Places like the Great World usually have special passages reserved for dignitaries who are not suitable for public access. From the room to the elevator corridor and then to the underground parking lot, you will not run into anyone you don't want to see. There are countless other humanized designs. The more high-end and luxurious the service industry is, the more it implements the motto "customers are God". In other words, this is the real "people-oriented" approach, which is nearly ten years earlier than the Third Plenary Session of the 16th CPC Central Committee formally proposing the people-oriented concept of governing the country.
Zuo Yuxi is the kind of person who cannot be exposed, not because of her identity, but because her true relationship with An Baoqing cannot be known at this stage or even for a long time in the future. This time she made an exception and came to the big world in person, just because Wen Liang was here, and she couldn't wait to see him.
The two of them left through the special passage and came to a small underground parking lot with only three parking spaces. A graphite pearl-colored LEXUS luxury car was parked on the far left. This LS400, which was just launched in November 1994, exuded low-key luxury. Wen Liang was slightly surprised, turned his head to look at Zuo Yuxi's profile, and asked, "Why did you change the car again? Where's the Audi?"
The first car I saw was Santana, then I went to Lingyang and drove back an Audi. This time, I took a stroll in Guanshan and actually got a Lexus. Oh no, it’s still called Lingzhi in China, and the name was officially changed in 2004.
Following this trend, if I go to Beijing someday, should I change to a Mercedes-Benz
Zuo Yuxi put on sunglasses after she went out, so we couldn't see the expression in her eyes, but the smile on her face still betrayed her occasional playfulness: "I was just thinking that you might not recognize this model, so I was going to ridicule you. I didn't expect you to actually recognize it, but... well, you look so cute when you're surprised..."
Being praised by Zuo Yuxi for being cute, Uncle Wen didn't know whether to cry or laugh, and said helplessly: "Being a fangirl will affect your image in my mind..."
"Oh," Zuo Yuxi became interested and pushed up her sunglasses, revealing her bright eyes, which were full of water and rippling with affection. "What image should I have originally?"
Wen Liang smiled and said, "Beautiful, calm and confident, noble, elegant, kind-hearted and decisive. Most importantly, her values may not be correct, but they suit my taste... Beautiful girl, you have to be a little humble when you hear such corny compliments, but it's best not to show a smug expression, okay?"
Zuo Yuxi laughed out loud. Having known Wen Liang for a long time, she became more and more shameless. She said, "You are right. Why can't I be proud? The previous part is easy to understand. You have good vision. But what does the three views mean?"
"World view, outlook on life, and values. Freud said that what makes humans different from animals is that humans have these three perspectives, while animals do not."
Zuo Yuxi suddenly realized, but she always felt something was wrong in her heart. Her beautiful eyebrows were knitted into a ball. It was not until the two of them got in the car that she came to her senses. She smiled and rushed over to press Wen Liang on the passenger seat: "Okay, you said that my values are not right, doesn't that mean I am not a human being?"
The beauty was like jade, with a subtle fragrance floating in the air. Wenliang put his arms around her waist, stared into her eyes so close to him, and said softly, "I am praising you. Those with correct values are human beings, those without them are beasts, and those with incorrect values are what they are. They are gods!"
In fact, there is something he didn't say out loud: It's no big deal if you're not a human. There are more ghosts than people in this world, so we just have to follow the local customs!
"Haha, I just realized that you are so good at flattering people!"
Wen Liang gave her a wink, rubbed her waist gently with his fingers, and teased: "My flattery skills are as good as my kissing skills..."
Before she could finish her words, her lips were sealed by Zuo Yuxi. Ever since the window paper between the two of them was torn, Zuo MM liked this kind of lip game more and more. She could get aroused easily and never get tired of it.
After a long time, their lips parted.
Wen Liang waited for Zuo Yuxi to sit back in his seat, looked at the layout of the car, and said, "You, you are a small deputy director, not even qualified for a Santana, but everyone in the system is like this, so no one can say anything. The inspection of public buses has been so strict in the past two years. I saw a document issued by the province from my dad a few days ago. We still have to pay attention to the impact. This car must not be driven out."
Speaking of public car management, it is simply a big joke. In October 1988, the General Administration of the State Council issued the "Regulations on the Standards for the Allocation of Cars in Central State Organs" for the first time, which stipulated the standards for the allocation of cars for civil servants as follows: Minister-level cadres are allocated special cars, while deputy minister-level cadres are not allocated special cars but are guaranteed work cars. In other words, no one below the ministerial level is allocated a special car. Even a five-year-old child knows that such a regulation is doomed to be unimplemented for even a day from the day it was born. Not to mention the central ministries, departments and bureaus, provincial and municipal party committees and governments and directly affiliated agencies, even the departments and bureaus in local districts and counties have turned a blind eye to this document and continue to do what they should do.
Even under such circumstances, this regulation still existed for six years. It was not until 1994 that the General Office of the CPC Central Committee and the General Office of the State Council jointly issued the "Regulations on the Allocation and Use of Automobiles in Party and Government Agencies", which clearly defined: "Ministerial and provincial governor-level cadres are allocated one car per person, and incumbent deputy ministerial and deputy provincial-level cadres are guaranteed work cars and relatively fixed cars."
