Chapter 257: Secret Battle at the Group Meeting
Gu Zhuowen, secretary of the party committee, sat in the center, on his left and right hand sides, respectively, sat general manager Qian Guorong and chairman Ma Zhiqiu, next to Qian Guorong sat executive vice president Guo Yuanzheng, and other deputy general managers, secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, chief engineer and other members of the party committee sat in order of ranking. Zhou Wen's position is in the penultimate place, only in front of Luo Qi, the director of the group's office.
After studying a few major tasks in the near future, Gu Zhuowen took a sip of water from his teacup, looked around with a majestic gaze, and then asked:
"Comrades, do you have any other issues that need to be studied at the meeting?"
Zhou Wen hesitated, he had already reported to Gu Zhuowen about the opening ceremony of Channel 896 today, but his attitude was not clear, he didn't say that he would participate or not participate, Song Xiaoyun asked several times, seeing that the opening ceremony was about to be held in the afternoon, Gu Zhuowen couldn't settle down Zhou Wen also felt sorry for Fang Yang.
After thinking about it, he still decided to bring it up at the meeting, after all, this is not his private matter, the cooperation between the city station and Fang Yang's Phoenix Culture Communication Company is a very beneficial thing for both parties, Zhou Wen thinks that Gu Zhuowen should attend such an event, which is also a gesture that the city station should show.
So Zhou Wen opened his mouth and said:
"Secretary Gu, the 896 channel, which we have market-oriented cooperation with Phoenix Culture Communication Company, held a launch ceremony this afternoon, in order to reflect the importance of the group to this cooperation, the main leaders of our group attended the ceremony."
As soon as Zhou Wen's voice fell, before Gu Zhuowen could speak, Executive Vice President Guo Yuanzheng said without yin or yang:
"Vice President Zhou is making a bit of a fuss! It's just a radio channel, our group has five radio channels, five TV channels, and a large number of businesses such as cable TV and digital TV. β
Zhou Wen recently added a lot of points in front of the leaders because of the market-oriented cooperation of the channel, and as the executive vice president in charge of the main business - the city TV station, Guo Yuanzheng felt a faint threat. Chairman Ma Zhiqiu will retire soon, and there is basically no suspense in this position, which is Guo Yuanzheng's bag, but Zhou Wen has become more and more active recently, and Guo Yuanzheng has a faint sense of crisis.
Therefore, Guo Yuanzheng has always been very uninterested in the cooperation project of 896 channel, and when he saw Zhou Wen put forward this motion today, he was the first to jump out and oppose it.
"Mr. Guo, you can't say that. Phoenix Culture is a private enterprise, how can contact them with the principle of administrative level equivalence? Moreover, the 896 channel is completely revitalized, and Phoenix Culture is inseparable from the help of our people in our difficult moments, I think the group leaders attending the opening ceremony is conducive to the establishment of a better interactive relationship between the two sides, and it is beneficial to future cooperation. Moreover, channel 896 was originally a radio channel under the group, but it was broadcast in cooperation with Phoenix Company, and a new revision of our industry was launched. β
Zhou Wen knew that Guo Yuanzheng had a lot of opinions about him recently, and he was originally unwilling to have a head-on conflict with Guo Yuanzheng based on his principles of doing things, but he had already promised Song Xiaoyun about this matter, so he could only argue with reason.
The corner of Guo Yuanzheng's mouth showed a sneering smile and said:
"It's a bit early to say that it's completely revitalized! Although the first installment of the contract fee has been received, how much money is this? Whether they can survive the fierce competition is still unknown! As for the help of volunteers, this is even more ridiculous! Businessmen are all profit-seeking, and if it weren't for the fact that this channel is profitable, they would rush to invest? β
Guo Yuanzheng saw that Zhou Wen was talking about the achievements of the channel's resurrection, and he was even more angry in his heart, and his tone was not much more polite, and the atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became solemn.
Zhou Wen didn't want to entangle with him on this issue, so he looked directly at Gu Zhuowen and said:
"Secretary Gu, I still insist on my opinion, the main leaders of the Party Committee of Jianyì Group attended this ceremony, this is not only a matter of posture, the revision and launch of Channel 896 itself is a major event for our group......"
After hesitating for a moment, Zhou Wen continued:
"And, I've heard...... Fang Yang, the boss of Phoenix Culture, has a good relationship with the main leaders of the municipal government......"
Zhou Wen is a bit bookish, Gu Zhuowen didn't express his position before, and Guo Yuanzheng jumped out to oppose his opinion at the party committee, and Zhou Wen reminded him vaguely in a hurry. But this was at a party meeting, and it was obviously inappropriate to say this, and it was very likely that Gu Zhuowen would misunderstand Zhou Wen's pressure on him from the city leaders.
Sure enough, as soon as Zhou Wen's voice fell, Guo Yuanzheng immediately sneered:
"Vice President Zhou, so you have received the instructions of the city leaders to cooperate with Phoenix Company? That's not right! Our media units are the mouthpieces of the party, and we are fulfilling the mission of drumming and shouting, so how can we let the unhealthy winds in society blow into the pure land of the media? β
Guo Yuanzheng's words made Zhou Wen very passive, he even hinted that Zhou Wen had reaped the benefits of this matter, and no matter how forbearant Zhou Wen was, it was impossible for Zhou Wen to be indifferent to such slander, he was so angry that he trembled all over, and he took the case and said:
"Vice President Guo, since it is a party meeting, you should be cautious when speaking, can you take out things without evidence and talk nonsense? I can use my own party spirit and principles to vouch that in the process of cooperation with Phoenix Company, I am completely based on the interests of the group, and I have not accepted any property from anyone, and no city leader has ever said hello to take care of Phoenix culture! β
Guo Yuanzheng said-for-tat:
"Vice President Zhou, don't sit down! No one said that you were corrupt and bribed, what are you doing when you are so angry? Could it be that the heart is weak? β
"You ......" Zhou Wen pointed at Guo Yuanzheng's nose and glared angrily. The party committee has reached this point, and it can be regarded as completely torn in the face.
