Chapter 370: Politics is no trivial matter
Xia Xiang also knew that Cui Xiang had never had a very good impression of him, and with the current addition... Roar to see. A few years later, if Ye Shisheng really wants to retire, Cui Xiang's strongest competitors are precisely Ma Wanzheng and Song Chaodu.
And Ma Wanzheng and Song Chaodu have the best relationship with Xia Xiang.
Although it is said that the world is unpredictable, it is better to take precautions, Xia Xiang is also because he has been busy with the affairs of Anxian County recently, so he wants to wait for a little more leisure, and then sit with Governor Ma. As for Governor Song, it is much simpler, and he can come to his home at any time.
After catching up with Feng Guiguang, Xia Xiang led him upstairs. Not much. Almost all the guests arrived, and everyone began to move freely. Find someone you know well, raise a glass, or chat. The party was quite lively and relatively successful.
At the end of the reception, everyone was basically happy. Fang Ge successfully took the phone of the Blue Socks, and the Blue Socks had to face Sun An with a little loosening of the attitude towards Fang Ge, but fortunately, he also immediately shifted the target and targeted a female classmate of Cao Shuhui. As for Xiao Wu and Feng Meimei's rapid progress, the two not only exchanged phone numbers. I also made an appointment for the next meeting.
Li Hongjiang and Wang Linjie also had a good conversation, and basically everyone had gains. Of course, the greater harvest is Cao Shuhui's Reverie Design Company, since the company opened, Xia Xiang did not specifically mention it to everyone. Today, everyone gathers, many of whom are influential figures in the construction industry in Yan Province. I learned that Cao Shuhui had opened a design company. The first thing is congratulations, and the heart naturally knows it. If there is a design plan in the future, I will definitely give priority to reverie design.
The point is, Cao Shuji's design is indeed outstanding, and many companies are proud to invite her to design. Even if Xia wants not to advertise for her, just by virtue of her fame, it is enough to make a lot of money. However, the design company is also as famous as possible, and Xia wants to advertise for her. It doesn't hurt.
When Yan Xiao was leaving, she told Xia Xiang that she had already figured it out and wanted to do a cosmetics business. But she didn't need his help, she had to make an appearance for others to see. Xia Xiang can only wish her success.
After going to work, Xia Xiang received a call from Elder Gao. Gao Lao's voice was a little helpless: ", friend." I tried my best, don't blame me, don't blame Jin Zhou, he wants to help you, but he is soft-spoken
Gao Jinzhou ran into a wall in front of the director of the Department of Transportation. Also to be expected. The Department of Transportation is a hall, with a high authority, and the general vice governor really can't command. After all, it is the real power department, and it holds the power of the province's transportation funds.
Xia Xiang still expressed his gratitude to Elder Gao.
Putting down the phone, he received a call from Gao Jinzhou personally.
"County Magistrate Xia, my father must have already called you, Director Tong's tone is very tough, and he has no money. Hehe, I, the vice governor, am not in charge of the Department of Transportation, and I have no face, so I will be a pawn when I go out. I believe that I came forward first, and then Governor Song and Governor Ma came forward in turn, and Director Tong had to bow his head no matter how big he sat down
Gao Jinzhou is not simple, he analyzed the situation thoroughly, Xia Xiang's idea was completely seen through by him, "It seems that although he has been in Yan Province for a while, he can be regarded as seeing the situation in Yan Province clearly."
Xia Xiang expressed his gratitude to Gao Jinzhou again.
Gao Jinzhou changed the topic and said with emotion: "Ruohan has been abroad for a long time, and it is time to come back Xiaoxia, if it is convenient for you to persuade her to come back, with her in Yan City, it is good to have a care, isn't it?" ”
Xia Xiang understood what Gao Jinzhou meant, Lian Ruohan was not in Yan City, Gao Chengsong fell again, and the Wu family did not have much interest in Yan Province, so the focus would be shifted to other provinces and cities, so Gao Jinzhou's situation would inevitably be embarrassing.
If the Wu family does not vigorously support him in Beijing, and only rely on him as a vice governor to slowly boil in Yan Province, it remains to be said whether he can become a member of the Standing Committee after three or five years. It is even possible that he has been going around at the vice-provincial level, and when he is about to retire, he will finally be transferred back to the capital and become a deputy minister with real power, or he will be promoted to the ministerial level, but he will be placed in an idle department.
