Chapter 50: Remote Control

At the beginning, Liu Hong left Anxi TV on the front foot, and the municipal party committee immediately appointed a new director. However, the new director is not Wu Shifei, who is highly recommended by Liu Hong, but Cao Jianhua.

Although Liu Hong had signed a 10-year cooperation agreement with Jushi Advertising Company before leaving the TV station, she was always worried that Cao Jianhua would not be able to withstand the pressure of some employees and would terminate the cooperation early.

The termination of the partnership means that the TV station will either run its own advertising and cause a lot of complaints from the whole station, or it will look for other partner companies, but no one will necessarily want to take the plate.

With a high sense of responsibility, Liu Hong tried his best to do a good job in the work of the Cultural Affairs Bureau, and at the same time paid close attention to the career development of the TV station, and could not bear to let the TV station experience unnecessary twists and turns and turmoil.

At the beginning, she called Cao Jianhua once a week to learn about the big and small things of the TV station and grasp Cao Jianhua's decision-making intentions and dynamics.

Subsequently, she immediately called Wu Shifei, listened to Wu Shifei's detailed report and comments, and saw if Cao Jianhua was perfunctory and coped with herself.

Although Cao Jianhua has some opinions on Liu Hong's handling of some things, he still admires her professionalism and courage very much, so every time he talks to Liu Hong on the phone, he always humbly asks her for advice.

Liu Hong gradually became a little conceited in the communication with Cao Jianhua, thinking that Cao Jianhua was sincere to himself, so sometimes he spoke unconsciously with the tone of his superiors, which made Cao Jianhua's heart begin to feel uncomfortable.

As Liu Hong expected, Cao Jianhua couldn't resist the employees putting forward opinions one after another, and found Wu Shifei to discuss how to terminate the cooperation agreement with Jushi Advertising Company.

Wu Shifei was vague about this, refused to make a clear statement, and used the excuse of going to the bathroom to take the opportunity to report to Liu Hong.

Soon, Cao Jianhua received a call from Liu Hong, who sometimes blamed, sometimes reasoned, and used both soft and hard, and suddenly felt like he was sandwiched between two towering walls, one wall was the righteous and strict TV station employees, and the other wall was Liu Hong, who resolutely maintained the status quo.

In the face of tremendous pressure from both sides, Cao Jianhua came up with a compromise plan to continue the 10-year advertising cooperation with Jushi Advertising, but the advertising agency fee in 2008 must be increased by 10% instead of the 6% agreed in the contract.

Liu Hong was very angry when he saw this compromise plan, but for the overall situation of the cooperation between the two sides, he had to contact Liang Jincai directly many times, and worked hard to do the ideological work of Jushi Advertising Company.

Liang Jincai also felt very tricky, and canceled the cooperation with Anxi TV, firstly, it would have a great impact on the company's performance, and secondly, it would make Liu Hong very embarrassed. Let's continue to cooperate, the company's profits have declined sharply, and it has opened an opening for Cao Jianhua to continue bargaining.

Although Liang Jincai's education level is not high, he is still very atmospheric. In the end, he decided to give in first, and if it didn't work, he would completely cut off the advertising cooperation with Anzai TV.

Liang Jincai's decision is a relatively satisfactory result for everyone. Liu Hong and Cao Jianhua were very happy about this, and finally closed a big event.

A few days later, the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, the Minister of Propaganda and the Deputy Mayor Ye Peiying talked to Liu Hong.

The Minister of Propaganda first said: "Comrade Liu Hong, you have been in the Cultural Affairs Bureau for only one year, and you have made great achievements in forging ahead and boldly reforming. We see it in our eyes and remember it in our hearts. However, there are still many deep-seated problems in the Cultural Affairs Bureau, which require you to work hard to solve them without distraction. ”

Liu Hong's heart was already uneasy about the two city leaders talking to him together, but he felt even more uneasy after listening to the words of the propaganda minister, so he had to say: "Thank you Minister for your encouragement." I will definitely continue to work hard. ”

Ye Peiying found that Liu Hong, who is usually very smart, was a little confused today, so she had to say to Liu Hong bluntly: "We know that you have feelings for the TV station and have made a lot of contributions, but now that you are the director of the Cultural Bureau, you should be more concerned about this side." With Cao Jianhua in charge of the TV station and the direct leadership of the Radio, Film and Television Bureau, everything will be done in accordance with policies and procedures, so don't ...... it."

When Liu Hong heard this, he suddenly realized that he understood the purpose of the city-level leaders talking to him today. She is a smart person, and she immediately reacted in her heart that she must not let the leader say something ugly, so she quickly interrupted Ye Peiying's words and said: "Please rest assured, the two leaders, I will never interfere in the correct decision-making of the TV station, and I will never form a gang." I will give my full support to Comrade Cao Jianhua's work. ”

Ye Peiying was very appreciative of Liu Hong's comprehension statement, and finally showed a satisfied smile on her face.

In fact, Ye Peiying's heart is the same as Liu Hong's, and she has constant feelings for the unit she has worked hard for, and it is inevitable that she will have reservations about the actions of her successor. Alas, we women are the ones who look ahead and worry about everything. Ye Peiying's heavy words to Liu Hong are also admonishing herself.

