Chapter 15 If you want to find "dry goods", you have to go down and do research

The next day, Ouyang Sheng, the mayor of Dongcheng District, came here to report on his work. When Hou Weidong was working as Zhou Changquan's secretary, Ouyang Sheng was still the deputy head of Dongcheng District and was not qualified to report to Zhou Changquan, so he was not familiar with Hou Weidong.He wanted to take advantage of this time to deal with the silk spinning factory incident and build a relationship with Hou Weidong.Anyone with a discerning eye is optimistic about Hou Weidong, a 31-year-old sub-department-level real-time leader, and it is difficult to think that he will not develop.

Dongcheng District’s stability maintenance plan for the silk spinning factory was very detailed. In addition to the basic framework, street officials were also arranged to contact a few workers who were active in the strike. scope, to ensure that no petitions are made during the Spring Festival.” The petition system was originally a channel for the masses to express their demands, but traditional culture has a sense of honesty, and the bigger the better, the result of the game now is that ordinary people always like to go to Lingxi Province and the capital to petition when they encounter problems.The overwhelmed higher authorities have formulated a policy: whenever there is a petition or group visit to the capital, the local leaders should be responsible, and some places have even vetoed it with one vote.

Theoretically speaking, this system is full of contradictions. From a practical point of view, it has become a life-saving straw for petitioners and a rope for governments at all levels.Every holiday and major festival, the rope gets tighter and tighter, making governments at all levels breathless.Dongcheng District is an old district, facing a lot of conflicts. After being roped in many times, the Dongcheng District Government has rich experience in dealing with petitioners. Hou Weidong was the secretary of the county party committee. He understands Dongcheng District’s approach and has his own views on the one-vote veto, but this view cannot be expressed in front of Ouyang Sheng. The opinion is only that we should pay attention to the method when implementing it, so as not to cause resentment.” He also urged, “Before the Spring Festival, there are particularly many cases of property infringement, and we must pay attention to comprehensive management. Poor working families can get relief through various channels.”

Ouyang Sheng said: "There are too many needy workers in the silk spinning factory, and it is difficult to rescue them all." At this time, Hou Weidong thought of the rescue website established by Li Jing, and said: "Under the current situation, helping one person counts as one person. Now there are private channels to integrate resources. You first make a list of impoverished people in the silk spinning factory. ways to help them.” After Ouyang Sheng thanked him, he said again: "There are a lot of difficult enterprises in Dongcheng District. The silk spinning factory is a large enterprise. The camels are bigger than horses, and life is relatively better. The workers in street factories are even poorer after bankruptcy. In Dongcheng District Work, suffer more than others, and have lower grades than others, it's not fair. Mayor Hou still needs to take time to care about our cadres in Dongcheng District. Are you free tonight? We would like to invite Mayor Hou to dinner."

Now the leader's tenure is only five years. In order to achieve political achievements as soon as possible during the tenure, the leader attaches great importance to the construction of the development zone. After all, it is easy to draw the latest and most beautiful picture on a piece of white paper.The basic conditions of the old urban area are poor, and demolition is necessary for renovation. Demolition is a big trouble, and most leaders are unwilling to touch it.Under this guiding ideology, all localities generally use the best cadres in the development zones, and tilt the funds to the development zones, as long as the old urban areas can be maintained.

Hou Weidong knew that what Ouyang Sheng said was true. He, the deputy mayor, had risen too fast and didn't have much foundation. He also intended to get in touch with powerful figures like Ouyang Sheng. Have a good drink with District Chief Ouyang." Ouyang Sheng said happily: "Mayor Hou, we will see you that night." Hou Weidong sent Ouyang Sheng to the door, and was about to go out when he received a call from Su Mingjun, saying, "Weidong, I have a computer in my office, take a look at today's forum, there is a post about the strike at the silk spinning factory, I asked Xiao Dai Lai will open it for you."

Dai Lingling from the Propaganda Department used to work in the Chengjin Propaganda Department. After she came to Hou Weidong's office, she found Today's Forum.Hou Weidong saw the post that Su Mingjun mentioned. The title of the post was very eye-catching - "Government and business collusion, massive loss of state-owned assets."Dai Lingling explained from the side: "The following posts are too dirty, Mayor Hou can ignore it." Hou Weidong turned his head and said to Dai Lingling who was standing aside: "Thank you, I will take a look." When Dai Lingling left, he said: "Please close the door."

The first comment was "A group of corrupt officials, all shot to death." ... "Damn it, the workers' hard-earned money has been squandered by the government, and the morality has degenerated to 300 years ago." "Pull out the officials and shoot them one by one. They will definitely be wronged. If they shoot every other one, they will be arrested. This sentence is too good!" "It can't be generalized. There are various reasons for state-owned enterprises to get to where they are today. There is a shortage of funds, the system is not smooth, the burden is heavy, and self-employed are breaking the law and discipline. The current leaders of state-owned enterprises are not responsible."

"Upstairs is a spy, pull it out and show it, the female horse is a P." "Hou Weidong, the deputy mayor in charge of the enterprise, called the workers' representatives to the municipal government for a black meeting at night, and bribed the representatives. These representatives who took the money were bribed, and they actually spoke for the government. It seems that money can make ghosts push grind." "Hou Weidong is the youngest official in the whole province. He is the role of carrying bags and serving tea to Zhou Changquan. He actually became the deputy mayor. If things go on like this, the country will fail!"

"Hou Weidong is still good. In Chengjin, he took care of the black forces headed by Li Dongfang and Fang Jie..." "The one upstairs must be a dry radish. He speaks for the big corrupt officials. The secretaries are all bad guys. How many good things are there? I heard that Hou Weidong changed from a country bumpkin to a Shazhou city man because of his wife's beauty. " "Upstairs sb, the appraisal is complete." "I greet the 18th generation of women upstairs. There are a few good people who are officials now. The officials are horribly corrupt. Hou Weidong became the deputy mayor at such a young age. He must have bribed him. Why didn't anyone check his financial sources?"

