Chapter 133
On Wednesday morning, Wang Siyu was naked and holding a quilt in his arms. He was sleeping soundly, but was awakened by a crisp phone ringtone. He was confused. He turned over, touched his cell phone, squinted his eyes and looked at the number. Seeing that it was called by Li Fengzi, the propaganda minister of the municipal party committee, he hurriedly answered. Li Fengzi complained on the phone, saying that after Wang Siyu went abroad for training, Tang Weiguo took the opportunity to strengthen public opinion supervision and put great pressure on her. ~
It turned out that a few days ago, Luoshui Daily published several criticism chapters, which aroused the dissatisfaction of Mayor Tang Weiguo. He called the president and editor-in-chief to the office, severely criticized the newspaper's recent work, and greeted the Propaganda Department, making it clear that the news review must be strengthened, otherwise the relevant leaders will be held accountable.
After hearing this, Wang Siyu frowned and comforted her a few words, then called Tang Weiguo over, exchanged greetings, then put away his smile, and said in a serious tone: "Brother Weiguo, we have had a debate on the management of the news media before. I have always advocated that it is better to be rough than detailed. As long as it is reported based on facts, there is no need to be too strict. Appropriate criticism is still very helpful for us to improve administrative efficiency."
Tang Weiguo smiled faintly, sat on the sand, and said lightly: "Brother Youyu, of course this is the reason, but we should still take the overall situation into consideration and be political. As a party newspaper, we should promote more positive things, pay attention to correct guidance, and we should not always look at the problem with a magnifying glass, otherwise it will misunderstand the masses and bring many negative impacts."
Wang Siyu shook his head slightly and then retorted: "Brother Wei Guo, if the newspapers are too clean, the society will be very dirty. If you refuse to tell the truth, it is a personal shame; if you dare not tell the truth, it is a shame for the media; if you don't want to listen to the truth, it is a shame for us leading cadres. I have a deep feeling when I was training here. The American media has played a very important role in supervision of the government. We should learn from its positive side. Party newspapers should not be just the mouthpiece of the party, but also the mouthpiece of the people."
"Brother Youyu, you are right, but you still have to cover the cover you should cover!" Tang Weiguo stood up, walked on the ground for a few steps, and said uneasy: "You may not be very clear when you are abroad. Yinghua Group has something to do. They are putting out fires everywhere. However, the media on our side do not know how to protect the company, but instead fan the flames, which can easily arouse anxiety among citizens. I have become angry and warned them that any negative reports involving Yinghua Group must be published with my consent, and other aspects should be more cautious. Unexpectedly, Minister Li made a big fuss and went to your side to complain again. ~"
"What happened to Yinghua Group, is it serious?" Wang Siyu sat upright and asked quickly. He sensitively realized that the problem might be quite large, otherwise it would not cause such a strong rebound from Tang Weiguo.
Tang Weiguo hesitated for a moment, waved his hand and said softly: "I don't know much about the details. However, Liu Yinghua called for help and asked the major media in the province to plead for help. Don't follow the urge to make fun of Yinghua Group. Yinghua Group has a very common significance to Luoshui. When the company encounters difficulties, we should still take care of it."
Wang Siyu frowned and thought for a while, then eased his tone and nodded, "Special circumstances can naturally be handled specially, but I still hope that it can create a relaxed atmosphere for the media to strengthen the power of public opinion supervision."
"That's natural." Tang Weiguo turned around, touched his head with his hand, and changed the topic: "Brother Youyu, when you come back, the situation in Luoshui may change greatly. At that time, I hope we can maintain a tacit cooperation."
"What kind of changes?" Wang Siyu was slightly stunned, pulled up the quilt, and asked tentatively: "Brother Wei Guo, have you received any news, right?"
Tang Weiguo laughed implicitly and said meaningfully: "The fire in Nanyue is getting stronger and stronger, and may also burn Lao Yin's butt. Yesterday afternoon, he was invited to talk again. It was not that easy for Lin to keep him."
