Chapter 6 the benefit of someone above

The Provincial Department of Finance is majestic. The outer wall is gray marble and the middle is a glass curtain wall. Even if outsiders don't see the sign hanging at the door, they can know that this is a rich unit just from the outside. When Hou Weidong drove the car to the Finance Hall, several cars happened to be entering the Finance Hall. He followed closely behind the cars and entered the compound without being blocked.Although the guards at the gate didn't recognize the small car with the Shazhou license plate, the Bluebird was considered a good car, and they followed the director's car in, thinking that the Bluebird belonged to the head of some district or department, and it was a regular car. Raise your hands in salute.

Following the group of people in front into the hall, Hou Weidong didn't want to follow too closely. Seeing that there was a toilet on the ground floor, he walked in and naturally distanced himself from the group of people in front. The toilets in the toilets are all very high-grade, shining brightly, not only has no bad smell, but also has a faint scent of sandalwood, which is a bit fresher than the private rooms of karaoke halls. After getting out of the toilet, Hou Weidong walked towards the elevator very calmly, without looking at the guard sitting in the lobby registering.The guard also treated Hou Weidong as nothing, not even interested in asking a question.In the elevator, Hou Weidong looked at the floor distribution map, only the schematic diagram of the ninth floor was missing, which meant that the head office of the Department of Finance was on the ninth floor. He secretly smiled and said, "This is a real cover-up."

There were many flowers and plants in the corridor on the ninth floor, and it was very quiet. He saw a few doors open on the left, so he walked over, passed a door that was concealed, and saw Jiang Yulou who was concentrating on writing. Jiang Yulou didn't look up when he heard the knock on the door, and said, "Come in." "Director Jiang, hello." Deputy director Jiang was very surprised when he saw that it was Hou Weidong. His immediate reaction was that Hou Weidong came to ask himself to do something again.For the sake of Zhu's father and son, he still saved some face for Hou Weidong, put down the pen in his hand, and said, "What's the matter?" He secretly said, "What's the matter with the office, that someone came in directly? "

Hou Weidong smiled all over his face, and said: "Thank you Director Jiang, the Maoyun Thermal Power Plant has received the payment, which is really timely, otherwise the coal mine will have to stop production, and more than 170 workers will be laid off. Secretary Zhu said Director Jiang is the most heart-warming, I really don't know how to thank him." Jiang Yulou was reading the State Council's bulletin at this time, and when Hou Weidong mentioned coal mines, he remembered the series of briefings on coal mines and asked, "Xiaohou is the director of the new management committee, why is he still opening a coal mine?"

Although he came to visit without saying hello, Jiang Yulou's attitude was better than expected. This made Hou Weidong heave a sigh of relief. In the future, I can only go out to do business. I have accumulated some savings after doing business for several years, and bought the Huofo Coal Mine, only to realize that I have fallen into a trap. If I continue to lose money for a long time, my second brother-in-law and the others have to be laid off again.” The expression on Jiang Yulou's face softened, and he said: "Coal mines are a good project. This year, the State Council issued two notices to close and rectify small coal mines. They have a firm attitude and great determination. The main purpose is to reverse the situation of oversupply of coal. I guess The coal market will gradually improve."

Hou Weidong had already seen the news from newspapers and documents, and he pretended to be very excited, saying: "Great, since the State Council has issued such a policy, I'll go back and persuade my second sister and second brother-in-law to cheer them up." He changed the subject and said, "I heard from Mr. Zhu that Director Jiang is a master of Go. I have a set of Go, which is not bad. Putting it here is purely a secret investment." After speaking, he put it in his bag. The Go game was taken out. Jiang Yulou was condescending, watching Hou Weidong's performance calmly, and secretly said: "Hou Weidong knows how to repay you, not a white-eyed wolf."

He is well-known for his fondness for playing Go, and many people have given him some high-end Go.When Hou Weidong took out Go, he didn't pay attention to it. He just thought that Hou Weidong was quite sensible, but he didn't care about Go.When Hou Weidong left the office, he looked at Go and was surprised to find that it was a jade chess. Hou Weidong finished his work smoothly, and his mood was completely relaxed.He got on the expressway and ran all the way. After seeing the road sign that was two kilometers away from Shazhou, he remembered what Zhu Yan had entrusted, and drove off the expressway.