"Hou Weidong is the son of a high-ranking official. It is said that his father is a provincial leader. In this society, dragons beget dragons and phoenixes, and mice beget burrows." "Masters of the silk spinning factory, there is one surnamed Chen, and only one surnamed Wu is missing. Keep going on strike until the final victory." "The arrogance of power has become shameless to the extreme, and the theft of state property has reached the point where it is arbitrary. I don't know how the common people will live tomorrow?" ... Hou Weidong is usually very busy. He mainly uses the computer to read news and receive emails. He rarely hangs out on forums. At this time, when he sees irrelevant insults on the Internet, he was puzzled at first, but gradually became angry and hard to calm down.He tried to reply to the post, but he needed to register again, thinking about registering, he hesitated. "Ayabe, I'm Hou Weidong. I read the post just now. Most of the comments are baseless insults. The main post is even more nonsense. It has not been investigated and it is all based on speculation." Su Mingjun said: "Just now, Xiao Dai opened this forum to Secretary Zhu. Secretary Zhu is very angry. He will soon call a meeting of relevant personnel to study how to formulate measures to restore the influence and prevent the spread." Hou Weidong was directly involved. He did a lot of basic work, but was taken out as a target. At this moment, he could only smile wryly, and said, "These posts do not conform to the facts. Can you do the work to delete the main post?" "I'm afraid this matter is not easy to handle. The person who posted the post is anonymous, and the people who follow the post come from all over the world, and these big websites, our city-level propaganda minister does not have such great energy." After Su Mingjun became the propaganda director, Internet public opinion It has become a headache for him. The threshold of the Internet is low, pervasive, mixed with true and false, with high participation of the masses, and a wide range of influence. A little carelessness, it becomes a national news. Not long after Hou Weidong and Su Mingjun talked on the phone, he received a meeting notice from the Municipal Party Committee Office. Walking into the office, the staff of the Municipal Committee Office delivered a thick stack of typed manuscripts, which were the main post and follow-up posts of "Collusion between Government and Business, Mass Loss of State-owned Assets" specially copied by the Municipal Committee Office. Hou Weidong looked at the thick manuscript, and said to Zhu Jielin, the deputy director of the Propaganda Department who was sitting next to him with a bitter look on his face: "Minister Zhu, this is completely a rumor. The city government is formulating a plan. Now it is making a lot of noise, which is not conducive to our solution to the problem. .” Zhu Jielin is the deputy director in charge of external propaganda. He was very helpless with the Internet, saying: "The Propaganda Department has already contacted these big websites. Our prefecture-level propaganda department doesn't care about these big websites at all. Their attitude is very tough. One sentence In order to maintain the fairness and transparency of the news, we will not take the initiative to remove the main post.” Hou Weidong knew the difficulties of the Propaganda Department, and said: "The website pursues click-through rate, and I wish it could catch fire everywhere. Our locality is to pursue safety. The website and our goals are completely different, and it is difficult to reach a consensus." "It's Mayor Hou who understands our propaganda department." Hou Weidong understood the difficulties of the Propaganda Department very well. Firstly, he did understand, and secondly, he was the deputy mayor and could not manage the Propaganda Department.Zhu Minsheng slapped the thick typeface on the table and said: "This article is completely fabricated, and the Propaganda Department must take down this post tomorrow. What does the Propaganda Department do? It is to make positive publicity, to do Good public opinion control. If you can’t do publicity well, what’s the use of the Propaganda Department?!” When Zhu Minsheng made a fuss, Zhu Jielin said eagerly: "Secretary Zhu, we have communicated with the website, and they have a very tough attitude and refused to withdraw the post." Zhu Minsheng said coldly: "You can't change the post, so can't the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee also change it? There are always ways, but can you think that this is the responsibility of your Propaganda Department, so let me, the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, go to Take down a post?" "This is a major issue related to the stability of Shazhou. We have made positive publicity ten times, but the effect was ruined by one negative post. The comrades here are all leaders, and talking about politics is an eternal theme. I am here to express my position, as long as If you have done your work well, the establishment and funding can all be resolved." Zhu Minsheng made a vigorous gesture and said, "However, I must achieve results." Hou Weidong came into contact with the Internet relatively early. He started surfing the Internet during the Ying Haiwei era, but he mainly used the Internet to send emails, read news, and occasionally use Qianlong software to check stocks. He did not expect the Internet to