Wang Siyu nodded, said perfunctorily for a few words, then hung up the phone, thinking secretly that this so-called change may be related to Tang Weiguo's promotion. It is a good way to use the fire from Nanyue Province to solve the Luoshui problem.
Yin Zhaoqi is one of Secretary Lin’s important assistants. He has close ties with several heavyweight officials in the officialdom of Guangdong. It is very likely that he is slightly implicated.
However, according to the original arrangement, Wang Siyu would soon leave Luoshui after returning to China. Therefore, he did not take the deep meaning implicitly in Tang Weiguo's dialect. After all, the focus of this year was the result of the game of the plenary session.
Twenty minutes later, Wang Siyu left the hotel and came to Yale University. He walked into the classroom with other officials, sat quietly behind the desk, looked through the training materials, and prepared to deal with the professor's questions. After working for many years, he could still relive campus life. This was also a rare pleasure for these pampering officials.
The morning class was very relaxing. After lunch, after a short rest, the officials were divided into several groups and visited the farmhouse on the outskirts of the city. Wang Siyu's group went to a wine estate.
Halfway through the car window, they were enjoying the beautiful pastoral scenery. Everyone was in a good mood. Wang Siyu answered a call. It was from the Embassy in the United States. The other party did not reveal his identity and his words were vague. He just politely stated that he had arrived in the New York City and asked him to meet him in the evening. Wang Siyu agreed readily. After hanging up the phone, he smiled slightly and guessed that perhaps Miaomiao's mother's whereabouts were obvious.
Forty minutes later, we arrived at the vineyard. The owner of this manor is a descendant of France. His ancestors have made a living by making wine. After immigrating here, we grafted French grapes onto American rootstocks and cultivated excellent winemaking varieties.
Generally, the fruiting period of white grapes is shorter, three to five years, while the red grapes take five to seven years. The farms here have implemented automated fertilization and irrigation, but only pruning, picking and winemaking processes, and still use manual work to maintain the traditional style.
The owner was very enthusiastic. After the visit, he invited everyone to the underground wine cellar, which was filled with a wide range of wines. The fragrance of wine was filled with. More than a dozen people sat around the bar, tasting wine and exchanging related issues in agriculture. They were very happy. When they left, like everyone else, Wang Siyu also bought two bottles of aged wine, intending to give it to Ning Lu as a gift.
Back in the city, Wang Siyu called the staff member of the embassy and asked him to meet at a restaurant on campus. When he left the hotel and rushed to the entrance of the restaurant, a young man in a suit and tie walked down the steps, greeted him, stretched out his right hand, and smiled and said, "Hello, Secretary Wang, I am Liu Yingdong, deputy military officer of the Embassy in the United States, and I am very happy to meet you."
"Comrade Yingdong, hello." Wang Siyu was slightly stunned, looking up and down at the burly man, and shook hands with the other party enthusiastically. He knew very well that the military ranks of the domestic military embassy in the United States were far higher than those of other embassies abroad. Most of the national defense military officers were at the level of major generals and were representatives of the national armed forces. They communicated with foreign troops. The level of deputy military officers was also very high. Many were sent by the Second Department of the General Staff and were responsible for extremely important missions. When the other party suddenly made an appointment, they must have had an unusual thing.
The two of them exchanged a few greetings, went up to the third floor, entered the private room, and after ordering, Liu Yingdong first showed his ID, looked around, picked up the teacup, and whispered: "Secretary Wang, how about it, are you still used to living here?"
Wang Siyu nodded and smiled and said, "It's okay. The US has made great arrangements in all aspects. Although the training time was not long this time, I felt that I had gained a lot."
Liu Yingdong smiled, took a sip of tea, put down the cup, and said straight to the point: "Secretary Wang, this form of communication is originally excellent. It can broaden your horizons and learn advanced experience from the US side. However, in recent years, some unfriendly forces in the US side have also used this exchange activity to try every means to win over officials in the water to achieve the unspeakable purpose."
