Zhu Yan, secretary of the Yiyang County Party Committee, has high requirements for the staff around him. During his tenure as secretary of the county Party committee, he served three secretaries.The first one was too flexible, well-rounded, and not very loyal; the second one was highly educated, smart, and a little bookish, and later went to graduate school at Peking University with his ability; the third one was Hou Weidong. Ji Haiyang, member of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee and Director of the County Party Committee Office, objected to the use of Hou Weidong. The main reason was that Hou Weidong had a history of bouncing votes in Qinglin Town.If such a person became the secretary of the county party committee, he might cause trouble.It's just that Zhu Yan somehow had a good impression of Hou Weidong, so he had no choice but to beat Hou Weidong in the car today and told him the basic rules of being a secretary.

After Ji Haiyang finished speaking, the car entered the county party committee guest house. The county party committee guest house is a very ordinary courtyard, the houses and walls were built in the early 1980s. After Deng Xiaoping's speech on the southern tour in 1992, the county redecorated the internal facilities of the small yard, spending nearly one million yuan. The renovated county party committee guest house still looks ordinary on the outside, but the interior has reached the level of the provincial party committee guest house, which can be described as a failure.There is an unwritten rule in the county party committee office: "Only Shasha city-level leaders and those who are in charge of finance, land, construction, transportation, etc. can live in the county party committee guest house. In principle, senior leaders who are not high enough will be arranged in Yiyang Hotel."

Hou Weidong followed Ji Haiyang, walked around a forest, and saw several single-family courtyards. There was a low wooden fence outside the courtyards, and the wooden fences surrounded the red brick houses.The red brick house is a typical matchbox building, it does not look simple, it looks clean, simple and majestic. After Ji Daolin, member of the Standing Committee of the Shazhou Municipal Party Committee and secretary of the Disciplinary Committee, entered the room, the waiter hurried over to make tea, and then left quietly.Only Ji Daolin, Zhu Yan, Zhao Lin, the deputy secretary in charge of the organization, and Qian Zhiguo, the secretary of the County Disciplinary Committee, were left in the room.

Ji Daolin looked serious, and said: "Recently, the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection have received many reports, reflecting serious problems such as You Hong, director of the Yiyang County Public Security Bureau, acting as a protective umbrella for gangsters. Secretary Changquan attaches great importance to this matter. Made a special comment." The instructions are very simple: Comrade Daolin is requested to handle this matter. If the report in the letter is true, he must fight hard to get rid of the evil.The font of the last four words was enlarged significantly, and the strokes flew out like a kitchen knife, shooting at the person who read the letter.After Zhu Yan read the instructions, Ji Daolin said: "According to Secretary Changquan's instructions, the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, the Procuratorate, and the Public Security Bureau have dispatched a joint investigation team to secretly enter Yiyang. After investigation, the situation reflected in the letter is basically true."

The joint investigation team entered Yiyang but did not contact the county party committee. Zhu Yan realized the seriousness of the problem and immediately stated: "The Yiyang county party committee resolutely implements the instructions of Secretary Changquan, and will not show mercy to a black apple like You Hong." Ji Daolin nodded, and said: "You Hong has worked in the public security system for a long time, has a deep network of connections, is highly vigilant, and has strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities. In order not to startle the enemy, this case will be tried in a different place. Let You Hong come here now. We will impose shuanggui on him first."

If this case is a nest case, the county party committee will be very passive, but it happened suddenly, Zhu Yan has no room for maneuver.He furrowed his thick eyebrows, and called You Hong in a calm voice: "You come to the county party committee's small guest house right away." As the secretary of the county party committee, he has absolute authority in the county, and he can ask his subordinates to meet at any time, even in the early morning, even if it is raining and snowing, he never needs any reason and never explains.You Hong, director of the County Public Security Bureau, naturally knew Zhu Yan's rules. After receiving the call, he hurried to the county party committee guest house. Since Zhu Yan called in a normal tone, he never thought it was a trap.

Entering the county committee compound, You Hong saw the county committee office Ji Haiyang, Liu Tao and others in the yard, and casually greeted him, "Old Ji, why are you standing in the yard? Are you free tomorrow? I'll come to you. The police car from the police station It’s almost scrap iron, not to mention performing official duties, it’s going to fall apart on the road, we need to get some new cars.” At this time, Ji Haiyang knew that the situation was not good, so he calmly said: "If you want to get a car and find the Finance Bureau, what's the use of asking me?"

"As long as Secretary Zhu agrees to distribute the car, how dare the Finance Bureau not pay?" You Hong walked into the room with a smile.Soon, his roar came from inside the house: "Why do you double-check me? I want to see Secretary Zhu!" He has been the chief of the Public Security Bureau for many years, and his roar is very powerful. There are four people in the investigation team, one from the discipline inspection committee, one from the procuratorate, and two from the police.They had already planned. Seeing that You Hong was agitated, two strong policemen from the Municipal Bureau walked over quietly and firmly controlled him.You Hong quickly stopped his needless struggle and just kept sneering.

