Li Ming put down his phone and was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear: "I'm going to become a deputy department cadre soon. It's great! Haha... That's great!" Originally, he was irritable because of Zhao Zilong's betrayal, but now
When I learned that I was going to become a deputy department-level cadre, my restless mood immediately disappeared, and all that was left was excitement and excitement.
…
The news that Dongcheng County was going to be promoted to a county-level city spread quickly. Many people were very excited when they heard about it. They were about to be promoted. How could they not be excited?
County Party Committee Secretary's Office.
Ma Xiaoyao sat on a chair and asked Cheng Wenyong: "Secretary Cheng, I heard that Dongcheng County is going to be promoted to a county-level city? Is this news true?"
Cheng Wenyong nodded: "It should be true! Dongcheng County is now developing rapidly and its economy is getting stronger. It is expected that it will be promoted to a county-level city."
"So... we are all going to be promoted?" Ma Xiaoyao's eyes lit up.
"That's true!" Cheng Wenyong said with a smile: "Once Dongcheng County is promoted to a county-level city, the levels of all leading cadres will be raised by half a level. For example, I will be promoted from the director level to the deputy department level, and Li Ming,
He will also be promoted to deputy director level."
"What about me? Will I also become a deputy department-level cadre?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"This..." Cheng Wenyong pondered for a moment, then shook his head: "It's probably impossible."
"Impossible?" Ma Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment: "Didn't you just say that the levels of all leading cadres will be raised by half a level? I am now at the director level. If I raise half a level again, I will be the deputy department level?"
Cheng Wenyong smiled bitterly and said: "Xiaoyao, according to the formal procedures, county-level cities are only allowed to have two deputy department-level cadres, one is the county party secretary and the other is the county magistrate. Others are not eligible to be promoted to the deputy department level.
"." At this point, Cheng Wenyong paused: "You, the executive deputy county magistrate, should be at the deputy division level. Later, because you made a lot of contributions, your superiors made an exception and promoted you to the full division level. This time in Dongcheng
If the county is upgraded to a county-level city, your level should not change, and it is estimated that you will still be at the full-division level."
Ma Xiaoyao's face twitched: "So, I won't get any benefit at all?"
"You can't say that." Cheng Wenyong waved his hand: "After Dongcheng County becomes a county-level city, our titles will also change. The county party secretary will become the city party secretary, and the county chief will change.
If you become the mayor, the deputy county magistrate becomes the deputy mayor, and you will be Deputy Mayor Ma from now on."
"Deputy Mayor Ma?" Ma Xiaoyao smiled, but it was a forced smile: "Deputy Mayor at the department level? Why do I feel so awkward?"
"County-level cities cannot compare with prefecture-level cities, let alone municipalities directly under the central government. The municipal party committee secretaries, mayors, and deputy mayors of county-level cities are not as good as the municipal party committee secretaries, municipal party committee secretaries, and municipal party committee secretaries of prefecture-level cities.
The value of being a mayor is much different, and the deputy mayor level of a county-level city is the director level." Cheng Wenyong said.
Ma Xiaoyao chirped: "After a long time of trouble, I got the title of deputy mayor, and this deputy mayor is still a showman, not much valuable at all. Why is my life so miserable?"
"Xiaoyao, don't say that." Cheng Wenyong frowned: "Not everyone can get the title of deputy mayor. Your level may not be improved now, but you can't say for sure in the future. Dongcheng County will be
Being promoted to a county-level city means that it has received great attention from provincial leaders. As long as you work steadily, you will definitely be promoted and re-employed in a short time."
"I hope so." Ma Xiaoyao felt a little depressed. Everyone's level has been improved, but he is stuck in the same place. It's really frustrating! Strictly speaking, Dongcheng County can develop so rapidly, 90% of it is impossible.
It is Ma Xiaoyao's contribution. In other words, without Ma Xiaoyao's contribution, Dongcheng County would never be as prosperous and powerful as it is today, and it would be impossible to be promoted to a county-level city.
Dongcheng County can be promoted to the county and city level. Ma Xiaoyao is definitely the first hero. It stands to reason that he, the first hero, should receive the most rewards, but the result is just the opposite. He, the first hero, should receive the least rewards.
of.
No matter how broad-minded Ma Xiaoyao is, there will still be some knots in his heart. This world is so unfair! He worked so hard and finally made a wedding dress for someone else. Is there anyone in the world who is more useless than himself?
Cheng Wenyong glanced at Ma Xiaoyao: "Xiaoyao, I know you feel uncomfortable, but...some things are just like this. You have no other choice but to accept it. People are so helpless in life."
Ma Xiaoyao breathed out softly: "Secretary Cheng, you are right, people are very helpless when they are alive."
"Be more open-minded." Cheng Wenyong reached out and patted Ma Xiaoyao on the shoulder: "You have to learn to look forward."
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "I understand, I understand all these principles, but I feel a little uncomfortable in my heart. Forget it, let's not talk about this. Secretary Cheng, there is something you may not know yet. Zhao Zilong has surrendered to me.
Already."
