Chapter 13 A dead leader is an opportunity for promotion

Hou Weidong had just returned to the office when he met Yang Liu in the corridor.Seeing no one around, Yang Liu whispered, "Chairman Liu of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference has a sudden cerebral hemorrhage and is being rescued at the hospital." "What's going on? Come to my office." Hou Weidong, as Zhou Changquan's full-time secretary, is very sensitive to such important matters. "Secretary Gao and I just came back from the hospital. I heard that Chairman Liu got angry with Director Kong of the Finance Bureau because of the CPPCC office building. At 11 o'clock, he called several vice chairmen over for a meeting and called Director Kong a white-eyed wolf. , cursing and cursing, suddenly fell to the ground."

Hou Weidong quickly called Zhou Changquan.Zhou Changquan had two phone numbers, one of which was placed next to Hou Weidong, which was an open phone number, and the other phone number was only known to a few people.He reported the matter to Zhou Changquan in the most concise language. After Zhou Changquan listened to it, he said calmly: "I see." Hou Weidong secretly said: "It seems that Secretary Zhou has already got the news. Huang Zidi is with me. He didn't know it. It should be a letter from Hong Angbao. He reacted very quickly." He got up to pour water for Yang Liu, Yang Liu said naturally, "I'll do it myself."

She opened the tea pot and said with a smile: "I guessed that Director Hou was drinking Tieguanyin, or the old habit of the new management committee." Holding a cup of hot tea, Yang Liu warmed his hands and said, "After the Secretary-General talked with Guo Yongguo today, he seems to have cried. This person is actually quite talented, and the bad thing is his mouth. If you say something well, start with him. When it comes out of the mouth, it becomes yin and yang." Guo Yongguo used to run the comprehensive department of the municipal party committee, which is one of the key departments of the municipal party committee. There are many leading cadres who have come out of the general department. It can be described as slim.

"Character determines fate, and details determine success or failure. These two sentences make sense." Hou Weidong and Guo Yongguo are just acquaintances, and they have no enmity or deep friendship. He just feels a little emotional. After some gossip, Yang Liu left, and after a while, she turned back, holding a can of tea, and said, "This is West Lake Longjing. The Propaganda Department gave it to Secretary Gao when they went to Hangzhou to study. They said It is authentic Longjing." Hou Weidong was not polite, and said: "Longjing is still good, thank you." Two days later, Chairman Liu of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference died due to ineffective rescue.He is a veteran leader of Shazhou, and the Provincial Political Consultative Conference attaches great importance to it, and sent a vice chairman to express his condolences.Shazhou city set up a funeral leading group.Zhou Changquan is not in Shazhou, but in order to show solemnity, Zhou Changquan is still the leader of the funeral leading group, and Mayor Liu Bing is the deputy leader.

On the day of the funeral, when the Finance Bureau sent a wreath, Chairman Liu's son endured his anger and accepted the wreath, but placed the Finance Bureau's wreath in the most inconspicuous corner and blocked it with another wreath. Three days after the death of CPPCC Chairman Liu, Zhou Changquan returned to Shazhou from the United States.Huang Zidi, Hong Ang, Bu Haiyun, Kong Zhengyi, Lao Fang, Hou Weidong and others still went to Lingxi Airport to pick them up. Kong Zhengyi booked a table at the Jinxing Hotel in the provincial capital to clean up Zhou Changquan. After the group sat down in the hotel, Zhou Changquan scolded: "Old Kong, Chairman Liu has that kind of temper. He is an old comrade, and he will try to satisfy as much as he can. What are you trying to do with him?"

Although it was very cold in March and September, the temperature of the air conditioner in the room was quite high, and Kong Zhengyi's broad forehead was dripping with sweat. He said aggrievedly, "How can I dare to withhold the money from the CPPCC? This year, the three vice-chairmen of the CPPCC all got new cars." , Chairman Liu called me to the office again, and asked me to change another car for the office, and also specified an Audi, which was beyond the standard configuration. I asked if the city’s funds were tight, could I postpone the configuration, or buy a Buick, and the result was Chairman Liu was very upset, and said something with guns and sticks."

