Chapter 44: The Female Vice Governor (2)
Tang Zhongkai, who participated in the reception, also listened attentively to the conversation between the two leaders, and what Governor Liang talked about was actually the direction of the province's work in this area next year, and Lu Zhengdong talked about it, and he couldn't miss it, that was the direction of the city's work in this area next year.
An Junyi also listened very carefully, but he couldn't be like Tang Zhongkai, he had to pay attention to other things, such as dining.
The two sides talked quite happily, so much so that the time for dinner was postponed a lot, An Junyi looked at Director Zhang of the Foreign Trade Department who accompanied him, and the other party, like Tang Zhongkai, was also understanding the intention of the leader.
So he only looked at Liangmei's secretary, a very young girl, and when the other party saw his inquiring gaze, he glanced at the vice governor who was concentrating on the conversation, and he also looked very embarrassed.
In the end, it was Lu Zhengdong who stopped talking in time, and it was over.
On the wine table, Lu Zhengdong found that the atmosphere on the table was a little strict, and there was no serious business on the wine table, but many serious things were completed in this wine and ears.
There is no business at the dinner table, in order to enliven the atmosphere, in addition to fighting wine, and then to tell jokes, but today here is a female governor, or an unmarried female governor, it is definitely inappropriate to let the people below tell a joke, although Director Zhang of the Foreign Trade Department is good, but also want to come to Director Zhang and dare not make a mistake.
So Lu Zhengdong had no choice but to find a way to see how to make the female governor drink.
Liangmei doesn't like to drink, before she became the deputy mayor and mayor, she didn't drink a drop of wine, that is, when she was the mayor and deputy mayor, her subordinates would generally let her replace the wine with tea, but this does not mean that she drank. As an official. As long as one foot steps in. Even if you don't get a drop of wine, you will quickly exercise it, without him, there is no wine in the country, and after being transferred to the city below as the deputy mayor and mayor, I know that drinking is also a science, an art, and a local official. If you lack the ability to drink, the ability to persuade drinking, and the ability to fight for alcohol, then you are not outstanding in this official, and you are even incompetent in a certain way.
Because many seemingly unattainable goals and complicated things, seemingly difficult things to do, suddenly become simple when they arrive at the wine table, and many things that cannot be done in the first place. After a drink, there is room for flexibility. And the most sought-after capital policy, if you don't drink the wine well, it will be even more difficult to put in place.
No wonder people want to say that a good mayor is first and foremost half a restaurant, although she does not agree with such a statement, and also feels that this is really a bit ridiculous, but this is the reality, in the face of reality, she has to be flexible, no matter how the wine is really drunk.
But at ordinary banquets, she still doesn't drink, and today she is in a good mood, so she doesn't shirk much, but she doesn't want to drink more, so she can only drink three glasses.
Lu Zhengdong is not as hard as others, three cups are three cups, when he respects, he drinks it all, and she only has three cups anyway, at the same time, he did not snub the people from the province who are from the province, and even went to the table next to him to salute the clerks from the province and An Xin's entourage, and said hard work.
Lu Zhengdong seems to have a lot of alcohol, in terms of drinking, he is really a qualified mayor, and what makes Liangmei feel even more is that he is really ...... to the people below Very respectful, because she noticed some details, he was not purely perfunctory because he was a deputy minister, and the table was basically filled with personnel such as section-level deputy divisions, but he drank very dryly, and his words were warm.
Liang Mei feels that she is a little lacking in this regard, indeed she is very strict, when she was the executive vice mayor, she knew that many departments in the city are difficult to enter, ugly faces, difficult to hear, difficult to do, the deputy county magistrate below, a section chief can also "dry" people for a long time. As a result, she demanded that the ministry and organs change their work style, and sharply criticized some people by name, "making it unbearable for many cadres." Some people complained to the higher-level leaders, but fortunately, the higher-level leaders also felt that this atmosphere was becoming stricter and stricter, and they supported her.
If you are not strict, some things will not be implemented, but it is not okay to make people angry, and sometimes you still need to have a strategy......
I don't know if it's drinking, or what's going on, Liangmei two glasses of wine in my stomach, I feel a little floating, the feeling of drinking is completely different from when I don't drink, when I don't drink, I don't have anything in my heart to drink, those thoughts jump naked on my face, look at each other's eyes, as if I also let the alcohol anesthetize, how to look at how pleasing to the eye. Sitting next to Lu Zhengdong, Liangmei always had a warm feeling in her heart, which was amazing.
