At 8pm that night, the Jiangdong Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee was held as scheduled. Lu Yiwei had participated in the previous meetings as a note-taker, but today's situation was special. He had chosen to avoid being recommended for the position of Guwei's Party Secretary.
This period of time was undoubtedly torturous for him. Not only did he have to bear the pressure of public opinion, but he also had to endure the long wait. According to the organization's procedures, he had to first go through the organization's inspection, democratic evaluation, and a discussion with the Minister before the Standing Committee could vote for approval. However, all the previous steps were omitted. According to Bai Zongfeng, special treatment was given to special circumstances. Tonight was his big test.
When he was being promoted, Lu Yiwei was also very nervous, but not as nervous as today. He sat alone in his office. On the surface, his heart was as calm as water, but his heart was in turmoil and unease.
As a permanent body during the closing of the Party Congress, the Standing Committee could be considered a high-level meeting. Many important decisions were made from here and transmitted to all corners of the country for implementation. Therefore, every action of the Standing Committee affected everyone's heart. Personnel adjustment was only one part of it, but it was the most discussed topic.
There were many matters to be discussed in tonight's Standing Committee meeting, including the analysis of the economic operation and the implementation of the relocation of the enterprises. Under normal circumstances, personnel adjustment was usually left to the end. This was a trick. The participants would be tired and relaxed at the end of the meeting, and it would not leave much time for the other Standing Committee members to think. However, it was rare for personnel adjustment to be rejected in the Standing Committee meeting. The convener would have a discussion beforehand. In other words, the Standing Committee meeting was just a formality. No one dared to object to the decision made by the Leader, not to mention Bai Zongfeng's trusted aide.
The room was strangely quiet, and only the sound of burning cigarettes could be heard. Lu Yiwei closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair. Even though he did not attend the Standing Committee meeting, the scene of the meeting appeared in his mind. He could accurately see the words and actions of each Standing Committee member in the illusion, and he could also imagine what Bai Zongfeng was talking about in the middle. He could even imagine how the items on the table were arranged.
At this moment, the phone on the table vibrated. Lu Yiwei panicked and squinted his eyes to check. Seeing it was Pan Chengjun, he stood up and went to the resting room to pick it up.
"Nervous?"
Pan Chengjun asked out of nowhere. Lu Yiwei was surprised and asked, "Why should I be nervous?"
Pan Chengjun laughed and said, "The meeting hasn't ended yet?"
Old Pan had been in the business world for decades and had dealt with countless government officials. She was very clear about the rules of officialdom, even more so than some officials. Lu Yiwei had always said that if he were to enter politics, he would definitely be a talented general.
Getting to know Old Pan was purely an accident. Back then, when he was fighting the underworld in Nanyang County, he found Old Pan, a coal miner whose family had been ruined by a case. Since then, the two of them formed an indissoluble bond and became good friends despite the difference in age. After so many years of trials and tribulations, they had never once blushed or quarreled. Their cooperation complemented each other and they had a tacit understanding of each other. Moreover, his business acumen was absolutely top-notch. Under his management, Dongcheng Coal Mine's turnover had multiplied several times. There had not been a single accident, and the management was in good order. There were not many professional managers like him in the entire province.
Since they were friends, Lu Yiwei would not be as hypocritical as he was in front of others. He took off his mask and said honestly, "It's still open."
"Oh, I forgot to ask you a couple of days ago. Do you want to give it a try?"
"Not for now. Let's talk about it after it's done."
Pan Chengjun was familiar with these things and said, "I have already prepared the money for you. If you need it, I will send it to you at any time. Also, this is a major matter after all. Don't be careless. "
"Understood. How is it going on your side? "
"It's almost done. I plan to officially set up the company the day after tomorrow. There will be an unveiling ceremony. Secretary Guo Jinzhu will definitely come. Secretary Zhang has not decided yet, but it should be almost done. In addition, Tong Huan has also invited the deputy governor in charge of urban construction, Fu Huaqiu, and the chairman of the Provincial Construction Association, Zhao Hengrong. "
Lu Yiwei admired Tong Huan's communication skills and said, "I won't be going. I will go over later."
"Alright. You don't have to come over. Just focus on your work."
After hanging up, Lu Yiwei felt much better. Success was growing under the management of the two of them. It was worth it for Xu Banxian's death.
At 11: 30 pm, footsteps could be heard from the corridor. The meeting of the committee meeting had ended. Lu Yiwei quickly got up and walked to the door to open it. He turned back and sat down. It was unwise to appear in front of everyone now.
At this time, Yan Jie sent him a message. There were only two words, "Congratulations." Lu Yiwei let out a long sigh of relief. It seemed that there was no more suspense.
Lu Yiwei suppressed the excitement in his heart and tried his best to remain calm. In the near future, he would be the owner of Guwei District. This kind of feeling was unprecedented. If Black Mountain County was a small test of his abilities, then Guwei District was the real battlefield where he could fully display his skills.
As he was immersed in his sweet dreams, his phone rang. It was Bao Shuming. When he picked up the phone, Bao Shuming smiled and said, "Congratulations, Yiwei. You passed with a unanimous vote."
Lu Yiwei was flattered. It seemed that his relationship with others was not bad. He replied, "Thank you, Secretary Bao, for your guidance. No matter what position I take in the future, I will always be your student."
This sentence was very useful. Bao Shuming said sincerely, "Although it is a step up, the task is very difficult. Don't let your guard down. There is a long way to go."
"Thank you for your guidance. I will remember it."
"Alright, get ready for your appointment. I will see you off. After all, you are a leader from the General Office."
"Thank you."
At this moment, other than saying thank you, Lu Yiwei couldn't find a better word to say.
In the next hour, Lu Yiwei received fifty to sixty phone calls, all of which were congratulatory messages. There were calls from the city and from other places. It was obvious how advanced modern communication equipment was.
When it was almost 12: 30, Lu Yiwei walked out of the office and happened to meet Yan Jie, who was on his way home. The two looked at each other and smiled. "Shall we go for a drink?"
The two drove to a small restaurant in the old city. They cooked two side dishes and took two bottles of Xijiang Hong from the car. Sitting opposite, Yan Jie raised his glass and said excitedly, "Brother Yiwei, congratulations."
"You're welcome!"
Lu Yiwei said casually, "Let's not be so polite. We are family."
