The pursuit of a position in officialdom

"Yeah, I've been like this recently. The leaders below don't want to run projects on their own, but instead they reach out to the province to ask for projects. I'll give them a wake-up call at the next meeting." Chen Yimin also said angrily.

"Old Chen, we are angry and want to discuss where this project will eventually be located. Only in this way can we go to the ministries and commissions to ask for the project. Where do you think it is more suitable to build this project?" Lu Donghui said.

"Bianzhou, Nandu and Fengzhou are all good. Bianzhou is the provincial capital city with convenient transportation; Nandu City is rich in resources; Fengzhou City has a superior geographical location. It is up to you, Secretary Lu, to decide where to locate it." Chen Yimin is from Fengzhou. He started his career in Fengzhou and has deep feelings for Fengzhou, so he wants to keep this project in Fengzhou. But he also understood that there was a gap between Fengzhou and Bianzhou and Nandu.

"These places you mentioned are all good. You see, Nandu City has submitted all the reporting materials for the steel project. This is also a preparation. The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh. It is really not good to give it to anyone but not to others. However, as provincial leaders, we must consider the overall and long-term development of Huayuan Province to ensure that the layout of the steel project is reasonable. Since this project is Comrade Xiao Li’s idea, Secretary Zhenghai, please arrange for someone to ask this guy what he thinks. , maybe there will be unexpected results." Lu Donghui also made a temporary move.

"Okay, Secretary Lu, I guess this kid will have a big headache now, so let's give him another headache." After Secretary-General Su Zhenghai said this, Lu Donghui and Chen Yimin both laughed.

After receiving a call from Secretary-General Su Zhenghai, Li Wujiang ran over at a trot.

"Secretary-General, I'm here to report." Li Wujiang was not so reserved now when he saw Su Zhenghai, he was very relaxed.

"Sit down, kid. How are you doing lately? I heard you're living a pretty comfortable life."

"Secretary-General, who did you listen to? I'm going to go find him to reason. They don't even look at what kind of life I've been living recently. My hair has turned a lot gray."

When Su Zhenghai saw Li Wujiang pretending to be here, he also made fun of him, "You are the Monkey King. He has gray hair. If you pull it out, it will grow again."

Li Wujiang opened his mouth and didn't know what to say. Su Zhenghai continued, "This is your idea to attract investment in steel projects. Now the provincial party committee and the provincial government are being bossed around by you. What should we do next? You have to advise the provincial party committee."

Chapter 70 The Eight Immortals cross the sea, each showing his magical powers

Hearing Su Zhenghai slap such a big label on himself, Li Wujiang knew clearly that the leader was joking on him, so he quickly explained, "Secretary-General, I am dedicated to making suggestions for the century-old development of Huayuan Province. Whatever the leader asks me to do, I will do it." What, if the leadership doesn’t let me do it, I won’t do it. If the provincial leaders think it’s difficult, we can’t compete.”

Li Wujiang counterattacked Su Zhenghai's army and stunned Su Zhenghai. However, a leader is a leader and he quickly came to his senses. Su Zhenghai deliberately said seriously, "You kid, you're still kidding me. I'm throwing water." , can you take it back? What do you think of the provincial party committee and the provincial government? Since you are the one who took the lead, you still have to continue to work for me. If you don’t do it well, you can just pat your butt and leave as soon as possible. "

Li Wujiang also knew that Su Zhenghai was deliberately keeping a straight face, but he still wanted to follow the leader's wishes, so he said, "I will resolutely implement the instructions of the provincial party committee leaders. I will continue to work hard for the steel project."

"It's good to have this attitude. Since you want to attract steel projects, have you chosen where to invest and build factories?"

Li Wujiang knew that the meat show was coming, and this was the key point that the leader wanted to ask. "I resolutely obey the orders of my leaders. Wherever the leaders decide to build, I will fight for the project accordingly."

Li Wujiang did Tai Chi again, and decided by saying this that he was not offending anyone.

