From now on, anyone who comes to the banks of the Happiness River will see the name Yun Yanchang; this is Yun Yanchang's achievement.
"Xiuyuan, that's a bit too blunt. We should focus on the fact that the masses are creating a happy life." Yun Yanchang's face was full of smiles, but his words carried a hint of humility as he pretended to reprimand Li Xiuyuan.
However, everyone around could see that this was not a reprimand, but a blatant compliment.
Zhang Xingguo, Hou Peng, and the others exchanged glances, all thinking the same thing: no wonder Yun Yanchang admired and valued Li Xiuyuan so much. Today, Li Xiuyuan had taught them, these old hands who had been immersed in the system for decades, a lesson in how to curry favor with leaders in such a novel way.
Most people would think that after the Blackwater River was dredged, it would be restored to its original name, Baishijian (White Stone Ravine). But Li Xiuyuan went so far as to ask his superiors for permission to name it, which suggests he flattered them to an unknown extent.
Of course, Li Xiuyuan wasn't the only one who could do this; some people who were good at flattery and bootlicking could also do it.
But Li Xiuyuan was able to make a fuss about what was behind the stone tablet, which is something that not just anyone could do.
“Yun County, as it says on the inscription, the Happiness River was certainly created by the people, but it was also completed under the leadership of County Head Yun and the county government leadership team headed by you. This fact cannot be ignored. This is what I think: since this is to be engraved on the back of the stone tablet, it must be truthful and based on facts.” Li Xiuyuan said with a serious and earnest expression.
Anyone who didn't know better would think Li Xiuyuan was a very upright and righteous person.
Zhang Xingguo listened from the side and couldn't help but twitch his lips. He just couldn't understand where Li Xiuyuan, at such a young age, had learned all these things, and how he could say such things without blushing or skipping a beat.
What was clearly currying favor with the leader and flattering him was transformed by Li Xiuyuan into remembering history and seeking truth from facts.
Damn it, is this how college students are supposed to use the knowledge they learn in school?
Lu Zhenhai didn't get too close, but he overheard the conversation between Li Xiuyuan and Yun Yanchang. He was filled with emotion, thinking that if he had Li Xiuyuan's abilities, he wouldn't even be able to hold down the position of deputy secretary of the town party committee, let alone deputy secretary of the county party committee.
He had met his young son-in-law, Wang Zhitao, a few times and felt that the boy was not bad. He knew a bit about interpersonal relationships and was quite eloquent, but compared to Li Xiuyuan, he was really nothing.
Are the two offices so tightly knit now? He remembered that when he was in the county party committee office, there was no one like Li Xiuyuan in either the county party committee office or the county government office. Young people these days are really something.
"Haha, Xiuyuan, you can go now." Yun Yanchang turned and walked towards the podium, not wanting to spoil the mood by continuing to ask questions. In fact, Li Xiuyuan deserves some credit for the current state of Happiness River, but the higher-ups never mention it. For Li Xiuyuan, his contributions don't need to be engraved on a stone tablet; it's enough that the leaders remember them.
Next is the interactive session, which consists of three parts. The first part is a speech by a village representative, Zhou Jianzhong, the village party secretary and acting village director. The second part is a speech by the county head and a village representative.
For this position, Li Xiuyuan chose Shi Yufei.
Finally, the reporter interviewed the villagers. The interviewees were strictly divided into village officials and veteran Party members.
As for ordinary villagers, forget about it; they lack political awareness. Let those with sufficient political awareness represent them.
