Chapter 14 I used a trick for the old comrades

Hou Weidong returned to the office and called the mayor Huang Zidi.Several mayors including Huang Zidi were listening to Governor Zhu Jianguo's speech. Because of the small-scale heart-to-heart talk, Huang Zidi turned his mobile phone to vibrate. When Hou Weidong called, he didn't answer. After sitting in the office for a while, Hou Weidong called Zhu Minsheng directly and reported the strike situation in the silk spinning factory and his opinions on how to deal with it. Zhu Minsheng said: "I was eating in the office restaurant, and you just finished the meeting. If you haven't eaten, hurry up and come over, let's talk while eating." Hou Weidong didn't expect Zhu Minsheng's attitude to be so good, but he felt a little flattered, and he hurried downstairs , walk to the organ restaurant behind the compound.

In the private room of the small restaurant, Zhu Minsheng and Ji Daolin were eating in it. After listening to Hou Weidong's report, Zhu Minsheng explained: "Stability during the Spring Festival is an overriding political task. This is beyond doubt. It is a principled requirement to let the workers have a happy and peaceful Spring Festival. At 3:30 in the afternoon, a meeting was held to deal with the strike. Vice Mayor Yang Senlin will attend the meeting, and Minister Zhongda of the Organization Department will also attend." He then said to Ji Daolin: "Secretary Ji will not attend the afternoon meeting for the time being, but you should pay attention to the silk spinning factory."

With the support of the secretary of the municipal party committee, Hou Weidong was more confident. After eating, he came to the office, thought for a while, and then sent a text message to Huang Zidi, briefly explaining his opinions on the handling of the strike and the meeting held by Zhu Minsheng. SMS report. After sending a text message, he was about to squat on the sofa for a while, but he couldn't help but think of the political situation in Shazhou. The Shazhou government has just undergone a change of term, and it is basically complete, but there are two gaps in the standing committee of the municipal party committee, one is the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, and the other is the secretary general of the municipal party committee.

The two most competitive members of the Standing Committee for the Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee are Hong Ang, Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, and Su Mingjun, Minister of Propaganda, and Hong Ang is the most vocal.After careful analysis for a while, Hou Weidong felt that neither Hong Ang nor Su Mingjun was likely to take up the post of deputy secretary. After thinking for a while, he turned over from the sofa and sat up, thinking: "Don't think about these superstructures now, let's focus on solving the strike at the silk spinning factory."

Hou Weidong remembered the encounter with Yang Bai by chance, and called Yang Liu: "Yang Bai is your cousin, I have something to do with him, you should contact him quickly and ask him to come to my office." Knowing that it was about the strike, Yang Liu hurriedly contacted Yang Bai. "Mayor Hou, I contacted Yang Bai, and he said that he has a lot to report to you in person, but right now, the workers in the silk spinning factory are on strike, and he doesn't want to go to the city hall to avoid trouble, so he wants to make an appointment at another place. " Hou Weidong looked at his watch and said, "Since Yang Bai has scruples, let's change to another place. You ask Yang Bai for his opinion, where is he willing to talk."

After getting in touch with Yang Bai, Hou Weidong hurried downstairs and came to an ordinary tea room in Xicheng District. He went to the tea room before Yang Bai, and he called Jiang Jin in the tea room: "At 3:30 in the afternoon, Secretary Zhu wants to listen to the report. You have to quickly clarify the basic situation of the strike, write a brief report, and prepare a list of symposiums. You must have a symposium with worker representatives this afternoon. In addition, how to raise funds and what appropriate channel to send to Workers, be sure to come up with a plan in the afternoon."

Jiang Jin kept complaining on the phone, and Hou Weidong interrupted: "The Spring Festival is approaching, and extraordinary measures must be taken in extraordinary times. After the Spring Festival, I will not hold you back. Everyone will be responsible for whoever does the work. .” Hou Weidong recalled Wang Yuezhou's indifferent attitude towards him, so he frowned for a while before making the call, and then called Wang Yuezhou of the Economic Committee. He only said that there would be a meeting in the afternoon, intentionally or unintentionally, he didn't say that Zhu Minsheng was coming.

Wang Yuezhou had already received a call from the office. He happened to have an appointment in the afternoon. Thinking of Hou Weidong, a newcomer, he felt slack and made up his mind to be half an hour late. After waiting in the tea room for a while, through the window, I saw Yang Bai wearing glasses and getting off the taxi.After talking with Yang Bai, chief engineer of the silk spinning factory, for more than half an hour, Hou Weidong took five pages of notes.When they parted, he shook hands with Yang Bai, and said: "Thank you for the information you provided, these information are very important, I have written down your phone number, and I will come to you again if there is any situation."

Yang Baidao: "I reported it to Mayor Hou out of love for the factory. I have a request. It is best not to let the factory know what happened today. I don't want to cause trouble." Hou Weidong closed his notebook and said affirmatively, "Don't worry, I will keep it secret." The things Yang Bo talked about were all problems in the business. Now that the Spring Festival is approaching, stability has become the overriding task. Hou Weidong doesn't want to touch this matter for the time being. He returned to the office, his buttocks were still warm, Gao Jian came over and said, "Mayor Hou, I'll take up some of your time and report something to you."

Hou Weidong threw a cigarette to Gao Jian, and said: "There are no outsiders, so don't be so polite, just tell me what you have to say, I will hold a silk spinning factory coordination meeting later, it's difficult to gnaw hard bones when I take office." Gao Jian laughed and said, "You can handle the complexity of the Chengjin lead-zinc mine, let alone a small silk spinning factory." "The silk spinning factory involves more than 6,000 people, which is not a trivial matter. This kind of old state-owned factory involves a lot of people and has a strong policy. If it is not handled well, it will become a powder keg."