develop so fast. Such influence has been achieved in a few years. I went back to the office, turned on the computer, and wandered around various websites. These well-known forums in the country are often full of curses, especially when there are conflicts between the government and the masses. Regardless of the reason, they shout a big stick at the government agencies. Add pistols, and some even suggest bombing government agencies with atomic bombs.In the online world, everyone has the right to express their opinions. Hou Weidong thought: "The Internet is developing too fast. If this trend continues, the Internet will definitely become an important supervisory force. This is a manifestation of democracy and a positive attitude. Progressive forces, but because of the concealment of their real names, when people express their true opinions, the dark side is also fully exposed." The Internet is a double-edged sword, but there are always more bright sides than dark sides. Human nature is unimaginably complicated, but there is always an instinct to yearn for the light that supports human society towards the light. Hou Weidong went around in various forums and returned to today's forum. "Government and Business Collusion, Large Loss of State-owned Assets" has been pinned to the top, and there is a lot of shouting and beating on the Internet. Hou Weidong and Jiang Xidong have become the two villains. The 31-year-old deputy mayor attracted the attention of netizens. After more than 800 comments, netizens were full of doubts about Hou Weidong. A netizen with "Pines and Cypresses as High as a Thousand Feet" has been trying to help Hou Weidong speak, but his explanation is as ridiculous and helpless as Don Quixote amidst many doubts. Hou Weidong was quite angry at first, but he felt numb and bored after seeing it. He closed Today's forum and opened the email casually. His mailbox has a lot of emails from Zhumei. In the past, Zhumei sent him emails every three days, including when he was in Boston, he always sent emails for major and minor matters. But when he returned to Lingxi, Zhumei’s emails decreased significantly and gradually disappeared. . At this time, I clicked on the mailbox, and unexpectedly saw an unfamiliar email. When I opened the email, it was an untitled poem with no beginning and no end: Coming is empty talk, going to disappear, the moon tilts upstairs at five o'clock. The dream is far away and it is difficult to call out, and the book is urged into ink. The wax shines on a half-cage of golden jadeite, and the musk deer is slightly embroidered with smiles. Liu Lang hated Pengshan far away, and Pengshan was 10,000 times away. "Who will send me the poem? It can only be her." Hou Weidong read the poem once, carefully comprehended the artistic conception of the poem, and the inexplicable emotion soaked into his heart like a spring breeze.Among the people he knew, only a very small number of people knew this mailbox, except for Zhu Mei, Guo Lan knew this mailbox. When the last bit of ash fell into the ashtray, Hou Weidong wrote back a letter to the anonymous man.He couldn't remember a few poems in his head, so he didn't do anything wrong, opened the document, wrote an exclamation point, and then sent the document back as an attachment. After Guo Lan sent this email, her heart was pounding, regretting her recklessness for a while, and worrying that Hou Weidong would not understand it. It was almost time for the meeting, Guo Lan opened the mailbox with a faint hope, and unexpectedly saw a reply letter.Looking at the three pinyins of "HWD", she knew that Hou Weidong did understand her letter. Although the weather was quite cold, she still felt a little fever on her face, and said to herself: "Guo Lan, Guo Lan, why did you send some inexplicable letters? The poem is for Hou Weidong, he has a wife!" Seeing the solitary exclamation point, Guo Lan was stunned for a while, she understood the meaning of the exclamation point very well, and felt a little gloomy.After sitting for a while, he picked up his notebook and came to the meeting room with a serious expression.The meeting room is about to convene a ministry committee to study some recent personnel issues. When the research is completed, they will report to Zeng Zhaoqiang with Mo Weimin. After Hou Weidong sent the "exclamation point", he forgot about the "exclamation point". He called Jiang Jin and said, "Director Jiang, how is the contact with the bank?" With Zhu Minsheng sitting in the town in person, Jiangjin dared not neglect, saying: "I contacted President Zhu of ICBC in the name of the government handling team, but he was not very willing. He said that if ICBC does not lend money this time, the money from the financial side will not exist in ICBC, and then President Zhu let go." Hearing that the bank loan was confirmed, Hou Weidong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I hope this is the last loan to the silk spinning factory." After getting accurate information, Hou Weidong called Jiang Xidong, the director of the silk spinning factory, and he wanted to have a group talk with the team members of the silk spinning factory. When Jiang Xidong received the call, his black face became even darker, and his voice sounded businesslike, "Mayor Hou, is our team coming to the city government, or are you here to inspect the factory?" Hou Weidong said with certainty, "I'm coming to the factory." "When will Mayor Hou come?" "In