After hearing this, Liu Haobing said: "Editor-in-chief Mei, I really didn't come to see Xiaomei this time. Next, he briefly talked about coming to Nanyun this time to build roads in Goushi Township.

Mei Anning frowned after hearing this: "Hao Bing, let's do this, I know a few leaders in the Transportation Department, otherwise, I will invite them to have a meal together in the evening, and briefly talk about your affairs with them, and see if I can help you." ”

Liu Haobing was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "Editor-in-chief Mei, do you really know the leader of the Department of Transportation?"

Mei Anning looked at Liu Haobing's surprised expression and said: "Why don't I know me, you should know what I do, I am the editor-in-chief of Nanyun Daily, not to mention a leader of the Department of Transportation, even those vice governors of the provincial government often eat together." ”

Liu Haobing knew that Mei Anning was going to praise Haikou again, so he hurriedly said: "Editor-in-chief Mei, then this matter depends on you, I will thank you for the fathers and villagers of Goushi Township first." ”

Mei Anning smiled after hearing this: "Hao Bing, you and I don't say these unfamiliar words, and don't call me Editor-in-Chief Mei in the future, it sounds like a stranger, you can call me Brother Mei in the future." ”

Liu Haobing hurriedly thanked him and said, "Thank you, Brother Mei!"

Liu Haobing has never been so easy, he came to Nanyun this time, he was sick and rushed to the doctor, and he didn't know if it could be done, he planned to block the car of Wen Guangliang, secretary of the provincial party committee, if it really didn't work, he didn't expect that Mei Anning knew the leaders of the Transportation Bureau, so this matter was half the success.

"Brother Mei, do you know the leader of the Transportation Bureau?" Liu Haobing hurriedly asked.

"Deputy Director in charge of the project!"

After Liu Haobing heard this, he put his heart in his stomach even more.

Now there is still a period of time before the end of the day, at this time Liu Haobing has left Wang Mei behind, and now what he wants to see most is the deputy director of the Department of Transportation, and when he sees the deputy director of the Department of Transportation, he can put his heart in his stomach as soon as possible to finalize the road repair in Goushi Township.

"Brother Mei, why don't you call the deputy director and see if he's there?"

Mei Anning saw Liu Haobing's anxious expression, and said: "You Liu Haobing, I didn't expect you to be a quick temper, if you are really anxious, or I will take you to his office." ”

Liu Haobing said happily: "Okay, then go now." ”

Mei Anning smiled: "Go, follow me, you are also the head of a township, why are you still like a monkey, with rough hair." ”

"Brother Mei, you don't know, our Goushi Township is poor, the villagers live a hard life, you can't think of it, I am the head of Goushi Township, so I have the obligation to let the people of Goushi Township live a good life, but my original facts are limited, just build such a road, I found the county, found the city, no one agreed to build the road for the villagers, and in the end, I had no choice but to find the province. ”

Mei Anning nodded after hearing this, he has been the editor-in-chief of the newspaper for so many years, he has never seen any bizarre things, Liu Haobing is used to such things, he wants to ask for a project empty-handed, can someone give it.

"Hao Bing, I know your temper, don't bow to the evil forces, don't bow to the power, but I tell you now, you are in the officialdom, if you want to do something, you have to bow your head, just say that the people of Goushi Township are bitter, yes, everyone knows that he is bitter, but why didn't the good project fall in Goushi Township, are these leaders not knowing? Let me tell you, they know better than anyone else, that leader did not thoroughly study the map of the place under his jurisdiction before taking office? After all, Goushi Township is a township, and it is also a place with a population of hundreds of thousands, so it is impossible for them not to know, but the people of this place can still live in dire straits, do you know why, let me tell you, it is those leaders who don't know how to be officials, and those who don't understand how to ask for projects. ”

Liu Haobing was stunned and said, "Brother Mei, what do you mean?"

"Hao Bing, if you want to do one thing, you must know the word 'giving', after all, at present, our country's resources are limited, and limited resources have to be used somewhere, so who has the final say, I tell you, it is those who are officials. Officials should use these resources, one is to contribute to their own political achievements, at least to use them in a place that others can see, and the other is to increase their own invisible income, and you have been to Goushi Township, this is a place where even the county leaders have given up, how can they put a lot of money in Goushi Township, have you thought about it, so if you want to invest in projects here, then these leaders will get invisible income. ”

Liu Haobing's face slowly became gloomy after hearing this.

"Brother Mei, I heard you say that, we have to go and give gifts!"

"Gift-giving, it's too cheesy, let's talk about it then. Let's go first!" said Mei Anning.

Liu Haobing lost confidence by Mei Anning's words.

"Brother Mei, otherwise, I'll go to the supermarket and buy two cigarettes and two bottles of wine. Liu Haobing suddenly opened up.

Mei Anning smiled again after hearing this: "We are going to his office now, is it appropriate for you to take cigarettes and alcohol, you are not afraid of being seen, even if you are not afraid of being seen, he is also afraid of being seen and gossiping, so if you will give gifts, we will go to find out his tone today." ”

Liu Haobing could only nod, and after Mei Anning's reminder, Liu Haobing felt as if he didn't know how to be an official, and his concept of being an official was all wrong.

