After listening to Secretary Li's hint that Secretary Lu did not have a good impression of himself, Xia Bicheng asked Secretary Li many times what the reason was. However, Secretary Li replied: He is not very clear about the reason, let him figure it out by himself.

In fact, Secretary Li knows the reason: the main reason why Secretary Lu doesn't like Xia Bicheng is that he thinks he is too sleek, too sophisticated, and a bit of the "wall grass" smell that the wind blows on both sides.

Moreover, one of the most important reasons is that Secretary Lu found that Xia Bicheng didn't like his son Ye Ming very much, and heard that he tried his best to oppose Xia Chuchu's relationship with Ye Ming in order to get close to Wang Hai. It was this incident that made Secretary Lu have a worse impression of him, thinking that he was a typical snob.

Therefore, in the last major adjustment, Secretary Li's original intention was to let Xia Bicheng move his position and go to Linhe City to serve as the secretary of the municipal party committee. However, when Secretary Lu communicated, his proposal was vetoed by Secretary Lu. At that time, Secretary Lu didn't say anything clearly, but just said that it was necessary to observe Xia Bicheng, a comrade, for a period of time, and then say that it was better not to move him for the time being.

Secretary Li respected Secretary Lu very much, not to mention, he also had a bad impression of Xia Bicheng at that time, so he did not insist on his proposal.

It's just that he was really a little puzzled at that time, and he didn't know why Secretary Lu had a bad opinion of Xia Bicheng. It wasn't until later that he learned that Ye Ming was Secretary Lu's biological son, and he suddenly realized: Secretary Lu saw his snobbish, sleek, and poor side from Xia Bicheng's attitude towards his son, so he deliberately wanted to suppress Xia Bicheng.

Of course, Secretary Li also knew that Secretary Lu did not completely cut off Xia Bicheng's promotion path, and left him a chance - in the last major adjustment, the old director of the Provincial Department of Finance, who was sixty years old, will retire in another year. Therefore, the principal person in charge of the Finance Agency has not been adjusted. And this position can be given to Xia Bicheng after a year, or he can be promoted on the spot among the deputy directors of the Provincial Department of Finance, it depends on their respective skills......

It is precisely because the position of the director of the Department of Finance is placed there, so Xia Bicheng still has great hopes and is eager to change his impression in Secretary Lu's mind. Therefore, when he heard that Secretary Lu was going to meet him in his office, he was so excited and excited......

Therefore, after receiving Guo Zhijun's phone call, Xia Bicheng immediately instructed the provincial bureau office, together with the revenue planning and accounting office, the collection and management office, and the tax administration department, the first two and three departments, to write a brief and concise report on the completion of the province's local tax revenue this year before one o'clock at noon, and to highlight as much as possible the bright spots of the local city and state bureaus in grasping revenue. At the same time, it is also necessary to draw up a plan for catching income in May and June, as well as the incentives to be taken, and estimate the scale of income that can be achieved when the double exceeds half this year.

After making this instruction, Xia Bicheng hurried home, changed into a very solemn dark gray suit and put it on, and went to a hair salon near the provincial bureau to trim his hair and shave off the stubble on his chin, so that he looked energetic and clean.

Less than three o'clock in the afternoon, Xia Bicheng rushed to the No. 1 building of the provincial party committee, sat in the office of the deputy director of the general office of the provincial party committee for more than ten minutes, drank a few sips of tea restlessly, and called Guo Zhijun at about a quarter past three o'clock, saying that he had arrived at the provincial party committee and was ready to report.

Guo Zhijun said that Secretary Lu was meeting with a secretary of the municipal party committee, asked him to wait a few more minutes, and took him to Secretary Lu's office at half past three on time.

Xia Bicheng had no choice but to wait patiently for more than ten minutes, and then found Guo Zhijun's office and asked him to take him into Secretary Lu's office.

Secretary Lu had just finished meeting with the secretary of the municipal party committee of the city, and when he saw Xia Bicheng coming in, he got up from the chair, shook hands with Xia Bicheng across the desk, and then waved his hand to signal him to sit down on the chair opposite the desk, and instructed Guo Zhijun to make him tea.

Although Xia Bicheng and Secretary Lu met once at Secretary Li's house, and drank a few glasses of wine together, the impression at that time was completely different from the current feeling: when he was at Secretary Li's house, he felt that Secretary Lu was easy-going and kind, talking and laughing, especially when he was in Ye Ming, that state and that expression, like a kind and kind elder, made people feel very warm and kind.

But now, from the moment he stepped into the secretary's office, he felt a coercive momentum rushing towards him: a spacious and bright office, an equally large desk, a red flag on the desk, a huge map on the wall, a huge bookcase, and Secretary Lu's expression of not being angry...... All this gave him, the director of the provincial local taxation bureau, who has also experienced a lot of big scenes, a huge shock - after all, this office is the power center of the province, and in a sense, it is also a decision-making center. The fate of many officials in the province is often changed in a conversation or a small meeting in this office.

Therefore, when he sees Secretary Lu again, he has a little timidity and a little anxiety in his heart, which is completely different from the feeling of seeing him at Secretary Li's house that time.

In fact, Secretary Lu usually receives subordinates, and he is very approachable, and rarely makes people feel majestic and awe-inspiring. But when he met Xia Bicheng this time, he changed his usual attitude, and when he saw him, the look on his face was relatively cold, and he was a little careless when shaking hands. Moreover, from the time he came in until he sat down on the chair opposite the desk, Secretary Lu never spoke, just waved his hand at him and motioned for him to sit, and then glanced at him with a sharp gaze from time to time, forcing him to look away in a panic, and the sweat all over his body soaked the shirt inside the suit.

When he felt that Xia Bicheng had begun to be a little flustered and a little uncomfortable, Secretary Lu said: "Comrade Xia Bicheng, presumably Xiao Guo has already told you the purpose of my search for you today. I have limited time, so you can follow the topic assigned by Xiao Guo and briefly talk about the completion of the revenue task of your local taxation system! You should try to be as concise as possible, there is no need to talk about some nonsense and clichés, and it is best not to read according to the script. ”

Xia Bicheng knew that Secretary Lu didn't like officials to read the manuscript when they were reporting, and read those materials according to the script. Therefore, at noon, he spent more than an hour memorizing the report materials given to him by the office, although he could not recite the full text, but he had firmly remembered some of the data and some practices in it.

Therefore, after hearing Secretary Lu's instructions, he quickly settled down, sorted out his thoughts a little, and reported clearly.