After entering Shazhou, he called Principal Yang of the school for the deaf and mute, asked about Zhu Mei's recent situation, and then drove straight to the school for the deaf and mute. When they came to the school for the deaf, Principal Yang stood at the door with Zhu Mei. Zhu Mei wore a plaid dress that middle school students often wear. She had a quiet demeanor. If she didn't speak, she would be like a normal and pure little girl. Principal Yang stood side by side with Zhu Mei, and he stretched his neck to look at the road. During the Spring Festival of 1998, the new administration gave some money and goods to the school for the deaf and dumb, which solved Principal Yang's urgent need. Therefore, Hou Weidong's treatment skyrocketed.After receiving the call, Principal Yang and Zhu Mei went to the school gate together.

After saying some words of thanks, Principal Yang showed embarrassment again, and said, "I ask for money every time we meet, I'm so sorry. Zhu Mei used a computer, and her drawing skills and homework improved very quickly. Other deaf-mute children are very envious , the school also wants to set up a computer room. I applied to the Education Committee, but I didn’t agree. They said that the Shazhou No. 1 Middle School was equipped with computers only this year, and the deaf-mute school will wait. The children in the deaf-mute school are different from normal people, poor , blame me, the headmaster, for being incapable and unable to get money."

Hou Weidong respected Principal Yang and asked, "How many computers do you need?" "Forty units." Principal Yang also felt that he had opened his mouth like a lion, but for the sake of the students, he still had the cheek to ask for help. "I'm trying to find several companies to sponsor. Forty computers are not a small amount, and it may take some time." Although Hou Weidong felt a little embarrassed, he readily agreed. Principal Yang was overjoyed to see Hou Weidong so forthright, and said: "It's good to be kind, good to be kind, I thank you on behalf of the children."

Hou Weidong made a few simple gestures to Zhu Mei, and then Zhu Mei got into the car. Zhu Mei's computer was damaged, which made her very anxious. She sent several faxes to her father, trying to fix the computer.Zhu Yan explained the matter to Hou Weidong. Looking at the car that drove away in a hurry, Principal Yang stroked his shattered hair and sighed, "If only Zhou Changquan's children were also deaf-mute children!" Take the computer to a repair shop and it takes two hours to fix it.This computer is Zhu Mei's best friend. Without the computer and the Internet, two-thirds of the door to the outside world is closed.Zhu Mei was very concerned about this matter. She heard that it would take two hours, and she even felt a little impatient. The shop is not big, and there are some computer equipment.The owner of the shop is a young guy, not tall, only about 1.6 meters tall, wearing thick glasses, and a mustache around his lips, which is not actually a beard, just a circle of light fluff.He was not good-looking, but his hands and feet were nimble, and he took apart the computer three times and five times. Hou Weidong asked casually, "Is this your shop?" "Graduating from a technical school does not include distribution, we can only set up a shop to find a bowl of food." "How is business?" "There are more people using computers now, and they can barely maintain it." The young man said modestly. He borrowed money from six relatives to open this small shop. Very soon, after more than a year, the cost was recovered, and now the deposit has reached five figures. Zhu Mei naturally couldn't hear the conversation between the two, she stood quietly beside Hou Weidong.The young man couldn't help taking a few peeks at Zhu Mei, who was as pure as water. Zhu Mei didn't pay attention to this young man, she cared more about the computer.Hou Weidong wrote on the paper: "It's still early. I heard that there is a Dexter in Shazhou. It's a foreign thing. I invite you to have a meal." Zhu Mei wrote: "Good." Dexter's food didn't suit Hou Weidong's stomach at all, while Zhu Mei ate it with relish, and the tip of her nose was still slightly sweating.Her face was facing a TV, and there was a person who looked like a Hong Kong and Taiwan singer singing and dancing.Two girls the same age as her were standing next to the TV, staring intently at the TV screen. When Zhu Mei saw this scene, the food on the table immediately lost its taste.At school, everyone had the same experience, and she was in a calm mood. At this time, seeing her peers who were concentrating on watching TV, the huge gap suddenly ruined her