Chapter 35
"Ge Jianming and Chen Xing won't really join forces." Li Haocheng kept thinking about whether the two top party and government leaders in Nanzhou City had joined forces, and Ge Jianming had just supported Chen Xing at the Standing Committee meeting, was there any special reason for it? Did the two come to some kind of agreement? If the two really come together, it will obviously not be good news for the local faction, and let Li Haocheng's dissatisfaction with Chen Xing be put aside, Li Haocheng doesn't want to see this result.
Li Haocheng's brows tightened more and more, if in the future, Ge Jianming always stood on Chen Xing's side, then he would not be able to be the executive deputy mayor, at least not like now, but if this situation continues to develop, and when Chen Xing gains a firm foothold in Nanzhou City, then his life will still be difficult, Li Haocheng thought.
It's just that Li Haocheng always thinks about what Chen Xing will do in the future, but he has never looked at himself correctly, he is just the deputy mayor, even if the word executive has to be added in front of him, but he is not the mayor after all, Chen Xing, as the acting mayor, should have the power to make the final decision in the daily affairs of the municipal government, Li Haocheng only thought that Chen Xing's power would weaken his power after he held it, but he never thought that it was his over-inflated power ** that was causing trouble, and what he wanted now was not just satisfied with the power of an executive deputy mayor.
I don't know what I thought, Li Haocheng picked up the phone on the table, skillfully dialed a number, and the moment the 'toop' phone was sounded, Li Haocheng's originally tense face instantly became respectful, "Old secretary, I'm disturbing your work." Undoubtedly, Li Haocheng called the old leader Wang Qinghai.
"Xiao Li, it's you." Wang Qinghai happened to be in the office today, and he was quite surprised that Li Haocheng called him at this time, and joked, "Mayor Li, you won't call me at this time because you want to report to work." β
"Old secretary, don't make fun of me." Li Haocheng smiled bitterly, he knew that Wang Qinghai didn't mean anything to call him 'Mayor Li', but he had always been angry about Chen Xing, an outsider, who had robbed him of the mayor's position, and when he heard this 'mayor' title, the unwillingness in his heart was aroused a little bit, coupled with today's incident on the Standing Committee, Li Haocheng became more and more unhappy, if he was the mayor, the matter would be a completely different result.
"Xiao Li, I didn't say you, you are still young, there will be opportunities in the future, there is no need to rush for a while." Wang Qinghai listened to Li Haocheng's tone, and he didn't know what the person who had been his secretary for a few years thought, and kindly persuaded him, he understood Chen Xing's background, and didn't want to completely stand on the opposite side with Chen Xing, although Li Haocheng was pulled up by him, but without this opportunity, there will be a chance next time, Wang Qinghai doesn't want Li Haocheng to walk into a dead end, Wang Qinghai, who has already seen through the officialdom's deception, summed up one in his heart, that is, he must do everything within his ability, Wang Qinghai is now taking a back seat and serving as the number one in the National People's Congress, The influence is still there, but he doesn't want Li Haocheng to be an enemy of Chen Xing.
"Old secretary, I'm just panicking in my heart." Li Haocheng sighed helplessly, just said, Li Haocheng changed the topic, the old leader is not the object of his bitterness, he just wanted to tell the old leader about the Standing Committee when he made this call today, and said, "Old secretary, today's Standing Committee, Ge Jianming and Chen Xing have come together." Ge Jianming talked about what happened at the Standing Committee.
"Oh, Ge Jianming's unequivocal support for Chen Xing?" Wang Qinghai frowned, carefully pondering the information implied in Li Haocheng's words just now.
"Yes, Ge Jianming's support for Chen Xing also led me to be denied at the Standing Committee." Li Haocheng nodded, he didn't deliberately add oil and vinegar this time, but told the truth.
"It seems that Ge Jianming wants to win over Chen Xing."
"It should be like this, Chen Xing is also an airborne soldier, Ge Jianming has no reason not to win over, if the party and government leaders are united, the situation in Nanzhou City will be really difficult to say, maybe the current pattern will really change completely, and the living space of local cadres will become smaller and smaller." Mr. Lee voiced his concerns.
