After breakfast, his body had stored some heat, and he became more agile. Zhang Zhiyuan did not sit in the back seat, but sat in the front passenger seat, smoking a cigarette and chatting with Lu Yiwei.
"Yiwei, what do you think of this personnel change in the city?" Zhang Zhiyuan asked.
Lu Yiwei turned around and said, "Are you talking about the city's leadership?"
"Oh." Zhang Zhiyuan was stunned for a while and said, "Sure, we can talk about it." In front of Lu Yiwei, Zhang Zhiyuan rarely put on airs, and they sat down to chat like good friends. If Lu Yiwei did not wholeheartedly serve Zhang Zhiyuan, there would not be such an effect. After all, Zhang Zhiyuan was the secretary of the County party committee, and Lu Yiwei still had some concerns when he spoke.
Lu Yiwei obviously smelled something different about the sudden change in the city's leadership. He said, "Although I don't understand the intention of the Provincial Party Committee's leader, I have a feeling that something big is going to happen. Secretary Tian's departure was too sudden, and there was almost no sign."
Zhang Zhiyuan nodded and said, "It is sudden! Is there really no sign? "
Lu Yiwei looked at Zhang Zhiyuan and thought to himself, but did not say anything.
"No!" Zhang Zhiyuan said, "I speculate that Tian Chunqiu should have known in advance, or else he would not make such a large-scale personnel change before the National Day."
After being pointed out by Zhang Zhiyuan, Lu Yiwei suddenly realized and said, "Secretary Zhang is really insightful. Why didn't I think of it? It's true."
Zhang Zhiyuan ignored Lu Yiwei's flattery and continued, "Tian Chunqiu, that old fox, did not forget to dig a hole for me before he left. He transferred Yang Derong to my side. What does this mean? He said that Yang Derong had been in the coal industry for decades and had some experience in coal management. Is that true? No! Yang Derong was famous for being an overbearing official in the Northern Region. In Maping County, people call him the 'Retired Emperor'. They say that he doesn't even care about the Secretary of the County party committee and the County Head. Don't you think that Tian Chunqiu is doing this on purpose? "
Lu Yiwei had heard of Yang Derong's deeds and said, "Secretary Zhang, I think this is a good thing."
"Huh?" Zhang Zhiyuan raised his head and looked at Lu Yiwei in confusion.
Lu Yiwei said, "It's true that Yang Derong is a tyrannical official, but as long as you hold the economic lifeline of Nanyang tightly in your hands, he won't be able to overturn the sky. Currently, two of the three industrial parks that you mentioned are already in full swing. Qin Erbao has been arrested and will probably be brought to trial soon. At that time, let Pan Chengjun stand out and fight for it. We will definitely be able to take it back. With these three industrial parks, we basically control 90% of the fiscal revenue. "
"No, no!" Zhang Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "Although what you said makes some sense, you really can't underestimate Yang Derong. He has a lot of power. Moreover, now that Secretary Guo has been transferred away, my days will be a bit difficult! "
Zhang Zhiyuan spoke his mind. Lu Yiwei was worried for him. It was true. Zhang Zhiyuan was personally promoted by Guo Jinzhu, and he walked on one leg, completely relying on him. Who would have thought that Guo Jinzhu would suddenly be transferred away? This line was basically in a mess. Guo Jinzhu was transferred away, Hou Yongzhi passed away, and as the "helmsman" behind the scenes, Tan Lao had no intention of meddling in political affairs. Basically, there was no one to speak for him. Of course, Zhang Zhiyuan was afraid. As the saying goes, "It's easy to be an official with support in the court." Without someone to support him, how could he be an official?
Speaking of which, did Tan Lao really have no intention of meddling in political affairs? In fact, that was not the case. From Guo Jinzhu's transfer, it could be seen that the current political situation did not seem to respect Tan Lao. Otherwise, how could it end up like this? Without the right to speak, he naturally felt powerless.
Through this incident, Zhang Zhiyuan was taught a hard lesson. As an official, if he was absolutely attached to someone, he would eventually die a terrible death! Now, Zhang Zhiyuan clearly felt isolated and helpless. He had become a fishing boat that had lost its way. No matter how hard he tried, he could not find the lighthouse.
The situation was obviously not in his favor! On the surface, Yang Derong was Tian Chunqiu's man, but in reality, he was Mayor Lin Haifeng's man. This was something that Zhang Zhiyuan had discovered long ago. If one were to talk about a person with great wisdom, it would have to be Lin Haifeng.
The two of them were silent for a moment. Then, Zhang Zhiyuan asked again, "Yiwei, who do you think will be the secretary of the Northern State Municipal Party Committee this time? Will Mayor Lin? "
Lu Yiwei said, "According to past practice, under normal circumstances, it is usually from above. I think this time is no exception. Mayor Lin is unlikely."
"Why?"
Lu Yiwei analyzed, "Some time ago, there were rumors in the streets that Mayor Lin and Secretary Guo would compete for the position of Municipal Party Committee Secretary. Now that Secretary Guo has been transferred, it is obvious that he can't compete with Mayor Lin. This brings us back to the question at the beginning. What happened in Northern State that forced the Provincial Party Committee to transfer Tian Chunqiu? If something really happened, they would definitely send a hardliner to deal with it. As a veteran of Northern State, Mayor Lin might be involved in some things. Would the leaders of the Provincial Party Committee be at ease? "
"Yes! What exactly is it? "Zhang Zhiyuan muttered to himself.
