The pursuit of a position in officialdom

"Then thank you. You are more prestigious among these reporters. I hope you can put in a few kind words for us so that these reporter friends can speak more for us."

"Secretary Li, you are really a smart man, and you don't forget to win over corrupt people at such a critical time. Well, for the sake of everyone being friends, I will think of a way."

After hanging up Song Xiaoyu's phone, Xiao Xinzheng came in to announce that everyone attending the meeting had arrived. Li Wujiang walked to the conference room at this time.

"I urgently informed everyone to come here for a meeting. I think everyone knows the reason. It is really shameful that such a big thing happened on the eve of the opening of the conference. Just now, Secretary Liu of the Provincial Party Committee personally called to inquire about the matter. He asked us what happened in Guangyuan City I am ashamed of whether we have the ability to hold such a conference. I want to ask everyone here, are we in Guangyuan City ready?" After Li Wujiang finished speaking, he stopped and looked around.

At this time, Ma Zhanqin spoke up and said, "Secretary Li, I apologize to all leaders. Our Propaganda Department did not do its job well and failed to control public opinion, which led to this matter fermenting to this point."

After Ma Zhanqin finished speaking, no one else expressed their stance, and Li Wujiang asked, "Does anyone else apologize?"

At this time, everyone lowered their heads and did not speak. The scene at this time was like a landlord fight. Li Wujiang continued, "I'm really ashamed of some people. It's obvious that I didn't do my job well enough. I didn't take the initiative to admit my mistakes, but instead let the propaganda work take the blame. Today we won't hold people responsible for the time being. Anyone who has any problems can report it to me afterwards." . What we are going to discuss today is how to solve this problem. Director Shang, how are the volunteers with food poisoning now?"

"Secretary Li, most of these volunteers with food poisoning have recovered and been discharged from the hospital. A small number of them are still receiving treatment in the hospital due to their own physical reasons. Their current conditions are stable." reported the Health Bureau's Ying Ding Chunhui.

"Director Zhou, tell me, what is the cause of food poisoning?"

"Secretary Li, since the situation came to light relatively late, we received a report and went to the hotel involved to check, and the meals for that day had been processed. However, we learned from the hospital that these poisoned people were indeed suffering from food poisoning. The specific cause of the poisoning is still unknown to us. We are conducting further analysis. At present, we have closed down the store involved and revoked the business license," said Zhou Bingyi, director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau.

"Minister Zhanqin, can you tell me what the current public opinion situation is like?"

"Secretary Li, after the incident unfolded, we immediately monitored the situation online, arranged personnel to reply and block some negative posts, and used our media to conduct positive reports. For reporters who came to our Guangyuan City to interview, We have a unified voice and unified propaganda.”

"Other leaders have also shared their opinions. At this time, we need everyone to offer their opinions and suggestions. I hope everyone can come up with effective methods."

"Secretary Wujiang, can we contact relevant Internet media and delete relevant posts?" Feng Hongyi suggested. After all, the Internet is a new media, and many government officials are not familiar with it and think it should be deleted.

"Secretary Feng, it's easy to delete an article. After deleting it, someone will publish it again. In some cases, the more articles you publish, the more articles you publish." After all, Ma Zhanqin is in charge of publicity work. The last time he dealt with the emergency at the ambulance station, he still had a certain degree of success. experienced.

"If deleting the post doesn't work, what should we do now? We can give good advice to the journalists from all walks of life and explain the problem clearly to them. I believe they will understand," Wen Kuanhe said.

Seeing that Fan Datong was silent, Li Wujiang took the initiative and asked, "Mayor Fan, if something like this happened, how do you think it should be solved?"

