Chapter 469 A unique political incident

It is impossible for the secretary to not interfere in government affairs. Too much intervention will also cause dissatisfaction from the governor. Fan Ruiheng knew very well that he and Ye Shisheng would maintain a balance, and the fulcrum of the balance between them was Xia Xiang.

Xia Xiang is not at a high level, but is only at a department level. It is not worth mentioning in the provincial party committee compound. But it is precisely because he is not at a high level that he can handle the secretary and the governor more easily without having to stand firmly. Because in the provincial party committee, no one can be a department-level cadre, so even if he is good at everything, everyone values ​​his abilities, not his position and power. Therefore, Xia Xiang, as a buffer between the secretary and the governor, and as the core figure of the leading group for industrial structure adjustment, he has made very clever contacts between Ye Shisheng and Fan Ruiheng, becoming a key bridge for the subtle relationship between the two.

So when Xia Xiang came to report on his work and briefly mentioned that he had just come out of Secretary Ye's office, Fan Ruiheng smiled with relief. Xia Xiang is a smart person and is very good at grasping the limit. Who will stand with him in the future is a matter of the future. At least at this stage, he is trustworthy.

After Xia Xiang finished reporting on his work, he also told the scene of Secretary Ye standing and revising the manuscript, and said with a smile: "Secretary Ye is really touching. It took him more than ten minutes to revise the manuscript. I see that he stayed on Fan Zheng's manuscript for the longest time, and he also admired Fan Zheng's literary talent the most."

Fan Ruiheng also smiled: "Secretary Ye is standing up to revise the manuscript, out of respect for the article with great literary talent, and is a model. Maybe this matter will become a beautiful story if it is spread out in the future... Fan Zheng's articles can be seen by Secretary Ye, and it is also his blessing. It also proves that he has not learned in vain for several years in the capital, and has not let down my efforts for him..."

Xia Xiang heard Fan Ruiheng's implicit voice and said, "Fan Zheng and I are now senior brothers. Even if we don't have this relationship with Governor Fan, he and I will make friends. After a while, I will go to Beijing to hand in homework. If Fan Zheng has time, let him and I go to visit Mr. Zou with me."

Fan Ruiheng understood what Xia Xiang meant. Xia Xiang said that no matter whether Fan Ruiheng was in power or not, he would regard Fan Zheng as his junior brother, which was equivalent to a long-term promise, and he was very happy.

Fan Ruiheng made two considerations when asked Fan Zheng to participate in the debate. One is that Fan Zheng’s research in the Academy of Social Sciences, which just shows his Qingming as a governor. Fan Zheng participated in the debate as a scholar of the Academy of Social Sciences. Regardless of whether others knew that he was the governor or not, it was of great benefit to Fan Zheng’s reputation. Now the debate is a great opportunity to become famous, and opportunities must not be missed. Moreover, Fan Ruiheng also believes that although this debate has political purpose, it has attracted dual attention from the political and academic circles, and the opportunities are unprecedented. If Fan Zheng can become famous in one fell swoop, it will naturally be great.

Second, whether Fan Zheng can take this opportunity to become famous, it will be of great benefit to his future growth and is an extremely rare opportunity to train. After all, Fan Zheng has decided to hide in the Academy of Social Sciences to do research, but the Academy of Social Sciences is not a place where he studies completely, and scholars who do not involve politics do not exist. Fan Ruiheng believes that Fan Zheng is not suitable for politics, but as long as he lives in society, everyone leaves politics without politics. Fan Zheng is actually a disguised political work in the Academy of Social Sciences.

A shortcut to influence politics through knowledge.

Although Fan Ruiheng also hates Cheng Xixue, in his subconscious, he still hopes that Fan Zheng will eventually become a person like Cheng Xixue, and can express his personal views on national plans and national policies as an economist, and be an uncrowned economic adviser with the spirit of guiding the country.

Xia Xiang said what he should say, expressed his attitude, reported on his work, and said goodbye.

