"Seeing that you are anxious, I just said it casually, with no other meaning." Gu Li said with a smile.
"No...Sister Gu, I really didn't peek at Wu Caixia...Wu Caixia is beautiful, but she still doesn't attract my interest..." Ma Xiaoyao continued to explain.
Gu Li was amused: "Wu Caixia can't arouse your interest? Then who can arouse your interest?"
"Of course it's you, Sister Gu... uh..." As soon as Ma Xiaoyao finished speaking, he realized that he had said the wrong thing. Seeing the change in Gu Li's expression, Ma Xiaoyao's heart suddenly tightened: "No, Sister Gu,
What I mean is that you are much prettier than Wu Caixia. If I want to find a wife in the future, I will also find a woman as mature, beautiful, charming, generous, and virtuous as Sister Gu..."
"Am I really as good as you say?" Gu Li is also a woman, and she also wants to be praised, especially by a man she likes.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded repeatedly: "I don't know what other people think of you, and I can't care about it, but in my eyes, Sister Gu, you are the most beautiful woman in the world."
"You little mouth, you are so good at complimenting people, it makes me feel embarrassed." Gu Li's face turned slightly red.
Just as Ma Xiaoyao was about to praise Gu Li a few more words and connect her feelings, she was interrupted by a knock on the door. Ma Xiaoyao frowned and cursed in his heart: Who is this? Why is it so annoying? If you don't come early, you won't come late.
, you just come when you are "connecting with your feelings", isn't this a distraction! It's annoying!
Gu Li raised her head and said to the door: "Please come in."
"Squeak..." The door was pushed open, and Chen Yinghao walked in holding a wine glass.
It turned out that Chen Yinghao came in to toast, and Gu Li came to eat. Chen Yinghao, both emotionally and logically, should come to toast and show respect.
Out of politeness, Gu Li and Ma Xiaoyao had a drink with Chen Yinghao.
After toasting, Chen Yinghao left the private room.
The atmosphere was quite good, but it was ruined by Chen Yinghao's lightbulb. Ma Xiaoyao felt quite depressed.
"Ma Xiaoyao, I really didn't realize that you are quite capable." Gu Li praised.
Ma Xiaoyao smiled: "There are no means, I'm just a little clever... Well, Sister Gu, if you encounter any problems that you can't handle in the future, just come and ask me directly. I will give you some advice and I will definitely help you solve it."
The problem is solved." In front of the woman he likes, men always have the habit of raising their abilities in order to attract the attention and attention of the woman they like. Sometimes, it is really difficult for men to do this.
"Don't tell me, I really encountered a problem recently." Gu Li nodded and said.
"What's the problem? You tell me, and I'll give you some advice." Ma Xiaoyao was very excited when he heard this. This was a good opportunity for him to show off. Of course, Ma Xiaoyao couldn't miss it.
Gu Li pondered for a moment: "Ma Xiaoyao, are you familiar with the official situation in Lanhai City?"
"This... I know a little bit about it, but I'm not very clear." Ma Xiaoyao smiled awkwardly.
"Then let me explain it to you." Gu Li said patiently: "The biggest official in Lanhai City is Liu Yuncai, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, followed by Mayor Lin Haixiang. Since Lanhai City has too much work, the mayor alone can't be busy.
Come, so we have several deputy mayors to share the burden on the mayor's shoulders. There are a total of six deputy mayors in Lanhai City. Each deputy mayor has a different division of labor. For example, I am mainly responsible for education.
There is also a ranking among deputy mayors in terms of health work. The number one ranking is Executive Vice Mayor Tian Yinglong, whose power is second only to that of the mayor. My ranking is almost at the bottom. It can be said that among all the deputy mayors, my ranking is the highest.
His status is the lowest, and his power is also the least."
"One Lanhai City is equipped with six deputy mayors. Isn't this too much?" Ma Xiaoyao frowned.
Gu Li smiled: "Lanhai City is a strong industrial city, ranking high in the province. As the city is prosperous and powerful, it faces a lot of work, and the six deputy mayors are almost too busy.
"
"Oh, that's it." Ma Xiaoyao nodded.
"Promotion in the officialdom is also very particular. First, you need political performance, secondly, qualifications, and finally, luck. All three are indispensable, otherwise it will be difficult to be promoted." Gu Li sighed: "Mayor Lin Haixiang has a few more
He is about to retire in May, and if nothing else happens, one person should be selected from among the six deputy mayors to take over the position of mayor."
Ma Xiaoyao's eyes lit up: "That's a good thing. In this way, Sister Gu, you will have the hope of becoming the mayor." The gap between the deputy mayor and the mayor is not that small.
Gu Li shook her head and said with a wry smile: "Based on my qualifications, it is almost impossible to succeed as mayor... The most promising person now is Executive Vice Mayor Tian Yinglong."
"Sister Gu, don't be discouraged. There are exceptions to everything. If you didn't fight for it, how do you know you can't take over as mayor?" Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile.
"I'm not discouraged, I'm self-aware." Gu Li waved her hand: "In terms of qualifications and connections, Tian Yinglong is better than me. When the superior leaders inspect, Tian Yinglong will definitely be listed as the first candidate to succeed the mayor, and
I...can't compete with Tian Yinglong at all."
Ma Xiaoyao glanced at Gu Li, and then said: "Sister Gu, do you really want to be the mayor?"
