Liu Haotian, who was originally in a meeting, heard the conversation in the distance, and his face darkened immediately. He immediately put down everyone around him and ran 200 meters away.
At the scene, all the deputy mayors were a little confused. They didn't quite understand why Liu Haotian ran away suddenly.
Although they also heard the hoarse roar coming from the distance, they couldn't hear clearly what the other party said.
Seeing Liu Haotian rushing over, everyone could only follow him closely.
Liu Haotian stepped downstairs. At this moment, on the roof of a 7-story building, an old man in his 70s was already sitting on the edge of the top floor, preparing to jump off.
Downstairs, many enthusiastic people took out their own quilts and put them under them. Some people were actively contacting 120 and firefighters.
Liu Haotian came downstairs, looked up at the old man above and said, "Hello, old man, I am Liu Haotian, the mayor of Xilin City. If you have anything, you can tell me directly. Don't let it get to you."
Upstairs, the old man shook his head vigorously: "Don't lie to me. Liu Haotian is the mayor of Xilin City. How could he come to this place just for me, a stinky vegetable seller? Impossible!
Please stop trying to persuade me. My life has lost its meaning. I must die today."
Liu Haotian took a deep breath: "Old man, I am indeed Liu Haotian. If you don't believe it, you can ask the suppliers of the community group buying platform around you who come to Sanjiangcang to defend your rights. I have just told the city's upcoming
I have made it very clear to them the relevant policies of these group buying platforms that have impacted your survival. Here, I also make a promise to you and all our fellow villagers in Xilin City that community group buying platforms can develop in our Xilin City in the future.
, However, if they dare to use the strategy of low-price dumping to plunder the market, then what awaits them will be heavy punishment. No matter how much they make in our Xilin City, they will have to spit out every detail, and this money
, it will all be used to subsidize small traders like you!
As the mayor of Xilin City, I can assure you that our Xilin City Party Committee and Municipal Government have always focused on the interests of the people and regarded the interests of the people as more important than the sky. Anyone who wants to harvest the pockets of the people
We in Xilin City will never tolerate the behavior and capital of wealth, no matter how powerful their background is, no matter how glorious their banner sounds."
After Liu Haotian finished speaking, the nearby dealers and some small traders who followed him also started to persuade loudly.
At this time, the old man who wanted to kneel down to Liu Haotian but was helped up by Liu Haotian suddenly said loudly: "I said old man, this person is indeed Mayor Liu of our Xilin City. I don't know what he said just now."
Listen clearly, come down. Mayor Liu will make the decision for us. He has put forward three proposals, each of which is for the common people of Xilin City and for us small traders at the bottom! Mayor Liu
He is indeed a mayor who takes charge of the country for the sake of our people! Come down here and don’t embarrass yourself there!”
After the old man finished speaking, the 70-year-old man upstairs suddenly hesitated.
He said with a trembling voice: "Are you sure it's true? Will the mayor really make the decision for us ordinary people?"
The old man downstairs said: "Don't worry, there won't be any lies. If you weren't making trouble here, the mayor's office meeting just held by Mayor Liu would have already made a decision. Come down as soon as possible. The specific matters."
I’ll have a nice chat with you later.”
Hearing this, the old man upstairs breathed a long sigh of relief, but at this moment, he said with a hint of fear in his voice: "I can't get down, my legs are weak, I'm afraid of heights!"
Downstairs, there was a sudden roar of wind.
At this moment, on the roof of the building, several property management personnel from the community quickly walked over and helped the old man down.
Liu Haotian glanced at the deputy mayors following him and said in a deep voice: "Vice mayors, have you seen how far our people have been pushed? I can tell you clearly that now
It is not just a problem for small traders. Now, many large supermarkets are already having difficulty operating. The wages of many supermarket workers are being reduced. Their survival is facing a crisis. They are all facing the problem of re-employment.
Comrades, have you ever thought about the significance of these Internet application platforms, especially these community group buying platforms, for their existence?
Especially community group buying platforms. The meaning of their existence is actually not fundamentally different from online shopping platforms. However, since their emergence, they have been thinking about the few dishes in the people's vegetable baskets again and again, and they even do not hesitate to take super measures.
Dumping at low prices, trying to make people develop consumption habits, how abominable their behavior is!
If they use this low-price model forever to sell, I will not only not restrict them, but will also strongly support them, because by doing so, they are equivalent to providing benefits to the people of Xilin City.
But will they do this for long? They won't!
Because they are capital, and the essence of capital is to pursue profits. All their current actions are to cultivate consumers' consumption habits and then reap the rewards.
This is something I, as the mayor of Xilin City, will never tolerate!
Comrades, there are still a few people who have not expressed their stance on the three points I just raised. Now you can tell me what your attitude is?
