The 13th People's Congress of Zhongzhou City was held as scheduled.

In the majestic march of the volunteers, the members of the presidium of the conference walked to the rostrum one by one.

Sitting on the rostrum were also members of the Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government Observation Group, among which were Hua Qisheng, Deputy Director of the Provincial People's Congress, Liang Guoce, Vice Governor, Fei Jinlin, Deputy Secretary-General of the Provincial Party Committee, and so on.

Ma Zijie, acting mayor of Zhongzhou City, made a government work report on behalf of the previous municipal government, and when discussing the government work report, the deputies had a general understanding that the government work report was obviously emotional.

In the first half of the work performance summary, most of them were to promote the so-called image projects and political performance projects during Ma Zijie's tenure as mayor of Zhongzhou City, and the work achievements of the year after his departure were only generalized.

Isn't there a saying that talking in generality is equal to not talking, and saying in generality is equal to not talking.

As for the work defects, the report devotes a lot of space to the shortcomings and loopholes in the work of the Zhongzhou Municipal Government in the past year, and some of the words even directly point to the Zhongzhou Municipal Party Committee.

The emotionality of the report made the delegates' emotions become agitated.

The final stage of the NPC session is to elect a new leadership group of the Zhongzhou municipal government.

As acting mayor, Ma Zijie was nominated as a mayoral candidate for the new government of Zhongzhou City.

The nomination of candidates is voted on by show of hands, after the announcement of the nominations by the Executive Chairman of the General Assembly. Delegates are asked to vote by show of hands.

Very rarely.

The arms raised in the meeting hall were sparsely pulled, and judging from the situation, it seemed that there were no more than half of them.

The people sitting on the rostrum looked at each other, and for the first time in the course of the meeting, there was a cold scene.

Li Siqi, a member of the presidium of the conference and the executive chairman of the conference that day, ran down from the rostrum, counted the raised arms one by one, and then ran back to the rostrum, and announced extremely reluctantly into the microphone: "If more than half of the votes in favor are passed." ”

"Wait." As soon as Li Siqi's words fell, he was stopped by Huang Jianshu, who stood up and shouted to the audience: "Don't move your raised hands, take a panoramic close-up, and the staff of the secretariat will check the ticket again." ”

After the vote checking, the secretariat staff shouted loudly to the rostrum: "The secretariat has completed the vote checking, and there are 363 deputies at this conference, and there are 151 votes in favor, less than half." ”

Ma Zijie's face was black and blue.

There was a second cold session at the meeting.

The nominated candidate did not get the final nomination, which can be said to be unprecedented at the people's congress in Zhongzhou City, everyone was a little overwhelmed, and the people sitting on the rostrum all stood up and looked at each other blankly.

Finally, Fei Jinlin, deputy secretary general of the provincial party committee, proposed that the meeting be adjourned temporarily, and the heads of delegations should gather in a small conference room.

Guan Shanyue, head of the Xiangshui County People's Congress delegation, angrily broke into the small conference room and shouted: "What democracy? Democracy is nothing more than a bunch of donkeys that can vote. ”

Hua Qisheng, deputy director of the Provincial People's Congress, said: "Don't be so excited about this comrade, it's easy for you to hurt your feelings when you talk like this, the people's representatives are elected by the people, and they represent the will of the people, can you say that the people are also donkeys?" ”

Guan Shanyue didn't dare to mention this topic again, but she still said loudly unconvinced: "There is definitely something wrong with this, and the wishes of the deputies have been swayed by some people. ”

Vice Governor Liang Guoce said: "As a people's congress deputy, you must not be emotional, as Director Hua said, the people's deputies represent the will of the people, and they must be able to truly express the voice of the people. ”

Zhou Heping said: "Yes, everyone go back and have a good exchange with the deputies, just as Deputy Director Hua and Vice Governor Liang said, what the people's deputies want to represent is the power of the people, and they must exercise this power entrusted to them by the people with a correct attitude. ”

After the heads of delegations had returned to their work, the General Assembly voted by show of hands for the second time, this time with 187 votes in favour, barely more than half.

Ma Zijie, who was officially nominated, still has a very ugly face.

This was followed by a vote on the nominations of the other candidates, each of whom approved the nomination with more than 95 percent of the votes in favor.

Ma Zijie's face became even more ugly.

The meeting moved on to the next agenda to formally elect the mayor and deputy mayor of the new municipal government. Presidents of people's courts, chief procurators of people's procuratorates, and leaders of various functional units of the government.

The results of the mayoral election have been counted, and this result is even more surprising.

In its report, the Secretariat described it as follows:

The 13th People's Congress of Zhongzhou City, with 365 official deputies, 365 deputies should have arrived, 363 deputies actually came, and the other two asked for leave.

