Chapter 2 First Impressions
On Monday morning, Lu Zheng, who was in the party school, received a call from the cadre room of the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department, and asked for leave from the class teacher Wang Qingfeng, Section Chief Wang, and drove his "Fiat" straight to the municipal party committee compound.
This civilian sedan worth more than 5,000 yuan was bought after coming to Wushan. It is much cheaper than the original van, but it is lighter and more comfortable to drive. The van was sent to the company of the Beijing sister.
The Wushan Municipal Party Committee Courtyard and the Municipal Government Courtyard face each other across Xishan Road. Both courtyards are lined with green pines and cypresses, solemn and quiet.
In the first room of the Organization Department Cadre Department on the second floor of the Municipal Party Committee Office Building, a deputy director named Zeng received Lu Zheng. Deputy Director Zeng was named Zeng Jiang. He had a round head and a short figure, but he had a strong smell when speaking and doing things. I think it was a strong force that he had developed in the organizational system all year round.
Knocking on the table, Zeng Jiang looked arrogant: "You, the organizational relationship is affiliated with the Municipal Advisory Committee Office. But, there is no special department for file establishment in the Advisory Committee Office. The personnel files are placed in the Personnel Department of our Municipal Party Committee Office. Well, you take this letter of introduction, and these..." Zeng Jiang knocked on a few materials on the table, "Go to the Municipal Party Committee Office of Personnel Department to handle the organizational procedures, and then, this letter is the introduction certificate letter in the room. You can take it with you and go to the Advisory Committee to find Director Pei of the Office..."
The cadre's office has a heavy authority. It is responsible for inspecting the Wushan Municipal Party Committee, municipal government organs, mass organizations, leadership teams, and leading cadres, and put forward suggestions on team adjustment and arrangement, appointment and exchange of cadres; undertake specific matters for the appointment and removal of members of the municipal leadership team, participate in the work related to the election of the Municipal Party Committee, Municipal Advisory Committee, Municipal People's Congress, Municipal Government, Municipal CPPCC, Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission, etc.
The director of the first office is Zhu Jiong, executive vice minister of the Organization Department, so Zeng Jiang is also a deputy department-level cadre, obviously he doesn't care much about this young man who has just been deposed.
Lu Zheng nodded slightly. He was already familiar with these procedures. Anyway, they were all in the same big yard.
...
When Lu Zheng returned to the cadre's room, around twelve o'clock, Zeng Jiang locked the door and was about to go out. Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Director Zeng, let's have a meal together? Go out for a meal."
Zeng Jiang waved his hand, "No, I have a meal ticket."
Lu Zheng smiled and said, "That's right. I don't know much about the hospital of the Advisory Committee. After dinner, please point me at the fingertips?"
Lu Zheng is telling the truth. Wushan is at the forefront of reform, the division of party and government institutions is getting more and more detailed, and there are more and more departments. With the separation of the municipal government and the municipal party committee, the municipal advisory committee also moved out of the municipal party committee compound last year. Lu Zheng only knew that he was still on Xishan Road, but there was a real secret place where it was.
Zeng Jiang frowned and said, "No. 94, Xishan Road."
Lu Zheng spread his hands: "I know this, but you are not unclear. The door signs on Xishan Road are so inconspicuous. I drive the car and can't see clearly. Director Zeng, please help?"
In Zeng Jiang's opinion, this young man naturally tried every means to treat himself to this meal. Moreover, he had to find excuses. He was young at the same level as him, which was very rare.
It seems that Lu Zheng is not as rumored as it is.
Lu Zheng was appointed as a member of the Standing Committee of the Guangning County Party Committee last year, which caused a sensation in the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee. How could Zeng Jiang not know about him? When Zeng Jiang was having a kiss with three or two, he also discussed who was behind Lu Zheng.
But unexpectedly, in less than a year, this political star became a meteor, and the speed of falling was astonishing. All the speculations before were really absurd and unruly now. It seems that it is just a lucky person, which is similar to some celebrities who emerged during the Cultural Revolution.
Although I don’t know how to arrange to go to the Advisory Committee Office now, a rude man with a junior high school diploma is becoming increasingly out of place in the cadre team. I think the future achievements will not be much higher.
But having said that, after all, he was once a young cadre who was so popular in Wushan area, and he invited him so sincerely. Zeng Jiang thought about it and said, "Okay, let's talk about it first, eat something simple, and don't use it as an example."
Lu Zheng smiled and nodded.
Following Lu Zheng downstairs, he came to the parking lot in front of a row of emerald green cypress trees. Seeing that Lu Zheng opened the door of a yellow sedan with the key, Zeng Jiang couldn't help but be stunned.
"Director Zeng, get in the car." Lu Zheng waved with a smile.
"Is this car yours? Private car?" To be honest, this was the first time Zeng Jiang was riding a sedan seriously. After getting into the co-pilot, he felt a little restrained. After all, it was the end of last year that the main leader of the municipal party committee changed to a new car.
"Yes." Lu Zheng smiled, "My sister bought it for me." He started to get on the car and asked again: "Director Zeng smokes?"
Zeng Jiang nodded, and Lu Zheng then took out a packet of Hongtashan from the storage box and threw it to him, and said with a smile: "I am the same, and I am getting more and more addicted to smoking. I'm kissing this."
Looking at the cigarettes in his hand, Zeng Jiang remained silent. He could occasionally receive some good cigarettes and wine during festivals, but a few Hongtashan were like babies. How could he distribute them everywhere like Lu Zheng?
"Quanjude opened a branch here at the beginning of the month, right? Where? Let's go eat roast duck." When the car was about to drive out of the municipal party committee compound, Lu Zheng said, and smiled and said, "It's great to come to the city, you can eat anything."