"This incident is not a big deal in normal times, but it happened before the conference, which made us very passive. But no matter how passive we are at this time, we still have to find ways to reverse this passive situation. If we want to reverse it, I think two aspects of work must be done. One is to eliminate the negative impact. How to eliminate it. This requires friends in the media to know that this is just an accident and not to deliberately magnify it. The other is to prove the strength. The exchange conference must be held for a week. Many leaders, If entrepreneurs and foreign friends want to stay in Guangyuan City, food, accommodation and transportation safety are very important. I think it is necessary to conduct thorough inspections of relevant places, especially to monitor food and beverage materials.”

Fan Datong's words made Li Wujiang think that he was still at a certain level and could grasp the key points at critical moments. "Mayor Fan, these two points you just mentioned are very good. How to eliminate the negative effects? Secretary Kuan and Wen will take the lead, and Minister Zhanqin will work together to find a solution. The accommodation and venue are safe, so it's up to Mayor Jianping and Mayor Minghao to work hard. We will conduct thorough investigations to ensure that nothing goes wrong. Secretary Feng and Mayor Kang will discuss the security work, and everyone will do their own thing for a while. , Director Shang and I went to the hospital to see the hospitalized volunteers."

Li Wujiang, accompanied by Xing Dingchun, went straight to the hospital. The hospital leaders knew that Li Wujiang was coming, so they waited for Li Wujiang at the entrance of the hospital early.

"Secretary Li, thank you for coming to see us. We are fine." These poisoned volunteers were very excited when they saw Li Wujiang coming to see them in person.

"I should thank you all. You all volunteered for this event and paid a lot, showing the good social outlook of young people in the new era. We should all learn from you. In addition, the municipal party committee is deeply sorry for your food poisoning. This shows that There are still flaws in our work. I hope you will take good care of yourself in the hospital and recover as soon as possible. We are still waiting for you at the exchange meeting. "

The arrival of Li Wujiang calmed the anger of these volunteers and allowed them to see the sincerity of the municipal party committee and government. They also expressed that this was an unexpected event and would definitely convey a positive image of Guangyuan City to the outside world.

"Dean Dong, in this mass food poisoning incident, have you analyzed where the pathogen came from?"

"Secretary Li, we took food samples from the stomachs of these comrades. Preliminary analysis showed poisoning, but this time the poisoning is rather strange. We analyzed these foods and found that the possibility of poisoning is unlikely. We now suspect that there are pharmaceutical ingredients. At present, it has been Send the samples to the provincial capital for further analysis," Dong Guohong said.

"Okay, you must do a good job of testing and analysis, but the test results must be kept confidential and reported to the municipal committee as soon as possible."

Li Wujiang left the hospital and went straight to the Guangyuan City Hotel. He was going to meet these reporters. If he wanted to calm down the matter, these reporters were the key.

Chapter 675 Online Public Opinion, the Power of New Media

Li Wujiang did not meet these reporters directly, but met with Song Xiaoyu first and listened to her analysis and opinions.

"Reporter Xiaoyu, look at me, I just finished my work and came to see you immediately. This time, no matter what, you have to help Guangyuan City tide over this crisis."

"Looking at Secretary Li's sincere attitude, I will reluctantly do it." After saying this, Song Xiaoyu burst into laughter. "Secretary Li, in fact, this incident in Guangyuan can be big or small, and it can also turn passive into active."

"Oh, then I'll listen to reporter Xiaoyu's opinion."

"Secretary Li, when you Guangyuan hold such a big event, you just need to invite some media friends to help Huayuan with publicity. These reporters come uninvited. Isn't this just free publicity for Guangyuan?"

"My dear reporter, we at Guangyuan want to be publicized, but we want to promote it from the positive side instead of exposing negative issues. If this is the case, our event will be over before it even begins." Li Wujiang said with a wry smile. .

"You are exaggerating. How could such a big event not be held just because of this trivial matter? You are deceiving a child. What I mean is that since these journalist friends are here, Guangyuan City can They become their own people and let them take the initiative to promote Guangyuan City.”

"Of course this is a good thing. I don't know what we should do specifically."