After chatting for a while, Gao Jian got to the point and said: "I have been working here since the establishment of the Southern New District. I am very emotional and familiar with all aspects of the Southern New District. I gave a basic introduction to Mayor Hou that day. Recommend the person in charge of the Southern New District." He joked to himself: "The ancients said that one should not shy away from one's relatives, and I recommend excellent talents to the organization, let alone avoid one's relatives." Hou Weidong said: "An important position like the head of the Southern New District must be studied by the Standing Committee. How can I, the deputy mayor, have this power? You understand that." "I'll first report on the situation of a few people in the team. I can make it clear in a few words, so that Mayor Hou can have a general understanding. Deputy director Zhao Decai, this guy rubs vegetable oil on his dick—he's sharp (rame) and slippery, but This person is a good hand in demolition. Deputy director Liang Yajun, the only official graduate student in the team, is placed in the southern new area as an anti-aircraft gun to fight mosquitoes-overqualified. He has worked in the southern new area for several years and has achieved remarkable results. Deputy director Zhao Ya, The only beautiful woman in the team is a good hand in external coordination. Disciplinary inspection team leader Zhao Wenkai, this person can be regarded as a clean official, but he is a bit paranoid and loves to dig into the horns. The Disciplinary Committee has selected a standard discipline inspection cadre." Hou Weidong understood that Gao Jian mainly wanted to recommend Liang Yajun, and the others were just foils. He said, "I understand. If there is an opportunity, I will definitely make a key recommendation to the organization." Talk to Minister Zhongda." Gao Jian knew the organizational procedures and employment system. He came to Hou Weidong with the real intention of making Hou Weidong not object. Hearing Hou Weidong's statement, he knew that he had achieved his goal. Wait for the old team in the Southern New District to invite you to drink, and ask Mayor Hou to give you a face." After Gao Jian left, Hou Weidong secretly said: "Zhu Minsheng attaches great importance to the southern new area. I'm afraid that Gao Jian's intention will come to nothing." He searched for the cadres in the city for a while in his mind, and pondered for a while about Zhu Minsheng's way of employing people. Suddenly, a person appeared in his mind-Zhu Renyi, deputy director of the Organization Department of the Shazhou Municipal Party Committee.Zhu Renyi was originally the deputy director of the Organization Department of the Maoyun Municipal Party Committee. When Su Mingjun became a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and the Minister of Propaganda, he was transferred from Maoyun to Shazhou and served as the Deputy Director of the Organization Department. "According to Zhu Minsheng's character, maybe Zhu Renyi will be transferred to the southern new area." Hou Weidong's judgment was purely a feeling, and it didn't make much sense, but after this idea appeared, the more he thought about it, the more reasonable it became. "If Zhu Renyi really came to be the leader of the Southern New District, it would be a troublesome matter. He has been engaged in party affairs and does not have rich administrative experience. If the work in the Southern New District is not promoted, I, the leader in charge, will not only feel tired, but also face There is no light on the top. Moreover, he is Zhu Minsheng's confidant." After becoming the deputy mayor, the people and things he faced were different from before: from one aspect, most of the county party secretary’s subordinates were department-level cadres, while the deputy mayor directly managed department-level cadres; He said that the secretary of the county party committee has complete employment rights, and the deputy mayor who has not joined the standing committee has been subject to many restrictions in terms of employment. "There's nothing left in the horoscope, so why should I bother myself?" Hou Weidong's thoughts returned to the silk spinning factory in the city. The silk spinning factory has been concreted, but he has never been to the factory area, and he always feels that he is separated from the silk spinning factory by a layer of glass. At 3:20 in the afternoon, Hou Weidong came to the meeting room of the municipal government ahead of time, and Jiang Jin, director of the Development and Planning Committee, was already waiting in the meeting room. "Mayor Hou, this is the list of workers who participated in the symposium. There are four retired factory directors, employee representatives, a workshop director, and two representatives of the factory organization. You can have a trial." Jiang Jin handed it over to participate in the evening List of symposiums. Hou Weidong was very satisfied with Jiangjin's attitude, looked at the list, and said: "I reported this to Secretary Zhu, and he instructed that the Spring Festival must be kept stable, and we will investigate the problem after the Spring Festival. Therefore, the purpose of the discussion tonight is how to let the workers It is the general direction to have a happy and peaceful Spring Festival." Jiang Jin said: "Workers must talk about the two major issues of restructuring and corruption. If