"Of course, I also want to rise to the top, so I don't have to act based on other people's faces in the future." Gu Li nodded: "It's a pity that I don't have the ability."
"Sister Gu, who makes the final decision on the candidate for mayor?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"First, the city nominates, that is, Municipal Party Committee Secretary Liu Yuncai recommends candidates to the province, and then the provincial leaders investigate and study them. The final decision is made by the provincial leaders." Gu Li explained the procedure.
"Oh." Ma Xiaoyao nodded slightly: "Sister Ma, under normal circumstances, will the provincial leaders veto the candidates recommended by Liu Yuncai, the secretary of the municipal party committee?"
Gu Li shook her head: "Normally not. When electing a mayor, the opinion of the municipal party secretary is very important. After all, the mayor will work with the municipal party secretary in the future. If the municipal party secretary and the mayor do not deal with it, they will directly
Influence the development of a city.”
"So, Secretary Liu Yuncai's opinion is the most important?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"Yes, as long as you can get Secretary Liu's support, you can basically take over as mayor." Gu Li nodded and said: "As far as I know, Secretary Liu also has a background in the province, as long as he is the candidate recommended by Secretary Liu
, the provincial leaders will definitely not veto it."
"Then how is your relationship with Secretary Liu?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"This..." Gu Li thought for a while: "It's not bad. I worked in the municipal party committee for a period of time. At that time, I met Secretary Liu more often, and we could chat occasionally. Secretary Liu was very easy-going.
There’s no airs and it’s easy to get along with.”
Ma Xiaoyao smiled: "Isn't that enough? Just contact Secretary Liu and let him recommend you to be the mayor."
Gu Li rolled her eyes at Ma Xiaoyao: "You are thinking too simply. My personal relationship with Secretary Liu is good, but the relationship between Executive Vice Mayor Tian Yinglong and Secretary Liu is not bad, or even better than mine. So,
In both emotional and rational terms, Secretary Liu should recommend Tian Yinglong."
"Oh?" Ma Xiaoyao frowned: "I didn't expect that Tian Yinglong is also related to Secretary Liu... Well, Sister Gu, let me ask you, if Tian Yinglong doesn't compete with you, what are your chances of becoming the mayor?
"
"What do you want to do? Don't do anything random! Tian Yinglong and Wei Zhengming are different. Don't do stupid things!" Gu Li said anxiously.
Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand: "I'm just assuming, I don't mean anything else... Sister Gu, I do things in a measured way."
When she heard that Ma Xiaoyao was just assuming and had no other thoughts, Gu Li breathed a sigh of relief: "Without Tian Yinglong's competition, I should be...50% sure of becoming the mayor."
"50% sure?" Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "The probability is not low..." After thinking about it for a while, Ma Xiaoyao asked Gu Li: "Sister Gu, what is Tian Yinglong like as a person?"
"How do you say it?" Gu Li shook her head: "Tian Yinglong is a serious person, so his subordinates are afraid of him. Moreover, Tian Yinglong is an official fanatic and has a very high desire for power. As far as I know, Tian Yinglong rose from the grassroots level step by step.
The person who came up has many political achievements and is considered a big celebrity in Lanzhou City." Gu Li introduced briefly.
"What about Tian Yinglong being an official? Is he an upright official? Or is he a corrupt official?" Ma Xiaoyao continued to ask.
"How do I know this? I don't have a close relationship with Tian Yinglong, but according to my observation, Tian Yinglong doesn't look like that kind of corrupt official." Gu Li said uncertainly: "Ma Xiaoyao, why are you asking so many questions?"
Ma Xiaoyao licked his dry lips, moved closer to Gu Li, and said in a low voice: "Sister Gu, we can use some strategies to make Tian Yinglong lose the qualification to compete for mayor. In this way, you can hope to ascend to the position.
Already."
Gu Li raised her eyebrows: "What strategy are you using? Ma Xiaoyao, I can tell you that I will not do anything that is harmful to nature."
Ma Xiaoyao smiled: "Sister Gu, look at what you said, when did I ask you to do something that is unreasonable? I just want to use some...normal competitive methods to help you get to the top. Isn't this considered unreasonable?"
"Normal means? What means?" Gu Li asked doubtfully.
Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "I haven't thought about it yet. I need to investigate to see if Tian Yinglong has done anything illegal or disciplinary." Ma Xiaoyao thought very simply. If he could find out evidence that Tian Yinglong violated the law, he would
, that would be easier to handle, just hand the evidence over to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, and then Tian Yinglong would be overthrown.
"Don't mess around. Tian Yinglong is the executive deputy mayor and has great influence in Lanhai City. If he finds out that you are secretly investigating him, Tian Yinglong will definitely not let you go. Even I won't be able to save you by then."
Gu Li said worriedly.
Ma Xiaoyao smiled slightly: "Sister Gu, don't worry, I do things in a measured way. Okay, that's it for today. Let's eat quickly. The dishes are almost cold." As he spoke, Ma Xiaoyao picked up a
He started gnawing on the pork knuckle. "Seeing how anxious you are, I just said it casually, with no other meaning." Gu Li said with a smile.
"No...Sister Gu, I really didn't peek at Wu Caixia...Wu Caixia is beautiful, but she still doesn't attract my interest..." Ma Xiaoyao continued to explain.
