Chapter 157: It's an Opportunity (Wan More Asks for Votes)
Jin Xilai took a sip of tea, moistened his throat and continued: "But what about Vice Mayor Liu Gongquan? He has only been in the city government for less than two months, where are the connections? Moreover, there is no foundation. ”
"There is gossip that he offended people on the Jinling side, so he was sent here, although it is said to be a level transfer, in fact, it has been demoted."
"You said that if I agreed to Liu Gongquan, once he can't stand with Lin Qianqiu, won't he become the target of suppression."
"When dealing with any political enemy, Lin Qianqiu will not hesitate or be polite. So what do you say I should do now? ”
"I don't want to be a person who will be cold to Lin Qianqiu in the future, and I don't dare to directly refuse to offend Liu Gongquan, he is also the deputy mayor."
After finishing speaking, Jin Xilai grabbed his head with both hands, his face full of worry.
I thought that I would be able to avoid this matter when I went out for a few days, and Liu Gongquan would appoint a new secretary, but who would want to come back and still be myself.
It seems that none of the people in the Secretariat are stupid and understand what to do with this matter.
But the question is, how do you choose?
Well, that's a bit of a hassle.
Although Chu Mufeng said that he didn't know much about the situation of the Beiping City Government, he also knew that Lin Qianqiu was a very strong mayor, and it was said that he had a very good background, otherwise it would be impossible to say that he was in charge of the city government.
In this case, if Jin Xilai agreed to Liu Gongquan's request, he would definitely become the target of public criticism.
No matter how popular you were before, as long as you dare to agree, then it will definitely be difficult to move an inch in the city government in the future.
Those colleagues who talked to you before and laughed at you, maybe they will stab you in the back in the blink of an eye, and the white knife will go in and the red knife will come out, they will stab you very hard, and they will use you as a stepping stone, as a vote for their advancement.
But the question is, how could you be so unlucky and actually fall in love with Liu Gongquan?
Of course, if Jin Xi said that Liu Gongquan was assigned to Beiping City, Chu Mufeng had no objection.
Because in this era, with the relocation of the government to the south, Beiping City has been downgraded, and even the name has been changed to Beiping, and the political and economic center of this year has long been out of contact with Beiping City.
The only thing that can be done here is cultural education.
In this context, is there a problem in saying that Liu Gongquan was assigned?
"There are so many people in your secretariat, why did he choose you?" Chu Mufeng cocked Erlang's legs and asked with a bit of curiosity.
"Hey, don't mention it, I'm going to be upset when I mention it."
Jin Xilai showed a helpless look, leaned back in the chair and seemed to fall into memory and said, "I don't even know if this thing is good or bad now." ”
"I remember what happened when Liu Gongquan first came, and I didn't know who he was at that time, so I did him a favor on the way. He was stolen by a thief on the street, and then I happened to meet him and subdued the thief and took the things back, and this incident made Liu Gongquan remember me! ”
"Later, when he took office, I found out that he was the deputy mayor, and then I thought that this was really a coincidence, who would have thought that he had done a favor to a deputy mayor in the first place."
"After knowing that I was in the secretariat, Liu Gongquan also talked to me later, and he didn't think too much about it at that time. The main reason is that at that time, it was not clear that there would be a contradiction between Liu Gongquan and Lin Qianqiu. ”
"Isn't this now that Lin Qianqiu wants to choose a secretary, I just know that this position is a bit hot, do you think I should do a good deed or not?"
I see.
Let's just say that with Jin Xilai's identity and no special background, he should not be particularly favored by Liu Gongquan, and there is such a saying behind him.
Hey, it's a coincidence, who would have thought that's the case?
In fact, if it is said that Liu Gongquan and Lin Qianqiu remain on the same front after taking office, and the two of them are of the same mind, it will be a godsend for Jin Xilai.
After all, the vice mayor has a good relationship with the mayor, and if anyone can become the secretary of the vice mayor, there is no doubt that the future will definitely be promising.
Now, the two are fighting openly and secretly, so it's not easy to say.
"Do you think I'm going to say yes? Should I refuse? Jin Xilai said with a sad face.
"Refuse?"
Chu Mufeng curled the corners of his lips and said bluntly: "Second brother, although I haven't dealt with this Mayor Liu, and I don't know his temperament, do you think you have the qualifications to refuse this matter?" ”
"Do you think it would be good for you to say no now? If you refuse, it means that you dare to slap him in the face openly, and you are clearly going against him. ”
"Although there is a contradiction between him and Mayor Lin, if he wants to care, if he wants to clean up such a small person as you, I think it's still easy, right? Is it worth it for you to inadvertently set up a great enemy for yourself? ”
"So what do you say? Agree to Liu Gongquan's request, offend Lin Qianqiu? Jin Xilai's words brought out a strong sense of complaint and helplessness.
"It's not as complicated as you think!"