"You boy, I ask you to say what you say, don't make me official. There are three prefecture-level cities, Bianzhou, Nandu, and Fengzhou, that are applying now. What do you think about this?"

Li Wujiang knew as soon as he heard that each of these three places had leadership support, which caused the provincial party committee to hesitate. Li Wujiang didn't want to offend anyone, so he said, "Secretary-General, each of these three places has its own advantages and potential. However, our Huayuan Province has not yet attracted this project. Now we are fighting for it here." It doesn’t make sense. It’s better for us to formulate plans and win projects based on the different characteristics of these three cities, and let investors choose. No matter where the final choice is, it will be in Huayuan Province.”

After Li Wujiang finished speaking, Su Zhenghai would smile heartily and say that Li Wujiang was a slippery man. However, this is still a good idea. In the end, it will be up to these three cities to show their talents.

Lu Donghui, Secretary of the Huayuan Provincial Party Committee, personally led a team to the capital to carry out investment promotion activities. Li Wujiang accompanied him throughout the whole process.

Bai Xiaomei, director of the Beijing Office, was very happy. The presence of leaders created opportunities for her to get in touch with them. Bai Xiaomei received Li Wujiang very warmly, making Li Wujiang a little embarrassed.

Lu Donghui personally went to the planning committee and other departments to report on the work. Lu Donghui is already a ministerial-level official, so no matter which department he goes to, the leaders of each department will pay great attention to him and receive him personally.

"Lao Lu, you and I are also old comrades-in-arms. Now that we have become high-ranking officials, we don't often come back to Beijing to visit." Director Liang Zhanhai of the planning committee said.

"Old Liang, it's difficult for me too. You also know the situation in Huayuan. It has been more than ten years since the reform and opening up, but Huayuan's economic development is still lagging behind and people's lives are still poor. As the secretary of the provincial party committee, I am worried about my work. If I didn’t do a good job, I would have the nerve to report to you.” No one expected that a senior official would also cry when he arrived in the capital.

Director Liang saw Lv Donghui like this and quickly asked him to drink some tea.

The two chatted for a while, and Lv Donghui got to the point. "Old Liang, I heard that the Commission is going to plan a steel project recently. You also know that Huayuan is in trouble. Can the Commission consider Huayuan Province?"

"Old Lu, you are well-informed. The Commission does have this intention, but there are many competing provinces now. You also know that our country is in a state of disrepair and it is impossible to invest so much money in many projects at once, and coastal cities have great transportation advantages and consumer markets." It seems that Director Liang and Secretary Lu are also old acquaintances, and they talk about anything.

"Old Liang, I also know that Huayuan Province does not have obvious advantages compared to other provinces, but Huayuan Province needs this project more. Huayuan Province needs this project to boost the spirit of the whole province. Huayuan Province will also provide high-quality services for this project and escort this project."

Lv Donghui said very sincerely, and Liang Zhanhai was also very moved. Finally, he expressed his willingness to provide Huayuan Province with this competition qualification, and the steel project will be determined through the competitive selection method. So in the end, it still depends on whether Huayuan Province can show any substantial sincerity to attract Kyoto Group to invest in Huayuan Province.

Lv Donghui has achieved his goal by getting Liang Zhanhai's promise today. Work is done step by step, and it is impossible to eat a fat man in one bite.

Next, Lv Donghui personally led the Huayuan investment promotion team to visit and inspect Kyoto Group and other units. These large central enterprises were very enthusiastic to attract a local provincial party secretary to visit, and they had a good chat. They agreed to visit Huayuan for investment.

Li Wujiang has not been idle these days. He used these days to visit Fang Shuxin's grandfather in person. The old man was also very happy that Li Wujiang could visit him. After Li Wujiang's suggestion some time ago, the old man decisively chose to follow the senior leaders. This path is the right choice. His eldest son Fang Zhihua has become the commander of a large military region, and his second son Fang Zhiguo, Fang Shuxin's father, has also been transferred to Xishan Province as governor and has become a senior official. So I didn't see Fang Zhiguo this time.

