"Why did you take so long to answer the phone?" Guo Jinzhu was so anxious that he almost cursed his mother and said angrily.
Lu Yiwei quickly said, "Secretary General Tu wants me to report on work. It's not convenient for me to answer the phone."
"Alright, alright. When will Teacher Yan arrive?" Guo Jinzhu said impatiently.
Lu Yiwei looked at his watch and asked, "Where are you now?"
"Almost at Dongzhou City."
Lu Yiwei's heart tightened. "Teacher Yan's flight is at 6.15 PM. He will land in ten minutes."
"Ah?" Guo Jinzhu panicked. He quickly hung up and urged the driver to speed up.
Guo Jinzhu was anxious, and so was Lu Yiwei. Tu Qiang's words had messed up all the schedules. The most important point now was Xiaowang Village.
This point was mainly to arrange for the villagers to talk to the provincial leaders, to show their love and compassion for the people. The villagers were carefully selected. There were no suitable people in Xiaowang Village, so they specially picked a few people from the government to pretend to be villagers. All the questions were prepared in advance. The questions and answers were all according to the script. Because no one could be sloppy when talking to the provincial leaders, they had rehearsed countless times. Finally, they were satisfied. Now, they had to add more scenes and lines. This was not something that could be done in a short time. But since things had come to this, they had to adjust it no matter what.
Lu Yiwei rushed to Xiaowang Village. The village was filled with a festive atmosphere as if it was New Year. The villagers were all wearing new clothes, and the children were running all over the village. Even the animals were very excited, and they kept crying out.
Executive Deputy County Head Zhao Jiancheng thought everything was fine. He returned to the county to watch the same song at night. A phone call messed up all his plans. He rushed to Xiaowang Village.
Lu Yiwei briefly explained the situation. Zhao Jiancheng was dumbfounded. He said, "Secretary Lu, what did you talk about in the past 20 minutes?"
Lu Yiwei was also vexed. The farmer's awareness was low, and as they chatted, they would drift off topic. If they talked openly, it would take more than a day. But what should they talk about?
After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't come up with a good idea. Zhao Jiancheng suggested, "Secretary Lu, aren't we going to build a tussah town? Why don't we talk about this?"
Lu Yiwei waved his hand and said, "Things haven't even started yet. What's the point of talking about that? No."
Zhao Jiancheng thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we talk about the central government's policies? That's the safest bet. I'm sure it won't go astray. "
Lu Yiwei rejected again. "What central government policy? The provincial government has not even implemented it properly, let alone the grassroots. It's easier for problems to arise if we talk, so let's not talk anymore. "
"Then what do we do?" Zhao Jiancheng didn't know what to do.
Lu Yiwei thought hard and a bold idea popped up in his mind. Should he give some advice to the provincial government? But that was a huge risk. Some leaders' honest words were unpleasant to the ear, but they could personally understand the suffering of the common people. Some leaders were headstrong and did not believe that there was such a poor place. They might even blame the local government for not doing anything and blame Guo Jinzhu.
Lu Yiwei knocked on the table and thought for a long time. Finally, he thought of a point of entry. Yes, let's talk about spiritual civilization! This topic was too broad and empty. No matter how much they talked about it, they could not get out of it. Moreover, the country strongly promoted the development of spiritual civilization. It was a good topic to talk about.
Lu Yiwei said, "Mayor Zhao, immediately think of a few topics around the development of spiritual civilization. For example, the lack of spiritual civilization of the farmers, their lives are monotonous, and they don't know what to do during the slack season. You can give suggestions to the provincial leaders. For example, building a cultural compound, sending plays to the countryside, organizing farmers' sports, etc. The main thing is to meet the needs of spiritual civilization of the farmers. Just follow this train of thought."
Zhao Jiancheng immediately understood Lu Yiwei's intention. He gave a thumbs up and said, "Secretary Lu, you are indeed a cultured person. You can grasp the key points at the crucial moment."
"Alright." Lu Yiwei hated flattery the most. He said, "Hurry up and get ready. I will go to the meeting room now. I will come back later. Organize the villagers to rehearse. Even if you don't sleep tonight, you must practice well. "
"Alright, go ahead. I guarantee that you will complete the task."
Black Mountain County was a city that never sleeps. The sky was still not dark, but it was brightly lit. The County party committee building had just been installed with laser lights. The lights were sweeping back and forth in the air, and the light beams were boundless. The county square was filled with people, waiting for the party to start.
The party was originally scheduled to start at 8 pm sharp. But since Zhang Bingtong was coming, it could only be postponed. As for when, it would depend on the old man's mood.
The county was very lively, but Lu Yiwei had no time to care. He hurried to the meeting room to check on the situation.
Zhao Xiaokang was still responsible. He did not sneak away like Zhao Jiancheng. When he saw Lu Yiwei, he stepped forward and said, "Secretary Lu, the Provincial Party Committee Secretary Zhang's seat card is ready. All the audio equipment has been tested, and there are no problems. We will do another test tomorrow morning. "
Lu Yiwei was very satisfied with Zhao Xiaokang. He knew what to do in advance. If the others were like him, he would not be so tired. But those people seemed to listen to orders on the surface, but only a few of them really contributed. Take Guo Zhenbiao for example. He was put in charge of logistics, but he did not rush to check if the preparations were in place. Instead, he accompanied the leaders of other districts to drink tea and chat. It was really disappointing.
