After the video conference in Dongping City ended, Yang Guocheng looked at Municipal Party Committee Secretary Zhou Xiaoyong and said: "Secretary Zhou, I think that before we ask Vice Governor Wei to come forward, we can try to have you personally come forward to talk to Liu Haotian. If Liu Haotian can
To give you face, this is the best, because our demands are not high. We just ask him to withdraw all the manuscripts. As for whether he apologizes, at our level, we don’t ask for that much.
Even if we don’t succeed, it’s not too late to ask Vice Governor Wei to come forward.”
Zhou Xiaoyong didn't hesitate at all. He took out his mobile phone and dialed the number provided by Yang Guocheng. The call was quickly connected.
Zhou Xiaoyong directly introduced himself: "Hello, Director Liu, I am Zhou Xiaoyong, Secretary of the Dongping Municipal Party Committee."
Liu Haotian said calmly: "Hello, Secretary Zhou."
Liu Haotian didn't say a word after that, and his attitude seemed very calm.
Zhou Xiaoyong said in a low tone: "Comrade Liu Haotian, I believe you should also understand why I made this call to you. To be honest, Comrade Liu Haotian, your two manuscripts have hurt our Dongping City very much. Our Dongping City Committee has recently
Because you have been extremely busy with the manuscripts these two days, and the manuscripts these two days have also had an extremely strong negative effect on the reputation of our Dongping City, I have two purposes for calling you. First, I want to bring
We, Dongping City, want to apologize to you because our shortcomings in the work of Dongping City have caused you a lot of trouble, for which I am deeply sorry."
Liu Haotian shook his head gently: "Secretary Zhou, there is no need to apologize. We are all just trying to do our jobs well. There is no need for you to apologize."
Zhou Xiaoyong continued: "Comrade Liu Haotian is very generous, which makes me very happy. The second purpose of calling you is to hope that you can take down those two manuscripts. After all, our internal conflicts can be adjusted internally."
To solve it, there is no need to make the city full of trouble. If this matter goes wrong, it will also affect the image of the entire Jixiang Province, so the gain will outweigh the loss!"
Listening to Zhou Xiaoyong's low-key tone, Liu Haotian smiled bitterly: "Secretary Zhou, actually you don't have to do this at all, because you and I actually know very well that the primary target of my attack is not your Dongping City, but
In response to the public opinions on the Internet that are constantly stigmatizing and attacking me under the control of capital.
These people made the incident of me, Liu Haotian, being criticized by the whole province circulated on the Internet for a whole week, causing my personal reputation, Liu Haotian, to be greatly smeared. Is this intolerable?
Secretary Zhou, I, Liu Haotian, am not a stingy person, but I am also far from generous in some aspects. Anyone who hurts me will be repaid a hundredfold!
Someone asked me to stay on the hot search for a week, and I will let this manuscript stay online for two weeks!
I will never take down this manuscript within two weeks!
Secretary Zhou, I, Liu Haotian, deal with the situation rather than the person. Regarding Secretary Zhou, I have no prejudice against you or the entire Dongping Municipal Committee. My two manuscripts are only for the Matsui Group’s visit to your Dongping City this time.
I have raised strong doubts about the investment project. My purpose and original intention are also for the benefit of the entire Dongping City. I don’t want Dongping City to become a tragedy caused by the unscrupulous harvest of foreign capital!
Secretary Zhou, I’m very sorry!”
After saying that, Liu Haotian hung up the phone directly.
Zhou Xiaoyong listened to the beeping busy tone from the phone. His face was very ugly. Although he was extremely angry inside, he still gently put down the phone with a faint smile on his face and turned on the phone.
He joked: "Comrade Liu Haotian is really a copper pea that can't be steamed or boiled but can't be broken! It seems that my face is not worth a few dollars!"
Zhou Xiaoyong said it lightly, but people who are familiar with him know that when Zhou Xiaoyong laughs at himself with a smile on his face, it means that his dissatisfaction with this person has reached its peak, which means that he has deeply
If you remember this person, in the future, he will not hesitate to act cruelly whenever there is an opportunity.
In the past, a division-level cadre once contradicted Zhou Xiaoyong in front of these leaders. Zhou Xiaoyong also made a joke with a smile like today. At that time, the division-level cadre thought that this incident was over because of a joke.
It was over, but less than two months later, during another city-wide inspection, Zhou Xiaoyong led a few people to make a surprise inspection of the division-level cadre's office. Some problems were discovered and he was exempted on the spot.
He removed all the positions of that division-level cadre and asked the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection to intervene. Although in the end the division-level cadre did not find any economic problems or style problems, he still lost his job!
Although he reported this issue several times afterwards, Zhou Xiaoyong directly suppressed his issue. Later, due to livelihood constraints, the director had to get up early and go home late every day to set up a stall and sell vegetables. But even so, his
Life is still difficult because the urban management team will take special care of him.
