July 2, 1998 at 7 o'clock, the provincial capital of Gao Changhe

When the car entered the provincial capital, Gao Changhe woke up from the eyes. At this time, the midsummer morning sun is shining through the gaps in the buildings of Zhongshan Avenue and through the car windows. Sunshine Square, Moonlight Square, Peace Park...... The familiar scenery on the streets of the provincial capital collided with Gao Changhe's eyes one after another, which made Gao Changhe feel a little strange for a while: Why did he run to the provincial capital? It's early in the morning!

The driver turned around and asked, "Secretary Gao, are you going directly to the provincial party committee?" ”

"To the provincial party committee?" Gao Changhe suddenly remembered the messy things that happened last night, and then remembered that he wanted to report the situation to Liu Huabo, secretary of the provincial party committee. I immediately felt that something was wrong: I was really confused by Jiang Chaolin last night, and I didn't say hello, so I went to the secretary of the provincial party committee to talk to myself, and it was so early in the morning!

After pondering for a while, Gao Changhe changed his mind: "It's still early, let's go to my house first and rest for a while." ”

When the car crossed the Second Ring Overpass and drove in the direction of his home on Shanghai Road, Gao Changhe remembered his wife Liang Li. The provincial party committee talked to him on the 24th of last month, and went to Binh Duong on the 25th to take office. In the past seven days, I was really busy and dizzy, and I didn't even call Liang Li. When talking about work with Mayor Wen Chunming yesterday, Liang Li made a phone call and only said two sentences, the first sentence was: "Secretary Gao, don't you miss it?" The second sentence is: "Make an appointment today, when will you meet you?" "Gao Changhe really wanted to say at that time, how can I not think about it? It's miserable! But because Wen Chunming and several deputy mayors were present, it was inconvenient, and Gao Changhe didn't say anything.

When he arrived at the door of Shanghai Road, Gao Changhe instructed the driver to open a room at the guest house of the provincial party committee to rest, saying that he was the secretary general of the provincial party committee, and he was very familiar with the organs, and he didn't need his car if he had a car. The driver responded and drove the car away, and Gao Changhe entered the house to see his wife Liang Li.

Liang Li had just gotten up and was freshening up, when she saw Gao Changhe, she was stunned at first, and then she was happy, and she affectionately slapped Gao Changhe and said, "Secretary Gao, are you meeting me so soon?" ”

Gao Changhe smiled: "Where, where, you summoned me!" ”

Liang Li smiled charmingly: "Besides, it's been so many days, and you don't even call me!" ”

Gao Changhe said: "I want to fight, but I can't take care of it when I'm busy, such a big market is really enough toss,—— don't talk about it, get some food first, I'll be hungry in the car." ”

Liang Li hurriedly ran to the kitchen to make breakfast, Gao Changhe looked at his watch, it was already ten o'clock, so he called the home of Liu Huabo, secretary of the provincial party committee, and wanted to make an appointment with Liu Huabo to report work. Liu Huabo thought that Gao Changhe was in Pingyang, so he replied that there were more things to do in the past few days, so let Gao Changhe come back in a few days.

Gao Changhe hesitated for a long time before saying, "Secretary Hua Bo, I'm ...... I have arrived in the provincial capital. ”

Liu Huabo was obviously a little surprised: "What's the matter?" Having trouble in Binh Duong? ”

Gao Changhe had no choice but to admit and said: "Yes, Secretary Hua Bo, the work is very difficult. ”

Liu Huabo was very keen, and immediately asked: "Did you have a conflict with Comrade Chaolin?" ”

Gao Changhe was unavoidable, and said: "There are big differences in work, and the situation is already more serious. ”

Liu Huabo was not very happy: "How did you do it, it only took a few days to get it in front of me!" You're a little tall, are your tails too high? Yes? I have repeatedly told you that I want you to respect your old comrades, do you respect them? Comrade Jiang Chaolin, I understand, is not the kind of person who does not care about the overall situation! Xiao Gao, since you came to me to complain, I have to criticize you first! No matter what reason you have, it's not right to make such a fuss with Comrade Jiang Chaolin! ”

The fire in Gao Changhe's heart came up again, but he didn't dare to face Liu Huabo, holding the phone and being silent.

Liu Huabo said: "Of course, Comrade Jiang Chaolin may still be a little uncomfortable for a while, which is understandable, your posture as the new secretary should be a little higher!" On the day of the handover, you spoke very well, and you should learn from Comrade Jiang Chaolin and the cadres and masses in Binh Duong with an open mind. Comrade Jiang Chaolin does have many places worthy of your Xiao Gao's study! Just because the predecessor team led by Comrade Chaolin has laid such a good cross-century foundation for you, you must also be grateful! Isn't it? ”

Gao Changhe said as calmly as possible: "Yes, Secretary Hua Bo, Comrade Jiang Chaolin's contribution to Pingyang is too great, and the achievements he has made are too great, and it is indeed as you said, it is a hero of our party and a national hero." Therefore, I personally have an idea: You and the provincial party committee should suggest to the central committee that Comrade Jiang Chaolin be recommended to work in a higher position, such as being the deputy director of the provincial people's congress. Secretary Hua Bo, I heard that you also had this kind of thought, didn't you? ”

Liu Huabo didn't answer, but asked: "Have you really reached this point of incompatibility?" ”

Gao Changhe didn't say it directly, but said: "Secretary Huabo, I'd better report to you in person, it won't take up much of your precious time, just one hour." ”

Liu Huabo thought for a while: "Okay, then let's meet as soon as possible." I really can't spare time in the morning, I have to listen to the report of the organization department at eight o'clock, and I have to attend the provincial flood control work conference at ten o'clock, so let's talk after work in the afternoon and give you two hours! You should also be fully prepared, and any other requirements and ideas will be put forward at one time! ”

Putting down the phone, Gao Changhe's palms were full of sweat.

