Chapter 44 Chapter Forty-Four

Zhu Huaijing's trip to Beijing was unnoticed.Because Yin Zhengdong participated in this quasi-underground work, he was always indescribably excited.He followed Zhu Huaijing for a walk, but he didn't see anything at first, it felt like he had seen the world.Zhu Huaijing couldn't figure out how deep the water was and how high the mountain was.Yin Zhengdong was originally a person with an unreliable mouth, but on this mysterious journey, he would not spit out half a word.He believed that the more secrets he knew, the more face he would have.Once the secret is revealed, it is no longer a secret, and it seems that the face will shrink.In fact, he doesn't know anything, but in Xiao Ma's view, he has all the inside information.Xiao Ma didn't know that the stone was so rare that it was worth sending it to Beijing.But the more this is the case, the more profound it is.Xiao Ma looked at Yin Zhengdong with a little more respect; just like Yin Zhengdong almost respected and feared Zhu Huaijing.

Not long after returning from Beijing, Zhu Huaijing went to Jingdu for a meeting.The scale of the meeting was small, only the secretaries of the cities and regions attended.Wang Mangzhi was wearing a white suit and his leather shoes were also white.His hair was already gray, but it was so black that it was oily.In his sixties, his face is still red and his eyes are piercing.He entered the meeting room, smiled and said hello to the comrades, and shook hands with everyone.He shook the hands of his subordinates, exchanged pleasantries, and sometimes patted others on the shoulder.He walked up to Zhu Huaijing, stretched out his hand gently, and perfunctorily passed.Nor did he say a word.Wang Mangzhi's face was made for everyone to see, and he was still full of joy.But the hands are soft, only Zhu Huaijing can feel it.

Wang Mangzhi always sat alone on the milky white double leather sofa in the north of the meeting room.Two years ago, Wang Mangzhi transferred to Jingdu from other places. He had a meeting for the first time. Once he leaned on this sofa, there was no one else to sit on.He always likes to sit in the middle of the sofa, with his hands spread exaggeratedly to both sides, crossing his legs, and shaking.A double sofa becomes a single sofa.When he was talking, his head always swayed from side to side, and his eyes patrolled the 180-degree fan.The mayor always sat on the single sofa next to him, facing Wang Mangzhi diagonally, looking very humble.

At this time, the meeting had not officially started, and Wang Mangzhi chatted with everyone, looking very energetic.He smiled like a Bodhisattva, watching his subordinates one by one.But his eyes never glanced at Zhu Huaijing's face.Zhu Huaijing smiled as if nothing had happened, and followed Wang Mangzhi's gaze.And Wang Mangzhi's gaze was like an annoying mosquito in summer, buzzing, getting closer and then far away, no matter what he couldn't kill it. Zhu Huaijing thought to himself, this man in white clothes, white trousers and white leather shoes is completely offended!

Wang Mangzhi's hearty laughter echoed in the conference room, but Zhu Huaijing felt that the palm of his right hand was so greasy that it was full of snot.Wang Mangzhi's palms were soft, slippery, and wet, which made him very uncomfortable.The meeting finally officially started, and Wang Mang was eloquent and eloquent.Although it is an important meeting, it has no practical significance.There is a new spirit at the top, so we need to say hello among the leaders below.In fact, things that can be explained clearly in one sentence have to be explained at length.It's nothing more than this matter, what was said in the past, but now that the situation has developed, it has to be changed, and it should be said so.so so.

Zhu Huaijing lowered his head to take notes, but he didn't write down a few words.Very simple things, to start a bureaucratic article, you need to change your concept, unify your thinking, improve your understanding, and strengthen your leadership. It is extremely cumbersome.Wang Mangzhi's hard and punchy Shandong accent is becoming increasingly unpleasant to listen to.When Zhu Huaijing went to Beijing, he didn't say anything about Wang Mang's bad deeds in front of Mr. Li, but he knew it well.Now he simply hates this person, even Wang Mangzhi's white clothes are very ridiculous.Someone joked in private, saying that in the entertainment place in Jingdu, they looked down and saw a pair of white leather shoes, and when they looked up, they must be Wang Mangzhi.

