"Minister Cai, this is a document that I just picked up from the exchange center." The secretary, Wang Fei, respectfully placed several documents on the desk of Minister Cai Shouwen, who was holding a fax and reading it carefully, and he had been in this posture for almost an hour. The contents of that fax have already been read, and it is better to say that I am reading the contents of the fax.

"Yes, put it there." Cai Shouwen said angrily without raising his head.

It seemed that the secretary Wang Fei's words interrupted his thoughts, Cai Shouwen reached out and touched the desk, found a cigarette in a familiar position, and took out a cigarette in his mouth, and the secretary Wang Fei immediately handed over the lighter that was on fire.

After taking a puff of cigarette and slowly exhaling a puff of smoke, Minister Cai put the fax on the table, looked at the person standing in front of the office, bowed slightly, looked at his secretary intently, pointed to the fax, and said seemingly casually: "Tell me what you think." ”

Wang Fei glanced at the fax, which was sent in the form of an internal telegram. This fax was retrieved by him from the Confidential Bureau, and the contents have already been read, and it is a notice on "doing a good job in the work of the Provincial Party Committee's Announcement Department to come to Fu for investigation and reception," and it was issued by the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee.

In less than 20 days, a research team led by Chen Liangwei, Minister of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee, will settle in Fu'an to carry out a month-long research activity. In fact, before this internal telegram came down, the news about the Provincial Party Committee's Propaganda Department coming to Fu for investigation was already known below, and the relevant preparations had already begun, and the comrades of the Propaganda Department had not had a good rest for several weeks, some relevant archives needed to be improved, and some reception work needed to be prepared in advance.

As the head of the Propaganda Department of the Fu'an County Party Committee, Cai Shouwen naturally bore the brunt of the responsibility and was duty-bound. For a while, he had been thinking about this matter. The research team in the reception province is a double-edged sword, and if it is done well, it will certainly add a heavy stroke to its political achievements, but if the superior leaders are not satisfied, it will not be able to turn over for several years, and if it is not done well, it will delay the future of a lifetime.

Minister Cai asked seemingly casually, but it made Wang Fei's heart sudden, and he had been following Minister Cai for more than two years, and Wang Fei always felt a little puzzled about this leader. At the beginning, Wang Fei misunderstood Minister Cai's intentions several times, and as a result, Minister Cai was extremely cold to him for several days, making him so miserable that he couldn't even sleep well at night, and his hair fell out a lot. After nearly two years of running-in, Wang Fei gradually understood the temperament and preferences of the leader, adapted to the work rhythm of the leader, and gradually reduced the number of times the leader was unhappy because of work. Rao is like this, every time he faces Minister Cai, Wang Fei still maintains a high level of mental tension at all times, and he has to quickly analyze every word that Minister Cai says, and only after understanding the intentions of the leaders clearly can he answer carefully.

Just like the sentence just now, "tell me what you think", what does the leader want you to do? Do you really want to hear your opinion, or do you have something else in mind?

Wang Fei's mind was spinning rapidly. Why do leaders ask themselves that? What did he want to hear? Doing a good job in reception is undoubtedly the top priority of the current propaganda department's work, and if you briefly report on the progress of the preparation of the current reception work, it is naturally the safest, but these are not necessarily what the leaders want to hear. Because even if you don't say it, those things are in the hands of the leader.

There are some things that you can't just look at the performance, you can't just look at the present, you have to consider all the factors together to understand what's going on.

The change of office in the county is about to begin, and I heard that there will be a big change in the county-level leadership this time. Minister Cai is only 42 years old this year, and at the level of county and department-level leaders, he can be regarded as "in the prime of life", and there is hope for further progress in this adjustment. If this reception is done well, it will undoubtedly add a heavy weight to his progress.

In the final analysis, it still depends on this reception, but how should we do a good job in reception?

Wang Fei quickly went through the situation in the county in his mind, and he already had a rough plan in his heart.

"Minister Cai, I think that in our reception work this time, we must make something distinctive, highlight the characteristics of our Fu'an, and make a fuss about mass culture. In recent years, the central government has continuously emphasized the construction of spiritual civilization, and our Fu'an has developed rapidly in recent years, but there are still some deficiencies in cultural construction. ”

In fact, these things were also sporadically realized by Wang Fei in Cai Shouwen's speech, and at this moment, he just changed his statement and repeated it again.

"Yes, we want to highlight the characteristics, and we don't want to do those things that everyone else has. In my opinion, it is not enough to be satisfied with the regular preparations, in the past two days, find time to hold a mobilization work meeting, gather the leaders of the county's cultural system, and let everyone move! Minister Cai said with a wave of his hand.

"Yes, or the minister has thought it through, and I'll go and draft the notice of the meeting right away, minister, what day do you think is appropriate?" Wang Fei asked respectfully.

"Well, sooner rather than later, tomorrow morning. When you give a notice, you must emphasize that each unit must come to the top of the list, and if you don't have something to do, let him ask me for leave in person! Minister Cai said in a deep and forceful voice.

"Okay, I'll get ready right away." Wang Fei said, bent down and took two steps back, before walking out of Minister Cai's office lightly and gently closing the door.