What is this? This is the legendary "You slap my left cheek, I'll slap you on the right cheek, if you don't like it, let's switch sides!" The direct consequence of this is that 16 years after the reform of the public bus system, the annual fiscal expenditure on public buses has exceeded 200 billion yuan. In some places, the public bus expenditure even accounts for 6%-12% of the fiscal expenditure, which does not include some hidden expenses. The real data is even more shocking!
"Don't worry. I came to the Great World mainly to hide from others. I borrowed my friend's car. Even if someone saw me, they wouldn't guess it was me. Anyway, I can't afford such a nice car."
Wen Liang smiled and said nothing more. With Zuo Jing's current status and position, not to mention a Lexus worth less than one million, even a Ferrari or Porsche worth several million would be a piece of cake. However, Zuo Yuxi was in the system, so he would never be able to use these luxury goods publicly in his life.
Zuo Yuxi turned the steering wheel and drove out of the parking lot with ease, and entered the street from an exit on the left side of the Great World. No one noticed, as if he had never appeared.
Wen Liang got off the bus near Courtyard No. 7. When he returned home, he saw a person who should never be here sitting on the sofa in the living room. He was immediately stunned at the door.
"Why did you come back so late? Why are you standing there like an idiot? Why don't you say hello to the teacher?"
Ding Mei didn't know why she didn't go to work, which was a rare thing. Since Wei Gang stepped down, Zhang Changqing, who had been claiming to be ill, returned to the agricultural machinery factory. Although the performance was still not good and the factory was dragging on, it was at least much better than when Wei Gang was in office. Wen Liang heard Ding Mei mention that Zhang Changqing pointed to his head and swore at the factory staff meeting that as long as he was the factory director, he would not let any worker be laid off, and the cheers he received were more than ten times more than those of the secretary and mayor.
At that time, Xu Zhou and his team were all focused on the Qinghua Factory, and no one cared about the life and death of the Agricultural Machinery Factory. Zhang Changqing had to say such words in order to maintain stability, and everyone could understand it. But the sequelae left behind would soon become apparent. Once the factory could not support itself, whether Zhang Changqing was removed or the Agricultural Machinery Factory went bankrupt, the resistance would be ten times greater.
Wen Huaiming followed Xu Fuyan to Guanshan and Qingzhou, and had no time and energy to understand Ding Mei's inner world. As a son, Wen Liang saw everything. Ding Mei, who has always been carefree, occasionally sat on the sofa in a daze after returning home recently. The remote control in his hand subconsciously changed the channel, but his eyes were fixed on a certain place, completely in a state of emptiness. When he called, he often heard words such as sales and quality. This was unimaginable in the past. Wen Liang knew that after the Wei Gang incident, all the people in the agricultural machinery factory seemed to wake up overnight. For this state-owned enterprise that has nurtured two generations, no one of the children of agricultural machinery is willing to watch it die step by step.
Ding Mei is no exception!
So recently, she has ignored Wenliang's study and life and devoted herself to work. Although she is powerless to change anything, at least she has worked hard with her colleagues. Maybe a miracle will happen
But Wen Liang was surprised not by Ding Mei, but by Ye Yuting. Wearing a black woolen plaid coat with pink hues and dark grey trousers, Teacher Ye stood up and looked at Wen Liang with a smile on her face.
"Why, you haven't been to school for just a few days and you don't even recognize your teacher?"
"How could that be? Teacher Ye is getting more and more beautiful. I can't believe my eyes..."
"What are you talking about? Teacher Ye, I'm really sorry. I've spoiled this child so much that he speaks so disrespectfully. Please don't be offended."
Ye Yuting was used to being teased by Wen Liang at school, so such words had no killing power at all. However, when she heard Ding Mei say this, she still glanced at Wen Liang with a half-smile and said, "You are too polite. Wen Liang is sweet-mouthed, polite, well-behaved, and never causes trouble. The teachers like him very much."
After some polite exchanges, Wen Liang finally understood the purpose of Ye Yuting's visit. This head teacher had a strong sense of responsibility. Seeing that Wen Liang had taken a few days of sick leave, she was worried and called Ding Mei to come over to check on him. Ding Mei happened to be staying at home because Wen Liang did not come back last night, so this scene happened.
Ye Yuting was smart and knew there must be a reason since Wen Liang was not at home and Ding Mei was unclear about what she said. She did not ask much, but just told Wen Liang to go to school as soon as he felt better, as missing too many classes would affect his grades.
Wen Liang naturally agreed. Now that the task force had moved in and Yu Peidong had made his position clear, he could do nothing about it at this point and had originally planned to return to school tomorrow.
After sending Ye Yuting out of the community, seeing that there was no one around, Ye Yuting grabbed Wen Liang's ear and sneered, "Okay, you're not sick and you're asking for sick leave. Do you think I'm easy to fool? Look, I'm going to make things difficult for you!"