good mood, and she immediately fell into great depression and depression. Hou Weidong didn't notice Zhu Mei's psychological changes. Listening to the music, his mind began to wander randomly. For a while it was the meeting with Jiang Yulou, for a while it was about the Huofo Coal Mine, and for a while it was about the next step. Zhu Mei stood up and wrote: "I want to take a car to the highway." Only then did Hou Weidong notice that there was something wrong with Zhu Mei's expression. He felt a little pity for Zhu Mei, and couldn't bear to refuse her request. Before getting on the expressway, Zhu Mei stood up, leaned on the sunroof, and looked at the world outside the car. Hou Weidong was startled, and slowly leaned the car to the right, and finally stopped. He took out a small book and wrote on it: "Dangerous, get down." Zhu Mei waved her hand and refused.Seeing that Zhu Mei was very stubborn, Hou Weidong had to start the car again, but slowed down. Faced with the constantly blowing wind, Zhu Mei's hair was fluttering, she opened her mouth wide and shouted vigorously, but she couldn't make any sound.Tears fell down one after another, and were blown to the ears by the wind, and then turned into crystal dew, which flew directly into the mid-air, shattered into small particles, and disappeared without a trace. "Facing the wind and shouting loudly, you can vent your unhappiness." This is the method taught to Zhu Mei by the netizen "Zon of the Wind", and she is going to try it today. In the computer repair shop in Shazhou, the young man has already repaired the computer.In fact, this computer was just a small problem with the program, but he went to great lengths to dismantle the computer in order to make customers pay more.After Hou Weidong and Zhu Mei left, he quickly installed the computer, installed a few applications, and the computer returned to normal.He happily hummed a ditty, and sang "Easy Earn Three Hundred Dollars" to the tune of "Without the Communist Party, there would be no new China." At this time, there was nothing in the store, so he turned on his computer, but did not receive any letter from "Quick Talk Xiao Cui". "Kuaizui Xiaocui" is a mischievous little girl. He has been in contact with her under the screen name "Zhizi of the Wind" for more than a month and has become a netizen. "Son of the Wind" is short and unremarkable in appearance. He is unremarkable in real life. He has a low self-esteem from the bottom of his heart and has never been in love.When he met "Kuaizui Xiaocui", his fire of love was ignited, and judging from the content of the conversation, "Kuaizui Xiaocui" was a little girl without much social experience, so his confidence doubled, and he asked Xiaocui several times When they met, Xiao Cui used various excuses to refuse, which made "Zon of the Wind" both sweet and distressed. Hou Weidong drove on the expressway for more than an hour. When he was approaching the crossing of the Lingxi Provincial Expressway, suddenly the rear police lights flashed, and a dignified voice sounded from behind the Bluebird: "People standing in front, get back in the car. .” This is a police car from the Highway Management Office. It was on a routine inspection, and when it saw someone standing in front of the skylight, it chased after it. Zhu Mei stood in front of the skylight blowing the wind for an hour, her tears dried up, and she felt happy. Naturally, she couldn't hear the shouts from the police car behind, and she still lay down in front of the car window, enjoying the joy brought by the speed to the fullest.She seems to be a bird that has broken out of the cage, flying in the blue sky to her heart's content. Hou Weidong heard the shouting from behind, pulled over slowly, patted Zhu Mei's leg with his hand, and wrote "Come down quickly, the police are here" in the small notebook. The police car stopped behind the Bluebird, and a young policeman got out. His face was full of anger, he patted the hood with his hand, and said, "Get out of the car and take out your driver's license." He walked to the window, his eyes closed. Look at the little girl in the car.This little girl's appearance and clothes are very pure, not a weird little sister. The policeman was a little surprised, and said to Zhu Mei: "You are very dangerous like this, do you know?" Zhu Mei only knew that the policeman was talking to her, but couldn't hear what he was saying, so she smiled slightly. The police figured out what was going on, scolded Hou Weidong a few words, and finally told him: "It's too dangerous, don't do this next time." Back in Shazhou, I took back my computer, and it was 6:30. Zhu Mei wrote on the paper: "The school bath time is from 5:30 to 6:00. I need to find a place to take a bath." Seeing that Zhu Mei had already turned into a tabby cat, Hou Weidong wrote, "Go to my house." After buying a full set of clothes at Shazhou Department Store, Zhu Mei followed Hou Weidong to Xinyuelou.While Zhu Mei was taking a shower, Hou Weidong was watching TV outside when the phone on the table rang. "Director Hou, I'm Yang Liu." After hesitating for a moment on the phone, Yang Liu said, "Director Hou, you know Secretary Ji very well, can you help me? I don't want to work in the new management committee anymore." "what happened?" Yang Liudao: "Yesterday, the organization department issued a document to appoint Yi Zhong as the deputy director of the new management committee. I don't want to work in the new management committee." In Yang Dajin's era, Yi Zhongcheng was once the director of the office of the new management committee, and Yang Liu was the deputy director of the office.After Hou Weidong took charge of the new management committee, he kicked Yi Zhongcheng to the research office and made Yang Liu the director of the office.From then on, Yi Zhongcheng hated two people in the new management committee, the first was Hou Weidong, and the second was Yang Liu who replaced him. Hou Weidong was well aware of these things, so he didn't ask any more questions, and said clearly: "Which department do you think of? Pick whatever you want, and Secretary Ji still has to give me some face." Yang Liu didn't expect Hou Weidong to be so straightforward, his eye sockets became hot, and tears fell out: "In front of Director Hou, I don't want to hide it anymore. Since I want to transfer, can I transfer to Shazhou?" "If you can't go to the municipal party committee and the municipal government, you can go to other municipal departments, but you don't have a job. Would you like to?" "Yes, my office director is not considered a job." "I'll give you a formal answer tomorrow." In the new management committee, Yang Liu is the most capable assistant. Her current affairs are directly related to Hou Weidong, and Hou Weidong agreed to Yang Liu without hesitation. After putting down the phone and sitting in the living room for a while, Zhu Mei came out of the bathroom. Her hair was wrapped in a towel, and her thin face was slightly pale. She went into the living room and wrote: "I'm hungry." This little girl, who looks like a lotus, is naturally isolated from the real world because she is born deaf and dumb, but she has a different kind of beauty. Hou Weidong glanced past Zhu Mei's face, took out a small notebook, and wrote: "What do you want to eat? I'll take you to eat. Can you eat spicy food? Eat Chongqing Jianghu cuisine." Zhu Mei nodded and wrote: "I have never eaten Chongqing cuisine, give it a try." Chongqing cuisine can be seen everywhere in Shazhou. Hou Weidong found a moderately decorated restaurant not far from Xinyuelou, and ordered a plate of Nanshan spicy chicken and a few home-cooked dishes. Nanshan spicy chicken has more pepper and chili than chicken. The very small pieces of chicken are hidden in the forest of chili, and you have to use chopsticks to search hard to find them.Although it is troublesome to eat, the taste of this dish is really good, spicy and spicy, which is close to the temperament of Chongqing Water Wharf. In her more than ten years of life, Zhu Mei was like a flower in a greenhouse. As she grew older, her desire to see the world became stronger and stronger.Today I followed Hou Weidong out to play for a long time, which is a very bold move.She ate the spicy chicken for a while, and her mouth was so hot that her mouth was full of sweat, and there were beads of sweat on the tip of her nose. While eating happily, suddenly there was a loud "boom" more than 100 meters outside the door, and a lot of glass in the restaurant was shattered.Hou Weidong and Zhu Mei sat in the back of the restaurant and were not affected, but the earth-shattering noise still made Hou Weidong startled. Zhu Mei glanced out the door unconsciously. Soon, sirens blared, and the police set up a cordon to surround the explosion site.Hou Weidong's blue bird was parked next to the restaurant. Fortunately, there was a bus in front of him, and he was not injured. One side of the bus was broken, and the cabin was seriously deformed. Hou Weiguo rushed over. He was wearing plain clothes and wandering around the periphery with a cold face. First he saw the familiar Bluebird car, and then he saw Hou Weidong standing in the crowd looking towards the explosion site, and a thin and handsome man standing beside him. The little girl secretly said: "Who