Chapter 995: The Inheritance of the Fire of Ideals
Zhu Youming came to Cao Yao for business and met with Fang Zhicheng. Although they didn't meet often, they kept in touch. Only Zhu Youming could get in touch with his classmates at the university. The others were more or less separated from each other due to environmental factors.
Fang Zhicheng gradually drifted away.
Why did ancient kings call themselves solitary? Because as you go up, there will be fewer and fewer people around you. When the day comes when you rule the world, you will have no friends around you. When you look down, you will see that they are all chess pieces.
Zhu Youming was sitting in Fang Zhicheng's office. Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "Why have you gained weight again? How much do you weigh now? I'm afraid it's two hundred pounds?"
Zhu Youming waved his hands and smiled bitterly: "I can't help it. I am socializing all day long. How can I not get fat? But you are still the same as when you graduated. You have maintained your figure so well."
Fang Zhicheng said: "I still envy you. The life of a businessman is rich and colorful. Unlike us officials, others think that we live a carefree and comfortable life every day. However, most officials have a very stressful and fast-paced work every day.
Sometimes meals are not guaranteed.”
Zhu Youming curled his lips and said with a look of disbelief on his face: "I disagree with this. I have also contacted many officials, and most of them are superficial."
Fang Zhicheng retorted: "Aren't those officials corrupted by your sugar-coated bullets?"
Zhu Youming wiped his lips subconsciously and smiled awkwardly: "We can't help it. Who doesn't follow the relationship route when doing business nowadays? It's easier to get things done when you have relationships. How can you have relationships? Personal charm is not enough, there must be communication." Yan Yan
After that, Zhu Youming twirled his thumb and index finger.
Fang Zhicheng was made to laugh and cry by Zhu Youming's deliberate philistine behavior. He knew that he did this deliberately. Zhu Youming's chain of express hotels has developed well in recent years. It was listed on the market a few years ago. In terms of net worth, it is at least several dozen.
billion, and is also quite high on the Hurun Youth Wealth List.
Looking closely, Zhu Youming has changed a lot. When he first entered the society, he was young and innocent, but now there is a cunning businessman in his actions. Of course, Zhu Youming only showed this temperament in front of Fang Zhicheng.
Zhu Youming said: "I came here to negotiate a hotel merger and acquisition this time and found that Caoyao's situation is good. Although it is not as good as those cities in southern Huainan, it has a large population base and is worth exploring."
Fang Zhicheng smiled and said: "You are welcome to invest in Caoyao."
Zhu Youming waved his hand and said with a smile: "I am now taking the route of mergers and acquisitions. This method is faster, but for the government, it is not very attractive."
The channel department of the chain hotel group owned by Zhu Youming will arrange personnel to go deep into the central areas of various cities every day to investigate some target groups who have good status but cannot start hotel business due to poor management.
Fang Zhicheng said: "Although mergers and acquisitions are simple and fast, they also bring a lot of contradictions, involving the issue of unified service standards."
Zhu Youming nodded and said: "So we arranged for the training department to call them for training regularly, so that they can improve their service awareness. If they still cannot meet the standards after a period of running-in, we will consider replacing the management team."
Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "This gets to the point."
The merger and acquisition model mentioned by Zhu Youming is the cruelest business law. The ultimate goal is not to integrate the acquired company into itself, but to completely change the management team.
Fang Zhicheng had already made tea, and Zhu Youming took a sip and said: "A few days ago, someone wanted to ask me to hold a reunion for old classmates. At first I was ready to refuse, but after thinking about it carefully, it's not a bad idea. It has been several years since we graduated."
Fang Zhicheng knew Zhu Youming's true purpose here and smiled: "You don't want me to participate, do you?"
Zhu Youming's round face glowed red and he smiled: "Without you, I wouldn't be able to show my abilities."
Fang Zhicheng glared at Zhu Youming angrily and said, "If I really go, I'm afraid I will only show my face."
Zhu Youming patted Fang Zhicheng on the shoulder and said with a smile: "On the fifth of next month, the party will be held at the Jindu Hotel next to the school. Do you want me to arrange for someone to pick you up?"
Fang Zhicheng smiled and said: "It's not like I don't know that place. I can just go there by myself."
Zhu Youming was in a good mood when he saw that Fang Zhicheng had agreed to his invitation. He sat in the office for a while. It was not until Hua Qingwen knocked on the door and entered the request documents that Zhu Youming left.
Seeing Zhu Youming's changes, Fang Zhicheng seemed to see his own changes. He knew that in the eyes of others, he had quietly changed a lot.
"Is the matter resolved?" Fang Zhicheng handed the approved documents to Hua Qingwen.
Hua Qingwen nodded and smiled bitterly: "I went to the Civil Affairs Bureau yesterday."
Fang Zhicheng sighed and said, "I'll give you a month's holiday to adjust."
