Chapter 10 X. Standing Committee

Shi Cunshan drove Duan Yufen away, and Ding Nengtong and Yixue took a rare walk together, and the two walked slowly along Qingnian Street hand in hand.Every time you go to a small square, there will be the sound of gongs, drums and suona, and the big Yangko has subtly penetrated into the lives of Dongzhou people.The eldest wife and the younger daughter-in-law, with three bends, nine movements and eighteen postures, with every gesture of hand and foot, are full of various styles, and the hearts of the people watching are turbulent and confused. "I can communicate. I'm used to staying in Beijing. Don't you feel that Dongzhou is like a big castle?"

"Xue'er, don't look at the big Yangko soil, but the soil has a charm, and the smell of the soil is stronger than that of stinky tofu." "Dongzhou is indeed more earthy than the smell of stinky tofu. It's so strong that people can't stand the smell. It's really time to change to another place." "Xue'er, why don't I find a way to transfer you to Beijing so that I won't be single all day long." "What's so good about Beijing? I think you've stayed in Beijing for two or three years, and you've become like Beijing oil. You can communicate. I want to immigrate with my son for the sake of my child."

"where to?" "Go to Canada. Several colleagues of our TV station have sent their children to study in Canada. You have seen a lot of world in Beijing. Please find a way for your friends in this field!" , not at all mentally prepared. "Xue'er, I think you have a good job. You should be cautious about immigration. Besides, you and your child are gone. What should I do?" "Either you just resign and come with us." "No, no, I did a good job in China, what a pity to resign!" "I don't care, anyway, you have to find a way to get me and the child out."

"Xue'er, let me think about it carefully." As the saying goes, a long absence is better than a newlywed, Yixue thinks a lot about men, but Ding Nengtong is too tired, it seems that the public food is not enough, but women are used to coax, and coaxing women is also Ding Nengtong's forte. Tonight Yixue was extraordinarily gentle, like a little lamb, the two of them lay on the bed, Yixue held Ding Nengtong's stick in his mouth and refused to let go, Ding Nengtong was finally burned like dry wood and swelled like a rolling pin, As for stuffing it in, Yixue cried out in pain.

The 5th Dongzhou International Yangko Festival encountered Waterloo for the first time. The purpose of organizing the Yangko Festival is to "set up a Yangko stage and perform an economic opera." There are not many big projects, and the agreement is only signed a few hundred million yuan. Wang Yuanzhang, secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, was in a heavy heart. In the meeting room of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, Xiao Honglin said nothing, and Wang Yuanzhang smoked one after another. It was Li Weimin who broke the deadlock. "Comrade Yuanzhang, I think this time the Standing Committee should reflect on our gains and losses in holding the Yangko Festival in the past few years, and we can't go on like this. In fact, the majority of cadres and the masses have a lot of opinions on the Yangko Festival in recent years. , but Comrade Yuanzhang, you just can’t listen to it, so that today’s passive situation of laboring people and wasting money is caused.” Li Weimin’s words have always been right and wrong, and Wang Yuanzhang is used to it and doesn’t mind.

"I agree with Comrade Weimin's opinion. We talk about culture as a platform, and economic performances. What is culture? The end of all economic activities is culture. But this kind of culture is advanced. We cannot say that the Yangko Festival is a kind of local culture. It is not healthy, but at least it does not represent our old industrial base that has been developed for more than 50 years. The culture is elegant, but it may set a trap for us. What is the soul of Dongzhou culture is worth pondering, but it is absolutely It's not Yangge." Zhao Guoguang, director of the Municipal People's Congress, said emotionally.

"I disagree with Comrade Guoguang," said Zhang Baochang, chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. "I admit that this year's Yangko Festival was not very successful. There are many reasons. I think the main one is that some people look down on local culture. Comrades, local culture It is our bone marrow! In the past few years, we have held the Yangko Festival to let the whole country and even the world understand Dongzhou and pay attention to Dongzhou. We have achieved many major projects and explored the city's tourism resources. Dongzhou’s development has contributed a lot.”

