Chapter 18 Chapter Eighteen

When Liu Wangming was tossing the plenary meeting of the municipal government, Li Shusheng was in Beijing to attend an academic annual meeting of the economics session.He loves his major, so he takes advantage of his busy schedule to take advantage of weekends to listen to some lectures by experts in the field of economics, meet old classmates, learn about macroeconomic trends, and receive some new information.Liu Wangming was in the government plenary meeting and the press conference. Someone gave him a detailed report, and he felt a little heavy after hearing it.The change of term is imminent. Liu Wangming used the plenary meeting of the government to win over a group of veteran cadres, build momentum in the press, put money on his face, and include Xinyang's development and changes in recent years in his performance record. Viewpoint: The development of Xinyang is the result of the government's leadership, and the government's achievements lie in having an effective mayor.He left the municipal committee aside, and canceled the hard work of all the comrades in the municipal committee. There was a general feeling that "the east is red, the sun is rising, and Xinyang has a Liu Wangming". Li Shusheng was very angry and funny.You, Liu Wangming, owe it to yourself to be greedy, so you are not afraid of bursting your stomach?Four sets of teams, more than 30 department-level cadres, none of them are doing anything, and you, Liu Wangming, are the only ones who are capable?The city's cadres at all levels and organizations at all levels are useless, and you, Liu Wangming, are the savior?In his opinion, what Liu Wangming did was simply unimaginable.People with a little bit of literacy should be cautious in such a sensitive period, and it is inevitable that the melon fields will be under the plums.He was fine, shirtless.In this case, Li Shusheng cannot be too "a modest gentleman".He felt that Liu Wangming's tricks were very childish and would eventually be self-defeating.It is tantamount to pushing yourself to the opposite of the majority of cadres, and it is tantamount to creating gravediggers for yourself.But no matter what, he wants to organize a counterattack. He wants to take off the coat that Liu Wangming stole, which is shining with the halo of his political achievements, and he wants to do it in a larger and more influential scene, so that more people can understand that Liu Wangming is shameless and boring. .

Li Shusheng lost his parents when he was a child. When a ferry sank, his parents left him at the age of six. His widowed aunt adopted him and brought him up.The family is in decline, and the power is weak. No matter it is spring, summer, autumn or winter, my aunt often closes the door after dark. She is cautious in her words and deeds, humble and retreat, and stay away from right and wrong.She protects Li Shusheng like an old hen and treats her as her own.She often warns Li Shusheng that you must not have the intention to harm others, but you must not have the intention to guard against others.You are the only seedling of the Li family, and you have to be more considerate in your dealings with others, so that you can fight for the Li family.Perhaps because of the influence of his family, Li Shusheng behaved in a low-key and introverted manner, often on the defensive.Now that Liu Wangming has pushed him into a corner, if he doesn't show his arrogance, it will be difficult to explain to the comrades of the city's fourth team, and it will inevitably hit the righteousness of the society.After returning to Xinyang from Beijing, he first talked with Wei Daoqing and Huang Shihuai to understand the situation.Then report to several standing committee members of the municipal party committee, and learn their views on government work by the way.After mastering the numbers of the members of the team, he felt that he should attack Liu Wangming and give him a beating.Proceed to organize the launching ceremony of "10,000" cadres from cities, counties and townships entering the farm.

Li Shusheng came to the steps of the Municipal Party Committee building to the beat of "The Great Motherland", and the time was precisely 8:23.His appearance quickly gathered the leaders of the four sets of teams in the foyer of the Municipal Party Committee in twos and threes, and took their positions, standing behind Li Shusheng on the left and right. Going up to the square in front of the municipal party committee compound today, the balloons are thin and open to public opinion, and the crowds are crowded and beaming.Dressed in festive costumes, more than a dozen hydrogen balloons floated in the center and four corners of the square, and many inspiring slogans were hung on the streamers: "Attention to agriculture, attention to rural areas, and concern for farmers." The focus of a well-off society should be placed in the countryside!", "Enter thousands of families, know the situation of thousands of families, and solve the difficulties of thousands of families." On the top of the municipal government building, there are groups of three, with twelve large speakers strung together. An exciting march was playing, penetrating every corner of half the city of Xinyang.Down the speaker line is a live broadcast vehicle with many antennas and red letters on a white background. The staff are busy up and down.On the granite steps of the Municipal Party Committee Building, which serves as the rostrum, various types of cameras are erected, facing the positions with many microphones from different angles.On the east and west sides of the square, there are twelve 40-seat buses lined up on each side. The bodies of the buses are polished and polished, and big red flowers tied with red silk are hung on the front of the cars.The square was divided into 38 squares, densely packed by cadres from 38 municipal units going to the countryside, and the crowds were surging.A square team holds a banner: Xinyang "10,000" cadres going to the countryside work group X group.The "top leaders" of each unit will be the standard bearers. Members of the unit's leadership team and all cadres, regardless of whether they go to the countryside to work, must participate in today's mobilization meeting.One is to build momentum, and the other is to see off the cadres going to the countryside.Therefore, nearly 2,000 people stood in the entire square.In addition, fourteen counties and urban areas in the city have set up branch venues, and the city's TV station broadcast live. More than 10,000 people participated in today's mobilization meeting, which is a veritable "meeting of ten thousand people".

