Hou Weidong was originally going to return to Shazhou, but he received an urgent notice temporarily, and he said to Chu Xiuhong: "My appointment has not come down yet, so it's not appropriate." ā
Chu Xiuhong said: "Today, Governor Zhu wants to attend the meeting in person, and he wants you to participate by name, and you want to ask for leave, I'm afraid you have to ask Governor Zhou for leave." He asked again, "Brother Weidong, is there something wrong with you?" ā
Hou Weidong was reluctant to make his family's affairs public, and said, "It's okay, I'll have a meeting on time." ā
Sitting in the car, he called his eldest brother Hou Weiguo and said, "I will attend a meeting of the provincial government later, and I will come back later." ā
"You're busy, it's already happened, it's useless to be anxious, I've already called my dad, and he's also on his way home." Hou Weiguo is the eldest son in the family, his father is not there, and the eldest brother is his father, he has already called Hou Yonggui and Hou Xiaoying, preparing to let all the family come back to discuss family affairs.
Hou Weidong said: "Big brother, my idea is not to tell my mother for the time being, if she learns the real condition, she will definitely not be able to stand it, and also, our whole family gets together like this, my mother is so smart, she will definitely be suspicious." ā
Hou Weiguo recovered from the initial shock and said, "I have already thought about it, after Dad returns to the Crescent Tower, if he doesn't go home first, he will gather at your house, hold a family meeting first, and then decide how to take measures." ā
Putting down the phone, Hou Weidong settled down a little and came to the provincial government in the car. Walking on the ground floor of the provincial government building, there was a burst of sadness, and he said secretly: "My mother is this kind person, she has worked hard all her life, and when it is time to be happy, who knows that she has this disease." Thinking of this, the corners of his eyes unconsciously moistened.
Entering the hall, he called Hou Weiguo again and said, "Big brother, the level of the city hospital is limited, I doubt the results of the examination, and find a way to let my mother come to the provincial capital to check her body." ā
"Wait until there is a family meeting, the key is Dad's opinion."
Hou Weidong remembered something again, and said, "Dad is driving by himself, let him be careful, don't drive too fast." At this moment, he did not have the confidence of a leading cadre at the deputy department level, and he was very troubled by gains and losses.
Upstairs, Hou Weidong took a deep breath, tried his best to make his expression natural, he looked at his watch, it was only three thirty o'clock, and he did not go to the conference room, but walked directly towards Zhou Changquan's office.
Shi Xiaolei, a member of the party group of the general office of the provincial government and the head of the discipline inspection team, met Hou Weidong head-on, the unhappiness in his eyes flashed, and Lao Yuan stretched out his hand and said: "Secretary General Hou, welcome, in the future, our provincial government general office will have another tiger general." ā
Hou Weidong was extremely depressed in his heart, but out of politeness, he still squeezed out some smiles and said, "Secretary Shi, I am a recruit, you still need to take care of me." ā
Shi Xiaolei smiled and asked, "Is there any arrangement in your office, I'll help you ask." ā
"I just talked in the organization department today, and the appointment has not yet been issued."
"You're coming for a meeting, it's still early, come to my office and sit down."
Hou Weidong was really not in the mood to deal with Shi Xiaolei, he said politely: "Come to visit Secretary Shi another day, I am going to find Governor Zhou now." ā
Although he was polite and had a slight smile on his face, his expression was generally a little cold due to his bad mood. Shi Xiaolei has been mixed in the provincial government office for many years, and he has already cultivated into an adult, and he felt Hou Weidong's coldness, with a haha on his lips, but he said in his heart: "In the party school, Hou Weidong is still low-key, and now he is like a cocked tail when he first arrives at the provincial government. ā
Hou Weidong didn't have the heart to play a psychological game with Shi Xiaolei at all, and after shaking hands and saying goodbye, he came to Zhou Changquan's office. He went to Chu Xiuhong's office first, knocked on the door, and said, "Xiuhong." ā
"Secretary-General Hou, please come in." Chu Xiuhong has been a secretary for several years, and his response is flexible, and he brewed the tea while talking, and he specially brewed new tea from Yiyang Shangqinglin for Hou Weidong.
Hou Weidong took a sip of tea and said, "Yiyang's tea is very fragrant." He asked again, "Is Governor Zhou free, I want to sit with him." ā
Zhou Changquan is in the leadership of the provincial government, and he is in charge of the most miscellaneous affairs, and there are hundreds of cadres in the main department and deputy department under the direct management of his subordinates, and anyone who wants to see Zhou Changquan has to make an appointment under normal circumstances, but Hou Weidong has a special relationship with Zhou Changquan, and he is the deputy secretary general who assists Zhou Changquan in his work, so naturally there is no need to make an appointment.
