cadres. Deputy Director Wang from the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department led the team to announce the appointment of the new director. 。The former Director reached retirement, and Depu...The provincial meeting will be held in Shengzhou, Zhang Xinyue specifically mentioned that Yu Zhenggang should accompany Wen Yanci. 。The Secretary's office was divided into sections. Wen Yanqi originally served the director of the hall and Zhang Hall Director. After Zhang Xinyue was promoted to Hall Director, Li Zheng came to the office, and Wen Yanqi naturally served the new Hall Director. 。Zhang Xinyue likes to sit in off-road vehicles, and she prefers the passenger seat. 。Wen Yanqi opened the co-pilot door, Zhang Xin leaped in, Wen Yanqi sat behind Zhang Xinye, Zhang Xinye's position was adjusted very far back, Wen Yanqi could only hug his legs tightly. 。Yu Zhenggang sat beside Wen Yanqi and asked, "Xiao Wen is gone, will the secretary's office change" Wen Yanqi smiled and replied, "Yes, Xiao Li is a promising seedling and progresses very quickly!"Yu Zhenggang said, "That's good. Just walk around with the director more often, it's better than staying in the office. I don't know how you are doing, but I sit in the office all day and my prostate hurts." 。Zhang XinYue smiled and said, "If you've broken it, just cut it." 。Yu Zhenggang smiled and replied, "Of course not, why would I" 。As the car arrived in Shengzhou, Mayor Fu Yansheng of Shengzhou City had already been waiting at the reception hall. Zhang Xinyue opened the car door himself and strode towards Mayor Fu Yansheng. Fu Yansheng was a bit chubby and his temperament was obviously not as good as Zhang Xinyue's. Although they were at the same level, Fu Yansheng seemed to have a bigger air about him. He had only taken a few steps... 。According to convention, when a provincial department head visits a place, the local Party Committee deputy secretary or deputy mayor would usually be responsible for receiving them. The top party and government official would only appear if the visitor was a Standing Committee member of the Provincial Committee. Today, Fu Yansheng personally came to receive Zhang Xinyue, which also showed respect and courtesy towards him. 。Two people shook hands and patted each other on the shoulder. Zhang Xinyue pointed to Yu Zhengang and said to Fu Yansheng, "Meet"

Fu Yansheng said, "I know Zhengang. I've met him a few times when he reported his work in the hall. Zhengang is pretty good." 。Wen Yan pondered the word "report." It was once a formal term, used only in official settings. Now, it's overused, even among peers or when villagers inform their village chiefs about matters. With local finances strained, there are more trips to provincial government offices seeking funds. They mend and patch things together, ultimately doing a great deal of good. Whether they report or not isn't the crucial point; it simply elevates the other party. 。Yu Zhenggang quickly replied, "Hello Mayor," and shook Fu Yansheng's hand. Zhang Xinyue then pointed to Wen Yanqi and said, "This is the secretary in the office, Xiao Wen." 。Wen Yanqi leaned forward, her hands clasped in Fu Yansheng's. However, Fu Yansheng merely brushed past them with a nod. Wen Yanqi quickly smiled. 。

Just now shaking hands, Wen Yanqi habitually shook hands with force. Fu Yansheng's hand, however, softly withdrew. Wen Yanqi felt like he was holding a woman's hand, the air was sticky and greasy, like punching cotton, it wasn't a good feeling.

