Xia Xiang didn't feel alienated, but felt that everyone seemed to be deliberately avoiding something.

In fact, he doesn't think that the relationship between them will be estranged after a distance, and when the relationship reaches a certain level, it will not be easily estranged.

Of course, Song Chaodu's question must have been alluded to, he didn't ask more, but simply said "um".

"In fact, it's not that I don't care about your growth, but I hope that you can take the first step on your own, so that people can see that you are a material that can be made.

Alright, that's all I have to say. ”

Song Chaodu just nodded a little and hung up the phone.

Xia Xiang still heard a lot of content, whether he can open up the situation in Lang City with his own ability means that whether he can establish a useful impression in the minds of the people behind the scenes is very crucial.

Therefore, the leaders of the provincial party committee who learned the news from various channels ignored him and did not care about him, but out of sincere love for him.

In any case, Lu Xiang's matter was successfully resolved, and Xia Xiang and Lu Yike took a gratifying first step.

Although Lu Yike has heard of Xia Xiang's origins, he knows that he has a certain network in the provincial party committee.

In fact, his original intention was to let his son go to the provincial party committee, after all, the provincial party committee was okay to take care of it, and he didn't want to go to the National Development and Reform Commission.

But the provincial party committee is not easy to enter, and his relationship is not so hard.

The reason why the NDRC was mentioned was the idea of retreating, because Chen Feng was in the NDRC.

And Chen Feng is said to be Xia Xiang's closest backstage, and Lu Yike does not think that Xia Xiang has the ability to open the door of the provincial party committee.

The provincial party committee said that it was easy to enter, and maybe it would be possible to enter with a word.

It's hard to say that you can't get in, and you can't get in if you break your head.

Therefore, he first mentioned the National Development and Reform Commission, thinking that Xia Xiang may not necessarily have a deep relationship with the provincial party committee.

I didn't want to wait for Xia Xiang to take the initiative to call the provincial party committee, and the governor of the provincial party committee Song took the initiative to call Xia Xiang, and it was not a business trip, it was a private matter.

The personal relationship with the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and the executive vice governor reached such a level, which made Lu Yike not only secretly surprised, but also extremely envious, only to know that he still underestimated Xia Xiang.

When he heard that Governor Song asked his son to contact Governor Song's secretary directly, he knew that the matter was done, and the secretary of the executive vice governor personally came forward to arrange for a person to enter the provincial party committee, which was definitely a breeze, because the secretary came forward, and the representative was Governor Song's attitude.

Now that the son is older, his son can not only enter the provincial party committee, arrange a good department, but also be taken care of in all aspects, and anyone will give Governor Song some face, who doesn't know that Song Chaodu is the candidate for the next governor.

Lu Yike held Xia Xiang's hand tightly and said with infinite emotion: "Mayor Xia, it's my honor to be able to make you a friend.

To tell you the truth, I've been in officialdom for most of my life, I've seen a lot of all kinds of people, and you're the first young man to make me feel ashamed. ”

Xia Xiang actually understood Lu Yike's temptation a long time ago, he admitted that he was ashamed, obviously a straightforward response to him, so he waved his hand and said: "Secretary Lu is polite, you are very similar to my mentor, I have a cordial feeling when I see you, and I am also a graduate graduate, and I am also a talent, and I entered the provincial party committee to recruit talents for the country." ”

Lu Yike knew that Xia wanted to give him face, shook his head and smiled: "I owe you a favor, Mayor Xia, I invite you to dinner tonight, you must go, if you don't go, you won't give me face." ”

Xia wanted to see that Lu Yike insisted, so he had to agree.

Lu Yike stood up, wanted to leave, hesitated again, and then said: "I came to the office to look for you earlier today, and I happened to accidentally find something, maybe I was dazzled and misunderstood, Yang Bin took advantage of people's inattention to enter Mayor Tu's office, and he didn't come out for a long time......" After Lu Yike finished speaking, he patted his forehead again: "I can't remember clearly, maybe I misheard it, don't say it, think about it when we eat together in the evening." ”

Sending Lu Yike away, Xia Xiang smiled knowingly, what a Lu Yike, he is really scheming, I am afraid that he will not go to the banquet, and he will leave a back hand, in the end, it is the old Commission for Discipline Inspection, and he also has a cunning side.