Turning around and returning to his office, drafting the meeting notice, assigning tasks to the office, and preparing meeting materials, Wang Fei immediately ran efficiently. As a proper secretary, he has already mastered this set of jobs.

Before 8 o'clock the next morning, the trolley in front of the Fu'an Hall had already stopped in a row, and the cadres of the Propaganda Department waited at the door early to distribute meeting materials and register for the leaders of various units who came to attend the meeting.

The newly renovated Fu'an Hall is full of heads and brains of various units, and the provincial research team coming to Fu'an is a major event in Fu'an's political life, and these leaders know the stakes and attach great importance to it. Otherwise, although Minister Cai is also a county-level leader, he is not very closely related to the propaganda department, and such a meeting will not be taken very seriously, and at most one deputy will be sent to come.

In order to show that the county attaches great importance to this event, even Pang Chengbin, secretary of the county party committee, has arrived at today's meeting, which is also the reason why most of the top leaders of various units are present. Some of the leaders who could not attend the meeting because they were on a business trip also asked for leave in person with the two bigwigs over the phone.

The meeting lasted for more than an hour, and there was only one core content, that is, to do a good job in this reception task, and to make it distinctive. Pang Chengbin, secretary of the county party committee, said bluntly that if something goes wrong, the top leader must be held accountable. The upcoming re-election, he also has his own ideas, although this time the province is only a minister of propaganda, but he is a very strong figure, it is rumored that the next step may be promoted, either to win the top leadership of the province, or to delegate to the provincial capital city to govern the party, such a great god down, he naturally has to deal with it carefully.

After the meeting was dismissed, Minister Cai left the relevant leaders of the education and cultural system behind and held a small meeting alone.

"Lao Li, this time your Cultural Affairs Bureau must come up with something! You must use your brains to find a way to make some movement and characteristics in the literature and art of the masses, and if you have any difficulties, just ask, I will help you solve them. Minister Cai looked at Li Xiangdong, director of the Cultural Affairs Bureau who was sitting opposite him with a focused expression, and said.

"Yes, please rest assured Minister Cai, our Cultural Bureau has a preliminary plan, to carry out a 'culture to the countryside' activities, organize a number of high-quality programs, in-depth to the county to organize tours, in addition to the activities to welcome July 1st, hold a system of theatrical performances, calligraphy and painting exhibitions, photography exhibitions and recitation competitions, etc., and strive to make the county's cultural activities present a situation of a hundred flowers blooming and a hundred schools of thought contending......" Li Xuehai's report has some "official" flavor, but this is also a semi-formal occasion, It is not an exaggeration for him to report this.

"Well, the idea is good, and we must do a good job of implementation. In addition, all activities must be recorded and videotaped, and in this regard, the television station should cooperate. Minister Cai said.

As soon as the words fell, the director of the TV station nodded his head again and again, with a serious expression.

Then, Minister Cai separately explained the work with the relevant leaders of the Education Bureau, the Finance Bureau, the Public Security Bureau, etc., and then announced the adjournment of the meeting.

Looking at the leaders of various units who walked out of the office one after another, the grim look on Minister Cai's face never relaxed. For him, this is a test and an opportunity, and whether he can grasp it well depends on more than a month.

After thinking about it, Minister Cai still picked up the landline on the table and dialed a number.

"Beep~~Beep~~" After a few waits, there was a soft sound from the earpiece, indicating that the phone had been connected, but there was no sound.

"Hello Minister Jiang, I'm Xiao Cai in Fu'an, Cai Shouwen." Minister Cai said respectfully.

"Oh, it's Xiao Cai." Jiang Yifan's majestic voice came from the other end of the phone, and through the receiver, Cai Shouwen felt a great pressure.

"Minister Cai, we have just held a special work meeting to welcome the provincial research team, and I would like to make a report to you on the reception work in the county......" Cai Shouwen made a report on the work during this period of time and Jiang Yifan for about ten minutes. Supposedly, these reports should be made to the leader, which can also show respect for the leader. However, Cai Shouwen was promoted by Jiang Yifan, and the relationship between the two is relatively close, so there is no need to be so restrained in these subsections.

"Well, yes, Xiao Cai, you have done your work very carefully. This is not only a display of Fu'an's propaganda work, but also represents the image of Jianghai, and we must let Minister Chen see the changes in Fu'an, and see the highlights and characteristics of Fu'an's propaganda work. Jiang Yifan said solemnly.

"Yes, old leader, I will strictly follow your instructions and do a good job in this work. Minister Jiang, there is one more thing I would like to ask you for. Cai Shouwen said respectfully. The first batch of reports is actually a formation, and the next is the important content he wants to say.

"Oh, let's talk about it." Jiang Yifan said.

"That's the case, the county is going to set up a literary and artistic propaganda team, go deep into the rural front line to carry out literary and artistic propaganda, this work is led by the county cultural bureau, when they reported to me, I thought of the Yafan celebration, their current strength, but than the county's cultural center is stronger, I prepare this literary and artistic propaganda team, let them take the lead to do it." Cai Shouwen said with a smile.

"Well, Shouwen, this is a matter in your county, I won't interfere, you just let it go." Jiang Yifan paused and said with a smile.

"I understand, old leader, I will do a good job." Cai Shouwen said respectfully, and then put down the phone.
