On March 9, the first conference room of Siyuan County Government.

Since half past eight in the morning, people have been walking in one after another, or sitting in the seats under the stage, or chatting with other people. The people who came first, without exception, were all smiling and laughing, and they were obviously in a very happy mood.

When Li Xiaohe came in, the time was more than 8:40, he came with Zhao Qiang, and Qin Mingsheng, Zhang Quan and others also came. When they entered, there were already nearly 200 people sitting in the audience, all of whom were the directors and deputies of the science and technology bureaus of the county party committees, as well as the township secretaries, township and town mayors, and their deputies.

As soon as he entered the conference room, Li Xiaohe noticed that there were many eyes shooting, most of which had a different meaning, and he felt very uncomfortable. Among these glances, two of them also added the word "more", which was particularly vicious.

"Township Chief Li, here." The two vicious "eyes" spoke, "I came early today to find our location." ”

"Got it, Township Chief Jia, I'll go over in a while." Although 10,000 didn't want to deal with each other, but in front of everyone's eyes, they really couldn't lose their demeanor, so Li Xiaohe had to respond like this.

There are more eyes on the body, and it also brings out more meaning. Li Xiaohe understood that this was all "shouted" by the unlucky girls just now. You can figure it out with your toes, and she must have done it on purpose. Although it was extremely uncomfortable to be scrutinized by hundreds of eyes, Li Xiaohe could only bear it, there was no way, he was here to be blinded today, but he couldn't help but come.

In order to be more natural, and in order to reduce the intensity of attention, Li Xiaohe had to go to the direction where the "Shuangsheng Township" table sign was placed, and sat in the same area as the annoying woman, and Zhao Qiang and others also sat down together.

Seeing the arrival of her colleagues, Jia Xianglan, who had been waiting for a long time, was very enthusiastic, greeting her seat and talking frequently. Even when she encounters the coldness and white eyes of others, she is smiling, friendly, and very personable.

Li Xiaohe smelled the strong smell of perfume on the woman's body, and also noticed that the other party was wearing bright new clothes, and couldn't help but think: Damn, it's like waiting for a while to be called to bed.

Scolding people in his heart, Li Xiaohe glanced at the scene in the house.

The rostrum has already been set up. Behind the platform is a purple flannel background, close to the background cloth placed ten red flags, the top of the red flag is all decorated with golden flag spikes, red flags are five or five opposite, in the shape of an inverted "eight". At the front of the podium was a row of conference tables, all covered with fuchsia flannel. Teacups, pencils, and paper were already placed on the table, as well as three debugged snake-neck microphones. Immediately at the front of the table, there is a row of plants with green leaves and red flowers. The height of the plants and pots is 60 or 70 centimeters, which is only about 20 centimeters lower than the table, which not only sets off the atmosphere, but also does not obscure the leaders behind the table.

According to the direction of the entrance, there are three rows of small potted plants, the colors of the potted flowers are red, yellow, and purple, and the height of the potted plants also has a drop, reflecting the level. Above the entrance of the stage, the LED screen has been turned on, and a line of red fonts is typed on it: Siyuan County All Cadres Conference.

Turning his eyes to the audience, Li Xiaohe found that there were many eye-catching slogans hanging on the walls on both sides, and the content of the slogans was inspiring, and the colors were obviously newly arranged.

A rush of footsteps sounded, and Ge Shujun quickly ran into the conference room and sat down on the side of the Shuangsheng Township area. While wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead, he said, "It's too troublesome to do bad things at home, and I'm almost late." ”

No one answered, but people didn't believe Ge Shujun's claims. Li Xiaohe even knew it: Lao Ge is afraid that he is trying to avoid going into the city in the same car with him, right?

Suddenly, a burst of majestic and festive music sounded.

Looking at everything in front of me and listening to the live music, I suddenly felt like I was participating in the party congress. Li Xiaohe couldn't help but slander again: Isn't it just a county-wide meeting of cadres at and above the section level, as for making it like this? The villain is rich.

Two men and a woman walked briskly to the stage, the woman placed the table stick, one put the thermos cup in the middle, and the other looked at the stage and the stage.

Seeing these three people, Li Xiaohe was sick to his stomach: something, it's just a group of demons, all of them are people he hates. There is no doubt that those three people must also absolutely hate Li Xiaohe. These three people are Du Yingcai, director of the county government office, Hu Yujing, deputy director of the "fox spirit", and four-eyed Xue Yaohui, secretary of the county magistrate. Of course, the identities of the three are the director, deputy director, and secretary, and the words in front of their names are all added by Li Xiaohe.

At this time, the table signs on the stage have been placed, a total of ten, the name in the middle is Qiao Cheng, eight are the names of other Standing Committee members, and one is Dong Fengmei, executive deputy director of the Organization Department. Dong Fengmei was separated from the others by a position, obviously reflecting Qiao Cheng's central position among the members of the Standing Committee.

hurriedly glanced at the placement of objects on the table, Du Yingcai, Hu Yujing, and Xue Yaohui walked off the stage. But Du and Hu did not leave the scene, still standing in the offstage, looking at the direction of the backstage.

The music changed again.

"Applause." Du Yingcai said, and took the lead in slapping it.

Hu Yujing next to her was not far behind, applauding and looking forward to it.

"Wow", the scene burst into applause.

Accompanied by passionate and majestic music, a column of nine people walked up from the backstage in turn, and the one who walked in the front was Qiao Cheng, the acting county magistrate, and three other unfamiliar faces.

