On the morning of the second courtroom, before it was time for the meeting, the deputies all entered the meeting hall in twos and threes.

Since today is the general election of the city government, the delegates arrived a little earlier. The procedures are fixed, and the relevant resolution must be passed before the official election. The delegates raised their hands and put them down, raised their hands and put them down again, applauded and applauded. When there was no applause, there was only the rustle of turning the text in the venue, and the atmosphere was very solemn.

Lu Zhengdong looked at the rostrum a little distracted, his candidate was spontaneously "proposed" by more than 20 deputies to the National People's Congress according to the arrangement, thinking of this, Lu Zhengdong couldn't help laughing at himself, he was a serious candidate.

Looking at the row of bonsai under the rostrum, there were originally all kinds of flowers and plants on the stage, and today more than a dozen pots of flame-like strings of red have been added, and the rostrum is even more crowded, and the more Lu Zhengdong looks at it, the more unpleasant it becomes.

Originally, there were already many leaders of the people's congresses, but the presidium of the congress alone was crowded on the platform, and now it is even more crowded when some members of the Standing Committee who are not members of the presidium are also sitting on it.

Lu Zhengdong saw that Liu Jianzhong, who was sitting next to the director of the National People's Congress, seemed to have a little thought, and couldn't help but feel a little strange, could it be that Liu Jianzhong was also worried about An Zhiqiu?

Liu Jianzhong is indeed a little worried about the stock market, but Lu Zhengdong guessed wrongly who Liu Jianzhong was worried about.

There are indeed some anomalies in this election, and Liu Jianzhong has already realized this. The deputies seem to have some opinions on the work of the city government, and this opinion is directly reflected in their dissatisfaction with An Zhiqiu and with Yang Ancheng, the executive vice mayor in charge of finance. was dissatisfied with Mei Yunlin, who was sent down by the province.

However, Liu Jianzhong is not too worried about the executive and An Zhiqiu, as the old deputy mayor, the two of them have old qualifications and wide connections, so they should not have problems in the election, and he is most worried about Mei Yunlin, a young cadre from the province.

Mei Yunlin is only 37 years old, and he was specially selected by the province in order to improve the age structure of the city's leading group, so there can be no mistakes......

Just when Lu Zhengdong was distracted, the ballot papers were handed out, and the venue was completely quiet. The occasional cough immediately spread throughout the audience, Lu Zhengdong was the official representative, he got the votes, the mayor was elected equally, only Ge Yunchang's name was one, and the deputy mayor candidates were in order according to the strokes of their surnames - Yu Fengxiang, An Zhiqiu, Shen Zhuang, Yang Ancheng, Zhou Tianfang, Lu Zhengdong, Mei Yunlin, Qu Zhongying.

According to the organizational principle, Lu Zhengdong should give up on himself, but Lu Zhengdong didn't think so. Anyway, they are all going to be dropped, if you don't vote for yourself, who will vote for yourself?

As for the people who gave up, Lu Zhengdong chose An Zhiqiu almost without thinking about it, because Yilan liars invested in it, and An Zhiqiu gave him a lot of stumbling blocks. What's more, An Zhiqiu and Yang Kailin are very close.

After filling in the ticket, Lu Zhengdong relaxed a lot, although this incident will continue to have an impact on his life, work and even career, but the matter has finally come to an end now.

The "Athletes' March" sounded, and the delegates stood up and walked to the ballot box.

Lu Zhengdong listened to this song and felt indescribably awkward. This song is too bad, the sports meeting is this tune, the party congress is this tune, and the people's congress election is also this tune, and I always feel that it is nondescript.

After casting the vote, there is no electronic counting equipment in the city. It will take some time to get a unified ticket, and it has been a practice for many years to use this time to watch a movie. The venue went dark, and the movie was soon shown.

The movie is "Armageddon", which was just released two years ago, in fact, everyone present has already seen it, but you can't move around at will, instead of sitting bored, it's better to rewatch it. It's just that the last episode of the Liaoshen Battle has been released, and according to the general law, the counting of votes has basically ended at this time, and the results should be announced. …,

It's just that I don't know what the reason is, and then the next episode of the movie was played, and the delegates in the venue couldn't sit still, but because of the discipline of the conference, they still watched the movie patiently. However, when the second episode of the Liaoshen Battle was finished, it was already past twelve o'clock, but there was still no sign of announcing the election results, but the first episode of the Huaihai Battle was put on again, and a humorous representative said in a low voice:

"Look at our predecessors who have knocked down the entire Northeast, and they have not yet come out with the results of the vote counting, tsk, the efficiency of the staff of the Municipal People's Congress is really good, should the results be out after the three major battles......