"Actually, it's very simple. If they just want to know the truth of the incident, then you can organize these reporters to go to the scene to observe and collect stories. They saw what they should see. I believe that everyone will not report randomly. I know some My journalist friends have done their job, and I believe they will still give me the favor.”

"Then I would like to thank reporter Xiaoyu here for Guangyuan City. You are always able to lend a helping hand in times of crisis in Guangyuan City. You are the great savior of our Guangyuan City."

Song Xiaoyu was a little embarrassed by Li Wujiang's compliments.

"In this way, we will hold a symposium first. I will meet with these journalist friends, and I will report to them the situation in Guangyuan. Then we will hold a press conference before the event to inform the specific matters of the event. You see How about it?"

"Okay, you have a good image in front of these reporters. If you come out to meet these reporters in person, they will definitely be very happy."

Ma Zhanqin knew that Li Wujiang was going to the hotel to meet these reporters, so he rushed over immediately.

"Secretary Li, thank you for your hard work. Something happened and you were asked to run around and put out the fire for us." Ma Zhanqin said with some embarrassment.

"Minister Zhanqin, let's not be so polite between us. We are all here for work. How is the online public opinion handled? Reporter Xiaoyu is here, maybe she can help."

Song Xiaoyu saw that other leaders were coming, so she didn't speak as brazenly as before. "Secretary Li, you really think highly of me. Now as the Internet becomes more and more developed, online publishing is more of a freedom. Anyone can express speech anywhere. This kind of freedom of speech is Everyone has exercised their power, but due to the lack of review of news content and the low cost of publishing news, various rumors and other untrue information spread everywhere. "

"Look at Minister Zhan Qin, reporter Xiaoyu also has his own unique insights into online news. The Internet in our country has just started, and the Internet will become a part of our lives in the future. Online public opinion supervision will also become an important force for social supervision, and the broad masses of the people The public will make criticisms and suggestions on the operation of the government's public power through online media. Compared with traditional media replacing the public to implement public opinion supervision, the low threshold of online information makes the people truly become the main body of public opinion supervision, which greatly expands the scope of public opinion supervision. The scope of subjects has broadened the channels for the people to express social conditions and public opinions, broken the top-down hierarchical barriers of the traditional supervision system, and greatly enhanced the people's rights to know, express, participate, and be informed," Li Wujiang said. Yes, he took a sip of tea and then said again.

"However, as reporter Xiaoyu just said, the openness of the Internet has also brought about one of its negative consequences, namely the proliferation of false information. It prevents people from obtaining real information, leading people to form opinions that are inconsistent with reality, and in serious cases... It can lead to people's ideological confusion and extreme behavior. The Internet also provides technical conditions for the generation of rumors. Some rumor publishers slander and slander the government and government policies online for various purposes to confuse people. Audio and video, affecting the normal political life of the country. Emotional speech is more prominent in online public opinion. There are many extreme remarks to vent emotions on the Internet, and there are even posts of abuse and personal attacks. If in the process of "supervision", there are extreme. Or if extreme emotional views prevail, the emotions of unopposed group members will be affected and infected by extreme views, resulting in a situation where there is strength in numbers, and the original public opinion supervision will turn into abnormal public opinion violence. . Therefore, the Internet is a "double-edged sword". It promotes the progress of civilization, and it also spreads bad information, often mixed with rumors and dissatisfaction. Therefore, in the face of public opinion supervision, we must add new skills. "

Li Wujiang's speech made Ma Zhanqin and Song Xiaoyu even more impressed. They did not expect that Li Wujiang had such a deep understanding of network supervision.

"Secretary Li is really extraordinary. He understands advanced and fashionable networks so deeply." Ma Zhanqin said with a smile.

"Yes, Secretary Li, how do you know so thoroughly about online supervision? Your remarks may be able to change the business of our traditional media."