there is no clear attitude, it will be difficult to convince the workers." At this time, Ouyang Sheng, the mayor of Dongcheng District, walked into the meeting room. He said as he walked, "Mayor Hou, the emergency plan for Dongcheng District has been prepared. The branch office will control key people and organize backup personnel." At 3:30, Zhu Minsheng entered the conference room on time, followed by Su Mingjun, Director of Propaganda, Yi Zhongda, Director of Organization, and Yang Senlin, Member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and Executive Deputy Mayor. Seeing that Wang Yuezhou did not come on time, Hou Weidong secretly said: "This Wang Yuezhou is directly in charge of me. I personally called and notified him. It's the best of humanity. He still acts like this. He deserves to be taught a lesson." Looking at this situation, Jiang Xidong, the director of the silk spinning factory, was a little nervous, but he was born with a black face, and outsiders could not see his inner world from his expression. Zhu Minsheng said to Executive Deputy Mayor Yang Senlin: "Mayor Yang, today's meeting will be presided over by you." Yang Senlin glanced at the list of leading groups sent by the municipal government office, and said, "Why hasn't Director Wang arrived? Ren Lindu, go and urge me." Ren Lindu quickly stood up from his seat and went to the office to call Wang Yuezhou.Wang Yuezhou didn't take it seriously at the beginning, and said: "I'm negotiating with a foreign company. Please ask Mayor Hou for a leave. I'll be here in half an hour." Ren Lindu said: "Director Wang, Secretary Zhu and other leaders are waiting in the meeting room. Mayor Yang is presiding over the meeting. Come here quickly." Wang Yuezhou originally thought it was Hou Weidong who held the meeting, but when he heard that Zhu Minsheng was coming to the meeting, he was startled and said, "I have ten minutes to come, please explain to Secretary Zhu." When he was in Wuhai, Wang Yuezhou once visited the county, accompanied by the secretary of the county party committee and the county magistrate.Ren Lindu participated in the reception as the director of the county party committee office. In his eyes, Wang Yuezhou was a high-ranking and important person, but at this time, Wang Yuezhou was very polite and careful on the phone. Ren Lindu knew that Wang Yuezhou was showing respect to Zhu Minsheng, the municipal party committee member. He was just pretending to be a tiger, and even though he was pretending to be a tiger, he was still quite comfortable psychologically. Wang Yuezhou hurried down from the corporate office, jumped into the car, and went straight to the municipal committee building, and it was smooth sailing at last.When he arrived at the meeting room building, he stopped at the door, adjusted his breathing, and then pushed open the meeting room door. Zhu Minsheng was speaking, but when he saw Wang Yuezhou pushing the door in, he stopped speaking. Seeing a row of municipal leaders sitting in the conference room, Wang Yuezhou explained embarrassingly: "Secretary Zhu, I'm talking with President Jiang. He's going back to Hong Kong tomorrow, so I have to hurry up and get in touch with him." Yang Senlin used to be Zhu Minsheng's secretary-general, and he knew Zhu Minsheng's thoughts very clearly. He asked, "Director Wang, you are seventeen minutes late. What time is the government meeting notice?" Wang Yuezhou is a veteran, He served at the same time as Bu Haiyun, and had competed with Bu Haiyun for the post of deputy mayor back then. At that time, Yang Senlin had not yet gone to Yiyang to be the county magistrate.Facing Yang Senlin's relentless questioning at this time, he was dissatisfied in his heart, but facing so many leaders, he did not dare to express his dissatisfaction. Yang Senlin said a few words and was about to continue the meeting. Unexpectedly, Zhu Minsheng took his words: "I heard that the city government office issued a meeting notice, and Mayor Hou even called to explain. Why are you late?" Wang Yuezhou didn't dare to talk back to the secretary of the municipal party committee, so he could only bow his head and admit his mistake. Zhu Minsheng's tone was very stern, and he continued: "The notice from the city government office is an order, and it must be carried out unconditionally. You can't say conditions or make excuses. If there is really an urgent business, you should ask for leave from the city government office and get the permission of the leader. Continue to do things, this is the basic discipline. Wang Yuezhou, you are an old comrade, don’t you understand this truth?!” Hou Weidong didn't expect Zhu Minsheng to be so strict, and secretly said: "The matter of Wang Yuezhou's lateness can be big or small. Secretary Zhu's play like this seems to be an excuse." After he became the deputy mayor, his relationship with Huang Zidi remained the same, but with Zhu Minsheng's relationship has inexplicably gotten closer. The united front is the party's three magic weapons. In fact, this magic weapon is applicable to a wide range of fields. There are many successful examples in the battlefield, officialdom, and shopping malls. Hou Weidong readily accepted Zhu Minsheng's "united front". After Hou Weidong took office, Wang Yuezhou thought he had senior qualifications, and his attitude was a bit negligent. Today Hou Weidong used Zhu Minsheng to punish him. Wang Yuezhou