Jiang Chaolin noticed that Wen Chunming's expression was not quite right as soon as he entered the door, his face was gloomy, and his eyes were full of unmistakable disappointment and grievance. It seems that in order to cover up this disappointment and grievance, Wen Chunming sat down on the sofa and complained to Tian Liye, deputy secretary general of the municipal party committee, saying that Tian Liye was too irresponsible, and the preparations for the ribbon-cutting of the cross-sea bridge were very inappropriate.

Wen Chunming looked at Jiang Chaolin angrily: "...... Old secretary, what do you guess Tian Liye can say? He said that if you can save some money for Binh Duong, even if you save some gasoline money, he kept saying that it was your instructions! ”

Jiang Chaolin laughed: "This was born with a stinky mouth, there is really no way!" However, Tian Liye really can't be blamed this time, he asked me about sending a car, and I asked him not to send a special car. Secretary General Cheng of the Provincial Party Committee and Vice Governor Wu have special cars, so we can pick them up before we go to Pingyang. However, saving gas or something, that's not what I said! ”

Wen Chunming glanced at Jiang Chaolin dissatisfied, and said, "I still have to send a special car!" The ribbon-cutting of the cross-sea bridge is the last large-scale event of our team, and it is such a big landmark project, so we have to make some noise, don't let people think that we have no one in Pingyang! The words were clearly emotional.

Jiang Chaolin thought that Wen Chunming might have known that Gao Changhe, deputy secretary general of the provincial party committee, was going to Pingyang to be the secretary of the municipal party committee, and he was a little emotional, so he said: "Chunming, don't say that, ah?" The Provincial Party Committee and Secretary Liu Huabo have evaluated how well our current team has done, and the 9 million citizens of Binh Duong have also evaluated it. He waved his hand, "Okay, let's not talk about these digressions, let's talk about tomorrow's arrangement." ”

Wen Chunming then reported: "Tomorrow's ribbon-cutting activity has been implemented, and my idea is: Since this event is the farewell performance of our team, it must be prosperous, and it can be regarded as a farewell to your old secretary." This time, even if I resist the decree, the leaders of the provincial city still have to pick it up, and I have asked the reception office to send someone to send a car overnight, and Mayor Wang personally led the team. A Boeing 757 plane was chartered for the guests in Beijing and the heads of relevant departments, which took off from the capital airport on time at 9 a.m., and would never delay the ribbon-cutting ceremony at 3 p.m. ”

Jiang Chaolin asked: "How are the news units in the capital and provincial cities arranged?" ”

Wen Chunming said: "All arrangements have been made, and there are special personnel to receive them, and the comrades of CCTV, Xinhua News Agency, and People's Daily were accompanied by Minister Shen and two vice ministers of the Propaganda Department throughout the whole process to cooperate with the interview. ”

Jiang Chaolin thought for a while and said: "Let Tian Liye also go to assist in the reception of news units, our Secretary General Tian is a big showman, so he likes to stick to the show, pestering me to help me enthusiastically!" ”

Wen Chunming was stunned: "Hey, old secretary, you dare to ask Tian Liye to assist in the news unit?" Aren't you afraid that his stinky mouth will coldly spit out an elephant ivory to others and scare people? I don't think I can let him go, so I'll send him to be on duty tomorrow to maneuver. ”

Jiang Chaolin said with a smile: "Tian Liye won't be so confused at this time, he really dares to spit out ivory and I'll clean him up!" ”

Wen Chunming glanced at Jiang Chaolin dissatisfiedly: "Old secretary, you are protecting him!" ”

Jiang Chaolin waved his hand: "Don't talk about it." Chunming, you have to pay attention to the rolling mill, and you must not make a mess at such a critical moment tomorrow! Didn't you say the other day that you borrowed some money again? Have the workers been paid? You have to ask, if you don't send it, don't let them look for it in the city, especially tomorrow. ”

Wen Chunming was also a little furious in his heart, and said: "I have been busy with the finishing works of the cross-sea bridge for a while, and I don't know whether the wages of the rolling mill workers have been paid. Otherwise, I'll go to the rolling mill right away and hold a meeting with their cadres overnight! ”

Jiang Chaolin said: "It's okay. ”

Wen Chunming sighed and stood up: "Then I'll go now, anyway, the dog skin plaster from the rolling mill can't be removed if it sticks to me, I ...... I think I'm unlucky! After saying this, his eyes were a little red.