Zeng Jiangmuran, this guy is in a good mood. He is really a foodie?
...
Wushan Quanjude Hotel is on the east side of Jiefang Square. It has a very atmospheric architectural style. Lu Zheng parked cars on the edge of the square next to it. There is no urban management or parking space now, so parking is very convenient.
Zeng Jiang got out of the car and muttered, "Eat a little simple", but muttered for a while but couldn't say it.
Sitting by the window seat, Lu Zheng ordered a roast duck and a duck tongue duck treasure and other side dishes. Zeng Jiang repeatedly said, "Enough, I can't finish it."
The lobby windows are bright and bright, and the decoration is luxurious. The red carved partitions are hand-painted in blue and white porcelain. The lobby columns are full of ancient charm everywhere.
The guests seemed to be either rich or noble, and they were dressed very fashionable. The most eye-catching thing was the table of white skin and deep eyes near the bar.
"Chu Lu, your family is in good condition, right?" Zeng Jiang looked at the crispy yellow and fragrant duck slices on the table next to him, and then he realized what hungry means. Suddenly, he felt very hungry.
He suddenly became polite to Lu Zheng's name.
Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Just call me Zhengzi, I'm just living a confused life. I figured it out. If it really doesn't work, I'll do business."
Zeng Jiang laughed and said with some envy: "You have the conditions to not go. I have always thought about it, but I just don't know what to do." In fact, it is very popular for public officials to go into business. In Wushan, there are even cases of deputy department-level cadres taking the lead in business.
Those who have a way really want to make more money. How many salaries can they get from government agencies?
After a meal, Zeng Jiang changed his mouth to call Lu Zheng "Zhengzi". As for Lu Zheng, he really didn't know how to go to the city advisory committee, Zeng Jiang didn't think much. He forgot that when he started to come to eat, he thought Lu Zheng was asking him for a meal on an excuse, or rather, he didn't forget, but he just didn't want to think too much, so as not to feel embarrassed.
Zeng Jiang pointed out the way, and Lu Zheng sent Zeng Jiang back to the municipal party committee compound, and then returned to the municipal advisory committee.
The small courtyard of the Municipal Advisory Committee is not big, with only a white two-story building in the courtyard. The guard is an old man. When he heard that Lu Zheng was here to report, he looked at Lu Zheng's car and looked at Lu Zheng suspiciously for a few glances, then let him go. Ren Lu Zheng drove the car into the courtyard.
In traditional Chinese concept, first respect the silk clothes and then respect others, and even more so, even more so, it is impossible to avoid the vulgarity of fighting.
Several weeping willow branches in the yard sway lightly in the wind, and the tender green branches show vitality. Every day, the leaves seem to be a little more and greener.
Lu Zheng entered the office building and found the Municipal Advisory Committee Office according to the signs hanging in front of each door. The Advisory Committee Office was on the first floor, and next to the Advisory Committee Office was a "Old Cadre Chess and Cards Activity Center". Lu Zheng looked inside through the glass window. It was a big room with many small tables, which should be various chess tables, Go tables, mahjong tables, etc.
The door of the room with the door sign of the advisory committee office was closed. It was probably someone on duty. Lu Zheng knocked on the door twice, but no one answered, and the door opened gently.
Through the crack of the door, a slightly fat middle-aged female cadre was lying on the desk leaning against the window, lying on the table with her head resting on her arms, waving soundly. Lu Zheng was stunned for a moment and wanted to take the door gently. After all, it was too indecent.
Who knew that the female cadre suddenly sat up, just like a student was suddenly woken up in bed in class. She sat upright and looked around vigilantly. Then, she saw Lu Zheng outside the door.
"Who are you?" The fat female cadre stood up and stared at Lu Zheng with some unhappiness.
Lu Zheng had no choice but to knock on the door and push it in, "Sister, I am new to report. My name is Lu Zheng. Director Pei is not here, right?"
The female cadre looked up and down at Lu Zheng, and Yu Ba's eyes were full of suspicion and said, "Are you Lu Zheng? A new deputy division-level researcher?" Obviously, although the municipal advisory committee team ranked only behind the municipal party committee and ahead of the People's Congress, the government, and the CPPCC in the news reports, they were just institutions participating in politics and political affairs, and Lu Zheng's name was not very famous here.
"Yes, it's me." Seeing that the female cadre seemed to be in charge, it might be Director Pei. After Zeng Jiang said that Director Pei was a middle-aged lesbian. Lu Zheng hurriedly took out the materials in the briefcase and his ID card and placed it on the female cadre's desk.
The female cadre looked through and said, "You are only twenty-three?" She looked very surprised.
"Yes." Lu Zheng laughed, "Women in government agencies, especially middle-aged women, must not be provoked, and they all ruined people tirelessly.
"I am Pei Aihong." The female cadre revealed her identity. Sure enough, she was the office director.
"Ah, Director Pei, hello." Lu Zheng made a sudden enlightenment look and extended his hand respectfully. In fact, he had guessed that it was her. Before coming, Lu Zheng asked Zeng Jiang about the situation of the Consultative Committee Office.
After confirming Lu Zheng's identity, Pei Aihong stood up and shook hands with Lu Zheng with a little reserve: "Comrade Lu Zheng, welcome you."
After looking at his watch, Pei Aihong said, "We are going to work soon. In this way, I will introduce you to other situations later. I will take you to see Mr. Huang later. Your division of labor in the office is to assist Mr. Huang in the work." He sighed again, "We have always been short of people. I have reported many times. In the Municipal Party Committee Office, there are many idle people, so why can't we transfer a few people here?"
