When Liu Yan returned home, it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening, and according to Zhou Heping's prompt, Liu Yan browsed the dynamics of various websites in Zhongzhou City in recent days.

On the day that Zhou Heping went to the provincial capital to hold the people's congress, that is, the day Liu Yan and Chen Ruxue arrived in Xiangshui County, a post was posted on a website -- the Pingyuan Provincial Party Committee decided that Comrade Qiao Qingju, the current executive vice mayor of Zhongzhou City, would be the next mayor of Zhongzhou City.

Seeing this post, Liu Yan's eyes widened, and he almost fell to the ground - damn! What is it called? The wild child recognizes his father indiscriminately, scratches the dead and does not see blood!

High! It's really high! This trick of killing people without seeing blood, the high ones are simply boundless!

Liu Yan had to admire the poster's clever methods in his heart.

Whenever there is a new officialdom, the competition is very fierce, and the way to deal with competitors is often to discredit this person. In the past, it was full of anonymous letters, but now with the Internet, some people use the Internet as a platform to launch attacks on competitors, with only one purpose, that is, to make competitors stink.

This method is used too much, and it loses its effectiveness to a certain extent, and it is no wonder that everyone knows it, this kind of smearing trick must be done by competitors, as for whether it is the truth or not, then the benevolent and the wise will see the wise. In short, this approach does little to change people's inherent tendencies.

And this trick is to hold the competitors high, and who will see it when they hold it up, naturally let the leaders with decision-making power above see it, and let the masses with the right to vote below see it, what impression will the leaders and the masses have on this person?

Depend on! This thing hasn't been elected yet, why are you jumping so high? This is obviously creating momentum!

When the leaders and the people have a prejudice against this person, the person who holds it gently let go - quack! This person will fall heavily to the ground, and when the time comes, you see, this scarred body that has been fallen, is full of feet stepped on by the leaders and the people.

High! This trick is just too high!

With extremely complicated feelings, Liu Yan checked the URL of this website - good guy! The URL of this website is actually in Xiangshui County, and it is even more coincidental that this post happened to be posted on the day he arrived in Xiangshui County. Liu Yan couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart, Secretary Zhou asked him to read this, was he suspecting that this post was related to him?

Thinking of this, Liu Yan couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Liu Yan further thought that the appearance of this post will definitely cause very strong public opinion, and as the source of the post, it is impossible for Xiangshui County to have no relevant public opinion. Liu Yan couldn't help but be a little puzzled, he was in Xiangshui County at the time, why didn't he even hear a little wind?

Also, after hearing these public opinions, Liu Yan should have talked to Zhou Heping, but until today, he has not mentioned this issue in front of Zhou Heping, will this make Zhou Heping feel that he is a thief?

This kind of thought just flashed in Liu Yan's mind, he felt that he had been with Zhou Heping for a while, and there should still be at least trust between the two people, no matter how serious the problem was, Zhou Heping would definitely not doubt himself.

Despite this, Liu Yan still can't forgive himself. He felt that his performance in this matter was dereliction of duty. As the secretary of the secretary of the municipal party committee, one of the contents of my work is to provide all-round information to the leaders in a timely manner, especially on such a very sensitive issue, and it is necessary to let the leaders know at the first time, so as not to let the leaders be in a passive situation in their work. But now, Zhou Heping actually knew about this matter earlier than himself.

Liu Yan continued to browse other websites with apprehension, and he found that there were many websites with posts.

What's even more bizarre is that this revelation continues, but it suddenly reverses direction.

Three days later, several more websites broke the news that the provincial party committee had decided that Huang Jianshu, the current deputy secretary of the Zhongzhou Municipal Party Committee, would be the next mayor of Zhongzhou City.

Seeing these revelations, Liu Yan couldn't sit still, and began to contact his insiders to see what public opinion there was about this matter below.

The information Liu Yan received can be said to be varied, and there are no surprises.

One theory is that this matter was all made up by Qiao Qingju from beginning to end, and he knew very well in his heart that in the PK with Huang Jianshu, except for the economy, he was at a disadvantage in all aspects, so he used public opinion to build momentum for himself.

As for the news about Huang Jianshu, it was also made up by Qiao Qingju, after he sent out these posts about himself, he suddenly became scared again, and he suffered a huge crisis of losing the trust of his superiors. There was no choice but to throw out the news of Huang Jianshu to offset the dissatisfaction and anger of his superiors.

Liu Yan felt that this statement was ridiculous. Qiao Qingju has been honing in officialdom for a long time, and it is impossible for him not to know the relevant organizational procedures. The determination of mayoral candidates is the responsibility and authority of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, and further, it is a collective decision of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee. Now that the candidates have not even been finalized, Qiao Qingju has come to such a sudden, is it to put pressure on the provincial leaders or to block them? Whether it's adding blockage or exerting pressure, what good is it for Qiao Qingju himself?