Fu Yansheng told Zhang Xinyue, "Secretary Chen was supposed to come, but the provincial government called him for a telephone conference at the last minute. Secretary Chen asked the director to understand and said he would be there later." 。Zhang Xinyue smiled. "Understood, understood. There are many things to do in our place, and everything is important. We can't delay any side. Mayor Fu came here personally in this hot weather, and we feel very embarrassed. Later, you go about your business. The comrades from the Shengzhou City Bureau are here, we are all familiar with them." 。Fu Yan Sheng waved his hand, "That's impossible! I only have one task today, to accompany you and the comrades from the provincial government." 。During lunchtime, everyone gathered around a round table. Zhang Xinyue and Fu Yansheng kept whispering to each other, giggling from time to time, looking particularly lively. 。Seeing that the dishes were all served, Fu Yan said to everyone: "We won't say too many polite words. Zhang Tingchang and our fellow comrades from the provincial government have traveled far to come here. We, Linshou City, express our warm welcome. The decision by the province and Zhang Tingchang to hold this provincial on-site meeting in Linshou City is a recognition of our work in Linshou City, and we are very grateful. With this opportunity, we would like to express our gratitude to you all, and please rest assured, Zhang Tingchang, that all aspects of the work in Linshou City are ready, and the on-site meeting will be foolproof and a complete success." 。Zhang Xin Yue also politely said a few words, nothing more than expressions of thanks. 。Zhang Xinyue and Yu Zheng were both having a good time drinking, with plenty of alcohol. 。It is said that when the two were at the design institute, they would drink several rounds a day. Once drunk, Yu Zhenggang gave Zhang Xinyue a sweep leg in the snow, and Zhang Xinyue also punched Yu Zhenggang seriously. They didn't mind it much, and Yu Zhenggang naturally felt more at ease in front of Zhang Xinyue. 。Wen Yanqi was not a good drinker. In the past, he never touched alcohol; he only started drinking when he came to the hall because Zhou Yuanli liked to have a few drinks. Wen Yanqi would reluctantly drink along, especially during the year-end meeting when they were preparing materials, Zhou Yuanli always brought boxes of wine and boasted about coming up with golden quotes after drinking. 。Wen Yan blushed after a few sips of alcohol, then felt dizzy and lightheaded. He got drunk easily and fell asleep right after. Though he couldn't hold his liquor, he had become a night owl, confusing day and night. 。Wen Yan raised his cup only symbolically, taking a few sips. It was all surface-level chatter and polite drinking, the kind you do when everyone is watching. In the end, Zhang Xin Yue didn't drink much, but Wen Yan himself had gotten quite drunk, turning quite red in the face, which wasn't a good look for him. 。Fu Yansheng put down his wine glass, politely gesturing for everyone else to start eating, but he only picked up a symbolic bite of cold dish and then put it down. He instructed the comrades from the municipal government and municipal bureau to be good hosts. 。The people in the city flocked to Zhang Xinyue, offering him wine and he accepted every glass. 。Everyone chatted and laughed, the atmosphere naturally getting more lively as the alcohol flowed. 。Several directors from the Municipal Bureau toasted to Fu Yansheng, and other accompanying officials from the city quickly followed suit. 。Although we both work in the city, I rarely have the chance to drink with the mayor. 。Especially the several deputy positions in the city bureau, the mayor probably can't even remember their names. He'd be happy to take this opportunity to make an impression on the mayor. 。After a few drinks, Fu Yansheng seemed to notice Zhang Xin Yue being ignored. He covered his cup and said in a serious tone: "You guys need to be clear about the theme! What's going on The fellow comrades from the provincial government are the guests, why are we drinking with each other!" 。Those below knew that Fu Yansheng had a serious expression, but he was joking. They laughed and said hurriedly, "How dare we neglect the Director Zhang and comrades from the provincial government!" Then they toasted Zhang Xinyue and them. 。Zhang Xinyue said, "We see each other often anyway. There's no need for formalities between us. Just relax and be yourselves." 。Wen Yan gave Fu Yansheng a toast, and then as it was his turn, he walked up to Fu Yansheng holding his wine cup. He toasted Fu Yansheng, who just shifted his buttocks slightly and said: “Little Wen and Zhang Tingchang often come to Shengzhou, ah. Shengzhou is bustling but not as grand as Mingdu, yet the air here is surprisingly good.” 。Wen Yanqi said: "That depends on Zhang Tingchang. If Tingchang leads the way, I will definitely come. I'm just afraid of bothering the mayor." 。Fu Yansheng said, "Don't bother. Director Zhang, you often come to Shengzhou, so our work will naturally go smoothly, wouldn't you say, Director" Zhang Xinyue said, "Mayor Fu is joking. Without the support of the city, the work in the hall would be difficult." 。"Don't say it, it's all in the wine. The head of the office in Shenshou still needs to guide us." 。Fu Yansheng held his wine glass, but his words were directed at Zhang Xin Yue. Wen Yanqi didn't know what to laugh about, but he had to keep chuckling, smiling until the muscles on his face felt stiff. Only then did Fu Yansheng turn back and symbolically take a small sip, saying to Wen Yanqi: "Sorry, Xiao Wen, it's getting a bit much today." 。Wen Yan quickly stepped forward and pretended to stop Fu Yingsheng's wine glass, saying, "Yes, yes, even the mayor can't drink anymore. I'll finish it." 。Fu Yansheng patted Wen Yanqi again and said to Zhang Xinyue, "Xiao Wen is pretty good!" Zhang Xinyue just smiled. 。After three rounds of wine, Fu Yansheng turned to Zhang Xinyue and asked, "Director Zhang, how are you feeling" 。As soon as everyone heard this, they put down their chopsticks and wine cups. Zhang Xin jumped up and said, "I think it's about time we all take a break." 。Fu Yan Sheng and Zhang Xin Yue got up, and the crowd dispersed. 。Leaving the restaurant, the two men clasped hands and shook them vigorously, appearing particularly intimate. A drink had turned them into brothers. 。He parted his arms and clasped his hands together, shaking them gently with a hint of gangster swagger. 。After Fu Yansheng left, the city bureau surrounded Zhang Xinyue again. Zhang Xinyue said, "No one is staying, everyone go rest." 。Only the City Bureau Chief Wan He-xing accompanied Zhang Xin-yue back to the room. 。

Wan He Xing accompanied Zhang Xin into the room, pretended to test the water temperature, brewed tea, and said to Zhang Xin Yue: "Our welcoming hall conditions are still good. Director Zhang, please rest well. Just now I was only drinking, I'm afraid you didn't eat well. Would you like something else to eat"

Zhang Xinyue said, "If we eat anymore, we'll really become gluttons. He Xing should also go to rest." 。“Wan He Xing Bieno took his leave.” 。s new here and didn't understand some things yet. He asked Mu Tingchang to forgive him.Mu Hua impatiently waved his hand. 。Leaving Mu Hua's office, Wen Yanqi still felt extremely embarrassed. He had j...
