Municipal Party Committee.
Qian Lingyun's office.
Liu Yong sat upright on the sofa.
He looked at Qian Lingyun behind the desk with a smile on his face, full of anticipation.
The provincial two sessions have concluded, and the city is organizing the convening of the two sessions.
Liu Yong had long coveted the position of deputy director of the Municipal People's Congress. He had mentioned this idea more than once when Peng Yutao was in power, but for some reason, Peng Yutao always managed to evade him with various excuses. Year after year, he never got what he wanted. Because of this, Liu Yong had no good feelings towards Peng Yutao, and could even say that he disliked and hated him!
He has been in the position of director for a total of twelve years, from county magistrate to county party secretary, and has been in two counties. Over the past decade, he has been conscientious and has not made any great achievements, but he has not made any major mistakes either. Among all the county party secretaries in Pingyang, he has the longest seniority, so it stands to reason that it is his turn to be promoted!
But Peng Yutao refused to promote him. He had to watch helplessly as people with less experience than him took up the position of deputy director. He was jealous and itchy, but he could do nothing about it!
That day, he learned that Peng Yutao had been arrested. He was so happy that he even opened a bottle of 20-year-old wine and drank half a catty of it alone to celebrate.
In his heart, Peng Yutao is the stumbling block on his road to promotion. As long as Peng Yutao is the secretary of the Pingyang Municipal Party Committee, Liu Yong will never be able to climb up even a single step!
Finally, Peng Yutao left and Qian Lingyun came!
Qian Lingyun came with his hope of promotion!
During Qian Lingyun's tenure as mayor, no one was optimistic about him, but Liu Yong took a gamble and placed a heavy bet on Qian Lingyun, betting that he could stand firm and replace Peng Yutao to stand at the top of Pingyang in the future!
Since he couldn't rely on Peng Yutao, he had to find another way.
The final result was that he made the right bet.
Not only that, because of Li Lin, Liu Yong and Qian Lingyun have a good relationship.
Just before Li Lin went to Shannan County to serve as the county magistrate, Qian Lingyun took the initiative to talk to him, promised him the position of deputy director of the Municipal People's Congress, and asked him to assist Li Lin well.
Today, he wanted to discuss this matter with Qian Lingyun to see if there were any omissions and whether he needed to smooth things over with the National People's Congress.
Sitting opposite Qian Lingyun, watching Qian Lingyun carefully reviewing the documents in his hand, until Qian Lingyun put down his pen and looked up at him, he smiled and said, "Secretary Qian, are you done?"
Qian Lingyun nodded and said, "Well, it's just after the New Year, and there's a backlog of work. I just finished processing it. Are you anxious waiting?"
Liu Yong smiled and waved his hand, saying, "No, your work is more important, it won't be a problem if I wait a little longer."
Qian Lingyun smiled and said, "I want to ask you about your position as deputy director of the National People's Congress, right?"
Liu Yong laughed, nodded shyly, and said, "Yes, I will reach the age limit in two years. If I can't bring it up this time, I will definitely not have this opportunity in the future. So, I have the audacity to come to see Secretary Qian and listen to your opinions."
Qian Lingyun lit a cigarette and threw one to Liu Yong.
Liu Yong hurriedly took out a lighter from his pocket and went up to Qian Lingyun to light the fire for him.
He bowed in front of Qian Lingyun and was very attentive.
Lighting up his cigarette, Qian Lingyun took a puff and said jokingly, "Are you worried that I won't keep my word? Did you come over to confirm?"
Liu Yong was terrified and quickly explained, "No... that's not what I meant. I know Secretary Qian has been helping me with this matter, and I just wanted to ask if there is anything I need to go to personally. After all, I'm afraid people will gossip about you because you've always been the one to show up."
"If you are upright, what are you afraid of?" Qian Lingyun said nonchalantly, smoking a cigarette leisurely. "I am the secretary of the municipal party committee. Am I not qualified to nominate a candidate for deputy director of the People's Congress? Liu Yong has done a good job in the county over the years. Both your qualifications and achievements are obvious to all. I am confident in speaking for you. If you are not a qualified candidate, I will not nominate you even if you say something wonderful."
"Yes, yes, we are upright and no one can say we are wrong... Secretary Qian, I, Liu Yong, am really lucky to be able to follow such a wise leader like you. If I were not old, I would really like to work with you for a few more years." Liu Yong was deeply moved and his eyes were slightly red. He had been the top leader of the county for so many years, and he had served two municipal party secretaries. None of them had put themselves in Liu Yong's shoes like Qian Lingyun did, and none of them had praised him for his good work in front of Liu Yong.
Changing the subject, Qian Lingyun suddenly asked, "Old Liu, you have to take care of the county's People's Congress elections as well. Li Lin is about to be promoted, so don't let anything unexpected happen!"
Liu Yong nodded and said, "Secretary Qian, rest assured. I have already communicated with the county people's congress, and the deputies have done their job well. There will be no mistakes."
Qian Lingyun nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's good. Xiaolin has little experience after all, and he was promoted so quickly. I'm afraid someone will make a fuss about this. I don't want Xiaolin to be tricked in the election, so as not to affect his future career."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yong secretly felt moved. Secretary Qian treated Li Lin even better than his own son. He considered Li Lin so much in both big and small matters. If the two people did not have the same surname, he would really doubt whether Li Lin was his biological son.
While Qian Lingyun was talking, Liu Yong smiled and said, "Secretary, do you think it is necessary for me to go to the Municipal People's Congress? I want to be elected as the deputy director of the People's Congress. If I don't show up, will Director Tian think that I am ignorant?"
Qian Lingyun nodded after a moment's hesitation. As the municipal party secretary, he holds absolute power, but if he blindly uses his power to oppress others, it is indeed a bit inhumane. After all, Tian Hetai, the director of the People's Congress, is also a department-level cadre with high prestige in Pingyang City. Although Tian Hetai showed support for Liu Yong's appointment as the deputy director of the People's Congress, people's hearts are hidden. What if he does not follow Qian Lingyun's advice, or pretends to obey but disobeys, and when the time comes for the vote, Liu Yong is not elected unanimously, or loses by one vote, then he, the person who recommended him, will also be embarrassed.
