Rebirth of the Rising Sun

Not long after Li Yige was promoted to the position of Organization Minister, he knew that it would be very difficult for him to get promoted to the next level in this adjustment of the county party committee. Basically, he did not have any extravagant demands. He just thought in his heart that he must help Feng Sizhe get promoted. He helped him to become a manager from a servant. This great favor should not be forgotten. In addition, his nephew Li Shuang was trained very well. This was all attributed to the credit of County Magistrate Feng. Maybe he would need his nephew's help in the future. Li Yige never thought that his casual idea would come true in the future. In the future, he needed the help of his nephew Li Shuang in a major event, which saved him from suffering.

This was not the first time that He Zhuhua came to Li Yi'ge's room. Li Yi'ge did not show any special expression for his arrival except due respect.

"Yi Ge, sir, I haven't had a good talk with you for a while, and I don't know how you think about me, the deputy secretary in charge of personnel, and whether I am qualified for the job." He Zhuhua tried his best to be patient and smiled sincerely. This Li Yi Ge was different from Cui Yan. If Cui Yan was not suitable, he could be replaced, but the organization minister and the secretary could only be won over and would not be removed easily.

It was precisely because of Li Yi Ge's importance that He Zhuhua had to keep smiling and try his best to be kind. Who asked him to beg him now? Besides, he had just been promoted to Organization Minister not long ago, so it was difficult for him to change in a short period of time. At this time, he could not promise him anything. He really didn't know what to say to make him speak to him.

"Secretary He works very hard and is a role model for me to learn from." Li Yi Ge had no idea what He Zhuhua was up to, and now he could only follow his words. After all, he was his leader, so he still had to be humble and respectful.

Li Yi Ge's answer was quite standard and didn't sound bad. He Zhuhua nodded. "Well, there's no need for us to be like this. In fact, we can be good friends outside of work. You see, I'm a few years older than you. From now on, you can call me Brother He and I can call you Brother Li."

He Zhuhua took the initiative to speak to Li Yi Ge by his personal name in order to get closer to him and also to make a good start for the following conversation.

Li Yige was even more confused by He Zhuhua's difference from before. In the past, Secretary He would usually speak to him in a businesslike tone, as if he was afraid that he would forget that he was his leader. He would always speak in a deputy secretary's tone. But what happened today? He actually took the initiative to address him as a brother?

"Secretary He, are you...are you okay?" Li Yi Ge asked with some confusion.

"Ah, I'm fine. Nothing will happen to me. I'm in good health, hehe." He Zhuhua was probably feeling that he was indeed a little too enthusiastic today. After a burst of silly laughter, he thought to himself, this Li Yige, who is usually so smart, how come he is confused today? Can't he see that I am showing him goodwill?

Li Yige was not stupid, he was really confused by He Zhuhua, and anyone would be confused at this moment. Usually he was impartial and even put on airs, but today he suddenly became kind, to the extreme, and anyone would be shocked at first.

"Secretary He, are there any personnel...issues you want to talk about? Don't worry, just make the arrangements. I think the Organization Department and I will evaluate it seriously." Li Yi Ge looked at He Zhuhua, who was completely abnormal today, and wondered if he wanted to promote someone but was too embarrassed to ask, so he had his current attitude. If so, he might as well do him a favor. As long as the person being promoted is not too out of line, he should just turn a blind eye to the matter.

He Zhuhua did not expect that Li Yi Ge would understand his intention in this way. Although the other party had released enough goodwill, this was not what he wanted. If Li Yi Ge said this at other times, he might be happy, but today was different. Today he wanted more. What he needed was Li Yi Ge's vote of support for him. What he needed was to become the county party secretary.

"Brother Li, I came to you today not for anything else, not to promote anyone, but..." He frowned, thinking that it would be better to just say it directly, it would be awkward to beat around the bush. "Actually, I came to you today to hear your opinion on the adjustment of our Dahu County Party Committee. Who do you think is more suitable to be the secretary in Dahu County?"

"What?" Li Yige was startled, and finally understood what He Zhuhua meant. He now realized that he was here just to listen to his opinion, and to cast a vote of support for him when he became the county party secretary.

