Chapter 10 chapter Ten

Liu Wangming didn't close his eyes all night. On the way back to Xinyang, he squinted in the car for two hours in a daze. When he opened his eyes, Lao Yu had already got off the car and was squatting in front of his house, smoking a cigarette.Seeing Liu Wangming sitting up in the car, he came over and opened the door, muttering to himself, "I want you to sleep a little longer." "what time is it now?" "Twenty past six." "Let's take a break and go to the office at nine o'clock." Liu Wangming knocked on the door of the house, Li Ying wearing that silky pink pajamas floated past his eyes.In an instant, he saw his woman's face glowing, brimming with happiness, not as if she had just woken up.

The windows and doors in the room were tightly closed, airtight, filled with a musty smell, and very stuffy. "You don't turn on the air conditioner on such a hot day?" "I'm alone at home, it's too wasteful to turn on a few air conditioners, so I turn them off in the morning." Li Ying lied, an imperceptible blush flashed across her face.Turning around, he went to turn off the air conditioner switch in the living room, made another cup of tea for Liu Wangming, and placed it on the tea table in front of him. "You haven't slept all night, I'll run water and take a shower and go to the room to sleep?"

He shook his head, "I can't sleep well, I'm going to the office soon." "Then it's good to lie on the sofa for a while." Liu Wangming lay down, Li Ying brought him a pillow from the room, and helped him to cushion it. He looked at the wall clock in the living room, and took the TV remote control. Xinyang TV was broadcasting "Xinyang News". "The following is the report that our reporter just sent back from Lingxi: Yesterday at 19:40, a serious traffic accident occurred in Lingxi County of our city." Liu Wangming sat up from the sofa. "A traffic vehicle full of passengers overturned over the hanging rock at a distance of 17 kilometers from Lingxi County to Qingshui Township, causing heavy casualties. After receiving the report, Li Shusheng, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Mayor Liu Wangming, city and county leaders, and relevant departments Comrades, rushed to the scene immediately and organized rescue. The cause of the accident is under investigation. As of press time, 19 people have died and more than 20 people have been injured."

Then Li Shusheng and others appeared at the scene of the accident, and most of the shots were close-ups of Li Shusheng: Li Shusheng inspected the scene with a serious face, he approached an ancient pine with a large bark scraped off, he approached the wreckage of the crashed car, and he sat in the ward Holding the hand of the wounded to greet them, he was listening to the cries of the family members of the deceased, and he analyzed the cause of the accident together with the comrades of the accident investigation team. A few seconds passed before Liu Wangming, Wang Dongsheng, and Tian Wenge inspected the scene. The longest shot was Liu Wangming speaking at a meeting of middle-level cadres in Lingxi County. There was no dubbing, which made it difficult to connect with the handling of the accident. .

As the cameras passed one by one, Liu Wangming's blackened face was getting longer and longer. The camera is a close-up of Li Shusheng again, and his speech is broadcast: This is a very unfortunate accident, and I feel very sad for the brothers and sisters who died in the accident.What we have to do now is to rescue the wounded at all costs, appease the relatives of the deceased, find out the cause of the accident as soon as possible, and deal with it seriously according to law.Make inferences from one case to another, and do a good job in the implementation of various measures for current safety production, so that the people of the city can rest assured.

There was a "snap" sound, accompanied by the shocking sound of the glass cups on the coffee table, the TV remote control, mobile phones, ashtrays and other sundries jumping up. Li Ying ran out of the kitchen with a blank face, she was making breakfast for Liu Wangming. I saw Liu Wangming was furious, his face was blue, he jumped up from the sofa, his eyes were sparking, and he was staring at the TV. "What's the matter with you?" Liu Wangming ignored her. "It's simply unreasonable." The words were squeezed out from between the teeth one by one. Li Ying realized that her temper was triggered by the TV news, because this was not the first time, so she persuaded him.

"Oh, are you worth being so angry? Isn't it just a few shots for you?" "What do you know! This is too much deception! They don't take me as the mayor seriously. Damn, dogs look down on people! There are times when you look good." After receiving the traffic accident report in Lingxi last night, he didn't delay for a minute, didn't take a minute to rest, covered with stinky sweat and dusty face, inspected the scene, visited the wounded, directed the rescue, and gave instructions to the Lingxi middle-level cadres meeting. Report.Dry mouth and exhausted.After running for more than ten hours, a few seconds passed on Xinyang's TV screen.I am also the mayor of the government, and I can be considered the second in command according to the position in the party.Isn't Li Shusheng the secretary?Rescuing the wounded, dealing with the aftermath, and organizing investigations, which one did I arrange for him to come to the scene?Why should all the things that show his face be recorded in his account.

Li Shusheng controls the Propaganda Department, and the Propaganda Department controls news and public opinion.Public opinion matters too much.Li Shusheng's words "I feel very sad for the brothers and sisters who unfortunately died in the accident" are worth more in the hearts of the citizens than Liu Wangming's hard work overnight. This incident greatly stimulated Liu Wangming. Before the municipal party committee changes, it must not be sloppy in public opinion.The Propaganda Department is in charge of public opinion, but the tools of public opinion belong to the government.Aren't radio, television, newspapers, and the Internet all government departments?No, this hand cannot be soft!

Thinking about it now, I arrived in Lingxi too hastily last night and didn't notify the news unit in time. This is a lesson. He walked to the TV cabinet, grabbed the phone, and dialed Wang Daoguang's cell phone.After pressing a few numbers, he hesitated and put down the receiver.Back to the sofa and sat down.He originally wanted the director of radio and television to come to the house immediately, and he wanted to give him a severe lesson to vent his anger.But if you think about it carefully, it's not right.It's too simple to find a bureau chief to scold, anytime, anywhere.The question is, what social effect do you want to get by scolding the bureau chief?I scolded at home, you know, I know, and Li Ying knows, it's not the effect Liu Wangming wanted.If you want to scold him, you can go there in public and scold him. The scolding makes him feel ashamed, and the scolding is so deep in his heart that he dare not have such a thing happen again.Hey, on the political stage, laughing and scolding have to talk about politics.

