The old secretary Jiang Chaolin wanted to treat him, but Tian Liye didn't dare not be careful, so he chose a few locations, and finally set them in the banquet hall of the International Exhibition Center located on the seaside. When the boss of the International Exhibition Center heard that the new and old secretaries were coming at the same time, he was highly nervous, and he was busy with Tian Liye, and insisted on inviting guests by himself, saying that the old secretary had laid the foundation for the International Exhibition Center and cut the ribbon, but he had never eaten here, and the center had to invite him once for anything. Tian Liye was happy to save money for the old secretary, so he said, well, you can sign the order quietly when the time comes, just don't let the old secretary know.

At half past six o'clock, Jiang Chaolin arrived first, and then Gao Changhe also arrived.

As soon as Gao Changhe got out of the car, he said: "Hey, our international exhibition center is so magnificent!" ”

Jiang Chaolin was very proud, and immediately introduced happily: "This center has been working for more than three years, with an investment of 100 million 300 million, an investment of 500 million, and a total of 600 million three, not counting the cost of reclamation." The long river, you know? The position we are standing at was originally on the beach, and we filled in 1,500 meters into the sea, so that we had the Haibin Avenue and this super-large square that covers an area of 0.1 square kilometer larger than Tiananmen Square. Last year, we held an international beer festival and an international fashion festival in this square, and the grand occasion was unprecedented! Famous brewers from all over the world and masters and supermodels of the French fashion industry came, and CCTV also made a special feature. ”

Gao Changhe looked at the magnificent square under the sunset, and couldn't help but praise: "Old secretary, I have convinced you, no wonder Secretary Hua Bo praised you as a hero of the party and a national hero!" ”

Jiang Chaolin waved his hand: "The people are the real heroes, and this cause is done by the people of Pingyang!" ”

got on the sightseeing elevator and arrived at the banquet hall on the twelfth floor, the accompanying boss and other entourages all retreated, and Tian Liye also retreated. Jiang Chaolin grabbed Tian Liye: "Hey, Tian Xiucai, don't you go, accompany Secretary Gao to drink a little, please visit, the wine is Liang Lao's, Wuliangye!" ”

Tian Liye looked at Jiang Chaolin, and then at Gao Changhe: "Your chief is talking, I'm in front of me, is this okay?" ”

Jiang Chaolin smiled: "What's wrong? Secretary Gao is about to listen to your report! It doesn't matter if you and the Xinhua News Agency female reporter went to the flat rolling mill, the comrades of the workers will find the door today! Then he introduced to Gao Changhe and said, "Oh, Changhe, this is our famous Tian Liye Tian Daxiucai in Pingyang City, a big thrower, in front of the deputy secretary general of the municipal party committee, he is not doing his job, and he is dedicated to writing sarcastic articles, which is said to be called essays, which are 'daggers and guns'." For this person, I have been reformed for six years and still haven't been reformed, Changhe, you have a long way to go, continue to reform, if you are afraid of being injured by his 'dagger and throwing gun', send it to our city people's congress, let my old comrade continue to beat him! Hey, hey, I said Tian Xiucai, did you bring a book today? Why don't you send a copy to Secretary Gao's 'Yazheng'? ”

Tian Liye was a little embarrassed: "Old secretary, what are you kidding with me?" Secretary Gao has written a lot of articles, and they have all been on the "People's Daily" and "Guangming Daily", how dare I send those small collections of stinky dried tofu to Secretary Gao? That's not a big knife in front of Master Guan! ”

Gao Changhe was very happy and smiled: "Oh, Secretary General Tian, have you really read my article?" ”

Tian Liye hurriedly said: "I have read it, I have read it, and I appreciate your article on the 'trilateral' issue the most, and the title of the article seems to be "Talking about Science, Talking about the Legal System -- Thoughts on the Trilateral Phenomenon", and half of it has been published. In your article, you mentioned that the design, construction, and examination and approval of our economic construction is actually a phenomenon of disorder and rule by man, and it is a derivative of the ultra-left era in the past when it did not pay attention to science, and it is extremely harmful. From the perspective of the legal system, it is a serious violation of the law. I thought you were an economic expert, but later I learned that you were the deputy secretary of the provincial and urban party committee, and later became the deputy secretary general of the provincial party committee......"

