973. The corrupt official with the most fans#
"Oh, Secretary Yang, are you here?"
Several people in the private room stood up, including Minister Wang, but he is not the official minister of the Railway Department. He took office and only after this year's Two Sessions, that is, next year, he will officially become the Minister of the Railway Department.
But now he has basically decided that the position of Minister of the Railway Department next year will be in the officialdom, so everyone is very polite to him.
It is precisely because everyone is also very polite to Yang Yuhe, because everyone knows that he will become the vice governor of Northern Province next year, and in a few years, if he does not take the wrong path, he will take over as the top leader of Northern Province.
In the private room, not only Minister Wang, but also Director Chen, the top leader of the Provincial Railway Bureau. It can be seen that he is Minister Wang's confidant, so he attended the banquet together.
The Provincial Urban Railway Bureau is one of the major key railway transportation hubs in China and one of the major key branches under the Ministry of Railways. Director Chen was promoted after Minister Wang became the deputy minister of the Ministry of Railways, so it is not an exaggeration to be considered his hard-core confidant, so it is not an exaggeration to attend the banquet.
Generally, politicians on railways do not have much intersection with local politicians. However, after all, in the future, Yang Yuhe will be in charge of the economic development of the northern province, and the provincial capital is the transportation hub of the entire northern provinces, so there will inevitably be places to deal with the railway in the future. Therefore, the main purpose of this banquet is to connect with feelings.
Moreover, there are two roles at the banquet that will become one party in the future, so it is inevitable that everyone will support each other.
What's more, Minister Wang also knows the relationship behind Secretary Yang. Of course, he is trying hard to please such officials and wants to make friends with him.
He was able to get from an ordinary railway worker to the position of deputy minister today, but was he not married to a good wife?
But his father-in-law is no longer there. Minister Wang, who is well aware of the way to promote the officialdom, knows the importance of having a good man, so he seems particularly polite now when meeting Secretary Yang.
Logically speaking, his level is half a level higher than Yang Yuhe, but he did not show off his superiors in front of Yang Yuhe. Instead, he interacted with peers, so the atmosphere in the private room became very harmonious.
The two railway tycoons didn't bring too many people, and even the secretary didn't bring them. The same was true for Yang Yuhe. In this way, Li Yifan became the youngest in the house, so he had to hand over the tea, water, wine and food, and liven up the atmosphere.
Fortunately, this guy has practiced for a long time and is very familiar with the wine table culture, so he quickly revitalized the atmosphere at the wine table in this private room.
Even Minister Wang and Director Shen looked at Secretary Yang's little nephew with some admiration. At the beginning, when they heard Yang Yuhe's introduction, they said that the young man was his nephew, and when they drove him over today, they didn't care much.
But later when Li Yifan performed this, they couldn't help but look at the young man more. This little guy is not old and has a sweet mouth. He screams like uncles and uncles, and he has great eyesight. He is a good guy.
Li Yifan was on the side, carefully serving these big shots, while he was already wandering around, remembering a series of legends about Minister Wang back then.
Ten years later, Minister Wang was dismissed due to the corruption of the high-speed rail and was finally sentenced to life. The high-speed rail he created had frequent accidents. Later, when it slowed down frequently, countless people pointed to this unlucky guy and scolded his eight generations of ancestors.
But in the future, anyone who understands the truth of some things will not see it like that, especially those who understand the history of my country's high-speed rail development will not view this person like this.
At first, Li Yifan had just graduated from college and entered society. At that time, he was still a young man and an angry young man. Every year when he went home, he encountered a ticket hard to get. When he looked at the empty high-speed train and high-speed trains, he had also scolded the Railway Department and the Minister Wang in front of him.
But when the high-speed rail became more and more popular, and more people began to enjoy the convenience brought by high-speed rail travel, and when people became more and more aware of the development history of the high-speed rail in China, people's views on Minister Wang were gradually changing.
