Yi Haitao nodded and said, "Lao Guo, aren't you laughing at me?" The secretary has instructions, and I have to carry them out even if I am busy. ”

Guo Hongze smiled, his smile was first pulled from the side of his ear, and then he pulled out the two braces on the side of his mouth, and then he smiled and said, "Where and where, where do I dare to give you instructions." In a few days, it will be your turn to give me instructions. ”

Yi Haitao knew that what Guo Hongze said was not what he was talking about, but it was still useful to listen to it, so he wanted to put a smoke bomb on him and said, "How dare I? In terms of ability, qualifications, and experience, you should be the guide. ”

Guo Hongze suddenly lowered his voice and said: "Hehe, don't argue, it doesn't matter who gives instructions between you and me, as long as he doesn't give instructions." You tell me? As he spoke, Guo Hongze picked up a piece of candy from the fruit bowl, weighed it in his hand, and glanced at Yi Haitao meaningfully.

"Sugar", Tang also!

Guo Hongze's words seem to be vague, but they are actually explicit.

Yi Haitao was taken aback, he couldn't figure out for a while, Guo Hongze was talking from his heart, or a gesture, he wanted to make himself happy, but one thing should be clear, that is, he sent a signal to form an alliance to deal with Tang Yifu together.

Of course, Yi Haitao is not a fool, Guo Hongze can say this kind of thing to himself, he may not say the same thing as Tang Yifu, in the face of opportunities, can he take the initiative to give up competition?

The answer is absolutely not.

The three of them have their own advantages, and the Central Plains are competing for the deer, and who is willing to take a step back before dividing the winner.

Now that Guo Hongze has made his words clear, it would be too boring for Yi Haitao to pretend to be confused, he smiled slightly and said: "Brother Guo, it's still the same sentence just now, I listen to the secretary's instructions." ”

Guo Hongze was obviously very happy when he heard it, so he smiled and said, "Ha Luha, each other." Haitao, I won't lie to you, you are in the prime of life, it is time to go up the ladder, at my age, the organization is intended to let me be in charge, I really feel a little powerless, and it is almost the same to go to the CPPCC to support the elderly. ”

Yi Haitao finally understood what he meant, Guo Hongze's strategy was to advance and retreat freely, on the one hand, he was staring at the mayor's position, and on the other hand, he also realized that the hope was not too big, and he was paving the way for the next retreat in advance.

Regarding Guo Hongze's half-truthful politeness, Yi Haitao said with a smile: "Hehe, Brother Hongze, age is not a problem now, Zhuge Kongming is fifty-four years old and led troops to fight against Cao Wei, you are only fifty-three, and you still have a lot to do." ”

Guo Hongze pinched the "sugar" in his hand and sighed: "Hey, it's a pity, a wise man has a thousand thoughts, and there must be a mistake." If Zhuge Kongming can continue to join Wu to fight against Cao, it will not be impossible to go out of Qishan without a victory. This shows how important cooperation is. ”

Yi Haitao followed Guo Hongze's words and said with a smile: "Brother Hongze is reasonable. When you say that, I feel that the current situation in Qingyuan seems to be a bit similar to the Battle of Chibi back then. ”

Guo Hongze said: "Haitao, the opportunity must not be lost, and it will not come again." You can't afford to miss a chance. This time, the provincial party committee inspection team also wants everyone to recommend two candidates for cadres at the department level, and I will recommend you when the time comes. This kind of recommendation is really useless to say that it is useless, the key is not to have the final say below, but to listen to the above. However, if the above wants to finalize the candidate on the basis of the following recommendations, the recommendation may play a crucial role. ”

Yi Haitao nodded and said, "I support Brother Hongze." ”

After speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled.

At this time, the greetings between Chu Tianshu and Lang Maocai came from outside.

Shu Yifan arrived with Lang Maocai and his party.

The two immediately got up to greet them, Guo Hongze held Lang Maocai's hand and said, "Lang has worked hard, and after a busy day, he is still refreshed." ”

Lang Maocai said: "Or are you Secretary Guo's spirit?" I'm old. ”

Guo Hongze smiled and said: "Lang, you are much younger than me, where can you say old?" Come on, let me introduce you, this is our executive vice mayor Yi Haitao. ”

Lang Maocai held Yi Haitao's hand and said, "Hello Mayor Yi!" ”

Yi Haitao said enthusiastically: "Welcome Lang to our Qingyuan inspection and guidance work. ”

"How dare you, how dare you." Lang Maocai smiled and said, "Mayor Yi has a place where Lang Maocai can be used, just give orders." ”

After a few words of introduction, the three of them humbly sat on the sofa with each other.

Lang Maocai also came with Director Cao and a staff member of the Provincial Civilization Office, and the assessment team did not let Director Cao take the lead, which shows that it is not groundless that rumors that Lang Maocai will be promoted to deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee.

In addition to Yi Haitao and Guo Hongze, Shu Yifan, deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee, and Zhao Ziming, director of the Municipal Civilization Office, also came to accompany him, plus Chu Tianshu was exactly eight people at a table. Since Lang Mao is the leader of the propaganda mouth, Shu Yifan replaced Zhao Ziming and became the main escort in the reception.

While speaking, Shu Yifan notified the waiter to serve the food.

Guo Hongze and Yi Haitao let Lang Maocai sit in the main seat.

