Chapter 766: Chapter 722: Father’s Crew_1
At this mont, Fang Yuan also followed Li Jupeng out. A mont later, under Li Jupeng’s guidance, a middle-aged man about fifty years old walked in.
Nie Zhenbang also stood up, stepped away from his desk, and with a smile, shook hands with the man. He gestured towards the sofa and then said, “Comrade Binyi, please sit.”
Nie Zhenbang appraised Liu Bingyi. Liu Bingyi wasn’t particularly tall. Among the people of Bashu, his height of about 1.68 ters was considered normal. Right now, he was dressed in a dark suit, a red tie with the emblem of the national emblem, and black leather shoes. His facial features were very regular, with his eyebrows being the most distinctive, slightly inverted, giving off a sort of majesty. His hair was also ticulously grood.
Looking at Liu Bingyi’s dress, Nie Zhenbang got a preliminary impression of him. This man, he thought, seed to be quite straightforward and old-fashioned.
After Li Jupeng had poured a cup of tea for Liu Bingyi, Nie Zhenbang also took his cup and sat on the sofa. He disliked sitting behind his desk to listen to reports; it gave people a feeling of alienation.
Of course, such habits were minor matters, determined by the personal preferences of the leader, and there were no explicit rules regarding them.
...
Looking at Liu Bingyi, Nie Zhenbang smiled and said, “Comrade Binyi, Wuliang City is a well-known alcohol capital in our country. Wuliang Liquor from Wuliang City is nationally renowned, and Wuliang City is also a big taxpayer in our province. It is inseparable from the hard work of the leadership team of the Wuliang City Municipal Party Committee. Initially, I had planned to go and take a look at Wuliang City. I didn’t expect that you, Comrade Binyi, would co here first.”
Nie Zhenbang’s tone was very calm, gradual, and his facial expression gave off a pleasant feeling.
At this mont, in front of Nie Zhenbang, Liu Bingyi did not show any disregard because of Nie Zhenbang’s age. On the contrary, he felt a sense of respect and caution as if facing an elder. Naturally, his tone of speech also exuded respect and caution, saying demurely, “Governor, on behalf of the five million people of Wuliang City, I warmly welco you to co and inspect our work in Wuliang City.”
Liu Bingyi knew this social grace. Nie Zhenbang had just said that he intended to visit. If he failed to seize this opportunity to extend an invitation, he would be showing his lack of social tact.
Hearing this, Nie Zhenbang also chuckled, saying, “Hehe, good, I will certainly co to see. As the first city at the zero kiloter marker of the Dajiang, and situated in one area of our country’s Liquor Golden Triangle, I must co to have a look, and take a close and serious look.”
After that, Nie Zhenbang continued: “Comrade Binyi, is there sothing important for your visit this ti?”
This question signaled that it was ti to get to the main point. Liu Bingyi, with his many years of leadership experience, naturally understood this as well.
At this mont, Liu Bingyi nodded his head, took out a notebook and pen from his briefcase, and then began to speak, “Governor, when Governor Nie was in office, he gave strong support and guidance to the work in our Wuliang City. He also gave a lot of encouragent and help personally. This ti, I mainly ca to report to you about the current economic developnt situation and situation in our Wuliang City.”
Hearing this, Nie Zhenbang raised the corner of his mouth slightly. Could it be that Liu Bingyi was one of the old man’s loyal followers when he was in office in Bashu Province?
From Liu Bingyi’s words just now, it wasn’t difficult to grasp this hint. The “Governor Nie” referred to in that sentence definitely wasn’t him, but his father, Nie Guowei. Liu Bingyi’s implicit aning was that he had received a lot of support from the old man, which also indicated that the old man had trusted him deeply.
Judging from Liu Bingyi’s character and style, thodical and disciplined, it was indeed in line with his father Nie Guowei’s selection criteria. Liu Bingyi should be one of his father’s trusted subordinates. However, why hadn’t his father ntioned anything about this when he took office in Bashu? Regarding the issues of Bashu Province, his father had only talked about so situations of the Bashu Provincial Party Committee and Governnt, which made Nie Zhenbang sowhat confused.
Nonetheless, thinking about it, Nie Zhenbang decided to remain calm and composed for the ti being. So things should not be rushed, a step-by-step approach is more prudent. The saying goes, “You cannot see into a man’s heart any more than into a tree’s heart.” Matters within the system are not as straightforward as making friends at school. People who succeed within the system all have their own unique abilities.
Nie Zhenbang promptly responded with a smile, “Comrade Binyi, that sounds great, I’m eager to hear about Wuliang City’s developnt.”