"In the end, I still violated the principle and agreed to provide an Audi for the CPPCC Office. If I knew Chairman Liu would do this, I would have agreed. It's not my money anyway, I'm saving it for the government." Kong Zhengyi said again , "Secretary Zhou, I suggest adjusting the system. In the future, which unit will buy a car will be decided by the city, and the Finance Bureau will only pay for it." Bu Haiyun said from the side: "Chairman Liu is the old mayor, everyone gives face, the CPPCC car is better than the government car. It is also difficult for the old Kong, all departments want to spend more money from the finance, and the finance money is only There are so many, this is a pair of eternal contradictions. Regarding the system, I think Lao Kong’s suggestion is reasonable.”

Zhou Changquan said with emotion: "Old Liu has gone like this, it makes people feel sad to think about it. The CPPCC has come up with a lot of good ideas for the development of Shazhou, and we must consider letting a shrewd and capable person take charge of the work." Speaking of this, he intends to Inadvertently glanced at Bu Haiyun. Bu Haiyun nodded and said: "Chairman Liu is the old mayor. The new chairman of the CPPCC must at least be the executive deputy mayor. This is in line with the tradition of the Shazhou CPPCC." Everyone has a comprehending expression. Hou Weidong pondered for a while, and soon understood: "Bu Haiyun is eyeing the position of the executive vice mayor. If Zheng Rulin, the current executive vice mayor, joins the CPPCC, he is very likely to become the executive vice mayor."

Most things in the world can be changed from bad things to good things as long as the angle is changed. This is in line with dialectics, and it is a kind of ability. After returning to Shazhou and resting for a while, Zhou Changquan went to visit Chairman Liu's family. Before departure, Hou Weidong called Chairman Liu's home in advance.Chairman Liu's wife heard that Zhou Changquan was coming home just after getting off the plane. She was very excited. She put down the phone, wiped her tears, and said to the comrades of the CPPCC Office who happened to be at home: "Secretary Zhou is a good person. Like some people, they would rather be a grandson when they need it, and treat our old Liu as a rag when they don’t need it.”

The Political Consultative Conference Office had worked a lot on the matters of the old Liu's family, and was so tired that it was unpleasant to hear these words. Hearing that Zhou Changquan was coming, he suppressed the resentment in his heart. When we met, Chairman Liu's lover held Zhou Changquan's hand and began to wipe away tears again, saying: "Secretary Zhou, if you were in Shazhou, my old Liu would not be like this. He was killed by petty anger. Secretary Zhou, you want Justice." The photo of Old Liu of the Political Consultative Conference was taken ten years ago. At that time, he was still the commissioner of the Shazhou area. The old Liu in the photo was full of energy and sharp eyes.

Zhou Changquan was very familiar with Lao Liu's demeanor. He held Chairman Liu's wife's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, my condolences. If there is anything, the organization will consider it." Hou Weidong stood beside him, thinking about the things behind the funeral all the time: "Chairman Liu is dead, if Zheng Rulin is transferred to the CPPCC according to Secretary Zhou's idea, and Bu Haiyun becomes the executive vice mayor, he can still go to the CPPCC again." The appointment of a deputy mayor will affect the whole body, at least a large number of cadres will change their positions because of the death of Chairman Liu." Coming out of Chairman Liu's house, Zhou Changquan was serious all the time, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Hou Weidong adhered to the principle of "talk less, see more", and didn't ask any questions, just watched the scenery along the street and passed by quickly.Back in the office, Zhou Changquan stood by the window, smoking a cigarette rarely.Hou Weidong made tea for him, put it on the desk, and then returned to his post. "Hello, Secretary Zhu, I'm Zhou Changquan, do you have time? I'll report on the recent work in Shazhou, and it only takes half an hour." Zhou Changquan called Zhu Jianguo, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee. Hou Weidong looked at the documents with his head down, and kept Zhou Changquan's phone call in his mind. This was not for eavesdropping, but for better work. After Zhou Changquan made the phone call, Hong Ang, the secretary-general, walked in and said, "Chairman Liu's lover wants to transfer her daughter to work in the tax bureau." "Where does her daughter work now?" "At the Transportation Bureau." Zhou Changquan was a little impatient, and said: "I just solved my son's problem, why are you talking about my daughter again? The traffic bureau pays well, and these people are not satisfied." After saying this, he changed his mind