I looked at her carefully and saw that her face looked more weathered than two years ago, and the years had left traces of varying degrees on her body. I couldn't help but sigh: "Time flies. It's been almost two years. Brother Kuang, has your mission to aid Xinjiang been successfully completed?"
Kuang Tieying nodded and turned his gaze to Liu Keji, obviously waiting for him to explain the purpose of gathering everyone together. Liu Keji leaned forward slightly, looked at me, and asked, "Hongjun, County Magistrate Tong has discussed with you the personnel arrangements for the development zone, right?"
I also nodded in response: "We just finished talking. I personally do have some reservations about this matter. But County Magistrate Tong said that this is your idea. In this case, I will definitely obey the organization's arrangements unconditionally."
Liu Keji showed a gratified smile on his face: "Our Xiaoguan County Magistrate is still very considerate of the overall situation. In fact, I could have discussed this matter with you in advance, but you always complained that my temple was too small and refused to come and sit with me. Besides, the personnel arrangement of the development zone falls within the scope of government responsibilities. It is not appropriate for me, the county party secretary, to intervene directly. It is more in line with procedures to let County Magistrate Tong talk to you. I knew that you would have some thoughts in your mind about arranging Zhang Weiguo to go to the development zone."
My heart tightened, fearing that Liu Keji would misunderstand me, so I straightened my back and explained sincerely, "Secretary Liu, please don't misunderstand me! How could I dislike your small place? To be honest, I am worried that you are very busy and have to coordinate all the major and minor matters of the county. If I always skip the level to ask you for instructions, others will see it and talk about me behind my back, saying that I don't know the rules, don't follow the procedures, and cause you unnecessary trouble. I have always respected you, how dare I slack off."
Liu Keji's smile deepened, his eyes full of praise, he raised his hand and waved it gently, saying: "I know that our Xiaoguan County Chief has always taken the overall situation into consideration. You had some concerns before, and your thoughts were reasonable. But if the situation is different from the past, you are already a member of the county party committee standing committee. If you have any problems in the future, come directly to me. It is aboveboard and legitimate, and no one else can make any comments."
I nodded, and Wang Yanshu took over the conversation: "County Magistrate Xiaoguan, I have mentioned your idea to Secretary Liu before. But Secretary Liu stands high and sees far. In order to win the city's greater support for the development zone's upgrading, this personnel arrangement is a necessary move." She looked at me with a hint of expectation in her eyes, hoping that I would understand the deep meaning.
Liu Keji crossed his legs, looking relaxed, and agreed: "Secretary Yanshu is right, Hongjun, I hope you understand my good intentions. This is all for the long-term development of the entire county."
I looked sincere, with admiration and respect in my tone: "Secretary Liu, after your explanation, I completely understand. Your strategic plan of using space to exchange time is far-sighted and really impresses me. It is worthy of my study." I bowed slightly to express my inner respect.
Liu Keji shook his head modestly with a kind smile on his face, turned to look at Kuang Tieying, and said with emotion: "Tieying, look, you have only been assisting Xinjiang for less than two years, and our comrade Xiaoguan has grown so much, and now he has accurately summarized his experience. The young are really formidable."
Then, he slowly turned around, his eyes fell on me again, his expression became more serious, and he said earnestly: "Hongjun, the so-called space for time, or space for space, this is really a helpless move. I and the city's Deputy Secretary Xu used to work in the same team in the county, and I know him quite well. He is outstanding, has a wide network of contacts, and has a lot of energy. Especially for Zhang Weiguo, who was cultivated by him, he really loves him very much. , almost treating you as his own son. You have always wanted to promote Zhang Weiguo to the position of deputy county magistrate, but at that time I considered leaving this position to you, and I did not agree. This time, you took a step back and only asked for a deputy position of the Development Zone Management Committee. It is difficult for me to refuse it. "You sighed slightly, revealing a little helplessness in your eyes, and a little consideration of the overall situation.
Kuang Tieying's eyes were deep, as if he saw through all the calculations hidden behind this complicated situation, and he said slowly: "In this case, Deputy Secretary Xu's desire to promote the upgrading of the development zone may be more urgent than ours. After all, only if the development zone is successfully upgraded, Zhang Weiguo will have the opportunity to use this platform to join the ranks of deputy county level. The connection behind this is really one link after another."
Liu Keji heard this, a hint of approval flashed in his eyes, and he nodded with satisfaction: "Tieying, you see it clearly! I have never liked those straightforward and explicit transactions, but in this complex situation, we still have to use the strategy of going with the flow and using the opportunity to defeat the opponent."
Suddenly, I was enlightened and couldn't help but admire from the bottom of my heart: "Secretary Liu, your plan is really far-sighted. I really didn't think about this before, and I was too superficial. In the future, I will have to learn more from you, and I hope you will be generous with your advice."
After hearing this, Liu Keji laughed heartily, his laughter was hearty and full of energy: "You young people have flexible brains and are quick to accept new things. As long as you are willing to learn, you will definitely surpass your teachers in time. Hongjun, it has always been my wish to help you reach your current position and watch you grow step by step. Now that it has been realized, I feel relieved." As he spoke, he slowly looked around his office with a hint of reluctance in his eyes, as if he was saying goodbye to the place where he had worked for many years. "Hongjun, you should learn more from the two secretaries Tieying and Yanshu in the future. They are experienced and are good role models for you."
Liu Keji's words were beyond my expectation. I asked in surprise, "Secretary Liu, are you going to be transferred?" I widened my eyes, my face full of confusion, and a complex emotion surged in my heart.
Wang Yanshu took over the conversation with a hint of respect in his tone: "Secretary Liu will be promoted to vice chairman of the Municipal People's Congress Standing Committee."
Liu Keji waved his hand and said with a smile: "What's the point of promotion? To put it bluntly, it's just a second-tier position, waiting to retire." There was a bit of open-mindedness in his smile, and he seemed to take the job change lightly.
I savored Liu Keji's words, my eyes inadvertently fell on Kuang Tieying, a thought suddenly flashed through my mind, and I instantly understood the deeper meaning. I asked tentatively, "So, Secretary Kuang will take over your position in the county?" I stared at Liu Keji, waiting for his answer.
Liu Keji smiled and nodded, his eyes full of satisfaction: "You kid, your brain is really quick! To be honest, the province has always been very concerned about the cadres who aid Xinjiang and Tibet. Tieying has worked hard in the frontier for so long, and it is reasonable for him to come back to take over my shift."
놛 looked at Kuang Tieying, his eyes full of expectation and trust. Kuang Tieying's eyes were slightly red, and he said with gratitude: "Big brother, it's not reasonable at all. In order to let me take over this position smoothly, you actively asked to step back to the second line. I will never forget this kindness!" His voice trembled slightly, and his heart was moved beyond words.
Hearing what Kuang Tieying said, I was shocked. Only then did I understand that Liu Keji chose to retreat to the second line at the time when Kuang Tieying's aid mission in Xinjiang was completed. There was a deep meaning behind it - he wanted Kuang Tieying to take over his job smoothly with the advantage of being a cadre in aid to Xinjiang, so that Tong Yazhou's idea of going further would fail. At this moment, I finally understood the real meaning of Tong Yazhou's comment that Liu Keji was a "great chess player" in front of me. It is conceivable that when Tong Yazhou heard the news, he felt even more disappointed than when Tian Zhenyu was defeated by me.
