Chapter 180: Entering Beijing (21)
Guo Xiaozhou threw this kind of thing out of the sky when he went out. In one sentence: "Those who achieve great things do not dwell on small things." β
He was very glad to see Zhao Weiguo clearly.
When passing by the hall, he saw the backs of Cheng Gang and others from the gap in the decorative shelves. To be honest, he really wanted to help Cheng Gang. As the saying goes, helping others is helping yourself. Forming good relationships in officialdom will only pay off in the future.
Of course, his first impression of Cheng Gang was very good, and getting to know a young high-ranking official who was very likely to ascend to the vice ministerial level was both an opportunity and a challenge for him. Once you succeed in helping, you can lay a solid foundation for your future.
The so-called one fence with three piles, a hero with three gangs, he can't completely rely on a group of sons and brothers to support the field. Whether we can go higher and farther in the future will definitely be inseparable from the support of high-level figures at the provincial level.
Perhaps at some critical moment, this good fate will bear the fruits of success.
When he returned to his Casablanca room, the three brothers were waiting for him.
Luo Yunsheng saw that his cheeks were red, and his tone was slightly deep, "How many drinks have you had in the past?" β
Guo Xiaozhou smiled lightly: "There are not a few cups, but I am a little anxious......"
Pei Jintan chuckled and said, "Xiaozhou, don't say that Senior Brother didn't remind you, you should follow this Zhao Weiguo a little less in the future......"
Zheng Zesheng narrowed his eyes and asked, "Lao Pei, what do you see?" β
Pei Jintan shook his head, "What can be seen in a few words is just a feeling and judgment." This person is arrogant, likes to play tricks, and is not worthy of being a friend, let alone a collaborator. β
Guo Xiaozhou said in his heart, the eyes of the senior brothers were vicious, and he accepted it very humbly, "Thank you, senior brother, for reminding me." I'll know what to do later. β
Zheng Zesheng suddenly asked, "The people squatting outside seem to be gone?" β
Guo Xiaozhou was just about to speak, his mobile phone rang, he made an apologetic expression, picked up his mobile phone and walked outside the door to answer.
The call was from Ding Xiaoning.
"Is it a small continent?"
"It's me, Sister Xiao Ning!"
Ding Xiaoning was silent on the phone for a long time, and said quietly: "It's the relationship you are looking for, I know, only you know about it." I received a notice from the company in the afternoon that I should take the exam. β
"It's okay, what I said must be done. Besides, it's not a big deal, and you deserve the exam qualifications. β
"Thank you! Where are you? Ding Xiaoning said softly: "I have to express it no matter what, whether it is to thank you or to take the ......wind for you."
Guo Xiaozhou was embarrassed: "I'm having dinner with someone......"
"Don't be afraid, I won't mess up, just do my best to be a landlord."
Everyone has said this, Guo Xiaozhou can only say euphemistically: "I'll contact you when I'm done." β
"Good! I'll wait for your call. Drink less. Good bye! Ding Xiaoning took the initiative to hang up the phone after speaking.
Guo Xiaozhou sighed, straightened his chest, pushed the door and walked into the room.
He returned to his seat, poured himself full of wine, stood up and said to Pei Jintan, "Little brother respects senior brother!" All the camaraderie and gratitude are in this drink. β
Pei Jin Tan Gang said: "Don't finish drinking......"
But Guo Xiaozhou has already drunk it all.
"You kid, it's not okay to drink like this in the future...... Pei Jintan raised his wine glass with a smile, accompanied Guo Xiaozhou, and drank it all.
Guo Xiaozhou then picked up the wine glass again and said to Zheng Zesheng: "This glass of wine is for senior brother!" β
Luo Yunsheng, who was on the side, quickly grabbed Guo Xiaozhou's wine glass and said softly: "There are many opportunities to toast, don't drink it today." β
Guo Xiaozhou smiled and said to Luo Yunsheng, "I promise this is the last glass of wine today." And I have to salute Senior Brother Zheng for this glass of wine. β
"Is there anything special about this toast?" Luo Yunsheng looked at Guo Xiaozhou meaningfully, and slowly let go of the hand covering the wine glass.
"Yes!" Guo Xiaozhou scratched his head and decided to say bluntly: "I want to ask for a favor for the Xihai Provincial Water Conservancy Department." β
Zheng Zesheng sighed, when Guo Xiaozhou said the word "yes", he expected that it should be related to the chasers outside the door. The current local officials "run the department to make money", there are all kinds of methods, all kinds of surprises, not to mention the relationship between him and Guo Xiaozhou, some of the relationships are about to be pulled to the ancestors.
He smiled calmly. This matter seems to have nothing to do with Guo Xiaozhou, but if you take a closer look, it is still related. For example, resource exchange, merit, favors, and so on. Officialdom is a concentration camp for talents, and when you open your eyes, you are all elites, and everyone has a few brushes. Whoever is given a good platform can almost always succeed. Unless the insatiable drink is too incompetent. If at a critical moment, Cheng Gang can say a word for him in the West Sea, this is an opportunity and opportunity.
He can give this favor. But the problem is that he doesn't understand Cheng Gang's character, and now there are so many people crossing the river and demolishing bridges, not to mention officialdom.
