In fact, Xia Ruofei's hearing was better than most people's. Although Song Qiming was covering the microphone, Xia Ruofei could still hear what he said.
It was such a small matter, but Song Qiming still took care of it personally. He even told He Feng to try his best to satisfy Xia Ruofei's request. This made Xia Ruofei feel slightly touched.
After He Feng left, Song Qiming continued to talk to Xia Ruofei, "Xiao Xia, I've already told He Feng, who is in charge of education in Zhonglou District. I'll ask my secretary, Xiao Cao, to give you his contact information. Also, if you need anything in the future, you can ask Xiao Cao directly. "
Xia Ruofei said sincerely, "Secretary Song, thank you very much!"
Song Qiming laughed heartily and said, "You don't have to be so polite with me! Xiao Xia, if there's nothing else, I'll hang up first. My comrades in Zhonglou District are still waiting for me to eat! "
"Okay, okay. Bye, Secretary Song!" Xia Ruofei said.
Not long after ending the call with Song Qiming, Xia Ruofei received a call from a local phone in Sanshan.
"Hello!" Xia Ruofei said as he picked up the phone.
"Hello, is this Mr. Xia?" a young voice asked politely from the other side of the phone.
"I'm Xia Ruofei, and you are …"
"Oh, Mr. Xia, hello! I'm Secretary Song's secretary, Cao Guangzhi. Secretary Song asked me to give you the contact information of Mayor He. "
Xia Ruofei immediately said, "Oh, it's Director Cao! Hello! "
"You're too polite. You can just call me Xiao Cao!" Cao Guangzhi said quickly.
Song Qiming called Cao Guangzhi over and told him Xia Ruofei's phone number. He asked him to contact Xia Ruofei immediately and send He Feng's contact information to Xia Ruofei. He also solemnly told him that if Xia Ruofei needed anything done in the future, he must do his best to do it. If there were any difficulties, he must also report to him immediately.
Cao Guangzhi had just become Song Qiming's secretary and was at the most cautious stage. this could be said to be the first personal matter that Song Qiming gave him. Cao Guangzhi naturally took it very seriously. At the same time, he valued Mr. Xia.
Although Xia Ruofei's voice sounded very young on the phone, Cao Guangzhi was still very humble.
Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "I wouldn't dare. Director Cao, you're Secretary Song's big secretary!"
"No, no, no, Mr. Xia, you're too polite," Cao Guangzhi quickly said, "I'm just a normal staff member that serves the leader."
Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "Director Cao, let's add each other on WeChat later! You can just send me Mayor He's contact information through WeChat. "
"Okay, okay," Cao Guangzhi said, "Mr. Xia, please don't call me Director Cao. I don't deserve it! I'm just a small soldier in the First Secretary Department! Not to mention the Municipal Committee. "
"You're too humble!" Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "Since you're working under Secretary Song, it's only a matter of time before you get a position. It'll be solved sooner or later."
Song Qiming was the Municipal Committee's Secretary, and also a leader of the Provincial Party Committee. How could his secretary always be a normal staff member? As long as Cao Guangzhi had enough experience, he would at least be a deputy director of the First Secretary Department, and he would soon become the director of a department, or even the deputy director of the Municipal Committee.
Xia Ruofei then said, "Brother Cao, we're not strangers. You don't have to call me Mr. Xia. Just call me by my name."
Hearing that Xia Ruofei changed the way he addressed him, Cao Guangzhi was happy. He quickly said, "Okay, I'm a few years older than you, so I'll call you Brother Xia!"
"Okay!" Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "Brother Cao, you've just started working under Secretary Song, so you must be very busy. When you're free in a few days, let's get together. I'll buy you a drink!"
"Okay! Then I'll be waiting for Brother Xia's good wine! "Cao Guangzhi laughed and said.
The two chatted for a while. Xia Ruofei thought that Cao Guangzhi still had to serve the leaders, so he didn't talk for too long and hung up the phone.
However, Xia Ruofei's first impression of Cao Guangzhi was quite good. After chatting for a while, they felt that they were much closer to each other.
Not long after the call, Cao Guangzhi added Xia Ruofei's WeChat and sent He Feng's phone number.
Xia Ruofei sent a thankful emoji.
He didn't contact He Feng right away. Song Qiming was still doing research in Zhonglou District, and it was lunchtime there. He Feng must be busy greeting the leaders. Xia Ruofei thought about it and didn't want to cause any more trouble.
