Chapter 241 The lobby is also nice
It is also possible in the lobby.
A simple sentence.
To Hu Chengsheng, it sounded like thunder. He rushed to Lu An and howled loudly like a dog whose tail was stepped on.
"What's wrong with your brain? These are the district head and the district disciplinary committee secretary, the leaders of the government!"
"Do you think you can just settle for anything like your second uncle?"
"Today it's all because of you, an idiot, that I didn't book a private room. I'll see how you end up offending the boss!"
It has to be said that Hu Chengsheng is really shameless. He actually put the blame on Lu An.
Are you still waiting to see how I end this?
Why should I end it? It's not someone I invited to support me.
But Lu An was too lazy to waste words with such people.
Lu An looked at Li Yongwang, the district disciplinary committee secretary. "Secretary Li, I know you are so busy with work that you must not remember me, but I still remember you clearly. You helped us a lot in the case of Wei Dezheng."
Li Yongwang immediately raised his hand and said, "Director Lu of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, I can't forget a young talent like you even if I want to!"
Li Yongwang complimented him first, and then quietly introduced him to the district chief Zhuang Wenyan beside him.
Zhuang Wenyan then complimented Lu An, and then asked tentatively: "Is this dinner party today yours, Director Lu?"
Lu An nodded and said yes: "Not only me, but also several colleagues from the unit will be here soon."
"I didn't know District Chief Zhuang and Director Li were coming, so I didn't prepare anything."
"The leaders may not understand that the unit has been carrying out party building work recently, requiring state cadres to set an example and resist extravagance and waste, so I feel a little embarrassed in the lobby."
Zhuang Wenyan immediately expressed his support: "As party members and cadres, we should take the lead in resisting extravagance and waste. I think eating in the lobby is a good idea!"
Li Yongwang followed suit and expressed his support.
Lead you this...
Now Hu Chengsheng became conflicted.
Originally, he really hoped that the two leaders could stay and support him, but now he was persuaded by Lu An to stay.
What's going on?
Hu Chengsheng felt as if he had worked so hard just to pretend to be something big for others.
This was indeed the case. After Zhuang Wenyan and Li Yongwang sat down, they both looked for Lu An to talk to, completely leaving Hu Chengsheng aside.
Moreover, the two leaders were very humble, completely different from their previous arrogance in front of Hu Chengsheng.
They kept asking Lu An who he was going to invite to the dinner and which other leaders were going to come.
They also asked what was going on with the party building work and whether there was any news from above.
Although in terms of rank, Zhuang Wenyan and Li Yongwang are both Lu An's leaders.
But power is never judged entirely by the rank of official position. More often it is judged by the distance from the center of power.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be the saying of a seventh-rank official serving as the prime minister’s doorman.
In the modern officialdom, a secretary can serve as half a secretary. The same is true.
Now it's Lu An's turn. Although he is just an ordinary cadre, he is the biggest source of power in the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection.
Don't underestimate this.
In the officialdom, all policies are from top to bottom, and all rumors are blown from top to bottom.
Even though this was just a small dinner party, Zhuang Wenyan and Li Yongwang wanted to ask Lu An about the party building work and whether there were any rumors or actions from above.
Although I have lived two lives, I have always seen the delicate minds of these officials. They can interpret any of your actions, even a punctuation mark, into a thousand-word essay for you.
Therefore, in later generations, there is often a special joke about officialdom on the Internet called "Chinese translation into Chinese", which refers to officials' speculation and interpretation of the intentions of their superiors.
With this ability, no matter how many times I see it, I am completely impressed.
But now Lu An can take advantage of this.
So Lu An told them that a party-building work meeting had been held within the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection a few days ago, attended by all standing committee members including Secretary Fu Hongyuan and Executive Vice Secretary Yan Chengguang.
The meeting was held in response to the increasing number of corruption cases and the extravagant behavior of officials.
"And at the meeting, a cadre from the provincial disciplinary inspection commission was punished on the spot."
"So I'm sorry, both leaders. I'm a coward and I really don't dare to violate discipline at this critical moment."
Lu An was being clever here.
What Lu An said seemed to be correct. Even if they inquired through their own channels afterwards, there would be no discrepancies. It was just that some details might not be the same as they imagined.
If what he said is true, they would think that the meeting was attended by all the standing committee members of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, and that Fu Hongyuan, Yan Chengguang and other leaders of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection were present from the beginning.
However, in reality, Fu Hongyuan and most of the other Standing Committee members came later.
Originally, it was Lu An himself who was to be punished at the meeting. Even the entire party building work meeting was all because of this dish of vinegar-wrapped dumplings of his.
No one would be bored enough to talk about these things outside.
Zhuang Wenyan and Li Yongwang both nodded in agreement. They both said that their awareness was far from as high as Lu An's, and as party members, they should take the lead and set an example.
At the same time, they were very grateful to Lu An for revealing this information to them, which was very important to them.
Watching Lu An chatting so enthusiastically with the two leaders, Hu Chengsheng felt as if he was being cheated on, and his husband was the one doing it, and he had to watch helplessly.
As for the absconding boss Shen Fengwen and the backstabbing manager Deng Weichen, they dared not say a word at all, feeling unbelievable.
Finally, Zhuang Wenyan and Li Yongwang finally brought the topic back to the dinner party. They curiously asked Lu An what was going on with the dinner party today.
"Director Lu, you said that several colleagues from your unit will come here together, right?" Zhuang Wenyan asked.
Lu An nodded and said yes: "Yan Ji'an from the inspection team, I wonder if the two leaders know each other?"
Zhuang Wenyan was a little slow to react, but Li Yongwang, who was also from the Discipline Inspection Commission, immediately gave the answer: "I know, that is a junior whom Secretary Yan trusts very much."
Just one sentence made Lu An certain that Li Yongwang at least had connections in the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. It seemed that his previous caution was right.
Lu An told him that he had another colleague coming, Yan Ji'an.
At the same time, Lu An also said: "It's just that Yan Ji'an is a rather unpredictable person. I'm not sure what kind of friends he will bring. I hope the two leaders will forgive me."
Zhuang Wenyan and Li Yongwang both kept waving their hands to indicate that they didn't mind.
Are you kidding? The friends Yan Ji'an can bring must be extraordinary. They would have to be crazy to care.
Then Lu An pointed to the door: "It seems that Yan Ji'an is here!"
At the entrance of Jianghuai Hotel, Yan Ji'an was seen walking in with a swagger...