Awareness was the first prerequisite for being an official. It was not about doing what the leader told you to do, but knowing what to do in advance. Zhao Xiaokang did it.
Lu Yiwei trusted Zhao Xiaokang. He walked around and went to the County party committee's secretariat.
Zhou Dake was exhausted these two days. It was said that he had not slept for a few nights. Preparing materials was both mental and physical work. Ordinary people could not bear it. Zhou Dake was the only one who worked so hard. If it was someone else, they might not work so hard. At critical moments, they had to rely on their own people.
"Secretary Lu, Secretary Liu is still editing. I think he won't be able to sleep tonight." Zhou Dake said helplessly.
Lu Yiwei's heart ached when he saw Zhou Dake's dark circles and dispirited look. He nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Bear with it for a while. You'll be fine after tonight."
"Mm." Zhou Dake said without any complaints. "It's impossible to send it to the leaders tonight. I have an idea. I'll print it overnight and send it to the leaders on the bus. What do you think?"
"Sure." Lu Yiwei felt that it was inappropriate after replying, so he added, "I'll listen to Secretary Tu."
"Alright."
At this moment, his phone rang. It was Yang Derong's call. It was no wonder that Yang Derong attended this meeting in the name of Nanyang County. Lu Yiwei quickly picked up the call.
"Yiwei, I've been in Black Mountain County for a long time, but you haven't come to see me. Don't you remember me?" Yang Derong laughed on the other end of the phone.
Lu Yiwei was embarrassed. He hurriedly apologized, "County Yang, I still have some work to do. I'll visit you when I'm done."
"Alright, stop joking." Yang Derong said with a smile, "I know you're busy. Don't worry about me. Come when you have time. If not, we'll talk another day."
"County Yang, wait a little longer. I'll be there soon." Yang Derong was the guest, but he was the host. No matter what, he had to see him.
"Alright. You go ahead. I'm fine." Yang Derong hung up the phone. He had a complicated feeling. Who would have thought that this young man would rise faster than him? Life was unpredictable.
As soon as he hung up, He Jian called, "Hello, Yiwei. No, I mean, Secretary Lu, where are you?"
Lu Yiwei apologized again.
He Jian was the driver. He did not have the self-restraint Yang Derong had. He said rudely, "You're just the secretary of a County party committee. What's there to be busy about? Just leave it to your subordinates. Secretary Xiao and I arrived a long time ago. When would you like to come over? "
Lu Yiwei explained again and again, but He Jian did not appreciate it. He said, "Yiwei, I didn't invite you. Secretary Xiao invited you personally. If you don't come, it won't look good."
"Alright." Lu Yiwei had no choice but to go visit.
On the way, Lu Yiwei suddenly had a thought. Pansy Company was a project that had just been brought back. What if Zhang Bingtong wanted to go take a look? He was completely unprepared.
To be on the safe side, he gave Chen Zhongqi a call. Fortunately, Chen Zhongqi happened to be there. Lu Yiwei briefly explained the situation. Chen Zhongqi could deal with this kind of thing easily. He said, "Alright, I'll have them prepare tonight. I guarantee it won't miss tomorrow's big event."
After settling down, Lu Yiwei rushed to the hotel in Nanyang County.
The people in this building were all from the Northern City. Everyone looked familiar. It was as if he had returned to his own home. Everything was familiar. As soon as he entered the door, he ran into his old leader, Chu Yunchi. Chu Yunchi was now the secretary of the County party committee of Guchuan County. He held Lu Yiwei's hand and did not let go, praising him. Before he could finish, the secretary of the Northern City Municipal Party Committee, Qin Xiuwen, came downstairs.
Qin Xiuwen did not like Lu Yiwei in the first place, but this time, his attitude took a 180-degree turn. He took the initiative to shake hands and said, "Yiwei, we're here today to see you. I'm proud of you for achieving such good results. You should visit your hometown more often when you have time. "
Lu Yiwei said modestly, "My achievements today are all thanks to Secretary Qin's nurturing. Without you, there would be no Lu Yiwei today. "
"Haha …" Qin Xiuwen laughed boldly and nodded. "I'm very grateful that you have such intentions. If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have let you go no matter what. Don't you think so, Old Chu? "
Chu Yunchi chimed in with a smile and said, "Yiwei is a piece of gold. He will shine wherever he goes." Chu Yunchi was praising Lu Yiwei, but he was also implying that Qin Xiuwen did not recognize talent.
"That's true." Qin Xiuwen smiled and said, "Alright, I still have something to do. You guys continue chatting." After that, he went to other hotels to socialize with the leaders of various districts.
After Qin Xiuwen left, Mayor Lin Haifeng also came down. When he saw Lu Yiwei, he was stunned at first. Then, he smiled and said, "Not bad, Yiwei. You're very outstanding. Work hard!" After that, he turned around and left.
