Chapter 1332: Be the First to Strike

tes, which is worth learning from us.” 。I will definitely pay attention to the matters that Secretary Lu has entrusted me with. 。"At this point, it seems like you've agreed to use Xiao Zheng." 。Lu sai...Regarding Yudu Shangyou County, there's no consensus yet on whether to release or hold back floodwaters. Suddenly, the news broke that "Mei Li Hotel" was hit by a tornado! One wave hasn't calmed down before another one arises! Xiao Zheng couldn't help but worry for Secretary Xiong, wondering how he would handle this situation! Seeing Secretary Xiong calmly seated, he showed no strong reaction to Ni Pingtao's new information. Instead, he asked, "How serious is the situation" Ni Pingtao answered directly, "Secretary Xiong, the situation is very bad." 。With the onslaught of a tornado, the Mei Li Hotel lost power throughout the entire building. Over 150 guests, waiters, and managers were trapped on floors 105 to 108, including guest rooms and the breakfast restaurant!

Over a hundred people were trapped in the skyscraper! Xiao Zheng took a deep breath in his heart. What kind of emotions would those trapped people be experiencing up there If something happened to these people, don't even mention the tragedy of everyone perishing, even if half of them were affected, what a serious consequence it would be!

However, Xiao Zheng also warned himself that at this time, he could not consider the feelings of those trapped, nor could he consider his own interests. He should focus on how to solve the problem. Dealing with it in an impartial and rational manner, without personal emotions, was the only way to shoulder the heavy responsibility of rescuing people from fire and water. 。At critical junctures, it's when leaders' abilities are truly tested!

Although Xiao Zheng wasn't the leader here, he had already developed a reflex-like response, starting to think of countermeasures. His eyes were firm, and his expression naturally radiated fighting spirit!

Secretary Xiong was initially startled by the number of over 150 people. He was truly restless. If all these people got into trouble, although it wasn't his fault, he would definitely have to move on! The stakes were high, making Secretary Xiong uneasy. His mind was in disarray, and his gaze inadvertently landed on Xiao Zheng's eyes. They were resolute, courageous, and fearless. Secretary Xiong's heart jolted!

In this situation, Xiao Zheng could still remain so composed. As the provincial Party secretary, how could he not be able to do the same!

Thinking this way, Secretary Xiong's mind calmed down. He slowly picked up his teacup, sipped it thoughtfully, and looked at Ni Pingtao: "Secretary Ni, which leaders from the city have arrived at the scene" Ni Pingtao replied: "The district Party secretary and mayor of Haigang District are already at the scene! Deputy Mayor Zhao Yijian is on his way there." 。Secretary Xiong listened very carefully and then asked, "What about your Mayor Luo Ming" Ni Pingtao replied, "Mayor Luo is in the city, overseeing the situation." 。“Bear’s voice was calm, but her meaning was very serious: “Is this a time when we need to take charge Of course, if Mayor Luo can solve the problem by staying at his post, I have no objection.” 。Ni Pingtao naturally understood what Xiongqi meant, and immediately said, “Secretary Xiong, I will call Comrade Luoming right away and ask him to rush to the scene.” 。"Regarding the work in your city, Secretary Ni has taken charge of the arrangements." 。"Bear Flag turned and asked again, “I have one more question>>>" 。You just said that there were over 150 people trapped on floors 105 to 108 of the Meili Hotel. Although the hotel lost power, there should always be emergency stairs, right Why didn't they escape through the emergency stairwell"

"This..." Ni Pingdao couldn't answer for a moment! After he received a call from Mayor Luo Ming just now, he didn't have time to ask... 。In fact, the issue of Xiongqi is indeed a question. 。Descending from over a hundred layers of safety stairs was extremely tiring, but escaping for your life always comes first! Why were these people still trapped up there Why didn't Ni Pingtao ask in detail back then

Those around him, including Xiao Zheng, also felt that Secretary Xiong's question made sense. They just hadn't thought of it before. 。Visible, at this urgent moment, Secretary Xiong's mentality is still very calm and his thinking is very clear. 。Ni Pingtao finally replied: "Secretary Xiong, I didn't have time to ask about this detail just now." 。I'll call and find out right away. 。”

“先不用了。"Xiong Qi said, 'Secretary Ni, since Mayor Luo Ming is going to stay in the city, it's better for you to go to the scene and get a clear understanding of the situation.'" 。“The sarcasm and criticism are all there.” 。Ni Pingtao couldn't sit still at the meeting either, saying, "Yes, Secretary Xiong, I'll go to the scene right away!" Xiong Qi said again, "If there are any difficulties in the city that need support from the province, please report to me as soon as possible!" This sentence once again reflected the province's concern and support for the city. Ni Pingtao's mood finally improved a bit: "Yes, Secretary Xiong, I'll set off first." 。Saying that, he quickly glanced at the other people at the table, gave a hasty nod of greeting, and then strode out of the conference room. 。Ni Pingtao came out of the provincial Party committee building, and his secretary immediately stepped forward to help open the door to his chauffeured car. Ni Pingtao got into the car and dialed Mayor Luo Ming's phone: "Mayor Luo, where are you now" There was also the sound of wind and rain on Luo Ming's side. Only Luo Ming replied: "Secretary Ni, I am on my way to Meili Hotel..." 。Given the seriousness of the situation, I think it's best if I go to the scene myself. While you're attending the meeting in the province, I'd feel more at ease knowing I'm there. 。Just a few minutes away 。。Ni Pingtao said: "Then let's see each other later." 。"I'm on my way there too, Secretary Xiong is very concerned, and we must reach the front line to command the rescue!"

