Chapter 461 Three Steps (Part 1)

Xia wanted to know that the people in the Organization Department have always been overly arrogant, so he didn't feel disgusted with his face. He quickly said, "I'll look for Mei Shengping."

The middle-aged man's face changed and he said angrily: "You call Minister Mei's name casually? What's your name? Which department is from? I don't know any politeness. I want to complain to your director."

I guess he was looking at Xia Xiang’s youth, so he must be no longer at all. He just needs a director to take care of him.

Xia Xiang didn't want to be as good as him, but when he saw his anxious and white face, he suddenly felt it was fun. He thought that Mei Shengping had always been overly arrogant, and his subordinates were as arrogant as he learned. The Organization Department and the Organization Department are indeed the first in the world. Anyone thinks they are so arrogant.

He smiled and said, "I am the director. If you want to complain to me, it's almost the same to find our team leader."

The middle-aged man was stunned and said in disbelief: "Brave in the Organization Department, do you still want to be promoted in the future? Team leader? Who is your team leader?"

Before Xia Xiang could speak, he heard a familiar voice sound: "Long time no see, I thought you have made great progress, but I didn't expect that I was still idle and had nothing to do to play with, which is really disappointing."

It's Mei Xiaolin.

Mei Xiaolin is wearing a blue dress, without makeup, and has a plain face. She is simple but has a simple beauty, which makes people feel indescribable and comfortable, as if the long-lost innocence is coming to her face.

Xia Xiang felt a moment of loss of consciousness.

Mei Xiaolin came to Xia Xiang quietly and said lukewarmly: "What are you here to do?" Then she turned her head and looked at the middle-aged man, "He is Xia Xiang, and he is indeed a director."

When the middle-aged man heard Xia Xiang's name, his face changed drastically and he whispered: "It's the Xia Xiang who had a big fight with Minister Feng? Why didn't he say it earlier? Why would I mess with you if I said it earlier? Isn't he looking for trouble?" After that, he turned around and left without saying a word.

Xia Xiang couldn't help but feel embarrassed. Last time, he just argued with Fengli. Why did it spread? It turned out to be a big quarrel? It was really public opinion that Fengli deliberately destroyed his reputation.

Xia Xiangcai didn't take it seriously, looked at Mei Xiaolin a few times, and whispered: "I just said, it would be better for us to retreat to our pure state before. Look at the current situation, there are so many barriers and distances, and there is no tacit understanding at all."

Mei Xiaolin's face could no longer be tense and she smiled: "Who is separated from you? You and I have never been close, so where is the distance? We have always been neither far nor close, are you too concerned?"

"Yes, yes, I'm too careful. As long as you don't think anything, I'm even better." Xia Xiang laughed and asked, "Have you completed the procedures? When will I go back to the capital?"

"Just in the past few days... I haven't thanked you for helping me transfer to the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League! There's no time now. When you arrive in the capital in the future, I'll invite you to dinner." Mei Xiaolin was not embarrassed at all, as if nothing happened between her and Xia Xiang, "You have something to do with me to come and find my uncle?"

"Actually, it depends on you. I want to ask you why you are in a hurry to go back to the capital?" Xia Xiang was actually curious about Mei Xiaolin's motivation.

"I have already said it, I don't want to say it anymore. Besides, it doesn't matter to you. Asking too much will make it bad." Mei Xiaolin didn't give Xia Xiang's face and directly took it back.

"Let's forget it." Xia Xiang didn't force him. He understood Mei Xiaolin's temper and said, "Do you have time at noon, so have a meal together?"

"I don't have time, I have to go to the municipal party committee."

"It just so happens that I have something to do to go to the municipal party committee, and go together."

"I'm not right, I'm different from you."

It was still a bit strange, Xia Xiang couldn't help but suspect that Mei Xiaolin was deliberately escaping. After some things happened between men and women, it was impossible to pretend that nothing had happened. She still deliberately avoided herself.

"It's okay, I won't force you. Let's go see Minister Mei first, is it convenient?"

