At noon the next day, Secretary Chen and I met at the teahouse of a five-star hotel.
It was obvious that he had just finished eating here, because his breath smelled of alcohol.
We didn't sit in a private room because there were not many people in the hall. We sat next to the large and transparent floor, and there were no other people around.
It's good to talk about things in a place like this. There will definitely be no problem keeping confidentiality, and the environment is very good, because I can feel the fresh air here and the soft music floating in the air.[
He also likes to drink green tea.
I started to speak, "Secretary Chen, I'm sorry for keeping you from rest this weekend, but the matter is too important, and I think I should report it to you immediately."
He smiled and shook his head and said: "It's okay, isn't it all for the revolutionary work? You don't have any rest either? Tell me, what's the matter?"
So I briefly told him about my visit to the winery yesterday for investigation. Of course, my focus was on what Director Jin said to me later.
Finally I asked: "Secretary Chen, do you know these things?"
But what I didn't expect was that he actually nodded, "I know."
I immediately looked at him in astonishment, "You know?"
He nodded, "Yes, I know. I only found out about this when I got here. After all, as a state-owned enterprise that is going to close down and be sold off, I, the municipal Party committee secretary, should know about it, right? But I had just arrived here, and my hand
There were too many things going on, and I didn’t have time to understand the details carefully. Besides, such a small factory didn’t allow me to focus on it right away. But I stopped them from thinking about selling it off right away. Maybe it was because
Because of this, Lao Wen has more objections to me, right? I heard that he complained about this later, saying that his dignified mayor couldn't even decide such a small matter. But I pretended not to know anything, because I thought that we were going to
Jiang City's reform cannot be carried out rashly. It must be carried out in batches after an overall plan is in place. Haha! Things in this world sometimes happen by chance. Maybe our reform in Shangjiang City is already imperative.
God doesn't want us to fail. Yesterday you actually mentioned this matter in your mind, so I immediately had a new idea and asked you to learn about the situation of this winery in advance. Mayor Feng, now I really
I feel that this matter is a breakthrough. In this way, you can put this matter aside for the time being. I will ask the comrades of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection to investigate in advance and clarify other issues in it before talking about it. This can also achieve the effect of knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger.
Let those who have selfish motives and try to undermine the reform behave themselves."
I nodded, "That's it. Mayor Chen, I think Director Jin is very good. Can you use this person when you see it? I personally feel that if our Shangjiang Distillery really wants to reform,
This person is a good candidate to be the factory director."
He shook his head and said: "I still say what I said, first find out what's going on inside and then talk about it. If there is no problem with this person, then talk about it. It's safer this way."
Only then did I realize that as secretary of the municipal party committee, he indeed sees farther and deeper than me when considering problems.
The next day I went to have lunch in a newly opened restaurant. I didn't have any other intention, I just wanted to see if the taste here could be maintained.
The business at this place is actually so good at noon.
Ruan Zhenzhen saw me with a smile on his face, "I should call you Mayor Feng now, right? I never thought you could become such a big official at such a young age."
I couldn't laugh or cry, "Isn't my current level the same as before? Why weren't you surprised before?"
She smiled and said: "I always think that the mayor's official position is older. You used to be the director, and I always think of my class teacher when I was in school, hehe! Director, how old is your official position?"
I couldn't help but laugh.
She then asked me: "Brother Feng, can I have dinner with you?"
I hurriedly said: "No need. You can go and do your work."[
She said: "I'm not busy? Now the restaurant is on the right track. The people below are doing their own thing. My job is to discover problems in time and deal with them as soon as possible. It's okay."
I really didn't want to eat face to face with her. On the one hand, I didn't want others to see such a scene and arouse suspicion. On the other hand, I still didn't trust myself. I hurriedly said to her jokingly: "Forget it, you are too beautiful.
Now, with you opposite me, I’m worried that I won’t be able to eat. The beauty is so delicious, what else should I eat?”
She looked at me and immediately couldn't help but chuckle, "I never thought you could joke. Well, since you don't want me to accompany you to dinner, I'll go do it by myself. But someone will come soon, you
You will definitely be willing to let him accompany you."
