Rebirth of the Rising Sun

Xia Xiang seemed to be complaining to Ruan Guiben, telling him that Feng Sizhe was a very powerful person now and that he had to do what he asked. He said it helplessly and also stated that he had decided to deal with the matter of Wang Xibo seriously, and he came to talk to Ruan Guiben in the hope that he could support him.

If the party secretary of a city has figured out something and made a decision, it is generally difficult to change it. Even if Ruan Guiben is the deputy party secretary in charge of personnel, he can't stop it. In this case, what can you ask Ruan Guiben to do?

If he confronted Xia Xiang head-on, not only would he not succeed, but the relationship between the two sides would become rigid, and even the first thing Xia Xiang mentioned just now, that is, to use Huabei District to carry out the next batch of agricultural transformation, would fail. In this case, Ruan Guiben would have done nothing.

After quickly assessing the situation in a limited amount of time, Ruan Guiben finally nodded, "I basically agree with the handling of Comrade Wang Xibo. It was inappropriate for him to let the primary school students perform for him in the rain yesterday, but considering that he has made contributions to the city's education, I wonder if we can keep him, for example, we can give him the position of deputy mayor, but let him continue to serve as director of the Education Bureau concurrently?"

Seeing that Ruan Guiben still wanted to protect Wang Xibo, Xia Xiang pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Comrade Guiben, yesterday's incident has proved that he is no longer suitable for education work. How can you keep him in the municipal education department? I think we should just do it this way. We don't say whether to remove him from the position of deputy mayor or not. Just let him go to the CPPCC directly. It just so happens that one of the deputy directors of the CPPCC office is ill and cannot do the job. I think we should let Comrade Wang Xibo do that job. After all, he is still young, and it is still suitable for him to do office work in the CPPCC."

The deputy director of the Municipal CPPCC Office is only a deputy division level. This is equivalent to changing Wang Xibo from deputy director to deputy division level, which is a two-level demotion. This is already a great punishment. Seeing this result, Ruan Guiben was really troubled, but he couldn't say anything, because Xia Xiang's tone was affirmative when he said this decision. In other words, he was ready to be refuted. Even if Ruan Guiben didn't agree now, the final result might be even worse. What does it mean to not be removed from the position of deputy mayor and go to the CPPCC? If he goes to the CPPCC, will he still be the deputy mayor?

Seeing that Xia Xiang had unconsciously brought the matter to this point and had done things at such a speed, Ruan Guiben, while praising the other party's cleverness in his heart, nodded his head and said, "Okay, I think Secretary Xia's decision is very good, and I support it."

"Haha, then it's settled. I'll ask the Municipal Organization Department to handle this matter later. You and I just need to sign it. At the same time, Comrade Guiben will have to work hard to notify Huabei City to prepare for agricultural transformation." Seeing that Ruan Guiben had seen the overall situation and did not object to this matter, Xia Xiang stood up happily and acted as if he was leaving.

"Okay." Ruan Guiben also stood up from the sofa and pretended to see Xia Xiang off. After watching Xia Xiang leave his office, he sighed and returned to his desk. Looking at the number of Wang Xibo's call, he sighed again and dialed the number.

Wang Xibo was walking anxiously in the office when suddenly the phone on his desk rang. He saw that the number was from Secretary Ruan's office, so he quickly picked up the phone, "Hello, Secretary Ruan, this is Xibo."

After the initial excitement, Wang Xibo, who was holding the phone, soon became quiet like a deflated ball. "Okay, Secretary Ruan, I'll listen to you and go to the CPPCC first, but you must remember me and pull me out of the CPPCC if you have the chance."

"Okay, then goodbye, Secretary Ruan." Wang Xibo finally hung up the phone in a sullen manner, and then slumped down on his office chair. He knew that no matter how much Ruan Guiben promised him, his political future was bleak. After going to the Municipal CPPCC this time, he was afraid that he would never have the opportunity to work in an institution like the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government again.

The people from the Organization Department announced their opinions on how to deal with Comrade Wang Xibo. This matter quickly spread throughout the Lianhua Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government Building, especially the Municipal Government Building. Many small clerks and cadres who like to be underground Organization Department heads were even more proud of their foresight. They had predicted in advance that Wang Xibo would be in trouble. Now seeing that he really was in trouble, it was as if everything was done according to their instructions, which gave people a sense of accomplishment.

Feng Sizhe was naturally very happy. When he learned that Wang Xibo was going to be transferred to the Municipal CPPCC, he happily called Secretary Xia Xiang. As soon as the call was connected, he said in a grateful voice, "Thank you, Secretary Xia."

