Tao Anzhi sighed helplessly, and said with some regret, "Hey! Lingyun, why do you want to belittle yourself? Where is your courageous and hardworking spirit gone?"
Qian Lingyun said, "Mr. Tao, compared with my competitors, I don't have the slightest advantage with my qualifications. Mr. Tao, you have to find a way to help me!"
In fact, ever since Qian Lingyun came in, Tao Anzhi had already anticipated that he came for this matter.
Because Qian Lingyun had just come not long ago, he put down the duck eggs, chatted for a few minutes and then left.
How many days had passed? And he just learned that the provincial party committee was selecting a candidate for mayor of Pingyang.
The timing was too clever.
Judging from Qian Lingyun's voice, it seemed that he had already known the news.
But he hid it so well that it seemed as if he had just heard about it.
Help? How? He can only use his old face to rub it!
As for how effective it is, it is unknown!
Tao Anzhi smiled and said, "Of course I will help you with your problem! But you can't put all your hopes on an old man like me.
You know, I've retired, and I only have this little bit of face left. I don't know if it's worth the money. You must have an idea in your mind."
Qian Lingyun was very excited when he heard Tao Anzhi agreed to help.
He knew that Tao Anzhi was being modest. As long as he could agree to intercede for him in front of the provincial leaders, it would be a great help to him!
At least, those provincial leaders knew that Qian Lingyun was not a "three-no" cadre with no one to manage him, no one to ask him about, and no one to rely on!
As a result, provincial leaders will have differences on whether to use Qian Lingyun!
Once the discussion starts around him, he will officially enter the provincial leaders' sight.
This is the first successful step!
"Mr. Tao, how could I not know your concern for me? Without your strong support over the years, I, Qian Lingyun, would not have been able to stand in the main hall so smoothly."
"Please don't feel any psychological pressure. As long as you are willing to help me, this is the greatest help to me! Thank you, old leader!"
Qian Lingyun stood up excitedly and expressed his gratitude to Tao Anzhi respectfully.
Tao Anzhi was also very pleased. He liked people who knew how to be grateful. He would feel a sense of accomplishment when he helped such people.
He smiled and nodded, and finally encouraged Qian Lingyun, "Lingyun, go for it, I will always be your solid backer!"
Coming out of Taoan's house.
Qian Lingyun just felt relaxed all over.
There was an unprecedented joy in my heart.
After regaining his composure, he thought that he should strike while the iron was hot and say hello to another old leader, former Vice Governor Kong Yucheng.
After Kong Yucheng retired, he did not settle in Hanjiang, but in Yanjing.
But his influence in Han River is still not small!
Therefore, for Qian Lingyun, this is also a force that cannot be ignored.
If you can’t go home, then make a phone call, talk to him, and listen to Mr. Kong’s advice!
He took out his cell phone without hesitation and called Kong Yucheng.
"Hello, old leader. I am Ling Yun."
"Lingyun? Long time no see, how are you doing recently?"
"Old leader, I should have visited you a long time ago, but I never did. Please forgive me for being impolite!"
"No way, you have work to do, how can you have so much free time to come to Yanjing to see an old man like me!"
Qian Lingyun smiled awkwardly. He felt that Kong Yucheng was complaining about him not visiting him for so long...
"Old leader, I called you because I missed you. Knowing that you are doing well, I feel relieved!"
Unable to give a direct answer, he had to avoid the question. Qian Lingyun really didn't know how to ask him for help next.
Kong Yucheng had actually guessed that Qian Lingyun must have something to say when he called, so after a few pleasantries, he asked him directly, "Lingyun, what's the matter? Just tell me. As long as an old man like me can still help, I will definitely not sit idly by!"
Qian Lingyun was deeply moved.
He had served Kong Yucheng for the longest time, so the relationship between the two was naturally deep. Even after not seeing each other for a long time, their feelings remained strong.
"Old leader, let me be frank. I heard that the provincial party committee is going to recruit someone in the next two days. I want to compete for the position of mayor of Pingyang City..."
Qian Lingyun briefly described the current situation.
There was no sound from Kong Yucheng on the other end of the line.
After a long pause, Kong Yucheng groaned, "This is a good thing! You should have started to move a long time ago! How can you stay in the National People's Congress and read newspapers all day long at such a young age?"
When Qian Lingyun heard Kong Yucheng say this, he felt very encouraged and clenched his fists excitedly.
Then, Kong Yucheng said, "It's not convenient to talk about this kind of thing over the phone. Secretary Wang is likely to come to Yanjing in the next two days. I will meet with him then and tell him your thoughts."
"Let me test his attitude first. If there is a chance, let's try and seize it. Is that ok?"
Kong Yucheng was a straightforward person. He never laughed it off when someone asked him to do something, and he would say whatever he thought.
His suggestion was exactly what Qian Lingyun had in mind. As long as he found out Secretary Wang's true intentions first, he could know what to do next and how to do it, and then he could prescribe the right remedy!
Otherwise, you will try to grab the eyebrows and beard at once, and end up with nothing!
It's not worth it to use so many connections only to end up as a runner-up. It will make people laugh at you!
"Okay, old leader, I'll be waiting for your good news!"
"Well, that's it. I'll let you know as soon as there's any news!"
After hanging up the phone, Qian Lingyun couldn't calm down for a long time.
He expressed his gratitude to the two old leaders for their unremitting help.
I also regret that I did not maintain a solid relationship with the two old leaders in the past two years.
He just sends some salted duck eggs every few days...Speaking of which, he can be considered a breath of fresh air in the political circle!
Thinking about it now, it’s ridiculous!
Qian Lingyun shook his head in self-mockery and called Li Lin again.
"Xiao Lin, have Mr. Sun and the others made an appointment?"
Li Lin said calmly, "We have an appointment. It's 5pm at Hanjiang Dongsheng Hotel."
Originally, it was Qian Lingyun who arranged the place for dinner, but it seems that he was not thoughtful enough.
Sun Huaide is the big boss of Dongsheng Group, so of course he has to go to Dongsheng Hotel for dinner.
Besides, only in Dongsheng’s own territory can one speak freely without any scruples!
Qian Lingyun nodded firmly.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Xiaolin, see you later!"
