"Chief Dong is back!" The next day, the Deputy Director of the County party committee, Du Jiaming, appeared in Lu Yiwei's office. He was reporting the news about Nanyang.
Lu Yiwei was reading his documents and said casually. "So be it. I need to go back to the Organization Department. I really can't handle the County party committee's work."
Du Jiaming said mysteriously. "Chief Lu, that's not what I meant. I heard Chief Dong is running for the Deputy Mayor's position. Tsk tsk! Chief Dong is already in such a bad state, but he still can't let go of his work. "
Lu Yiwei knew that Du Jiaming was mocking Dong Guoping, so he raised his head and said: "Chief Dong is an old comrade. According to his experience, he should have been promoted to Deputy Mayor long ago. But there are only so many Deputy Mayor positions. I think Chief Dong still has a high chance of getting the position. "
"Maybe." Du Jiaming felt sour in his heart. He didn't feel good. He had been a Section Chief for many years, but he could not get promoted. He had been working in the County party committee as the Deputy Mayor. He also wanted to run for the Deputy Mayor's position. But when he heard that Xu Wannian from the Finance Bureau and Qu Guangping from the Land and Resources Bureau will be running, he was disappointed. Now, Dong Guoping is also running, and it is even more hopeless for him.
Seeing Lu Yiwei keeping quiet, Du Jiaming tried to strike up a conversation. "Chief Lu, I heard that many people are vying for the Deputy Mayor's position. It's going to be lively. Why don't you run? "
"Me?" Lu Yiwei raised his head and lowered it again. "Chief Du, you are making fun of me. I had just been promoted to Section Chief, and I am not qualified to run. Furthermore, I am not qualified enough, and I don't want to be a disgrace. Oh, aren't you going to run for the position? "
Du Jiaming sat on the sofa and said helplessly. "I want to run, but competing with Chief Dong is like throwing an egg against a rock. I gave up. Sigh!"
Picking up the cigarette on the table, Lu Yiwei threw it to Du Jiaming and comforted, "Don't be discouraged. It might not be your turn this time, but it might be your turn next time."
This sentence gave Du Jiaming something to say. He suddenly stood up and said with his eyes shining, "Director Lu, tell me the truth. Is Secretary Zhang going to do something bigger next?"
Lu Yiwei shook his head and said, "I don't know what Secretary Zhang is thinking. I haven't heard anything yet."
"Look, look, you're still hiding it from me." Du Jiaming said in disbelief, "But why did I hear that some of the leaders are going to be removed and a new batch of people will be promoted?"
Lu Yiwei stopped what he was doing and asked in surprise, "Where did you hear that?"
Du Jiaming smirked and said, "That's none of your business. Is it true or not?"
It was said that there were no secrets in the government. This was a conversation between Yan Dongsen and Zhang Zhiyuan. How did it get out? Du Jiaming had never mentioned it to anyone, and it's impossible for Zhang Zhiyuan to say it. Then it must be Yan Dongsen. Du Jiaming replied nonchalantly, "I really don't know about this."
Du Jiaming suddenly said in a pleading tone, "Director Lu, if there's any news from Secretary Zhang, you have to tell me. To be honest, I have been working in the County party committee for too long, and I really want to move. If there's really such a policy, you must help me put in a good word. "
Lu Yiwei smiled and said, "Director Du, we've known each other for more than a year or two. Everyone can see your working ability. If there's really such a policy, I believe Secretary Zhang will consider you. "
"Really? That's great. "Du Jiaming thought this was Lu Yiwei's signal, and he was excited. He grabbed Lu Yiwei's hand and said, "Director Lu, I am not an ungrateful person. As long as you can help me, I know what to do."
Lu Yiwei smiled and did not say anything.
At this moment, footsteps came from the corridor, and Lu Yiwei pricked up his ears to listen. The footsteps were not from Zhang Zhiyuan. Du Jiaming heard it and whispered, "Director Dong is here!"
Lu Yiwei immediately stood up and went out to welcome Dong Jiaming.
"Director Dong, you are back." Lu Yiwei quickly went up to greet Dong Guoping. No matter what, Dong Guoping is the official Director of the County party committee.
Dong Guoping had lost a lot of weight, especially on his cheeks. His cheekbones are high, and his eye bags are especially serious. One look and anyone can tell that he is seriously ill. Even when he is so ill, he still dragged his body to participate in the election. This spirit is worthy of respect and learning.
Dong Guoping had been the Director of the County party committee for nearly eight years, and he had served three leaders. If Zhang Zhiyuan is included, he will be the fourth. As the saying goes, a new ruler brings his own ministers, not to mention those who serve him all the time. The director of the government office was changed again and again, but what was strange was that Dong Guoping still sat firmly in his position.