On the way back to the Cultural Affairs Bureau, Liu Hong felt very aggrieved in his heart and couldn't help but shed tears.

The driver, Xiao Jia, saw Liu Hong wiping his tears from the rearview mirror, and couldn't help but feel a little flustered. It was the first time he saw a leader who was usually as strong as steel crying his nose.

Xiao Jia was in a trance, his hands didn't listen to the command, and he obviously saw that the tail lights of the car in front of him were red, but he stepped on the accelerator and hit the car parked in front directly......

At the end of the year, Anxi TV and Jushi Advertising Company began to negotiate the amount of advertising agency fees for the next year.

Liang Jincai once again came to Anxi City in person. He set up a table at the five-star Kunlun Hotel and invited the leaders of Anxi TV to discuss cooperation in 2008.

Liang Jincai and Cao Jianhua fought over the specific amount of agency fees, and they were also drunk.

Liang Jincai took Cao Jianhua's hand and said, "I really can't figure it out, Liu Hong is a problem that a little woman can solve casually, why can't we two big men solve it?"

Cao Jianhua shook his head and said, "Liu Hong? Liu Hong is not a woman. Mr. Liang, don't stare at me. Liu Hong, she is not a person, she is a goddess. What is a goddess? You know?"

Liang Jincai's mind went blank, and he couldn't understand the meaning.

Cao Jianhua waved his hand again and said with a smile: "You don't understand? ”

Lin Yuan also followed Liang Jincai to Anxi. However, she did not attend the dinner between Liang Jincai and the TV station, but came to the remote Snow Lotus Hotel alone to meet Liu Hong for dinner alone, and talked about interesting anecdotes about Liangzhou.

Liu Hong confided in Lin Yuan about a recent worry in his heart: "Since Long Long was admitted to university and left, Zhao Qingsong and I really have nothing to say, and we can't say a word for almost a month. Sometimes I want to part with him, but I am afraid of the bad social impact, so I am worried. ”

Lin Yuan smiled and asked, "Sister, is there someone outside?"

Liu Hong hurriedly said, "No." I'm busy with work, so how can I find someone?"

Lin Yuan smiled again: "If you have someone, I suggest that you break up quickly and cut through the mess quickly." If there's no one, you might as well keep the status quo. After all, divorce still has a little impact on a leader like you. ”

Liu Hong nodded in agreement.

She ate a cold pumpkin seedling, and confided in Lin Yuan about her second trouble: "Long Long has the same virtue as his unmotivated father, who is not good at studying in college, and has a girlfriend from the countryside. I want to send him abroad to go to school, so that he and the girl are completely separated. ”

Liu Hong has always given others the impression that she is straightforward and decisive and has no hesitation, but in fact, she has always felt guilty about her son in her heart, and secretly blamed herself for not caring enough about the growth of her children many times, which led to the coldness of today's mother-son relationship. As a double compensation for her son's moral and material benefits, she carefully paved the way for her son to study in the United States.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed. Sometimes, the east wind really doesn't come to you easily.

When Liu Hong told his son about his plan to study abroad with great relief, Zhao Xiaolong was silent on the other end of the phone for a while, and then said categorically: "Mom, it's okay to go to the United States, but I want to go with Zhen Zhen." ”

Liu Hong's heart was anxious, and he blurted out: "Zhen Zhen's family is rural, and she can't afford to pay the college tuition, where is the money for her to study in the United States?"

Zhao Xiaolong said firmly: "If Zhen Zhen doesn't go, then I won't go either." ”

Liu Hong had no choice but to persuade him: "Son, my mother is very optimistic about you, you will definitely become an excellent talent in the future, with a bright future and brilliant prospects, but you can't let a rural girl delay your future!"

Zhao Xiaolong said angrily: "Don't you just want to break up Zhen Zhen and me through me to study in the United States! If so, there will be nothing to talk about between us!"

Liu Hong angrily yelled into the microphone: "You and your father have the same virtue!"

Zhao Xiaolong hung up the phone on the other end.

Liu Hong later called his son many times, but neither side could convince anyone. Every call was an unhappy one.

Liu Hong really had no choice but to ask Niu Xinguo to persuade Zhao Xiaolong as his uncle, but it still had no effect.

In the end, Liu Hongcai asked Zhao Qingsong and Chen Xiufang for help.

Chen Xiufang listened to Liu Hong's words and thought for a while, and then said slowly: "In my opinion, as long as the two children like each other, don't interfere too much as adults." Too much interference is counterproductive. What's more, we were farmers at the beginning......"

Liu Hong interrupted Chen Xiufang's words unhappily: "Mom, are you helping me?"

Chen Xiufang sighed, it's hard to say anything more.

Liu Hong turned his sharp eyes to Zhao Qingsong and asked, "You are the child's father, you say, what should we do?"

Zhao Qingsong was silent.

Liu Hong usually looks down on Zhao Qingsong's indecisiveness the most. She got up from the couch in a fit of rage, strode into her bedroom, and then slammed the door shut with a frustrated bang.