Mei Xiaolin had nothing to say, so she had to lead the way and came to Mei Shengping's office.

Mei Shengping works on the second floor. The office is not large, sunny, the layout is not luxurious, and the tones are dark, which contrasts sharply with the light tones of Cui Xiang's office.

Mei Shengping saw Xia Xiang appear unexpectedly and couldn't help but smile: "This is the first time you have come to my office. Should you come to see me or Xiaolin?"

"Look at it all." Xia Xiang actually likes Mei Shengping's personality very much. He feels that he is sometimes better than Wu Caijiang. "Minister Mei, Xiaolin is leaving, I want to treat her to a meal, but she refuses. Do you think she has any objections to me? I have not offended her either."

Mei Xiaolin glared at Xia Xiang: "I'm talking nonsense and I'm still complaining to me in front of my uncle. You're getting lower and lower. Okay, stop talking too much. Before I go back to the capital, I will give you a chance to treat you to a meal."

Xia Xiang laughed: "Minister Mei, I am nostalgic. I have always felt that I had a happy cooperation with Mayor Mei in An County and treated her as a good friend. I also hope that after she arrives in the capital, she will make new friends and never forget old friends."

Mei Shengping looked at Xia Xiang, then looked at Mei Xiaolin, and said thoughtfully: "Xiao Xia's performance is normal, Xiaolin has some problems..."

Xia Xiang did not wait for Mei Shengping to investigate the matter in depth, so he quickly changed the topic: "Minister Mei and Secretary Cui nominated Zheng Guanqun as Deputy Minister of the Standing Committee of the Propaganda Department. What do you think?"

"I have read Zheng Guanqun's resume. He has enough qualifications, but he is the person nominated by Cui Xiang..." Mei Shengping glanced at Xia Xiang and smiled, "What do you mean? Just say it directly. Anyway, there is no interest in me, so everyone is mentioned. The key is that Secretary Ye, Governor Fan and Secretary Cui must recognize it."

"I have been in contact with Zheng Guanqun several times, but I don't know much about his personality. I'm going to learn more about it. The position of the Executive Vice Minister is very critical. The superior can restrict Ma Xiao and the inferior can control most of the resources of the Propaganda Department. Since Secretary Ye has moved away from Fengli, he must find someone who doesn't cause trouble." Xia Xiang paused slightly and said, "Please please give me a face. First pass Zheng Guanqun's review, but not nominate. When Cui Xiang takes the initiative to come and ask, I want to use it to make a transaction..."

"Even I'm planning?" Mei Shengping looked at Mei Xiaolin and said half-jokingly, "Xiaolin, do you want to give him face?"

Mei Xiaolin thought for a while and said with a smile: "I'd like to give him a face when he helped me work at the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League. But if you don't take the example, it will save him from being too proud."

Mei Xiaolin said she was unwilling, but in the end she agreed to go to the municipal party committee with Xia Xiang in the afternoon. She was going to report on her work and hand over the organizational issues. Xia Xiang was going to implement the issue of Zhong Yiping entering the An County Standing Committee, and also to learn more about Zheng Guanqun's character from the side and front.

Qian Jinsong specifically told him about Zheng Guanqun's nomination, which implied that he could make full use of his connections in Yan City to give Ye Shisheng an accurate judgment and decide whether to pass Zheng Guanqun's appointment.

Zheng Guanqun's appointment not only concerns the game between several parties, but also concerns whether the propaganda department will be stuck everywhere in the future. At the same time, it is also an open and secret battle between Ye Shisheng and Cui Xiang, which is of great significance.

Xia Xiang went back to the office first. Mei Xiaolin and Mei Shengping had something to do, and he happened to have something to deal with, so he made an appointment to set off from the provincial party committee at 3 pm.

Xia Xiang first went to the deputy team leader's office to find An Yixing. An Yixing knew what Xia Xiang was going to come and took out the manuscripts he and Peng Mengfan. Xia Xiang put Yan Xiao's manuscripts together, and there were three refutation articles in total. It would be enough to think about it if it was used to throw a stone to ask for directions.

