The Vice Premier's speech greatly lifted the mood of the crowd, and the atmosphere in the conference room instantly rose up, and the warm applause and the smiles on everyone's faces made the reception event a success.

The vice premier seemed to enjoy such a scene, looked around the conference room with satisfaction, and then withdrew his gaze and raised his wrist to look at his watch, turned his face sideways and said to Lin Dongsheng wittily: "It's not too early, don't say too much." At the beginning of getting off the bus, it is to give instructions and speak, and it is inevitable to make subjective and bureaucratic mistakes, so let's talk about it after reading it! If you take care of the meal at noon, you can do it, and I'm really hungry after eating in the morning. ”

The vice premier's witty and humorous expression shows his happy mood at the moment, and Lin Dongsheng can certainly clearly perceive that he is in the center of the stars and the moon all the year round, and his authority and position make the ability to control the scene and self-confidence have reached a state of flowing water and being free and natural, without a trace but unimpeded. Not only is the vice premier free to apply, but Lin Dongsheng is also one of the masters, so he naturally knows all this.

The so-called officials crushed people to death at the first level,

This is not only a reality, but also a helpless fact, and position and power bring not only authority, but also a kind of freedom to act as you like. Although these are more artistic expressions among high-level cadres, they cannot change the reality of existence. The vice premier and the Hohai Provincial Party Committee, as well as Lin Dongsheng, are not in the same power system, but the power brought by the position still makes Lin Dongsheng jealous, after all, the relationship between the top leaders is complicated, as the leader of the local party committee, Lin Dongsheng has no need to touch these authorities, and it will affect the overall work of himself and even Hohai Province. What's more, the vice premier and his entourage were invited by the gods with great difficulty, and of course they were reluctantly treated. In addition, the vice premier is still quite supportive and caring for the work of Hohai Province, and has given Hohai great preferential conditions and practical support to Hohai several times for research. Of course, Lin Dongsheng is willing to receive this time, and it can also bring corresponding returns.

Perhaps it was because of the full mental preparation and the plan made in advance that Lin Dongsheng understood the vice premier's humor, and looked at the vice premier with a slight smile and responded: "Eat pot pulp, wait for the guests, but I don't know what you want to eat?" I don't dare to say that I have everything, but I can still do my best. ”

"Brocade clothes and jade food, wine pond meat forest, that is the extravagance of the emperor, unnecessary and unnecessary, the belly is so big, a bowl of noodles and a bowl of rice are enough!" Listening to Lin Dongsheng's answer, the vice premier seemed to be very satisfied, so he didn't wait for invitation, took the lead in standing up, looked at Lin Dongsheng with a gentle smile, glanced at Qi Tianxiang again, and then smiled at Wang Hai and said: "As long as we put it forward, Comrade Dongsheng and Comrade Tianxiang can put up the whole banquet of the Han Dynasty, even if it does not reach this level, the taste of the hometown and the family meal can still be done at any time." ”

Of course, Wang Hai understood the meaning of the vice premier's words, so he looked at Qi Tianxiang meaningfully and smiled, and responded: "Food culture is not only a matter of cups, plates, bowls, and cups, but also culture in it, and there is a lot of room for flickering and moving. ”

"It's still Comrade Wang Hai's summary in place, and he is three points in one sentence." The vice premier looked at Qi Tianxiang's slightly smiling expression, knowing that he understood what this dumb riddle conversation meant, so he laughed out loud and said, "Then let's look forward to the appearance of surprises!" See how different this mystery is. ”

Although the mystery has not been revealed, whether it is Lin Dongsheng, Wang Hai, or Qi Tianxiang, they all know the mystery in this. The courtesy received by Minister Wang of the Ministry of Environmental Protection in Shanyin County spread not only to the officialdom of Hehai, but also to Beijing, and of course to the ears of the vice premier and Wang Hai.

Entrusted by the State Council, Minister of Environmental Protection Yao Bingxin led an investigation team to Shanyin County to deal with water pollution and environmental damage. Although they are all inconspicuous ordinary dishes, after Qi Tianxiang's careful arrangement and layout, not only let Yao Bingxin eat the hometown and nostalgia, eat the taste of his hometown and mother, but also eat the important experience of life, which makes Yao Bingxin refreshing, and also brings the relationship between the investigation team of the State Council and the Hehai Provincial Government closer. A simple meal, full of Qi Tianxiang's understanding thoughtfulness and thoughtfulness, also made a good story.

Without allowing Qi Tianxiang to think about it, the vice premier had already taken the lead and walked outside the conference room.

