Chapter 624 Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee (Part 1)

From a realistic perspective, after the new Lingxi Provincial Party Secretary takes office, he will inevitably reshuffle within a certain range, and the lives of middle and senior officials in Lingxi will be changed as a result. In this inland province where the market economy is not fully developed, the role of the government is particularly prominent. With the re-adjustment and combination of personnel, the economic development of Lingxi Province will also be affected by the adjustment of the provincial party committee, and this impact is profound and extensive.

Most ordinary people and low-level cadres stay away from the political center and are not related to the matter. This personnel change is at most a topic of discussion after dinner. Only middle and senior leading cadres with interest will keep a close eye on this adjustment.

This adjustment is very important for Hou Weidong. In the past two years, he has been cautious but persistent in establishing relationships with the Meng family. At present, he has established close ties with Mrs. Meng, son-in-law Zhu Xiaoyong and secretary Chen Shuguang, and has slowly entered the sight of the provincial party secretary, the provincial party secretary. Who knew that the heavens were not as good as the man. Meng Haofang was suddenly transferred to Beijing, making Hou Weidong's beautiful wish temporarily become a shadow.

"I went to visit Zhao Dong, which was very timely and absolutely lucky."

Hou Weidong's initial idea was to establish good relations with the people around the governor, but this time he arrived in Lingxi and learned that Governor Qian and Meng Haofang had arrived in Beijing together. He contacted Governor Zhou's words and thought that Governor Qian would be likely to become the secretary of the provincial party committee. This time he visited Zhao Dong in advance, laying the groundwork for strengthening contact with people around the provincial party committee secretary in the future.

The reason for this active visit was a clue provided by Guo Lan.

Hou Weidong put his hand on the phone. After thinking for a while, he still called Guo Lan’s office. The phone rang several times. No one answered.

At this time, Guo Lan was participating in the reception work in the conference room.

Huang Ziti came to Chengjin County as the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee. His inspection was basically the same as that of Hou Weidongdong running around. However, Hou Weidong contacted relevant people in a low-key manner. Huang Ziti had a different identity. He went to various counties and departments, and the municipal party committee office issued notices saying, "Secretary Huang is coming to inspect your county. Please make relevant preparations."

At this time, the rumors of his becoming mayor had long spread throughout the Shazhou officialdom. The Chengjin County Party Committee received Huang Ziti according to the specifications of receiving the top leaders of the municipal government. All the county party committee members and deputy county-level leaders at home attended the symposium.

After returning from the United States, Guo Lan changed from respect to Huang Ziti to stay away from him. Thinking of his hints, she felt disgusted not only psychologically but also physiologically, sitting in the corner of the conference room, looking at her nose and her nose.

After the warm and intense discussion, the county party secretary Zeng Zhaoqiang said: "Comrades, don't leave, and have a meal at the county party committee guesthouse at noon."

Zeng Zhaoqiang accompanied Huang Zidi to the front, with Zhou Fuquan and other leaders as the second tier, and the standing committee members as the third tier. Behind were the deputy county magistrate, deputy director of the National People's Congress, and vice chairman of the CPPCC.

Zeng Zhaoqiang is tall and has a big back, and has a very leadership attitude. Huang Ziti is a middle-aged fat man, nearly 1.7 meters tall. Huang Ziti walked in front with his hands on his back, Zeng Zhaoqiang bent over, followed with respect.

Two minibuses drove to the county party committee guesthouse.

Director Hu Yonglin of the guesthouse learned at 10 o'clock that all the county leaders would have dinner at the guesthouse, so he stayed in the kitchen. He turned around behind the master and said, "Today, Secretary Huang of the Municipal Party Committee came to have dinner. All four teams were here, and you are showing some of your skills."

"Why is it braised crucian carp? Don't serve this dish."

The master asked in confusion: "Braised crucian carp is the signature dish here, why not serve?"

In the past, Hou Weidong, the secretary of the county party committee, lived in the county party committee guesthouse. He liked this dish the most. The master often made this dish, and it became a habit when cooking and cooking. This dish was served in every chess. Now Zeng Zhaoqiang does not live in the county party committee guesthouse, and the master has not yet formed a new habit.

