But this time, Xue Laosan's concession undoubtedly revealed a political decline.
At least, in the eyes of outsiders, he, Xue Laosan, is no longer so magical and invincible.
In this way, the so-called prestige will naturally diminish, and it will no longer be possible to restrain the already restless hearts of the centrists.
Moreover, at this time, Cao Li had already revealed all his trump cards.
At the Standing Committee meeting, Mr. Cao's five votes were already spread out on the table. How could people like Bai Qiming and Xia Yaodong not understand the outcome at this moment, but there was no risk at all.
Because, as long as the two of them express their opinions, Cao Li will immediately get more than half of the votes, and the two of them can share the fruits of Secretary Cao's victory without taking any risks.
In this way, he, Mr. Cao, would be able to achieve a great and vigorous victory without having to use his veto power, which meant he could kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred to himself.
However, as soon as Cao Li's obviously suggestive words fell, all the veterans in the room figured out the key.
Qiu Yuejin even scraped off a piece of sawdust with his fingernails in excitement. Huang Siwen smoked heavily, like a long-time smoker.
Xie Minggao, Qi Xi and others blushed even more, and deep self-blame and guilt filled their hearts, because if they had not made their own decisions now, Xue Xiang would never have had to compromise like this.
And if Xue Xiang doesn't compromise, who would dare to change sides at this time with the victory that he, Mayor Xue, has accumulated?
Seeing that the atmosphere in the venue was about to freeze, there was a crash, and Bai Qiming put down his pen and said: "Dear Secretary Cao, comrades..."
Unexpectedly. When Bai Qiming finished speaking, another voice also sounded immediately after.
"Secretary Cao, I want to take a leave!"
This voice was warm and clear, not as rich and loud as Bai Qiming's, but it completely suppressed Bai Qiming's voice, penetrated it, and passed through everyone's eardrums first.
It was Xue Xiang who spoke!
As soon as he said this, Bai Qiming stopped talking, and everyone in the room looked at him in surprise.
Indeed, after all this time, Mayor Xue still has the thought to ask for leave. What an international joke.
Cao Limei jumped. He waved his hand and said: "We will talk about the leave later. We are now talking about the appointment of Comrade Jiang Fangping. First come, first served. There is an order. Let Comrade Bai Qiming speak first."
Faintly, Cao Li suddenly realized that there must be something wrong with Xue Xiang's request for leave.
At this critical juncture, no matter what secret tricks Xue Xiang hid, he had to suppress them until Bai Qiming's statement came out. Any tricks Xue Xiang had were just floating clouds.
Just as Bai Qiming was about to speak, Xue Laosan smiled again and said, "Secretary Cao, I'd better speak first. Maybe after I finish speaking, Minister Qiming won't want to speak anymore."
Just now, Xue Laosan bluntly asked for leave, and maybe there are still people who can't figure out the inner secrets.
However, at this moment, when Xue Xiang said this, everyone understood that Mayor Xue was about to reveal his final trump card, but what kind of trump card was actually linked to asking for leave?
"I said, first come, first served, let Comrade Qiming finish speaking. Is the matter of asking for leave worth mentioning to the Standing Committee?"
Cao Li's eyes widened and he said coldly.
This is the first time since the meeting that Cao Li's face has undergone drastic facial changes.
"Secretary Cao, let Mayor Xue speak first, I'm not in a hurry."
No one expected that Bai Qiming would jump out and become Lei Feng again.
Although Minister Bai had not finished what he said before, the "Dear Secretary Cao" he said had already let everyone know what Minister Bai would say next.
However, when the matter came to an end, Minister Bai actually backed down again. This alertness may not be worthy of praise, but his thick skin and ability to change the direction of the wind went straight after Secretary Sun Ming.
Of course, it's no wonder that Bai Qiming temporarily shrinks his head. He is not a fool. Xue Xiang's words have already been mentioned. If he still dares to rush forward regardless of life and death, he will not be able to survive today.
To take a step back, if someone else interrupts like this, he, Bai Qiming, won't bother to pay attention. But who is Xue Xiang? This guy's sword has already killed many people. Bai Qiming will not be stupid enough. Xue Xiang has already put a warning on his face.
When it was clear, he rushed to the front to kill the wronged soul.
But he said that Bai Qiming himself had expressed his position in this way. No matter how dissatisfied Cao Li was, he could only do nothing. He could not force Bai Qiming to speak, as that would be counterproductive.
At this point, he could only stare at Xue Laosan closely to see what big moves this guy could unleash, "Comrade Xue Xiang, if you have anything to say, just say it. I want to see what important thing it is.
I want you to ask for leave in public at the Standing Committee."
"Although it is my private matter, it is indeed important. It's like this. No, the day after tomorrow is National Day. This year, the highest level will hold a military parade ceremony at Chengtianmen. The Central Office invited some comrades in the party to board the Chengtian Gate.
Tianmen Gate Tower participated in the National Day viewing ceremony, and because of my contribution back then, I was also invited, so I wanted to ask Secretary Cao for a few days off to attend the National Day viewing ceremony."
clang!
clang!
clang!
