Facing Chen Ping's sudden question, Xu Dingbang and Yang Qi couldn't help but feel a little surprised, because the conversation was almost over here, and more importantly, generally speaking, when the General Secretary of the Central Committee and the Premier were talking to someone, the General Secretary asked, you just need to answer honestly. Even the provincial party secretary basically had this routine when facing the General Secretary. Why did he not follow the routine when he arrived at Chen Ping?

Thinking of this, Prime Minister Yang Qi smiled: It seems that the General Secretary gave Chen Ping a correct evaluation. He is really a master who doesn't follow the common sense. But don't the talents usually have a little quirk? I believe that it is precisely because Chen Ping is very capable that the General Secretary decided to invite him to Zhongnanhai for a conversation and hand over such an important administrative pilot reform to him.

Yang Qi thought so, and turned his head to look at Xu Dingbang, but he didn't know that Xu Dingbang did not expect Chen Ping to ask a question suddenly.

However, Xu Dingbang was the General Secretary of the Central Committee after all. Even if he was not prepared at all, he still spoke quickly: "I didn't expect that you, the deputy mayor of Luzhuang, are quite widespread."

Regarding the General Secretary’s joke, Chen Ping said: “There is no way, the whole country is a game of chess. Since you have handed me such an important task, I always have to be able to keep up with the central government!”

Xu Dingbang smiled at this, but still did not answer him, but asked Chen Ping: "So what big move do you think the central government should take after the New Year?"

Originally, Xu Dingbang's rhetorical question was just a random question, but unexpectedly, the answer given by Chen Ping made him pay attention to it all at once.

Chen Ping's answer was very short: "Fight a tiger, fight a big tiger."

Although it is just a few simple sentences, the meaning is that it is very clear, that is, the central government will attack some corrupt officials after the New Year, and at least a few provincial and ministerial officials will be taken down to celebrate the flag for future anti-corruption and administrative reforms.

As for why we should do this, it is nothing more than to show the central government's determination to fight corruption and administrative reform. After all, there are not many other officials in the agency, but there are many officials. If we just capture a little irrelevant small official or just make a fuss about the local area, it is far from enough. This is like why anti-corruption is so difficult during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. Isn't it because Heshen is still there? If Heshen cannot be taken down, no matter how many people below arrested or killed, they will all be iron-clad soldiers, but they are just changing their faces?

The same is true now. If some corrupt high-ranking officials cannot be removed and only make money in the local area, the result will be the same as the Qing Dynasty.

In addition, if you don’t deal with high-ranking officials and only deal with grassroots cadres, you can’t convince the people!

The reason why the prime minister who was more than ten years ago was remembered was because he had run many senior officials that others dare not do? Now that the central government is determined to fight corruption and reform the administrative management system, it is impossible to say that it is not a big tiger.

Thinking of this, Xu Dingbang nodded and said to Chen Ping: "Fighting a big tiger? Chen Ping's metaphor is a good example. The central government should also have the courage to fight a tiger. But as you said, everything you do should be gradual, and you cannot fight one by one. That will lead to problems. Even if you are investigated in Luzhuang City, you will help them stop it. So, in this country, shouldn't you be more cautious? So Chen Ping, which tiger should you start fighting first?"

After hearing Xu Dingbang say so much to him, Chen Ping breathed a sigh of relief, because this means that he had accepted his opinion.

Of course Chen Ping would be nervous. After all, he had the help of perceiving the future before, but now it was all up to his own abilities. He was answering the General Secretary’s questions before, but from this moment on, he was proposing himself. His methods and feelings were completely different from before. If Chen Ping was not nervous at this time, he would be no longer a human being.

But now with this very good start, Chen Ping relaxed a little, and he said: "General Secretary, I think since we are going to express our determination to the general public, we should choose the direction that the general public cares most."

Xu Dingbang and Yang Qi both subconsciously raised their eyebrows, and then Xu Dingbang asked, "What about it, for example?"

"Ministry of Petroleum, Petrochemical and Railways," said Chen Ping.

Hearing Chen Ping's answer, although Xu Dingbang and Yang Qi were good at qi cultivation and did not have much expression fluctuations on the surface, their hearts suddenly exploded.

Chen Ping first pointed out the specific direction before continuing: "The Ministry of Railways needs no need to say this. Every Spring Festival, hundreds of millions of people across the country have to take the train home for the New Year, so the people must be particularly concerned about the Ministry of Railways. The same is true for petroleum and petrochemicals, because petrochemicals are indispensable in the country. It can be said that it is the national pillar industry, and the prices of various materials are closely related to gasoline prices. This can be seen from the fact that the National Development and Reform Commission raises oil prices every time it causes scolding in the country."

After Chen Ping finished speaking, he paused. Seeing that Xu Dingbang and Yang Qi had no intention of talking, he continued: "In addition to the Ministry of Petroleum, Petrochemical and the Ministry of Railways, I think COFCO, Telecom, Mobile and several major state-owned banks can also be considered. After all, these places are closely related to the lives of the people. At the same time, due to industry monopoly, they are also the most prone to corruption."

Xu Dingbangen said, "I have to say, Mayor Chen, your suggestions are very good. Premier Yang and I will think about your opinions carefully."

Then Xu Dingbang changed his subject and continued: "But I hope you can put your position and think more about things closely related to you, and focus more on the future administrative reform of Luzhuang City. As for other things, there will naturally be someone who will find a way. You don't have to worry about it, it will be useless if you worry about it. Instead, it will delay your own affairs. Do you understand?"

"I'm sorry, General Secretary, I'm thinking too much. Thank you for your criticism and education on me. I must keep it in mind." Chen Ping said.

"That's good," said Xu Dingbang, "but your long-term vision is still worth encouraging. It is just how to find a balance between current work and future prospects, which is what you need to pay attention to."

"Please rest assured by General Secretary, I will definitely adjust myself," said Chen Ping.

"Of course I am quite at ease with you," said Xu Dingbang. "Okay, Premier Yang and I have other things to do later, so you can go back first. Remember to sort out your ideas on reform as soon as possible."

"Okay General Secretary, I will definitely complete the task as soon as possible!"

Chen Ping said this, then stood up, and after saying goodbye to Xu Dingbang and Yang Qi, he turned around and left the room. Outside the room, there was a secretary of the General Office of the General Office who had been waiting there for a long time. When he saw Chen Ping coming out, he knew that Chen Ping had finished his conversation with the General Secretary and the Prime Minister, he nodded and smiled at Chen Ping, and led Chen Ping out of the building in front.

After Chen Ping left, Xu Dingbang turned to Yang Qi and asked, "How is it?"

"This young man is worthy of being a young cadre valued by the General Secretary. Whether it is his vision of looking at problems or his grasp of work, he is very good at it, but..."
