Chapter 1190 Familiar Road

Wang Jianming considered it and decided to accept the on-site interview. For him, being on the front line of flood control and commanding the work was a plus. At this time, he also needed to say a few words to calm people's hearts and boost morale.

Of course, the content of the interview still needs to be considered. Qin Zhengyang is responsible for communicating with Zhao Xiaohui, who is interviewing.

As a star female anchor in Dongzhou, Zhao Xiaohui has also taken on the important task of interviewing local leaders many times in the past. She has rich interview experience and is very clear about what to ask and what not to ask. The same event will have different effects from different reporting angles. The on-site report of Dongzhou TV Station is based on the theme of united efforts to fight floods and flood control, praising the enthusiasm and bravery of the people of Dongzhou, and praising the wisdom and decisiveness of the leaders of Dongzhou, who led by example.

This interview went very smoothly. Wang Jianming originally gave Zhao Xiaohui 20 minutes, but because the conversation was quite pleasant, the interview lasted for 40 minutes.

When Wang Jianming left for the next inspection point, the flooding in the Baiquan underground tunnel had been alleviated, but the rain had not stopped. Wang Jianming raised his wrist to check the time. There was still an hour before the rain stopped as predicted by the meteorological station.

Qin Zhengyang saw his inner anxiety and whispered: "Secretary Wang, I just confirmed that the rain will stop this morning."

Wang Jianming said: "These underground tunnels in Dongzhou City must be renovated as soon as possible. Why has such an obvious problem been left until now?"

Qin Zhengyang said: "It is mainly related to the railway department. A reasonable plan must be put forward. The issue of renovating the underground tunnel is raised almost every year, but in the end it is left unresolved."

Wang Jianming said: "I don't care about others. I must solve this problem during my tenure."

Qin Zhengyang looked at Wang Jianming with admiration. Wang Jianming is a practical person. As long as he finds a problem, he will solve it immediately.

Qin Zhengyang said: "All the places with waterlogging have been assigned additional personnel to clear the water as soon as possible. The waterlogging should be relieved soon after the rain stops. I believe that after the leaders of the Disaster Reduction Committee arrived in Dongzhou, the society has returned to normal order."

Wang Jianming sighed, then shook his head: "Good news doesn't go out, but bad news spreads a thousand miles. Do you think everyone is deaf?"

Qin Zhengyang said: "There are unexpected events in the world. No one can control such things. I checked the information. During this period, Dongzhou has not experienced such rapid rainfall in nearly 50 years."

Wang Jianming said: "No need to find excuses. In the final analysis, it is because we did not do our job well."

Qin Zhengyang nodded and fell silent.

Wang Jianming said: "I will go to Han County to inspect the flood situation in the afternoon. Comrade Li Xiying will be responsible for the Disaster Reduction Committee."

Qin Zhengyang was stunned for a moment. Wang Jianming's words clearly meant to avoid the meeting. It should not be a spur-of-the-moment idea. It should be that he did not want to meet with the inspectors of the Disaster Reduction Committee.

The Disaster Reduction Committee arrived an hour later than scheduled. The sudden rain caused a large-scale delay in the high-speed rail passing through Dongzhou East.

When the inspection team got off the train, the rain had stopped. Li Xiying, who was in charge of reception in Dongzhou, led the reception team members to the high-speed rail station to greet them.

Secretary Zhou shook hands with the reception staff one by one. He saw Xu Chunliang in the crowd and nodded with a smile.

Li Xiying introduced their itinerary to Secretary Zhou. Their first stop was to Yizhao, which was located in the new city.

Secretary Zhou said that they planned to live in Erzhao. Considering that Erzhao was located in the old city, most of the units they were going to inspect were located in the old city, and it was convenient to travel.

Li Xiying felt something was wrong, but she could only follow the leader's opinion. In fact, they had already made a plan before. After all, Secretary Zhou was too familiar with Dongzhou. The route they designed was to go to Erzhao via the elevated expressway. Secretary Zhou proposed to take the Beidi underpass.

Several underpasses leading to the city were basically cleared after the rain stopped, but the water in the Beidi underpass had not completely receded. From the series of arrangements made by Secretary Zhou after he got off the train, it can be seen that the former leader of Dongzhou had made sufficient preparations for this inspection.

Li Xiying told Secretary Zhou about the situation of the Beidi underpass with some embarrassment. Her honesty did not make Secretary Zhou change his plan. Secretary Zhou told everyone calmly that they came here to inspect the flood situation. The train was delayed for an hour, and passing through the Beidi underpass was just right to see the real situation of Dongzhou's waterlogging.

While making arrangements, Li Xiying secretly reported to Wang Jianming. Wang Jianming's reply was simple, respecting the wishes of the leaders of the Disaster Reduction Committee.

Xu Chunliang and Jiang Qiyong sat in a Coaster at the back. Their level could not enjoy the treatment of riding in the same car with Secretary Zhou. On the way to Erzhao, they frequently encountered traffic jams. Xu Chunliang thought that there was a problem with the design of today's route, and it would be more convenient to take the viaduct.

When there was a traffic jam, Qin Zhengyang called, and the first thing he said was: "Chunliang, is it convenient to talk?"

Xu Chunliang looked around and whispered: "It's convenient."