"Chairman Zhang's mood is understandable," Li Weimin said calmly, "Let me say that the old industrial base cannot be revitalized by relying on Yangko. There is a greening year, and this year there is an opening year. In fact, it is the planned economy and the distorted view of political performance. I think the municipal party committee should do what the municipal party committee should do, the government should do what the government should do, and respect the market. Law, seeking truth from facts, the economic drama is not as good as Yangko." Li Weimin is a pragmatic person. At that time, the provincial party committee sent Li Weimin to Dongzhou as the deputy mayor. He did not expect that the representatives of the Dongzhou People's Congress were bullying, and he was particularly disgusted with the airborne cadres. In the end, he lost to Jia Chaoxuan by only one vote For this reason, Wang Yuanzhang, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, and Zhao Guoguang, Director of the Municipal People's Congress, both made a review to the Provincial Party Committee.Taking into account Li Weimin's ability and the specific situation of Dongzhou City, the Provincial Party Committee appointed Li Weimin as Secretary of Dongzhou City Party Committee.Li Weimin worked hard in the spirit of seeking truth from facts, and finally won the trust of Dongzhou cadres and masses.

Because Wang Yuanzhang knew Li Weimin's character very well, and knew that he did everything out of public interest and never worked out scheming. Although Li Weimin's words were heavy, his words were serious. Jia Chaoxuan came back from Beijing to participate in the Standing Committee, but he didn't say a word. The biggest difference between Jia Chaoxuan and Li Weimin is that one is an official and the other is a person. Jia Chaoxuan is very particular about officialdom. He has long summed up the six ways of being an official from books such as "Anjing" and so on, that is, big officials do small things, small officials do big things, idle officials do busy work, busy officials do idle work, and false officials Do it in real terms, and do it in vain.

Like today's scene, Jia Chaoxuan has long seen that Xiao Honglin intends to contribute to the Yangko Festival, but has been waiting for the opportunity. Once Xiao Honglin speaks, Jia Chaoxuan must weigh the pros and cons to express his opinion. In fact, Wang Yuanzhang is a courageous person who has always been open-minded. During a meeting in the province a few years ago, Lin Bai, secretary of the provincial party committee, had a conversation with him. The provincial change of office at the end of next year requires him to be a deputy to the provincial people's congress. When he was about to leave the position of secretary of the municipal party committee, what an uproar was caused.

