Chapter 963: Chapter 919 Deep Speech Chapter 963: Chapter 919 Deep Speech As Nie Zhenbang finished speaking, Liu Yong suddenly interjected, “Secretary Nie’s speech is profound and hits the mark. The entire province must deeply understand and study the spirit of Secretary Nie’s speech and strictly discipline ourselves. We should be dedicated and diligent in our service to the province’s economic developnt and soaring growth, offering wise counsel and strategic planning.”
Liu Yong’s remarks were entirely bureaucratic and clichéd. Moreover, by interrupting Nie Zhenbang so abruptly, it seed as though he was responding to Nie Zhenbang’s speech. However, Liu Yong’s attitude, which was dismissive of everything else, was clearly on display.
This caused Nie Zhenbang’s brows to furrow. The very reason for convening this working eting and the expanded provincial committee eting was clear to Nie Zhenbang. No matter what, Liu Yong had to show the proper form and deanor at such a large eting. The authority of the party committee’s top leader had to be upheld. This was a hard rule, even if Liu Yong were on his way out.
It wasn’t just a matter of being willing to take a few knocks. If any issues arose, Liu Yong absolutely wouldn’t be able to walk away unscathed. But Liu Yong had done it nonetheless. Certainly, Liu Yong’s expression was clever, seemingly following the path set by Nie Zhenbang. As for how sincere he was about this, it was unknown.
But let’s not discuss that for the mont. Just the fact that Liu Yong had spoken so directly already demonstrated his limited respect for Nie Zhenbang.
Nie Zhenbang offered an embarrassed smile, unconcerned. As an old comrade, he naturally had the temperant of one. Besides, if he were to make an issue of it, it would instead give the impression that he was petty and small-minded, and that he lacked the deanor and vision expected of his position.
After pausing for a mont, Nie Zhenbang said with a smile, “Governor Liu’s words are of a high standard and very well spoken. As the saying goes, ‘If the generals are weak, the army is weak.’ The successful construction of Hongjiang Province naturally relates to us leaders. We must accurately understand and fully grasp the current economic situation and conditions, make decisions according to the circumstances, and work hard to enhance Hongjiang’s economic developnt.”
Nie Zhenbang’s response was forthright and, in doing so, he managed to turn the tables. The saying ‘If the generals are weak, the army is weak’ was clearly ant for Liu Yong. As for Zhang Tianyue, he was already incapacitated by a stroke, hence no longer a concern.
Nie Zhenbang then shifted the tone of his speech to a serious note, “Comrades, since taking office in Hongjiang, my feelings have been profound. At this mont, I have many emotions to express. Sumd up, they can be encapsulated in four statents: First, absolute obedience. I will resolutely comply with the organization’s arrangents, firmly support the organization’s decisions, and as I said yesterday, I am delighted to have the opportunity to work in Hongjiang. Second, heartfelt gratitude. Since graduating from university and embarking on my career, from the impoverished areas of the northwest to the eastern coast, my journey has been step by step. Everything I have cos from the Party and the people; my life belongs to the Party and the people. My gratitude and desire to give back to the Party and the people are etched on my heart and lded into my blood. Today, as I’ve co to work in Hongjiang, I hope the cadre at all levels in Hongjiang understand , trust , support , and help . We should be united in heart, sharing both joys and sorrows. In difficult tis, comrades give strength; in exploration, comrades offer wisdom. For the help and support of the comrades, I will forever hold every bit in my heart and never forget. Third, practical guarantees. As I officially assu the leadership position in Hongjiang, I solemnly promise to the Party organization, as an ordinary Communist Party mber: I guarantee lifelong learning, lifelong self-improvent, lifelong service to the people, and lifelong integrity. Fourth, earnest hope. I have three hopes for my comrades working in Hongjiang, and I share them with you for our mutual encouragent. First, rember the ‘three knowings.’ As leaders, ‘be grateful to the organization and strive to repay it, be content and happy within oneself, and know your comrades to utilize their strengths.’ Second, achieve the ‘three never-forgets.’ Hongjiang is the birthplace of the revolution and was where the Party and national leaders, the older generation of proletarian revolutionaries, lived and fought. Nanxun Chief himself left a deep footprint here in the Hongjiang region. With 40 million hardworking and honest folks in Hongjiang, every comrade working here should ‘never forget the elderly, always love the Party; never forget our seniors, always love the country; never forget the common people, always cherish the people.’ Third, accomplish the ‘three goods.’ I sincerely hope that all cadres and the masses in the province will rally even more closely around the central Party led by Comrade Qiao Yiren as the General Secretary, further adhere to the principle of the Party for the public and governing for the people, make the leadership teams at all levels even stronger and better; further implent the scientific developnt approach, fostering faster and better economic and social developnt in Hongjiang; and further focus on people’s welfare and benefits, making the lives of the people in Hongjiang richer and better!”
After these words, applause erupted throughout the venue. This speech was unlike the one from the day before. Yesterday’s inaugural address was standard form, whether it was the intention or the the; it was all very low-key.
