The next morning, in Lu Yiwei's office.
Chairman Zhang Jianwen held a name list and said, "Secretary Lu, these are the people from all walks of life who are working in our county. There are about four to five thousand of them, and only one to two hundred of them are in regular contact. The people on the list all have a certain social status. Before the New Year, I called them one by one. So far, 34 of them are confirmed to be coming back, and more than 20 are interested, but they haven't decided yet. "
Lu Yiwei glanced at the name list. Many of them were working in Beijing, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Nanjing. Some were officials, some were businessmen, and some were engaged in cultural undertakings. The most famous ones were Xu Haiqiao, a well-known physicist, and Zheng Wenli, the principal of Beijing Jianshe University. The rest were scattered in various government agencies. The highest ranking one was Liu Zhanming, the Deputy Secretary of Nanjiang Provincial Party Committee. From the name alone, it could be seen that this person was inextricably linked to Liu Zhankui.
"Who is Liu Zhanming?"
Zhang Jianwen understood and said, "Liu Zhanming is from Guanxi Village in Chengguan Town. He is from the same family as Magistrate Liu. Their grandfathers are blood brothers, but they are not close. He was forced to leave. His father was a rich farmer, and he had relations with the other side of the mainland. He was labeled as a rightist and died in the catastrophe. "
Lu Yiwei understood and did not probe further. He asked, "Will he come back?"
Zhang Jianwen shook his head and said, "I called him three times in a row, but he said he was busy and didn't answer my calls. After all, he is a provincial official, and my rank is not there. I will be disgusted if I call him too many times. Why don't you make an appointment yourself? "
Lu Yiwei had heard about Liu Zhanming when he first came to Long 'an, but the situation was far more complicated than he imagined. It was known that during the catastrophe, his father was locked in a cowshed and was dragged out to be criticized every day. In the end, he committed suicide by biting his tongue. Liu Zhanming was also implicated. His schooling and military service were affected, and he was forced to escape from Long 'an with his younger brother and sister. After he left, his father was dug out from his grave and continued to be criticized, which made Liu Zhanming very disappointed.
According to tradition, digging up the ancestral grave was the punishment of Heaven, not to mention digging up the recently deceased father's corpse. it was inhumane. Digging up the ancestral grave meant that the roots were broken. Why would they come back? Therefore, Liu Zhanming had not returned even once in all these years.
Lu Yiwei asked curiously. "Does he have any contact with Mayor Liu?"
"This … I don't think so. Magistrate Liu wanted to curry favor with him, but he was ignored. Back then, Magistrate Liu's father was the director of the Revolutionary Committee. He drew a clear line and participated in the criticism. In any case, we are blood related brothers, hehe. "
Zhang Jianwen spoke in a disdainful tone, as though he was saying that Liu Zhankui had played a good hand to pieces. Lu Yiwei's mood was very heavy after hearing this. It was not because of Liu Zhankui, but because the madness of that period of history was really unimaginable. Although he hadn't experienced it himself, he had heard his father's generation talk about the turbulence of that indelible period of time.
Lu Yiwei pondered for a long time and said, "If Secretary Liu doesn't want to come back, don't force him. I'll personally visit him later. Can Professor Xu Haiqiao come back? "
"Professor Xu is already in his 80s. He has deep feelings for Long 'an and is very concerned about the development of Long' an. He is now settled in Hawaii, and the possibility of him coming back is very small. Maybe his daughter will come back. Xu Qianqian is a famous director in the fashion and entertainment circles and has a certain reputation in the circle. I've met her once, and she is currently settled in Beijing. "
"Good. Since we are going to do it, let's do it well." Lu Yiwei said, "President Zhang, you are fully in charge of this sorority. Don't worry about the money. Spend what you need to. The premise is that you have to make it big and colorful, and receive the people who are returning home with the highest standards."
Zhang Jianwen smiled and said confidently, "Don't worry. I will definitely carry out your instructions to the best of my ability."
After Zhang Jianwen left, Sun Gensheng came in. Lu Yiwei said, "How is the three lectures going?"
"The first phase is coming to an end. From the results, most of the units are not paying attention to it. They think this is just an ordinary learning activity."
This is the effect Lu Yiwei wanted. He pointed and said, "Secretary Sun, in the second phase, we must make the Democratic Organization Life Meeting more colorful. Arrange a few spots for me, and I want to participate in it personally. Especially the Finance Bureau, Urban Construction Bureau, and other departments. If they are not doing well, we will continue until they are done. "
Sun Gensheng understood his intention and nodded. "Don't worry. I know what to do."
Lu Yiwei lowered his voice and said, "Through this activity, we must deal with a batch of cadres and promote a batch of cadres. Look for them in advance, especially the young cadres. I want to put them in an important position, and the outstanding ones can be promoted as an exception. If there is no new blood, Long 'an will never be able to develop. Go back and draft a plan to select a batch of Deputy Section Chief candidates from the university students and Village officials. Those with higher education can go straight to the interview stage. Break the convention and select the best. There must be a profound revolution in Long 'an. If we can't reach the soul, and if we can't dig deep, we won't retreat.
As he spoke, Liu Zhankui came in with a cup of water. He sat down on the sofa expressionlessly and said directly, "Secretary Lu, who transferred Zhou Fanlin? Why don't I know? No matter what, at least let me know."
Without waiting for Lu Yiwei's response, Sun Gensheng said slowly, "County Head Liu, no matter what you think, you should at least show some respect. You should know to knock on the door, right? If I enter your office, I will also open the door.
Liu Zhankui snorted and replied, "Old Sun, you are a veteran in Long 'an, and you should know my character. I'm used to being casual, and I can't change it even if I want to."
Sun Gensheng looked at him and said, "Really? Then who else is in your eyes?"
"Who else? I don't need to report to you. I'm not like some people who are easily swayed by the wind."
Sun Gensheng was not angry. He smiled and said, "Swayed people should at least stand on the high ground and understand the rules. They can't do whatever they want just because they are the Mayor."
His words angered Liu Zhankui. He sat up and asked with a black face, "What do you mean?"
"Nothing. If you don't want others to know, don't do it. You know what kind of person Zhou Fanlin is. He has been in Long 'an for five to six years, and the security here is a mess. But his wallet is full. Transferring him away is letting him off easy. I think we should investigate this matter. "
"You …"
Sun Gensheng dared to speak to Liu Zhankui like this, which means he has something on him. It can also be seen that the conflict between the two is deep. This effect is what Lu Yiwei wants to see. Only by using one side to restrain the other can they plan and control the overall situation.
