It can be said that gift-giving has become an official culture and an official art. It is important to give it when, where and what to win the favor of the leader, especially for a person like Zhou Jie who has a thin face and is not good at studying.
, giving gifts is definitely a difficult and technical job. Every time he goes to give gifts to Shangguan, he will feel red in the face, as if he has done something very embarrassing.
Zhou Jie once made a joke when giving gifts. Once he went to give a gift to a leader. Because he was too nervous, he never put down the gift. When he went out, he actually picked up the gift again. So as soon as he mentioned giving gifts,
Zhou Jie instinctively resisted in his heart. He turned around and said with a grimace: "Uncle, Minister Duan and I have never met each other. It's not good to give him a gift for the first time when we meet him. Besides, I don't know what Minister Duan's preferences are."
, it is definitely not appropriate to give money, what should I give him?!...".
Zhou Jie's uncle pointed at Zhou Jie and stamped his feet and angrily reprimanded: "Why are you so stubborn in your head? Don't blame others for giving gifts. Whether they accept it or not is one thing. Whether you have the heart is another."
What's going on!...But what to give is really a question. I heard that Minister Duan is a person with a big background, so I'm afraid he won't look down on giving me ordinary things...".
After patting his head and thinking for a while, Zhou Jie's uncle finally gritted his teeth, turned around and opened a hidden safe in the study, carefully took out a yellowed stamp album from it, and touched it with trembling hands with some reluctance.
After several times, he finally handed it to Zhou Jie resolutely, "Take this, here is my lifelong collection of stamps. There are a few that can be regarded as rare treasures, and I can barely get it!"
…”.
Zhou Jie's uncle was an honest official. His only hobby was collecting stamps. Most of his life savings were spent on collecting stamps. When he was a child, Zhou Jie secretly peeked at this stamp album and was beaten severely by his uncle.
Suddenly, this stamp album contains the earliest stamps issued in China - the Dalong stamp of the Qing Dynasty, as well as the famous "The Motherland is Red". The entire stamp album should be worth more than one million yuan.
So when Zhou Jie saw his uncle taking out this stamp album, he was shocked. He waved his hands and said anxiously: "Uncle, how can this be done?! This is your life's hard work! No, I can't have it! ...
”.
Zhou Jie's uncle sighed and said: "My collection of stamps is just a kind of spiritual sustenance. These are all foreign objects. Only by making the best use of them can they achieve their maximum value. I am already old and half of my body has been buried in the loess."
, What’s the use of all this?! Just take it and work hard in the future. If you can become a provincial or ministerial-level official in the future, even if you have lived up to my hard work..."
Zhou Jie felt a warm current surge in his heart, and the root of his nose felt a little sore. He solemnly took the stamp album from his uncle's hand and said in a choked voice: "Uncle, don't worry, I will never let you down!
…”.
In the past few days, the cadres who came to Duan Zetao to report work were like crucian carp crossing the river. There was a long queue outside his office. Duan Zetao was also annoyed and ordered Fang Dongming to block them all. So as soon as Zhou Jie came to the office of the Organization Minister
Outside the door, see you
There was a long line of people waiting to be met, and I was already very nervous. After all, he was thin-faced, and it was a bit embarrassing for him to bow down to Tan Zetao, who was about the same age as him. After thinking about it, he
Prepare to turn around and leave.
At this moment, Fang Dongmin happened to raise his head and saw him. Fang Dongmin had followed Duan Zetao for many years and naturally understood Duan Zetao's thoughts very well. He quickly stopped Zhou Jie and said, "Mayor Zhou, why are you here and gone? Minister Duan is probably
I want to see you, please wait a moment, I will go in and ask for permission to see if Minister Duan is free to see you now..."
As soon as Duan Zetao heard that Zhou Jie was coming, a meaningful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Oh, this Zhou Jie is also rushing to curry favor with me? He doesn't look like a flatterer, does it mean that I
I made a mistake, okay, just ask him to come in...", for
Duan Zetao is quite confident in his own view of people, so he pushed Zhou Jie to take the position. Zhou Jie is his important move in planning East Lake and breaking the alliance between An Xuri and others. Even if Zhou Jie doesn't come to him at this time,
He will also look for opportunities to summon Zhou Jie for face-to-face discussions.
When Zhou Jie came in, Duan Zetao was flipping through documents with his head lowered. Seeing Zhou Jie come in, he didn't even raise his eyelids. He pointed to the sofa beside him and said expressionlessly: "Comrade Zhou Jie is here. You sit down first. I'll take a look."
I’ll talk to you after I finish these documents…”.
It's funny to say that when Duan Zetao was the mayor, he went to see Shi Liang, the secretary of the Jiangnan Provincial Party Committee. Shi Liang often used this trick against Duan Zetao. It seems that in the officialdom, when superiors have to consider their subordinates, they like to use this trick.
Under this deliberately created unpredictable atmosphere and pressure, subordinates tend to feel uneasy, expose their own shortcomings, and involuntarily develop a sense of awe towards their superiors.
Although Duan Zetao is not old, he has been in a high position for a long time. The pressure he exudes when he is serious is no weaker than that of Zheng Duanfeng, the secretary of the provincial party committee. As expected, Zhou Jie was very uncomfortable at first and carefully sat on the sofa for a long time.
He looked very embarrassed and uneasy, but he soon calmed down, sat up straight, put his hands flat on his knees, and looked straight ahead calmly, waiting for Duan Zetao to ask questions.
Over the years, Duan Zetao has also gained some experience in the art of fortune-telling. If a subordinate's eyes wander and sway left and right when facing his superior, it means that he is not confident enough and is not a good person. At this time, seeing Zhou Jie's performance, he felt in his heart
He couldn't help but secretly nod, maybe this Zhou Jie still has political potential.
He is a bit immature, but he is quite open-minded. Judging from the side understanding, Zhou Jie has worked his way up from the grassroots level step by step. His performance evaluation over the years has been good, and he should still have some talents, but he has to compete head-on with the cunning An Xuri.
I'm just afraid that I'll have to give some advice before it's too late.
Thinking of this, Duan Zetao raised his head and said with a smile: "Comrade Zhou Jie, you have heard the news that you are going to be the acting mayor of Donghu City, right?! Originally, according to the procedure, I would not represent the organization until the formal documents were issued.
I’m officially looking to talk to you. Since you are here today, let’s talk in advance. Do you have any ideas or ideas for the next step of Donghu City’s work?...”
Zhou Jie had prepared a lot of words of thanks before he could say them out. Unexpectedly, Duan Zetao went straight to the point and asked him to talk about his next work ideas. However, he asked about Zhou Jie's job. He was familiar with the situation in Donghu City.
I have done a lot of homework on weekdays. Now I sorted out my thoughts a little, started talking, and told Duan Zetao my long-standing ideas on how to promote the economic development of Donghu City...