Gao Changhe became more and more happy: "Shouldn't the deputy secretary of the provincial and urban party committee and the deputy secretary general of the provincial party committee know a little bit about the economy?" However, the thinking on the trilateral issue was not well written, and it caused me a lot of trouble, and some comrades in the provincial capital who were engaged in the economy were not very happy. In fact, my most proud article has not been published for various reasons, it is an analysis of Binh Duong Private Industrial Park, but our old secretary has provided me with a lot of materials and ideas, and I will scare them a lot when I send it out! ”

Jiang Chaolin didn't expect Tian Liye to read Gao Changhe's article carefully, and when he saw that they talked so speculatively as soon as they met, he said: "Okay, good, you Da Xiucai met Da Xiucai, it seems that you really want to drink a thousand cups of wine with your confidant!" Come, come, Changhe, Tian Xiucai, sit down, talk while eating, you guys come to it 'Green Plum Cooking Wine on Heroes', I also follow the long learning. ”

Gao Changhe said with a smile: "Old secretary, you are the old squad leader of our Pingyang Municipal Party Committee, and we want to learn from you!" Look at how well and atmospheric this big article of the International Exhibition Center is! This big article is enough for me to study for a while! I said at yesterday's meeting of party and government cadres that now we should be students first and study hard. ”

Tian Liye interjected indistinctly: "Yes, yes, study hard to make progress every day." ”

Jiang Chaolin glanced at Tian Liye: "Dumped again, right?" Who are you talking to? ”

Gao Changhe smiled again: "Old squad leader, isn't this your personal treat?" It is not a work dinner of the municipal party committee, and there are no foreign or domestic guests. At the wine table, let's relax, don't talk about the size of the position, and don't talk about official language. Come, come, Secretary General Tian, let's first pay tribute to the old squad leader, and write a good article for the old squad leader on the land of Pingyang! ”

Tian Liye honestly responded to Gao Changhe's call and dried up a full cup of Wuliangye.

Jiang Chaolin joked with Tian Liye again: "Tian Xiucai, you drank the living expenses of laid-off workers for a day or two, do you also write an article to ridicule yourself?" ”

Tian Liye took a bite of food and ate it, and said in a weird manner: "Old secretary, do you think I don't know the distress of laid-off workers?" I can't tell you that every day 'annoying laughter'. My sister was laid off and was bumped into by me on the night train last night, which made me angry. I'm just talking about it, I'm going to write an article in the next few days about how to respect laid-off workers. ”

Gao Changhe immediately said: "Very good! To write this article, we can talk about it from two aspects: first, the society should respect and help laid-off workers; Second, our laid-off workers should also be self-confident and self-reliant. In addition, there is another basic truth that must also be clearly explained: The problem of layoffs cannot be counted in the account of reform, and the laid-off of workers in some state-owned enterprises is not caused by reform, but by the old system in the past, and we are paying off our debts for history today. ”

Jiang Chaolin said: "Yes, it is sad to say, in the past under the planned economy, some of our state-owned enterprises have never made money since they were put into production. First by appropriation, then by loans, now what? If we can't afford to repay the loan, the more we produce, the more we lose, so how can we not make up our minds to readjust the industrial structure? This inevitably led to the temporary sacrifice of some workers. ”

Tian Liye said sullenly: "The workers are making sacrifices, what about the cadres? How not to sacrifice? ”

Gao Changhe said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's fast, the central organs have a lot of movements, and it will be our turn soon, if you, the deputy secretary general of the municipal party committee, don't do your job, maybe you will be sacrificed by me." ”

Tian Liye "gedeng" in his heart and was silent.

Jiang Chaolin also followed: "It's just that if you don't streamline the personnel, if you really streamline the personnel, you have to brush down a group of comrades who don't do their jobs, like this Tian Xiucai." Hey, I said Tian Xiucai, before accompanying the reporter to the flat rolling mill, did I tell you that I wanted you to report to Secretary Gao, did you report? Why did Mayor Wen say that you took the reporter to Jinghu City to fight the autumn breeze? ”

Tian Liye suppressed the fire and said: "I didn't let Reporter Li go, it was Hu Zaoqiu, the executive vice mayor of Jinghu, who abducted her, old secretary, you don't know that Hu Zaoqiu, this guy is a ghost, and wants to organize reporters from all major newspapers in Beijing to watch Jinghu and conduct large-scale interviews......

