Rebirth of the Rising Sun

"Yes, Governor." Yuan Weimin sat on the chair specially used to receive officials, then opened the folder he brought and began to report.

Ever since Wang Hailiang was investigated, the atmosphere in the Provincial Public Security Department has become much more positive, because everyone knows that the new governor attaches great importance to public security work, and may take action against the leaders if he is dissatisfied. So whether it is Acting Director Xiao Bin, Executive Deputy Director Chao Long and other deputy directors such as An Guang, they all put their energy into their work and try not to make any mistakes to avoid trouble.

It was in such an environment that Yuan Weimin began to investigate and supervise some of the work of the provincial department. In such an atmosphere, at least the public security in the capital of Ducheng Province seemed to have improved a lot, and Yuan Weimin came this time to report some loopholes in public security.

"Governor, after the Wang Hailiang incident, the atmosphere in the provincial department has become much more positive, and most cadres know how to work hard and fulfill their duties. However, the public security foundation in Ducheng Province is not good, and the establishment of the provincial engineering inspection team has resulted in a large number of construction workers losing their jobs. So there are still great hidden dangers in social security work." Yuan Weimin reported his work as briefly as possible, because he also knew that as the governor, Feng Sizhe's work was very busy.

"Well, I know about this situation." Feng Sizhe nodded. Not only did he know that there were hidden dangers in the provincial security situation, he even knew that the current good security was just a temporary surface phenomenon. Perhaps when the right time comes, all this will erupt, and it is very likely that the spearhead will be directed at himself, and that would be the beginning of real chaos.

Seeing Feng Sizhe's familiar look, Yuan Weimin nodded. He came here to give a reminder. As the vice governor in charge of the Provincial Public Security Department, he was of course very familiar with the public security situation. He was afraid that Governor Feng would be confused by all the false impressions now, but now it seems that the other party still has an idea in mind.

In the next half hour, Yuan Weimin reported some specific situations of the Public Security Department, including some of his ideas.

Feng Sizhe affirmed Yuan Weimin's work achievements. He then gave instructions that if we want to manage the public security work of the whole province well, we must first start from the source. Where is this source? To put it bluntly, it is the ability of some leaders of the provincial department. Can they really be fair and treat their work fairly? If these people are not clean, then the upper and lower levels will follow suit. It is conceivable that how can the public security in the province be good? Of course, it is not a small matter to touch any of the leaders of the provincial department. It must be approved by the Provincial Standing Committee. Therefore, Feng Sizhe asked Yuan Weimin to investigate as much as possible. If any leader of the provincial department is found to have a problem, he should not rush to deal with it, but first obtain evidence. Everything should be based on the law. As long as there is sufficient evidence, Feng Sizhe can do what he wants, and it will not be of much use for anyone to intervene.

Half an hour later, Yuan Weimin stood up and prepared to leave, which was in line with his usual working principles.

Feng Sizhe did not stand up to see him off, but continued to read a document on the table. And this time Yuan Weimin did not leave immediately, but stood there and hesitated for a while.

"What's the matter, Old Yuan? Is there something wrong?" Feng Sizhe asked Yuan Weimin.

"Governor, I think... you should get started on the provincial economic work as soon as possible. The Provincial People's Congress will be held after the New Year, and it will be very important for you at that time." After hesitating for a moment, Yuan Weimin made up his mind and said this.

Hearing that Yuan Weimin was actually worried about him, Feng Sizhe laughed, "Well, I know what you said."

Yuan Weimin was worried that Feng Sizhe's economic achievements were too low, and that someone would inevitably talk about this matter at the provincial people's congress. At that time, he would use the title of "agent" on his head to make things worse, which would have a certain impact on his chances of becoming the governor with a high vote.

After Yuan Weimin said this, he felt relieved and left the governor's office.

Feng Sizhe smiled as he watched Yuan Weimin leave. Yuan Weimin was so reserved even when it came to his relationship with others. But he thought that what he was reminded of was right. Under the premise that the whole country was focusing on economic construction, he, the acting governor, should also do something. With this in mind, he dialed the phone on the table and said, "Feng Lei, please ask Vice Governor Zheng to come over."

Since Feng Sizhe returned to the provincial government, Zheng Defu has returned to his original life. Although he is a member of the Standing Committee and a vice governor, he does not actually have much power in the provincial government. He is under pressure from Master Feng above him, and from below he is restrained by Zou Anlin and Xie Kaiquan. All he can manage is the work at hand.

But in the Capital Province, because the local forces are too strong, the local businessmen are also very powerful. Many foreign businessmen simply cannot tolerate some of the local regulations. Therefore, the commerce and industry in the Capital Province are not developed. Naturally, the power of him as the executive vice governor has become much smaller.