Gu Zhuowen cleared his throat, the two of them were almost in trouble, and at this time, it was time for him, the number one, to come out and clean up the situation. However, at this moment, Zhou Wen's mobile phone suddenly rang, and the ringtone of the mobile phone in the conference room was very abrupt, and Gu Zhuowen's words that he had just prepared were forcibly held back.
Gu Zhuowen frowned and said:
"Comrade Zhou Wen, pay attention to the discipline of the venue!"
Zhou Wen just forgot to mute the tune, and he didn't expect the phone to ring at this moment, so he quickly hung up the phone, and didn't even look at the call number carefully, so he whispered:
"I'm sorry, Secretary Gu, I forgot to turn off the phone......"
Gu Zhuowen nodded, and didn't say anything about this issue, this is just a small issue, if he chases and fights with such a trivial matter, it seems that his secretary's pattern is too small. He said:
"I seriously considered this question raised by Vice President Zhou a few days ago, and I think what the two vice presidents said has some truth......
At this time, Zhou Wen's mobile phone received a text message. He was muted, but he didn't turn it off. Zhou Wen picked up the mobile phone and looked at it, his face suddenly turned pale, and he didn't care that Gu Zhuowen was speaking, so he stood up suddenly and said:
"Secretary Gu, I'm sorry, something happened at home, I'll go out and call back first!"
Gu Zhuowen's face became a little ugly, but when he saw Zhou Wen's anxious appearance, he knew that something big was probably going on at home, so it was not good to have a seizure in person, so he nodded slightly. Zhou Wen hurriedly left the conference room with his mobile phone.
"We have some comrades now, there is really no organizational discipline at all, and the mobile phone actually rings at such an important meeting of the party committee, which is a big joke!" Guo Yuanzheng said in a strange manner.
Although Gu Zhuowen was also a little unhappy in his heart, he still smiled and said:
"No one will inevitably have an emergency at home, they are all comrades in the team, let's be more tolerant!"
Guo Yuanzheng was suddenly a little embarrassed, he originally meant to please Gu Zhuowen when he spoke, but Gu Zhuowen took advantage of the topic to play, not only did Guo Yuanzheng seem to have no stomach, but also reflected his temperament. This made Guo Yuanzheng feel a little aggrieved, but what Gu Zhuowen said was reasonable, and he just didn't have a good seizure.
After a while, Zhou Wen hurriedly walked back to the conference room, and he said:
"Secretary Gu, my mother has a heart attack and is being rescued in the hospital, and I must immediately ask for leave and rush home."
Gu Zhuowen didn't expect such a big thing, so he quickly nodded and said:
"Lao Zhou, you go directly to the airport!"
Then he said to the chief of staff, Rocky:
"Director Luo, you asked the comrades in the office to book the fastest ticket to Yun'an Province for Mr. Zhou!"
"Okay! I'll do it right away! Roach stood up without saying a word and walked out.
Zhou Wen said gratefully:
"Thank you, secretary!"
He hesitated, but still asked:
"Secretary Gu, ...... about the opening ceremony that afternoon?"
Gu Zhuowen waved his hand and said:
"Lao Zhou, you can deal with things at home with peace of mind! The comrades in our team will take care of the work matters. β
Zhou Wen saw that Gu Zhuowen still didn't let go, he couldn't insist on asking for a result, and the matter at home was so urgent, he couldn't care about it for a while, so he could only explain to Fang Yang on the phone later, so he nodded and left the conference room in a hurry.
After Zhou Wen left, Guo Yuanzheng's eyes rolled a few times, and he said:
"Secretary Gu, I still think it's unnecessary for you to come forward in person, it's just a small cultural communication company! The net worth is not as much as one of our radio channels. Originally, it was most appropriate for Vice President Zhou to attend as the leader in charge, but since he was temporarily on leave, I think it would be better for me to attend their opening ceremony on behalf of the group! β
Gu Zhuowen thought about it carefully, and felt that Guo Yuanzheng's words also made some sense, so he nodded and agreed. This kind of matter that does not involve their own vital interests, since the decision has been made, other members of the party committee will naturally not stupidly come out to oppose it, so this matter has been decided.
Zhou Wen didn't even have time to pack his luggage, he got on the bus directly from the group and set off for the airport, and all his calls to Fang Yang were turned off along the way - at this time, Fang Yang was recording the opening speech in the recording room! Originally, Zhou Wen could contact Song Xiaoyun, but he thought that it would be better to explain this matter to Fang Yang in person, so as not to cause any misunderstanding.
It wasn't until the car drove onto the airport highway that Zhou Wen called Fang Yang's phone, and as soon as the phone was connected, Zhou Wen immediately said:
"Mr. Fang, I'm sorry! Originally, I was supposed to attend the opening ceremony this afternoon, but my brother just called me to say that my mother had a heart attack and is now being rescued in the hospital, so I temporarily took leave to return to my hometown in Yun'an, and the afternoon ceremony group should appoint other leaders to participate. β
Zhou Wen didn't have much confidence when he said this, after all, he was not present, and no one would definitely argue with Guo Yuanzheng on his grounds.
Fang Yang was also stunned for a while when he heard this, and hurriedly said:
"It's all trivial things on my side, Mr. Zhou doesn't have to take it to heart, take care of the affairs at home!"