When he entered the door, Zhou Changquan was wearing glasses and reading documents, and when he looked up and saw Hou Weidong entering the door, he took off his glasses and said, "Weidong, here, come here, sit opposite me." ā
Hou Weidong sat opposite Zhou Changquan, and at this time, he seemed to have entered a working state, temporarily suppressing his mother Liu Guangfen's illness in his heart.
"I am a layman in the work of the province, if there is anything wrong, please criticize Governor Zhou more, the more you criticize, the greater my progress."
Zhou Changquan was already gray, and his eyes also had bags under his eyes, he was obviously older than when he was in Shazhou, he was in a good mood, and said: "Weidong, don't be modest in front of me, you have a few brushes, which was proved when Chengjin was the secretary of the county party committee, I know it in my heart, otherwise I wouldn't have changed generals on the spot, so I hurriedly asked you to come to the meeting." ā
Hou Weidong understood that he must have encountered something difficult, so he couldn't help but straighten his chest and said, "Old leader, thank you for your trust in me." ā
Zhou Changquan said: "Today's meeting is to solve the problem of urban villages in Lingxi, the problem of urban villages in Lingxi City is already very serious, the infrastructure of urban villages is seriously lagging behind, fire hazards are extremely prominent, sewage crossflows, garbage is scattered everywhere, this is not only related to the image of Lingxi City, but also responsible for the residents of urban villages." ā
When Hou Weidong heard this, he said secretly: "The construction of urban villages should be the business of the Lingxi Municipal Government, how could the governor Zhu Jianguo personally come forward, it seems that there is still the intention of pushing me to the forefront." He is now a very experienced leading cadre, and he has doubts in his heart, but he does not show them, but just listens attentively to Zhou Changquan's conversation.
"Governor Zhu has long wanted to make up his mind to solve the problem of urban villages, and this time, he is ready to promote the solution of the problem of urban villages throughout the province, focusing on Lingxi City, Tiezhou City and Shazhou City, and you will participate in this work throughout the process, and the provincial government has high hopes for you." Zhou Changquan said again: "My appointment to the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee has come down, and it will be sent out soon, and I didn't expect to be able to join the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, and I am very moved." At the same time, I also feel a lot of pressure, and our group of people must be responsible for the history of Lingxi. ā
Hou Weidong listened attentively to Zhou Changquan's words, and just said a short sentence: "The old leader deserves his name." ā
Zhou Changquan continued to sigh: "While you have energy, you can do things in a down-to-earth manner, be worthy of the provincial party committee, and make your life valuable." ā
He explained again: "In the near future, your work will be placed in the transformation of urban villages, and I will ask the research office to prepare some materials for you. The transformation of urban villages is a difficult task, and you must be mentally prepared. ā
There are urban villages of different scales in Lingxi urban area, Tiezhou urban area, and Shazhou urban area, and the province has been brewing for many years to solve the problem of urban villages, but there is no practical action.
Hou Weidong was a little confused in his heart, and said secretly: "Solving the problem of urban villages is a systematic project, and it does not need to be too urgent, what is more important is the investment of perfect policies and funds. ā
Zhou Changquan said: "Your tenure will come down soon, and you can work in the provincial government for a few years, as long as you have achievements, it will be easy to solve the main hall, and at that time, it will be easy for you to be in charge of the government or serve as a leader in the hall." ā
He stood up and encouraged, "The world is yours and ours, but in the end it's yours. You young people are full of vigor and prosperity, like the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning, and hope is pinned on you. ā
This passage is what Chairman Mao said when he met with students studying in the Soviet Union in Moscow, and it has long become the collective memory of the Chinese people, and Hou Weidong is also very familiar with it, but he only remembers the first three sentences, and the last few sentences are relatively vague. Zhou Changquan experienced that era, and these quotations were completely engraved in his mind, often blurted out.
There were still five minutes left before the meeting time, Chu Xiuhong walked over and took Zhou Changquan's notebook and water glass, and went to the provincial government conference room in advance.
Zhou Changquan and Hou Weidong walked towards the conference room while talking, and Hou Weidong subconsciously slower than Zhou Changquan by half a pace, which was conducive to conversation and gave Zhou Changquan proper respect.
At this moment, Hou Weidong had a feeling of time and space confusion, as if he had woken up and returned to his secretary era.
