Wan Siwei is considered an old man in the post and telecommunications system, but as the saying goes, a phoenix that has fallen to the ground is no better than a chicken. When he was in power, he moved from the capital to Jiangyue, and had friends all over the world. But when he lost power, he moved from Jiangyue to the capital, and he had no confidants at all, and people were indifferent. This is the reality!
Of course, all this is caused by social conditions, but it is also related to Wan Siwei's personal character. This person has strong working ability, but when he was the director of Linzhou, many subordinates complained that he was arrogant and too official. When he went to the provincial bureau, he was even more one-man rule, excluding dissidents and placing his confidants, which caused many colleagues to bear grudges. Later, in order to compete for resources, several departments were abolished and merged. This not only angered ordinary employees, but also some department heads and deputy leaders in the bureau began to complain. From time to time, people submitted reporting materials to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. Although there was no evidence and it was left unresolved, it also caused a lot of trouble. All this eventually made the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications decide to airdrop a top leader to replace Wan Siwei.
The parachuted in person was Zhou Zheng, the former deputy director of the Planning Department of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications. He was old enough and popular, but he was slightly lacking in ability and was not appreciated by the then Minister Nie Antai. He was not very successful in the ministry. It happened that the director of the Jiangyue Provincial Bureau was vacant, and Wan Siwei, who had the highest popularity, was trapped in the quagmire of reporting because he lost his backers and had poor relations with the masses. After careful consideration, Zhou Zheng decided to jump out of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications first, get out of Nie Antai's sight, go to the local area to gild himself, and then seek to return to the ministry. After some operations, Zhou Zheng got what he wanted, but it was a pity that Wan Siwei tore his face and offended people, and all the family business he built was used as a wedding dress for others.
When Zhou Zheng first arrived in Jiangyue, Wan Siwei wanted to bully him for being incompetent, but unexpectedly, his backyard was not just on fire, it was a volcanic eruption, and even his confidants turned against him. There is no power without minions in the world, and there is no honor without servants. The commander without troops and a lower rank, the result is predictable.
Zhou Zheng came from a ministry, and his business was not very good, but he was no worse than Wan Siwei in terms of political tactics. He first replaced the head of the Finance Department, then merged the Business Department and the Finance Department to form the Business and Finance Department, swallowing up the fat that Wan Siwei had worked so hard to get from the Telecommunications Department, leaving him with only a Post and Telecommunications Service Corporation, which was under the jurisdiction of the Labor Service Company and the Real Estate Construction and Installation Company, which had some oil and water. Old Wan also gave up at this time, and planned to stop and make money honestly. But not long after, a document was passed at the provincial bureau party committee meeting, saying that in order to strengthen leadership, sort out working relationships, further improve the logistics service work of the provincial bureau and develop the tertiary industry, the Post and Telecommunications Service Corporation was abolished and the Jiangyue Post and Telecommunications Logistics Affairs Company was established, which was affiliated to the Jiangyue Communications Industry Corporation.
In less than half a year, Wan Siwei's fortune fell all the way down, and he finally lost everything. He became a tragic benchmark in the Jiangyue Post and Telecommunications System. Some people who had been bullied by him even looked down on him and ridiculed him in person. This was really intolerable. He was a gambler by nature. He was so angry that he brought all his belongings to the capital, not for anything else, but just to prove himself and make a comeback.
Unfortunately, as the saying goes, people forget about you when you are gone. It was not until today that Wan Siwei realized how difficult it is to get things done without power or influence, especially in the capital city, which is a deep and unfathomable den of dragons and tigers. If you are not careful, you will be swallowed up skin and bones.
After several setbacks, Wan Siwei finally found Lei Fang's way through a matchmaker. Lei Fang would not let this wealthy man go so easily. He would first give him some sweet treats, squeeze some money out of him, then set up obstacles, squeeze some money out of him again, and repeat this process. In their industry, this is called "rolling the plate."
In less than a month, Wan Siwei was defrauded of nearly 700,000 yuan. He didn't feel sorry for the money, but he felt sorry that he didn't get any return after spending it. By chance, he met Mo Xiaoan, and tried to do two things at once and follow other people's paths.
Seeing that Wen Liang remained silent after asking the question, Lei Fang suddenly asked, "Is Mr. Wen interested in Posts and Telecommunications, or in Wan Siwei?"
Wen Liang's heart trembled, and he changed the subject, "I have no interest in either of these two, but I am somewhat curious about running for office. Can Master Lei give me some pointers on the tricks?"
Lei Fang laughed and said, "The secret is just seven words: money, connections, and connections! Why, President Wen wants to get into the officialdom?"
He had only received Ning Xi's commission and had not investigated Wen Liang's background, so he naturally didn't know that this young Mr. Wen had a father who was a deputy director.
Wen Liang smiled and said, "How dare I wade into the muddy waters of officialdom? I've heard that running for office in the capital is prevalent, so I'm just a little curious."
Lei Fang seemed to be in the mood to talk, and said, "It's boring to just sit there, so I'll say a few more words. Everyone knows that there's a saying in the officialdom: if you don't run around or give gifts, you'll stay where you are; if you only run around but don't give gifts, you'll be transferred to the same level; if you run around and give gifts, you'll be promoted. But how do you run around and give gifts? When you arrive in a strange place, all your previous connections and relationships are useless, and you feel dizzy. You can only use 30% of the money you spend. So an official once complained to me that running for office is the most difficult sutra to recite. I replied that running for office is actually a true sutra."