How could this be possible? If He Zhuhua became the secretary, what would happen to County Magistrate Fang? If County Magistrate Fang did not move, how could Feng Sizhe become the county magistrate?

After thinking through a series of questions quickly, Li Yi Ge raised his head again and looked at He Zhuhua very seriously and said, "Secretary He, you also know that I am only the organization minister of a county, not a city. I don't think I have any say in the selection of the county party secretary, right?"

"Well, how could that be? The party is democratic, and on the issue of personnel appointments, the opinions of comrades will be sought from all sides. I think Brother Li's opinion is very important." He Zhuhua said to Li Yi'ge with a very serious expression. Whether he could get the support of many votes among the county party committee standing committee members depended entirely on Li Yi'ge's next choice. At this moment, he was somewhat excited.

This forced Li Yi Ge to express his position. Fortunately, Secretary Sun had not left yet, and Li Yi Ge still had someone to shirk responsibility. Without wanting to offend He Zhuhua directly, he finally spoke up and expressed his attitude, "Oh, in that case, I think I still have to seek Secretary Sun's opinion. You know I was the director of the county party committee office before, and then Secretary Sun nominated me to be the organization minister. It's impossible for me not to ask the leader's opinion on such a big issue, right?"

"Well, this is your own problem. Secretary Sun is about to step down. Why do you worry so much? You see, I just talked to Director Cui, and his attitude is very clear. He, a director of a county party committee office, dares to make his own decisions. Then, as the organization minister, what is there to be afraid of? Right?" He Zhuhua watched as Li Yi Ge really brought up Secretary Sun. This brought up a set of words that he had thought of long ago. The meaning was very clear. He wanted to tell Li Yi Ge that even Cui Yan had seen the situation clearly and was speaking to me. You'd better follow his advice. In this way, you can still do a good job as the organization minister in the future. Otherwise, I don't know what the situation will be like.

"Director Cui is Director Cui. Secretary He, please don't confuse me with him. My attitude is clear, that is, we must seek Secretary Sun's opinion first. I'm sorry, if Secretary He has nothing to do, please go back. I do have a lot of things to do here." When Li Yi Ge heard He Zhuhua comparing himself with Cui Yan and using this matter to threaten him, he immediately showed an unhappy expression on his face and acted as if to see him off.

He Zhuhua never expected that Li Yi Ge, who seemed to be very smart, would be so stubborn. He knew that Secretary Sun was no longer capable, but still listened to him. This kind of person is foolishly loyal and has no political wisdom because he cannot see the situation clearly. This kind of person really disappointed him.

"Well, Minister Li, take care of yourself. I hope you will know what to say when the leaders of the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department come to talk to you later. You must think clearly about your future." He Zhuhua was also a little angry. He was the deputy secretary and he personally came to talk to you, the organization minister, with sincerity, but you didn't give him any face at all and even dared to act like you were seeing him off. How could he not be angry?

He Zhuhua walked out of Li Yige's office angrily. Li Yige was also very angry. He didn't expect that Cui Yan, who was promoted by Secretary Sun, would become He Zhuhua's man. If so, wouldn't the situation be very unfavorable to Feng Sizhe? No, he must tell Feng Sizhe about this so that he can be prepared in advance.

When Li Yi Ge called Feng Sizhe and briefly told him what had just happened when He Zhuhua came to his office, County Magistrate Feng just smiled and said, "You should report this matter to Secretary Sun. We should believe that Secretary Sun will definitely have his own way of handling things."

Li Yi Ge slapped his head then. That's right. Although Secretary Sun is about to retire, he is still the county party secretary and the head of Dahu County. Cui Yan has defected to other camps so early. I think this will make Secretary Sun very angry. Next, I just need to report the matter. What Secretary Sun wants to do is his business.

Li Yige understood what Feng Sizhe meant, so he came to Sun Shicun's office and told him what had just happened under the pretext of reporting ordinary work. After that, he tactfully withdrew, and he wanted to give Secretary Sun some time to think about things.

Secretary Sun was indeed very angry after listening to Li Yi'ge's report.

It is said that in official circles people get forgotten when someone leaves, but that is after the person has left. Before this person left, some people wanted to jump out. How could this not make him, the secretary, angry?