is this girl? Why haven't I seen it before?" After realizing that it was an explosion, Hou Weidong took a look at several cars that had been blown up into a mess. Hou Weidong gasped and called out his luck. Seeing his brother's puzzled eyes, he quickly explained: "This is the daughter of Secretary Zhu. Mei, deaf-mute." He wrote again in the small notebook: "This is my elder brother, Hou Weiguo." Zhu Mei wrote politely: "Hello, Uncle Hou." Hou Weiguo nodded to Zhu Mei, and then said to Hou Weidong: "Hurry up and drive away. There was an explosion. Fortunately, no one was killed." Looking at the crowd of onlookers, Hou Weidong said: "Why did someone cause an explosion in Shazhou? It is very fast to connect with the international community." Hou Weiguo said in a low voice: "I guess it is a matter of the mine. In order to grab resources, it is almost like a gangster. .” The continuous mountains at the junction of Shazhou and Maoyun are rich in non-ferrous metals and coal, and the reserves are not small.In the past few years, the market for coal mines has been low, but the market for non-ferrous metals has been rising steadily.Most of the people who drive high-end cars in Shazhou City are mine bosses from mountainous areas. These small mountainous bosses who were poor a few years ago can drive BMWs and Mercedes-Benzes as soon as they wake up. In response to the old saying, misfortune and good fortune depend on each other. Because of mining to make money, these bosses were watched by all kinds of people, and troubles continued. When Hou Weiguo saw that the bombed car was a BMW, he guessed it was the mine boss. "A few days ago, the leaders of Maoyun went to Shazhou to discuss matters related to non-ferrous metals. Secretary Zhu also attended the meeting. I am doing security work." Hou Weiguo glanced at Zhu Mei and said, "Secretary Zhu is in Maoyun It's the third in command, in your current situation, you might as well go to him." Hou Weidong said: "Maoyun's situation is very complicated. I won't be too late to go there after Secretary Zhu's status is stabilized." It was late in the evening when Zhu Mei was sent back to the deaf-mute school. When they parted, Zhu Mei wrote: "Today is a beautiful day, thank you big brother." She called Hou Weiguo Uncle Hou and Hou Weidong Big Brother, which is also interesting. After playing with Zhumei for a day, Hou Weidong was in a relaxed mood, but his body was a little tired. When he returned to the Crescent Tower, he began to take a bath. While soaking, he suddenly remembered a detail: when the earth-shattering explosion sounded, After that, Zhu Mei unconsciously glanced in the direction of the explosion. "Does Zhu Mei still have some hearing? Is there any hope of recovery?" Hou Weidong then thought in his heart, "What a shrewd person Zhu Yan is, and Dean Jiang is a doctor with excellent medical skills. If Zhu Mei It can be cured, it must have been cured long ago.” He buried this thought in his heart. Since Monday, Hou Weidong has been in Lingxi and Shazhou.On Friday, he returned to Yiyang County.When his figure appeared in the office building of the Science and Technology Commission, Director Xiao Ning, who was staying in the office, immediately called. Comrades who were outside, shopping or going home to sleep sneaked back to the Science and Technology Commission. Hou Weidong handed over the construction of the agricultural scientific research base to Zhou Yongtai, and handed over the daily work of the agency to Director Xiaoning. He was happy to be at leisure. When he came back, he saw the status quo of the agency and didn't care about it. He drank tea and read newspapers leisurely. Remembering Yang Liu's entrustment, he called Su Mingjun: "Sube, are you free tonight? I invite you to dinner." Su Mingjun smiled and said, "Have you made up your mind to transfer back to Shazhou?" Hou Weidong said bluntly: "I will not move for the time being, but I want to ask Brother Su for help. Yang Liu, the office director of the new management committee, is a cadre I promoted. Now she is not going well in the new management committee. She wants to be transferred to Shazhou. See Is there a suitable position?" Su Mingjun pondered and said: "The office of the Municipal Party Committee is recruiting, and it wants a girl. Is Yang Liu a girl? How about writing an article?" "She is a college graduate recruited by me, and she is an excellent office director." Su Mingjun has an unusual relationship with Hou Weidong. He didn't use an official tone, and said, "I'm going to ask Huang Zidi. Huang Zidi has now been promoted to be the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee. As long as