Rebirth of the Rising Sun

In the long run, Feng Sizhe and Hou Weidong will definitely have a dispute, and the influence of this dispute will be very long-lasting. Maybe Feng Sizhe himself did not have such great wishes or ambitions when he was just reborn. But his hard work over the years has indeed been rewarded with equal returns.

As the 40-year-old governor, Feng Sizhe has more and more ambitious goals for the future.

There is no such thing as standing still in the political world. If you advance, you advance; if you don't advance, you retreat. This is what makes it different from other industries. When you are standing still, others are advancing. There are only so many positions. When you block some people's steps forward, they will naturally try to step on your shoulders to climb up. At this time, your failure to advance becomes retreat.

For the future of the Zhao family, or to say Feng Sizhe is also confident that if he can gain more power, he can bring more and better changes to the country. For this reason, his ideas are getting more ambitious. Of course, what he knows more clearly is that with his current relationship with Hou Weidong, even if he restrains all his edge and starts to do things carefully from now on, once he really gets to the top, will he allow himself to sit in a good position without moving?

The answer is obviously no. Therefore, the result has long been there, only one person between him and Hou Weidong will win, as the saying goes, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain.

Even if it was out of self-defense, Feng Sizhe could not let Hou Weidong develop too smoothly and surpass himself. This was the same as Hou Weidong's attitude towards Feng Sizhe.

So, after thinking about it, since there will be a war sooner or later and it cannot be avoided, it would be better to greatly weaken the influence of the Hou family before the war comes. By doing so, at least he will feel more relaxed when he really has to face this problem in the future.

Feng Sizhe's success today is inseparable from his character of preparing for the rainy day. He often said in his heart that if a man does not think about the future, he will have immediate worries. To be a wise man, he cannot be like an ordinary person who takes one step at a time. He must learn and adapt to taking one step at a time and looking three steps ahead, or even further ahead.

It was precisely because Feng Sizhe saw further that he came to Kyoto without hesitation this time when things were about to go wrong. This time he came a little risky. If it weren't for the funds from the Aqid Consortium, he might not have found such a suitable excuse.

Back to the point, Feng Sizhe still had to help Zuo Bing defeat the Hou family once. As long as they won this time, it would be like telling everyone that although the Hou family was powerful, they were not invincible.

"Comrade Zuo Bing, it's great that you have such a firm idea. Don't worry, I will support you without hesitation. So, time is limited, so please talk to me now about who your Zuo family has contacted during this period and what other preparations you have made."

If someone else had asked this question, Zuo Bing would not have told him. But this time it was Feng Sizhe who asked, so of course he would tell him everything he knew. This time, he was helping him. If he didn't trust him, he would be taking his kindness for granted.

Three cars arrived at the gate of the NDRC building. A secretary-like man got out of the second car, walked up to the guard and said something to him. Then, the guard seemed to make a phone call.

All of this made the people who were following them feel a little confused. But before they could react, the secretary-like person had already walked out of the guard booth, and then returned to the car, and the three cars drove away.

The two trackers' attention was now entirely focused on the second car, and they did not notice at all that a man in a black suit had already left the first car. Needless to say, the person who left was Zuo Bing himself.

After the three cars started again, they drove back to the Zhao family courtyard at a constant speed without stopping for a moment.

The car responsible for tracking naturally returned to its original position. After meeting with the two people who stayed behind and learning that no other people were going out or entering the Zhao family at this time, they made a detailed report to Hou Weidong on what had just happened via mobile phone.

Hou Weidong was also somewhat puzzled by the Zhao family's actions, but when he called the Development and Reform Commission, he learned that the Zhao family wanted to meet Comrade Fu En. However, when Mr. Zhao's secretary told the guard about this request, the guard reported the situation to the higher-ups, and they were immediately turned away.

People like Fu En do have respect for Mr. Zhao, but it is impossible for them to buy your face and listen to you. For this reason, when Fu En knew that Mr. Zhao wanted to see him, he immediately told his subordinates that he was not in the office, but was doing research downstairs.

With this excuse, the Zhao family convoy would of course leave. After all, it was not a good idea for Mr. Zhao to stay here all the time with his status.

This was the excuse Feng Sizhe gave, an excuse that reassured the people who were following him. Only such an excuse could make them think that the Zhao family convoy did nothing this time, and simply went to the Development and Reform Commission.