ten minutes, I will meet with the members of the silk spinning factory team." Jiang Xidong was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "There are not all members in the team, and production has not resumed yet, can you visit the factory another day?" Hou Weidong said: "It's okay, I want to see the real situation today, see you in the office in ten minutes." After saying this, he hung up the phone, walked to the door of the office, waved to Ren Lindu, and said: " Chief Ren, come with me." Ren Lindu was chatting happily, when he heard Hou Weidong's greeting, he hurriedly followed, and said, "Mayor Hou, where are we going?" "Silk spinning mill." When they went downstairs, Hou Weidong changed his smiling face and said, "Lin Du, what are you talking about?" The two faced each other, Ren Lindu relaxed, and said, "What can we talk about? " In 1993, Hou Weidong felt that Ren Lindu's social skills were unmatched when he was studying in the youth cadre class. But today in 2002, his views have changed. In the party and government organizations, if it is not a leader, eloquence is useless. Place is the big problem.He endured it, and reminded: "Lin Du, in the office, don't brag about these young people, you are different from them." Ren Lindu was slightly embarrassed, and said, "I will pay attention." Arriving at the gate of the silk spinning factory, Hou Weidong first noticed the big shed outside the family courtyard. Because it was working hours, the big shed seemed a little deserted, but there were still many people shaking inside.Jiang Xidong took six or seven people who looked like cadres to guard the gate of the factory area. When Hou Weidong got off the car, he strode over to meet Hou Weidong and said, "Welcome Mayor Hou to inspect the silk spinning factory." "Is production still normal?" "The leaders of the factory went to work separately today, and they can start work one after another in the afternoon." Hou Weidong nodded, greeted several cadres with his eyes, and then said: "I am in charge of the company, and this is my workplace. It's not called inspection, it's called knowing the way." Jiang Xidong said: "Mayor Hou, let's go to the meeting room, and the team will report to you collectively, please give important instructions." "Don't be so polite. I came here to discuss work. There is no need to add reports and instructions. Everyone just discusses work. Today I will take a quick look at the factory area, and then I would like to invite everyone to discuss ideas." Hou Weidong is only in his thirties. He looked very young in front of a group of factory leaders in their 40s and 50s, but he was very comfortable and calm in it. This made Ren Lindu, who was secretly observing, feel quite discouraged, and thought: "I think Hou Weidong was just a supporting role in the youth class, and he has been a leader for several years, but his temperament has changed drastically. His luck is really good. " Hou Weidong and Jiang Xidong talked cordially side by side, the team members followed behind, and the comrades from the propaganda department of the factory were taking pictures in front. In Hou Weidong's imagination, the situation of the silk spinning factory should be very bad, similar to that of the former Yiyang Native Products Company, but when he entered the factory area, he was surprised to find that the factory area was very clean and the greening was well done.Walking to the workshop, there were only a few workers doing maintenance inside. Hou Weidong touched the machine. There was not much dust on the machine, and the machine was covered with blue tiles. "This machine is very new." "This is a machine bought during the technical renovation the year before last, and it is at the leading level in Lingxi Province." Hou Weidong walked around the factory area, and everyone sat in the conference room. He was silent for a while, and said, "I want to ask a question. The silk spinning factory has good equipment and decades of experience. Why is it not profitable? Please answer me. this problem." Several factory leaders looked at each other, Jiang Xidong was about to speak, Hou Weidong made a stop gesture and said: "Director Jiang and I have communicated, and you will make a concluding statement. I want to hear the thoughts of other leaders. I want to listen to the truth and dry goods.” After waiting for a while, a fat man wearing glasses said: "I am the deputy general manager in charge of supply and marketing, and my name is Cheng Yonggui." He laughed at himself and said, "This Cheng Yonggui is not that Chen Yonggui, that Chen Yonggui is the deputy prime minister. I, Cheng Yonggui, is the deputy general manager, and the difference is a thousand miles away." "I'm the deputy general manager. If I were to be at the administrative level, I would at least be at the department level. A few years ago, I showed up the brand of Shazhou Silk Spinning Factory. It was a smooth journey, easy to do things, delicious food and spicy food. I really had a good few days. Now large and medium-sized enterprises are having a hard time. Credit is like diving from a high platform. They fell into the water from the diving platform, and fell into the deepest part of the pool. They have not yet surfaced. When I contacted the business, many old friends avoided I don’t see it, I’m afraid I’ll get my hands on it, the dignified department-level cadres are not as good as self-employed workers, and they are