Chapter Six(1/3)
I didn't expect Lin Yu to say such a sentence out of the blue, and I was pleasantly surprised. "Pure Text First Release" However, at this time, I was more curious than surprised, because I couldn't imagine how this matter could turn into a good thing.
"Sister, please tell me, how can this be a good thing?" I asked her immediately.
But she immediately fell into deep thought again, "Wait a minute, I'll think about it again."
So I waited and ate the food alone, not wanting to disturb her train of thought.
After a while, she smiled at me and said, "This matter is risky..."
I was startled for a moment, "Sister, tell me first and let me listen."
She said: "You should write a specialized report on this matter and submit it directly to Governor Wang... Feng Xiao, do you understand what I mean?"
After hearing what she said, I suddenly understood, "Sister, what do you mean, let's transfer the conflict to the province, to Governor Wang?" [
She nodded and said: "You write a briefing and then report it directly to Governor Wang. If he takes care of it, your problem will be solved. If he ignores it and puts your briefing aside, then if anything happens in the future,
If something goes wrong, it will be his responsibility."
I was very embarrassed, "But, this will make him hate me even more, and I have to report this matter to Secretary Rong, right? What if she doesn't agree?"
She shook her head and said: "First, she will definitely agree, because you have passed the conflict to her, and she is eager to hand it over. Second, if she really doesn't agree, you can definitely pass it through the government
The standing meeting will study the situation and formulate the briefing materials, and then submit them. As the acting mayor, you have full power to do so, and it is also a normal channel for you to do so. As the secretary of the municipal party committee, she will not object too much. If I were
In her case, the most likely way is to turn a blind eye or close one's eyes."
I still felt that this was not good, but for a while I didn't know what was wrong. I went to toast her and then thought about this problem while eating.
After a while, I had some ideas in my mind, so I thought while talking: "Sister, I don't think this is good. I have already reported this matter to Secretary Rong, and she has also reported it to me.
I issued clear instructions. Under such circumstances, it might not be good for me to make trouble, and if I really do that, Secretary Rong will definitely understand my intention. In official circles, people from below are the ones who take the place of those above.
The leader shared the worries and did not move the conflict upward. If I do this, I may cause trouble. Sister, I understand what you mean, but I feel that this does not seem to be the best opportunity."
Of course I understand Lin Yu's thoughts. She is still trying to remove Governor Wang and then let Governor Huang take over. But I have always felt that this is not that simple. A person with the level and position of Governor Wang
, it is not easy to reach such a level and position, but it is not that simple to get down. Of course, my words are rather vague, and I believe Lin Yu can understand what I mean.
She nodded, "I understand what you mean. It's certainly not an easy task to bring him down, but if he keeps making mistakes, it will accumulate to a big problem. He is not young anymore, and maybe the higher-ups will do it because of this.
Consider him taking a back seat."
Her words immediately reminded me of what the wrong feeling in my heart was just now. I hurriedly said: "Sister, I think it's best not to break the existing balance.
Whether it is Governor Wang or Governor Huang, they are both people with deep backgrounds. Once the existing balance is broken, not only will their backgrounds be very passive, but Governor Huang himself may not be able to accept it.
Have you forgotten what happened last time? It was because the balance was broken that Governor Huang wanted to quit. On the surface, it seemed that he was doing it for Udon Mei, but I think the most fundamental reason came from
The pressure on him. And, sister, have you ever thought about it? Since I can give this matter to my deputy, Governor Wang can also give it to Governor Huang. For Governor Wang, he cannot
I don't know the weight of this matter in my heart, so I think it is absolutely inevitable that he will give it to Governor Huang. If that is really the case, wouldn't it be like shooting ourselves in the foot?"
She was startled for a moment, "I didn't expect this. Feng Xiao, your reminder is true. Forget it, let's maintain the status quo."
I immediately breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, in my heart, I didn’t want to involve myself too deeply in the high-level struggle, but I had to find a reasonable reason to convince Lin Yu? Now, she was finally convinced by me
After being convinced, my heart suddenly became relaxed.
