Rebirth of the Rising Sun

"Well, I do have a candidate, but I don't know if Secretary Xu would like him." If Zheng Qinghe couldn't see, he would know that this was an olive branch thrown to him by the secretary. This was exactly what he wanted at the moment, so he didn't hesitate at all and accepted it directly.

"Well, I still believe in Comrade Qinghe's vision. Let's do this. You can ask the Organization Department to go through the assessment procedures, and then you can send the documents to me for signature. It's settled." Xu Chaoqi seemed very calm. In fact, it did indicate that Zheng Qinghe had full authority over this matter and he would not interfere.

In order to get the full support of a provincial party committee secretary, Xu Chaoqi had to place some heavy bait at this time.

After showing his goodwill, Xu Chaoqi slowly said, "Comrade Qinghe, have you heard about what happened at the Traffic Police Corps?"

Finally, after doing a favor, Xu Chaoqi began to ask for a return. To be honest, this was also his helplessness. So far, in the provincial standing committee, he, as the secretary, could not guarantee that any vote would fully support him. This situation made him very embarrassed. He had no choice but to stabilize one by one. Although it was a bit ugly, as long as he achieved his goal, who would care about the process?

Zheng Qinghe had just received a big gift and was about to give back to Xu Chaoqi. When he heard about this topic, he immediately expressed his opinion without hesitation, "Secretary Xu, I have heard about this matter. Comrade Xiao Xiaojun certainly has a certain responsibility in this matter, but the Dongfangzhu cannot be completely without any problems, so it is difficult to say about this matter. Of course, Secretary Xu is far-sighted, and I think he must have a unique opinion."

As the secretary general of the provincial party committee, how could he not have heard of such a big thing? However, without knowing what Xu Chaoqi meant, he couldn't make a blind statement. He just pointed out the mistakes of both parties and did not help either side, so that he would have room for replay when making a decision later. In short, he had to see what Secretary Xu thought before deciding what to say.

Xu Chaoqi was very satisfied with Zheng Qinghe's answer. This was what he should do. "Well, I've learned about this matter. As you said, both of them have problems, so I think we should give them both fifty lashes. We should do what we should do with Xiao Xiaojun. It wouldn't be too much to demote or dismiss him. It's just that this matter implicates other comrades, which is not good. Comrade Qinghe, don't you think so?"

"Hmm? Yes, yes, Secretary Xu is absolutely right. I think this matter is best handled by Comrade Xiao Xiaojun. There is no point in investigating further." Zheng Qinghe understood Xu Chaoqi's meaning instantly. This meant that people wanted to protect Xiao Bin. In this case, of course he would stand on this side and speak.

Listening to Zheng Qinghe's answer, Xu Chaoqi nodded with satisfaction. Very good, it's done. In this matter, at least he got one vote of support.

Zheng Qinghe left the secretary's office with satisfaction. Then he called the secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, Pang Yijun, and asked about his attitude towards the matter.

Pang Yijun was originally from the Ji faction. After Ji Quanyong left, Xu Chaoqi integrated all of them into his own sect. However, he did not expect that Tang Jian suddenly became so close to Yu Chunhao, which made him feel a sense of crisis. Xu Chaoqi had no choice but to decide to talk to them one by one, hoping that these people would not get too close to Tang Jian.

Of course, as the secretary of a province, people like Pang Yijun are also his main targets.

Compared to Zheng Qinghe, Pang Yijun was no longer timid and cautious after entering the office.

Even when Ji Quanyong was in power, Pang Yijun did not completely obey him. In many matters, he would still focus on the spirit of the central government. It was precisely because he put the overall situation first that the upper echelons had never wanted to touch him. Now that the Ji faction has fallen, although he has been implicated, in comparison, the influence on him is not that great.

At least, up to now, the provincial discipline inspection commission system is still under his leadership. Although Deputy Secretary Chang Qingshan is also very high-profile now, he has been there for too short a time and cannot pose a threat to him on some issues.

Of course, if you don't think ahead, you'll have immediate worries. Pang Yijun also knew that Chang Qingshan was Feng Sizhe's man. As time went on, this person was likely to replace him. If he wanted to prevent this from happening again, he needed a good backer. Although this person couldn't suppress Governor Feng, he could still compete with him. So until now, it could be said that he hadn't decided which camp he would join. He was still undecided whether to join the Xu faction or the Yu faction.

Xu Chaoqi smiled and talked to Pang Yijun about work first, and then turned the matter on You Xinguo.

