Life Reset: I’m the Master in the Officialdom

"We warmly welcome Minister Zhao to our Bengang City to inspect and provide work guidance! The Provincial Party Committee Organization Department has always been a strong backing for our cadres. It is like a mother's home! So, Minister Zhao, you must come and see us girls who have already 'married' often!" Sun Yiguo said politely with a smile on his face.

You know, even though Sun Yiguo has a very prominent background, he did not dare to show any disrespect or impoliteness in front of the provincial party committee member and organization minister.

After all, even on key issues such as personnel adjustments of many cadres, Sun Yiguo must humbly seek the valuable opinions of Minister Zhao.

Moreover, Zhao Lei has a clear advantage in age. According to his current development trend, if he is promoted further in the future, even with the most conservative estimate, he will at least be able to serve as a deputy secretary.

From this we can see that the position of Organization Minister is of great value, which is self-evident.

At this moment, Zhao Lei smiled slightly, and then said: "Comrade Yiguo, you are really praising me too much! In fact, the main reason I came here today is to send a capable person to your municipal party committee and government! Come, come, let me introduce you formally, this is Comrade Wentao!" As he said, Zhao Lei turned his gaze to Wentao beside him, and waved gently in the direction of Gao Hanlin and Sun Yiguo.

"Secretary Gao, Mayor Sun, I'm here to report to you two leaders! In the future work, I hope you two leaders can give me more advice, criticism and guidance!" Wen Tao said politely with a seemingly humble and polite smile on his face.

In fact, he knew very well that the provincial party committee leaders were present at the moment. Even if he was reluctant to be so insincere and polite, he still had to do the necessary superficial work, even if it was just a pretense, he had to pretend to be respectful.

However, before Gao Hanlin could express his opinion or attitude, Sun Yiguo couldn't wait to interrupt him and said, "Hey! Comrade Wentao was my old classmate in the Handong Province Young and Middle-aged Cadre Training Program! Now that Bengang City has welcomed such an outstanding person like Comrade Wentao, I believe that all our work will surely make greater progress and reach new heights in the future!"

Hearing this, Wen Tao couldn't help but frown slightly. If he hadn't already known Sun Yiguo, he might have been fooled by Sun Yiguo's servile and fawning attitude!

Furthermore, judging by the current situation, the position of Gao Hanlin, the number one figure in Bengang City, seemed to be becoming somewhat shaky. It had been quite a while, and Gao Hanlin hadn't even gotten a word in.

Of course, everyone knows that these so-called words of mutual flattery are nothing more than a common tactic in workplace social interactions. Just like Wen Tao at this moment, isn’t he trying his best to pretend to be a law-abiding person in front of the provincial party committee leaders?

There is no need to talk about Sun Yiguo. He grew up in the prosperous capital city since he was a child, and heard and saw all kinds of human relationships and social interactions all day long.

In addition, he has been involved in officialdom for a long time and has been on the road of "official career" many years ahead of himself. Naturally, he has already mastered those business tactics of mutual flattery to the pinnacle and perfection!

At this moment, everyone around him turned their attention to Wentao, some with a hint of disdain. In their eyes, Wentao was just a young brat.

At the age of 24, he was able to easily become a deputy department-level leading cadre. Such an achievement is really enviable and makes people jealous.

It was the beautiful Tian Xinxin, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and Minister of Propaganda. The look she gave Wentao was different. Not only did it contain a hint of curiosity, but it also seemed to reveal a hint of indescribable "desire".

After all, most young people like Wentao are still just working in the office quietly, carrying thermoses and boiling water for everyone!

But who could have imagined that he would have suddenly become the Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, standing on equal footing with everyone present, perhaps even one level higher? How could such a gap not make people feel annoyed and unacceptable?

Moreover, the fact that he was able to hold the position of Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee at such a young age undoubtedly made others feel a strong sense of crisis. Because everyone knew that the next stop for a Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee was often the mayor, and there was a possibility of even higher positions.

And now there is such a "perverted player" who seems to have used cheats. How easy will it be for them to "enter the team" in the future?

Immediately afterwards, the city-wide leading cadres meeting was held in accordance with the schedule.

At this meeting, Zhao Lei, member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Minister of Organization, solemnly announced the decision to appoint Wen Tao as the full-time deputy secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. At the same time, he also launched a series of praises for Comrade Wen Tao that could be described as "commercial flattery."

He listed in detail Wentao's past work achievements and outstanding performance, emphasizing that he has outstanding leadership skills and profound political qualities, and believed that he will be able to take on the new position and make greater contributions to local development.

After the meeting concluded successfully, Minister Zhao Lei chose to stay in Bengang City for lunch.

After all, this was the official appointment of a deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, so the necessary decency and respect should be accorded. Thus, the group walked directly to the Bengang Hotel.

The Bengang Hotel is strategically located across from the Bengang Municipal Party Committee and Government Building, just a few hundred meters away. Judging from its exterior, its decoration is very luxurious and impressive, and its quality is undoubtedly high.

When going upstairs, Wentao deliberately observed the consumption standards of Bengang Hotel and was secretly shocked. The cheapest table for ten people cost 688 yuan, and the room cost four or five hundred yuan a night.

There were two large tables in a room. Each table could accommodate about 30 people. Members of the municipal party committee and municipal government team sat at one table with Minister Zhao Lei, and the main leaders of other municipal agencies sat at another table.

As soon as they sat down, Gao Hanlin finally had his chance to speak. He introduced the members of the Bengang Municipal Leadership Team to Wentao: Zhang Dong, Chairman of the Municipal People's Congress Standing Committee, Wang Songjiang, Chairman of the Municipal CPPCC, Sun Shuo, Executive Vice Mayor, Tian Xinxin, Minister of Propaganda, Zhai Yanjun, Minister of Organization, Pan Linyuan, Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, Liu Li, Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, Guan Penghe, Minister of United Front Work, and Wang Hongliang, Minister of Armed Forces...

Although Gao Hanlin took the initiative to introduce, his tone was very stiff. The team members at the table did not seem to be very fond of the municipal party secretary. They all greeted Wentao stiffly for the sake of their leader's face.
