The officialdom is like a food chain, one link after another. You don't know when you did something wrong or angered someone, which will affect your future development.
Tang Zhiguo never dreamed that such a strange thing would happen.
He was just trying his best to promote the construction of the new city arranged by Mr. Yang, but he actually offended a Bodhisattva who should not be messed with. The old leader refused to answer his phone calls and did not say anything. Deputy Mr. Fan of the Municipal Party Committee even called and made it clear that he would meet in person tomorrow.
come over.
With his brows furrowed together, Tang Zhiguo pushed his wife who was sleeping next to him and said in a low voice: "Call your brother and ask him to stop the project first. What happened? The matter can actually reach the province.
!”
…………………………
…………………………
The next morning, Lu Rui received a call from Fan Tao. On the phone, Fan Tao expressed his apology sincerely and said that he originally planned to treat Lu Rui to dinner in person in the evening, but as a result, an inspection team from the province came temporarily and needed
If you want to deal with it yourself, you can only ask Tang Zhiguo, the leader of the Fu District Party Committee, to come forward. Please don't mind this, Director Lu.
Lu Rui nodded indifferently. He had already handed over his words. What to do was a matter for the Qicheng City Committee. If he was smart, he would resolve the matter quickly. Lu Rui would take Shi Guang and others through the procedures and then return to the provincial capital.
If he didn't regard himself as a dish, then Lu Rui wouldn't mind giving some eye drops to some people in front of Han Dingbang. Anyway, his title as the director of the Provincial Party Committee's Inspection Office is not a decoration. If he reported problems to the provincial party committee leaders, he would not mind.
It's against the rules.
The location of the hotel was chosen by Tang Zhiguo. He called Lu Rui in advance and politely asked Director Lu where he liked to eat. Lu Rui replied nonchalantly that Tang *** was casual.
In any case, Lu Rui had a very bad impression of Mr. Tang. He was really not very good at tormenting the people below him just for the sake of the boss's face-saving project.
Lu Rui didn't know where to eat. After asking Liu Nan, he found out that it was a famous restaurant in the rich district. Some officials in the district liked to eat here, and some people with some status also insisted on going here.
On the side, it seems that as long as you have eaten at this place called Red Garden Hotel, your status will become higher.
Lu Rui sneered at this, and Shi Guang said directly, I'm afraid the food in this restaurant is average, and these people should be doing it to show their identity and status.
Lu Rui naturally had to bring Chen Ming and Shi Guang to this dinner. Liu Nan was annoyed and didn't know how to deal with these people in the officialdom, so she simply didn't come.
Naturally, the district committee secretary had to use the best box to entertain guests. In the top-notch box of the Red Garden Hotel, Lu Rui met this Tang ***. After all, it was the district committee secretary, and he was cheering and hugging him.
It was lively. In addition to a group of sub-district leaders, there were even several beauties. One of them was a very beautiful woman who was introduced as the host of the district TV station. Tang Zhiguo introduced all the district committee leaders who came today to Lu Rui and others.
Although Lu Rui had a good memory, he didn't deliberately remember it. After the banquet, he didn't remember any of them. The only thing that impressed him was that the beautiful host had been sitting next to Tang Zhiguo during the banquet, and the two of them
The personal attitude was very ambiguous, and Lu Rui knew with his toes that the relationship between these two people was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
There are always two types of people in the officialdom, one is officials and the other is officials.
Officials, also called officials, are the general term for government staff. They can refer to any of the nine official positions in the Chinese feudal era. Lower-level officials are filled by people who have passed the Chinese classic literature examination.
Lu Rui read it from a book that introduced the origin of officialdom. In the oracle bone inscriptions, the radical of the official character is the character "人". Originally, Lu Rui thought that the character "人" should refer to normal human beings.
But to his surprise, the human character did not refer to the person represented in the oracle bone script, but referred to the cover of the house. In other words, the raised pointed roof of the ancient Chinese house was, to put it bluntly, the treasure hijab.
.And the meaning of this radical is to cover or cover. The second half of the official character has a much simpler meaning. It is the two mouths standing up, which is the mouth. The knowledge of these two mouths is huge.
Yes, you can understand it as zhongkou, so this official word means to command the people, which naturally means to manage the common people, which is the so-called governing the people.
Of course, there are also vulgar metaphors, saying that these two mouths are the upper and lower mouths of a person. In fact, this understanding means that words are rough but not rough. Think about it, you can control other people's eating, drinking, and peeing, so what else is there?
What's under your control?
Therefore, the so-called official, to put it bluntly, is the head of the official.
The characters for official and official are different. Although in daily life, officials are often called together, there is actually a big difference. The so-called official is the subordinate of the official. To be precise, he is responsible for doing things.
staff. In ancient China, it can be said that there was a clear distinction between officials and officials. Even in foreign countries, officials and officials were also clearly distinguished. For example, in the United States and Japan, there were administrative officers and affairs officers.