What Xia Xiang didn't expect was that he thought Fan Ruiheng was just talking casually, but unexpectedly, Ye Shisheng's "revised manuscript" was spreading quickly in the provincial party committee compound. Everyone knew the rumors that the article "Three Musketeers" was deeply appreciated by Secretary Ye, and he knew the names of the Three Musketeers well. For example, everyone knew that Xia Xiang was a member of the leadership group and a core figure. Fan Zheng was the governor's son, a scholar of the Academy of Social Sciences, Yan Xiao was an investor in single-city cultural tourism. There were not many people who knew about it, but everyone who knew it would suddenly realize it, and then he said with understanding: "Yan Xiao, Governor Fan's niece, no wonder, no wonder!"

Xia thought clearly that Fan Ruiheng intended to reveal this matter, which was to use Ye Shisheng's name to raise the three of them. At the same time, it also showed that Fan Ruiheng's current support for industrial structure adjustment is 100%.

After hearing the rumors, Ye Shisheng just shook his head and smiled. This matter did not hurt his reputation at all, but instead highlighted his serious and responsible tall image. He had no reason to be unhappy.

Just like what Ye Shisheng and Xia Xiang expected, after the three rebuttal articles were published, it caused a huge sensation in Yan Province! Many experts and scholars were shocked by the sharp views of the article, and some were even more shocked and were scolded by Xia Xiang and gasped.

What is completely different from the first three articles that did not cause any response after the first three articles were published, the second three articles were published in the second page of Yan Provincial Daily in the form of editorial not only caused a lot of pain in the industry, but even some people threw a cup and cursed when they saw the article. For a moment, many scholars who first published doubtful articles in Yan Provincial Daily called each other and asked Xia Xiang, who Fan Zheng and Yan Xiao were. They were almost in a mess, and were full of scolding Xia Xiang for being bold, accusing Fan Zheng of being sinister and cunning, and shouting that Yan Xiao had a gentle knife!

All the experts and scholars who questioned the adjustment of the industrial structure, as if they were stepped on their tails, jumped out and performed with shouts.

Unlike the experts and scholars who were hit in pain and jumped and shouted happily, the articles of Xia Xiang and the other two also caused a lot of response among the people. Originally, there were very few retail sales at the newsstands, and almost no one went to buy the Yan Provincial Daily. Suddenly, all the newsstand owners discovered an amazing phenomenon. More than a few times more people came to buy the newspapers than before, and without exception, they all bought the Yan Provincial Daily!

Generally, a newsstand can order a few Yansheng Daily at most, and it has to be completed as a levy task. I don’t know what big thing happened, but Yansheng Daily suddenly became very popular, which is really strange. However, there is motivation for the market. Many newsstand owners purchased Yansheng Daily in large quantities, and their sales increased by more than ten times more than usual. After asking, they found out that there were several articles on it that spoke the people’s hearts.

Bruce Lee opened a newsstand, which was located at the intersection of Gongnong Road and Central China Street. In the past ten years, he knew about the sales data of various newspapers. He could basically be clear about how many copies he bought every day without being unsalable or losing money. He was basically clear about the door. As soon as he opened it today, it became a weird thing. Everyone who came to buy newspapers had the same accent and asked, "Yan Provincial Daily?"

Bruce Lee was unaware of it, so he picked up a Yansheng Daily and started reading it. After reading the articles of Xia Xiang and the other two, he slapped the table excitedly and said loudly: "It's really good to say that his grandmother is so good. No wonder they all want to buy Yansheng Daily. If Yansheng Daily often publishes such good articles, I dare say that even if you don't pay, you can double the circulation."

Bruce Lee then wisely realized that today's articles are indeed refreshing to read, but today's articles refuted the articles published by some experts a few days ago. If they are read together, they will be more refreshing. He suddenly made a bold decision and hurriedly contacted his best friend who collected waste products and asked him to go to the waste paper mill to buy all the Yansheng Daily newspapers a few days ago. The price is easy to negotiate.

My friend thought Bruce Lee was crazy, but he couldn't resist Bruce Lee's repeated pleas. He went to the waste paper mill to buy back a batch of Yansheng Daily that was about to turn into pulp. It was brand new as if it had just left the printing factory. Bruce Lee added thousands of copies of today's newspapers and asked someone to order two newspapers with different arguments together for sale, called "causes and consequences", and the price was as high as 5 yuan per copy.

