Chapter 80: The Distinction Between North and South
After Wang's nomination was rejected, the next step was to discuss the choice of the director of the transportation bureau. The Duan Standing Committee and the Qian Standing Committee continued to cooperate, and Gong Zhenghong's nomination was also vetoed, so that Zhao Changfeng and Wei Jianguo suffered a second defeat at the Standing Committee.
After the meeting was adjourned, the members of the Standing Committee of the Qian Department and the Standing Committee of the Duan Department were all happy. Qian Yunfeng and Duan Zhikui are more cultivated, they are not as happy as others, but they also feel happy in their hearts, and they have a feeling of raising their eyebrows. Yes, these sitting tigers have been suppressed very hard by Zhao Changfeng, a strong dragon who crosses the river, and today finally gave Xiao Zhao County Magistrate a hard blow, so that this young man understands that Yuehai County is still the world of Yuehai people.
"It's so unbelievable!" Wei Jianguo forcibly suppressed his anger, and only after returning to the office did he come out, "Duan Zhikui, Qian Yunfeng, what are they doing?" If you have an opinion, you don't say it at the secretary's office meeting, but you just talk nonsense at the Standing Committee, this is just a small action, I want to reflect it to Secretary Chen of the Municipal Party Committee! β
Zhao Changfeng sat quietly on the sofa with a teacup and didn't speak, and waited until Wei Jianguo finished venting before Zhao Changfeng handed over a cigarette and persuaded with a smile: "Squad leader, smoke a cigarette and dissipate your anger." β
said that he lit the lighter and sent it to Wei Jianguo. After Wei Jianguo lowered his head and lit a cigarette, Zhao Changfeng continued: "I think it's best not to alarm Secretary Chen about this matter, and it's no problem to let it go for the time being." Although the nomination was rejected, Wang Ducheng actually presided over the work of Housha Town, and the difference was just a name. Lao Zhang is temporarily presiding over the work of the Transportation Bureau, and there will be no problems. β
Of course, Wei Jianguo understands what Zhao Changfeng means, the leader will definitely not like the kind of subordinates who hand over the contradictions at every turn, as the squad leader of the leadership team, he can't even handle the other members of the team, from another point of view, does it mean that he is incompetent as a squad leader?
"Brother Changfeng, I understand what you mean." Wei Jianguo took two puffs of cigarette, "It's just that I really can't swallow this breath!" These people are just blatantly messing around! β
"Squad leader, on the other hand, doesn't it also show that some people's hearts are weak?" Zhao Changfeng chuckled: "The power to convene the Standing Committee is in your hands, are you afraid that these people will be able to turn the sky upside down?" β
Wei Jianguo's eyes lit up: That's right. Although it is said that these local Standing Committee members in Guangdong account for the majority, it is up to them to decide when the Standing Committee will be convened. Although their personnel nominations will be rejected by them, as long as they do not announce the convening of the Standing Committee, their personnel nominations will not even have a chance to sit on the Standing Committee. In a sense, this can be regarded as a stalemate in terms of personnel rights. However, the financial power of the following departments and units is firmly in the hands of Zhao Changfeng, and these local Standing Committee members in Yuehai County do not take advantage of it...... Seeing that Wei Jianguo's mind suddenly brightened, Zhao Changfeng put his mind at ease. After the end of the Standing Committee, he did not shy away from following Wei Jianguo, because he was worried that Wei Jianguo would not be able to stand this stimulation and stab the matter to Chen Tiangui, secretary of the Haizhou Municipal Party Committee. Although Duan Zhikui and Qian Yunfeng, the local Standing Committee members of Yuehai County, did too much, Zhao Changfeng still didn't want to leave the impression that the team was not united in the minds of the superior leaders...... "Secretary of Jianguo, an old friend came to see me at noon, would you like to go over for a light meal together?" Zhao Changfeng looked at his watch, and Liu Chi was about to arrive, so he sent an invitation to Wei Jianguo.
"Your old friends are meeting, I'm not going to join in the fun at noon, right?" Wei Jianguo said with a smile: "At noon, you will have a small gathering, and I will come to the east in the evening, and ask Secretary Liu to feel the enthusiasm of our people in Guangdong." β
"Secretary Jianguo, I have received your kindness, and I thank you for Secretary Liu. But it's really not necessary, it's not necessary. Zhao Changfeng stood up and said with a smile. He knew that Wei Jianguo was doing this to support his faΓ§ade.
"Brother Changfeng, this is how it should be." Wei Jianguo patted Zhao Changfeng on the shoulder, "You can be regarded as marrying us from Central Plains Province to Guangdong, how about letting your mother's family see the scenery of Brother Changfeng in Guangdong!" β
Speaking of which, Zhao Changfeng seemed a little angry if he refused again, he held Wei Jianguo's hand and said, "Then I can only obey the leader's arrangement." β
Wei Jianguo laughed proudly.
The reception banquet at noon is arranged in the small VIP hall on the second floor of the Municipal Party Committee. A total of eight people came to Bibei City, in addition to Liu Chi, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Gao Shengqiang, Executive Vice Mayor of Pibei City, Zhang Yilei, Director of the Municipal Party Committee Office, and others. Gao Shengqiang is an old subordinate who Zhao Changfeng picked up, and the significance of Liu Chi bringing Gao Shengqiang over this time is self-evident.
