Chapter 941: A Crucial Opportunity for Exposure!
Xing Zhijun is a notoriously "henpecked husband"……
Seeing his wife Yao Lan appear, Xing Zhijun knew he couldn't continue drinking today, so he stood up to bid farewell and left.
Yao Lan and Xing Zhijun are on their way home.
Yao Lan couldn't help but say: "You too, who doesn't know that Secretary Tang has a bottomless capacity for liquor? Isn't drinking with him just asking for trouble?"
Xing Zhijun shook his head and sighed with emotion: "You don't understand my feelings. I am especially happy today, I want to get dead drunk!"
Yao Lan was between laughter and tears: "Tell me about it."
Xing Zhijun said in a deep voice: "Dayu County has worn the label of a poverty-stricken county for so many years, and now we finally have a chance to take it off. Many places rack their brains and try every means to fight for the label of a poverty-stricken county, but Dayu County truly doesn't want this label—because we are truly poor! Now there is finally hope! The Provincial Party Secretary came today and gave high recognition to our poverty alleviation work. It is expected that within ten, no, five years, Dayu County will definitely have earth-shaking changes! All of this is the change brought about by Secretary Tang!"
With the light hitting Xing Zhijun's face, Yao Lan suddenly discovered that her husband's eye sockets were red, and he had actually shed tears.
Having known each other for so many years, this was the first time she had seen her husband lose control of his emotions.
A tough man sheds tears only because he has touched the softest part of his heart!
……
Huang Sitian is watching the news with her aunt Huang He.
After Huang Sitian returned to the Provincial Capital, she was arranged to work at the Provincial Education Department.
When Tang Ye's footage suddenly appeared on the television screen, Huang Sitian's pupils dilated sharply: "Isn't this Tang Ye?"
"It is indeed Tang Ye! I didn't expect Secretary Guo to go to Dayu County in person! But this is also within reason; the Provincial Party Secretary visiting Dayu County to offer condolences is a clear signal—next year, Dayu County will definitely be able to obtain quite a bit of policy support!" Huang He analyzed.
"That's great! Aunt, I actually have always had a premonition that Dayu County would definitely be able to get better." Huang Sitian's tone could not hide her excitement.
"Mm, Tang Ye played a key role in it."
Huang Sitian nodded slightly and smiled: "It's really not easy to be recognized by you! Tang Ye has actually had a very difficult time in Dayu County these past six months."
Combining what she had seen and heard, Huang Sitian described Tang Ye's work content over the past six months one by one
——from secret investigations and research to solving practical livelihood issues……
from purging corrupt elements to cracking down on organized crime and rectifying social atmosphere……
from emergency rescue and disaster relief to revitalizing the economic structure and introducing brand-new county-level revitalization concepts……
Through her niece's narration, Huang He also gained a brand-new understanding of Tang Ye.
……
After Xing Zhijun left.
Tang Ye opened his laptop and sent a video request.
Soon, Du Xi answered.
Du Xi was wearing black-rimmed glasses and a pink pajama set.
Besides Du Xi, her mother Xiao Qin was also by her side.
"Mom, good evening!"
Xiao Qin said with a smile: "When are you coming back for the Spring Festival?"
Tang Ye replied: "I have already bought the plane ticket, leaving on New Year's Eve, striving to make it back in time for the reunion dinner."
Xiao Qin said: "I have communicated with your mother; last year we spent the New Year at your house, this year we will spend it at our house."
Tang Ye said very obediently: "It's the same for Du Xi and me wherever we spend the New Year; anyway, we're just bringing our mouths to eat, you two just go ahead and arrange it."
At this moment, another face suddenly appeared in front of the screen, and Du Chengfeng also leaned over.
Tang Ye hurriedly greeted him with a smile: "Dad, you're here too, good evening."
Du Chengfeng nodded slightly: "Today, Shaanxi Television Station publicized Dayu County's poverty alleviation work. This is recognition of you; you have basically completed the task. However, don't be arrogant; the exchange has only been going on for over half a year, and the subsequent work must still be completed without any compromise."
Tang Ye knew that Du Chengfeng seemed to be reminding him, but in fact, he was also recognizing him in a roundabout way.
"Dad, don't worry, I will guard against arrogance and impetuosity!"
Du Chengfeng gave Xiao Qin a wink.
Xiao Qin realized and wanted to give the young couple some private space, so she smiled: "Your dad's waist hurts, I'm going to give him a massage, you two chat!"
After saying this, Du Chengfeng and Xiao Qin left the room and closed the door.
Xiao Qin noticed that Du Chengfeng sighed very slightly and asked: "What's wrong?"
Du Chengfeng smiled: "Nothing."
Xiao Qin anxiously pressed: "There must be something you're hiding from me!"
Du Chengfeng said: "The poverty alleviation work was done excellently, stamping a very special label on Tang Ye; for his political career, this is a unique core competitiveness. However, at the same time, he will be entrusted with more responsibilities in the future."
Xiao Qin understood what Du Chengfeng meant.
If nothing unexpected happens, Tang Ye will very likely be used as a firefighter.
In the future, he will definitely need to invest a lot of energy into his work, and the time spent on his personal life will definitely be reduced.
He might be promoted to an important position, and his official career will be very smooth.
This is not a good thing for Du Xi.
"Du Xi will understand and support Tang Ye." Xiao Qin said very confidently.
……
The next morning, Tang Ye received a text message from Li Youyou: "Saw today's 'Shaanxi Daily', it has photos of you and Secretary Guo, you are very photogenic!"
Tang Ye replied politely: "Thank you!"
Seeing the short reply, Li Youyou was between laughter and tears, thinking to herself: I originally thought Tang Ye was very interesting, but I didn't expect chatting with him to be so dry; one careless move and the conversation could be killed off.
She then sent another text: "This report is still very valuable. Troupe Leader Xue has already taken the newspaper to the Provincial Party Committee Propaganda Department. The project application submitted previously did not receive a reply from the Propaganda Department. However, with this news, the chances of success should be very high."
Seeing the content of the text, Tang Ye was a bit surprised and replied: "I will communicate with the Yanzhou Municipal Party Committee here; it should have a good effect. Thank you, Teacher Li, for informing me in time."
A smile appeared on the corner of Li Youyou's mouth, and she muttered to herself: "It seems he's not incapable of typing; as soon as work is mentioned, he immediately gets interested. A total workaholic."
Li Youyou kept an eye on Xue Ying's office, and in the afternoon, Xue Ying returned from the Provincial Party Committee Compound.
Li Youyou hurriedly knocked open the door: "Troupe Leader Xue, did it go smoothly?"
Xue Ying took out the documents and handed them to Li Youyou, unable to hide the smile at the corners of her mouth: "The Propaganda Department not only agreed, but also plans to make this art performance a big event, approving a budget of five million! They also requested that provincial-level media provide full-scale cooperation."
A look of surprise appeared in Li Youyou's eyes: "That's wonderful!"
Xue Ying restrained her smile: "You need to reduce your workload at the main stage recently. Practice your dancing well and focus your energy on this performance!"
For her, opportunities to participate in large-scale art gala stages were actually not many.
This was an important opportunity for exposure.
Li Youyou nodded slightly: "Rest assured, I will start extra training from tomorrow and guarantee the completion of this mission!"