and thought of the old man who had been turned into ashes. Liu, old Liu used to be very majestic in Shazhou. When he stomped his feet, the ground in Shazhou would tremble. Now he is lying quietly in the cemetery, waiting for future generations to come to the grave during the Qingming Festival.As time goes by, fewer and fewer people visit the grave, and finally the cemetery will become a landscape, and no one will remember the once prominent identity of the people inside. Zhou Changquan had countless thoughts in his mind, and secretly felt a bit of sorrow for the death of a rabbit. He was silent for a while, and said: "Forget it, Lao Liu has made contributions to Shazhou, so let's do the request of the survivor." Hong Ang responded, out. Hou Weidong could hear the conversation clearly, and at his age, he naturally couldn't understand Zhou Changquan's state of mind. He thought to himself: "Leading children is leading children, and they have more choices than ordinary people. If ordinary people can come to the traffic bureau, they are ancestors. Burning high incense, but the children of leaders can easily jump from one good department to another." He thought again, "Fortunately, it is a market economy now, and people's choices are diversified. They can do business without being an official, otherwise Most ordinary people will never have the passion to fight, and can only live according to the predetermined track." While thinking about it, the phone rang again. It was Director Qiao from the Supply and Marketing Cooperative. Hou Weidong said politely: "Director Qiao, the time is not available tomorrow. Secretary Zhou has other arrangements, so change the time." Director Qiao of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative said: "The Spring Festival is coming soon. I would like to report to Secretary Zhou in advance about the organization of supply and fireworks during the Spring Festival. I would like to ask Secretary Hou to help arrange a suitable time." Hou Weidong wrote something down in his small notebook and said, "I wrote it down, and I will report it to Secretary Zhou later." Director Qiao hurriedly said: "Thank you Mi Hou, please, please call back if you can." Hou Weidong has another mobile phone belonging to Secretary Zhou Changquan in his hand.When Zhou Changquan came back from the United States, his figure appeared on the TV in Shazhou, and the mobile phone he was holding kept ringing. There are four counties and three districts in the whole city, and dozens of bureaus, and there are also units in Lingxi. If you interview a top leader every day, it will take half a year to go through the rounds.Zhou Changquan's time and energy are limited, so his full-time secretary is very important.The small notebook in Hou Weidong's hand records the phone calls of some bureau chiefs. He will selectively report according to Zhou Changquan's schedule. This is his responsibility and even more his right. He wrote down the telephone content of Director Qiao of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative in his notebook, but he was not going to report to Zhou Changquan immediately because Zhou Changquan had more important things to do. The next day, Zhou Changquan went to the Provincial Party Committee and reported to Zhu Jianguo, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee.He didn't stay in the province, he returned directly to Shazhou City, and went directly to Building No. 1 of the small guest house. Secretary-General Hong Ang has been waiting in Xiaozhao. After talking with Zhou Changquan in Building 1, he came to the front desk of Xiaozhao. When the leader was talking, Zhu Dajiang, the director of the small guest house, did not dare to get too close. When Hong Ang came out of Building 1, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "Secretary-General, I will open Building 3 for you." Among the tricks, Building No. 1 is used by Zhou Changquan, Building No. 2 is used by Mayor Liu Bing, and Buildings 3 to 6 are not used by regular leaders. Secretary-General Hong Ang is Zhu Dajiang's immediate boss, so he is particularly concerned about it. attentive. Hong Ang said very bluntly: "Director Zhu, don't think about opening a room for me all day long, I'll chat with Secretary Hou here. I'll check the venue at 1:30, don't put too many flowers, three pots are enough, Don't put the fruit, it's like a tea party." He said again: "Turn on the air conditioner to about twenty-three degrees, don't get too hot." After Zhu Dajiang left, Hong Ang went to the room where Hou Weidong often slept on the ground floor, sat by the window, looked at the budding plum blossoms outside the window, and said: "The most proud of the trick is the plum blossoms outside the house, without this With a few plum blossoms against the background, the trick is a very ordinary courtyard." Hou Weidong said: "It's really fragrant." Hong Ang stood by the window and looked at the plum blossoms for a while, and said: "'The sharp edge