Chen Bin hung up the phone. Wu Gang, who was holding the phone on the other end of the line, was stunned. After a while, he sighed. Chen Bin was really …
Wu Gang wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say to Chen Bin. Although he and Chen Bin still had each other's phone number, they hadn't contacted each other for the past few years. If Chen Bin hadn't called today, he wouldn't even know if Chen Bin had changed his phone number.
However, although they hadn't contacted each other, Wu Gang also knew that Chen Bin's career had improved in the past few years. He had to admit that Chen Bin was a person who was good at currying favor. When he just graduated from the Party School, he competed with someone for the position of Deputy Director of the District Bureau of Industry and Commerce. He was pushed down and sat on the bench for a while. But in the end, he got back on his feet. Nobody knew how he got on good terms with Lu Huaiyu, the Director of the Municipal Bureau of Industry and Commerce. Now he was the Office Director of the Municipal Bureau of Industry and Commerce. With his current position, as long as Lu Huaiyu promoted him, he could be transferred to the bureau at any time.
Thinking of Chen Bin's sudden call, Wu Gang shook his head. Chen Bin had always been a very practical person. When he was a deputy county magistrate, Chen Bin would take the initiative to contact him. Later, when he was transferred to the Water Conservancy Bureau, Chen Bin did not have much contact with him. Today's call was really the sun rising from the west.
Wu Gang didn't bother to think about things he couldn't understand. He looked at the time. It was time to buy groceries and go home to cook. Now he was almost half a family man.
Time passed quickly. Chen Xing attended the city's cadres' meeting in the morning. At noon, he attended the city's luncheon at the Jiangcheng Hotel. This was considered as an official acquaintance with the party and government cadres of Jiangcheng.
Jiangcheng Hotel was a state-owned enterprise under the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee. It was reformed from the former guesthouse of the Municipal Party Committee. The current General Manager of the hotel, Lv Shicheng, was also the Deputy Director of the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee.
Chen Xing had just arrived in Jiangcheng. The temporary residence arranged for him by the city was a luxurious suite on the eighth floor of the Jiangcheng Hotel.
After the lunch banquet, Chen Xing came to Room 808 on the eighth floor, accompanied by Ma Xiaoning, the director of the Municipal Government Office.
Mayor, you've just arrived, and I don't know if you have any requirements for housing, so I've temporarily arranged this place for you. If you're not satisfied, you can tell me, and I'll immediately arrange something else. Ma Xiaoning said to Chen Xing as she walked to the door of the room with the key in her hand.
No, stay here for now. Chen Xing smiled and waved his hand. He glanced at the room number and raised his eyebrows slightly. Obviously, this room was carefully arranged. Some leaders were superstitious and liked some auspicious numbers. The people in Jiang City did not know his temperament, so they arranged an auspicious room like 808 for him.
The door opened, and Chen Xing followed Ma Xiaoning into the room. Ma Xiaoning introduced, "Mayor, this is a large suite with a living room outside and a master bedroom inside. There's also a study near the balcony."
Chen Xing looked around the room. There was no doubt that the specifications of this room were very high, at least 100 square meters. Just the living room in front of him was dozens of square meters, and the decoration was also of a high standard. At least in Chen Xing's opinion, it was not inferior to a five-star hotel.
Ma Xiaoning seemed to have seen through Chen Xing's thoughts. She smiled and said, "Mayor, although our Jiangcheng Hotel is not a star hotel, the hardware and software facilities are built according to the standard of a five-star hotel, and even slightly beyond that. Therefore, the conditions are superb."
Hearing Ma Xiaoning's words, Chen Xing glanced at her. Ma Xiaoning was really good at reading people's minds.
As they were talking, Ma Xiaoning took out a document from her bag and said, "Mayor, this is the staff information of the secretarial department. See if there's anything that you're satisfied with."
"Okay, put it on the table first, and I'll take a look later." Chen Xing nodded. This was about the selection of his secretary, and he should indeed decide on it as soon as possible. Otherwise, it would be inconvenient for him to do things without someone by his side.
Speaking of secretaries, Chen Xing suddenly thought of Huang Jianghua and sighed secretly. If nothing had happened to Huang Jianghua, he could still bring Huang Jianghua to his side. Putting everything else aside, Huang Jianghua had been with him for so long, and he was the best at reading his mind. With such a considerate person by his side, there was no doubt that it would save him a lot of trouble. It was a pity that something had happened to Huang Jianghua.
"Mayor, then you can take your lunch break. I won't disturb you anymore." Ma Xiaoning said.
Watching Ma Xiaoning leave, Chen Xing casually sat down on the sofa. Today was his first day in office, and he had just finished socializing at noon, so Chen Xing was not sleepy at all.
After sitting for a while, Chen Xing picked up the document that Ma Xiaoning put on the table and looked at it. Soon, he shook his head. Chen Xing was not very satisfied with the candidates recommended in the document. The reason was that they had been working in the secretarial department for several years. Why would Chen Xing dare to use such people? Chen Xing knew better than anyone else how deep the pool of water in the government departments was. Not to mention that these people in the secretarial department did not have any complicated backgrounds, just based on the fact that these candidates had been working in the secretarial department for several years, Chen Xing ruled them out first.
When Chen Xing chose secretaries, he liked to choose young and energetic people. His preference could be seen from the fact that he chose Huang Jianghua as his secretary in Nanzhou. Of course, a clean background was also important.
Putting the document on the table, Chen Xing rubbed his eyes and quickly closed his eyes.
After closing his eyes for half an hour, Chen Xing did not really sleep. He spent more time thinking about things. It was his first time in Jiang City, so Chen Xing was more thinking about how to carry out his work in the future.
He did not know whether he fell asleep or not. When Chen Xing opened his eyes, he looked at the time. It was already half past one. He immediately stood up and went out.
"Mayor, why don't you rest a little longer?" Outside the door, Ma Xiaoning's figure suddenly appeared.
"Director Ma, you have been outside all this time? Chen Xing was stunned for a moment.
"Well, since I don't have long to go home at noon, I might as well wait outside for you to take your lunch break. Otherwise, you don't have a secretary now. If you happen to need someone to order you around, it will be somewhat inconvenient." Ma Xiaoning said with a smile.
"Director Ma, it's my first time here. I don't have so many things to do." Chen Xing shook his head and smiled. As he spoke, he took a deep look at Ma Xiaoning. On the first day he took office, the director of the Municipal Government Office had already left a deep impression on him.
"Mayor, are you going to the Municipal Government Office now?" Ma Xiaoning asked with a smile.
"Yes, let's go." Chen Xing nodded.
The two went downstairs. There was already a car waiting downstairs. It was arranged by Ma Xiaoning long ago. Even Chen Xing had to admit that Ma Xiaoning was very thorough.
In the Municipal Government Office. After Ma Xiaoning brought Chen Xing into the office, she asked Chen Xing if he was satisfied with the office. Seeing that Chen Xing had no objection, Ma Xiaoning left with a peace of mind.
Looking at Ma Xiaoning's back as she left, Chen Xing was lost in thought. For the first time, he seriously looked at the director of the Municipal Government Office. This person was not only smooth and slick, but also impeccable in his work. Unconsciously, he left a good impression on people. This person was really not simple.
Thinking that there would be plenty of time to understand this person in the future, Chen Xing did not think too much. He walked to the back of the desk and sat down.
