In the second round of the basketball game after class, the four groups led by Yang Siyuan faced off against the five groups led by Cheng Wei, the cheerleader. The result was obvious, and the four groups won without a fight.
Afterwards, Liang Jiangtao accompanied Yang Siyuan back to the dormitory to change clothes. The two got into a black Honda Accord, and the car drove out of the college and headed for a restaurant.
In the car, Yin Hong sat in it.
"It's such an honor to invite two young leaders. Secretary Zhao and Minister Wen are very happy. I will toast you a few more glasses of wine today!" Yin Hong said happily.
"Sister Hong, you are too polite. Secretary Zhao and Minister of Culture came to Jiangzhou, and we have to be the hosts. How can we let you guests make arrangements?" Liang Jiangtao said.
Facing the enthusiastic and beautiful minister from his hometown, he did not call her by her official title bluntly, but called her Sister Hong.
Yin Hong has been telling him to invite him to get together these days, but she has been too busy the past few days, either playing games or writing his manuscripts, and she really doesn't have time.
It was relatively easy today and I finally had time to come out.
After all, he is the leader of the organization department in his hometown, so he still has to give him some face.
What's more, today it's not just Yin Hong, but also Zhao Huadong, deputy secretary of the Huanshan District Committee of Jiang'an City, and Wen Jingtian, the organization director.
It is said that they came to Jiangzhou for a meeting.
It stands to reason that Zhao Huadong is the deputy secretary of the district party committee and the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee and municipal government in the region. His status is at least equivalent to that of the district chief of an ordinary county or city. He does not need to take the initiative to talk to a young man who has just been admitted to the organization department of the provincial party committee. Pretty close.
But he happened to be in a meeting in the provincial capital, and when he heard Wen Jingtian say that he had an appointment tonight with a young fellow who had just been admitted to the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, he thought that he had nothing to do, so he came over to get to know him.
Faced with the enthusiasm of the leaders in his hometown, Liang Jiangtao thought for a while and called Yang Siyuan.
Although today's theme is a gathering among Jiang'an people, Yang Siyuan's father is the municipal party committee secretary of Jiang'an and is considered half Jiang'an, so there is nothing wrong with calling him.
He forgot to ask where Yang Siyuan was from, but he was definitely not from Jiang'an.
Because according to the cadre appointment regulations, several important positions at the prefecture level, city level and below must avoid their place of origin, including secretary, government leader, secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, organization director, public security director, etc.
Upon hearing this, Yang Siyuan agreed readily.
He was not giving face to these leaders of Jiang An, but giving face to Liang Jiangtao.
He has always had a good relationship with Liang Jiangtao.
Although Yin Hong's special car is also a black "official car" and looks calm and majestic from the outside, the interior has a feminine style. There are various beautiful pendants hanging in the car and there is a faint fragrance.
The car soon arrived at a restaurant called "The Source of Ya", a club at the foot of the mountain.
The entire hotel is full of ecological vegetation, rockery scenery, small bridges, flowing water, and winding paths, which is very elegant.
Several people entered the private room, where two middle-aged men were drinking tea and waiting for them.
When they saw them coming in, they all stood up to greet them.
"Secretary Zhao and Minister Wen, these two are my good classmates, Director Liang and Director Yang of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee."
"Well, hello, two young leaders!" Zhao Huadong smiled and shook hands with them.
The same is true for Wen Jingtian.
"Hello, Secretary Zhao, hello, Minister Wen!" Liang Jiangtao and Yang Siyuan also greeted warmly.
It's getting late, so when people arrive, they take their seats and get ready for the banquet.
Liang Jiangtao found that Yin Hong's driver did not follow, and Zhao Huadong and Wen Jingtian's drivers were not inside either. They were probably ordering their own food outside.
In this way, the leader can speak easily and the driver can speak freely.
These drivers are not polite. In addition to not drinking, they can order all kinds of delicious and expensive dishes.
According to the rules of the drinking establishment in Handong, the most distinguished person among the hosts sits in the middle position, called the "host companion", and the most distinguished guests sit on both sides of him.
On the right hand side is position number one, called the "guest of honor", and on the left hand side is position number two, called the "deputy guest of honor."
Zhao Huadong was obliged to sit as the guest of honor. Today there were only two guests, Liang Jiangtao and Yang Siyuan. Naturally, one on each side, Liang Jiangtao was the guest of honor and Yang Siyuan was the deputy guest of honor.
Opposite the main chaperone is the deputy chaperone, and this position can be used by both Wen Jingtian and Yin Hong.
There were no other guests anyway, and the deputy host was just a decoration.
In the end, Yin Hong took the seat, because today's two guests were her classmates and were invited by her, so it was more appropriate for her to sit.
"I know Jiang Tao is from Ningshui, but where is Xiao Yang from?" Zhao Huadong asked.
Yang Siyuan looked like Liang Jiangtao's little follower, and he was not from Jiang'an. Zhao Huadong was obviously "slow" and called him Xiao Yang.
Zhao Huadong thinks there is nothing wrong with this. He is the deputy secretary of the Tangtang District Party Committee, and he is old, almost fifty years old. With young people from the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, there is no need to keep his posture too low.
"I'm from Huangzhou." Yang Siyuan said.
He is introverted and doesn't talk much until he gets acquainted.
"They are all young talents. We are really proud of being able to invite you two today!" Zhao Huadong said.
"Yes, Yin Hong has contributed a lot to this matter. I will give you a credit when I get back so that we can have the opportunity to report our work to the two leaders face to face." Wen Jingtian said.
Compared to Zhao Huadong, his attitude is much more humble.
Because he is an organizational system person, he has a natural sense of awe for the cadres of the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department, and there is indeed a place where he can truly seek to win from them in his work.
The dishes came quickly, with cold dishes first and then hot dishes. The dishes were very exquisite and probably of a high standard.
"Waiter, get some wine dispensers and divide the Wuliangye into a portion." Yin Hong said.
In this era, wine dispensers were not common and were only found in very high-end places.
Wuliangye was considered an entry-level drink on such an occasion, but the guests were only two young cadres, so the price of the wine did not drop much.
"No, Sister Yin, we won't drink today. We will have party day activities tomorrow morning, and we will have group discussions after that."
"Jiang Tao, today is the first time we meet. Let's drink as much as possible. There's no feast without wine!" Zhao Huadong said.
"That's right, let's drink less. The alcohol smell will dissipate when we climb the mountain tomorrow morning. It doesn't matter." Yin Hong also advised.
Tomorrow's party day activity is to climb Martyrs Mountain together.
"Secretary Zhao, Sister Yin, this is really a special situation. Tomorrow our liaison officers still have tasks to take charge of shorthand group exchanges and speeches. We don't dare to fool around. Otherwise, we have to have a drink with several leaders if we don't say anything." Liang Jiangtao said sincerely say.
"I see. In that case, let's have a drink. I'll order some juice." Yin Hong said.
Seeing that Liang Jiangtao cited work as the reason, it was the first time for them to get together, so it was hard to persuade him.
Zhao Huadong felt somewhat displeased, feeling that this guy was a bit too big.
What about the cadres in the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee?
Didn’t you just graduate from college this year?
It takes at least fifteen years to grow up!
And he is already the deputy secretary of the district committee, and may soon become the county magistrate and secretary of the county committee. He personally invited them to dinner without even drinking.
But who is Zhao Huadong? He had practiced to perfection a long time ago, and this thought only flashed through his mind without showing any signs of it.
