Rebirth of the Rising Sun

After the two sat down in the reception area, Chang Qingshan continued to report, "Yang Dawei took all the affairs of Chuan'an Park on himself, saying that he had asked for a bribe of 10 million yuan from the manager of Ma Teng Real Estate, and then promised to give him a break when the project was completed and inspected. At the same time, he also resigned from the positions of Standing Committee Member, Committee Member, and Secretary of the Chuancheng Municipal Committee. I heard that the report has been sent to Secretary Xu's office."

Listening to Chang Qingshan's report, Feng Sizhe frowned again. Yang Dawei actually exposed such a big problem. Didn't he know how serious the crime of soliciting a bribe of 10 million yuan was? And he just took it on. If he said so, doesn't it prove that there are still many big problems behind him?

It is not difficult to think about this matter. On the surface, he can bear such a serious crime. It is conceivable how serious it will be if all the problems are verified. This voluntary admission should only be the tip of the iceberg.

"Governor, I think there is more to the problem than just this. Should we continue investigating?" Chang Qingshan had obviously thought of this question as well, and asked Feng Sizhe out loud.

"Not yet." Feng Sizhe waved his hand. "How about this, the comrades from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection will have to trouble you to confirm the existing evidence of this matter and investigate it first. Don't be in a hurry."

There is a lot of meaning in Feng Sizhe's words "don't be anxious". He didn't say not to investigate, nor did he say to continue investigating. In short, by doing this, the initiative is in your hands.

Although Chang Qingshan didn't know what Feng Sizhe was thinking, he thought that since he said that, he must have his own reasons. He nodded immediately and said, "Okay, I will do as the governor says."

"Well, thank you for your hard work. If anyone puts pressure on you, just report it to me." Feng Sizhe also knew that Yang Dawei's case would definitely cause a small earthquake in Ducheng Province. He didn't know how many officials would be implicated. Basically, everyone hoped that the case would be settled quickly, so that some people would not have to worry anymore. Now, before the case was concluded, the pressure from all sides would obviously not be too small. At that time, Chang Qingshan alone would not be able to withstand the pressure.

Chang Qingshan heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that he had to report to Feng Sizhe under pressure. He also wanted to take on some things, but he also knew that his status was not enough.

Chang Qingshan left after reporting the matter, and then Feng Sizhe called the office of Miao Zihan, the provincial organization minister, and said, "Zihan, I think we can take action now."

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

Xu Chaoqi sat on the chair in the secretary's office with a look of worry on his brow.

Since he took office, he has been in trouble. First, Ji Quanyong made a mistake and was forced to leave. Then Guan Denggui, Su Hanmin, Mei Guolong, Zou Anlin, Wo Lingming and others were arrested for various reasons. I thought that this result was shocking. The capital province could be quiet for a while, but no one expected that Yang Dawei would happen next. He openly asked for a bribe of 10 million yuan from a businessman. After this incident, I think the impression of the capital province in the central government will drop again.

As the secretary of the provincial party committee, Xu Chaoqi had an unshirkable responsibility for what had happened. At least from Central Party Committee's perspective, he was not doing a job worthy of his position as secretary.

Xu Chaoqi pressed his head with both hands helplessly. His old migraine problem had recurred recently. In the past, taking some medicine would be effective, but this time it lasted for a long time and there was no sign of improvement, which made him even more distressed.

Secretary Wu Xin's voice suddenly sounded outside the door, "Boss, Deputy Secretary Yu has something to report to you."

As soon as he heard that Yu Chunhao was coming, Xu Chaoqi forced himself to cheer up and said, "Please ask him to come in." While saying this, he muttered softly, "Why did you come just now? You are really patient."

Yu Chunhao strode into the office and greeted Xu Chaoqi respectfully as soon as he saw him, "Hello, Secretary."

During this period, ever since Xu Chaoqi and Feng Sizhe formed an alliance and began to suppress some people from the Yu faction and the Lao Ji faction, the relationship between the two sides has undergone subtle changes. Yu Chunhao couldn't help but be much more respectful when he saw Xu Chaoqi. There was nothing he could do about it. Who made you inferior to others in strength and official rank?

"Comrade Chunhao is here, please take a seat." Xu Chaoqi was indeed arrogant. In front of Yu Chunhao, he was indeed very confident. This person was now being suppressed by him in every aspect.

"Yes." Yu Chunhao agreed quickly and sat down on the chair opposite the desk.

"Well, Comrade Chunhao, is there anything I can help you with?" Xu Chaoqi asked as if he didn't know the other party's intention.

After hearing this, Yu Chunhao had an urge to curse, "Don't you know what I mean by coming here?" Yang Dawei had already turned himself in to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, and his resignation report had been submitted to the Provincial Party Committee a few hours ago, but why didn't you approve it as the secretary? Do you still want to expand this matter and provoke other people?

