When you have more, you are unwilling to lose more. When you gain benefits from friends, colleagues, and similar people around you, you have unknowingly entered the game.
Lu Ping'an went to Changping Prefecture once to participate in the training for young cadres. He took advantage of the time to go because two days after the "training" was scheduled to end, there would be a training for young cadres in the ancient city... It's hard to believe. , this is not a confrontation.
Lu Ping'an originally thought that during this training, an elder would come to speak, some internal secrets would be conveyed, and there might be a training camp and loyalty test, but the result...
“It’s been three days of delicious food and drink…”
A group of "young cadres" who kill people in foreign lands without blinking an eye, took a comfortable three-day vacation in the most upscale hotel in Changping City, just like a company vacation at the end of the year.
Everyone is not used to this. After everyone communicated, they discovered that only some of them are real "young cadres" from Changping Prefecture. Most of them are young people who have performed well in exploring other foreign lands such as the Silent Mountains. Some of them are Some tend to be official, and some are official themselves... At least, Lu Ping'an has not seen any young people leaning towards other churches.
There were no lectures. The reception staff were not low-level, but they always greeted them with smiles. The only thing that could be called official news was a two-page training summary... Lu Ping An didn't even think twice about writing that thing. It's a cliché. If you pile it all together, the 500-word space will be full.
"It's just a welfare benefit, just to show friendliness."
"It...Changping Prefecture really makes any demands on us at this time, let alone complying with them. We will probably feel disgusted."
"This is quite clever. Don't tell me, I feel a little panicked now that I am eating and drinking for free. I feel like I owe something."
Young people are young and energetic, and tend to eat soft things rather than hard things. Obviously, the old fried dough sticks in the state capital are very good at life.
Don't mention any demands or doctrines, just express your friendliness...and respect.
Young people are the future. This is not an empty talk, but many old people regard it as a cliché, because most young people really can’t get up... Those who can come to this hotel to participate in the conference are obviously the right ones. The future of Changping Prefecture.
Young people start their careers early. In fact, what they need most is not treatment and money, but "respect" and "sincerity"...Normal people in their own lives will not like cool writing routines that show off and slap people in the face all the way. , you can gain the respect and attention of your superiors from the beginning, what reason is there for refusing?
After this wave, not to mention other young people with official leanings, even Lu Ping'an himself has gained a little more favorable impressions.
At the same time, this also gives these young cadres in Changping Prefecture a platform to get to know each other and communicate with each other.
We will definitely meet and cooperate with you on various occasions in the future. No one can guarantee that everything will go smoothly and you will not need to ask for help in your life. At this time, it will naturally be easy to deal with them.
Those who can get to this point, at least have basic emotional intelligence online, and after a little testing, they know that there is no weak point between them.
There were more than a dozen people whom Lu Ping An instinctively felt threatened, including twenty-one who were under the age of thirty, and Lu Ping An didn't even see the pure second level.
Lu Ping'an himself received an address book with everyone's profiles and dozens of business cards... His own new business cards were temporarily made by a printing shop at this time, and he happened to meet them somewhere. A colleague also came to print new business cards, and the scene was quite delicate for a while.
Three days of "training" passed by in a flash. As soon as Lu Ping'an returned to the ancient city, he received a notice for training for local young cadres.
Originally, I thought it was another small vacation, but it turned out...
"Is this the pattern gap..."
Looking at the printed information booklet in front of him and the city leaders talking eloquently on it, Lu Ping'an felt strange.
Not to mention the meeting of scholars, the ancient city bureaucrats came to do what they are most accustomed to: one meeting, three tests, training lectures, and a closed two-day training, which made people feel irritable.
This is really not a formality, but a "solid biscuit" filled with content.
At the beginning, there were a bunch of loyalty speeches, talking about patriotism and love for the city, the long history of our ancient city, and then the development opportunities of this era, the development strategy of the next development zone, and so on.
It is not that there is no useful information. The development strategy is even related to everyone. It also vaguely reveals the city government’s policies and concepts on many important issues, including but not limited to “We are not the same people as Changping Prefecture, and they will not get rich.” They will give us a piece of meat", "We must be friendly to outsiders in the development zone, they are our development opportunities" and so on.
But the most important thing is to convey the external development strategy of "focusing on the development of a green planet". This was specifically stated by the new director of the newly established "Exploration Bureau".
