Xu Honggang glanced at Wei Xiaobei and Zhang Tianfu, "The negative public opinion on the Internet was directly intervened by the provincial propaganda department. How much trouble do you think the public relations you paid for can cause?"
Wei Xiaobei was shocked when he heard this, "Why did the provincial propaganda department help Qiao Liang?"
Xu Honggang snorted, "This matter was personally ordered by Secretary Zheng Guohong, the top leader in the province. What do you think?"
Hearing Xu Honggang's words, Wei Xiaobei and Zhang Tianfu were stunned. Qiao Liang's matter actually alarmed the top leaders in the province, and the other party actually took the initiative to protect Qiao Liang.
"This... this Qiao Liang is too awesome now." Zhang Tianfu said in a daze.
Xu Honggang curled his lips and said, "This is not necessarily because of how awesome that kid Qiao Liang is, but because you are doing this too much. If you had only let Qiao Liang drink two more glasses of wine, this matter wouldn't have ended up like this. .”
Zhang Tianfu said helplessly, "Mayor Xu, you can't blame us. It's not that we don't let Qiao Liang drink more, but that Qiao Liang doesn't drink, and we can't force him to drink."
Xu Honggang smacked his lips, "It's such a pity that we missed such a good opportunity this time. If we could meet the standard for drunk driving, everything would be easier."
"Mayor Xu, shouldn't public officials be severely punished for drunk driving?" Zhang Tianfu said sarcastically.
"Drunk driving and drunk driving are two different words, but they are worlds apart. Drunk driving requires criminal detention, but if it involves criminal punishment, the meaning is different. As a public official, after assuming criminal responsibility, he must also accept Disciplinary measures, no one will be able to protect Qiao Liang. Now he only committed a drunk driving incident, and I can't even try my best." Xu Honggang was a little irritated. He received a call from Su Huaxin at noon today and learned that Zheng Guohong had taken action. After intervening in the matter, Xu Honggang knew that Qiao Liang's drunk driving matter was out of control. Although he was unwilling to do so, Xu Honggang did not dare to make any small moves anymore. After all, Zheng Guohong had spoken, and Xu Honggang did not dare to confront Zheng Guohong openly.
Hearing what Xu Honggang said, Wei Xiaobei and Zhang Tianfu also knew that Qiao Liang had screwed up. Zhang Tianfu said, "I guess Qiao Liang hates me to death. He must be suspicious of me now. I will be in Jiangzhou in the future." You really have to be careful, otherwise Qiao Liang will definitely cause trouble for me."
Wei Xiaobei listened and said, "Mr. Zhang, you are a bit worried. With Mayor Xu protecting you, what can Qiao Liang do to you?"
Zhang Tianfu looked at Wei Xiaobei disapprovingly. He said the word "official" in Chinese. The words spoken by officials are the most untrustworthy. Zhang Tianfu really didn't believe in the promise Xu Honggang made before.
Xu Honggang didn't know what Zhang Tianfu was thinking. Seeing that Qiao Liang's matter was no longer feasible, he didn't bother to think about it anymore. He was focused on another thing at the moment. He looked at Zhang Tianfu and asked, "When will your father come to Jiangzhou?"
Zhang Tianfu said, "We'll be there tomorrow."
Xu Honggang nodded when he heard this, "Okay, when your father arrives, I will have a good talk with him. Although Qiao Liang's matter did not work out this time, you have also paid a lot, and I will definitely not treat you badly."
Hearing what Xu Honggang said, Zhang Tianfu nodded doubtfully. As long as it was not about the benefits of eating it, Zhang Tianfu would be somewhat skeptical about Xu Honggang's promise.
Xu Honggang was thinking about his own affairs in his mind. He put Qiao Liang's affairs aside for the time being. What he was thinking about now was how to achieve political achievements. There were two or three unfinished real estate projects in Shizhong District. Xu Honggang planned to start from this aspect and revitalize a few unfinished properties. Real estate, this is a great thing to do for the people. For those owners who have bought unfinished buildings and have no home, as long as the matter is completed, it is not an exaggeration to say that they will be grateful. When the time comes, let the media Coupled with the publicity and hype, this is an excellent promotional material.
Things are done well, which is also a political achievement. Now that Xu Honggang has become the mayor, he is not full of intrigues and intrigues. He also wants to make some achievements, because Xu Honggang knows very well that he wants to rise further, and only he can achieve it by himself. Su Huaxin had to speak up for him so that he could be stronger.
As for the unfinished building, Xu Honggang planned to ask the Zhang family's Fucheng Group to cooperate with him. Fucheng Group has certain strength and started out in real estate. It would undoubtedly be very suitable for them to cooperate with him. , Of course, doing this kind of thing is a bit thankless. After all, there is no profit from those unfinished buildings, so Xu Honggang has to find ways to compensate Fucheng Group in other ways and give them enough benefits. Therefore, this matter requires Xu Honggang and Zhang Tianfu The father was interviewed in detail,
Xu Honggang was thinking about his little plan while drinking and chatting with Wei Xiaobei and Zhang Tianfu. On the other side, Liao Gufeng had several drinks with Qiao Liang's parents, and when they had almost finished dinner, the two parties ended the dinner. Liao Gufeng asked Lu Qian's mother and Lu Qian to accompany Qiao Liang's parents to go shopping in the city and buy some things, while he took Qiao Liang to the hot spring town.
On the way, Liao Gufeng called Zheng Guohong and learned that Zheng Guohong was already waiting at the resort hotel in the town. After Liao Gufeng asked about the name of the hotel and the private room, he hung up the phone.