Division, the so-called political affairs officers, to put it bluntly, are what we call officials in ancient China, while affairs officers are officials. Of course, this distinction in titles has been blurred in modern China, and everyone is called a civil servant. On the surface,
They all seem to be similar. In fact, if we strictly distinguish them, the top leaders of the party and government are considered officials, and the rest are probably the so-called officials. However, this is only a relative term. For example, a municipal party committee secretary and a municipal official
Chiefs, compared to the lower districts and counties, they are officials. But compared to the provincial party committee, they are officials.
It may be a bit convoluted to say this, but in short, in the officialdom of China, if you want to tell who is an official and which is a clerk as quickly as possible, then watch a group of people get together.
You can tell by the way he looks. Among a group of people, whoever raises his head the highest is an official, and the others who bow their heads and follow that person must be officials.
To Lu Rui's surprise, he originally thought that since Tang Zhiguo was the secretary of Yang Jun, the Qicheng Party Committee boss, he should at least maintain a low-key and cautious style like other secretaries, just like Chen Yang and other people Lu Rui knew.
Secretaries, they all look pretty much the same. They always maintain a low-key and cautious style, don't steal the limelight, don't cause trouble, and even look a little humble. But such people can often become successful in the future.
But this doesn't seem to be the case with Mr. Tang. It seems that after he left his leadership, he became very high-profile because he took the position of chairman of the district committee.
At the very least, in front of Lu Rui, this Tang *** held his head very high and spoke loudly, even though he was not very tall.
After a warm introduction, Lu Rui, Tang Zhiguo and others took their seats respectively.
Hu Hai, director of the district committee office, asked in a low voice: "***, what are you drinking today?"
Lu Rui opened his mouth and was about to speak, but Tang Zhiguo burst into laughter, stared and said, "You're out of your mind. You're inviting the leaders of the provincial party committee to dinner. Do you have the nerve to drink badly? Give me good wine! Here's a box.
Maojiu!”
Lu Rui smiled bitterly and watched as Tang Zhiguo's secretary and the director of the county party committee went downstairs, and soon came up with a box of Mao liquor.
Speaking of Maojiu, Lu Rui thought of a joke. I don’t know since when in recent years, Maojiu has become a special wine for consumption with public funds. Everyone always likes to have a little Maojiu when eating. It doesn’t matter how expensive it is.
, the public pays the bill! Companies with deep pockets such as some petroleum and petrochemical companies even use money as if it is money and buy it desperately. The joke circulating on the Internet is: "I drink Maojiu for the motherland!" This is what these companies are talking about.
He's a bastard who takes taxpayers' financial subsidies and then spends public funds arrogantly.
But around 2012, the country began to meaningfully limit the amount of public funds consumed. Especially at the beginning of 2012, the Premier of the State Council personally mentioned at the Fifth Integrity Work Conference of the State Council that the "three public" funds should be strictly controlled and the use of public funds was prohibited.
Purchase cigarettes, high-end wine and gifts with public funds. Strengthen vehicle establishment management, clean up and standardize the purchase and use of off-road vehicles. All units’ official reception expenses, official vehicle purchase and operating expenses, and overseas travel expenses must be disclosed in detail. Administrative agencies and state-owned enterprises must be strictly controlled
Public institutions build and decorate office buildings and other halls. It is prohibited to exceed the standard use and luxuriously decorate offices. It is prohibited to use public funds and use government agencies to influence purchases, and to collect exotic flowers and stones and high-end artworks to decorate office areas. Strictly control and standardize celebrations and seminars.
, forums and other activities, state-owned and state-controlled enterprises, and state-owned financial institutions are not allowed to sponsor the above-mentioned activities that have nothing to do with business operations.
As soon as this news came out, the stock price of high-end liquor fell, and Maojiu's market value shrank by 14.2 billion yuan in one day!
Recalling what the general manager of Maojiu said in an interview: "If you don't drink Maojiu for public consumption, what kind of wine should you drink? Should you drink Lafite?" Lu Rui couldn't help but sneer and drank with the country's money.
Ten thousand yuan worth of good wine, why?
In this life, Lu Rui hates such consumption of public funds. No matter where he is, as long as he has the final say, he will resolutely control the amount of consumption of public funds. According to Lu Rui, the country is enough to support civil servants like us.
It's better for everyone to be more careful and not put more pressure on the people.
Looking at the Maojiu on the table, Lu Rui smiled lightly and said, "Tang ***, this wine is not cheap."
Tang Zhiguo was stunned, thinking that Lu Rui was too drunk, so he laughed and said: "Don't worry, Director Lu, there is nothing else, the wine management is enough! When Director Lu comes to our rich area, I, Old Tang, will naturally be the landlord, otherwise the city will
The leaders here can’t get around me!”
Narrowing his eyes, Lu Rui felt a burst of anger in his heart for no reason. It seemed that Tang *** didn't understand the situation!
