Rebirth of the Rising Sun

Gao Fengli thought that some things were better discussed at the dinner table. It was also a gesture of goodwill on his part. In fact, he was being a little condescending. He believed that if Feng Sizhe was sensible, he would definitely take up the topic.

Feng Sizhe didn't expect Gao Fengli to be so humble. In fact, it was like Gao Fengli admitting to him that Daquandao was wrong. This was rare. But Feng Sizhe thought that he had already worshipped Guan Changxiao's dock, and his relationship with the Miao faction was very good. There would be more help from the Miao faction in the future, so his position should stand on the side of the Miao faction. Not to mention that when he came to Zhuangcheng, Mr. Miao said that Zhongzhou Province was now ruled by the Miao faction. Let Feng Sizhe come here to strengthen the political environment here. It can't be said that the Miao faction is the only one in power, but at least this should be a place where the Miao faction's political philosophy can be promoted. This is also the purpose of Feng Sizhe's visit to Guan Changxiao to get his full support.

Feng Sizhe knew very well that although he had such a relationship with Miao Zihan and even the existence of Xiao Guofeng, being close to the powerful zz was obviously nothing, not to mention that he was the son-in-law of the Miao family who could not be seen in the light. So he had to be clear about what he did. That is, he could do things that were beneficial to the Miao family, and the Miao family would also support things that were beneficial to him. But if he deliberately made friends with other people and the Miao family knew about it, it would not be a good thing. If he was not careful, it would arouse the suspicion of the Miao family and even bring bad influence to him.

The higher the position, the more measured one must be in doing things. It was better when he was at the department level or even the bureau level. He just did things and didn't need to consider too many complicated issues. But now that he is at the deputy minister level, it involves the issue of standing in line. At this time, his every move will be noticed by others, and every thing he does may be studied by others, so he must be careful. Moreover, Feng Sizhe is not a strong backer now. If he can guarantee that he stands on the side of the Miao faction, maybe others will do their best to help him. But since he plans to form his own faction, the Feng faction, he must be more careful in doing things, because the Miao faction may help you with small things, but when it comes to big things, especially when it comes to standing issues, I'm sorry, they won't help you with all their strength.

Feng Sizhe felt that he had a heavy burden on his shoulders. Although the Zhao family had become much stronger under his management than in the previous life, think about it, the Wen family and the Lu family were also powerful. It was better now that his grandfather was still alive. Even if he had retired, he was still a member of the Central Advisory Commission. But if his health was not good, once he passed away, the Zhao family would inevitably be hit. For this reason, he had to do something. In this way, it would be very necessary to establish a strong force that could protect the Feng family.

Feng Sizhe's mind was working very fast for a while, and he thought about many problems in a short while. The result he came to was that he could not attend this dinner, so he said to Gao Fengli in an embarrassed tone, "Governor Gao, I'm really sorry. I have been very busy these two days. You also know that I have just been in Zhuangcheng for a short time and have a lot of things to do, so I appreciate your kindness."

Gao Fengli was a little unhappy when he heard that Feng Sizhe actually refused his invitation to dinner. Normally, when a leader invites his subordinates to dinner, everyone would rush over, not to mention that he was a powerful deputy provincial-level cadre, a member of the provincial party committee, and the executive vice governor. For this reason, he was a little unhappy about what he said next, "Why? Is Mayor Feng so busy at work?"

Hearing Gao Fengli's displeasure, Feng Sizhe had to soften his words and said, "Please forgive me, Governor Gao. Oh, by the way, there is something I need to report to Governor Gao. I received many letters today reflecting problems with the Zhuangcheng Investment Promotion Bureau. We have already convened a municipal government office meeting and sent an inspection team to investigate. If there is really a problem, I am considering replacing Comrade Wang Zhenhuai. I also took a look and found that the director of the Municipal Forestry Bureau is old, so I think he can retire early. Of course, if Governor Gao has any good suggestions, please let me know. I will seriously consider it."

Feng Sizhe has always believed in "if you show me respect, I will show you respect", even with his political enemies. As long as they are not fighting, he does not want to make enemies. Since the other party has shown goodwill, he should also show some appreciation.

Gao Fengli was somewhat happy to hear that Feng Sizhe did not attend his dinner, but did report the matter on the phone, and made his meaning very clear. He just did not agree with what Feng Sizhe said. It was obvious that Feng Sizhe was determined to take down Wang Zhenhuai, and had already given him an equivalent position, that is, the position of director of the Forestry Bureau of Zhuangcheng City, which was also at the deputy department level, but with different powers. He even said that if Gao Fengli had other ideas, he could transfer Wang Zhenhuai to other units. In short, Feng Sizhe was determined to take down Wang Zhenhuai and transfer this person away, so that out of sight, out of mind.