Seeing that Zheng Zesheng didn't say anything for a long time. Guo Xiaozhou smiled and said, "Don't embarrass my senior brother." I'll turn them down in a moment. β
Zheng Zesheng smiled, "This matter must be difficult, and it involves the distribution and balance of interests in the ministry." But it's not impossible. In the more than 20 years since the reform, the central government has invested an unimaginably large amount of funds in water conservancy construction in local provinces and municipalities. The central funding arrangement is also the same as that of the local government, whoever will shout, who shouts reasonably, and who has the taste of his parents will have candy to eat. β
Zheng Zesheng said this, after a slight pause, he said: "The construction funds of the Ministry of Water Resources have been tilted towards the central and western regions in recent years, and then the management of major rivers, and there is little support for developed coastal areas. The developed coastal areas have been making trouble, and recently they have become more and more violent, and the State Council and the Central Committee Office have inquired about it several times. Therefore, this year's investment will focus on coastal provinces. This is a key decision in the allocation of resources within the ministry. β
Guo Xiaozhou suddenly realized, "So the allocation of Xihai Province is much less than in previous years?" β
"One radish and one pit, the central government has so much funds, more to the western provinces, less to the east, more to the eastern provinces, and less to the western provinces." When Zheng Zesheng said this, he suddenly asked, "Do you know Cheng Gang?" β
Guo Xiaozhou told the truth, "Today is the first time I have met him. β
"That's ......" Zheng Zesheng's tone suddenly turned stern, "It's not that I can't help you, I'm afraid that people won't admit it after helping you." In this case, the gains outweigh the losses. β
"In fact, whether officials need opportunities or resources, all official turnover is actually following a simple and universal rule: survival of the fittest." Luo Yunsheng said: "Today's officials need to adapt to the needs of the times. In a period when the class struggle is the key link, it must be the rebels who rise quickly; When economic construction is the center, cadres engaged in economic construction will come up; Officials who can both develop the economy and manage society are now easily selected. Xiao Zhou, you are actually on the right path now. Lay a solid foundation at the grassroots level. Of course, if there are people on the upper floor, the road will be smoother and the speed will be faster. β
Bae Jintan also smiled and said, "I remember a few years ago when we discussed whether the place is better or Kyoto is better, and this topic was touched. In Kyoto, officials need to adapt to the needs of the capital's positioning, such as a strong sense of international vision, awareness of the overall situation, and a sense of modernity, a high level of administration according to law, and a special emphasis on political and social stability. Because Kyoto is the capital, and the government is the first, the official's government is particularly important."
Luo Yunsheng said: "Kyoto, as the capital, guards the central government, and it is intertwined from top to bottom, left and right, which requires higher coordination skills of officials. The ability to deal with a variety of complex issues is also a must for Kyoto cadres. For example, now, Lao Zheng is in a complicated situation. β
Guo Xiaozhou knew that the two senior brothers were speaking for him openly and secretly, and he said softly: "I hope I didn't see the wrong person." Cheng Gang feels good to me. Even if there is no exchange of interests, I hope to contribute to my hometown and make friends. β
"Okay. I also do my best for my little brother. β
As soon as Zheng Zesheng's words came out, Guo Xiaozhou said in surprise and joy: "Thank you, Senior Brother Zheng......"
Zheng Zesheng said: "Don't say thank you yet. When you become strong in the future, it is the best thank you for the few of us. Besides, if this thing is done, the Xihai water conservancy department should find another way, and there is no normal reason, and I dare not touch the plate in the ministry without normal reasons. β
Guo Xiaozhou said with a serious face, "I will do my best." β
"In this case, you tell SΓΉ Chenggang and ask them to immediately start writing an investment implementation plan for the emergency repair of water conservancy and irrigation projects and dangerous reservoirs in Xihai Province, and report them to the Ministry of Water Resources as much as possible. The contents of the report must firmly grasp the needs of agricultural production and the key points of reservoir facilities that have been in disrepair for many years. β
"I made a note of it." Guo Xiaozhou replied.
Luo Yunsheng raised his glass and drank a glass of wine with Zheng Zesheng, and asked in a low voice, "Will there be any opinions in the ministry if you do this?" β
Zheng Zesheng said with a smile: "You must be famous, so this report is very important." What the current leaders are most afraid of is that they are afraid of accidents under their rule, agricultural disasters, and disasters in the reservoir area. When such a report is sent, no one in the ministry leader dares to refuse to give it, and it can also silence the mouths of the provinces and maintain the balance of interests in the ministry. Of course, it is obviously unrealistic to want a large-scale tilt of funds. But this report can get special governance funds. In terms of total funding, it can reach or even exceed the total level of Tay Hai Province last year. β
Guo Xiaozhou exclaimed: "Admire! I really admire! Senior brother's clever trick ......"
Zheng Zesheng laughed at himself: "What a magic trick." If I weren't in this position, I wouldn't have been able to send such a report. The ministers can't see it, and the accident naturally has nothing to do with him. If you see it, you have to have an answer. β
Guo Xiaozhou knew that he would definitely have to sacrifice some resources and interests, and he said gratefully: "Cheng Gang said that he would invite you to sit together." β
This "sitting" means that Cheng Gang is about to express his gratitude. As for gratitude, everyone knows it, and it is rude and wealthy.
Zheng Zesheng shook his head lightly, "This favor is all yours, and I won't see his face." To tell you the truth, I don't dare to accept a needle from someone I don't know, you understand? β
Guo Xiaozhou nodded, "Understood!" That's what I'm going to do with him so that they can organize a report right away! β
