Secretary Lu was a little lonely and helpless when he heard Qin Ge's tone, and knew that he actually wanted to get to know Wu Dongsheng in his heart, and especially hoped that through Wu Dongsheng's relationship, he would let him say a few good words to himself from the general secretary, so that the general secretary would think of him next time he had any promotion opportunities.

It was precisely because of Qin Ge's urgency that when Wu Dongsheng was on the phone just now, Secretary Lu gave him a preventive injection, saying that he might take someone to dinner in the evening, and the person Secretary Lu wanted to bring was Qin Ge.

Therefore, after listening to Qin Ge's stupid words, Secretary Lu smiled and said: "Comrade Qin Ge, let me tell you a message: tomorrow is the 80th birthday of Comrade Wu Dongsheng's mother, and he will take a leave of absence for three days and go back to his hometown to celebrate his mother's birthday. He will take the car back to his hometown early tomorrow morning, I have just asked Xiao Xu to book a box in Furong Garden, if you are free at night, you can go with me to receive Comrade Wu Dongsheng, when the time comes, the three of us have a good drink of wine, have a good chat, Wu Dongsheng This comrade is very young, very promising, and very principled, very cautious, easy not to have a deep friendship with local officials, but, as far as I know, he is also a very affectionate, very emotional person, if he is willing to make friends with you, Then he will treat you as a real friend, as long as he can help, he will definitely help, I don't know if you want to go. ”

When Qin Ge heard that Secretary Lu actually offered to take him to receive Director Wu Dongsheng, his eyes widened again, and his gratitude to Secretary Lu was almost indescribable: You must know that a person like Director Wu Dongsheng is in a key position, he is very particular about who he sees and who he doesn't see. Sometimes they even try to prevent the other party from meeting with that important person, which is actually a kind of officialdom relationship and a competitive relationship, so this situation is very common and numerous.

But now, without knowing it, Secretary Lu took the initiative to tell himself that Director Wu would come to Tianjiang tonight, and also took the initiative to invite himself to have dinner and drink with Director Wu.

Thinking of this, Qin Ge only felt that his heart was sour, and he was both grateful and admired Secretary Lu, and finally managed to control his agitated emotions, and tried his best to say in a relatively calm tone: "Secretary Lu, if I can have dinner with Director Wu, ask him for some information about the high-level, and understand the general secretary's policy program and policy line, of course I can't ask for it, how can I not want to go, it's just that this time Director Wu took the initiative to find you, maybe he has something private to tell you, If I go along, will it be inconvenient, and will Director Wu have any opinions or ideas? ”

Secretary Lu smiled heartily and said: "Comrade Qin Ge, in fact, before you came to my office, I had already called Director Wu, saying that I was going to take you over to meet him and have dinner with him, Director Wu happily agreed, you can rest assured, I never engage in those sneaky things, I can say anything in front of the five hundred public, there will be no evasive topics, everything must be said to others, this is a principle that I have walked in the officialdom in the past few years, and it is also a motto I pursue about official character and character, so, You can rest assured, just follow me, don't have any suspicion and estrangement,

"Also, when you see Director Wu at night, you don't have to be restrained, if you have anything to say, what you have to think, just say it, even if you want to be promoted, want to get the general secretary's appreciation of such sensitive topics, but it doesn't hurt to say it, after all, since we are now in this officialdom, everyone wants to be affirmed by their superiors, and everyone also wants to progress, you have been the governor of Tianjiang for so many years, and you have made such a great contribution to Tianjiang's economic development and social progress. It's reasonable to want to have a bigger stage to show your talents, and there's nothing to be embarrassed about, right? ”

Secretary Lu's words were purely for Qin Ge's sake, and the implication was to encourage him to talk more about his inner thoughts to Director Wu and promote himself to him.

Of course, Qin Ge could understand Secretary Lu's good intentions, and he admired it even more in his heart, but he was embarrassed to say anything like gratitude, he just stared at Secretary Lu with very eager and moved eyes, and kept nodding,

After Secretary Lu finished speaking, Qin Ge suddenly remembered a question, and asked a little hesitantly: "Secretary Lu, since tomorrow is Director Wu's mother's 80th birthday, should we also find a way to congratulate him, although we can't go to his hometown, but we have to say something." ”

Secretary Lu nodded and said: "I know this in my heart, the old mother's eighty birthday, we don't know the way, now since we know the way, there must be a little expression, this is not anything else, it is a congratulatory and congratulatory expression, but also for the old mother of the family to add blessings and longevity, my idea is: according to the usual rules of drinking birthday wine with gifts, both of us give a red envelope with the word longevity, I and Director Wu are ancient friends for many years, and they are also friends, so I prepared a red envelope of 4,000 yuan, Take the meaning of the four seasons of peace, and as for you, let it be as you wish. ”

Qin Ge heard Secretary Lu tell him all the numbers of the red envelopes, and he was even more grateful, and after thinking about it, he said: "Then I will follow your wishes, just make a red envelope of 4,000 yuan, if you play too much, it is estimated that Director Wu will not ask for it, hehe." ”

After discussing this matter properly, Secretary Lu felt that the time was ripe, so he picked up the folder on the sofa again, opened it again, took out the report on the tax evasion of Zhenxing Company and looked at it, and then said to Qin Ge: "Comrade Qin Ge, I also want to inform you of a situation: Comrade Wang Hai had already found me yesterday, saying that he was going to take half a year of sick leave because of serious diabetes and recuperate in the hospital. He asked the provincial party committee to temporarily designate a deputy secretary general to temporarily act as his post. ”