Ji Daolin, Zhu Yan, Zhao Lin, and Qian Zhiguo sat silently in the conference room on the second floor.After the staff of the Commission for Discipline Inspection went upstairs to make a report, Ji Daolin said: "Transfer You Hong to Shazhou immediately, and search his home and office according to the procedure." Hou Weidong and other leading secretaries have been downstairs all the time. It was the first day that Hou Weidong followed Zhu Yan as the secretary of the county party committee office. He did not expect to see such an astonishing scene. When he turned to look at Ren Lindu, he was also dumbfounded.

After dinner at the county party committee guest house, Ji Haiyang specifically told Hou Weidong: "Wait a while and you take Secretary Zhu's car, remember to take the co-pilot seat and help carry the handbag." After Ji Haiyang explained a few words, he left on his own, leaving Hou Weidong alone in the courtyard.He intentionally left some details unexplained. If Hou Weidong has understanding, he will naturally think of these small details. When Hou Weidong first became a secretary, he was a little confused about what he should do and what he shouldn't do, so he couldn't ask in detail at this time, so he stayed by Zhu Yan's car.

After sending Ji Daolin away, Zhu Yan's smile disappeared completely, his face was livid, and he ordered Hou Weidong: "At 9 o'clock tomorrow morning, please come to my office with Secretary Zhao and Minister Liu." This incident will definitely cause an earthquake in Yiyang's officialdom. As the secretary of the county party committee, on the one hand, he must eliminate the influence, and on the other hand, he must make good use of this incident to turn bad things into good things. Since it was the first time serving Zhu Yan, Ji Haiyang did not explain in detail. Hou Weidong knew that he wanted to send Zhu Yan home, but he didn't know about these small details whether he opened the door for Zhu Yan when he got off the car, or whether he would send Zhu Yan to the door. I don't know, so I carefully and nervously observed Zhu Yan's every move. When getting out of the car, Hou Weidong was about to open the door for Zhu Yan, but Zhu Yan had already got out of the car, and his movements were not slow. After getting off the car, Zhu Yan didn't hand over the handbag, and Hou Weidong followed behind him.When he reached the doorway downstairs, Zhu Yan stopped and said, "I live on the third floor, you come up with me today, and I will send it to the doorway later." Coming down from the third floor, Hou Weidong was relieved to think back on his actions of the day, and found that nothing went wrong.When he got home, he immediately called Ren Lindu, the county party committee office, and Yang Na, the organization department, to convey Zhu Yan's instructions. While taking a shower in the bathroom, recalling the experience of the past half a day, Hou Weidong thought to himself: "Zhu Yan is just a county magistrate of the seventh rank, but it makes people feel like accompanying a king like a tiger. It’s better to be a businessman.” Then I thought again, “Being a businessman also has difficulties. Take Qinglin Stone Field as an example. Qin Dajiang died and Zeng Xiangang’s house was destroyed. It’s true that snakes bite people. Each has its own difficulties.” Before going to bed, he set the alarm clock to 7 o'clock.There are dreams all night, all of which are scenes of You Hong being escorted into the car. In the morning, Hou Weidong got up before the alarm rang. He secretly said, "I couldn't wake up before. Why did I wake up so early today? It seems that people are really adaptable." Wash your face, brush your teeth, go to the bathroom, drink milk, and eat bread. This set is over, and the time has just arrived at 6:30.When he went out, he deliberately took two packs of Jiaozi cigarettes, this is to make friends with the driver Lao Liupan, obtain information, and adapt to the secretary as soon as possible. After getting into the car, Hou Weidong threw a pack of Jiaozi cigarettes to Lao Liu, and asked, "Where does Secretary Zhu usually have breakfast?" Jiaozi Cigarette is a new good cigarette, which is more expensive than Hongtashan. It has gradually replaced Hongtashan as the first-class cigarette in Shazhou.Old Liu was smoking a jiaozi cigarette, and the expression on his face became richer, without the silence he had when we first met, and said: "I wish the secretary gets up early, I will do Tai Chi for a while, and then I will have breakfast at home, and I will be out at 7:50. " Sure enough, at 7:50, Zhu Yan walked out on time. Hou Weidong waited at the doorway, took the handbag, and followed closely behind Zhu Yan.When he got to the car, he hurriedly stepped forward and opened the car door. At the same time, imitating the appearance on TV, he put his hand on the top of the car door to prevent the leader's head from hitting the car door. "Did the notice come out?" Zhu Yan didn't need to ask this question originally, but Hou Weidong was a novice after all, so he was not too relieved. "Secretary Zhu, I was notified last night." "Yeah." Zhu Yan didn't say anything more. At 9 o'clock, Zhao Lin, deputy secretary of the county party committee, and Liu Mingyang, head of the organization, came to Zhu Yan's office on time.Ji Haiyang is a member of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee and the director of the County Party Committee Office. He needs to implement the tasks set by the leaders. He sat aside with a notebook in accordance with the Yiyang County Party Committee practice. Hou Weidong made the tea and was about to leave.Zhu Yan said: "Hou Weidong, sit down