After driving for half an hour and arriving at the resort hotel in the hot spring town, Liao Gufeng took Qiao Liang straight to the hotel box. Zheng Guohong was already in the box. In addition to Zheng Guohong, there was also Zheng Guohong's secretary Zhang Shangwen in the huge box. .
Seeing Liao Gufeng coming, Zheng Guohong stood up and greeted Liao Gufeng with a smile on his face, "You are here."
Liao Gufeng's identity was different now, and Zhang Shangwen showed a respectful attitude.
Liao Gufeng smiled and waved his hand, "Everyone, sit down."
Liao Gufeng patted Zheng Guohong on the shoulder as he spoke, "Comrade Guohong, I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting for so long."
Liao Gufeng's behavior was a bit intimate, and the smile on Zheng Guohong's face became even bigger, "You've met me, haven't you? Besides, this doesn't conflict with the time you said. In the evening, you said after eight o'clock, but now it's not be late."
Liao Gufeng nodded, and without being too polite to Zheng Guohong, asked, "Have you had dinner?"
Zheng Guohong smiled and said, "Not yet, I won't wait for you to come with me."
After hearing this, Liao Gufeng said quickly, "Then let the hotel serve the food quickly. I've already had a meal and came over. Didn't I tell you that you don't have to wait."
Zheng Guohong smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, I'm not hungry anyway. When I get busy with work, it's normal to have dinner at eight or nine in the evening."
Liao Gufeng said, "People are like rice and steel. Comrade Guohong, people say you are a desperate man. I think it is absolutely right. You should pay more attention to taking care of your body. Only by having a good body can you contribute more to your career." "
Zheng Guohong smiled and nodded, "Yes, I get up early every day to exercise now."
Zheng Guohong knew that Liao Gufeng's words were not just a simple greeting. Nowadays, organizations are indeed paying more and more attention to the health of leading cadres. It is also gradually clear in the relevant regulations that those with some physical diseases are no longer suitable for front-line leaders. position, so saying that the body is the capital of a career is no longer a lie.
The two were chatting and laughing. Liao Gufeng pointed to Qiao Liang on the side and said, "Comrade Guohong, I brought Xiao Qiao here with me, so there's no need for any further introduction, right?"
Zheng Guohong smiled and said, "What else is there to introduce? I am also very familiar with Xiao Qiao."
Zheng Guohong said, teasing Qiao Liang with a smile, "Xiao Qiao, do I have to congratulate you today? I think you have to drink a lot tonight. The ancients said that there are three great joys in life: meeting an old friend in a foreign country, a night of flowers and candles in the bridal chamber, and being named on the gold list. Although you are not officially married yet, I think it counts as an engagement. You must drink two more drinks tonight to make me happy too."
Qiao Liang said quickly, "Secretary Zheng, if you are so interested, I will definitely drink two more drinks with you."
Zheng Guohong said with a smile, "Not only am I interested, but I am also very excited. I must make an exception and drink more tonight."
Qiao Liang nodded immediately. He knew that Zheng Guohong said this to give him face. This was undoubtedly because of Liao Gufeng, otherwise Zheng Guohong would never be so polite to him even if he looked up to him.
Next to him, Zhang Shangwen looked at Qiao Liang with a bit of envy. Qiao Liang had really turned into a phoenix. Although Qiao Liang was an outstanding young talent before and was highly appreciated by his leaders, he was different now. , Qiao Liang's status in Zheng Guohong's heart has undoubtedly been qualitatively improved.
After the two parties were polite, they took their seats. The food was served quickly in the hotel. At Liao Gufeng's signal, Qiao Liang first took the initiative to toast Zheng Guohong. Zheng Guohong also stood up and had a drink with Qiao Liang in a dignified manner.
After the two drank, Zheng Guohong toasted Liao Gufeng, and they sat down to eat and chat. As Zheng Guohong was talking, the conversation suddenly changed and he looked at Qiao Liang and said, "Xiao Qiao, have you ever thought about coming to the province?" Work?"
"Ah?" Qiao Liang was stunned. He didn't expect that Zheng Guohong would take the initiative to ask him if he was willing to work in the province, and this was an invitation from the other party. Qiao Liang knew that Zheng Guohong would never arrange a bad position for him, otherwise Zheng Guohong would not Open this mouth.
Not to mention, Qiao Liang was a little excited for a moment. After all, working in the province would provide a higher platform, better opportunities, and greater room for advancement in the future.
Qiao Liang thought to himself and subconsciously turned to look at Liao Gufeng. At this time, he obviously wanted to hear Liao Gufeng's opinion.
Liao Gufeng looked indifferent. Seeing Qiao Liang looking at him, he said calmly, "Xiao Qiao, you decide this for yourself, but you have to think about it carefully. Whether you work in the city or in the province, you must always remember the eight One word: Do your duty with a clear conscience.”
Liao Gufeng knew very well that Zheng Guohong suddenly extended an olive branch to Qiao Liang for his sake, and Zheng Guohong took the initiative to recruit Xiao Qiao this time, more or less because he wanted to further bind him. It seemed that he was supporting Xiao Qiao, but in fact It's a gesture of goodwill to him.
Zheng Guohong saw that Qiao Liang was a little moved, and then said, "Xiao Qiao, it just so happens that the position of director of the third comprehensive division of the provincial office is still vacant recently. If you are willing to work in the province, I think it would be very good for you to be the director of the third division. suitable."