Mei Anning and Liu Haobing got into Mei Anning's car and walked quickly towards the Provincial Department of Transportation, there were many pedestrians on the road, the car was very slow, and it took about half an hour to walk to the door of the Provincial Department of Transportation.

Liu Haobing, Mei Anning and Liu Honggang got out of the car, Liu Haobing looked up at the 'Nanyun Provincial Department of Communications' a few gilded characters, indescribable might, such a high gatehouse, how many happiness of the masses in control, those sitting here in the official, a little impure thinking, will cause immeasurable harm to the masses, Liu Haobing suddenly felt, when the country can be free of corrupt officials and mediocre officials, sitting in these tall gatehouses are all good officials who serve the people, then the masses will have a better life.

Mei Anning saw Liu Haobing pondering, and said, "Haobing, hurry in!"

The two security guards standing at the door seemed to know Mei Anning, and said with a smile: "Editor-in-chief Mei is here, come and register!"

Mei Anning hurriedly walked over, took out a cigarette from her body, handed one to the security guard, and said, "I don't know if Director Gong is here?"

One of the chubby security guards said, "Director Gong is here, I saw him come today, his car didn't go out, he should be in the office." ”

Mei Anning smiled after hearing this: "That's good, I'll go to Director Gong for something." ”

The security guard smiled and said, "Editor-in-chief Mei, I'm really sorry, do you have an appointment with Director Gong?"

Editor-in-chief Mei knew what the security room meant, and said, "I have something to do with Director Gong, and I'll leave when I'm done." ”

The security guard said: "Editor-in-chief Mei is really sorry, we are acquaintances, I don't embarrass you, you wait here for a while, I'll go to the secretary department for you to ask, see if Director Gong is idle now, do you want to see you." ”

Editor-in-chief Mei knew the genealogy of these officials in the officialdom, so he said: "Brother security, thank you, so let's do it, I'll call Director Gong to see if he wants to see me." ”

When the security guard heard that Editor-in-Chief Mei was going to call Director Gong, he said happily: "That's the best, you are so familiar with Director Gong, it's okay to make a phone call and ask, otherwise, we will put you in private, and you will be punished." ”

Although Mei Anning is the editor-in-chief of Nanyun Daily, many officials in the officialdom of Nanyun Province have taken the initiative to befriend him, mainly because those officials are afraid of the power of the media, and maybe sometimes a bad report will ruin their lives.

Mei Anning took out the phone and quickly dialed Director Gong's number.

Liu Haobing watched nervously from the side, he and Liu Honggang were like two fools.

The phone beeped twice and connected.

Mei Anning hurriedly said: "Director Gong, I am Mei Anning, the editor-in-chief of Nanyun Daily, do you have time, I have something to report to you!"

A mellow voice came from the other end of the phone and said: "It's Editor-in-Chief Mei, what's the matter, I'm in the unit today, why don't you come over, if it's not convenient, then I'll go to your newspaper office in person!"

Director Gong thought he had his own report, so he hurriedly said politely.

Mei Anning said after hearing this: "Editor-in-chief Mei, I am now in the doorman's office of your traffic hall, and the two little brothers won't let me in, why don't you tell them." ”

"Then you call them, and I'll have the secretary pick you up!"

Mei Anning handed the phone to the security guard next to her, and the little security guard quickly took the phone and said, "Director Gong, I'll let Editor-in-Chief Mei come in immediately." ”

The voice of Director Gong came from the phone and said, "Xiao He, when Editor-in-Chief Mei comes to me in the future, I will let me in directly, and I don't need to report it." ”

The security guard named Xiao He hurriedly agreed.

Liu Haobing didn't expect that Mei Anning, the editor-in-chief of a newspaper, would be so important in the eyes of these officials.

At this time, a young man hurriedly ran to the doorman, and saw Editor-in-Chief Mei and said with a smile: "Editor-in-Chief Mei, you are here, Director Gong will let you go up." ”

This young man has black hair, combs three or seven points, a Chinese face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looks very energetic.

Mei Anning shook hands with the young man and said, "Secretary Song, thank you for your hard work." ”

This person is none other than Director Gong's secretary Song Lichun.

Mei Anning hurriedly introduced Liu Haobing to Song Lichun, and when Song Lichun heard that Liu Haobing was the head of Goushi Township, he also showed his intimacy.

After greetings, Mei Anning hurriedly followed Song Lichun towards Director Gong's office.

The four of them came to the elevator, Secretary Song pressed the elevator, Mei Anning, Liu Haobing and Liu Honggang got on the elevator, and the elevator swished up.

Although Liu Haobing went to university in the provincial capital, when he graduated, except for some high-end places with elevators, there were no elevators in other places, just like the municipal government of Liudong City, and there were no elevators, which made Liu Haobing more in awe of the Transportation Department.
