No one could figure out how Li Rui made friends with the provincial capital's Gao family, and it was obviously not an ordinary friendship. Otherwise, the girl would not have casually lent the couple a BMW. Well, no wonder he dared to mock Fang Qiang's low status. It turned out that he was waiting for this. Yes, he was friends with the daughter of a deputy provincial chief. How could he be interested in a small leader?
Du Minsheng looked at Li Rui without saying anything, and there was a trace of a smile in his eyes. He naturally knew about Gao Zixuan, but he did not expect that the BMW was lent to them by Gao Zixuan. However, with Gao Zixuan's wealth and her relationship with Lu Qingman, lending the couple a BMW was not a problem.
Unfortunately, Du Minsheng did not expect that although Gao Zixuan had a close relationship with Lu Qingman, her relationship with Li Rui was not much worse than her relationship with Lu Qingman.
Li Rui saw that Fang Qiang suddenly became listless and sneered in his heart. You think you can defeat me? You are too arrogant. I don't even need to use my family's power. Just the power of Zixuan's family is enough to scare you half to death. Hmph, you are jealous when you see me driving a fifth series BMW. I haven't told you yet. Zixuan gave me an X5 and asked in a flat tone, "Secretary-General Fang, I have already explained the origin of the BMW. Do you have any questions?"
"Ah?"
Fang Qiang looked up at him nervously and said, "You … What did you just say?"
He was so flustered that he did not even hear Li Rui's words. It was fine that he did not hear it, but he even asked such a question. It could be said that he made a fool of himself. Everyone saw that he was frightened by Li Rui and made a fool of himself. They all despised him.
Li Rui had to say it again.
After Fang Qiang heard it, he shook his head and said, "No, no more questions. Ha … Haha, you … You explained it clearly. Everything is fine now. I am actually doing this for your own good. I am doing this for the sake of protecting the outstanding young leaders. I am not deliberately targeting you. Xiao Li, don't misunderstand. "
Li Rui said, "Then is it still a problem for me to drive a BMW to a star hotel?"
Fang Qiang knew that he was deliberately slapping his own face in front of everyone, but he could not retaliate. He could only smile and say, "No, since there is no problem with the origin of the BMW, of course there is no problem. Besides, the day you drove on a holiday, not a working day................................ ..............................
When everyone saw that he had changed from arrogance to deference to Li Rui, and even denied what he had said before, they all sneered.
.................................................... Can I go back to work? "
Du Minsheng nodded and said, "You can go back to your work."
After Li Rui left, Fang Qiang realized that he had been standing the whole time. He smiled awkwardly and sat back down.
But just as he sat down, Du Minsheng stood up and said, "The meeting is over." He picked up a pen and a glass of water and walked to the door.
After he left, the others also stood up and walked out. Fang Qiang was the only one left sitting in his seat. He had made a fool of himself again. He realized this himself. He was ashamed and angry. His face was as red as a steamed crab. He was ashamed, angry, regretful, and helpless. After a while, he suddenly raised his hand and slapped himself.
Someone spread the news of the small incident at the meeting. In a short time, it spread all over the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee. It even began to spread to other departments of the Municipal Party Committee. Many people knew that the First Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Li Rui, had humiliated the Deputy Secretary General of the Municipal Party Committee, Fang Qiang, in a meeting of the General Office. Fang Qiang had no choice but to bow to Li Rui. Under the influence of this incident, people re-evaluated the comprehensive strength of Fang Qiang and Li Rui. They all had their own plans.
Zheng Zijuan found out about this from an unknown channel. She called Li Rui to confirm it. After hearing that it was true, she supported him and told him that if Fang Qiang dared to retaliate against him, she would help him.
Li Rui thanked her. He thought, "Haha, Fang Qiang has been scared out of his wits. He probably won't dare to retaliate against me."
The next day, Song Chaoyang also knew about this incident. He also confirmed it with Li Rui. Li Rui reported the ins and outs of this incident to him in detail.
Song Chaoyang heard that Fang Qiang held a grudge against Li Rui because of the joke at the banquet. Therefore, Fang Qiang went to the General Office to slander him. He made up stories out of nothing and added fuel to the fire. His behavior was so despicable that he was furious. Why was he furious? Because there were two reasons for his anger. The first reason was that he felt the same as Li Rui. Fang Qiang's methods were too despicable and infuriating. The second reason was that Li Rui was his personal secretary. Fang Qiang picked on Li Rui to make trouble for Song Chaoyang. To put it bluntly, one had to look at the master before beating a dog. Moreover, Fang Qiang targeted him, the confidant of the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. Wasn't it the same as slapping his face? It was equivalent to indirectly challenging his authority as the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee!
