Once a person had a background, he or she would have more opportunities than ordinary people. However, in the eyes of the background, everyone below was just a chess piece. When they needed it, they would use it well. When they didn't need it, especially when they had no choice but to give it up, this chess piece could be abandoned at any time.
The subordinates were the chess pieces, and the leader was the player. The leader liked to play this kind of chess because it would make the leader feel the authenticity of power. In addition, it was just like how a general liked to march troops and set up formations. The joy in it was, of course, endless. In fact, the officialdom was really like a chess game, with big and small chess pieces distributed on it. Even if it was a seemingly insignificant chess piece, if used correctly, it could turn the situation around. If used incorrectly, it could also cause the whole game to be lost. Whether one could be invincible in the officialdom depended on whether one had the strategy to understand the whole chess game and whether one had the vision to accurately see each chess piece. Under the calm appearance, the soul-stirring degree of fighting in the dark was better than any palace drama.
The people who mingled in the officialdom talked about one thing every day, busied themselves with one thing, and ran to another thing. Their minds were also thinking about eight or ten things at the same time, and they had to be ready to deal with all kinds of unexpected events at any time. The people who mingled in the officialdom had to be appropriate in every word they said. They had to not only slap the person they wanted to slap, but also flatten the person they wanted to flatten. They had to say it quietly and flawlessly, and at the same time, they had to analyze the hidden meaning behind other people's flawless words. If this wasn't a chess game, then what was it?
When Liu Lihai thought about these theories that he got from Leng Hongyan and Yao Haidong, he would have a bitter smile. At present, he was just a subordinate, and a subordinate like him, whose chess piece should he be? And in the Publicity Department, what kind of chess game should he play to catch them off guard? All of this made Liu Lihai feel a sense of worry. He didn't think that he was the kind of person who was good at playing chess, but now that he was in the middle of it, whether he was willing or not, he had to carefully face the current situation as if he was walking on thin ice.
Just when Liu Lihai was struggling to find a layout, Shi Zhilin temporarily called for a standing committee meeting. The content of this meeting was only one thing, that was to ban numb cars and increase the number of taxis. This matter was reported by County Magistrate Ma Jinxiu to the participants. After Ma Jinxiu's report, the other standing committee members discussed for a while. They were roughly divided into two groups. One was the moderate group, who thought that banning numb cars should be done slowly and give them a buffer stage. The other group thought that the city's image should not be delayed and should be cut quickly. Moreover, if the government's attitude was not ruthless, it would be difficult to ban numb cars thoroughly.
When everyone was talking about it, Secretary Shi Zhilin said, "Minister Xiao Liu, do you have any suggestions on banning numb cars and increasing the number of taxis? You and Mayor Ma are both leaders from Jingjiang, and you are from a big city, so you must have a different view. Tell me, Minister Xiao Liu. "
Liu Lihai never expected that Shi Zhilin would directly mention him and Ma Jinxiu at the standing committee meeting, and he directly wanted to listen to his suggestions, as if he was giving Liu Lihai a lot of face. But what medicine was hidden in the gourd?
Liu Lihai was suddenly stunned.
Ma Jinxiu and other people's eyes fell on Liu Lihai at this time. It seemed that these people would not let him go if he did not say anything. He had to say, "Our Publicity Department will vigorously promote and publicize Secretary Shi's decision."
As soon as Liu Lihai's words fell, Shi Zhilin said with a fake smile, "Minister Xiao Liu, how did your words become my decision? Now we are discussing the decision, as if your Publicity Department is run by me. Besides, the rectification and construction of the city's appearance, doesn't the Publicity Department have the obligation to do a good job in publicity? "
As soon as Shi Zhilin's words fell, Liu Lihai felt embarrassed, and he had to try his best to restrain the embarrassment and anger in his heart. He knew that no matter what he said, Shi Zhilin was very likely to hurt him. In this case, there was no right or wrong in his words. So, Liu Lihai said, "I'm sorry, Secretary Shi, I was wrong. I'm too young, and I don't know enough, so I will keep my personal opinion and learn from the leaders seriously. "
As soon as Liu Lihai's words fell, Shi Zhilin looked at Liu Lihai with a smile and asked, "Minister Xiao Liu, you always say that you will learn from the leaders, learn. I can understand what you said in the past, because you are really not familiar with the work in Lin County. But you have been here for a year, and you are now the head of the Publicity Department, the head of a department. Who else do you want to learn from? Tell me, how long will this learning process take? "
Liu Lihai's face suddenly changed, and the emotions he tried to suppress did not listen to him at this time. He really did not expect that Shi Zhilin would publicly embarrass him at the meeting. As a leader, he should not show his preferences so directly in front of everyone, and he was a newly promoted cadre. Shi Zhilin making this kind of contradiction public was not a good thing for him. But why did he do this?