There was a burst of laughter, but more people had a very certain thought in their hearts at this time - there was definitely something wrong with the election.

Lu Zhengdong sat there and wondered who could go wrong.

Could it be that Ge Yunchang was chosen?

The election is the highlight of this people's congress, and Ge Yunchang is the top priority, and the election of the deputy mayor, court president, and procurator general is also very important, but compared to the mayoral candidates, they are still dwarfed, and these people have problems with the election, so will they not delay for so long without announcing the results?

However, Lu Zhengdong guessed wrong, it was he who had problems in the election, and now he is in the center of the storm.

At this time, in the small conference room next to the venue, Zhang Zhibin, deputy director of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, all the Standing Committee members of the Municipal Party Committee, Liu Jianzhong, Director Lin of the National People's Congress, and others gathered in the conference room.

The order of votes in the vice mayor election from high to low is: Yang Ancheng, Shen Zhuang, Zhou Tianfang, Yu Fengxiang, Mei Yunlin, Lu Zhengdong, Mei Yunlin, Qu Zhongying, An Zhiqiu.

Seeing that Lu Zhengdong's name was actually ranked sixth, and he was still ranked in front of Qu Zhongying, the female mayor of the city, Liu Jianzhong was dumbfounded, Lu Zhengdong was not only not eliminated, but also had a good vote, his face became extremely ugly, and everyone else looked at each other, because it meant that An Zhiqiu was eliminated.

After a while, Liu Jianzhong said: "Minister Zhang, I am responsible for the election. ”

Zhang Zhibin arrived in Long Beach last night, and he had also listened to the city's report on the election before, and felt that there was no problem, and he did not expect that Lu Zhengdong, a young man who was only 26 or 7 years old, would get so many votes. Right? ”

Liu Jianzhong nodded:

"I found it shortly before the meeting."

"And did he have anything unusual during the meeting?"

"On the surface, no action was found, and the rest needs to be investigated......"

As a difference, the city naturally took "key care" of Lu Zhengdong during the meeting, and it was precisely because Lu Zhengdong did not make any changes that Liu Jianzhong did not worry that Yang and An would lose the election.

But Lu Zhengdong got such a high number of votes, which was obviously abnormal in Liu Jianzhong's opinion, so he immediately expressed his intentions.

"That is, there was no sign of bribery before this?"

"No, or ...... Choose again? ……”

Zhang Zhibin also had a headache when he heard Liu Jianzhong's answer, and it was not uncommon for an accident to occur during the re-election. However, such things generally happen below, and such situations rarely occur at the municipal level, and of course it is not uncommon, and such things have already occurred in the provincial and ministerial level readjustment at the beginning of last year, so that the provincial personnel adjustment plan formulated by the central government has not been fully implemented.

In a certain eastern province, because the party deputies were too inclined to a certain city in the province in terms of the governor's administrative measures, the provincial governor was actually elected in the election of members of the provincial party committee.

According to the current organizational system, administrative heads at all levels are generally the first deputy posts of party committees at the same level. But he was not elected as a member of the provincial party committee, which means that he cannot be elected as a member of the Standing Committee and deputy secretary, and only the provincial governor who has no administrative position in the party is a serious governor of the province, and the Standing Committee is not present but attended, which is a strange anecdote, and this is the first time since the founding of the People's Republic of China that he has ..........

And Long Beach can be regarded as a precedent for major problems in provincial and municipal elections, he is guided by the division of labor in the Long Beach general election, and now Long Beach has a problem, which makes him very faceless, and more importantly, Director Lin of Long Beach does not dare to announce such election results. Liu Jianzhong didn't dare to make a decision, he didn't dare to make a decision, and as for choosing again, he didn't dare to make a decision for such a heavy thing.

Zhang Zhibin thought for a moment before saying:

"There is a procedural issue with the elections, and the procedure is legal and normal. We need to be cautious. It is necessary to consider whether the re-election is in line with the Organic Law and whether it will cause a stir in public opinion. We must think more about the complexity of the problem, think more clearly about the legal issues, think more comprehensively about the countermeasures, and study the legal issues clearly. The times are different, the consciousness of the masses of the people is high, and if we don't get it right, there will be chaos...... Things are already out. The follow-up work must be done well, I think so, first, urgently and truthfully report to the province, please ask the province for instructions; The second is to find relevant personnel to understand the matter of this election and see if there are any problems in the election, which must be realistic; Thirdly, I would also like to talk to some representatives. ”

After all, Zhang Zhibin is an old organization, and he quickly came up with a response plan.