How could he tolerate this?!
Song Chaoyang sneered and said, "He doesn't meddle in politics. He only knows how to stir up trouble and play tricks all day long. How can such a person be a leader? Anyway, my Municipal Party Committee doesn't need such a leader. Hmph, it just so happens that the old director of the Municipal Record Office has just retired due to illness. Let Secretary-General Fang take over. Doesn't he like to stir up trouble? The Municipal Record Office just happens to be free and casual. He has plenty of time to stir up trouble. "
The Municipal Record Office's full name was the Office of the Municipal Record Compilation Committee. From this name, one could tell how cold this office was. In fact, it was one of the coldest offices in the municipal government. Not only was there no money, but it was also a boring place. In theory, if anyone was transferred to the Municipal Record Office, there was only one way to survive: to eat and wait for death.
Although Fang Qiang didn't have anyone to rely on now, he was still the Deputy Secretary-General of the Municipal Party Committee and the First Deputy Director of the General Office. No matter where he was, he was still a person of importance. However, if he was transferred to the Municipal Record Office as a Director, although he was also a Divisional Director, his status would be worlds apart. It was equivalent to falling from the waist of a mountain to the foot of a mountain. His arms and legs would be broken, and there would be no possibility for him to climb back up again. At his current age, he could still work for more than ten years. If he spent these ten years sitting on a cold bench in the Municipal Record Office, one could imagine how miserable and bleak it would be.
However, he couldn't blame others. If he wanted to blame someone, he could only blame himself. Of all people, he just had to pick a fight with the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. Wasn't that just asking for trouble? Fortunately, Li Rui was kind and gentle. He rarely bullied others and didn't have any thoughts of revenge. Otherwise, if he took advantage of this opportunity to add insult to injury, he would only end up in an even more miserable state.
After hearing his boss talk about this, Li Rui was a little curious. He was curious about how he knew about this. Although he often went out, it was always for official business. How could he have time to listen to this kind of nonsense? Moreover, no one would have the guts to suddenly mention this kind of thing to him. As for the rest of the time, he was basically working in the office. Naturally, he wouldn't hear the news outside. After thinking about it, he guessed that Secretary-General Du Minsheng, Zheng Zijuan, and Xiao Dawei came to report to him and chatted about it. Among them, Du Minsheng was more likely to mention it. Of course, the reason why Du Minsheng told him about this was definitely not to find something to talk about, nor to pass on a private message to him. To a large extent, Du Minsheng wanted to complain about this injustice to him. At the same time, he also wanted to complain to him and strive to get the support and protection of his boss. And now, it seemed that Du Minsheng had achieved his goal. Thinking about this, he felt that his boss and uncle was very close to him.
That afternoon, there was good news from the province. Wen Tianlong, the Secretary-General of the Provincial Party Committee, personally called Song Chaoyang and told him that the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee had decided to hold the first Provincial Poverty Alleviation and Development Conference in September this year. The location of the conference would be in Qingyang City. This was also a major reward for Qingyang City's poverty alleviation work leading the province. And this was just a spiritual reward. Another substantial reward was that the Provincial Poverty Alleviation Office would allocate 40 million yuan from the national poverty alleviation fund allocated to the province. This fund would be used to support the poverty alleviation work in the national and provincial poor counties under Qingyang City's jurisdiction, as well as the post-disaster reconstruction work in the poverty-stricken areas of Shuanghe County (last year's flood).
In addition, Wen Tianlong also gave Song Chaoyang, or to be precise, gave the leadership of Qingyang City a difficult problem. He wanted Qingyang City to choose a location as soon as possible as the location of the Provincial Poverty Alleviation Conference. Choosing a location for the conference was not a difficult problem. The difficult part was that this conference was not an ordinary provincial conference. It was the first poverty alleviation conference in Shannan Province. The first conference had a historical significance. More importantly, the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Huang Xinnian, would attend and preside over the conference. This could be said to be one of the most important conferences in the province. The importance of the conference also determined the importance of all matters related to the conference. Therefore, the selection of the conference location was a real problem. But compared to the two pieces of good news, this problem was not even worth mentioning.
