Du Hongbo was full of confidence in this debate. He believed that in this short day, with Liu Fei's base in Haiming City, he would not be able to find so many experts, scholars or professors to cheer him on. And Liu Fei has no experience in governing in Yanjing City, so the chances of Liu Fei being used by the experts and scholars in Yanjing City are very small. Even if he can barely recruit a few, it is not as good as having already gathered momentum here. The power of professional scholars ready to be unleashed,
And while Du Hongbo was actively contacting experts and scholars to cheer for his debate, he also called many experts and scholars in Yanjing City and Haiming City to ask them to pay close attention to the experts and scholars around them who intended to go to Haiming City. Participating in this debate, in order to grasp the experts and scholars who helped Liu Fei as early as possible, and make targeted arrangements in advance. After Du Hongbo made all arrangements, he thought he had a chance to win.
However, what Du Hongbo did not expect was that in the next day and night, he did not receive any information that Liu Fei had found experts and scholars. He still did not receive any information until half an hour before the afternoon debate. Du Hongbo felt very puzzled by this situation. He absolutely did not believe that Liu Fei would not ask for help. You know, he had hired ten people just from experts and scholars. Even if Liu Fei was not prepared, he would ask for help. There is definitely no problem for three or four people to help out, but he couldn't collect the relevant information.
At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the conference room of the Triumph Hotel was filled with flowers and colorful flags. A red banner was hung in the conference room: Welcome the leaders of the municipal party committee to attend this seminar. In a corner of the conference room, reporters from the municipal TV station had already set up Cameras and other equipment are ready to ensure coverage of this seminar from the best angles and conditions.
Since this seminar is in the form of a debate, according to Du Hongbo's request, the conference team placed 15 seats and tables on the east and west sides of the conference room, and all seat pairs were in a tit-for-tat state.
On the west side of the conference room, all the experts and scholars, with Xiao Jianhui, Du Hongbo, and Luo Tianqiang as the core, lined up on both sides, pointing directly to the east.
It was already 3:05, and Liu Fei and his support team still did not show up. Du Hongbo couldn't help but frown. You must know that the agreed time officially started at 3:10. According to general rules, both parties should arrive ten minutes in advance. I was ready in minutes, but no one from Liu Fei's side showed up.
Xiao Jianhui frowned and looked at Du Hongbo and said, "Old Du, please make it clear to Liu Fei that you have no time. Could it be that Liu Fei forgot about today's seminar because he was busy?"
Du Hongbo waved his hand quickly and said: "How could I forget? The time was agreed upon by both of us, and he proposed it. Even the address was proposed by him. He shouldn't have forgotten it. Otherwise, I Give him a call now to give him a heads up."
Xiao Jianhui nodded with an ugly expression,
Du Hongbo picked up his cell phone and just dialed out, he heard a cell phone ringtone coming from the entrance of the conference room. At the same time, as soon as the door opened, Liu Fei walked into the conference room calmly with a smile on his face. As I walked inside, I took out my phone,
Seeing Liu Fei walking in, Xiao Jianhui and Du Hongbo both let out a long breath. They were most worried that Liu Fei would break the appointment and play tricks on them, which would make them embarrassed and lose their fortune.
Liu Fei took out his cell phone and saw that the call was from Du Hongbo. He smiled faintly at Du Hongbo and said, "Secretary-General Du, I'm not late."
Du Hongbo nodded with a wry smile and said, "No, no, Secretary Liu, where is your research team? What are they busy with? Why haven't they come out yet?"
Liu Fei's next words stunned everyone present.
Liu Fei said: "There is no research team, I am the only one, but I have invited a witness, and he will be here soon."
As soon as Liu Fei finished speaking, the door of the conference room opened. Wang Kangdong walked in with a water glass in his hand and a smile on his face. Then he instructed the waiter to move a chair and place it in the middle of the south side, far away from the east side. The distance to the west is completely consistent and impartial. It is obvious that Wang Kangdong seems to have placed himself in the position of a witness.
Regarding Wang Kangdong's sudden appearance, whether it was Xiao Jianhui or Du Hongbo, they all looked surprised. They did not expect that Liu Fei would invite Wang Kangdong, a centrist who had always maintained a neutral position in the Standing Committee, but they were shocked. , but since Wang Kangdong clearly stated the witness’s position, they have nothing to worry about.
At this time, Du Hongbo frowned and said: "Secretary Liu, are you sure you don't have a research team? We have ten experts and professors here. Can you handle it alone?"
Liu Fei smiled faintly and said very calmly and confidently: "No matter how many people there are, one person still needs to speak, right? As long as you don't all speak in a swarm, I think I can still handle it."