But today, Nie Zhenbang’s summary of these points—four statents, three knowings, three never-forgets, and three goods—was strikingly impactful.
Liu Yong appeared very composed, yet he was also sowhat shaken and surprised internally. Nie Zhenbang’s level of scholarship, governing ability, and political acun should indeed not be underestimated.
At this mont, Liu Yong even felt so anticipation; he was actually curious to see, under Nie Zhenbang’s guidance, how the work would unfold and what kind of developnt Hongjiang would achieve.
As for the working eting, the discussion and research naturally revolved around theoretical matters. Under Nie Zhenbang’s direction, the focus for Hongjiang’s future economic construction and direction wasn’t specifically addressed. The main ideas and range of discussion centered around studying the spirit of the twenty-first National Congress and deeply learning from President Qiao’s speech at the Central Economic Work Conference.
…
By noon, the eting had just concluded.
Nie Zhenbang picked up his belongings and walked out. anwhile, the Provincial Committee Secretary-General Xu Hongzhuan was preparing to follow him. However, Li Wei, the Publicity Departnt Head at the Provincial Committee, caught up with him instead, “Secretary-General.”
Xu Hongzhuan turned to look at Li Wei and then, smiling, said, “Minister Wei Ran, is there sothing you need?”
Li Wei smiled back and the two naturally walked to the side. Only then did Li Wei say, “Secretary-General. Is it that I can’t have a chat with you, old pal, if there’s no pressing issue?”
Speaking of which, Li Wei then brought up another matter, “Secretary-General, regarding Secretary Nie’s speech, how should the Propaganda Departnt handle its reporting?”
As the head of the Propaganda Departnt, Li Wei was in charge of the entire province’s propaganda work. Among this, the developnt and construction of broadcasting and television affairs were incidental; the main task was still with Party and governnt departnts, particularly propaganda work for Party and governnt leaders.
Xu Hongzhuan was quite familiar with Li Wei. The two of them were, from a certain perspective, in awkward positions. Previously, both were considered part of Zhang Tianyue’s faction. Xu Hongzhuan did not need to be ntioned specifically. If it wasn’t for Zhang Tianyue’s trust, Xu would not have been promoted to where he was now. Although Li Wei was a bit better off, it was not by much. Now, it was clear that Li Wei was eager to gain Secretary Nie’s approval and trust through this matter. However, without a close relationship, Li Wei naturally had so worries. Propaganda work may seem simple, but in practice, it is quite difficult. Sotis, too much or too little are both problematic, and the main issue is to grasp the leader’s preferences. Understanding the level of detail the leader likes is key to knowing how to manage.
However, Xu Hongzhuan himself was in the dark. As for what level of detail Secretary Nie preferred for propaganda, Xu had no clear understanding. At this ti, what could Xu offer?
At a ti like this, Xu would definitely not admit his ignorance. Doing so would blatantly tell others that he had not yet gained the Secretary’s approval.
After a pause, Xu Hongzhuan reflected deeply. In preparation for Secretary Nie’s arrival, he had specifically studied so materials about Nie’s political career.
However, those materials only revealed the facade, the true intentions were unknowable. After all, the environnt is different, and the surrounding situation is different; a person’s ntality might also change. Being in a harmonious place is completely different than being in a place with a delicate situation.
Now, with Li Wei putting it this way, Xu Hongzhuan found himself in a difficult position. If he spoke well, he would not receive any reward; if he misspoke, he would naturally incur Li Wei’s resentnt. It was completely a thankless task.
After another pause, Xu Hongzhuan responded with a smile, “Minister Wei Ran, you’re engaging in classic ‘carving a mark on the boat to find the sword’. In the field of propaganda, you are the real expert. Asking is like a blind man feeling an elephant, isn’t it?”
With that said, Xu Hongzhuan smiled and continued, “Minister Wei Ran, personally, I think it’s best to be down-to-earth and pragmatic. Of course, this is just my suggestion, for your consideration only.”
At this mont, Li Wei felt as if a light had turned on upon hearing Nie Zhenbang’s words and promptly said, “Secretary-General, you’re too kind. You go ahead with your tasks; I won’t disturb you any longer.”
After receiving this information, Li Wei did not dare to delay. As soon as he returned to the fifth-floor office area of the Publicity Departnt, Li Wei imdiately summoned several deputy ministers. After assigning tasks, he said seriously, “Comrades, this is the first propaganda task of the Publicity Departnt after Secretary Nie’s appointnt. Everyone must be focused and make an effort with the utmost importance and diligence to complete thorough and detailed work. Deputy Minister Shi will personally be responsible for the press release in the ‘Red River Daily’ and other newspaper dia. Deputy Minister Cai will personally oversee the television dia. Particular attention must be paid to images, visuals, subtle actions, and speeches. Before two o’clock in the afternoon, we need to have draft samples ready. At that ti, I will personally report to Secretary Nie for instruction.” (