The heads of countless people began to buzz, as if someone had put a copper plate to their ears and hit them hard with an iron rod. The noise was so loud that they almost fainted.
After Xue Xiang finished speaking, the venue looked like a battlefield where a super atomic bomb had been dropped. It was completely silent, almost so cold that there was no sign of life.
National Day viewing ceremony, Chengtian Gate Tower, Xue Xiang,
No matter how you look at it, these three unrelated keywords are connected in one place. It really tests the nerves and understanding of the officials.
Speaking of which, three days later will be the National Day of 1984 and the 35th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. It is indeed an extremely important day.
The reason why it is said to be extremely important is because this year's National Day, the central government issued a notice about holding a military parade ceremony on National Day as early as the beginning of the year.
In the early years, the military parade ceremony was not unusual. In the first ten years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was a must-have event every year, but it was not considered very grand.
However, the military parade in 1984 was of great significance!
Because, since the three years of natural disasters, ten years have passed, and then the reform started, until now, in the past twenty-four years, no military parade has been held.
In addition, in the war to conquer the South, our army achieved a great victory and the southern border was stable. This military parade has the meaning of declaring force and announcing to the outside world that our powerful people's army has the ability to maintain the unity of the motherland and complete the territory.
Furthermore, the chaos is over. At the time when the country is reforming and opening up to the world, the entire Republic has been revitalized. The grand National Day military parade can stand with a new attitude and benefit the world stage. At the same time, it also boosts the aspirations of the people and shows strong patriotism.
The spirit is vigorous, which provides spiritual power for socialist modernization!
Finally, and most importantly, the holding of the military parade also declared the political correctness of reform and provided the most powerful force support for insisting on reform.
Precisely because everyone at the top and bottom knows that this National Day military parade is of great political significance, the entire country is treating it as an unprecedented event.
As early as the beginning of the year, the central government issued a notice on the National Day military parade, requiring all agencies, departments, and administrative units across the country to cooperate and make every effort to escort and contribute to the 35th birthday of the motherland.
Therefore, everyone in the venue knew about this year’s National Day military parade early.
In addition, as politicians, they know the significance of this National Day military parade better than ordinary people.
It can be said that since the top leaders announced that this year's National Day will be held with a military parade, it has been destined that this National Day ceremony will be a political summit no less important than the Party Congress in the year of election change.
Since the level and standards of this National Day ceremony are so high, how can it have anything to do with Mayor Xue?
You must know that those who can climb the Chengtian Gate Tower on that occasion are countless figures in the entire country.
There are party and state leaders at or above the deputy national level, members of the Military Commission, heads of the four major military teams, heads of major military regions, the Central Committee in Beijing, alternate Central Committee members, members of the Standing Committee of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, members of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, and members of the Standing Committee of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference
.
In addition to those in office, there are also retired veterans, as well as national meritorious officials and heroes who have made indelible contributions to the Republic.
Why did he, Mayor Xue, dare to say that he wanted to go to that place to observe the ceremony?
Indeed, Mayor Xue has reached the deputy department level at a young age, and he comes from an excellent family background. He is said to be an outstanding child of a famous family in the capital.
In addition, Mayor Xue has made considerable political achievements in his long career as an official, especially in the economy, and has even received verbal praise from heavyweights many times.
But at the national level, what do these economic achievements count?
After all this, how can he, Mayor Xue, climb onto that highly anticipated city tower on National Day and become the center of attention for one billion people in the entire country?
It can be said that after everyone woke up from the super atomic bomb released by Xue Xiang, this analysis flashed in everyone's minds involuntarily.
Indeed, in their view, although Mayor Xue was extraordinary, there was still a huge gap between him and the almost mythical position that attracted so much attention.
For a moment, almost everyone thought that Mayor Xue had launched an unprecedented huge cannon.
Qiu Yuejin couldn't hold it back and laughed out loud. When he thought about it, Xue Laosan was simply driven crazy by Cao Li's political attack, and he even thought of using such nonsense and empty words to redeem himself.
situation.
I really thought that Mr. Qiu was also a rustic country bumpkin who had never seen the world and was watching the ceremony at Chengtian Gate Tower. It was really a shame that Xue Laosan dared to brag about it!
"What? Comrades, this expression surprises me. Are you reluctant to let me leave Dejiang, or do you think I am bragging about the New Year?"
It was Xue Laosan himself who broke the silence.
"Mayor Xue, um, you must not think that the atmosphere at the venue is not very good. You are joking and want to liven up the atmosphere?"
Meng Jun said anxiously.
ps: Book friends, in the book review area, I have read the posts posted by tieba in Jiangnan. I am also trying to find solutions, update them steadily, and spend more time conceiving and condensing the text;
Some time ago, I asked for monthly tickets and my friends gave me a lot of tickets. I promised to add more updates. I didn’t want to break my promise. There were a lot of code words and I was in poor condition, which caused quality problems. I would like to apologize to you!
From now on, Jiangnan will do its best and add more updates while ensuring quality. Of course, it will be updated as stably as possible. Two chapters will be updated every day, one chapter each at 8 a.m. and 6 p.m.!
Keep moving forward, thank you! (To be continued...)
