While Stalin was grinding for his own face, Li Xiaofeng, who was still recuperating from his illness, also sulked because after the end of the Central Committee in the afternoon, he received good news from Sverdlov -- the Central Committee had agreed in principle to let him organize and lead the forthcoming Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission.

It seems that in the eyes of some comrades, Li Xiaofeng is crazy and angry when he progresses, isn't this brain-dead? Of course, Li Xiaofeng is not brain-dead, because he is angry for a reason.

At the beginning, Li Xiaofeng was naturally pleasantly surprised by this news, although both the tutor and Sverdlov had previously revealed that he would be in charge of the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission. However, it was not completely decided at that time, after all, such a big matter had to be approved by the Central Committee first, and the Central Committee did not agree, that is, it was useless for the mentor and Sverdlov to be interesting.

In fact, Li Xiaofeng himself did not have much hope at that time, and after more than a year of training, he understood that there are not many leaders in real political life who have pedophilia like Wenger. Being too young is not an advantage at all, and without a good resume and qualifications, it is difficult to move an inch in this circle.

Li Xiaofeng suffered a big loss in this regard, if he was reincarnated in a young man who was about thirty years old, or twenty-five or sixteen years old, with his merits last year, he would not have to run away as a proper alternate Central Committee.

But this Andrey. Petrovich is not yet twenty years old, and no matter how old he is, he will be stuck and he may not be able to move forward for a long time.

So, even if an immortal is the first to make that creative suggestion. Even if he has already started to implement it. And certain results have been achieved. But he knew it. Because of his age, it is too difficult to lead the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission.

According to his original assumption, it would be a surprise to be able to take on a deputy executive deputy or a deputy with real power in the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission. Who would have thought that the mentor would be so powerful this time, and he pushed him up with all his strength.

To tell the truth, when he heard the news, in addition to being a great surprise, a certain immortal was extremely grateful to his mentor. For what? Because the exceptional support of the mentor this time is too important to him.

If an immortal wants to make a big difference in politics. If you want to get rid of the age limit, you have to break through. But the age problem that hinders someone's progress seems to be like a layer of window paper, which can be broken when stabbed. However, it just looks like it, at least a certain immortal himself can't be broken.

To use an inappropriate analogy, a certain immortal is now a non-mainstream who is anxiously waiting to be broken, and he will not stand if he is not broken. If the mentor doesn't help, then next time, there will be the same opportunity. There will still be people who talk about someone's age, and they will be the same to get him.

And this time. The mentor made a strong move, swept away this obstacle in one fell swoop, and let someone take a step forward smoothly. From now on, when an immortal makes new contributions and wants to make progress, if someone wants to take the question of age, it will not work.

Figuratively speaking, the mentor has loosened someone's ties this time, although it is not so completely and completely untied, only one of someone's hands has been liberated, but one hand has been liberated, is it far from the liberation of the other hand?

What's more, in the eyes of many people who are envious, jealous and hateful, the Master Mentor is far more than just freeing someone's hand, but simply loosening someone's hands. The institutions under the Council of People's Commissars are joking, which one is not a ministerial treatment? Although this Shilaozi Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Committee has never heard of it, it can be regarded as a people's commissar, right?

Is it counted as a People's Commissar? In fact, this problem is not only the majority of envious, jealous and hateful passers-by A want to know Lu Dao, but a certain immortal also wants to know what kind of treatment Lu Dao himself is.

At that time, Sverdlov gave the following explanation: "The Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission has not yet been formally established and is still in the preparatory period. The functions and competence of this body still need to be discussed and studied in detail. And that's exactly what you need to work on! Andrey, hurry up and get ready for work! ”

Naturally, Li Xiaofeng could not be completely satisfied with such an explanation, and he could hear that Xiao Si and his mentor seemed to be avoiding something, and what else did the functions and powers of the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission need to discuss? When the three of them had a small meeting before, they had already set the rules, and wouldn't it be over if they implemented it directly? To talk about discussing research is actually to avoid the important and trivial, but not to implement his relevant treatment.

However, Li Xiaofeng can't complain about anything yet, for him to stand out from the encirclement, the mentor and Xiao Si have already made great efforts, without the help of these two, he can't get this position at all. I don't recognize people, I don't understand the difficulties of Xiao Si and my mentor, and I'm not kind and not enough friends!

The pressure from Xiao Si and the mentor is naturally obvious, although a large group of people have to agree to him taking the position, they will not watch someone become the people's commissar, otherwise how embarrassing will it be.

The mentor and Xiao Si have to take care of the emotions of this part of the people, and it is normal to dilute the status of foreign trade and economic cooperation. Anyway, as long as this department is established and someone breaks through the age limit, the goal is basically achieved. As for the specific level and functions of this structure, it is completely possible to put it aside for a while, someone is still young anyway, it would be good to be able to take the position, and he can afford to wait for it.

And not implementing the specific level is also a kind of protection for someone, isn't it, Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, you kid has taken advantage of the actual benefits, and you can get it in your heart, don't go around!