Another theory is that this matter was made up by Huang Jianshu, and his methods are relatively much more clever, he first sent out posts about Qiao Qingju to arouse public opinion about Qiao Qingju's siege and the leadership's dissatisfaction with him, in a tart sound, Huang Jianshu threw himself out, in this way, not only can get the sympathy and support of public opinion, but also can make people more impressed. This method is beneficial to him and harmless.

For people's statement, Liu Yan's intuitive feeling is that it is relatively a little more credible than the first statement, but it is still unreliable. Whether it is to throw Qiao Qingju first, or to throw himself first, there is always Huang Jianshu's own shadow in this matter, and only with his shadow exists, it is impossible for the superior leaders to have no opinion on him, and these views are also negative, and will even make the leader's impression of him worse.

Liu Yan thinks the most credible is the third statement.

This statement believes that these revelations were neither made up by Qiao Qingju, nor have anything to do with Huang Jianshu. It was a deliberate act by another person. The purpose of this man's doing this is to exclude the two most competitive mayoral candidates in Zhongzhou City at present, and he can replace them himself.

Although those who hold this view did not say who the person who tried to replace him was, Liu Yan was like a mirror in his heart, this person was the former mayor Ma Zijie. Ma Zijie's current situation in the province is not embarrassing, and he is likely to have plans to return to the pot.

The source also revealed a message to Liu Yan, not long after the posts about Qiao Qingju and Huang Jianshu were sent out on the website, Ma Zijie had already begun to make trouble in the province.

As soon as he went to work the next day, Zhou Heping called Liu Yan to his office.

Zhou Heping took a newspaper and said to Liu Yan while reading it: "You have already seen the news on the Internet, right?" ”

Liu Yan nodded.

Zhou Heping said: "Regarding this issue, I communicated with Minister Songyan of the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee on the phone last night, and Minister Songyan's opinion is that posts can be deleted and banned through the network management department. What are your thoughts on this? ”

Liu Yan said: "The matter has come out, and now I want to delete the post, I don't think it's very useful." The purpose of deleting posts is to make the matter disappear from people's sights and memories as soon as possible, so as to minimize the negative impact of these posts. The impact of something like this in people's minds is like a thorn stuck in a finger, and it may be difficult to pull it out. If you insist on pulling it out forcefully, it will only cause more trauma. Another factor is that the city people's congress will be held in less than four months, and during this time, public opinion about the mayoral candidate will be the main topic of the whole society, and as long as this topic is mentioned, people will naturally think about it, regardless of whether these posts are still on the Internet or not. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Yan glanced at Zhou Heping deliberately, and Zhou Heping waved his hand at him, motioning for him to continue.

Liu Yan continued: "Another impact of this incident is the provincial party committee's perception of Vice Mayor Qiao Qingju and Deputy Secretary Huang Jianshu. Whether these posts are deleted or not, it is impossible to change the attitude of the provincial party committee towards them. If the provincial party committee does not think that the two of them are responsible for this matter, deleting these posts will make the leaders suspect that they are trying to cover up. ”

Zhou Heping nodded, and asked again: "Regarding the source of these posts, what is the public opinion below?" ”

Liu Yan did not directly answer Zhou Heping's question, but said: "I have heard some public opinion about this, and I think that no matter who did this, it will not be beneficial to Vice Mayor Qiao Qingju and Deputy Secretary Huang Jianshu." The biggest beneficiary of this incident may be the former mayor Ma Zijie. ”

Zhou Heping: "Oh! "Yes.

has been following Zhou Heping for a while, and Liu Yan found that Zhou Heping has a characteristic, in some things that are inconvenient to express his views, Zhou Heping often uses this simple "oh" word to express his attitude and state of mind. And when the word "oh" pops out of Zhou Heping's mouth, it often brings out a lot of meaning.

After a long time, Zhou Heping didn't speak, although his eyes stayed on the newspaper, Liu Yan could see that his mind was not on it at all.

Just when Liu Yan was hesitating whether to leave, Zhou Heping spoke again: "Liu Yan, in your opinion, how can you eliminate the adverse effects of this matter?" In other words, what can be done to make the mayor of Qingju or Secretary Jianshu regain the trust of the leaders of the provincial party committee. ”

Liu Yan understood what Zhou Heping meant, it really didn't work, he would rather partner with Huang Jianshu than let Ma Zijie return to Zhongzhou City.

Liu Yan asked: "How much impact does this matter have on the leaders of the provincial party committee on Vice Mayor Qiao Qingju and Deputy Secretary Huang Jianshu?" ”

Zhou Heping frowned and said, "It's not easy to assess it now. After all, these revelations involved the mayor of Qingju and Secretary Jianshu, and it is impossible for the leaders of the provincial party committee to have no opinion on them. Even me, the leaders of the provincial party committee, may feel that they should bear some responsibility in this matter. However, the occurrence of this incident is not something that those of us can control in advance, and the leaders of the provincial party committee will not consider this factor carefully. As long as it is not a person who is deliberately trying to use this matter to achieve his own goals, the provincial party committee should not be too careful. ”