Li Yifan, who had grown up and mature at that time, knew that he was thinking and no longer believed in the national mouthpiece media, and only then did Li Yifan truly understand the power of Minister Wang.
If the career this person has developed can be described in one word, it can really be called great, but why can't he be called a great man? It is because he has advantages and disadvantages, and he has made mistakes in money and women.
Therefore, this person cannot be called a great man, but his merits and demerits are definitely not something that our generation can tell clearly. They can only be left to future generations to comment. Of course, the premise is that the truth of the facts must be fully displayed to the people when they know it.
If you look at this person under the influence of the propaganda caliber you have been, then he will definitely be an unforgivable criminal. But if you have independent thinking ability and look back at what he has done, you will sigh at his experience. He can be considered a capable person, but not a perfect person.
This is also one of the main reasons why so many people spoke for him in the past few years after he stepped down from office, and that he became the most greedy official in China.
Although he was a lot greedy and relied on his power to play with many women, he actually did a lot of facts when he was in power. His greatest achievement can be said to be the case of high-speed rail, which was still poor in China, was created in just a few years, and it was the kind of thing that absolutely had independent intellectual property rights.
You should know that the independent intellectual property rights of this high-speed rail are, but in the decades of the founding of the country, there are only a few things that can be taken advantage of. They belong to our country and have the world's top technical content.
I remember that he was sentenced to lifelessness, and after the new leadership team came to power, the new leader was selling the high-speed rail of China, Southeast Asia, Australia, and even the United States.
The French, German, Japanese, and Canadians who originally developed things like high-speed rail could only watch us selling high-speed rails all over the world, and swallowed their saliva, but we had no choice.
The reason is very simple. The technical core of the Chinese-made high-speed rail we sell is our own. Although it is also a patent transferred by them, we digest and absorb it ourselves, and it is the new high-speed rail that we have created on their shoulders, which is even more advanced than their high-speed rail.
Before we created the high-speed rail, the world's fastest high-speed rail belonged to Japan, but the fastest speed was only 300 kilometers per hour, but the experimental design we created could reach a speed of 500 kilometers per hour.
Later, due to the conditions, the speed was set to a maximum of 350 kilometers. Even so, it was enough for the grandson to stare at him.
You should know that if we had developed some world-leading technology in the past, those foreign grandsons would have long clamored that we had copied and stole their technology.
And it is OK to sell domestically. If you sell internationally, you will definitely be attacked by those grandchildren. Today you will infringe on your rights and tomorrow you will steal their patents.
But in the high-speed rail field, we did everything we could to let them say nothing and say nothing, so we could only open our eyes, swallow our saliva, and say a few sour words.
This alone is enough to make us Chinese people proud, so for this reason, Minister Wang is a capable person.
His boldness, ability, and talent are definitely real materials, and there is no need to question this.
Think about it, the French created high-speed rail in the 1950s, followed by the Germans, and then Sweden and Canada created high-speed rail.
The Japanese even created the so-called fastest Shinkansen in the late 1970s, and what about our country?
What about the Railway Department before Minister Wang? The Railway Department has existed for decades, but the fastest speed is only 160 kilometers per hour, but no one has ever thought of going to run a high-speed railway.
Even if someone occasionally mentions that they want to run high-speed rail, then a group of experts will immediately jump out, saying that the technology is too difficult and we can't do it. Our country is big and has a weak foundation, so we can't afford to spend this money to do scientific research.
But if they spend money on food and drink, travel abroad, and having mistresses or third-children, they will have money. Once they say that they will do something practical, they will immediately lose money and no skills.
As soon as Minister Wang came on stage, he was silent and no one could understand what others thought. By the time they figured it out, our primary high-speed rail and EMU had already been put into operation...
Think about it again after he stepped down, the railway minister who took office, although the hike of the railway workers for wages won the hearts of the people, the railway department under his control had a major accident within three months, and the railway service was even more unrelated, and it went straight back to before liberation.