sat down blushing. He secretly found Hou Weidong, and thought, "This Hou Weidong is really an asshole. He must know that Zhu Minsheng is coming to the meeting, but he refuses to make it clear on the phone." Jiang Jin, director of the Development and Planning Committee, and Wang Yuezhou have been colleagues for many years. He feels both sad and gloating about what happened to Wang Yuezhou. At the end of the episode, everyone focused their attention on the face of Jiang Xidong, the city's silk spinning factory. Executive deputy mayor Yang Senlin said, "Director Jiang, tell us about the situation." Jiang Xidong's face was dark, and his voice was low and hoarse: "As the main leader of the silk spinning factory, I am responsible for the losses and huge debts of the silk spinning factory over the years. Silk spinning is an old state-owned factory, and its history is almost the same as that of Shazhou City. Due to historical and institutional reasons, heavy burdens, rigid consciousness, unruly system, and extensive management... These reasons have led to today's strike." The leaders of Shazhou City listened quietly to Jiang Xidong's speech, and did not interrupt his slightly lengthy statement.Hou Weidong was not familiar with large state-owned enterprises, and paid special attention to Jiang Xidong's speech. He compared Jiang Xidong's speech with what Yang Bai revealed in his heart. "In recent years, important customers have been eaten away by township and village enterprises and private enterprises with more flexible mechanisms. Product sales have encountered difficulties, and inventory goods have squeezed a large amount of funds, which has made it difficult for workers to cash in their wages and caused workers' dissatisfaction." After Jiang Xidong spoke for about 20 minutes, Yang Senlin finally interrupted his speech, saying: "The problem existing in the factory, please deal with the leading group office to conduct an investigation, form an investigation report and submit it to the municipal government. The focus today is to study how to solve the problem .” Jiang Xidong said: "Please ask the city government to coordinate the bank funds and pay two months' wages first, so that the workers can celebrate the New Year. The factory will do everything possible to sell and strive to return the funds as soon as possible." Yang Senlin didn't comment on Jiang Xidong's statement, turned to Hou Weidong and said, "Mayor Hou, your opinion." Hou Weidong looked through the basic information sent by Jiangjin, and said: "I just read the materials, and the amount of national loans in recent years has been quite a lot. The year before last, the loan was 15 million yuan. Last year, the loan was 40 million yuan. This year, the loan amount is 15 million yuan. It is also 40 million yuan. Now the total foreign debt plus interest of the silk spinning factory has reached 250 million yuan. Before the production and operation problems of the silk spinning factory are not solved, the loan is a bottomless pit." Jiang Xidong's face turned even darker. Hou Weidong changed the subject and said: "Currently conflicts have emerged. For the stability of the city, the strike issue must be resolved first. My opinion is to focus on ideological education with one hand and coordinate funds with the other. The details are as follows..." When Jiang Xidong heard that the city government was coordinating the bank loan, he was overjoyed, but when he heard that the loan was only 3 million yuan, he couldn't help saying, "The 3 million yuan was divided among more than 6,000 workers, and each person is less than 5 million yuan. One hundred dollars." Hou Weidong said: "I have to make it clear that the three million yuan is the New Year's money for the workers. The money will be paid first, and the accounts will be settled later." The plan has to be reported to the municipal party committee and the municipal government.” Yang Senlin was always worried that Hou Weidong would talk too much, and he felt relieved when he heard his last sentence, and said, "Please give instructions to Secretary Zhu." Zhu Minsheng still had a cold face, and said: "State-owned enterprises are generally losing money. This is a problem in the whole province and even the whole country. You can't do things by patting your head. Mayor Weidong should organize relevant professionals to conduct feasibility studies. Report to the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government, regarding the current problems, I agree with Mayor Weidong’s opinion in principle, and ask all functional departments to perform their duties and cooperate closely.” He directly called out the names of several people: "Major Ouyang, according to the principle of the district responsibility system, you have a heavy responsibility. There was a group visit during the Spring Festival, and one vote vetoed it. "Minister Zhongda, although today is a special study on the issue of the silk spinning factory, it is actually a common requirement for all walks of life and all fronts in the city. Stability is the overriding priority. If there is any problem during the Spring Festival, the main leading cadres will be dealt with by the organization department. Put forward handling opinions. "Minister Mingjun, you have to pay close attention to the media, and you can't have negative news during the Spring Festival. The media I'm talking about includes not only newspapers and