"Don't worry, it's unlikely that that kind of situation will really happen, Governor Baolai is the first to be the first to see that kind of situation happen, even Secretary Youjun has to consider the impact." Wang Qinghai said.
"I hope I'm too worried, and I'm also worried that once Ge Jianming and Chen Xing unite, they will rectify the city, and then the cadres from the local faction will be suppressed." Li Haocheng smiled bitterly.
"Well, your worries are not groundless, for the current pattern of Nanzhou City, I will communicate with Governor Baolai, now this situation is the biggest concession we have made, even Secretary Youjun does not dare to make any adjustments to the local cadres at this juncture, we put away our sharp teeth, it does not mean that our local faction has completely lost ground." Wang Qinghai relieved Li Haocheng, Li Haocheng said this situation, he also had to pay attention to it, as one of the bigwigs of the local faction, although Wang Qinghai and the governor Shun Baolai have some differences, but the starting point of both of them is to safeguard the interests of the local faction, which is also a matter of vital interest for them personally.
"With the old secretary and Governor Baolai at the helm, these people below us will be at ease." Li Haocheng said with a smile and flattery.
"You Xiao Li, the sycophants are quite smooth." Wang Qinghai scolded with a smile, thinking of Chen Xing's matter, Wang Qinghai worried about it again, "Xiao Li, I still say the same thing, you don't need to go-for-tat with Chen Xing now, there will be better opportunities in the future, the old secretary will help you fight, you are what I watched grow up, step by step to your current position, the old secretary also hopes that you can go further." β
"Old secretary, I will keep your teachings in mind." Hearing Wang Qinghai's words, Li Haocheng retracted his thoughts slightly and coped with it.
"I know that you are still unwilling in your heart, but there is no way to do some things, you are not afraid of no firewood if you stay in Qingshan, you don't need to offend Chen Xing now and cause disadvantage to yourself in the future." Wang Qinghai is not unconcerned about Li Haocheng, speaking of which, Li Haocheng can be regarded as his protΓ©gΓ©, and it took a lot of effort to help Li Haocheng to his current position, Wang Qinghai has placed a lot of hopes on Li Haocheng, and he even has the idea of cultivating Li Haocheng as a successor and becoming the pillar of the local faction.
At this time, Li Haocheng just responded to Wang Qinghai's words casually, he heard Wang Qinghai's words, but he didn't listen to them, the two ended the call, Li Haocheng's face was gloomy again, the Standing Committee just now really made Li Haocheng very unwilling.
The office of Ge Jianming, secretary of the municipal party committee.
"Chen Xing, I see that Vice Mayor Li's face just now is very unsightly, I'm afraid he is dissatisfied with the voting results of the Standing Committee." In the office, Ge Jianming was pouring tea for Chen Xing, while talking, Ge Jianming, whose eyes were narrowed into a slit, showed an inexplicable smile in his eyes, and the smile on the result of today's meeting, if Li Haocheng could think that Chen Xing was falling to his side, then he would be more satisfied.
"Secretary Ge, I'll do it myself." Chen Xing politely took the tea poured by Ge Jianming, and frowned, "If Vice Mayor Li has any dissatisfaction, then there is no way, the morning meeting is just a matter of facts, and no one is targeted." β
Chen Xing understood what Ge Jianming meant, Ge Jianming's words meant that Li Haocheng might feel that the two of them might join forces to stumble on him, in this regard, Chen Xing could only have an indifferent attitude, it was going to rain, his mother was going to get married, so he could only go with him, no matter what Li Haocheng thought in his heart, he would never let him come to the door with a hot face and stick to someone's cold ass to explain to him carefully, such a result might be counterproductive, making Li Haocheng feel that he was just pretending to be like this, besides, Chen Xing is the leader of the municipal government, There is no need to do that, at the moment, Chen Xing actually has some intention of showing weakness to the enemy, Li Haocheng really wants to go against him all the time, Chen Xing will not make a move, and if he makes a move, it will definitely be a thunderbolt.
"Secretary Ge, I have to talk to you about another thing today." Chen Xing changed the topic, although Ge Jianming supported him, his real attitude towards him was also ambiguous, Chen Xing didn't want to be a gunman.
"Chen Xing, in my place, you can just say anything about it." Ge Jianming said with a smile.