As a result, Bruce Lee's fantasy idea was recognized by the market. In just one day, his new and old newspapers were sold out. After a rough calculation, he actually made a net profit of less than 10,000 yuan!

... Xia Xiang certainly didn't know about the articles of the three of them, and was also made a big fuss by a newsstand owner named Bruce Lee and made a big profit. What he knew was that after the article was published, the leading group suddenly had more calls. Some dissatisfied experts asked Xia Xiang to argue with them, some cursed Xia Xiang, and some hypocrites asked for interviews in the name of asking for advice in person. In short, you only need to sit in the office of the leading group and don't have to go out to fully experience the grand occasion of the Yan Provincial Daily's paper in Luoyang today.

Not to mention the hotline of Yan Provincial Daily being blown up by enthusiastic people. More than 80% of the people who supported Xia Xiang and the three people made Yan Provincial Daily tired of dealing with it. This is the first time since its establishment that it has encountered such a passionate scene.

In contrast to the president of Yansheng Daily's frown, the people in the distribution department were laughing. They didn't care about politics and didn't care who had the upper hand, but today's sales data is the highest in more than ten years, which made them realize that they could make a small profit, so they naturally couldn't help but feel happy.

Xia Xiang sat in the office of the leadership group, calm on the surface, but in fact he still felt proud inside. Since Ma Xiao suddenly took the initiative to provoke the propaganda war, the leadership group has been in a passive state of responding to the battle, and it has not until today that it has a beautiful counterattack in the propaganda war.

Although he also knew that the other party would soon organize new forces to fight back fiercely, at least today's best-selling of Yan Provincial Daily also proved the people's will.

The first person to call for congratulations was Mr. Zou.

Mr. Zou's voice was excited and showed a hint of pride: "Good, Xia Xiang, very good. When I received a call from Cheng Xixue today, he said sarcastically that I taught two good students. I didn't know what happened. It was not until he pointed out the article from Yan Provincial Daily that I found a copy and read it... The three articles complement each other, each with their own characteristics, like the horns of military strategy, echoing from the beginning and the end, and interlocking each article. Each article is independent and provides arguments for the other two articles. It is wonderful and wonderful. After reading it, I called Cheng Xixue again, saying that thanks to his reminder, otherwise I had not found such a happy thing today. Cheng Xixue was so angry at that time, haha..."

It is rare that Mr. Zou laughed happily like a child. After laughing, he asked again: "Who is Yan Xiaoxiao? It seems to be a girl's name. Her articles are not simple, with new ideas and elegant words..."

Xia Xiang laughed. Yan Xiao was so lucky that he really caught Old Zou's eyes. He knew that Yan Xiao's opportunity had come.

As soon as Mr. Zou hung up the phone, another call came in. What Xia Xiang didn't expect was that Ye Shisheng actually called in person.

"Comrade Xia Xiang, I heard a news that this is the third time that Yan Provincial Daily has printed it today. I heard that the newsprint is not enough, and it is urgently transporting it from other places... Tell me, how should I reward you?" Ye Shisheng was also quite interesting. He did not directly say how much response the article today caused. He praised Xia Xiang's success from the perspective that even newsprint was not enough. It is indeed the distinctive art of speech for leaders.

Xia Xiang quickly said modestly: "What does it have to do with me?"

This sentence was said more bluntly, Ye Shisheng was slightly stunned, thinking that Xia Xiang had really raised his hair? Unexpectedly, Xia Xiang immediately said: "It was all the credit for Secretary Ye's 'reposted and revised'. It was because of Secretary Ye's brilliant writing that the articles of the three of us resonated with readers. It was Secretary Ye's feelings that made our articles live."

Ye Shisheng was stunned for a moment, then he said: "Xia Xiang, your mouth and a pen are really perfect. Unexpectedly, you not only have outstanding abilities, but also have outstanding eloquence and articles. Good, very good, very good!"

Ye Shisheng put down the phone and smiled. The depressed mood of the past few days was wiped out. He thought to himself, he didn't know what kind of faces Cui Xiang, Ma Xiao and others were?

