It can be said that gift-giving has become a kind of officialdom culture, an officialdom art, when and where to give, what to give, in order to win the favor of the leader, are exquisite, especially for people like Zhou Jie who are not good at studying, gift-giving is definitely a difficult technical job, every time he goes to give gifts to Shangguan, he will feel red-faced, as if he is going to do a very embarrassing thing.

Zhou Jie once made a joke about gift-giving, once he went to give a gift to a leader, because he was too nervous, he didn't put down the gift, and when he went out, he actually brought the gift back, so as long as he mentioned gift-giving, Zhou Jie instinctively resisted a little in his heart, turned his head and said with a bitter face: "Uncle, Minister Duan and I have never been in life, and it's not good to give gifts to him when I go to see him for the first time, and I don't know what Minister Duan's preferences are, it's definitely not appropriate to give money, what should I give him?!" ……”。

Zhou Jie's uncle pointed at Zhou Jie and scolded angrily: "Why can't you be old with an elm head, it's not strange to have many people, it's one thing for people to accept it or not, and it's another thing for you to have this heart!" …… But what to send is really a problem, I heard that this Minister Duan is a person with a big background, and he is afraid that he will not be able to look down on ordinary things ...... sending ordinary things."

patted his head and thought about it, and finally Zhou Jie's uncle gritted his teeth, turned around and opened a hidden safe in the study, carefully took out a somewhat yellowed philatelic album from it, and stroked it a few times with his trembling hand reluctantly, and finally handed it to Zhou Jie resolutely, "You take this, this is my lifelong collection of philately, there are a few that can be regarded as rare treasures, and I can barely get it!" ……”。

Zhou Jie's uncle is incorruptible, the only hobby is to collect stamps, most of his life savings are also spent on philately, when he was a child, Zhou Jie once quietly peeked at this stamp album, and was beaten by his uncle, in this stamp album there are the earliest stamps issued in China - the Qing Dynasty dragon stamps, as well as the famous "motherland is red", the value of the entire stamp album should be more than one million yuan.

So Zhou Jie was taken aback when he saw his uncle take out this stamp album, and waved his hand again and again and said hurriedly: "Uncle, how can this be done?!" This is the work of your old man's life! No, I can't! ……”。

Zhou Jie's uncle sighed and said: "I collect stamps, but a kind of spiritual sustenance, these are foreign things, only make the best use of things, in order to give full play to their value, I am already old, half of my body into the loess, what is the use of these?!" You just have to take it, work hard in the future, and become a provincial and ministerial-level member in the future, even if you don't live up to my hard work......."

Zhou Jie only felt a warm current surging in his heart, the root of his nose was slightly sour, and solemnly took the stamp album from his uncle's hand, and said in a choked voice: "Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely not live up to your expectations!" ……”。

In the past few days, the cadres who came to Duan Zetao to report to work were like carp crossing the river, and there was a long queue outside his office, Duan Zetao was also annoyed, and ordered Fang Dongming to block the drive, so as soon as Zhou Jie came to the door of the organization minister's office, as soon as he saw this long queue waiting to be received, his already very kicking heart became even more nervous, he was thin after all, and it was really embarrassing for him to bow down to Short Zetao, who was about the same age as him, and he was ready to turn around and leave after thinking about it.

At this moment, Fang Dongmin happened to look up and saw him, Fang Dongmin had followed Duan Zetao for many years, and naturally understood Duan Zetao's thoughts very well, so he hurriedly stopped Zhou Jie, "Mayor Zhou, why did you come and go, Minister Duan is likely to see you, you wait a minute, I will go in and ask for instructions, and see if Minister Duan is free to see you now......."

As soon as Duan Zetao heard that Zhou Jie was coming, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Oh, this Zhou Jie is also in a hurry to slap me?" He doesn't look like a flatterer, can't I look away, okay, you call him in......", Duan Zetao is still more confident in his own vision of people, so he will push Zhou Jie to the position, and Zhou Jie is an important part of his layout of East Lake and breaking the alliance of An Xuri and others, even if Zhou Jie does not come to him at this time, he will find an opportunity to summon Zhou Jie to teach him face-to-face.

When Zhou Jie came in, Duan Zetao was flipping through the documents with his head down, and when he saw Zhou Jie coming in, he didn't raise his eyelids, pointed to the sofa on the side and said expressionlessly: "Comrade Zhou Jie is here, you can sit down first, and I will talk to you after reading these documents......."

It's funny, when Duan Zetao was mayor in the past, he went to see Shi Liang, secretary of the Jiangnan Provincial Party Committee, Shi Liang often used this trick to deal with Duan Zetao, it seems that in the officialdom, when the officials want to consider their subordinates, they like to use this trick, under this deliberately created unfathomable atmosphere and coercion, the subordinates are often cramped and uneasy, exposing their shortcomings, and they can't help but have a sense of awe for the officials.

Although Duan Zetao is not very old, he has been in the top position for a long time, and the coercion exuded by being serious is not weaker than that of Zheng Duanfeng, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, and sure enough, Zhou Jie was also very uncomfortable at first, and carefully sat on the sofa for half an ass, looking very cramped and uneasy, but soon he calmed down, sat up straight, put his hands flat on his knees, and looked calmly ahead, waiting for Duan Zetao to ask.

Over the years, Duan Zetao has also had some experience in the art of people, if a subordinate faces his superiors, his eyes wander, swaying left and right, it means that he is not confident enough, not a material that can be made, at this time I saw Zhou Jie's performance, I couldn't help nodding secretly in my heart, maybe this Zhou Jie is still a little immature in politics, but his mind is quite open-minded, from the side of understanding, Zhou Jie is also at the grassroots level step by step, and the political performance evaluation over the years is good, there should still be some talents, but to play head-on with the old and cunning An Xuri, I'm just afraid that I have to give birth to a little better.

Thinking of this, Duan Zetao raised his head and said with a smile: "Comrade Zhou Jie, you have already heard the news that you are going to be the acting mayor of Donghu City, right?!" Originally, according to the procedure, I will wait for the official documents to come down, I will officially talk to you on behalf of the organization, since you are here today, let's talk in advance, do you have any thoughts and ideas for the next step of the work of Donghu City? ……”。

Zhou Jie prepared a stomach of words of thanks before he could say it, but he didn't expect Duan Zetao to go straight to the point and ask him to talk about his next work ideas, but he was asking Zhou Jie's job bowl, he was familiar with the situation in Donghu City, and he had done a lot of homework on weekdays......