Li Xiaofeng can understand the painstaking efforts of the mentor, and is willing to cooperate with the giving up of some false names, but what he gives up can only be false names, and when it comes to actual things, he will never let it.

"I can understand that the specific level of the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission is not implemented, and I personally don't care if I am not a minister, but ......," Li Xiaofeng said angrily, "However, the reason why the Central Committee established this organ is to let him play a specific role." But now that I don't even have specific functions and powers, how can I carry out my work? ”

Sverdlov smiled bitterly, the pressure on the mentor was so great that he had to give in a little.

He just wanted to persuade a certain immortal, but Li Xiaofeng went to take care of himself and said: "Since it is the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission. That is the unit in charge of foreign trade. The central government must give me policy support. How else can I carry out my work. Sitting and eating dry rice? Isn't that funny! ”

Sverdlov showed an embarrassed expression, indeed, this is very different from the plan they originally discussed, and now the functions and powers of the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission have been greatly restricted. However, there is also a reason for this, the Central Committee was only forced by him and Lenin to reluctantly agree to the establishment of a foreign trade and economic cooperation commission headed by someone. But consent is consent, and distrust of this institution and the ability of an immortal still exists objectively.

Therefore, many members of the Central Committee and former members of the Central Committee, as well as the old revolutionaries, suggested. It is okay to set up a foreign trade and economic cooperation commission, but isn't it better not to take too big a step at the beginning, to do it experimentally, and to carry out successful explorations, and then popularize it after gaining experience?

This kind of proposal made the tutor very difficult, and to tell the truth, the proposal of the foreign trade and economic cooperation committee and someone was not completely substantial, and after the opposition was stronger and there were more people, he had to weigh it carefully. This is because what people say is completely reasonable, and the establishment of the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission is to cross the river by feeling the stones. It seems safer to be careful and take smaller steps!

Forced to be helpless, the tutor can only say. Such an opinion will be taken into account. As a result, the appointment of an immortal at the end of the year has deteriorated a bit, and it seems to have completely become an exploratory nature. Of course, Li Xiaofeng can't accept this result, he feels that there is no exploration at all, and the advanced experience of later generations is there, just learn and apply it, and explore it!

And there is no such exploration, don't give anything, just give a title, and this title is still an empty one, Nima, who buys this? How does Lao Tzu do things? It's better to do nothing than that!

At that time, the goods shouted: "Then what kind of foreign trade and economic cooperation committee should be established, there is no need for this at all, and it can't do things anyway!" Why set up an organization that eats dry rice without any effect! ”

But Sverdlov advised him: "You can't say that!" Since it's exploration, it's not a bad thing to be cautious. Let's do theoretical research first! Consolidate the theoretical foundation, and the practical work will be easy to do! ”

Li Xiaofeng didn't like to hear these words even more, and snorted directly: "Isn't this just a piece of paper?" How can you argue a theory without practice? Isn't that! ”

Sverdlov was even more embarrassed, because he also thought it was nonsense, but there were a number of old revolutionaries in the party who were so nonsense. Those people completely did not understand the important significance of the establishment of the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission, and unilaterally believed that Lenin was a nonsense organization specially created in order to promote Li Xiaofeng, a young man.

Based on this consideration, they believe that your ultimate goal is to promote your cronies anyway, Master Mentor, so let's do it! But we can open this opening for you, but don't really entrust yourself with a heavy responsibility, get an idle job to support, and let that product do a good job of theoretical research to enrich yourself!

"Let's put up the shelves first, and things can be done slowly!" Sverdlov persuaded again.

However, Li Xiaofeng did not accept it, he had done so much work and made such great efforts, in order to open a breakthrough so that he could show his strength. According to Sverdlov's meaning, what are you doing tossing these, in vain!

Therefore, he stopped doing it at that time, and said bluntly: "If Comrade Lenin and you think that such a foreign trade and economic cooperation committee is meaningful, then you should ask Gao Ming to lead this body." I don't have so much spare time to do this kind of nonsense, with this effort, I might as well stay in the hospital to recuperate! ”

Although he was not satisfied with this result, he still felt that this was an opportunity, and he felt that someone could take advantage of this opportunity to break through the restrictions and take the position first, break the rules and regulations, and the road ahead would be easier.

However, Li Xiaofeng does not think so, for him, it is good to be able to make progress, but if he accepts such a disgusting foreign trade and economic cooperation commission, so as to obtain the qualification for progress, he is not reconciled. For what's the matter, this thing feels that if he accepts this result with all his heart, it will be a disguised slap in the face, and he is belittling himself.

This product has always felt that it is well-deserved to be an alternate Central Committee member or even a genuine Central Committee member with his merits, and his ability and contribution are all there! The reason why he can't be in the way is that there are a group of so-called old revolutionaries who don't like him in the way.