I looked at her in shock, "Who is it?"
She smiled sweetly at me, "My sister. She called me this morning and said she wanted to bring her children here for dinner."
I looked at her and found a playful look on her beautiful face. I smiled bitterly and asked her, "Zhenzhen, what do you mean by that?"
She smiled and said: "It's not interesting. Weren't you and her colleagues before? So I think you won't object to eating with her, right? Also, if you agree, I will arrange your dishes together. Why?
Sample?"
Although I clearly knew that there was another meaning in her words, I couldn't say anything more, otherwise it would be suspected of being cover-up. I said: "That's okay. But when will she arrive? I'm
Very hungry."
And at this time, I saw Ruan Jie coming in with a child. Ruan Zhenzhen also saw it, and she smiled and said to me: "It seems that you two really have a connection. Hehe!"
Immediately, she ran towards Ruan Jie.
Ruan Jie came alone because she gave the child to her sister.
Seeing her walking towards me, I immediately smiled and asked her to sit down. I don't know why, but now I find that she and I seem to have a strange feeling. Maybe it's because we are no longer colleagues?
"How is it? How does it feel to be the mayor?" She asked me first.
I smiled and replied: "Not yet. We haven't gone through the National People's Congress election yet, so my job now is to be familiar with the situation. But local things are complicated enough, and I don't understand them very well."
She said: "I am definitely not as comfortable as you in the provincial recruitment office. After all, you were the top leader before. But now you are different, because you are the leader of a government department and can be assigned as a secretary, so you have more power. No.
Is it okay to understand? Anyway, you are so smart and you adapted quickly. I think you have to pretend to understand now even if you don’t understand. This is a matter of your prestige."
I smiled and said, "Yeah, now I'm just pretending to be like a pig with a green onion stuck in its nose. But I can't keep pretending like this forever. Only someone with real substance in his belly can really convince you." At this point, I
Suddenly he remembered the joke told by Secretary Liu, and then told the joke to Ruan Jie, and then said: "It is said that this is a real thing in our place. Please update soon. Do you think, if the organization alone
It gives yourself a kind of power, but if you don't have that level, you will be making a joke. Although this joke is a bit unbelievable, I think this is still the case among individual cadres in counties and cities, and
For us, the requirements for us from above will definitely be much higher. If we don’t strengthen our studies, we may still make jokes. There is no distinction between high and low-level jokes. Some jokes will affect our future, especially
For those matters that involve policy issues.”
I said so much just to remind her. Of course she understood, and then said with a smile: "I didn't expect that there are really such stupid people down there. It's just unimaginable. But what you said is right, and I know it."
You are here to warn me. I will study harder in the future. Now that I am living alone, I don’t have so many worries, so I can calm down and read books and stuff."
I nodded, "Yes. You and I are still relatively young now, and this is our capital. Ruan Jie, in fact, what I am most worried about is your personal life. Don't be angry. After all, our relationship is different, so I think
I need to remind you. You are a woman, and the issue of reputation is more important than that of a man, and others are more concerned about it. So I hope you will be particularly cautious in this regard in the future. What I say is really from the bottom of my heart. You must not
You think I'm mocking you or looking down on you or something."
Her face suddenly turned red and she whispered to me: "Your reminder is right. Now I feel ashamed and blush when I think of those things in the past. I always think in my heart: Why was I so shameless before?"
What? Feng Xiao, I’ve thought about it. As a woman, you always have to have your own family. A divorced woman like me is not ugly at all. If I stay single like this, I will definitely be attracted by those men.
I have wild fantasies, so I think I should just find a man to get married. Anyway, anyway..." She looked at me and said, "Anyway, I know that you can't marry me.
Because you are so good, it is impossible to forgive me for the things I did in the past."
Her words had an obvious probing meaning, and of course I knew it in my heart. In fact, what she said was quite right, because I couldn't accept her past. After all, Leng Hua and Secretary Luo were people I knew. Although Secretary Luo is dead now,
Leng Hua is still here, if I really get married to Ruan Jie... Thinking of this, I feel sick and tired. But I also know that this is actually a question of whether it is worth it or not. If I
If you really like her and have deep feelings for her, then nothing else will matter anymore.