and listen." Zhu Yan cut to the chase and said: "You Hong has been slapped with double regulations, and he will definitely not come back. The purpose of inviting the two of you today is to study the candidate for the police chief. I have two requirements. First, this person must understand the law. If he is a layman, It can't adapt to the current legal situation; second, this person must have a murderous look and be able to control the situation. Yiyang's economy has developed rapidly in recent years, and hooligans and hooligans have also become active in society. .” Liu Mingyang has been in the organization department for many years and is very familiar with the cadres in the county. At this time, he is not thinking about the most suitable candidate, but guessing the ideal candidate in Zhu Yan's mind. Promotion within the Public Security Bureau?" Zhu Yan categorically denied it, and said: "You Hong has been in charge of the Public Security Bureau for so many years, and several deputies have never reported the situation to the organization. Even if they have no problems, they are not qualified politically and must not be reused." Liu Mingyang went through the leading cadres of the political and legal system in his mind, and proposed two candidates who are closer to Zhu Yan: "There are two suitable candidates, one is Zhang Zhang, the deputy secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, and he is from a professional background. , has worked in the court, has a diploma and practical experience; the second is Shangyou, the deputy chief prosecutor of the procuratorate, he is a soldier, and has served as the deputy chief prosecutor for many years, with many ideas and strong ability." Zhu Yan knit his eyebrows together, then slowly stretched them, and said, "Shang You has a personality, does Lao Zhao have any other candidates?" Zhao Lin said: "No." The candidate in Zhu Yan's heart was Shang You, so he made a decision on the spot and said, "Hang Hai, notify Shang You immediately, and I want to talk to him in person." He then said to Liu Mingyang, "I'll leave you to deal with formalities and procedures. Grasp this matter quickly." When Hou Weidong heard Shang You's name from the side, his heart twitched.Two years ago, he was brought to the procuratorate by Shang You and others. Not only was he interrogated tiredly, but he was also given an old punch.Now that Shang You has become the chief of the Public Security Bureau, and Zhu Yan personally selected him, Hou Weidong is in a complicated mood. Shang You was listening to the case at the Prosecution Section when he suddenly received a call from the County Party Committee Office. He heard that the County Party Secretary Zhu Yan had summoned him. "Commodity Inspection, Secretary Zhu is waiting for you in the office." Hou Weidong greeted Shangyou when he saw him. Shang You had a pretty good memory, he was taken aback when he saw Hou Weidong, and then said, "Have you been transferred to the county committee?" "It was just called." The expression on Shang You's face remained unchanged, and he said: "This is a great thing, when you are free, I will treat you to a drink." The conversation lasted only half an hour, and Shang You didn't expect that he would suddenly become the chief of the Public Security Bureau. Thinking about the chaos in the County Public Security Bureau, he was full of worries, happy and worried at the same time. Hou Weidong sent him out, and his address changed accordingly, saying: "Director of Commerce, Committee Ji Standing Committee is waiting for you in the office. He still has some specific matters to exchange views with you." Shang You originally wanted to explain a few sentences about his unhappiness in the procuratorate last time, but he swallowed the words, just stretched out his hand, shook hands with Hou Weidong, and said politely: "Secretary Hou, if you have anything to do in the future, just speak up." He has worked in Yiyang's political and legal system for many years, and he knows that the Public Security Bureau is Chi Xiaowang Baduo. If he wants to do a good job, he must get Zhu Yan's support.Hou Weidong's official position is not high, but his position is very important. He naturally wants to make friends. As for the unhappiness in the past, he can only find ways to make up for it in the future. Hou Weidong was punched by the procuratorate a few times, and he was very angry at the time, but at this moment and at that moment, he happily accepted the olive branch thrown by Shangyou, and said: "The merchant bureau is polite, and I will take care of you in the future." , this matter also exists. Watching Shangyou walk into Ji Haiyang's office, Hou Weidong thought to himself: "The chief of the public security bureau is an important figure in the county, but he took the initiative to show his favor to me today. The idiom "fox fakes tiger prestige" is most suitable for a little secretary like me. but." When he was in Shangqinglin, he always had a smiling face in front of the director of the Qinglin police station for the explosives in the gravel yard, and secretly provided a lot of convenience to the Qinglin police station, gasoline was calculated in tons, and gifts were given during the New Year Also quite rich.Now that Shang You, the head of the Public Security Bureau, is a friend, many things are easier to do. This is a by-product of power. Although this power is attached to the secretary of the county party committee, it can also generate a lot of energy.Because of this, once a person enjoys the pleasure brought by power, he is unwilling to give up easily, and will be even more disappointed after losing it.
