Hearing that another reporter was visiting, Shen Liping only felt a headache. In the past half a month, the Shating Power Plant has suddenly become a famous star, and the big newspapers and tabloids have to carry the name of the Shating Power Plant to expose it from time to time. Some newspapers are obviously talking about one other thing, and the reporter's mouth is slipping, and they also want to say "just like the Shating Power Plant disclosed by the media a few days ago", so that Shen Liping fully understands what makes people afraid of being famous and pigs afraid of being strong.

These days, there have been no less than 20 reporters who have come to Shen Liping or called him to verify various issues. At the beginning, Shen Liping was still thinking about how to speak cleverly and give the reporter a passable answer to avoid falling into passivity. But later, he found out that in fact, it doesn't matter how you say it in front of the reporter, when the reporter wants to praise you, you just say "um" casually, it will be described as sonorous and powerful, and when the reporter wants to hack you, even if you spit lotus flowers, people will break the petals and say that there is a worm eye on it.

Those who were able to go to the preparatory office of the Shating Power Plant to interview were all holding back their efforts to blacken Dingnan Province, and the interview was just a process of finding faults, or even just to add some credibility to the manuscript that had already been written. In this case, Shen Liping's brains are superfluous.

Regarding the matter of this reporter's interview, Shen Liping also consulted the Provincial Planning Commission, and the Provincial Planning Commission gave him the following instructions: Warm hospitality and no comment. The reason for the warm hospitality is that journalists are a group that everyone can't afford to mess with, and they can't be offended casually. There is no comment, just let Shen Liping not say anything, just play haha, just say something like the wind and snow, and never let others grab any handles.

After saying this eight-character mantra, the official of the Provincial Planning Commission who sent the message to Shen Liping conveyed an informal instruction that was said to come from the leadership, suggesting that Shen Liping could appropriately give the reporters a little hush money so that these reporters should not talk nonsense, or at least be able to accumulate virtue when talking nonsense, and not to speak too harshly. According to an official of the Planning Commission, all the bustling people in the world are fame and fortune, and when reporters come to expose black materials, isn't it just a matter of trying to make some profits? Power plants are big projects with an investment of several billion yuan, and where will there be a shortage of a little hush money? Spend money to buy peace, why not.

"It's Reporter Du, welcome, welcome!"

Shen Liping said insincerely, got up and beckoned Du Xiaoyi to sit down, and at the same time glanced at the secretary. When the reporter leaves, the secretary will stuff the envelope with the money, and the reporters have always accepted it.

"Director Shen, I guess Director Shen can guess my intention, right? I don't think we need to go around in any circle. This time, the bidding of Shating Power Plant specifically proposed the use of four 360,000 kW units, and I would like to ask Director Shen about who proposed this specification and what kind of basis it came from. ”

After Du Xiaoyi sat down, he didn't talk too much nonsense, and asked his own questions straightforwardly. In this era, the status of the media is quite high, and reporters are really a bit domineering of uncrowned kings, and they don't need to be too polite to the interviewee wherever they go.

The corners of Shen Liping's mouth twitched, and the smile on his face became even thicker, and he said: "Reporter Du, the Shating Power Plant is a World Bank loan project, and everything must be implemented in accordance with the World Bank rules. As far as the tender is concerned, the World Bank's experts are involved from start to finish, and the decision-making process is very rigorous. ”

Du Xiaodi did not get into his words, but went straight to the point and asked: "You mean that the equipment specification of 360,000 kilowatts was set by the World Bank experts?"

"Not really. ”

"So, this specification was proposed by Dingnan Province itself?"

"Reporter Du, it's inconvenient for me to answer this question to you, this involves some internal situations, and there is a certain level of secrecy. Shen Liping played Tai Chi, which is also the method of the Provincial Planning Commission to explain him, and when he encounters a question that is not easy to answer, he directly pushes it to secrecy, and people can't help it.

"Really?" Since Du Xiaoyi was coming to the Shating Power Plant, she was naturally prepared, and she asked with a smile: "Then let me ask a question that does not involve secrets, Director Shen, are you from the power system?"

"Of course, I've been working in power plants and have been in the industry for more than 20 years now. ”

"Since this is the case, does Director Shen know that our country's thermal power equipment only has two specifications, 300,000 kilowatts and 600,000 kilowatts, and there is no 360,000 kilowatts?"

"This ......" Shen Liping was dumb all of a sudden. No matter how dull he was, he knew that Du Xiaoyi had dug a hole for him, and when he knew that there were only two specifications of 300,000 and 600,000 in China, he had to determine a specification of 360,000 kilowatts, which obviously confirmed his attempt not to use domestic equipment. But to say that he didn't know this seems to be difficult to justify.

"What, doesn't Director Shen know about this situation?"

