In Chang Ning's view, Hu Zimao and Qian Lintao must be different, Qian Lintao is not only a fellow countryman, but also has nearly six years of contacts, and there is Mr. Chen's "matchmaking" in the middle, which is basically a matter of knowing the roots, Guan Yi is close to being a teacher and a friend, and Qian Lintao has passed the age of pursuing progress, and there is no intention of using each other in the relationship, and the two sides have no conflict of interest, so they can see each other frankly.

But after all, Hu Zimao has not been dating for a long time and has not had much contact, which makes Chang Ning more or less wary, Hu Zimao's recent performance is obviously taking the initiative to approach himself, which must be pursued, of course, the interests always have to be shared, no one can survive independently in the crowd, Hu Zimao has just turned forty, belongs to the smart dormant in the system, has been carefully wandering on the edge of various circles, now, probably made up his mind, hoping to fight, and finally pulled off the mask and made a choice of direction.

"Xiao Chang, this is my friend's newly opened restaurant, the environment is good," Hu Zimao enthusiastically pulled Chang Ning to sit down, "But Lao Qian and I still have to go to work in the afternoon, so I can't have a drink with you today." ”

Qian Lintao said with a smile: "Today, it doesn't seem to be for a drink." ”

Chang Ning is always casual, after dividing the cigarette and lighting the fire, he leaned back on the sofa and lifted Erlang's legs, "Two leaders, we are children of poor families, just have enough lunch, I came here by order, I don't know what you have to do, so the main thing I brought is my ears and eyes." ”

Hu Zimao smiled and looked at his watch, "Secretary Chang, please don't be impatient." ”

Coincidentally, there was a knock at the door.

Qian Lintao, who was sitting next to Chang Ning, said in a low voice: "The enemy of the enemy." ”

When the door opened, it was an old acquaintance who came in, Mo Guoqiang, Secretary of the Party Committee of Haimen Commune, Chang Ning was relieved, because he had a good impression of Mo Guoqiang, and the four of them were cold and noisy, and the atmosphere was more harmonious.

When everyone sat down, Hu Zimao, who was obviously the initiator, patted Chang Ning's knee, and said with a smile: "Xiao Chang, Brother Guoqiang and I have been old neighbors for many years, and we often chat together, but recently, we have always chosen a common topic, that is, you." ”

Chang Ning smiled evilly: "Two leaders, I feel flattered, because I am more interested in you than women and money." ”

Mo Guoqiang said slowly: "Secretary Xiaochang, you seem to be at the focus of the intersection of several powerful forces. ”

Qian Lintao nodded and said: "Of course, it is caused by the gambling game between Xiao Chang and Commander Yang, and the three promises that Xiao Chang obtained after winning by luck are the fundamental reasons for this competition. ”

Mo Guoqiang looked at Chang Ning and said: "At first, I also felt incomprehensible for Secretary Liu to publicly disclose your gamble, and then I understood that Secretary Liu may not be a very clever politician, their generation relies more on loyalty and enthusiasm, but he needs a reshuffle in Qingyang's political arena too much, it can be said that he is burdened with a heavy responsibility and came to Qingyang single-handedly, not many people are optimistic that he can open up the situation in Qingyang on a monolithic plate, but he did it, therefore, he wants to use the matter of Shuiyang Commune, Examine the balance of power between the two sides. ”

Chang Ning nodded, agreeing with Mo Guoqiang's analysis in his heart, Liu Shuzheng was worried that he couldn't find the flashpoint, and he happened to have a depth charge in his hand, with his usual style of acting, how could he let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, the world was in chaos, and the world could achieve great order.

Hu Zimao said with deep feelings: "Xiao Chang, you should understand Secretary Liu's strategic deployment, they are all chess pieces on the chess game like us, they are trapped in it, they can't help themselves, it seems that all roads lead to Rome, in fact, you don't have a choice, unless you jump out of the Three Realms, not in the Five Elements, everyone who has great achievements starts from making chess pieces." ”

Chang Ning said with a smile: "Secretary Mo, Section Chief Hu, I am still a newcomer, and I don't know anything about the depth of the water in the county party committee compound. ”

Hu Zimao said: "Our cadre structure in Qingyang is mainly divided into several parts, the first part is the southbound faction headed by Secretary Liu, the liberators of Qingyang County back then, all the liberation cards, the number is not large, but basically occupies all the important positions, of course, including a small number of followers in the local area, they may be the purest revolutionaries, full of blood, unlimited loyalty, but few politicians have the skill and cultivation, in the long years of decades, it has always been difficult to fully control Qingyang, so that the sacrifice of sacrifice, The transfer of the transfer, and later even the leading figure Liu Weiming was squeezed into Qingzhou, then, the object of their defeat is the second part I want to say, the land reform faction, they grew up at the beginning of the founding of the republic, in addition to the southward faction that led them, there are also our Qingyang locals, the old comrades who participated in the revolution before the liberation, these old comrades are fewer in number but more powerful, they are all locals, it is easier to come together, the biggest characteristic of this part of the cadres is that they are numerous, the tree is not high and the roots are deep, and they have become an important backbone of various departments and district communities. They are not leaders, but they are the real mainstream of Qingyang politics......"

"This third part, that is, for decades, the comrades transferred and assigned from outside Qingyang, in view of the fact that Qingyang's localism is too strong and too deep, the superiors deliberately increase the exchange of cadres in Qingyang and other counties and cities, but although they have accumulated a lot of people, it has always been difficult to pinch into a whole, either only seeking self-preservation, or assimilation into the customs, and has never been able to exert its due influence, Wang Yuwen, the county magistrate, is the best example, as the county magistrate, but he can't grasp the power of the Finance Bureau."

"The fourth part is the cadres who came out of the army, the army is really a melting pot of cadres, like Minister Sun, Cai Zhengxiang and Luo Tiegui, etc., they are a force to be reckoned with in Qingyang's political arena, but there is no strong leader for the time being...... There are also some locals who should have grown up in the late fifties, such as Chen Lin of Hongqi Commune and Xiao Guoying of Sanshu Commune, who have relatively high cultural quality, but unfortunately their roots are too shallow to enter the mainstream world for the time being. ”

"Lao Hu, you are worthy of being a person in the organization department," Mo Guoqiang praised it, and said to Chang Ning with a smile:

"After the reform and opening up, the number of members of the Standing Committee of the Qingyang County Party Committee was fixed at 11 people, and the current situation, Secretary Liu and County Magistrate Wang seem to be united, including the Minister of Armed Forces Sun Mingcai and the Director of the Public Security Bureau Hong Tao, the two of them have a common characteristic, they are both demobilized cadres in the army, Lao Hu said that the iron plate, is a group of people with Secretary Fang Tianzhengfu as the leading figure, their source can be traced back to the land reform faction, a total of six Standing Committee members, more than half of the absolute number, it is conceivable that when they gritted their teeth, they said in unison, When opposing your appointment, how powerful it is, Secretary Liu, as the number one, can't always use the ultimate veto power in his hands. ”

Chang Ning spread his hands and said with a smile: "Then what are you fighting for, they must win." ”

"However, things often take an unexpected turn," Qian Lintao said with a smile, "Physically, the strongest iron plate actually has seams." ”
