Secretary Lu's voice trembled a little when he heard Li Weidong speak, and he seemed very excited, knowing that Wang Hai's persuasion and what he had just said had an effect, he said again in a sincere tone: "Comrade Weidong, there is no need to be so polite between us. If you have time, welcome to Tianjiang to investigate. You are now in charge of the construction of the Science and Technology Industrial Park, just as Fuxin Group is preparing to build a large-scale Science and Technology Industrial Park in Beishan County, Tianjiang Province. Mr. Zhao Jiping, chairman of the group, has a grand plan to build the Beishan Science and Technology Industrial Park into a super-large industrial park connecting the central and western regions and radiating seven or eight provinces and regions. This plan is very much in line with the 'Spark Project' that you are currently hosting. If you do a good job in the development of this science and technology industrial park, it will be very beneficial to your personal achievements and reputation. ”

Li Weidong hurriedly said: "Secretary Lu, today I have discussed with Comrade Ye Ming, Secretary of the Beishan County Party Committee, and I will go to Beishan next week to participate in the groundbreaking ceremony of Fuxin Science and Technology Industrial Park, and at the same time do a field investigation on the construction and development of this science and technology park." I have decided that this industrial park will become a key project supported by the 'Spark Plan', and the Ministry of Science and Technology will give strong support in terms of funds, technology, and talents. ”

Secretary Lu said with great satisfaction: "Okay, you come to Tianjiang next week, and by the way, stay in the provincial capital for a day or two, meet and chat with Ni Xiaohu, Song Yifan and other comrades, and understand the basic situation of Tianjiang, maybe one day you will come to Tianjiang to work, hahaha!" ”

His last sentence seemed to be a casual joke, but in Li Weidong's ears, it was like a natural sound, which made him almost jump with excitement: It seems that Wang Hai's judgment is completely correct, and Secretary Lu does intend to recommend himself to Tianjiang as governor. Although his last sentence seemed like a joke, with his status, even if it was a joke, it might contain a lot of content. And Secretary Lu's joke is obviously hinting that he will help him fight for the position of governor of Tianjiang......

So, he thanked Secretary Lu again in a trembling tone of excitement, and said that he would definitely go to Tianjiang Provincial City to visit him, Ni Xiaohu, Song Yifan and other leaders, and learn more about the development achievements of Tianjiang under the leadership of Secretary Lu in recent years......

After finishing the call with Secretary Lu, Li Weidong calmed down his excitement a little, took Wang Hai's hand and said, "Lao Wang, thank you for giving me guidance." Let's go, let's go to the box next door, Xiao Ye and Xiao Yi are still waiting for us! ”

After entering the box next door, Li Weidong couldn't suppress the excitement and ecstasy in his heart, and suddenly said to Ye Ming and Yi Xiaonan: "Xiao Ye and Director Yi, when we had dinner just now, because Director Liu, Director Wei and the two reporter comrades were going to have a meeting in the evening, they didn't drink much. When I entered the teahouse just now, I saw wine on the bar, and it was supposed to be a tea restaurant. Why don't I ask the waiter to come to the bar and get two bottles of good wine, and the four of us each drink half a pound of wine to help the fun, how about it? ”

Ye Ming saw that he was so interested, and guessed that the "dead knot" between him and his father had been opened, and he might have received some kind of promise from his father, so he was also very happy, and hurriedly said: "Okay, since Minister Li is so elegant, then let the waiter bring in two bottles of wine and make a few small dishes for wine, and let's drink a few glasses of wine together." ”

After Ye Ming rang the bell and called the waiter, he was about to arrange the wine and a small plate of wine, Li Weidong suddenly stopped in front of him, and said with a smile: "Xiao Ye, let me tell you first: I will pay for the tea and wine tonight, you can't grab it from me, will you invite me next time you go to Beishan?" ”

Ye Ming knew that he was extremely happy and excited today, and now he was rushing to pay the bill because he wanted to express his gratitude to himself, Wang Hai, and Yi Xiaonan, so he didn't fight with him, and happily agreed: "Okay, I won't buy this order with you, next time you go to Beishan, I will do my best to be a landlord and have a drink with you." ”

Li Weidong nodded with a smile, then instructed the waiter to bring two bottles of Wuliangye over, and ordered a fried peanut rice, a plate of fried pork liver, a plate of crispy bamboo shoots with rouge, a plate of stir-fried kidney flowers, a plate of spicy sea spirit mushrooms, and a plate of braised beef.

When the wine and food came up, Li Weidong instructed the waiter to bring four small wine glasses first, and fill the small glasses, then picked up one of the glasses, stood up, showed a solemn expression on his face, and said to Ye Ming in a deep voice: "Xiao Ye, I want to toast your mother Ms. Zhao Han for this first glass of wine." To tell you the truth, when I heard the news of your mother's passing, I was shocked and saddened. There are no outsiders here, and I have nothing to hide: when I was a student at Capital University, I did do some things that hurt your mother, and I would like to solemnly express my deep apologies to you and to your mother under Jiuquan. Your mother is a very good, very kind, very responsible, very courageous strange woman, worthy of your pride in her, proud of her! ”

When he heard Li Weidong describe his mother with four "very", Ye Ming's eyes suddenly turned red, tears flowed down, and he picked up his wine glass and said, "Minister Li, thank you for your high opinion of my mother!" If she had knowledge and heard your words, she would have been very happy. ”

Then, he took the wine glass and drank it all, and Li Weidong, Wang Hai, Yi Xiaonan and other three people also drank the first glass of wine.

Next, Li Weidong instructed the waiter to bring four large glass wine glasses, divide the two bottles of wine into four glasses, and the four people toasted each other while chatting with great interest, and the atmosphere of the whole box was harmonious and warm......

At ten o'clock in the morning the next day, Ye Ming was about to drive Xia Chuchu's car to Director Wu's house, when he suddenly received a call from Li Weidong, only to hear him ask in an enthusiastic tone: "Xiao Ye, are you up?" I'm going to meet Secretary Lu at the airport now, will you come with me? His plane arrived at the capital airport at 11 o'clock on time, and it was still too late for us to rush to meet him. ”

Ye Ming couldn't help but be surprised and happy when he heard that Li Weidong was going to meet his father at the capital airport in person, and invited him to go with him: it seems that Li Weidong and his father have indeed released their previous suspicions, not only that, but he may have been full of respect and gratitude to his father in his heart at this time, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to go to the airport to greet his father in person.

However, Ye Ming still has some concerns: because under normal circumstances, when the secretary of the provincial party committee enters Beijing, the person in charge of the provincial office in Beijing personally picks up the airport at the airport. Ma Jingsong, director of the Tianjiang Provincial Office in Beijing, was Ding Tiansheng's confidant and confidant, and if he went to pick him up, he might have some doubts and associations, so before entering Beijing, his father told him not to go to the airport to meet him.

But now, Li Weidong has invited himself, and it is obviously impolite and inappropriate not to go, so he agreed: "Okay, I will rush to the Ministry of Science and Technology to meet you now, and we will go to the airport to meet Secretary Lu together." ”