A quorum was required for the meeting.

Mayoral candidate Ma Zijie received 91 valid votes in favor, 216 votes against, and 56 abstentions.

The election results did not exceed half of the votes, and according to the election regulations, Ma Zijie could not be elected mayor of the 13th People's Government of Zhongzhou City.

When the secretariat delivered the results to the presidium, there was an uproar in the small conference room, and Ma Zijie's vote rate was only a pitiful 25 percent, that is to say, only one of the four delegates attending the meeting was in favor of Ma Zijie being elected mayor of Zhongzhou City.

Ma Zijie was completely stunned, he had been operating in Zhongzhou City for so many years, he didn't expect him to be so unpopular, a wave of anger hit the top of his head, Ma Zijie walked out of the small conference room angrily, walked to the door, turned around and coldly dropped a sentence: "Anyway, I, Ma Zijie, was sent by the province to be the mayor, you look at it." ”

How do you look at it? Who can watch it?

The leaders from the province and Zhou Heping all smiled helplessly, according to the election law, candidates must get more than half of the votes to be elected, Ma Zijie's vote rate is only half of the half, who can let him be elected? Who would dare to let him be elected?

But then again, Ma Zijie was indeed sent by the province to participate in the mayoral election, and it can be said that he is the mayoral candidate preferred by the provincial leaders.

The most difficult thing is whether and how to announce this result at the National People's Congress.

If it is announced, it will be difficult to recover, and what should be done next, whether to re-elect a mayor, and whether this candidate should say hello to the province first.

What a headache! Nothing is worry-free.

In the end, Fei Jinlin came up with an idea, first find a proper reason, suppress the final results of the election first, and wait until everything is smooth before continuing the meeting.

The sudden announcement of the adjournment of the people's congress in the middle of the meeting is groundbreaking in the history of Zhongzhou City, and I am afraid that it is rare in the entire Pingyuan Province.

Li Siqi, executive chairman of the conference, walked to the rostrum and announced solemnly: "Delegates, on behalf of the Organizing Committee of the Congress, I would like to announce to you a very heavy news, in the process of counting the votes just now, all the votes cast by the delegates were swallowed up by the electronic counter, and the normal counting work could not be carried out. ”

No matter how leaky the reasons given by Li Siqi are, in fact, everyone tacitly knows that there is something wrong with the election results.

In the evening, Guan Shanyue came to Ma Zijie's house.

Ma Zijie was sitting in the living room smoking a cigarette, the living room was smoky, and when he saw Guan Shanyue, Ma Zijie said angrily: "I haven't seen enough jokes at the National People's Congress, so I went home to see the jokes." ”

Guan Shanyue scolded in her heart: The dog bites Lu Dongbin, I don't know the hearts of good people, if Lao Tzu sees your *** jokes, he won't come to the house, and he will go directly to the hotel to drink a lot of wine to celebrate.

You Ma Zijie will pay attention to speaking in front of Lao Tzu in the future, you look at what your popularity has become, even a candidate voter is not willing to raise his hand, do you know what people are doing without raising their hands? It's slapping your *** face.

Although Guan Shanyue was scolding in his heart, his expression was extremely respectful, in front of Ma Zijie, he never dared to cough his donkey temper, although Ma Zijie was a little depressed for the time being, but the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse.

Guan Shanyue knew in her heart that if she lost the big tree of Ma Zijie, she would really become a duckweed in the officialdom of Zhongzhou City.

Ma Zijie, this big tree must not fall.

Guan Shanyue saw that Ma Zijie didn't mean to let him sit down at all, so she cheekily walked to the sofa opposite Ma Zijie and sat down, took out a cigarette from the coffee table, lit it with a lighter and smoked it.

"! You don't treat yourself as an outsider at all. Although Ma Zijie said viciously, there was a smile on his face.

The most fatal flaw of people is the fear of loneliness, especially the loneliness after falling down, at this time, any intimate expression is a kind of comfort for the lonely.

Guan Shanyue said with a grin: "You are so right, I am a dog in this family, a faithful watchdog." ”

Guan Shanyue, this guy is really a dog-faced, he was laughing happily, and suddenly turned his face and scolded viciously: "Mom, that B, don't get too carried away, it's not certain who will kill the deer, I want to see my eldest brother's jokes, I want to blind your dog's eyes." ”

Ma Zijie looked sad, sighed, and said sullenly: "Alas! The people's hearts are sinister and the world is cold, from the time I left the venue to the present, let alone come to see, not even a phone call to say hello. ”

Guan Shanyue walked up to Ma Zijie, sat down next to him, patted Ma Zijie on the shoulder and said: "Big brother, let's see, there are times when those snobs regret it, today is just a temporary defeat, I think this is the best opportunity to launch a counter-charge." ”