Jiang Chaolin smiled, and introduced to Gao Changhe: "That Hu Zaoqiu in Jinghu is also a slocker, let's be regarded as the No. 2 slocker, he doesn't look like a county or department-level cadre at all, and we Tian Xiucai are so good that they don't change their heads." However, this comrade is one thing better than our Tian Xiucai, that is, he does practical things, their mayor is not in good health, he has been hospitalized for the past few years, and he is doing the work of Jinghu **. Look, this time I have seized another opportunity to promote Mirror Lake! ”

Gao Changhe thought for a while and said to Tian Liye: "Secretary General Tian, I'm going to criticize you!" Hu early autumn goblin, why aren't you goblin? You are the deputy secretary general of the Binh Duong Municipal Party Committee, why don't you let the reporters take a look at us in Binh Duong by the way? Look at the great undertaking that the old secretary has led to 9 million people? Binh Duong is not only one mirror lake, there are many places to see! Like Binhai City, Lieshan County, it's all good! Oh, by the way, there is a county magistrate named Zhao Chengquan in Lieshan, who fainted at the venue of the provincial city to talk about the project, he still insisted on working despite a terminal illness, and his deeds were very touching, and his deeds were published in the provincial newspaper recently! ”

Tian Liye immediately said: "Okay, okay, Secretary Gao, since you have this instruction, I will carry it out, tell Hu Zaoqiu and them to stop, and hold an activity of 'capital reporters watching Pingyang'!" ”

Gao Changhe said: "We can't let people stop, let's not do the kind of crushing people at the level of officials, but also respect people's invention rights, let's take a ride, tomorrow I will say hello to the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee." Come, or drink, Secretary General Tian, I salute you for this glass of wine, I have read so many articles about me for you! By the way, I also want to read your article, and I also want to read the article of the female reporter of the Xinhua News Agency, which I have already told Mayor Wen. ”

Tian Liye asked sensitively: "Secretary Gao, this means that you want to review the reporter's article?" ”

Gao Changhe nodded and looked at Jiang Chaolin: "Review with the old squad leader." ”

Jiang Chaolin waved his hand: "Changhe, I won't try it, the facts are there, reporters can write how they like, don't you writers have a saying: 'Literary responsibility is self-responsible', I think it's very good!" ”

Gao Changhe shook his head: "Old squad leader, I won't tell you, I don't agree with publishing this article." As I said in the morning, Comrade Sun Yadong was not very calm and a little emotional in dealing with the issue of the flat rolling mill, while your old squad leader has always kept a clear head. You are quite right, the problem of the flat rolling mill is too complicated and involves too many areas, and judging from the results of several investigations, the difficult situation is not caused by the corrupt behavior of any one person, but because the main body of investment is not clear, the responsibility is not clear, and it is caused by the old system of the planned economy. I also made this point of view to the comrades of the workers who came to visit the group today. What I still want to say is: Old squad leaders, the rich experience that you veteran comrades have gained in the practice of reform over the past 20 years is the precious wealth of our new comrades. ”

Jiang Chaolin said with a smile: "Changhe, don't praise me, we have some experience in the past 20 years, but we have learned a lot of lessons!" The flat rolling mill is a big lesson! While inheriting wealth, you cross-century cadres should also face up to this kind of lesson! Therefore, my opinion is: support the Xinhua News Agency reporter to send out the article. ”

Gao Changhe smiled: "Old squad leader, can you tell me the truth?" ”

Jiang Chaolin also smiled: "Changhe, do you suspect that what I just said was a lie?" ”

Gao Changhe took a sip of wine and shook his head: "Old squad leader, do you think that you have retired and don't care about our life or death?" Watching us look abroad in the province and in Beijing? For Comrade Sun Yadong's uncalmness, you bet so much? ”

