The first time they met, Lu Yiwei was still the Deputy Mayor of North River Town. In order to save Niu Fuyong, he could no longer care about anything else. In an emergency, he found Guo Jinzhu by accident, and in the end, he was saved. From then on, they formed an indissoluble bond. Along the way, their relationship was quite harmonious. Lu Yiwei helped him to different degrees on many occasions and became the "benefactor" of his growth.
Guo Jinzhu was an official with a strong personality in the Xijiang officialdom. He was hot-tempered and spoke straightforwardly. He never beat around the bush. He did things swiftly and decisively. Moreover, he was ruthless and decisive. The outside world always called him "Guo Dapao". It was enough to show that he had a clear and unique personality.
The officialdom emphasized the middle way. You could be mediocre and do nothing, but you could stand out from the crowd. Once you were given a certain label, you would inevitably become the target of public criticism. According to Guo Jinzhu's character, not only did he not fall, but he also advanced triumphantly. He could not do without the silent support of Tan Liangnian.
As mentioned earlier, Tan Lao did not care about the affairs of the world after he retired from the Organization Minister of the Provincial Party Committee. In addition, he was ill and recuperated outside all year round, so he rarely asked about the Xijiang officialdom. Although he said that he did not ask about it, even if he was thousands of miles away, he knew the situation of Xijiang like the back of his hand. No matter who became the leader, they dared to offend anyone except the retired cadres. Especially the old revolutionaries with a red background, they would not dare to do things their own way even if they were given a few more guts. It should be known that this group had eyes and ears everywhere. Their power was boundless, and their henchmen were everywhere. They could easily ruin one's future.
Therefore, before making certain decisions, they had to seek the opinions of the old leaders and obtain their support. Even if they changed personnel, they had to take into account their reputation and did not dare to do it carelessly.
It was not that Guo Jinzhu did not have opponents, and the leaders did not necessarily like him. As the disciple of Tan Lao, no one dared to do anything to him. If it was not for his protection, he might have been put into the "cold palace" long ago.
Lu Yiwei could clearly see the situation. Guo Jinzhu was bold and unscrupulous. One day, he would fall. To put it bluntly, once Elder Tan passed away, it would be like a broken drum being beaten by tens of thousands of people. Therefore, maintaining a "lukewarm" relationship with him was also an effective measure to protect himself.
Now that Guo Jinzhu took the initiative to care about him, Lu Yiwei was very grateful and said, "Thank you, Secretary Guo. I am willing."
Guo Jinzhu immediately picked up the phone and dialed a number. After a while, he smiled and said, "Old Tao, what you said at the dinner last night, did you have a plan? That's right, that's good. It's like this, do you think you can put this project in Long An County … Yes, yes, yes, South Zhou's Long An County. The agricultural foundation here is pretty good, everything is pretty good … Okay, thank you so much, you've helped me a lot, I'll treat you next time, haha … "
After hanging up the phone, Guo Jinzhu threw his phone on the table and said, "Old Tao has agreed. This project will only be implemented after the New Year. But don't take it seriously. Hurry up and go see him in two days. Let's settle this matter first. "
"Okay, okay, okay. How about I go see him in the afternoon?"
"That's fine too. That's for the best."
"Alright, then how do you suggest …"
Guo Jinzhu picked up a cigarette and lit it. "You're asking me about this? Do as you see fit. "
Lu Yiwei felt that he had misspoken. He regretted it repeatedly and said, "I understand."
Guo Jinzhu was obviously absent-minded. Lu Yiwei knew his situation and did not ask further. He stood up and said, "Secretary Guo, please go ahead."
"Okay. Wait for me at the entrance of the provincial government at 4: 30 pm."
"Alright."
Hu Zhixiong was busy preparing for the meeting in the afternoon. Lu Yiwei didn't disturb him and quietly left the high-tech zone.
This time, he mainly used his connections to solve the transportation problem. Although it did not go his way, he did not expect to get an unexpected reward. His current thinking was that no matter what the project was, as long as it was beneficial to Long 'an, he would accept as many as he could. To be able to do something practical for Long An within a limited time, this was his value pursuit.
It was almost noon when he left the high-tech zone. When Nan Chao asked him where he was going, he couldn't make up his mind. On the one hand, he wanted to go home and have a meal with his family. On the other hand, he had another thing on his mind. Since he was back, it would be inappropriate if he did not meet Bai Zongfeng. After all, Bai Zongfeng was an old leader, and he would be leaving soon. He did not know when they would meet again. It would be inappropriate if he did not seize this opportunity.
After thinking for a while, he took out his phone and dialed Yan Jie's number.
"Are you busy?"
Yan Jie lowered his voice and said, "I'm fine. You are back?"
"Yes."
Yan Jie understood what he meant and said, "Secretary Bai went to the Provincial Party Committee. I don't know if he will be back at noon. The Provincial Party Committee will come for an inspection at 3 pm."
"Oh."
Yan Jie continued, "Secretary Bai is quite busy these two days. How about this? I will call you when he is back."
"Okay. I'll leave it to you."
"You're welcome!"
After hanging up, Lu Yiwei immediately said, "Nan Chao, contact Xu Changyuan immediately. Ask him to bring 200,000 yuan and open 20 bank cards. Each card is 10,000 yuan. The password is 123456. Write it at the back. Call Director Wang of the Transportation Bureau and Director Zhao of the Agriculture Commission to come as soon as possible. Try to get there before 3 pm."
"Okay. Where are you going now?"
"The Jiangdong Municipal Party Committee."
When he arrived at the Jiangdong Municipal Party Committee's compound, Lu Yiwei looked at the familiar environment and felt at home. After all, he had been here for more than three years. Although he was busy every day, his life was quite fulfilling. If he had the chance to come back again, he would appear here with a new identity.
As soon as he entered the lobby, Ma Feifei and Shi Xiaoman walked out of the elevator. Seeing him, Ma Feifei was stunned for a second. Then she walked over with a smile and said, "Oh, it's Yiwei. I just mentioned you to Xiaoman. I didn't expect to see you so soon. This is amazing."
Last time, when the Jiangdong Automobile Factory had an accident, Ma Feifei, as the main person in charge, had chosen to be sick. She had cleverly avoided the accident and even made a false accusation. Lu Yiwei snorted at her actions. His previous good impression of her was gone. The officialdom was very realistic. People would flock to those who had the advantage for fear of losing out. If there was a problem, they would hide as far away as possible like a mouse seeing a cat. They would push the blame to all sides for fear of being involved. In the end, it was resolved properly and smoothly. No one was implicated.
It was said that everyone in the officialdom was a drama queen. This saying was true. No matter how much they thought of him, they should not show it. They should greet him with a smile as if nothing had happened. Lu Yiwei looked at Shi Xiaoman behind him and smiled. "Mayor Ma, are you getting off work?"
"Yes, I just finished. I have to go to the bearing factory at noon. The relocation work is almost done." Ma Feifei sighed and said, "I was complaining to Secretary Bai the other day. The relocation was such a heavy task, but I let go of my right-hand man. If you were here, I wouldn't have to worry so much. Sigh! "
