official journey ups and downs

Shen Tong and Yang Zhou were about the same age, chatted happily along the way, and returned to Shihe Town without knowing it.

It was already noon, and there was no one in the yard. It was estimated that everyone would be crowded into the cafeteria.Shen Tong went to Ma Guotao's office and knocked on the door, but there was no answer.Looking inside again, there was no one there, he should have gone out to eat, so Shen Tong went back to the dormitory, ready to eat in the cafeteria.

After a while, Liu Huiman appeared at the door of Shen Tong's dormitory, and said with a smile: "I just came back, let's go, Secretary Ma and the others are at my house, let me wait for you to come back and have dinner together."

Being invited by Ma Guotao to dinner is a very friendly signal.As an ordinary person in a unit, being able to enter the eyes of the leader shows that you are still useful.But once you get closer to the leader, you will be more divorced from the mass base, and more government officials seem to hate more while being envious and jealous.This kind of hatred is easily manifested in every detail of life and work.

Shen Tong was also unambiguous, called Yang Zhou and followed Liu Huiman to her house.There are three tile-roofed houses in Liu Huiman's house, but they are not big, and even a little crowded.One room was specially reserved for entertaining Ma Guotao and the others, and the other two rooms were living rooms.

Shen Tong raised the curtain, and saw Ma Guotao, Yan Dongxu, and Guo Yuandong, the three "iron triangle" laughing and laughing.Seeing Shen Tong coming in, Ma Guotao hurriedly waved his hands and motioned for him to sit down.

Yan Dongxu and Guo Yuandong also greeted each other with smiles, seeming to be friendlier than before.In fact, their friendship was not aimed at Shen Tong himself, but at his ex-girlfriend Xu Xia.To be more specific, it is Xu Xia's father, Xu Tingyuan.The last time Shen Tong and Xu Xia visited the county, it can be said that everyone in the officialdom has heard of this young man.

During this period of time, the entire Longnan City was frantically rumoring that Xu Tingyuan was going to be the secretary of the municipal party committee, but the last time Xu Xia met Shen Tong, she never mentioned it, but the head of the "civilian" organization gave Xu Tingyuan a reassurance early on. .Shen Tong was unwilling to take the initiative to care about the transfer of these high-level leaders, as if it had nothing to do with him right now, so Xu Xia didn't say anything, and he didn't ask.

In fact, the leader is sought after by his subordinates not because of his personal charm, but because of the power in his hands.Power is a very magical thing, once possessed it is very addictive.At the moment when the idea of ​​official standard is in power, who doesn't yearn for the feeling of "seeing all the mountains and small mountains at a glance"?Who wouldn't want the satisfaction of "Homecoming"?Who doesn't like the style of "thousands of flowers"?Perhaps, in a value system with a misplaced structure, human instinct can be infinitely magnified, either as a stepping stone or as a pillar.

Shen Tong sat down, Yan Dongxu had a cigarette in his mouth, his eyes were smoked by the rising smoke, he squinted his eyes, tilted his neck, opened seven or eight bottles of beer with a grin, and put two bottles in front of Shen Tong.He also said in his mouth: "Shen Tong, it's the first time I drink with you, don't lose face."

Shen Tong was also straightforward, and said: "It's better to be respectful than to obey, then my brother will have a drink with you today."

Guo Yuandong likes straightforward people the most, and hurriedly said: "Okay, I like this kind of personality. Come on, brother will accompany you for a while." After finishing speaking, he picked up the bottle and touched the bottle in front of Shen Tong, then stood upright. He picked up the bottle and drank it "gudong gudong". After a while, a bottle of wine was already drunk.

Seeing this, Shen Tong felt a little timid.At first glance, Guo Yuandong is a man who has been in the wine market for a long time. He drinks so boldly. If he doesn't know his identity, he is no different from a hooligan on the street.

Not to be outdone, Shen Tong raised the bottle and drank a bottle too.Ma Guotao on the side watched Shen Tong's performance silently, with a smile on his lips.

After drinking a bottle of wine, Shen Tong hiccupped, feeling something gushing out, in order not to make a fool of herself, she swallowed it abruptly.

After a while, the dishes came.Because this is eating at Liu Dalai's house, there is no need to pay attention to it like a restaurant.I saw some home-cooked dishes such as tofu, eggs, potatoes, etc., served in bowls of different sizes.

"Come, eat food, don't patronize drinking." Ma Guotao picked up the chopsticks and pointed to Shen Tong. "By the way, did you get it back?"

Shen Tong hurriedly took it from the window sill and handed it to Ma Guotao, who passed it to Yan Dongxu without even looking at it.

Yan Dongxu took it over and carefully searched for the key words.As the saying goes, look at the doorway if you understand it, and watch the excitement if you don’t understand it. This sentence is most appropriate for official documents.In a document, the biggest secret of word games is that it seems to say a lot of nonsense, but every word, every sentence, and even punctuation marks in it have been carefully considered.

After a while, Yan Dongxu threw the document aside, smiled and said to Ma Guotao: "Secretary Ma, you don't need to read this document. If you want to hear it, let me analyze it for you?"

Ma Guotao originally wanted to support this huge political achievement project by himself, but due to limited ability, he had to ask Yan Dongxu for advice again.Hearing what Yan Dongxu said, Ma Guotao hurried over and listened carefully to Yan Dongxu's analysis.

Yan Dongxu continued: "This year, at the three-level cadre meeting, Secretary Wu put the work of 'investment attraction' in a prominent position in the work report for the first time, and explained the purpose and significance of investment attraction in a long paragraph, and emphasized its importance. Especially visible , Secretary Wu attaches great importance to the work of attracting investment. From this point of view, if we can accurately identify the entry point, we will get strong support from Secretary Wu. In addition, County Mayor Ding is of course willing to have more companies come in. So on this point, the two should be compatible. If the two of them are compatible, our work should go smoothly."