"I don't have to!" Hua Qingwen decisively refused, "Let me be busier and maybe lessen the pain."
Fang Zhicheng stared at Hua Qingwen for a long time and said: "That's okay. In addition, there is something I want to ask you about. Next Wednesday, there will be a training class for young cadres at the Provincial Party School. Do you have any ideas to try?
"
Hua Qingwen said in surprise: "This training class for young cadres has a very high standard. There are only more than 30 places in the province, and it is included in the young cadre reserve system of the Organization Department. The Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee has already applied for the list."
Fang Zhicheng smiled and said: "This time Secretary Wen Di and I applied for qualifications. Outside the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department, if you are willing, I will give this quota to you."
Song Wendi is now the deputy secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and the principal of the Provincial Party School. With his strength, it is only a matter of one sentence to coordinate a quota in the Party School training class.
Hua Qingwen's eyes were touched and he said: "Boss, what are you doing..."
Fang Zhicheng said: "Although we have only worked together for a few months, I can see your potential. Because I have worked in the media, my angle of analyzing and solving problems is very admirable. Secretary work, for you,
It's just a springboard. I hope you can use your current position to accumulate more resources and pave the way for other jobs in the future."
Hua Qingwen understood Fang Zhicheng's intentions, which hinted that he would be given important responsibilities in the future, but his mood was also complicated. Although he could not be said to be walking sideways in Cao Yao now, even if an ordinary deputy mayor saw him, he would
He will think that he is weak, but everything is done with the help of Fang Zhicheng's power, but if he really escapes Fang Zhicheng's protection and faces the wind and rain, it may not be so easy and simple.
Hua Qingwen promised in a deep voice: "Boss, thank you for giving me the opportunity. I will definitely not let you down."
Fang Zhicheng stood up, walked to Hua Qingwen, patted his shoulder gently, and said sincerely: "Remember, you are always only responsible for yourself!"
After Hua Qingwen left the office, Fang Zhicheng let out a breath and dialed his mother Su Qing's phone number. We made an appointment to call at this time last night because it involved an important personnel information.
Su Qing smiled in a relaxed tone and said: "Good news, it has been reviewed just now. Song Wendi will be appointed as deputy secretary of the Huainan Provincial Party Committee and acting governor, mainly responsible for the economic work of the entire Huainan government. The meeting went smoother than expected, although there were
A small episode, but basically under control."
Fang Zhicheng became quiet after hearing the news. Just as he had guessed, the final outcome of this game of chess was his own victory. Prime Minister Li Siyuan attended the video conference and named the real estate properties in Huainan, and then Wei Qun took on the corresponding responsibility.
Responsibility, and then Wendi Song took office. This was a pre-planned storyline.
The game between high-level officials is roughly like this. There is no bayonet fight, but every link is meticulous and delicate. Fang Zhicheng watched the change of candidate for Huainan Governor and found it quite rewarding. If he really got to that position, he would also
The problem must be solved in this way.
Fang Zhicheng asked: "Where will Wei Qun go?"
Su Qing said calmly: "The National Development and Reform Commission no longer has a position for him. He has two options. The first is to be transferred to another province, or to make a transition at the Central Party School."
Fang Zhicheng was a little puzzled and asked: "Why can the northern faction give up such an important position so easily?"
Su Qing paused and said: "This is also related to an old leader. Wei Qun is his disciple, and he personally came forward to work with him, but in the end Wei Qun chose to give up."
Fang Zhicheng knew who the old leader was. He was a leader who had created many miracles in China's officialdom. The entire economic structure of China was now shaped in his hands.
Fang Zhicheng sighed: "Why is the old chief willing to do this?"
Su Qing whispered: "Because the old chief is broad-minded, he knows that times have changed, and a fresh economic model must be injected in order for society to develop rapidly."
Fang Zhicheng felt a sudden enlightenment and said: "The country is lucky because we always have some leaders who care about the world and can lead us out of difficulties."
Su Qing smiled and said: "You must become such a person in the future."
Fang Zhicheng was slightly startled and said, "Don't put too much pressure on me."
Just after hanging up the phone on Su Qing, Wendi Song took the initiative to call. Fang Zhicheng smiled and said: "Master, congratulations."
Wendi Song smiled lightly and said: "Thank you, Director Su, for me. If she hadn't been running for me, it wouldn't have been solved so easily."
Fang Zhicheng smiled and asked: "What are you going to do next?"
Song Wendi looked at the chandelier on the ceiling, as if she had passed through the floor, looking at the distant sky, and said slowly: "More power, more responsibility. I just hope that in five years, I can create a good soil for you."
"
Fang Zhicheng was stunned and said: "Master..."
Song Wendi said softly: "Ideals cannot be created by one person. You shoulder the common ideals of many of us, including Secretary Siyuan, Shen Hanchun... If you fail to complete it, you must also help us pass on the fire of our ideals.