Chatting after the meeting, everyone was talking about Wang Mang's tune in Beijing.It seems that his transfer is certain, it's just a matter of time.These prefectural party committee secretaries were all favored by Wang Mang, but they began to talk about him in private.Since ancient times, it has been said that people take tea to cool down, but now some officials are notorious.It is rare to hear a lot of scolding before people leave.It can be seen that Wang Mangzhi's behavior is too unreasonable.But in the end Zhu Huaijing just listened to other people's gossip, and he didn't add much to it.After all, he was just promoted by Wang Mangzhi, so I am afraid that people will say that he is not authentic.In fact, his worries are unnecessary.He offended Wang Mangzhi in the matter of expressway bidding, and soon spread throughout Jingdu official circles.Otherwise, others would still regard him as Wang Mangzhi's confidant, how could they speak ill of Wang Mangzhi in front of him?

Zhu Huaijing felt that he had turned against Wang Mang, and he himself was morally blameless.But I don't know why, but my heart is still empty, for fear that others will say that he is a white-eyed wolf.So during the few days of the meeting, he went to the homes of some leaders in the city when he was free.He didn't usually visit some leaders, but this time he bit the bullet and came to visit.Shu Tian and Yang Chong naturally followed suit.Sometimes Shu Tian went to the leader's house with Zhu Huaijing, and sometimes he stayed in the car with Yang Chong. It's easy to go to Fan Dongyang's house, just make a phone call and go.Shu Tian also followed.Fan Dongyang was watching the news broadcast, his expression was silent, and he motioned for him to sit down.He didn't speak, just sat down and stared hard at the TV.He also likes to watch news broadcasts, but he is not as persistent as Fan Dongyang, and he doesn't even care about being polite when guests come.Fortunately, there is a bracket on Fan Dongyang's face, and he seems to be smiling all the time, otherwise it will be very embarrassing.After the news was over, Fan Dongyang seemed to be a different person suddenly, and said with a bright smile: "Huai Jing, I know some things, you are right."

Fan Dongyang has always been reserved, but it's a little strange that he can speak like this.Perhaps the personnel structure is about to change, and everything will follow.Zhu Huaijing couldn't explain it clearly, he just said, "That's all I can do." Fan Dongyang said: "I didn't expect Meici to make it so complicated in the past few years. Lu Tianyi has been regulated twice." "Really? Why didn't I hear anything?" Zhu Huaijing was very surprised. Fan Dongyang said: "It happened this morning. The procuratorate searched his house. I'm afraid there will be a big problem."

Zhu Huaijing said: "There was no sign beforehand, he was very mature." Fan Dongyang said: "As long as the buttocks are not clean, it will only happen sooner or later. This time he showed his tail. He is not worried about the position of deputy secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission. He wrote letters to the superiors in the name of the masses to protect himself. The merit evaluation is well arranged. From Beijing to Jingdu, many leaders have received letters from him. This has attracted the attention of the higher-ups. In addition, there are also those who reported him, so we got together."

