When the personnel director arrived, I said to him directly: "Please tell me in detail what happened last night."
He nodded. I saw his hand touch his trouser pocket, but then he took it out hesitantly. I looked at him and smiled, "You want to smoke, right? It's okay, you've done it."
He thanked me hurriedly, then took out a cigarette and lit it. I noticed that he also smoked Soft China.
Of course, I won't say much about such a thing, even though I know clearly that the cigarettes he smoked could not have been bought with his own money.
Many leading cadres have a hobby of smoking, and I believe they rarely buy cigarettes themselves in their lives. The cigarettes they smoke are very expensive. Cigarettes have become a part of the leaders' face, like the brands of their watches, clothes and shoes.
The cigarettes smoked by leaders mainly come from gifts from others, followed by purchases with public funds. I always turn a blind eye to such things, because it is not a serious matter for others to give cigarettes and alcohol to leaders.
problem, although there is probably a power factor involved.
But I still have the same idea: there are no fish in clear ponds, and some things don’t need to be taken so seriously. People who are leaders must communicate with the outside world. While they maintain their own face, they also represent the face of a place and a unit.
Although I don’t smoke, and I hate people who smoke in front of me. But I know that once a person gets addicted to smoking, it is difficult to quit. Some people quit smoking for as long as a year, but in the end they still smoke again.
So there is a saying for smokers: If you have quit smoking for less than five years, you cannot be called quitting smoking at all.
So I understand them and know that smokers will have a short-circuit in their thinking if they don't smoke when they want to smoke.
He lit a cigarette and then began to tell me in detail what happened last night.
The Personnel Bureau is under the jurisdiction of the Organization Department. Of course, it is a department directly under the government. Thinking of this relationship, the Personnel Bureau often invites Minister Lei to dinner. The main reason for this is because Minister Lei likes to drink.
In fact, it was not the Personnel Bureau who was actually treating the guests that day. The Director of the Personnel Bureau just came forward to invite Minister Lei. The person who was really treating the guests was the deputy director of another unit. He thought that the relationship between the Personnel Director and Minister Lei was already relatively familiar, so he entrusted the invitation.
He asked for his help in inviting the formidable new organizational minister.
The rumors about Minister Lei have now been spread by the wife of the deputy director of the Commerce Bureau, so many people do not dare to take the liberty to invite this leader.
When we were at the table, the HR Director introduced the Deputy Director to Director Lei. However, Director Lei did not say to the Deputy Director this time, "You always behave badly," but he didn't say much either.
, and his attitude was very cold. It was obvious that he was somewhat dissatisfied with the approach of the Director of the Personnel Bureau.
Such an atmosphere made the scene seem a bit embarrassing. However, since the Director of the Personnel Bureau was presiding over the reception, and it was not the first time that he and Minister Lei drank together, he knew that this leader was a good drinker.
She would immediately change her attitude after just a few glasses of wine. So at the beginning of the wine party, the personnel director kept saying a lot of flattery to Minister Lei.
Sure enough, Minister Lei's brows slowly opened, and a smile began to appear on his face. After drinking a few glasses of wine amidst everyone's flattery, Minister Lei began to talk more.
Then he talked about the city-wide investigation of the cadre situation. He said: "We are conducting a thorough investigation of the city's cadres, and outstanding cadres will be reused at any time."
Then someone said: "Whoever is the best will be reused. Isn't this what your Minister Lei said?"
After hearing this, Minister Lei became even more happy, and the atmosphere at the wine table became lively.
For a person with an inflated self, he especially likes and needs such an atmosphere. It must be a great feeling to be supported by everyone.
When the atmosphere at the wine table had just become lively, Chairman Ma's brother came. The lively atmosphere was suddenly interrupted. Minister Lei immediately became unhappy and lost his temper. He didn't pay attention at all.
Chairman Ma's younger brother, and he is very disdainful of him.
Later, Chairman Ma came. In fact, when Chairman Ma came in for the first time, Minister Lei was very polite and asked the personnel director next to him to give up his seat and ask Chairman Ma to sit down. However, Chairman Ma did not sit down, and just stood there talking to him.
Minister Lei drank.
Then Chairman Ma said to Minister Lei: "The person who came to toast you just now is my brother, my brother. If he offended you with his words, please forgive me. But I know that my brother is very sensible. Generally speaking,
He wouldn't say anything inappropriate under the circumstances. Just now he told me that he wanted to toast you, and he said that he admires you very much."
Minister Lei's expression suddenly changed, but he didn't say much. After Chairman Ma left, Minister Lei said: "This person is your local bully in Shangjiang City. His younger brother did what he did with his power."
It’s not like I don’t know about bad things.”
After hearing what he said, no one dared to say anything, but they all laughed with him.
Not long after, Chairman Ma came in again. After he came in, he asked Minister Lei directly: "Minister Lei, when I went out just now, I seemed to hear you saying that I was a local bully? And that my brother had done many bad things?
I would like to ask you, do you have any evidence for what you say?"
Minister Lei suddenly became embarrassed, but he still said immediately: "You know some things best, and you don't need me to say anything more."
At that time, Chairman Ma said that to Minister Lei immediately after he entered. Perhaps Minister Lei was a little embarrassed and angry, so he did not stand up. So Chairman Ma said the following words. He said: "Minister Lei, my rank is
He seems to be taller than you, right? I took the initiative to propose a toast to you, so you have to stand up, right?"
Minister Lei immediately said coldly: "I didn't ask you to come over and toast me. I drank too much and couldn't stand up."
At this time, several people suddenly rushed in from outside. They had wine bottles in their hands, and then they rushed over and smashed Minister Lei on the head. Fortunately, Minister Lei reacted quickly and ran away after blocking it with his hand.
Lost.
The situation described by the Personnel Director was somewhat different from what Secretary Qian told me. The situation Secretary Qian told me seemed to be favorable to Chairman Ma, but the words of the Personnel Director clearly told me that Chairman Ma had done more wrong.
.
Logically speaking, as a local, the Personnel Director seems to be more biased towards Chairman Ma. I immediately realized that he might have some conflicts with Chairman Ma, which is only logical. But I also have to admit that he
His words seemed more credible because he also talked about some of the problems that Minister Lei had.
Maybe he has realized that Chairman Ma and Minister Lei will be dealt with after this incident, so he told me the truth in such an impartial manner, because he is facing me now, and I specifically told him
Called here, he should have thought about the possible consequences of every word he said. As a person who has been in official circles for many years, he has to face this reality. Maybe this is also the reason why he wanted to smoke earlier:
There is a kind of tension and contradiction in his heart.
I am not going to look for Chairman Ma's brother anymore, because I suddenly feel that it is no longer necessary and there is not much meaning. This matter is actually very simple. In the final analysis, there is a problem between Chairman Ma and Minister Lei. In short, it is just two people.
Because of the conflict, the people brought by Chairman Ma almost beat up the director of the Municipal Party Committee's Organization Department, and Minister Lei was too shameless. Not only what happened last night, he had many problems with his working methods after arriving in Shangjiang City.
problems, as well as his habit of drinking.
Now, I have a preliminary impression of this matter, which is actually enough. What is needed next is Secretary Rong’s opinion on how to handle this matter after he returns from the province. Of course, Chairman Ma and Minister Lei
They all belong to provincial cadres, and the final decision on how to deal with them must be made by the province. (To be continued)
