Official tough guy

Fei Chai accompanied Wei Fan's widow Ruan Dan and his son to send his ashes back to Beijing, and then lingered for a few days. Wei Fan's death was a great loss to the country's geological industry, so Fei Chai attended another funeral after returning to Beijing. This time the specifications were very high, and Fei Chai also took the opportunity to meet many high-level officials, mainly people from the Geology Department.Although Fei Chai is unwilling to do these things from the bottom of his heart, there is nothing he can do now. When Wei Fan dies, Fei Chai not only loses a good teacher, but also loses one of the most important theoretical supporters. He must re-acquaint Some people, so that the high-level people also have people who support them, otherwise the future work will increase a lot of difficulty.However, the result disappointed Fei Chai. Almost no one supported him. It seemed that everyone believed or was willing to believe in the theory of gradual leakage of geological energy.

Taking the relics Wei Fan gave him—some research materials, Fei Chai returned to Nanquan full of depression. He thought that regardless of the theoretical basis, at least Nanquan's geological disaster prevention work was still in full swing, but he was also very disappointed. Taking the city's joint geological disaster monitoring station itself as the ultimate goal, once the monitoring station is listed, it immediately relaxes, and the monitoring station itself has become an ordinary agency. The concept of an urban security agency composed of a group of geological science elites and a powerful logistics support agency is completely different. Doesn't this mean that they have raised a group of idlers?In fact, if you want to talk about idlers, not all of them are, and they are all selected from the government. They are keen on software, writing information, writing summaries, etc. In a word, they are all parallel imports!Can't make anything real.

Fei Chai saw it and was anxious, but there was nothing he could do. Although he held the title of deputy station chief of the monitoring station, people, money, and power were not in his hands. According to the division of labor, he was only in charge of technology.But it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. It is very easy to make rice, and it is even more difficult for others not to like it.For this reason, Fei Chai did a lot of work, worked hard, and finally persuaded Mayor Zhang, Cai Menglin and others, but this happened to be another false alarm. A 4.7-magnitude earthquake presided over by Fei Chai did not happen. Instead, a series of small earthquakes below magnitude [-] occurred continuously, which confirmed Professor Qin Zhong's theory of the gradual release of geological energy. As a result, Fei Chai's words were even more useless.

In fact, misreporting earthquakes is not uncommon. Who can guarantee half a hundred percent of their predictions are successful?The accuracy rate of Fei Chai's geological model system is already very high. This false alarm is also his first and only false alarm so far. It's just that this false alarm came at a bad time. Most people believed that Qin When Professor Zhong's theory of geological energy was gradually released, Fei Chai's theory and strategic forecast became unmainstream noise.

This false report became Fei Chai's Maicheng. Even when you returned home to persuade him, Youqian said: "Husband, don't be so stubborn, man, so many people's theories may not be as good as yours, a few Obey the majority."

Fei Chai can’t argue with You Qian, she’s just a silly pretty woman who doesn’t know that scientific matters have nothing to do with the minority. It’s true that the argument with a large number of people is more likely to be correct, but in the history of science, the truth of a few people There are many fallacies that subvert the majority. It can even be said that the constant challenge of the minority to the majority promotes the continuous progress of science.But Fei Chai didn't dare to imagine that he was such a great minority. He just thought that these people were actually a group of ostriches, who deliberately turned a blind eye to the possible dangers, and buried their heads in the sand. Heads are buried in.Originally, he still had the opportunity to fight for his reasons, but this time the false report made him lose his vitality and his speaking strength was greatly reduced.But at this time, the data detected by the geological model made him more and more restless.

Maybe... just maybe... there is a glimmer of hope.

Fei Chai can no longer count on Mayor Zhang. Mayor Zhang has always only had a working relationship with him, and he prefers to do political performance projects. He can't count on Cai Menglin either. Maybe she could before, at least she was obedient to him in the spring boudoir. Yes, but she is now in love with Lao Huang from the province, and the two of them no longer have the same opportunities as before.The only hope is Wu Fangge, the deputy mayor of Jinwu City whom he hasn't met much.

Although this person is also a layman in geology, Fei Chai feels that there is something in him that other officials do not have. Although he does not support Fei Chai's theory on the surface, according to Fei Chai's observations, the geology of Jinwu City The disaster prevention work is the most solid, which is inseparable from Wu Fangge's personal supervision.So Fei Chai took a risk. He called Wu Fangge, and he didn't care if he liked it or not. He said all the complaints and ideas, and then held his breath, waiting for bad luck.

As an official of Nanquan City, but complained to one of the main leaders of another city and asked for help, if this spread, life would definitely be difficult.

Wu Fangge patiently listened to him on the phone, pondered for a long time, and then said: "Well, you can come over sometime, and we can talk about it in detail. Keep a low profile when you come."

Fei Chai was like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw, he agreed without thinking, asked for leave the next day, and drove to Jinwu by himself.

