Chapter Ninety-Six: Lockout
Chapter 96 of the official road of rebirth
At the beginning of September 2002, the Yellow Sea World Expo officially kicked off, the World Expo lasted for three months, the theme was "Ecology and Environment", more than 100 countries and regions and more than a dozen international organizations participated in the event.
Chief No. 1 attended the opening ceremony and announced the opening of the Yellow Sea Expo.
Subsequently, music and dance performances with the theme of "Man and Nature" were held, as well as sound and light fireworks performances, and a large-scale symphony expounded the theme of this World Expo, love the earth, love the homeland, and the source of human life comes from nature and returns to nature.
More than 5,000 guests attended the opening ceremony, including envoys from various countries in China, some national dignitaries and business people.
The beautiful and stunning Xue Ni's song "Heavenly Sound" fused with Chinese classical music was mesmerizing, like a crisp jade bead around the beam, and after the music was finished, the venue was silent for half a minute before thunderous applause broke out.
The opening ceremony was undoubtedly a great success, and over the next three months, each country will not only hold its own pavilion day, but also showcase its country through a variety of parade performances.
In order to ensure the safety of the World Expo, during the entire exhibition period, after the special police detachment of sister cities is mobilized to support, more than 3,000 police officers will be on duty and patrol in the Yellow Sea every day, and the Ludong Armed Police Corps will be on standby at any time, and its police force will also be the largest in the Yellow Sea.
While receiving guests from all sides, Tang Yi also met Xueni, who was as affectionate as usual, chatting with Tang Yi in broken Chinese for more than half an hour, seeing Xueni naturally, Tang Yi was at ease. Although Tang Yi is a little sluggish in terms of feelings, she is not an emotional idiot, Xue Ni has not had a scandal over the years, and she has a soft spot for China, and she never refuses the invitation of her city, but Tang Yi is really worried that she will have a faint affection for herself, and now Tang Yi really doesn't want to provoke any more women.
Seeing that Xue Ni was naturally kind in front of him, as if he had met the "magician" for the first time, Tang Yi was relieved, and then he was a little funny, and he also thought of himself a little higher, what kind of outstanding man has Xue Ni not seen over the years? Having a soft spot for herself is just this girl's righteousness and gratitude, and as for not having a boyfriend, it's even less her business, that's Xue Ni wants to concentrate on developing in her acting career, God knows if the news that this pure diva, the dream lover of millions of men and even women has a boyfriend will cause a fan riot?
It was Tang Yi who was also relieved, when Xue Ni left the Yellow Sea, Tang Yi personally went to see off the plane as a friend, looking at a white veil, pure as an angel Xue Ni gradually disappeared into the VIP passage, Tang Yi was inexplicably a little depressed, stood for a while, and then slowly turned around and walked to the hall.
On the highway back to the Yellow Sea, Audi was galloping, Huang Lin sat next to Tang Yi, she came to send Xue Ni on behalf of the Municipal Party Committee, but she took Tang Yi's car, Huang Lin looked at Hu Xiaoqiu on the co-pilot, thought about it, and handed the beautifully packaged gift box next to Tang Yi, and smiled: "Secretary, it was Xue Ni who gave it to you." ”
Tang Yi was slightly stunned, when he came to the airport, he saw Huang Lin with a gift box, and originally thought it was a gift she wanted to give to Xue Ni.
Huang Lin smiled again: "What she gave me yesterday, I haven't opened it and read it." ”
Tang Yi saw the banter in Huang Lin's smile, but he didn't care much. After all, Xue Ni is an American diva, no matter from which point of view, it is impossible to have anything to do with the high-ranking officials of the Republic who have high hopes, because Xue Ni may favor Tang Secretary Huang Lin just because she thinks it is funny, which does not match the domestic style problem, Huang Lin feels quite romantic, so she dares to joke with Tang Yi.
Tang Yi thought about it, and opened the beautifully packaged gift box, inside is a beautiful large cardboard box, open the carton lid, Tang Yi is stunned, the carton is a snow-white sweater, there is a card on it, crooked Chinese, "I knit it myself, the sleeve crochet is ugly, how to learn it can't be learned." ”
Tang Yi put down the card, silently touched the thick sweater, and was silent for a long time.
