After negotiating with Xiao Zheng, Xiao Jingyu called Minister Liu and asked when Minister Liu would be free and wanted to treat him to a meal.
Minister Liu said: "Tonight, I am a bit free, but I only have two hours at most. I have a meeting tomorrow morning and I have to speak, and I have to read the manuscript in the evening."
Xiao Jingyu said: "No problem, we can't delay Minister Liu too much time, otherwise other cadres will have ideas." Minister Liu said with a smile: "Our Organization Department is not as popular as Mayor Xiao imagined.
Then see you tonight."
In the past, Xiao Jingyu was the county party secretary, and Minister Liu was the city leader. Xiao Jingyu had to make an appointment in advance if he wanted to meet with Minister Liu. Now, Xiao Jingyu is the deputy mayor, and is in charge of economic work. Naturally, he has an important role in Minister Liu's heart.
It's even more serious. Therefore, all Xiao Jingyu needs to make an appointment with Minister Liu is a phone call.
Minister Liu happened to be free today, so Xiao Jingyu said to Xiao Zheng, "Would you like to join us tonight?" Xiao Zheng said, "If you have secret work to discuss, I won't participate." Xiao Jingyu said, "Minister Liu
He said that he has two hours. After you accompany him for more than an hour, you can go back to An County early. I will then recommend the relevant cadres to Minister Liu." Xiao Zheng nodded and said, "Okay."
That night, I had dinner at a private restaurant in a neighborhood called Zhuangyuan Street in Jingzhou City.
Xiao Zheng is from Anxian County, so he doesn’t really know much about the history of Jingzhou City. Logically speaking, Xiao Jingyu is from Hangzhou and is not very familiar with Jingzhou City. But from the city hall of the new district, on the way to Zhuangyuan Street
, Xiao Jingyu introduced Xiao Zheng to the past and present life of Jingzhou City, which shows that she had an in-depth understanding of it when she arrived in Jingzhou.
She said that this city was once very glorious and produced many champions. Because this street was called "Zhuangyuan Street", it had a strong voice in the court for a while; secondly, it was across the water from "Zhuangyuan Street".
There is an exquisite small stone bridge on it. Beyond the bridge is "Xiaoxi Street", which is a civilian area.
On the west side of "Zhuangyuan Street" and "Xiaoxi Street" is "Yishang Street". As you can imagine from the name, there are many shops there. Outside Yishang Street are the old food markets, docks, etc.
Wait. Xiao Jingyu said: "We are now traveling through the historical sediments."
Xiao Zheng looked out the window and saw that the streets, tree-lined streets and a Republic of China building that appeared from time to time all seemed to have a kind of vitality. He then heard Xiao Jingyu say again: "No matter what stage in history, a city has management
Managers also need managers. Today, the times have put this task in our hands. Every time we go to a place, we should make it better, right?"
When Xiao Zheng heard this, he pulled his eyes back from the window and smiled at Xiao Jingyu. Xiao Jingyu also noticed Xiao Zheng's eyes and couldn't help but feel confused: "Why are you smiling like that?" Xiao Zheng said: "Everyone said,
People are divided into groups. It seems to be true. What Mayor Xiao said just now really comes to my heart. If a person serves as a cadre, what’s the point of not doing a good job in a place?"
Xiao Jingyu shook his head slightly: "Unfortunately, not everyone thinks like you do. In the eyes of many people, the system is a huge resource field. Everyone squeezes in just to occupy the resources, and the more they can.
The better. If someone really wants to do something practical and it prevents them from taking advantage of these resources, they may encounter many obstacles."
Xiao Zheng felt that what Xiao Jingyu said was quite right. This is the current situation, but he still said: "Then build a road across the mountains and build a bridge across the water." "Build a road over the mountains and build a bridge over the water?" Xiao Jingyu repeated and looked at Xiao again.
Zheng, "You are quite courageous."
Xiao Zheng said: "This is not what I said. Recently, I saw a series of signed articles on 'Embracing the Qianjiang River' in the "Jiangzhong Daily", which talked about many things like 'opening roads across mountains and building bridges across rivers'
''Leading cadres should contribute to the economic and social development of a place and benefit the people of a place. They should have political achievements and must pursue political achievements. Our political achievements are to do things that warm people's hearts, stabilize people's hearts, and win people's hearts' and so on. This is what I am preparing for the public meeting.
I discovered it accidentally when I was doing the selection, and later I dug out all his articles and read them. I benefited a lot and learned a lot.”
Hearing what Xiao Zheng said, Xiao Jingyu was also quite interested: "Really? Haiyan, tomorrow you can help me compile a copy of this signed article on 'Embracing the Qianjiang'. I also want to learn from it." Li Haiyan, who was sitting in the passenger seat,
He immediately agreed: "Okay, I will sort it out tomorrow."
When they arrived at the restaurant, Xiao Jingyu and Xiao Zheng sat down and waited for a while. Minister Liu also arrived. When he saw Xiao Zheng, he shook hands with them and said with a smile: "Is County Magistrate Xiao here too?" Xiao Jingyu said: "Today,
County Magistrate Xiao came to sit with me and introduced how they were working on the location of "Hidden Dragon and Sword Rain". So, I asked him to come with me and offer Minister Liu a glass of wine."
"You have indeed done a good job in this matter! You were able to get the location of "Hidden Dragon and Sword Rain" directed by Li Jieren to be located in An County. This matter is very influential. The organization directors of Jia City and Yong City heard about it.