of a sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold'. The ancients and the modern people all like plum blossoms, which makes sense." Hou Weidong felt a little emotional when he heard Hong Ang's voice, but he was inconvenient to ask more questions. He just stood beside him and looked at the plum blossoms together by the window. At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Ma Yundong, chairman of the Provincial Political Consultative Conference, arrived in Shazhou on time. Zhou Changquan, Huang Zidi, Hong Ang and several vice-chairmen of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference greeted them at the intersection of the expressway, and then gave a work report in the conference room of the small guest house. First, the executive vice chairman of the Shazhou CPPCC reported on the work of the CPPCC, then Zhou Changquan, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, and finally Ma Yundong made a speech. From a procedural point of view, this is just a routine meeting. For the comrades present, these things are as smooth as the assembly line in a factory.But they knew in their hearts that what Ma Yundong really wanted to talk about was not at the venue.Sure enough, after the symposium ended, before the banquet started, Ma Yundong and Zhou Changquan went to Building 1 together, and the two sat there for about half an hour. After the mayor Liu Bing came back from Linjin County, the dinner officially started . At the dinner party, the atmosphere was warm and the host and guest talked happily. After Ma Yundong visited Shazhou, rumors began to circulate in Shazhou: "Zheng Rulin, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and executive deputy mayor, will be promoted to the chairman of the CPPCC, and Bu Haiyun, the deputy mayor, will become a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and executive deputy mayor." The news is undoubtedly accurate. Although the municipal party committee and the municipal government have secrecy agencies, these things that should be kept secret always penetrate layers of fog like X-rays, and the truth is announced to the public in advance. When Xiaojia went home and asked about this matter, Hou Weidong had a very good attitude and said, "It's too annoying to talk about business every day. Maybe this matter." Xiao Jia has long been used to his style, and said angrily, "As long as you keep your mouth shut, this matter has already been spread in all major organs of the municipal party committee." "If I don't say anything, I haven't violated discipline. At least I want peace of mind. Moreover, the less you know about the decision-making affairs of the municipal party committee, the better." Xiao Jia curled her lips and said, "I still have to open the back door for one thing. Our Director Zhang wants to pay New Year's greetings to Zhou Changquan before the Spring Festival. You have to go through the needle and at least provide accurate information." "We'll talk about this after the Spring Festival." Seeing Xiaojia's Jiuyin white bone claws that were about to stretch out, Hou Weidong hurriedly said: "For Xiaojia's obedient face, I will try my best to find opportunities." Xiao Jia reminded: "During the Spring Festival, which ones do you want to pay New Year's greetings to, first draw up the list, if you miss one, you will offend others." Hou Weidong thought about it. In addition to following Zhou Changquan to pay New Year's greetings, he also needed to pay New Year's greetings to Zhu Yan, Jiang Yulou and other leaders.Due to the large number of households that need New Year greetings and the tight schedule, he really couldn't arrange it, so he couldn't help but look sad, and cursed: "Fuck, it's the Spring Festival of the dog day." Real life is very real indeed.During the Spring Festival, officials without strength can only clean the snow in front of their own doors, celebrate the Spring Festival with their families, and enjoy family happiness, while powerful officials seize this favorable opportunity and start to move around.If you are active, you may get nothing; if you are inactive, there will be no pie in the sky.The Spring Festival has become a day that is more tiring than working overtime. I'm afraid of the Spring Festival, but I still can't escape the Spring Festival, the time is like the wind, and the calendar is turned upside down.Before the New Year gathering in Shazhou City, Hou Weidong was very busy. He had just finished the preparatory meeting for the gathering and was sitting in the office to rest when he received a call from Ji Haiyang. "Weidong, I'm Haiyang." Ji Haiyang is usually very polite, but when he dealt with Hou Weidong in the past, he usually didn't call himself "Haiyang", but called himself "Ji Haiyang". The word "Ji" was removed to appear equal And kind. Hou Weidong has always maintained considerable respect for the old leader Ji Haiyang in terms of language and attitude, and said: "Secretary Ji, what instructions do you