And Li Nan's old subordinates in Fuen County, Shen Congfei, Xu Rong, Du Xin, Guo Song and others, also made a special trip to Tiandu to invite Li Nan to dinner.

For them, Li Nan's return to Wuyang City as deputy mayor is simply a blessing. Although Li Nan is a deputy in the city, not as the secretary of the county party committee before, but for them, this is not much different, although Li Nan does not directly manage them, but Li Nan is their old superior, and now he has risen back, if there is anything to find Li Nan in the future, Li Nan will definitely not shirk.

What's more, although Li Nan is only serving as the deputy mayor this time, he has several leaders who have a very good relationship in Wuyang City, such as Zhou Zheng, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, and even Mayor Wang Mingdi has a different relationship with Li Nan, as long as Li Nan returns to Wuyang City, then these forces can be integrated.

Everyone seemed to see that after Li Nan returned to Wuyang City, their lives would be turned upside down, and their hearts were full of excitement.

After a seven-day publicity period, on 16 September, Li Nan, accompanied by Li Yifeng, deputy director of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, went to Wuyang City together.

Li Yifeng came out of Wuyang City, and now he is already the deputy director of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee at the department level, he can be said to have watched Li Nan grow up, and now it has only been a few years, and Li Nan is already a deputy department-level cadre.

"In a few years, this kid will catch up with me." Li Yifeng sighed, "It's not very difficult for him to surpass me, it's really more human than human, and it's infuriating." ”

This time, the provincial party committee arranged for Li Nan to return to Wuyang City to serve as deputy mayor, which was rather unexpected by Li Yifeng, after all, there are so many suitable cadres in the province, those cadres at the deputy department level in the cold yamen, and those cadres at the department level who are old and senior in the provincial units, are all staring at this position with their eyes.

And Li Nan was still helping Xiao Dongdong match up before, hoping to promote Xiao Dongdong to the top. However, the leaders of the provincial party committee arranged for Li Nan to go to Wuyang City.

Although there is no problem with Li Nan's ability, there are two aspects that make Li Yifeng feel that the province will not arrange him to go down so quickly.

First, Li Nan is vigorously promoting the province's cross-regional coordinated development planning, this matter is specially discussed and arranged by the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, is a key task in the province in the near future, before Li Nan made out the Yangtze River source economic zone, Li Yifeng also understood, I think this is a very good idea, according to Li Yifeng's ideas. Li Nan is now doing well in the Provincial Development and Reform Commission, and the Provincial Party Committee should not move him so quickly.

The second is that Li Nan is less than 30 years old after all, he is still too young, and his position as a deputy inspector of the Provincial Development and Reform Commission is not very eye-catching, but if he becomes the deputy mayor, it will be very conspicuous. According to Li Yifeng's imagination, Li Nan will have to experience a period of time in the Provincial Development and Reform Commission, and wait for the matter of this cross-regional coordinated development plan to come to an end. It will be clear that he will be the deputy director of the Provincial Development and Reform Commission, and if he boils up the information, he will be able to directly enter the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee when he is further decentralized in the future. At the same time, he served as deputy mayor.

The car was speeding on the highway, Li Yifeng's thoughts drifted far away at this moment, and he soon came back to his senses and said to Li Nan, who was sitting on the side: "Time flies so fast." When you first started working, I also happened to be transferred to Wuyang City, when there was a car accident in the suburbs. I was very impressed by the scene when someone watched the excitement while you not only tried to save people, but also reprimanded those who took advantage of the opportunity to snatch things. Later, I learned that you were the first college student who was admitted to the Wuyang City Civil Service that year, and I was interested at that time, according to the normal distribution, you were going to the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee, but for various reasons, you were assigned to the Letters and Visits Bureau, I just wanted to see how you behaved in this case, and you really didn't disappoint me, even in a unit like the Letters and Visits Bureau, the work was carried out in full swing, and it was really as long as it was gold, and it would shine everywhere. ”

Only then did Li Nan have a deeper understanding of what happened at the beginning, and only then did he know why Li Yifeng was so favored by himself, it turned out that it was not just because of the two articles. But this is actually determined by a person's own character, Li Nan's character itself is more stable and enthusiastic, just like a car accident on the side of the road, others watch the excitement, others take the opportunity to pick up things, Li Nan is very unaccustomed to it. And the reason why he was valued by Li Yifeng at the beginning was that the fundamental reason was still on his body, and it was his own appearance that attracted Li Yifeng's attention.

"Over the years, Minister Li has helped me a lot, and I have always remembered it." Li Nan sighed. No matter what Li Yifeng favored him at the beginning, it was precisely because of Li Yifeng's attention to himself and his support for him that he had the qiē he has today.