Lang Maocai insisted on refusing, and said: "The two leaders are higher than me, you are the master, I am the guest, and I resolutely cannot sit in the main seat." ”

Guo Hongze said: "Lang is the leader from the province, and he is about to be promoted again, if you don't sit on the main seat, which of us dare to sit?" ”

Yi Haitao also said again and again: "Yes, yes, the guest is as you please, Lang, don't be polite." ”

Chu Tianshu watched them push back and forth, and secretly felt strange, this Lang Maocai claimed to be the best director of the provincial organ, and he may soon be promoted to deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee, Yi Haitao and Guo Hongze were humble for a long time, and he should be able to push the boat down the river to have a "respectful is better than obeying".

However, Lang Maocai said: "Two leaders, I'm afraid we're going to be hungry tonight." I have a proposal, do you think it will work? ”

Yi Haitao and Guo Hongze both said, okay, let's listen to Lang's arrangement.

Lang Maocai grabbed Yi Haitao and said with a smile: "Mayor Yi, you represent the government and are the host of the Eight Classics, you should sit in this position, everyone has no opinion." ”

Yi Haitao turned his head to Guo Hongze and said, "No, no, if you want to talk about today's host, it should be Brother Hongze." ”

Guo Hongze seemed to see something from Lang Maocai's attitude, and hurriedly said: "Haitao, you and I don't want to be polite, Lang has already spoken, so you can follow him." ”

Everyone laughed.

Helpless, Yi Haitao had to sit on the main seat. Lang Maocai and Guo Hongze sat on the left and right, and the others sat on both sides in order.

The meal had already been ordered according to the standard, and the waiter quickly served cold dishes, red wine and white wine, and Shu Yifan personally served it, and he had to start adding wine from Lang Maocai.

Lang Maocai insisted again, and he had to start with the cup in front of Yi Haitao.

"Lang Chu, since you let me sit in the main seat, then I must be a good host, come and come, give me a chance, I will serve the provincial leader once." As he spoke, Yi Haitao took the wine bottle from Shu Yifan's hand and personally added wine to Lang Maocai's cup.

Lang Mao hurriedly stood up, hunched over and holding the cup to show respect and gratitude.

This seems to be a polite gesture, but it reflects a rich connotation.

Everyone saw it in their eyes, and they all felt that Lang Maocai, the most bullish director, had a hint of some kind of weather vane towards Yi Haitao, that is, at least one or more senior leaders in the province were more inclined to Yi Haitao on the issue of the candidate for mayor of Qingyuan.

Guo Hongze was even more secretly glad that it was timely and necessary to make it clear to Yi Haitao today.

filled Lang Maocai's cup, and Yi Haitao added wine to Director Cao of the Provincial Civilization Office.

Director Cao also followed Lang Maocai's example and respectfully expressed his gratitude.

Yi Haitao added Guo Hongze again, but Guo Hongze didn't follow, and wanted to grab it himself.

Yi Haitao said with a smile: "Brother Hongze, you are my brother, and I should serve you once." ”

In this way, Guo Hongze will not rob it.

filled up Guo Hongze, Shu Yifan took the wine bottle and poured the wine for everyone in turn.

Yi Haitao picked up his glass and said: "Welcome to Lang and Director Cao to Qingyuan to inspect and guide the work, we will salute the leaders from the province together, cheers!" ”

Everyone raised their glasses, touched them, and drank before they began to move their chopsticks.

By the time the hot dishes were served, they had already toasted each other to the fifth glass, and they drank too much wine, and talked more, and the atmosphere on the table was much more lively.

Lang Maocai is in charge of online news, and has seen a lot of strange incidents about officials' bad luck, and he talked about the collapse of a certain official because of sky-high cigarettes, the investigation of a certain official because of the watch he wore, the fall of a certain official because of his second wife's request for child support, and the report of a local official who collectively kept a mistress......

And so on and so forth, and so on, and so on, and in a word, these officials are stupid and cute.

didn't say a thing, everyone had to find a reason to respect Lang Maocai for a drink, and as he spoke, Lang Maocai gradually became a little drunk, so the atmosphere on the table became more and more enthusiastic, and it gradually tended to be presumptuous.

Speaking of happiness, Lang Maocai took out his mobile phone and said: "A few days ago, I received a text message saying that the twelve stupid ones in officialdom: those who are silently dedicated and promoted, those who want to climb high have no relationship, those who are sick and do not check, those who often work overtime and do not feel tired, those who are under the jurisdiction of any bad things, those who can return or not return the struggles, those whose feelings are expressed by wine, those who offer meat and numbness to the head in public, those who dare to take it no matter who sends it, those who have a second wife and a baby, those who hang on the wrist of a high-end watch, and those who smoke Chinese in front of the camera. ”

"According to Zhaolang, the leading cadres are almost all fools." Guo Hongze raised his glass to Lang Maocai across Yi Haitao, and said half-jokingly: "Lang, we want to toast to you, don't you rely on wine to express your feelings." ”

"No, no, we already have a deep relationship, come, I'll respect my brother for a drink." Lang Maocai had a drink with Guo Hongze, put down the cup and said: "The eight fools in front are stupid and stupid, and the four fools in the back have to pay attention, and it is easy to make a fool of themselves." ”

Everyone laughed and said one after another that Lang was worthy of being responsible for the work of propaganda and public opinion, and his theoretical level was high, and he summed up the officialdom fools in one set.

"Actually, it's not the stupidest." Lang Maocai is another astonishing word.