Jiang Chaolin smiled frankly: "Changhe, to be honest, at the beginning, I was a little angry, not only Comrade Sun Yadong, but also Comrade Ma Wanli, I felt that they didn't even allow us to bear the burden of humiliation, it was really a bit of a bully." But when I calm down and think about it, I feel that I can't blame them, they are also kind and responsible! From another angle, if I were them, I would also ask: Why did these 1.2 billion be thrown into the water? Why did 673,000 yuan be given away? Tian Liye, about the situation in this regard, you must report to Secretary Gao! ”

Tian Liye nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to Secretary Gao's arrangement." ”

Gao Changhe didn't arrange it at all, he didn't look at Tian Liye, he only looked at Jiang Chaolin: "Old squad leader, let's have a drink first!" My father-in-law told me that you drink a lot of alcohol, and you used to drink two cups together, right? It looks like it's in the little red house where I live now, isn't it? ”

Jiang Chaolin took a sip of wine: "This is true, sometimes when I talk about work late, I drink two sips of peanuts, there is no Wuliangye at that time, it is a loose wine of eight anise and five cents a pound." Once I drank too much, I fell asleep on the floor in Liang Lao's living room. Now that I'm old, I can't do it, today is not because I will give you a wind, I don't drink a glass of liquor. Come, Changhe, I'll toast Liang Lao with Liang Lao's wine, you did it for him, okay? ”

Gao Changhe nodded, dried the wine, and proposed, "Secretary General Tian, shall we present a song to the old squad leader?" ”

Jiang Chaolin was surprised, stunned for a moment, and said, "Changhe, are you still so versatile?" ”

Tian Liye didn't know whether to ridicule Jiang Chaolin or Gao Changhe, he glanced at Jiang Chaolin with a smile and said, "Old secretary, do you think everyone is like you, you can only work, not live?" ”

After that, he got up with Gao Changhe and picked up the microphone and sang:

There was a dragon in the ancient East, and her name was China......

When Tian Liye and Gao Changhe were singing, Jiang Chaolin sat at the wine table in a daze, and his distracted eyes neither looked at the two amateur singers nor looked at the TV screen, which seemed quite boring. After waiting for the song to be sung, Jiang Chaolin's eyes regained his usual look, and he applauded politely, and said, "Good singing, good singing!" ”

Gao Changhe pointed at Tian Liye: "Secretary General Tian sings well, I see enough professionalism!" ”

Tian Liye was proud: "Then I'll dedicate another song to the two leaders!" "Spring in the North"—"

When Tian Liye sang to his heart's content, Gao Changhe talked about the flat rolling mill unyieldingly, and said to Jiang Chaolin earnestly: "Old squad leader, can't you think about the problem of the flat rolling mill from my point of view?" ”

Jiang Chaolin sighed and said, "Changhe, I have considered it from your point of view. You don't want to think about it, if the problem of the flat rolling mill is not revealed, how will you deal with Ma Wanli and Sun Yadong? Endure and endure like me? Let Wen Chunming endure it anymore? After the 15 th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, with the big moves of the Central Committee, the state ministries and commissions no longer have as much power as in the past, and it is not so easy for anyone to get us in Pingyang. As for the involvement of individual leaders in the province, my opinions are: first, try to avoid involvement; Second, don't be afraid if it's really involved, we just want to summarize the lessons, not for anyone. It's Deputy Director Wang who died in a car accident, I don't think I need to blame too much. If there is an irrational system like in the past, there will inevitably be a large number of irresponsible 'Deputy Director Wang'. Long River, don't you say? ”

Gao Changhe thought about it, but he didn't know if he really figured it out or pretended to be a gesture, and finally nodded and said, "Old squad leader, you can see everything clearly!" You are right, Deputy Secretary Ma Wanli and Comrade Sun Yadong also want to find out, today I criticized Comrade Sun Yadong, Comrade Sun Yadong has a lot of opinions, and his emotions are also very big, maybe he will report to Deputy Secretary Ma Wanli, he is very stubborn! ”

Jiang Chaolin said meaningfully: "So, the long river, you can't get around the flat rolling mill!" ”

Gao Changhe said calmly: "Then I'll think about it again, and ask the old squad leader to help me think again." ”