While talking, Song Chaodu and Qian Jinsong came to the office of the leadership group. Following the two was a middle-aged man in his 50s.

A middle-aged man is not tall, with a round face, small eyes, and a smile on his face. He smiles three times when he sees people. He looks very good at it. However, his smile is a bit fake in Xia Xiang's eyes, and Xia Xiang immediately gave him a nickname: Smiling Tiger.

First, Qian Jinsong introduced to everyone that the laughing tiger is Ge Shan, the soon-to-be deputy team leader. Then Song Chaodu also said a few words as usual, and finally Ge Shan made a speech.

Originally, Ge Shan's appointment was only approved by the secretary's meeting, and it still needs to be submitted to the Standing Committee for discussion and approval before it is considered a formal appointment. However, things that are generally recognized by the meeting are rarely rejected at the Standing Committee. Ye Shisheng couldn't wait for the Standing Committee to approve Ge Shan to take office in advance, which was also the pressure brought by the National Daily and Yan Provincial Daily again published articles questioning the adjustment of the industrial structure.

The National Daily is better, and Zou Ru joined forces with a group of people to fight back. However, Yan Provincial Daily has not yet formed an effective counterattack. It would be strange if Ye Shisheng is not in a hurry.

Ge Shan's speech was brief and powerful, and he only said three sentences: "I am here to serve everyone. I am not responsible for administrative leadership, but only responsible for external publicity..."

As soon as Qian Jinsong and Song Chaodu left, Ge Shan closed the door with a smile. He held a closing meeting with Xia Xiang, An Yixing, and Peng Mengfan.

Ge Shan is a smart man. He knew his position as a leader, and he was not a fool. He said straight to the point: "I was entrusted by Secretary-General Qian to the leadership group. On the surface, I was responsible for external publicity, but in fact, everyone knew what to do, so I won't say much. Director Xia, I heard that you have a ready-made manuscript on hand, so I will take it to me to see."

Xia Xiang handed the manuscript to Ge Shan and said, "Team Leader An, one article by Director Peng, and another article by Yan Xiao, an investor in single-city cultural tourism. Please read it."

Ge Shan waved his hand, took the manuscript and looked down. He read it for more than ten minutes without saying a word.

Xia Xiang really appreciates Ge Shan's decisive style. He looks soft and has no delay in doing things. It is indeed interesting.

A few minutes later, Ge Shan took out two manuscripts and said, "The views of these two articles are too soft and the arguments are not sharp enough. Please change them again. This article is not bad, with a skilled writing style, and is very skilled."

When Xia Xiang saw that the manuscript praised by Ge Shan was Yan Xiao, he couldn't help but nodded secretly. Ge Shan was born as a propaganda minister and had a vision.

An Yixing and Peng Mengfan agreed without saying a word. As soon as the two left, only Ge Shan and Xia Xiang were left in the office. Ge Shan regained his smile and said with a smile: "Director Xia, there are no outsiders, so I will tell you the division of labor between us. On the surface, I am responsible for external publicity, but in fact Secretary Qian means that you are responsible for someone to write the manuscript. After the manuscript is written, which newspaper will be published, and when will it be published, I will communicate with the newspaper. You should also know very well that you are the most critical link. Only when the manuscript is good can you be strong after it is published, right?"

Xia Xiang did not forget to be humble and said, "I have no problem organizing the manuscript, but in the general direction, Team Leader Ge still needs to check it. After all, you are experienced..."

Ge Shan was very satisfied with Xia Xiang's attitude. After hearing about Xia Xiang's quarrel with Fengli, he thought Xia Xiang was a young and arrogant young man. After all, many members of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee looked at him differently and had the capital to be arrogant. Unexpectedly, the young man had a handsome smile and a kind voice, which was completely different from the rumored arrogance.