"Little Li, what have you been busy with recently?" asked the old man.

"Old man, I've been busy with attracting investment recently. I came to Beijing this time just to attract some investment." Li Wujiang said matter-of-factly.

"Oh, you're a good kid. Developing the economy is good. It can drive local development and help the people get rid of poverty and become rich as soon as possible."

"Yes, Huayuan Province is too backward. Only by introducing large projects as soon as possible can Huayuan restore economic vitality and promote the development of various industries. This time we came to Huayuan mainly to introduce a steel project. The steel industry is large in scale, has a wide range of radiation, drives many industries, and provides many jobs. It plays a major role in the development of a place." Seeing that the old man didn't ask, Li Wujiang said directly that he came this time to ask the old man for help.

"Well, Xiao Li, have you published any masterpieces recently? Let the old man read them too."

Li Wujiang was a little embarrassed. Seeing that the old man did not pick up his words, he did not continue to say, "Old man, my masterpiece is not a masterpiece. It is just a random thought in my spare time. Recently, I am mainly busy attracting investment and have not considered other things."

"Young man, being pragmatic and hardworking is the right thing to do. Do more things for the people and make some profits. The people will remember you for the rest of their lives."

"Yes, you are right."

The old man changed the subject and asked, "How are you and Shu Xin recently?"

Li Wujiang felt a little embarrassed when the old man asked about himself and Fang Shuxin, and said with a stiff upper lip, "Everything is fine."

"Shu Xin is a good boy, you have to treat him well."

Chapter 71 Bai Xiaomei's meeting, a turning point for big things

After that, he lay down on the rocking chair and closed his eyes. Li Wujiang knew that the old man was tired, so he took the initiative to say hello and left.

Fang Shuxin's mother Li Kaili now looks at Li Wujiang differently. Fang Zhiguo used to be a vice minister. Although he was at the ministerial level, it was very difficult to cross over to a real position. With the help of Li Wujiang, he was promoted to a local official this time. So he was very enthusiastic about Li Wujiang. He insisted on keeping Li Wujiang at home for dinner. Li Wujiang was still not used to such a big family, so he declined because he had other work.

"How did you talk to grandpa?" Fang Shuxin asked.

Li Wujiang shook his head. The old man didn't say anything, and he didn't know what he meant.

"Forget about him, we just do our best. Many things are not something we can decide," Li Wujiang said.

Fang Shuxin saw that Li Wujiang was a little lonely, so she took the initiative to hug him. This hug aroused Li Wujiang's desire, and he kissed Fang Shuxin, stroking her soft body with both hands, all the way up. Fang Shuxin is not honest now, and she took the initiative to stretch her hands on Li Wujiang's body and touch him randomly. Li Wujiang couldn't bear it, so he pushed Fang Shuxin on the bed, stripped her clothes, and the two began to have sex.

Li Wujiang personally called Minister Huang and Director Li Shengli of the Propaganda Department to say hello when he came to Beijing. When the two knew he was in Beijing, they warmly invited him to sit in the department.

Li Wujiang also climbed the pole, and he came when the leader asked him to come.

When he arrived at the Propaganda Department, Li Wujiang first visited Minister Huang, who received him warmly.

"Comrade Wujiang, what big event is this time in Beijing?" Minister Huang joked. Li Wujiang helped him a lot in the Propaganda Department, so he had a very good impression of him.

"Minister Huang, you are kidding me. I accompanied the leaders of Huayuan Province to Beijing to ask for projects. You also know that Huayuan is relatively backward. The provincial party committee leaders are anxious, so they came to the ministry to beg for alms."

"As for you, a young comrade, it is not easy for every province across the country now. Tell me the situation in Huayuan in detail."

Li Wujiang was a little surprised that Minister Huang was willing to take the initiative to listen to the situation in Huayuan. In fact, in the ministry, people generally think that their level is high and are unwilling to talk to local officials.

