As soon as Xia Bicheng heard that Secretary Lu started asking him for his thoughts and suggestions on the work of the Department of Finance, he immediately understood: his guess just now was completely correct. Secretary Lu came to him this time not simply to ask him to report on the whole situation. Provincial local tax revenue situation, but a kind of investigation and in-depth understanding of himself. Moreover, judging from the content of his question, he probably wants to transfer himself to the Department of Finance to replace the old director who is about to retire...
Although the Department of Finance and the Provincial Local Taxation Bureau are at the same level, the Department of Finance is a department in charge of the distribution of fiscal revenue in the province. Therefore, the director of the Department of Finance has always been the secretary of the provincial party committee or a confidant of the provincial governor. In this sense, He said that the director of the Department of Finance obviously has a higher status and a better future than the director of the Local Taxation Bureau. Under normal circumstances, if the director of the Department of Finance is not too old and has not made any mistakes, he will be further promoted in the future. It is very likely that If he could be promoted to deputy governor, or even if he didn't succeed, he would go to the Provincial People's Congress or the Provincial Political Consultative Conference to serve as deputy director or vice chairman for one term. Xia Bicheng knew this very well.
Therefore, in the past few years, although he has been the director of the Provincial Local Taxation Bureau, he has been studying and analyzing the current situation of the province's financial system, existing shortcomings and problems, in order to prepare for the future position of director of the Provincial Department of Finance. Be prepared for a rainy day and make mental and business preparations in advance.
However, during the last major adjustment, he got a very frustrating news from Secretary Li Runji: Secretary Lu was not very fond of him, so he was not included in the list of promotions or adjustments. This point once made him confused and distressed, but there was nothing he could do about it: because he had no idea what exactly made Secretary Lu dissatisfied with him, and Secretary Li was a tight-lipped person and would not tell him at all. Secretary Lu’s true thoughts: I want to work hard to win Secretary Lu’s favor, but it’s like a weasel killing a cow. I don’t know where to start...
Unexpectedly, just when I felt extremely helpless and desperate, Secretary Lu came to me and immediately revealed his intention to me: he wanted me to work in the Provincial Department of Finance...
After sorting out the clues, Xia Bicheng barely suppressed his excitement. After thinking for a moment, he began to talk, and told Secretary Lu all his usual opinions and suggestions on strengthening the province's financial work in an orderly manner. .
While listening, Secretary Lu nodded frequently and cast approving glances at him from time to time, which greatly encouraged him. His thinking became clearer and his articulation became sharper...
When Xia Bicheng finished speaking, Secretary Lu said a few more words of encouragement and praise to him, and then said: "Comrade Xia Bicheng, this is where we talk about work today. Before you leave, I have a private matter to discuss." You talk about it,"
Xia Bicheng originally wanted to hear Secretary Lu give him a hint or a promise. In that case, he would feel much more at ease. However, Secretary Lu never gave any hint or promise from beginning to end, which made him slightly disappointed. .
However, after thinking about it, he felt relieved again: a leader with the status of Secretary Lu is very cautious and cherishes his words like gold. Even if he wants to promote himself tomorrow, he will never make any clear promise to himself today. The fact that he was able to ask his views on the province's financial work so straightforwardly today has actually shown his attitude. If he can't even understand this, then he is really a little stupid...
At this moment, when he heard Secretary Lu suddenly say that he had something private to discuss with him, he was startled at first. He stared at Secretary Lu attentively, and after being stunned for a moment, he quickly showed a smile and said: "Secretary Lu, what can you tell me? The next instruction is, I will carry it out to the letter,”
Secretary Lu smiled and said: "I can't give instructions on this matter, but I want to ask for your opinion. It's like this: Last time at Comrade Runji's house, I promised your daughter Chu Chu that I would give her As a matchmaker with Ye Ming, I was too busy with work and forgot about this matter. Yesterday, your daughter called my secretary Xu Lizhong and started to accuse me of not being trustworthy and not doing what I promised. Yes, after Xiao Xu told me this, I felt a little ashamed, hahaha,"
Speaking of this, Secretary Lu paid attention to Xia Bicheng's reaction. Seeing that his face was uncertain, and he was probably still dissatisfied with Ye Ming, he suppressed his smile and said in a very solemn tone: "Comrade Xia Bicheng, listen to Chu Chu Say, you have some opinions and opinions on Ye Ming, and you have always opposed Chu Chu’s relationship with him. Is this the case?”
Xia Bicheng was shocked when he heard that Secretary Lu's tone and expression suddenly changed, and he clearly showed dissatisfaction. He quickly put on a smile on his face and denied it repeatedly: "Secretary Lu, it's nothing, it's nothing, Chu Chu This girl is good at everything, but she has been spoiled by her mother since she was a child. She is a bit aggressive when talking and doing things, and if she doesn't get what she wants, she will act like a spoiled brat. For example, regarding her and Ye Ming, I am not against their relationship. It's not that I look down on Xiaoye, but I feel that Xiaoye doesn't seem to like Chuchu very much, and he had a girlfriend earlier, and now I heard that he had an affair with a married man in their bureau, so I advised Chuchu to be more cautious. I didn’t mean anything else. I didn’t expect that this little girl would actually come to you to file a complaint against me. Haha, it’s really hard for a woman to stay.”
Secretary Lu had long expected that he would mention the matter between Ye Ming and Chen Yi, so he said to him: "Yesterday, after Chu Chu found Xiao Xu, I called Comrade Runji to ask for his opinion on this matter. You also know that Xiaoye is an orphan, and the person he is closest to now is Comrade Runji. Therefore, if I want to be a matchmaker, I must ask for his opinion. Comrade Runji told me: There are some articles about Xiaoye on the Internet. Rumors, at the same time, someone has been filing a complaint against Ye Ming. However, after his investigation, he found that the things on the Internet and in the complaint letter were all absurd rumors and false accusations. Moreover, your daughter Chu Chu was not I believe those rumors and am willing to establish a relationship with Xiao Ye. After understanding these situations, I, the matchmaker, feel relieved. Therefore, I will take this opportunity today to formally seek your opinion. If you do not object to Chu Chu talking to Ye Ming Love, I will ask you for a wedding drink. If you really feel that Chu Chu and Ye Ming are not suitable, then just assume that I did not say what I said above, but I also hope that you will not interfere too much in the affairs between the two young people. ,"
As soon as he said this, Xia Bicheng felt cold sweat break out on his forehead: Secretary Lu had already spoken to this extent, and this was the result of his discussion with Secretary Li Runji. What would happen if he persisted in his opposition? ,
