After Shen Zihao heard Cao Weigang's answer, his face was a little ugly, and he snorted coldly and said, "I think you two must have bought it with the support funds for the construction of the crayon highway from the National Development and Reform Commission, right?"

Li Tianyi and Cao Weigang nodded at the same time. Now that everyone has rushed over together, there is no need to hide it anymore. Shen Zihao said very generously: "Since the purpose of our visit is the same, I don't think there is any need for us to engage in those small actions in private, let's go to Director Shi Dekang together, fair competition, do you have any opinions?"

Li Tianyi and Cao Weigang glanced at each other and nodded lightly at the same time.

For the three of them, everyone is smart, and since everyone's purpose is the same, fair competition is more suitable for the character of the three.

When the three of them came to the guard duty room together to report their names, they were taken aback by the old man in the duty room, and hurriedly made a phone call to Shi Dekang, director of the National Development and Reform Commission.

Shi Dekang was also surprised to learn that the three mayors had come to the NDRC together, and immediately asked the office director to go out to greet him.

The three of them came to Shi Dekang's office together, and after taking a seat, Dekang looked at the three of them with a smile and asked, "Three, I don't know why you came together?"

Cao Weigang was silent, Li Tianyi looked at Shen Zihao, Shen Zihao glared at Li Tianyi fiercely, and said: "Director Shi, the main reason why we came here today is to win the support funds of the National Development and Reform Commission for the construction of expressways in various cities for our respective prefectures and cities. ”

Shi Dekang frowned and glanced at the three of them and said, "Do the three of you plan to get each of them a sum of money back, or do you plan to compete for a sum of money together?"

Shen Zihao hurriedly said: "Each of us naturally plans to take a sum of money back, but if that's the case, I'm afraid that more monks and less porridge will not help, rather than this, it is better to concentrate these funds on the family, which will be useful." ”

Li Tianyi and Cao Weigang also nodded lightly in agreement.

Shi Dekang glanced at the three of them with a smile and said: "Since you all mean this, then I will not be suspicious of you, I can tell you clearly, our National Development and Reform Commission does have a billion special funds for transportation construction, but just some time ago, we just held an internal meeting to decide to divide the billion into three parts, and we have a total of 11 cities in Tianning Province, basically only one of every three or four cities can get this support fund."

Shen Zihao immediately smiled and said: "Director Shi, if this is the case, then I think it is just right, our three prefectures and cities compete for one of the funds, and the other eight prefectures and cities compete for the other two funds, do you think it's okay? And our three prefectures and cities are very distinctive, representing our Tianning Province's relatively developed economy, moderately developed and underdeveloped regions, we are all typical representatives of their respective types, and it is more appropriate to have our three prefectures and cities to compete for this fund." ”

Shi Dekang was silent for a while, nodded and said: "It's okay, since you are willing to compete for this fund together, I don't have any problem, as for the amount of this fund, I think it's ......."

Before Shi Dekang could speak, Cao Weigang suddenly said: "Director Shi, I think it's 400 million, we will take 400 million here, and the other cities will be divided into two parts and take 300 million each." ”

Shi Dekang said with a smile: "I said Cao Weigang, don't you think it's too much for your three prefectures to take 400 million? People can only compete for three months every four prefectures and cities, isn't this a bit too much?"

Cao Wei just glanced at Li Tianyi, Li Tianyi immediately understood, and explained with a smile: " Director Shi, if calculated by quantity, the three of us competing for 400 million yuan are indeed more advantageous than the other four competing for 300 million, but don't forget, the mayors of our three prefectures and cities are all just in office, and we are all relatively young, compared with the mayors of other prefectures and cities, we are facing more pressure, Director Shi, should you give more support to our young cadres, after all, the country is now vigorously advocating the younger cadres?"

Listening to the reason given by Li Tianyi for unreasonable stirring up three points, Shi Dekang showed a helpless wry smile on his face, the reason given by Li Tianyi is not a reason, it seems a little far-fetched on the surface, but he can't find anything wrong, the most important thing is that these three people are indeed very young, and they can be promoted to the position of mayor at the department level at such a young age, so it only shows one point, that is, the future of these three people is infinitely bright.

And Shi Dekang had already heard the rumors that the three of them were going to be assessed simultaneously, so he didn't want to offend these three people.

And how to distribute the billions of funds is only a matter of his words, so after hesitating for a moment, he nodded lightly and said, "Okay, then the three of you will compete for the 400 million support funds." How are you going to compete?"