Not uttering another word, Nie Zhenbang simply sat there with a smile, waiting for Liu Bingyi to speak. Aware of the expectation, Liu Bingyi gathered his thoughts before beginning, “Governor, Wuliang City is the first major city on the ‘zero kiloter’ mark of the Dajiang River. In recent years, the developnt of Wuliang City has principally relied on the Wuliang Liquor Industry Group. In its developnt, the group’s importance and role as the Liquor Capital of Wuliang has been fully leveraged. Additionally, Wuliang City has an abundance of hydroelectric and coal resources. Since ’01, the Junlian coal mine has been included in the national developnt plan… Our city is rich in natural gas resources. Now, we have introduced several national petrochemical enterprises to conduct exploration and mining…Furthermore, with regard to our abundant tourism resources, the international tourism industry is booming. Cities across the country are developing their tourism industries. The Wuliang City Municipal Party Committee and Governnt have made detailed plans… On estimate, the city’s economic growth rate should maintain around eleven percent this year. The city’s GDP strives to rank within the top five in the province.”
Nie Zhenbang had not previously had much understanding of Wuliang City. In fact, since his reincarnation, past mories and experiences have gradually beco irrelevant. Moreover, within his mories, the transition of the national leadership in those years was smooth with no particular incidents. From now on, what Nie Zhenbang relies on completely is his competence.
At this mont, listening to Liu Bingyi’s words, Nie Zhenbang was genuinely shocked by all the advantages of Wuliang City, which he hadn’t anticipated.
After pondering for a while, Nie Zhenbang initially approved of Liu Bingyi’s plans, saying, “Secretary Binyi, I must say, I was quite shocked to hear of Wuliang City’s economic progress. I had not expected Wuliang City, located in southern Bashu, to have such promising developnt. This tells that the Wuliang City Municipal Party Committee and Governnt are a united and compelling team. As the leader, Comrade Binyi, you have made great contributions.”
Nie Zhenbang’s undisguised praise made Liu Bingyi quite shy. Liu Bingyi modestly replied, “Governor, all these successes are due to Governor Nie’s insightful guidance and the leadership of the organization. Only under such conditions could we have achieved these remarkable results.”
Liu Bingyi’s words were sincere. The undertone of his statent was quite blunt, at least, at this mont, Nie Zhenbang could affirm that Liu Bingyi, without a doubt, was part of his father’s elite team.
Smiling and waving his hand, Nie Zhenbang laughed and replied, “Binyi, excessive modesty can be a form of arrogance. You’ll learn over ti that I am not one to shower praises easily. Let’s be realistic. Credit where credit is due. Wuliang City’s current developnt is good. The future planning has also taken into consideration Wuliang City’s resource advantages and characteristics. There’s no exaggeration. This down-to-earth attitude, I am very pleased.”
Nie Zhenbang paused for a mont before steering the conversation in a new direction, “However, there are a few important aspects I think we should pay attention to when speaking of Wuliang City’s developnt.”
This was also very typical. In the system, when subordinates report to the leaders, the leaders will always provide so insights. This was quite normal.
If it wasn’t done this way, how could the leadership’s level and ability be showcased? At this mont, Liu Bingyi also understood, this was the Governor’s instruction.
Right away, Liu Bingyi opened his notebook, picked up his pen, and with great respect said, “Governor, you are an economic developnt expert. Had you not co to preside over Bashu, we couldn’t have dread of having you. Please go on.”
Liu Bingyi’s words were sincere indeed. After all, Governor Nie’s reputation for economic developnt was well-known all over the country. His planning proposal was a culmination of the hard work of the Wuliang City Municipal Party Committee and Governnt. At this mont, Liu Bingyi wanted to hear the opinions of this young Governor who had created miracles in Lzhou and WangHai.
Nie Zhenbang didn’t hesitate, and promptly replied, “Following on from what I just said, Wuliang City’s plan is very good. However, during its developnt, it must fully consider the strategy of sustainable developnt. Wuliang City, as the first city on Dajiang River, has an intimate relationship with the provinces and cities of thousands of miles downstream. Hence the saying, ‘You live on the head of the big river, and I live on the tail. We drink the sa river water.’ This is to be respected in Wuliang City’s economic developnt. Full attention should be paid to environntal protection and emission issues. Setting a good example. This applies to the developnt of the Junlian coal mine and the natural gas resources. Additionally, in the developnt of tourism resources, we must grasp nature, avoid artificial exploitation. Pay attention to natural environntal protection. While developing, we must pay full attention to the construction of the ecological environnt. Economic developnt is very important. However, we should not only focus on the imdiate benefits. What should be left for our offspring decades or even centuries later, should not be a fragnted natural environnt, but a beautiful landscape with mountains and rivers.”
These words left Liu Bingyi sowhat touched. Rumor has it that Governor Nie’s developnt approach is the one most in harmony with nature. Many people within the country harbor doubts. In their opinion, developnt necessitates sacrifices. Isn’t this a case of the impossibility of having both fish and bear’s paw? How could it be balanced?
It seed that Nie Zhenbang was able to sense Liu Bingyi’s doubtful attitude. Nie Zhenbang laughed and said, “Do you have any doubts, Binyi?” (.)