radio stations, but also websites. Nowadays, the Internet is everywhere, and online opinions are biased. This is a new trend in today's propaganda work." Zhu Minsheng finally said to Jiang Xidong: "Director Jiang, you need someone to tie the bell to untie the bell. In the end, the solution to many problems in the silk spinning factory depends on the factory, and the responsibility cannot be shifted to the government." After the meeting, Zhao Chengyi walked up to Hou Weidong and said, "Secretary Zhu, please go to the office." When he arrived at Zhu Minsheng's office, it was rare for Zhu Minsheng not to sit at the large and thick desk, but to stand by the window like a statue. Hou Weidong He said hello, stood at the table, and patiently waited for Zhu Minsheng to return to the table. Hou Weidong served as the secretary of two leaders. When he was the secretary, he kept learning from Zhu Yan and Zhou Changquan. He had to look up to these two leaders from time to time.Facing Zhu Minsheng at this time, he didn't feel the need to look up at all. Looking at Zhu Minsheng's thoughtful back, Hou Weidong could even think about his thoughts, even though he had little contact with Zhu Minsheng in private. "Is Zhu Minsheng's level not as good as Zhu and Zhou's, or has my level improved?" Thinking of this question, Hou Weidong was a little distracted. Zhu Minsheng played the role of the statue for a while, then returned to his desk, and said, "Mayor Weidong, as the deputy mayor in charge, you must have a city-wide thinking and consider the development of state-owned enterprises in the city as a whole." Hou Weidong said: "According to the spirit of the central government, state-owned enterprises mainly focus on high-tech and high-end industries that are related to people's livelihood. Enterprises such as silk spinning factories should be restructured. I am in favor of a comprehensive restructuring of municipal state-owned enterprises in Shazhou, such as silk spinning. The factory is a bottomless pit, no matter how much money is spent, it cannot be filled.” Zhu Minsheng has been engaged in party affairs work and is not familiar with economic work. After he came to Shazhou to take power, he felt tremendous pressure, especially as Shazhou was getting farther and farther away from Tiezhou, which put him under tremendous pressure.Now that the provincial leadership team has undergone major adjustments, Zhu Minsheng is also considering how to make a major breakthrough in Shazhou.He has done a good job in Shazhou, and he can make further progress. If Shazhou cannot break through the encirclement, his political life will end in Shazhou in all likelihood. "Weidong, the municipal party committee has placed high hopes on you. I believe you can play the game of state-owned enterprises in Shazhou well. You have a bright future. Work hard. The silk spinning factory has serious problems and must be resolved within this year. Cadres cannot be replaced, and the system is not in order. I will fully authorize you. The work during the Spring Festival is stable, and how to operate it is up to you.” Coming out of Zhu Minsheng's office, Hou Weidong felt that the burden on his shoulders was as heavy as Mount Tai, and at the same time he felt the pride of being ordered by Chengjin County when he was in danger. He puffed up his chest and went downstairs in high spirits. At 5:30, Hou Weidong called Huang Zidi: "Mayor Huang, I want to report to you about the silk spinning factory." "I'm in the office, come here." Huang Zidi had a meeting in the province, and he was going to Yi Zhongling's house at night, so he hurried back to Shazhou, and he was about to call Hou Weidong.Hou Weidong walked to the corner office and saw Liu Kun when he entered the door. Liu Kun has not changed much from a few years ago, his hair is neatly combed, and he still looks like a handsome young man, but there is an extra beard around his mouth, which makes him look more mature.He made a cup of tea for Hou Weidong, and sat aside with his notebook. Hou Weidong reported on the basic situation of the strike in the silk spinning factory and the spirit of the afternoon meeting. In fact, Huang Zidi already knew the content of the meeting in the afternoon. After listening to Hou Weidong's report, he said: "Secretary Zhu has given instructions, and the municipal government must implement them seriously. I have two ideas. One is to ensure stable work during the Spring Festival. You must fully rely on silk As for the team of the spinning factory, Secretary Zhu made it very clear that to untie the bell, the person who tied the bell needs to be untied. The enterprise has the responsibility of the enterprise, and the government has the responsibility of the government. This point must be clearly distinguished. Second, the problem of the silk spinning factory is a state-owned enterprise Sickness, as the saying goes, sickness comes like a mountain, and sickness goes like spinning silk, we can't hope that the medicine will cure the disease, we can't be impatient, we can't rush forward, we must have a historical and scientific attitude towards silk spinning factories." Hou Weidong thought about it while listening, "Huang Zidi's statement is very interesting." He always felt that there was a subtle inconsistency between Huang and Zhu's expressions, but he couldn't figure it out for a while. "Mayor Huang, I will have a dialogue with the representatives