Chapter 2823

Wang Guoxiong was a middle-aged cadre in his early fifties; speaking of which, he also had to thank Su Xinghui. He was originally the Secretary of the Dayuan Municipal Party Committee under Yanbei Province, and it was precisely because of the political storm Su Xinghui stirred up in Yanbei Province that several big radishes fell, vacating several deputy provincial-level positions.

After a round of games and competition for these radish pits, the radishes behind moved to the front, and finally, Wang Guoxiong obtained the position of Vice Governor for Culture and Education.

Investigating the reason, it was precisely because of Su Xinghui that Wang Guoxiong was able to obtain this opportunity.

Although Wang Guoxiong wouldn't be naive enough to think that Su Xinghui was his benefactor, subconsciously, Wang Guoxiong still had a little bit of good feeling towards Su Xinghui.

In addition, Wang Guoxiong also knew that Su Xinghui's background was incomparably strong, so he was still very polite to Su Xinghui.

Wang Guoxiong sat opposite Su Xinghui on the guest sofa, took out a box of special supply cigarettes, pulled one out, and made a gesture to throw it to Su Xinghui, but Su Xinghui hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Thank you, Vice Governor Wang, but I don't smoke."

Wang Guoxiong said, "It's rare to see leading cadres who don't smoke now, but this is a good thing. I actually don't smoke much either; sometimes for social engagements, there's no way around it."

Su Xinghui said, "I'm allergic to smoke, so I can't smoke. Vice Governor Wang, please go ahead."

Although Su Xinghui let Wang Guoxiong go ahead, Wang Guoxiong still put the cigarettes on the coffee table and said, "Forget it, it's rare to meet someone who doesn't smoke, so I won't smoke either."

Su Xinghui smiled.

Wang Guoxiong said, "Comrade Xinghui, this is our first meeting. I'll treat you to a meal at noon; my work still needs support from you mayors in charge."

Su Xinghui nodded and said, "Then thank you, Vice Governor Wang."

Wang Guoxiong waved his hand and said, "This is as it should be; it's just a working meal, and no one can carry a pot on their back when on a business trip."

Su Xinghui smiled and nodded again.

Wang Guoxiong said, "Comrade Xinghui, in the heavy snow in your Baozhou City this winter, there wasn't a single casualty incident due to school building collapse, which is very worthy of praise. However, did no casualty incident really occur?"

Su Xinghui said, "To tell the truth, some mountain schools in the lower counties and districts are now snowed in, and I can't get in, so some situations can't be investigated on the spot. However, before the heavy snow, I went to the lower counties and districts to investigate, investigated the dangerous school buildings in each county and district, and emphasized to the leaders in charge that absolutely no casualty incident could occur."

"Afterwards, we raised a sum of funds to reinforce and repair these dangerous school buildings, and those that really couldn't be repaired were no longer used, arranging the students in these school buildings to other safe places. For these projects, I also went to the site to conduct spot checks, and the overall situation was satisfactory."

"After the snow, we also went to the places we could go to conduct spot checks, and the situation we learned was that there were still collapse phenomena in school buildings, but indeed no casualty incident occurred. After the spring thaw, we will send people into the mountains again to spot check the situation..."

Su Xinghui reported the situation of this work to Wang Guoxiong in detail, and Wang Guoxiong nodded repeatedly, obviously still quite satisfied.

After Su Xinghui finished speaking, Wang Guoxiong said, "Your work is still done quite solidly."

Su Xinghui said, "This work relates to the life safety of teachers and students, so it won't do not to do it solidly. Even if there is only one casualty, it may look inconspicuous in the statistical data, but for their family, that is an unbearable pain."

Su Xinghui said it very sincerely, and Wang Guoxiong couldn't help but be moved, saying, "If every leading cadre were like you, caring about the people, why would we worry about our country not being rich and strong?"

Su Xinghui said, "Vice Governor Wang, you overstate it; I have only done a bit of insignificant work."

Wang Guoxiong said, "Often it is the more insignificant work that is harder to do well."

Su Xinghui also nodded with deep feeling; some detailed work is indeed easily ignored by people, and wanting to do detailed work well is indeed very difficult, but this detailed work is also very important—the so-called details determine success or failure.

Next, Su Xinghui also reported the situation of other work he was in charge of to Wang Guoxiong. His work style was very solid, and the data he reported to Wang Guoxiong was also very detailed, making Wang Guoxiong very satisfied after listening.

Especially Baozhou's tourism industry; the development situation made Wang Guoxiong very happy, especially that large ski resort with an investment of hundreds of millions, which made Wang Guoxiong very pleasantly surprised.

Yanbei Province has never been a major tourism province, and the amount of foreign investment introduced in the tourism industry in the past, I'm afraid that even if added together, it might not compare to the investment in this ski resort.

Wang Guoxiong smiled and said, "Comrade Xinghui, you can be considered to have launched a big satellite! This ski resort invested hundreds of millions at once; it seems Baozhou's tourism industry has no small potential."

Su Xinghui said, "Anyway, I have great confidence in building the tourism industry into one of Baozhou's pillar industries."

Wang Guoxiong said, "You said this so much that I want to go to your Baozhou City to take a look."

Su Xinghui said, "Then I represent the Baozhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government to issue an invitation to you, asking you to come to our Baozhou City to inspect."

Wang Guoxiong smiled and said, "Fine, I will consider it."

At noon that day, Wang Guoxiong treated Su Xinghui to a meal at the provincial government guesthouse. The dishes for this meal were relatively simple and not too sumptuous, which could be considered the working meal Wang Guoxiong spoke of.

For this meal, Wang Guoxiong didn't serve wine because it was noon and they still had to work in the afternoon. However, Su Xinghui still appreciated Wang Guoxiong's pragmatic work style. In fact, if it weren't for necessary social engagements, Su Xinghui didn't like drinking much either.

After eating, Wang Guoxiong asked, "Comrade Xinghui, how are your arrangements for the afternoon?"

Su Xinghui said, "I'm going back to Baozhou in the afternoon."

Wang Guoxiong said, "If there's nothing, you can play around in Yanzhong City. Work needs to be serious, but sometimes you can also relax appropriately; you don't have to rush so urgently."

Su Xinghui nodded and said, "Fine, I will remember your words."

Wang Guoxiong nodded and said, "Then I have things to do in the afternoon, so I won't accompany you."

Su Xinghui said, "Please go ahead and be busy with your work."

After Wang Guoxiong left, just as Su Xinghui was preparing to take Zhai Yingjie's car back with Xia Song, his mobile phone rang. He looked and saw it was Zhao Yichen's number.

He answered the phone and said, "Hello, hello, Minister Zhao!"

Zhao Yichen laughed heartily and said, "Comrade Xinghui, finished eating with Vice Governor Wang?"

Su Xinghui said, "Finished, where are you?"