It is the awareness of the current predicament. Gao Jin Zhou reluctantly proposed to Xia Xiang to invite Lian Ruohan to come back, and with Lian Ruohan there, the Wu family remembered that in Yan Province, they still had a vice governor to support. Because Gao Jinzhou is also very aware of Wu Caijiang's temper, doing things is three minutes of heat, remembering that one is one play, and there is no longevity in doing things, Gao Jinzhou even suspected that Wu Caijiang had forgotten him after Gao Chengsong fell and after Lian Ruohan went away.
Xia wanted to hear a deputy governor in an almost pleading tone, hoping that he could invite Lian Ruohan back, but he couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and didn't know how to answer. Silent Pian Xuan, he still said: "Mr. Lian's business in the United States has been getting bigger and bigger recently, and it is a bit difficult to invite her back." And she seems to have some reason. Not very happy to come back
"The province recently had a delegation to the United States, and I happened to be in charge of the expedition. I'll report your name then" Gao Jinzhou is also quite interesting, I don't know if I guessed or heard Lian Ruohan's request for Xia Xiang from Gao Lao's mouth, and by the way, I solved the biggest problem for Xia Xiang.
Xia Xiang has nothing to say.
Solving the biggest problem of going to the United States, the biggest problem Xia Xiang is currently facing is that the funds for road construction have not yet been implemented.
Compared with Xia Xiang's little scratching his head, Tong Rongguang, director of the Provincial Department of Transportation, has a headache.
In fact, we received a joint application from Anxian County, Jing County and the Municipal Transportation Bureau. After careful study, Tong Rongguang knew in his heart that the special transportation funds allocated to Anxian County would definitely exceed the standard. But the mountain road is connecting An County and Jing County. Basically, the two counties account for half of the two, and it is also a joint application of the two counties. It is equivalent to the ten thousand funds of the dish mouth divided equally by the two counties. In this way, it is also counted within a reasonable range.
And according to his professional eye. Shanshui Road
After discussing with Jiang Tian, it was decided that the mountain road should be named Shanshui Road. The friendship between the brothers and sisters is indeed a road to prosperity that is beneficial to the people of the two counties. The slightly more affluent towns of Anxian and Jing are all in the eastern part of Yan City. However, the towns and villages in the western concession area are still as poor as they were in the mid-80s, and some families can only eat enough for half a year, and for the remaining half a year, they go hungry twice a day because they are deep in the mountains and have inconvenient transportation.
If the Shanshui Road is opened, it is equivalent to a very valuable road to the sky in the western mountainous area of Anxian County.
If you go from west to east, through the county seat of Anxian County, then to Danbao Township, then to Yan City, and then to Jing County, you will have to detour more than 100 kilometers to say the least. However, as soon as the mountains and rivers are passed, it is shortened to a concave kilometer, and there are many towns and villages on both sides of the road that benefit.
Tong Rongguang, as the director of the Department of Transportation, looks at the problem in a slightly different way than Xia Xiang. He is more concerned about what benefits a road can bring to the people along the road, and the scenic spot between the two counties proposed by Xia Xiang does not have any bright spots in his opinion. But although he dismisses the great role of Shanshui Road in promoting tourism in the two counties, it does not affect his approval of Shanshui Road, and if it were not for Tan Long's phone call and Governor Fan's hints, he would have approved it with a big stroke of his pen.
Tan Long has always had a good relationship with him, and when he called, he also bluntly said that he didn't want Xia Can to ask for funds from the provincial department, because Xia Xiang had opposed him when he was in the urban village reconstruction team. Tan Long used to have some favors on Tong Rongguang, and Tong Rongguang had to give him three points of face.
If only one Tan Long came forward, then next Gao Jinzhou called to inquire about the situation of Shanshui Road, Tong Rongguang would be able to push the boat down the river, and he could also approve it on the grounds that Vice Governor Gao had asked. But he received a personal call from Governor Fan, and Governor Fan didn't know where he learned about Shanshui Road, and seemed to ask a few words casually, but the meaning of the words made Tong Rongguang's heart tremble, because Governor Fan clearly hinted to him that this matter could not be approved!
