Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the current Liu family, the eldest is the director of the Planning Commission, one of the most valuable positions at the ministerial level.  The third child is the governor who is about to take over as the secretary of the provincial party committee. Even the fourth girl, although her position is only at the department level, her husband Wang Weihong, Liu Dong's fourth uncle, is Jing Jing.  The executive vice governor of Northern Province and member of the provincial party committee is also preparing to take over the position of governor of Jingbei Province.

    Having four direct descendants in a family and two ministerial ranks is already an exaggeration. Moreover, these two ministerial ranks are both highly valuable ministerial ranks, which makes it even more exaggerated.  If Liu Dongbei, the second oldest brother, takes up the position of minister of the Mechanical Engineering Department at this time, even if the Liu family is strong, they will not be able to stop those who have anger in their hearts.

    After all, although there seem to be many ministerial-level positions in the country, in such a large country with a population of one billion, there are only a few hundred such positions, and among these hundreds, many of them only enjoy ministerial-level positions.  treatment rather than real power.  There are only three sons in the Liu family, and it turns out that all three sons are at the ministerial level, and there is also a son-in-law who is also moving towards the ministerial level.

    No one is happy to see such a result, it is too arrogant.  Even people who don't have other thoughts can't help but suppress this momentum.  In such a big country, your old Liu family cannot be the only one to shine, right?  If you make it impossible for others to go, others will also make it impossible for you to go.

    It is precisely because of this reason that Mr. Liu, including Liu Dong, have not been very willing to let anyone in the family move up.  Originally, the Liu family was sure of the momentum of this storm. As long as they placed bets, there was no way they wouldn't win.

    But the problem is that the current Liu family has developed to a bottleneck stage. As long as this bottleneck is not broken, the greater the political capital the Liu family obtains, the easier it will be to make people jealous. If this political capital is used up by the Liu family in a short period of time  , then it is equivalent to poking a hornet's nest.

    Sometimes, the pain lies in that you clearly know that this thing can make money, but you just can¡¯t use it to make money.  It is really unpleasant to watch the interests that should belong to you being taken away by others. This situation is really unpleasant.

    And if you want to break this bottleneck, you must have both top and bottom.  To put it bluntly, it means compromise, advance and retreat.  Just like when the old man let his uncle Liu Changzheng take the position of director of the Planning Commission on the condition of completely retiring.

    And now if you want your second uncle, Liu Dongbei, to take another step forward, then someone from the Liu family must step up or leave.  It's very simple to get rid of someone, that is, one of the core members of the Liu family must be released from at least one ministerial-level position, so that it is possible for Liu Dongbei to ascend to the throne.

    But the problem is that such a thing is the least possible.  Because there are basically no people in the Liu family who are suitable for going all the way, especially at the ministerial level, unless the Liu family dares to sacrifice the interests of those who are not in the core group of the Liu family.  But the problem is that those non-core Liu family members may not be willing to give up such a position.

    After all, others followed the Liu family to keep their own positions. Now, in order to gain the upper hand, the direct descendants of the Liu family are asking them to sacrifice their own interests.  The consequences of such an uneven situation will be that the entire Liu family group will become alienated and will no longer be a close group.

    If something like that really happens, then the Liu family must have made a huge loss.  The core number of the Liu family is smaller than that of other families. Even at its current height, the Liu family itself appears to be a bit weak.  If it weren't for the fact that the Liu family has attracted enough people and is united enough in the past few years, it would be impossible for the Liu family to appear to be able to do anything at this level.

    ¡°If after something like this happens, those on the periphery or those who are not the core direct lineage will alienate the Liu family, then even if the Liu family wants to maintain their current position, it will not be that easy.  In order to obtain a ministerial-level position in the core of the direct line, it is impossible to destroy the group with the Liu family as the core that has been established with great difficulty. Except for idiots who would do this, generally no one with a slightly normal mind would do it.  Such a decision.

    Since there is no one to step down, if one of the core members of the Liu family steps up, then the chances of Liu Dongbei taking over will be greater.  Because the next step up from the ministerial level is the deputy state level.  Once you reach this level, you have basically reached the end of your career in domestic official circles.  Anyone who is young and strong in this position has a great chance of reaching the national level.

    Of course, some battles are inevitable, but the battle at that level is no longer a battle at the ministerial level or deputy ministerial level, but a battle of ideas.  It can be said that although the content of the battles from the lowest level in the political system to the ministerial level seems to be very different, in fact the core of them is similar.

