Ma Zhenhe asked curiously, "Old Yang, what do you think will happen to Xu Caimao once the Eastern City's Standing Committee is removed? Will he stay put after returning to the province, or will he be relegated to the second line? Also, who will be the Jiangdong City's top leader? "
Yang Xiaoqing adjusted his spectacles and sat up. "Who knows? We are just making wild guesses here. The Provincial Government will surely make arrangements."
Ma Zhenhe turned to Liu Shuguang and said, "Director Liu, tell me."
Liu Shuguang adjusted his sitting posture and smiled. "Xiaoqing is in the Organization Department and doesn't even know. How would I know?"
Ma Zhenhe still refused to give up. He asked Zhang Zhiyuan, "Zhiyuan has worked with the provincial leaders before. Can you analyze it for me?"
Zhang Zhiyuan took a puff of his cigarette and said thoughtfully, "I can't analyze this kind of thing. Director Ma is well-informed. Did you hear something? Why don't you analyze it for me?"
Zhang Zhiyuan very cleverly pushed the question back to Ma Zhenhe. Ma Zhenhe originally wanted to say it, but now that Zhang Zhiyuan gave him a way out, he immediately focused and said: "I heard that Governor Xu and Governor Shen are going to be transferred to other provinces, so there are two vacancies. Although Governor Xu is the Deputy Governor, Xu Caimao is likely to replace him in the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee. The other Deputy Governor is likely to be from the prefectural Party Secretary. As for who it will be, I don't know.
"As for the Jiangdong Municipal Party Committee Secretary, there are many versions. Some say that Bai Zongfeng will not move and will go back to normal. Others say that Bai Zongfeng will move to the capital and Xu Caimao will replace him. What's more, the Provincial Party Committee Secretary Zhang may re-use Qiu Yuanhang, the Provincial People's Congress Deputy Director. Maybe he will become the Municipal Party Committee Secretary. "
As soon as he said this, there was a dead silence that lasted for more than ten seconds. Ma Zhenhe said with a blank face, "What? You don't believe me? Just watch, I'm not far from the truth. This is all from the inside. It's very reliable."
Ma Zhenhe was singing a one-man show, and the others were used to being onlookers.
There were three types of people who would not participate in this kind of sensitive topic at a dinner of this scale. The first was the highest-ranking official present. Among those present today, Liu Shuguang was the highest-ranking official. Although Zhang Zhiyuan and Wang Qingchuan were of the same rank as him, Liu Shuguang was an old chief, while Liu Shuguang was a newly promoted department official and Wang Qingchuan was a prefectural official. Naturally, they could not be compared. As a leader, he knew what to say to who on the right occasion. He would not talk about personnel changes or the matters of the senior leaders, nor would he stop others from talking. He would listen quietly and nod in agreement. Even if he knew some secrets, who knew if the walls had ears? If word got out, it would be disadvantageous to him.
The first type were those involved in the game. Wang Qingchuan did not take the initiative to participate in the conversation. It was very likely that this time, the relevant leaders had already talked to him to determine the next step. But everything was unpredictable, and no one knew what the outcome would be until the very last moment. Therefore, he maintained a cautious attitude. He did not say what he should not say. Staying silent would not make a mistake.
There was another type of outsider. As the lowest-ranking official present, Lu Yiwei would naturally not be in the Provincial Party Committee to adjust the personnel sequence. Moreover, he only had a single source of information, and the information he had was not very accurate. If he said something wrong or leaked it to the ears of a leader, it would be disadvantageous to his future. His rank was not there, and he did not have the right to speak. In addition, he attended the dinner today with a purpose, and he knew that the more he spoke, the more mistakes he would make.
And those who were more active and eloquent at the dinner were usually those who had no hope of promotion and were emotional. They claimed that they did not care, but in fact, they cared more than anyone else and paid extra attention to it. They used this method to vent their emotions and satisfy their curiosity.
Every dinner had a certain purpose, and it would not be done carelessly. The one who set up the dinner tonight was the chairman of the Dongsheng Group, Lu Dongsheng. He should have invited Zhang Zhiyuan and Ma Zhenhe through Wang Qingchuan. As for why the group leader, Yang Xiaoqing appeared, it should be a coincidence, or he had a good relationship with someone.
In addition, Zhang Zhiyuan must have done something in advance to invite Liu Shuguang to this dinner. It was even possible that he was not the one who invited them, but Wang Qingchuan or Lu Dongsheng.
Lu Yiwei was surprised to find that there was not a single member of the East Lake Society present. Was it some kind of signal? Of course, the meaning of dinner was different from one dinner to another, and he could not make wild guesses. Also, the core members of the East Lake Society were under adjustment, and during this sensitive period, they would not come out to participate in this kind of meaningless dinner.
The speaker did not mean it, but the listener did. Ma Zhenhe's words just now shocked Lu Yiwei. Regardless of whether it was true or not, the signal was a little unfriendly. Governor Shen was leaving, and this was not good news for Zhang Zhiyuan. After all, he had been a leader for three to four years, and once he left, no one would speak up for him.
Was there a possibility that Shen Guangming knew that he was going to be transferred a long time ago, and before he left, he helped Zhang Zhiyuan settle down. On the other hand, could Bai Zongfeng know that he was going to be transferred in advance, and that was why he suddenly promoted him? Gu Wei District did not succeed, and he thought of a way to give the secretary of the County party committee as an explanation before he left.
The closer he got to the truth, the more afraid he felt. It was like the darkness before dawn, and no one knew what would happen after dawn.
There was also Qiu Yuanhang, this person had been frequently appearing on TV recently. Could it be like what Ma Zhenhe said, that he was going to be reused?
All these questions made this meal dull and tasteless. Not only him, but the others were also absent-minded, and in the end, the meal ended hastily.
After the meal, Lu Dongsheng arranged other entertainment activities, and except for Ma Zhenhe, the others left in a hurry, saying that they had something to do.
After leaving the club, Zhang Zhiyuan gave him a look, and Lu Yiwei hurried forward, bringing him to Liu Shuguang, and said softly, "Chief Liu, Yiwei wants to report to you, you see …"
Liu Shuguang stopped and looked at Lu Yiwei, thinking for a moment, and said, "Oh, how about this, come to my office at 9 am tomorrow."
"Thank you, Chief Liu."
Liu Shuguang got into the car and left. After sending off the others, Zhang Zhiyuan gestured for them to get into his car, find a secluded teahouse, and enter the private room on the second floor.
Only the two of them were left, and they could say whatever they couldn't say at the dinner table. After sitting down, Lu Yiwei lit a cigarette for him, and said, "Secretary Zhang, isn't it a bit rash to invite Chief Liu tonight? He doesn't look very happy."
Zhang Zhiyuan comforted, "It's okay, he's a person who doesn't show his emotions. He knows everyone here, and he's quite familiar with them, or else he wouldn't have come to the dinner. Ma Zhenhe, on the other hand, is not good with words, and he poked at Chief Liu's weak spot. "
"Oh, Chief Liu might also be moved?"