A driver slipped away from the office of the deputy mayor of the Standing Committee when no one was there at noon, and there was a lot of articles inside.

Xia Xiang glanced at Li Caiyuan quietly, because Li Caiyuan also heard Lu Yike's words clearly just now.

Li Caiyuan's spirit has been much better recently, sweeping away the previous malaise, as soon as he is in spirit, his temperament will be revealed, and he is like two people before, not only the whole person seems refreshed, but also has a sense of spirit.

Xia Xiang came over with a look, Li Caiyuan immediately understood something, nodded and said: "Yang Bin's every move in the future, Secretary General Tang and I will pay more attention." ”

It's good to understand, Xia Xiang didn't speak, and nodded slightly to show acquiescence.

Li Caiyuan still has a good eye, understands what he thinks, and can be cultivated.

Early the next morning, as soon as I went to work, I received a notice to hold a secretary's office meeting.

As soon as Xia Xiang walked into the secretary's office, he saw that the few people present were Mayor Gu Xiangguo, Deputy Secretary Zhang Yingji and Deputy Mayor Tu Yun, he understood something, he thought that it would come so quickly, he thought that there would be a motion in two days, but he didn't expect that it would be submitted to the secretary's office meeting only one day later.

The other party really can't wait.

Fortunately, last night, Xia Xiang studied the information on genetically modified materials overnight, and at the same time, he had a phone call with Lian Ruohan and had an in-depth exchange on the current situation of genetically modified organisms in the United States.

Xia Xiang later called Wei Xin and asked Wei Xin to compile a detailed information about the advantages and disadvantages of GM technology and the possible long-term effects for him.

Before Wei Xin's information arrived, the meeting was held first, and Xia Xiang knew that the forces behind him had stepped up the layout, and it was possible that they wanted to take advantage of the fact that he did not gain a firm foothold.

Xia Xiang was supposed to sit on the top of Tu Yun, but Tu Yun took a step forward and sat in his place, after he came in, she just raised her eyelids, obviously she didn't mean to give up her seat, Xia Xiang sat at the bottom.

Tu Yun wore light makeup today, although it was light, but for Xia Xiang, who smelled the fragrance and knew women, it could be seen at a glance that her eyeshadow had been carefully retouched, as well as slightly coated lipstick, and her face was also lightly greased with powder.

I have to admit that Tu Yun, who has a lighter complexion, does have a charming demeanor, and from where he sits, her plump figure is wrapped in clothes, although the clothes are relatively wide, they can still give people infinite reverie.

A woman's good figure can't hide it, and she will exude an amazing aura for a man with a keen sense of smell to discover.

Looking at Tu Yun's beautiful face again, tight and smooth, without a trace of wrinkles, Xia thought about it, Yan Xiao saw Tu Yun, and he must have been surprised how she could maintain it so well.

However, the brilliance of some women's appearances can't hide what they do secretly, and Xia Xiang is not moved by Tu Yun's seductive side at all, especially after he hears some rumors about Tu Yun.

Last night's dinner with Lu Yike, both enjoyed and drunk, let Xia Xiang further understand Lu Yike's personality, there is a calculating side, and there is also a time when his temperament is revealed, and don't look at people who are almost 50, there is also an old naughty side.

The biggest gain is not only that Xia Xiang is sure that he can become an ally with Lu Yike, but also a lot of statements about the relationship between Yang Bin and Tu Yun, Lu Yike didn't say it deeply, but just said it as a joke through wine, anyway, it's a wine talk, let me say it, just listen to it.

Xia Xiang knew that the speaker was not unintentional, but intentional.

And he, as a listener, is not only intentional, but also extraordinarily intentional.

It's not that he likes to probe other people's **, but as a breakthrough point in things, sometimes he has to seize any opportunity.

Ai Chengwen saw that the people had arrived, so he coughed: "Today, the comrades were convened for a meeting, and experts from the Ministry of Agriculture came to Lang City to investigate, and after the inspection, it was concluded that Lang City is very suitable for the promotion of emerging crops, and is ready to invest 30 million yuan to build a new agricultural park of 10,000 mu in Lang City. ”

He paused slightly, his eyes fell on Xia Xiang, and said, "I have a relevant document in my hand, comrades take a look at it first, and after reading it, we will continue to discuss." ”

Xia Xiang took over the information, the number of pages is not much, a total of more than a dozen pages, he did not read carefully, because a simple flip, it is full of some official articles, all of which are propaganda about how good emerging technologies are, can reduce insect pests, can increase yields, can resist drought, etc., basically all the shortcomings of existing crops are gone, and there are all advantages, which can be described in one word: perfect.

