There was silence.
The conference room was eerily quiet.
Dong Xuebin looked at everyone and said, "Six to five, then it's settled."
The matter has come to this, and the result cannot be changed. They do not have Dong Xuebin's ability to rewind time, and they can only watch Dong Xuebin succeed at the beginning. If Dong Xuebin is a local cadre from a neighboring county, if Dong Xuebin has worked as secretary of the county party committee for more than a year, and if the standing committee can only barely defeat the county magistrate by voting, then Dong Xuebin is definitely incompetent as secretary, but now Dong Xuebin has no foundation, no communication, and on the first day of official work, he actually forced everyone to stand in line at the Standing Committee. He also overpowered the old people from Jiao Neighboring County who were from Zhang Dongfang's lineage. This situation was certainly gratifying for the Dong Xuebin faction.
Look at the watch.
The meeting lasted for a long time, and it was almost twelve o'clock.
The people on Zhang Dongfang's side didn't look very pretty, and no one spoke.
Dong Xuebin did not gloat about his misfortune, nor did he show his joy and emotions on his face, as if he had just done a very common thing. But the more he did this, the greater the blow to the people of the Zhang family. They really I don’t know where Dong Xuebin got his confidence. He was so sure that those old subordinates of the old [Secretary] would all stand in his team? It's impossible. They believe that Dong Xuebin must not know either.
This is the first time I have seen this kind of secretary of the county party committee!
He is obviously the number one, but this is too unconventional?
Zhang Dongfang analyzed it and sighed silently in his heart. I have to accept this fact. In fact, think about it. From the very beginning of the Standing Committee meeting, the initiative of the meeting was firmly in the hands of Dong Xuebin. It was obviously something that was not good for him, but Dong Xuebin actually dared to take the initiative to mention it. He came out and forcibly took the initiative. In addition, Zhang Dongfang and the others did not expect or prepare in advance, so Dong Xuebin caught them!
Miscalculation!
Zhang Dongfang was very upset. He really takes the issue of lining up this time very seriously. But unexpectedly, the outcome of the matter was not the development he imagined. However, everyone from his own faction was there, and Zhang Dongfang quickly adjusted his expression and became calm, as if he didn't seem to care much. Everyone felt that County Magistrate Zhang still had confidence and trump cards. An attitude that says there is a long way to go. In fact, he does have confidence in his heart. Losing this time? It’s okay, there’s still next time. And next time, Zhang Dongfang doesn't believe that he can't fight against a young boy who is almost half his age, and he doesn't pay much attention to this new county party committee secretary. After this incident, Zhang Dongfang doesn't If he underestimates the enemy again, he will definitely use 100% of his energy to have a good fight with Dong Xuebin next time.
"Okay, it's time for a lunch break." Dong Xuebin saw that everything that needed to be said was said and everything that needed to be done was done, so he knocked on the table and said, "Let's adjourn the meeting."
Everyone tidied things on the table.
Dong Xuebin stood up and was the first to walk out of the conference room.
Several members of the Standing Committee at the back subconsciously looked at his back, some whispered a few words, and some walked out in twos and threes.
Outside.
As soon as he came out, Dong Xuebin heard the patter of rain. It seemed to be raining heavily. He couldn't help but glanced outside the window. Sure enough, it was raining heavily, and there were accumulations in many places in the yard. Water, even when I looked up, I saw some water leaking into the wall of the corridor of their office building. The house was too old and dilapidated, and the new county party committee compound was about to be completed, so there was no repairs here, so it caused a more serious situation. Looking at the water dripping from the cracks in the wall, Dong Xuebin shook his head slightly.
A female staff member suddenly walked upstairs and stood opposite Dong Xuebin.
Dong Xuebin asked: "When did it rain? Didn't the weather forecast not report rain today?"
The female clerk recognized Dong Xuebin and said hurriedly and respectfully: "Secretary Dong, that's right. We have many mountains here. Sometimes the climate changes rapidly, so the weather forecast is often inaccurate. This rain is It just fell around ten o'clock. It started with sleet and snow, which was quite light. Then ten minutes later it started to rain heavily. I don't know when it will stop. It looks like it will be in the afternoon or evening. "
The first rain in spring this year is coming with force.
There was roaring, lightning and thunder, and the rain felt like it was getting heavier and heavier.
…
〖Office of the Secretary.
Only now did Dong Xuebin realize how busy a secretary is. As soon as he came back, before he could reflect on the victory at the Standing Committee, the phone in the secretarial room outside rang.
Su Yan, who had finished filing the meeting documents, also came back and answered the phone one by one. Not long after, Su Yan knocked on the door and pushed open the door of Dong Xuebin's office. "Secretary, there are reports of frequent traffic accidents. There have been eight or nine cases." The road on the Nanshui side has caved in and is temporarily closed. There is also a serious traffic jam on the East Gate side. Many cars have been stuck in the rain for more than an hour. "
At noon, the sky outside was almost as dark as at night.
There was another rumble of thunder, and the lights in the office flashed a few times, almost suffocating.
