Secretary Lu and others all know that Wu Dongsheng is a person close to Director No. 1. The information he knows and holds is absolutely confidential, but it is also very accurate. Director No. 1 must have already made arrangements for personnel arrangements in each province after next year’s Party Congress. He had a preliminary idea, and Wu Dongsheng, as his secretary, knew more or less the secrets in this area.
Moreover, Wu Dongsheng usually interacts a lot with local officials in various provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities, and he must have a good understanding of the staffing of each place, the number of leadership positions, which ones are about to leave, and which ones are expected to be promoted.
Therefore, for people like Qin Ge who have been provincial governors for many years and are eager to move to the next level, the various information provided by Wu Dongsheng is very important and critical. Therefore, when Wu Dongsheng disclosed this information intentionally or unintentionally, Qin Ge I listened to the song very carefully and attentively, even reluctant to blink my eyelids, for fear of missing a key word in Wu Dongsheng's words.
As for Wu Dongsheng, because he was grateful to Qin Ge for taking the initiative to solve his problems, and because he saw that Secretary Lu seemed to have deliberately arranged for him to meet Qin Ge and Li Runji, it can be seen that he had a good relationship with Qin and Li, and maybe he also Want to help them progress.
Therefore, he reciprocated the favor and began to intentionally reveal some confidential information to Qin Ge and the others. He also decided to include Qin Ge and Li Runji in his list of close friends. If possible, he would help them rise to power. As long as they go up, two more important chips will be added to their personal connections...
Moreover, he also knew something about Qin Ge's situation. He knew that he had not been promoted for many years. Last time, a secretary position was vacated in Tianjiang Province, but it was filled by Secretary Lu out of thin air. He must be feeling disappointed and thinking very much. Going up a level, from the mouth of Chief No. 1, he also knew that Qin Ge had a good reputation among the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee. Chief No. 1 also had a good impression of him, but he felt that he was a little impatient and eager for success, so he I deliberately want to suppress him and sharpen his temperament. After next year's party congress, he is likely to be promoted to another province and no one will be in charge...
Of course, these are top secrets, and it is impossible for Wu Dongsheng to reveal them to Qin Ge.
However, after Qin Ge decided to recruit his nephew to the Tianjiang Provincial Government Office and promised to train and help him, Wu Dongsheng was really grateful in his heart, so after drinking a few more glasses of wine, he took advantage of his drunkenness. He said to Qin Ge: "Governor Qin, we have no outsiders here. Let me reveal some useful information to you: As far as I know, Comrade Liu Qing, secretary of the provincial party committee of my hometown Xijiang Province, will be old enough to withdraw from the line next year. , and at present, the central government has not yet made a clear candidate for the next secretary of Xijiang Province. It is still in the stage of deliberation and repeated weighing. Governor Qin meets the requirements in all aspects. It would be the best if he can seize this opportunity. , If Governor Qin has any use for me, I will definitely help him."
As soon as Qin Ge heard the news, his eyes immediately shone with gratitude and eagerness on his face. He quickly said to Wu Dongsheng: "Director Wu, thank you for providing me with such important information. Half a month later, I will go to the capital to hold a meeting, and then I will make a special trip to visit you to ask you some questions. Come on, let me offer you a glass of wine first to express my gratitude."
After finishing the glass of wine with Wu Dongsheng, Qin Ge picked up another glass of wine, looked at Secretary Lu with grateful eyes, and said: "Secretary Lu, I also want to propose a glass of wine to you. Everyone in this box is a fellow-minded person." People are all comrades and friends, so I won’t hide it: I do want to make progress, and I do want to have a higher and better platform to display my ambitions. Director Wu gave me an important message today. , also gave me great confidence and motivation, so I hope that you, Secretary Lu, can also help me. I know that you are a good leader who is broad-minded and kind to others. You will definitely approve and encourage my ideas of progress. Otherwise, you wouldn't have brought me to see Director Wu. I hope that in the next few months, Secretary Lu, you can say a few good words and recommendations to me at the top, and I will remember it forever."
As he spoke, he raised his glass, raised his neck and drank the glass of wine.
Secretary Lu smiled hurriedly and said: "Comrade Qin Ge, don't worry, I have said it long ago: I admire your character, your ethics, and your abilities very much, and I am very sure that if there is an opportunity for improvement, , I will definitely spare no effort to recommend you to the higher-ups, and I will definitely do my best to help you. At the same time, I also borrow this glass of wine to wish you that all your wishes will come true and you will make progress soon,"
As he spoke, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.
Li Runji felt that the opportunity was rare, so he raised his glass and stood up, smiling at Qin Ge: "Governor Qin, I also propose a glass of wine to you. I wish you that all your wishes will come true and you will be promoted step by step."
Qin Ge was in a good mood at this time. Although the two toasts Li Runji had just said were very ordinary and ordinary, they felt particularly comfortable and useful to his ears at this moment. Therefore, he quickly stood up with a big smile. He expressed his gratitude to Li Runji and took a generous sip of the glass of wine.
At this time, the banquet was coming to an end. Secretary Lu took out a red envelope with the word "longevity" on it from his bag, handed it to Wu Dongsheng, and said with a smile: "Dongsheng, it stands to reason that your mother is eighty years old." Gao Shou, as your old friend, I should have gone to your hometown in person to pay her birthday. But I have too many things to do here, and I don’t know how to do it. So, I can only use your words to pay homage to her. I have expressed my best wishes to her. This little red envelope is a small gift from me. It is meant to bring blessings and longevity to her. Please take this blessing with me."
Wu Dongsheng hurriedly stood up, bowed to Secretary Lu, and said: "Secretary Lu, on behalf of our whole family and my mother, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks for your blessings."
After saying that, he stretched out his hand and respectfully took the red envelope from Secretary Lu's hand without pretending to refuse it.
When Qin Ge and Li Runji saw Secretary Lu giving the red envelope, they quickly took it out of their respective bags, walked to Wu Dongsheng respectively, said some blessings, and then handed the red envelope to him.
Wu Dongsheng is a very filial and polite person. When Qin Ge and Li Runji expressed their blessings to his mother, he stood respectfully. At the same time, he bowed to them after they finished speaking and said something like Thank you very much and took the red envelope.
When several people were humbly walking out, Li Runji suddenly received a call from Xia Bicheng, saying that he had something to tell him, about the engagement of Ye Ming and Chu Chu, and asked if it was convenient for him to talk.