On the way, it is particularly important to be able to meet noble people for future development.

It can be said that Li Nan's noble man when he was in Wuyang City was Li Yifeng, and his development in Wuyang City was inseparable from Li Yifeng's help and training.

Therefore, no matter who Li Yifeng is following now, Li Nan will treat him as a friend and a teacher, and be grateful to him.

Li Yifeng smiled slightly: "You have been able to get to this point, mainly by yourself, your work ability and work attitude are the most fundamental reason why you have been able to get to where you are today, of course, maybe I will need your help in the future." ”

Li Nandao: "Minister Li is too polite, if there is anything that can be used for me, I will definitely not say anything." ”

Li Yifeng nodded and said, "This matter is really uncertain, and I will talk about it in the future." Your return to Wuyang City this time should be said to be unexpected by many people. After all, you did a good job in the Provincial Development and Reform Commission, who knew that the Provincial Committee would suddenly transfer you back to Wuyang City. Of course, I analyzed it, the arrangement of the provincial party committee, but also indirectly expressed dissatisfaction with the work of Wuyang City, after all, the development of Wuyang City over the years, is too slow, in the province is relatively backward, this situation of the provincial party committee leaders must see in the eyes, this time to arrange you to go back, but also to add a fresh blood to Wuyang City, I hope to pass guò your momentum and enterprising, for the development of Wuyang City to add a new color, so, I build yì after you return to Wuyang City, the first thing is to let go of your hands and feet to do things, The second is to think more about how to change the backward development of Wuyang City. Of course, I also know that this is not an easy thing to do. But that's when you show what you're capable of. ”

Li Nan smiled bitterly and said: "Minister Li, I really don't have a bottom in my heart, you know, individual leaders of Wuyang City have always been very dissatisfied with me, this time the provincial party committee arranged for me to go back, but not everyone welcomed me." ”

Li Yifeng laughed and said, "You want everyone to welcome you, that's not realistic." No matter who it is, it can't be done. It's just that Lin Mufeng in Wuyang City is definitely not very welcome, it doesn't matter, he doesn't represent everyone, as long as what you do is right, then you have to stick to it, which is very important. You can't worry about that, you lose your sharpness, that's a very sad thing, you don't have a personality. Is that still yourself? ”

Li Nan's mood suddenly became relaxed, no matter what, he went back this time to serve as the deputy mayor, mainly to assist the mayor Wang Mingdi in his work. As for whether Lin Mufeng welcomes himself or not, it doesn't matter. Besides, when I used to work in the county. I'm not afraid of him, and now that he has been promoted to deputy mayor, what are you afraid of him?

It's useless to worry about it, it's important to think about how to do it.

Although Li Nan did not work in Wuyang City for a long time, he still has a wealth of experience, such as the Municipal Letters and Visits Bureau, the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee, the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee, Liping District, He'an District, Jian'en County, and Fuen County, all of which have allowed him to accumulate a lot of work experience, and at the same time he has also met a lot of people, and there are many old subordinates waiting for him in Wuyang City.

At about half past ten, Li Nan and Li Yifeng arrived in Wuyang City.

Wuyang City has already summoned the county's cadres at and above the department level to wait in the conference room.

Li Yifeng is now ranked high in the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, with great development potential, although he is a department-level cadre, but Lin Mufeng and others are still very polite to him, after all, according to Li Yifeng's current development trend, in two years, he may be the executive deputy director of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, which is a very important position.

Li Yifeng smiled and said to Lin Mufeng and others: "Secretary Li, this Comrade Li Nan, I think everyone is familiar with it, Comrade Li Nan left Wuyang City less than a year, this time the provincial party committee arranged for Comrade Li Nan to continue to come back to work, but also considering that Comrade Li Nan is familiar with the situation in Wuyang City, outstanding work ability, and strong pioneering spirit, I hope that Secretary Lin will support Comrade Li Nan's work more in the future." ”

Lin Mu Fengpi said with a smile: "Minister Li, rest assured, Comrade Li Nan we have watched him grow up, and we will definitely give full support to their work, and hope that Comrade Li Nan can make greater contributions to the development of Wuyang City." ”

He was extremely depressed in his heart, Li Nan was simply a disgusting rat, he finally sent Li Nan away, who knew that in less than a year, Li Nan would kill back to Wuyang City, although he was no longer under his direct jurisdiction, but this kid was definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he and Wang Mingdi were mixed together, maybe something would come out, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

The key is that as soon as he saw the unhurried smile on Li Nan's face, he felt a kind of irritability in his heart for no reason, and felt that Li Nan's smile was very fake.