Dong Xuebin immediately said: "Notify the following and take emergency plans immediately." He did not give specific instructions, because that was a matter for the county government and the next level. Dong Xuebin is now the secretary of the county party committee. He does not need to do everything himself, which would be the opposite. It may affect work efficiency. Besides, he is not familiar with the work here. He only needs to pay attention to the general direction instructions. Naturally, the relevant departments will take measures below. Of course, he is not just a hand-off shopkeeper. I still made a few calls to pay attention to the sudden heavy rain.
Hope it's okay.
Dong Xuebin didn't want anything to happen to the county on his first day in office.
However, sometimes the more you think about something, the more it will do to you!
The dining truck delivering meals to the agency was also blocked outside. It was past twelve o'clock and no one had eaten. Dong Xuebin was still in the office and asked Su Yan to hurry up on the dining truck. We can't let everyone suffer like this. I was hungry, so Chang Lin, secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, hurriedly knocked on the door.
"Book! Something happened!" Chang Lin was a little caught in the rain, and there were some water drops on his hair, as if he had just come back from outside.
Dong Xuebin's eyes tightened, "What's going on, please tell me slowly."
Chang Lin said quickly: "The fire rescue command center just received a report. Several tourist buses from the city went to Qing'e Mountain in our county. They arrived in the morning, and it happened to catch up with heavy rain. The person who reported the case was The driver of the tour bus said that he had lost contact with the people on the mountain for almost three hours. There were about less than a hundred people on the bus, all teachers and students, and it was a spring outing organized by the city's No. 1 Middle School. "
Dong Xuebin's face changed slightly, "So many people?"
"Yes, I just contacted the search and rescue team and rushed over." Chang Lin said.
Dong Xuebin stood up and said, "Why can't we contact you?"
Chang Lin explained: "The terrain of Qing'e Mountain is not good, and there is a lot of interference from communication equipment there. Basically, there is no signal for mobile phones on the mountain. Moreover, the mountain has not undergone planned tourism development, but only some simple roads have been built." It is convenient for tourists to climb mountains, but it is very foggy there, it is long and easy to lose your sense of direction, and the terrain is complex. Unfamiliar people may get lost or even fall off the cliff. Every year in our county, many tourists and even the fire brigade have accidents in Qing'e Mountain. A search and rescue team has been set up over there that is only responsible for Qing'e Mountain. It's raining so hard now, and I've lost contact with the students and teachers on the mountain for so long, I'm afraid something will happen!"
Dong Xuebin digested it for a while, nodded immediately, and said loudly: "The rescue team alone is not enough. I will send more police immediately. I will use all the available ones. I will contact the local towns to send people to do all-out search and rescue! We must ensure that the people in the city's No. 1 Middle School are rescued." Teachers and students, please rescue me safely!"
Chang Lin responded "Understood!"
Dong Xuebin said: "Is your car upstairs?"
"Here you are..." Chang Lin looked at him.
Dong Xuebin casually grabbed his coat and put it on his body, "Let's make your car and go to the scene together. I won't worry if you don't watch it in person." After saying that, he went out with Chang Lin, and Su Yan naturally followed closely. , Dong Xuebin turned around and said to him: "Contact County Magistrate Zhang and tell him."
Su Yan quickly called the other party. After exchanging a few words, several people came out of the corridor. Su Yan said: "County Magistrate Zhang has already gone to the scene." After a pause, he said: "I heard that someone from the TV station Went there too.”
Dong Xuebin frowned and said, "I know." This Lao Zhang moves pretty fast.
Chang Lin probably also understood that Zhang Dongfang had just lost to Dong Xuebin at the Standing Committee meeting. This was because he wanted to reverse the situation as soon as possible and participate in the rescue command as a political show. He was already one head short in the number of votes on the Standing Committee. Naturally, he had to start from Make up for it elsewhere.
Dong Xuebin doesn't care about this. If you Zhang Dongfang were there one step earlier, he would be one step earlier. What he is more concerned about now is the safety of the children and teachers.
Ring ring ring.
The phone rang.
Dong Xuebin didn't recognize the number, but he answered it anyway. While answering it, he got into a police car with Su Yan holding an umbrella to protect him.
"Hello, I'm Dong Xuebin."
"I am Qian Litao, secretary of the Baohong Municipal Party Committee!"
The voice over there was full of energy, and Dong Xuebin was slightly startled: "...Hello, Secretary Qian."
When Su Yan and Chang Lin in the car heard this, their brows jumped. They knew who the caller was, and they held their breath. This was their instinctive awe for a municipal party committee secretary.
But Secretary Qian only said one sentence: "I know the matter. Now the whole city is very concerned about it. The children and teachers of our city's No. 1 Middle School must save me as soon as possible. Listen, I say It’s a must, give me all your efforts to search and rescue, no one can cause any problems!”
What can Dong Xuebin say? All we can say is: "Don't worry, we promise to do our best."
Beep beep, the phone over there was hung up. It seemed that Secretary Qian was very prejudiced against Dong Xuebin. (To be continued...)