have?" Ji Haiyang laughed and said, "Weidong, how dare I tell you." "Secretary Ji, you are the eternal leader in my heart." "The New Year Tea Party in Yiyang County, please come back to attend when you have time." "Secretary Ji, the guests invited to the tea party are all Yiyang people who have worked outside of Yiyang, or accomplished comrades who have worked in Yiyang. I came back just to make up for it, forget it." Ji Haiyang said bluntly: "Your position is different. Secretary Ma specifically explained that you must be invited back." Hou Weidong asked: "Who are the city leaders who want to participate?" "Director Gao Zhiyuan, Yi Zhongda and other leaders from the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee are all coming back, and Zhang Mushan, Li Jing and other company bosses are also invited." Hearing these names, Hou Weidong decided not to attend Yiyang's group meeting. Now his position is key, but his position is not high. It is really nondescript to participate in Yiyang's group meeting as a section chief, and it will make people feel ignorant if it is spread.It was inconvenient for him to reject Ji Haiyang directly, and said, "Secretary Ji, if Secretary Zhou doesn't have any specific arrangements, I'll come over." He spoke very eloquently, not only not offending Ji Haiyang, but also flexible. Back home at night, Hou Weidong felt a little strange after entering the house. The curtains in the room were drawn, a big red candle was lit on the table, and the smell of stewed meat came from the kitchen.Xiaojia held an apple in her hand, ate half of it, and walked out of the study with a happy face, watching Hou Weidong silently. Hou Weidong scratched his head and asked suspiciously, "What anniversary is today?" Xiaojia is a very bourgeois woman. She usually likes to talk about romance. She always remembers various dates in her head, such as the day when she first met, the day when she made love for the first time, her wedding day, birthday, and graduation day. , school day. During these anniversaries, Xiaojia will always make the family more romantic. If Hou Weidong forgets these anniversaries, she will be angry.Xiao Jia chewed an apple carefully and said, "From now on, this day will also be regarded as an anniversary." Hou Weidong was still a little puzzled, and said, "Just tell me what kind of anniversary it is? Let me save my brain cells from guessing." "I went to the hospital today." Xiao Jia said half of the sentence. "What, are you sick?" Xiao Jia put down the apple, stepped forward to hug Hou Weidong, and said, "You idiot, I'm pregnant, this is the best New Year's gift." Hou Weidong was so happy that he wanted to hug Xiaojia, but Xiaojia pushed him and said, "Don't touch the child." Hou Weidong didn't dare to hug as if he was listening to the imperial decree. He squatted down, put his ear on Xiaojia's abdomen, and said, "Hey, little guy, can you hear what Dad said? From now on, I will tell you stories and read Tang poems every day, so that you Growing up in a cultural environment.” With a serious face, Xiao Jia said, "I heard that children can hear their parents' voices in their womb. You must insist on telling stories to your baby every day." Hou Weidong remembered the story he heard at the dinner table, so he said with a smile: "Let me tell you a joke. A pair of twins who were still in the mother's womb chatted one day, and the boss said, our dad is so kind. Let's bring yogurt to drink. The second child nodded and said, Uncle Liu next door is the worst, last time he came, he brought some yogurt and put it in a plastic bag." Xiao Jia smiled and said, "You men, what are you thinking about all day long. I became Secretary Zhou's secretary and learned so many pornographic jokes." This story also reminded her, saying, "I heard that in the first few months of pregnancy, you can To have sex, you just have to pay attention to your posture, it's good for pregnant women." Xiaojia's pregnancy made Hou Weidong both happy and a little nervous. Thinking about the heavy task of New Year's greetings during the Spring Festival, he was also worried. Seeing that the Spring Festival is coming, the Spring Festival gathering in Yiyang County is arranged a few days before the Spring Festival. On February 1, Ji Haiyang called early in the morning to invite Hou Weidong to attend the Spring Festival group meeting in Yiyang County.Hou Weidong answered the phone, but did not check Zhou Changquan's work arrangement. He said in a regretful tone, "Secretary Ji, Secretary Zhou has an arrangement today. I really can't leave. I'm very sorry." Ji Haiyang expressed his understanding, and sighed: "All snakes bite people. Being a secretary is very hard. I don't have freedom and I don't have my own life. It's not a problem in the long run. But it's just the past two years. A new world." Putting down the phone, Hou Weidong read the documents for a while, and at 9:27, he came to Zhou Changquan's office. At 9:30, Hou Weidong came to the