Chapter Thirty-Four: The Traffic Director who loves to show off
After the phone call was connected, Duan Zetao reported the matter to Zhang Xiaochuan, "Minister Zhang, does the guarantee you gave me back then still count?". [ ]
Zhang Xiaochuan was also furious at what Gulin County did. He laughed angrily and said, "You brat, don't attack my army. Of course what I said counts. Give Liu Mingzheng the phone number!".
Liu Mingzheng saw that Duan Zetao had really made the call and was joking with Zhang Xiaochuan on the phone. He was still a little doubtful. As soon as he answered the phone, he heard Zhang Xiaochuan's majestic voice coming from the phone.
"County Chief Liu, I heard that your county is going to misappropriate the funds that Township Chief Duan has worked so hard to get from the province. Is this true? Let me tell you, this money was allocated to Shanglin Township by the Provincial Department of Transportation.
Regarding the special funds, Township Head Duan specifically reported to Secretary Sun and me. Secretary Sun instructed that the funds should be earmarked for special use and no one should misappropriate them! Oh, wait a minute, Secretary Sun wants to talk to you!"
It turned out that Zhang Xiaochuan happened to be reporting to work in Sun Xianglong's office. Sun Xianglong understood what was going on from Zhang Xiaochuan's call and immediately grabbed Zhang Xiaochuan's cell phone and started talking.
Sun Xianglong has a hot temper and always hates evil. The cadres below are in awe of him. He is not as polite as Zhang Xiaochuan in his speech.
"Liu Mingzheng, you are so promising! You have learned how to be a bandit and robbed on the road. If you have the ability, why don't you go to the provincial capital to ask for funds? If you have the ability, why don't you help me improve the economy of Gulin County? I heard that you are still
If you want to remove Xiao Duan from your post, I tell you, if you dare to misappropriate the province’s special funds, I will remove you from your post first!”.
Liu Mingzheng was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat when he received the call from Zhang Xiaochuan. After being scolded by Sun Xianglong, he was so frightened that he slumped in his chair and was speechless for a long time. After a while, he looked at Duan Zetao with a complicated expression.
He walked out of the conference room without looking back.
The other members of the Standing Committee were all shocked. Sun Xianglong’s voice on the phone just now was loud and everyone heard it. This was a slap in the face! What is the background of Duan Zetao?! He can actually get the secretary of the prefectural committee to support him. No wonder he dares to do so.
Get angry at the County Party Committee Standing Committee!
The Standing Committee ended in vain, but the news that Duan Zetao defeated the county magistrate on the Standing Committee spread throughout the officialdom of Gulin like it had wings. People once again saw the astonishing energy of Duan Zetao, the powerful township magistrate!
Liu Shanbiao, the richest man in Gulin, was very happy when he heard the news. After returning home, he scolded Liu Dahai who was still reflecting at home, leaving Liu Dahai confused.
Liu Yi, who was studying at the party school, heard the news and banged his head against the wall in despair. He could no longer see any hope of overthrowing Duan Zetao.
When the people of Shanglin Township heard the news, they celebrated with gongs and drums. If it weren't for Duan Zetao, a strong township leader who made decisions for the people, Shanglin Township's muddy roads would have been in ruins for who knows how long.
The happiest person was Ma Fugui. He never expected that Duan Zetao would turn the tide at the last moment and make Liu Mingzheng lose face. After the meeting, not only Yuan Heping, the deputy secretary of the party and the masses, went to the office to report to him, but also the publicist who had always been close to Liu Mingzheng.
Minister Ma Shandong also secretly expressed to him that he wanted to join him, and he would feel proud in the Standing Committee meetings from now on.
Duan Zetao naturally knew that he did not have a big backer like the secretary of the prefectural committee as rumored by the outside world. The reason why Sun Xianglong supported him was entirely because he was on the side of justice. This incident made him understand a truth, as long as you can
If you truly speak for the interests of the people, the people will be your biggest backers! This has also become his criterion for being an official in the future!
The Department of Transportation also acted quickly. Duan Zetao received a call from Director Ma informing him that Director Chen would come down with an inspection team to inspect in person three days later. He immediately reported the matter to Sun Xianglong, Secretary of the Prefectural Committee.
Sun Xianglong instructed Duan Zetao to attach great importance to the reception of this inspection to ensure that nothing went wrong. At that time, the prefectural committee would be accompanied by Commissioner Lei personally because Sun Xianglong had to go to the province for a meeting, and the county would be accompanied by Ma Fugui and Liu Mingzheng throughout the process.
Through the last contact with Chen Daomin, Duan Zetao felt that Chen Daomin was a person who enjoyed great achievements and liked to show off, so he specifically contacted Shi Tao and asked him to help find some media reporters to report the matter. He also made some arrangements in the countryside.
On the third day, Duan Zetao and Zhong Hanliang took the old jeep from the village and went to the county early to meet up with Ma Fugui, Liu Mingzheng and the others, and they went to the entrance of the county road to wait.
Ma Fugui called Duan Zetao aside with a smile and asked: "Zetao, have the reception work been arranged properly? We have to make sure that nothing goes wrong! This is related to whether Shanglin Township's 60 million road construction funds can be smoothly received, but you
I can rest assured when doing things!”.
Duan Zetao was about to answer when suddenly a van drove up in front with the words "News Reporting Van" printed on it. The van stopped and a group of people got out of the van. Duan Zetao saw that they were all acquaintances. Shi Tao, a reporter from the Provincial Daily, and Liu Liu, a reporter from the Evening News.