of the silk spinning factory workers tonight. What instructions do you have?" Huang Zidi said: "The symposium at night is very necessary. It can find out the state of mind of the workers and at the same time show the attitude of the city government. You have to prepare carefully. I won't participate if I have something to do. Liu Kun can go and listen." Huang Zidi is the mayor of Shazhou City. If he is too close to the front line, the government will have no room for maneuver. Such an arrangement is more reasonable, but Hou Weidong is a little tired of Liu Kun, thinking: "Liu Kun is narrow-minded, and with such a delicate identity, it will be really difficult in the future." Avoid it, it's fucking annoying." Hou Weidong had dinner in the office canteen, and then wandered around the garden outside the canteen for a while.Starting from the morning, in order to solve the problems of the silk spinning factory, he held meetings in the morning and afternoon, and had to talk to the workers' representatives in the evening. As the deputy mayor in charge, his work will directly affect the overall stability of the city. So he felt heavy pressure. "Every major event is calm." He thought about the couplets that had been hung in Zhao Yongsheng's office, and walked on the path behind the cafeteria.At this time, the office cafeteria was already being cleaned, and a middle-aged dishwasher was singing happily. Although she was seriously out of tune, her singing was full of joy of labor. After enjoying the happiness of being alone in the small forest, Hou Weidong was in a peaceful mood when he returned to the office building. At 7 o'clock, he walked into the meeting room on time, and at this time four or five workers in work clothes had already arrived in the small meeting room. At this time, in Yi Zhongling's villa, Huang Zidi, Yi Zhongling and others were sitting around the hot pot. It was a good product at first sight, this is the tiger penis I bought from the zoo at a great price, plus the bull penis and dog penis, cooked by a super master, it is very nourishing." Sitting on the table were two young women aged eighteen or nineteen. They were twins. They covered their mouths and smiled after hearing Yi Zhongling's words.The two of them had exactly the same demeanor and movements, and they were full of different styles, which made Huang Zidi's eyes straighten. Yi Zhongling said: "What are you laughing at, I'll let you know how good it is in a while." For Huang Zidi, women are like drugs. Whenever he is alone, he keeps telling himself to stay away from women and money, but when Yi Zhongling calls, he always makes mistakes come to this villa. At 8 o'clock, Yi Zhongling said to the young woman, "Go take a bath by yourself and wait for the elder brother." The two young women left the table. Yi Zhongling said: "Both of them are from other provinces. They only arrived in Shazhou in the afternoon. They are very safe. Don't worry about it. I will send someone to take them away tomorrow morning. From now on, I will follow the call of my brother at any time." In the government conference room, Jiang Jin presided over the meeting and said: "Today, there are eight worker representatives from the silk spinning factory attending the meeting. On the government side, there are deputy mayor Hou who is in charge of industry, the mayor of Ouyang District in Dongcheng District, section chief Liu Kun of the Municipal Party Committee Office, Ren Lindu Section Chief. This symposium is to hear the true thoughts and intentions of the workers, so the leadership of the silk spinning factory was not involved. Please speak freely, tell the truth, tell the truth, and do not exaggerate or cover up. " "Which master should I invite to speak first, please make a self-introduction before speaking." The eight worker representatives looked at each other, and one of the glasses said first: "Then I will speak. I am a technician, and my name is Wang Jianguo. First, I will throw bricks and stones and talk about my thoughts." Hou Weidong opened the notebook in his hand and wrote down Wang Jianguo's name. Wang Jianguo's speech was very sharp: "Silk spinning mills used to be brilliant, and now they are at this point. I think four of them are natural disasters and six are man-made disasters. Natural disasters are the objective factors of the market economy. Man-made disasters, I put it bluntly, refer to The factory leader. There are silk spinning factories of the same nature as ours in neighboring provinces. Why can they develop and do better? Township enterprises of the same nature are inferior to ours in technology and equipment. Why can they achieve better benefits than us? ?The technology and equipment of the silk spinning factory are not behind, and it will take another six or seven years, at least in Lingxi, it will still be at an advanced level. I think it is the factory leaders who are behind." Hou Weidong wrote it down quickly in his notebook. Wang Jianguo had a desperate look, and said, "Last year, the loan was 40 million yuan, which was mainly used for technological transformation. The factory completed an upgrade, but after the technological transformation, half of the machines were idle. I would like to ask what is the reason for this?" why?" Hou Weidong thought to himself: "Nowadays, the benefit of a factory depends not only on production, but also on sales. If it can't be sold, what's the use of producing