Chapter 24: Encouragement

"The Ningling City Party Representative Conference was successfully held", Zhao Guodong glanced at the headlines of the Ningling Daily and put it aside. Finally, a major event was concluded, and fifty-six representatives were successfully elected, including the new Tucheng County Party Secretary Wei Xiaolan.

In this situation, Zhao Guodong didn't want to speak at such a meeting, but he knew that he couldn't help but speak passionately for 10 or 20 minutes to stimulate the morale of the people.

It took two weeks to go to Ningling. Apart from the lightning-like journey of six counties and districts in advance, Zhao Guodong never went down again. The problem before him was that the members of the city team needed to stabilize the city team. Only after the city team stabilized can other things be discussed.

Zhao Guodong, the candidate of the Secretary-General of the Municipal Party Committee, communicated with Zhong Yuejun, Lu Jianmin and Jiao Fengming. Zeng Lingchun, who has a meticulous and gentle style, is undoubtedly a candidate that is very welcomed by all parties. When Zhao Guodong proposed this candidate, he almost received unanimous agreement from the bottom of his heart.

However, after Zeng Lingchun was promoted to the Secretary-General of the Municipal Party Committee, it is quite difficult to consider who will be the candidate for the Secretary of the Xijiang District Party Committee.

Zhao Guodong has not yet thrown out this problem. After all, the continuous big moves have to be digested by everyone. On the issue of Wei Xiaolan as the Secretary of the Tucheng County Party Committee, the Standing Committee members of the Municipal Party Committee gave unanimous support, which is largely because everyone thinks that this is the first person action to take office, and Wei Xiaolan's performance is indeed obvious to all.

As for Zeng Lingchun, this is a role that everyone is more welcome, especially those who know Zhao Guodong's work style, all hope that a buffering role can appear in the Standing Committee, which is more conducive to unity.

The content of the first Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee was very simple, which was to determine the candidates for the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, the recommended candidates for the Secretary-General of the Municipal Party Committee, the Secretary of the Tucheng County Party Committee, the Deputy Secretary of the Canghua County Party Committee, and the candidates for the acting county magistrate. Zhao Guodong ended the Standing Committee in just 45 minutes, and its efficiency was astonishing.

Zhao Guodong, who was sitting in the office, felt a little lonely. Since he came to Ningling, the old subordinates in the district and county below were very enthusiastic and wanted to come to his place to sit and talk, but the few people in the city seemed to be unable to find a suitable position at once.

Others said it, even You Lianxiang and Blue Light seemed to be a little deliberately keeping a distance from themselves, not even as close to Jiao Fengming and himself.

Zhao Guodong could understand the other party's feelings. After all, he was their old subordinate, so he became their leader when he came back. Although You Lianxiang spoke enthusiastically in her words, she was afraid that she still felt something when she came back.

People are different from others, and flowers are a few red, I hope they can figure this out.

"Secretary Zhao, Secretary Zeng is here." Secretary Yun Rui poked his head at the door, and saw that Zhao Guodong seemed to have a strange expression and said carefully.

"Oh, please come in." Zhao Guodong cheered up.

Zeng Lingchun was recommended as a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee. The candidate for the Secretary-General of the Municipal Party Committee has been reported to the province. Zhao Guodong also called Ge Jing specifically and asked her to help him to implement it quickly. This kind of thing generally requires a process. The Organization Department has to come down to inspect and report it back to the department based on the feedback, and then submit it to the provincial party committee standing committee for a pre-order. The time is estimated to be less than two or three months. However, the situation in Ningling is special now, and Zhao Guodong hopes that the province can complete the process within one month.

When Zeng Lingchun walked into the office, he immediately felt a long-lost kindness.

After three years of separation, Zhao Guodong's style remained the same, but his position was a completely overturning feeling. In the past, he was a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and the Secretary of the District Party Committee. He was the Secretary of the District Party Committee and the District Mayor. Now the other party has jumped a few square meters, but he has only taken one step forward, and the distance is getting farther and farther away. However, Zeng Lingchun's mood was quite peaceful and he did not realize that there was anything wrong with it.

When Zhao Guodong was promoted to Huaiqing as executive vice mayor, he had a premonition that Zhao Guodong would come back, but the speed of coming back was beyond Zeng Lingchun's expectations. In his guess, maybe Zhao Guodong would appear in Ningling as mayor in three or four years. Unexpectedly, in less than four years, Zhao Guodong stepped into Ningling as the secretary of the municipal party committee.

Things in the world are like new chess game, and everything is possible in this world, especially when it happens to Zhao Guodong, which is indeed not a strange thing.

Zhao Guodong came in with Zeng Lingchun's hand at the door. Both of them felt extremely friendly and had an indescribable sense of fate.