Jiang Chaolin waved his hand: "Forget it, in order to facilitate your work, I want to find a place to hide for a while and take a rest." Changhe, shall we make a gentleman's agreement now? When Comrade Hua Bo was secretary of the municipal party committee, I led more than 100,000 migrant workers to build seawalls and river embankments. This year's flood situation came early and was relatively serious, so I will take care of flood control, except for flood control and flood control, you had better not come to me. ”

Gao Changhe shook his head: "Old squad leader, do you really care about our life or death?" ”

Jiang Chaolin said: "If you go down, you will go down, and you will listen to the government!" ”

At this time, Tian Liye had finished singing "Spring in the North", and after walking to the table and sitting down, he interjected indistinctly: "Old secretary, the old squad leader of the senior secretary is shouting, your old squad leader doesn't often check the shop and tuck the corner for the senior secretary?" Aren't you afraid that Secretary Gao will catch a cold? ”

Jiang Chaolin glared at Tian Liye fiercely: "Tian Xiucai, why can't you control this mouth?" You see, what you said is too unruly, right? Is there still a little bit of what the Deputy Secretary-General looks like? I really want to be a cadre on standby! ”

Gao Changhe didn't look angry on the surface, but he laughed and said, "Tian Xiucai, please rest assured - look, I also call you Tian Xiucai, I won't let you be laid off because you said such prickly words at the wine table, that's too petty." Isn't it? But you also have to remember for me: our work is work, if you really do what the old squad leader said, don't do your job at work, and just write sarcastic articles, then I, the secretary of the municipal party committee, will have to do business. Don't say you're a showman, I'm not welcome! ”

Although he said this with a smile, Tian Liye heard the hidden murderous sound.

Tian Liye regretted it at this time, thinking to himself, I am afraid that this wine is injured, but I am afraid that as soon as the wine banquet is dispersed, Gao Changhe will have to hurry up to make three-inch small shoes for him. So, then he pretended to be crazy and stupid, and offered a song to the old secretary for a while, and a song for the new secretary for a while, turning the reception banquet into a solo concert, which made Jiang Chaolin's head big. Jiang Chaolin asked Tian Liye to come over and drink. Tian Liye put his evil energy on the wine table again. After a while of respecting the old secretary and a cup of the new secretary, one person actually poured down half a bottle of Wuliangye, so that Gao Changhe praised him with a mockery on his face, and asked him if he wanted to learn poetry Saint Li Bai and come to a "hundred poems of wine fighting"? Tian Liye said with great vigor that "100 articles" are too few, and he wants "1,000 poems about fighting wine".

After returning home, the more Tian Liye thought about it, the more he felt that the Pingyang Municipal Party Committee had "changed the world", and the relationship between himself and the old secretary Jiang Chaolin was well known, and he decided that Gao Changhe would not tolerate him in any case, so he wrote a report on the transfer overnight in a hazy mood, and voluntarily asked to be transferred to the Municipal People's Congress, "to make new contributions to China's ******** and Pingyang local legislative work."

Throwing the pen away, Tian Liye was still as strong as a cow, and he yelled at his wife Jiao Jiao Jiao: "Wife, let me tell you, for this Pingyang Municipal Party Committee, I Lao Tian is not going to serve!" Back then, Li Bai was drunk and scared of the barbarian book, and today my Lao Tian is drunk and asked for a report......"

Mrs. Jiaojiao was afraid that his voice would not have a good impact on the outside, so she went up to pinch his ears and told him to make a soft sound.

Tian Liye assumed that Jiao Jiao was Gao Changhe again, and shouted more vigorously: "Comrade Gao Changhe, don't overestimate your talent!" Who do you think you are? Haven't you just written a few air-to-air articles? Have you really come to guide our cadres and masses in Binh Duong? Let's see whose world is Pingyang today? If you want me Lao Tian to say, it doesn't have to be your high and long world, and it doesn't have to be ......."

just messed around like this, Tian Liye didn't even wash his face and feet, so he fell asleep on the bed, and Jiao Jiao, who was so angry that he had a habit of cleanliness, scolded the "dirty pig" again and again, and beat and twisted him, but he didn't drag him up to wash his face and feet......