"Secretary Ge, the construction of affordable housing in this phase has slowed down, and some have even stopped construction, I mean that the construction of affordable housing cannot be stopped, no matter how tight the city's financial funds are, we must give priority to ensuring the construction of affordable housing, I don't know what Secretary Ge thinks?" Chen Xing looked at Ge Jianming, the construction of affordable housing stopped, Chen Xing understood, there is also Ge Jianming's meaning, Ge Jianming tried his best to promote several large projects this year, and the city's finances were not sufficient, so he could only squeeze out funds from other places, and the special funds for the construction of affordable housing became the object of sacrifice, and Chen Xing's foundation is still shallow, and the financial power is not in his own hands, so he can only seek Ge Jianming's support.
"Chen Xing, the construction of affordable housing is only temporarily stopped, and when the city's finances are abundant, it will be restarted immediately, not that it will not be built, this is a project that benefits people's livelihood, and it will not be stopped like this." Ge Jianming smiled disapprovingly, and secretly dismissed Chen Xing's meaning.
Chen Xing did not stay in Ge Jianming's office for a long time, Chen Xing was disappointed in Ge Jianming's attitude towards the construction of affordable housing, but he couldn't say anything, each official has his own ideas and insights, which is like the dispute between conservatives and reformers.
And Chen Xing, he really hopes to do more practical things within the scope of his ability, political achievements are important, but the interests of the people must be put first, Chen Xing may have this and that problem, but in his belief in being an official, Chen Xing has never changed.
Just as Chen Xinggang left Ge Jianming's office, Shen Lingyue, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, looked at his secretary Zhou Tiegang, "Chen Xinggang left?" β
"Well, I just left Secretary Ge's office." Zhou Tiegang nodded.
Shen Lingyue nodded thoughtfully, and then thinking about the situation just after graduating from the Standing Committee, Shen Lingyue's mood was obviously not much better.
After eating at noon, Chen Xing called Xiao Yuanqing, and left the city government by car, upstairs, Deng Qingming, who had not left, watched Xiao Yuanqing get into Chen Xing's car, and the car drove away outside the city government, Deng Qingming's face was cloudy, his secretary did not seem to be as popular as Xiao Yuanqing, the newly arrived deputy director, in front of Chen Xing, which made Deng Qingming feel a strong sense of crisis in his heart, his secretary did not get Chen Xing's real trust, which was fatal to him.
"Yuanqing, did you buy the fruit?" Chen Xing asked Xiao Yuanqing.
"I'll have someone buy it in the morning and put it in the back compartment." Xiao Yuanqing said with a smile.
Chen Xing nodded with satisfaction, the car drove slowly on the road in the city, and went to the First Hospital of Nanzhou City, Chen Xing also learned in the morning that Shao Huadong's wife was now hospitalized, this is the news that Xiao Yuanqing inquired, Chen Xing originally went to Shao Huadong's house to visit, and now he went directly to the hospital.
In the cadre ward of the First Hospital of Nanzhou City, Shao Huadong, who was accompanying his wife, was surprised when he saw Chen Xing coming, and few people knew about his wife's hospitalization, Shao Huadong did not make a noise, and strictly ordered the secretary not to say it, that is because Shao Huadong did not like his wife to be disturbed, his wife was not in good health, and there were usually many people who came to visit the door in the name of visiting, and when they came, they were a lot of gifts, and they didn't know whether they were really visiting patients or bribing him as a deputy mayor in disguise.
"Xiao Chen, go and pour Mayor Chen a cup of tea." Shao Huadong asked Chen Xing to sit down, and at the same time instructed his secretary Chen Yang, his eyes swept over Chen Xing, his eyes were full of doubts, Shao Huadong did not ask.
Chen Xing sat down with a smile, glanced inside, and said with concern, "Vice Mayor Shao's wife is in good health." β
"It's the same as before, if you have been sick for a long time, your physique is not good, and if you have a cold or something, you have to come to the hospital." Shao Huadong's eyes flashed a trace of helplessness and pain, his wife has had uremia for several years, and now there is a trend of deterioration, this time he was admitted to the hospital again, the doctor estimated that the situation was not optimistic, and he had already built a matching kidney Shao Huadong was looking for a matching kidney, while he was not very old now, there was great hope for a kidney transplant, and the key now was whether there was a suitable kidney.