When he arrived at the lounge next to the conference room, Zhou Changquan went in to wait for Zhu Jianguo, and Hou Weidong directly entered the conference room.
In front of the seat sign of "Hou Weidong", there is a signature pen and a high-end notebook.
Chu Xiuhong walked over and said in a low voice: "Secretary-General, I have prepared a pen and paper." He was afraid that Hou Weidong would come in a hurry and didn't bring a notebook in his handbag, so he specially prepared a notebook and pen for him, so as not to look unserious during the meeting.
Hou Weidong nodded approvingly at Chu Xiuhong and said, "You are so careful, thank you." ā
He sat in his place, looked up, and saw Ning Yue on the opposite side nodding to him. Ning Yue smiled at him and waved his hand, which was regarded as a greeting
Ning Yue's side is Jiang Yulou of Tiezhou City, and Jiang Yulou's side is Li Di, the executive deputy mayor of Lingxi, and Li Di is surrounded by a middle-aged man he doesn't know.
Governor Zhu Jianguo, Vice Governor Zhou Changquan, and Xiong Dawei, member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and mayor of Lingxi City, were still empty.
The meeting was presided over by Vice Governor Zhou Changquan, and when Zhou Changquan began to speak, Hou Weidong began to wander, and his mind was full of Liu Guangfenhe's shadow.
When he was a child, his father Hou Yonggui was a soldier in the army and did not change careers, and Liu Guangfen took Hou Weiguo, Hou Xiaoying and Hou Weidong alone, Hou Weidong was the youngest and always slept next to Liu Guangfen. Every night, Liu Guangfen always had to read stories to Hou Weidong, and he always fell asleep to the sound of his mother's reading. To this day, Hou Weidong still remembers stories such as "The Story of the Big Locust Tree", "One Thousand and One Nights", and "PHS Roaming the Future".
At this time, Zhou Changquan's speech voice was like the background, and Hou Weidong's heart always sounded the distant and cordial reading voice of his mother Liu Guangfen.
The content of the transformation of urban villages is very stylized, and Hou Weidong, although he has been distracted, still listens to the main spirit clearly.
After an hour, the meeting adjourned.
Governor Zhu Jianguo personally attended the meeting, which gathered the mayors of several large cities, but only talked about the significance of transforming urban villages and assigned work tasks, but there were no specific steps and no leading organs.
Hou Weidong thought of Zhou Changquan's conversation before the meeting, and remembered all kinds of rumors about Xiong Dawei, so he felt that this meeting was really interesting. However, he has not been exposed to many things, and he has not understood the mysteries.
Ning Yue met Hou Weidong at the entrance of the venue and said, "Weidong, now you have entered the role. ā
Hou Weidong said: "As soon as I went to the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee to talk, I received a notice of a meeting from the General Office of the Provincial Government. ā
"Are you free in the evening, I invite you to dinner as a way of congratulations."
Hou Weidong declined the kindness this time and said, "Mayor Ning, I have something important today, and I am in a hurry to go back to Shazhou, and I will report to you another day." ā
"In the evening, Shuguang will also participate, he will go to the Central Organization Department to talk, and he will go to Qingjiang Province to serve as vice governor, and the three of us will have a good chat."
Hou Weidong still shook his head and said: "I do have something at home, I will give Mayor Ning and Shuguang the blame another day." ā
Ning Yue saw Hou Weidong's resolute attitude and said, "Since this is the case, let's talk about it another day." ā
Hou Weidong was afraid that Ning Yue would misunderstand, so he explained: "I will call Shuguang to apologize, and then find another time to apologize to Mayor Ning." ā
Ning Yue saw that Hou Weidong's expression was very solemn, and said with a smile: "Don't take it to heart, who doesn't have something to do, go and be busy with you." When you're done, I'm going to have another serious talk with you. ā
At this time, Xiong Dawei, member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and mayor of Lingxi, came over, greeted Ning Yue first, and then looked Hou Weidong up and down, and said boldly: "Hou Weidong, the youngest secretary of the county party committee in the province back then, has been famous for a long time. Tonight, the Lingxi Municipal Government is the host, and a glass of thin wine has been prepared, and the elder brother of Yulou must participate, and Mayor Ning and the secretary general must also attend. ā
Xiong Dawei is a well-known figure in Lingxi, very strong, Hou Weidong used to only see his glorious image on TV, and now Xiong Dawei has sent an invitation, which puts Hou Weidong in a dilemma.
He was worried about his mother and really didn't want to go to the dinner.
However, Xiong Dawei is a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, a very powerful figure, and he really can't be easily offended.
Go?
Or not?