Song Xiaoyu's question made Li Wujiang a little embarrassed. He couldn't answer that it was a memory from a previous life. Fortunately, he had an idea and thought of Li Wuwei. "I'm not a prophet. It happens that my brother works in an Internet company. We usually talk a lot and are influenced by him. By the way, speaking of him, I gave him a call to see if he has What can I do?" Li Wujiang dialed Li Wuwei's phone number.

Li Wuwei is now the founder of Tianya.com, so he is the right person to find. He immediately said he would make arrangements now and the results would be available in two hours.

"Minister Zhanqin, are you checking the news on the Internet for any changes in two hours?"

"Secretary Li, you said it can be done in two hours?" Ma Zhanqin couldn't believe it. They had been busy dealing with this matter recently and spent a lot of effort to solve it. Li Wujiang could solve it with just a phone call.

Chapter 676: Capture the reporter, the situation reverses

"I don't know about this either. That's what my unreliable brother said. Let's treat a dead horse as a living horse. You can just check the results online later."

At this time, Xiao Xinzheng came over and told Li Wujiang that the symposium was ready. Li Wujiang took Ma Zhanqin over.

When Li Wujiang came over, he realized that there were quite a few reporters coming this time, thirty or forty people, and the formation was quite large. These reporters were talking to each other, but when they saw Li Wujiang coming, they became quiet.

When Li Wujiang saw that everyone was quiet, he said, "Dear friends from the media, I feel very cordial when I see you all arriving. Originally, Guangyuan City was hosting this Global Small Commodity Exchange Expo, and we planned to send invitations to everyone, but we didn't expect that everyone would arrive in advance. Here we are. On behalf of the Guangyuan Municipal Party Committee and Government, I welcome you all.”

These reporters suddenly felt surprised. They were not here for the exchange meeting, but to expose the problem of food poisoning in Guangyuan City. How could Li Wujiang turn a bad thing into a good thing?

At this time, the scene was a bit cold. Song Xiaoyu took the lead in applauding. As soon as the applause started, the others were embarrassed and started to applaud too.

"Okay, okay, thank you for your applause. Everyone, sit down. We are friends when we sit together today. You are welcome to visit Guangyuan City often in the future. If you have any questions, you can communicate with me."

As soon as Li Wujiang's words came to light, a young male reporter stood up and asked Li Wujiang, "Secretary Li, the purpose of our visit to Guangyuan this time is to investigate and understand the poisoning incident. We hope that Guangyuan City can give the public An explanation." This reporter was aggressive and looked very hostile.

"This reporter friend sat down and said, today is a symposium, and everyone can talk openly. What do you call this reporter? Which unit do you work for?" Li Wujiang asked with a smile.

"I am a reporter from Xinchao.com, and my name is Cheng Fangzhou."

"Reporter Cheng, Xinchao is a good website. I have browsed it. As a leader in Internet media, it has rich news content and a novel layout. It is good. It will definitely lead the industry trend in the future."

Cheng Fangzhou felt a little embarrassed when he saw Li Wujiang praising their website. The rest of the exchange was not so aggressive.

"I think everyone is very concerned about the question asked by reporter Cheng just now. In fact, I am more concerned than everyone else. Because we are the organizer, our purpose is to promote Guangyuan City and let people around the world know about a new Guangyuan. For Our cadres, employees, volunteers, and community service personnel have all put in a lot of hard work. When we are about to see results, something like this happens. We are very sad that such an incident has happened. We in Guangyuan City cannot do anything about it. This also reminds us that safety work is bigger than the sky. We will use this as an opportunity to draw lessons from other cases, find out and fill in the gaps, and ensure that this exchange conference will be a grand event. At the same time, we also hope that all friends from the media will supervise our behavior. "

Li Wujiang's attitude made everyone feel comfortable. Such a big official was not as secretive as other places.

Song Xiaoyu also took the opportunity to ask a question, "Secretary Li, in view of the current situation, what does Guangyuan City plan to do in the future?" After saying that, she looked at Li Wujiang, and then she found that Li Wujiang was also staring at her, and her face suddenly flushed.