small meeting room with Zhou Changquan's notebook and water cup.Deputy secretary Huang Zidi, organization minister Zhao Dong, and secretary general Hong Ang are all waiting here. Today we will study a group of cadres in advance.In Shazhou, according to Zhou Changquan's request, the organization department should first propose a plan for the appointment of cadres. Before the secretary meeting, Huang Zidi, Hong Ang, and Zhao Dong had to study it together, and waited until the plan was mature before going to the secretary's office meeting.At this time, Liu Bing, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee and mayor, faced a relatively mature employment plan. Hou Weidong also followed Zhou Changquan for half a year, and he understood this matter: "The secretary of the municipal party committee has the power to employ people, so he controls the overall situation. All things must be implemented by people in the end. If you control people, you will naturally control things." Zhou Changquan, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, firmly grasps the power of personnel affairs, so he enjoys high prestige among the cadres in Shazhou. What he says is a military order, and everyone strictly implements it. Best pass to do business in state. In the afternoon, Yang Teng, Huang Zidi's secretary, called: "Chief Hou, do you have any plans for the evening? I heard that you are going to be a father. Secretary-General Zeng arranged for you to celebrate." Hou Weidong only told the driver Ma Bo about this, he did not expect Zeng Yong to know so soon. Zeng Yong is the deputy secretary-general of the municipal party committee. He is in charge of the personnel department and several other departments. Hou Weidong had to save face and said, "Thanks to Secretary-General Zeng and Section Chief Yang. If Secretary Zhou has no important arrangements, I will treat everyone to dinner." Yang Teng said: "You are welcome, just call me if you have accurate information." After hanging up the phone, Hou Weidong thought: "Is there any other arrangement for Secretary Huang today? Why is Yang Teng so free?" When he got off work, Zhou Changquan asked, "Xiao Hou, what are your plans for tonight?" Hou Weidong smiled and said, "A deputy commissioner has come to the Maoyun area, and the city government is receiving him. There are no other guests." Zhou Changquan showed a relaxed smile and said, "It's really rare, I can finally go home and have a meal today." He called his family: "I'm going home for dinner tonight, don't do anything, just make me some porridge and stir-fry old pickles." He said to Hou Weidong with great interest, "Modern people eat fish and meat every day. This is a very unhealthy way of life. We are using our bodies to carry out the revolution. I really want to disarm and return to the fields earlier and live a peaceful pastoral life." Hou Weidong flattered: "Secretary Zhou, you can't think like this. Shazhou is in a stage of great development. Without you at the helm, it will deviate from the course." Zhou Changquan laughed and said, "I'm sober, the earth will rotate the same without anyone." After sending Zhou Changquan home, Hou Weidong called Yang Teng and said, "I have time tonight." Yang Teng said on the phone: "I'm really sorry. Secretary-General Zeng has something to do temporarily. Before he left, he told me to accompany you to have a meal. I mean, it's rare that both of us are free, so we might as well put the comprehensive department and the information department together. All comrades are called, and we will advance the regiment a year." "Okay, there is no problem. It depends on whether Dewey and Yangliu are free?" Hou Weidong said again, "I will host the dinner tonight. Don't argue with me." Soon Yang Teng made an appointment with Dewey and Yang Liu, and Yang Teng took the initiative: "I know a place to eat fish, which is authentic Yangtze River fish. The environment of that place is also good. We have dinner together in the comprehensive department, and the grade cannot be lower." At 7 o'clock, they drove two cars run by the municipal party committee to the Yangtze River Yufu.Entering the yard, Hou Weidong saw another Audi car with a provincial government pass. Yang Teng didn't know the license plate number, so he walked in excitedly, stood in the lobby and said to the welcoming lady, "We have booked a room for the municipal party committee." Hearing Yang Teng's high-spirited voice, Hou Weidong laughed secretly: "This Yang Teng usually looks quite stable, why is he so awesome in front of the waiter? He is obviously run by the municipal committee, but he has to be called the municipal committee. It’s a slight miss, a thousand miles.” When the waiter heard the word "city committee", he immediately said respectfully, "Gentlemen, please come inside." When he arrived at the "Yangtze River" private room on the second floor, Yang Teng walked to the front. He pushed open the door of the Yangtze River private room, and