not as good as small bosses of township enterprises.” Speaking of this, Hou Weidong interjected: "This point of view, if put in the past few years, is in line with the status quo. Now that the state-owned enterprises have been reformed for so many years, except that the ownership system has not changed, everything that should be loosened has been loosened, and all powers that should be released have been released. , we can no longer complain about the market." Jiang Xidong has always had the concept of "a layman leading an expert" to Hou Weidong. When he heard the word "ownership", he was secretly surprised, and said: "Hou Weidong has a poisonous vision, and he hits the key point in one sentence. Don't underestimate him." At this time, he remembered what Yi Zhongling said again: "Hou Weidong is cruel and merciless, and he will not enter the company. He will be in charge of the enterprise. Brother, you should pay attention. The old county magistrate Fang, Li Dongfang, and Fang Jie in Chengjin, Three families were destroyed, and three lives were lost in Hou Weidong's hands." Cheng Yonggui was robbed by Hou Weidong, his expression remained unchanged, and he continued: "We have to be humble when we open the market outside, and we still have to worship our mother-in-law when we return home. Even the smallest clerk in the government agency can choke our necks." Hou Weidong frowned, and said: "Mr. Cheng, we are communicating internally. I understand all these situations. Let's talk about dry goods. Why can't they sell? It's because of the poor quality of the products, or the problem of sales channels, or the international and domestic market conditions. One, two is two, more practical." The leader of the silk spinning factory reported at 1:20 noon. After the other deputy general manager finished talking, Jiang Xidong took the time to say: "Mayor Hou, it's time for dinner." Hou Weidong said: "Is the chef in the factory on strike? It's fine if there is no strike. We eat in the factory cafeteria." He looked at the few people who hadn't reported yet and said, "In this way, we don't have to work hungry. We go to the table and talk while eating. .” Jiang Xidong said: "Mayor Hou, this is your first meeting with the team, so don't be too casual, go out to eat." Hou Weidong resolutely said: "Let the food group get some home-cooked food, as long as it is enough to eat." A group of people walked to the factory area. Since he often breathed fresh air in Shangqinglin Primary School, he attached great importance to the cleanliness of the community. This is not a matter of face, but a matter of reflecting the leader's mental outlook and taste.He went to Qinglin Town as the deputy mayor and planted many sweet-scented osmanthus trees in Qinglinchang Town. Lao Xing of the grain station appreciated it very much.However, things have two sides. As a street tree, the osmanthus tree has gone up in grade, but it grows too slowly, and it will be almost the same as before in a few years. When the sun makes people dizzy, some people scold: "It was Hou Weidong who wanted to plant osmanthus at the beginning. Trees, if you plant yellow jue trees, it can also provide shade now." "Director Jiang, the factory area is clean and tidy, and the cleaners don't have a holiday?" Hou Weidong praised.Ren Lindu followed beside him, thinking: "The environment of the factory area is good, and if the production cannot be carried out, it will be useless." Jiang Xidong felt a little guilty for no reason, and said, "The cleaners are temporary employees, and those who are on strike are all regular workers in the factory." Cheng Yonggui took over the conversation and said: "The regular workers still have the thinking of the planned economy model. They go to work lazily and have no sense of crisis. The factory is strictly managed, and they are serious. They feel that the management is strict and they want to go on strike. " Hou Weidong looked at the tidy factory area without commenting. Just after two o'clock, there was the sound of rumbling machines in the factory building, and the originally monotonous and peaceful factory building was suddenly full of vitality. Hou Weidong put down his chopsticks and said, "Today's meal is the most comfortable. If you don't drink, you can have an extra bowl of rice." Jiang Xidong was a little distracted, and when Hou Weidong finished speaking, he said: "Mayor Hou, have you finished eating, today is really easy." Hou Weidong pointed to the dishes on the table and said, "Today we ate Kung Pao Chicken, Konjac Duck, Braised Fish, Twice-cooked Pork. The chicken, duck and fish are all complete. In the past, the landlords could not eat such good food even during the Chinese New Year." "Our team will invite Mayor Hou to dinner another day." "I have contacted township enterprises in the county, and I am a layman in the management of large and medium-sized state-owned enterprises. Today is a good opportunity. I ask Factory Manager Jiang to be my teacher. I will take a look at the production process." The former deputy mayor, Liu Conveyor, had a fiery temper. When he was in charge of the company, he liked to scold people and get angry at every turn, but Jiang Xidong dared to talk back to Liu Conveyor.Facing the young and kind Hou Weidong at this time, he was subconsciously afraid.Hearing that Hou Weidong was going to see the factory process, he felt a little reluctant, but he had no reason to refuse the request