official journey ups and downs

In the huge restaurant on the first floor of Dongquan Hotel, Mayor Li Changkui and County Party Secretary Wu Jiangkai chatted over tea.Although it was snowing heavily outside, the house was exceptionally warm. Wu Jiangkai's face was unusually red due to the heat, or the lack of attention from Secretary Qiao of the Provincial Party Committee. If you looked closely, you could even see the hairline oozing from his forehead. There was a circle of sweat.

Both are people who are well versed in official ways, so both of them tacitly chose to remain silent on the subtle actions of Secretary Qiao of the Provincial Party Committee, cleverly avoiding this sensitive topic.Obviously, Secretary Qiao of the provincial party committee was not interested in either of them, more or less due to the vice governor Qiu Zhiguo.

Although Wu Jiangkai and Li Changkui served the Vice Governor Qiu Zhiguo together, their identities are completely different.Li Changkui is a leading cadre single-handedly promoted by Qiu Zhiguo, while Wu Jiangkai is the secretary who follows Qiu Zhiguo. There is a world of difference between the two. Therefore, no matter how good their relationship is, Wu Jiangkai always has a sense of awe towards Li Changkui, which seems a bit restrained.

Li Changkui turned the blue-and-white porcelain teacup indifferently, brought it to his mouth and took a sip, and said, "Comrade Xu Tingyuan invited me to have a gathering in Zhaobei City tonight. If you have nothing to do, come with me."

At this moment, Wu Jiangkai was completely focused on Secretary Qiao of the Provincial Party Committee who had just gone upstairs. When asked by Li Changkui, Wu Jiangkai was stunned for a moment, and said, "It's all up to Mayor Li's arrangement."

"Okay, He Guoguang will contact you at that time." Li Changkui was obviously a little distracted, his face was a little tired, and his eyes that were bright and bright in the past seemed a little dull. He sighed, stood up on the table and chair and said: "I'm a little tired , Arrange a room for me to rest, Secretary Qiao and the others will come out and call me later."

After sending Li Changkui upstairs, Wu Jiangkai also felt that something was wrong with him today.After thinking about it, Wu Jiangkai thought that Li Changkui was unhappy because Secretary Qiao of the Provincial Party Committee interviewed Secretary Wang Jicheng of the Municipal Party Committee alone, but the real reason was caused by the name "Li Tiedan".

In the presidential suite on the fifth floor, Qiao Renfu, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, and Wang Jicheng, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, were talking.

Qiao Renfu has a standard face with Chinese characters, thick eyebrows, big eyes, a lion's mouth and a tiger nose, and his thick hair is combed back one by one. There is a little tenderness in those deep eyes, but also a fearsome fear. The cold light and strong aura give people a sense of oppression, which makes Wang Jicheng, who has experienced many battles, feel a little restrained.

"Is the democratic recommendation in each county and city over?" Qiao Renfu said casually.

Unexpectedly, Secretary Qiao still cared about this in his busy schedule. Wang Jicheng put on an appearance of reporting work, and said carefully: "Thanks to Secretary Qiao for your concern, 8 of the 6 counties and urban areas have been completed, and it is estimated that they will all be completed by the end of this month. .”

Qiao Renfu crossed his legs, leaned on the sofa and said, "I don't object to your democratic recommendation, and I must support it vigorously. Anything that is beneficial to the future of the party and the country, the development of society and the economy, and the interests of the people , we should persevere, show courage and courage, and equip the party and the country with excellent, qualified, and competent reserve leading cadres, which is exactly what I want to see."

After being praised by Qiao Renfu, Wang Jicheng did not dare to show his expression, but said modestly: "I have strictly followed the relevant regulations and standards of the provincial party committee and provincial government for the selection and allocation of reserve leading cadres this time, to ensure that every leading cadre selected can stand the test of time." Stand the test of wind and rain and the test of history."

"Really?" Qiao Renfu frowned, staring at Wang Jicheng with two cold lights from his deep eyes, full of distrust.

Asked by Qiao Renfu, Wang Jicheng's heart tightened. He was a little timid in the face of the secretary of the provincial party committee who was younger than himself. He did not dare to raise his head. He stared at the dragon and phoenix pattern on the coffee table and said, "Secretary Qiao, don't worry, I will be there soon. I still understand the party's discipline and national laws, no matter what, I will stand on the last post and give the people of Longnan a satisfactory explanation."

"That's good. You can employ people in any way. You can even promote some people with special talents, but you must be alert to the high-voltage wires and never touch them. I also want you to retire with dignity." Qiao Renfu said earnestly.

Wang Jicheng understood and said gratefully: "Thank you, Secretary Qiao, for reminding me. I will definitely follow the instructions."

Qiao Renfu stood up and said, "I'm not going around in circles anymore. I can understand that you arrange some of your own people before you leave office, but you have to have a degree. Recently, the provincial party committee and the provincial government have reported letters about you like a snowflake, especially those who reflect You are too selfish in employing people, I will suppress this matter for you, you can do it yourself."

Wang Jicheng's legs were trembling constantly, and he wiped off the cold sweat from his forehead with his hands, and said, "Thank you, Secretary Qiao, for your good intentions. I am ashamed of your cultivation and trust."

Qiao Renfu walked up to Wang Jicheng, patted his shoulder and said, "Old Wang, you have devoted your whole life to our party and country, and to the development of Longnan City. For a great hero and good leader like you , Good cadre, I have reasons to fight against all arguments, to fight with reason, to give you a hand at a critical moment, to give you a hand in a crisis, to protect you, love you, and support you with sincerity and comfort."

Wang Jicheng was already in tears, got up hurriedly and sighed: "Secretary Qiao, don't say it anymore. I forgot the party spirit at a critical moment, violated the principles, and deviated from the public opinion. I accept any punishment."

Qiao Renfu waved his hand and said with a smile: "I want to punish you, will I still tell you this in person? Don't worry, you have to appease the officials below, take care of their emotions, and don't hurt their hearts. "

Wang Jicheng was overwhelmed with gratitude for Qiao Renfu's preference, and seemed to have touched a sensitive nerve, so he squatted on the ground and cried loudly like a child.

Qiao Renfu walked to the side and comforted him: "Old Wang, regardless of the relationship between superiors and subordinates, we are old friends, and we can be regarded as old friends. I have already considered your affairs for you. After you retire next year, I want you to come to the "Dongjiang Frontier" as the editor-in-chief, what do you think?"

Wang Jicheng stopped crying immediately, and was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a while.You must know that "Dongjiang Frontier" is an internal publication of Dongjiang Province. What is published on it is either the important discussions of experts and scholars on Dongjiang's economic development, or the unique insights and innovative models of government officials on local economic development. It is not important, the most important thing Yes, Qiao Renfu attaches great importance to "Dongjiang Frontier", he must read almost every issue, and makes important comments on some articles he thinks are wonderful, and even often writes and publishes articles on it, which shows how much he attaches importance to this publication.

From the perspective of the outside world, "Dongjiang Frontier" is no different from "Dongjiang Daily". They both reflect the development track of Dongjiang in a certain historical period, but it is by no means so simple.
