Ding Yijing replied calmly. "I am already experienced. What's there to worry about? I think you just don't miss me. "
Li Rui doesn't know if he should cry or laugh. But he cannot tell her the truth. Your husband might be under surveillance by his enemies, and it will be bad if you come over to accompany me. He thought about it and felt that if he was more careful, he should not be discovered. At least tonight, there should be no problems. He will be leaving from the Investment Promotion Agency and not the County Government. Most people will not know about this, and they will not be able to spy on him. "Fine. Come over."
After hanging up, Li Rui sent a message to Ding Yijing. He told her to check in at Huangting Hotel when she arrives at Shuanghe County. He will rush over after work. He did not tell her over the phone because it was not convenient to do so in front of the taxi driver. Ding Yijing replied that she understands and did not contact him after that.
After work in the afternoon, the competition continued. The first segment was the last segment of the competition for the position of Deputy Chief. Voting and voting for three candidates.
In fact, there were loopholes in this kind of voting method. For example, there were potential candidates who could bribe the voters in advance. However, when it came to the specific position at hand, all opportunistic methods would be difficult to succeed because there was still one more hurdle waiting for them, and that was the final round of actual combat. Even if a candidate who used underhanded means successfully bribed the voters and successfully entered the top three, it would be useless if they didn't have any achievements in attracting investment.
The voting lasted for more than half an hour, and the top six candidates for the position of Deputy Chief were decided. The results were interesting. The top three candidates had about the same number of votes, and the last three candidates had about the same number of votes. But there was a big gap between the top three and the last three candidates. From this, it could be seen that the last three cadres were not recognized by the public, or rather, they were not popular. Of course, this vote proved once again that the eyes of the masses were sharp.
After the three candidates for the position of Deputy Chief were selected, Chief Lin Lewen recorded their names. After that, the second segment was to select the candidates for the positions of Investment Promotion Office, Investment Service Office, and General Affairs Office. General Affairs Office Director Liu Qiang had failed his training and was demoted to an ordinary cadre. He still enjoys the benefits of a Director. Investment Promotion Office Director Gao Jun was demoted to be the Deputy Chief of the Office. But he did not give up and tried his best to be the Deputy Chief this morning. In the end, he got the third position. This means that he is still recognized by his colleagues in the Bureau. But no matter if he is successful or not, he had vacated his position as the Investment Promotion Office Director. As for Investment Service Office Director Li Shusen, he had been demoted because of his poor attitude. (He had mocked Gu Yingtong during the training session).
Due to the competition for the positions of the three department directors, compared to the competition for the position of the deputy director in the morning, there were more candidates, and it took longer. Fortunately, the competition in the morning had accumulated enough experience and lessons, so the efficiency had improved a lot. Even so, it took another half an hour before it finally ended. Three candidates for each of the three positions were selected, and there were a total of nine candidates.
Among these nine candidates, only four of them were on the permanent staff, and the remaining five were on the permanent staff. Although this result does not mean that the quality of the permanent staff is better than the permanent staff, it still shows something.
After the competition ended, Bureau Chief Lin Lewen struck while the iron was still hot. He announced that the bureau would give a total of twelve candidates (three deputy bureau chiefs and three department directors), and each of them would receive a starting fund of three thousand RMB. This could also be considered as "financial support" to encourage and encourage them to go out for actual combat. 3,000 RMB is not a lot, but it is also not a small amount. It is enough for the candidates to travel for three weeks.
Of course, if some of the candidates are not confident and want to invite their colleagues to form an investment promotion team, then the 3,000 RMB will not be enough. But the Bureau is only sponsoring 3,000 RMB, and it doesn't matter if the candidates have enough or not. If the candidates do not have enough, they will have to think of other ways to get more money. In short, it is not easy to get the position of Deputy Chief and Department's Director. If the candidates want to stand out from the rest, they will have to put in more effort.
The competition ended, and the Investment Promotion Agency's staff can get off work. Li Rui had wanted to get two investment promotion experts to form a small team with him to attend the Provincial Investment Promotion Expo in Beijing next week. But it's already late, and he can only wait until tomorrow.
When the staff got off work, Lin Lewen, Fan Zhigang, and the other leaders sent Li Rui out.
On the way out, Lin Lewen said. "It's been a while since the Bureau is so lively. Everyone, no matter if it's the staff or the staff, is so energetic. I can't even recognize them."
