Li Zhi didn't know that Ye Ming and Wang Hai had reconciled a long time ago, let alone that they had become old friends, and he always thought that they were still mortal enemies, and he always thought that Wang Hai would never forgive Ye Ming until he died. But unexpectedly, when he walked into the box at this moment, he saw that the two people inside were talking and laughing, the atmosphere was relaxed and happy, and there was no sign of "enemies seeing each other", he couldn't help but be surprised, opened his mouth wide and stunned at the door of the box, hesitating and not daring to step inside.

Although Wang Hai didn't like Li Zhi, he knew that there was a "hatred of taking his wife" between Ye Ming and Li Zhi, and the grudge between the two was very deep, in order to avoid embarrassment, he had to hold back his disgust for Li Zhi, beckoned and said, "Xiao Li, what are you doing there?" Come in, Secretary Ye has been waiting for you here for half an hour. ”

Wang Hai usually calls Ye Ming "Xiao Ye", but at this moment, in order to let Li Zhi understand his current identity, he deliberately changed the title of "Xiao Ye" to "Secretary Ye".

Although Li Zhi had seen Wang Hai many times before, Wang Hai had never looked at him squarely, and he ignored him every time, and sometimes even reprimanded him harshly, so he was always a little afraid of him. Unexpectedly, today he was with Ye Ming, but his attitude was relatively kind, and he took the initiative to beckon himself in, he couldn't help but be flattered, put on a smile, trotted in, bowed respectfully to Wang Hai, and said affectionately: "Uncle Wang is good." ”

Wang Hai nodded, "um", pointed at Ye Ming and said, "Aren't you looking for Secretary Ye for help?" He has already asked you Director Liu of the Environmental Protection Department and several other leaders to have dinner in the evening, why don't you thank him? ”

Li Zhi was worried about how to greet Ye Ming to avoid embarrassment, and when he heard Wang Hai's words, he turned his gaze to Ye Ming and said with a smile: "Secretary Ye, thank you!" If Director Liu can eat with us in the evening, then there is hope that the new cold steel plant will be saved. ”

Ye Ming said lightly: "That's not necessarily. Director Liu agreed to come out for dinner, which was Director Wang's face. As for whether the Xinleng Iron and Steel Plant can be saved, although he is the director of the department, he may not be the master, because such specific problems are all responsible for the people below, and he doesn't dare to express his position casually, right? So I advise you not to have too much hope for the time being, wait until you meet with Director Liu, and ask him to find the people below to understand the specific situation, if you can deal with it flexibly, then there is really hope. ”

Li Zhi nodded again and again and said: "Secretary Ye is right, Director Liu is the leader of the provincial department, so it is naturally impossible to personally take care of such a trivial matter as the pollution of the Xinleng Iron and Steel Plant, and I will report to him in detail when I have dinner later." However, as long as he is willing to help, it will be a trivial matter to keep the Xinleng Iron and Steel Plant, and it will depend on the face of Uncle Wang and Secretary Ye at that time. ”

When Wang Hai heard his last sentence, he couldn't help frowning, thinking that this kid had been in prison for a few years and came out, but he didn't have a little knowledge, and his speech was still so out of tune, what "when the time comes, it will depend on the face of Uncle Wang and Secretary Ye", isn't this a face-to-face general? So he taught him with a straight face: "Xiao Li, I am now an idler in the National People's Congress, and Secretary Ye is just a county party secretary, if you want to rely on our face to keep the new cold steel plant, I am afraid that it is not very reliable, the key is that your factory must have specific rectification measures, and it is necessary to spend a lot of money and efforts to carry out environmental protection transformation, which is the fundamental way out to keep the factory." ”

Li Zhi saw that Wang Hai's face was full of displeasure, and after thinking about it carefully, he realized that he had said the wrong sentence in the end, a bit of a "general", his face flushed, and he quickly explained: "Uncle Wang, I'm sorry, I often don't talk with my brain, and I have been scolded by my father many times for this. If I said something wrong just now, please forgive me with Secretary Ye! ”

Then, he asked Ye Ming again: "Secretary Ye, where do you think it's better to eat tonight?" I'm not very familiar with the provincial capital, and I don't know where the food tastes good, please recommend it! ”

Ye Ming knew that what he meant by his words was that he would pay for it tonight, so he waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about you tonight, I also asked a few other leaders to have dinner together, you just come with us." Next time, if the leaders go to Xinleng to inspect, you can treat you again! ”

Because the efficiency of Xinleng Iron and Steel Plant is not good, and the liquidity is very tight, Li Zhi did not bring much money to find Chen Yi in Beijing this time, and the balance in the bank card is not much, and he doesn't know how much it will cost to treat him tonight, so he is a little uneasy in his heart, for fear that he will make a fool of himself on the spot if he brings less money. ”

Originally, he wanted to ask the other leaders who they were, but after thinking about it, unless those people were Ye Ming's colleagues when he worked in the Provincial Party Committee Office, or Wang Hai and Liu Qingqiu's subordinates, there was no need to find out so clearly, so he couldn't help but didn't get to the bottom of it.

Next, Ye Ming and Wang Hai discussed and decided to treat guests to a shop called "Shangpinlou Restaurant" on Xingsha Middle Road between the Provincial Party Committee and the Environmental Protection Department......

At six o'clock, Liu Qingqiu entered the box first. This is a middle-aged man who looks very capable, as soon as he enters the door, he greets Wang Hai with a smile on his face, and asks the old leader about his current physical condition, and complains that the old leader is now alienated from him, and he has not been to the Environmental Protection Department to inspect and guide the work in the past few years, which makes him feel very uneasy, and so on.

Although Wang Hai knew that he was saying some scenes and beautiful words, because he hadn't heard similar words for a long time, he still felt very comfortable and ironed in his heart, so he also chatted with him with a smile, and then pointed to Ye Ming and said: "Xiao Liu, this is Comrade Ye Ming, Secretary of the Beishan County Party Committee, is a very capable and promising young talent, today I will introduce you to know, what environmental protection problems in their county need to be coordinated and dealt with in the future, I hope you will take care of it." ”

Liu Qingqiu just looked at Ye Ming, and he didn't hear Ye Ming's name clearly, he only knew that he was the secretary of the Beishan County Party Committee, and he heard Wang Hai say that he wanted to take care of the environmental protection issues in Beishan County, so he knew that Wang Hai called him over for dinner tonight to intercede on the environmental protection issues in Beishan County, and the smile on his face suddenly became much more indifferent.

After carefully looking at Ye Ming for a moment, Liu Qingqiu casually stretched out his palm to shake it with him, then quickly withdrew his palm, turned his head to look at Wang Hai, and said with a smile in a very official tone: "Old leader, you are the most aware of the current environmental protection situation, the policies above are getting stricter and stricter, and the requirements and standards for corporate environmental protection are getting higher and higher, and the environmental protection problems in some places have even become the indicator of the government's performance appraisal 'one vote veto'." At present, we have not arranged for the inspection team to go to Min'an City to conduct an overt and covert visit, but it is estimated that there will be action soon. At that time, if there is any problem in environmental protection in Beishan County, the comrades in the county can discuss and communicate with me, and I will take care of those who can take care of it. However, if it involves issues of principle, such as some enterprises that are seriously polluted and must be shut down, please also ask them to understand, support and cooperate with our work, and do not give us problems. ”
