No one can know and feel what I felt at this moment. At this moment, my heart was completely and completely confused. The moment I found the familiar figure not far in front of me, I suddenly felt like
Being pressed down by an invisible boulder, my heart began to beat and my mind went blank.
But the driver next to me and Secretary Qian’s secretary didn’t notice anything unusual about me. Maybe it’s because I’ve already cultivated to the point where my heart is turbulent but on the outside I remain calm.
After entering the hall, I immediately said to Secretary Qian's secretary: "Just wait for me. I'll go there for my convenience."
Immediately, I quickly went to the restroom in the restaurant lobby.
After I entered, I found that there was no one inside, so I immediately took out my cell phone and called Zhu Dan.
She answered the call quickly. At this moment, my heartbeat suddenly accelerated again, but I tried my best to control myself and asked her in a relaxed tone: "Xiao Dan, what are you doing?
"
She smiled and said, "You missed me? Where are you?"
I immediately said: "I was having dinner at a restaurant here at Jiangnan University, with the president of Jiangnan University. What about you?"
She said: "I just went home and was thinking about what to eat for dinner."
Only then did I suddenly notice the sound of a TV coming from the phone. Combined with what she had just said, I immediately understood that I had just seen the wrong person. My heart suddenly became completely relaxed and I felt stressed.
The stone in my heart suddenly disappeared. At this time, my whole person suddenly became relaxed and happy, and then I said to her softly: "You can eat whatever you want first. I will come back later and accompany you."
Let’s have a late night snack, okay?”
She said dissatisfiedly: "You must be drunk again."
I thought to myself: This is very possible. On the one hand, I am going to have a drink with the president of Jiangnan University tonight. I also graduated from a university, and the president is also my senior. On the other hand, my mood has suddenly changed.
The tense state suddenly became relaxed and happy, which made me suddenly have a desire to drink and need to vent. I said: "Well, I will stay with you all day tomorrow. I will go back tonight
Home."
She said to me in a sweet voice: "No. You come tonight. You have to accompany me tomorrow. I will go to the supermarket to buy some things and come back, then I will take a shower and wait for you."
Her words suddenly excited my heart, and I agreed repeatedly. At this moment, I immediately understood: I already have a deep emotion for her in my heart.
In addition, there is still a slight uneasiness in my heart, because I always feel that what I just saw as the wrong person represents a bad premonition.
After I walked out of the bathroom, I found Secretary Qian's secretary and my driver waiting for me there. I nodded to them, "Let's go."
No one other than myself will know about the little episode just now, and I still look calm at this moment.
After arriving at the private room upstairs, Secretary Qian's secretary opened the door for me, and then said inside, "Mayor Feng is here."
Secretary Qian came to me quickly and hugged me exaggeratedly, "Mayor Feng, you are finally here."
I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart: His exaggeration is actually a sign of immaturity. He has not yet cultivated to the point where his emotions and anger are invisible. This can also be said to be childish and frivolous. But I understand him very well.
, he was showing his old boss the extent of his relationship with me. I think it was the same when I just came out of college.
When I first came in, I noticed that there were already a lot of people sitting in this private room, about seven or eight. I think one of the very elegant elders should be the president of Jiangnan University.
I have seen his photo when I was recruiting students in the province, but I have never met him in person.
Immediately, Secretary Qian introduced all the people he invited to me one by one. Except for the president, the others were all directors or department heads of Jiangnan University. I can imagine it, and I can also do it now.
It can be seen that these people should all be friends of Secretary Qian when he was at Jiangnan University.
It seems that Secretary Qian's banquet today has another meaning: returning home in glory.
During dinner in the evening, the principal asked me several questions: how to transform from professional and technical staff to administrative staff; the difference between university work and local work; how to adapt to local work as soon as possible; how to deal with the relationship between administrative work and professional development now.
I felt that the principal was an academic leader and was very unfamiliar with local work, so his questions had a strong academic nature. I answered him one by one.
After hearing this, he nodded and said: "The Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee requires our universities to send more talents to the local areas. Now it seems that it is not easy for the cadres of our universities to adapt to local work. Xiaoqian, in the future you have to ask your Feng
The mayor is studying."
Secretary Qian smiled and said, "I've been learning from him."
I smiled and said, "He and I learn from each other. Secretary Qian does a very good job in our Shangjiang City, and everyone speaks highly of him."
Although Secretary Qian and I are both members of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, I am a full-time official after all, so it is okay for me to evaluate him like this. In addition, it is also necessary for me to evaluate him like this, which will make him stand out in front of the leaders of his alma mater and friends.
Very face-saving.
The principal just smiled and said nothing. I felt that maybe he also saw the instability problem in Secretary Qian. In fact, Secretary Qian was relatively stable when he went to Shangjiang, and his speech and behavior were pretty good.
It's quite decent, but he seemed a little excited and frivolous today in front of his old boss and old friends. This is easy to understand. After all, he went from assistant to the principal to deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, which is a big leap, and his heart is swelling.
Therefore, it is normal for him to appear. After all, he is different from me, because I had several experiences that he did not have before I came to Shangjiang City, so I have developed the composure and caution I have now.
Because there were so many people, and because everyone was from college, and Secretary Qian still had old friendships with them, everyone quickly became enthusiastic, and the result of this enthusiasm was that the speed and amount of drinking increased.
.
Of course I drank a lot. There are two reasons for this. One is that I like this kind of atmosphere, and the other is that I have to give Secretary Qian face. At the wine table, I respectfully toasted the principal several times and even returned the favor.
Everyone here.
But I still controlled the amount of alcohol I drank. Later I told the principal: "The drinking here is so heavy that I feel like my liver can't bear it. I envy Secretary Qian very much. He doesn't drink much. He's really lucky."
The principal nodded and said: "Mayor Feng, you are right. Your health is more important than anything else. Especially you young people, you should pay more attention."
His words were equivalent to an imperial edict here, so they immediately played a role in protecting me.
During the meal, the principal told me that he didn’t know much about local work conditions, and he was also worried that university cadres would not adapt when they went to the local areas, so he wanted to learn some relevant things from me today.
After I answered many of his questions, he said, it seems that exchanges like this are very necessary. The circle of colleges and universities is too narrow. Nowadays, colleges and universities are developing rapidly, and many of our cadres cannot adapt to the current speed of development.
, including myself.
I smiled and said, you are too humble. I had a lot of contact with your school when I was recruiting students in the province, and I know that your school has developed rapidly in recent years. Both scientific research and school construction have made great progress.
.This is of course inseparable from your ideas and specific work.
He shook his head and said, in fact, we can do better, but I do have big flaws in my knowledge in this area. Therefore, I think the idea of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee is right. As a university, we should send out more
People go to local areas for training, and at the same time, we may be willing to introduce some leaders with local work experience to work in colleges and universities.
I immediately felt that this was an issue worthy of discussion. So I asked him, colleges and universities are engaged in academics and should have a pure academic atmosphere. Local cadres are often eager for quick success and quick gains, and pay too much attention to economic development issues. In this case
It will conflict with the purpose of the development of universities. Nowadays, many people are criticizing the problems of bureaucracy and academic corruption in universities. Wouldn't this aggravate the situation? (To be continued)