Hearing Liu Fei say this, many people in Xiao Jianhui's team of experts and professors immediately showed displeasure on their faces. In their view, Liu Fei came alone to attend this seminar, which was obviously against them. Are you looking down on it? If it comes to official power, they think they are no match for Liu Fei, but when it comes to theoretical research and debate, none of them think Liu Fei is more professional than themselves. You know, they are all experts with their own uniqueness. and professor,
At this time, Yao Wenfeng, a senior theoretical expert at Haiming University of Political Science and Law, curled his lips and said with a hint of disdain: "Secretary Liu, seeing that you attended the meeting alone today with high morale, I really admire you. You do have the courage of a municipal party committee secretary. , but it is difficult for two fists to defeat four people, and a hero cannot stand against a large number of people. Today’s seminar has a clear stance and a clear theme. If you face a team of ten of us by yourself, you will probably lose but not win.”
Liu Fei smiled faintly: "You are Professor Yao Wenfeng, right? As far as I know, you have done in-depth research on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. You have even participated in hundreds of forums to explain your views on the characters in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Since you are so If you understand the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, you should know the story of Zhuge Liang's verbal battle with the Confucian scholars. Although I am not as talented as Zhuge Liang, but as a senior official in charge of tens of millions of people in Haiming City, the more than ten experts and professors opposite you should not have stage fright. Reasons and necessity."
Yao Wenfeng's expression changed after hearing this. He didn't expect Liu Fei to know his name and research field, and he was shocked.
In fact, not only Yao Wenfeng was shocked at this moment, but also Xiao Jianhui, Du Hongbo and others were shocked. None of them expected that Liu Fei actually knew and knew Yao Wenfeng, which surprised them.
However, as a person who is familiar with the Three Kingdoms, Yao Wenfeng naturally has quick thinking and strong eloquence. After being clicked by Liu Fei, he immediately counterattacked: "Secretary Liu, as far as I know, some municipal party committee secretaries, although they are very talented in eloquence, often There is a precedent for Attendees to resign due to improper handling of some incidents. The official property declaration system is a double-edged sword. If it is not operated properly, it is likely to damage the foundation of Haiming City's stability. If this really happens If that happens, I'm afraid it may not be solved by taking the blame and resigning."
I have to say that Yao Wenfeng is indeed very powerful. With an understatement, he forced Liu Fei into a blind corner and directly emphasized the consequences. First, he gave Liu Fei a disincentive.
After listening to what Yao Wenfeng said, Du Hongbo showed a proud look on his face. Yao Wenfeng was indeed one of the three top experts he valued very much. He could push Liu Fei to death with just one sentence.
At this moment, even Wang Kangdong had a look of surprise on his face. He didn't expect that Yao Wenfeng could be so impressive when facing Liu Fei. It was really amazing. Wang Kangdong couldn't help but look at Liu Fei,
However, what no one expected was that at this moment Liu Fei not only did not show any dissatisfaction, nor did he put on the pretense of being the secretary of the municipal party committee to suppress others. He just smiled lightly and said: "Well, what Professor Yao Wenfeng said is true at first glance. It makes a lot of sense, especially what you said about the official property declaration system. It is indeed a double-edged sword. If it is not operated properly, it will indeed hurt people. But if we abandon it because it is a double-edged sword, No need, do we still want to be like the late Qing Dynasty, when the foreign guns and cannons of the Western devils are hitting our doorsteps, we still have to shout about reconciliation and peace, and we still have to shout about seclusion to maintain peace forever, Professor Yao Wenfeng , since you are participating in this seminar, it means that you should understand that the official property declaration system has been implemented in many countries. The United States, Russia, Singapore and other places have long implemented the official property declaration system, and they have all achieved very good results. When they implemented this system, they once said that a double-edged sword is not a double-edged sword. Don’t you know the achievements they have made in implementing this system? Let’s not talk about it far away, let’s just talk about Hong Kong in our country. , Taiwan has also implemented a property declaration and disclosure system for officials. Do you still want to go over and say in their ears that this system is a double-edged sword and is not good for you? Isn’t your statement a waste of time? "
Liu Fei's words were like a loud slap on Yao Wenfeng's face. He never expected that Liu Fei, a cadre who focused on organizational personnel work, would have such an in-depth study of the official property declaration system. Liu Fei's argument was even more powerful. With just a few words, he forced Yao Wenfeng into a corner, preventing him from issuing an effective counterattack.
At this moment, Wang Kangdong was sitting on a chair and drinking tea while secretly thinking: "I have known for a long time that Liu Fei was a famous iron-mouthed man at Peking University during his college days and was extremely talented in eloquence. Now it seems that the rumors are not false. It's just that. Facing a debate team composed of ten senior professors and experts, can Liu Fei really win?"
