Chapter 552 Uninvited Guest

"You father and son are together and talk about those depressing things-" Dai Xuan said.

"It can't be said to be a depressing thing, it's called operating a city." Chen Mingluo replied.

Some people have long proposed the idea of ​​operating a city, but the specific statements of how to operate are very different.

Chen Tongda and Chen Mingluo and his son have the same views on this issue, that is, the development of Mingyang City must be sustainable, healthy, effective, and not extensive, disorderly, and without potential. To achieve this goal, the city leaders do need to pay a relatively high price to plan.

Obviously, if we do some superficial and useless image projects like most cities today, like the leaders of today, which can show off political achievements, it will naturally be very simple. To put it bluntly, this kind of thing can be picked up as long as you spend money, without any technical content at all, and has no practical value to the city itself. It is just a pile of steel and concrete buildings.

Because of this, image engineering is also called idiot engineering. Any leader who wants to climb up but has no good path will choose this simple way. Even if there is no money in the municipal government, it doesn’t matter. Even if you owe debts, you can do it. In the end, you will benefit yourself. Pat your butt and go to work elsewhere. A bunch of messes can be thrown to your successor.

"This kind of thing is not uncommon. There was a poor county in the past. The former county party secretary finally won the target of a national poor county based on the actual situation. He could get a lot of poverty alleviation funds every year, which would be of great benefit to the lives of the people." Chen Mingluo remembered some things and said it casually, "As a new leader, he was determined to achieve political achievements and desperately brought some investment projects. He got rid of poverty that year, and the GDP rose sharply. Two years later, he had enough political achievements and left. The people were promoted. As a result, the local economic situation did not improve, but instead deteriorated, leaving behind a stigma in the area."

"There are many such people, and there are quite a few. The domestic promotion judgment system will certainly have problems if it is against the superiors and the inferiors." Chen Tongda replied.

The two of them chatted for a while and the meal at home was ready, so they sat together and prepared to start eating.

At this time, the phone at home rang again. When Chen Tongda answered it, his expression immediately became solemn, "When did the organization rescue the matter? Well, I will be at the scene immediately. Well, of course I have to report to Secretary Yu."

After putting down the phone, Chen Tongda sighed and said, "Oh, a class in the No. 1 Middle School held a party event. When the meal was held, I was poisoned by a group food. I have to go over and see the situation."

"Oh, why did this happen again?" Dai Xuan felt a little depressed when she heard this.

Since Chen Tongda became the mayor, things have never stopped. There are often some emergencies that make people feel overwhelmed. I have encountered such collective food poisoning incidents twice. Fortunately, nothing major happened. This time, I don’t know what happened.

Chen Tongda had just taken two sips of hot soup. Before he could eat the serious rice, he put on his coat and called the driver to come over and drove him to the scene.

At this moment, Chen Mingluo took a lotus leaf cake, filled it with shredded pork, vegetables and other things, found a fresh bag and put it in it, then found a thermos cup, poured some seaweed egg flower soup into it, and said to his father Chen Tongda, "Take it to the car and eat it. I don't know when I'm busy."

Chen Tongda nodded and responded. With Chen Mingluo's help, he put on his coat and left the house with the dish cake and thermos. At this time, the driver had already driven the car. He turned around and greeted him, and got in the car.

The car left a long trace on the snow and left the municipal party committee compound.

As a result, Chen Mingluo chatted with his mother Dai Xuan at home for more than two hours, but before he saw his father Chen Tongda come back, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised. As for such a thing, a deputy mayor could just take care of it. The mayor just went over and drifted around, and it was just the point.

But for so long, why haven’t my dad been back yet?

"I'll call and ask about the situation-" Chen Mingluo said to his mother Dai Xuan.

He grabbed the phone and dialed his father Chen Tongda's cell phone. The result was that the other party did not turn on the phone, which made Chen Mingluo feel a little puzzled.

Although many people turn off their phones when working, especially when meetings, to avoid affecting the overall situation, Chen Tongda, as the mayor of Mingyang, certainly does not need to do this, unless he attends a provincial meeting or something, or if the provincial leaders come to summon them to the city and the city, the phone will be shut down.

What's going on now?

Chen Mingluo felt it was strange, so he called the driver, and this time it was immediately cleared.

"Brother Li, what is my dad doing now? Why can't I contact him?" Chen Mingluo asked.

"Mayor Chen is having a meeting, and Governor Yu is here-" driver Xiao Li replied, "It has been more than half an hour, and it has not come out yet. I wonder what the situation is?"