Speaking of this, Ma Guotao couldn't sit still, showing a smile, and urged: "Go on."

"Let's look at this document again. The director of the China Merchants Bureau was kicked in the head by a donkey. He obviously didn't understand Secretary Wu's intentions. He actually found a copy of last year's implementation plan to fool him. This person is not politically conscious, so it is worth not to read this document. "

"If we want to attract investment, we must find out our own highlights and show our own characteristics. Only by being different can we have viability and become a banner of the county."

Ma Guotao frowned and thought carefully. He went through all the villages in the town in his head, but he didn't think of which village had any bright spots. There were only so many things in the past, how can there be any improvement?"

Shen Tong, who was sitting on the side, couldn't sit still. When Zhao Yitang was in power, he wanted to propose the idea of ​​developing agriculture, but he just came here, and the idea was immature, so he didn't put it forward.Although he discussed it with Liu Siming who was in charge of agriculture, Liu Siming was obviously not keen on this idea, which made Shen Tong a little depressed.

According to Shen Tong's understanding, Shihe Town is not poor and empty. People say that Shihe Town has "four treasures" - tofu from Nanwan, vinegar from Xiwan, Codonopsis ginseng from Qiaobei, and springs from Xiahe.The first two are manual workshops, while the latter two are natural resources. If they are developed, they should not be weaker than industries.

Now that Yan Dongxu suddenly brought up the highlights, Shen Tong was impatient to put forward his own ideas.Obviously, everyone didn't pay attention to him, they all stared at Yan Dongxu closely, waiting for his next words.

Yan Dongxu continued: "The so-called highlights are self-created, and the so-called characteristics are artificially processed. The two are not contradictory. It depends on how you combine them." After speaking, Yan Dongxu picked up the beer and took a sip.

When Ma Guotao picked up a peanut and was about to eat it, he heard Yan Dongxu talking unsatisfactorily, and paused by hanging his chopsticks in the air.

A strange smile appeared on Yan Dongxu's face, which whetted Ma Guotao's appetite.Guo Yuandong on the side couldn't stand it any longer, and hurriedly said: "If you have something to say, hurry up, don't squeeze toothpaste for a while, the listeners will be anxious to death."

"Come, come, drink and talk at the same time." Yan Dongxu mumbled, regardless of Guo Yuandong's urging.

After drinking another half bottle, Yan Dongxu blushed, obviously overwhelmed by alcohol, and continued: "If we say that we are engaged in attracting investment, it is basically useless. Who will come to invest in this poor place? Since I proposed this project, one reason is Catering to the rhythm of the county, the second is to provide political chips for you, Secretary Ma."

Ma Guotao sounds a little confused, and he talked about the features and highlights earlier, but now he is out of action.Ma Guotao said with some displeasure: "You just talk about the countermeasures."

Seeing that Ma Guotao was a little unhappy, Yan Dongxu finally expressed his thoughts: "Attracting investment is actually just a cover, and our real purpose is to tell the county that we have really done this, it's as simple as that As for how to achieve results, we simply packaged the enterprises and handicraft workshops in the town, and immediately became an enterprise, yes, the task has been completed."

The more Shen Tong listened, the more confused he became. Now that he finally understands it, he is a little angry. These people don't think about how to develop all day long, and they all focus on getting promoted and getting rich, and perfunctory their superiors.

Ma Guotao also heard the truth. Although there is a certain truth, doing so is risky. If the speculation is successful, hello, me, hello, everyone, once it fails, his fate will be the same as that of Zhao Yitang. Ma Guotao is caught in a dilemma.

The simple-minded Guo Yuandong gave a thumbs up, and said happily: "No wonder people say you are Yan Zhuge, you really have you, I admire, I really admire, come on, do it."

Shen Tong couldn't sit still anymore, stood up and said: "No, absolutely not."

Shen Tong's voice stunned everyone in the audience, they all stopped drinking and looked at this young college student.

Guo Yuandong said contemptuously: "College student, what do you think you have a brilliant idea? Can you recruit us a few? If you really recruit, I will kowtow to you."

After being ridiculed, Shen Tong was not afraid, looked at Ma Guotao and said: "Secretary Ma, don't forget that this issue has been unanimously passed at the party and government joint meeting. If we do this, we will have all the people in Shihe Town ah."

"Hey! I can't tell. Our college students are still concerned about the people and think about the people. Your coming to Shihe Town is just a springboard. Maybe you will be transferred back to the county next year. And all of us, aren't we all like you? We all want to jump out of here through a platform, is it wrong for us? Indeed, the approach is a bit despicable, do you have a better idea? Are you really recruiting companies?" Yan Dongxu said contemptuously, and also expressed his heart talk.

Shen Tong originally wanted to pour out all his thoughts, but when he saw Ma Guotao's expression, he felt a little desperate.Obviously Ma Guotao acquiesced in their actions by not opening his mouth, so he picked up the bottle and drank it all, and then said: "Okay, today I make an oath here that I must recruit an enterprise to Shihe Town. Resign immediately and leave."

Ma Guotao was also stunned by Shen Tong's words.Seeing Shen Tong full of vigor, Ma Guotao suddenly thought of the past ten years that he had been doing nothing, and he couldn't help feeling that he had been deeply infected by Shen Tong's spirit, so he also stood up and said: "Okay!" , Shen Tong, just based on your words, Ma Guotao, I will accompany you to the end."

Ma Guotao's abnormal behavior, Yan Dongxu and Guo Yuandong looked at each other, and ate vegetables alone.
