Chapter 1463 - 1463
The City Environmental Protection Bureau indeed dispatched several teams of staff, and the remaining leaders and staff naturally had to welcome the Acting Mayor to inspect their unit.
The Acting Mayor emphasizes both economic growth and environmental protection, which is a matter of philosophy. The Deputy Minister of the City Committee's Propaganda Department, of course, follows Liu Zhizhong and has to make some arrangements and work in publicity.
But this Deputy Minister, along with the Party Secretary and Director of the Environmental Protection Bureau, privately told Acting Mayor Liu about the situation, saying that this might not be good! You, Acting Mayor Liu, have just assumed the role of acting mayor and are already confronting Mayor Zuo head-on. Not to mention that Mayor Bai of Big Market is not in Huayang; what is this move, what is the purpose?
The Deputy Minister of the Propaganda Department even said, "Mayor Liu, you don't even know how to manage this publicity. If Mayor Zuo and Mayor Bai find out, this is not only targeting Baoge but also targeting them. That's really too passive, so why do it?"
"Yes, Mayor Liu, you're putting yourself in a disadvantageous position! You surely know much about the ways of officialdom; you must think it over! There's still time to withdraw the working group now."
"Mayor Liu, it's not easy for you either, so why get involved in such a mess..."
"Mayor Liu..."
"..."
Everyone was talking back and forth, constantly persuading, mostly out of concern.
However, Liu Zhizhong was very determined and shook his head in denial, "Baoge entering Daxi is an environmental issue; now, have they become unscrupulous instead of emphasizing environmental protection? It's not possible. I appreciate everyone's concern, and if anything happens, I'll bear it alone."
At this point, what more could they say? That's it, that's it... Some officials still thought to themselves, it's really youthful impulsiveness, bound to suffer losses.
Approaching lunchtime, Liu Zhizhong and a group of officials didn't go to a hotel for a meal; instead, they had a working lunch together in the cafeteria of the Environmental Protection Bureau. Haha, the propaganda officers from the City Committee's Propaganda Department who accompanied them took photos and videos, which could be used as positive publicity for the acting mayor's assumption of office. There's content now, haha...
Originally, the Environmental Protection Bureau had arranged for lunch, indeed at a big hotel outside, with fine wine and good food. But with Liu Zhizhong's request for a working meal, they had no choice but to cancel the order and accompany Liu Zhizhong to eat here.
Moreover, Liu Zhizhong said he would pay later and couldn't let the cafeteria operate at a loss.
Sigh... Some people secretly called him a fool; what new trend is he trying to set? Does he intend to bring Shanan's practices to Daxi City?
It seems that with the advent of Acting Mayor Liu Zhizhong in Daxi City, the days of feasting and revelry are feared to be over! In officialdom, who wants to eat coarse food and live tough lives? When inspecting or visiting places, who doesn't want to eat well and have a good time?
Yet what Liu Zhizhong brings is a sense of loss on the level of enjoyment, hey~~~~
However, the cafeteria of the Environmental Protection Bureau still has to make food, right? And Liu Zhizhong declined any special treatment, firmly refusing to have a private kitchen. To the civil servants and staff below, this truly won the public's heart, haha...
The accompanying leaders, eating ordinary meals, sighed that the taste couldn't compare to a big hotel's, nor could it compete with a unit's private kitchen, but they still had to smile and chat with Liu Zhizhong.
While eating and chatting, the workgroup from the Environmental Protection Bureau sent back the news that the situation had escalated...