Luo Ming listened secretly relieved that he had already set off, he said: "Okay, I'll wait for you at the Mei Li Hotel!" Ni Pingtao said "Good" and hung up the phone. 。Looking out the window, the wind and clouds are swirling, with few pedestrians. This is in stark contrast to the bustling city scene of a busy market that one would normally expect. 。Ni Pingtao sighed inwardly. This year, there was not only a financial crisis but also disastrous weather, both having a huge impact on the economy. The days ahead wouldn't be easy, and the year-end data would take a nosedive! Being the mayor wasn't as glamorous as people imagined.

A drop becomes a stream, a stream becomes a river, many rivers flow into the sea, the water of the river rolls… The surging river water from upstream fiercely slammed against the Hai Xinsha Island, rising visibly. The sound of the water hitting the shore, "whoosh whoosh whoosh," also made the residents of Jiang Jing Villa uneasy. 。At today's meeting of the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee, many leaders received text messages from family and friends expressing concern about the rapid rise of the Pearl River. They asked when the provincial government would take measures to stop upstream flooding. They urged that every effort be made to prevent the floodwaters from eroding Haixinsha Island!

The leaders present were unable to offer any solutions or satisfactory answers to their families and friends at this time. 。Because the province hasn't made a clear decision yet about upstream flood diversion and water storage. 。So, these leaders could only reply with "wait a moment," "I don't know yet," or simply nothing at all. 。"Alright, for the rescue efforts at Meili Hotel, let the Yue City Committee and Municipal Government handle it first." 。As the main leaders, we must all shoulder the responsibility of defending our territory and take it seriously! We must stand firm in our duties and fulfill our obligations. 。Of course, when needed, the Provincial Committee and Provincial Government will certainly provide the greatest support. 。But one thing is clear, we must be responsible and do our best down below! Like the mayor of Yue City, staying in the city at this time, is that doing our best Is that putting people first!"

At this point, Xiong Qi couldn't help but get a little emotional. 。He didn't know that Luo Ming had already set off to the scene. Ni Pingtao hadn't reported this news to Xiong Qi either, so he naturally wasn't aware of it. Therefore, his impression of Luo Ming was not good. 。

Xiongqi didn't want everyone to see how emotional she was, so she brought the conversation back: "Now, let's continue discussing flood prevention and rescue efforts." 。Just now, the Hydrological Bureau, Meteorological Bureau, and Water Resources Department have reported some data. I believe everyone understands it better now. 。Now, the provincial government needs to come up with a concrete suggestion. Should the upstream continue to discharge water or store it Governor Fan, what's your take"

Xiongqi once again posed this question to himself. Fan Qihang suppressed the resistance in his heart, moved his body from the back of the chair, he was slightly plump, thick front and back, forming an arc from his neck to his back, and spoke with a strong voice, "Secretary Xiong, the final decision on whether to discharge or store water still needs to be made by the Standing Committee collectively." 。But, for the convenience of the provincial government, it is suggested that the upstream five counties close their floodgates to store water and protect the major cities responsible for economic development downstream from this flood. Protecting key cities will ensure stability in Guangdong Province. Similar situations have occurred before, and we have followed this approach. 。Of course, this is the opinion of myself and the provincial government, but the final decision rests with the Provincial Committee. 。As soon as Fan Qihang said this, many leaders at the scene nodded in agreement. Especially those who lived on or had houses on Haixinsha Island, their hearts were relieved. 。In a collective, everyone besides the duties they are obliged to fulfill, also more or less inevitably has some private interests. 。When things are going well, I think about how to take more and do less. When danger comes, I think about how to escape quickly and minimize losses. 。These are all human nature, coming from the depths of humanity, and that is precisely why we need systems to regulate them. 。Seeing the situation today, Xiao Zheng understood more clearly from a text message he received earlier about the sapling. Most of the leaders here seem to favor upstream flood storage, blocking the flood peak. 。Fan Qihang's opinion was clear. Several Standing Committee members beside him also spoke up, saying that the upstream counties must hold back the floodwaters, otherwise, the Guangdong Triangle would be unimaginable, and the losses would be immeasurable!At this time, a cadre suddenly stood up and said: "Dear leaders, I have a different idea" 。I would like to give you an update. 。Xiao Zheng involuntarily looked at the cadre. The man was wearing a white shirt and black trousers, a common outfit in the government. He was of medium height and slightly thin, with a flat head, dark skin, and a serious expression. 。He was sitting at a row of tables on the periphery, clearly not a provincial leader. 。Fan Qihang saw this person and his mouth twitched again, his expression clearly displeased. 。Bear Flag said, "Comrade Miao Zhijian, if you have any opinions, just say them." 。Mu Zhijian is the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee of Qingliu City. 。 。Once the provincial committee decides to implement upstream flood storage and detention, Qingshui City will be the first to be inundated. 。thing had pierced his heart. But this pain was quickly covered by something else. He said, "If I cared about this, how could I do politics" "If I cared about this, how could I do politics" Chen Hong...