I said: "Ruan Jie, you and I have long passed the age of impulsive marriage, right? Besides, you know my situation very well. My father just passed away. Now, for me, there is nothing better than me."
Mother and children are more important. I no longer have extravagant expectations for my marriage. I just want to live alone like this for the rest of my life. Ruan Jie, you are different from me. You are a woman and you need to find someone you like.
, or the other person really likes your man and starts a family of his own. This is the most important thing. To be honest, you should learn from the lessons of your last marriage. The relationship between a man and a woman needs to be based on emotion. Otherwise, it will be the same.
It won’t last long. Ruan Jie, am I right?”
What I said was actually telling her in disguise: There is no affection between us, or simply I don’t have that kind of affection for you, so marriage is not suitable for us.[
She looked gloomy and said softly: "I know."
I suddenly felt that the atmosphere between us was very dull, and I didn’t want to talk about such things anymore, so I immediately asked: "How is the provincial recruitment situation now? Are you still convinced by Shanglongxing?"
She glanced at me and said quietly: "You just care about her."
I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart: Women are like this, they always like to be jealous for no reason. I said: "Ruan Jie, I only ask you this question out of concern for my previous work unit. You should know that when I arrived in the province
After the recruitment, I still did a lot of work, especially the ongoing admissions and admissions center project, which was handled by me single-handedly. I asked myself what went wrong in my previous unit? You
, why are you always so petty?"
She whispered: "I treat you... but you think I am small-minded. Oh! I am so pathetic. Forget it, I won't think about these things anymore, it is very unrealistic, whatever, from now on I will never
I won’t think about the possibility between us anymore. Shanglongxing... She is okay. Director Ke was a little awkward at first, but I guess he later felt that it was pointless to be awkward with a woman.
, there is nothing more now. Shang Longxing has one thing like you, that is, she is very tolerant to her subordinates. If she has any shortcomings, it is that she is a little indecisive when dealing with things. Haha! She is a woman.
, most of them are like this.”
Her words suddenly reminded me of what happened to Ke Xiangnan. In fact, I felt very sorry for him. I have to use fate to explain things like Ke Xiangnan. To be honest, this person has some abilities and his own
He has a relatively unique mind, is fairly decent, and is serious about his work, but his future is just stuck there. Is there any other reason for this besides using fate to explain it? You know, a person
The background is also an integral part of destiny.
In contrast, Shanglongxing's luck was much better. By chance, we talked about the issue of scholar-type officials, and then I happened to have dinner with Governor Huang and Lin Yu, and Governor Huang happened to talk about this issue again.
, and then came the matter of adjusting the deputy position of the Provincial Recruitment Office, and then things continued to develop in that direction. During the development of the whole thing, Shanglongxing almost reached its due position step by step. What is this if not fate?
As for the indecisiveness of Shang Lian Xing mentioned by Ruan Jie, this is actually not important. What is important is that now she has taken the top position, and she is already at the deputy department level.
Levels are something you can see and touch. From the department level to the next level, this is a step. Many people work hard all their lives but never get up. You know, the deputy county magistrate in the county is also the deputy director level.
Level. And it becomes more difficult for a person to go from department level to deputy director. Of course, if you want to continue to move up, it will definitely be even more difficult. This is the case in any country's bureaucracy.
The fewer the positions, the more difficult it becomes for a person to move up. This is inevitable.
At this point, the distribution of wealth is the same, in a pyramidal state.
I am different. Judging from my journey along the way, I should be one of the luckier people in the world. I went from being an ordinary doctor to the director of the department, and then concurrently served as the director of the Foreign Affairs Office of the Medical University.
, and later directly became the director of the Provincial Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, leaping from a department-level cadre in a university to the deputy department level. All this was because there was a key person behind me working for me.
That is Lin Yu.
Fortune tellers often tell people: There is a noble person in your life. The so-called noble person refers to the most auspicious noble person in your life. When a person is in trouble, he can help you turn disaster into good luck and relieve disasters.