It wasn't until ten o 'clock in the evening that Xia Ruofei finally called He Feng.
In fact, he didn't know that He Feng had been waiting for "Mr. Xia" to call him the whole afternoon.
Song Qiming's trip to Zhonglou District was in the evening, but he was mainly talking to the members of the Party Committee in the afternoon. He Feng was only a middle-ranking deputy mayor and wasn't part of the Party Committee, so he didn't have much to do in the afternoon.
Now, He Feng's mind was full of what Song Qiming asked him to do. He also called the director of the District Education Bureau in advance to find out about the enrollment of Zhonglou Elementary School this year and instructed him to prepare in advance.
The preparation was mainly for the director of the Education Bureau to find out about the situation of this year's top class in Zhonglou Elementary School and assign better teachers to that class. This was something that Secretary Song was personally involved in, so that child would definitely be assigned to the top class.
He Feng waited for the whole afternoon, but didn't receive a call from Mr. Xia.
However, He Feng didn't find it strange. Someone who could arrange such a small thing through Secretary Song couldn't be a simple person. Maybe Mr. Xia didn't take such a small thing seriously, and such a capable person must be very busy.
When it was almost time to get off work in the evening, He Feng was about to check on the situation. If Secretary Song ended the conversation, he could go out in time to see him off and show his face in front of the leaders.
Just then, He Feng's phone, which had been on the loudest all the time, suddenly rang.
He sprung up from the chair like a spring and grabbed the phone.
The screen showed an unfamiliar number from Sanshan. He Feng quickly pressed the answer button.
He didn't sound as reserved as he usually did. "Hello!"
It was Xia Ruofei. He asked, "Hello, is this Mayor He?"
He Feng heard the young voice on the other end of the phone and couldn't help but be surprised, but he quickly replied, "I'm He Feng, and you are?"
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Hello, Mayor He. I'm Xia Ruofei. Secretary Song asked me to call you."
He Feng quickly said, "It's Mr. Xia! Hello, hello! Secretary Song already told me about the child's enrollment, and I've already talked to the District Education Bureau this afternoon! "
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Thank you so much, Mayor He."
"You're welcome, it's nothing!" He Feng quickly said, "Mr. Xia, I've already talked to the District Education Bureau. Your child …"
"Mayor He, it's not my child," Xia Ruofei interrupted He Feng and said, "It's the child of one of my comrades."
He Feng smiled awkwardly and said, "Oh … I see! I'm sorry, Mr. Xia. Does your comrade have any special requirements for the child's teacher? I can send you a list of the teachers of the two schools … "
"No need, no need!" Xia Ruofei wasn't used to He Feng's enthusiasm and quickly said, "Mayor He, as long as the enrollment process is normal!"
"Okay, okay, okay. I'll let them arrange for your comrade's child to be in the experimental class of the two schools," He Feng said. He Feng said, "The experimental class is the calling card of the Bell Tower Primary School. All the hard and soft conditions, including the best teachers, are tilted towards the experimental class."
"That's great, thank you, Mayor He!" Xia Ruofei said, "So … when will the enrollment process be? Do we need to prepare any materials? "
"Mr. Xia, the enrollment process for the two schools is already over," He Feng said. "But it's okay … When you're free, bring your child's household register and parent's ID. I'll go with you to sign up."
Actually, the enrollment process was just a matter of He Feng's word. Xia Ruofei only needed to provide a name and ID number.
However, He Feng played a little trick here. He believed that Xia Ruofei was a very important person and had a special relationship with Song Qiming. Therefore, he wanted to grab hold of this connection tightly. Therefore, he planned to use this matter to get closer to Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei paused and said, "Um … Mayor He, it's just an enrollment. You don't have to do it yourself, right? You can just tell the Education Bureau or the school, and we'll bring the materials to sign up. "
He Feng said, "Of course, of course. This is a task given by Secretary Song himself. I have to be responsible for it! Mr. Xia, it's okay if you're not free. There's still a month before school starts! Whenever you have time, feel free to give me a call! "
Xia Ruofei smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not that busy. In that case, are you free tomorrow morning? If you're free, we can go sign up tomorrow. "
"No problem, no problem!" He Feng said, "Where do you live, Mr. Xia? I'll ask the driver to pick you up tomorrow morning! "
"No need, no need." Xia Ruofei said, "I have my own car. Mayor He, let's meet at nine o 'clock tomorrow morning at the second entrance of the clock tower. "
"Sure, sure!" He Feng said, "Mr. Xia, see you tomorrow!"