Mayor Wang Mingdi was the happiest, originally thinking that the province would arrange someone else to serve as the deputy mayor this time, which was another uncertain factor for him. But it was Li Nan, hearing the news, Wang Mingdi was extremely happy in his heart, after all, Li Nan had a good cooperation with him before, and Li Nan was very energetic and thoughtful, and it was more in line with his own ideas. This time, Li Nan came back from the Provincial Development and Reform Commission, and he will definitely be able to bring back some new things, so with Li Nan's assistance, he will definitely be able to save much worry and effort in his work.

Li Nan also made a special call to Wang Mingdi last night, saying that he was about to return to Wuyang City to work, and asked Wang Mingdi to take care of him in the future, which was actually a gesture, which made Wang Mingdi more and more happy in his heart.

When shaking hands with Li Nan, Wang Mingdi said happily: "Comrade Li Nan, welcome you back to Wuyang City to shine. ”

He said this very sincerely, and he was happy from the bottom of his heart.

Lin Mufeng watched from the sidelines, his heart was broken, of course he could see that Wang Mingdi welcomed Li Nan's arrival. The two of them are mixed together, and it will be even more difficult for them to control the situation in the future.

After some greetings, everyone came to the conference room, where many people were already waiting.

Li Nan and others sat down on the rostrum, and then Li Yifeng, on behalf of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, read out the nomination of Li Nan by the Provincial Party Committee. Let everyone know that the province's cross-regional coordinated development planning, which has been very hot recently, was actually promoted by Li Nan.

Li Yifeng spoke highly of Li Nan, and also hoped that everyone present would support Li Nan's work.

Then Li Nan made a speech, and there was nothing new in his speech, mainly thanking and thanking the provincial party committee for its trust, followed by expressing his position and expressing his work in the future. I must focus on the main goal, under the leadership of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, do my own work, strengthen practical research, assist the mayor to do relevant work, and contribute to the development of Wuyang City.

Then Wang Mingdi delivered a speech, in which he enthusiastically gave full affirmation to Li Nan's appointment as vice mayor of Wuyang City, saying that this is the importance that the provincial party committee attaches to the work of Wuyang City, and it is a young, courageous and energetic leading comrade sent to Wuyang City.

Lin Mufeng also delivered a brief speech. A polite remark was uttered without any emotion, and then the whole meeting on the appointment of cadres ended.

In fact, under normal circumstances, the appointment of an ordinary deputy mayor like Li Nan would not be appointed by a city-wide cadre meeting. But when Li Yifeng asked the office to notify the Organization Department of the Wuyang Municipal Party Committee. The request to convene a meeting of cadres at or above the department level in the city is mainly to build momentum for Li Nan, after all, Li Nan is young, and Lin Mufeng is not very supportive of Li Nan. Therefore, he intends to expand the scale of the meeting, which is also the meaning of building momentum for Li Nan. As for the requirements of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee cannot fail to comply with them.

End of meeting. It was already noon, and everyone came to the city government guest house for dinner. Because it was noon, everyone did not drink white wine, but red wine, everyone ate and drank while chatting, the scene seemed to be happy, but what everyone thought in their hearts, there is no way to know.

For Li Nan's return to Wuyang City as deputy mayor this time, everyone has their own ideas, and some people are sincerely happy. Like Wang Mingdi and Zhou Zheng, they either have a cooperative relationship with Li Nan, or they have a good personal relationship with Li Nan.

And some people are very angry in their hearts, but they are helpless, after all, this is an arrangement in the province, and there is no way in the city. Among them are Lin Mufeng, secretary of the municipal party committee, and Huang Yongyi, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee.

Some people are slightly jealous in their hearts, thinking that Li Nan has only been working for a few years, when he first came to work in the city, he looked so young, and in a blink of an eye, Li Nan is on an equal footing with himself, I am afraid that after a while, Li Nan will become their leader, this gap is very depressing.

Seeing Li Nan sitting in the middle of everyone, with a smile on his face and a relaxed expression, some people felt very uncomfortable in their hearts, and a feeling of being old involuntarily floated in their hearts.

You must know that most of the people here have worked hard for many years, and they only climbed to the position of deputy department level when they were forty or fifty years old, but Li Nan is not yet thirty years old, and he is already a deputy department level cadre. In officialdom, age is a treasure, and the one-year gap is completely different in many cases, not to mention that Li Nan is more than ten years younger than most of the people here, which is completely a big difference, and it also indicates that Li Nan's potential in the future is extremely huge, and he will definitely go higher and further than them.

After eating, Li Yifeng did not stay for long, and drove back to Tiandu directly.