Hu Yonglin said angrily: "I forgot to say something to you, and it almost ruined a big deal. I heard that Secretary Huang doesn't eat crucian carp, and Secretary Zeng doesn't eat crucian carp. Change it quickly, change it quickly."

The master complained: "The fish is about to be put into the pot, why not change it? It's too late."

Hu Yonglin has been in the kitchen for a long time and is very familiar with the masters' eyes. When he walked into the water tank, he saw more than a dozen flat fish inside, and scolded: "I want to lie to me. I know that I sold flat fish yesterday and wanted to make that spicy flat fish, which tasted good."

The master said to himself: "There is no distinction between high and low fish. The key is to be good at craftsmanship and make it delicious. It is really delicious."

Two buses drove into the guesthouse. Huang Zidi stood in the middle of the yard, looked at the environment, and said to Zeng Zhaoqiang and others with satisfaction: "Leaders should take the lead in saving. If you can go to the hotel, don't go to the hotel. The food in the hotel is the same, it is so expensive that it bites people, and it is not delicious. More importantly, it is very bad for the people to see."

He pointed to the guesthouse and said, "It was still easy to eat at the county party committee guesthouse. In the 1970s, the third-level cadre meeting was held. Township cadres came to the meeting with quilts and rice on their backs. All the county party committee guesthouses had floor shops. I was still working as a secretary in the prefectural committee and had been to Chengjin many times."

The chairman of the CPPCC has a long experience and was the youngest deputy county magistrate in Chengjin back then. He smiled and said, "I still remember the situation back then. Secretary Huang was young at that time. When he arrived in Chengjin, he borrowed a bicycle from the county government and ran around at several accommodation sites."

Huang Ziti sighed: "The sun and the moon are flying, and in a blink of an eye it has been twenty years. At least half of the leaders of the prefectural committee have passed away, and their voice, appearance and smile are still vivid in my mind."

Five tables were arranged in the guesthouse lobby, with leaders of the four major teams and deputy secretary of the county party committee Gao Nan and others sitting at the same table with Huang Ziti. Zeng Zhaoqiang smiled and called out: "Minister Guo, come here, today our oldest county leader and the youngest county leader are sitting at the same table, which is also the inheritance of history."

Guo Lan was quite depressed. While getting up, she said to herself: "What is the inheritance of history? It's really an inexplicable reason."

Huang Zidi chatted with the leaders of Chengjin County with a smile, and told a few jokes from time to time. When facing Guo Lan, he also had the style of an elder and a leader.

After chatting for a while, the Chairman of the CPPCC asked in an experience: "I went to the Municipal CPPCC for a meeting the day before yesterday. I met several members of the Provincial CPPCC. They said that Minister Zhao Dong was transferred to the General Office of the Provincial Government and gave Governor Qian the secretary."

Huang Zitadao: "This is the case. Yesterday I called him and invited him to go back to Shazhou to take a look. This is the place where he fought."

Zeng Xiangang laughed and said meaningfully: "Secretary Huang is highly respected and has a work experience. It is a blessing for the people of Shazhou."

Huang Ziti was very modest: "The organization has not officially announced it yet. Don't mention this matter for the time being, Secretary Zhaoqiang. I will give other county leaders a glass of wine."

Zeng Zhaoqiang accompanied Huang Ziti to each table to toast. Every time he arrived at a table, everyone stood up and raised their glasses together.

After lunch, Huang Zidi took a lunch break at the county party committee guesthouse.

Zeng Zhaoqiang said to Guo Lan: "Secretary Xiaxiang Zeng is going to Shuanghe Town to inspect the pilot work of rural grassroots party organizations. You have been working on this work, so you and I will accompany you throughout the process, and you will explain the specific work."

Guo Lan didn't want to accompany Huang Ziti, but she couldn't give any reason at all. She could not help but go back to the office to rest. When she saw the caller ID on the office phone, she thought about it, but still called the call back. The ringtone rang several times, but no one answered it.

After get off work at noon, Hou Weidong returned to the Crescent Building. He went to his mother's house for lunch first, and his new sister-in-law Jiang Xiao would also be on the dining table in the living room.

"Where is my brother, why didn't he come back?"

