Chapter 223: The Governor of Northern Xinjiang
Long Dan put down the phone, sat in the office and thought for a while, then he had an idea, so he called Guo Fuliang and asked him to inform the two candidates that they would come to Xijiang in the near future and that they would have an interview. As soon as Guo Fuliang heard this, he hurriedly informed Fei Haotian and immediately notified his son, asking him to put down what he was doing and come to Xijiang as soon as possible. Fei Haotian also called his son immediately after receiving Guo Fuliang's notice, asking him to take a plane to Xijiang as soon as possible, saying that there was something important. After Guo Dacheng and Fei Xiaobo listened to their father's phone call, they quickly asked their superiors for leave and flew to Western Xinjiang.
Long Dan received two people in his office, both of them knew Long Dan's name, and also knew that Long Dan was a celestial figure, and this interview determined his future prospects, so he didn't dare to slack off at all, and he was a little nervous. Long Dan saw that the two of them were as restrained as a primary school student meeting a teacher, so he said with a smile: "Xiao Guo, tip, don't be nervous, I and your father are colleagues, there is nothing to be afraid of, I asked you to come to me today, just to talk to you, hehe, drink some water first."
The two of them listened to Long Dan and said not to be nervous, but they were still very nervous. Guo Dacheng and Fei Xiaobo's respective fathers had already discussed with him to let them come to Xijiang to train for a few years, but they never had the opportunity. Therefore, in normal times, the two of them are very concerned about the construction of Western Xinjiang, and they basically know about the development of Western Xinjiang through news, television, newspapers, etc. Now that the opportunity has come, the person who decides their fate is in front of them, and it would be false to say that they are not nervous.
Long Dan saw that the two of them were drinking water slowly, and neither of them would speak first, so he said: "Xiao Guo, tip, both of you will talk about your views and understanding of Western Xinjiang first."
Guo Dacheng saw that Fei Xiaobo refused to say it first, so he said, "Uncle Long, then I'll say it first." I think of the Xijiang Special Economic Zone as follows: First of all, it is a special region, a new form that is different from other special economic zones, which determines the particularity of the Western Xinjiang in the whole country; At present, Xijiang is already the country's grain production base and heavy industry base, and the development momentum is very rapid, especially the industrial industry, which is already among the best in all provinces and municipalities directly under the central government in the country, which is beyond doubt; Therefore, the development of the western Xinjiang will be a matter of balanced development and comprehensive environmental management in the future, and if this problem is solved, then the last stagnation restricting the western Xinjiang special zone will no longer exist, and the western Xinjiang special zone will certainly become a world city in the future."
Long Dan confidently listened to Guo Dacheng's opinions, and felt that Guo Dacheng was likely to pay attention to the development of the Western Xinjiang Special Economic Zone, so what he said could be said to be impeccable. Fei Xiaobo deliberately elaborated last, he had a careful thought, that is, to see what kind of people Long Dan likes and what kind of speech he likes, so that his interpretation will be targeted.
Fei Xiaobo said: "Uncle Long, Comrade Guo Dacheng has finished speaking, then I will also tell me what I know, I think that the current Western Xinjiang is incomparable to other regions in terms of industry and agriculture, and the Xijiang Special Economic Zone is a new type of city, and the construction is very good in all aspects, especially the contradiction between environmental governance and economic development is well handled. I think that in the future, the Western Xinjiang Special Economic Zone should pay attention to the development of some humanistic characteristics, especially the construction of people's livelihood, as long as the people's livelihood is a level that the people are concerned about, then the whole of Xijiang will be a better and more suitable city for human habitation."
After Fei Xiaobo finished speaking, he looked at Long Dan with both eyes, as if he wanted to read something from the eyes that came. After listening to what Long Dan heard, he felt that what Fei Xiaobo said was more pragmatic than what Guo Dacheng said, Guo Dacheng said a broad sense on the one hand, and Fei Xiaobo said some details. Especially the things that Fei Xiaobo said about people's livelihood are exactly what makes Long Dan a headache.
Although the western Xinjiang is developing rapidly and the number of people living in it is increasing, there is a phenomenon of mixed results. The population of Western Xinjiang comes from all over the country, so it is inevitable that some undesirable phenomena from their respective localities will be brought to Western Xinjiang. For example, spitting, uncivilized speech and other phenomena are often seen on the street, which is also a problem that Long Dan has always wanted to change.
Today, Long Dan felt refreshed after listening to Fei Xiaobo's words, if Xijiang can make some efforts in people's livelihood, then the city of Xijiang will be an impeccable city. Long Dan's heart inevitably turned the balance of the district mayor candidate to Fei Xiaobo.
Of course, Long Dan couldn't say on the spot who was more suitable to be the head of the Northern Xinjiang District, so Long Dan chatted with the two of them about some other things. Long Dan observed carefully, and found that Guo Dacheng was a little empty, and the things he paid attention to were all lofty and comprehensive things, and he often had no special opinions on the details of some work. Fei Xiaobo is different, he pays great attention to the details of some things, for example, when refilling the teacup of Longdan, Fei Xiaobo also noticed that the handle of the teacup should be facing Longdan, and Guo Dacheng also refilled Longdan, so he did not pay attention to such details.
