When his superior retired, Li Lin, as his secretary, was implicated and demoted to an indefinite secondment as deputy township head in a remote rural town.
With no backing, Li Lin's polit...
Twenty minutes later, Liang Xiangwen, Li Lin and Wei Minmin met downstairs of the Municipal Party Committee and got on a car heading to the provincial capital.
Wei Minmin was extremely surprised when she saw Li Lin. She couldn't understand why she brought Li Lin, a township-level cadre, with her to the Provincial Party Committee Propaganda Department to do business.
Minister Liang said that even I, a backbone member of the Municipal Party Committee Propaganda Department, could not help, so how much of a role could Li Lin, a layman, play?
She looked at Li Lin twice more out of curiosity.
Li Lin felt Wei Minmin's questioning gaze, but he just glanced at her lightly and ignored her.
This woman has an aloof personality. The more welcoming you are to her, the more arrogant she will become. On the contrary, if you treat her coldly, she will try hard to get close to you.
What kind of personality is this? It's a bit mean!
Li Lin smiled in his heart.
Li Lin sat in the passenger seat, Liang Xiangwen and Wei Minmin sat in the back seat.
On the way, Liang Xiangwen took the initiative to discuss work with Li Lin.
"Xiao Lin, this is what I think. You should focus on Minister Li Lan and try to get her to help invite Minister Fang to have dinner together."
"As for me, I will go to the provincial TV station to meet Deputy Director Song... Their director is newly transferred from Yanjing, and I am not very familiar with him, but Deputy Director Song used to be the editor-in-chief of the station, and I have had contact with her at work. I will try my best to see if I can arrange a meeting with the new director through Deputy Director Song..."
Deputy Director Song? The former editor-in-chief? Could it be Song Siyao?
Li Lin thought to herself. When she was the editor-in-chief, she was at the deputy department level. It was natural for her to be transferred to the deputy director. It was most likely her.
I never thought that one day I would see this lovely Editor-in-Chief Song again. Oh no, now I should call him Director Song.
Especially her thick glasses, which often left a shallow mark on her nose bridge, and she had to push them up from time to time...I still remember this scene vividly.
There was no point in refusing now that he was already in the car. Moreover, just before he got in the car, Qian Lingyun had called him to tell him that if the matter was settled, he would be promoted to deputy director.
This is an exchange of interests, using one's own connections in exchange for career advancement.
In fact, Li Lin is still lucky. Many times, leaders can drain your network of contacts with just one word, but may not necessarily bring you any practical benefits.
Listening to Liang Xiangwen's words, Li Lin nodded slightly, turned his head to look at him and said, "Okay, everything will be done according to the minister's instructions."
Liang Xiangwen felt relieved after receiving Li Lin's affirmative answer.
Although he offered to go to the provincial radio station in person, it would be impossible for him to do so given his current connections!
He and Song Siyao had only met each other a few times, and he had no idea whether she could remember his name.
The reason for making such an arrangement in front of Li Lin and Wei Minmin was mainly to cover up his own helplessness in this matter.
At the same time, it was also to reduce his own responsibility. If things were not done well and he received complaints from Peng Yutao when he returned, he could just say with confidence that he had tried his best and there was nothing he could do.
On the contrary, if he did nothing and just relied on Li Lin to do it alone, even if the task was accomplished, he would not get any credit at all...
Wei Minmin was deeply shocked as she listened to the conversation between the two.
According to Minister Liang, if we want to get things done this time, we have to rely on Li Lin’s relationship with the provincial party committee?
Damn! I didn't realize this guy even knew Minister Li Lan of the Provincial Party Committee's Organization Department...
She was very surprised, and at the same time, she felt very uncomfortable that she was not assigned any tasks. She felt that she was ignored by Minister Liang. After all, she was a backbone of the Municipal Party Committee Propaganda Department, so it was not a problem for her to help a little...
So, she looked up and asked Liang Xiangwen expectantly, "Minister, what should I do when I get to the province?"
Liang Xiangwen fiddled with his phone and said to her without even looking up, "Just sleep in the hotel and don't worry about anything!"
Huh? Wei Minmin's eyes widened in surprise. She thought, I'm so mobile, why are you letting me sleep in a hotel?
Liang Xiangwen didn't intend to let Wei Minmin play any role, but in order to appease Wei Minmin's emotions, he raised his head and smiled gently and said to her, "What I mean is, I will tell you when the situation permits. For the time being, you just stay in the hotel and wait for news."
"Oh..." Wei Minmin nodded reluctantly and agreed.
Arriving at the provincial capital, Liang Xiangwen arranged several rooms in a business hotel next to the provincial party committee. After the three of them were settled, they went their separate ways to make connections.
Liang Xiangwen called Song Siyao in the room and said with a smile, "Director Song? I'm Liang Xiangwen from Pingyang City..."
"Who?" Song Siyao was stunned for a moment when she heard the familiar name. She quickly searched her memory and remembered that he was the Minister of Propaganda of Pingyang City.
The word "who"... almost made Liang Xiangwen lose face. After all, he was a deputy-department-level cadre, but in front of his peers in the province, he had no sense of existence at all.
Fortunately, Song Siyao remembered who he was and quickly said to him, "Oh, Minister Liang, hello, hello, is there anything you want to talk about today?"
Liang Xiangwen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said excitedly, "Hello, Director Song, I'm sorry to bother you at this time. I want to invite you and the leaders of the station to dinner tonight. I wonder if you can come and show up?"
Why eat for no reason? Song Siyao refused without much thought, "Minister Liang, if you have anything to say, just tell me. We still have to work overtime tonight, so let's forget about eating."
The overtime talk was obviously an excuse. Liang Xiangwen knew it all, but he couldn't insist on treating everyone to a meal, so he just said his request, "Director Song, this is what I'm talking about. I'm here because of the negative news about the Pingyang Cotton Mill. I want to see if the impact can be reduced through the station..."