.When you are only one step away from success, but it is harder than reaching the sky, his appearance will make you reach the sky in one step. In this sense, Lin Yu is the noble man in my destiny.
Nowadays, I am becoming more and more superstitious, especially after my father passed away. My father’s death made me more truly aware of our insignificance and fragility as human beings. It also made me feel even more that our lives are too normal and we often suffer.
It makes people feel frightened, and at the same time, it also makes people feel that there seems to be a double-shaped power that controls our destiny, including our lives.
I went home directly after having dinner with Ruan Jie at noon. This time my meeting with Ruan Jie was different from the past. She didn't hint anything to me, and I no longer had such thoughts about her. Now,
I don't even have any interest in Zhong Feng anymore. I feel like I no longer have the same urgent need for that aspect of things as before.
I suddenly felt an uneasy feeling about this, because I once heard a saying: The average number of sexual intercourses a man has in his lifetime is from 5,000 to 7,200 times. It seems like a lot of times, but in fact, when broken down,
It is worth recalling. If it is used once a day, it can be used for twenty years. If it is used three to five times a day, how many years can it be used? This thing is like the money in our pockets. Every penny used is one penny less, but the money is different.
Yes, because you can still find a way to get the money back.
In fact, I also know some other little-known secrets about men. The average speed of a man’s sexual intercourse can reach 45 kilometers per hour, which is faster than the average speed of a bus; the amount of sperm per sexual intercourse: one to two teaspoons; the average speed of a man’s life
The number of sexual intercourse is 2,000 times, and the average amount of sexual intercourse in a lifetime can reach fifty-three liters; the season when men have the strongest sexual intercourse is the morning in autumn...
Fortunately, I don't have the habit of having sex. From this calculation, I should still have a lot of remaining times that I can use.
In fact, the number of ovulations in women is also fixed. In theory, it is about 4 to 400. However, the number of ovulations in women is directly proportional to the primordial follicle reserve. Women with more follicle reserves and less consumption will have more months and years of ovulation.
. In women, more than ten follicles develop simultaneously during each menstrual cycle, but only one dominant follicle can grow to ovulate, and the rest become atretic follicles. In addition, the number of follicles in women has been determined when they are born, and the number of follicles in infancy and childhood is
It is in a dormant state. It takes about forty years for a woman to go from puberty to menopause. During this process, follicles continue to ovulate, consume, and become atretic during development. At menopause, follicles are exhausted, ovulation stops, ovarian function declines, and fertility declines.
termination.
All this is destined by God. From this, I think of the huge yellow horn tree outside my childhood home. Every year in April or May, it will shed its golden leaves, and they will fly in the wind.
All the buds fell to the ground, and the golden layer looked really beautiful. Then within a few days, buds would grow, and after a few days, the outer layer of buds would be orange-red.
The things will quickly fall to the ground, and then you will soon see the refreshing green color of the tree. In just half a month, the tree seems to have experienced a process from death to rebirth.
, I can’t help but sigh at the magic of life.
Now that I think about it, it is also a kind of destiny. Because the tree in my memory is like this every year, and there has never been a delay in the situation in a certain year...
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but smile bitterly: Why did I suddenly think of such messy things?
In the next nearly month, I conducted in-depth research on the city's major factories and mines. It can be said that I have mastered a lot of first-hand information, and I also have some ideas of my own.
However, the matter at Shangjiang Winery caused me trouble.
One day when I was eating in the canteen, Mayor Wen said to me: "Mayor Feng, please come to my office after dinner."
He had a smile on his face when he said this to me, so I didn't pay attention to it, so I went to his office easily after eating. At that time, I was thinking: Maybe he has something.
Leave all work matters to me.
But when I arrived at his office, I found something was wrong with his face: not only was there no smile on his face, but he also looked ugly.
I couldn't figure out where exactly I had offended him, so I thought on a whim: Maybe he encountered something unhappy, or maybe he needed me to come forward to solve it for him. So I asked him: "
Mayor Wen, tell me, what happened?"
