"Secretary, you are knowledgeable and far-sighted, don't embarrass me, you have come full circle, how do I know that you want to talk about this?"

Li Wenrui said softly: "Self-positioning." ”

"Self-positioning?"

"Yes, self-positioning." Li Wenrui said, "The biggest dilemma in life is self-positioning, finding your own coordinates between the ideal and reality, just like the countless stars in the sky, don't you say that they are all objective existence, the objective existence of each of us is our own life coordinates, if you can find your own objective existence in reality, and be unswerving for this, then you will be invincible." ”

"I seem to get it a little bit." Xiang Tianliang thoughtfully, "To put it bluntly, you want me to determine my life goals, such as I want to enter politics, what kind of height do I want to reach." ”

"Haha, you're pretty good at connecting ideals with reality."

Xiang Tianliang asked, "Secretary, what is your self-positioning?" ”

"You want to shake my old bottom?"

"Hehe, it's okay, it's also learning."

Li Wenrui asked Xiang Tianliang for a cigarette, lit the fire and took a few puffs, and then said slowly: "I, although my family is considered a scholarly family, but because I participated in the revolution earlier, I delayed my studies, and I did not receive a good education, and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, because of my busy work, I did not have the opportunity to go back to school for further study, therefore, in reality, I am now at most a junior high school graduate, and with the continuous promotion of my later positions, I feel more and more that I am very difficult to work, and I am unable to do so. ”

"Secretary, you're too modest."

Shaking his head, Li Wenrui said: "The chairman said, people have self-knowledge, my talent is not high, but self-knowledge is still there, in the sixteen years since the reform and opening up, the central government has transferred me from Dongjiang Province seven times, the first three times to serve in other provinces, the last four times to enter Beijing, two of which are to a certain ministry to appoint, the other is to enter the central work, zuihou once also clearly stated that I entered the Politburo and the Secretariat, but I resigned, weishenme? Because my ability is limited to this, I know Dongjiang, and I may be able to make a difference here, and I can barely be qualified, but once I am transferred to another place, I am likely to lose the trust of the central government, and as for entering the central government, I am even less qualified. ”

Xiang Tianliang said with admiration, "Secretary, you are really high-spirited, unlike some people, who want to climb up with all their hearts, and they do not hesitate to take risks for this." ”

Li Wenrui smiled slightly, "I'm not as noble as you think, on my one-third of an acre, you can have different ideas and different voices, but I am absolutely merciless to those who play conspiracy." ”

"Secretary, how do you position yourself in the future?" Xiang Tianliang asked in a low voice.

"A smart man's question." Li Wenrui said with a smile, "I am sixty-two years old, and there are still three years before the next plenary session of the provincial party committee, no accident, I will also serve as the leader of Dongjiang Province for three years, and then I have two choices, one is to enter Beijing and serve as the vice chairman of the Standing Committee of the ** or vice chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and the other is to retire naked, don't want anything, and go home to live my own small life." ”

Xiang Tianliang smiled: "The latter choice does not meet the rules of the organization, but it is your self-positioning. ”

"Yes, I hope to be an ordinary person after the age of sixty-five."

As he spoke, Li Wenrui stood up, patted his ass and walked forward.

Xiang Tianliang hurried two steps and grabbed Li Wenrui's arm, "Secretary, so you have begun to prepare for your exit in three years." ”

"See?"

"Hmm."

Li Wenrui sighed, "You don't have to worry too much about the affairs of the upper echelons, unless you need to take action." ”

Xiang Tianliang hurriedly explained: "How dare I, the matter of the Provincial No. 1 Pharmaceutical Factory, my original intention was only to save Minister Gao. ”

“haha…… This thing is well done, and it is the so-called crooked and right. ”

"I just didn't bother you."

Li Wenrui asked: "Guess now, what will happen to Guan Lao and Zhang Lao?" ”

"Leave Dongjiang and return to Beijing." Xiang Tianliang said without thinking.

“weishenme？”

"Because they found that they had inadvertently interfered with the work of the locality, and as old comrades, they knew that they should avoid it."

Li Wenrui nodded and smiled: "You really know a little bit about politics, let me tell you, they have already left for Beijing, and they are on the same plane of the Air Force." ”

"Ah, they're on the same plane?"

“haha…… It's not because of you, it's because you let them get together. ”

Xiang Tianliang said: "You didn't see it, the two old men almost fought." ”

"That's just a superficial phenomenon, not a big deal." Li Wenrui said with a smile, "They are all respected revolutionaries, they have their own bottom line, and you don't need to worry about their relationship." ”

Xiang Tianliang asked, "Secretary, do you think my refusal is right or wrong?" ”

Li Wenrui said: "Xiao Xiang, you have to learn to look at the problem and not simply distinguish between right and wrong, anything is any problem, there is right and wrong, and there are right and wrong, that is to say, there are advantages and disadvantages." ”

"Please be specific and take matters into account."

