From the small to the big, we can see that whether a city has a strong sense of happiness and whether it can retain people has little to do with the exaggerated and gratifying numbers in financial reports and statistical reports.
If you pick up an ordinary person on the street and ask him what he thinks about the GDP growth rate not reaching 6.6 this year, he will only think, what does the GDP growth rate of 6.6 have to do with him? He only cares about whether the price of pork has fallen back to 6.6 yuan after the New Year. If the price does not fall, he will not be able to afford pork.
The same goes for this.
When it comes to attracting investment and people, it is one thing, but being able to keep them is another.
If grassroots units cannot even serve the citizens of their own city, how can they talk about serving the public?
Director Xiao is like flicking a worm. Every time the leader points at him, he moves. What's more, his words and actions are completely different. Which leader wouldn't be disheartened by this?
"Let's go," Han Chi didn't want to stay any longer, nor did he want to listen to Director Liu's nonsense, so he got up and started to leave.
Many people behind him didn't react, but they hurried to catch up.
The group didn't get far.
Behind.
Director Xiao came running over breathlessly: "Assistant Han, Assistant Han, I've found out everything. I'll have someone take care of it right away."
Han Chi stopped.
Director Xiao quickly caught up, "Assistant Han, I've asked clearly."
Han Chi: "You don't need to report to me. I'm not your boss and have no right to interfere in your affairs. You should report to your direct supervisor about civil affairs matters."
Director Xiao: “…”
Han Chi couldn't do anything to him at all.
For a moment, Director Xiao couldn't figure out whether Han Chi cared about this matter or not.
They say you shouldn’t try to guess what your leader is thinking, because you’ll never understand it no matter how hard you try.
Director Xiao always felt that he was very good at guessing the leaders' thoughts, but when he met Han Chi, he always felt that he could not keep up with Han Chi's ideas and rhythm.
Director Liu saw that Director Xiao had made a mistake, so he had no choice but to come out and smooth things over: "Director Xiao, please go back first. This mall is the end of our visit. We are in a hurry to get to the next place."
Director Xiao was embarrassed: "But..."
Because they knew that leaders from Shanghai were coming to inspect, the site at No. 034 was originally expected to bring great success to the entire Dongjiang River. It is no exaggeration to say that when the leaders from Shanghai said they were coming to inspect, there was a learning element involved.
As a strong first-tier city, it concentrates the best resources in the country. It is hard not to be outstanding. No matter how good the political achievements are, they are just icing on the cake of the original resources.
Land No. 034 in Dongjiang is different. It has definitely provided timely financial support to Dongjiang. Now its operation is so outstanding, which is icing on the cake after the timely support. Moreover, it is even more valuable in a second-tier city like Dongjiang with a weak presence.
Han Chi came here because, firstly, everyone wanted to see if this project had the potential to be further improved. It would be best if it could be expanded from one point to another, starting from No. 034, radiating to the entire Dongjiang River and even the entire province. Secondly, it was also to show the leaders of the strong first-tier cities that even the weak second-tier cities have their valuable aspects.
But who would have thought that the car would overturn just after bringing the person to the destination.
Instead of showing off, I ended up making a fool of myself.
Director Xiao's style of not asking the masses any questions, and his behavior of not telling the masses face to face when his subordinates have problems, but complaining behind their backs and acting as a troublemaker, truly shows that he has no sense of responsibility as a grassroots staff member.
Originally, Director Xiao was asked to come over just out of courtesy. After all, everyone at Han Chi was here, and since they were all from the same administrative unit and were located in such a special place, it would be a nice conversation to have.
In this situation, it would be difficult to get the job done.

Zhou Mo came back from shopping and accompanied Liu Xia to feed the baby. The child, who was full and satisfied, soon stopped making noise and fell asleep in seconds.
The old lady pulled Liu Xia aside and thanked her repeatedly, "Luckily, you are here, girl."
Liu Xia put on her clothes and said, "It's okay. I'm a mother too. I can't bear to see my child cry. It hurts."
Zhou Mo asked, "When will the child's mother come? Let's go back early after finishing the formalities. Such a young child can't rest well if he stays outside all the time."
The old lady sighed, "If it weren't for buying a house, I wouldn't have gone through so much trouble. My daughter and son-in-law moved several times and lost their marriage certificate. We thought it was useless, so we never got a new one. We thought we would have to wait another two years to buy a house, but who knew we would come across a house for sale so soon? We needed our marriage certificate to complete the paperwork, and the whole family was in a panic."
The experience of the old lady's family is probably a typical example of a family spending all their money and emptying six wallets to buy a house.
My son-in-law works in another city, and my daughter has to find a job before she's breastfeeding, leaving the child to be taken care of by the elderly...
The more Zhou Mo listened to the old lady's family stories, the more he felt afraid of marriage and having children.
Giving birth is never peaceful, and life after giving birth is even more so.
Zhou Mo and Liu Xia waited for a while, and the old lady's daughter finally arrived.
This time the staff was very enthusiastic and took the old lady and her family of three to help them get a new marriage certificate.
Because of this incident, Zhou Mo and Liu Xia were no longer in the mood to go shopping.
This was the first time Liu Xia had been away from Xiaobao for such a long time, and when she saw the child who was about the same age as Xiaobao, she couldn't help but be reminded of the past.
"It's so pitiful for a child without a mother," Liu Xia said. "I want to buy a ticket and return to Dongjiang today."
Zhou Mo was stunned. "My dad and second uncle will probably be able to go back tomorrow. Why can't we wait another day?"
"I can't wait any longer," Liu Xia said. "I feel so bad not being able to see my child."
"I understand," Zhou Mo said, "Shall I take you to the station?"
Liu Xia nodded.
The two of them came out of the mall together and passed by the parking lot in front of Gate No. 1. They saw neat rows of light brown minibuses parked in the spacious parking lot.
The standard pomp and ceremony for a leader going out on an inspection tour.
Zhou Mo was curious, Han Chi hasn't left yet?
Just as I was wondering, a group of people came from the opposite side of the street.
Zhou Mo then realized that Han Chi and his group had gone to the opposite side for a while, and judging from the direction they were heading, they were probably going to Greedy.
The only place here that can park so many such large cars is the parking lot in front of the shopping mall. You can tell from the placement of the roadblocks that the area for parking minibuses has been arranged long ago.
Zhou Mo pushed Liu Xia away in a few steps. She didn't want to meet Han Chi again.
Liu Xia noticed that Zhou Mo was "running away" and asked curiously, "What's wrong? Why are you walking so fast? You don't have to be so anxious to take me to the station, right?"
"No," Zhou Mo glanced behind him and quickened his pace, "The man just now should be Han Chen's third brother Han Chi."
"Which one?" Liu Xia was still kept in the dark.
"The one who leads, the one walking in front."
"You mean to ask about the child?"
"Yes, that's him."
Liu Xia couldn't help laughing at Zhou Mo's embarrassed look. "You're not a thief, why do you act like a thief seeing the police when you see him?"
