Chapter 80: Blocking the Road
Li Dongsheng didn't speak, just looked at Du Zhuqing, waiting for her explanation.
Du Zhuqing didn't sell it, and then said: "You are young and have no foundation, if you want to go up in the system, you must have good political achievements." The most important thing is that you are young, and even if you don't succeed in the end, you can start all over again. β
"This reason seems weak?"
Li Dongsheng subconsciously thought that this was made up by Du Zhuqing temporarily, and other reasons should not be enough to convince him. Hence this plausible explanation.
Du Zhuqing shook his head and said: "No, this reason is enough, just because you are young, so you should take this opportunity to fight hard, so as not to leave regrets." β
Li Dongsheng thought for a moment and said, "If I can become a township chief or a secretary, I will follow what you say." β
"I'll do my best to support you, but it's more up to you." As he spoke, Du Zhuqing's words changed: "There is another big premise, waiting for you to sit in that seat." β
Li Dongsheng knew that the message that Du Zhuqing passed on to him was that he might not be able to sit in that seat, and everything could be there until the last moment. Even if a resolution has been formed, it is possible to change. Moreover, such examples are not uncommon.
"Lately, you've taken the time to prepare, so you don't know where to start."
Li Dongsheng nodded first, and then said, "I understand, don't say it, drink." β
Seeing Li Dongsheng raise his wine glass, Du Zhuqing picked up the glass and touched it, and after the crisp sound, Li Dongsheng dried the beer in the cup in one gulp. Du Zhuqing still only took a small sip.
Seeing that Du Zhuqing had eaten two mouthfuls of food, Li Dongsheng asked, "County Magistrate Du, can you ask a question?" β
"You want to know why I'm going to help you?"
Li Dongsheng didn't deny it, just looked at Du Zhuqing.
But what Du Zhuqing said surprised him very much, what she said was: "Why is your skin so good?" Do you have any skincare secrets? β
Li Dongsheng was a little unable to adapt to this leaping thinking, but he still immediately said: "No way, this is innate." Besides, I'm not an actor, so there's no need to spend time and energy on skincare. β
"You're not right, do you like wrinkles and chapped faces?"
"Am I so perverted?"
"I don't have a say on this issue because I don't know you, heheγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»"
Li Dongsheng didn't expect Du Zhuqing to joke, so he laughed along.
He decided to take the opportunity to learn more about Du Zhuqing, so he asked, "County Magistrate Du, is your boyfriend also in the system?" β
Du Zhuqing was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Sort of." β
Regarding Du Zhuqing's words, Li Dongsheng was very puzzled, yes, yes, no, no, what does this mean.
Although he knew that Li Dongsheng was very puzzled in his heart, Du Zhuqing did not explain, but picked up the glass and raised it towards Li Dongsheng.
With this joke, the atmosphere that follows is much more relaxed. While eating, the two discussed current affairs, and derived various news to express their opinions.
While Li Dongsheng and Du Zhuqing were drinking and chatting on it, Ou Zhenbang was eating in another small restaurant not far away. In a bad mood, he had a big deal with this kind of small restaurant with a worrying hygienic condition, and after the food came up, he only ate a few bites and put down his chopsticks. I asked for a glass, scalded it with boiling water, poured half a glass of white water, and drank it occasionally.
As time went on, his mood became more and more irritable. Every time the phone rang, he quickly picked it up, and when he saw the caller number, his disappointment was immediately overflowing.
And just like that, an hour passed quickly. Ou Zhenbang has realized what it means to live like a year.
Although he was disappointed every time the phone rang, every time the phone rang, he immediately picked it up.
Finally, as the third hour was about to begin, the phone screen showed the number he wanted, and he answered the call as fast as he could.
A man's voice came from the phone: "They're out. β
"Hmm." Ou Zhenbang hung up the phone directly, then got up and walked to the window.
Although he waited for the call he wanted, his mood was extremely bad. Because Du Zhuqing and the man ate for two hours. And this is something he has never enjoyed here in Du Zhuqing. He thinks that the reason why Du Zhuqing is so cold to him is because of that man.