At this time, Ma Jinxiu also looked at Liu Lihai nervously. She was worried that he would explode. However, after the anger, Liu Lihai still tried his best to control his emotions. He also smiled at Shi Zhilin and said, "Secretary Shi, since you must let me express my opinion, then I will say a few words. But there is no need to discuss the problem of learning today. It is a fact that I am young, and it is also a fact that I have no experience. I need to keep learning and strengthen my ability to work at the grassroots level. This is not a big problem of principle, right? Secretary Shi. But I don't approve of Chenglin County's discussion of the city's appearance as the top priority in order to cater to a certain trend. Lin County is a big agricultural county. We still have a lot of things to do. How to help farmers, how to face the problem of left-behind children, how to guide and solve the problem of employment, these are all things that need to be faced urgently. If we can't solve the problem of employment, how can the numb drivers survive suddenly? Moreover, many numb drivers are disabled. Once the market is banned, they will face the dilemma of having no food for their families.
Yes, Jingjiang City has vigorously banned numb drivers two years ago. But at the same time, Jingjiang has solved the problem of employment for these people. What we are facing now is what jobs to give these people. Is the taxi company set up to serve the citizens, or is it deliberately collecting money? Have we investigated and studied the contradiction between these two problems? Have we listened to the voices of the drivers?
Before we did these work, we forced the Standing Committee to agree to a decision again and again. Other than keeping my own opinion, Secretary Shi, tell me, what else can I do? "
As soon as Liu Lihai finished speaking, everyone in the meeting looked at him. Liu Lihai was very clear that he would definitely be looked at differently if he talked like this at the meeting. However, he pretended not to see other people's expressions, and he didn't want to see anyone's expression. Since he talked like this, he was ready to accept the objections.
However, as soon as Liu Lihai finished speaking, Shi Zhilin glanced at the people present and asked, "Does anyone agree with Minister Liu's proposal? If you agree, raise your hand. If the votes in favor of Minister Liu are the majority, this matter will be suppressed. According to Minister Liu's ideas, we will carry out the next part of the work in Lin County. "
However, after Shi Zhilin's voice fell for a long time, no one dared to raise their hand, and no one dared to speak a word of justice for Liu Lihai. The meeting went on, and the final result, of course, was that the Standing Committee agreed to the proposal and it ended successfully.
As soon as he left the meeting room, Liu Lihai couldn't help but smile bitterly. At the same time, he asked himself very sadly, "What's wrong with me? When I can't change my state, why do I have to say it? Why do I have to talk like this? Besides, his opposition is not only ineffective for Shi Zhilin, but it will also make him more disgusted with him. Instead of that, he should keep silent and keep silent. Unfortunately, he still failed to control his emotions and still said the words that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time. These words were formed when he listened to the taxi driver's conversation last time. And he didn't want Qin Hong to encroach on the hard-earned money of these people at the bottom of the society at all.
As soon as he thought of Qin Hong, Liu Lihai shook his head. How could he make things difficult for Qin Hong again? Leng Hongyan had said that Qin Hong was not his opponent. His opponent was Shi Zhilin. However, the perpetrator of these things was Qin Hong, so he had to let Qin Hong enter his mind from time to time.
After the meeting, Ma Jinxiu winked at Liu Lihai. He immediately understood and followed her to his office.
As soon as she entered Ma Jinxiu's office, she said, "Xiao Liu, what you said today was very good, and your thinking was very good. This is also the thinking that I should have in Lin County. I didn't expect that you would stand at such a high level to see the problems of Lin County. I admire you very much, and I want to learn from you. "
When Ma Jinxiu said these words, she even made a cup of tea for Liu Lihai. Obviously, she was sincere.
Liu Lihai didn't expect that Ma Jinxiu would think so highly of him. He couldn't help but be happy. He looked at her and said, "Mayor Ma, I didn't want to talk today, but Secretary Shi acted as if he was the only one who knew the problem of the whole Lin County and could solve it alone. Of course, I was too impulsive. After all, he is the Secretary of the County Party Committee. It's always my fault to contradict him. And now I'm under the eaves, so I have to bow down. So, County Mayor Ma, I'm still not mature enough. I couldn't control myself. "