You don't know me, Liu Wangming! Ten years is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge.Not reporting from time to time, the day has not arrived.From today's report, Liu Wangming can see the attitude of the radio and television group towards him and Li Shusheng. He wants to curse. And you have to curse once in public.He walked to the phone again and dialed Wang Daoguang's cell phone.The general gave the same combat order: "You tell the director of radio, film and television to come to the office to see me at nine o'clock." Li Ying brought over a bowl of dumplings and put them on the tea table.

Liu Wangming has been in the army for many years and likes to eat dumplings.Li Ying often bought some quick-frozen dumplings from the supermarket and cooked a small bowl for him every morning as breakfast.Sometimes when Liu Wangming was in a meeting, went to the countryside, or got off work late, he would also cook a bowl for him. With a gloomy face, Liu Wangming appeared in the corridor of the office. His hair was puffy, his eyes were surrounded by dark circles, and his footsteps were stomping on the ground. There was a "bang bang" sound in the corridor, and his voice was a bit dull. The secretary carried the bag, the driver Lao Yu followed behind holding a teacup, the correspondent held a bunch of keys and ran to open the door for him, and the office director Wang Daoguang walked last. Next to Liu Wangming's office, there is a reception room, which is specially prepared for those who line up to report to Liu Wangming.At this time, there was already a lot of voices, and the rattan chairs, sofas, wooden benches, and folding chairs were full of people, and those who couldn't find a seat had to stand.Smoking, whispering.Seeing Liu Wangming coming in, everyone stood up together and greeted him in their own way: "Mayor Liu is back", "Mayor Liu has worked hard", "Mayor Liu is good morning".Liu Wangming swept his eyes away, and among the crowd were veteran bureau chiefs, construction bureau chiefs, civil affairs bureau chiefs, directors of the Foreign Publicity Office, the leader of the leading group for the construction of the municipal square, and the mayor of Guanshan Town in the suburbs of the city.Xiang Ling, the deputy director of the Finance Bureau, was wearing a tight-fitting low-cut black sweater and a short white skirt, standing out among a group of men.The corners of Liu Wangming's mouth pulled up reluctantly, which was regarded as a smile, and they shook hands with everyone, and finally held Xiang Ling's small and delicate hand. He secretly exerted a little force, and Xiang Ling gave him a strange look. "Hasn't the Director of Radio, Film and Television notified you?" Liu Wangming couldn't find the leader of the Radio, Film and Television Bureau among the heads, so he turned around and asked Wang Daoguang. "Come on, come on." The director of Radio, Film and Television replied while running in the corridor.As soon as the words fell, a white and quiet face with crystal beads of sweat appeared at the door of the reception room. "You're here!" Liu Wangming turned around, his face suddenly relaxed, and blocked him at the door. "Did you read today's Xinyang morning news? Which of you bureau chiefs here have read this morning's Xinyang news?" Liu Wangming turned his face to everyone, and everyone looked at each other blankly. "Didn't you watch it when you were the director of radio, film and television?" The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense, and everyone felt the seriousness of the problem from Liu Wangming's face. "Mayor, if there is any problem with our work, you can criticize it. I have the habit of exercising in the morning, and usually watch the news of the day at night." "Your work is very good, very good! As the director of radio, film and television, you don't even read Xinyang news at the first time, so you are so cool!" An ugly blush appeared on the fair face of the Director of Radio, Film and Television.But he still looked puzzled. "I want to ask you, I, Liu Wangming, rushed to the scene of the Lingxi traffic accident at 8:20 last night, organized on-site rescue, and directed the handling of the accident. I haven't closed my eyes until now, how do you reporters report to the people of the city? The report is over in seven seconds! It’s not simple, it’s a high-level summary.” "Mayor, before the news was broadcast, the TV station reported it to me. Because when you arrived at the scene, our reporters hadn't arrived yet. Today, the tapes shot by the county TV station were used. The quality is not good, so it can't be used." "Don't make excuses. For more than four minutes of news, you gave me seven seconds of footage." Liu Wangming gritted his teeth and pointed at the director of radio, film and television with his ring finger. "Propaganda reports show love and hate, and you can be regarded as having a clear distinction between love and hate. It shows the position of the municipal party committee and the municipal government in your hearts. Let me tell you: a small report, a TV camera, is irrelevant to me, Liu Wangming, and will not It affects my official career. I represent the city government, and your programming shows your attitude towards the city government. What kind of peace do you have!" "Mayor Liu, there are mistakes in the news reports, you can criticize them however you want. But we don't have any other intentions." Hearing that there was something in Liu Wangming's words, the Director of Radio, Film and Television felt a little too much. It is necessary to make it clear. "You know what you mean best. Don't forget that the Radio, Film and Television Bureau is the municipal government's Radio, Film and Television Bureau. The leaders of the Radio, Film and Television Bureau should understand the basics of current affairs reports, how to arrange the headlines, and how to arrange the pictures that the city leaders appear. You Go back now, give me a good look at today's morning news, and learn about news business." Liu Wangming shook his hand, turned around and wanted to enter his office.Seeing the bureau chiefs in the reception room still standing in a daze, I could see the tension in the atmosphere just now, stretched the expression on my face a little, and nodded to them, "Everyone sit down, there are many things to do today, 'outpatient' But it will take some time, you have to be prepared!"