But what I didn't expect was that he immediately came to me and asked me coldly: "I heard that you went to the winery?"
I was a little confused, so I immediately replied: "Yes. I went there to do some research."
His expression became even more ugly, "Why don't you report it to me?"
Now I was even more confused, "Mayor Wen, I'm just going to do research. Wasn't it your idea to ask me to go to various factories and mines to do research? I'm just doing what you want."
His voice was still cold, "Are you going to do research? Someone told me that you were going there to issue instructions! The municipal party committee and the city government are very supportive of the reform of the winery. Let it be revitalized. The key issue is the wine
The factory team has no confidence...Wait a minute, did you say these things?"
My heart suddenly sank, because I suddenly remembered the words of Director Jin and Secretary Chen. At this moment, I suddenly realized that I had made a mistake that I shouldn't have made: no matter what, after reporting to Secretary Chen, I should also go to the office in front of me.
This person reported on his work, not only about the winery, but also about his other work in recent times. This is at least an attitude problem on my part. Now it seems that he must be interested in me going to the winery.
I was dissatisfied with the matter because Secretary Chen also told me that Mayor Wen was dissatisfied with him on this matter. So I thought, if I had reported it to Mayor Wen in time, he might not have done it today.
Treat me with this attitude.
I said: "Mayor Wen, maybe you have misunderstood. First, I never issued any instructions. Now I am still very clear about my identity. Although the organization has given me the appointment of a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, I still
I didn’t have the status of deputy governor. At that time, I saw that the situation in that factory was particularly bad, and what the director said was completely discouraging, so I just said a few words to him based on the situation. Secondly
, I did say that Shangjiang Winery needs to be reformed, but I think there is nothing wrong with what I said. Now we as a whole in Shangjiang City are facing the problem of reform, and the reform of the winery should also be inevitable.
OK. Besides, there are many ways to reform, such as injecting funds to bring it back to life, selling it off after evaluation, etc., are all one of the ways of reform, but I personally think it is better to adopt the previous method. Maybe this has something to do with the market
The government's previous decisions were contradictory, but what I expressed was just my personal opinion. Third, I also said at the end: the issue of Shangjiang Distillery must be discussed by the municipal party committee and the municipal government before being announced. Text
Mayor, am I wrong to say this?"
I pay great attention to the way I speak. First of all, I made it clear that I am a member of the Standing Committee, so I am qualified even if I issue instructions. Secondly, the word "could it be" was not used in the last sentence I asked him, because
Adding those two words makes it a bit aggressive. I have to keep myself low-key and respectful.
His face looked a little better, but he still asked me: "There are two questions I want to ask you. First, do you know that the city government has made a decision to sell off Shangjiang Winery? Second, do you know that the city government has made a decision to sell off Shangjiang Winery?
, why did you choose which place to conduct research first?”
His two questions went straight to the most important point, and it was immediately difficult for me to answer. But I thought about it quickly and answered immediately: "Mayor Wen, I didn't know the city before I went there.
The decision that the government had made. Because I just went to do research, and no one told me that the city government had made such a decision. Of course, I did have shortcomings in this matter. First of all, I did not have any knowledge about alcohol.
I wanted to understand the basic situation of the factory in advance. Secondly, I was too anxious and thought that I was just going to do research, so there was no such thing in my mind. As for why I chose to research that place in the first place.
, this stems from a recent wine party. I drank the liquor produced by Jiangshang Winery at the wine table. I thought the quality was very good, so I asked about this winery. When I heard about this winery
After facing the situation of bankruptcy, I immediately felt that this winery might have something that I needed to investigate, so I went there directly the next day. Mayor Wen, this is the situation."
There was no expression on his face, but then he asked me again: "Who did you drink that kind of wine when you were having dinner?"
I was shocked because I didn't expect him to ask me such a question. I replied: "Mayor Wen, this happened eight hours ago. I just got here. The people in the team, as well as the county party committee,
Leaders of the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference are inviting me to dinner, is this normal?"
In fact, my voice was telling him: This is my private matter. You don’t seem to have the right to control me, right? To be honest, I really didn’t expect him to ask me that question, which made me immediately feel that his
There is a problem with the level.
