Chapter 4 Causes

"Director, are you looking for me?"

With a nervous mood, Lin Chendui cautiously knocked on the door of Director Wu's office.

Director Wu's name is Wu Wenjun, deputy secretary-general of the municipal government and director of the office, and he is also Lin Chendui's out-and-out "big boss", but a small clerk like Lin Chendui rarely has the opportunity to get in touch. Unexpectedly, just after going to work in the afternoon, he received a call from Chen Tiande, saying that Director Wu wanted to see him and asked him to go immediately.

Lin Chendui was stunned at the time, but then he relaxed as if he had unloaded a heavy burden. He knew that after a morning of confusion, the time had finally come to reveal the mystery.

Putting down the phone, breathing a sigh of relief, and tidying up her appearance, Lin Chenwan stood up and walked out calmly amid the gaze of many attentions. When he walked out of the door, he vaguely heard Xiao Cheng talking sourly there.

"Ah, Xiao Lin is here, sit, sit down!" When he entered the door, Wu Wenjun was in a hurry, he didn't know what was written, he looked up and saw that it was Lin Chendu, and greeted him very cordially. He is only in his 40s, but his head is already half-bald, making him look much older than he really is.

Lin Chenwan was a little confused by Director Wu's enthusiasm, but the more this happened, the more careful he became, cautiously half-sitting opposite Wu Wenjun, his eyes slightly lowered, quietly waiting for the leader's instructions, but his heartbeat involuntarily accelerated.

Wu Wenjun put down the pen in his hand, picked up the teacup and moistened his throat, then raised his head and asked casually: "Xiaolin, I heard that you had a car accident some time ago?" ”

Lin Chendui chuckled in his heart when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Director Wu, I'm really sorry, I blame myself for being careless and delaying my work......"

Perhaps seeing his panic, Wu Wenjun said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, I've heard everything about you." ”

"I heard?" Lin Chenwan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. No one has ever told me about being hit by a car because of saving people, and who did Director Wu listen to? Could it be that he knew that girl? Thinking of this, his mind suddenly flashed with that delicate and beautiful face, and his eyes suddenly became blazing. But soon, Lin Chenwan realized his gaffe again, and quickly gathered his mood and sat upright.

Wu Wenjun hesitated for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Xiaolin, although you have only been working in our office for more than a year, your work performance is generally good, especially the written materials, which are very good, and several reports are very constructive, which makes the leaders very satisfied......

Hearing this, Lin Chendui's originally slightly calmed mood suddenly couldn't help but stir. Of course, he knew what the weight of these words of praise came out of the mouth of the deputy secretary general of the municipal government and the director of the office, but when he glanced at Director Wu, his heart was slightly cold: he did not see real appreciation in Director Wu's eyes, but faintly felt a kind of vigilance, even a taste of rejection.

What is the purpose of Director Wu looking for himself? Lin Chendu's eyebrows furrowed slightly, but he replied quietly: "Actually, I didn't do anything, but under the leadership of the director, I tried my best to do my part well......

Wu Wenjun glanced at Lin Chenwan deeply, his brows rose slightly, the wrinkles on his face slowly unfolded, his smile became brighter, and he patted Lin Chendu's shoulder and said, "Hehe, Xiaolin, modesty is a virtue, but if you are too modest, it is pride." Speaking of this, he paused slightly, and then said earnestly: "Xiaolin, you are about to serve as Mayor Yang's secretary, this is the trust of the organization and the leadership of you, and it is also a test, I hope you will guard against arrogance and rashness in your future work, and serve the leader well......

"What, to be Mayor Yang's secretary?" Before Wu Wenjun finished speaking, Lin Chendu's mouth was wide open, and he didn't close it for a long time, only to feel that a stream of blood suddenly rushed straight to his brain, and with a "hum" sound, he didn't know anything. I don't know how long it took for my heart to be overwhelmed by the surging excitement and incomparable excitement.

Don't look like they're all secretaries, but there's a world of difference between the two. Once he becomes the secretary of the city leader, it is tantamount to a carp jumping over the dragon gate, and his status will immediately undergo earth-shaking changes. That was something that all the members of their Secretariat could only dream of. What's more, Mayor Yang is not an ordinary mayor, but the mayor of Dongping City.

Although Mayor Yang has not been in office for a long time, the rumors about him have long been spread in the organs, and everyone knows about him.

After the former mayor Dai Qingguang was transferred out due to some problems, in order to compete for this position, it can be said that the eight immortals from the province to the city have crossed the sea to show their magical powers, among which the highest voice is Liu Yunqiang, executive vice mayor of Dongping, and the other is Chen Zhenxiang, deputy secretary of Weizhou City in charge of the party and the masses. The qualifications and forces behind the two people are equal, and they can be described as chess opponents, and the competition is extremely hot. But Yang Weiguo's birth surprised everyone who paid attention to this matter.