It does not specify why the harm of genetically modified technology will have an adverse effect on the human body, nor does it indicate the source of the technology, only vaguely stating that it is the latest invention of experts from the Ministry of Agriculture.

is simply a fool's thing, of course, Xia thinks clearly that the investment part of 30 million yuan in bold at the end is the key.

What are the advantages of the previous technology, how many of you here have really put in the effort to study it? Besides, even if they do research, even if they know what the truth is, how many people can say no to GMOs under the pressure of investment and superior leadership? Xia Xiang was helpless, his eyes swept away, and he glanced at Zhang Yingji.

Zhang Yingji's gaze also happened to be cast at him, and as soon as the two met their eyes, they both nodded imperceptibly.

A few minutes later, Gu Xiangguo was the first to speak: "This is a rare good thing, it is rare that experts from the Ministry of Agriculture have taken a fancy to Lang City, and the municipal party committee and government should vigorously welcome it and open the door to convenience." ”

Tu Yun also immediately echoed: "Agricultural and livestock products and processing is also one of the pillar industries of Lang City, if Lang City has built a pilot base of the Ministry of Agriculture, it will have a huge role in promoting the promotion of Lang City's agricultural industry, 30 million investment fell from the sky, Mayor Xia, good luck is coming, and it can't be stopped." ”

Xia Xiang only smiled at Tu Yun, but looked at Zhang Yingji: "I want to hear Secretary Zhang's opinion." ”

Zhang Yingji gently put aside the information in her hand, with a serious face: "Emerging agriculture? It's a nice thing to say, but in fact, everyone knows in their hearts, that is, genetically modified technology.

When I was in school, I was exposed to genetically modified organisms, and at that time, American scientists came to give speeches, bragging about the benefits of genetically modified organisms, high quality, high yield, less insect pests, etc., and I asked him a sentence at that time, and he didn't answer for a long time...... "He sold a pass, glanced at a few people, and took in everyone's expressions, and then said: "I asked the American professor, since the genetically modified technology is so good, why not vigorously promote it in the United States, and have to come to China on the other side of the world, Could it be that Americans are also living Lei Feng? Since it is a living Lei Feng, why not transfer the most cutting-edge missile technology to China? Ai Chengwen had an interested expression, Gu Xiangguo was expressionless, but Tu Yun was unhappy, and interjected: "At this time and that time, a large number of genetically modified crops are now planted in the United States. ”

Zhang Yingji nodded and continued: "Yes, the United States does grow genetically modified crops in large quantities now, soybeans, corn and rice, but does Mayor Tu know that they never eat their own genetically modified food? Tu Yun was very dissatisfied with Zhang Yingji's unhurried tone, and asked impatiently: "They don't eat it themselves, and they still grow so much, is there something wrong with their brains?" "It's really a childish question, Zhang Yingji laughed hehehe, Xia Xiang couldn't help laughing, even Ai Chengwen couldn't hold back his smile, with a smile in the corner of his eyes.

"Almost all of the soybeans and rice are exported to China, most of the corn is used to make fuel alcohol, and the unused part is used as feed and exports, and most of them are also exported to China."

Zhang Yingji patiently explained.

As soon as he said a few words, Xia Xiang was impressed by Zhang Yingji, and Zhang Yingji's deep understanding of genetically modified technology was beyond his surprise.

"Basically, the group that imports the most genetically modified grain from the United States is COFCO, which just imported 60,000 tons of corn some time ago, but the test failed and it was returned."

Xia Xiang followed Zhang Ying's words and said, "At the same time, a freighter from the United States was also loaded with corn, which was destined for Japan, and the corn on it was all non-GMO.

Can it be said that in the eyes of Americans, the Chinese are inferior to the Japanese? "The dual standards have always been a common strategy of the United States, but it is a pity that many Chinese people have turned a blind eye.