"Now that medicine is so developed, I believe that your wife's health will get better, Vice Mayor Shao should not be too pessimistic." Chen Xing comforted.
"Thank you Mayor Chen for your concern, Mayor Chen is so busy with work, he doesn't need to come over." Shao Huadong glanced at Chen Xing.
"Anyway, you should come and have a look." Chen Xing heard a faint indifference and distance from Shao Huadong's words, and he didn't care, it was normal for Shao Huadong to be a little wary of him.
Chen Xing sat for a while, and then proposed to go inside to visit Shao Huadong's wife, Shao Huadong was a little embarrassed, and said with a wry smile, "She just finished eating and is taking a nap, or Mayor Chen will wait a while, I will go in and take a look, and wake her up if I can wake her up." β
"Don't, don't wake up during your lunch break, in this room, the patient comes first, I don't dare to be this sinner." Chen Xing hurriedly stopped Shao Huadong, he came to visit Shao Huadong's wife was just a means, the purpose was to convey a signal of goodwill to Shao Huadong, and also pave the way for him to win over Shao Huadong.
Shao Huadong heard Chen Xing say this, nodded, and did not go inside, the cadre ward of this hospital is a small suite, the outside is the living room, and the inside is the ward, Shao Huadong also used the power in his hands to favor his wife once, otherwise his wife would not be qualified to live in.
"Why didn't Vice Mayor Shao send his wife to the capital for treatment? Whether it is medical conditions or medical level, Beijing is more than one level higher than our Nanzhou City. Chen Xing sat down again and smiled at Shao Huadong.
"It's not that I haven't thought about it, but I don't have any friends and acquaintances in the capital, and I, the deputy mayor, can borrow this old face in Nanzhou City to make the hospital's pedestrian convenience a little more convenient, and when I get to the capital, there is nothing I can do, and it is hard to say whether the hospital will mobilize the best doctors and equipment to treat her, it is better to stay in Nanzhou, the hospital will take it seriously for the sake of my face, and besides, she also wants to stay at home, and she doesn't want to go too far, and she can only be in Nanzhou." Shao Huadong shook his head and said, he, the deputy mayor of the Standing Committee, can eat well in Nanzhou City, but he will not use it when he arrives in the capital, it is precisely because of these concerns that Shao Huadong did not let his wife go to the capital for treatment, and Nanzhou City, as the provincial capital, has the best medical conditions and level in Nanhai Province, and it is okay in China, it is precisely because of these factors that Shao Huadong decided to let his wife be treated nearby, and his wife agreed, she herself did not want to be too far away from home.
"What stage of uremia is your wife now?" Chen Xing looked at Shao Huadong, "As far as I know, this disease has to be a kidney transplant in the end to have any hope of survival." β
"Yes, the end result is a kidney transplant." Shao Huadong's face was a little more tired, mentioning his wife's condition, Shao Huadong didn't even bother to pay attention to the fights in the officialdom, he just hoped that his wife would be healthy, Chen Xing said this, Shao Huadong's face was a little less vigilant, "Now it's almost an advanced stage, and I've been doing dialysis for the past few years, according to the doctor, although dialysis can replace the detoxification function of the kidneys, long-term dialysis will lead the kidneys to lose their residual kidney function, and the condition has been developing in the direction of strictness. Although dialysis was accompanied by the doctor's advice to use traditional Chinese medicine to protect the residual kidney function, the effect was limited after all, and now it is time to replace the kidney, and the hospital is also helping to find the kidney. β
"It's really not easy to find a matching kidney."
"Who's to say it isn't." Shao Huadong smiled bitterly.
Chen Xing looked at Shao Huadong, and it was almost time to say what he meant, and said, "Vice Mayor Shao should also know that I have worked in the capital for a while, yesterday I asked a friend to ask, it just so happened that my friend has acquaintances in Union Hospital and **, if Vice Mayor Shao is willing, you can let your wife go to the capital for treatment, whether it is Union Hospital or **, will ensure that the best renal surgeons and internists are mobilized to treat your wife, and promise that if there is a kidney resource pool in their hospital that matches your wife, Be willing to give priority to your wife. β
"What, what you said is true?" Shao Huadong stood up in shock, with an irrepressible surprise on his face, Chen Yang, the secretary who had been sitting on the side, also glanced in the direction of Chen Xing in surprise, and soon, Chen Yang stood up and walked outside with interest, at this time, Xiao Yuanqing, who came with him, also smiled and walked out with Chen Yang, and then, the conversation between the two leaders was not necessarily suitable for them to listen to.