To be honest, I don't really like Lin Yu's way of doing things. In my opinion, doing such actions behind the scenes is a conspiracy and not the behavior of a gentleman. But after all, Lin Yu and I have such a relationship, and
Her position is there, so I can't show my dissatisfaction in front of her.
I was thinking, maybe women are like this, they are used to taking shortcuts. In fact, engaging in conspiracy is also a way of taking shortcuts.
I asked her: "Sister, do you mean that I won't care about this matter?"
She nodded, "At present, maintaining stability and making a smooth transition are what you need to do most. There won't be any immediate problems with raising funds. As long as conflicts don't happen and don't intensify for the time being, then don't worry about it."
But I said very worriedly: "Sister, the problem is that some people have not received the recent interest, which means that there is a problem with the capital chain of this company." [
She said: "Or this way, you can report it directly to Secretary Fang. After you report it, we will see what Secretary Fang says. But you must pay attention to the meaning of every word Secretary Fang says to you. In other words, if Secretary Fang
If you think this matter is difficult to handle, you must retreat cleanly and don't let him have any difficulties. Do you understand what I mean?"
I already understand. What she means is that if Secretary Fang becomes unhappy when I go to report this matter, then I will immediately and implicitly express that I have never gone to him to talk to him.
What this means is that embarrassing the leader is the biggest taboo for anyone who is a subordinate. In fact, she expressed the same idea as Chang Bailing.
I smiled bitterly and said, "Sister, the question is, will Secretary Fang meet me? Also, it's the Spring Festival. If I go to see him, I have to bring him something, right? He is the secretary of the provincial party committee, and I am very interested in him."
He doesn’t understand at all that if he gives this thing, he may be criticized or even leave a bad impression on him, but if he gives something randomly, he may not be happy.”
She nodded, "That's true. But I went to pay him New Year's greetings before the Spring Festival. I am a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, so it is necessary to pay him New Year's greetings. There are work-related reasons for this. I was in trouble for a long time when I went.
Later, I brought him a basket of grapefruits. He accepted it happily. As far as I know, Secretary Fang is a very honest person. He doesn't like others to give him expensive things, but he really likes his subordinates to report to him.
Work. I think you should contact his secretary first. If Secretary Fang wants you to report to his office, then you don’t need to bring anything. If he invites you to his home, then you
Just do it as you see fit. You are the mayor now, so you can make your own decisions on such matters. To be honest, I don’t know what to do about this matter."
I smiled bitterly and said: "I'll think about it again. To be honest, I really don't dare to see him. Let's talk about it again. I'll think about it again. I still have to weigh this matter."
She sighed and said: "Feng Xiao, I understand what you are thinking. The main reason is that you are too idealistic in your heart. You always think that this matter may cause huge losses to the people, so you always think
I can’t let it go. But I think it’s a rare quality for a person to be idealistic and to be conscientious as an official, so I support you.”
I was secretly wondering: there was such a huge contrast in the concepts she expressed in her previous words. In the previous words, she was obviously focused on conspiracy, but what she said just now was so frank. Perhaps, she
People are inherently conflicted.
I thought about it again, in fact, each of us lives in contradictions, desires and ideals, conscience and selfish desires, conspiracy and self-blame... All of these are surrounding our daily lives at any time.
.Especially for people in official circles, there are more and more such contradictions, and they often trouble our souls.
I smiled bitterly and said: "Sister, sometimes I feel that I am really stupid. Why can others be used to seeing those things, but I can't?"
She smiled and said: "Maybe you will get used to it gradually. However, whether you are used to it or not, this is everyone's behavior. Most of today's officials are too insensitive. Maybe they will
It is precisely because of your disapproval that Secretary Fang looks at you with admiration. Of course, this may also involve you taking some risks. But from my understanding of Secretary Fang, the risk of you doing that should not be big.
This is also one of the reasons why I support you. Feng Xiao, to be honest, although you grew up under my promotion, I think you are a good person, so I never promoted me because of personal relationships.
If you feel any guilt, compared with many other officials, you are not greedy and have a conscience as an official. Based on these two things, many people are not as good as you."
Her words made me feel a little embarrassed immediately, "Sister..."