he nods, this matter will be done." He is the executive deputy director of the Organization Department. When Huang Zidi was the deputy secretary-general, the two had helped each other, so even though Huang Zidi had been promoted from secretary-general to deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, Su Mingjun still had the confidence to ask him out for dinner. Hou Weidong said happily: "It's great to be able to invite Secretary Huang out. I visited him with Secretary Zhu before, and I don't know if he remembers me." "You know Secretary Huang, so it's easier to handle. I'll tell Huang Zidi about Yangliu's situation first. If he has time in the evening, you can bring Yangliu. It's an interview." When Yang Liu heard that he might meet Huang Zidi, member of the Standing Committee of the Shazhou Municipal Party Committee and Deputy Secretary, and Su Mingjun, Executive Deputy Director of the Organization Department at night, he became nervous and said, "Director Hou, I'm worried that I won't be able to pass the test. I don't know what to do." Hou Weidong said something he used to say in Shangqinglin: "People are dead and their eggs are upside down, and they will not die for thousands of years. We are all human, so don't be afraid of these officials." Yang Liu had also been with Hou Weidong for more than a year, and he seldom heard him swearing. At this moment, when he suddenly heard Hou Weidong swear, he felt very at ease. Soon, Su Mingjun called. Knowing that they had made an agreement with Huang Zidi, Hou Weidong and Yang Liu came to Shazhou ahead of schedule without any delay. The dinner was arranged at the Shazhou Hotel, and Hou Weidong greeted him in advance: "Yang Liu, don't worry about tonight's expenses." Yang Liu insisted: "Do things for me, don't let Director Hou spend money." Hou Weidong said: "You rely on your salary to eat, how many times can you invite guests? Don't argue with me, I can still reimburse you." Although the Huofo Coal Mine put him under a lot of financial pressure, such things as entertaining guests are still trivial matters. He definitely won't ask the Science and Technology Commission to reimburse him, but just said so verbally, so as not to burden Yang Liu. Yang Liu stopped arguing and said, "Thank you Director Hou." Huang Zidi and Su Mingjun came to Shazhou Hotel together.Huang Zidi saw Hou Weidong who was standing at the door to greet him, and without waiting for Su Mingjun's introduction, he said with a smile: "I also said that I would go to Maoyun to see Brother Zhu Yan, but I couldn't spare the time. After I've been busy for a while, Xiao Hou will accompany you I go." Hou Weidong said: "Listen to Secretary Huang at any time." Seeing Huang Zidi's happy face, Su Mingjun knew that the matter was almost done, and he introduced: "This is Yang Liu, the office director of Yiyang New Management Committee, and a group of college students recruited by Xiaohou, who have a good writing skills He has a strong comprehensive coordination ability." He has been the executive deputy director of the Organization Department for many years, and his ability to observe people is still good. From Yang Liu's temperament, appearance and expression, he deduces that Yang Liu's personality characteristics are similar to the real situation. Huang Zidi had a bit of leadership airs towards Yang Liu, and said slowly, with a half-smile: "Working in the municipal party committee has high requirements for the quality of people. If the quality is not up to you, you will feel very difficult in life. Out of responsibility for the organization, but also for the You are in charge, I have to test you, you find a quiet room, and write a briefing about our meeting, half an hour, is it enough?" His question may seem simple, but it can basically tell a person's overall quality. One is the writing skills, the second is the logical thinking ability, and the third is the refining ability.This refining ability is a very important ability to work in the municipal party committee, because many meetings are normal work meetings, and the secretary of the municipal party committee needs to find out the bright spots from these ordinary trivial matters, which is also a very important ability. During the new management meeting, after Yi Zhongcheng became emotional, he was unwilling to bear any responsibility, big or small.Over the past year, most of the large and small articles of the New Management Committee have been written by Yang Liu.Yang Liu has a good foundation and she has received practical training at work. She was not too flustered by Huang Zidi's sudden exam. It only took about ten minutes for Yang Liu to