In her work, she has also met many excellent men, some of whom are close, but she never feels anything special. Lu Zhengdong is different, he brings her a strangeness and novelty. In fact, when I think about it, this kind of strangeness or novelty has long been commonplace, but it is reflected in him, and it has a different taste, in her eyes more and more angular face, eyes full of a certain temperament, and that broad and firm chest......
Bah, this feeling made her a little flustered, indeed Lu Zhengdong is the type she admires very much, and it seems to have made her already silent heart ripple, she didn't make up her mind to be single for the rest of her life at the beginning, on the one hand, because she was busy with her career, on the other hand, there was really no one she looked down on, so much so that when she looked back now, she had to admit that she set the standard of Prince Charming in her heart too high, which was completely idealized, in fact, such a person only existed in the illusion.
Even if he was born a few years earlier, and then met him a few years earlier, I'm afraid it would be fruitless, because two people who are also strong, two people who are also very ambitious, come together, and most of them hit their heads in the end, thinking of this, Liangmei herself can't help but laugh, and she struggles to drive out this feeling......
Liang Mei ate some vegetables slightly, drank three glasses of wine, and then quit the table, smiling and beckoning everyone to continue.
She knew very well that with her at the table, everyone else was uncomfortable drinking, not only because she was a woman, but also because of her level, with her, she was the center, and she still had to give the people below some opportunities to express themselves.
After returning to the room with the secretary, I rushed to the bathroom in a hurry, and sat in the car for a long time, which was quite dusty and uncomfortable in places that were not uncomfortable. It wasn't until she soaked in the hot water that she breathed a long sigh of relief.
It was so comfortable to be immersed in the water, and when I closed my eyes comfortably, something strange came to my mind, and I couldn't help but think about other people who might still be eating.
Those people may have made jokes again, she is a female leader, these people don't dare to tell those half-vegetarian jokes in front of her, but if you turn around and change it to a male leader and a female subordinate, it will be very different.
When she was the mayor, the directors and directors of those departments in the province didn't care if she was unmarried or married, and most of the jokes on the wine table were colorful.
Thinking about it, there are strange and strange jokes in my mind, especially once she and the secretary general of the municipal government invited the leaders of the Provincial Economic Commission and the Department of Finance to dinner, among which the deputy director of the Economic Commission said a very straightforward, saying that a leader invited Miss to eat, let Miss order, Miss didn't think about it, so she ordered "braised bullwhip" for the leader, after the dish came up, Miss gave the leader courtesy, and took the initiative to clip the bullwhip to the leader, who knew that the chopsticks were disobedient, not clamped, the bullwhip fell between the legs of the Miss, Miss was shocked, Dao: This thing is really powerful, it's chopped off and cooked, and it still knows the road.
After the deputy director finished speaking, everyone laughed, she wanted to laugh, but she didn't dare to laugh, and she was embarrassed to laugh, just when she was holding back, her hand shook, and she sprinkled water on her body, and a person from the Finance Department immediately attacked her:
"Don't talk about it, don't talk about it, you didn't see it, Mayor Su's skirt is wet......"
At the end, he said earnestly:
"Mayor Liang, let's hurry up and find one, don't always be single."
She blushed to the bottom of her neck with shame.
Later, Liangmei also found that the more shy she was, the more those people would get worse, they just liked to see the shy and timid look of women, and they wanted to say goodbye.
But this is her death hole, even after going through so much at the wine table, she still can't bear this.
Of course, behind such jokes, she can always feel a special taste, it's not that she's suspicious, but she's an unmarried woman, or a beautiful unmarried woman, in this feudal and positive land, single women have to pass the "terrible words" level, Liangmei is almost used to it, as long as her position changes, there will be a message to accompany her.
Especially this time to the deputy ministerial level, the rumors are even more outrageous, and even her popularity was once higher than many leaders who were much higher than her, and the more this is the case, the more she wants to be firm, independent, self-reliant, and hard-working. As a woman, if you want to stand out from an industry where men are absolutely dominant, you must pay several times the hard work of others.
So she must be very tenacious, if she wants to become the master of her own life, she must not let public opinion sway, a single woman, without this, it is difficult to persevere, and she will not be able to get to this point today.
In order to familiarize herself with the situation as much as possible, she dedicated all her rest time and spare time to the new position of "vice governor", fortunately, she was single, without any drag, she just wanted others to see, why did she get to where she is today.
Of course, she is also a normal woman, a woman with normal emotional needs, but such emotions are forgotten by her in the busyness, and her work so fully every day is also to let her fall asleep in exhaustion every day, saving her crankiness...... (To be continued......)