Before that, no one knew who this Yang Weiguo was, and it wasn't until the day before the results were officially announced that some well-informed people vaguely knew that Yang Weiguo, who had come out halfway and took the throne of the mayor of Dongping City, was parachuted down from a certain central ministry and commission, and even the province had not heard the slightest rumor before, which shows that this person's origin is extraordinary.

Later, everyone gradually learned that before Yang Weiguo entered Beijing, he also served as the deputy mayor in charge of industry and investment promotion in a coastal city, and his work was known for being tough and resolute, bold and bold, daring to say and do, and he did things without recognition from his six relatives, and he did not give anyone affection, and even the secretary and mayor had a great headache for him. During his tenure of office, he made brilliant achievements, led more than 100 state-owned enterprises in bankruptcy, closure and transformation, and sent dozens of state-owned enterprise leaders to prison. Many people hated him to the core, and it was said that the letters sent to the central government to report him could be filled with a train wagon, and the charges were all kinds of crimes, and there were even cases of people buying murderers to kill him. But at the same time, the annual economic growth rate of this prefecture-level city has always remained in double digits, and the vast majority of state-owned enterprises have been reborn after reform. Both the masses and cadres in the local area have mixed reputations when they talk about his coming.

After such a legendary figure has been dormant in the central ministries and commissions for two years, how much waves will he make when he is sent to Dongping City this time?

And in private, Lin Chenwan has also heard a saying, that is, those who come are not good, and those who are good do not come. The reason why the central government sent Mayor Yang to Dongping was because he was very dissatisfied with the paternalistic work style of Lu Qingdong, secretary of the Dongping City Party Committee.

This statement is not groundless. If Yang Weiguo is a fierce dragon, then Lu Qingdong is an out-and-out snake.

Lu Qingdong, who is 57 years old this year, has started his career step by step from the grassroots level, and has served as secretary of the municipal party committee in Dongping for seven years. It can be said that in Dongping, almost half of the officials were single-handedly drawn by him, and the intertwined roots beat the entire Dongping like an iron bucket, and the needle could not be inserted or water could be splashed. Maybe it's because he has no desire to be rigid, or maybe he has poured too much effort into Dongping and is unwilling to let others destroy it, Lu Qingdong is extremely stubborn, and it is rare to listen to other people's opinions, and even unceremoniously interfer with the work of the city government. In this case, the mayor is basically overshadowed by him, and it is difficult to do anything. In the past seven years, two mayors have taken the initiative to apply for transfer, and two mayors have been involved in a fight and have to leave the scene, one of which is still in a black prison.

Lin Chenwei also imagined what kind of earth-shattering scene would be when Yang Weiguo and Lu Qingdong fought? But he never dreamed that one day he could become Yang Weiguo's secretary. No wonder Chen Tiande's attitude towards himself has changed 180 degrees today, no wonder the colleagues in the office look at him a little strangely, they must have heard something a long time ago.

Lin Chendui's heart suddenly rose with a sense of pleasure, but soon, he suffered from gains and losses.

Is this possible? You know, generally speaking, even if the new mayor does not bring a secretary, he has to be selected from the secretary department of the city government, and first of all, those who are old, experienced and capable, most of them will be around 30 years old. After all, being older also means being steady. But he has only been in the agency for more than a year, and his work on weekdays is not outstanding, so how can he get into Mayor Yang's eyes? Besides, if Mayor Yang can't fight Secretary Lu, who has hidden needles in the cotton, and repeats the mistakes of his predecessor again, his future may be bleak and he will stop.

For a while, he only felt that his thoughts were chaotic, and all the threads were mixed together, and he couldn't figure out his thoughts, as if his head was about to explode.

Wu Wenjun, who had been observing Lin Chendui, couldn't help muttering in his heart when he saw this, it seemed that this Xiao Lin didn't seem to know about this before, but how could Mayor Yang, who had just arrived, know that he was such a small person?

To tell the truth, even as a supervisor and leader, I don't know much about Lin Chendui's subordinate, at best, I know that there is such a high-achieving student who graduated from Hwacheon University in the second secretary department and writes good articles. It's no wonder that as the director of the municipal government office, he has too many things to pay attention to and worry about all day long, especially after the personnel changes have occurred above, he is even more trembling, where can he have the leisure to pay attention to such a little-known little clerk? If it weren't for Mayor Yang euphemistically mentioning it, he wouldn't have known that this Lin Chenwan actually had such a great ability, and he would have taken Mayor Yang's line quietly.

Seeing that he didn't seem to know much about Lin Chendu's situation, although Mayor Yang didn't say anything, the thoughtful Wu Wenjun saw a little disappointment and dissatisfaction in Mayor Yang's eyes, which couldn't help but make him panic, and even his vest was sweaty.

