Career in Power - Chapter [-]: Arrangements for Gift Giving

Lin Zhijie's words are not only intended to educate, but also to remind.

After all, the current general environment is like this, and society is a society of human relationships, so these human etiquettes are even more indispensable.

Liang Hongtao's gift to Lu Yan was naturally for the purpose of building relationships.For the same reason, Lu Yan also needs to build relationships now, and also needs to make some relationships closer, so he also needs to give gifts.

This year is Lu Yan's first New Year's Eve since he went to Hongchuan to take a temporary position. He came back from vacation at this time a year ago, which happens to be the best time to give gifts and see people.In this regard, Lin Zhijie, who has been immersed in the officialdom for decades, is naturally more experienced than him. It was announced at the dinner table that Lu Yan's main task this weekend was to give gifts.

Hearing Lin Zhijie's words, Lu Yan felt a little regretful that he was going home this weekend. Not only did he want to help buy new year's goods for the two families, but it happened to be a young man who was arrested and wanted to give gifts. Losing business.To be honest, like most young people, Lu Yan was very disgusted with giving gifts.

And like Lin Zhijie, they have been in the officialdom all their lives, and they have seen these ways of the officialdom clearly, so they feel that there is nothing abnormal in entertaining guests and giving gifts when maintaining relationships.Even in these years, they have seen a lot and practiced a lot, and they have summed up a lot of experience in gift giving.

For young people like Lu Yan who have just stepped into official careers, giving gifts is a matter of embarrassment.Sometimes it's not just as simple as not being able to save face, it's a kind of fear in my heart about this matter, a kind of fear of strange things, a kind of fear of the unknown ending.

Because they don't know how to give gifts, and they don't know what the real meaning of gift giving is.Moreover, the recipients of gifts are usually their superiors or elders. Usually, there is a kind of fear in front of these people. At this time, if you let yourself give gifts, you will not be able to overcome your inner fear.

There is another important reason, that is, whether these superiors or elders, the camouflage is too deep on weekdays.As an official or a leader, most of them appear in front of their subordinates with a dignified image on weekdays, so this also causes subordinates to be a little unsure if they want to give gifts. It will make them feel disgusted.

In fact, this is precisely the immaturity of young people. You will know it when Lin Zhijie and his age and experience.There is no one in the world who doesn't like other people giving gifts, and there is always a reason not to hit the smiling face.Especially this kind of human etiquette during the holidays, most people think it is normal, so they will naturally accept it.

Unless the amount of the gift is particularly large, or the gift is too expensive, or when the giver knows that the gift giver has other intentions, the recipient will definitely weigh in his heart whether to accept the gift or not.

However, among the people Lin Zhijie asked Lu Yan to visit this time, they would definitely not be involved in such a problem.

After lunch, Lin Xiaoyun and Cui Xiaoying both went to work, Xia Qiu was busy cleaning up the dishes, Lin Zhijie, a workaholic, rarely went to work, and he and Lu Yan sorted out the people who were going to visit this weekend at home.

First of all, it was confirmed that Yu Yongdong, member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Secretary General of the Provincial Party Committee, was going to visit.Needless to say anything else, just because he used to be Lu Yan's old leader, and he also visited Lu Yan when he got married, Lu Yan had to visit him.One is to express my gratitude to him, and the other is to further narrow the relationship between the two. It won't take long for this relationship to become cold again.

Next is Wang Haibo, member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection.This person also served as Lu Yan's leader for a period of time. Although he was not a direct leader, Lu Yan worked under his hands after all.Although Wang Haibo was not present at Lu Yan's wedding, he entrusted his secretary to send a congratulatory gift, and the relationship between Wang Haibo and Lin Zhijie is also very good. Nowadays, for such a big leader, as long as there is a little relationship, they can be involved They won't give up, let alone in a situation like Lu Yan's, they should pay a visit.

There is also Zhang Guojing, member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and secretary of the Wucheng Party Committee.It stands to reason that Lu Yan is currently working on the territory of Wucheng City, and Zhang Guojing is still Lu Yan's godfather, so he should visit him both emotionally and rationally.But Xia Qiu strongly opposed Lu Yan's visit to him, so he had no choice but to let it go.

Ma Xiaoming, deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, was also the leader of the inspection office of the provincial party committee at that time, and Lu Yan also had a lot of contact with him in his work.Moreover, this person is also a very important role in Xizhou Province. It is also a good opportunity to visit him during the Chinese New Year.

These are leaders at the level of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee.As for Xu Richeng, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, it is also necessary to visit.However, a leader of his level will definitely not lack anything. When Lu Yan visits him, it should be more of a courtesy visit. If he wants to take such a valuable gift, he will Falling behind.

Governor Qian Yunchang said that he has something to do with Lu Yan. Although he didn't attend Lu Yan's wedding, he met Lu Yan alone several times.And in the last press conference, it was rare to praise Lu Yan after Xu Richeng, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee. Visiting him again during the Chinese New Year will show that Lu Yan is a grateful person.

