Today is the day of the National People's Congress. The National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference was held the day before yesterday. CCTV broadcast live, and basically every local station's news channel broadcast, and major news newspapers and magazines did not spare any effort to report in a large number of articles. Even the topics that some peddlers and pawns talked about were about the content of the Two Sessions.

At this time, Li Bin and Xiao Yu were already sitting in their own living room in Beijing, while Xiao Yao and others returned to Tianjin directly. Li Bin arranged for Xiao Yao to organize a preparation team for the Hong Kong store and to rush to Hong Kong as soon as possible for overall planning.

At this time, Li Bin was staring at the live broadcast of the Two Sessions on TV, which was his most concerned issue at the moment.

As a special guest, Shi Shiming was also invited to attend the National People's Congress and sat in the back row of the rostrum.

The People's Congress arranged a total of eight and a half days, which was half a day less than the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. Li Bin had already known about the agenda of the meeting. At this time, the government work report of Premier Hua Wande of the State Council was broadcasting live on TV. Although Hua Wande's voice was old, it was still vigorous and powerful, and was occasionally interrupted by thunderous applause from the audience.

2008 is the year of national harvest and the year of constant disasters.

Hua Wande asked the representatives of the plenary meeting to stand up and observe three minutes of silence for the 69,142 people who were killed in the Wenchuan earthquake.

The meeting scene was silent, and all the delegates stood solemnly, their heads hang down, and occasionally low sobs came from the venue.

Li Bin also silently pulled Xiaoyu and lowered his head.

During the Wenchuan earthquake, Li Bin was still in the army. His team had just returned to China after a mission in Uzbekistan and was undergoing rest and rest training in Tibet. He was just listening to the news of the earthquake on the radio station, but the news was very vague. He would not mention matters that had nothing to do with the mission at the top secret radio station. At that time, the members of Li Bin's team did not care much. The earthquake occurred several times every year, and people were already numb. But he didn't expect that after returning to the camp after the training, he realized that the earthquake was so tragic. The country sent a large number of troops and pre-orders.

The reserves rushed to the disaster area for rescue and save lives. There were a lot of reports on the situation in the disaster area every day. The comrades just sat silently in front of the TV, watching the soldiers of the brothers sweating profusely to rescue the disaster, but they were powerless. They could only comfort the Sichuan comrades who were crying silently beside them, but their language was so pale and powerless. No one asked Lao Li for a fight, because they knew that even if the troops from all over the country rushed to the disaster area, it was not their turn to the army. The only thing they could do was to silently bless the people in the disaster area to survive this level as soon as possible and rebuild their homes as soon as possible.

After Kang Chang's solemn silence, Hua Wande asked everyone to sit down and reported some statistics on the snow disaster, which made people's mood even heavier.

2008, a turbulent autumn.

Immediately, Hua Wande enthusiastically commended the troops commanders and fighters who were brave enough to sacrifice their lives during the earthquake and relevant departments and masses of local governments, on behalf of the State Council. His report was once interrupted by warm applause.

Hua Wande was very excited. He knew that this was the last time he had stood on the solemn rostrum of the Great Hall of the People to give a report.

The summary of the 2008 Olympic Games that Huawande immediately reported was once again interrupted by people's applause.

Huawande's government work report lasted for two hours. Groups of numbers and comparisons all show that although in the year of disaster, the GDP level of the whole people continued to rise steadily, the completion of various indicators was basically satisfactory, and the growth rate of some industries far exceeded the expected level, achieving gratifying results.

Huawande's government work report ended with applause from the representatives, and everyone was satisfied with the fact that they still achieved such achievements in the year of disaster.

Li Bin was most concerned about the elections held on the fourth day of the meeting and the proposals of delegations held after the fourth day.

The father-in-law and father-in-law were the Premier of the State Council to replace Hua Wande, who was about to retire. There is nothing to worry about in this matter. The major factions have made concessions and reached a consensus on this matter. Although Xu Hezhan's position as vice chairman of the Military Commission has reached a basic consensus with the major factions, he dare not say that he is sure to win. Shi Guoli, the commander of the Guangzhou Military Region supported by the Guangdong faction, is also competitive.

The waiting time is long.

The meetings in the first three days were basically listening to the work reports of the Standing Committee of the People's Congress and the two houses in the morning, voting for the report on the National Economic and Social Development Plan and the draft central and local budgets for the next year, and discussing the content of the morning report in the afternoon.

