This report seems to be more meaningful in the eyes of government officials. Government officials with a little political sensitivity have noticed that this report is completely contrary to the arguments of the Jiangnan Daily some time ago, but Jiangnan Metropolis Daily is also a party newspaper. If the leader nods, this report will definitely not be published. This means that there are differences of opinions on this matter in the provincial leadership team, and it also means that there will be a new round of contests around this matter in the provincial party committee leadership team. The result of the contest is likely to change the current political structure in Jiangnan Province. Such new trends are naturally important to pay close attention to government officials, because this will have a direct impact on their career.
Ruan Dingshan, president and editor-in-chief of Jiangnan Daily, read the report and quickly called Chen Dongxing. Jiangnan Metropolis Daily was independent from Jiangnan Daily Group. Ruan Dingshan and Chen Dongxing have a good relationship on weekdays, so they naturally don’t have to take any turns. They said straightforwardly: "Old Chen, what are you doing? The report on your front page this morning is clearly a show against us! Isn’t there a conclusion on this matter? Are you not afraid of playing boards on it?..."
Chen Dongxing laughed, "Lao Ruan, am I such a brainless person? Let me tell you the truth. This report was posted by Secretary Duan of the Provincial Party Committee. It’s not that you have a good relationship with me. I won’t tell ordinary people, and you should seize the opportunity!"
"Secretary Duan of the Provincial Party Committee?" Ruan Dingshan was shocked. He thought further than Chen Dongxing. He immediately realized that Duan Zetao was going to undergo surgery on the propaganda system. Although Duan Zetao had not made any major moves for several months after taking office, and there was a lot of discussion in the public, Ruan Dingshan specially studied Duan Zetao's employment experience and found that he always made plans and then acted. Every time he turned the situation around in the end, it was obvious that he was very politically wise. When he contacted this report, an idea flashed in his mind like a flash that Duan Zetao was about to take action!
This is the time to take the team. Ruan Dingshan naturally favored Duan Zetao and immediately said without hesitation: "Old Chen, thank you! I have recorded this favor. Our Jiangnan Daily will immediately forward your report on the front page!..."
Huang Yunlong, the Provincial Party Committee Propaganda Minister, felt very comfortable. The Propaganda Minister is a member of the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee. He always has to give him some face wherever he goes. He is not as worried as the vice governors who are dealing with specific matters. The publicity work is a matter of pursuing, and the space for activities is relatively large. Originally, Duan Zetao came to Jiangnan Province to serve as the provincial party secretary, which made Huang Yunlong nervous for a while, so he accepted Zeng Qisheng's win over and prepared to jointly fight against Duan Zetao. However, Duan Zetao did not do anything except to investigate the city below for a round of research. This also made Huang Yunlong relax and gave birth to Duan Zetao's feeling.
Usually when Huang Yunlong arrived at the office, he was around nine o'clock. He held the tea made by his secretary and looked at the newspaper. It passed quickly in the morning. Today he was the same. He casually flipped through the newspaper on the desk casually. His eyes suddenly widened, he slapped the table hard and stood up, picked up the phone on the table and dialed it.
"Chen Dongxing! What's the matter? What's going on with the report posted on the front page of your newspaper? You are clearly singing a bad tune! Do you still have a little political sensitivity?..." Huang Yunlong called Chen Dongxing and scolded him angrily.
Chen Dongxing was also confused. He thought that since this report was issued by Duan Zetao, he must have been angry with Huang Yunlong, the provincial party committee propaganda minister, in advance, so he didn't think much about it. At this time, he was furious from Huang Yunlong. The county magistrate was better off now. Huang Yunlong was his immediate boss. He must consider Huang Yunlong's view on this matter. However, the report had been published and it was too late to regret it. He had to bite the bullet and say, "Minister Huang...Minister Huang, listen to my explanation. This report was posted by Secretary Duan of the Provincial Party Committee, and I dare not not post it!"
"Ah! Secretary Duan wants to issue a name?!" Huang Yunlong was shocked and immediately realized that Duan Zetao was about to make a move. He felt panic in his heart, but he still pretended to be tough and said, "Even if Secretary Duan wants to issue a name, you should be upset with me, the leader? This is the minimum respect!..."
Chen Dongxing was also a little panicked and said hesitantly: "This... this was a bit urgent at the time. I didn't have time to ask for instructions. Minister Huang to criticize. By the way, President Ruan of the Daily News said that he would forward this report on the front page..." Chen Dongxing decided to pull Ruan Dingshan into the water to disperse Huang Yunlong's anger. Although doing this is a bit unfaithful enough, he couldn't take care of so much at this time.
Sure enough, Huang Yunlong was even more anxious when he heard that Jiangnan Daily wanted to forward this report on the front page. Although Jiangnan Metropolis Daily was also a party newspaper, its status could not be compared with Jiangnan Daily. If Jiangnan Daily was forwarded on the front page, the impact would be even greater. Thinking of this, Huang Yunlong didn't bother to criticize Chen Dongxing anymore, so he hung up the phone and called Ruan Dingshan again.
Ruan Dingshan also serves as the deputy director of the Provincial Party Committee Propaganda Department, and he is an old man from the propaganda. He is much more familiar with business than Huang Yunlong, a half-baked guy, and has a higher prestige in the propaganda. Many times, Huang Yunlong has to rely on him, so Huang Yunlong is much more polite when calling Ruan Dingshan than Chen Dongxing. "Comrade Dingshan, you read the report on the Metropolitan Daily today. I think this report has a problem. The central media has also reported on the Yan Xiaohui incident before and came to a conclusion. Isn't it equivalent to confronting the central government?..."
After receiving a call from Huang Yunlong, Ruan Dingshan confirmed his guess even more. Huang Yunlong and Duan Zetao were incompatible and did not listen to hello, which prompted Duan Zetao to use the Yan Xiaohui incident to make a move on the propaganda. Compared with Huang Yunlong, the half-tongued minister, Ruan Dingshan naturally favored Duan Zetao more. On this issue, Ruan Dingshan saw much more clearly than Chen Dongxing, the chameleon.
Faced with Huang Yunlong's questioning, Ruan Dingshan was not panicked and said very toughly: "Minister Huang, I don't think there is anything wrong with this report. The responsibility of the news media is to objectively report the truth. What's more, this report was posted by Secretary Duan of the Provincial Party Committee. I fully agree with Secretary Duan's opinion. The central media will also make mistakes. This issue does not involve the issue of party spirit principles, and there is no question of confrontation with the central government..."
Huang Yunlong was so angry that he fell down on the spot, and even his subordinates turned against each other, which meant that the contest with Duan Zetao had not really begun, and he was already at a disadvantage. He thought about it and hurriedly left the office and went to Zeng Qisheng to discuss countermeasures.
