NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1148
Overall, Liu Zhizhong's impression of Hamuer was quite good.
This person is rather reserved but can handle situations with ease. Compared to other leaders of the four major agencies in the County Committee and County Government, this guy seems particularly outstanding. The other leaders, to be blunt, seem to be eating, drinking, and scheming while just muddling through and waiting to die in a small place.
If only these leaders made a bit of an effort, the small county town of Shanan wouldn't be this dirty and chaotic, right?
Moreover, as Liu Zhizhong traveled here, he found the transportation quite poor. There are fights and brawls on the streets without anyone to manage them; public security relies on self-discipline?
After Zhao Yan became a vegetative person due to his injury, Yangzhou's traffic and security model became the standard, promoted province-wide, even featured on state television. But in such Minority Autonomous State as Dongguang State, it really hasn't been widely implemented here, there haven't been any achievements.
Is Liu Zhizhong lucky or not? Coming to the province's most underdeveloped border minority region, and then in the worst Minority Autonomous County within the state as County Mayor, ranked last in the province—sigh... even on a national scale, I'm afraid there aren't many counties as bad as this.
Liu Zhizhong said, "Director Ha, don't sigh, it's a happy day today, nobody should be sighing. If there's something, just say it straight; I like to hear direct words and also prefer to be straightforward."
Hamuer adjusted his glasses, then exhaled a puff of smoke, "County magistrate Liu, you're very outstanding, quite exceptional, and you're well-known; we all know this. But why did someone as talented as you come to our dilapidated autonomous county? Did you offend someone who is trying to keep you here to muddle through a lifetime? Over the years, incoming cadres, at best managed to get a proper or temporary post in the state and then retired. You... sigh..."
What Hamuer said was indeed true, there was some sympathy for Liu Zhizhong.
Liu Zhizhong could sense this genuine feeling, which was quite nice. In the future, when building a team for work, this is a very good foundation.
At the moment, Liu Zhizhong laughed and said, "It seems, our Shanan County town, having a leader like Director Ha who is full of human warmth, is a fortunate thing for the county!"
Hamuer was a bit embarrassed by the praise and chuckled, "County magistrate Liu, please don't praise me, alright? I'm just like this. Doing work, I try to do what the leaders assign well. If I really can't do it well, then I'm helpless. It's just seeing such an outstanding condition of County Magistrate Liu coming to a place like ours, I feel some regret."
"It's not that bad, it's really not. Revolutionary work is the same everywhere, right? What if somewhere I can step out from Shanan and Dongguang?"
Hamuer's eyes lit up but then dimmed again, shaking his head, "Coming to Dongguang State hoping to step out is unprecedented. In ancient times, our place was a place of exile. Frankly, ninety percent of our leaders here, be it big or small, are descendants of exiled criminals. Including our ancestors, it's the same, haha..."
Liu Zhizhong nodded, "Yes, ancient times conditions here were even harsher; surviving exile here was already tough. But now, with the world's great trends developing well, Shanan shouldn't lag behind, and Dongguang shouldn't continue to be rotten!"
"County magistrate Liu, sometimes saying things is easy, but doing them is hard. Just like how you said you want to live in the County Committee and County Government office; it's also a bit problematic."
