Others might not know what kind of person Liu Lihai was, but how could she not know? Although he was still very young and had just been promoted to the head of the Publicity Department, the power behind him was far stronger than Ma Jinxiu's. Moreover, the standing committee members were all well aware of the power behind Liu Lihai. Therefore, Liu Lihai had enough power and political capital to challenge her.
Now in the whole standing committee, Ma Jinxiu was actually most worried that Liu Lihai would openly disagree with her. She also knew that what Liu Lihai said was very reasonable, but reason and power were power. Who didn't want to be the secretary of the county magistrate? Besides, it was not easy for Ma Jinxiu to get to where she was today.
It had always been much more difficult for a woman to work in the officialdom than a man. On the one hand, she needed to have a certain level of ability, and on the other hand, she had to be good-looking. These two aspects were fully reflected in Leng Hongyan, but as a professional Ma Jinxiu, she was so unwilling to admit that she was inferior to Leng Hongyan in everything.
Therefore, Ma Jinxiu had been working hard to get the position. She didn't know why she was not as lucky as Leng Mei, or she had never met a male leader who appreciated her. Of course, there were also male leaders who conspired against her, but she always used the standard of Song Lihai to ask men. But in the whole of Jingjiang, how many Song Lihai could there be?
Ma Jinxiu tried her best to attract the attention of Secretary Wu Haotian, but Secretary Wu Haotian was not Song Lihai. It seemed that he was not a man who was close to women. He was polite to women who could be polite, and he would ask his secretary to receive and deal with those who could be kept at a distance. On this point, not only Ma Jinxiu was afraid of Jingjiang, but other female leaders also knew to avoid him.
Of course, Ma Jinxiu relied on her own cleverness and succeeded in making Secretary Wu Haotian send her to Lin County. But after all, she was not Secretary Wu Haotian's person. She and he only had a working relationship, which sometimes was not a relationship at all. If she could not enter his personal circle, the working relationship was nothing. Ma Jinxiu was well aware of this. Because of this, she had been flattering Leng Mei and pleasing Leng Mei. She had to do it whether she wanted to or not.
Right now, Ma Jinxiu was stuck between a rock and a hard place. However, she still tried her best to keep a smile on her face and spoke to Liu Lihai in a gentle voice, "Little Department Head Liu's words are still worth reflecting on. Now, please continue to express your opinions. Let's talk about the next step, how to solve the problem of Lin County. "
As soon as Ma Jinxiu's words fell, the Standing Committee began to discuss again. At this time, Ma Jinxiu was a little regretful. The reason why she held the Standing Committee was to test the waters. That was why she deliberately did not hold a meeting and did not listen to Liu Lihai's opinion on the problem of Shi Zhilin's staying. And she was thinking that if this Standing Committee achieved her goal, it would be equivalent to taking a solid first step, which would create a fait accompli for everyone, that was, she would be the successor of Lin County's secretary.
Caught off guard, Ma Jinxiu was caught off guard by Liu Lihai's strong opposition. If it weren't for the several Standing Committee members who changed the topic to the atmosphere of real discussion and gave Ma Jinxiu a buffer, she really didn't know and dare not believe what kind of blow this Standing Committee was to her.
During the discussion of the Standing Committee, a trace of doubt suddenly flashed in Ma Jinxiu's heart. Could it be that Liu Lihai deliberately wanted to make her and her contradict each other, so that she would become an isolated secretary, and Liu Lihai wanted to establish her prestige? Did such a young Liu Lihai really want to take advantage of the situation?
The thought flashed through Ma Jinxiu's mind. The current situation did not allow her to think about other aspects, because everyone's eyes were focused on her, so she said after the discussion of the Standing Committee, "The Standing Committee is the place where everyone can speak freely. It's good to have arguments, which proves that everyone is fully exercising the power in their hands. Besides, the problems left behind in any session are all our problems, and we need to focus our energy to solve them and face them. Without everyone's support and help, I will only be a county magistrate. No matter how capable I am, it will be useless.
Therefore, facing the problem of Lin County, I think it's better to focus on gathering everyone's opinions and synthesizing everyone's opinions, and then we can work out a relevant solution. I don't know if the Standing Committee members think that my decision is appropriate? " Ma Jinxiu thought about it and decided to speak as gently as possible. Politics has always been the product of balance and compromise. Whether it was quarreling or calmly discussing, in the end, everyone had to take a step back.