"Well, uh, I still know a little bit about this situation. ”

"So in other words, Director Shen also knows that this bidding plan deliberately excludes domestic equipment?"

"This ...... I didn't think about ......."

"Have you not thought about it, or do you think it should be so?"

"I just didn't think about it. ”

"Well, well, now you can think of that, can you tell me whether you are for this plan or against it?"

"I am only in charge of the construction of the power plant, I did not participate in the bidding matter, and the issue of specifications is a matter considered by the superiors, and my level is not enough. Shen Liping replied with sweat on his head.

Du Xiaoyi smiled even sweeter, and she said, "Director Shen, let's just chat casually today, and it doesn't involve decision-making. As a veteran comrade who has worked in the power system for more than 20 years, don't you have a little opinion of your own on the issue of deliberately excluding domestic equipment from power plant bidding?"

"No!" replied Shen Liping firmly. Nima, what do you mean by casual chatting, am I so familiar with you? The questions you asked are clearly pits, and I don't know how to climb out of them.

Du Xiaoyi nodded, wrote a few strokes in the interview book, and then said: "Then Director Shen, I plan to write like this in the manuscript: Comrade Shen Liping, director of the preparatory department of the Shating Power Plant, said that he does not care about whether the power plant uses domestic equipment in the bidding, and what he cares about every day is only his position and salary......

"When did I say that?" Shen Liping was anxious, what kind of words is this, a national cadre doesn't care about his own work, is it okay to spread this kind of words?

"So, you're concerned about this?"

"Of course!"

"What's your opinion, then?"

"This ......" Shen Liping was speechless again, why did he go around in a circle and be encircled again?

"Director Shen, can I guess like this, in fact, your heart is also very patriotic, and I also hope that our power plant can use more domestic equipment......

"Well, let's just say that. ”

"However, on the issue of bidding for the Shating Power Plant, patriotic comrades like you have not been given a say, and a small number of superstitious officials who import equipment have monopolized the decision-making process. ”

"It seems that you can't say that, right?" Shen Liping was about to cry, when did he say such a thing, this was obviously made up by Du Xiaoyi, okay? But Du Xiaoyi's words are extremely correct, and Shen Liping doesn't know where to start if he wants to deny it. He found himself in a contradiction, saying that supporting the 360,000 kilowatt specification meant that he was an accomplice of those superstitious officials who imported equipment, and that if he opposed this specification, he would be used by Du Xiaoyi as a gun to attack the Provincial Planning Commission. He thought about saying "no comment" such diplomatic rhetoric, but Du Xiaoyi didn't give him this opportunity, people asked about things involving Shen Liping's person, if you dare to say that you have no comment, people can say that you are a vegetarian meal, as a project leader, you don't even have any thoughts of your own.

"Reporter Du, don't embarrass me, a person who runs errands below. Shen Liping could only play the sad card, "The bidding for the power plant is such a big matter as the provincial leaders, what can I, a small department-level cadre, say? Whether it is domestic equipment or imported equipment, it is really not something I can evaluate." Is this good, reporter Du, you see that I am also very busy with work here, and I really don't have time to accept your interview, is this all for today's interview...... Xiao Wang!"

In the last voice, Shen Liping shouted outside the room, the secretary Xiao Wang had already been guarding the door, and when he heard the call, he flashed in, stood beside Du Xiaoyi, and said with a smile: "Reporter Du, Director Shen is very busy with work, so let's stop for today's interview." Our place is a suburb, the conditions are not very good, and there are no good restaurants next to it, which is a little meaning, so I should invite reporter Du to dinner......"

Speaking of this, he took out the envelope that he had prepared long ago and handed it to Du Xiaoyi. Du Xiaoyi stood up, looked at the envelope, turned his head to Shen Liping and said with a smile: "Thank you Director Shen for your kindness, this thing will be exempted." I have gained a lot from the interview just now, and I am very grateful to Director Shen for his cooperation. ”

"I really didn't say anything. Shen Liping cried with a sad face. He knew he was shot again, but he didn't know where he was going to be shot this time. He has already strictly implemented the requirements of the Provincial Planning Commission, and he is silent about Du Xiaoyi, but he can't stand the fact that people will make up for it. I was hoping to stuff an envelope to stop this reporter Du's mouth, but now it seems that it has also failed, who knows what she will write when she goes back?

Du Xiaoyi left. Shen Liping asked his secretary Xiao Wang to make another effort, and increased the usual 100 yuan for reporters to 500 yuan, and all of them were exchanged for 10 yuan bills, which were bulging in envelopes, which was very tempting, but Du Xiaoyi refused without even looking at it.

Shen Liping looked at Du Xiaoyi's distant figure from the window of the office, picked up the phone on the table, and asked to call the Provincial Planning Commission:

"Hey, Director Wang, I can't bear it, the Planning Commission will find a way to solve this matter!
