Speaking of the airborne mayor, he is still Duan Zetao's old acquaintance, that is, Duan Zetao's old classmate Liu Wenming when he was at the Central Party School, when he was at the Central Party School, Duan Zetao also lived in the same dormitory with Liu Wenming, but Liu Wenming had relatives in the capital, and he didn't live in the dormitory for many days, especially when Duan Zetao was included in the list of cadres who aided Tibet, Liu Wenming deliberately distanced himself from Duan Zetao, so the two could only be regarded as general friends.

Originally, Duan Zetao recommended Xie Jianxing to the organization to take over as the mayor of Xingzhou City, Xie Changlu naturally hoped that his son could go further, Xingzhou City has developed rapidly for more than a year, and there has been news that the central government is ready to approve Xingzhou City to be upgraded to a sub-provincial city, so that the mayor of Xingzhou City will naturally be highly allocated to the deputy provincial level, if Duan Zetao is promoted, Xie Jianxing will be able to successfully take over as the secretary of the municipal party committee and become a member of the Standing Committee of the provincial party committee, so he is also more concerned about this matter, and specially asked Shi Liang, secretary of the provincial party committee, to communicate.

Shi Liang, secretary of the provincial party committee, has basically agreed to Duan Zetao's proposal, but he didn't expect to kill halfway to bite the gold, but in the end, it was Liu Wenming who succeeded in taking the position, it is said that a certain leader of the central government specially greeted him, which can also be seen that Liu Wenming's background is not simple.

Liu Wenming became the mayor of Xingzhou as he wished, and he was naturally high-spirited, but he felt a little uncomfortable about succumbing to Duan Zetao, when he was in the Central Party School, Duan Zetao was only the secretary of the municipal party committee of Xinghua City, a county-level city, and Liu Wenming was already the executive deputy mayor of Donghua City, a prefecture-level city, and he thought that he wanted to press Duan Zetao, but now Duan Zetao is already a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, secretary of the Xingzhou Municipal Party Committee, and has become Liu Wenming's top boss, which makes Liu Wenming feel a little unbalanced.

Duan Zetao certainly felt a little regretful that Xie Jianxing could not be the mayor of Xingzhou City, but he was still acceptable to Liu Wenming's succession, after all, it was a classmate of the Central Party School who should be able to communicate well, and expressed a warm welcome to Liu Wenming's arrival.

Although Sun Changnian didn't like him, Duan Zetao still shook hands with him politely, and said with a smile: "Minister Sun, thank you for sending fresh blood to Xingzhou again!" ......", Sun Changnian snorted from his nose, and let Duan Zetao touch it, without giving him a good face, Liu Wenming's eyes behind him lit up, it seems that Minister Sun doesn't have a lot of cold to Duan Zetao! Maybe it's an opportunity for me.

Duan Zetao didn't care, turned his head and held Liu Wenming's hand warmly, and said with a smile: "Comrade Wenming, you are welcome to come to Xingzhou to serve, I haven't seen you for many years since I bid farewell to the Central Party School, and after you come, the burden on my shoulders will be much lighter......."

Liu Wenming also responded with a smile on his face: "Old classmate, when I was in the Central Party School, I knew that you were by no means a thing in the pool, and you were the first of our batch of students to enter the sub-provincial level, I am beyond my reach!" In the future, I will have to work under you, old classmate, you need to take care of it, oh......."

Sun Changnian couldn't imagine that Liu Wenming was actually a classmate of Duan Zetao's Central Party School, so he coughed and said with some displeasure: "Let's go to the meeting first, and when the meeting is over, you will have more time to talk about the old feelings ......of your classmates."

Liu Wenming hurriedly let go of Duan Zetao's hand, and said with some embarrassment: "Yes, let's have a meeting first, and ...... meeting first."

Sun perennially procedurally read out the organization's decision on Liu Wenming's appointment at the meeting, made a few clichés, and left without even eating after the meeting. According to the rules, when the new mayor takes office, he must hold a welcome banquet, but when Liu Wenming followed Duan Zetao into the canteen of the municipal party committee, he was dumbfounded, only to see Duan Zetao's secretary Fang Dongmin came over with two stainless steel plates that had been prepared, and handed one to Duan Zetao and him.

The dishes in the two stainless steel plates are very simple, three small recesses contain a fried meat with chili, a kung pao chicken and a shredded potato, and then a small stainless steel bowl with a little tomato and egg soup, and the staff of the municipal party committee organs also sat on the dining chairs in the canteen and ate the same meal, as if they had long been accustomed to the secretary of the municipal party committee dining with them.

Duan Zetao saw Liu Wenming's mouth wide open and stunned, so he explained with a smile: "Civilization, we are implementing strict control of public money consumption in Xingzhou, we will have a working meal together at noon to deal with it, and I will have a private treat in the evening to catch the wind ...... for you."

Liu Wenming had already heard that Xingzhou City was carrying out a new measure to strictly investigate the 'three public consumption', and originally thought that it was just a show and a gimmick, but he didn't expect Duan Zetao to come to the real thing, and his expression was a little unnatural and smiled: "It's good to strictly control the consumption of public funds, it's good to strictly control the consumption of public funds, it's good to ......", but he was very disappreciative in his heart, and said that this Duan Zetao would put on a show, and he could save a few dollars by eating, but in the end, he didn't suffer himself.

During the meal, Duan Zetao briefly introduced the general situation of Xingzhou to Liu Wenming, and said sincerely: "Civilization, I am very happy to be able to work with you, old classmates, everything is easy to communicate, the current development of Xingzhou is still relatively good, I believe that after you come, the work of the government will go to a higher level, I will express to you, the government is in charge of the economy, for the affairs of the government, I am absolutely 100% supportive, never interfere, let's unite and cooperate, and work together to get the work of Xingzhou City!" ……”。

Liu Wenming said in his heart, you say it well, how can there be a leader who does not hold power, but I am not a vegetarian, there are people above, if you suppress me ruthlessly, I have to say goodbye to you, but he said with a smile on his face: "I have heard that Xingzhou City has developed rapidly under your leadership in recent years, and the 'Xingzhou model' has been released in the whole country, and I, the mayor, have come to enjoy the ready-made ...... You are the number one, I naturally have to listen to you, the big ship of Xingzhou still depends on you to be at the helm! ……”。

After Liu Wenming took office, he began to frequently conduct research on the major bureaus and development zones in Xingzhou City, he was in a hurry to announce the existence of his new mayor to the cadres below, and the more he investigated, the more he felt that Duan Zetao's influence on Xingzhou City was everywhere, and the following cadres always said, 'What did Secretary Duan say', 'This is what Secretary Duan instructed', especially Xie Zili, the secretary of the Party Committee of the Development Zone, did not take him as the mayor in his eyes at all, and said how Secretary Duan was, which also made him full of dissatisfaction with Duan Zetao.

At the same time, he also had to admit that Duan Zetao had indeed laid a good foundation for the economic development of Xingzhou City, so he encountered a problem, it was difficult for him to surpass Duan Zetao in terms of political performance, Xingzhou City's economic development is fast, people will only say that Duan Zetao has laid a good foundation, and if Xingzhou City's economic development declines, people will say that he, the new mayor, is incompetent.
