It was almost time, Yu Yan was about to stand up and say goodbye, but before he could speak, he was stopped by Director Xin. {Free Novel}
Director Xin stretched out his hand and said, "Sit down and talk for a while. You don't think I'm too old and you don't want to chat with me?"
Yu Yan has almost mastered how to maintain a modest and cautious style. He leaned forward and said, "I'm joking, old man. It's an honor to talk to you. How many people can't even dream of getting such a good opportunity?"
!I am just a lucky boy who accidentally picked up jewelry. I only dare to think too much out of respect."
Director Xin chuckled, "I won't beat around the bush with you, let's just say it directly. I'm very interested in how Xiao Zhang opened up the situation in Antai. Xiao Yu, do you have time to talk to me, an old man? Let me listen.
Do you understand?"
Yu Yan had no reason and no desire to refuse Director Xin's kindness. The strange thing was that he didn't feel any fear or admiration for this man who was once a provincial official. Instead, he felt that he was amiable and exuded peace and harmony.
There is no so-called official aura or prestige in the atmosphere. Perhaps a person can only truly step down from his official position and put down his mask, or perhaps a person realizes that no matter how high an official position he once held, waiting for the day when he truly retires, it is just a matter of time.
Just an old man who has no choice but to face the passage of time.
Yu Yan carefully considered the sentence and selected some key parts. When Zhang Siwen first entered Antai, he first showed weakness, and then secretly attracted and divided various standing committee members. Finally, he slowly took the initiative and slowly caught up with Wu Qi. Now the momentum is on the rise.
Jin, and a series of other things were mentioned, but of course the key role he played was omitted.
After listening to this, Director Xin always had a faint smile on his face. He stretched out three fingers and said three sentences, "First, he was a little hesitant at the beginning. Second, he was not vigorous enough in his counterattack. Third, Wu Qi
It must be removed and cannot be kept!”
After saying that, he laughed self-deprecatingly, "Am I being a little too strict with Xiao Zhang? He has such a method when he first joined Antai. Although his wrist is still a little soft, he is thoughtful and steady, which is rare!"
In front of this once all-powerful figure, he could only listen attentively to his words and did not dare to express his opinions.
Seeing that Yu Yan was a little reserved, Director Xin laughed and said, "When you spoke just now, I heard you speak eloquently. Why are you speechless when you talk to me now? Do you feel pressure to talk to me?"
Yu Yan replied with a respectful attitude, "Mr.
Sometimes there are bound to be deviations, and if something is wrong, I think it is necessary to put forward different opinions."
Mr. Xin laughed loudly, "Xiao Yu, you are quite tactful in your words. Xiao Zhang is lucky to have you by his side. So tell me, what height can Xiao Zhang reach in his official career?"
Yu Yan said in embarrassment, "Secretary Zhang is my leader and my elder. He has a big future, so I can't express my opinions."
Mr. Xin said displeasedly, "Xiao Yu, young man, if you want to be energetic, say what you need to say and don't hesitate."
Having said this, Yu Yan also knew that Mr. Xin really wanted to hear his true thoughts, so he told the truth, "Old Xin, let me tell you my opinion. Just listen to it. Don't forget it."
In my heart, I personally feel that Secretary is strong when encountering the strong and weak when encountering the weak. He is very flexible. If the opponent has skills, he can deal with it calmly. If the opponent is tough, he can do unexpected things in a fit of anger.
."
After Yu Yan finished speaking, he regretted it. He knew that what he said was a bit harsh, and he didn't know why he, who had always been calm, could say such a mindless thing. One thing that is very taboo in officialdom is to talk about the merits and deeds of leaders behind their backs.
However, it is easy to make the leader jealous, that is to say, it has to be said in private. Now Yuyan really doesn't know whether Mr. Xin will tell the secretary what he just said.
Mr. Xin's face changed, a hint of anger flashed in his eyes, and he stared at Yu Yan for a long time.
After all, he was once the leader of the provincial party committee, and once his official authority was established, he was also very powerful. This was the first time in his life that Yu Yan had a face-to-face conversation with an old official who had been in politics for decades. Although Mr. Xin had been idle at home for several years, he
He had been an official all his life, stayed in the officialdom for a long time, and held a high position. Over time, he developed an oppressive aura, which made him feel quite uncomfortable.
Yu Yan said nothing, his eyes were as clear as water, he suppressed the panic in his heart, and tried to keep a calm face while looking at Mr. Xin.
I don't know how long it took, but the fitness ball in Mr. Xin's hand made a grinding sound due to its rotation. His momentum also disappeared, and then he laughed, "Why, are you scared? Haha, it seems that you know Siwen better than me.
Na!"
Seeing that Mr. Xin's aura had subsided, Yu Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
"You are right. After all, Xiao Zhang is a man of good temper. If it weren't for this, he might be the leader of the provincial party committee now, and he would not come to Antai City to be an ordinary municipal party committee secretary!" Xin Lao said.
These words were spoken in an extremely gentle tone, but when they fell in Yu Yan's heart, they were like thunder in the plains!