Hunan, Economic TV reporter Xu Xiaodong, the last one turned out to be Xie Na!
Shi Tao waved to Duan Zetao from afar and said: "Zetao, how are you? I'm so proud that I've called you all the most famous names in the provincial capital!" Duan Zetao hurriedly greeted him, while Xie Na kept looking at her with resentful eyes.
Looking at Duan Zetao, Duan Zetao felt a little embarrassed and quickly introduced Shi Tao and the others to Ma Fugui.
Ma Fugui was overjoyed and thought to himself, this Duan Zetao really has great supernatural powers, he actually called so many provincial media reporters over at once. This is a living Bodhisattva that he can't usually invite.
Liu Mingzheng, who had been hiding aside and smoking a cigarette, now had an attitude towards Duan Zetao that he couldn't afford to offend him and could hide away. Now seeing Duan Zetao calling so many reporters so coquettishly, he felt even more depressed.
After a while, a convoy drove over in a mighty manner. At the front was a police car clearing the way, behind was a brand-new Audi, which should be Chen Daomin's car, and behind it was a blue car with a Shannan District Government license plate.
Bird, followed by seven or eight Cheetah off-road vehicles, all of the same color, with a very majestic momentum.
"Coming, coming!" Ma Fugui perked up, with a warm smile on his face. He leaned forward slightly, as if he was ready to rush forward and shake hands with the leader. Liu Mingzheng also put out his cigarette butts.
He greeted him with a smile.
Chen Daomin was not in a good mood. As the director of the transportation department in charge of the province's road construction funds, the reception he received was often higher than that of the ordinary deputy governor of the extraordinary committee. After all, the deputy governor did not have the right to grant funds to someone at once.
The region has tens of millions of funds, but this time he approved 60 million for Shannan. The secretary of the Shannan Prefectural Committee did not come to accompany him in person, but sent a second-in-command to accompany him. No wonder he was unhappy.
Shannan Commissioner Lei Dongwang, who was sitting in the Bluebird car behind him, was also in a very unhappy mood. He was a cadre promoted from Shannan, and he could be said to be the 'Tu Emperor'. Even Sun Xianglong, who had always been strong, had to respect him. He didn't want this.
Director Chen, who came from the province, gave him a stern face when he heard that Sun Xianglong had not come to a meeting in the province. If Sun Xianglong hadn't repeatedly told him that he must do a good job in reception, he might have had a seizure on the spot.
Although Lei Dongshi didn't get angry on the spot, his emotions were revealed unconsciously. We are all department-level cadres. What kind of awesomeness are you?! I don't want to serve you anymore! So he said hello to Chen Daomin and got into the car.
He couldn't come out anymore, which made Chen Daomin even more unhappy.
Therefore, when Chen Daomin got out of the car, his face was serious, and Ma Fugui and Liu Mingzheng, who came up to him with smiles on their faces, looked at each other in confusion, not knowing where they had offended this great man from the province.
.
The attentive Duan Zetao noticed that Lei Dongshi was standing far away from Chen Daomin, with a dead face. He vaguely guessed what was going on, and quickly stepped forward and said: "Director Chen, let me introduce you to a few people from the province.
Mingji, they heard from me yesterday that you were concerned about transportation construction in mountainous areas, so they came here overnight!" After that, he secretly winked at Shi Tao.
Shi Tao understood, and hurriedly stepped forward, holding a notebook in hand and said: "Director Chen, I am Shi Tao, a reporter from the Provincial Daily. I heard that you went into the mountainous areas for frontline research and cared about the transportation construction in the mountainous areas during your busy schedule. I found it very meaningful and prepared to follow up and report the whole process!
"Xu Xiaodong saw the opportunity and immediately asked the photographer to set up the camera and pretended to be interviewing.
Chen Daomin glanced at Duan Zetao meaningfully, and his face immediately turned gloomy. This little Duan is really good at getting things done. Before he came, he asked his office to contact the major media, but the reply he got was that he was talking about the recent activities of provincial leaders.
There were quite a lot of people, so I couldn't send anyone to accompany me for interviews and reports. I didn't expect Duan Zetao to be ready, and the people he called were all famous reporters from the provincial capital.
After he gave an impassioned speech to the camera, he patted Duan Zetao on the shoulder and said: "Xiao Duan, you are very good at doing things. Get in my car and let's go to the front and have a look!" After that, he took Duan Zetao with him.
After getting in the car, I left Lei Dongshi, Ma Fugui and the others aside.
Ma Fugui and Liu Mingzheng did not dare to lose their temper. They smiled bitterly and quickly got into their cars and followed.
Lei Dongshi frowned. He had heard the name Duan Zetao too frequently recently. Mainly because Liu Yilao complained to him about having such a subordinate with a mysterious background. He acted domineeringly, loved to express himself, and disrespected his superiors.
lead.
Now it seems that what Liu Yi said is true. Just say that Chen Daoming is a bit arrogant today. You, a small township head, didn't come up to pay homage when he saw the district commissioner. Do you still care about me, your immediate boss?
, it looks like I need to find an opportunity to give it a good beating.
Chen Daoming didn't expect that the roads in Shanglin Township were so bad. Sitting in the car was like sitting on a small boat in a sea hit by a level 7 tsunami. It was so bumpy that the chassis of his brand-new Audi was bumped many times.
The driver grinned in pain. At this time, God also came to cause trouble. It started to rain, and the road became more and more muddy and difficult to walk. Chen Daoming couldn't help but frowned again.