Tong Rongguang didn't know much about Anxian and Jing counties. He is not familiar with Xia Xiang and Jiang Tian, he just looks at Shanshui Road from the perspective of the director of the Provincial Department of Transportation, and thinks it is feasible from his heart. But things in officialdom are not feasible and can be done, from the moment Tan Long called, and then even Governor Fan personally inquired about the matter, Tong Rongguang had to be surprised, Xia Xiang, an executive deputy county magistrate, how could he offend the executive deputy mayor and governor? It actually alarmed them to call in person. It's really a shame
Gao Jinzhou's face is in Tong Rongguang's eyes. can only be comparable to Tan Long. But as soon as Governor Fan came forward. Tong Rongguang could only sigh helplessly, glanced at the materials reported on the landscape road a few times, and was about to throw it aside and ignore it again.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he went to work in the afternoon, Tong Rongguang received a call from Song Chaodu.
As early as when Song Chaodu was the secretary general of the provincial party committee. Tong Rongguang and Song Chaodu knew each other, although they were not very familiar with each other and their relationship was not close enough, but they appreciated each other and dealt with each other a few times.
Song Chaodu called. first reminisced about the past, and then the topic changed, and it fell to the landscape road: "Rongguang, you and I have been friends for many years, and I won't detour if I have some words." Xia Xiang has a very good relationship with me, he wants to build a mountain road, but also for the sake of the local economy, which is a good thing, and the funds allocated by the provincial department are also in line with the policy. I'll just get straight to it. The first time I solemnly bring this matter up to you, I hope you will let it go. Let it go, I owe you a favor. Don't let go, I also know your difficulties, don't force it
Tong Rongguang put down the phone, still feeling incredible. He knows Song Chaodu, Song Chaodu has always been cautious in speaking, and his character is also very strong, and he rarely asks for help directly. Now for the sake of Xia Xiang, a deputy county magistrate, call him directly, reminisce about the old feelings and talk about love, it can be said that in order to maintain Xia Xiang, spare no effort This Xia Xiang, how can it be worth Song Chaodu to make such a big move?
After thinking about it, even Tan Long and Governor Fan have also had problems with this matter, and a landscape and a deputy county magistrate have become the focus of political wrestling, alarming one governor and two vice governors. It's really politically nothing!
Tong Rongguang couldn't help but feel a big headache.
Song Chaodu's words are very serious, although he is only a vice governor now, he is young, and he is younger than Fan Ruiheng. What is the concept of the old year, as long as he walks steadily, even if he has no political achievements at all, he can defeat Fan Ruiheng in terms of age and finally achieve a decisive victory.
It is almost certain that if the Song Dynasty can be reactivated, it will definitely be in a high position in the future. Tong Rongguang didn't want to offend Song Chaodu, and from his original intention, he was also willing to see the connection of mountains and rivers. But judging from the current situation, the face of a Song Dynasty is not enough to compete with Governor Fan.
What to do? Tong Rongguang was at a loss.
Tong Rongguang has a good relationship with Fan Ruiheng, but he is also a person with his own principles, in front of too many political performance projects and face projects. finally saw a mountain road that really looked out for the people, but he was met with resistance from all sides, and he couldn't even approve the funds. Can you only throw the application and approval letter of Shanshui Road into the garbage basket?
Tong Rongguang thought about it again and again, but still sighed helplessly. He didn't dare to refute Fan Ruiheng's face, Tan Long's face could not be given, Governor Fan was the number two person in the province, and he couldn't help but listen to his words.
Tong Rongguang picked up the application form again, shook his head, and was about to throw it into the garbage basket, at this time. The phone rang again,,
Tong Rongguang looked at the telephone number, and it was the provincial party committee, he couldn't help but shake his head, and then took a closer look, and was taken aback, it was the office phone number of Governor Ma!
As the Executive Vice Governor in charge of transportation. He knew Governor Ma's phone number by heart, after all, he was his immediate superior and had direct jurisdiction. Tong Rongguang hurriedly took the phone and said respectfully
"Glory, I read the application letter for Shanshui Road. I also understand the details, it is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, my opinion is. The Department of Transportation is requested to give appropriate policy preferences as much as possible. If there is any resistance from other quarters, it will be my opinion as the deputy governor in charge."
"Smack". Ma Wanzheng hung up the phone directly. Don't give Tong Rongguang a chance to speak.
Governor Ma is so resolute, it seems that the strength of support is also quite large. Tong Rongguang was stunned for a long time with the phone in his hand, and his heart was shocked or shocked. I don't know how sharp it is, he suddenly smiled meaningfully, a short mountain road of Tian Kilometer, Dan Qu Wan's funds, actually alarmed the nerves of all parties. It seems that Xia Xiang, the deputy county magistrate, is not an ordinary strong, and the people who support and oppose him are extraordinary figures.
