"Yiwei, the Provincial Party Committee's Secretary Zhang may be attending tomorrow's meeting. This way, the Provincial Party Committee's status will be elevated. Just now, the Provincial Party Committee's General Office called and said that they want to review tomorrow's meeting agenda. They also want us to draft Secretary Zhang's speech. You will be in charge of this work. "
Lu Yiwei was shocked when he heard this. "Secretary Zhang is also attending?"
Bao Shuming nodded. "Yes. The entire meeting agenda will be changed. Tomorrow's meeting will be chaired by Governor Zhao. Governor Shen will arrange the deployment and read out the implementation plan. Secretary Bai will make a statement, and Secretary Zhang will make an important speech. The meeting location will not be changed. It will be in the automobile factory's auditorium. The meeting will be held at 9 am sharp tomorrow. All the relevant Provincial Party Heads will be attending. The Provincial Party Committee has put the burden on us for such a high-level meeting. We must be prepared. According to Secretary Bai's instructions, I will be in charge of the overall coordination of the meeting. Secretary-General Dong will be in charge of organizing the meeting. Secretary-General Liu will be in charge of logistics and security. You will be in charge of the written materials. "
Lu Yiwei asked again. "You are saying that I will be in charge of drafting Secretary Zhang's speech?"
"Yes. The Provincial Party Committee's Secretary-General Tu will personally arrange this."
Lu Yiwei suddenly became nervous. "Secretary-General Bao, I will reluctantly write the speech for Secretary Bai. But if I write it for Secretary Zhang, I am afraid …"
Bao Shuming said expressionlessly. "Now is not the time to shirk your responsibilities. You should take the initiative to take responsibility. You are the First Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee's General Office. If you don't write it, I will do it. Yan Jie will cooperate with you. You don't need to worry about the other materials. Leave them to the Secretary Department. You just focus on writing Secretary Zhang's speech. "
Lu Yiwei braced himself and agreed. Bao Shuming emphasized again, "Yiwei, this meeting is unusual. You should know that the relocation of the company was proposed by Secretary Zhang. It is a big project that he is in charge of. From this meeting, you can see that he values it. When writing a speech, one must stand at the height of the Provincial Party Committee, stand on the dimension of the province, and stand from the perspective of the overall situation. One must be well-rounded and well-versed in many aspects. You need to show the Provincial Party Committee's determination and Secretary Zhang's intentions. Go back and think about it carefully. You must write it down before 10 o 'clock tonight. The General Office of the Provincial Party Committee will examine it then. "
Back in the office, Lu Yiwei couldn't come back to his senses for a long time. He stared blankly at the computer screen. If it was said that writing a speech for Bai Zongfeng was a piece of cake, it would be done in one go. There was no need to think too much at all. This was because he had been with Bai Zongfeng for nearly three years, and he knew his language habits and the way he expressed himself like the back of his hand. However, he had never written a speech for a higher-level leader before. One must know that this was a speech for the highest official in the province. There was no room for mistakes. Even a punctuation mark had to be carefully considered. Once there was a low-level mistake, it would be a big joke. In addition, there would definitely be news media at tomorrow's meeting. It would also be broadcasted on Xijiang News Broadcast …
Lu Yiwei's mind was blank. He didn't know where to start. Firstly, he was just a low-level official. He didn't have the political height of the Provincial Party Committee leader. His political awareness and the overall situation were far from reaching that level. Secondly, he didn't know much about Zhang Bingtong's speech habits. Who knew how he liked to express himself?
While he was thinking, Bai Zongfeng pushed the door open and came in. Lu Yiwei quickly got up. Before he could say anything, Bai Zongfeng said anxiously, "Did Secretary-General Bao tell you?"
"Yes, he just told me."
"Then hurry up and prepare. Originally, Secretary Zhang's speech should be drafted by the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee. However, Secretary-General Tu said that we are the main implementation body of the company's relocation this time, so he put the burden on us. Secretary Zhang is a very strict person. You have to write it well. This may seem like a difficult task, but it is also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you. If you are appreciated by Secretary Zhang, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep you. "
Lu Yiwei had never thought so much. However, since Bai Zongfeng had personally arranged it, he had to overcome any difficulties. He said, "Secretary Bai, please rest assured. I promise to complete the task."
Bai Zongfeng smiled and said, "I believe you. Then I will not be involved in this matter. You and Secretary-General Bao are in charge of liaising with the Provincial Department. "After he finished speaking, he turned and left.
Lu Yiwei stood there with his legs trembling. He had never been so nervous before. Even when he was speaking in front of the Provincial Municipal Party Committee Secretary in Heishan County, he was not nervous. However, today, he was extremely nervous. If he didn't write it well, not only would Bai Zongfeng be implicated, but it would also affect the overall situation.
He sat down and lit a cigarette. He calmly thought for a while. He immediately flipped through the recent newspapers and carefully read Zhang Bingtong's speeches at various events. The press releases were all refined, and he could not figure out Zhang Bingtong's speech habits at all. He then called the Secretary Zhang and asked them to find all of Secretary Zhang's speeches for the past three months. However, if he were to study at the last minute and apply what he had just learned, he would not be able to complete it in time.
At this time, his phone rang. Lu Yiwei looked sideways and saw that it was Zhang Zhiyuan. He quickly picked it up.
Zhang Zhiyuan hurriedly said, "You know everything, right?"
Lu Yiwei nodded and said, "Yes. Secretary Bai asked me to draft Secretary Zhang's speech. I am afraid I can't complete the task."
Zhang Zhiyuan cheered him up. "What are you afraid of? It's just a speech draft. Haven't you been studying all this time? You can integrate Secretary Zhang's thoughts into it and do some editing. It will be a very good speech draft."
It was easy to say, but difficult to do. Lu Yiwei smiled bitterly. "What if it deviates from the original idea?"
Zhang Zhiyuan paused. "How about this? I will call the Municipal Party Committee's General Secretary Xu and ask him to help. However, he has been very busy recently and might not be able to help. You have to rely on yourself. Is the implementation plan out yet? "
"I'm not sure. The Secretary Zhang is working on it."
"Send it to me quickly. Governor Shen wants to see it."
"Okay."
Before hanging up, Zhang Zhiyuan said, "Yiwei, my matter is settled. I will have a meeting with the Standing Committee tomorrow afternoon. I will probably take office next week."
Lu Yiwei was happy for him when he heard the good news. He said excitedly, "Then I should call you Director Zhang in the future. Haha."
Zhang Zhiyuan was both happy and worried. He was on the frontline. If he failed to live up to the Provincial Party Committee's efforts, he might end up like the previous three. He would be on death row and would never have the chance to make a comeback. He said, "There is no such thing between us. You can call me whatever you want. By the way, you should seriously consider what you said to me last time. Even if you want to leave, you have to wait until the relocation is complete. I suggest you follow Old Bai and endure for a few more years. Old Bai will give you an explanation. "
Lu Yiwei nodded. "I will listen to you."
