Three days later, a special seminar on Zhang Siwen's article "Maintaining Urban Characteristics, Highlighting Urban Individuality, and Leading Mineral Integration with the Grand Momentum of Building an Economic Province" was held in the provincial capital. (.Pure text)
The seminar was jointly organized in the name of the Provincial Federation of Social Sciences, the Department of Philosophy of Shandong University, and the magazine "Shanlu Live", and the actual organizer of the seminar was Yu Yan.
This was Yu Yan’s first time organizing such a seminar, and he didn’t know where to start. Fortunately, the doctoral students under Professor Luo benefited from the opportunities to practice by being around the teacher, and they were already familiar with such activities.
The main affairs of the company are basically handled by them. Yu Yan is only responsible for spending money and recording it in the account in a timely manner.
According to the introductions of those doctoral students and juniors, under normal circumstances, if you convene a decent seminar on theoretical works, you have to start preparations at least one month in advance. The works must first be sent to relevant experts and scholars. According to everyone
The academic scope of experts and scholars should be given a general theme and angle of comment, and then they must have a basic standard for their preparation to prevent those with conflicting views from getting off on each other or challenging the situation on the spot once it is time to speak at a meeting.
It’s not easy to clean up. In addition, there should be a strict and complete set of procedures for the selection of the meeting location, the layout of the venue, the arrangement of seats, the order of speeches, etc.
However, in this seminar on Zhang Siwen's works, due to time constraints and the fact that the real intention is not in the content but in the form, the process is the first priority, so everything is simplified and speed is the principle.
According to the arrangement of the doctoral students, the first people to be invited are not experts and scholars, but well-known reporters from the news media. In this regard, they have a group of very enthusiastic reporters and editor friends who call them one by one without mentioning anything.
Even when referring to the author, they only say, "He is a municipal Party committee secretary with real power." In their mouths, there is no need to even mention the three words Zhang Siwen, and the most important keyword is
It's like "each red envelope is one thousand yuan", or "your place has a total of five thousand yuan" and so on.
However, the ugly words come first. The requirements for newspaper reporters are that "the article must be published in a prominent position and cannot be less than 1,000 words."; TV reporters should "broadcast the province's news network in the evening, with a duration of not less than 30 seconds"; radio "news
"Exclusive interview, news scrolling all day long, exclusive interview rebroadcast for three consecutive days." Looking at the skillful operations of a group of junior brothers and sisters, Yu Yan felt like he came from another century. He could only sigh in his heart that he could truly create and change the world.
It's not people, but time.
After making an appointment with a group of reporters, and with only two days left before the seminar, the doctoral students began to invite experts and scholars who would attend the meeting and speak at the meeting. They already had a list of names drawn up by Professor Luo.
It is nothing more than the chairman, vice-chairman and secretary-general of the Provincial Federation of Social Science and Technology, several editors, deputy editors, and editors of "Shanlu Live", several senior professors from the Philosophy Department of University N, and also invited the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee,
Officials from several key departments such as the Political Research Office and the Propaganda Department.
Everyone knew that it was Professor Luo and Governor Wang who took the lead, and it was placed in a hotel of Hilton level. Naturally, they knew the popularity and economic benefits of this business, so they all readily agreed. As for the few people who spoke at the meeting, they had already
Professor Luo and Governor Wang came up with the topic, and the doctoral students wrote the first draft and sent it directly to everyone's name through letters. Some even said bluntly that there was no need to read the manuscript first, and they could just get the text during the meeting.
The invitation to the meeting was also sent to Secretary Wang through Professor Luo. Secretary Wang, who has so many things to do, would naturally not be able to attend such a small seminar, but he also said, "Since it is a seminar, let's sit down and solve some practical problems seriously."
, and truly do something practical to promote the construction of a major economic province."
Although Secretary Wang's words were paraphrased by the secretary, they were no longer authentic and were completely colloquial expressions. However, to Professor Luo's ears, they were a big deal. Professor Luo immediately ordered the venue to display a banner with the message "Seriously
"Explore, seek truth and be pragmatic, and actively promote the construction of a major economic province", and required that the above important instructions from Secretary Wang must be included in news reports.
Regarding the holding of this seminar, Zhang Siwen was not prepared to make any announcements about Antai. On the one hand, this was due to his usual low-key style, and on the other hand, he did not want to irritate Wu Qi and others by being too public.
However, Yu Yan reminded, "If the meeting report appears in newspapers and TV, it will still alarm Antai, which will make people feel that we are not doing enough." Zhang Siwen thought about it and took the initiative to invite Wu Qi, Chen Qin and others.
, but adopted a vague tactic and did not tell the real causes and consequences. He only said that the organizers such as the Provincial Federation of Social Science and Technology insisted on doing this, and he himself was trying to get it on the shelves and reluctantly. When Wu Qi heard about it, he was inevitably jealous.
After reading more than half of it, I felt that Zhang Siwen was quite capable. An article actually made such a big impact, but he kept saying congratulations. After further questioning, I found out that no leaders from the province had appeared, especially Secretary Wang.
There seemed to be no movement, so all the excuses were made.