"Please be quiet, everyone, the meeting will start soon." At exactly 8:30, Liu Maosheng, the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, knocked on the microphone, and according to Li Shusheng's arrangement, he would preside over the meeting today.Li Shusheng gave a speech, then the deputy head of the going-to-the-country work group and the minister of agriculture and industry made speeches on behalf of all the cadres who went to the countryside. Finally, on behalf of the municipal party committee, Li Shusheng presented the flag to Peng Changqing, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee and head of the go-to-the-country work group, and Peng Changqing announced the departure of the go-to-the-country work group .

"Play the Internationale." This arrangement was carefully considered by Li Shusheng, who completely excluded Liu Wangming.Moreover, the handling of this matter completely violated Li Shusheng's usual practice of handling problems. He dictated it completely, and the secretary general of the municipal party committee verbally notified the relevant deputy secretaries. Liu Wangming only knew about this arrangement when he arrived at the venue.I feel very uncomfortable. In such a sensitive period, such a good opportunity to show myself was marginalized by Li Shusheng and excluded from the agenda.He is fully aware of his intention, which is to discredit his previous media limelight.But Li Shusheng's reasons for getting it on the table were crowned with embarrassment.

"Old Liu, I think today's meeting will be held as it is," Li Shusheng asked for his opinion in front of several municipal party committee secretaries when he entered the meeting place. "Let Comrade Maosheng preside over the cadres. I will say a few words on behalf of the municipal party committee, and then present the flag to Peng Changqing, because it is more appropriate for him to announce 'departure' when going to the countryside." What else can be said, in front of several of them, temporarily adjusting which division of labor will cause displeasure to the person concerned, not to mention the opportunity to show his face in front of the whole city, it is not the same as digging his ancestral grave.Therefore, Liu Wangming had no choice but to nod in agreement.

"Next, I invite Comrade Li Shusheng, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, to give a mobilization report." Liu Maosheng's voice was transmitted through twelve tweeters and echoed over the square. Li Shusheng's eyes calmly scanned the dark and shiny eyeballs of the whole audience, pressed the slightly higher microphone in front of him, and spoke word by word, in non-standard Mandarin, because he was unhurried and slow The ups and downs, every detail, quickly caught the hearts of the audience, and there was silence below. "The development of Xinyang has entered a new period. On the one hand, it is necessary to promote industrialization and urbanization, which is the propeller of the city's economic and social development. On the other hand, it is necessary to make overall plans for the development of the city's rural areas, which is the stability of the city's economic and social development. 76% of the city’s population is in rural areas, the development of agriculture, the prosperity of the countryside, and the lives of farmers are always high on the agenda of the municipal party committee.”

Li Shusheng changed the subject, and raised his right hand out from his left chest, "The people here today are all cadres of municipal government agencies, and everyone can get a monthly salary from the finance. Although it is not rich, but after all, life is safe, filial piety and support for the elderly Children, I still have some savings. But I believe that all of you have parents, brothers and sisters who are still in the countryside, and their lives are still tight. There are still quite a few of them who have to calculate the amount of food stored at home. In order to save oil and salt money, we dragged our sick bodies to work in the fields, endured the pain of being separated from each other, and left our hometown to go to work. We are lucky, we have obtained various opportunities and left for various reasons Like you, I have left their life. But let us not forget, haven’t we just left them? Are we unfamiliar with this kind of life? Can we turn a blind eye to their situation? If so, can our conscience be at peace?"