When I walked out of Ah Hui's kitchen, I looked at the time, and it was exactly two hours past. They each drank a bottle of beer, but they drank it very slowly. I ate a bowl of rice each, and most of the time I was talking. The two men spoke in a wide range of ways, first with their views on domestic and foreign news, and then with anecdotes and history.
It can be said that the two are having an in-depth exchange. They all realize that this is a necessary process, and without understanding, there is no cooperation. Li Dongsheng can't easily take refuge in Du Zhuqing, and in the same way, Du Zhuqing won't accept Li Dongsheng casually. There is a process in between. This conversation will bring the two closer together and lay the groundwork for the upcoming collaboration.
There is no shortage of sycophants around the leader, but the leader does not need to be a sycophant, which is not beneficial to his work. The best subordinates are those who are both capable and can make sycophants. But such people are rare, and capable people generally have a sense of arrogance.
During the two-hour conversation, both of them learned some about each other's personalities and worldviews. It is obviously impossible to fully understand through a single conversation, and the rest is only to gradually understand in the future.
However, it was this conversation that the alliance between the two had been tentatively decided. said that it was an alliance, but in fact, Li Dongsheng took refuge in Du Zhuqing. Together, the two fight for their future. In this process, Li Dongsheng is responsible for creating political achievements, and Du Zhuqing is responsible for clearing obstacles for Li Dongsheng, and at the same time, he does not let others steal Li Dongsheng's achievements.
If there was no one up there, this would have happened. The act of picking peaches has existed since ancient times, and if you want to climb up without a background, you can only do it by constantly making meritorious contributions. But the merit is not so easy to stand. People with backgrounds and backers are different, they can make some credit out of thin air without credit, and small credits can be magnified into big credits, and there is absolutely no need to worry that someone will be greedy for their own credit.
Of course, it is not excluded that some leaders are more upright and appreciate capable people, but there are not too many such people. As long as you are human, you are selfish. No one will use an unfamiliar person, and even if they have the ability. The reason, of course, is the concern of all sides.
Li Dongsheng is in a very good mood because he has a backer. Although I have not yet experienced the superiority of being covered, I can imagine it.
At this time, there was no longer a minibus, and if Li Dongsheng wanted to go back, he could only fly.
"I'm sorry, I'm afraid you're going to have to stay in a hotel."
"It's okay, I'll send you back first, and then I'll find a hotel."
"No, I'll just turn a corner."
"As you said, it's just a turn, and it's kind of a stop."
Seeing Li Dongsheng say this, Du Zhuqing no longer insisted.
"Forgot to ask what your girlfriend does?"
Li Dongsheng was a little uncomfortable with Du Zhuqing's jumping thinking, but he didn't say anything unusual: "I talked about one in college, but her family didn't look down on me, so they broke up." Not long ago, they had a blind date, and they didn't hate each other, so they decided to get along for a while. β
"What do you do?"
"Teacher, it's in this county."
"Then you don't have to go to a hotel, now you live together when you fall in love."
"We're just trying to get along." Li Dongsheng reminded that he looked at Du Zhuqing's eyes more and more strangely.
In fact, Du Zhuqing is very beautiful, not that kind of softness, with a strong heroic posture. However, Li Dongsheng knew that he was not her cup of tea, and he did not have this idea. Even if he had an idea, a woman like Du Zhuqing was not something he could touch.
Du Zhuqing didn't bother with that question, and instead asked, "Isn't it fun to go on a blind date?" β
"I didn't think it was fun." Li Dongsheng asked rhetorically: "Have you ever been on a blind date?" β
"Yes, but I didn't go once, and my mother was very angry about it."
"Blind date is Chinese characteristics."
"Who's to say it isn't? In China, if you don't get married when you reach the age of age, you will be bombarded by your parents, relatives and friends. β
"Then you have to marry yourself off quickly, otherwise, you will be annoyed to death, heheheγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»"
Soon, the two arrived at the gate of the compound, and watching Du Zhuqing's back disappear around the corner, Li Dongsheng turned around and prepared to find a place where no one was taking off his clothes and flying back.
But he didn't go far before he was stopped by three people.
(I went to work today, so I changed it.) οΌ