"Of course it's true, this is a matter of human life, I don't dare to joke with Vice Mayor Shao about this kind of thing." Chen Xing said with a smile.
Shao Huadong had obviously not recovered from the great joy yet, and walked around the small living room, very excited, and opened his mouth several times, as if he wanted to say something.
"Vice Mayor Shao, your wife's current situation is also relatively strict, there is no matching kidney resources here in Nanzhou City for the time being, let's not talk about when you can find the right kidney, even if you find it, to tell the truth, kidney transplantation is a major operation, although the medical technology and level of Nanzhou City are not bad, but this kind of major surgery, it must be right to find a better hospital and doctor, I am Vice Mayor Shao asked his wife to go to the capital for treatment." Chen Xingjian said.
Chen Xing's words made Shao Huadong very moved, the most important thing is that Chen Xing solved a problem he was more worried about, whether it is Union Hospital or as the first of the General Military Medical Hospital, the medical technology and level of the two hospitals must not be said, they are second to none in the country, Shao Huadong himself has no acquaintances, but Chen Xing can help him introduce, if the two hospitals really make such a promise, then Shao Huadong has no reason not to let his wife go to the capital.
"Hey, it's not impossible to go to the capital, but there is no one to take care of it, and I feel a little uneasy." Shao Huadong smiled bitterly.
"What about Vice Mayor Shao's children?" Chen Xing wondered.
"I have a son, and I'm still in my third year of college." Shao Huadong shook his head, in Nanzhou City for treatment, he hired a nurse to take care of his wife, usually when he got off work, he could also come to the hospital as soon as possible, and he could accompany his wife at noon and evening every day, if he went to the capital for treatment, he would be a little inconvenient.
Chen Xing nodded understandingly, he didn't know what to say for a while, the room fell into a short silence, Shao Huadong gradually regained his composure at this time after being excited, and glanced at Chen Xing quietly, Shao Huadong sighed in his heart, the Standing Committee in the morning, Shao Huadong has always been silent, and has not been involved in the battle between Chen Xing and Li Haocheng, it is said that Shao Huadong and Li Haocheng are from the local camp, but Shao Huadong and Li Haocheng are two completely different people, Li Haocheng acts in a high-profile manner, and likes to put on a show, likes to be in the limelight very much, while Shao Huadong can be low-key as low-key as possible, and the two are almost two extremes.
Shao Huadong disagrees with Li Haocheng's behavior, but he and Li Haocheng are often consistent in the Standing Committee, take the Standing Committee in the morning, Shao Huadong remained silent, but in the end voted for Li Haocheng, Chen Xing will get Ge Jianming's support, which is somewhat unexpected by Shao Huadong, but he is too lazy to care about these things, the Standing Committee in the morning has just ended, Chen Xing came to the hospital to visit his wife at noon, and offered to help such a big favor, Shao Huadong can guess Chen Xing's thoughts, but it is undeniable, It was difficult for him to refuse this olive branch thrown by Chen Xing.
Glancing at the ward with a complicated expression, Shao Huadong had decided to accept Chen Xing's kindness almost without much weighing, for Shao Huadong, family affection was irreplaceable.
"Mayor Chen, thank you for your kindness, I won't say anything superfluous, this love, I Shao Huadong keep it in my heart." Shao Huadong said solemnly to Chen Xing.
When Chen Xing heard Shao Huadong say this, a trace of joy flashed between his eyebrows, Shao Huadong was going to accept his help, and Chen Xing's goal today was still achieved.
"Vice Mayor Shao, that's without further ado, I'll contact my friends in the capital later, whether you want to go to Union Hospital or ** It's up to Vice Mayor Shao to decide for yourself, think about it and tell me, I'll ask my friends in the capital to help arrange, Vice Mayor Shao can take his wife to the capital at any time." Chen Xing said with a smile.