After arriving in Jinwu, Wu Fangge arranged for him to stay in the Katyusha Hotel - it is said that this is Wu Fangge's private property - and it turned out to be a big corrupt official.But Fei Chai doesn't care about that much now, as long as he can help him, he is saving countless lives that may be lost in the future. As long as he can save people, even if he makes a deal with the devil, Fei Chai will not hesitate.As much as he's been trying to be a bureaucrat, that's not what's in his bones.

In the afternoon, I took a break at the hotel. In the evening, Wu Fangge invited him to dinner. Fei Chai ate very little and talked a lot. After drinking a few drinks, he said bluntly: "Mayor Wu, I said that in the short term, the Nanquan area will A major earthquake may occur, do you believe it? I still can't come up with a [-]% theoretical basis!"

Generally, as a leader, when encountering this kind of situation, he will usually pass it by and not say any tendentious opinions. Fei Chai has been in the officialdom for these years, so he understands the truth. The reason why he said this is not for a certain This kind of support is more of a psychological pressure relief.But the result was beyond his expectation. Wu Fangge let out a long breath, and said two words slowly and firmly, "I believe it."

He said 'I believe'?This made Fei Chai a little unable to believe his ears. He stared wide-eyed and looked at Wu Fangge. Wu Fangge knew his confusion, so he smiled and said, "You may have heard of it. I have been a Soldiers, I have fought in wars. To be honest, my military quality is very average. The reason why I survived is because of my intuition. I can always sense danger. So I survived. But recently, I have always been distracted Uncertain, worried about what will happen. It is said that in this peaceful age, individuals are nothing more than car accidents, accidents, crimes, etc. But this time the feeling is really bad. I always feel that many people will die, so only one person will be left. A possibility, a natural disaster."

Fei Chai watched Wu Fangge for a while, then suddenly laughed, which was very rude.Wu Fangge let him laugh tolerantly, and waited until he finished laughing before saying, "Do you think it's funny that you are full of knowledge, but in the end you need a guy with strange powers to support you?"

Fei Chai looked up at him seriously and said, "Yes." Then he laughed.

Wu Fangge also smiled and said, "I like you."

Fei Chai said: "Don't, I don't have that hobby." After finishing speaking, both of them laughed presumptuously.

After laughing enough, Fei Chai asked again: "Then Mayor Wu, you know my difficulties, and I want to know how you can help me."

Wu Fangge said: "Of course I have a solution, but it may not be perfect."

Fei Chai said, "I would like to hear the details."

Wu Fangge said: "First of all, of course it is to use my influence in the geological disaster prevention leading group, but you also know that this influence is limited. The official ranks of the team members are the same as mine, and we can't control anyone else. , so I can only talk, but I don’t know how much it will work.”

Fei Chai said, "It's the same as if you didn't say it."

Wu Fangge said: "So, then... If you are interested, just leave Nanquan and come to help me. First, you can second me. If you don't cooperate well, you can get together and break up later. If you cooperate well, you might as well stay. Exit. I understand your situation, your wife has been laid off and stayed at home for many years, and this time it can be resolved, the office is full of idlers, and I don't care if she is one more."

Fei Chai was taken aback by his words, which was too generous.He was stunned for a while before he said: "But...but you Jinwu don't have the establishment of a local supervisory bureau."

"No." Wu Fangge said, "Currently we only have a temporary agency to deal with possible geological disasters and natural disasters, and there is still a lack of a director. The preparation project of the Land Supervision Bureau has not yet been approved, but you Don't worry, as long as I'm still here, you'll have everything you want. How about it? Think about it?"

Fei Chai really couldn't make up his mind for a while. Although he suffered some setbacks in the Nanquan officialdom recently, after all, he has been in business for many years, and the house, car and son are well settled, but if he moves...

Wu Fangge saw his thoughts again, so he said: "Don't worry, don't worry, I know you have difficulties. It's not easy for people to manage their own lives well. Once they are stable, they don't want to be disrupted. I won't rush you, just Just to remind you, to do great things, it is very important to have a good partner. I am in Jinwu, and you are in Nanquan. I just want to help you, but it is difficult to use my strength. Even if I do, it is inevitable to be rumored. You and I are not easy to mix, why don't you think about it first?"

What he said was a matter, how could Fei Chai not understand?It's just that this is indeed a big decision, even if no one wants to make a decision within a few minutes, there must be some time to think about it.Fortunately, Wu Fangge understood very well, so after saying this, he didn't mention it again, but only talked about the romantic affairs, and asked him if he wanted to arrange some programs tonight.It’s okay if I don’t mention it, Fei Chai really remembered it when I mentioned it, he’s been very nervous recently, not to mention messing around outside, even with You Qian, he didn’t enjoy himself very often, but he did. Obligation.But Wu Fangge said so, he had to be polite, not to mention these things, sometimes it was just a joke, if anyone took it seriously, it would only be an embarrassment for both parties.