She raised her glass to me and said, "Come here, sister, I want to toast you. Don't feel embarrassed. What I said is the truth. So, don't have any inferiority complex and do your job boldly."
I didn’t expect that she was so perceptive, because I have an inferiority complex in my heart that only I know best. I have always felt in my heart that I am not a person suitable for officialdom, because I don’t like to socialize, except for Huang Sheng
Except for Chang He and Lin Yu, I generally don’t like to visit leaders, and I’m afraid of meeting them from the bottom of my heart. Ultimately, this is attributable to my inner inferiority complex.
It is precisely because of my low self-esteem that I work extra hard and pursue perfection. Many times, when I am eating, riding in the car, and many times before going to bed, I will think about my work.
Do you still have any questions or need to think about something further?
Inferiority is always accompanied by extreme self-esteem. Therefore, I don’t want big problems or big flaws in my work.
I had always thought that I had hidden these situations deeply and that others would not know about them. But I didn’t expect that Lin Yu would actually observe them. I thought maybe this was because we were too familiar with each other.
Now, since she has talked to me to this extent in person, I will no longer hide it. I said: "Sister, I am always worried that if I do not do my job well, I will disappoint you and Governor Huang, and I will also be criticized.
Others gossip. Therefore, I have always felt that I am under a lot of pressure. But it’s okay to have such pressure, because under such pressure, I try my best to do everything well and win the trust of the people.
Word of mouth.”
She smiled and said: "Pressure is only one aspect, the more important thing is that you are a very conscientious person."
At this time, I suddenly had a doubt in my heart: She seems to have mentioned the word "conscience" in front of me more than once tonight. Is she doubting my loyalty to her? Or is she doubting my loyalty to her?
Yes, just now I persuaded her not to use this matter to cause trouble for Governor Wang, so she thought it was because I was unwilling to take responsibility?
No, Lin Yu will not doubt my loyalty so easily. What is our relationship? How can she understand what kind of person I am? I immediately thought like this.
However, when a person has doubts in his heart, he will always feel uneasy because of it. Even if he convinces himself that the situation is impossible, the uneasiness can at best be calmed down a little.
Jealousy and suspicion are all human nature. Once such emotions arise, it is difficult to return to normal unless they are replaced by other emotions. For example, now, I suddenly find myself needing Lin Yu to express her feelings to me clearly.
An attitude of trust towards me.
Of course, I couldn't ask her directly.
I raised my glass to her, "Sister, what do you think conscience is?"
She was startled for a moment, "It's very simple, it's responsibility. As the mayor, you should fulfill your responsibilities as the mayor, serve the people, and benefit the people. As the organization minister, I should try my best to support the party's election.
Good cadre. It's that simple. But now, such a simple thing has become not simple. Many people find it difficult to do such a simple thing, so conscience is particularly rare."
I immediately felt relieved: I had indeed been too worried just now. I smiled and said, "Sister, even you and I can only do our best to the maximum extent."
She nodded, "Yes. That's why I suggest you report this matter to Secretary Fang. There are too few officials with conscience now, and maybe you will be taken more seriously by Secretary Fang because of this. Judging from my understanding of Secretary Fang
, I think you should take a gamble on this. Of course, as the secretary of the provincial party committee, it is difficult for us to truly understand his true inner thoughts. On the one hand, he looks at the problem from a different starting point. He must look at the overall situation of the province.
Think about the problem. On the other hand, he sees the problem from a different height, and the chess game in his mind contains more chess pieces. In addition, he has to measure many things on a national scale."
I said, "Sister, after listening to what you said, I think I really should go find him. Not to mention other things, as the secretary of the provincial party committee, he definitely doesn't want to see any major incidents in his jurisdiction.
Trouble. I discovered such a problem and reported it to him, because I couldn't solve such a problem. This is my responsibility. As for whether others can handle it or not, that is his business."
She frowned and said: "Feng Xiao, your habit of acting on impulse has come out again. The principle is what you said, but you still have to be as careful as possible when doing it. If such things were as simple as you think, your Secretary Rong would have done it long ago.
If you do that, you should know in your heart that your relationship with Rongji is better than your relationship with Secretary Fang."
