Hou Weidong has been with Zhou Changquan for a long time and knows his preferences clearly. He looked at the camera twice and said, "Secretary Zhou's camera is indeed simple, but the program has been done, so it must be broadcast and it must be on the headlines."

The top leader of the TV station was also by his side and said with a smile: "This is the basic rule. The TV station will not make any mistakes. However, Secretary Zhou's shot is a little worse. Please come and check it."

In fact, it is not that the camera is slightly worse, but that compared with Liu Bing's camera, Hou Weidong thought for a while, and he had already thought about it, suggesting: "Secretary Zhou repeatedly emphasized that affordable housing is a project of the people's hearts, and quality must be paid attention to. This can be used as the center of the program. The camera that Secretary Zhou wore a safety hat to check the quality of the house can be used more."

According to Hou Weidong's idea: Zhou Chang had few people and the camera was not beautiful, so he might as well highlight him and go deep into the front line. In this way, Liu Bing led a large group of people to circle around in a flash, but instead seemed a bit unexpected.

Zhu Jielin and comrades on TV also came up with this idea, but it was only related to Zhou Changquan. They were still a little unsure and worried that they would backfire. At this time, Hou Weidong's thinking coincided with them. Zhu Jielin said happily: "With Director Hou's grasping the opinions, we know how to do it. Send reporters to add a few shots and recombinate them. This is to go deep into the front line, strictly control quality, and make good news related to people's livelihood."

Back at the venue, Zhou Changquan was speaking. According to the practice of Shazhou officialdom in previous years, whoever has the highest official position will be the last speech. Zhou Changquan is the secretary of the Shazhou Municipal Party Committee. Therefore, every time he takes charge is the last speech, and the meeting host generally said in a monotonous manner: "Please give an important speech, please welcome everyone."

Hou Weidong accompanied Zhou Changquan to various venues. He was very familiar with this program. He recently bought a set of ten-volume "General History of China" with one with him. Whenever he encountered such a conference, he would hide in the lounge to read books.

After reading the book for a while, he looked up and listened to Zhou Changquan's speech.

The manuscript used by Zhou Changquan today was first made by the Agricultural Commission, which was said to be the first draft. In fact, it was a formal manuscript that was checked layer by layer.

When it comes to using drafts, Hou Weidong knew that his writing skills were not strong. Therefore, when he assigned a task, he always asked Zhou Changquan the key points of his speech, and then discussed the writing center and outline with the writing unit. After the department made the first draft, as long as there were no principles. He generally did not make major adjustments, but only added some of Zhou Changquan's usual idioms.

In this way, the secretaries in various agencies are much more relaxed. The work of writing is a chore. If you meet a reasonable leader, discuss the outline in advance, and respect the hard work of your comrades afterwards, the secretaries will be much easier, otherwise they will be in great pain.

The department secretary has three fears. One is afraid of suddenly coming to the task, and the notification will be issued in the afternoon, and the manuscript will be required tomorrow. This means that you have to work over night at night, and there is basically no room for thinking; the second is afraid that the leader will throw out a topic very casually, without key points, ideas, and outlines, all rely on the secretary based on experience and imagination; the third is afraid that the leader is half-hearted and not humble. He also likes to modify articles cleverly, and he is to be a secretary of such a leader and says that he is as tired as he is.

Hou Weidong's approach has won praise from the secretaries of various departments and has received a lot of praise.

Of course, the reason why Hou Weidong did not pay much attention to revising manuscripts and respected the labor achievements of the department was that on the one hand, Zhou Changquan was very eloquent, had clear ideas, and he understood a lot, stood at a high angle, and had a deep understanding of the problems. Therefore, he had to prepare the manuscript in advance when speaking at a conference, but at most he only looked at the title. As long as he started, the manuscript became a decoration.

It was just twelve o'clock that Zhou Changquan had just talked about the second item. Hou Weidong looked at the watch. Zhou Changquan had been speaking for at least forty minutes. According to his speech habits, each speech usually talked about three items, each item was divided into three questions. At this time, talking about the second item means that there are still about forty minutes.

Hou Weidong opened up the General History of China and slowly savored the horse's hooves and smoke in the book.