"Your brother has been back at noon and has lunch. There are many cases in the criminal police team. He is the main focus on serious cases and is busy every day. I am in the Entry and Exit Management Office, and I am a typical office worker. I have been much more leisurely and I don't have to work overtime every day." After getting married, Jiang Xiao became much plump and his face was round. When he smiled, his eyes became a line.

Hou Weidong was no longer Chu brother at this time. Seeing Jiang Xiao’s appearance, he asked with a smile: “Sister-in-law, are you happy?”

Jiang Xiao and Liu Guangfen looked at each other, and Liu Guangfen said happily: "Miss three has a good look. Your sister-in-law is already pregnant."

As she was talking, Xiaojia also came to have a meal. When she heard the news, she became excited and said, "I took a public leave today and won't go in the afternoon. I'm going to buy some pure cotton clothes for Xiao Jian at the silk threading factory market. I'll bring you some small clothes back."

Jiang smiled and said, "I'm just pregnant, it's still early."

Liu Guangfen was very excited and said, "Be prepared earlier and you won't be in a hurry."

After dinner, Xiaojia said, "Honey, you haven't been shopping with me for a long time. I'll go shopping with us this afternoon."

Hou Weidong said: "In the afternoon, I will go to the office to guard the stall. I will go shopping with you tomorrow Saturday."

Liu Guangfen was unwilling to have his son do private affairs during work hours, so he hurriedly interrupted: "Miss so much, we don't care about him anymore. I'll accompany you to visit the silk threading factory market."

On Saturday morning, Xiaojia woke Hou Weidong up and said, "Don't sleep in, go to the silk-silver factory market as soon as possible."

"I went there yesterday, so don't go to today. A market that is too small to be smaller, what's the point of shopping?"

"The small market is not small. Nowadays, laid-off female workers in silk threading factories set up stalls, including silk fabrics, cotton fabrics, and ready-made clothes. The prices are cheap and the quality is good."

"Don't try to get cheap, our family is not short of money."

"I'm not trying to be cheap either, I just think the market is quite lively and it's fun to stroll around."

Hou Weidong sat up from the head of the bed, rubbed off the booze on his eyes, yawned, and said, "My second sister's silk factory has a good business. She said the international market is good, so why do there are so many laid-off female workers in the silk threading factory?"

"I thought of this problem yesterday, but I didn't understand it."

After breakfast, Hou Weidong and Xiaojia drove a Bluebird car to the small commodity market about 200 meters outside the door of the silk-spoke factory's family area. This is a market similar to a vegetable market. Under the shedge is a simple board house with goods placed in the back and a store opened in the front. There are dozens of households, people coming and going, which is very lively.

When Xiaojia entered the store to choose thermal underwear for her parents, Hou Weidong stood at the door without any work and asked a shop owner in his thirties, "I haven't been here for a long time. I didn't expect it to be so lively. Are you an employee of a silk threading factory?"

The owner's face was healthy and rosy, and he said, "I am an employee of the silk threading factory. Now I'm laid off, so I rely on this small storefront to make a living."

"The international market is good now, why are you still laid off?"

The female shop owner "snorted" towards the factory and said, "The conscience of the officials in the factory was given to the dogs. They got us off and recruited a group of female workers from the mountainous areas. The salary was paid low, and they were completely contract workers." She said this and spat a few more times.

"Is this a market built by the factory?"

"Apart from the former Mr. Yang, the conscience of the factory leaders was completely shady. Who would have thought of seeking benefits for workers? After Mr. Yang resigned, he expanded the market and let us laid-off female workers come in to do some small business. Don't think that the market is very prosperous now. In the past, this was a small market of more than ten stalls." The female owner said this and pointed to the front and said, "That's Mr. Yang, who is a market-oriented. He is a good person, very capable, and has the best skills in the factory."

Chief Engineer Yang is a man in his thirties. He was wearing work clothes and people greeted him along the way. When he walked to Hou Weidong, he looked at Hou Weidong unexpectedly and said, "Director Hou is here to visit the market, too?"

Hou Weidong really didn’t know General Manager Yang, but General Manager Yang said hello as if he saw an acquaintance, which made him a little confused?