They even called me! I told them that I would tell them next time when we film, and they would also like to come and have a look!"
Xiao Zheng laughed: "Really? I can make arrangements then." Minister Liu said: "They are joking, don't take it seriously. But you did a good job in this matter." Xiao Zheng said: "It's the county
Secretary Sun took me and the town cadres to fight for it." Minister Liu said: "Comrade Sun Yiqi came down from the province and finally did something influential, which can be considered a good start.
.Come, today, it is not Xiao Zheng who respects me, but I who come to respect Comrade Xiao Zheng and contribute to increasing the influence of Jingzhou!"
"No, no, I'm sure I'll pay tribute to Minister Liu." Xiao Zheng said modestly, "If Minister Liu hadn't pushed me to the platform of deputy county magistrate, I wouldn't have had a chance to do anything." Xiao Jingyu also said: "Minister Liu,
Xiao Zheng is telling the truth. Cadres need a platform and a position to do their work, otherwise no matter how great their abilities are, they will ultimately be unable to display their ambitions because there is no stage. Xiao Zheng and I respect you together."
Minister Liu was very happy and said: "Then let's stop toasting each other and have a drink together. I am happiest when I drink with you. There is no burden. You bring me good news almost every time, so I am in a good mood and drink."
You can drink it."
Although Minister Liu said he would speak at the meeting tomorrow, he did not restrain himself from drinking today, which showed that he really liked drinking with Xiao Jingyu and Xiao Zheng.
After drinking a few drinks, Minister Liu suddenly said: "Comrade Xiao Zheng, if I had known that you were here, I would have called your soon-to-be daughter-in-law Chen Hong here. I heard that she did everything for your public election.
The wedding was postponed from May 1st to October 1st, right? It finally paid off, Xiao Zheng was successfully elected. It seems that Chen Hong’s decision was also correct."
But in fact, this is not the case at all. When Chen Hong wanted to postpone the engagement, she wanted to punish Xiao Zheng for being "disobedient." But she didn't expect that she said in the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department that it was Xiao Zheng's "public election" that could succeed.
Just postponed the wedding!
Xiao Zheng felt that Chen Hong's true situation and what she wanted to show to others were always inconsistent. This made Xiao Zheng feel uncomfortable. But in today's situation, it was not easy for him to correct him, so he just said:
"Did Chen Hong also talk about these private matters in the ministry?"
Minister Liu said: "This is not just your private matter. When you get married, one is a cadre in our department, the other is the deputy county magistrate of the county, and is also our municipal cadre. Our Organization Department is a 'cadre'
Well, so we must be concerned. Chen Hong also sent me an invitation, asking me to be your officiant when the time comes. I have already agreed to her."
Officiant? Xiao Zheng didn't expect that Chen Hong had asked Minister Liu to be the officiant! There was no discussion with him about this matter.
Before, Chen Hong was unhappy because he didn't hear her applying for the city government office, but today she invited Minister Liu to be the wedding host, but she didn't tell her at all.
Xiao Zheng couldn't help but glance at Xiao Jingyu. The expression on Xiao Jingyu's face did not change at all. Xiao Zheng didn't know what Xiao Jingyu was thinking now? Xiao Zheng could only thank Minister Liu.
When he saw that the time was almost up, Xiao Zheng said that he wanted to go back to An County and left first. Minister Liu and Mayor Xiao did not try to persuade him to stay. The three of them took another sip of wine together, Xiao Zheng set off, and Li Haiyan saw Xiao off.
Zheng went to the door and told Xiao Zhong: "Driving at night, don't drive too fast, be careful not to overtake the boat."
Xiao Zhong agreed.
That night, Xiao Jingyu chatted with Minister Liu for more than half an hour. Xiao Jingyu said that she knew that as the deputy mayor, she was not a member of the Standing Committee and had no power to recommend cadres. However, because she worked in An County before, she found that several cadres really
For example, Jin Jianqiang is now the deputy secretary and is temporarily in charge of the work of the county government. Although there is no clear intention to correct the organization, he still works hard and fulfills his duties, which reflects a high sense of the overall situation.
Such cadres hope that Minister Liu can also say a few kind words to the province.
In addition, Xiao Jingyu also recommended Guan Wenwei, Xu Changyun and others. Minister Liu said that although Xiao Jingyu is not a member of the Standing Committee, he can recommend outstanding cadres to the organization so candidly, which is also an act of being responsible for the cadres and the cause. Don't
There are too many concerns.
Minister Liu also said that he was already paying attention to Jin Jianqiang, Guan Wenwei, Xu Changyun and other cadres, and would recommend them whenever there was an opportunity. Xiao Jingyu expressed his gratitude.
After the discussion was over, about two hours later, Minister Liu went back.
Although Minister Liu said he would make recommendations when he has the opportunity, in fact, in two days, he will report the cadre plan to the Municipal Party Committee Secretary Tan Zhen. On Saturday, the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee will convene to recruit a group of cadres.
Originally, this group of cadres was not ready to let go of Wen Wei and Xu Changyun, but after talking with Xiao Jingyu today, Minister Liu added these two names to the plan form that evening.
The next day, Xiao Zheng convened relevant personnel to coordinate the actual location of "Hidden Dragon, Sword Rain". According to the last agreement, the An County Government and the "Hidden Dragon, Sword Rain" project team will hold a signing ceremony. At that time, the Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee,
The Municipal Party Committee Propaganda Minister will all participate in this event.