As soon as Ma Jinxiu concluded, Liu Lihai was even more disappointed. If Ma Jinxiu held this Standing Committee because she wanted to take charge of the overall situation, then her conclusion was tantamount to exposing her purpose. Moreover, her words were meant to please everyone. In this case, what was the meaning and value of her solving the problem of Shi Zhilin?
On the contrary, it made the local cadres of Lin County think that they had found a chance to redress, and misunderstood that they would be the masters of the country. If not, why would a peacemaker like Lao Wu stand up and speak?
This was a failure of the Standing Committee. For Liu Lihai, he once again believed that whether to hold a meeting or not was actually a skill. However, such a skill was summed up when he witnessed Ma Jinxiu's eagerness. This was not what Liu Lihai wanted to see. He could sum up such a lesson from others, but he did not want this person to be Ma Jinxiu.
For some reason, Liu Lihai was so depressed and depressed at this time. How could there be such a huge difference between women? Of course, his Sister Leng was not ambitious, but Ma Jinxiu was. Once a woman had ambition, it was more difficult to control than a man when she went crazy.
A woman like Ma Jinxiu had good looks and academic qualifications. Once she met a leader who appreciated her, she would definitely be able to mix in the officialdom more than Leng Hongyan. Because she wanted power, and because she did not want feelings. At least in the eyes of Liu Lihai, Ma Jinxiu had not had a lover so far, not even a rumored boyfriend. This was probably something that his Sister Leng could not imagine.
It was right for a woman to love. How many women who loved official positions could do better than men? Didn't Wu Zetian, who was full of ability, return power to men at the last moment of her life? In the early Qing Dynasty, after three generations of filial piety, she did not dare to monopolize power, but was willing to assist her son and grandson.
For many years, women were not needed on the battlefield, and women were not needed in the arena of power. Leng Hongyan was clear about this. Ma Jinxiu did not understand this, and she was trying every means to grab power like men.
Power was not so easy to grab, especially for women. In the future, the promotion also had to meet the right person and the right fate. How many men did not sleep with her in vain? When she was not pregnant with a man's child, how many men wanted to take on those responsibilities in the future? For men, when they could not take responsibility, they would not take the initiative to take responsibility.
Ma Jinxiu wanted to climb up. In order to climb up, she could pay any price. This was Liu Lihai's new understanding of her at this moment. Besides, this time the Standing Committee made him extremely disappointed with Ma Jinxiu.
In the nearly one year since Ma Jinxiu came to Lin County, she had always appeared in Lin County with a weak image. Her fear of Shi Zhilin had long been deeply rooted in people's hearts. As soon as Shi Zhilin fell, she wanted to change her weakness from a slave to a general. How could it be so easy?
Not to mention that this was the officialdom, even if it was not in the officialdom, Ma Jinxiu's wish would be difficult to achieve. Besides, when the officials in China appeared according to their official position, the authority brought by their position was only superficial. What really made people fear and revere was not the official position itself, but the official's personal charm. Only those officials with political wisdom and extraordinary means would really be in awe of them from the bottom of their hearts. As for the other things, it was just the official's relationship. When the official left, the relationship would fall.
Compared with Shi Zhilin, Ma Jinxiu lacked too many things. This was clear to Liu Lihai from the failure of the Standing Committee. Ma Jinxiu did not have Shi Zhilin's shrewdness, nor did she have his toughness and means of dealing with people. Moreover, her judgment of the situation was far worse than that of Shi Zhilin. She thought that she could naturally take over Shi Zhilin, which was a very absurd idea. Of course, before Liu Lihai met Secretary Guo Baoxin, didn't he also think that Ma Jinxiu would take over?
When the Secretary sent his secretary, Wan Shengli, down, Liu Li Hai finally understood that in the bureaucracy, it was important to stand on whose side. Those who were in the middle would also be promoted, but that was something that would only be considered after promoting their own people. This was something that Liu Lihai's experience and awareness were very strong this time.
At this Standing Committee, the three questions raised by Ma Jinxiu had nothing to do with Liu Lihai on the surface, but he also knew that no matter which question it was, it was intrinsically related to Shi Zhilin. He had been trying his best to avoid Shi Zhilin's name from appearing. Even if it was mentioned by people who were not in the officialdom, it was easy to cause conflicts between the dispatched cadres and the local cadres. Besides, such conflicts had been suppressed in Gong Daojin's hands. But in Shi Zhilin's hands, the dispatched cadres' strength was obvious to all, which made the local cadres feel embarrassed. At such a time, Ma Jinxiu still led the crusade against Shi Zhilin, which was obviously pushing the dispatched cadres to the muzzle of the gun. It would be strange if they didn't become harpoons.