Wang Siyu smiled slightly and said half-jokingly: "Isn't it the trick of the Cold War era?"
Liu Yingdong nodded, played with the cup, and whispered: "There is a certain similarity. Their infiltration into the country is all-round and has never stopped. He pays special attention to young senior officials. As early as more than ten years ago, they had several similar plans to cultivate pro-American factions in China to influence domestic political diplomacy, so as to meet their interests in Asia and even the world."
Wang Siyu put away his smile, his expression became solemn, and pointed his finger at the tip of his nose, saying in disbelief: "Will it be that I have become the target they have won over?"
Liu Yingdong smiled and said calmly: "According to the news I just received, those people seem to have taken action, and their target is one of the trained officials. After careful analysis, everyone agreed that among these officials, you are the most suitable candidate."
Wang Siyu also smiled and nodded, "It's true, but I haven't felt anything unusual recently. Maybe they haven't started to take action yet."
Liu Yingdong picked up the black leather bag beside him, took out a thick kraft paper bag from it, handed it over, and smiled and said, "Secretary Wang, these are some of the intelligence personnel we have against China. Please compare it to see if you have familiar faces."
Wang Siyu nodded, took the kraft paper bag, opened it, took out a stack of photos from it, and looked it through one by one. After dropping more than a dozen photos, his eyes fell on an old man with a kind face, stared at the elegant face, frowned and thought for a while, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly pointed at the photo, and said softly: "Comrade Yingdong, I have seen this person. A few days ago, I was walking with my friends on the campus of Yale University. He was nearby, and I asked him to help take photos."
Liu Yingdong took the photo, looked at it, and smiled and said, "That's right. This person is John, a former graduate of Yale University and a member of the Skeleton and Bones Society. He was active in Europe in his early years and once used to cover up his life as a scholar. He came to China for six years. After returning to the IA, he was entrusted with important tasks and was a famous Guotong. In fact, he not only serves the IA, but also has connections with some large multinational companies."
Wang Siyu frowned slightly and said softly: "That's really a trouble, but no matter what, I still hope to eliminate the interference and complete the training task smoothly."
Liu Yingdong put away the photo, put it back into the kraft paper bag, and smiled and said, "It's okay, Secretary Wang, leave it to us for treatment. It will be solved through special channels. If you encounter abnormal situations, keep in touch with me at any time."
"Okay." Wang Siyu nodded and sighed softly. Until now, he deeply felt how important Yu Chunlei's reminder was. The intelligence bureau, which was said to be omnipresent in the past, may have started activities. He used to be just a joke, but he did not expect that the situation was really so serious.
After dinner, Liu Yingdong accompanied Wang Siyu back to the hotel and carefully inspected the room. No eavesdropping equipment was found. Liu Yingdong briefly introduced some common tricks of the Intelligence Bureau and some countermeasures, so he said goodbye and left and returned to New York.
After the other party's reminder, Wang Siyu was much more cautious and spent the whole night on the computer at home and did not go to the bar downstairs to avoid any trouble and cause unnecessary trouble.
The next morning, after washing up, he came to the curved balcony and did a few chest expansion exercises. But on the balcony next to him, a young and beautiful white girl appeared. The beautiful golden girl actually danced into aerobics openly under his gaze.
Wang Siyu turned around, leaned against the railing, and looked at the other person with a smile. After a while, the girl stopped, took off the pink card, turned to look at him, pursed her lips and showed her snow-white teeth, and said very friendly: "Hi, hello, are you a Chinese?"
"Yes, what about you, beautiful lady, is it a cia?" Wang Siyu pinched his jaw with his hands and said with a smile.
"No, I'm here to relax and leave in the afternoon." The girl shrugged, waved her hand at him, then twisted her waist and hips, returned to the room, sat on the bed, touched her phone, dialed a number, and said with a sad face: "Hi, boss, let me tell you about unfortunate news. I was discovered after just meeting me."