On one hand, Dong Guoping's comprehensive coordination ability is very strong, and it is not easy for him to gain the trust of several leaders. On the other hand, with his qualifications and ability, he can be a Deputy Director, and he is more than qualified to be a Deputy Mayor. But why can't he be promoted? This was something worth pondering. Dong Guoping has good interpersonal relationships, and he has a good relationship with the members of the Standing Committee, but he is not one of them.
Although Dong Guoping is hospitalized in the Provincial Capital, he knows everything that is happening in Nanyang County. Lu Yiwei is taking over the County party committee office on his behalf, and although he is unhappy, this is Zhang Zhiyuan's decision, and he must follow it. Dong Guoping accepted Lu Yiwei's humility and stretched out his hand with a smile. "Yiwei, you are getting more energetic. That's good!"
Lu Yiwei quickly said. "Your body seems to be recovering well. It's good that you are back. I have been looking forward to this day for a long time."
Only one can guess who is telling the truth. Dong Guoping is still smiling. "Don't just stand there. Let's talk in my office."
The County party committee office was moved from the third floor to the fourth floor, and Dong Guoping had specially reserved three offices. Lu Yiwei is in charge of the office, and he should be working in this office, but he did not come in even once. After Dong Guoping entered the office, he looked around and nodded. "Good, good. Yiwei, not bad at all!"
Lu Yiwei said. "This is all thanks to Director Du."
Dong Guoping turned around and nodded at Du Jiaming.
After sitting down, Lu Yiwei said with concern, "Director Dong, I wanted to visit you in the Provincial Capital a long time ago, but I couldn't leave. It's such a pity. But I am relieved to see that you have just recovered from your illness, and your body is even healthier than before. "
When Dong Guoping spoke, he had a smile on his face, and he is very approachable. Perhaps this was the magic weapon that allowed him to become an official. "What's there to see? I am satisfied that you have the heart to help me. Now that I think about it, what's the point of living in this life? It's all for myself. If my body collapses, I will have nothing left. I am very envious of you being so energetic. "
Lu Yiwei did not continue the conversation, but said. "Director Dong, you are back now. I will hand over my work later, and I will go back to work in the afternoon."
"Don't!" Dong Guoping immediately stopped him. "Yiwei, don't think too much. I am old, and my body is failing. I don't have the energy to work anymore. I am here to resign. I hope Secretary Zhang will agree to let me step down and give my position to you young people. Work hard. I have always thought highly of you. "
Dong Guoping's words are sincere, and it doesn't sound like he is just being polite. But Lu Yiwei insisted. "Director Dong, don't say this. You are still young! I will speak to Secretary Zhang later to hand over my work. "After that, Dong Guoping did not wait for Dong Guoping's approval and walked out of the door.
Dong Guoping did not insist and continued smiling.
Smiling had many meanings, but hanging a smile on one's face without showing one's teeth, and putting on a fake smile that didn't reach one's eyes gave too many meanings. Some are sincere and kind, and some are malicious. As for which one is true, it is up to you to figure it out.
Dong Guoping's smile is strange. It seems to be in between the two, and it is hard to understand. But after understanding his actions, this smile is really cunning. It is a typical smiling tiger. On the surface, he is smiling, but only he knows what he is thinking in his heart. Maybe from his smile, one can understand why he can't get promoted.
After Lu Yiwei left, Li Zhaoqing, the head of the Political Research Office, immediately went into Dong Guoping's office and closed the door to do some secret research.
Lu Yiwei returned to his office and stared at the documents on the table in a daze. Although working in the County party committee is tiring, he has adapted to this rhythm. Now that he is leaving suddenly, he is a little reluctant. But for Zhang Zhiyuan's plan, he must leave for now.
Zhang Zhiyuan came. Lu Yiwei stood up and was about to report his work. When he walked out of the door, he saw Dong Guoping following behind him. When Zhang Zhiyuan saw Lu Yiwei, he said, "Yiwei, come in."
After entering the office, Zhang Zhiyuan first asked about Dong Guoping's health and then said, "Since you are back, go to work as usual. I will not arrange many things for you, and Jia Ming will handle it for you temporarily. But when it comes to important meetings or matters, you will have to handle it personally. I am 100% at ease with you. "
Dong Guoping was touched by Zhang Zhiyuan's words. "Thank you, Secretary Zhang. As long as I am alive, I will do my best to do my job. But during this period, Comrade Yiwei has been helping me. I think it is better to let Yiwei do it. "
"No!" Zhang Zhiyuan said firmly, "Isn't Yiwei working in the Organization Department? Then let him go back. They also need him there."
Dong Guoping tried to persuade Zhang Zhiyuan, but Zhang Zhiyuan interrupted. "That's settled. After this afternoon's meeting, Yiwei will go back to the Organization Department."
Zhang Zhiyuan turned around and said to Lu Yiwei. "I will talk to Chief Dong for a while. Bring the proposal over later."