The crowd on the stage took their seats behind the rostrum table, the music stopped in time, the applause also stopped, and the scene was very quiet.

turned his head to Qiao Cheng for instructions, and after getting a nod, Cheng Cai, head of the Organization Department of the county party committee, spoke: "Everyone be quiet, now the meeting is held." Comrades, under the cordial care of the Maozhong Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government, the leadership group of Siyuan County has been readjusted. On March 6, the leaders of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee came to Siyuan County to announce the appointment decision, and the leaders at or above the deputy department level listened on the spot. Today's convening of a meeting of cadres at and above the deputy section level in the county is to specifically convey this document, and everyone should listen carefully to the content of the document and profoundly understand the organization's intentions. Comrade Dong Fengmei, executive deputy director of the Organization Department of the county party committee, was invited to read it out on his behalf. ”

The woman sitting at the southernmost end of the stage picked up a document and read it out: "Appointment and dismissal decision." After the study and decision of the ministerial meeting of the Organization Department of the Maozhong Municipal Party Committee, and the approval of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, it was decided to appoint Comrade Qiao Cheng as the deputy secretary of the Siyuan County Party Committee and the county magistrate of the government. ”

"Wow", the applause was particularly warm. Many people raised their palms and slapped them hard, and some people even had tears in their eyes, obviously very excited.

Although he had learned the news last Friday afternoon, when he heard the announcement of the decision on the spot, Li Xiaohe couldn't help but feel gloomy: Qiao Cheng took out the word "agent" and officially became a regular.

Qiao Cheng got up at the right time, smiled, and bowed to the stage and thanked him.

After Qiao Cheng sat down, the applause had stopped, and Dong Fengmei continued to read out: "Comrade Pan Min is removed from the post of deputy secretary of the Siyuan County Party Committee, and he will no longer temporarily preside over the work of the county party committee, and he will be appointed separately." Comrade Lu Jiufeng was appointed as a member of the Standing Committee of the Siyuan County Party Committee and executive deputy county magistrate, and Comrade Qian Jiahao was appointed as a member of the Standing Committee of the Siyuan County Party Committee and director of the office. ”

The new-faced man with short hair and combed back stood up and bowed, and everyone applauded in welcome.

After Dong Fengmei put down the documents, Cheng Cai, the host of the meeting, introduced the resumes of Qiao Cheng, Lu Jiufeng and Qian Jiahao. This kind of introduction is often stylized and has a fixed format, year, month, unit and position. After introducing the resume, Cheng Cai evaluated Qiao, Lu, and Qian on behalf of the organization, and the evaluations were all praises, especially Qiao Chengna, who was deliberately promoted, and many achievements in the county were smeared on Qiao Cheng's face.

As for how Cheng Cai spoke highly of Qiao Cheng, everyone didn't pay special attention. However, he noticed a situation, that is, Qiao Cheng was promoted to the county magistrate, and the director of the office of the county party committee, who had been vacant for a long time, had also arrived, while the secretary of the county party committee and the full-time deputy secretary were still vacant. This inevitably makes people wonder: why are the chief and deputy secretaries of the county party committee not in place, is there no suitable candidate or has not reached a consensus on the allocation of seats among all parties?

The chief and deputy secretaries are not in place, and they are also in Li Xiaohe's attention, but his focus is not on where the candidates are or who will serve them. On the contrary, a practical problem has emerged: a period of excessive concentration of power has been formed at the top of the county party committee, and among the members of the party and the government, Qiao Cheng is the only one who is in charge and temporarily holds the party and government power.

After evaluating Qiao and Qian, Cheng Cai said loudly: "Comrade Qiao Cheng, deputy secretary of the county party committee and county magistrate, is invited to speak." ”

There was another round of applause, and then Qiao Cheng cleared his throat and said: "Comrades, the higher-level organization appointed me as the deputy secretary of the Siyuan County Party Committee and the county magistrate of the government. Siyuan County ......"

On the stage, Qiao Cheng talked endlessly about the policy program, and everyone at the scene reacted differently. No matter whether others pay attention to listen or not, and what they feel in their hearts, Li Xiaohe listens very seriously. Of course, he was not slightly interested in Qiao Chengshi's policies, but he was afraid of missing the key parts and the content related to him. It is said that he has just been appointed as the county magistrate, and he should not talk about some things, but Li Xiaohe knows that Qiao Cheng is a person who will repay him, so how can he let go of the opportunity of the temporary boss of the county? As soon as the city party committee announced his appointment last Friday afternoon, he was anxious to convene a county-wide cadre meeting just after going to work this week, which shows the importance he attaches to this post and his eagerness to control power.

Although Li Xiaohe listened very carefully, and Qiao Cheng's speech lasted for more than 40 minutes, he talked about the government's actions and did not insinuate himself. He couldn't help but wonder, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief: it seemed that he had underestimated the other party.

As he was speaking, Qiao Cheng's tone changed: "As an old party member and cadre, I have always insisted on being honest and honest in politics, and I also require comrades to be innocent and upright." Honesty and honesty are the requirements of the party and government at all levels for all civil servants, and there are clear records in the regulations on party members. In order to be honest and honest, it is necessary to put an end to corruption and bribery and other heinous criminal circumstances, and it is also necessary to prohibit such phenomena as eating and taking cards. For big corruption, most people can recognize the bit, and they don't dare to jump over the thunder pool. However, some people regard it as a deaf ear and ignore it at all, and there are such examples around us. As the deputy secretary of the county party committee and the top leader of the government, I have the obligation to point out this phenomenon and it is even more necessary to correct the relevant mistakes. ”

Li Xiaohe's relaxed mood just now was tightened again: what should come is still here.