Qin Zhengyang said: "Just listen, no need to express your opinion. Secretary Zhou's visit this time is a bit unfortunate. This rain has exposed many problems in Dongzhou. You have a good relationship with Secretary Zhou and are relatively flexible. Think of a way to see if you can get some information from him, such as what is the purpose of his visit this time? Which unit does he want to inspect?"

Xu Chunliang laughed.

Qin Zhengyang said: "Don't laugh, kid, this matter is very important. We originally arranged for Secretary Zhou and his party to stay in the first move, but he temporarily requested to move in at the second move. The original route was to take the elevated expressway, but he specified a route through the Beidi Underground Road."

Xu Chunliang said: "My influence is limited."

Qin Zhengyang said: "I'm not asking you to influence him, I'm asking you to figure out his purpose." At this point he lowered his voice: "As a member of the Dongzhou system, you should have a sense of collective honor."

Xu Chunliang said: "I understand, I'll find a chance to help you find out, and report to you as soon as there is news."

Qin Zhengyang said: "Good brother."

Xu Chunliang hung up the phone and saw that the vehicles in front were still motionless. Many traffic police appeared at the scene and were directing traffic. They were also under great pressure. The leader's car was stuck here, and the current road conditions were not something they could clear in a short time.

Secretary Zhou decided not to wait any longer. It was less than one kilometer away from the Beidi underpass, and he planned to walk over to see the situation.

As soon as Secretary Zhou got out of the car, the others followed.

Secretary Zhou walked a few steps, stopped, turned around and looked back, found Xu Chunliang in the crowd, and waved to him: "Xiao Xu, come here."

Xu Chunliang was named by him in public, and helplessly became a conspicuous bag among the reception staff. He grinned and came to Secretary Zhou with a sunny face: "Secretary Zhou, you are looking for me?"

Secretary Zhou nodded: "You went to the Civil Affairs Bureau?"

Xu Chunliang thought that it was not arranged by you, and he was asking knowingly. On the surface, he still answered Secretary Zhou's questions very obediently.

Secretary Zhou and Xu Chunliang walked together, and Li Xiying accompanied them on the other side. While Secretary Zhou and Xu Chunliang were chatting, she sent a message to Wang Jianming again, reporting Secretary Zhou's every move.

The traffic police were dispatched, and the special police also followed. Although it was a peaceful time, necessary safety protection measures had to be taken.

Li Xiying looked at the chaotic traffic and the waterlogged road surface, and sighed in her heart. The more you fear something, the more it will come. Now Secretary Zhou will most likely criticize the problems he found.

When we arrived at the Beidi Underpass, the water inside had basically not receded, and there were still several cars trapped inside. During the rainy season, there would always be a few drivers who dared to take risks. Fortunately, there were no casualties.

Secretary Zhou rolled up half of his trouser legs and walked to the slow lane. The water here was relatively shallow, but the deepest part was not above the knee.

Xu Chunliang also followed Secretary Zhou's example and walked into the water. Secretary Zhou sighed: "These underpasses will definitely accumulate water during the rainy season. A person died here two years ago. It must be solved as soon as possible. Renovate the underpass and try to solve the problem fundamentally."

A group of people nodded, and Li Xiying took out a small notebook and recorded it carefully.

Judging from Secretary Zhou's current speech, he did not intend to take advantage of the issue to make criticisms, and publicly stated that the accumulation of water here is a historical problem.

Secretary Zhou said: "Xiao Li, you can go back and give feedback to Comrade Jianming. These problems are difficult for Dongzhou to solve. Our Disaster Reduction Committee can serve as a bridge to help you coordinate with the railway department."

Li Xiying seemed a little excited: "Great, thank you Secretary Zhou for your support for our work."

Secretary Zhou said: "I have worked in Dongzhou for so many years and have a special feeling for Dongzhou. I have long regarded this place as my second hometown. It is my honor to work for Dongzhou."

Xu Chunliang sighed secretly. Old Zhou's pattern is still good. If he criticizes the current chaos, Wang Jianming can only bear it. Who let the weather be bad, and it just happened to rain at this time.

Suddenly, I felt a chill on my head, but it was the rain that had just stopped not long ago.

Li Xiying quickly arranged for someone to hold an umbrella, and Secretary Zhou waved his hand to indicate that it was not necessary. Such an arrangement seemed to be for the consideration of the leaders, but in fact, it could not rule out the possibility of hidden routines. Many cadres in the system neglected such details.

Xu Chunliang took an umbrella and handed it to Secretary Zhou. The rain was fine and dense. If you walk in the wind and rain like this, your clothes will soon be soaked.

Secretary Zhou looked at Xu Chunliang with appreciation. Li Xiying asked him if they could go to Erzhao from another road since the road had been cleared.

Secretary Zhou said, "I want to take a look around here."

Secretary Zhou strode forward with an umbrella and entered the Jishuiba community with ease. Jishuiba is an old community nearby. The current situation is just as its name suggests. The whole community is seriously flooded.

Li Xiying didn't know that the situation here was so serious. There were many places in the community where the water was waist-deep. Most of the people living in this old community were middle-aged and elderly.

Xu Chunliang quietly sent a message to Qin Zhengyang and took a video.