Such a Standing Committee meeting was soon dismissed in Ma Jinxiu's hasty summary, and Ma Jinxiu's resentment against Liu Lihai was completely activated in this meeting. She even thought that it was all because of that damn Liu Lihai. This Standing Committee meeting, which was expected to establish Ma Jinxiu's absolute prestige in one fell swoop, ended awkwardly because Liu Lihai did not allow the crusade against Shi Zhilin. And because the Standing Committee did not refute Liu Lihai's words, on the contrary, Liu Lihai's prestige was enhanced, which made Ma Jinxiu angry and annoyed.
In fact, the Standing Committee members who participated in this meeting had held many meetings, although not every Standing Committee meeting could solve the problem. But there had never been a Standing Committee meeting like today, which ended in nothing. But everyone knew in their hearts that Ma Jinxiu looked completely dejected today. At the end of the meeting, she left the meeting in a hurry, so Liu Lihai knew that Ma Jinxiu's prejudice against him would be born from this.
Fortunately, Liu Lihai thought that he was going to leave Lin County, and the following things would be worked out between Wan Shengli and Ma Jinxiu. If he continued to stay in Lin County, Liu Lihai would not say what he said today, and he would not dare to say it. If he offended Ma Jinxiu, it would be extremely difficult to carry out today's work. He was still clear about this. Moreover, women and villains were one. He would try not to offend them if he could.
If Ma Jinxiu, who was so ambitious, found a big leader one day, she would be so charming that Liu Lihai would not be able to resist. How many men could really control their lower bodies?
Some people said that most beautiful women got to the top by sleeping with men. This was not false at all. Ma Jinxiu had been single, and she was probably waiting for a big leader to sleep with her.
For some reason, Liu Lihai imagined Ma Jinxiu like this. Therefore, he still had concerns about her. But he had already said it. Could he take back what he said?
However, at this meeting, basically everyone was clear about one thing. When Ma Jinxiu was the county magistrate, she was now the acting secretary of the county magistrate. She had great power, but her temper was not big. She was still not tough enough, just like when she was the county magistrate. Although the discussion of this Standing Committee was not a major issue, it was a far-reaching watershed in the political circle of Lin County. But this was a far-reaching watershed in the political circle of Lin County. It marked that the strong image formulated by Shi Zhilin was not taken over by Ma Jinxiu. At the same time, Ma Jinxiu wanted to maintain the image of the top leader, but his prestige was greatly reduced.
After the meeting, Secretary Wu intentionally walked with Liu Lihai. He walked half a step behind Liu Lihai and said with a smile, "Minister Xiao Liu, are you still getting used to life in Lin County?"
Liu Lihai turned his head to look at Secretary Wu and nodded gently. He said, "Thank you for your concern, Secretary Wu. There is actually no difference between Lin County and Jingjiang. Whether it is food, accommodation, or customs, they are almost the same. Besides, I have been here for more than a year. I have already gotten used to what I should get used to and what I should be familiar with."
Secretary Wu smiled and said, "You will get used to it." After he finished speaking, he glanced at the others. When he saw that no one was paying attention to him, he lowered his voice and said, "Department Head Liu, a distant relative of mine has opened a new restaurant. They have a very delicious specialty called the Stinky Fish Burger. It's made from fresh fish caught from the river and made into a soup that has been simmered. It's delicious. After work today, shall we go and try it together? "
When Liu Lihai heard that Secretary Wu took the initiative to express goodwill to him, he was a little embarrassed. He shook his head and said with a smile, "Secretary Wu, I'm really sorry. I don't eat fish, and I can't get used to the stinky skin in Lin County. I'm really sorry."
After Liu Lihai finished speaking, he nodded at Wu Shurang and quickly walked a few steps forward. He tried to put as much distance as possible between him and Secretary Wu. After Liu Lihai walked far away, Secretary Wu shook his head helplessly and thought, "This young man really has a personality."
After Liu Lihai returned to his office, the phone in the office rang as soon as he sat down. He looked at the phone and saw that it was from Ma Jinxiu's office. He really didn't want to answer it. He knew what Ma Jinxiu wanted to ask, just like he knew why Secretary Wu wanted him to eat fish. Heroes are born in troubled times.