more?" Ruoyou Ruowu nodded his head as an encouragement to him. After Wang Jianguo finished speaking, a worker spoke. From his figure and expression, it could be seen that he was a front-line worker.He said in a loud voice: "We don't have much of an opinion when officials eat and drink, but it's too much to eat abroad! In recent years, the factory has not been able to pay wages, and those brains and brains have gone abroad in turn. It's dollars, dripping with the sweat and blood of workers!" Another grey-haired female worker said: "Since the establishment of the silk spinning factory, I have been working in the factory. My two sons and three daughters are all in the factory. I have not been paid for five months. How can we live?" A wrinkled old man said: "I am a representative of retired cadres. Back then, our regiment came to Shazhou from the northeast. I stayed in Shazhou to help the local construction. I participated in the construction of the silk spinning factory from the beginning to the end. See It hurts my heart to see the factory decay like this! I don’t agree with the workers’ strike today, but if there is no strike, who will listen to the workers’ opinions?” Hou Weidong took a careful look at the old man. The old man was sitting upright, wearing a well-washed but clean overalls, showing the look and temperament of a soldier. The old man spoke in Shandong dialect and said in a loud voice: "According to the government's practice, this time the strike will definitely gain something. The government will coordinate several million funds in all likelihood, and each worker will get a few hundred yuan. Chinese New Year, but what's the use, what we want is a red factory, not for a few hundred dollars." Eight workers took turns to speak, from 7 o'clock to 10 o'clock quickly, Hou Weidong deliberately got more information, and took notes patiently. Jiang Jin said: "It's getting late, what else can I say, I don't need to talk about what I just said, I mainly talk about new content." Hou Weidong raised his hand, interrupted Jiang Jin's words, and said, "It's very rare to hear the truth from the masters today. Don't limit the time. We can listen as long as the masters talk." He said to Ren Lindu again : "Section Chief Ren, go and buy some instant noodles. People are like iron and rice is steel. Two bowls will be hard after eating." The last two sentences are typical workers' language. These workers are very familiar with it. While eating, the atmosphere eased unconsciously. At 12 o'clock, Hou Weidong made a very brief final speech. "I am very moved by everyone's love for the factory. I believe that with this kind of spirit and such workers, there will be no mountain of sharp knives that cannot be overcome. Next, I will talk about five points. "First, the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government are very concerned about the silk spinning factory and the workers. For the past three years, they have coordinated loans every year. This is obvious to all. This afternoon, Secretary Zhu of the Municipal Party Committee attended the meeting in person to study silk spinning together. Regarding the work of the factory, please take a sentence back. Please rest assured that the municipal party committee and the municipal government have not forgotten you. Second, I hope that this action will end as soon as possible. Everyone will return to their posts and continue the strike. The damage to the factory It will be fatal. Masters who love the factory like home, I believe they will think more long-term. Third, I will make a comprehensive report to the municipal party committee and the municipal government on the problems reflected today. It must be dealt with seriously and will never be tolerated. Fourth, I am entrusted by the municipal party committee and the municipal government to conduct research on the future development of the enterprise, and there will be corresponding measures soon. Fifth, before the Spring Festival, the municipal party committee and the municipal government will coordinate funds, Giving cash to the workers years ago is a drop in the bucket, but it’s better than nothing.” After the meeting was over, Hou Weidong said to Ren Lindu: "The municipal government office will arrange the round-trip transportation expenses for the workers." Ren Lindu said: "I have prepared a few small cars." Hou Weidong shook his head, and said, "Don't take the car, let the workers see it and say it's corruption, the taxi fare is 10 yuan each way, 20 yuan per person." Ren Lindu hurried to prepare change notes. After the workers left, it was already 12:30. Hou Weidong sat in the office and flipped through the notebook that had recorded half a book. These basic materials made him feel extraordinarily precious. After thinking about it, he took the notebook home and locked it in the In the secret safe in the study.Locking all important items in the safe is a habit Hou Weidong has developed since Shangqinglin was raided by the procuratorate. It has been maintained from 1994 to 2002, and perhaps it will continue to be maintained in the future. When she came to the bed, Xiao Jia opened her eyes and asked, "Why is it so late?" "The silk spinning factory is on strike, and I have a dialogue with the workers." "How do you talk to the workers at night? Don't you have time during the day? You don't have a shower, so hurry up and take a shower." Hou Weidong was really tired