"This reporter asked a good question. We cannot avoid problems. The key is to see how to solve them. We in Guangyuan City will start from the following aspects. First, we will seriously investigate and deal with this food poisoning incident. Focusing on key links such as food, accommodation, and transportation, we will learn from it, conduct in-depth investigations, and thoroughly solve existing problems. We have formulated relevant routes and invite media friends to supervise each link. We will also reward those who help us find problems. Second, we will hold a press conference before the event to announce the content of the event and some details. We also hope that everyone can participate. Third, in order to better demonstrate the concept of Guangyuan City's development achievements shared by the people, our Guangyuan City plans to use this exchange event to issue 10 million yuan in consumer coupons so that citizens across the city can share this event. For foreign friends, we will also give big gift packages."

"Secretary Li, you are so friendly to the citizens of Guangyuan City. What do you say to us media people?"

"Don't worry, everyone. In order to thank all media friends for their concern and love for us, we have also prepared big gift packages for everyone." Li Wujiang asked Xiao Xinzheng to bring up the prepared big gift package.

"Everyone, what is in front of you is our Guangyuan City's welcome to you. This time, all media friends come to our Guangyuan City to collect news and reports. We, Guangyuan City, will take care of all the hotel accommodation. In addition, we have prepared a consumption voucher of 1,000 yuan for everyone, so that everyone can share the prosperity with the people of our Guangyuan City. At the same time, we have also prepared a free annual travel card for everyone, and welcome everyone to Guangyuan for tourism."

The media reporters who originally wanted to make trouble were attracted by Guangyuan when they saw Li Wujiang was so generous and frank, and expressed their desire to report Guangyuan City well.

Song Xiaoyu did not expect Li Wujiang to be so good at winning people's hearts. With some small favors, these reporters were used by him.

At the following welcome dinner, Li Wujiang accompanied these reporters to eat together, pushing the atmosphere to a climax.

"Secretary Li, you are not simple. It seems that you have been prepared for a long time." Song Xiaoyu and Li Wujiang whispered while sitting at a dining table.

"Reporter Xiaoyu, with you here, I will give these reporters some face anyway."

The two people said secretly, as if they were having an underground affair.

At this time, Ma Zhanqin got the news that almost all the negative news about Guangyuan City on the Internet had disappeared. This made her look at Li Wujiang with new eyes again. She reported the matter in front of Song Xiaoyu.

"Okay, it seems that my brother is still reliable. It's a good thing that the negative news has disappeared. Let's have a toast to Minister Zhanqin and reporter Xiaoyu."

With Li Wujiang's comfort and interaction, this group of reporters was also very powerful. The next day, major news media announced that Guangyuan City will build a global small commodity capital and create an open, inclusive, innovative and enterprising international metropolis. In addition, Guangyuan City will issue 10 million free consumption coupons, which has also been reported by major media one after another, saying that this is a manifestation of the government's insistence on putting people first, and it is also a popular event for the people to share the fruits of development. Guangyuan has suddenly become a positive example in the country.

"Mayor Fan, Secretary Li has issued 10 million free consumption coupons without prior notice. Where can our Finance Bureau get so much money?" Han Feng, director of the Finance Bureau, cried to Fan Datong.

Chapter 677: To embarrass the secretary is to embarrass oneself

"Why are you crying to me? This is what Secretary Li has decided. You should go to him. If you go to me, I can help you with the money." Fan Datong was also very angry. He also learned from the news media that Li Wujiang had made such a decision. The cost is not the key. The key is that Li Wujiang did not inform him in advance about this matter, which made him extremely uncomfortable. Li Wujiang is now involved in Guangyuan's affairs, which makes him very passive.

"Mayor Fan, you are in charge of government work, and financial work is under your control. You must make decisions for us."
