Chapter 930: Even a Mosquito is Meat, No Matter How Small!
Originally scheduled for fifteen minutes, Secretary Guo chatted with Tang Ye for nearly half an hour.
The Secretary reminded him that there was still an itinerary to follow.
Secretary Guo finally stood up and shook hands with Tang Ye.
"Let's stop here for today."
"Your words have benefited me greatly!" Tang Ye said quickly.
Secretary Guo rarely showed such a strong desire to confide in someone.
It was because Tang Ye's thesis had opened the floodgates of his thoughts.
There were many ideas he felt compelled to express.
Tang Ye knew that what Secretary Guo needed was a listener, not an interlocutor.
His own status was not yet qualified for an equal exchange with Secretary Guo.
However, many of Secretary Guo's words made Tang Ye feel a different kind of realm.
Being in different positions, the perspective on viewing problems is different.
For instance, Tang Ye, as an Exchange Cadre, looked at the gains and losses of Dayu County.
But Secretary Guo hoped to use Dayu County, this National-level Poverty-stricken County, as a demonstration window to build a poverty alleviation model project.
Even further.
To use a point to lead the whole area.
To provide a template for promoting the national comprehensive poverty alleviation policy.
Tang Ye felt the pressure!
Secretary Guo really thought highly of him.
However, because of Secretary Guo's guidance, a concept also emerged in Tang Ye's mind.
Since the Provincial Party Committee Secretary had assigned a task, he must strive to approach the goal.
As long as he did things that aligned with his ideas, Secretary Guo would certainly provide support.
The top priority was to get the E-commerce Incubation Base up and running.
Then, use this platform to create a few valuable poverty alleviation cases.
Tang Ye saw Secretary Guo to the door.
Department Head Zhao patted Tang Ye on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Secretary Guo rarely has such a long exchange with a young person alone. That article of yours is well-written; you combined it with your actual work in Dayu County and proposed quite a few ingenious ideas. Although some viewpoints are slightly radical, one sentence left a deep impression on me! Do not treat new business models as enemies; localities must give them sufficient tolerance and enough space."
Tang Ye heard two layers of meaning in Department Head Zhao's words.
First, some viewpoints in his thesis were still too radical.
Second, because he was telling the story of Dayu County, Secretary Guo attached such importance to it.
To put it plainly, this thesis of Tang Ye's had earned enough face for the poverty alleviation work in Shaan Province.
Tang Ye said modestly, "I still have many shortcomings. If there is anything I have done wrong, please point it out at any time, Department Head Zhao, and I will certainly correct it as soon as possible."
Department Head Zhao smiled and patted Tang Ye's shoulder: "You have done very well. Keep it up, and go do it boldly!"
Encouraged by Department Head Zhao, Tang Ye's heart was also filled with confidence.
Although officialdom has always emphasized connections, if you achieve solid political achievements, you will still attract the high attention of leaders.
……
Arriving at the first floor of the hotel.
Cai Zhengqing was sitting in the coffee area waiting for Tang Ye, and seeing him come down, he stood up and walked over to greet him.
"Let's go, let's go get something to eat together."
Tang Ye thought to himself that Cai Zhengqing was "clinging" to him.
However, this was also within reason.
When you show a sufficiently excellent side, naturally someone will take the initiative to gravitate toward you.
At such times, one must observe carefully to see if the other party harbors any ill intentions.
After interacting with Cai Zhengqing, Tang Ye found that he did not have any bad intentions.
This person possessed a sense of aloofness in his bones and was unwilling to collude with the likes of Wang Chunyu, which was why he took the initiative to approach him.
After the two were seated, they happened to see Wang Chunyu sitting on the other side with a few people.
Cai Zhengqing sighed, "It seems we two have been isolated."
Tang Ye joked, "I have always been a 'loner,' and now I have implicated Brother Cai."
Cai Zhengqing curled his lips in disdain: "Wang Chunyu is just a despicable person; I saw through him long ago."
Tang Ye smiled; he knew there was bad blood between Cai Zhengqing and Wang Chunyu.
The areas under their jurisdiction bordered each other, and they had originally planned to join forces to promote a Photovoltaic Project.
Unexpectedly, Wang Chunyu changed his mind at the critical moment and swallowed the project alone, leaving Cai Zhengqing with nothing, which made him hold a grudge.
As for Cai Zhengqing taking the initiative to move closer to him, it was mostly due to this experience of being backstabbed.
After the meal, Tang Ye returned to his room to rest for a while, then went downstairs around two in the afternoon to take a Coaster with the others to visit the Xijing Electronic Technology Park.
Tang Ye attached great importance to this visit; many people felt that such activities were just a cursory glance, but he believed there was great learning value in it, as it allowed one to intuitively understand the latest progress in current technological development.
Those in politics must always maintain a state of lifelong learning.
During this time, Tang Ye took the initiative to ask the enterprise heads at the technology park for their contact information; these were rare and valuable resources for the future.
In the evening, the technology park arranged a working dinner, and after the meal, everyone went to the Provincial Grand Theater to watch a cultural performance.
Tang Ye and his group of Exchange Cadres sat together, and from time to time, comments from those around them reached their ears, with their words full of heartfelt admiration for the actresses of the Provincial Song and Dance Troupe.
Tang Ye had extremely strong focus and did not have too many thoughts about this.
After the cultural performance ended, Cai Zhengqing received a phone call and then said to Tang Ye: "If you don't have other plans later, how about coming with me to meet someone?"
Tang Ye asked curiously, "Who is it?"
Cai Zhengqing smiled and said, "My cousin, he works at the Shaan Province Development and Reform Commission."
Upon hearing that the other party worked at the Provincial Development and Reform Commission, Tang Ye instantly became interested: "Great, we can talk about combining camellia oil with E-commerce. If the Development and Reform Commission has suitable policies, we can try to secure them."
Cai Zhengqing was stunned for a moment, then laughed in spite of himself: "You, you can't go three sentences without talking about your old trade; you really are a true workaholic!"
Half an hour later, Tang Ye met Cai Zhengqing's cousin, Geng Yong, at a hot spring teahouse.
This was a semi-open-air teahouse.
The garden was dotted with rockeries, bonsai, and flowing water; the environment was very elegant.
The three of them ordered a pot of Tieguanyin tea and sipped it slowly.
After chatting for a while, the topic naturally turned to work.
Cai Zhengqing spoke first: "We plan to launch a promotional model combining camellia oil with E-commerce next year to push camellia oil out via the internet, but we currently lack startup capital. We wanted to ask if the Provincial Development and Reform Commission has any suitable guidance funds available?"
Geng Yong nodded and said, "There are a few policies that fit the project. I'll have someone find the relevant documents for you to look at later, but I'll say the ugly part upfront: the funding amount isn't very large!"
Tang Ye quickly said, "Even a mosquito is meat no matter how small; I ask Director Geng to please put in the effort."
Geng Yong smiled and replied, "I will certainly go all out for your matters."
Just as they were chatting, a burst of laughter came from below the teahouse.
They saw several women walking up while talking and laughing.
Cai Zhengqing's gaze subconsciously shifted over, and he said softly, "It's actually the actresses from the Song and Dance Troupe."