Several department leaders took the time to come out to smoke, but they did not notice Hou Weidong sitting in the lounge, chatting casually while sucking clouds and fog.

One person said, "Secretary Zhou's speech is getting more and more verbose now. I remember when he was the secretary of the municipal party committee in Shazhou, he spoke for up to twenty minutes each time." Another person said, "Go back when you smoke. When Secretary Zhou sees people coming and going, he will lose his temper and clean up the discipline of the venue." Another person said, "It's always a mistake to come out for four hours, and living people can't suffocate to death."

After hearing these words, Hou Weidong recalled and said intimately: "In 1999, Secretary Zhou's speech seemed to have really grown longer."

Before the meeting was over, Hou Weidong followed Zhou Changquan. The person who presided over the meeting was Deputy Mayor Liu Chuanda. He invited Zhou Changquan to have lunch before going back. Zhou Changquan shook his head and said, "Old Liu, forget it, I'd better go and have some casual food and take a nap. There are so many things to do in the afternoon."

In the car, Hou Weidong said the TV station's affairs lightly, and Zhou Changquan said disapprovingly: "There are so many major things in Shazhou, and I can't finish it even if I don't sleep for twenty-four hours every day. Why bother to be petty about these small things? Xiao Hou, you can spend your energy on big things in the future, don't argue with others on these boring things."

The afternoon was busy again. Zhou Changquan was originally going home for dinner, but before leaving, another phone call came, and several leaders from the Shazhou Entrepreneurs Association invited him, so Zhou Changquan agreed to take a seat.

It was half past six in the office, and Zhou Changquan took Hou Weidong to the Shazhou Hotel. He did what he said, and sat down and sat down. He poured about one or two cups of Maotai. He took turns to the glasses with the entrepreneurs present and said, "I still have something to do, so I can't drink too much, you can have fun."

The secretary of the municipal party committee was able to attend the dinner, which gave everyone a lot of face. Everyone surrounded and sent Zhou Changquan to the elevator entrance, and then Yao Qiang, president of the Entrepreneur Association, sent Zhou Changquan to the bottom of the building.

Yao Qiang is the chairman of Lingxi Construction Group. In recent years, Yao Qiang's main business has gradually moved from Lingxi to Shazhou, and he has a relationship in both provinces and cities. He is close to Zhou Changquan, so he was recommended as the new president by the Shazhou Entrepreneurs Association.

Hou Weidong got into the car, and through the reflector, Yao Qiang became thinner and taller. He waved his hand under the car and waited until the car left but still did not stop.

When he was working in Yiyang, Hou Weidong met Yao Qiang and recalled his situation at that time. He thought to himself: "Yao Qiang was close to Ma Youcai before, and Ma Youcai had a close relationship with Liu Bing. It seems that the people and things in Shazhou are really mixed and have a lot of entanglements."

Zhou Changquan left the Shazhou Hotel and went home directly. He was the top leader of Shazhou and had a lot of social engagements. He had been annoyed for a long time. Even if he used pickles and just had a bowl of porridge, it was better than the three treasures of seafood.

Hou Weidong went home before seven o'clock, and he was also very happy. He arrived at the home of Xinyuelou. The news broadcast had just begun. In the living room, his father Hou Yonggui and his mother Liu Guangfen were sitting, and there was also a middle-aged woman he didn't know, which surprised Hou Weidong.

Hou Weidong greeted, "Dad, mom. When did you come?"

The middle-aged woman was very enthusiastic and poured a glass of water for Hou Weidong and said, "You are Hou Weidong's cousin. I am your second cousin. I am here to help you take care of your little boy."

Hou Weidong was a little surprised, but he didn't show it. He took the water, took a sip, and said, "Thank you, second cousin."

Chen Qingrong shouted in the inner room: "Second sister, bring underwear for Xiao Jun." She bathed Xiao Jun in the inner room. Although she had taken care of the child, many years have passed and she has long forgotten about the matter of raising the child back then. At this time, Xiao Jun was still a little soft, so she was quite nervous and struggling to wash.

