An accident that shouldn't have happened occurred, causing casualties and exposing many problems. Lessons need to be learned.

As the actual head of the investigation team, Xiang Ning is still unable to return home. Sitting at the desk in the hotel room, she repeatedly recalls the accident's process in her mind, combines her colleagues' opinions, and swiftly drafts recommendations on the exposed issues of the accident.

Not being able to return now doesn't mean not returning in the afternoon.

Han Yu packed his luggage, tidied the bed sheets, and habitually stuffed the hotel's complimentary disposable toothpaste, toothbrush, small soap, small comb, sewing kit, and two bottles of mineral water into his bag.

He was about to boil some water to fill his cup for the journey back when Xiang Ning turned and said, "San'er, I've thought it over and came up with three points. Can you see if there's anything to add?"

"I'm not very familiar with maritime work."

"If you don't understand, why would they invite you here?"

Xiang Ning glared at him, picked up the freshly written suggestions, and handed them over.

Han Yu took a look and immediately chuckled. Apparently, after nearly two hours at the desk, the senior only wrote three points, totaling less than a hundred words.

When leaders ask you to write materials, regardless of the content, the word count can't be too short.

It should be two or three pages to at least show you've taken it seriously and worked hard on it.

The quality of the material depends on individual knowledge and professional level; after all, not everyone is as talented as Director Yu.

It's said that some leaders, to demonstrate their high level, will request "minor revisions" for well-written drafts and "major revisions" for poorly written ones. Either way, revisions are inevitable; constant changes are necessary! 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Having been influenced by Director Yu, Han Yu gained some insight into writing materials.

He initially thought the senior didn't like writing materials, tossing dozens of words to fool the superiors. After reading it, he realized she took her job very seriously but was used to being straightforward and concise due to her long-term front-line law enforcement work.

Firstly, suggest that relevant departments strengthen safety awareness education for navigational personnel, improve ship technical skills, and enhance a sense of responsibility.

Secondly, suggest special operational training for navigational personnel. Navigational personnel on first and second-class ships on the Yangtze River should obtain a "Radar Operator Qualification Certificate."

Additionally, increase the intensity of crew follow-up assessments, learn from advanced foreign experiences, implement a "point system" for offenders, and revoke the qualifications of certified crew with poor operational skills.

"All the points are spot on, pretty good."

"Really?"

"Concise and to the point, really quite good."

Xiang Ning knew the word count was a bit short, appearing not "formal" enough, and couldn't help but laugh and ask, "Do I just submit it like this?"

"Submit it so we can hand it to Director Tang earlier and go home sooner," Han Yu returned the material to her, picked up the electric kettle, and filled it with tap water in the bathroom before plugging it in.

Having been out for several days, Xiang Ning was eager to return home. But she felt uneasy about submitting it like that, full of anticipation, saying, "Can you help me think if there's anything to add?"

Han Yu thought for a moment, sat down, and said, "Then add a suggestion to improve safety management regulations and formulate specific rules prohibiting dangerous goods ships and ferries from navigating under poor visibility conditions."

"This involves legal formulation!"

"Just write it down first. Whether the superiors adopt it is their concern. Besides, you need to pad the word count now."

"True, help me think more, help me pad it more."

"Then add another one: formulate safety supervision regulations for trial ships."

Whether the superiors adopt it is their concern. This made Xiang Ning's eyes light up. She noted down her junior's two additional points, drew inferences from the just-investigated accident, and added three more points.

Transcribe onto blank official paper.

Write larger and leave a line between each point during "layout." This way, it looks more organized and, more importantly, makes the material content appear "fuller."

Just as Xiang Ning confirmed no typos and was about to deliver the materials to the Jiangnan Maritime Bureau across the street, there was a knock at the door. When opened, two senior leaders had actually come personally.

"Director Tang, Director Huang, the materials just finished. I was about to send them to you. Why did you both come over?"

Xiang Ning found it very strange.

Han Yu was equally surprised, quickly inviting Director Tang and Huang Yuanchang to sit. He turned his back to them, pulled out the small packet of tea he had stuffed in earlier from the bag, and brewed tea with freshly boiled water in their cups.

"Salted Fish, don't bother; we… we came to see you off and have a chat."

"No worries, it's almost ready."

"To senior leaders, there's nothing to send off. We're not outsiders, besides, you're so busy with work," Xiang Ning smiled and quickly handed over the materials.

"Well summarized, all spot on." Director Tang glanced at it and casually handed it to Huang Yuanchang.

You didn't even look carefully, how do you know my summary is good?

While Xiang Ning was silently complaining, Director Tang got straight to the point: "Ningning, Yuanchang here needs to strengthen the intensity of water law enforcement. Director Mei has a good impression of you and suggested transferring you to Jiangcheng to work. Director Yang also believes you're very capable. He's a bit busy now and entrusted Yuanchang and me to seek your opinion."

They actually want to transfer the senior to work in Jiangcheng, are they mistaken!

Han Yu instinctively raised his head and looked at his senior.