After Hou Weidong knew the truth, all he thought about was the love that Mr. Zhao had for Feng Sizhe. He didn't even think that if someone like Mr. Zhao wanted to meet someone, why didn't he call in advance to confirm before going?

Hou Weidong is now filled with jealousy. At least he knows that his grandfather will not personally step in just to get some policies and funds.

Fu En should have thought of these things, but how could he know that the Zhao family's convoy only came to his place this time? He thought that Mr. Zhao was doing something else and happened to pass by his place. When he thought about the suffering his grandson had suffered before, he wanted to see him and ask for an explanation.

After this incident, Fu En made a plan, which was to try to avoid Feng Sizhe in the future. It was not worth it to make someone like Mr. Zhao angry for no reason and get scolded in the end.

It can be said that Feng Sizhe's random plan was because everyone had different ideas, so they all ignored the loopholes in this plan.

Zuo Bing took a taxi from the Development and Reform Commission and returned home. As soon as he got home, he went to see his grandfather and father and told them everything Feng Sizhe had told him. He even deliberately mentioned that it was very likely that the Hou family had promised him a position as a provincial standing committee member in order to avoid escalating the matter.

Originally, Zuo Lao and Zuo Zhongqing should have thought of such a thing a long time ago, but because the matter concerned their grandson and son, they ignored this part. Now when they heard Zuo Bing say that this was Feng Sizhe's guess, they all thought it made sense.

Just at this time, Hou Zhennan called and said that he had something to discuss with Zuo Zhongqing in the afternoon.

It was just this one phone call that made Zuo Lao, Zuo Zhongqing and Zuo Bing, three generations of a family, think of the same thing, that is, this time Feng Sizhe might have been right, the Hou family wanted to show goodwill. Of course, the one who would gain the most benefit was the Hou family, and the Zuo family only got a small share of the benefits.

In the study of the Zuo family, the three of them had a serious discussion and decided not to agree to the Hou family's request. It was just an ordinary provincial standing committee position. Even without the help of the Hou family, the Zuo family could definitely get the position with their own abilities and Zuo Bing's own qualifications.

If that was the case, why would he need to ask the Hou family for a favor? Besides, Zuo Bing's matter was basically settled, but the Hou family came out at this time. If they cared about themselves, would they do such a thing?

To this end, there is only one answer, that is, the Hou family does not take the Zuo family seriously at all. If this is the case, why should they save face for these people?

"Zhong Qing, don't have to worry about anything this time. Just have a good meeting with Hou Zhennan. If things are really as we expected, and they want to give us a vice-provincial level position to make us back down, then you must not agree. Humph! The worst that can happen is that they will be angry. That's nothing. Our Zuo family is not that easy to bully." Old man Zuo Daoyuan was really angry at this moment.

Back then, he was considered one of Hou Qishou's subordinates, and he was always suppressed. Now his son is also in a high position, the secretary of the municipal party committee of Jingdu, so why should he look at the face of the Hou family? Although you, Hou Zhennan, are also one of the most capable cadres, you are only at the same level as your son, and even in terms of the importance of your position, you are not as important as your son, so there is no need to be afraid of the Hou family.

With his father's words, Zuo Zhongqing felt relieved. To be honest, the only person he was afraid of was Hou Lao. After all, Hou Lao was once a national leader and Qin Xianghua's former superior, and he had helped Qin Xianghua. It was precisely because of these identities that he was a little afraid.

It can be said that he was only afraid of Mr. Hou, and he was not that afraid of Hou Zhennan.

Seeing that the matter was resolved, Zuo Bing spoke again, "Grandpa, Dad, Governor Feng said that we can still go to the Miao family. The Miao family will support us in this matter."

"The Miao family will support us, what makes them say that?" Zuo Zhongqing felt incredible when he heard his son say that the Miao family would support the Zuo family. After all, the influence of the Hou family is there. Although the Miao family also has their own power and will not be too concerned about the Hou family, it is totally wrong to get involved without reason and support one side clearly.

"I also asked Governor Feng this question, but he did not give a direct answer. He just said that Comrade Miao Zihan had a good impression of me and also called home to tell them about this matter, so this time the Miao family will stand on our side." Zuo Bing was a little confused by this obviously favorable answer, but after all, support is a good thing.
