Li Rui said, "Yes, it's possible. Last time you exposed his trick and prevented his plot from succeeding. He may also be holding a grudge, so he took this opportunity to show you his strength. Alas, I really didn't expect so many people to support him. It's a pity that the military district political commissar, Pei Xu, doesn't care. If he could support us, we wouldn't be facing so much pressure. "Song Chaoyang slowly shook his head and said," He's not so easy to win over. The military people in the local leadership usually don't care about things. They're also afraid of offending people. "
Li Rui's heart moved. He suddenly remembered that Pei Xu was Li Xiao Yue's godbrother. Regardless of whether they were really godbrother or sister, their relationship was not ordinary. If he talked to Li Xiao Yue about this and got in touch with Pei Xu, it might not be impossible to get his support.
Song Chaoyang got up and walked around the room, murmuring, "No, the Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Organization Department can't be in his hands. I want to find Dawei and Minister Lu alone. " Li Rui also stood up and said worriedly, "Boss, I'm afraid that the old fox is old friends with these two. You can't easily persuade them." Song Chaoyang said, "Let's find out if they can persuade them first. The worst case scenario is that they do what they want and ignore me, the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. I can only make other arrangements in the Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Organization Department. These two departments are extremely important. How can we not have people in them? "
Li Rui returned to his desk and busied himself for a while before he received a call from Tian Weigang, the Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Government. Tian Weigang first expressed his gratitude to him, then offered to invite him to dinner and asked if he could do him the honor.
Li Rui was a little puzzled after hearing his words. He didn't know why he was thanking him. The one who spoke up for him was his boss, Song Chaoyang, Zheng Zijuan and the Secretary General. It was fine if he thanked the three of them, but why did he thank him? He smiled and said, "Secretary General Tian, you're too polite. But I don't deserve your thanks. I … didn't do anything, did I? You don't have to thank me. Haha. " Tian Weigang smiled and said, "My boss came back and told me that if you didn't stand up and show your support at the critical moment, he really wouldn't have been so confident." Hearing this, Li Rui was even more surprised and said, "I stood up and show my support for Mayor Sun? Is there? "Tian Weigang said meaningfully," Sometimes, you don't need to verbally express your support. "
Li Rui suddenly realized that during the meeting just now, he had poured water for Sun Yaozu. At that time, Sun Yaozu and Yu Heping were mocking each other. He was afraid that they would quarrel, so he went over to ease the situation. Now that he thought about it carefully, Yu Heping was mocking Sun Yaozu's predicament of wanting to drink tea but having no water. He went over to pour water for Sun Yaozu to save his face and indirectly expressed his support for him. Supporting him was equivalent to supporting Secretary General Tian, who he had nominated. After thinking this through, he couldn't help but feel a little proud. He really didn't expect that the things he did unintentionally touched Sun Yaozu and earned the gratitude of Secretary General Tian. This was "unintentional success". He smiled and said, "Secretary General Tian, you're too polite. It's my duty to serve the leaders. I don't deserve your thanks. I appreciate your kindness, but there's no need to eat. "
Tian Weigang shouted, "No, no, you can't not eat. I'm calling to treat you to a meal. Is there any meaning in verbally thanking you? Haha. " Li Rui saw that Tian Weigang was persistent and didn't seem to be perfunctory. He thought for a while and said, "Okay, then I'll accept your invitation. But my boss has something to do these two nights, so I'm not free. When I'm free, I'll give you a call, okay? "Tian Weigang smiled and said," Okay, brother, you're straightforward enough. Then I'll wait for your call. Oh, by the way, I heard that you have a good relationship with the Acting Mayor of the Southern District, Li Ming. Why don't you call him over for dinner and introduce him to me? I'll be his partner in the future. It's not good if we don't get to know each other in advance. "
Li Rui was shocked when he heard this. Other than people in Guan Weiwei's circle and his boss, Song Chaoyang, no one else knew about his good relationship with Li Ming. He always thought that since they knew each other, they had been very secretive about their relationship. But this matter was found out by the Municipal Government's Tian Weigang. If he didn't hear it from his mouth, he wouldn't dare to believe it.
There are no secrets in the officialdom. It's really true!
Since Tian Weigang had already pointed it out, there was no point in hiding it. It was better to just admit it openly. Li Rui said, "Okay, leave this to me. I'll give you a call when I'm ready." Tian Weigang was overjoyed and said, "Then I'll leave everything to you, brother. Hehe."