Fan Zhigang added. "Today's competition is a success, and the atmosphere is so lively. It's like Lunar New Year, and the only thing missing is firecrackers. County Magistrate Li, I really admire you. You are so capable. You managed to get everyone to work so hard. "
Another deputy director exclaimed, "After this event, I can already foresee that our department's career will be greatly improved. Tsk, tsk … County Magistrate Li is really amazing. "
Li Rui smiled and said, "Everyone, don't flatter me. Whether or not this activity is effective will depend on the actual results in three weeks. Let's not talk about it now. Let's wait and see! "
After walking out, Lin Lewen and the rest saw Li Rui hailing a taxi and volunteered to drive him back. Li Rui will not accept their offer. After all, he is going to Huangting Hotel to meet his goddess. After rejecting their offer, he flagged down a taxi and drove back to Huangting Hotel.
After Li Rui's taxi left, an inconspicuous black Mercedes-Benz parked outside the Investment Promotion Agency's courtyard. A well-dressed man in his thirties is in the driver's seat. He followed Li Rui's taxi and took out his phone to make a call. "Uncle, I am following Li Rui. He had just left the Investment Promotion Agency and should have finished work. He is heading towards the west of the city, but I don't know where he is going."
Hu Zhixin's voice came from the other side of the phone. "Okay, you don't have to worry about where he's going. Just follow him. If he's going to have a meal, find a way to find out who he's eating with and if there's a woman. If he's going to have a date with a woman, that's even easier. Remember where they're meeting and keep an eye on that woman."
That man replied. "Yes, Uncle. I will remember everything."
Hu Zhixin reminded him. "Stay away from him. Don't let him discover you. Also, if you find anything important, inform me immediately. "
That man nodded and hung up. He stared at the taxi in front of him. The taxi first headed west. After reaching the first intersection, it turned right and headed north. After driving for more than 500 meters, it arrived at another intersection. It waited for the red light there, then crossed the intersection, turned on the right turn signal, and slowly stopped by the side of the road. The place where it stopped was the west gate of the Imperial Court Hotel's backyard parking lot.
When the man saw this, his eyes suddenly emitted two strange lights. He drove through the intersection and slowed down. Then, he saw Li Rui get out of the car and stride into the backyard of the Imperial Court Hotel.
"Haha … you took a detour to the back entrance? Interesting. Are you afraid of being discovered? You must be up to no good! It's a pity you didn't expect this Imperial Court Hotel to be my turf. Since you are here, I will be able to keep an eye on you. "
A smug smile appeared on that man's face. It was as if he had seen his prey stumble into his own trap. Then, without hesitation, he stepped on the accelerator and rushed to the backyard. He turned inside and followed Li Rui's footsteps.
Li Rui didn't know he was being followed. He just walked inside. He had stayed in the Imperial Court Hotel before and knew the general environment of this hotel. It was similar to the Shengjing Hotel in Qingyang City. They were both facing south, with a square and parking lot in front and a backyard behind. They were both located at the northeast corner of the crossroads. In order to avoid being seen by people he knew if he entered from the main entrance, he deliberately asked the taxi to stop at the entrance of the backyard. Then, he entered from the backyard to reduce all possible risks.
Now, the man who had been following him was driving a Mercedes-Benz. He quickly passed him and drove to the parking lot. He didn't notice at all. He was only thinking about who he should choose as a representative to attend the fair in Beijing.
After the man parked the car, he didn't get out of the car in a hurry. He waited until Li Rui entered the building from the back door of the hotel building. Then, he got out of the car and quickly chased after him.
Just as he ran to the back door, a male security guard in charge of the parking lot happened to pass by. When he saw him, he hurriedly greeted, "Hello, Mr. Hu!"
The man waved at him impatiently, indicating that he shouldn't bother him. Then, he got into the door. He didn't follow Li Rui's footsteps. Instead, he took the stairs and ran to the security monitoring center on the second floor. He rushed to the center and shouted, "Show me the real-time monitoring in the elevator!"
"Yes, Mr. Hu!"
"I'll do it!"
"Why are you here, Mr. Hu?"
Two security guards and a team leader in the center saw him suddenly arrive. They all stood up and greeted him. The team leader walked to him with a flattering smile, trying to get close to him.
The man said with a cold face, "Get lost. Don't talk nonsense!"
