talked about you with Director Tang this morning."
"I was hoping to add more responsibilities for you."
"But also, we need to consider your future developnt."
"So, this ti I was thinking of first promoting your rank from Deputy Staff to Principal Staff, and to keep a low profile, you could transition through a less conspicuous departnt in the Administrative Office."
"A promotion from Deputy Head of a powerful departnt to Principal Staff of the Lengshui Yan would attract much less criticism."
"After a period of transition, we will then transfer you back to the Political Departnt, and by then, it will not attract unnecessary attention."
Upon hearing Qiu Tu's genuine concern in his arrangents, Cao Dabiao felt deeply touched.
Comparing the two career paths, even a fool could see the difference.
The earnest care from Qiu Tu and the career path he ticulously designed for him, compared to the skip-level promotion offered by the Organizational Departnt, was incomparably more astute.
It would not only similarly empower him but also minimize jealousy and impact, avoiding becoming a target for being the leading bird.
With these thoughts, Cao Dabiao felt choked up for a mont.
This ti, he did not resort to the usual polished rhetoric. Hanging his head in regret on the other end of the phone, he said, "Brother Tu, I'm sorry...."
"Just now in my heart...."
Qiu Tu didn't let Cao Dabiao finish his sentence but directly interrupted him, "Big Biao, there's no need for so many explanations between us."
"Everyone wants a promotion, a raise."
"Put yourself in their shoes. If soone prevented from moving up to such a good position, I probably would have complaints too."
With that, Qiu Tu paused and then firmly declared, "And this is exactly what those schers want to achieve!"
Qiu Tu said, "If I agree to your promotion, they will make you a target. By going after you, they aim to get to ."
"And if I don't agree to your promotion, they can easily sow discord between you and ."
"Their hearts are so dark."
After listening to Qiu Tu's words, Cao Dabiao finally completely understood the conspiracy of the Organizational Departnt.
With a resolute face, he said, "Brother Tu! Don't worry, I will go to the organization and make a fuss now. Say I don't want to be Deputy Division Chief, and let them find another candidate!"
[Cao Dabiao Loyalty 4, current Loyalty 98]
Hearing Cao Dabiao's words and seeing his restored Loyalty, Qiu Tu felt reassured. He humd in response, then cautioned, "In such a sensitive ti, be very careful...."
Cao Dabiao humd in acknowledgnt.
After hanging up the phone, Qiu Tu quietly pondered for a few seconds, then took out his communicator and made calls to key confidants like Eagle, Ah-Kun, and Chen Feng.
As expected, they had all received notices from the Organizational Departnt, saying they were recomnded by Qiu Tu for position promotions.
However, unlike Cao Dabiao, they were obviously more cautious.
So, Eagle and Ah-Kun went but politely declined the promotion, opting to consider it for now, whereas Chen Feng outright rejected the offer over the phone due to health concerns.
Afterwards, the three prepared to call Qiu Tu to inquire about the situation, only to find the line busy the whole ti.
Now, with advice from Qiu Tu, they imdiately understood that it was the enemy's plot.
Qiu Tu told them to alert their subordinates, and then he hung up the phone.
After ending the call, Qiu Tu sent a ssage to Tang Feifei, explaining the current situation.
Tang Feifei was likely in a eting with Yu Zhengyi and Shi Youxin, so she simply replied with a "Hmm."