Now this position seems to be beautiful, but Wu Wenjun can't say it.

Wu Wenjun, deputy secretary general of the municipal government and director of the office, was single-handedly promoted by Dai Qingguang, the former mayor. Originally, he also wanted to make some achievements in this position, manage this big stall for the mayor, and did not hesitate to fight the secretary general promoted by Secretary Lu for this reason. Unexpectedly, when he was working hard, two months ago, one of the key projects in Dongping City, the newly built Jihe Highway Bridge, which had been opened to traffic for less than half a year, suddenly collapsed, causing a major safety accident in which 26 people were killed and 178 injured, which shocked the whole country, and even the central leaders called the provincial leaders. Guo Songbai, secretary of the provincial party committee, was also furious at the Standing Committee, and even slapped the table, demanding that Dongping City immediately control the relevant responsible persons, and sent a joint investigation team composed of discipline inspection commissions, public security, supervision, and other relevant departments to find out the reasons and give an explanation to the masses.

For a time, people in Dongping City were panicked.

Liu Huaisong, the person in charge of the Zhenghong Construction Company that undertook the construction of the Jihe Highway Bridge, absconded with the money as soon as he got the news, but the investigation team received anonymous materials reporting that Dai Qingguang, the mayor of Dongping City, had engaged in favoritism and fraud in the bidding work of the Jihe Bridge, accepted huge bribes from the Zhenghong Construction Company, and used his power to interfere with the bidding work. In order to save costs, the contractor made inferior materials and cut corners in the construction process, and the supervision company and the quality inspection department were also forced to turn a blind eye and give the green light under the coercion of Dai Qingguang, which was the root cause of this major safety accident.

Although there was no evidence of Dai Qingguang's bribery in the end, Dai Qingguang and Liu Huaisong of Zhenghong Company were once classmates and had a very good personal relationship, but it is an indisputable fact. Regardless of whether there is anything greasy in it, until now, Dai Qingguang cannot continue to work in Dongping, so he can only be transferred gloomily and go to a Qingshui Yamen in the province to retire in advance.

Dai Qingguang left, but Wu Wenjun was dumbfounded.

The so-called son of heaven and a courtier, no matter who will be the mayor, will not let such an important position wander out of his control. There may be other constraints from Secretary Lu, but in the one-acre and three-point land of the city government, the authority of the mayor cannot be shaken. Even if Mayor Yang is new to the city and doesn't have the energy to adjust this area for the time being, it is only a matter of time before he thinks about it.

In other words, if you want to keep your current position, there is no other way but to throw yourself to Mayor Yang, but will Mayor Yang accept and trust him?

But at this point, Wu Wenjun had no choice. In order to get to the top, he had already offended Secretary Lu, and now if Mayor Yang can't tolerate himself anymore, then he has only a dead end.

Therefore, after Mayor Yang arrived, Wu Wenjun was always cautious, on the one hand, he tried to find an opportunity to get to Mayor Yang's side, and on the other hand, he was afraid of doing something wrong. In his mind, Mayor Yang was new to the city and was not very familiar with the situation in Dongping City, so he should need an experienced and familiar secretary, so that he would not be blind and ride a blind horse. Unexpectedly, Mayor Yang would play his cards so unreasonably, and he fell in love with Lin Chendu, a newcomer who didn't understand anything.

It's hard to guess! Director Wu was quite emotional.

But emotion is emotion, work has to be done. After coming out of Mayor Yang's office, he hurriedly made amends, first of all, he asked Chen Tiande to understand the background of Lin Chendu's situation, hoping to find out some clues from it. But after seeing it, it was a big disappointment. Lin Chendui's background is very simple, he can't see anything unusual at all, and he has never been to the capital, let alone the city where Mayor Yang once served, so it stands to reason that he should have no intersection with Mayor Yang?

But the more this is the case, the more Wu Wenjun does not dare to slack off. Anyway, since Mayor Yang mentioned Lin Chendui, he is also happy to send a favor.

At first, his mind was always chaotic, but it didn't take long for Lin Chenwan to gradually wake up from his excitement and excitement, and he wanted to respond, but he didn't have much confidence in his heart, and said in a bit of a panic: "No, director, I haven't done it, I won't do anything, in case it ......"

Wu Wenjun put down the teacup with a smile, calmly took out two cigarettes from the cigarette case, threw one to Lin Chendu, and then picked up the other one and lit the fire, took two deep breaths, looked at Lin Chenwan with a solemn expression and said: "Xiaolin, don't be presumptuous, everyone has a first time, and you can learn if you have no experience." You must know that Mayor Yang personally named you to be his secretary, which is an opportunity that others can't think of, and you should cherish it. Don't worry to do it boldly, if there is anything you don't understand, you can come and ask me......"