"Hey, what is Sizhe doing? This is all as it should be. Wang Xibo himself is not suitable for educational work. His actions have proved everything. So it is in line with the organizational principles for me to do this to him. Haha, it's just that I decided to make Huabei District the unit for the second agricultural transformation without discussing it with you. I hope you don't have any ideas."

Xia Xiang said that he had privately decided to make Huabei District the unit for agricultural transformation, which was telling Feng Sizhe that he had paid a price for doing this. How could Feng Sizhe not know that many things in politics are about balance and exchange. After taking down Wang Xibo, he had to give Ruan Guiben some sweetness, otherwise he would take all the benefits, and then things would become contradictory and intensified.

Feng Sizhe had no problem with Xia Xiang's actions. After all, he was following official practice. It was impossible for him to take all the benefits. He was lucky to be able to take down Wang Xibo so smoothly. At least because of this incident, Feng Sizhe's prestige in Lianhua City soared. No one would bother him in the short term, and he could do his job better. So, on the phone, Feng Sizhe assured Xia Xiang that he would immediately carry out the second batch of agricultural transformation in the city. At the same time, he also made preparations to welcome the Great Northeast Agricultural Trade Company to Lianhua City.

The municipal party committee quickly discussed the next three agricultural transformation units, namely Huabei District, Tangxi County and Changfeng County after Xingren County.

These three areas are all in the northwest of Lianhua City. As a result, the northwest of Lianhua City has become the first place to become prosperous in Lianhua City.

After the three units became the second batch of agricultural transformation units, Feng Sizhe's work became busy again. He started by studying their topography and landforms, and went on to soil analysis and testing, to determine where was suitable for planting what, where was suitable for merging small fields into large fields, etc. Feng Sizhe personally participated in all of this and has been working hard.

More than half a month passed quickly, and finally people from the Great Northeast Agricultural Trade Corporation arrived in Lianhua City. Feng Sizhe then breathed a sigh of relief and returned to Lianhua City to meet the people from the Great Northeast Corporation.

To Feng Sizhe's surprise, the representatives of the Great Northeast Agricultural Trade Corporation who came to Lianhua City this time were Tong Qing and Tian Liang. The fact that the two heads of the corporation came to Lianhua City was enough to prove their importance to this market, and of course, it also proved their importance to Feng Sizhe.

When Feng Sizhe just changed into a clean set of clothes and appeared in the reception room of the city government, Tong Qing was the first to stand up from the leather sofa and walked to Feng Sizhe in two steps. "Mayor Feng, long time no see. You are tanned."

"Haha, there isn't much time. Didn't we meet at the Mulan Club in Kyoto in July? Haha." Feng Sizhe also stretched out his big hand and shook hands with Tong Qing. This time their meeting would be more formal because they represented two different units.

"Haha, I'm talking about my admiration for Mayor Feng. It's like a long time since we last met. Haha, come, let me introduce you. This is Tian Liang, one of the founders of the Greater Northeast Corporation and also my good friend." After Tong Qing finished talking about his attitude towards Feng Sizhe with a smile, he turned around and introduced Tian Liang to Feng Sizhe.

Tian Liang was a fair-skinned young man in his twenties, with a pair of big eyes that looked very energetic. When Tong Qing introduced him to Feng Sizhe, he hurriedly took two steps, came to the opposite side of Feng Sizhe and said, "Hello, Mayor Feng, I have heard of your name for a long time. It is really an honor to meet you today."

Is Tian Liang being polite when he says these words? Of course not. He has such an attitude because he has been influenced by Tong Qing.

Ever since he started cooperating with Tong Qing on the Great Northeast Agricultural Trading Company, he kept hearing him talk about how great Feng Sizhe was, how powerful Feng Sizhe was, how he could call the shots in official circles, how he could make strategic plans in the business world, and even how he had unparalleled insight into many major events, and so on.

It can be said that Tian Liang has admired Feng Sizhe for a long time. Later, he went to Kyoto several times and heard others mention Feng Sizhe. Although some people said something bad about Feng Sizhe, it is undeniable that when it comes to business, no one can say anything else. After all, Feng Sizhe has said and said everything in the business world without any failure, and all of them have come true, which makes Tian Liang admire him in his heart. This time, when he heard Tong Qing say that he wanted to come to Guangxi Province to see the agricultural market here, he was a little resistant. In his opinion, the best agriculture is still the three northeastern provinces. Whether it is land area or climate, the crops in the south are not as good as those in the northeast in one season a year. But when he heard Tong Qing say that this was Feng Sizhe's intention, he immediately changed his mind and dealt with the affairs of the northeast, and then he came as agreed. He was very happy to see Feng Sizhe personally receive him on the first day of his arrival.