Of course, these are all what Yu Chunhao thought in his heart, and he would never say them out loud. "Yes, this time I came to report some situations to the secretary."

"Oh, what's going on?" Xu Chaoqi said with a chuckle.

"It's like this. I don't know how the matter of Yang Dawei's colleague spread among the people below, causing some comrades below to panic, especially some cadres in Chuandu City. They have worked under Yang Dawei's leadership for a long time. Now that their secretary has committed a crime, these people are a little scared. As a result, there will inevitably be problems in their work." Yu Chunhao used the cadres of Chuandu City to make the case, in fact, to tell Xu Chaoqi that the case concerning Yang Dawei could be closed.

"Asshole." Hearing these words, Xu Chaoqi snorted angrily, "These staff members of the Discipline Inspection Commission, don't they know the discipline? How did Yang Dawei's affairs get spread? Who spread it? I think we need to investigate it thoroughly."

Hearing that Xu Chaoqi didn't answer his question but instead changed the subject, Yu Chunhao was stunned and thought, "You are such a good secretary who can pretend to be confused. What I am talking about now is that the case should be closed earlier, not who leaked the information." Besides, Yang Dawei was a former member of the provincial standing committee and the secretary of the provincial capital. How could he have concealed such a big thing as turning himself in to the Commission for Discipline Inspection? But since Xu Chaoqi wanted to bring this up, doesn't it prove that he didn't see through it, but pretended not to see through it? There must be other reasons.

For this reason, Yu Chunhao did not dare to point out anything on this matter, but just followed the other party's words and said, "Yes, the discipline issues of the Discipline Inspection Commission need to be corrected." After sighing, he brought the topic back, "But now that Yang Dawei's matter has spread, should we consider how to deal with this matter next? As the saying goes, the longer the night, the more dreams there are. The secretary of the provincial capital city cannot be left undecided forever. We need to decide on the candidate as soon as possible."

Yu Chunhao successfully brought the topic back, which made Xu Chaoqi unable to laugh. "Well, yes, the candidate must be decided, but you also know that this is a position of provincial standing committee member after all, and it must report to the central government and is also decided by the higher-ups. I think you should find Comrade Miao Zihan to see if there is a quota recommended in our province first. Hey, good things should not be given to outsiders, such a good position should not be given to others out of the blue."

Xu Chaoqi had no choice but to say this. Although he was the secretary of a province, he did not have a strong backer in the upper echelons. Otherwise, wouldn't this vacant standing committee position be an opportunity for him to lobby for someone of his own to take this position? Wouldn't that be great?

But Xu Chaoqi knew that he had a reputation for being incompetent. He had no strong connections with those above him, so such positions could only be left to those with ability. So in comparison, he was inclined to select a cadre from within the province. In this way, at least a lot of positions would be vacated. How could he lose out?

Yu Chunhao sighed in his heart when he heard what Xu Chaoqi said. How could he not be embarrassed? It would be strange if he could get a satisfactory result if he consulted with Miao Zihan. Although he was the deputy secretary and the deputy secretary in charge of personnel, he had no status in front of Miao Zihan. With the support of the Miao family, when had she ever taken him seriously?

Fortunately, this time Yu Chunhao did not think about occupying the position of the Standing Committee member. What he needed was to resolve Yang Dawei’s problem as soon as possible. In this way, Ma Teng Real Estate could be saved. In this way, he and his son would be safe. This is the most important thing.

"Okay, then I'll discuss it with Minister Miao." Yu Chunhao nodded. This was the only thing he could do.

Soon, under Yu Chunhao's initiative, Miao Zihan came to his office. As soon as she entered the door, she didn't even sit down, but said, "Deputy Secretary Yu, do you have something to talk to me about?"

Yu Chunhao thought to himself, would I come to you if there was nothing going on?

Although he was very unhappy in his heart, he could not show it on his face. Who could blame him for having a much stronger backing than him? "It's like this. Comrade Yang Dawei has had problems. He has submitted his resignation report to the provincial party committee. I think it's only a matter of time before it's approved. I have also reported this to Secretary Xu. Secretary Xu meant that we should recommend a candidate first and report it to the central government so as to solve this problem as soon as possible. Haha, I wonder if the provincial organization department has any considerations in this regard?"

Miao Zihan really hated Yu Chunhao's fake smile, but due to work reasons, some contact was unavoidable. "Well, I heard about this matter, and I also consulted with several deputy ministers of the Organization Department. In the end, everyone agreed that there is only one person in our Ducheng Province who has such qualifications and work ability to be competent for this role, and he is the current deputy governor of the provincial government, Comrade Yuan Weimin."