"What?" Cheng Wenyong was stunned: "Zhao Zilong has taken refuge in you? Are you kidding me?"
"Do you think I'm joking?" Ma Xiaoyao curled his lips: "Zhao Zilong has indeed surrendered to me."
"What's going on?" Cheng Wenyong asked: "As far as I know, Zhao Zilong is very stubborn, or rigid. How could he betray Li Ming and join you? Doesn't this make sense?"
Ma Xiaoyao smiled slightly: "No matter how stubborn or rigid a person is, there will be weaknesses. As long as you find this weakness correctly, you can make the other party obedient."
"Weakness?" Cheng Wenyong nodded thoughtfully: "Have you found Zhao Zilong's weakness?"
"Yes." Ma Xiaoyao chuckled: "Zhao Zilong's weakness is his wife..." Next, Ma Xiaoyao simply said what he had planned against Zhao Zilong. For Cheng Wenyong, Ma Xiaoyao has no worries, so
Ma Xiaoyao did not hide many things from Cheng Wenyong.
After listening to Ma Xiaoyao's narration, Cheng Wenyong suddenly said with laughter and tears: "You are so... damaged! You actually used such an insidious method to plot against Zhao Zilong. I guess Zhao Zilong must hate you to death at this moment!"
"Actually, I don't want to use such insidious means, but Zhao Zilong is too rigid. If we want to deal with him, we can only use some unconventional means. There is no other way." Ma Xiaoyao shrugged helplessly.
"You... Zhao Zilong's greatest misfortune is to meet you." Cheng Wenyong smiled bitterly and shook his head: "By the way, does Li Ming know that Zhao Zilong betrayed him?"
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "I already know, Li Ming was almost mad to death."
"If it were me, I would be very angry." Cheng Wenyong sighed: "Xiaoyao, you are getting more and more powerful. I am a little afraid of you. Fortunately, you and I are not enemies, otherwise I would have slept at night.
I can’t sleep anymore.”
"It's not that exaggerated." Ma Xiaoyao smiled: "I'm just a little clever and have some tricks."
"Once your cleverness and little tricks are used, most people will not be able to bear it." Cheng Wenyong smiled and said: "Now, Li Ming only has Ye Xiaotian left. If Ye Xiaotian is recruited again, then Li Ming will
He has truly become a polished commander."
"I'm trying to think of ways to recruit Ye Xiaotian." Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile, "It's only for a while, and I can't think of a safe way."
"Let me give you an idea." Cheng Wenyong said: "As far as I know, Ye Xiaotian and Zhao Zilong have a good personal relationship. They have been old friends for many years. You can ask Zhao Zilong to be a lobbyist to help you recruit Ye Xiaotian."
"I'm afraid this won't work." Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "At least it won't work for the time being. Zhao Zilong was recruited by me with a trick, and he must be very resentful towards me. Now that I ask Zhao Zilong to recruit Ye Xiaotian, Zhao Zilong will definitely not agree.
of."
Cheng Wenyong nodded: "This is indeed a problem. If you want Zhao Zilong to sincerely join you, you still need to work hard."
"Since I have a way to instigate Zhao Zilong, I am sure to conquer him! It just takes a little time!" Ma Xiaoyao said confidently: "As for Ye Xiaotian, I will slowly find a way to recruit him. Again, as long as he is a human being, he will do it.
There are weaknesses, and Ye Xiaotian is no exception. As long as I find Ye Xiaotian's weakness, I will be sure to instigate him!"
"I have confidence in you!" Cheng Wenyong smiled.
The two chatted for a while, and Ma Xiaoyao stood up and left. Cheng Wenyong personally sent Ma Xiaoyao out the door, and watched Ma Xiaoyao go downstairs. Cheng Wenyong breathed out gently and nodded secretly: "I really didn't see the wrong person.
Ma Xiaoyao is really made to be an official, as long as nothing happens in the future, Ma Xiaoyao will definitely have a great future!"
…
After Ma Xiaoyao returned to his office, he sat alone on a chair, smoking cigarettes one after another, his brows furrowed. In a moment, the huge office was filled with thick smoke.
"Crunch!"
Secretary Wang Xiaolong pushed the door open and walked in. As soon as he entered, he was choked by the thick smoke and coughed. He hurriedly held his breath and walked quickly to the window. He stretched out his hand and opened the window. The breeze blew in and slowly dispersed the office.
Gathering smoke.
Wang Xiaolong took a breath and looked up at Ma Xiaoyao, who was still smoking. He found that Ma Xiaoyao frowned and looked very unhappy: "Boss, what's wrong with you? Did something unhappy happen to you?"
"
Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "Xiaolong, did you know? Dongcheng County will soon be promoted to a county-level city."
"Ah?" Wang Xiaolong was stunned: "County-level city? Dongcheng County is going to become a county-level city?"
"Once Dongcheng County becomes a county-level city, the levels of all leading cadres will be raised by half a level, of course, excluding me." Ma Xiaoyao said calmly.
"Not including you? Why not include you?" Wang Xiaolong asked doubtfully.