Long Dan said to the two of them quietly: "Let's stop here today, you go to the guest house to stay first, take a rest, and you will explain your thoughts again at the Standing Committee tomorrow, so that the comrades of the Standing Committee can also understand your thoughts." When the two of them saw that Long Dan had given an eviction order, they each returned to the guest house. In the guest house, of course, the two of them were not idle, and they each asked their father for instructions so that they could be explained by the Standing Committee the next day.
The next day, Long Dan told Jin Kai, secretary of the party committee of the special zone, his thoughts, he had already selected two candidates for the district head, and wanted Jin Kai to convene a standing committee to decide. Jin Kailai originally had a candidate himself, and he always wanted to hold a standing committee to discuss it and see if he could decide on the district head he elected. However, Jin Kailai did not dare to convene the Standing Committee lightly before communicating with Fei Haotian. Because there are 3 members of the Standing Committee of Old Man Wang's family, this is a lot of strength. It was only two and a half times when he said that he was home, and the one who was obedient when he was the propaganda minister was disobedient could only be counted as one and a half votes. If you hastily convene the Standing Committee, you will very likely be blind.
Jin Kailai came to Longdan to ask for the convening of the Standing Committee, but he, the secretary of the party committee, did not dare not listen. He can make trouble with the chairman of the Special Administrative Region, he can also be angry with the full-time secretary, and he can also exert pressure on other Standing Committee members, but Jin Kailai has no courage not to listen to Long Dan, the emperor of the Western Xinjiang Special Administrative Region. Jin Kailai happily agreed to Long Dan's request, and after knowing that Long Dan had already picked all the candidates for the head of the northern Xinjiang district in his heart, he put aside the candidates he had prepared, he would not offend a big man like Long Dan because of a small head of the northern Xinjiang district.
The Standing Committee was convened as scheduled, and when Jin Kailai announced the agenda, everyone understood. The position of the district head turned out to be taken by Long Dan, and the other Standing Committee members died of their hearts. When Jin Kailai called the two candidates into the conference room, Fei Xiaobo and Guo Dacheng appeared, and everyone understood better. Only then did everyone know that it was Fei Haotian and Guo Fuliang who went through the back door of Long Dan, and they had already persuaded Long Dan, the emperor. The Standing Committee members were all admired by Fei Haotian and Guo Fuliang's scheming, and at the same time, they also felt that the world in Western Xinjiang was still the world of the royal family, and to put it bluntly, it was still the world of the Long family.
However, since the Standing Committee has been convened, everyone has to speak, and although everyone knows that this is just a formality, they still have to do a serious job. Especially Jin Kailai, secretary of the party committee, can't let this Standing Committee have anything wrong and let Long Dan blame it, if Long Dan sues himself as the No. 1 chief, it will be easy to say.
Jin Kailai asked Fei Xiaobo and Guo Dacheng to expound their respective views, which is the same as on-site debate, depending on whose level of debate is higher. Jin Kailai carefully observed Long Dan's expressions when the two candidates were elaborating, and Jin Kailai found that when Fei Xiaobo elaborated, Long Dan's eyebrows moved a few times, while Guo Dacheng did not move when he elaborated. Jin Kailai understood that Long Dan finally preferred Fei Xiaobo to be the head of the northern Xinjiang region, and he knew it in his heart.
In the end, when it was time to vote by a show of hands, Jin Kailai said: "Agree with Fei Xiaobo's appointment as the head of the northern Xinjiang District." After speaking, he raised his hand. As soon as everyone saw it, Jin Kailai raised his hand, anyway, it was none of his business, so he raised his hand. Jin Kailai counted it, and raised his hands except for Hua Qingshan, who did not raise his hand. Jin Kailai said: "Of the 11 members of the Standing Committee, 9 votes are in favor and 2 are against, and more than half of them are in favor." Jin Kailai said again: "Please raise your hand if you agree with Guo Dacheng as the head of the northern Xinjiang District", Jin Kailai did not raise his hand, everyone saw that Jin Kailai did not raise his hand, most of them chose to be silent, this time Guo Fuliang raised his hand very quickly, it is very strange that Hua Qingshan raised his hand and gave Guo Fuliang a smile, which means to say: I am in favor of your son's election.
Jin Kailai counted it, and there were only 4 votes in favor of Guo Dacheng as the district head, that is, the Standing Committee members who often abstained from voting, and several of them were in favor of Fei Xiaobo as the district head and Guo Dacheng as the district head. When Guo Fuliang saw it, he was dumbfounded, and said in his heart: Is his personality so bad? Why don't the Standing Committee members support themselves? Those who raised their hands to vote in favor, Guo Fuliang was not grateful to them at all, because they were two-faced, and no one could be offended. On the other hand, Fei Xiaobo's votes were 9 votes, only he and Hua Qingshan did not raise their hands. It is obvious that he does not approve of Fei Xiaobo, because approving of him is tantamount to disapproving of his own son. However, Hua Qingshan voted for his son, and he was puzzled.