"Ha, that's what I just said, it's a matter of self-positioning."

"My self-identity?"

"Yes." Li Wenrui smiled and asked, "What kind of life goal would you set for yourself?" ”

Xiang Tianliang laughed embarrassedly, "Secretary, I said, don't laugh at me." ”

"I don't laugh at you, just the two of us, you say." Li Wenrui couldn't help but laugh.

"You say...... In your eyes, can I, can I be the secretary of the municipal party committee? ”

"Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee?"

"yes."

"Is this what you're striving for?"

"What do you think...... In your opinion, is it too high? ”

“haha…… haha……”

Xiang Tianliang stomped his foot, "Secretary, did you promise not to laugh at me?" ”

"Haha......" Li Wenrui smiled, "Am I laughing at you?" Am I kidding you? ”

"Aren't you kidding me?"

Li Wenrui restrained his smile, "Let's put it this way, if your life goal is only limited to what you say, then you can achieve it without using any external force, so you are right not to kiss Guan Lao and Zhang Lao, because you are now at the deputy director level, only three levels away from your goal, with your current age, with the little cleverness in your belly, you can also stay up to the position of secretary of the municipal party committee." ”

"Can you?" Xiang Tianliang said honestly, "Secretary, you don't know that my current deputy department level is blindfolded, in fact, after my party became the deputy county magistrate, I haven't done a practical thing for the people." ”

Li Wenrui said: "Meng is also a kind of ability, in our huge system, how many people are in Meng, as far as I know, your Meng is much more noble than other people's Meng." ”

"Huh...... Do you really think that Meng can do it? Xiang Tianliang couldn't believe that the dignified secretary of the provincial party committee would say such a thing.

Li Wenrui bowed his head slightly as he walked, "As a person who has come over, as an old man, I am not against the self-struggle of young people. ”

"Just fighting for yourself?" Xiang Tianliang asked.

"Yes, with a population of more than one billion, don't you allow anyone to fight for yourself? Many people don't have the opportunity to serve the people like you and me, so they should fight for themselves. ”

Xiang Tianliang smiled and said, "I think so too, this is also the liberation of productive forces." ”

"Well, as far as you're concerned, your life goals are a little lower." Li Wenrui shook his head and said.

Xiang Tianliang said: "Secretary, I think so, life goals can be constantly revised, what I just said is the lowest goal, on the basis of this minimum goal, I can move forward as much as I can, I will not deliberately limit myself." ”

Li Wenrui was slightly stunned, "In this way, your attitude towards Guan Lao and Zhang Lao is actually to capture the old and indulge, and not stop, right?" ”

"Sort of, sort of." Xiang Tianliang said, "Secretary, I think so, I have lived in the countryside since I was a child, if I have a relationship with predecessors like Guan Lao and Zhang Lao, I am afraid that I will not be able to cope with it, and I am even more afraid that I will lose myself." ”

"Well said." Li Wenrui nodded and said, "People are small and big, I understand your true intentions." ”

"I, what's my intention?" Xiang Tianliang asked with a smile.

"Don't say it." Li Wenrui said with a smile, "Guan Lao and Zhang Lao have a high status in the party and the army, as long as you climb one, you will benefit immensely in your life, but the Guan family and the Zhang family are a little complicated, if you break in now, I am afraid you will become an undesirable person, not to mention that now it is just two old men jumping, it is your father and mother who should really come to you, but it seems to have disappeared, this is very abnormal, so you don't have to use your hot face to stick to other people's cold butts, only when they take the initiative to find you, Your presence and presence only become more meaningful. ”

"Secretary Xiexie, I think so too."

The night was deep, and the dormitory area of the provincial party committee leaders arrived.

Li Wenrui stopped at the gate of the community, "Xiao Xiang, I know what you want most about now?" ”

"Secretary, do you know what I'm thinking about most right now?" Xiang Tianliang asked in surprise.

"Guess what?" Li Wenrui smiled lightly.

"Guess."

"What if I guess right?"

"What should I do if I don't guess?" Xiang Tianliang asked naughty rhetorical questions.

Li Wenrui smiled, "That's it, promise each other one thing." ”

"Okay, please."

Li Wenrui paused slightly, "You kid, the thing I want to think about most now is how to leave Yunzhou and leave the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, and return to Qinghe City and Binhai County as soon as possible." ”

Xiang Tianliang froze, "Secretary, you, how do you know?" ”

"Am I right?"

"Yes."

"Haha......" While smiling, Li Wenrui waved his hand and walked, "Go back, we'll see you tomorrow." ”

Looking at Li Wenrui's back, Xiang Tianliang was still puzzled, how did this old man know my thoughts?
