The Tianhai Municipal Party Committee and Government Building is located in the east of the city center. It is a majestic sixteen-story building. Thick granite stone columns, exquisite white marble railings, multi-layered steps, and wide and neat garden lawns all show this
The identity and style of the building.
On the 12th floor of the building, facing south, there is an office of about 30 square meters, with rosewood-decorated walls, multi-level ceilings, golden teak floors and wool carpets on the floor, and well-crafted dark mahogany bookcases.
, desks, leather sofas, spider plants, pothos and other potted plants bring a little bit of life during the decoration. There is a word hanging on the wall behind the desk, which is written in cursive:
The bamboo stick and mango shoes are lighter than the horse. Who is afraid of living in the mist and rain for the rest of his life?
A middle-aged man in his forties with a Chinese character face wearing a gray suit was sitting on a leather high-backed office chair. His lips were tightly pursed and his thick eyebrows were slightly frowned. He rubbed his temples with his right index finger, as if he was being touched.
What troubles are bothering you.
Bang bang, a gentle knock on the door sounded.
"Please come in." The middle-aged man put down his right hand and said.
The solid wooden door was gently pushed open, and an elegant man about thirty years old wearing glasses walked in, holding a folder in his hand.
"Vice Mayor He, here are the minutes of yesterday's meeting."
"Oh, Secretary Lin, put it here." The middle-aged man pointed to a corner of the large desk.
Secretary Lin nodded, put the folder on the desk, turned around and left, and gently closed the door.
The middle-aged man didn't seem to be interested in the meeting minutes. He stood up, walked slowly to the floor-to-ceiling window, and looked at the scenery outside. The curtains were half opened, and the warm sunlight shone in, making people feel warm, but
It didn't seem to dispel the haze in his heart.
We have received definite news that Mayor Chen will be transferred in the middle of the year, and it has been leaked from the Provincial Party Committee that the new mayor will not be transferred from outside. This is a great opportunity for me, the deputy mayor in charge of industry, to make further progress. But
The competition is also fierce, especially for the young and powerful deputy mayor Qian, who is very troublesome.
The political achievements I have accumulated over the years are still no advantage. The biopharmaceutical factory project of the Australian Jiang Group, which I originally had high hopes for, is also in trouble and has great variables. Director Xia of the China Merchants Bureau is still working hard to get it.
What else has not been done? Vice Mayor He fell into deep thought.
The knock on the door sounded again.
Secretary Lin opened the door.
"Deputy Mayor He, Director Xia is here."
Before he finished speaking, a man about fifty years old, with a thin face and obvious bags under his eyes walked into the office.
"Lao Xia, come, sit, sit." Vice Mayor He greeted with a smile.
Director Xia and Vice Mayor He sat down on the leather sofa respectively. Secretary Lin took out the pastel fine porcelain tea set from the cabinet and made tea for them.
"Lao Xia, let's drink tea first and then talk about work." Vice Mayor He raised his hand to signal.
Director Xia nodded, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. His brows furrowed slightly, which was unnoticeable.
But this did not escape Vice Mayor He's keen eyes.
"What? Lao Xia, this is the best Biluochun I have here. Is it not to your liking?"
Director Xia was a little embarrassed.
"No, no, this tea is quite good, but it's just something special that I saw a few days ago."
"Oh, it must be pretty good to be praised by your old Xia." Vice Mayor He was slightly surprised.
"Haha, the tea at that place is really good." Director Xia said with a smile, but he felt that he was not here for small talk today, so he immediately brought the conversation to the main topic.
"Vice Mayor He, I'm here to report on the affairs of the Australian Jiang Group. It seems that the situation is not ideal at the moment."
"Tell me more specifically." Vice Mayor He said calmly.
"Chenyang City has sent people to take the members of the inspection team around, and promised to provide the most favorable policies. After all, it is a five- to six-billion-dollar project. Who wouldn't be jealous. When it comes to infrastructure and investment environment,
The gap between us and others is quite big. I learned about it, and except for Mr. Jiang, all other members of the inspection team seem to be biased towards Chenyang City." Director Xia said, his face a little gloomy.
"Mr. Jiang was born in Ningsha County. Can't we use this to play the emotional card? Most of these overseas Chinese who have left their homeland still have feelings for their hometown. After all, the soil and water support each person." Vice Mayor He said with a look on his face.
It also gradually became cloudy.
"Our bureau has thought of this a long time ago. When Mr. Jiang came, he said he wanted to visit Ningsha County. We sent someone to take them there a few days ago. But, alas, the first two county magistrates of Ningsha County
, just to do economic work and gain political achievements, the old village and forest where Mr. Jiang lived when he was a child were bulldozed long ago and all were used for real estate. The Xiaochao River next to it was also polluted by factory wastewater. I heard that Mr. Jiang was very unhappy at the time.
I'm so happy." Director Xia said with a grimace.
"These bastards! They fail more than they accomplish!" Vice Mayor He said with anger on his face and slapped his hand hard on the coffee table, startling Director Xia.
The office fell silent for a moment.
After a long time, Vice Mayor He's mood slowly calmed down. He leaned back on the sofa and continued the topic.
"Lao Xia, if you continue to focus on Mr. Jiang's work, we will provide the most favorable policies. As for environmental issues, you tell him that our municipal party committee and government have attached great importance to them now and will improve them as soon as possible. Ningsha County will
Ranked first. Also, you told him that Ningsha County is an economically backward county, and the villagers live in poverty. Development cannot be achieved without them, the natives of their hometown. If even they give up their hometown, who else will be there?
Will it be taken seriously?"
Director Xia nodded to express his understanding.
"I will try my best to fight for it. Mr. Jiang's words are still effective in Jiang's consortium. If he can persist, I believe his son, daughter and other shareholders will not object too fiercely."
After saying that, Director Xia stood up to say goodbye, and Secretary Lin opened the door to see him out.
Vice Mayor He sighed slightly, returned to his desk, picked up the meeting minutes and read them.
＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊
At night, in a luxurious suite on the 20th floor of Tianhai Hotel, the most exclusive five-star hotel in Tianhai City, a hair-bearded flower girl
An old man with fair skin, slightly high cheekbones and crow's feet at the corners of his eyes stood in front of the window leaning on a rosewood cane, staring at the bright night view of Tianhai City with deep eyes.
He couldn't remember how many years had passed since he left this land when he was a boy, and how many times he dreamed of returning to his hometown.
"When a young boy leaves home and his elder brother returns home, his local pronunciation has not changed and his hair on his temples has faded. Children don't recognize each other when they see each other. They laugh and ask where the guests are from." The old man murmured this poem.
However, Ningsha is no longer what he remembers. The old man sighed deeply.
With a creak, the door was pushed open, and a girl with bright eyes and a graceful figure wearing a beige sweater walked in.
"Grandpa, why are you wearing so little? What should you do if you catch a cold? Dad will blame me then." The girl complained, picked up a coat from the sofa and put it on the old man.
"Grandpa, what are you looking at?" the girl asked.
"Tingting, looking from here, it's the direction of Ningsha." The old man said slowly.
"Ningsha? Didn't we go there a few days ago? What's so good about that place? It's a mess everywhere, and even the river smells stinky. I don't want to go there a second time." The girl pouted and said dissatisfiedly.
The old man shook his head and stopped talking, with a trace of helpless sadness in his eyes.