After hanging up the phone, He Feng clenched his fists excitedly. It was as if he had his own fate in his hands.
Xia Ruofei's voice was so young that He Feng guessed that he might be the child of some important leader. That was the only reason why Song Qiming would pay so much attention to him and ask him about such a small thing.
Such young people were often more useful than those leaders who were directly in important positions because no one knew how much power they had behind them.
He Feng felt like he was about to get lucky.
Just as he clenched his fists in celebration, his secretary knocked on the door softly and walked in, just in time to see this scene.
He Feng frowned, and the secretary apologized, "I'm sorry, Mayor He …"
Entering the office without the leader's permission was very likely to leave a rash impression in the leader's mind. Moreover, he seemed to have seen Mayor He lose his composure, which made the secretary even more uneasy.
He Feng was in a good mood, so he didn't argue with the secretary about such a small thing. He just asked lightly, "What's up?"
The secretary quickly said, "Mayor He, the district office just informed us that Secretary Song is about to end his meeting. He asked a few of his team members to go to the courtyard and send him off."
"Got it!" He Feng said.
He immediately tidied up his clothes and quickly left the office.
The District Party Committee and the District Government were in the same compound, but they were in two different office buildings. The two buildings were not far from each other. After He Feng took the elevator downstairs, a few leaders from the District Government had also come downstairs. Everyone walked towards the District Party Committee's office building.
After a while, the lobby of the district office building was filled with people. These were the deputy leaders of the district office, the National People's Congress, and the People's Political Consultative Conference. Everyone stood in groups of two or three, chatting, and occasionally glancing at the elevator.
As they chatted, a lot of people looked at He Feng with curiosity and envy. The scene at noon had already been seen by these politically sensitive leaders.
After waiting for about ten minutes, someone received a call saying that Song Qiming and his team had come out.
Everyone saw the elevator stop at the floor of the district office building, and it started to go down.
As a result, the leaders who were originally scattered in twos and threes immediately lined up in two rows. It was as if there was an invisible hand commanding these people. They found their positions according to their positions and ranks without any error.
When everyone stood still, the elevator reached the first floor. Song Qiming took the lead and walked out of the elevator. Behind him were the leaders of the district committee and the accompanying staff. The group of people walked out of the elevator in a grandiose manner.
When they reached the lobby, Song Qiming stopped and said to the district secretary, Jiang Changhe, "Comrade Changhe, I'll see you off here!"
Jiang Changhe said, "Secretary, don't you want to stay for dinner? The cafeteria is already … "
"No, no!" Song Qiming waved his hand and laughed heartily. "My wife and my daughter just arrived at Sanshan today. I have to hurry back and report to them!"
The leaders in the district immediately cooperated with him and laughed at the right time.
Jiang Changhe smiled and said, "If that's the case, then we won't dare to keep you! Take care, Secretary! "
Song Qiming smiled and nodded. He shook hands with Jiang Changhe and the others, then walked to the door with his secretary and entourage.
The district leaders who received the notice were all waiting near the door. When Song Qiming walked to them, he shook hands with them one by one.
When Song Qiming walked to He Feng and reached out his hand, He Feng quickly grasped it with both hands and said in a low voice, "Secretary Song, I've done what you asked me to do. I'll accompany Mr. Xia to the school tomorrow morning to register."
Song Qiming stopped in front of He Feng, smiled and nodded. "Okay, Comrade He Feng, thank you for your hard work …"
He Feng was overjoyed. He quickly said, "You're welcome, Secretary. It's nothing …"
"Okay!" Song Qiming nodded and said, "I'll leave this to you. Remember, you must satisfy Mr. Xia. That's my only request."
"Understood, I'll keep your instructions in mind!" He Feng quickly said.
After Song Qiming said that, Xia Ruofei's image in He Feng's mind became even higher.
Song Qiming nodded, then walked to the other district leaders who were waiting to shake hands with He Feng.
He Feng was still standing in the line. His expression was very calm, but his heart was already pounding.
Song Qiming purposely stopped beside He Feng for a while and said a few words to him. Although the two of them lowered their voices and no one could hear what they were saying, He Feng could clearly feel that the district leaders were looking at him with a meaningful gaze.
Even the district leader, Jiang Changhe, was among them.