"Comrades," Wang Yuanzhang finally said, "Everyone's opinions are very pertinent, especially the opinions of Comrade Weimin and Comrade Guoguang have touched me a lot. I agree with their opinions and accept criticism. I am responsible for the mistakes. But there is nothing wrong with the cultural stage and the economic performance. I hope everyone can explore a new way of thinking to improve the urban functions of Dongzhou City and improve the urban quality of Dongzhou City.” Xiao Honglin did not expect that Wang Yuanzhang had the courage to criticize himself. He thought that his old partner was giving himself a step up, so he took the opportunity to reveal his idea of ​​bidding for the World Flower Art Expo, which immediately aroused enthusiastic responses from the participants.In fact, everyone is opposed to holding Yangko Festival in their bones, including Zhang Hongchang, chairman of the CPPCC, but many things in the officialdom cannot be decided by their own wishes, and must be decided by political interests. Jia Chaoxuan felt that the time had come, so he lit a soft pack of Zhonghua cigarettes, took a deep breath and said, "Obviously, once the 'Flower Expo' is successfully bid, it will bring huge international influence and comprehensive benefits to Dongzhou, especially those like An old industrial base like Dongzhou City can explore a sustainable development path that combines industry and greening and horticulture by holding the 'Flower Expo'. I suggest that this matter should be taken as the top project, and Mayor Xiao will personally grasp it." "No," Xiao Honglin said resolutely, "Comrade Chaoxuan is studying in Beijing. It is convenient for him to work in relevant state departments, and he is also the deputy mayor in charge. I think Comrade Chaoxuan will handle the preparation of the declaration for this matter." Chaoxuan, let the Beijing Office run more errands, Ding Nengtong can still do something." Jia Chaoxuan did not expect Xiao Honglin to throw the most difficult bone to himself, because the bid was successful, and the credit was not his own. If the bid failed, the responsibility could only be borne by himself.What's more, excellent cities in many countries are vying to host the Flower Expo. Even if it is a domestic city, any city in the south is better than Dongzhou's bid to host it. Jia Chaoxuan didn't express his opinion for a while. "Okay, Comrade Chaoxuan is very appropriate to take care of this matter. I think it's settled. This matter should give full play to the role of the Beijing Office. Chaoxuan and Ding Nengtong are under your control. This guy is good at dredging relationships. A good player." Wang Yuanzhang said affirmatively. After the meeting, Xiao Honglin asked Zheng Weiguo to inform Ding Nengtong to come to the office. Ding Nengtong was going back to Beijing and was going through formalities at the airport. "Yes, the bid for the 'Flower Expo' can be started, and the Standing Committee has just finished. Do you know the importance of this matter?" Xiao Honglin's eyes jumped suddenly, and he quickly flashed a glance at Ding Nengtong. "Boss, I understand in my heart that you have caused the Yangko Festival to make a lot of noise in the past few years, and you can take advantage of the 'Flower Fair' to feel proud." Ding Nengtong deliberately didn't say anything, the most taboo in the officialdom is to be higher than the leader in everything. The leader pats you on the shoulder to be approachable. If you pat the leader on the shoulder, you are making trouble. If you inquire about the situation of the leader's family casually, it is called ulterior motives. "Childish!" Xiao Honglin lit a cigarette, walked to the window, glanced at the city hall square and said with emotion, "It works, the provincial government will change next year." Ding Nengtong immediately understood that there have been rumors that Lin Bai, secretary of the provincial party committee, will be transferred to Beijing, and that the current governor, Zhao Changzheng, will serve as secretary of the provincial party committee. It is said that both Wang Yuanzhang and Xiao Honglin are candidates to succeed the governor. It seems that Xiao Honglin has already started We were thinking about this position. "Boss, actually bidding to host the Flower Expo is a risky move." "How do you say that?" "Boss, after all, Dongzhou is an inland city with a rough cityscape. It can't compare to the south where the seasons are like spring. As far as I know, flower expos have been held in cities in many countries, but they all have a common feature, the climate is humid. Gentle, suitable for the growth of flowers!" Ding Nengtong said worriedly. "There are indeed many unfavorable factors in holding the Flower Expo in Dongzhou. Because of this, once it is successful, it will have a sensational effect. I just want to turn the unfavorable factors into favorable factors. The geographical location is immutable, but the space for change is people. Ingenuity. I have handed over the bid to Jia Chaoxuan, and you will fully cooperate with him during this time, but don’t forget what I told you in Beijing.” Thinking of what Xiao Honglin said to him in Beijing, Ding Nengtong felt that he was in a den of right and wrong, and his mood suddenly became gloomy, but he couldn't show it on his face. Ding Nengtong and Jia Chaoxuan flew back to Beijing on the same plane. Before boarding the plane, Ding Nengtong informed Huang Mengran to pick him and Jia Chaoxuan up by car; "I can get through. To be the director of the Beijing Office, I have to broaden my thinking. I heard that the Beijing Office of some cities has already started training college student nannies." "Mayor Jia, where do you train college students to be babysitters?" "National ministries, commissions, bureaus (divisions), which leaders don't use nannies? Train some high-quality nannies and go to these leaders to be nannies. It will be convenient for us to go to the doors of these leaders, and we can also get a lot of important information in time! " "Mayor Jia, this idea is great, I will seriously consider it." "Right now, you should first think about how to bid for the Flower Expo. Holding the Flower Expo in Dongzhou is like letting a man have a baby. It's so difficult!" Jia Chaoxuan took out a soft pack of Zhonghua cigarettes and lit a deep breath. Take a sip. "Mayor Jia, it's not difficult to show your true qualities as a hero?" Ding Nengtong said flatteringly with a smile, "Make full use of your classmates in the party school, this is your greatest wealth." "This is true. I really have classmates who work in the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade and the Ministry of Commerce." "Mayor Jia, to obtain the support of the industry authorities and approval departments, half of the work will be done." "Yeah, this time we have a reason to go abroad for sightseeing. The last session was held in Seoul, South Korea, so we went there as the first stop. I happened to be studying at the party school and I was about to graduate, so you have time to accompany me and your sister-in-law Take a trip." Ding Nengtong read "The Biography of Heshen", and he felt that it was a pity that this corrupt official who was slick, intelligent, eloquent, and quick-witted had an ending. He Shen is loyal, he regards the emperor's heart as his own heart, and tries to coax Emperor Qianlong to be happy, but the Jia Chaoxuan in front of him seems to be better than He Shen, but he has not yet found the emperor's heart. My little director of the Beijing Office had no choice but to bow down.