"Where is the real secret? It's in the trick you asked about! To run for office, you must rely on the five fundamentals of 'diligence, skill, patience, waiting, and waiting', and the five elements of 'timing, location, connection, person, and method'. You must be diligent in running, be skillful in handling things, be patient in small matters, and wait for big matters. Finally, you must be careful to serve people in front, behind, left, and right. This is the fundamental."
Fan Bo had always wanted to get close to the government, but he had also failed to curry favor with the government. He was so absorbed in listening that he subconsciously asked, "What about the five elements?"
"From a small perspective, when your wife's children's birthdays or your parents' birthdays come, you can take the opportunity to congratulate them and show your appreciation. If you wait at home, you won't risk losing your office, so the location is right. If you hurry up before the meeting to make a decision, or after the meeting to make a decision, then it's the right time. If you go to this person for a thing, it will work, but that person won't. Sometimes, if you go one less person, the effort will be wasted. Sometimes, if you go to one more person, you will end up making things worse... Hehe, Wan Siwei dared to go to Mo Xiaoan behind my back. If it weren't for President Wen's suggestion, I would risk not only doing this deal but also ruining my own reputation, but also letting him know what it means to have no way to heaven and no way to hell!"
There was such viciousness in these words that even in the comfortable constant temperature pool, I could feel a chill on my back. For someone like Lei Fang, his ability to get things done remains to be verified, but his ability to do bad things is absolutely unquestionable.
However, anyone who really believes that he let Wan Siwei go because of Wen Liang's sake is so naive and terrifying. The only thing that can determine Lei Fang's will and Wan Siwei's future is interests.
Yan Zi once said, "If you can't use people, and you are not used by others, you are lowly." Since Lei Fang wanted to give Wen Liang this favor, Wen Liang accepted it and thanked him with a proud smile, saying, "This is all my fault. I didn't understand the situation clearly and talked too much, which made things difficult for Lei Shao."
Lei Fang waved his hand and said, "It's nothing difficult. Teacher Fan, do you want to hear more about the methods of seeking official positions?"
"Listen, of course I have to listen!"
"There are many different ways to go, such as going alone; going with an intermediary; going by prior agreement; going by chance. Giving gifts should be natural, and giving money should be safe. Some gifts can be given openly, while others can be given secretly. Some people receive money but still have to be honest and abide by the law. Some people receive money but only care about the benefits. If you give too little, the gift may offend people. If you give too much, it may scare people. Sometimes money is not enough, and you have to give other things of equal value. You can also give it in an elegant and cultural way, so that both parties can feel happy and comfortable..."
Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years. Fan Bo suddenly had an epiphany and finally understood why he had been unsuccessful in all these years. Wen Liang said half seriously and half jokingly: "Knowledge is knowledge of the world, and knowledge of human nature is writing. In the future, Master Lei, don't say that you are a rough man. If you are a rough man, how can there be refined people in the country?"
The three of them laughed at the same time. When the laughter gradually died down, Lei Fang casually tapped the button beside the pool. Wen Liang thought it was used to adjust the water temperature or flow rate, but unexpectedly, the door was pushed open a moment later.
Young Master Lei from Beijing is indeed extraordinary!
Fan Bo was stunned, with his mouth slightly open. Lei Fang leaned back in the pool, but his eyes did not fall on the beauty at all. Instead, he watched the changes in Wen Liang's expression, with a deeper meaning in his eyes.
Tingji, Yongxu, Menggui, Jinyu, and Rubing were introduced one by one. Wen Liang was surprised. The names of these girls were clearly the verdicts of the Twelve Beauties of Jinling. Tingji's virtue was lamentable, while Yongxu's talent was pitiful. The former was Baochai and the latter was Daiyu. The tiger and the rabbit meet, and Menggui refers to Yuanchun. The poor Jinyu refers to Miaoyu. The jealousy of Rubing and water is Li Wan... With this idea in mind, when he looked at the people again, he found that the one named Tingji was round and smooth, the one named Yongxu was fragile, Menggui was bright and runny, Jinyu was beautiful, and Rubing was elegant. Not only their names, but also their looks and temperament were incomparably consistent with the people in "Dream of Red Mansions".
Just these few women can give you a glimpse of the luxurious life in the capital city!"
(Rabindranath Tagore - When you commanded me to sing, my heart seemed to burst with pride, I looked up at your face, tears welled up in my eyes.
In my socket.
All the bitterness and contradictions in my life melted into a sweet harmony—
My praise is like a joyful bird, fluttering its wings across the ocean.
I know you enjoy my singing. I know it is only because I am a singer that I can come before you.
With the outstretched wings of my song I have touched your feet, which I never dared to hope to touch.
Intoxicated by the song, I forgot myself. You were my master, but I called you my friend.
I know not how thou singest, my lord! I always listen in wonder.
The radiance of your music illuminates the world. The breath of your music permeates the heavens.
The holy spring of thy music rushes forward, breaking through all the rocks that stand in its way.
My heart longs to sing with you, but I can't make a sound. I want to speak, but words can't make a song. I call
Oh, you have made my heart a prisoner in the vast net of your music, my master!
Please allow me to slack off for a while and sit beside you. I will finish the work at hand later.
Without your presence, my heart knows no peace or repose, and my work becomes an endless sea of toil.
Endless toil in the.
Without your presence, my heart knows no peace or repose, and my work becomes an endless sea of toil.
Endless toil in the world. (To be continued)