It seems that the rumors are not credible. Ge Shan nodded and had a better impression of Xia Xiang: "Okay, then that's it. I'll submit these three manuscripts first as the first wave of counterattacks. You try to organize the second batch of manuscripts, which is higher than the first batch in terms of level and quality. How about it, are there any problems?"

"No problem." Xia Xiang saw the other party readily and responded immediately, "The matter of duty will definitely not disappoint the leader."

Ge Shan showed a satisfied smile on his face. Who said Xia Xiang likes to be arrogant? He is clearly a young man who knows how to speak in a proper way.

Back at the office, Xia Xiang made a detailed analysis on the next step.

The next manuscript was written by him and Fan Zheng as the second wave of counterattack, which was to form a stalemate with the other party, so that the other party felt that one of his strength was not so strong, and to paralyze the other party. Then, while the debate was made, he worked hard to promote the adjustment of the industrial structure, and then set off a new round of craze in single cities and treasure cities, and used the fact of success to build momentum for the third wave of counterattack.

In the third wave of counterattack, Gao Jinzhou personally came forward, and contacted several experts and professors in the capital. He could even ask Zou Ru to write his own opinion on the successful adjustment of Yan Province's industrial structure, and attack the other party's pain points with facts that are better than words and indisputable facts, and strive to win in one battle!

The propaganda war is just a superficial article. As the director of the General Department of the Leading Group, Xia Xiang knew that he had a great responsibility. He not only had to organize manuscripts to fight back against the other party, but also had to make suggestions for the next step of the restructuring of Dancheng and Baoshi and make convincing achievements.

If the Tonghai Railway in Single City can be started now, it will be a landmark victory. However, the Tonghai Railway involves all aspects of interests and there is almost no possibility of starting construction in a short period of time. Cultural tourism projects are also quite a result, but at this stage there is only one idiom story project, and there is not much persuasion. If the restructuring plan of Peng Mengfan cotton mill can be realized, the achievements of Single City will have enough weight.

Xia Xiang has always disliked placing his hopes on others. He has actually taken a fancy to the market prospects of single-city wineries and believed that if they operate properly, they would definitely make great achievements.

Shancheng Jiangtai Liquor was once very popular in the 1980s because a very prestigious national leader wrote a sentence after tasting Jiangtai Liquor: "There is Moutai in the south, and the following is Jiangtai in the north!" Since then, Taiwan wine has become famous in one fell swoop, and its sales have jumped to the top three in the country. It was once a star enterprise in Shancheng and a big profit and tax dealer.

But not long after, Jiangtai winery took the old path of not distinguishing between state-owned enterprises and government and enterprises, and slowly went downhill. The winery leaders were not enterprising, but wanted to promote their positions, not how to promote Taiwan wine to the whole country, and not how to seek benefits from the market. Instead, like all common problems in state-owned enterprises in Yan Province, they tried every means to open up the relationship between various government agencies and make Taiwan wine a government-specific wine. Major municipal agencies entertain designated wines, taking the administrative route, not the market route.

Indeed, for the sake of protecting its own brands, single cities do stipulate that all guesthouses and public funds for all municipal governments and municipal governments should be used to consume Taiwanese wine, otherwise they will not be reimbursed. The huge market for annual public funds consumption alone, and the large market for Taiwanese wine has a certain influence in single cities and several nearby cities, which is enough to ensure that Taiwanese wineries will not go bankrupt. But it only satisfies food and clothing, with no benefits, no big money, and no small money, and the idea of ​​small wealthy Ze'an is flooded. The once famous Taiwanese wines slowly withdraw from the public's sight, completing the transformation from a nationally renowned enterprise to a local winery.

Dancheng's defeat of Taiwan's winery was also the same way that Yan Province had gradually retreated to local enterprises or even went bankrupt under the impact of the reform tide. Yan Province has too many experiences and lessons worth paying attention to. Unfortunately, under the official-oriented thinking, most state-owned enterprise leaders never regard themselves as managers, but as government officials.