"The topic is far away, we are talking about the investment of the Ministry of Agriculture, not the issue of genetically modified technology, let alone COFCO, which imports genetically modified crops!" Gu Xiangguo waved his hand impatiently, "Go back to the topic, don't go off-topic." ”

Xia Xiang snorted coldly in his heart, deliberately changed his concept, turned a blind eye to the harm, and said that he was dignified, and Gu Xiangguo's bureaucratic methods were really perfect! Xia Xiang said unceremoniously: "Importing genetically modified food harms one generation, and planting genetically modified crops harms future generations!" Mayor Gu, the so-called emerging agriculture of the Ministry of Agriculture, with your wisdom, will not fail to see that it is the promotion of genetically modified organisms? "What about GMOs? Don't just hear that GMOs are flood beasts! Whether genetically modified is harmful or not, scientists have not yet concluded, and the state has not explicitly banned it, what do you know? Tu Yun retorted to Xia very unceremoniously, the fierceness of his tone and tough attitude not only surprised Zhang Yingzhi, but also made Ai Chengwen stunned on the spot.

Even Gu Xiangguo couldn't reprimand Xia Xiang in a reprimanding tone, let alone Tu Yun, who was not as good as Xia Xiang's ranking! Either Tu Yun was dizzy, or she was impulsive and lost her temper.

But as a deputy department-level cadre who has been in the officialdom for many years, how could he make such a low-level mistake? Obviously, Tu Yun just wanted to hit Xia Xiang's prestige in public.

Even Gu Xiangguo was stunned and glared at Tu Yun dissatisfied.

Xia Xiang was neither surprised nor angry, but threw the material with a "snap": "Mayor Tu, if your family eats genetically modified food, I will support the Ministry of Agriculture to promote genetically modified crops in Lang City." ”

Tu Yun was furious: "Why do we let our whole family eat genetically modified? Is there something wrong with you? Xia Xiang confronted: "Why do Americans have to come to China to plant genetically modified crops that Americans don't eat?" For the sake of a little profit, he will bring disaster to the country and the people, and he will help the abuse, and promote genetically modified crops that even he dare not eat in Lang City. Xia Xiang scolded in public for the first time, but he didn't regret it at all, but felt very relieved.

Tu Yun was choked by Xia Xiang for a while, his face was flushed, his mouth was open for a long time, he couldn't say a word, and finally stood up: "Xia Xiang, I'm not done with you!" "Xia wants to experience countless opponents, how can he be afraid of Tu Yun? Hehe smiled: "There are many people who don't finish with me, and now I'm fine."

Mayor Tu, before making a decision, even if you don't really think about the people, you have to put yourself in your shoes.

When one day you suddenly find that your table is full of genetically modified foods that are harmful to your life, if you don't eat it, you will starve to death, and if you eat it, you will be poisoned, and it will be too late for you to regret today's decision. ”

Gu Xiangguo knew that Tu Yun couldn't talk about Xia Xiang, so he said to Tu Yun: "Comrade Tu Yun, sit down and talk."

It's normal to have arguments, and you can't get angry. ”

Chong Xia Xiang said dissatisfiedly, "Comrade Xia Xiang, don't be alarmist, listening to the wind is rain, genetically modified technology is good and bad, and it can't be killed with a stick."

Also, when discussing issues, it's best not to swear. ”

Xia Xiang's swear words just now deliberately emphasized the tone, just to suppress Tu Yun's head, Gu Xiangguo's practice of playing fifty boards each, and it was still fair on the surface, so he apologized for the swear words just now, and then said: "I am not against genetically modified technology, but against genetically modified staple food!" As soon as these words came out, they were shocked! thought that Xia Xiang was completely denying the genetically modified technology, but unexpectedly threw out a genetically modified staple food theory, not only Ai Chengwen looked puzzled, but even Zhang Yingji was at a loss, obviously, he also heard of it for the first time.

"There is a good side to GM technology, for example, GM corn can greatly increase yields and reduce insect pests, provided that the corn grown is used to make alcohol fuel and is not consumed.

There is also genetically modified cotton is also a beneficial improvement, in the most rampant period of cotton bollworm, the insect will not be poisoned by the pesticide, and in the end can only be drowned by the pesticide.

However, after the genetically modified organisms, the pest pests have been greatly reduced, and the cotton yield has also increased a lot, which still brings a lot of benefits to farmers.

Cotton is not edible, and now it is no longer eaten cottonseed oil, in general, the application of genetically modified technology to cotton, is more beneficial than disadvantageous. ”

Subsequently, Xia Xiang changed the topic and threw out a very grim fact......
