Chapter 2718: Inspecting Work
On Friday, after lunch, Zhao Desan came to the office and just sat down when he received a call from District Mayor Wu. On the phone, Wu Min told him that Secretary Jin and Deputy Secretary Su and others would come to the district to inspect and guide work in the afternoon. As the top priority of the district's work, the various construction projects in the district would definitely be asked about, so Zhao Desan was asked to make preparations in advance. Learning that Su Qing was coming to the district, Zhao Desan's first reaction was very excited, a bit overjoyed. People are like this. When they are together, they don't feel how good they are to each other, but once they leave, they will miss them. After all, he lived with Su Qing for two years. Even if two people without feelings are together, they will develop feelings over time, not to mention that Zhao Desan was attracted by Su Qing's temperament and appearance at that time. Without feelings, it would be impossible. When he left her to come to the district, Zhao Desan always felt that he was liberated, and he didn't have to listen to Su Qing telling him those big truths every night. But he hadn't seen her for such a long time, and when he heard that she was coming to the district, Zhao Desan's heart was full of expectations, wishing he could see her now. At this moment, after receiving the notice, while arranging for Tong Xiaoli to organize the report materials that needed to be prepared, his mind was recalling the bits and pieces of the two years he lived with Su Qing, which suddenly gave him a feeling of loss. During the two years he was with her, Zhao Desan felt that he was like a child. Once he was wronged, she would always be the first to stand up to comfort him and maintain him. Every day after work, she would work hard to cook for him. But now, where could he enjoy such treatment? Now it was only his turn to cook for District Mayor Wu. Such a sharp contrast made Zhao Desan look forward to reuniting with Su Qing very much. Even though he knew that he, who was working in the district, could not meet Su Qing every day as before, this time, Zhao Desan was extremely looking forward to it. It was a mood that could not be described in words, and even his heart was beating faster.
Tong Xiaoli, who was helping him organize the report materials, saw Zhao Desan sitting at the desk, looking a bit absent-minded, and couldn't help but say curiously: "Director Liu, what are you thinking about? Why do you look absent-minded?"
"Oh, nothing." Zhao Desan came back to his senses and said with a grin.
Tong Xiaoli looked at him with a strange look and guessed: "Is it because Provincial Party Secretary Jin is coming down to inspect the work, and you are a bit worried?"
"I am a little nervous." Zhao Desan said noncommittally. After all, since he came to the district to take over the work of the Construction Committee, the leaders above hadn't come down yet. Although the various construction works in the district were in full swing, he had no idea whether the development situation would satisfy the leaders. However, his thinking was not about worrying about this.
Tong Xiaoli comforted him and said: "What's there to be nervous about? Director Liu, to tell you the truth, in the few months you came to the district, the work situation has indeed improved a lot. Your achievements are seen by everyone. Not only are the people in our unit more and more convinced of you now, but even the leaders in the district who originally had prejudices against you are a bit impressed by your ability. Actually, how should I say it? Take me for example. To tell you the truth, although I haven't worked here for a long time, when I heard that the person who came to the Construction Committee to take over the director's work was a young guy, I despised him in my heart, thinking that you must be a second-generation official, otherwise how could you be promoted so fast? Being so young, you definitely couldn't do the work well. But soon I changed my view, because your management methods and work ability made me admire you very much. Although you are very strict and harsh on the people below at work, in your spare time, you are very approachable, have no airs at all, and like to joke with people. If it were another leader, where would I dare to joke with others? So don't be nervous, your achievements are seen by everyone."
Zhao Desan didn't expect Tong Xiaoli to say such words of praise to comfort him today. Although he didn't know whether it was from her heart or just to comfort him, it made him feel a kind of understanding warmth, at least it showed that someone in the unit understood him in the few months he came to the district, which showed that his work was not bad. Thinking like this, he cheered himself up.
An hour later, District Mayor Wu's call came, saying that Secretary Jin and Deputy Secretary Su and their party had arrived, asking him to go to the District Committee to have a short meeting before going to the scene to turn around. Encouraged by Tong Xiaoli, Zhao Desan brought the prepared report materials and headed to the District Committee with confidence.
In the District Committee office, it was already full of high officials. The provincial leaders headed by Secretary Jin were arranged from the middle of the conference table to both sides according to the size of their power. Even District Mayor Wu was sitting at the end of the desk. Seeing this posture, Zhao Desan knew that the inspection team from the province today was very powerful. Walking into the conference room, he found Su Qing sitting beside Secretary Jin at a glance. Su Qing also saw him and smiled at him slightly. The two looked at each other for a second, and Zhao Desan hurriedly found an empty seat and sat down.
Deputy Secretary of the District Committee and Deputy District Mayor Liu Deliang happened to be sitting beside Zhao Desan. Seeing Zhao Desan sit down, he whispered to him: "Director Liu, look at the powerful lineup of the province today. You will definitely be asked some questions later. Perform well, don't lose face for our district." Since Zhao Desan visited Liu Deliang in person once, this guy's attitude toward Zhao Desan changed.
Zhao Desan nodded with a smile. Although he was still a little nervous in his heart, Zhao Desan had an advantage, that is, he was never stage-frightened. No matter how big the occasion, he spoke loudly and talked eloquently, giving people a good feeling. He was a material for being an official.
Seeing that everyone who should come had arrived, Tong Lan cleared her throat, smiled, and said: "Today, Provincial Party Secretary Jin brought provincial leaders to the district to inspect and guide work. Let's express a warm welcome." As she spoke, she took the lead in clapping, and other leaders in the district followed suit. For a time, there was thunderous applause in the conference room, and the atmosphere was warm.
Secretary Jin pressed his hands down, signaling that the applause could stop here. So, the conference room soon became quiet again. Secretary Jin put his hands together on the table, brewed for a few seconds, and said gently: "Recently, the work in the province is too busy. According to the overall planning of the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government, the work in the district this year is the top priority of the work plan in the province. I should have come down to see it earlier, but I couldn't spare time. I waited until today to be able to spare some time, so I brought relevant leaders of the Provincial Party Committee down to just take a look, see the development situation in the district during this period, and listen to what difficulties the relevant leaders in the district headed by Secretary Wu have in their work, and what needs to be solved by the city and the province." Speaking of this, Secretary Jin moved his gaze to Wu Min not far away and said gently: "Secretary Wu, let's start with you..."
Wu Min nodded with a smile and began to speak. Wu Min's speech was very short, and she finished it in less than five minutes, leaving the remaining details to other leaders in charge in the district.
Before long, it was Zhao Desan's turn to report the current work situation of the District Construction Committee. Secretary Jin had contacted Zhao Desan once before. When it was his turn to report work, he nodded to him with a kind smile. And Su Qing beside Secretary Jin also looked at him with an expectant look, full of expectations for his work report. Wu Min was a little nervous in her heart. After all, the work of the Construction Committee was particularly important in the district, and there must be no mistakes in the work report.
Zhao Desan didn't live up to expectations. With full preparations, after nodding, he began to make a generous and impassioned report. Such performance made everyone present secretly admire him. Wu Min's expression relaxed, a smile appeared on Su Qing's face, and even a smile appeared on Secretary Jin's face. ===== CHAPTER 2719 =====
