Li Xiuyuan didn't rush to the meeting room. Zhang Xingguo had announced the meeting, and it would take some time for all the attendees to arrive. He took advantage of this time to grab a bite to eat. As soon as the meeting ended, he would have to go to Meilin Village for another meeting to assign tasks to the town, so he wouldn't have time to eat then.
Li Xiuyuan hurriedly ate a bite of food in the cafeteria. When he arrived at the conference room, almost everyone had already arrived. Zhang Xingguo did not wait for the last person to arrive as usual, but sat in the conference room early to wait.
This is actually a statement. Because it's an ad hoc meeting, there's no fixed time. If you arrive early or late, you can always explain it away. But having the top leader and Party Secretary sitting in the meeting room waiting naturally puts pressure on everyone.
When Zhang Xingguo saw Li Xiuyuan coming over, he nodded slightly to Li Xiuyuan without saying anything. Li Xiuyuan sat down in his seat, and in less than five minutes, almost everyone in the conference room had arrived.
Zhang Xingguo coughed lightly and said, "Close the door. Almost everyone has arrived. Let's not wait any longer and start the meeting now."
The staff closed the front door of the conference room. Anyone with common sense would know to sneak in through the back door so as not to disrupt the meeting.
"Here's the thing, I just received news that County Head Yun Yanchang will be coming to our Meilin Village tomorrow to attend the unveiling ceremony. Deputy Mayor Li, could you please give us a brief introduction?" Zhang Xingguo immediately handed the reins to Li Xiuyuan.
There was nothing that could be done; Yun Yanchang had come specifically for Li Xiuyuan. Li Xiuyuan was also the most familiar with the situation in Meilin Village, so Yun Yanchang's attempts to make a scene were futile.
Li Xiuyuan nodded, and without being polite, adjusted the microphone and slowly said, "The first phase of the Blackwater River dredging project in Meilin Village will be officially completed tomorrow. At the same time, under the leadership of the county and with the efforts of the people of Meilin Village, the Blackwater River has been successfully treated, turning from the original black river water into the clear river water we see today, thus solving the pollution problem that had been left behind."
The river has been renamed Happiness River. Previously, due to the tight schedule of the project, this issue was not considered when erecting the monument. However, today, while working in Meilin Village, I learned that the villagers of Meilin Village strongly desired to hold a monument unveiling ceremony, which would signify that a new chapter has been opened for the Black River in Meilin Village.
Under these circumstances, this morning, on behalf of the people of Meilin Village and our central town, I made an impromptu invitation to County Head Yun Yanchang. County Head Yun took this matter very seriously and agreed.
Li Xiuyuan's words were concise, but they caused a stir in the meeting room. The county magistrate accepted the invitation on short notice. Everyone knew that Li Xiuyuan was able to become the deputy mayor at such a young age because he was Yun Yanchang's secretary. But no one expected that Li Xiuyuan was so well-liked by Yun Yanchang that he was willing to come even with a last-minute invitation.
Li Xiuyuan's last sentence, "temporary invitation," was intentional. He realized that since Li Boyang and Zhang Xingguo had misunderstood each other, he might as well deepen the misunderstanding and use their connections to his advantage.
In Zhongxin Town, I, Li Xiuyuan, am the embodiment of County Magistrate Yun Yanchang; I have powerful backers.
Regardless of what people say behind your back, things will definitely go more smoothly in the future, and the people around you will become more united.
“Okay, then I’ll make arrangements for tomorrow’s unveiling ceremony now…” Zhang Xingguo took over and began to assign tasks. One was the work in the central town. Although Yun Yanchang was here to attend the unveiling ceremony, he might come to the town to check on other work after finishing in Meilin Village. The necessary preparations for this should be made in advance.
No matter how well you do your job, it's useless if the leader doesn't see it; when the leader comes to inspect, if there's any oversight, then all your hard work will be for nothing.
