Chapter 423: Governor You, I'm also embarrassed......
wwxom Wang Tongzhi is complacent.
Yesterday, he had just informed Qingshan Province that he was going to visit them, and not long after, Director Li of the Qingshan Provincial Bureau called him in a bad way, saying that tomorrow Governor You Limin and Vice Governor Shi Jingxuan would personally go to the airport to greet Director Wang's arrival.
Wang Tong was also stunned for a moment, which was very unexpected.
I am afraid that even the top leaders of the Tobacco Bureau rarely get such a face.
Of course, Wang Tong also knew that why Qingshan Province wanted to give him a big face, it was nothing more than to "plead" with him, raise his noble hand, and let the "Qingshan King" and Hongzhou Cigarette Factory go. But Wang Tong is still very proud.
A huge jet airliner slowly landed at Hongzhou Airport.
The cabin door opened, and Wang Tong appeared at the cabin door with a protruding chest, followed by several attachés from the State Tobacco Monopoly Administration. Under the scorching sun, Shi Jingxuan led a large group of cadres from the Qingshan Provincial Tobacco Monopoly Bureau and Hongzhou Cigarette Factory to stand and wait.
Seeing this formation, no matter how good Rao is Wang Tong's mentality is, he is also a little stunned.
This etiquette is so grand, I thought that You Limin would greet you in the waiting room, but I went directly to the tarmac, although there was no red carpet, it was the highest standard. Wang Tong suddenly felt uneasy.
To tell the truth, he came to Hongzhou this time to look for trouble.
Fu Dezhen did not "go to the road", and even ignored his personal instructions, Yang Feng Yin disobeyed, Wang Tong was very dissatisfied, and made up his mind to teach him a good lesson, so that he knew that Ma Wang Ye had a few eyes.
Although Lao Li of the Qingshan Provincial Bureau reported to him yesterday that You Limin and Shi Jingxuan would greet him at the airport in person, Wang Tong had no intention of changing his mind. But now at a glance at You Limin, who was standing upright under the scorching sun, Wang Tong's "position" was a little less firm in an instant.
O Governor, member of the Central Committee, a core member of the power center of the Republic.
personally greeted him under such a poisonous sun, a bracket deputy ministerial-level cadre, if he didn't give any face, it would really offend people to death.
No matter who it is, I'm afraid that you have to weigh the consequences carefully.
Coming down the spiral ladder step by step, Wang Tong regretted it a little in his heart. I knew it was like this. Shouldn't you really come to Qingshan Province, wouldn't it be good to make a phone call and directly ask Fu Dezhen to go to the capital to listen to the training? Save yourself from being so "tormented" now.
But it has come to this point, and it is useless to regret it, and let's talk about it one step at a time.
"Director Wang, welcome!"
As soon as Wang Tong's foot touched the ground, You Limin stepped forward. Stretched out his hands and shook Wang Tong, and said enthusiastically. On the broad forehead, beads of sweat the size of beans poured out.
There was no one to give the governor an umbrella to shade the sun.
There was not a single person in the waiting team who carried an umbrella.
Yu Limin and Shi Jingxuan were so "straightforward" to the sun.
Wang Tong smiled all over his face, and said repeatedly: "Don't dare to be, Governor You, this is really not daring......"
No one gave Director Wang an umbrella.
Originally, Shi Jingxuan, Director Li and the other secretaries had prepared parasols, and they also planned to cover the leaders as soon as possible, and their eyes glanced at the front. But I saw that Director Fan was completely indifferent, and he didn't have the slightest intention of holding an umbrella for Governor You. One by one, they hesitated, not daring to open the umbrella.
The governor didn't have an umbrella to shade the sun, are you more expensive than the governor?
The sun was too poisonous, and at that moment, Yu Limin Shi Jingxuan exchanged a few words with Wang Tong, and then boarded the car.
You Limin invited Wang Tong to get into his red flag car and personally accompany him.
The car was parked in the shade all the time, and the air conditioning was running well. As soon as I got into the car, I suddenly felt cool, and the pores on my body shrank suddenly. Indescribable comfort.
"Governor You, I came this time mainly to learn about the production and sales of Hongzhou Cigarette Factory, but I didn't expect to cause such a big trouble to the province and Governor You, I'm really sorry."
Sitting side by side with You Limin in the back seat of the Hongqi car, Wang Tong pondered his sentence and said with a smile.
In any case, You Limin gave such a grand etiquette, and Wang Tong had to be polite and reasonable, otherwise he would be "too ignorant".
You Limin said with a smile: "Director Wang personally came to guide the production and sales of cigarettes in our province, which is a great support for our work, so why bother?" In the past few years, because of the influx of a large number of foreign brand cigarettes into China, it has had a great impact on our cigarette production. Hongzhou Cigarette Factory has a large number of cigarettes in the warehouse, and sales are not smooth. The recovery of the payment was also not timely, and there was a loss for a time. To be honest, our province was also very anxious during that time. Over the past year or so, the tobacco factory has deepened the reform and launched a new brand, and the situation has been greatly improved, and the production and sales of 'Qingshan Wang' have been booming, creating a lot of economic benefits......
You Limin snorted, and his tone was very sincere.