Huang Lin secretly glanced at the words on the card, and snickered, the American diva knits sweaters for people? Do you know words like "crochet"? Then he looked at the thick sweater in the carton, and the playful smile gradually put away, this stitch and thread of affection is really heavy.
……
After sending off the guests from all parties, Tang Yi wanted to call Xue Ni, but after thinking about it, forget it, what can he say on the phone?
Today, the Yellow Sea, whether it is the streets or TV magazines, is full of information about the World Expo, and the daily newspaper is also a full-page World Expo.
Tang Yi flipped through the daily newspaper, and the red lanterns were hung high on the page, full of festive atmosphere.
There was a knock on the door of the "Da Da" office, and then it was gently pushed open, and Zhou Feng, deputy director of the Municipal People's Congress and chairman of the Federation of Trade Unions, walked in.
After Duan Hejun was transferred to the post of deputy mayor, Zhou Feng took over as chairman of the Federation of Trade Unions, and this year's term of office, the Huanghai People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference retired a group of old comrades, and Zhou Feng took this opportunity to carry out activities and was elected vice chairman of the Standing Committee of the new People's Congress at the National People's Congress.
The relationship between Zhou Feng and Zhou Wenkai is not good, but they have the same smell as Wang Lizhen, Wang Lizhen once used some things he shook out to threaten Zhou Wenkai, and whether Zhou Feng takes over as chairman of the trade union or is elected deputy director of the National People's Congress, there is Wang Lizhen's shadow among them.
In the current situation, Zhou Feng is naturally actively moving closer to Tang Yi, and he is also very dedicated to the work assigned by Tang Yi, the new regulations just promulgated by the National People's Congress, the status of the trade union is invisibly important, Zhou Feng understands the spirit of Tang Yi's speech every day, pondering Tang Yi's likes and dislikes to explain the following work.
Through the study of the content of Tang Yi's speeches on the trade union several times, Zhou Feng felt that Tang Yi really wanted to make the trade union the backbone of the city's workers and seek welfare for the employees. Zhou Feng understands this better than anyone else, in the past, he followed Wang Lizhen closely, and did not let go of the financial power of the trade union and fought with Duan He Jun for the sake of his career, but now he goes deep into the grassroots every day and cares about the construction of the grassroots trade union is also for the sake of his career.
Yesterday, the Municipal Federation of Trade Unions received the first "application for suspension of work", if Zhou Feng had already approved the "disagree" to criticize the chairman of the trade union, but Secretary Tang proposed that this "right to stop work" is not a decoration, and the first "work stoppage" incident may have to be hyped up, but now during the World Expo, stability is overwhelming, and it is not easy to say what Secretary Tang will do. After going deep into the company that night to understand the situation, Zhou Feng rushed to Tang Yihui
report, explore Secretary Tang's style.
When Tang Yi heard that a private enterprise trade union had applied for a "work stoppage", he immediately paid attention, "What is the company, and what are the details?" ”
Zhou Feng knew that his homework was not done in vain, and he hurriedly said: "It's Huatian Hotel, I went to understand the situation yesterday, the hotel staff asked for a salary increase, but the management refused, and the Huatian Hotel Labor Union did not get a satisfactory answer after coordinating with the hotel management, so it put forward an 'application for suspension of work',......" briefly said that he went to Huatian Hotel yesterday.
Tang Yi frowned, "Huatian Hotel? There are a lot of foreign tourists, right? ”
Zhou Feng said: "Well, the 'Global Environment Watch' also lives in the hotel, and now the work is suspended, it seems that it is not very appropriate......" He was really a little worried that Secretary Tang agreed to the staff of Huatian Hotel to stop work at this time in order to show off.
Tang Yi leaned back on the chair, picked up the teacup, put it down again, and said, "Huatian's employee treatment is much higher than the city's average standard, right?" Our laws and regulations are to protect the interests of employees, not to embarrass enterprises, let alone become a weapon of commercial competition. ”
Zhou Feng was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Yes, I'm also strange, it stands to reason that even if the waiter hired by Huatian Hotel temporarily, the salary is more than 1,000 yuan, and the welfare treatment is also very good in the big hotel, why did it suddenly stop working?" ”
Then he said: "Secretary Tang, I will talk to the chairman of the Huatian trade union again, try to persuade them, and wait for the World Expo to come later." ”
Tang Yi nodded slightly, and after Zhou Feng went out, Tang Yi sighed softly, with the introduction of new regulations, there will always be some new problems, which can only be solved through practice.