Since the leader is willing to listen, Li Wujiang told Minister Huang about the situation in Huayuan in detail.

"Wujiang, it is not easy for local comrades, and the grassroots is also a place to train people. I believe Huayuan will get better and better."

"That is the strong support of the leaders. Only when the leaders pay more attention and support, Huayuan will have more development potential."

After Li Wujiang came out of Minister Huang's room, he went to Li Shengli's office again. Li Shengli took the initiative to tell Li Wujiang some ways to visit leaders at all levels in Beijing, which made Li Wujiang very useful. I wanted to chat for a while. Li Wujiang's phone rang. Seeing that it was a call from Beijing, Li Wujiang said sorry to Li Shengli and answered the call.

He only heard the voice on the phone ask "Is this Comrade Li Wujiang? I am Li Weiguo."

Li Wujiang was stunned. Who is this person? Suddenly he remembered that this was the secretary of Vice Premier Yan. He immediately said respectfully, "Director Li, I am Li Wujiang."

"Does your Huayuan Province have a steel investment attraction project in Beijing recently?"

"Yes, Director Li."

"Well, you send me a copy of the relevant materials now." After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Li Shengli saw that Li Wujiang was so respectful, and knew that the other party was not small. Li Wujiang knew that he could not delay with Li Shengli. So he said to Li Shengli, "Secretary Li Weiguo asked me to report to him. Sorry, Director Li, I will report to you another day."

Li Shengli is a smart man. When he heard Li Weiguo, he knew that it was a senior leader looking for Li Wujiang. He really envied Li Wujiang. He entered the leader's sight at a young age. He couldn't help but make progress. Said "Hurry up and get busy, we will have a chance to get together."

Li Wujiang hurried out to say hello to Dong Yueyue and the others, and then left in a hurry.

Li Wujiang really didn't have any information on hand, and the materials were all in the Beijing Office. In order not to waste time, he called Bai Xiaomei and asked her to arrange a car to send the relevant materials to the central government office, and he would wait there.

On the way, Li Wujiang was wondering who greeted Vice President Yan. In the end, Li Wujiang thought there was only one person, that is, Mr. Fang. Although the old man didn't speak or promise, he really did things for Li Wujiang. Li Wujiang was ashamed that the old man was so old, and he still bothered him.

When Bai Xiaomei heard that it was the location of the senior leaders, she immediately woke up, found the materials, and drove over in person.

"Director Bai, why did you come here in person? You can just arrange someone to deliver it." Li Wujiang also expressed his deep gratitude to Bai Xiaomei for coming here in person.

"Wujiang, as a sister, I must personally handle the matters you arranged." Li Wujiang is now a popular figure around the provincial leaders, so it is better for me to make good friends with them.

"Well, thank you very much, Sister Bai. The leader is still waiting for me to report my work. Let's talk later."

Bai Xiaomei knew that Li Wujiang's matter was urgent, so she asked him to go in and report his work.

After Li Wujiang arrived, he waited for a while before Li Weiguo came out to see him.

Li Weiguo took the initiative to say, "Comrade Wujiang, there are many things in the office, and I have kept you waiting for a long time."

"It's okay, Director Li."

"Have you brought the materials I asked you to prepare?"

Li Wujiang handed over the materials. Li Weiguo asked Li Wujiang to tell him about the project in detail. As a secretary of a leader, you must understand the whole situation in advance, so that you can report clearly when the leader asks.

After Li Wujiang finished his report, Li Weiguo said, "Okay, I will report this situation to the leader."

Li Wujiang knew that his task was completed, so he took the initiative to leave. Li Weiguo did not keep him. As a secretary of a leader, you have no time for yourself at all, and you are always waiting for the leader's instructions.

"Sister Bai, why haven't you left yet?"

"I don't have anything to do, I'll wait for you here."

"Sister Bai, you're so kind to me. I don't know how to repay you." Li Wujiang said with a smile.