write the briefing.The title of the briefing she drafted was "Strengthening scientific and technological work and implementing the strategy of strengthening the county through science and technology". Huang Zidi read the briefing, and said: "The topic selection of the briefing is not bad, and the writing skill is also good, but it is not considered a top-notch work, and it barely passes." When Yang Liu heard this kind of evaluation, she felt very nervous. Su Mingjun was very familiar with Huang Zidi, and understood what he meant, and said, "Yang Liu, when you arrive at the municipal committee, you must study more and work hard to improve your skills." "I must strengthen my studies, strengthen my self-cultivation, and improve my quality." These words are often written in half-year summaries and year-end summaries, and when Yang Liu said them seriously, Huang Zidi, Su Mingjun, and Hou Weidong all laughed . After dinner, Su Mingjun said: "Secretary Huang, it's still early, arrange some programs." Huang Zidi likes to play mahjong. Many people in Shazhou official circles know this, but most people only hear about it. Only a few people are qualified to sit with Huang Zidi to play mahjong.Hearing Su Mingjun's suggestion, Huang Zidi nodded and said, "It's better to fight at the Finance Bureau, the environment there is good." Before coming, Hou Weidong had told Yang Liu that after dinner, he would definitely play mahjong, so she didn't have to participate then.At this moment, Yang Liu saw Hou Weidong's wink, and said goodbye to Huang Zidi and Su Mingjun. When we arrived at the Caishui Hotel, the bureau chief, Lao Kong, was already waiting in the lobby downstairs. He was short and fat, but very dignified, and a tall man sat beside him respectfully.When Huang Zidi and others appeared, Lao Kong jumped up like a ball. When Hou Weidong saw the old Kong who greeted him downstairs, his heart moved, and he said to himself: "The last time I went to the Caishui Hotel to play cards, Huang Zidi was the secretary-general, and Director Kong was waiting for him in Juxian Pavilion. Now Huang Zidi has become the deputy secretary. Director Kong Just go downstairs and wait in the lobby, these people are really real." Hou Weidong followed Zhu Yan to the Caishui Hotel, but Kong had long forgotten about him. He heard that he was the director of the Science and Technology Committee of Yiyang County, so Kong shook hands with him warmly.Old Kong is the God of Wealth in Shazhou, and the director of the Yiyang County Science and Technology Committee is really not a person in his eyes, but this person came with Huang Zidi and Su Mingjun, so Old Kong paid more attention to him. Hou Weidong's contact with Huang Zidi this time is to serve Yangliu on the one hand, and to enhance his relationship with the upper class in Shazhou City on the other hand.This period of experience made him understand a truth: Under the current system in Lingxi, officials are appointed, and he must be responsible to the superior who appointed him. A good relationship with the superior is the most important thing for an official's promotion of. In Zhu Yan's era, Hou Weidong only appeared in front of everyone as Zhu Yan's entourage. This time, he independently exercised the mahjong power and competed with Huang Zidi, Su Mingjun, Lao Kong and others.He grasped a principle, and rarely played against Huang Zidi's cards. At 12 o'clock, the sound of mahjong on the top floor of the Caishui Hotel dissipated.Hou Weidong lost a lot, Su Mingjun basically kept his capital, Lao Kong lost miserably, and Huang Zidi took it all. Hou Weidong and Su Mingjun went back to the Crescent Tower together, got out of the car, and walked to the atrium while talking.Su Mingjun said: "It doesn't mean much for you to be the director of the Science and Technology Commission. Either you go to the Municipal Party Committee or Maoyun. You have to make up your mind early. You are now twenty-seven, and you will be thirty in a flash. If you reach three If you can't get a deputy county post in your teens, your development will be slow in the future." Hou Weidong deliberately kept a low profile, saying: "Subu has too high demands on me, and I will be satisfied if I can reach the county position." Su Mingjun shook his head and said, "You have good conditions and started early, so you should make another leap while you are young. As long as you seize the opportunity, not to mention deputy county officials, even city-level cadres have hope. The key is to look at your own ideas. " After sending Su Mingjun away, thinking about his own affairs, Hou Weidong tossed and turned on the bed, feeling a little insomnia.