After Liu Guangfen greeted Hou Weidong, she couldn't help but go to the bathroom. She stood at the door and looked for a while. She had to take more children and had rich experience. Seeing that Chen Qingrong was a little nervous, she said, "Mother-in-law, put your little boy flat and put a towel under her butt to avoid slipping."

Chen Qingrong couldn't help but smiled at Liu Guangfen and shouted to her second cousin: "Second sister, take a towel and put it under her son."

Seeing that his mother-in-law had no intention of asking her to help, Liu Guangfen stood at the door for a while, and when Chen Qingrong was dressing her little son, she returned to the living room.

Hou Weidong said a few words to his father and said, "You sit down first, I'll go change clothes." Back in the inner room, Xiaojia was looking at him and said, "Are you angry?" Hou Weidong said, "Why are you angry?" Xiaojia said, "My mother invited her second cousin without discussing with us. I was a little angry." Hou Weidong advised, "Dad is at work, and my mother takes care of the children and does housework alone. It's really hard, so she should hire someone."

"I'm about to finish my confinement period. I can get up and do things. I have to take care of a child on both sides. There is really no need to hire a nanny."

Hou Weidong smiled and said, "You are really a fan of Xiaocai." Xiaojia reached out to pinch Hou Weidong. After trying several times, he failed and said fiercely: "I don't care about this little money, but I just can't hire a nanny so sloppy. At least I have to have a physical examination and be free from illness."

"What's going on in my second cousin's family? Are you not familiar with it?"

"I haven't seen her for several years. That's what I think. Although I'm a relative, raising children is a big deal. You have to go to a physical examination to check if there is an epidemic disease, otherwise you will not be responsible for the little boy."

As long as she mentioned the child, Xiaojia would be very stubborn, and her opinions were reasonable. Hou Weidong said in embarrassment: "My second cousin is a relative of your family, so it is not good for me to come forward." Xiaojia thought for a while and said: "Let me talk about this matter. After your parents leave, I will formally raise it. This matter is a big matter and cannot be ambiguous."

When Hou Weidong left, Zhang Yuanzheng happened to come back. When he saw his in-laws coming, he was very happy and habitually took out the cigarette. As soon as the two of them lit it, Chen Qingrong said to Zhang Yuanzheng: "You are the same, you smoke when you come back. You are so young, how can you smell these smoke?" Liu Guangfen also came to help, and she joked with a smile: "You two go to the balcony to smoke, don't pollute the air here."

The two men came to the balcony to smoke in embarrassment.

At this time, Shazhou news began to be played on the TV. Hou Weidong sat in the living room and watched. Chen Qingrong said over there: "Hou Weidong, your father hasn't eaten yet, please help heat it up." Hou Weidong was waiting for the first few news to be played before entering the kitchen.

The first two news about Zhou Changquan and Liu Bing. In the camera, Zhou Changquan is very simple, wearing a hard hat, goes deep into the construction site, personally checks the quality of the building, and makes clear requirements. The TV station also cleverly inserts the article on building safety and quality. This news seems to make people feel very real. Liu Bing's news, first the conference, and then a group of people stand in the yard of affordable housing. This is a very ordinary news and does not have much focus.

Just after these two news was broadcast, Liu Jielin, deputy director of the Propaganda Department, called and Hou Weidong said: "I read it, it's very good, there should be no problem."

When the little boy took a shower and Chen Qingrong took care of her sleep, her second cousin went to wash clothes. After Zhang Yuanzheng had dinner, he accompanied Hou Yonggui and Liu Guangfen to chat in the living room. It was until nine o'clock. Hou Yonggui and Liu Guangfen stood up and said goodbye. Hou Weidong drove his parents to his elder brother's house.

On the way, Liu Guangfen said: "Your mother-in-law is not a good-for-nothing lamp, you have to be careful."

Hou Weidong laughed and said, "I don't care. I spend most of my time outside and I go to bed when I go home." Liu Guangfen shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it may not be. Judging from my observation, she has a strong personality and is difficult to get along with. If she is under the same roof for a long time, you have to be mentally prepared."

When Hou Weidong came back, he found that the air was condensed when he entered the door. Chen Qingrong, Zhang Yuanzheng and his second cousin were all sitting in the living room, looking at Hou Weidong without saying a word.