The secretariat will be the leader of the provincial party committee?!
How is this possible? How old is the secretary?!
"Why, you don't believe it?" Mr. Xin looked funny, as if he was watching a clown.
Yu Yan shook his head cooperatively. To be honest, he really didn't believe it.
"Haha, Xiao Yu, this is your secretary's private matter. I won't say more here. I'll ask you another question." Xin Lao recalled something and swallowed it again, "Do you think Xiao Zhang is good at trusting others?"
Someone else?"
Yu Yan nodded, he was sure of this, because he was a living example.
"No, no!" Mr. Xin shook his finger, "Xiao Yu, you are definitely a weirdo, or an exception. If you measure others based on your position in Xiao Zhang's heart, you are definitely wrong!
"
"Oh?" Yu Yan looked questioning, he really couldn't figure out whether this was true or not.
"You have been with Xiao Zhang for a long time. Let me ask you, have you ever seen Zhang Siwen have a particularly close relationship with anyone?" Mr. Xin refused to answer Yan Yan, and then said to himself, "No! I have been an official for so long.
, Xiao Zhang is the person who is least likely to trust others, but once he trusts someone, he will spare no effort to support him and protect him."
Yu Yan's eyes widened. He knew that if Mr. Xin didn't tell lies to fool him at his age, he must be telling the truth. If he said this, wouldn't he be the greatest luck?
"Xiao Yu, you have a cautious side in your character. I appreciate this very much. By following Xiao Zhang, you can help him get rid of his shortcomings as much as possible. If you really do this, Xiao Zhang's path will be easier than Xiao Zhang's.
There are many thunders, you understand?" Mr. Xin calmed down and continued, "Of course, the way to be an official is not to be cautious at all times. To the leader, sometimes you have to dare to tell the truth, dare to contradict, and dare to express different opinions.
At the county level, if you want to be promoted to the city level, in addition to having political achievements, you must also work hard. At the city level, it is different. Once most officials are promoted to the city level, they will have the consciousness to benefit the country through serving as an official.
, because from the municipal level to the provincial and municipal levels, 80% of officials will not be able to pass this hurdle. Since they cannot pass it, they must leave a reputation. Once they rise to the level of consciousness, they will have the ambition to look at the world. At this time, he will
I hope that all of his subordinates are not just flatterers. He needs to have a group of doers under his subordinates who are innovative and pragmatic...Xiao Yu, the road depends on you, but the status is different, the vision is different, and the mentality of leaders at each level is different.
, do you still think that this old man like me is too wordy?"
With decades of political experience, Mr. Xin has been promoted step by step from the grassroots to the leadership of the provincial party committee. His experience is a huge asset. He speaks from his personal experience. Although he does not go into detail, Yu Yan is impressed by his few words.
He benefited a lot and learned a lot about how to get along with third-level leaders. It made his eyes light up and felt like he could see the sun through the clouds!
Xin Lao's frank confession was an affirmation and encouragement to him. He was ecstatic, stood up suddenly, and bowed deeply to Xin Lao, "Thank you, Xin Lao, for your teachings. I will keep them in mind. I am by the secretary's side."
, you can rest assured."
Mr. Xin's face was full of joy, "I was just talking to myself, what did I say? People are easy to forget when they are old..."
Yu Yan smiled and said nothing. Mr. Xin was actually a little angry with him when he said this. His words just now were a bit too much, but he did have good intentions.
Yu Yan also knew that Mr. Xin valued him, and it was also because he was now Zhang Siwen's most trusted person.
Seeing Mr. Xin squinting his eyes, he seemed to be sleepy while talking. As people get older, they sleep more and get sleepy easily. Yu Yan treated him as an ordinary old man, bowed to him, and quietly opened the door and went out.
As soon as he went out, Mr. Xin opened his eyes again and smiled proudly, like a child who had deceived others.
Little children, when they grow old, they may become like children again, with changeable personalities.
After leaving the provincial party committee compound, Yu Yan felt much more relaxed. He felt that although the scenery in No. 1 Courtyard was pleasant, it always gave people a depressing and gloomy feeling. Perhaps the people inside had been immersed in the power circle for too long, and their personalities
I can't let go, and the people inside are either family members or retired high-ranking officials. They can't let go of the past scenery. The more they miss me, the more depressed they become.
Yu Yan smiled and forgot about the Provincial Party Committee Courtyard. Seeing that it was still early, he hesitated to meet Yang Yi. He first called Zhang Siwen and told him about his meeting with Mr. Xin.
, especially the matter that Lei Weidong, deputy secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, promised to come forward to help, was also explained in detail. Zhang Siwen was surprised and happy after hearing this. Yu Yan, Dongfeng solved it for him this time, and he could ask Secretary Lei to do it for him.
What a huge surprise when he spoke, and then he said from time to time, "Okay, okay!"
At the end of the phone call, Zhang Siwen told him to walk around more in the provincial capital. Now that everything is calm in Antai, he doesn't have to rush back.