Li Nan didn't have a house in Wuyang City, so he naturally lived at home in Jian'en County, and happened to accompany his mother. Of course, in order to facilitate Li Nan, the city government also arranged a house for Li Nan in the guest house, so that Li Nan can use it at ordinary times, such as taking a break at noon and the like.

In the afternoon, the Municipal People's Congress held an executive meeting and made a decision to elect Li Nan as vice mayor of Wuyang City. At this moment, Li Nan's identity as the deputy mayor of Wuyang City is truly legitimate.

After the National People's Congress, Li Nan came to Mayor Wang Mingdi's office.

"Mayor Li is here, please take a seat." Wang Mingdi enthusiastically stood up and shook hands with Li Nan, then asked Li Nan to sit down in the reception area, handed Li Nan a cigarette and said: "This time the provincial party committee arranged for you to come to Wuyang City, I am very happy, we can finally realize our ideas together in Wuyang City." ”

His enthusiasm is from the heart, not fake. After all, Li Nan had a good cooperation with him before, and Li Nan's thinking is also very consistent with him, plus Li Nan has a strong background, so in dealing with many things, let Li Nan let go and do it, and he will definitely break into a good situation.

Li Nan said modestly: "Thank you Mayor Wang for your recognition, but I am still young and lack of qualifications, in the future work, I also ask Mayor Wang to check at any time, from my point of view, I will definitely follow the important work arrangements of the municipal government, assist you to do a good job in related work, and make your own efforts and contributions as much as possible." ”

Wang Mingdi smiled and said: "You, don't be modest with me, I understand your ability, you have worked in many departments in Wuyang City before, and you have made very good achievements, and we will work together to create better results in the future." For your division of work, I have roughly thought about it, you have served as the county magistrate and secretary of the county party committee at the grassroots level before, and it can be said that the work of each line is very familiar, of course, you have been in charge of the development planning work of the Provincial Development and Reform Commission, combined with these two aspects, I am ready to let you be in charge of the industrial economy, investment promotion, urban planning, land and resources, etc., do you see any problems? ”

Li Nan shook his head and said with a smile: "There is no problem, I will obey the organizational arrangement." ”

In fact, the division of labor among the deputy mayors of the municipal government is basically based on the different qualifications, and the importance of each municipal unit is combined, and then assigned to the deputy mayors. Of course, some comrades are also involved in having their own expertise, so there is some consideration in the division of labor.

Li Nan is the newly promoted deputy mayor, and his seniority in the city government is relatively shallow, ranking last among the deputy mayors, only before the mayor's assistants. The importance of these tasks that Wang Mingdi put him in charge of is relatively high, which is mainly due to two reasons, one is that Li Nan has indeed made good achievements in attracting investment, and secondly, he came down from the Provincial Development and Reform Commission, and planning and construction are also his expertise. As for units such as the Municipal Development and Reform Commission, because it is one of the most important units in the municipal units, it is generally in charge of the executive deputy mayor or the deputy mayor of the Standing Committee, so that the coordination of relevant departments and work can be more effective.

The two were chatting, when Xie Mingjiang, secretary general of the municipal government, came in, saw that Li Nan was also there, and said with a smile: "Mayor Li, I just asked you for instructions, do you have any requirements for the office, secretary and driver candidates, we will do our best to arrange for you?" ”

Xie Mingjiang took over after Song Jianguo was promoted to vice mayor, and as the chief steward of the municipal government, he was of course a close confidant of Mayor Wang Mingdi.

Li Nan thought for a while and said: "There are no special requirements in the office, you can help me for a while, the secretary candidate, my correspondent Guo Song in Jian'en County is good, he is now serving as a deputy in the township, see if he can be seconded, they are all used to manpower, and there is a run-in process for new people." Choose a more stable driver, preferably a reinstated soldier. ”

"Okay, I'll do what Mayor Li asks. I'll report back to Mayor Li after I've got my office in order. Xie Mingjiang said with a smile, since the leader has a request, he naturally has to do it. That Guo Song had served as Li Nan's secretary before, and now Li Nan is going to get him to the city government again, although he was seconded at the beginning, but after a little time, he can be officially transferred. Obviously, Guo Song is Li Nan's hardcore cronies, and Li Nan thought of him as soon as he came back.

Although Xie Mingjiang is nearly 20 years older than Li Nan, Li Nan is the deputy mayor, his leader, and has a good relationship with the mayor Wang Mingdi, so he can't ignore any of Li Nan's requests.

In fact, the reason why Li Nan took the initiative to mention Guo Song was because he recognized Guo Song's ability, and Guo Song had worked in the township for nearly a year and got a new exercise. The second is that Li Nan wants to pass this matter and release a signal to everyone that he will not forget about the people who follow him.