after a busy day, and said with a smile, "If you don't do laundry, why take a shower." Washing clothes is a metaphor for couples, referring to sexual love between husband and wife. Xiao Jia looked up at the small alarm clock next to the bed, and said, "Stop making trouble, take a shower quickly, and go to bed earlier." Hou Weidong took a bath, jumped into the warm bed, hugged Xiaojia, and said, "We haven't washed clothes for a long time, maybe a month." Xiao Jia said angrily: "This is a man's responsibility. I remember doing it a few days before the election, and you have been sabotaging your work since then." The two are naked next to each other. This intimate posture makes people feel warm and safe. There is more family affection and less pornography. Hou Weidong explained: "I am not familiar with the operation of large state-owned enterprises. In order to deal with this difficult problem, I just Can work harder." Xiao Jia curled up comfortably in Hou Weidong's arms, and said, "If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask my parents, they have been in the factory all their lives, and they know all the tricks, it's better than you being side-by-side here. many." This reminded Hou Weidong. He held his wife's warm chest with one hand, rubbed it, and said, "It's getting late, let's sleep." In the morning, when Hou Weidong knocked on the door, Chen Qingrong and Zhang Yuanzheng were drinking porridge and eating pickles.Seeing Hou Weidong, the old couple were surprised. Over the years, Hou Weidong has been very kind to them, bought a house, and spent money generously. The only regret is that he is too busy and rarely comes to sit at home, let alone Said to enter the house in the morning. Chen Qingrong still had a big white steamed bun in her mouth, and asked vaguely, "Have you eaten yet?" "No." Chen Qingrong put down the bowl, quickly went to fill a bowl of porridge, brought over the steamed stuffed buns in the pot, picked up two pieces of fermented bean curd, and said, "Eat it while it's hot." 侯卫东也不客气，喝着稠稠的稀饭，问道：“绢纺厂昨天罢工，我过来问一问国营厂的情况。” 张远征高声道：“怎么会不知道，我早就知道他们要罢工。” "why?" “我们以前的邻居有好几家人在绢纺厂上班，我对他们的情况熟悉得紧。他们知道你在当副市长，这两天都在给我打电话，打听情况。” 侯卫东很感兴趣地道：“绢纺厂有什么门道？我昨天听工人师傅们发言，听得模模糊糊。” 张远征和陈庆蓉在国有工厂工作了一辈子，对其中的弯弯绕熟悉得紧，只不过退休在家，关于国企的知识烂在肚子里没有了半点作用，此时被侯卫东询问，顿时有了变废为宝的感觉。张远征泡了两杯茶，道：“要说国企，我肚子里有一本账，慢慢给你讲。” 他说得唾液横飞时，响起了敲门声。 开门后，涌进来了好几个人，都是当年的邻居，他们或是在绢纺厂工作，或是有家里人在绢纺厂工作。 “老刘，老朱，你们几个怎么大清早就来了。” “老张，我们的事你要给女婿说一说。”一个大嗓门高声地道，他猛然间看见了正在吃稀饭的侯卫东，后面一句话便被硬生生堵了回去。 工人们难得如此近距离见到市长，虽然是副职，可是在工人眼里没有多大的区别，大家七嘴八舌，反映了不少事情。这些事情大多是鸡毛蒜皮的小事，也有许多捕风捉影之事，质量与昨天晚上工人代表的谈话差得太远。 侯卫东又重申了昨天讲过的五点，见时间也差不多了，这才离开岳丈家。 张远征热情地给工人们倒水泡茶，在老邻居的一片恭维声中，他心里特别满足，送工人出门时，道：“我们都是老邻居了，你们有什么事情，给我打电话。” 侯卫东坐车朝市政府走，透过车窗，发现不少工人模样的人走在大街上。其实大街上工人没有增多，也没有减少，只是侯卫东关注点集中在绢纺厂身上，因此才会注意到街道上的工人。 黄子堤眼睛带着些血丝，昨天疯了两次，让他累并快乐着，他坐在茶几前思考绢纺厂的事情。当刘坤进来送文件时，他吩咐道：“让侯市长到我办公室来。” 刘坤将牛奶倒进了瓷杯子，放在黄子堤桌上，道：“黄市长，喝些牛奶，阿姨交代的。” 放下牛奶，他走出了黄子堤办公室，并没有直接去通知侯卫东，而是坐到自己办公室给秘书科打了电话，道：“请通知侯副市长，到黄市长办公室来。” 接电话的人是市政府办的老员工胡强，他看了来电显示，朝着坐在对面桌子的任林渡道：“给主要领导当了秘书，连脾气也涨了，他的办公室距离侯市长的办公室也就两个门的距离，还打电话让我去出通知。” 这两天，任林渡也受了刘坤的鸟气，他嘿嘿笑道：“任何事情都是有原因滴，听我慢慢道来。刘坤和侯卫东在大学时是同班同寝室的同学，毕业后，刘坤的爸爸刘军是益杨县委常委、宣传部长，他自然顺风顺水，侯卫东还在益杨青林镇当白丁时，他就到青林镇当了镇长助理。后来在换届选举时，侯卫东跳票当了副镇长，把刘坤挤了下去。跳票当副镇长，这就是卫东同志官场生涯的起点。” 胡强听得愣愣的，道：“还有这一出戏，难怪刘坤要通知我去请侯市长，不过话又说回来，该认输就得认输，侯市长和刘坤已经完全是不同层次了。” 两人议论了几句，胡强这才出门去找侯卫东。他以前看到侯卫东只是一个抽象的领导，今天听到了任林渡的故事，侯卫东在他眼里就立体了许多。 胡强刚走回办公室，又接到了刘坤的电话：“黄市长在办公室等着，你去出通知没有？” “刘科长，我已经出了通知。” “那怎么还没有过来？”刘坤知道侯卫东是挺利索的一个人，就有些怀疑胡强没有及时通知。 胡强还是不敢顶撞刘坤，解释道：“我已经出了通知。” 刘坤放下电话，准备亲自去通知侯卫东，就见到侯卫东手里拿着笔记本走了过来。两人在走道上面对面相遇，刘坤无法躲避，道：“侯副市长，黄市长请你过去谈事情。” 侯卫东心里正在想着如何汇报绢纺厂的事情，点了点头，道：“我知道了。” 看着侯卫东走远，刘坤心里有些自怨自艾，更多的是恼火，暗道：“不就是一个破副市长，有什么了不起，谁笑到最后，谁才是胜利者！”虽然生气，可是刘坤心里明白，全市四百多万人口，要爬上副市长的位置，除了努力外，还得有狗屎运。侯卫东先后当了县委书记、市委书记的秘书，这就是狗屎运，而自己通过不断努力也终于当上了市长秘书，算是踏上了狗屎运的边缘。 刘坤暗自为自己打气：“一定要把握住机遇，不能辜负这一次的狗屎运，记着，下次要喊侯市长，不加上副字，退一步海阔天空，我得忍。”在市政府办公室，只有刘坤一直称呼侯卫东为“侯副市长”，这是最正确的称呼，但是也是大家都不采用的称呼方式，把“副”字加在里面，实在是有些刺耳。 季海洋耳朵长，已经听到其他秘书说过此事。刘莉特意去找了爸爸，退居二线的原宣传部长刘军专程来到市里，专门找刘坤谈了一次话。刘坤已经同意改口，可是今天与侯卫东迎面而见，他还是将“副”字脱口带出。喊出“侯副市长”以后，他进行了激烈的思想活动，这个心理过程虽然复杂，实际上也不过就是拿着本子到了黄子堤办公室的这一小段距离。 “卫东市长，才上任就遇到棘手事，这是对你的考验啊。”黄子堤态度很好，呵呵笑道，“卫东其实是年轻的老领导了，这点小风波在你面前不过是小菜一碟。” 侯卫东把笔记本放在桌上，道：“春节将至，我担心事情处理不好，会对市政府造成不良影响。” 黄子堤道：“这是国有企业的老毛病了，以前我在当市委秘书长时，到绢纺厂搞过调研。当时各县的丝厂和绢纺厂纷纷破产，市绢纺厂在行业内就一枝独秀，此一时彼一时，如今市绢纺厂也要走上县绢纺厂的老路了。” 侯卫东琢磨着黄子堤的意思，道：“春节前只能是保平安了，对绢纺厂整改得放在年后。” “我同意你的观点，春节前全力保稳定，处理办下午的意见我完全同意，可以由政府去协调银行贷款，解决工人们的过年钱，具体生产还得由厂里领导来负责。”黄子堤又道，“国有企业是老大难问题，迟早要彻底解决，可是心急吃不了热豆腐，有一个水到渠成的过程，太早太晚都不利于解决问题。” “周书记在任上时，一直想要彻底解决绢纺厂问题，关、停、并、转等几套方案都提了出来，最后他仍然没有下定决心。毕竟全厂六千多职工，真要是破产了，将会在沙州引起一系列社会问题。周书记当时说了八个字，一是积重难返，二是千万慎重，现在我仍然记得起周书记说话时的表情和语气。组织上让我来当这个市长，我现在才能体会到周书记当时做出选择时的心境。” 黄子堤是周昌全的大管家，侯卫东是周昌全的大秘，在周昌全时代，两人关系处理得挺好，后来因为利益而渐行渐远。 此时，黄子堤在办公室提起了共同为周昌全服务的日子，这让侯卫东有些迷惑，他一边听着，一边暗自琢磨着。信一半，猜一半，已经成为侯卫东的习惯性思维。 侯卫东道：“黄市长，你放心，绢纺厂的问题既有国有体制的问题，包袱重、成本高、机构大，也有市场风险的问题，还有不平等竞争的问题，我会慎重行事，凡是重大决定，一定会依照组织程序，先汇报再行动。” 将公事谈完，黄子堤话题转移到私事上来，道：“你大哥娶了蒋笑吧？我认识蒋笑的时候，她还在读幼儿园，一转眼时间，小姑娘已经嫁人了。” 侯卫东道：“大嫂已经怀孕了。” 黄子堤亲切地道：“我和厚石也是老朋友了，我在市委办公室，他在市政府办公室，经常都有往来，如果不是年龄大了，厚石还有发展前途。蒋秘书长不错，只是与厚石相比，还差了一些经验。” 坐在一旁服务的刘坤有些惊讶，黄子堤只有在喝了酒以后，话才特别多，而今天，他显然并没有喝酒。 谈了一个多小时，侯卫东离开了黄子堤办公室。走到了门口，见高健站在走道上，等着给黄子堤汇报工作。 高健将侯卫东拉到了门口，低声道：“我今天要向黄市长汇报梁亚军的事情，请侯市长适时说两句好话。” 侯卫东道：“嗯，知道了。” 高健与侯卫东匆匆说了一句，见到了门口的刘坤，道：“刘科长，你好，黄市长有时间吗？我向他汇报工作。” 刘坤平平稳稳地道：“黄市长等一会儿要开会，最多还有半个小时的时间。” 高健笑着道：“半个小时，足够了。” 侯卫东回到办公室，想着高健的事，心道：“高健找错了庙门，朱民生想着要让南部新区发扬光大，怎么会轻易让人染指一把手的位置？”有了这个判断，侯卫东打定主意不为梁亚军说话。 他转念又想起了黄子堤的谈话，暗道：“听说黄子堤是省长朱建国推荐的，杨森林是朱建国的晚辈，我大哥与蒙厚石成了亲戚，我则间接与朱建国攀上了关系。这样看起来，沙州市政府都和省长朱建国有着密切关系，说不定还会被人封一个朱家帮。” 想到这里，他又有些担心，被人打上派系的标签，有好处，但更多的是弊端。