You Xinguo, the executive deputy secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, has always been Pang Yijun's loyal right-hand man. However, he did make a mistake in the matter of Xichuan. He went to Xichuan City according to the instructions of the Provincial Party Committee and was ready to take away Xichuan Municipal Party Committee Secretary He Wenbao and others. Unexpectedly, the earthquake happened at this time, which made his actions a complete laughing stock. Later, because of this incident, You Xinguo was severely punished and his work was temporarily suspended. This incident has always made Pang Yijun very angry and ashamed.

At the beginning, You Xinguo did this matter according to the wishes of the provincial party committee and himself, but now he has been implicated because of it. How can he not feel guilty?

The clever Xu Chaoqi chose to talk to him about this matter, which could be said to have completely grasped Pang Yijun's weakness.

When talking about You Xinguo's case, Pang Yijun was helpless. "Secretary Xu, you know that Comrade Xinguo was entrusted by the provincial party committee to do this matter, but later facts proved that this decision was wrong, but you can't put all the blame on him because of this, it's not fair."

"Yes, it's unfair." Contrary to Pang Yijun's expectation, Xu Chaoqi actually agreed with this point of view.

Pang Yijun was stunned by what Xu Chaoqi said. He thought that the other party would refuse or say some official words, such as asking him to trust the organization, etc. However, the other party directly stated that the organization's punishment of You Xinguo was unfair, which surprised him.

While Pang Yijun was still surprised, Xu Chaoqi continued, "Comrade Yijun, I plan to have a good talk with Governor Feng about Comrade You Xinguo. After all, if we have to say that this is wrong, it is also the fault of our Ducheng Provincial Party Committee. We can't let such an executor bear all the blame for this, don't you think?"

"Yes, yes, Secretary Xu is absolutely right." When Pang Yijun heard that Xu Chaoqi was willing to stand up for You Xinguo and even wanted to talk to Feng Sizhe, he immediately became very excited.

In the matter of You Xinguo, Feng Sizhe's attitude is the most critical, because the decision made at the beginning was the intention of Governor Feng, and now in Ducheng Province, Feng Sizhe's decision is not so easy to be overturned, at least no one will take the initiative to provoke him. Not to mention that You Xinguo did do something wrong in this matter.

Xu Chaoqi saw Pang Yijun's excitement. "Well, this matter is not that easy to handle. You know Governor Feng's temper. He can't tolerate any injustice. Not to mention, this time he is targeting Comrade He Wenbao. You must have heard about their relationship. They knew each other when Governor Feng was the deputy county magistrate. Think about it, with such a relationship, can he watch someone around him suffer injustice? So, I said that things are not that simple."

After Xu Chaoqi said this, Pang Yijun's originally excited expression slowly dimmed. Yes, Feng Sizhe and He Wenbao are old acquaintances. During the Xichuan earthquake this time, He Wenbao fully implemented Governor Feng's intentions and made such a great contribution. Based on this, will Feng Sizhe easily let You Xinguo go?

Just when Pang Yijun's mood fell to the bottom again, Xu Chaoqi spoke again, "Of course, nothing is absolute. For the future of Comrade You Xinguo, I have made certain sacrifices. I believe I can convince Governor Feng."

Xu Chaoqi changed his tone and expressed strong confidence in this matter, which made Pang Yijun see hope again. It can be said that this time he was hopeful and then disappointed, which really made him a little confused about what Xu Chaoqi meant.

However, Pang Yijun's years of work experience told him that since Xu Chaoqi said so much and made such a decision, there must be something that requires his cooperation. Otherwise, how could he suddenly decide to help him?

Just as Pang Yijun was waiting for Xu Chaoqi to make a request, Secretary Xu finally spoke up, "Comrade Yijun, have you heard about what happened at the Traffic Police Corps?"

"Ah!" Suddenly the topic turned to the Traffic Police Corps, which made Pang Yijun stunned at first, and then he thought about what Secretary Xu had just said, and he immediately understood what the other party meant. It turned out that this was a condition for him to support him in this matter as a condition for treating You Xinguo's matter fairly.

Thinking that it was just Xiao Bin, his promotion or demotion did not have much to do with him. In comparison, if You Xinguo could return to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and continue to serve as deputy secretary, it would definitely be a great help to him. Thinking of this, Pang Yijun made the decision without any hesitation. "Secretary Xu, what do you think we should do about this matter? Don't worry, I will insist on obeying the decision of the Provincial Party Committee."