As a bystander, Chu Mufeng thought for a while, tapped his fingers on his knees, and said unhurriedly: "You said that there is a contradiction between the two mayors, are you sure?" ”
"There should be, right? Yes, yes, I've seen the two of them quarrel, and if there is no contradiction, it is impossible for others to spread it. Jin Xilai sat up straight and said.
"Okay, even if they have a conflict, you said that Liu Gongquan was sent over, and that he has no background, can you be sure of this?" Chu Mufeng asked lightly.
"I'm not sure about this, but it should be, if it wasn't for the distribution, why didn't he stay in Jinling and come to our side?" Jin Xilai said with some suspicion.
"You see that you yourself are not sure, I think this matter is that you are thinking too much, who said that coming to Beiping City is to be distributed? That's right, Beiping's status is not as good as Jinling's now, but you should know that even if it is inferior, no one can come over if they want to, not to mention that they are directly appointed as the deputy mayor. Chu Mufeng said with certainty.
"Well, you have a point! Is that a rumor? Or is this news from Vice Mayor Liu's political enemies at all, in order to suppress him? Jin Xilai was already sitting upright and thinking seriously.
"Fourth, is there anything else?"
"And, of course, I think there are a lot of loopholes in what you just said. Let's not talk about that, just your problems. ”
"Second brother, do you think that if you don't have the favor of Vice Mayor Liu Gongquan, with your current development momentum, when will you be able to mix up a half-official position in the city government?" Chu Mufeng's words hit the nail on the head.
Jin Xilai's face suddenly flushed slightly.
Yes, unlike Chu Mufeng, he not only has the ability to solve the case, but also can rely on Yan Ze and Cao Yunshan behind his back.
He doesn't look like Shen Lang either, he has the support of the wealthy Shen family behind him, and he can live happily.
He is not like the boss Fan Xiliang, he chooses the military route, as long as he has enough military merit in hand, it is only a matter of time before he is promoted.
My own family resources are limited, and it is already the limit to be able to stuff myself into the city government at the beginning, and then there is no possibility of using it.
Everything depends on Jin Xilai to fight by himself.
But the career is different from the military, if there is no one to support you and no one to promote, maybe you don't want to rise in this life.
The point is, Jin Xilai is still very young, do you think he can not have a little ambition and ambition?
To be ambitious is to have the opportunity to achieve it.
If you have ambitions, you must have a stage where you can display your ambitions.
The four brothers in the same dormitory, Fan Xiliang, Shen Lang, and Chu Mufeng, are all developing smoothly now, can it be said that they are not as good as they want? Do you want to rely on the three brothers to support? But can't you help them at all?
If that's the case, wouldn't you even look down on yourself?
Thinking about it this way, Chu Mufeng is right, maybe Liu Gongquan is an opportunity.
Since you have no way to refuse, it is better to gamble directly.
Besides, just like Chu Mufeng's analysis, who dares to say that Liu Gongquan has no background background?
An unconfirmed distribution rumor is going to block this road, and Jin Xilai thinks that it is actually quite stupid to do that.
"Second brother, if you still can't figure it out, I remember you said before that a person has a conflict with him, and he is now Lin Qianqiu's secretary, right? What is that man's name? Chu Mufeng remembered that when Jin Xilai mentioned this person when he was drinking before, it was called a gnashing of teeth.
"Fang Yuan!"
Jin Xilai now mentions this name with hatred: "This guy is purely a villain, he stepped on my shoulder and humiliated me unceremoniously, as long as I seize the opportunity, I will never be polite to him." ”
"Fourth, you're right, don't say anything else, just rush at Fang Yuan's bastard, and you should also agree to Mayor Liu's request, so that you have the qualifications to compete with him.!"
"Well, it's over!"
Chu Mufeng clapped his hands and said: "Actually, you came to talk to me, you have already made a choice in your heart, if you say that you are not impressed, it is false, if you are not tempted and just cringe, I am afraid that Liu Gongquan would have been rejected a long time ago, why would you listen to me give you an analysis here." ”
"Second child, I think it, in this life, the most rare thing is the opportunity, you must seize it when you encounter it, if you say sit and watch the opportunity pass, it will be annoyed and regretful for a lifetime!"
"That makes sense!"
The anxiety and uneasiness on Jin Xilai's face had disappeared, replaced by a calm, steady and excited, just like Chu Mufeng said, the opportunity was fleeting, and he definitely couldn't regret it after missing it.
"I'm going to go to Mayor Liu and report my thoughts to him!"
As he spoke, Jin Xilai immediately stood up.
"Why, don't you sit down for a while?" Chu Mufeng said.
"In the future, there will be time to sit, but this matter cannot wait. Fourth, you just wait for my good news, don't send it! Jin Xi came and pushed the door and left in a hurry.
Watching his back disappear from front of him, Chu Mufeng showed a relaxed expression.
"Second brother, you can rest assured to follow Liu Gongquan, this is your chance!"