The three vice governors, two of them, members of the Standing Committee, should be said to have given him enough steps for approval, not to mention that Governor Ma is still in charge of the vice governor!
Tong Rongguang took the application for approval, looked at it a few times, and then solemnly signed his name, and after the name, he forcefully sent a solid full stop. Tong Rongguang's solid full stop signature means that it must be handled in a real way, and there can be no delay!
Of course, if after he signed, he drew a hollow name, which means that the approval is also a blank approval, don't do a practical thing, but do an empty thing.
After signing his name, he looked at the time, and it was just time to get off work, so he stood up and stretched, and was about to go out, but the phone rang at an inopportune time.
Tong Rongguang was almost taken aback, because a mountain road with a field of kilometers had received calls from too many important people today, and now who would give him orders? Instinctively I didn't want to answer the phone, but after thinking about it, I felt that there were still too many heads and brains to provoke, so I had to go back and answer the phone.
"Director Tong, I'm Chen Feng. I came to the provincial party committee to do business, I happened to pass by your traffic department, and when I saw the time to get off work, how was it, did I have time to have a meal together? ”
Chen Feng? Tong Rongguang was stunned for a moment.
He didn't have much contact with Chen Feng, and he hadn't dealt with him much, so why would Chen Feng find himself all of a sudden? But on second thought, Chen Feng is not what it used to be. He is no longer the mayor of the shogunate, but the secretary of the municipal party committee, the key is that he is still a member of the Standing Committee of the provincial party committee and the leader of the provincial party committee!
is another character who can't afford to offend, Tong Rongguang smiled bitterly: "Secretary Chen has spoken, of course I have time, you say the location, I'll go over immediately." ”
However, the meal with Chen Feng was not bad. Because Chen Feng also came for the landscape road. Tong Rongguang has already signed, of course, he is happy to give Chen Feng a favor, after all, Secretary Chen is a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and a dignified deputy provincial cadre.
Well, the three members of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee came forward to help the kilometer-long landscape road, which is a small road that cannot be smaller in Tong Rongguang's career as the director, and the amount of funds is not large, but it is a mountain road that has alarmed the most Standing Committee members and touched the attention of the most important people!
Tong Rongguang was full of emotion.
Tong Rongguang's emotion Xia Xiang couldn't hear it, after he heard the news that the provincial department had approved the special fund. happily found Qiu Xufeng and Mei Xiaolin, and discussed with the two to start construction as soon as possible and try to complete it before winter. Qiu Xufeng and Mei Xiaolin were also very happy, the three of them had a meeting, and decided that Qiu Xufeng would personally take command as the commander-in-chief, Mei Xiaolin would be the deputy commander-in-chief, and Xia Xiang would be the general person in charge of the project.
At the same time, Jing County also mobilized. A command center with the secretary of the county party committee as the commander-in-chief and the county magistrate as the deputy commander-in-chief was set up, and a mobilization meeting was held. Soon after, on a sunny day, Xia Xiang and Jiang Tian were at the beginning of the mountain roads in Anxian and Jingxian respectively, and the two held telephones in their hands. At the same time, the start of construction was announced, and with a loud blasting sound, the waterway officially broke ground.
At the beginning of the construction of the waterway, Xia Xiang was at the construction site almost day and night, because the Shanshui Road was in the mountainous area and was prone to sudden dangerous situations, so he set an example and went to the front line to supervise the construction safety, eating and living at the construction site, staring at it for a week, until the project responsible personnel fully realized the importance of safety and did not dare to slack off at all. He had to return to the county party committee because there was still work to be done in the county.
As soon as the county party committee arrived, it was just in time for the emergency meeting of the Standing Committee, which was jointly proposed by Fang Yuhui and Deng Junjie on the topic of building a new resort at the foot of the Sanshi Scenic Area.
Fang Yuhui and Di Junjie have an aura of ambition to win, and they cite a lot of reasons, which fully show that the new resort will form a healthy competition with the original resort, which will be of great benefit to the promotion of the real estate industry and tourism market in Anxian County. Moreover, Comrade Tan Long, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and executive vice mayor, is also very concerned about the new resort, and also put forward several points and requirements. In addition, Comrade Chen Yulong, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, also passed through other channels. There was a lot of interest in the new resort.
The two of them brought out two city party committees, and they just put pressure on everyone to get the Standing Committee to pass the proposal smoothly.
