Chapter five hundred and eighty second Formosa delegation two
Looking at the two people with a smile, Mr. Tang shook his hand with a smile and said: "I don't think there is any need to make arrangements or anything. The main reason for coming back this time is to pay homage to the ancestors' graves. The other things are just There is no need to arrange it." Although Tang Jingnian has now retired on the island, he still holds the title of Honorary Chairman of the Kuomintang after all. His every move here is attracting attention. In order not to give the island's opposition party It would be better to use this excuse to attack and avoid one thing.
Hearing what Mr. Tang said, Xu Chaoyang didn't seem surprised. He glanced at Yu Fan, turned around and said with a smile: "Since Mr. Tang said so, we will cancel the other arrangements." Hehehe smiled, Tang The old gentleman cupped his hands and said: "I'm really sorry for wasting your kindness. Alas, this person always returns to his hometown, and it is inevitable that he will feel shy about his hometown. Tomorrow he will return to the place where he grew up as a child. I really have mixed feelings in my heart."
It can be seen that Mr. Tang was really feeling all kinds of things at this time. Mrs. Tang also reached out to comfort her husband. The deep feeling of love between husband and wife could not help but make the two of them smile knowingly and hehe. Xu Chaoyang stood up and said : "Then we won't disturb Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang's rest, but there will be a press conference later tomorrow. I hope Mr. Tang can attend then,"
Tang Jingnian stood up with a smile, nodded and said: "That's for sure. Many people are very concerned about me when I come back this time. I have to give them an explanation. But please rest assured. Although I am an old and confused person, but in the nation We still have a consistent position on the issue," he said, shaking hands with the two of them with a smile, and sent them to the door with their persuasion.
When entering the elevator, Yu Fan sighed, looked at Xu Chaoyang and smiled bitterly: "It seems that all our arrangements were in vain. We originally wanted to let Mr. Tang see the changes in his hometown over the years, but now it seems that There is no use for it." Looking at Yu Fan's smile, Xu Chaoyang said: "Haha, this has been expected for a long time. After all, **** has received too much attention from the outside world, and we have to stand still. Think about others from their perspective,"
After all, Xu Chaoyang works in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He understands Mr. Tang's thoughts very clearly. Yu Fan smiled and nodded when he heard this: "It seems that Mr. Tang is very easy to get along with. I have heard that Mr. Tang Mr. Xiang has always insisted on his national stance. When I saw it today, he really lived up to his reputation."
Xu Chaoyang glanced at him with a smile and said: "The old saying that blood is thicker than water is still true. Although the systems implemented by the two sides of the Taiwan Strait are different, some things that have been passed down from generation to generation will not change. In fact, as a person with political opinions Mr. Tang knows better than anyone else that why China, especially the Treasure Island issue, has attracted the attention of the international community, especially the United States, is ultimately due to the gradual rise of China. For the United States, China’s The rise is indeed a threat to their international hegemony, which is the fundamental reason why they made the decision to return to Asia and encircle China."
Nodding, Yu Fan looked at Xu Chaoyang and said with a smile: "Director Xu, I don't know if you have time now. How about we find a place to have a drink." Xu Chaoyang looked at Yu Fan and smiled. He originally wanted to find an excuse to refuse. , but there was a sudden movement in his heart and he said with a smile: "I have long heard that Comrade Yu Fan has a huge number, which is exactly what I want, haha,"
Hearing Xu Chaoyang's words, Yu Fan was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Well, it's rare that Director Xu is willing to show favor. I will arrange the place. However, Director Xu, we have hit it off, so just call me Yu Fan." "Xu Chaoyang glanced at him, laughed loudly and said, "Okay, I'll just call you Yu Fan, but brother Yu, you don't need to call you Director Xu, right?"
They are both smart people, and the friendship between the two parties is beyond words. Yu Fan naturally understood it clearly, and he laughed and said: "Since Brother Xu said so, I won't be polite, haha," Beat the Snake Yu Fan was naturally good at things like walking on sticks. Since Xu Chaoyang was already called 'Brother Yu, Brother Yu', he naturally wouldn't look too cool.
Laughing, Xu Chaoyang looked at him and said with a smile: "The most valuable thing about coming to Nanfeng this time is to get to know Brother Yu. Today we have to be close and intimate, as long as we don't get drunk and delay tomorrow's things, haha ," At this time, the elevator door had opened, and Kang Ziye, who was sitting in the lobby, saw the two of them and greeted them with a smile.
Yu Fan was smiling and asking Kang Ziye to arrange the place. Xu Chaoyang on the side stepped forward and raised his hand and said with a smile: "Brother Yu, we are just gathering today. We don't need to arrange other things." Upon hearing this, Yu Fan smiled knowingly and said : "Brother Xu, don't worry, I understand this kind of thing. Today we are just drinking and chatting, absolutely nothing else." He laughed, Xu Chaoyang patted Yu Fan on the shoulder with a smile.