Tang Yi then picked up a document, is to participate in the Pan-Yellow Sea Economic Circle mayors' meeting of the invitation letter, on the basis of the linkage of the three cities of Tang Yi, China, Japan and South Korea around the Yellow Sea city contact is increasing, the mayor's meeting is Tang Yi in the mayor's office, by the Yellow Sea, Lucheng, Nanwei, Ningtai in Ludong; Busan, Daejeon, Jeonju in South Korea; The mayors of ten cities in Japan, including Incheon, Kitakyushu and Fukuoka, participated in the event, and the host was in Busan, South Korea, but I don't know whether it was the negligence of the organizers or deliberate, and sent an invitation letter to the mayor of Huanghai to Tang Yi.
Tang Yi thought about the invitation for a while, and then called Liu Bing to come in according to the outside line, this mayor's forum, naturally it is good for Huang Xiangdong to go, and the prefix of the invitation letter is "Mayor Tang Yi", it is still wrong, if it is written by Secretary Tang Yi, then I really don't know what Huang Xiangdong will think.
Strong secretary, this job is not easy to do! Tang Yi shook his head and sighed.
……
Sitting on the Audi back to the Standing Committee, Tang Yi is still thinking about how to balance the increasingly unbalanced relationship between the party committee and the government, Huang Xiangdong is still relatively stable in doing things, can listen to his voice, can correct some of his more radical practices, no one is omnipotent, without affecting his own governing policy, it is also necessary to hear some different voices.
Audi drove into Xiaowangzhuang, and the speed slowed down, and then Tang Yi saw a sparse circle of people outside the roadside commissary, and someone was arguing loudly.
The co-pilot, Hu Xiaoqiu, pressed the window and said, "It's Xi'er!" ”
Tang Yi had already seen it, Xi'er was wearing a snow-white knitted skirt and delicate blue jeans, exuding a seductive charm. She was arguing loudly with the grocery store proprietor, and the silly girl was timidly hiding behind her, looking at the situation to "stand out" for the silly aunt.
Tang Yi scratched his head for a while, how could he really become friends with a stupid girl?
Without waiting for Tang Yi's instructions, Xiao Wu had slowly stopped the car, and then saw that the proprietress seemed to be annoyed and angry, and grabbed Xi'er's hair, Xi'er screamed in pain and struggled, but where was the village woman's strength? Pressed to the ground by the hair, the crowd burst into laughter.
Tang Yi also smiled, Hu Xiaoqiu had already hurriedly got out of the car and ran out, shouting loudly, soon the crowd dispersed, Xi'er limped over, pulled the car door and got into the car, looking at her embarrassed appearance, Tang Yi held back a smile and frowned: "Covered in soil, what's the matter?" ”
Xi'er said hatefully: "A group of snobs, I invited Xiaohong to eat ice cream, and the proprietress wronged her, saying that she stole it, and beat her!" ”
Tang Yi smiled: "It turns out that your friend's name is Xiaohong." ”
Xi'er was embarrassed, but at this time, the silly aunt also ran over and slapped the car window hard, Tang Yi reached out and pressed it, and the silly aunt put a small white flower in Xi'er's sideburns, and smirked: "Sister, sister, next time I will invite you to eat ice cream." ”
Xi'er turned her face and ignored her.
Audi started slowly, and Hu Xiaoqiu, who understood the whole story, turned around and asked: "Secretary, do you want to detain that fourth sister-in-law for a few days, this mother-in-law has a really stinky mouth." ”
Xi'er's eyes lit up, and she wanted to speak, but then she remembered her situation and hurriedly held back, lest Tang Yi give herself another hardship.
Tang Yi smiled, "Forget it, if you detain her, Xiaohong won't be able to stay in the village." ”
Hu Xiaoqiu nodded, turned back, and put on headphones to listen to music again.
Xi'er was a little indignant, but she had to admit that Tang Yi had an accurate eye for the problem, she didn't expect this just now, but this one killed a thousand knives? Do you really want to punish that village woman? Is it for the sake of a silly girl?