of a deputy mayor in charge. The silk spinning factory was designed by college students studying in the Soviet Union, and the production workshops are arranged in the order of the production process.The factory building is also in the style of the former Soviet Union. The factory building is tall, well-lit, and the machines are roaring. The workers are all on their posts, tense and orderly. Jiang Xidong's file appeared in Hou Weidong's mind, and he thought to himself: "Now the silk spinning factory is actually running well, and there is no reason why it can't pay wages." When he walked out of the factory, Hou Weidong shook hands with the leaders of the silk spinning factory one by one, and finally shook hands with Jiang Xidong. He fully affirmed the silk spinning factory: "The management of a large enterprise is a profound knowledge. The management of the silk spinning factory is so high, which shows that the factory The leadership team is very effective, and I am more confident." After Hou Weidong left the factory, Jiang Xidong walked around the workshop with a heavy heart.As soon as he returned to the office, Cheng Yonggui walked over with a smile and said, "Boss, Hou Weidong has a good opinion of our factory today. He is just a township cadre and a bumpkin. He doesn't know how to manage modern enterprises." Jiang Xidong didn't regard Cheng Yonggui as an outsider, and snorted: "I heard from friends that Hou Weidong is very cunning. Today he meant something and spoke highly of our factory. Then why did the workers go on strike? Behind his praise That's the question, don't you idiot understand the subtext?" Cheng Yonggui turned around and thought about it, it really happened like this, and scolded: "This kid is not kind, fuck it." With a dark face, Jiang Xidong said: "Stop swearing, what's the point of swearing, the things I entrust to you must be done firmly, the things are important, and no mistakes can be made." When Hou Weidong returned to the office, he immediately called Jiang Jin and said, "Director Jiang, do you have any reports from the silk spinning factory?" Jiang Jin said excitedly: "Mayor Hou, I'm about to report to you that the silk spinning factory has resumed production and started work on time at two o'clock in the noon." "I see, you should have a report there, sort out a set and send it to me." "Mayor Hou, I'll send it over right away." After receiving the thick report, Hou Weidong smiled and said to Jiang Jin: "I didn't make it clear. For this kind of thing, you can just send someone over. There is no need to go there yourself." Jiang Jin smiled and said: "I have been educated by the party for many years, and I still understand the rules of standing at attention and taking a break. Mayor Hou needs a report, of course he has to deliver it in person." When Hou Weidong was secretary of the Chengjin County Party Committee, Jiangjin was the director of the planning committee. The two were equal in rank, but Jiangjin's position was important, and Hou Weidong always respected him when he came into contact with him.After the election, Jiang Jin's attitude changed a hundred and eighty degrees, without any discomfort or unnaturalness. After Hou Weidong became the deputy mayor, he admired Jiangjin's tact and sophistication.Sleek is not a derogatory term in many cases, it is precisely an armor against reality. "Director Jiang, you have been engaged in economic work and are an expert. If you regard the silk spinning factory as a patient, can you summarize the disease of the silk spinning factory in one sentence?" "Mayor Hou has a big topic, I have to go back and study it seriously." After chatting for ten minutes, Hou Weidong sent Jiang Jin to the door, shook hands, and said: "Before the Spring Festival, our responsibility is to stabilize, and after the Spring Festival, our responsibility is to investigate. The processing team does not have to be established all the time, and it is also a relief for you." Thank you for your support of my work during this period.” Jiang Jin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This is what I should do, Mayor Hou." Through these few days of investigation, Hou Weidong had a preliminary understanding of the silk spinning factory.He is very cautious and has not expressed his true views on the silk spinning factory so far. He still has a few steps to complete: first, consult the vice governor Zhou Changquan, who is in charge of the enterprise in the provincial government and has the right to speak on policies; He waited until the handling office came up with the research report, but he didn't have much hope for the report from the bottom of his heart; the third is to verify and sort out the materials obtained in the past few days of discussions. After completing these three steps, he can make an accurate judgment on the silk spinning factory, which is also the basis for further decision-making. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Hou Weidong came to Zhu Minsheng's office.When he went up the stairs, he saw that the door of Zhao Chengyi's office was open, so he walked in directly. Zhao Chengyi saw Hou Weidong coming in, stood up, and said, "Mayor Huang is talking about things in Secretary Zhu's office, please sit here for a while." Liu Kun was sitting across from Zhao Chengyi's table. He was the mayor's secretary, and Zhao Chengyi was the secretary of the municipal party committee secretary. When they met, they were very polite to each other.At this time, seeing Zhao Chengyi enthusiastically making tea for Hou Weidong, he was forced to stand up too and said, "Hou, mayor, please sit down." went back. Hou Weidong sat on the sofa, took out "Lingxi Daily", and browsed casually.As the saying goes, no coincidence makes a book, and there is an article signed by Duan Ying on the first edition, entitled "Revisiting the Development Zone Seven Years Later".Seeing Duan Ying's name, Hou Weidong raised his head and glanced at Liu Kun's profile.Liu Kun's hairstyle has not changed for many years. It is fixed with mousse, neat and shiny, with soft and clear facial contours. He is a handsome young man, but he is a bit petty.He turned his eyes back from Liu Kun's silhouette to the newspaper. Duan Ying divided the development zones of Lingxi Province into four grades: one is the locomotive-shaped development zone, there are two, Lingxi Development Zone and Tiezhou Development Zone, and the other is There are six automobile-type development zones, including the Shazhou Development Zone; the third is the motorcycle-type development zone, including the Yiyang Development Zone; the fourth is the Niu-type Development Zone, including the Chengjin County Development Zone.Yiyang County Development Zone has always been a model of county-level development zones, and has been at the forefront of development zones for a long time. This time, Duan Ying was classified into the ranks of three types of development zones, which made Hou Weidong somewhat unexpected. When Zhao Chengyi refilled the tea for Hou Weidong, he saw that he was looking at this article intently, and said: "Secretary Zhu attaches great importance to this article and made special comments. I heard that this reporter named Duan Ying used to be in Yiyang Newspaper Office and Sha You have worked in a state newspaper, do you know Duan Ying?" Duan Ying is the eternal pain in Liu Kun's heart. When Zhao Chengyi mentioned this matter, he kept silent. Hou Weidong didn't mention the matter of Duan Ying either, saying: "The GDP of Tiezhou has increased significantly in the past few years, and it has a lot to do with the development zone. I feel a lot of pressure on my shoulders." Zhao Chengyi smiled and said: "The newspaper is still in Secretary Zhu's office. I have read his instructions and made comments on the construction of the southern new district. Secretary Zhu will personally give Mayor Hou the task." Liu Kun was disturbed by the word Duan Ying, and when he heard the conversation between Zhao Chengyi and Hou Weidong, he couldn't help but feel a huge gap.After years of hard work, he became the mayor's secretary, which was originally something to be proud of, but all his achievements were always eclipsed by Hou Weidong's light, which made him both disappointed and injustice. Following Mayor Huang Zidi out of the municipal committee, Liu Kun said casually: "Today I met Mayor Hou in Secretary Zhao's office, but he often reports to Secretary Zhu." Huang Zidi, from secretary to secretary-general, then deputy secretary to mayor, has been thinking about people for more than 20 years. Hearing what Liu Kun said at this time, he naturally understood the meaning behind it, snorted coldly, and got into the car.Seeing that Huang Zidi's expression was wrong, Liu Kun knew that the words just now were not the right time, but the words had already been spoken and could not be taken back. He could only sit in the co-pilot seat full of regret, thinking: "Could it be that Hou Weidong is really my nemesis? Will it always be unlucky for him to get together?" After going upstairs, Huang Zidi's expression was normal, and he told Liu Kun, "I'm going to go to various counties for a while to conduct a systematic survey. I will start with three districts and try to complete the districts and counties in one month. .” Liu Kun suggested: "Then go to Xicheng District first." Dongcheng District has just finished a strike at the silk spinning factory, and the team in the Southern New District is planning to adjust. It is a good choice to start from Xicheng District. Huang Zidi agreed with Liu Kun's suggestion and said, "Just inform Xicheng District that we will go to Xicheng District tomorrow. City survey." After Huang Zidi became mayor, it was the first time to conduct research in districts and counties.After receiving the notice in Xicheng District, District Party Secretary He Minwen did not dare to neglect, and called a meeting of the Standing Committee of the District Party Committee who was at home. The offices of the Municipal Party Committee, the Municipal People's Congress, the Municipal Government and the CPPCC are all located in Xicheng District, so Xicheng District is dubbed by the people of Shazhou as the District directly under the Central Government.In the later stage of Zhou Changquan's administration of Shazhou, the municipal party committee had passed a plan to relocate the municipal party committee, the municipal people's congress, the municipal government, and the CPPCC. After the plan was passed by the province, it was reported to the State Council in accordance with regulations.At this time, Zhou Changquan was transferred to work in the province, so no one followed up on this matter. Zhu Minsheng, the new secretary of the municipal party committee, realized the importance of the relocation later, and then re-followed the matter.At this time, the State Council has