Lu Yiwei suddenly thought of Li Hugang and said, "Secretary Zhang, do you think it might be because of Li Hugang?"
"Li Hugang?" Zhang Zhiyuan said, "You said that he is involved in the Shuyang Coal Mine? Impossible! Li Hugang did it flawlessly. Moreover, he was promoted this time, so it shouldn't be. "
But Lu Yiwei insisted, "What if it is a ploy to lure the tiger away from the mountain?"
"…" Zhang Zhiyuan was dumbfounded and did not speak for a long time.
Before they knew it, they had arrived at Jiangdong City. Unexpectedly, Zhang Zhiyuan had arranged for him to turn around and head to Eastern State City. Their movements were very strange. Zhang Zhiyuan did not say anything, and Lu Yiwei was too embarrassed to ask, so he followed Zhang Zhiyuan's instructions and continued to move forward.
When they entered Eastern State City, Zhang Zhiyuan asked, "How much cash do you have?"
Lu Yiwei said, "Only about ten thousand. Is that enough?"
"Go get more!" Zhang Zhiyuan said. As a person who was not greedy, it was more difficult to use money. His savings were only enough to pay for his child's medical expenses. Helpless, he could only seek help from the business-minded Lu Yiwei.
Lu Yiwei parked the car by the side of the road and went to three or four business outlets before he managed to collect two hundred thousand. When he passed it to Zhang Zhiyuan, he still did not say what he was going to do.
"Let's go!" Zhang Zhiyuan looked ahead and said, "To the sewing machine factory."
The Dongzhou City Sewing Machine Factory had a glorious time, reaching the pinnacle, and was famous throughout the country. Back then, when the bicycle, sewing machine, and watch were the three most popular products, the Flying Blade sewing machine produced by the Eastern State Sewing Machine Factory sold well in half of China and became a national famous enterprise. With the passage of time, the three most popular products were quickly replaced by fridges, televisions, and washing machines, becoming the three most popular products in the early 1990s. Today, these three products had entered the homes of ordinary people. Houses, cars, and tickets became the three most popular products in the 21st century.
The sewing machine factory was in decline, struggling at death's door, waiting to go bankrupt at any time. Naturally, a large number of laid-off workers were born here, and it became another difficult problem that affected the stability of society.
The car drove into the family compound of the sewing machine factory. It was as dilapidated as autumn leaves that could be blown away by a gust of wind. Rows of low-rise bungalows, narrow aisles filled with all kinds of goods, and small carts selling pancakes and fruit pancakes could be seen everywhere. Garbage was everywhere, filthy, and the smell was unbearable.
Lu Yiwei stopped at a slightly cleaner site. Zhang Zhiyuan said, "Wait here, I'll be out in a moment." After that, he took a deep breath and got out of the car with a bag of money. After getting out of the car, he straightened the collar of his trench coat and walked forward with his head down. He walked to the front of a bungalow, looked around, and suddenly dashed in.
Even if Zhang Zhiyuan did not say anything, Lu Yiwei could feel something. However, the fact that Zhang Zhiyuan brought him here today instead of his driver, Xiao Guo, showed that Zhang Zhiyuan trusted him. Lu Yiwei put down the car seat, leaned back comfortably, and looked forward at the messy courtyard.
This scene was familiar, and Lu Yiwei suddenly thought of Du Shanshan.
Du Shanshan, Lu Yiwei's high school classmate. When he was in high school, Lu Yiwei had a crush on the beautiful Du Shanshan, but he did not dare to confess. After graduating from high school, he went to university, and Du Shanshan disappeared. It was not until Niu Fuyong brought him to a holiday villa in Dongzhou City that he met Du Shanshan in the massage room that he was shocked. After that, Du Shanshan left, and after many twists and turns, he found her again and quietly visited her. Du Shanshan was the same, pushing a tricycle to sell snacks. Life was not easy, and it was extremely difficult.
Another year had passed. Was Du Shanshan doing well? Thinking of what happened in Inner Mongolia, Lu Yiwei did not have the heart to disturb Du Shanshan's life. Everyone had the right to live their own life, and whether they were good or bad was another matter.
Thinking of his own love experience, Lu Yiwei felt a bit ridiculous. All in all, his love experience in this life was a failure. In high school and university, he almost always had a crush. After graduation, he played the fashionable "flash marriage." Until now, the few relationships he had had had no beginning. He often summed up himself. Was it because his EQ was not good enough, his charm was not good enough, or was God deliberately torturing him?
Sigh! Every time he thought about it, he felt sad.
Half an hour passed, and Zhang Zhiyuan still did not come out. No matter how strong Lu Yiwei's curiosity was, he could not interfere with the private life of his leader. It was better to avoid trouble, he had always thought so. Just when he was fidgeting, his phone beeped. It was the ringtone of a text message. He took it out and saw it was still from Xia Jinhe. He could not help but clench his teeth.
These days, Xia Jinhe sent several text messages almost every day, but Lu Yiwei did not read them. For Lu Yiwei, who was emotionally fragile, he could not bear this kind of blow. He had invested a lot in Xia Jinhe, but he did not expect this result. Until now, he often asked himself what kind of person Xia Jinhe was.
After hesitating for a long time, Lu Yiwei opened the text message.