    But from the perspective of the deputy state level, the core of their struggle is fundamentally different from that of the ministerial level.It can be said that it is more pragmatic.  Don't say that being pragmatic is nonsense, being pragmatic is not doing your job properly.  In fact, when managing a country, pragmatism is a very important criterion. It represents the advanced nature of a country's thinking.

    Whether it is capitalism, socialism, or the former feudal society or slave society.  The most important condition for changing the structure of these societies lies in thought.  The importance of thought lies in guidance.  Just like the Confucianism that China has inherited from ancient times to the present, or other Western ideas.

    These things are the fundamental core of the country¡¯s change and development.  Therefore, if someone in the core of the Liu family's direct line reaches the deputy state level, their fighting level will be different from that of the ministerial level, and they will have little connection with the relationships below.  After this happened, Liu Dongbei's hope of taking another step forward was fully opened.

    Others may be jealous because of the three ministerial-level bosses in the Liu family's core lineage, but they will never be jealous because of the deputy state-level and two ministerial-level bosses in the Liu family's direct lineage. It is certain to be jealous, but to  It's basically impossible to do anything.

    So what the Liu family needs now is a way to break the bottleneck.  Only in this way can the Liu family walk more steadily.  After all, if the Liu family does not have a senior or deputy national leader to support them for a long time, then even a large family will sometimes have to make a lot of compromises because they do not have the right to speak at the highest level.

    The position of ministerial level seems to be relatively high, but in fact it is still far away from the real core of power. It seems to be just one step away, but this one step away can trap most domestic families.  Reaching this position is basically a turning point, or a step forward to become a truly top domestic powerhouse.

    Or it was a moment of glory. After all the ministerial-level bosses in the family retired, the sphere of influence shrank sharply. Although it was still very powerful, it became very far away from the top.

    There are definitely many such families in the country.  Compared to them, the Liu family is like a rising star.  The families with great foundations that the old man of the Liu family often talked about in the past were actually referring to this type of family.  Whether it is the military or the local area, there are too many families like this.  Families that have made so many contributions to the founding of the country are still like evergreen trees. After all, they are only a minority. More families have become the kind of force that seems to have little say, but in fact has a very strong foundation.

    For those upstarts or nouveau riche political families, such well-established families are the most difficult to cause trouble, because the upstarts do not have enough heritage. Although they seem to be in high positions now, they have only been in a relatively short period of time. The details of those well-established families are hidden.  They didn't quite understand it, and only after stepping on a landmine did they realize it was a big trouble.

    The chance of something like this happening in Sijiu City is not small.  If the Liu family hadn't always been in the ministry, and the main forces were on the side of Sijiu City, maybe the Liu family would have suffered such a loss.

    Taking a step forward or taking a step back, this choice does not seem to be too urgent for the current Liu family, but in fact, if the Liu family does not complete the transformation as soon as possible, then the Liu family will basically become the kind of family with great foundation in the future.  It's a sure thing.  Moreover, these foundations will gradually become weaker as time goes by, until the Liu family's political influence is completely withdrawn.

    Of course, such an idea can only be found in Liu Dong¡¯s mind.  At this time, neither Liu Dong's father, nor his eldest and second uncle, nor even the old man had such a sense of crisis.

    It can¡¯t be said that they are short-sighted. It is actually because of the recent big changes in the country. It is only now. Some people say that the old leader will tour the south in three years. Isn¡¯t it also a good opportunity?  In fact, that stuff is nonsense.

    For ordinary small households, predicting the old leader¡¯s southern tour like that is definitely a huge political capital.  But for the current Liu family, such political capital is really of little value.

    Because by the time the old leader goes on a southern tour three years later, it will basically be equivalent to the cake being divided up and the final result being finalized.  Although there are still some small cakes left out, such cakes are definitely not enough for a big family like the Liu family.

    The Liu family wants to gain a huge amount of political capital in a short period of time, so they can only place their bets now.  After waiting for three years, the day lilies are all cold.  At that time, the Liu family did not have the power to open the market even if they wanted to place bets.

    Liu Dong had already started to consider the issue between advance and retreat when he came to the old man¡¯s courtyard today.  When the core members of the family discuss it later, Liu Dong plans to raise this issue to see what the old man and the others will choose. They will take a step back temporarily and let the uncleWhether dad slowly gets through his seniority, or he goes a step further and takes risks to gain political capital.