The stuff was very important, but he was bombarded with information and almost made Lu Pingping fall asleep... Well, he really fell asleep, but there was a "secretary" to help him listen to the class. Afterwards, I saw what she summarized Briefings are more effective than listening directly.
To be honest, from eight in the morning to ten in the evening, I was called out to talk alone several times. This meeting was a headache, and it also made Lu Ping'an miss the hotel bath vacation of the previous three days even more... Both parties There are obvious differences in means and patterns.
However, what is more felt is the determination of the ancient city this time.
"Do you want to succeed alone at all costs...?"
Among the information Lu Ping'an obtained, there was quite a lot about the green planet. The most eye-catching one was the frontline bases established in four cities, including the ancient city, where garrisons were sent.
Note that it is the ancient city and other four cities, not Dongguo, let alone Changping Prefecture.
These cities have obviously chosen to "go alone".
how so?
"From history or reality, from ideals or the future, we must fight for our own future independently..."
At the training meeting, although the words were a little euphemistic, the training officer made it very clear that "we plan to work alone."
"Why do you have to go it alone?"
"Because if you don't work alone, most of the profits...maybe even 90% of the profits will be taken away by the superiors."
"It's okay to take them away, but if something goes wrong on our side, for example, if an evil god opens the door, for example, if our battle line collapses, it is impossible for them to rescue... Even if they want to come, it will probably be too late. , this has been verified by history.”
Rome wasn't built in a day, and trust isn't built in a month.
Past experience made the managers of the ancient city not act blindly because of the overall situation of "the whole country working together"... They calmly analyzed the current situation and found that some things have indeed changed, and some things are impossible. Was changed.
For example, the relationship between the central government and the states is getting closer with the implementation of the Explorer system.
Controlling the center of the "Outer Domain Gate" will become the target of the various states. The nominal master of the Eastern Kingdom will be infinitely closer to the reality.
But this does not mean that the relatively independent relationship between the state capital and the lower level cities will change in the past. On the contrary, the internal struggle may become more intense.
This is because the state government does not have big weapons that are conducive to peace such as the "Quota of Righteous Gods" and "Exotic Development Rights". These things are all in the hands of the central government and it is impossible for them to issue them.
In the past, the state capital was just the largest city in a state. It infinitely absorbed the surrounding resources to strengthen itself.
Take Lu Ping'an's previous experience as an example. When the ancient city is in danger, it is impossible for the state government to provide assistance... Is it possible to provide assistance? Responsibility, the countless towns and villages below will consume their combat power and financial resources indefinitely.
Now, this situation cannot be changed in the short term.
The central government brings all the state governments together to make a fortune, so all states are willing to get closer to the central government. This authoritative effect further increases its prestige and real power.
The state capital takes the cities below to hunt in exotic places? He will eat most of the profits in one go, and then in the process, he will control the distribution of the profits, and use his specific advantages in status to gradually complete the "dog training" plan.
In the end, all opportunities became opportunities for the state capital, which became the "capital" of Changping Prefecture, and everyone continued to act as a country town without parents.
Perhaps what the teacher above said was a bit extreme, but the audience below nodded one by one.
This is what they have experienced in the past, and it is the result of repeated losses... Trust takes time to accumulate, and reforms also require benefits.
But judging from the current trend, it is impossible for the state capital to give away benefits until it has enough to eat.
The state capital must be wealthy enough to ensure the security of the entire state before cities will truly regard it as their leader.
Now, it really doesn't work.
In this regard, it is useless for the central government to say anything. It is not strong enough to interfere in the internal affairs of the states, and it is even less likely to make the lower-level prefecture-level cities give up their own development.
Perhaps, one day in the future, Changping Prefecture will really complete the integration, and everyone will cooperate in an orderly manner and help each other for mutual benefit, but it will definitely not be done in the short term.
The current situation is that various "unsatisfied" prefecture-level cities bypass the state capital, work together to develop, and then follow the development trend and make a big gamble...
"...Perhaps, at that time, our ancient city would be more suitable to become the state capital, and the ancient city state sounds very pleasant..."
When these things are spoken publicly by lecturers, but the audience below has no opinion at all, I am afraid that these things are destined to become a reality.
Lu Ping'an below was an eye-opener. He really didn't expect that some things had been made public to this extent.