Although he works in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Xu Chaoyang still understands some of the following things, but Yu Fan really has never thought about these. In the past few years since he came to Lanjiang City, Yu Fan has really not had many opportunities to go to places like that. This was all due to his thunderous methods against the 'Emperor Gang' when he first came to Lanjiang City, which really scared a lot of people. In addition, he dealt with a group of corrupt officials in Qingling District, which made everyone understand at once. In view of Yu Fan's way of doing things, let alone going to that kind of place, he rarely even entertains guests for dinner.
It's not that everyone doesn't want to invite. Being able to invite the secretary of the district committee to dinner is a good thing that no one below can hope for. But no one dares to say this, for fear of hitting the tip of a knife. This also makes Yu Fan in Qing Dynasty. A very strange situation occurred in the Ling District. A leader never accepted gifts or invitations to eat. This has also become a topic of discussion among the people below about Yu Fan.
Logically speaking, this kind of person should be regarded as an example of integrity, but among the officials, he seems to be a bit unique. After all, everyone does this, but the top leader does nothing, which will inevitably make some people feel uncomfortable. I was so worried that for a while, there was almost no sign of government personnel in various drinking and entertainment venues in Qingling District. Especially every time the Discipline Inspection Commission investigated and punished corrupt officials, this trend would tighten again. After all, no one could I don’t know if I will be the next unlucky person. This makes some people who are used to seeing government personnel come and go feel confused. They also think that there is some kind of crackdown activity. This also makes the common people feel a little uncomfortable. Why are they now officials? Have all been modified?
Naturally, Yu Fan didn't know about this, and even if he knew, he wouldn't take it seriously. After all, in his opinion, it's better for officials not to go into such places. After a long time, even if you don't do anything, people will treat you badly. Your evaluation will not be very good, not to mention there are many such temptations. How many people can make up their mind to be Liu Xiahui? Those officials who made mistakes do not all start to do so as soon as they take the leadership position. Those who make mistakes will fall into them step by step.
According to Mr. Tang's intention, the next day's itinerary omitted the step of visiting several well-developed communities in Lanjiang City, and went directly to Mr. Tang's hometown, Huanbei Town, Qingling District. Municipal Party Committee Secretary Feng Zhengming was not there today. Instead, he was accompanied by Mayor Pang Yu as the representative, which surprised Yu Fan. After all, Mr. Tang’s trip back to his hometown to worship his ancestors was a good opportunity to make a splash, and domestic and foreign media were paying close attention to it. , even the provincial TV stations and CCTV have dedicated reporting teams to Lanjiang. Secretary Feng gave up such a good opportunity to Mayor Pang Yu. This is what puzzled Yu Fan.
Due to the large number of media accompanying them, Qingling District also specially arranged a tourist bus for them. Another large bus was for Mr. Tang Jing and his accompanying persons. This was also done after Yu Fan consulted Mr. Tang and his wife. , we made such an arrangement. As the host, Yu Fan’s idea is to show the best side of Qingling District to the guests from the treasure island of the motherland. Along the way, Yu Fan also pointed out the window and introduced Mr. Tang. Mr. Tang seemed to be very interested in the development achievements of Qingling District over the years. He kept smiling and nodding. From time to time he would ask Yu Fan a few questions, and sometimes he would nod with deep feeling.
As if feeling a little emotional about the great changes in his hometown, Mr. Tang also looked out the window and sighed, saying: "When I left home to study, these places were still fertile fields, and you could only see the faint smoke from cooking stoves in the distance. , just a few decades have passed, and things have changed." Yu Fan glanced at Mayor Pang Yu and Xu Chaoyang, and smiled slightly: "In these years of reform and opening up, the changes in all parts of China are obvious. Yes, when Mr. Tang has time in the future, he should visit the motherland more often and feel the changes in various places."
Tang Jingnian smiled slightly, glanced at Yu Fan, and said: "Mr. Yu should be still very young, right?" Yu Fan was stunned, but Tang Jingnian chuckled and said: "You are already a parent official of a county at such a young age. You are really young and promising. Ah," Yu Fan didn't understand what Mr. Tang meant when he said this for a moment, but Mr. Tang looked out the window, sighed, and said, "Young man left home and returned, his local accent has not changed. "When children meet each other and don't recognize each other, they laugh and ask where the guest is from."
Yu Fan seemed to have some understanding after hearing this. He stopped saying anything. Instead, Pang Yu laughed and said, "Mr. Tang has not been back to his hometown for so many years. Today's Huanbei Town is very different. I'm afraid Mr. Tang Sir, you will be shocked when you see him." Looking back, Tang Jingnian said with a smile: "Oh, then I am looking forward to it even more. After all the changes, the old man has become gray-haired in a flash, but I don't know that his playmate back then is still there now. How many people are alive?"
Just as he was talking, the motorcade was slowly approaching Huanbei Town. The huge welcome banner at the entrance of the town and the colorful flags fluttering in the wind on both sides of the road were already in sight. At the fork in the road, Yu Fan from a distance looked at Qi Yuan and his team. With a large group of people waiting there, the motorcade slowly stopped.