Liu Jianzhong hurriedly implemented them one by one.

The reason why Zhang Zhibin wants to talk to these ordinary representatives in person instead of those cadres below is because he only had a cursory understanding of Lu Zhengdong before, except for knowing that he is young, he doesn't know much else, and now that he is like this, he must have a comprehensive understanding of what kind of person Lu Zhengdong is, which makes it easier to uncover the truth of the matter, and from the grassroots level, this is his only magic weapon.

When a representative of the National People's Congress was invited in, Zhang Zhibin patted the sofa next to him with a smile and said:

"Come, it's Comrade Zhang Feng, please take a seat."

The identity and origin of the person who came, the person who arranged it wrote a note, Zhang Feng, a teacher, and a representative of the Yilan National People's Congress.

Zhang Feng obviously couldn't let go, and he was a little twisted, but under Zhang Zhibin's slow temptation, he soon got much better, and talked about some of Lu Zhengdong's work in Yilan:

"Although Secretary Lu has not been in Yilan for a long time, he has done a lot of practical and important things. The first is to rectify public order. In the past, Yilan was very chaotic, stealing, robbing, and fighting on the street was not strange, and even murders often occurred, making the people feel insecure. After Secretary Lu came to Yilan. After some rectification, we now have a much greater sense of security. I teach at Yilan Middle School, and there used to be some random people at the school gate, but now the gangsters at the school gate are basically extinct. ”

"The second is to repair the highway that has not been solved for many years, which is also the long-term wish of the people of the county. It was also repaired during Secretary Lu's tenure. Even if Secretary Lu doesn't do anything. Just build the road. The people of Yilan will read his goodness. ”

"The third is that the economy is doing well, Yilan has doubled its finances during Secretary Lu's tenure, and our education system has also benefited, since Secretary Lu to Yilan, the arrears of salaries to our teachers and staff have not been ......"

Zhang Zhibin heard Zhang Feng say four or five things in one breath, and asked with a smile:

"You teach math, right?"

Zhang Feng nodded, a little embarrassed, talking about such a thing actually listed one, two, three, four.

Zhang Zhibin was touched, although Zhang Feng denied voting for Lu Zhengdong, but from his words, it shows that it is not the same thing, and it is estimated that other ghostwriters in Yilan County may be the same as Zhang Feng, and did not vote according to the delegation's wishes.

Lu Zhengdong is now the director of the Poverty Alleviation Office, and then Zhang Zhibin talked to the deputies of the people's congress in the poor mountainous areas, and the deputies also said a lot of good things about Lu Zhengdong, which made Zhang Zhibin also have a preliminary judgment, Lu Zhengdong is indeed still capable, and he has really done a lot of things, so many deputies are the head of the delegation to greet and agree openly, but secretly they all voted for Lu Zhengdong. …,

Zhang Zhibin learned about An Zhiqiu's situation again, and in front of him, many people didn't say bad things about An Zhiqiu, but the good words were very reluctant, and in fact, it already showed that the deputies were very dissatisfied with An Zhiqiu. In this way, Lu Zhengdong was elected, and it was not uncommon for An Zhiqiu to lose the election.

It seems that Liu Jianzhong was not too detailed in the selection of the difference, and he did not pay enough attention to An Zhiqiu's affairs.

But now I have to wait for the instructions of the province, but after waiting for more than an hour, the province just keeps calling to verify and supplement the situation, and has not given instructions for a long time.

Zhang Zhibin didn't expect that it was the first time the province had encountered such a situation, and if Lu Zhengdong was of average age, the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial People's Congress would still dare to slap this board and declare the election valid.

But the problem is that Lu Zhengdong is too young, at the age of 26, he became a deputy department-level cadre and served as a real deputy mayor at the prefectural and city level, which is probably a precedent in the whole country, because Yuan Lin, executive deputy director of the Organization Department, and Liu Zhenqiang, director of the Organization Department, have made difficulties.

So he hurriedly reported to the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee in charge of the party and the masses, and the deputy secretary of the party and the masses also made difficulties, and did not dare to make a decision, so he hurriedly reported to Secretary Yang of the provincial party committee as soon as possible.

The province is repeatedly verifying the situation and discussing how to deal with this matter, which takes time.

When the clock turned to one o'clock in the afternoon, when the Huaihai Battle was halfway over, and the deputies were almost hungry, the reply from the province finally came...... (To be continued......)