Xi'er immediately saw mud spots on the cuffs of her jeans, and hurriedly bent down to rub them, Tang Yi couldn't help but look down, but saw Xi'er wearing a pair of fashionable and sexy T-shaped crystal high-heeled sandals, and on her delicate snow ankles, a bright red rose tattoo loomed, full of provocative meaning.
Tang Yi frowned, he heard Sister Lan's report, Xi'er begged Sister Lan to take her to get a tattoo, and tattooed her ankles, buttocks and lower abdomen, according to Sister Lan, it was extremely bewitching, Tang Yi knew that she was deliberately saying goodbye to the image of the past, but what kind of system did she have in and out of the Standing Committee with such a demonic face? Otherwise, give her to Sister Lan for the time being?
Immediately Tang Yi was stunned, perhaps, this is Xi'er's true intention? She naturally thought that it would be much easier to escape from Sister Lan's hands.
Tang Yi said in a deep voice: "Put on socks in the future!" Send you to the police station again in such a stream! ”
Xi'er naturally knew what Tang Yi meant by "sending to the police station", but when she heard Tang Yi say that she was "flowing in the flow", she was blocked for a while, and she didn't squeak.
"Did you hear that?" Tang Yi's voice became stern.
Xi'er nodded bitterly and turned her head to look out the window.
……
What Tang Yi didn't expect was that under Zhou Feng's meticulous and in-depth investigation, it was found that Chen Mei, the chairman of the Huatian trade union who instigated the strike of Huatian Hotel employees, had a problem, and asked the procuratorate to intervene in accordance with the law
Manager Li of the marketing department brought it in, and it was also Manager Li's intention to encourage Huatian employees to strike.
Who is Manager Li? He is the youngest son of Li Dong of the Minghu Hotel, and Huatian and Minghu have been fighting openly and secretly over the years, although with the settlement of the New York Hotel in the Yellow Sea, the dispute over the first hotel in the Yellow Sea has become yesterday's yellow flower, but the grievances accumulated over the years are not so easy to resolve.
Zhou Feng couldn't help but admire Secretary Tang, just like that, he had already guessed that there was something else, and when Secretary Tang said "the weapon of commercial competition", he obviously had foresight.
And Zhou Feng asked the procuratorate to intervene but was a little annoyed, that Chen Mei, oil and salt don't enter, how to talk to her, the attitude has not softened, Zhou Feng wants to treat her, I don't believe that she has not had any problems over the years, and under this investigation, the problem was really found.
When Tang Yi revealed that he wanted to "severely punish" the Minghu Hotel, there was an endless stream of intercessors, including many important cadres of the Tang faction, such as Deputy Mayor Jia Yuejun and others.
The intercessors are all in the same tone, the contribution made by Minghu Hotel to the Yellow Sea over the years, how willing and charitable Li Dong is, although it is inappropriate for Minghu Hotel to use local regulations to conduct unfair commercial competition, but after all, it belongs to the category of commercial competition, and it is still a civil act.
Wang Lu went to the Standing Committee in person, recently she was in the Huatian Hotel to get windy, to rain and rain, but also to take advantage of the World Expo to launch a big plan, who knows that the employees will be connected to stop work, but the new bill is very supportive of Secretary Tang, Wang Lu is not good to call Tang Yi, but he is worried about tea and dinner, to say that the salary increase for employees, it is absolutely impossible, first, the board of directors will not pass, second, so make such a fuss about the salary increase, then when is the end?
According to rumors, Secretary Tang was "furious" and criticized the Minghu Hotel in private conversations, which is not only unfair commercial competition, but is destroying the World Expo and destroying the situation of stability and unity, especially this kind of use of laws and regulations to protect the rights and interests of employees to attack opponents, and regard national laws as child's play, which has a very bad impact.
This tone must be that the people on the side of Minghu are naturally panicked, as if a catastrophe is coming, but Wang Lu is ecstatic, naturally thinking that Tang Yi is killing her opponent because of Ye Xiaolu's relationship, and hurriedly ran to the Standing Committee to thank Tang Yi, Tang Yi is naturally not a fake public and private interest, but the new regulations have just been promulgated, and they must be severely punished to prevent similar incidents from happening again. But Wang Lu is very grateful, Tang Yi doesn't say anything, this kind of favor, Tang Yi gradually took it with peace of mind, of course, Tang Yi was also afraid that Wang Lu would be arrogant if he thought he had his own protection, so he also pointed to her in and out of the words, Wang Lu is a smart person, and he can understand it when he thinks about it.