"Let's go to 301." Shao Huadong hesitated for a moment and made a decision, after all, it was the General Military Medical Hospital, and many national leaders were also treating their diseases there, Shao Huadong subconsciously trusted 301 more.
"Okay, then I'll contact you later, Vice Mayor Shao, you can be ready at any time." Chen Xing smiled and nodded.
When he came out of the hospital, Chen Xing's face was full of smiles, Shao Huadong is the deputy mayor of the Standing Committee, and his weight in the municipal government is very important, Chen Xing wants to divide and resolve the cadres of the local faction, and it is undoubtedly the right way to find a breakthrough from Shao Huadong.
Jindu Hotel, general manager Lu Xiaojing's office ushered in an uninvited guest, Tan Fang withdrew after inviting people in, Lu Xiaojing looked at the young man in front of him, and said please sit down, his face was not too enthusiastic, "You said that you came to me for a major matter related to the life and death of our hotel, I don't know what it is." β
"I heard that your hotel is experiencing some difficulties, and I want to inject money into your hotel to help your hotel get out of trouble, I don't know what you think?" The young man said.
"Heh, our hotel is not short of money now, and the difficulties encountered by our hotel are not a problem of money, if you talk to me about this, I think you can leave now." Lu Xiaojing's face turned cold, thinking that she was another person who had the idea of beating their Lu family hotel and wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob it.
"Why is Miss Lu in a hurry to reject people from her predecessors, although your hotel still has funds to maintain turnover, but I think those are the old capital of your Lu family, Miss Lu has not thought that once your Lu family's life-saving money is exhausted, and the bank does not lend to you, your hotel can only be a dead end." The young man looked at Lu Xiaojing.
"Even if our hotel is closed, it will not be sold to others, let alone accept other people's capital injection, this hotel, from beginning to end, only surnamed Lu, will not change his surname, even if it goes out of business, it is also surnamed Lu." Lu Xiaojing took the case and stared at the person in front of her angrily, "If you were sent by Lin Hong, you can get out now, you are not welcome in our hotel." β
"Lin Hong? Who is Lin Hong? Now it was the young man's turn to be surprised.
"You weren't sent by Lin Hong?" Lu Xiaojing looked at the young man in front of her in a daze, a little confused for a while, seeing that the other party's expression didn't look like pretending, Lu Xiaojing was also a little surprised, "You really don't know who Lin Hong is?" β
"I don't know, I don't know, why am I lying to you, I only know that your hotel has encountered difficulties, it just so happens that I am also engaged in the catering industry, I just came to Nanzhou City, I want to invest in the catering industry, I heard about some of your hotel, I also specially learned about it, I think you can invest, so I came to talk to Miss Lu, I didn't expect Miss Lu's attitude to be so rushed." The young man shook his head and smiled, not annoyed by Lu Xiaojing's attitude.
"It's me who is impulsive, if you really are not Lin Hong's person, then I apologize to you." Lu Xiaojing said sincerely.
"I definitely have nothing to do with what Lin Hong is called what I told you, the contemptible person is from Haicheng, Jianghai Province, Huang Ming, this is my business card." The young man smiled and handed over his business card.
"It turned out to be Mr. Huang, it was not mine just now, I apologize to Mr. Huang." Lu Xiaojing took a serious look at Huang Ming's business card, and was relieved, looking at Huang Ming's eyes a little more kindly, "Mr. Huang, but I still say the same thing, our hotel will not accept other people's capital injection." β
"Hehe, I'm just here to talk to Miss Lu, Miss Lu don't rush to reject me first, it's not too late to reply after thinking about it, I'll stay in Nanzhou City recently, I'll wait for your news from Miss Lu." Huang Ming smiled, "Miss Lu, I don't plan to control your hotel, I just want to inject capital and occupy a certain percentage of the shares, and I hope Miss Lu will think deeply." β
"Since Mr. Huang said so, then Mr. Huang will wait for my reply, but I still have to tell Mr. Huang in advance, your hope is about to be disappointed." Lu Xiaojing said with a smile, she didn't say anything to death this time, and thought about going back to discuss it with her father.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Outside the door, a figure with his ear on the door of Lu Xiaojing's office hurriedly left.
