Lu Yiwei nodded in agreement. "He also told me that the company will send him to China as a director tomorrow. Xu Lei is smart and free by nature. If he continues to stay in the bureaucracy, his thoughts and freedom will be restricted, and he will be able to make use of his advantages and strengths in the company, right? "
Xu Shousong sighed. "Yes, I didn't really understand his way of doing things in the past, but now I've thought it through. Let him be, as long as he is happy, that's enough. He is our only son, and his biggest wish now is to have a grandson. You have to help me urge him. "
Lu Yiwei smiled. "Don't worry, I'll call him some other day and tell him."
When Xu Shousong was in the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, he always had a stern face, but now he was much gentler. Maybe it was the nature of his work, or maybe it was the touch of his family, but his inner nature was aroused, and he was more like a kind father. He changed the topic. "Why did Xiao Zhiliang look for you tonight?"
Lu Yiwei was stunned for a moment. "Nothing much, he just came to see me."
His words could fool the old fox. "I don't think so, tell me the truth."
Lu Yiwei had no choice but to tell the truth. Xu Shousong felt a headache coming on. "I guessed it. What do you think of Xiao Zhiliang?"
Lu Yiwei analyzed objectively. "Overall, he's not bad. He's reliable and methodical, but he lacks aggressiveness, and tends to be mediocre. He doesn't dare or want to cause trouble, and is considered a good guy. "
Xu Shousong nodded. "This evaluation is more objective, and it's close to my understanding of him. This kind of person is not suitable to work in the government, and is more suitable to retire in the National People's Congress. Bei Zhou City's government has always been disunited. Fortunately, after I left, it's much better now, but it's still lacking manpower, especially people who dare to do things. Su Qiming may be the mayor, but he's not bold enough, and many things can't be pushed forward, which is quite a headache. But what can we do, we can only do it ourselves. "
"Recently, a lot of people have contacted me, including your father-in-law, who has recommended candidates. Overall, I think Bai Yuxin from Gu Chuan County is not bad. She is courageous and bold, and most importantly, she is not afraid of offending people. What I need is a wicked person, not a nice guy. "
Lu Yiwei understood and said, "I also think that Mayor Bai is a good choice. But aren't you afraid that someone will make a fuss about it?"
Xu Shousong snorted and said, "There are plenty of people who are unconvinced, but the biggest problem for Northern City right now is to speed up its economic development. I purposely vacated the position of Deputy Mayor. Firstly, it was to find useful people from the grassroots. Secondly, it was to see which active elements were manipulating the officialdom of the Northern State. We had to catch them all in one fell swoop. Regarding your concerns, I have already consulted with Secretary Zhang of the Provincial Party Committee. His request to me is to not stick to a single pattern of demotion. As long as it is beneficial to the economic development, I can make an exception and promote them. "
"Oh."
Xu Shousong extinguished the cigarette butt and said, "Since Xiao Zhiliang has come to you, I can't make things difficult for you. How about this? Give him a call and ask him to meet me in the office tomorrow afternoon."
His attitude surprised me. "Uncle Xu, I didn't agree to his request. I only said that I would give it a try. There is no need to disrupt your rhythm because of me."
Xu Shousong smiled and said, "It's okay. I know how to act appropriately. You have never begged me for help all these years, so this is nothing. Besides, I can't help you with anything else, but this is something I can help you with. Your current task is to accumulate as many political connections as possible. You have to have connections at the top and at the lower levels. If you take up a position in the future, they will be indispensable and valuable resources. "
I didn't expect Xu Shousong to be so considerate. He was the complete opposite of Fan Rongkui.
Xu Shousong patted his shoulder and said earnestly, "Yiwei, you are like an arrow on a bow, waiting for the right time to fire. As for where you will fire, no one can predict the future. I believe that your experience in the Municipal Party Committee has made you mature. Once you take up a position in the government, you can't be as sharp as before. You must learn to hide, learn to endure, and learn to control your resources. You must know that if you want to do something big, you can't do it alone. You need to train a group of people to work for you, and this requires wisdom and brains.
"Also, if you have time, talk to your father-in-law more. After all, he is your relative, and he won't kill your future. However, I can hear that there are some misunderstandings between the two of you. You must resolve them in time, and you must learn to compromise. You're smart, so you should know what to do. "
At this time, Fan Rongkui finished his call and returned. Xu Shousong got up and said, "You two talk. I'm going to see Old Xu and the others." Before leaving, he purposely patted Lu Yiwei's shoulder and turned to leave.
Fan Rongkui was a burly man, sitting opposite him like a mountain. He was talking and laughing just now, but in an instant, he was cold as ice, as if someone owed him money, making him uncomfortable.
Fan Rongkui picked up the cigarette on the table and lit it. He crossed his legs and looked at Lu Yiwei for a long time. "What were you busy with last night?"
Lu Yiwei didn't look at him and said coldly, "I had a meeting."
"Lang Lang is sick. Do you think it's appropriate that you're not around as a father?"
"I had no choice, and I had no choice."
Fan Rongkui's face darkened. "Yiwei, I know what you're thinking. Don't use work as an excuse to neglect Fangfang and the child. You've already had a marriage history, and I don't want my daughter to repeat the same mistake. I won't pursue the past, and you can focus on your family in the future. You don't have to think about anything else. If you feel busy, I can tell Old Bai to transfer you to a less busy department. "
Lu Yiwei gritted his teeth. He wanted to suppress the words in his heart and say it, but now was not the time. He swallowed his anger and said, "Dad, you're also a leader. You should know better than me how busy the people around you are. I just didn't go back for one night, is there a need to be like this?"
"Bam!"
Fan Rongkui slammed the table and said, "Don't give me those excuses. Do you really think I don't know where you were last night? I asked Old Bai, and there was no meeting last night. You had a meeting. You can lie to me, but I won't allow you to betray Fangfang. Let me tell you, your every move is within my control. Don't give me those fake things. I won't tolerate it! "