Wu Qi also pretended to say, "Secretary Zhang's matter is our Antai City Government's matter. We will fully guarantee funding and other things, and we will not let it fall to the prestige of our city government!"
Wu Qi didn't come to attend, which was just what Zhang Siwen wanted. This meeting was originally just to create momentum for news and public opinion, and it was not very grand or lively when it was held.
What a joke! However, as Yu Yan reminded, the meeting was based on his article. If he did not take the initiative to invite them, if he saw it in newspapers or TV in the future, he would definitely be resistant and might do something bad again.
Nowadays, people are invited and excused, and there is a tacit understanding between each other.
On the day of the conference, a large banner was hung in front of the Hilton Hotel - Warm congratulations on the grand opening of the symposium on Comrade Zhang Siwen's works. Several signs and flower baskets were placed in the lobby, both to congratulate the conference and to welcome the guests.
The conference room is not big, only about 100 square meters, but it is the most luxurious one in the hotel. It is well-organized and stylish. As usual, colorful flags are flying on the rostrum and surrounded by flowers. There are more than forty participants in total.
, there were eight or nine people sitting on the rostrum, completely following the official formal procedures. The owner, Governor Wang, was in the middle, Zhang Siwen was on the side, Professor Luo and the leaders of the Social Science Federation, General Office, Research Office, and Propaganda Department were on both sides.
.Every participant had a flower on his chest, name tags, tea, fruit, wet wipes in front of the seats, and document bags on the chairs. In order to create a crowded and warm atmosphere, the TV reporter even asked all service personnel, including the driver, to
Inside, everyone had to sit there and fill up all the seats, waiting for the TV to record what to do before doing anything. When Yu Yan saw that the driver Lu Hua didn't look like a scholar at all, he had an idea and quickly found some glasses to wear.
The effect on his eyes was pretty good when viewed on TV afterwards. An Tai's acquaintances did not recognize Lu Hua who was wearing glasses.
The seminar was chaired by the Deputy Secretary-General. Professor Luo gave a keynote report, focusing on discussing the reality and far-reaching historical significance of Zhang Siwen's article from a macro perspective. The other experts and scholars spoke according to the division of labor. Afterwards, many so-called experts in the news had heated discussions, but
When people come to speak at a meeting, they improvise according to the limited topic and meaning, or they simply follow the script and follow the script.
Those experts and scholars are usually frequent visitors to such occasions. They stand at the speaker's table and talk eloquently. They start from Zhang's article itself, discuss the strict structure, discuss logical relationships, and even have a dedicated person talk about its unique context.
; Some also started from Secretary Wang’s important instructions and compared a newly written article with a series of speeches and manuscripts delivered by Secretary Wang in the past few years. They found many hidden things in it and compared Secretary Wang’s
The flattery was so popular that Zhang Siwen's article was promoted for nine days. Sitting there, Yu Yan knew that many speakers had not seen Zhang Siwen's article until the moment before the meeting, and some had only read it hastily.
For a moment, when he came to the stage in a hurry, he was still eloquent and made the world go crazy.
Haha, it turns out this is an expert! Yu Yan thought.
Yu Yan discovered that when experts and scholars spoke, red clouds flew up from time to time on Professor Luo's face. Of course, it was mainly a look of pride and excitement, and sometimes it also had an element of embarrassment to those people.
As for journalists, there are already drafts co-written by doctoral students and Yu Yan, which include the words "in accordance with the spirit of Secretary Wang's important instructions" and the words "experts and scholars are far-sighted, aware of the subtleties, and enthusiastically express their opinions."
The sentence structure completely conforms to the current news format specifications.
The TV pictures broadcast afterwards were even more bizarre. I don’t know what kind of filming or editing techniques the reporters used. A conference room that was originally small suddenly became larger and deeper. The space felt several times larger. Including the service staff
There were only about forty attendees, but it actually produced a strange effect of being crowded and crowded.
At the end of the meeting, in addition to the 200 yuan meal fee per person at noon, everyone was given a red envelope as usual before leaving, ranging from a few hundred yuan to a thousand people. The Social Science Federation, Department of Philosophy, Shanda University, which hosted the meeting, "Shanlu Live"
The magazine club also had 30,000 to 50,000 yuan in hosting fees, and Yu Yan, each of the doctoral students who had helped for several days, quietly stuffed a thousand yuan into his pocket. The entire seminar ended successfully with the sound of clinking glasses.
As soon as the seminar ended, Zhang Siwen quietly rushed back to Antai. The next day, many people in Antai learned about the seminar from provincial newspapers, TV, and radio. Only then did everyone know that Zhang Siwen's article was actually
It was highly praised by Secretary Wang of the Provincial Party Committee and caused a great sensation in the provincial theoretical academic circles.
Mayor Wu Qi met Yu Yan in the corridor and shouted loudly, "Okay, the scene is quite big, this face shows well!"
Zhang Siwen responded, "If we don't let them do that, we have to refuse to listen and forcefully move out Secretary Wang, the great Bodhisattva. There is nothing we can do."
Zhang Siwen also knew that such a dialogue would inevitably be a bit fake, but no matter what, the effect of the article and the subsequent symposium far exceeded his expectations.