It can be said that Feng Sizhe did have an attitude, but Gao Fengli just couldn't take it up. Think about it, everyone knew that Wang Zhenhuai was his man, and as the new acting mayor, Feng Sizhe would start a conflict with this person first. This meant that the two had a conflict. It was believed that the news about this matter would soon spread to all departments in Zhuangcheng City, and no one knew how many people were watching it in Zhongzhou Province. If he took the initiative to back down at this time, people would inevitably say that he, the deputy governor, was afraid of the acting mayor. If this was the case, where would he put his face?

"Mayor Feng, I know Comrade Wang Zhenhuai well. He is indeed a comrade who is very knowledgeable about the economy. I think it is very appropriate to put him in the position of Zhuangcheng Investment Promotion Bureau. How about this, if you have any ideas about other units, I can support you. At the same time, I have a very good relationship with Comrade Wang Guoguang, and he will also support you when the time comes. What do you think?"

Obviously, Gao Fengli was stating his conditions, which was that as long as Feng Sizhe did not touch Wang Zhenhuai, everything else would be easy to deal with. Even if you wanted to target other departments, he would support it. And he would not be the only one who supported it, he would also get Wang Guoguang to support it together.

The conditions proposed by Gao Fengli were already good, but Feng Sizhe could not make any concessions on this matter. The reason was simple. Now the work had been arranged and the meeting had been held. Everyone knew that his first move would be to target the Municipal Investment Promotion Bureau. If he backed down at this time, people would inevitably feel that the acting mayor was incompetent. Such a blow would have far-reaching implications, and Feng Sizhe could not accept it.

"Governor Gao, I still have the same opinion. If you have thought it through, please give me a call. I still have work to do here, so let's leave it at that for now." When Feng Sizhe heard that Gao Fengli did not accept his opinion, he felt that there was no point in talking, so he hung up the phone.

Gao Fengli didn't expect Feng Sizhe to be so stubborn and even hang up his phone. He was very annoyed when he heard the beeping sound coming from the receiver. He had already lowered his head by making this call, which was equivalent to lowering his status to talk to Feng Sizhe. However, he didn't expect Feng Sizhe to be so unpresentable. He actually refused his kindness of inviting him to dinner and refused his words of intercession for Wang Zhenhuai. He couldn't help but get really angry, "Okay, Feng Sizhe thinks you are so powerful, right? Then we will see each other in person. I don't believe that you can pass the Standing Committee of the Zhuangcheng Municipal Committee to take down Wang Zhenhuai. Even if you pass, you can't pass the Standing Committee of the Provincial Committee."

But Gao Fengli didn't think about it at this time. He didn't let Feng Sizhe take down Wang Zhenhuai, which was actually setting obstacles for Feng Sizhe's work. He wanted face, but Feng Sizhe didn't want it? This was the first fire he started after taking office. If he couldn't do it well, it was conceivable how serious a blow this would be to his prestige.

. . . . . . . . . . . .

In the office of the director of the Zhuangcheng Investment Promotion Bureau, Wang Zhenhuai was nervously reporting to Gao Fengli on the phone, "Old leader, people from the Municipal Government Inspection Office have come to our Investment Promotion Bureau, including people from the Municipal Audit Department. What do you think we should do next?"

As a veteran director of the China Merchants Bureau, Wang Zhenhuai is very clear about how big his problem is. Over the years, he has worked his way up from an office clerk in the China Merchants Bureau, first as deputy director of the office, then director, then an ordinary deputy director of the China Merchants Bureau, then executive deputy director, and finally as director himself. Over the years, he has always regarded the China Merchants Bureau as his home, and has replaced so many leaders of the municipal party committee and government, but no one has wanted to do anything to the China Merchants Bureau. This has made him gradually bolder, and the amount of money he has embezzled is naturally not small. Today, when he saw Wang Yawen bringing so many people to the China Merchants Bureau, he knew that this time the problem was big and they were serious. He also knew about the Daquandao incident, so he guessed that Feng Sizhe was unhappy and wanted to use him as a pawn, so he hurriedly called his old leader and asked for help.

On the other end of the phone, Gao Fengli had just hung up on Feng Sizhe and was furious. Now, listening to Wang Zhenhuai's request for help, he was even more furious. "Wang Zhenhuai, are you such a loser? I'm telling you, hold on. Feng Sizhe alone can't turn the tables. As long as you don't do anything too outrageous, no one will do anything to you. You have to know that above him there is your Zhuangcheng Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee, as well as the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government. His words alone cannot count."