When Li Shusheng spoke up to this point, his throat was a little blocked, and the words that came out of his throat were not as fluent as when he started.He felt that the audience was extremely solemn, and the emotions of the two thousand people were in his hands, completely under his emotional control. "'Old and my old and their old, young and my young and their young.''Ya Zhai night listening to Xiao Xiaozhu, suspected to be the voice of the people's suffering.' Officials with conscience in feudal society can sit in front of the people's suffering. Don't worry, if we communists can't do this, don't we feel ashamed? First of all, we consider our own promotion, our own personal gains and losses, our family, friends, and small circles. We even don't hesitate to do it Fighting openly and secretly, plotting against each other, to the point of being shameless. I think it must be a kind of soul purification for such people to go to the countryside and see the peasants.”

"To build a well-off society in an all-round way, we must speed up the development of agriculture and increase farmers' income. Without the well-off in the countryside, there will be no well-off in Xinyang. What does the well-off in the countryside depend on? At the beginning of the meeting, everyone listened to "The Internationale". A Communist Common sense that should be understood: There has never been a savior, and we do not rely on gods and emperors, but on ourselves. The people create history, and they are the ABC of the Communist Party. What does Xinyang’s rural well-off depend on? What does Xinyang’s economic and social development depend on? ?”

Every time Li Shusheng asked a question, he paused for a long time.Then, like a storm, like a flash flood, like a roaring lion, the people present only felt as if a thunderstorm rolled across the sky: "I can't rely on Li Shusheng alone, and I can't rely on Liu Wangming alone," Li Shusheng deliberately turned his eyes to Liu Wangming's face made Liu Wangming feel a little aggressive, a little caught off guard, and even felt a little cold on his back. "It's not enough to rely on the 30-odd hands of the four teams in our city. It depends on the cadres at all levels in the city who are here today, and the more than six million people in the city." "The people rely on us to organize. This is the responsibility of those of us who hold the people's salaries. This time, the municipal party committee organized '10,000' cadres to go to the countryside, live in villages, enter households, enter thousands of families, solve the difficulties of thousands of families, and publicize the party to the peasants. The spirit of the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, solve the outstanding difficulties of farmers, and work with them to find a way to get rich." Li Shusheng also put forward some strict requirements for the cadres sent to the countryside, and proposed that the organization department should follow up and inspect the cadres sent down this time, and use him as an important basis for the promotion of cadres. Anyone with a discerning eye can see Li Shusheng's hard work in the planning of this "ten thousand" cadres going to the countryside mobilization meeting.Of course the goal was towards Liu Wangming, especially his speech at the mobilization meeting was a lyrical prose.Li Shusheng used no manuscripts, full of passion, laughing and cursing, cadenced and ups and downs, all in one go, expressing his high attention and emotion to rural farmers' agriculture.Naturally, such a complex will resonate strongly among the people of the city.More importantly, he was in stark contrast to Liu Wangming's speech at the municipal government plenary meeting a few days ago. Li Shusheng's words and sentences were like slapping Liu Wangming in front of the people of the city.The people who participated in the meeting may not be completely clear, but the heads of the municipal party committee and the municipal government are all "dumb eating glutinous rice balls and know what they are". unspeakable. To say that Zhou Jianming, who was standing behind Li Shusheng, felt the most joyful. He fully understood Li Shusheng's arrangement for this meeting, and he also understood all the words at the mobilization meeting just now.He felt extremely excited, dripping with joy.Li Shusheng's words were like a whip, and the whip beat Liu Wangming's dirty soul with blood.Didn't Liu Wangming want to publicize his political achievements?Li Shusheng told the city's cadres: it is common sense that leading cadres should understand that the people create history; No, relying on Li Shusheng will not work, and relying on Liu Wangming will not work either; Didn’t Liu Wangming want to show his unique position in front of the people of the city, but Li Shusheng is in such a meeting, let you rest and tell all walks of life that Xinyang does not have Liu Wangming It's perfectly fine. Of course, there was something that Zhou Jianming didn't expect, that was to organize such an event. Li Shusheng had asked Lin Songtao, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, for instructions in advance, and he was highly praised by Secretary Lin, catering to the wishes of the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, who has a deep agricultural complex.For Li Shusheng, the harvest is multi-faceted. In addition to adding points to the impression of Secretary Lin, he transferred the energy of the city's cadres to the countryside, and to the development of the countryside and the city's economy. Focus on discussing the reelection of the municipal party committee.The more important thing is to take advantage of this opportunity to "fix" Liu Wangming, let him know a little bit about the sky and the earth, and refrain from some boring behaviors. However, Liu Wangming is Liu Wangming, will he follow the path envisaged by Li Shusheng?