Finally, the director could no longer survive in Dongping City and had to move his family out of Dongping City.
Anyone who is familiar with Zhou Xiaoyong knows that Zhou Xiaoyong has a sunny side, but he also has an unsunny side. He possesses both sides of human nature at the same time.
Seeing Zhou Xiaoyong's performance, Yang Guocheng said with shame on his face: "Secretary Zhou, I'm sorry, you have been wronged by my proposal."
Zhou Xiaoyong waved his hand: "There is nothing wrong with your proposal, but we didn't expect that Liu Haotian has such a stubborn character. It seems that we can only turn to Vice Governor Wei Chunyu, who is in charge of the Department of Natural Resources."
Wei Punyu was very considerate to Dongping City, and he usually had a good relationship with Zhou Xiaoyong, so after receiving the request from Dongping City, Wei Punyu directly asked the staff to call Liu Qingyu. In Wei Punyu's office,
Wei Punyu pulled Liu Haotian to sit down at the coffee table very politely, poured Liu Haotian a cup of tea himself, and then said with a smile: "Comrade Liu Haotian, I am talking to you this time mainly because I have been entrusted by the leadership of the Dongping Municipal Party Committee.
, and the leaders of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee attach great importance to this incident. Therefore, I hope you can withdraw the two manuscripts posted online. You can calm the overwhelming public opinion on the Internet and serve our Dongping City and the entire Jixiang City.
Make your own contribution to the provincial safe network construction.
I know that you were aggrieved in the previous public opinion crisis, and I understand this very well, but we cannot vent our emotions casually just because we are aggrieved. We should still have some perspective on the overall situation."
Liu Haotian took a deep breath: "Governor Wei, I understand what you mean very much, and I very much agree with your position, but I also want to ask you, have you read my manuscript?
I have read it, can you point out which sentence or point of view in my manuscript is wrong?
In my article, I discussed the matter and expressed my personal views, which were well-founded. I welcome people from any level or department to refute. If the views of my article are refuted, I will personally stand up and apologize.
I apologize and am willing to bear the legal responsibility caused by this."
Wei Chunyu shook his head gently: "Comrade Liu Haotian, this is not a question of whether the law is legal or not. This incident is related to the reputation of our entire Jixiang Province. Even more seriously, if this matter gets serious, it will affect
For the sake of our entire Cat Siang Province’s investment promotion work, for the sake of the overall interests of our Cat Siang Province, you must withdraw these two manuscripts. This is the instruction of the Provincial Party Committee!”
Liu Haotian smiled slightly: "Governor Wei, since you said this is the instruction of the Provincial Party Committee, there is no problem. As long as the Provincial Party Committee has a specific instruction document, or you show me a paper document, ask me to withdraw this time immediately.
manuscript, and give me clear reasons for withdrawing it, I am willing to choose to withdraw it.
However, if you just tell me out of thin air that this is an instruction from the Provincial Party Committee, then I'm sorry, but I will not accept such an instruction.
Governor Wei, it’s not that I don’t give you face, it’s not that I don’t give face to the Provincial Party Committee, so I just want to ask you and the Provincial Party Committee, when there was overwhelming publicity on the Internet that I, Liu Haotian, was criticized by the provincial government, did you stand up for me?
Have you said anything? Has the Provincial Party Committee stood up and said a word for me? Has the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee taken any effective measures to avoid the expansion of the impact of this incident?
No! Not at all!
So let me ask you, since none of you have said anything to me, Liu Haotian, and you all think that I, Liu Haotian, deserved to be criticized by the whole province, then in this case, I, Liu Haotian, defended my own innocence. Am I wrong?
Shouldn't I let the truth of the matter be made known to the world? Do I have to carry a punishment that was criticized by the entire province?
Maybe some people will choose to tolerate it when they are treated like me, but it is very regrettable that I, Liu Haotian, am not that kind of person. If anyone wants to throw dirty water on me, I will not throw it back, but I will cut off the person who throws dirty water.
No matter who he is, no matter how high his level is, I will fight back without hesitation! This is my Liu Haotian's style and principles of doing things!"
Wei Chunyu didn't expect that Liu Haotian would be so stubborn. He even interviewed him in person. He acted so sincerely that he even poured a cup of tea for Liu Haotian himself. Under normal circumstances, a subordinate should have been moved a long time ago, at least.
He should also make some gestures, but Liu Haotian refused to do anything, which made Wei Punyu quite angry.
The first such close conversation between the two ended in a breakdown.
Liu Haotian saw Wei Punyu's serious face and smiled bitterly: "Governor Wei, if you have nothing else to do here, I will go back first. There are still many things at the Department of Natural Resources, so I won't bother you.
It’s your job.”
After Liu Haotian said a very strange logic, he stood up and left.
He knew very well that after today's discussion, the relationship between him and Wei Chunyu was completely at loggerheads! There was no room for relaxation at all.