suddenly found that the person facing the door was Huang Zidi, Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee.Yang Teng was taken aback, and hurriedly backed away. Hou Weidong pushed him from behind, and said in a low voice, "Don't back." Yang Teng was reminded only then, and hurriedly said, "Secretary Huang, Secretary-General." Zeng Yong sat on the side with his double chin straight. He saw Yang Teng, Hou Weidong, and De Wei standing outside the door. He understood a little, and said, "Yang Teng, are you eating here too?" Hou Weidong was quick-witted, and immediately picked up the conversation, saying: "We, Corey, had a reunion dinner in advance. We heard that this place is delicious, so we came here." While speaking, he had already seen clearly that besides Huang Zidi, there were also people sitting inside. With Zeng Yong, Yi Zhongda, Yi Zhongling and the two fat men. Huang Zidi waved and said, "Weidong, since you're here, let's have a drink. You know these two guests from Yiyang." Hou Weidong said boldly: "I'm here to respect the leaders." After a round of toasts and six drinks, Huang Zidi said with a pleasant smile: "Wei Dong is the number one drinker in the Municipal Party Committee Office. He has been exercising in the villages and towns, and he can't hold his alcohol. You just sit at this table. Director Yi and Mr. Yi also Not outsiders." Hou Weidong arched his hands and said, "Today we have a small gathering in Corey, so I won't disturb everyone." Back in his room, Yang Teng's face was gloomy, and he lost all the excitement just now.He is Huang Zidi's full-time secretary. Huang Zidi and Zeng Yong didn't take him with them when entertaining guests, which made him very embarrassed and made him feel a lot of pressure. If a full-time secretary doesn't gain the trust of the leader, he will be sent away sooner or later . Hou Weidong walked back to the restaurant where the general department had a party. Yang Liu asked the waiter to bring a few boxes of hot juice first, and said, "Give a box to each of the men. Drink some juice to nourish your stomach before drinking." Hou Weidong drank six glasses of white wine in one breath, his stomach was hot, he took the juice, drank most of the bottle in one breath, and joked: "I used to only know that men and women can work together without getting tired, but now I realize that men and women can drink together without getting drunk." Most of the comrades in the comprehensive department are pens, and Dewey is a graduate of the Chinese language and literature major. His thinking is very quick. Yang Liu didn't show weakness, and said: "Men and women match, men are relaxed and women are tired." Dewey asked with a smile, "Why? Men and women are equal in the comprehensive department, and everyone does the same job." Yang Liu spoke very sharply, and countered: "Every time you drink alcohol, you all look sluggish the next day. The responsibility of cleaning the office falls on the shoulders of the lesbians. Of course, the lesbians are more tired." Dewey argued: "Our office is cleaned by a special person. When did you get tired again?" Yang Liu and Dewey had an argument, Hou Weidong was chatting with several drivers, Yang Teng pretended to be something, so he ate his head dishes, and don’t play with everyone. The driver, Ma Bo, was watching TV while eating. He exaggeratedly said: "The backup dancer has no clothes on, and his figure is too hot." Ma Bo is a famous mute around Zhou Changquan. . Hou Weidong glanced at the TV program in a blink of an eye. This is a typical dance and singing program. A male singer in national costume is expressing his love affectionately. Dance for national singers. Yang Liu glanced at the TV screen and lowered his head to eat the vegetables.Hou Weidong's gaze was glued to the TV screen, and he recognized one of the backup dancers. Although he had only met Zhu Yingying once, Zhu Yingying left a deep impression on him, and he recognized it immediately. If the folk singers are ignored, Zhu Yingying still dances very contagiously, gracefully, sexy and melancholy, but the two cultures are rigidly connected, making the two arts neither fish nor fowl. Looking at Zhu Yingying, he couldn't help but think of the intimate contact that night. If Bugao hadn't come forward and made him naturally resist, maybe he would not be able to resist the amazing elasticity of Zhu Yingying's waist and abdomen. "Lingxi's degree of marketization is too low, and the shortest way to make a lot of money in business is to do business with the government... Bugao's career is in full swing. In addition to his diligence and talent, there is also a faint shadow of Bu Haiyun behind him...Yi Zhongling is A native of Shazhou, who has a deep understanding of Lingxi business, it seems that he has his eye on Huang Zidi, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee." Hou Weidong's thinking was like a starving bird, flying randomly in the sky, from Zhu Yingying's waist to Bugao's