When there was no one around, Ye Ming showed a smile and said to Liu Zhengwen: "Minister Liu, I would like to invite you to come with me to have dinner with the leader from the provincial capital. Would you like it?"
Liu Zhengwen glanced at him suspiciously, and saw that he was smiling broadly and his tone was very sincere. It was hard for him to keep a straight face, but the anger in his heart was still not gone. He asked in a stiff tone: "Who is that leader?"
From the department? Are you a colleague from the Provincial Party Committee Office?"
Ye Ming nodded and said: "Yes, he is indeed my colleague in the Provincial Party Committee Office——"
As soon as he said this, Liu Zhengwen immediately interrupted him: "Secretary Ye, I'm sorry, since it's your colleague who is here to see you, you must have a lot of thoughtful things to say later, and it would be a shame if I intervened in the middle.
It's inconvenient. Besides, County Magistrate Yu, Director Li and other leaders are here to accompany you and me during their break today. Now that you are accompanying the leaders, if I leave again, won't I embarrass them? What face will I have in the future?
Come to Beishan?"
At this point, he paused and then said: "Secretary Ye, since you kindly invited me, I would like to advise you: If it is really your colleague who comes from the province to see you, I suggest you invite him over.
Come with us to eat and have fun together, which not only takes care of the mood of these comrades in Beishan, but also entertains your friends well, why not? You ignore the feelings of other comrades and act alone, it is easy to
Isolate yourself!"
It turned out that Liu Zhengwen had a preconceived misjudgment, thinking that Ye Ming was just a deputy director, and his colleagues who played well with him must be at the same level as him or lower than him, and they could not be the "important ones" he said
"Leader". What's more, even if he has one or two friends who are higher than him, those people are his leaders. It is impossible to have any particularly deep friendship with him, let alone sacrifice his rest time to come to Beishan.
Visiting.
Therefore, when Ye Ming said that his friend was his former colleague, he immediately lost interest and rejected him, while also "educating" him with a persuasive tone...
Ye Ming listened to him calmly, and then said calmly: "Minister Liu, my friend's status is a bit special. I don't want too many people to know about his coming to Beishan, let alone the county magistrate."
, Director Li and others noticed. Therefore, I can only invite him to dinner on a small scale, and ask for Minister Liu’s understanding. If you don’t want to go, then I won’t force you.”
Liu Zhengwen was surprised when he heard the words "special status" and asked quickly: "Special status? What is your friend's status?"
Ye Ming smiled and said: "His surname is Xu, and his name is Xu Lizhong. He is now the director of the First Division of the Provincial Party Committee Secretary, and he directly serves Secretary Lu."
Liu Zhengwen said "Ah!", his eyes widened instantly, and he asked in an unbelievable tone: "Secretary Ye, are you telling the truth? Director Xu came all the way from the provincial capital to visit you?"
It turns out that Liu Zhengwen was cultivated and promoted by Wang Xuewen, and he was regarded as his most loyal confidant. Last time Wang Xuewen went to the provincial capital to meet his classmate Li Chaoyang and invited Xu Lizhong to have tea, Liu Zhengwen also went with him. However, although he was of the same rank as Xu Lizhong, they were both
Although he was a senior, their status was not at the same level at all. Therefore, Wang Xuewen did not take him to see Xu Lizhong and just asked him to wait in the hotel.
Later, Wang Xuewen took him to the provincial capital again. He wanted to invite Xu Lizhong out for a meal and introduce Liu Zhengwen to him. Unexpectedly, he refused. Therefore, Liu Zhengwen had admired Xu Lizhong for a long time, and he also admired that time.
I regretted not having an appointment with him for dinner.
Unexpectedly, just now Ye Ming said in an understatement that Xu Lizhong came from the provincial capital to visit him, which made him almost unable to believe his ears for a moment. While he was ecstatic, he also felt a little unbelievable...
Ye Ming saw the surprise on Liu Zhengwen's face, which was mixed with extreme excitement and a little bit of disbelief. He felt a little funny in his heart and said: "Minister Liu, Deputy Secretary Wang is also coming from Min'an City now."
Come here, you should have arrived at Lanyuan Hotel to meet with Director Xu. If you don’t believe me, you can call Deputy Secretary Wang to confirm."
Liu Zhengwen saw that Ye Ming was serious about what he said, and he believed it eight or nine times in his heart. The color of ecstasy and excitement on his face became more and more intense. He couldn't wait to take out his mobile phone and dialed Wang Xuewen's number.
As soon as the call was connected, Wang Xuewen said with a smile: "Xiao Liu, are you with Secretary Ye now? I have arrived at the Lanyuan Hotel in Beishan and am chatting with Director Xu. Explain to the comrades in Beishan
Come on, come with Secretary Ye right away, let’s find a place to eat.”
Liu Zhengwen was so excited that he couldn't express his excitement at this time. His fair complexion suddenly turned red from being so excited. He said incoherently: "Secretary Wang... OK, OK... please tell Director Xu on your behalf."
Say hello...I'll come over with Secretary Ye right away..."
After hanging up Wang Xuewen's call, Liu Zhengwen seemed to have forgotten how many people were waiting for him in the "Lotus Hall" box. He took Ye Ming's hand and said hurriedly: "Secretary Ye, let's get to the Lanyuan Hotel quickly.
Go, we can’t keep Director Xu and Secretary Wang waiting for a long time.”
Ye Ming reminded him with a smile: "Minister Liu, there is County Magistrate Yu in the box, Director Li and others are waiting. You should at least inform them! Otherwise, they will not dare to start the meal!"
Liu Zhengwen patted his head and said, "Yes, I almost forgot about this. Secretary Ye, please wait here for a moment. I will tell them and come out. We will rush to Lanyuan Hotel immediately."
Ye Ming hurriedly stopped him and said: "Minister Liu, I think you should drink a few glasses of wine with the county magistrate and others first, and then find an excuse to come out and rush to our place. Otherwise, the comrades in Beishan will be suspicious.
, if they know about Director Xu’s coming to Beishan, it will not have much impact on Director Xu.”
At this time, Liu Zhengwen already knew that the relationship between Ye Ming and Xu Lizhong was very important, and Xu Lizhong was the person most relied on and trusted by Secretary Lu of the Provincial Party Committee. From this, it can be seen that Ye Ming's background and backstage were far beyond his ability to predict.
Yesterday, I and Chen Yaoxing were definitely wrong in their judgment about Ye Ming's identity and background.
Therefore, at this moment, his dissatisfaction with Ye Ming had long disappeared, and he was determined to marry him. He persuaded him to socialize with Yu Heguang first, and then Li Zheng and others went to Lanyuan Hotel. Although he was reluctant in his heart, he
Think about what he said
It made sense, so he rolled his eyes, took Ye Ming's hand, and whispered: "Secretary Ye, come in with me, and I will explain to County Magistrate Yu and others why you want to leave. Don't worry, I won't