So much so that Lin Dongsheng had to take a few steps, follow the vice premier and guide everyone towards the restaurant. It was still the formation when they came in, Vice Premier and Lin Dongsheng were in the forefront, followed by Qi Tianxiang and Wang Hai, followed by Li Zhengguo and Qin Liang and other Standing Committee members, as well as Luo Jian, Sun Pingfang and other vice governors, as well as the heads of the Provincial Department of Civil Affairs, the Department of Agriculture, the Department of Water Resources and the Office of Poverty Alleviation, accompanied by the vice premier and his party, forming a magnificent group.

As the reception hotel of the Provincial Party Committee, Nanjiao Hotel usually has a lot of people coming and going, and they are all figures with heads and faces in Hohai Province, and in a sense, it has also become an important political center of Hohai Province. But today is different from the past, there are important leaders coming, and the arrangement work is naturally upgraded to a higher level, so the vice premier and Lin Dongsheng and his entourage walked through the corridor of this courtyard-style hotel, which did not cause onlookers and chaotic scenes.

Under the guidance of the staff, the group entered the dining room, and three round dining tables were placed in the spacious dining room, forming a zigzag layout, and two parallel dining tables set off the position of the main table where the leading comrades were seated more prominently. Without too much humility, everyone was seated in an orderly manner according to their ranks and positions, the vice premier and Lin Dongsheng, Qi Tianxiang, Wang Hai and other leaders sat at a table, and the heads of several departments and bureaus were divided into two groups to accompany the visiting guests to their seats. It's still something we take for granted, but it's also much more normal and natural.

After everyone sat down and quieted down, Lin Dongsheng slowly stood up and looked at the vice premier, and delivered a speech with a warm smile: "Honorable Vice Premier, Honorable Director Wang Hai, comrades of the Poverty Alleviation Office of the State Council, on behalf of the Hehai Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government, and in my personal name, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks and warm welcome to all the leaders and distinguished guests for coming to Hehai and guiding our work. ”

Lin Dongsheng's emotional welcome speech was echoed by the warm applause of everyone present, Lin Dongsheng had to pause, and waited until the applause gradually subsided before continuing: "Because of the itinerary and time, the welcome banquet originally scheduled to be held in the evening had to be held at noon. This may have an impact on the gathering, but it does not affect our sincere hospitality, joy and gratitude. ”

Lin Dongsheng's subtle words attracted a burst of good-natured laughter, expressing everyone's feelings and responses. Although Lin Dongsheng did not say it explicitly, everyone knew that because there was still work to be done in the afternoon, and all departments at all levels had clear rules that they should not drink alcohol for lunch. This brings some disturbance to the atmosphere of the banquet, although there are workarounds, you can drink a small amount of red wine and beer, but compared to the welcome banquet held in the evening, the atmosphere and scene will still be very different, and it also makes the meaning of receiving the wind and washing the dust greatly discounted.

But this is also a matter of no choice, the vice premier and his entourage will leave for Huayi City after lunch, and the time they stay in Hezhou City, that is, this morning and noon, it is not appropriate not to hold a welcome banquet, and excessive publicity is also worried that it will cause the vice premier's unhappiness. Therefore, the plan discussed in advance is to simply hold a ceremony to express the intentions of the provincial party committee and the provincial government.

"It's a pleasure to have friends from afar. This is the essence of folk customs that has been passed down for thousands of years in Ho Hai, a province with a long cultural tradition and civilization, which not only shows the hospitality of the people of Ho Hai Province, but also shows the kindness and sincerity of the people in this region. Lin Dongsheng continued after laughter: "Today we want to express our most sincere feelings with a simple and simple diet, and I hope that the distinguished leaders and comrades can feel our true feelings, which is our greatest wish." ”

"We feel this wish, and we can also appreciate the depth of the river and sea culture, it is not too much to say that this trip is worthwhile, as a good intention, we understand it." After Lin Dongsheng finished his welcome speech, the vice premier followed Lin Dongsheng's words, looked at Lin Dongsheng and everyone gently, and said: "It's just a meal, there is no need to be so thoughtful, the mind will arrive, as long as I can see the rapid changes in the economy and society of Hohai Province and feel the spirit brought by the changes, I will feel satisfied." ”

The Vice Premier's words were easy and full of expectations, and he slowly looked around at everyone with gentle eyes and said: "It is my greatest wish and greatest gain to have time to meet with the comrades working at the grassroots level, to see their mental state and work status, to hear the insights they have gained in their work, as well as the problems and contradictions they have discovered, and to jointly explore ways and means to solve them." I hope that all of you here will continue to brace your spirits, work diligently and pragmatically, and make outstanding contributions to economic progress and improvement of people's livelihood. ”

The Deputy Prime Minister's words of encouragement and gentle expression gave great encouragement to everyone and also received warm and sustained applause. This gave the welcome party a warm and cheerful atmosphere, which lasted until the end of the brief lunch.
