Rebirth in officialdom: crush enemies and reach the top

"I understand……"

Song Jian nodded.

Qi Xia turned his attention to Song Jian, "In this Standing Committee meeting, Chen Changming and I completely fell out with each other! You have been lurking around him for so long, have you collected any clues about him?"

"No……"

Song Jian shook his head, "You also know that Chen Changming cherishes his feathers too much! It's difficult to catch him if you take one step at a time and see the next three steps..."

Hearing Song Jian's words, Qi Xia's eyes flashed with disappointment and unwillingness.

"What a pity! I feel regretful just thinking about it! It would be great if I could ruin Chen Changming's chance of promotion this time... No matter what, submit the information to the center first, and block the promotion of that boy Chu Xian first!"

……

Office of the Provincial Party Committee Secretary.

Chen Changming put down the phone and waved to Su Chendong, who had just knocked on the door and came in. "Comrade Chendong, please sit down."

"Secretary, you are looking for me in such a hurry. Is there something urgent?"

"I just received a call from the relevant leaders of the Central Government, and Qi Xia submitted the complaint materials as expected, accusing us of violating the personnel system and illegally promoting cadres who did not meet the promotion conditions, which is suspected of cultivating personal power and forming cliques! And they also said that we act domineeringly, act arbitrarily, and have a monologue in Handong..."

"Is this Qi Xia crazy? He slapped us with so many labels regardless of the facts!"

Su Chendong's expression was also very shocked, "Secretary, will this affect you?"

"The big boss has already said that he will arrange an inspection in Handong as soon as possible! He asked us not to announce Chu Xian's promotion and appointment first. Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. He probably wants to evaluate Chu Xian personally. You have to remind Chu Xian, be prepared for this! This might be a big opportunity for Chu Xian..."

"I see……"

Su Chendong nodded and said, "I will remind Chu Xian..."

"In addition, Comrade Chendong, I don't have much time in Handong. There is someone I must introduce to you to prevent you from accidentally hurting your own comrades in the future..."

Chen Changming said with a smile.

"Secretary, who is he?"

Su Chendong was also aroused by Chen Changming's mysterious expression.

"I just called him to come over. You can see him later!"

As soon as Chen Changming finished speaking, there was a knock on the door outside the office.

"Come in……"

Song Jian, Secretary of the Xiangzhou Municipal Party Committee, pushed in the door and greeted Chen Changming and Su Chendong respectively, "Secretary, Governor..."

Su Chendong was suddenly startled and glanced at Chen Changming in surprise.

It seems to be asking, why did you call the people from the Qijia Gang here?

Realizing the confusion and surprise in Su Chendong's eyes, Chen Changming did not immediately answer the question.

He carefully observed the movement outside the office, and at the same time told his secretary that no one was allowed to disturb him during this period. Then he smiled and patted Song Jian on the shoulder and said to Su Chendong, "Comrade Chendong, Comrade Song Jian is nominally the He is a member of the Qijia Gang, but he is actually of the same mind as us! I asked him to infiltrate the Qijia Gang, just to collect evidence of the Qijia Gang's violations of laws and disciplines! Last time, a big surprise happened in Linzhou, Lu Hantian, Xue Wei and others have all received the punishment they deserve, but Qi Xia is still at large. This is not allowed... And the Zhou Lin case last time was also related to the Qi family! The reason why we are not attacking them now is because we don't have enough information. The evidence does not mean that they can escape the punishment of the law..."

Su Chendong suddenly realized, "Secretary, you did this very covertly, even I was kept in the dark..."

"Hahaha, after all, this matter is too confidential. I have to do this to keep it secret..."

Chen Changming's tone was slightly apologetic, "I'm going to be transferred now, so I can only leave this unfinished task to you to complete..."

As he said that, he waved his hand, "What are you two doing standing there? Sit down quickly!"

After Su Chendong and Song Jian sat down, Chen Changming sat on the sofa and focused his eyes on Song Jian.

"Comrade Song Jian, have you gained anything from the Qijia Gang during this time?"

"Secretary, a good phenomenon has happened recently..." Song Jian confessed respectfully, "Qi Xia used me as a 'hidden chess' before. In order to prevent me from being exposed, I was not allowed to attend the gatherings of the Qijia Gang. But this time he allowed me to attend the party for the first time... If this incident becomes normal, I will have the opportunity to collect more evidence of their violation of laws and disciplines!"

"But it's just a bit inconvenient. Last time I heard that Lu Hantian brought a voice recorder to a meeting, which made Qi Xia very nervous...Now the Qijia Gang is very cautious about gatherings. There are people searching at the entrance of the venue, and the voice recorder is not brought at all. No, so I'm thinking of other ways..."

Chen Changming frowned, "Does Qi Xia doubt you?"

"This probably won't happen."

Song Jian shook his head and analyzed with clear logic, "He gave me a favor, and I accepted it in person, and deliberately let him record the evidence of me accepting the favor, because this way he would have something to do with me, so he wouldn't worry about me not being able to do so. Be obedient! But what he didn’t expect was that I turned around and handed those gold bars to the Discipline Inspection Commission..."

"Besides, in order to win his trust, I often gave him advice on dealing with secretaries and provincial governors. He shouldn't doubt me..."

"That's good!"

Chen Changming nodded and said, "As for the recording pen, I will ask Comrade Jiang Wanhe. The Provincial Public Security Department will purchase the latest equipment, which should be able to help you! However, you must pay attention to confidentiality and safety..."

"Thank you secretary, I understand..."

Song Jian also nodded, and then changed the subject, "Secretary, Governor, this time I attended the Qijia Gang's gathering and learned a lot of important information..."

Song Jian then repeated the information he heard when he attended the Qijia Gang gathering in front of Chen Changming and Su Chendong.

"In addition to submitting materials to the central government and accusing Comrade Chen Dong and me, they also want to act like a monster when the senior leaders come to inspect?"

After hearing the news, Chen Changming was shocked and angry.

Su Chendong also felt a little helpless, "These people really intend to make a fuss about the public trial and sentencing! There is also the matter of Li Mengting's ex-husband absconding. If they hadn't known the news in advance this time, they might have been caught off guard!"

"Comrade Chendong, how do you think we should fight back on this matter?"

Chen Changming glanced at Su Chendong and said, now he will slowly hand over most of Handong's affairs to Su Chendong.

"Although there is something wrong with the public trial and sentencing meeting, it is not a serious matter..."

Su Chendong frowned, "The key is that Fang Long has been on the run for several years without being caught! One of the important parts of 'improving people's livelihood' that Shuanglu County has vigorously promoted before is to improve social security! But a suspect has not been able to do so for several years. If you catch him, he will be easily questioned and criticized by others... I will report this information to Chu Xian and the others first, and then discuss what to do!"