Not to mention Xia Xiang, he received another call from Fan Ruiheng. Fan Ruiheng was happier than Ye Shisheng because Fan Zheng was his son. Even if this battle was not a one-shot success, it would have laid a solid foundation for the future path. He was naturally full of joy, and at the same time, he also felt a little closer to Xia Xiang.

However, in the Provincial Party Committee Propaganda Department, Cui Xiang looked ashen and Ma Xiao looked angry. The two sat opposite each other, and no one said a word for a long time.

Zheng Guanqun sat aside, observing his face and knowing that it would be better to shut up at this time, and he didn't say a word.

After Zheng Guanqun was transferred to the position of executive vice minister of the Provincial Party Committee Propaganda Department, he obeyed Ma Xiao's arrangements on the surface and often reported to Cui Xiang. In the eyes of outsiders, he was Cui Xiang's person who was just like a fake one. But Ye Shisheng and Xia Xiang knew in their hearts that Zheng Guanqun was performing an unprecedented infernal affairs, because he had too close contact with Xia Xiang in private. Basically, as long as Ma Xiao did not avoid him, the decisions he made would be heard from Xia Xiang as soon as possible.

If Xia wants to know, it means Ye Shisheng knows it.

Ye Shisheng was very satisfied with Xia Xiang's plan to secretly cross Chen Cang. Whenever he got some conspiracy between Cui Xiang and Ma Xiao from Zheng Guanqun, he remembered that Cui Xiang thought that Zheng Guanqun was his person and tried his best to transfer Zheng Guanqun, so he couldn't help laughing a few times. He had to sigh that Xia Xiang was really a person who could make full use of the people's desires when judging the situation. Even Cui Xiang, who had been in the officialdom for more than ten years, had missed people's eyes, but was not as good as Xia Xiang. I don't know what methods Xia Xiang used, but actually made Zheng Guanqun stand with him willingly. Cui Xiangyu, who abandoned the promotion, ignored him, and was also a person who was well versed in the hearts of people and understood power and strategy.

Xia Xiang is indeed a talent.

However, when Zheng Guanqun first arrived at the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee, Cui Xiang trusted him, but Ma Xiao was always a little wary of him, so the core secret between Cui Xiang and Ma Xiao that Zheng Guanqun had contact with was limited. He was not in a hurry, and on the surface he obeyed all arrangements, was patient and confident to gain further trust from the two.

The huge response caused by Xia Xiang and the other three counterattacks among the experts and among the people was completely beyond the surprise of Cui Xiang and Ma Xiao. After receiving the call early in the morning, the two began to look bad. Until noon, the phone from the Propaganda Department kept ringing, and their faces became increasingly ugly.

Cui Xiang simply stopped going back to his deputy secretary's office, but stayed in Ma Xiao's office to discuss the next countermeasures.

In desperation, the two forgot to let Zheng Guanqun avoid it, but discussed in front of him how to organize the expert counterattack again and how to suppress Xia Xiang, because the head of the leadership group is Xia Xiang now. If Xia Xiang had economic or style problems, Ye Shisheng would break his wings...

"The political suppression is not possible now. Xia Xiang is popular. Not only is it popular in front of Ye Shisheng, but it is also deeply trusted in front of Fan Ruiheng. The secretary and the governor both protect him. He is also cautious and has no handle..." Cui Xiang had a deep understanding of Xia Xiang. After thinking about it carefully, he felt that Xia Xiang was wrapped very tightly. Now that he wanted to attack him, he really couldn't find a place to start. "It would be great if he was still in An County. In An County, he would definitely not be so close to Ye Shisheng and Fan Ruiheng, nor would he become the core figure of the leadership group now. He wanted to leave him idle before he transferred him to the provincial party committee, but the result was good. He was more and more troubled and could not suppress him..."

Cui Xiang said he didn't regret it and wanted to come to the provincial party committee to be fake. In fact, he had long been regretful, but he was just unwilling to admit it due to his face. Today he said it in front of Ma Xiao, which was also the most helpless sigh he had made in his heart.