In fact, after Zhao Guodong came to Ningling, Zhao Guodong and Zeng Lingchun only met three times, one at the city-wide cadre meeting, the other at the preparatory meeting of the conveners of various groups before the city party representative meeting, and the other at the city-wide party representative meeting, the two had not even really sat down and talked alone.

Of course, Zeng Lingchun knew that he was recommended as a member of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee at the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee. He was approved with the support of Zhao Guodong. After Jiao Fengming served as the Organization Minister, he had thought about finding this position, but soon he gave up on this plan. Huang Ling had a fair impression of him and could be said to have never considered him at all.

There was a rumor in the city that Huang Ling intended to let him go to the United Front Work Department of the Municipal Party Committee to replace Zou Zhichang, who was preparing to serve as vice chairman of the Municipal CPPCC, as the minister. This is a good place for retirement.

Of course, now everything has started over.

The two cups of steaming black tea exuded a unique strong fragrance, which seemed to symbolize the harmonious relationship between the two that is difficult for outsiders to understand.

Many people were surprised that Zeng Lingchun was able to get along very well with Zhao Guodong when he worked in Xijiang District. In their opinion, with Zhao Guodong's strength and sharp style, even if he was as meticulous and gentle as Zeng Lingchun, he would inevitably have bumps and bumps.

But as they saw, Zhao Guodong and Zeng Lingchun cooperated quite well, and even the cadres promoted by Zhao Guodong might have a dispute with Zhao Guodong because of disagreement, but Zhao Guodong seemed to have never had any unpleasant times with Zeng Lingchun.

Back in Ningling, Zhao Guodong found that sometimes he still needed to drink black tea to relieve fatigue. The strong smell of black tea can help him to be clearer, which is better than green tea, especially when he is in a highly busy state during this period.

"Secretary Zhao, it's almost four years since we parted. The ancients' words are indeed very insightful. The word "Time flies" is so vivid. In almost the blink of an eye, you become my leader again." Zeng Lingchun smiled slightly, feeling a little touched, moved and grateful in his heart, and wanted to express it, but he knew that Zhao Guodong didn't like such a straightforward expression, so he could only express it in more obscure words.

"Haha, Lao Zeng, why don't I welcome me? Still think I'm worried and suffering when I'm not easy to get along with?" Zhao Guodong laughed loudly, looking very happy.

"Where, where, actually, from the day you left Ningling, I had a feeling that you would come back, but I did not expect this day to come so quickly." Zeng Lingchun's words were quite sincere, "When the news of your return came, what was my first feeling, was my excitement!"

Excited?!

Zhao Guodong felt very comfortable, not happy, not shock, not emotion, but excited. This should be the other party’s truth, what does it mean? It means having a backbone and a hope, which is Zhao Guodong’s understanding.

"Lao Zeng, to be honest, I am still looking forward to it when I came back. Although I arrived in Huaiqing and the Ministry of Energy, I always feel that Ningling is my root, and Ningling's cadres and masses are the people I am closest to. This is my heartfelt words. When I returned to Ningling, I felt like a wanderer, after going through a bumpy Nirvana cycle, I finally returned home. No matter how many difficulties I have in working in Ningling, I feel at ease. No matter how hard or tired I am, I am willing!" Zhao Guodong was also a little moved.

Zeng Lingchun's heart was also shocked. Zhao Guodong's ability to tell him heartily was enough to prove his trust in himself. The warm currents surged in Zeng Lingchun's heart.

"Secretary Zhao, I believe that the 600,000 cadres and masses in Xijiang District are eagerly looking forward to you returning to Ningling and leading our Ningling to a more brilliant step again." Zeng Lingchun took a breath and slowed down his speech. "I also believe that the cadres and masses in the city can usher in a better future under your leadership."

It is rare for a person like Zeng Lingchun to say such words, unless he is really from the bottom of his heart. Zhao Guodong felt deeply in his heart. Huang Ling's prestige in Ningling City is not low, but the county and district leaders are more afraid of him than respect, especially the suburban county leaders, and what about the next step?

"I also look forward to working with everyone to achieve the development of our Ningling through our joint efforts. Lao Zeng, you have to help me." Zhao Guodong said with a smile.

"Secretary Zhao, what do you mean? Working with you is our fate. I also want to thank you for your kindness to me..." Zeng Lingchun was interrupted by Zhao Guodong before he finished speaking. "Lao Zeng, recommending you to be a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee is the affirmation of your personal work by the Municipal Party Committee. It is not me, Zhao, who is favored by personal feelings. I think your ability is most suitable for serving as the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and Secretary-General. If you hold this position, you can better play the wisdom of our Municipal Party Committee's collective decision-making. It's that simple, there is no other reason."