Liang Li was unhappy: "Secretary Gao, I thought you went back to the provincial capital to meet me, but it turned out to be a complaint!" ”

Gao Changhe was still thinking about what Liu Huabo said on the phone, ignoring Liang Li.

Liang Li got angry, threw her chopsticks on the table, and said, "Master, please eat, the slave concubine is no longer serving!" ”

Gao Changhe noticed his wife's emotions at this time, smiled reluctantly, kissed Liang Li on the forehead and said, "Liang Li, don't make trouble, I'm annoying, if you provoke me, I'll bite you!" ”

Liang Li said angrily: "Are you annoying me?" Secretary Gao, I was about to tell you: Do you know? A group of people came to Pingyang last night, and they went to Liang Bing's house to remove a Chunlan air conditioner that Liang Bing had just installed, and Liang Bing was so angry that he came to me and scolded your ancestors for eight generations. ”

Gao Changhe was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked, "It's someone sent by Sun Yadong, right?" ”

Liang Li shook her head: "I don't know about this, I only know that it is related to a corruption case in Lieshan." After that, he complained again, "You too, don't say hello to Liang Bing first, let him be mentally prepared!" Liang Bing said, he is really embarrassed, your comrades in Pingyang found his office in the provincial ** organ, and asked him for air conditioning in front of many people. ”

Gao Changhe said angrily: "He deserves it!" Did he lose face? I've lost my face! Liang Li, do you remember the fat man who came to our house that night to ask for an official? Is it the fat man brought by Liang Bing who is going to be the county magistrate? What a bastard, it doesn't matter if the people live or die, I've already removed him! ”

Liang Li said: "I don't have good things to say about Liang Bing, I quarreled with him, and he also said that he will never enter our door again, neither my sister nor your brother-in-law." ”

Gao Changhe snorted: "That's really thankful!" ”

Liang Li said again: "But Changhe, on the other side of this matter, you have to think about it, you are the secretary of the Pingyang Municipal Party Committee, and you have just arrived in Pingyang, why do the comrades in Pingyang not give you face like this?" We should be strict with ourselves, so we don't give face below, I'm afraid there are also articles, right? ”

Gao Changhe said angrily: "Of course there are articles!" Jiang Chaolin and Sun Yadong are all doing my articles! ”

Liang Li was surprised: "Sun Yadong also does your article?" Didn't he want you to preside over the work in Binh Duong? ”

Gao Changhe sighed: "Don't say it, it's hard to say!" ”

Liang Li was silent, hurriedly finished eating with Gao Changhe, packed up the dishes and chopsticks, went to work, and said again: "Changhe, since you are back, go to the hospital to see the old man, he doesn't worry about you!" ”

Gao Changhe: "Okay, good, even if you don't say it, I have to go and see the old man." ”

After Liang Li left, Gao Changhe hung up a phone to Pingyang City** and told Mayor Wen Chunming that he came to the provincial capital in a bit of a hurry, and if he went back at night, if he wanted to find him, he would call his mobile phone. Wen Chunming said that since he had arrived in the provincial capital, he would simply stay at home for the night, and the young couple would also be affectionate, and it would not be too late to return to Pingyang the next morning. Gao Changhe thought about it, so he responded, let's talk about it.

Next, Gao Changhe fell into deep thought again. This conversation with Liu Huabo is not the last conversation with Liu Huabo, it is really unpredictable. The historical relationship between Liu Huabo and Jiang Chaolin is well known, and Liu Huabo's evaluation of Jiang Chaolin's work and the achievements of Pingyang's reform and opening up is well known. Liu Huabo has already said on the phone that no matter what the reason, it is not right to make such a fuss with Jiang Chaolin, and he must be criticized first. He is not afraid of criticism, but he is afraid of a secretary on his head, and he can't do anything. From a general point of view, after a new team is established, the higher-level leaders always do everything possible to support it, but when it comes to Jiang Chaolin, I am afraid the problem is not so simple.

However, it is also strange, Liu Huabo finally said that he wanted him to put forward all the requirements. What does this mean? Is it for him to make a request and refute them one by one? Or is it partially satisfied? During the conversation before taking office, Liu Huabo also said on behalf of the provincial party committee that if there are really people in the team who are not suitable, they can also consider adjustment. So, can the two gods Jiang Chaolin and Sun Yadong be sent away at one time? Can you prompt Liu Huabo to make this determination?

- Jiang Chaolin and Sun Yadong are simply equivalent to a cross-century political earthquake!