Li Dong, the helmsman of Minghu, is already in his seventies, but he came to Villa No. 5 of the Standing Committee on crutches, accompanied by Vice Chairman Zhu of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference who had just retired.
The two old men are one hundred and fifty or sixty years old, and they have been pleading, and Li Dong is even more tearful, counting the hardships of his business, and saying that everything is done by his junior himself, and he will not pay attention to killing or killing him, and only begging Secretary Tang to open up to Minghu, not to affect Minghu because of the behavior of that loser.
Tang Yi said a few words of comfort, but he didn't say anything to death, and sent away the two old men who were trembling, Tang Yi came back and sat on the sofa, picked up the teacup and took a sip, then shook his head.
"If you want me to say, you can't be soft-hearted." Xi'er's crisp voice sounded behind her.
After a few tosses, Xi'er also learned to say "you", although the words are a little sluggish, and the heart is even more bitter when it comes to this word, but it is finally gradually getting used to it.
"The right to stop work? You can really tinker with it......" Xi'er subconsciously wanted to criticize a few words, then remembered Tang Yi's temper, busily stopped his mouth, and said: "Anyway, the new regulations have just been introduced, and some companies dare to use its loopholes to attack opponents. Competitors all bribe the head of the other party's union, and even if they fail, they can hand over a random person to say that they are his personal behavior, so what deterrent effect does this new law have? What is the practical significance? ”
Tang Yi drank tea and didn't squeak, of course he knew this, now he was thinking about how to punish the Minghu Hotel, which could play a deterrent role, and not make a fuss, after all, Li Dong had a very high reputation in the Yellow Sea business community, and now how many pairs of eyes are staring at him.
Xi'er said again: "This old man is good at a glance, if you are a rat trap and it is not good to punish him heavily, then simply sentence his son, didn't you also say that his son's actions undermine stability and unity, then how to sentence it is not too much, the company issued a document, urging them to reorganize the board of directors, because of the scandal to reorganize the board of directors, other directors are not sure of this opportunity?" Look at that old man, will he still be able to jump in the future? ”
Tang Yi finally turned around and pointed to the bedroom, Xi'er also understood, so he walked in by himself, closed the door, and Shi Shiran sat on the bed, not knowing what he was thinking.
At the end of September, the Municipal Intermediate People's Court began to try Li Yaodong's case, and among the charges prosecuted by the procuratorate were, in addition to commercial bribery, there were also many crimes such as undermining the order of the market economy.
Subsequently, the Huanghai Municipal Procuratorate conducted an investigation into the leading group of the Minghu Board of Directors on the governance of commercial bribery, and at the same time, the General Office of the Municipal Government issued a letter proposing the reorganization of the Minghu Board of Directors to eliminate the public's doubts.
But Tang Yi couldn't have imagined that Li Yaodong probably felt that he had no hope in his life, Li Xun refused to see him, and his two capable brothers were overwhelmed by him, and when he finished eating in prison, where would he have a place to stand in Minghu? It was Li Yaodong who lost control of his emotions in court for a while, and loudly said that the secretary of the municipal party committee and Wang Lu, the executive director and general manager of Huatian Hotel, had a relationship between men and women, and it was Tang Yi and Wang Lu who conspired to frame him.
Although the venue was cleared and not many people were able to come in to hear the trial, Li Yaodong's words still caused an uproar, and the presiding judge, who was experienced, guided Li Yaodong to reluctantly finish the trial, and hurriedly reported to the court's top management, President Ma Qingfu hung up the phone to Tang Yi, and made a self-criticism while reporting the situation.
Tang Yi didn't say anything, and he wouldn't be bored to sue Li Yaodong for slander, but Wang Lu often came to see her, and he helped her a few times, so it turned out that there were rumors among the people. Tang Yi can't help this, outsiders see flowers in the fog, naturally true and false, and the folk love to pass lace, but this is beyond their control.