enterprise, from Bugao to Yi Zhongling.He had always been very wary of Yi Zhongling, and the occasional scene he saw today made him quite uneasy. On February 6, the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee made a decision: Zheng Rulin, a member of the Standing Committee of the Shazhou Municipal Party Committee and executive deputy mayor, was appointed as the chairman of the Shazhou CPPCC; Bu Haiyun, a member of the Standing Committee of the Shazhou Municipal Party Committee and executive deputy mayor, was appointed as the deputy mayor ; Zheng Rulin was very indifferent to this appointment. He was too old. He had served as deputy mayor for two terms, and it was a good arrangement to be the top leader of the CPPCC. On this issue, he had no objection to Zhou Changquan. Bu Haiyun is also very satisfied with this. He has been the director of the Construction Committee for many years, and he was already a little older when he became the deputy mayor. Now that he can become the executive deputy mayor, he should have no problem mixing with the main hall before retirement. The deputy mayors who ranked after Bu Haiyun also had no objection. Once Zheng Rulin left and Bu Haiyun became the executive, it might be their turn to do such a good thing in the next step. Soon after Du Zhengdong came to Shazhou, he became the head of the Shazhou Public Security Bureau.Lao Fang, the former director of the Public Security Bureau, was transferred to the Municipal Procuratorate this time as the Chief Prosecutor.It is normal for the main leaders of several units in the political and legal system to transfer frequently, and Lao Fang can accept this appointment. This series of changes is also good news for the directors of Shazhou City. Zheng Rulin left, leaving a seat for deputy mayor. They all have the possibility of promotion. Only Shazhou Mayor Liu Bing was extremely dissatisfied with this arrangement.Zheng Rulin is very personable, he has always dared to speak out in front of the secretary of the municipal party committee and the mayor, he has outdone Zhou Changquan, and he has also made Liu Bing unable to step down several times, but he handles things fairly and does not engage in cliques. In all fairness, he is a very good person. Deputy Mayor.And Bu Haiyun is a figure in Zhou Changquan's inner circle. As the deputy mayor, he often ignored the mayor's words, but he took Zhou Changquan's words as an imperial edict. Now, this guy has become the executive deputy mayor, making Mayor Liu Bing such as Throat pierced, extremely uncomfortable. In fact, Liu Bing knew Zhou Changquan's intentions a long time ago, and he did some work in advance. In this round of arm wrestling competition, Liu Bing suffered from being dumb. At the Standing Committee meeting on February 7, Director Zhao Dong of the Organization Department proposed the first cadre adjustment plan in 1999. Mayor Liu Bing looked indifferent. After the meeting ended, he turned around and left. Zhou Changquan wore glasses to read the materials. When the mayor Liu Bing left, he sat in his seat and continued to read the materials. Seeing that Liu Bing had left, the other members of the Standing Committee relaxed and began to talk to each other. Hou Weidong can clearly recall the first time he met the mayor Liu Bing. At that time, he had just arrived in Shazhou City, and he was personable and high-spirited. is straight down. After reading the materials, Zhou Changquan signed his name, put his pen on the table, and said to several members of the Standing Committee: "The plan for a year lies in spring, and the development of Shazhou is moving from winter to spring. Rushed to the second place in Lingxi, this is the ardent hope of the four million people in Shazhou. If we miss the good opportunity of reform and development, Shazhou's development will lag behind by ten or even twenty years. This group of people here are the sinners of the people of Shazhou." He said loudly: "Next year today, we will still have a meeting here, and then we will have a celebration wine together." Zhou Changquan's impromptu speech was sonorous, powerful and extremely provocative, and immediately mobilized the atmosphere. Huang Zidi, Ji Daolin, Hong Ang, Bu Haiyun, Zhao Dong and others followed Zhou Chang's body, talking and laughing happily. meeting room. Hou Weidong took the materials signed by Zhou Changquan, and was the last one to walk out of the venue. A thought suddenly flashed in his mind: "Ma Youcai is also turning the steering wheel. During Zhu Yan's era, he followed the mayor Liu Bing closely. Now he is looking for Zhou Changquan's confidant Huang Zidi." "It seems that to be a cadre, you must learn dialectics, otherwise you will not be able to see the way forward. You should not only bury your head in the cart, but also look up at the road. This sentence has been taught by countless ancestors with blood and tears. It is profound." The materials signed by Zhou Changquan were summarized as they walked.