Liu Chi came to the south this time mainly to go to Hong Kong to participate in the bankruptcy liquidation of the Riyadh Group on behalf of Beibei City, and they had already come here three days ago. Liu Chi originally planned to visit Zhao Changfeng in Yuehai County on the same day, but due to the complexity of things in Hong Kong, it has been delayed until today.
As soon as Liu Chi got out of the car, he saw Zhao Changfeng greet him with a smile: "Old squad leader, I can look forward to you." β
Liu Chi immediately stretched out his hands and took a step forward, and shouted affectionately: "Brother Changfeng, you want to kill me." His hands tightly held Zhao Changfeng's big hand and shook it constantly, and he complained repeatedly: "Brother Changfeng, you are not interesting enough!" It's a blessing to run to such a nice place alone. I didn't think of helping me to carry out activities, so that I could also go to the coastal areas to experience the life in the developed areas! β
Zhao Changfeng said with a smile: "Old squad leader, look at what you said? You are the helmsman of Bibei City, if I pull you over, the cadres and masses of Bibei City will have to break my backbone? β
Dong Jinkun and Mo Yuegen stood behind and looked at this scene and couldn't help but praise in their mouths: Look! And voila! Look at the relationship between this old partner? No wonder County Magistrate Xiao Zhao can get along so well with the secretary of the founding of the country, it turns out that there is a consistent tradition!
Liu Chi was originally worried that Zhao Changfeng had a grudge against him, so he specially brought Zhao Changfeng's sworn friend Gao Shengqiang over. Now that I see Zhao Changfeng's attitude, a heart is finally in my stomach. With a good start, the rest is much easier.
Zhao Changfeng explained again: "Old squad leader, our Secretary Wei was going to come over to greet you in person, but there was something at hand that I couldn't leave. He said he would come back in the evening and have a drink with you. β
"Oh, your Secretary Wei is too polite! I just came to catch up with Brother Changfeng this time, and I didn't expect to cause trouble to your Secretary Wei! Liu Chi didn't expect that the secretary of the county party committee of Yuehai County would come to receive him in person, it seems that Zhao Changfeng is also going to be windy and rainy in Yuehai County, otherwise how could a county party secretary take the initiative to entertain the county magistrate's personal guests?
Gao Shengqiang has been standing behind Liu Chi, looking at Zhao Changfeng respectfully, seeing that Zhao Changfeng let go of Liu Chi's hand, he couldn't wait to step forward and hold Zhao Changfeng's hand, and said excitedly: "Boss, the family misses you very much, and they asked me to say hello to you." β
"Old senior, I miss you too." Zhao Changfeng held Gao Shengqiang's hand with one hand, patted it with the other hand, and said kindly: "Are you okay?" β
"It's all good, I just miss you." Gao Shengqiang replied respectfully.
"Okay, okay." Zhao Changfeng nodded and said, "After you go back, you will also greet them for me, let them work with peace of mind, and I will go back to see them when I have the opportunity." β
Liu Chi watched this scene from the sidelines, and his heart was jealous and envious, when would he be able to enjoy such treatment in front of his old subordinates!
Zhao Changfeng shook Gao Shengqiang's hand twice more vigorously before letting go. Gao Shengqiang stepped aside, but his eyes were still looking at Zhao Changfeng respectfully.
"Secretary Zhao, hello." Zhang Yilei, director of the Municipal Party Committee Office, lowered his waist and stretched out his hands. Although Zhao Changfeng is no longer the deputy secretary of Bibei City, Yu Wei is still there, which makes Zhang Yilei involuntarily lower his figure.
"Hello Director Yilei." Zhao Changfeng gently shook Zhang Yilei's hand. Then he turned around and introduced Dong Jinkun, Mo Yuegen and others to Liu Chi and Gao Shengqiang. There was another round of politeness on both sides.
After entering the VIP hall and taking a seat, Zhao Changfeng smiled and said to Liu Chi: "Old squad leader, come according to our rules at noon today, right?" β
At the wine table, there are different wine cultures prevailing in the north and south regions, which can be described as distinct. The Central Plains region belongs to the north, and the emphasis is on no wine and no banquet, only when the guests are drunk can the host's enthusiasm for the guests appear, especially in the north of the city, the so-called let the guests drink well, is to drink the guests down. But the south is different, generally speaking, there is no distinction between the host and the guest, and if you can drink, you can drink, and if you can't drink, you are not reluctant. The host does not persuade the guests to drink, and the guests do not persuade the host's wine, everyone is free to do so, so that the host and guest respect each other as guests and respect each other.
But today Zhao Changfeng proposed to come according to the rules of the north, of course Liu Chi was a little worried, with Zhao Changfeng's terrifying amount of alcohol, if he came according to the rules of the north, several people from Beibei City would not be Zhao Changfeng's opponent together, right?
Liu Chi waved his hand again and again and said, "Brother Changfeng, follow the customs." When we arrived in eastern Guangdong, of course we had to follow the rules of eastern Guangdong. β
Seeing that Zhao Changfeng disagreed, Liu Chi said again: "Brother Changfeng, I still have to discuss something with you in the afternoon, how can I discuss it when I am drunk?" In the evening, whether it is the rules of the south or the rules of the north, I will accompany you to have a good drink! β