He must have understood my voice-over, and his face suddenly became ugly, "Comrade Feng Xiao, I heard that you are always steady in doing things. Why did you become so reckless after you came to our place? Winery
The matter has been studied by the government executive meeting, but you went there alone and made another voice. This is not good, right? Even if you are now a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, you can only be regarded as one of the eleven members of the Standing Committee.
One of them, this does not represent the opinion of the organization, right? It is a good thing that young people are active in doing things, but it is not okay for you to be so reckless. I hope you will learn a lesson in the future and understand the most basic situation first.
Go give instructions again. Okay?"
His words made it impossible for me to defend myself, and I couldn't defend myself because I couldn't let him know that I had communicated with Secretary Chen, otherwise it would cause him to be even more disgusted with me. Who would allow myself to be his subordinate?
?Now I really feel something: this deputy is a doormat of ***!
Therefore, the only thing I can say at this moment is to admit my mistake to him, "Mayor Wen, your criticism is right. I will pay attention to it in the future. I'm sorry, I hope this incident does not cause you any trouble."
He immediately asked: "What do you mean by that? Why are you causing trouble for me? This is a matter for our Shangjiang Municipal Government and something we have studied collectively. Why are you causing trouble for me?"
I realized that I had said the wrong thing again, but I felt very angry inside. But I could only endure it, "I'm sorry, Mayor Wen, I take back what I just said. But I really didn't mean anything else. You know
Yes, I have never had any experience in local work, so please forgive me for this mistake."
His face looked better now, "Forget it, let's leave it like that. I see how some people want to make things look like. It's okay, you can go and do your own thing."
After I left his office, I felt very irritated and angry, but at the same time I felt that being a senior official was overwhelming...
But now I have a hunch: the conflict between myself and Mayor Wen will break out sooner or later.
Because, I have realized that the factors that constitute the contradiction between us already exist
The conflict between Secretary Chen and him seems to have become inevitable, but I can only stand on Secretary Chen’s side. Now I realize that I don’t seem to have a choice in this matter, because I am not allowed to do anything in public or private matters.
There are other options;
Reform in Shangjiang City is imperative, and any behavior that obstructs reform, or any behavior that is seen as obstructing reform, will pay a price. And I will definitely not obstruct it subjectively, and I don’t want to be regarded as such.
Because it is obstructing.
This is regarded as something that is too subtle, and even a little scary. Because even though I am not opposed to reform in my heart, and in the case of supporting reform, if it is because I am not on the right team, then it is very likely that I will be on the right side.
Disagreements on a certain project, or otherwise, may be seen as an obstruction to reform.
But this perceived initiative is in the hands of Secretary Chen, the top leader in Shangjiang City. There is no doubt about this. Now it seems that the matter of Minister Yang inviting me to dinner that night was not just as simple as eating.
It should be a display of strength by Secretary Chen in front of me. His purpose should be to make me more determined to join his camp. It can be seen that his two deputies, as well as Minister Yang, and the municipal party committee organization
The two deputy ministers of the ministry, these people already belong to Secretary Chen’s camp.
Perhaps after Secretary Chen arrived in Shangjiang City, this has been the main thing he has done so far. But I understand very well that as secretary of the municipal party committee, controlling the overall situation is what he needs and must do first and foremost.
Therefore, when I had to make that choice, the conflict between myself and Mayor Wen had become inevitable, and it was even more so from today's situation.
However, I feel that Mayor Wen should not be so simple and rude in his working methods. Perhaps he has realized that I can only make that choice, so he uses that method to warn me. Perhaps his purpose is just
One, that is to warn me not to stay too far away from him.
Maybe on the first day I arrived in Shangjiang City, when Secretary Chen came to greet me in person and in such a high-profile manner, he had already realized it.
Therefore, I realized that I would face more storms in the future, and Mayor Wen's attack on me this time may have just begun.
But I don't have to worry about my own election, because Mayor Wen doesn't dare, and he won't be stupid enough to go against the organization's intentions.