The phone on the desk rang, "Hello, how are you?" Although he did not have much power, Zheng Defu still had a strong aura.

"Oh, it's Secretary Yin. OK, OK, I'll be there right away." Although he was full of confidence, when he heard that the call was from Yin Fenglei, his confidence immediately disappeared.

A deputy governor, or even a standing governor, shouldn't respect a secretary so much, but in the capital province, Zheng Defu really didn't have much choice. In many cases, the secretary Yin Fenglei's words were more effective than his own. The answer was, of course, that he represented the governor.

The governor's office was not far from the office. Zheng Defu walked over and Yin Fenglei did not dare to delay and immediately reported to Feng Sizhe.

In the governor's office, Feng Sizhe and Zheng Defu sat down in the reception area. It must be said that this treatment made Vice Governor Zheng very satisfied.

Zheng Defu liked the feeling of being respected, especially when someone as powerful as Feng Sizhe could still respect him so much, which made him feel satisfied from the bottom of his heart.

"Old Zheng, it's been a while since you came to Capital Province. How do you feel about it?" Feng Sizhe held the tea that Yin Fenglei had just brewed and spoke casually.

When it comes to feelings, Zheng Defu has many feelings. If he really talks about them, he may not be able to finish talking about them in a day and a night. But at this moment, he will not be too long-winded. He does not believe that Feng Sizhe is just chatting with him casually. As a governor, he has many things to do. Would he be bored enough to chat with him?

After just a moment's thought, Zheng Defu said, "Governor, the situation in Capital Province is very complicated."

"Yeah." Feng Sizhe nodded. "Yes, we are the governor, and we are mainly responsible for the economic work of the entire province. What do you think about this?" Obviously, Young Master Feng did not want Zheng Defu to go off topic, so he pointed out that the topic of today's conversation was economic work.

Zheng Defu also nodded. He understood what Feng Sizhe meant. "Governor, when it comes to economic work, I need to review it. The development of industry and commerce in the province has been too slow during this period."

Zheng Defu is in charge of most of the work related to industry, commerce and enterprises. The department in charge of the executive vice governor is still very important, but due to the special reasons of the capital province, his work scope and power are actually not very large. Although there are some famous industries and enterprises in the province, most of these people are sent from the capital province to control them. How many people will listen to him?

"Old Zheng, we are just chatting. I don't think it's necessary to review. Let's just talk about the current situation." What Feng Sizhe hates most is the people below him reviewing right away. In his opinion, since you know there is a problem at work, what you should do is to find a way to solve it instead of always admitting mistakes. If you know there is a problem but you don't correct it, does that mean that there is something wrong with your work attitude?

"Yes, then let me talk about it." Zheng Defu sensed a hint of displeasure from Feng Sizhe, so he immediately changed his tone and began to report on the economic situation of industry, commerce and enterprises in the capital province in recent times, or to put it bluntly, in the fourth quarter of 2007.

Feng Sizhe already knew all these situations and relevant data. He just came to listen to Zheng Defu's explanation symbolically. After listening to all this, he sighed and said, "Alas, the situation is really not optimistic. Old Zheng, we still have a heavy task to do."

"Yes, Governor, I have tried my best to contact some old friends. Some of them supported me when I was working in Kyoto. I want to try to bring those people to our city province. After all, can we only rely on the current companies and businessmen? It seems that it is not possible to quickly increase the speed of economic development." Zheng Defu talked about some of his measures, but obviously the idea was good, but the effect was not very good. After all, he is not in Kyoto now. As the saying goes, people leave and the tea gets cold. How many people can really give him face?

Feng Sizhe could see that what Zheng Defu said was from the heart. Yes, as the executive vice governor of a province and the second-in-command of the provincial government, he really wanted to make some achievements to prove himself. The political environment in Ducheng Province was still like this, and he had a very capable person like Feng Sizhe above him. If he didn't feel the pressure, then this man would have been unworthy of being the vice governor of a province.

"Well, your ideas and practices are correct. The main reason why the economy of Ducheng Province is developing slowly is that the mainstream of economic development are local businessmen. Although they love their hometown and will make some contributions, the world is changing too fast now. If they only focus on one place, their ideas will not be exchanged more and information will not be circulated. Their development is destined to be slow. Therefore, we must find a way to stimulate them, which can also stimulate the economic development pattern of Ducheng Province. Introducing excellent foreign companies, businesses and even heavy industries to our Ducheng Province is undoubtedly the best way." Feng Sizhe said affirmatively.