If we compromise on the issue of the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission, we will compromise with these old goods. Accept their castration. That's a disguised admission to the outside world - he recognizes the rules of the game for these old guys. Recognizing seniority is the rule of everything. That is to say, he is admitting that he Li Xiaofeng is indeed junior and unqualified, so he asked his mentor to open the back door.

This is absolutely unacceptable to a certain immortal, and if he agrees to such a condition, he is equivalent to eating people with a short mouth and short hands, and he is shorter than those people. Cut! You are so beautiful!

Since the crossing, the most important change in Li Xiaofeng's personality is that he has become more and more persistent. More and more aggressive, more and more proactive. Now let him go back to the state he was in before the crossing, daydreaming!

"Andrei refused?" Lenin was also taken aback when he heard Sverdlov's report, he really did not expect someone to be so characterful. To be honest, he was both relieved and annoyed.

The reason for the annoyance was mentioned earlier, in order to push someone to the top, the mentor made a lot of efforts, and finally opened the opening, but someone actually said that he would not do it. Directly picking on the child, in politics, this is a sign of immaturity.

Although the condition for the upper position is a little aggrieved. But a politician must be able to stretch and bend is not, by temperament, what is that?!

As for the comfort, it is also reasonable, as a politician, you do need to learn to compromise and learn to make concessions, but at the same time, compromise and concession do not mean that there are no principles. Politicians must have principles, and when it comes to fundamental issues, they cannot give a single step. Otherwise, what can you do if you become a good gentleman.

Lenin admired people who could stick to their principles, such as Stalin, who was stronger than Sverdlov in this regard, and sometimes Xiao Si really lacked a little bit of Stalin's domineering and unreasonable, and Xiao Si's personality was a little girly.

In Lenin's view, if Stalin and Sverdlov could be pinched together, then this man would be his best successor. It is a pity that Lenin has not yet discovered such a talent, at least in the entire party, there is only one such person - that is, the mentor himself.

Therefore, for a certain immortal's picking, the mentor immediately showed his personality: "If he says not to do it, he will not do it?" Monkey business! There is no organizational discipline at all, and the things decided by the central authorities can be changed if he says so! Comrade Yakov, you go and inform him, whether he said anything about this matter or not, this is a decision of the Central Committee, and no one can change it! ”

Sverdlov knew before he came that things might turn out like this, and that he knew too well the temper of the mentor, although he did not necessarily fully agree with the emasculation of the functions of the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission, nor did he like the trend of seniority. However, after all, it is very important for him to maintain the authority of the central government!

At this time, the authority of the Bolshevik Central Committee was questioned, with Kamenev and Zinoviev opposing the October Revolution, and Bukharin's left-wing communists opposing the Brest Pact.

These people did not take the Politburo and the Central Committee seriously at all, and they also said that they would pick and choose, and they would leave if they quit the Soviets and the Central Committee. After leaving, he still attacked the center outside, and the impact was quite bad.

So much so that Lenin had to stress discipline again and again and to obey the leadership of the Central Committee. Now, as an important member of the Lenin faction, Li Xiaofeng not only failed to play an exemplary role, but took the lead in contradicting his mentor. Tell me, how can the Mentor be patient?

Sverdlov was worried, he was worried that the Mentor and a certain immortal would turn against each other, the Mentor was used to being strong, and someone was always temperamental. At least he had heard that when someone first joined the party, he had a big quarrel with his mentor, and almost set a record for the fastest resignation from the party. If these two people really make a fuss, the consequences are really unpredictable!

So he whispered: "Comrade Lenin, don't be so impatient. Always give Comrade Andrei a little time to think, maybe in a day or two he will figure it out himself? It's really not good, I'll do his work again in the next two days? ”

Lenin thought for a moment, nodded silently, and ordered: "This is fine, but discipline must be emphasized!" Can't let his temperament come to him! ”

It was at this time that Stalin hurried to Lenin's office, hesitated for a long time at the door, and then knocked on the door: "Comrade Lenin, I am Joseph. Stalin, can I come in? ”

Stalin's sudden visit surprised both Lenin and Sverdlov, and when the meeting was dismissed today, the face of the steel was very bad. To put it mildly, he was almost thunderous. He vehemently opposed the appointment of old military officers and intellectuals, and even more opposed the establishment of the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission. With his personality, how could he suddenly visit late at night?

Lenin and Sverdlov looked at each other, both of them were a little confused about Stalin's intentions, but they could not let the steel stand outside, Lenin quickly said: "Come in, Comrade Joseph!" ”

After entering the door, Stalin saw Sverdlov at first sight, and to say from his heart, he was even more unhappy, he suspected that Lenin and Sverdlov were having a small meeting with him again. If it weren't for Mikoyan's warning, the thing would have wanted to walk away.

I saw Stalin take a deep breath, try his best to suppress the anger surging in his heart, and said a little bluntly: "Comrade Lenin, I have some questions about the conclusions reached at today's meeting of the Central Committee, I really can't figure it out, and I am eager to exchange views with you, do you have time?"