approved the Shazhou government office to change the location of the administrative region. As the leader of Xicheng District, He Minwen was naturally unwilling to let the four families relocate to the Southern New District, but it was beyond his control to decide the matter so far. He has been the mayor of the district for many years, and now he is the secretary of the district party committee. He still doesn't like to talk about long speeches, but prefers to talk about economic issues. With the relocation of the four major families, the municipal government’s investment in Xicheng District will gradually decrease, and a large amount of investment will be concentrated in the southern new area, so this survey is very critical. We need to do more projects while the district committee and the district government are not relocated. Need some money." "Next, I will assign tasks. The district committee office will take the lead to formulate a welcome plan. First, contact Section Chief Liu Kun to find out when to go to the city hall to meet Mayor Huang, which route to take, which points to inspect, and when to start.汇报，在哪里汇报，中午在哪里吃饭，吃中餐还是西餐，喝什么酒，中午是否需要休息，这些细节都应该弄清楚。”何敏文对区委常委、区委办主任道，“接待工作和外交一样，都没有小事，散会以后你就跟刘坤联系，尽量把工作做细。” “黄市长来视察，肯定要带着财政等几个要害部门的人，我们要大张旗鼓地要钱，理直气壮地要钱，合情合理地要钱。区政府这边要好好研究，找到合适的理由，尽快报给我和耀东区长。公安局要做好安保工作，等到路线图出来以后，要安排便衣和警力。 “市政管理委员会是新成立的单位，这一次要好好表现，把大街小巷扫得干干净净。沙州人都有打扫卫生迎客人的习惯，这不是作秀，是表达对客人的尊重，符合沙州传统。” 何敏文讲完，区长黄耀东道：“刚才何书记作了重要指示，讲得很清楚了，核心问题就是钱，市里欠区里的钱至少有一亿七千万，这一次重点就要谈这笔钱。” 会议结束后，刘坤就接到了西城区区委办的电话，道：“我再请示黄市长，等一会儿给你回电。” 刘坤来到黄子堤办公室，正好遇到了黄子堤走出门。 听了汇报，黄子堤道：“明天上午9点，调研的具体问题你去问蒋湘渝，我不管这些小事。” 晚上，黄子堤来到易中岭别墅，刚进门，易中岭和绢纺厂厂长蒋希东就迎了上来。见到蒋希东出现在院子里，黄子堤微微有些不悦，道：“蒋厂长，你也是老厂长了，怎么还能罢工？某些人磨刀霍霍，你偏偏还把脖子伸了进去。” 蒋希东讪笑道：“产品在市场上不对路子，现在厂里正在努力调整，我们不比小企业，小企业船小好掉头，经营机制灵活，我们要更换产品，得费不少工夫。” 黄子堤到易中岭别墅来玩，一来是里面花样多，二来是这里僻静而安全，因此并不希望见到无关的人，更不喜欢不速之客。此时见到蒋希东这个不速之客，忍不住瞪了易中岭一眼。 易中岭装做没有看见黄子堤的眼神，道：“蒋厂长带了些好东西，是从大山弄来的真资格野味，有好东西怎么能独享，所以请了黄市长过来品尝。” 蒋希东随着黄子堤和易中岭进屋，当黄子堤进卫生间时，他脸上的笑容便消失了。 山珍野味，确实是难得一见的好东西。黄子堤入口的山珍野味着实不少，蒋希东带来的野味虽好，却没有太多的感觉。 晚餐后，黄子堤去上厕所，易中岭跟了过去，道：“那对姐妹花晚上要过来，上次陪了你，她们还想。” 想着那夜的疯狂，黄子堤兴致提了起来，道：“这两丫头，有股子疯劲。” 易中岭嘿嘿笑道：“我又弄了些正宗东北虎骨，泡了一坛子好酒，等会儿放到后备箱，一天一杯，强身健体，效果显著。” 黄子堤心中已有些荡漾，可是想着蒋希东在此，他含糊地道：“我先回去了。” “那两姐妹到了，我开车来接你。” 黄子堤点了点头，道：“以后我过来时，别带外人过来，你是这么聪明的人，怎么会犯这种失误。” 送走了黄子堤，易中岭拉着蒋希东来到了楼上，两人关着门密谈。 “蒋兄要看到形势，凡是抱着国企大腿，最终都没有好果子吃。我曾经也是国企厂长，可是这个厂长在政府眼里就是一只母鸡，要鸡蛋时就过来摸摸屁股，榨干油水以后，一纸调令就剥夺了我们奋斗几十年的位置。” “这倒是实话，我们国企人的命运掌握在不懂行的笨蛋手里。” 易中岭倒了两杯葡萄酒，道：“为国企人干一杯。” 蒋希东接过酒，道：“干杯。” “我为了铜杆茹厂可谓呕心沥血，当年厂里效益好时，政府让我当人大代表，给我荣誉和地位，但是企业效益下滑，他们翻脸无情，差点把我送进监狱。”易中岭道，“蒋兄要解放思想，趁着还在位置上，多为自己留条后路。你把一条命卖给了政府，到时退休以后，谁又来理睬你？都是弃之若蔽履。” 蒋希东脸色黑中带着红，道：“易兄有什么高见？” 易中岭不急不躁地道：“我的关系你看到了，黄市长是我的铁哥们儿，我们不分彼此，可以说随叫随到。如今在沙州上有黄市长，内有你，外有我，我们哥俩联手，绢纺厂就可以变成我们的产业，到时天高任鸟飞，你何必把自己关在笼子里。” 蒋希东此时完全弄明白易中岭的意图，他故意装糊涂，道：“操作难度太大，搞不好会出大事。” “很简单，复制。我们成立一个新的股份制企业，你把绢纺厂的客户介绍过来，把业务骨干、机器设备转移过来，届时老厂死亡，一个新厂就诞生了。” 蒋希东的黑脸没有多少表情，易中岭继续鼓劲道：“现在各地都在采用这种手法，完全没有风险。老厂破产以后，业务骨干自然进了新厂，对他们来说也没有损失。到时新厂扔掉债务，只需要几年时间，可以重新占领岭西以及打人国内、国际市场。” 蒋希东道：“我没有这么多钱。” “既然是股份制，你的资源也可以算作股份，如今有黄市长撑腰，机不可失，时不再来。” “让我想一想。”蒋希东口气很是犹豫。 易中岭加了一把火，道：“你得抓紧，这一次绢纺厂罢工，市里对企业领导班子已经有了看法，如果你被调离现在岗位，那就太不划算了，干了这么多年，到时一无所有，太可惜了。” 蒋希东听出了其中的味道，仍然道：“让我再想一想。” 侯卫东在下班时，接到了陈曙光的电话，让他到省城聚一聚。尽管陈曙光已经不是省委书记秘书，可他是交通厅厅长，关系网深厚，侯卫东接到电话，二话没说，带上小佳，开着奥迪车直奔岭西。 金星大酒店对面的茶楼，陈曙光、朱小勇两家人都已经到了。小佳与方红线、蒙宁混得熟了，坐在一起，先谈衣服，再谈美容，然后就聊麻将。小佳早有准备，从小包里摸出两个小包，道：“这是两条薄围巾，花色还不错。” 方红线见是一个薄薄的小方盒子，也没有在意。当她打开盒子，却发现是挺大条的围巾，而且丝质细密，质地很不错。 她是识货人，知道这围巾价值不菲，在脖子上试了试，道：“很漂亮，我喜欢，谢谢小佳。” 蒙宁也挺喜欢这条围巾，道：“今天还要来个姐妹，我还是把围巾收起来。” 能进入这个圈子的人，非富即贵，小佳心里明白，却故意装做不好意思地道：“不好意思，我只想到了方姐和蒙姐。” 方红线道：“沙州要来新的市委副书记，是原来省委宣传部的，叫宁玥，我们经常走动，很好的姐妹。” 黄子堤当上市长以后，沙州市委副书记的位置便空着，沙州市的几个常委都想争夺这个位置，最终的结果是来了一位空降女士。 对于如此人事安排，侯卫东没有听到任何响动，略略吃惊，道：“宣传部宁玥，以前没有听说过。” 朱小勇道：“宁玥在省委机关还是很有名气，一直负责外宣工作，挺精明能干的女强人，我们都称她为宁夫人。不过，他老公不是岳不群，是省人民医院的医学博士。” 侯卫东暗道：“能和朱小勇、陈曙光混在一起的，当然也是精明能干的人物。”他心里琢磨着事，却并不多问。 过了一会儿，宁玥携其老公来到了楼上。 陈曙光道：“宁书记，我给你介绍，这位是沙州市副市长侯卫东。” 宁玥三十五六岁的样子，整个人看起来既雍容又从容，道：“我是久闻侯市长大名，最年轻的县委书记，最年轻的副市长。” 侯卫东道：“欢迎宁书记到沙州。” 宁玥对侯卫东的说法没有表示怀疑，能进这个场合的人都是各有关系，她的事并不是秘密，侯卫东知道并不稀奇。 她把身边的男人拉过来，道：“这是我家里那位，在省人民医院上班，这是年轻有为的侯市长。” 小佳没有想到沙州会来一位年轻的女书记，打过招呼，她暗道：“宁玥最多比我大四五岁，这些人也不知是怎么混上去的。” 她知道丈夫从乡镇最底层的办事员一路奋斗至此，过五关斩六将，既是自己努力的结果，又有着极好的机遇，这才走到副市长岗位，而宁玥这个女子年纪轻轻凭什么当了市委副书记？ 宁玥没有与方红线和蒙宁坐在一起，她大大方方地坐在朱小勇身旁，道：“我一直在省委宣传部工作，对基层情况不熟悉，还请侯市长多指教。” “岂敢指教，宁书记是省委机关下来的，见多识广，比我这种土八路强得多。”侯卫东暗道：“市政府这边除了姬程，多是本土干部，市委那边书记、副书记和组织部长都是空降干部，有些意思。” 宁玥很是健谈，与陈曙光和朱小勇分别聊了几句，又对侯卫东道：“我有个好朋友，在省报当记者，最近写了一篇《七年后重访开发区》，很有些影响，她以前在沙州报社工作。” “段英是张小佳的大学同学。” 宁玥有些惊奇地道：“岭西还真是小，段英先生和我的先生在一个科室工作，晚上请他们一起来吃饭。”她笑着对陈曙光道：“陈厅长，我给你多请了客人，段才女，省报美女记者。” 陈曙光潇洒地道：“记者是无冕之王，在交通系统有一句笑话，叫做防贼防记者，我开会时给他们纠正，交通系统矛盾多，更不能怕记者，而要主动出击，与记者们交朋友。” 总体来说，侯卫东对宁玥印象还不错，而且有陈曙光和朱小勇的关系，至少在市委这边会多了一个朋友，但是这个朋友是否可以信任，不仅要听其言，还得观其行。 晚餐以后，段英夫妻最先告辞。方红线喜滋滋地道：“蒙宁、宁玥和张小佳都是大忙人，很难凑在一起，今天聚齐了，晚上到我家打麻将，一个都不准走。” 侯卫东素来不喜欢打麻将，道：“我对麻将不感兴趣。” 方红线道：“我只是邀请女士，男人们自己去玩，给你们自由。” 朱小勇拱了拱手，道：“晚上把蒙宁留给红线，我约了集团几位老总喝茶，得先走一步，不陪诸位了。” 医学博士道：“我也得走了，明天有个手术，你们慢慢聊。” 侯卫东也不想跟着去凑热闹，道：“我到宾馆睡觉去了，你们慢慢聊。”他对小佳道：“你先送我回宾馆，然后再回来。” 上了小车，小佳坐在驾驶座上，侯卫东坐在副驾驶的位置，她一边开车，一边道：“刚才方姐说，宁玥是省委宣传部文明办主任。” 侯卫东没有在宣传口工作过，对省委宣传部的干部并不熟悉，隐隐想起在文件里看到过宁玥的名字，道：“一般情况来说，省文明办主任都是由宣传部副部长兼任，是副厅级干部。宁玥不是宣传部副部长，能担任这个职务，还真有些不一般。” 小佳道：“方红线看上去比蒙宁要厉害些，其实她没有蒙宁的心计，只要关系处好了，为人很热心豪爽，我可以向她打听宁玥的情况。” 侯卫东不由得夸了一句：“你的思维水平和观察能力已经达到了正处级干部水平。” “你老婆也不是笨蛋，没有吃过猪肉，我还没有见过猪跑，若是我削尖脑袋往上钻营，说不定还能进步。现在这生活我挺满足，把小囝囝教育好，比当官要强得多。” 凌晨1点，小佳回到了宿舍，洗浴以后，钻进铺盖窝里，缩在侯卫东温暖的怀里，道：“我问清楚了，宁玥的伯父和吴英、蒙豪放都是下乡知青，听说在中央某个部委任职，具体是什么职务我没有问出来，职务应该不低于蒙豪放。” 侯卫东立刻就联想到很久以前吴英说过的话，道：“以前吴英说过要请一位知青给墓地题字，看来就是指的这位大人物了。” “官场真复杂，我应付不来。”小佳的理想就是靠技术吃饭，尽管她已是官太太，还是主动与官场划清界限。 “这世上没有无缘无故的爱，官场也没有无缘无故的提拔，每一次提拔都可以找到背后的轨迹，宁玥就是到沙州镀金，是沙州的过客。” 小佳打了个哈欠，道：“不谈宁玥了，睡吧。”