Finally, the fourth day's meeting was held.

There is naturally no controversy in the election of President of the State, Vice President, and Premier of the State Council, and it passed unanimously. Li Bin finally saw his father-in-law standing on the rostrum and delivered his inaugural speech.

I could not see any excited expressions of Zhao Wenge, and I did a very plain job speech, without any bold words, nor had any lofty goals, just like his people, down-to-earth and ordinary. But people who are familiar with Zhao Wenge know that Zhao Wenge's work has always been done, not spoken. After being an organization cadre for so many years, I can't rub any sand in my eyes.

Amid the applause, Zhao Wenge finished his brief inauguration speech. Xiaoyu snuggled beside Li Bin and laughed at her:

"Xiao Jun, why do you think your father is like a piece of wood? There is not even a smile on his face. He finished speaking in just a few words. Look at the Prime Minister, after talking for a few hours, he looks like an official. Look at our father again, tsk tsk."

Li Bin glared at Xiaoyu and said:

"Don't talk nonsense. Our dad is now the leader of the party and the country. How can you let you slander it like this?"

Xiaoyu said dissatisfiedly:

"What's wrong with the leaders of the Party and the country? Isn't it still our father when I get home?"

Li Bin was so badly given by Xiaoyu, but Xiaoyu was not wrong.

Xiaoyu sighed and said:

"But this time our dad is going to move into Zhongnanhai to live. It's too inconvenient to get in. So, if you want to see them again, let them come out."

Li Bin laughed and rubbed Xiaoyu's head and said:

"Little girl, do you know how many people the leaders of the Party and the country will alarm when they go out? You just mess around."

The next procedure is to elect the candidates for Vice Premier of the State Council, State Councilor, Minister of various ministries, Directors of various committees, Governor, Auditor General, and Secretary-General of the People's Bank of China. There is basically no surprise, just as everyone predicted at the beginning, there is no big difference. The only surprise is that the Minister of Construction Le Yi successfully ran for Vice Premier of the State Council, and his uncle Wang Yonggui Shunjie became the Minister of the Ministry of Construction, which was also a surprise.

The election of the chairman of the Central Military Commission of the People's Republic of China was passed without any suspense, and naturally it was continued by the re-elected State No. 1, while the election of the vice chairman of the Military Commission caused some trouble.

The current vice chairman of the Military Commission, Lin Yiping, has taken the initiative to retire. Another vice chairman, Jiang Huiyuan, is a few years younger than him, and can still run for one term. Including General Cui Shengyan, Chief of Staff of the General Staff, General Xu Hezhan, Director of the General Political Department, General Shi Guoli, Commander of the Guangzhou Military Region, and General Fang Shuming, Executive Vice Chief of General Staff of the General Staff, have five people running for the position of two vice chairman of the Military Commission. The result of the election was surprising. Xu Hezhan was elected as Vice Chairman of the Military Commission with a high vote, and General Fang Shuming, Executive Vice Chief of General Staff of the General Staff, became another Vice Chairman of the Military Commission with a slight advantage. However, former Vice Chairman of the Military Commission, Jiang Huiyuan, was actually defeated.

The faction traces on Fang Shuming were unclear, and many people couldn't guess what was going on. I'm afraid even Fang Shuming himself didn't understand what was going on, so why did he get elected in a daze? I'm afraid there are not many people who really understand the reason, but Lin Yiping is the one who knows the most. He is the one behind the scenes.

Lin Yiping made two preparations for the candidate for vice chairman of the Military Commission, and it was certain that Xu Hezhan should be sure of it. Using Jiang Huiyuan or Fang Shuming to squeeze Cui Shengyan and Shi Guoli down was his second plan. The purpose of choosing Fang Shuming was that Fang Shuming did not belong to any faction and was easily accepted by people. More importantly, like Xu Hezhan, he was about to reach the line and could only finish this term, and he would definitely come down. By then, his second-tier leader Lin Aidang should also be the chief of staff and the rank of general, and he was qualified to participate in the competition for vice chairman of the Military Commission. Fang Shuming's rise to power and Jiang Huiyuan's continued position will be extremely beneficial for Lin Yiping, but he must not allow Cui Shengyan or Shi Guoli to obtain this crucial position.

The result of the election was that Lin Yiping won the complete victory.
Chapter completed!