Jiang Chaolin glanced at Wen Chunming and criticized kindly: "Chunming, look at you, what is this called?" Who blames you for the rolling mill thing? Wherever I go, no matter who I am dealing with, I have to say that the responsibility for the rolling mill is not on you, nor on me, it is caused by the contradiction between the old system of the planned economy and the structure of the blocks, what can you do? What can we do with the Binh Duong Municipal Party Committee and the city?! ”

Wen Chunming looked at Jiang Chaolin: "You think so, do we Deputy Secretary Sun Yadong also see it this way?" Does the provincial party committee also see it that way? I know that for my business, your old secretary and the comrades of the Organization Department have talked with the provincial party committee many times, but what is the use? Didn't Gao Changhe still come over?! ”

Jiang Chaolin smiled bitterly and asked, "So, you know everything?" ”

Wen Chunming nodded: "I only found out about it when I had dinner, and I heard that Sun Yadong went to the provincial capital again, and the relationship between Gao Changhe and Sun Yadong is very unusual......

Jiang Chaolin immediately interrupted Wen Chunming's words: "Hey, hey, Chunming, the relationship between this senior secretary and me is not ordinary, we were familiar with him when he was the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee in the provincial capital, and our understanding and ideas on many issues coincide, and I thought about digging him up to our Pingyang a while ago!" Chunming, don't be suspicious of Comrade Gao Changhe! ”

Wen Chunming said: "Old secretary, I'm not blindly suspicious, to tell the truth, I really hope that Gao Changhe can find out all the things in the rolling mill over the years after he arrives in Pingyang!" I still don't believe that there is no justice in this world! However, there is one thing, after the problem is clarified, I will ask Gao Changhe or Sun Yadong to take over the rolling mill, and I want to see what tricks they have. ”

Jiang Chaolin's face sank: "Chunming, it's not good for you to say that, you have emotions!" I can see it as soon as you walk in the door. Comrade, let me tell you, you have to remember: you Wen Chunming is the mayor of a city and the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, and at all times and under all circumstances, you must give priority to the overall situation of Binh Duong. What I also want to say is that in the future, you, the mayor, and I, the director of the National People's Congress, will support Comrade Gao Changhe's work, and I don't want to see anyone make trouble in the new team! ”

Wen Chunming knew the temper of the old secretary in front of him, sighed, and said nothing.

Jiang Chaolin was still talking, but his tone softened a lot: "Chunming, since you know everything, I won't hide it from you." When I recommended you to the provincial party committee to be the secretary of the municipal party committee, I did it completely out of public interest, not because of the personal feelings between us. Now that the Provincial Party Committee has set a high level, I think the Provincial Party Committee is also out of public interest, and the purpose is to do things better in Binh Duong. Therefore, we must not be dissatisfied with the decision of the provincial party committee, still less can we get along with Comrade Gao Changhe because of this. Chunming, don't be hot-headed, don't think that Pingyang is the largest economic city in our province, just your tail as a flag, and let people say that we are xenophobic. ”

Wen Chunming nodded, and smiled as if crying: "Okay, old secretary, I listen to you, your old leader can bear the humiliation, and I will admit it." Here, I would like to make a statement: As long as Gao Changhe comes to Pingyang to do great things and do practical things, I will definitely support Gao Changhe like your old secretary. ”

Jiang Chaolin said: "That's right, the heart is selfless and the world is wide!" ”

However, sending Wen Chunming out of the door, Jiang Chaolin looked at the lights of thousands of homes in Pingyang outside the window, but fell into deep thought.

The decision of the provincial party committee was too sudden! How much he hoped that the provincial party committee would accept his suggestion and the Pingyang Municipal Party Committee and promote Wen Chunming to the post of secretary of the municipal party committee to take over his shift, but Wen Chunming was deeply trapped by a flat rolling mill that everyone talked about. So there was a Gao Changhe who had nothing to do with Pingyang. This fact was like lightning streaking across the starry sky, which made Jiang Chaolin surprised and uneasy. Jiang Chaolin is not sure, is the arrival of this strange figure a new historical opportunity for Pingyang, or a game of thrones? Although he had met Gao Changhe several times at some meetings of the provincial party committee and on some occasions, he really did not know what this cross-century cadre was thinking in his heart. It's just one thing for sure, Gao Changhe will never be Wen Chunming, an old comrade-in-arms who knows the roots. He could adhere to the organizational principles against his will and do Wen Chunming's work according to the requirements of the provincial party committee and Secretary Liu Huabo, but he could not convince himself at all.