Then there are department-level cadres like Gao Jia and Wei Bangkun.He helped his son-in-law sort out the relationship, but it really shocked Lin Zhijie too.

To be honest, Lin Zhijie is now in a high position at the deputy ministerial level, and he is also the chief prosecutor of the Provincial High Procuratorate. If it is really about the relationship, he is indeed not as tough as Lu Yan.

Although he saw his son-in-law's face during the last marriage, Lin Zhijie still didn't know what the relationship between Lu Yan and these people was.Hearing what he said at this time, Lin Zhijie felt secretly surprised.

However, since the son-in-law has so many and such strong relationships, Lin Zhijie must not let these relationships go to waste.Lin Zhijie, who has spent his whole life in this Vanity Fair, knows best how much energy these relationships mean.

Once the person to be visited is determined, the gift during the visit is not what Lu Yan has to worry about. Naturally, Lin Zhijie can control the timing very well in this regard.And Lin Zhijie himself did not lack these things, and he didn't need Lu Yan to bother.

According to Lin Zhijie's arrangement, the standard for giving gifts during visits is from high to low, and the gifts become more and more expensive.

Lin Zhijie's arrangement naturally has his reasons. Cadres at the department level are considered high-ranking cadres, but their material enjoyment is more than 01:30 points worse than that of deputy provincial-level cadres who are one step away. But these people His vision is not low, so when giving gifts, they should be more expensive.

As for the three leaders at the Standing Committee level of the Provincial Party Committee, it is too expensive to give them gifts. People will think that you are a young man who has only been working for a few years. How did you get the money for such an expensive gift?Giving gifts like this will not only fail to achieve its due effect, but will be self-defeating.However, it is not good to give a gift that is too light, and it seems that you do not pay enough attention to others, which will also make others think of you.

The best thing to do is Xu Richeng and Qian Yunchang. For these two bigwigs from Xizhou Province, go and visit.It reflects more of your own heart, so you should be more considerate when giving gifts.

According to this idea, what Lin Zhijie prepared for Gao Jia and his department-level cadres was a gift certificate of a famous suit brand. With this gift certificate, he could go to the designated counters of several major shopping malls in Wucheng City to choose a suit of his choice.Of course, the grade of this suit is definitely not very low, and the average working class in Wucheng City may be able to buy this suit with a year's salary.Given such an expensive gift, Lin Zhijie wasn't worried that these people would think so because of Lu Yan's sending such an expensive gift.Because Lu Yan's father-in-law is him, Lin Zhijie and these people must know that with such an old father-in-law, it is very appropriate to give such a generous gift.

A kit of Cordyceps Oral Liquid was prepared for the three leaders of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee.In fact, Lin Zhijie must know that these people do not lack such things as caterpillar fungus.But whether you lack it is your business, and whether I give it or not is my business.Moreover, when an official reaches a certain level, he pays special attention to his own body, so these people attach great importance to health care.Cordyceps has been the most popular health care product in China in the past few years. Sending such things fully reflects the concern for them.Moreover, the Cordyceps oral liquid is also convenient to take, and the price of a set is only around 8000 yuan, which is also within an acceptable range.

Xu Richeng and Qian Yunchang's gifts were carefully considered.

Lin Zhijie's arrangement was to give Xu Richeng a pot of his favorite bonsai.Lu Yan may not know about Xu Richeng's love for bonsai, but how could a leading cadre like Lin Zhijie not know about it?In fact, Xu Richeng is not short of these things. When others give Xu Richeng a bonsai, he may think that this guy is trying to please me, but when Lu Yan gives him a bonsai, Xu Richeng will definitely think that this young man is a caring person.

The gift to Qian Yunchang was an ore specimen from the Jieling Gold Mine. This is a piece of ore the size of a football with a very peculiar shape, like an eagle flying with wings spread.Because it is gold ore, the eagle's body still has a little golden light shining.

This ore specimen was discovered by Professor Zhang and the others at the Jieling Gold Mine. Lu Yan thought it had a strange shape, so he took it back and put it at home.After Lin Zhijie discovered it, he took it to an antique shop and asked the workers to add a base to the stone, making it look more like a work of art.

Giving this gift to Qian Yunchang is also very particular. The development of the Jieling Gold Mine will definitely bring about earth-shaking changes in Sidaogou Town, a poor town known as the "Scar of Xizhou". One of the achievements of this governor, the implication of giving this gift is naturally self-evident.

All afternoon, Lin Zhijie and Lu Yan, Weng and his son-in-law were planning to give gifts.But most of the time, it was Lin Zhijie who arranged for Lu Yan to give gifts based on Lu Yan's social relationship and his own experience.

With a veteran official like Lin Zhijie analyzing the pros and cons and making suggestions for him, Lu Yan gradually accepted the gift giving a lot.Now the list of people who will visit and give gifts has been determined, and Lin Zhijie has prepared everyone's gifts for Lu Yan.The next thing is to rely on Lu Yan to send out these gifts and express his heart.

Lu Yan smiled and said that giving gifts to these leaders was a torment for himself, but Lin Zhijie solemnly corrected that it was a kind of exercise for him.