Shen Zihao rolled his eyes, and immediately said: "Director Shi, I think the three of us should adopt a fair, just and open competition, so that even if everyone loses, they will lose convincingly."

If you think this will work, the National Development and Reform Commission will set up a review team, and the three of us will take turns to explain the highway planning plan of our three cities in front of the review team, and the judges will score on the spot. And from now until the results of the review come out, the three of us will always stay together to prevent any one of us from doing PR alone.

As for the judging team, you will personally select the number of people, Director Shi, and the number of people will also be determined by you, what do you think?"

Shi Dekang looked at Cao Weigang and Li Tianyi and asked, "What do you think?"

Li Tianyi immediately said: "I don't have any opinion, I agree." ”

Cao Weigang also nodded lightly and said, "I also agree with this opinion." ”

Shi Dekang immediately clapped his head and said: "Okay, since the three of you have no opinions, then you can go to the conference room and wait now, and I will organize the reviewers." ”

After Shi Dekang finished speaking, he turned to leave, and after a while, a staff member came over and led the three of them to the meeting room of the National Development and Reform Commission.

After sitting down in the conference room, Shen Zihao looked at Li Tianyi and said, "Li Tianyi, I feel that you have lost this time." ”

Li Tianyi smiled and said: "I don't think so, Shen Zihao, if I'm not mistaken, it seems that in every competition and competition between us before, you didn't have the upper hand, right?"

Shen Zihao said with a smile: "At this time, in the context of today, to say that the strongest competitiveness of the three cities, it belongs to our Weining City, the reason is very simple, the economy of our Weining City is the best among our three cities, so we develop our highway network construction for the economic development of the entire Tianning Province, has a very important strategic position, and your Ningkang City, even if it is approved to you according to your planning, the economic driving role of this planning and construction is very limited." So, we are the most competitive. ”

Li Tianyi smiled slightly: " Shen Zihao, you have a lot of ghost eyes, you are obviously throwing bricks and attracting jade, you want to test it, what is the real reason why we have such competitive confidence in Ningkang City, I am really sorry, I will definitely say our core competitiveness, but definitely not now, if I tell you now, I will really be in the ring in a while, if you find a countermeasure according to the reasons I said, wouldn't I be dumbfounded, I'm sorry, you don't accept today's trick of throwing bricks and jade. ”

Shen Zihao smiled helplessly, he had to admit that Li Tianyi was too shrewd, and the reason why he said this was indeed to throw bricks and attract jade, and wanted to stimulate Li Tianyi to say their core competitiveness in advance through the method of agitation.

But he didn't expect that Li Tianyi would see through his goal at once, and he could only continue to wait helplessly.

Cao Weigang did not participate in the battle between the two from beginning to end, but he could hear every word said between the two clearly, especially what Shen Zihao said, he seriously refused, and a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes that was difficult for others to perceive.

Although Shen Zihao didn't put himself in his eyes at all, he directly set his competitor on Li Tianyi, and even did not hesitate to expose one of his core competitiveness to stimulate the cheap, but Cao Weigang was an extremely sensitive person, he immediately grasped the many information revealed in Shen Zihao's words, and after a comprehensive weighing and analysis in his heart, he quickly formulated a countermeasure.

The atmosphere in the conference room became quiet for a while, and none of the three of them said a word, because they could all feel the highly vigilant nerves of the other two competitors at this moment, and everyone was worried that they would not say the right thing, and the other two parties would seize the opportunity to formulate a targeted strategy.

At this moment, Shen Zihao was slandering Li Tianyi in his heart, and secretly regretted that he knew that Li Tianyi would be such a strategy, so he should not have exposed one of his core competitiveness in advance.

Fortunately, this core competitiveness is visible to everyone, even if you say it, it doesn't matter. The real core competitiveness he did not say.

Half an hour later, Shi Dekang came to the conference room with four of his men.

Sitting down opposite the three of them, Shi Dekang said with a smile: "Okay, the five of us are now members of the jury, and you can now start to express the competitiveness of your cities one by one." Which of you will speak first?"

Cao Weigang said suddenly: "Shen Zihao, when you first selected the prefecture and city allocation, you were the first to choose, should you be the first to tell this time?"

Shen Zihao smiled helplessly, nodded lightly and said, "Okay, that's fair, then I'll talk about it first." ”