Wang Tong couldn't help but be secretly embarrassed.
You Limin directly wanted to block his mouth, and before he reached the ground, he began to "persuade".
However, Wang Tong also has Wang Tong's helplessness in this matter. As far as he is concerned, in fact, he has no aversion to the "Qingshan King", and when the report of the Qingshan Provincial Bureau and the Hongzhou Tobacco Factory was typed, Wang Tong also made instructions, which was quite encouraging. In any case, as a business, profit always comes first. The leaders of the Hongzhou Cigarette Factory are more supportive of this attempt.
However, the world is impermanent, who would have thought that all of a sudden, the overall political situation in Beijing would have such earth-shaking changes?
Of course, at that time, no one had ever linked the "Aoyama King" with the route policy, and it could even be said that they had basically never thought of it that way.
Not long ago, the old leader suddenly talked to him in person, but he criticized him very harshly, saying that he did not have the slightest political sensitivity, was not alert to the corruption of capitalism, and allowed luxury goods to enter the house, corroding the ideological will of the broad masses of cadres and masses.
To be honest, Wang Tong was really a little confused at that time.
It doesn't seem like you've made such a mistake, huh? The old leader has always admired himself and spared no effort to promote and cultivate, and Meng Keli made such a severe criticism, Wang Tong broke out in a cold sweat. It was not easy to figure out that the problem was with the "Qingshan King". The old leader is not used to this kind of high-end smoke!
No, it's not that I'm not used to it, but I hate it and denounce it as a decadent and decadent thing of the bourgeoisie.
The old leader was furious, and for Wang Tong, it was a big deal.
Without the cultivation and support of the old leaders, there would be no high position for Wang Tong today; Similarly, if there is no care from the old leaders in the future, Wang Tong will be like a boat in the strange high-level officialdom, helpless, whether he can safely reach the "other side of happiness", it is really hard to say.
And now, Wang Tong is caught in the middle.
Although he would never dare to disobey the instructions of the old leader, Yu Limin's face was not so easy to dismiss.
"Governor You, although the 'Qingshan King' is relatively popular in the market, there has always been a big controversy in terms of pricing...... Many people say that a month's salary is not enough to buy a cigarette. We are a socialist country, where everyone is equal, and there is no distinction between high and low. Only in capitalist countries are there so many hierarchical differences, there is a distinction between rich and poor. At present, our masses are not very wealthy, and the price of cigarettes is indeed a bit unsuitable for national conditions. ”
After a little silence, Wang Tong said stiffly.
You Limin smiled and said, "Director Wang, the pricing of 'Qingshan King' is actually relative. Compared with our original domestic low-grade cigarettes, the price of 'Qingshan Wang' is relatively high. But compared with many foreign brands of cigarettes, 'Qingshan Wang' can't be said to be expensive. For example, the retail price of 35 brand cigarettes in the market is between 12 and 15 yuan, and Marlboro is roughly the same price. These cigarettes from Hilton Liangyou are priced a little lower, at about ten yuan. The price of 'Qingshan King' can be said to be basically above the same grade as these foreign cigarettes...... Hehe, when these foreign brands of high-end cigarettes appeared in China, the masses also joked, saying that the foreign moon is rounder than our domestic moon. ”
Wang Tong smiled awkwardly.
This is a very ironic thing, a large number of foreign cigarettes poured into the domestic market, the price is high, no one disagrees, on the contrary, many Chinese people flock to it, to smoke high-priced foreign cigarettes for pride, showing off their status. When a domestic cigarette factory builds a high-end cigarette brand, it is immediately linked to the decadent and declining lifestyle of the bourgeoisie.
It must be said that this is a rather powerful "logic".
Inside the red flag car, there was silence.
Wang Tong was not good at refuting You Limin's words, but it was also a little difficult for him to agree with him. You Limin is not an ordinary official, Wang Tong can't just follow his tone and go his own way. As long as he nods in front of Yu Limin, it is a promise. If he repents in the blink of an eye, he is afraid that Yu Limin will not give up with him.
How can the governor of a province be perfunctory at will?
Hongqi cars are speeding down the asphalt road leading from the airport to the city.
After a while, Wang Tong said softly: "Governor You, there are indeed big differences of opinion on the issue of 'Qingshan King'. We're feeling a lot of pressure in the bureau, too......"
Governor, it's not that I don't give you face, but I also have difficulties.
Yu Limin smiled slightly.
As long as Wang Tong has such an attitude, he didn't expect to meet Wang Tong at the airport in person to solve the problem satisfactorily.
"Director Wang, regarding the pricing, production and sales of 'Qingshan Wang', our province's opinions are relatively unanimous. We also know that there are certain differences of opinion among the leaders of the bureau, which is also normal...... If you hadn't come to Hongzhou for inspection this time, I would have planned to go to the capital in person and discuss it with Director Long and other leaders of your bureau. ”
"Welcome, welcome, we warmly welcome Governor You to our bureau to guide the work."
Wang Tong's eyes lit up and he said busily.
"Haha, Director Wang is too polite, and he doesn't dare to be a guide. Since there are different opinions, then everyone should sit down and discuss whether there is a good way to overcome the differences. ”
"Yes, yes, Governor You has a point......
Wang Tong echoed and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