"Oh, Secretary Yu did not attend the meeting?" Chen Mingluo was surprised when he heard that Governor Yu Tongwen had actually come to Mingyang. How could he have time to run to Mingyang during this New Year's Day?

"It's just that the cadres in the municipal government sequence are holding a meeting, and Secretary Yu and the others don't know the news." Driver Xiao Li replied.

"Okay, thank you, Brother Li." Chen Mingluo hung up the phone, touched his chin involuntarily, and muttered in his heart.

The new governor Yu Tongwen, this person is a cadre from the Ministry of Water Resources. Chen Mingluo has touched his bottom and knew that this person was an engineering maniac. He had done a lot of tofu projects during the Ministry of Water Resources. Although the crime had not happened yet, after all, there were a bunch of volcanoes sitting under his butt. Once it erupted, he would be in trouble.

Because of this reason, Chen Mingluo despised Yu Tongwen.

However, just as leaders like to appoint subordinates with a handle, subordinates also like to take the handle of being leaders. Therefore, Chen Mingluo is optimistic about being a governor in Xiling. After all, such people are easy to deal with. If they change to a more difficult leader, it will be a little more troublesome and they have to think about it.

But he always had a feeling that this time Yu Tongwen suddenly appeared in Mingyang, and it seemed that there was something bad about those who were good without coming. Otherwise, would it be better to run here during the festival?

What is particularly vigilant is that there was no sign of warning before, Yu Tongwen came to the door. No matter how you think about it, you feel that there are some problems.

Chen Mingluo thought about it for a while and felt that he needed to find someone to communicate. After thinking about it, he called Yu Yuanfan's home, the secretary of the municipal party committee.

"Hey, who are you looking for?" A very pleasant voice came from the phone.

"Guess who I'm looking for--" Chen Mingluo was immediately happy when he heard this. Unexpectedly, Yu Zilan was also at home.

He was in a hurry when he left, so he didn't have time to say hello to them. Unexpectedly, Yu Zilan actually returned to Mingyang, which surprised him a little.

The relationship between him and Yu Zilan is not only an ambiguous boyfriend and girlfriend, but also a collaborator with a deep relationship. The Yuanming Fan production project that the two cooperated with is now a major project with an annual income of over 100 million yuan. Because of this, not only Yu Zilan himself has benefited, Yu Yuanfan's status in the Yu family has also risen.

Because of this, Yu Yuanfan has always been very respectful to Chen Tongda and Chen Mingluo. After all, the children of the two families are partners, and they are partners who make a lot of money. This relationship cannot be lost.

Yu Zilan didn't pay attention just now, so he naturally heard Chen Mingluo's voice and immediately said with some complaint, "I'm still saying that you didn't know how to take me when you went back to Mingyang, which made me drive back by myself. Now I'm just taking a break from your phone. Well, what's the matter with me?"

Chen Mingluo wanted to say directly that I had something to do with your father, but if I said that, it would definitely be a big blow to Yu Zilan, so he chatted with her for a while and agreed to have lunch together tomorrow. Then he asked Yu Yuanfan whether he was at home. "If Secretary Yu is at home, you can call him to answer the phone and I have something to ask him."

"I knew you were having something wrong, hum—" Yu Zilan snorted unhappily, and then shouted, "Dad, your phone number!"

Yu Yuanfan was lying on the sofa in the living room reading a newspaper. After hearing his daughter's voice, he said, "Ask who it is, it doesn't matter, just say I'm not here."

It is rare to have a rest time, Yu Yuanfan doesn't want to cause trouble, especially the phone calls that come at this time are usually done if there is something to do. He is also a headache about these things, so he can push them off if they can.

"Chen Mingluo's phone number——" Yu Zilan replied.

"Oh, then I'll answer it." Yu Yuanfan immediately stood up and said to his daughter when he heard that it was Chen Mingluo's phone call.

It’s okay for others, but Chen Mingluo is unscrupulous. Now even Yu Yuanfan knows that Chen Mingluo is now a deputy department-level expert, and he was personally granted by Premier Hong. He is really a successful young man. Such an awesome young man is also a big financial backer of his family. How can he neglect it?

Yu Yuanfan took the phone and said to Chen Mingluo with a smile, "Haha, Mingluo, I was thinking of asking you to have a meal at home. Why, is there anything to say so late?"

"Uncle Yu, Governor Yu has come to Mingyang. Do you know about this?" Chen Mingluo asked him directly without saying nonsense.