After hanging up the phone, Li Rui understood that Tian Weigang used the excuse of thanking him, but in fact, he wanted to meet Li Ming. Li Ming was the new mayor of the Southern District. Although he still had the word "Acting" on his head, it was a sure thing that the word would be removed at the beginning of next year. From now on, he was already the most important person in the Southern District's government. If Tian Weigang was transferred to the Southern District as the Executive Deputy Mayor, he would be Li Ming's left and right hand. Sooner or later, the two would have a close relationship.
Speaking of which, the Executive Deputy Leader had always been a very awkward role. On the surface, he was the second in command. Aside from the official position, he was basically the boss. It was reasonable to say that he was also a person with a lot of power. But there was a problem here. Who gave him the power in his hands? Wasn't it given by the official leader? Thus, the second problem arose. Only when the head of the department gave you authority would you be considered a real Executive Deputy Leader. But if the head of the department didn't give you authority, then you were nothing. You might not even be as powerful as an ordinary Deputy Leader. So, there was a very important thing to pay attention to here. Any Executive Deputy Leader must be closely united around the official leader, listen to his words, ask for his favor, and make him happy. In this way, if you make the official leader happy, and the official leader thinks that you are good, then he will give you some power. Then you can get the power in your hands.
If you go against the official leader all day long and don't do anything according to his wishes, he will see you as a thorn in his side. How can he give you the power in your hands? I am afraid that he would rather put the power in the hands of an ordinary Deputy Leader than let you, the Executive Deputy Leader, have it easy. This led to the legendary overarching of power. Once you are overridden, you have no power in your hands. You can't do anything. You can't do anything. You can't make achievements. Without achievements, how can you be promoted by the higher-ups? The road to progress is blocked. This was the bad thing about being overridden.
Therefore, the relationship between the Executive Deputy Leader and the official leader can be said to be love and hate. This kind of relationship is second only to the awkward relationship between the head of the government and the head of the Municipal Party Committee. For example, if the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee is the head of the family, then the mayor of the government can only be the wife of the family. The head of the family is in charge of foreign affairs, and the wife is in charge of the household and the family's finances. When the head of the family speaks, the wife can only listen. As for the other deputy mayors, they are just second wives, concubines, and so on. The Executive Deputy Mayor is the leader of these third-rate roles. She is a second wife with a little status. The second wife's status is lower than the first wife, so she must listen to the first wife's words. If she is obedient, the first wife can let her help with the household chores. This is giving her some power. If the second wife is not obedient, the first wife can lead the other concubines and make the second wife a mere figurehead.
Li Rui understood that Tian Weigang had considered the twists and turns in this matter. That was why he specifically told him to help invite Li Ming, the district chief. He hoped to befriend him at the dining table and gain his favor and trust in the shortest time possible. This way, he would be able to get more power in the division of labor of the district government in the future. Thinking about how the Deputy Secretary-General of the Municipal Government, in order to please his future "first wife", and how he had to humbly call him to ask for help, he couldn't help but feel sad for him. If he pushed himself, he would be sent to the grassroots level by his boss. Wouldn't he also have to go around begging for help and work hard to please the higher-ups?
Sigh, being an official is really not easy!
Today, in addition to the normal official business, Li Rui also had a very urgent matter to arrange, which was to destroy Wang Bin's conspiracy. After eavesdropping on Wang Bin and Feng Bing's conspiracy last night, he realized that Wang Bin's viciousness had reached a very scary level. This guy was also very brave, daring to take revenge and frame the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. If such a villain was not eliminated, Boss Song Chaoyang's work and life in Qingyang City would not be stable.
Li Rui did not know when Wang Bin would take action, but since he had finished his discussion with Feng Bing last night, he estimated that he would take action in the next two days. Therefore, he had to prepare early to avoid being caught off guard.
For most of the afternoon, he had been arranging this matter, weaving a dense and inescapable net for Wang Bin's people. It was fine if they did not take action, but once they took action, they would definitely fall into the net.
In order to have two more witnesses to prevent Wang Bin from being caught, Li Rui also told Secretary-General Du Minsheng and Publicity Minister Zheng Zijuan about this matter.
After hearing it, both of them felt that it was incredible. They had no choice, as Wang Bin was too bold. As a Deputy Director, and a criminal himself, he had the delusion of framing the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. It was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, and such behavior was even more unheard of. Du Minsheng immediately expressed that he was willing to participate in Li Rui's arrangement and be one of the parties involved and witnesses, to see if Wang Bin really had the guts to do so. It was not convenient for Zheng Zijuan to show up at night, but she also agreed to support Li Rui's counterattack on behalf of Song Chaoyang.