Huang Shaolong, you are the executive deputy mayor. Please tell me first!
Do you support these three suggestions of mine, or do you strongly oppose them?
I hope that before you answer, you will take a look at the suppliers around us who can no longer survive, and then take a look at the old man who was standing on the roof just now, preparing to jump off."?
After Liu Haotian finished speaking, his eyes flashed with complicated expressions.
Liu Haotian knew very well that once his three-point proposal was passed and submitted to the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee, it would inevitably cause an uproar and even offend a large number of powerful capital consortiums like Donglin Group. Each of these capital consortiums would
Have a strong background! Even the heads of some financial groups have been part of the comprador class of American and European capital since their parents' or even grandfather's generation. Carrying out the comprador to the end is the magic weapon for them to make a fortune and harvest the masses of the people.
To gain wealth is their usual method.
What they are best at is actually weaving personal connections, especially maintaining good relationships with officials at all levels and forming a community of interests. They have also created the Donglin Chamber of Commerce and various top business organizations.
, the purpose is to unite with the outside world and form an alliance of top forces in the business world!
Once you offend people like them, your career in the future will be thorny every step of the way.
Can you back down?
Liu Haotian asked himself repeatedly deep in his heart.
You can't back down! You absolutely can't back down! Once you, the mayor of Xilin City, compromise, then who will protect the interests of the people of Xilin City?
Are you counting on Du Mingzhe?
Impossible! He is not the kind of official who can abandon his worldly interests for the benefit of the common people!
Especially when Liu Haotian's eyes saw the 70-year-old vegetable seller with a hunched face and a weathered face who was helped out by the property staff, Liu Haotian felt that the burden on his shoulders was extremely heavy.
As the mayor of Xilin City, if I can't take charge of these people who are struggling for survival, what's the point of being the mayor?
Just do it and it’s done!
Liu Haotian made the firmest determination deep in his heart and stared at Huang Shaolong with a cold gaze.
At this moment, the scene was silent, and everyone was looking at Huang Shaolong.
At this moment, Huang Shaolong felt a lot of pressure.
Huang Shaolong knew that he had to make a choice now. After all, there were so many people watching the scene, and so many self-media people, especially the two major video websites, were conducting live video broadcasts. If he was in
Under such circumstances, if you risk the disapproval of the world and think that Liu Haotian has three opinions that win the hearts of the people, then you will definitely become the target of public criticism.
What's more, even if this proposal is passed at the city government office meeting, it still needs to be discussed by the Standing Committee. As long as you firmly oppose it at the Standing Committee, it will be fine.
This is a strategic compromise!
Thinking of this, Huang Shaolong deliberately pretended to be very angry: "Mayor Liu, you heard clearly, I, Huang Shaolong, am the executive deputy mayor of Xilin City. The people of Xilin City are always in my heart. Who dares to harm the people of Xilin City?"
The interests of the people of Xilin City are suitable for me, Huang Shaolong, to oppose! I will never compromise!
Although your three-point proposal sounds a bit radical, I have to admit that your three-point proposal is indeed based on thinking from the people's standpoint, and I firmly support it!"
Seeing this situation, the other deputy mayors who stood in Du Mingzhe's camp seemed to understand something. They also stood up one after another, expressed their concern for the interests of the people with righteous words, and firmly stood by Liu Haotian.
position.
Liu Haotian's three proposals were finally passed at the mayor's office meeting.
Liu Haotian looked directly at Cao Kunpeng and said: "Director Cao, please summarize the three suggestions I just made, form a document and submit it to the Municipal Standing Committee for formal discussion."
Cao Kunpeng quickly expressed his understanding and started working immediately.
Liu Haotian then smiled and looked at the old vegetable seller who had just walked out and said: "Old man, don't worry, our city government will never let the interests of the people like you be taken advantage of by those community group buying platforms.
Yes! I, Liu Haotian, will definitely give everyone a normal living space!"
"Thank you, thank you." The old man could clearly hear the statements of the deputy mayors just now, and there were faint tears in his eyes.
After all the matters at the scene were settled, Liu Haotian waved goodbye to everyone. Under the reluctant and respectful eyes of the people at the scene, Liu Haotian's car gradually walked away.
Many people looked at Liu Haotian's car and refused to leave for a long time.
Because everyone knows that at this moment, this young mayor is their last hope. Whether their living space can be returned depends on the mayor opening up territory for them.
Not long after Liu Haotian got into the car, his cell phone rang.
Liu Haotian glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Du Mingzhe, and quickly answered the call.
Du Mingzhe's angry voice came from the phone: "Liu Haotian, are you kidding? You actually want to submit the three impossible-to-realize opinions you said at the scene to the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee.
A vote? Are you right in your mind? How can a proposal like yours be passed at the level of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee?"