Zhu Huaijing naturally knew what was going on, but said with a smile, "It's really funny." "Cleverness is misunderstood by cleverness." Fan Dongyang said. Zhu Huaijing suddenly remembered that Yin Zhengdong had come.I wanted to report Yin Zhengdong's letter, at least a hundred leaders had received it, why didn't anyone give orders to check it out?But he said: "Comrade Tianyi, we have worked together for a while, and we are quite straightforward." Fan Dongyang smiled and said: "He is straightforward, but he is too greedy and domineering." Zhu Huaijing didn't want to talk too much about it, so he said, "Minister Fan, you gave me the painting, and I hung it in the office, and the comrades agreed. You discovered and summarized Mashan's experience, and we will follow your instructions to make more money." The work there is more solid. Whenever I see that painting, I will always think of the five inks you mentioned last time. In fact, that is the philosophy of life. To be an official is to be a man. There is a degree of depth. It is impossible not to teach the rules." Fan Dongyang became interested, and the two talked about painting for reading.It is natural to talk about Jin Yong.Zhu Huaijing had finished reading the complete works of Jin Yong, and he had some experience, saying: "Minister Fan, I am also fascinated by Jin Yong because of your influence. I have read all of Jin Yong's novels in one go. From my personal point of view, Jin Yong has a great influence on Chinese literature. I can’t remember the famous comment of Mr. Lu Xun, saying that scholars see what revolutionaries see. I also feel this way when I read Jin Yong’s novels. For example, you believe in Buddhism. , you will see the principles of Buddhism and Zen in Jin Yong's novels. In Jin Yong's works, those martial arts who finally reach the highest level are often those clumsy and foolish people, such as Guo Jing, Shi Potian, etc. In fact, this is the will of Buddhism. Only by doing your best and returning to the truth can you achieve true results. If you believe in Confucianism, you can see loyalty, propriety, wisdom and faith in Jin Yong's novels. For example, Qiao Feng, his loyalty is comparable to Guan Yu, and he can be said to be righteous. Speaking of Qiao Feng, he It is also a saint of love, and the lovers can see the love of their children. It can be said that Jin Yong has integrated the philosophies and methodologies of Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism, law, military and other schools. Great wisdom and wisdom." Fan Dongyang felt quite a bosom friend. He patted Zhu Huaijing's knee and said, "Huaijing is a smart man with high savvy and can read. Jin Yong's novels are like this. They are popular with both refined and popular tastes. Great intellectuals like to read them, and ordinary people like to read them too." "When it comes to both elegance and vulgarity, I have learned something again." Zhu Huaijing was a little excited, and accidentally stole Fan Dongyang's talk, "I thought that in a general sense, both elegance and vulgarity are to find a middle ground between elegance and vulgarity, or to find a middle ground between elegance and vulgarity. A kind of compromise, to conquer the readers as much as possible. Jin Yong’s novels are both elegant and popular. It’s different, and what you get from it is different. People who have a rough grasp of characters can just read it as a general martial arts novel, and they can read it with gusto. People with wisdom roots can understand Buddhism and Taoism from it.” Fan Dongyang nodded and smiled, "Huai Jing is a person who likes to think about problems and has ideas." Zhu Huaijing said modestly: "Where, what I'm talking about is just the fragments of thinking when I read a book, so I can't talk about thoughts. Director Fan, I have a strange feeling. I just came into contact with Jin Yong's novels and found that he is an idealist and perfectionist. The characters he loves in his works can be perfect. Speaking of Qiao Feng, almost all the good qualities of men in the world are concentrated in him. Jin Yong’s novels promote the best of traditional Chinese culture, For example, punishing evil and promoting good, acting chivalrously, caring about the world, serving the country with loyalty, etc. Most of the positive characters in his works are righteous, mighty and unyielding, and refreshing. But later on, some of the positive characters he wrote Some evil spirits slowly permeated. For example, Wei Xiaobao in his final work is simply a hooligan and a gangster. Does this reflect Mr. Jin Yong’s thinking about history, society and life? Maybe he finally realized that, Ideals can’t replace reality.” Fan Dongyang sighed: "Huai Jing, you and I are idealists. We all want to do our best, but it's difficult." "It's really difficult. Minister Fan, it's even more difficult when I'm here. I need your support." Zhu Huaijing said. Fan Dongyang patted the back of Zhu Huaijing's hand and said, "I also need your support. Comrade Huaijing, you are in charge of the overall work now, and you should pay more attention to the organizational work. Please continue to support my work." Zhu Huaijing could understand that Fan Dongyang wanted him to vote for it.The last time Fan Dongyang didn't join the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, he was only one vote away.Some words cannot be specified, only vague.Zhu Huaijing said, "I definitely support you." Fan Dongyang nodded in satisfaction and said, "Huai Jing, don't worry about it." After getting out of Fan Dongyang's house and getting into the car, Shu Tian smiled and said, "Secretary Zhu, I'm ashamed. I haven't touched a Jin Yong novel yet. Hearing what you said, I feel a little shaky. The so-called Shao Le, I don’t know the taste of meat in March, that’s how it feels. I have to get a set of Jin Yong’s novels and read them quickly.” "Read it, you will understand a lot of truths." Zhu Huaijing said.
