It was 9 pm.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and the moon was covered.
"Aunty, Uncle, it's getting late. I will go back first." Dong Xuebing looked at his watch and said goodbye. "Have an early rest."
Su Yan's mother said warmly. "Can you stay for a while?"
Su Yan's father was also enjoying himself. "Do you want another cup of tea?"
Dong Xuebing replied. "I will not disturb you. I will come again when I am free."
Su Yan said. "Dad, Mum, Secretary Dong still has many things to do."
"Alright. Come over for dinner when you are free. Treat this place like your own home. I will let you try my cooking next time." Su Yan's mother laughed.
Dong Xuebing stood up and smiled. "Alright. I will go now."
Su Yan's father walked over. "Let us send you out."
"No. You had drunk quite a lot. Don't come out. It's cold outside." Dong Xuebing refused. "Just ask Xiao Su to send me out."
Su Yan's parents walked Dong Xuebing to the door.
"Secretary Dong, come often." Su Yan's mother waved.
Su Yan's father also said to Dong Xuebing, who was about to go downstairs. "If Xiao Yan does something wrong, you can scold him. Sorry for troubling you."
Dong Xuebing laughed. "It's not that serious. Let's go back."
After chatting for a while, Dong Xuebing walked out of the Su family's apartment. He was sober from the cold air.
Su Yan followed behind him. "Secretary Dong, let me call a taxi for you?"
Dong Xuebing waved his hand. "There's no rush. Accompany me for a while and call a taxi later. It's late, and everyone should be resting. Let's not disturb the drivers."
Su Yan knew Dong Xuebing might have something to say to him and did not say anything else.
This was Su Yan's home, not some agency's family quarters. Su Yan's previous position did not give him the right to have a dormitory in the family quarters, but he would definitely have one in the future. However, this was still his family's old house, an old neighborhood, so there was no need to be too secretive when talking. Other than a few familiar old neighbors, basically no one knew about Su Yan's situation. Moreover, there were not many people in the neighborhood, so it was still convenient to talk.
Dong Xuebing looked at Su Yan. "I am here on the way and got lost. Also, I want to ask you about our County's situation."
Su Yan's expression turned solemn and he lowered his voice. "You mean at the leadership level?"
"Yes." Dong Xuebing replied. "Can you help me to sort out my relationship with the leaders?"
Su Yan said cautiously, "I wasn't at a high level in the past, so I didn't know much. It's just some things that everyone knows, and some of them might not be accurate."
Dong Xuebing replied. "It's fine. Just tell me what you know."
Dong Xuebing will be starting work tomorrow and will have to settle some work issues. Dong Xuebing naturally needs to understand the situation here. He had rejected many social engagements and did not ask Meng Hanmei, who was the first to approach him. This was because this was the first time Dong Xuebing met them and they were not familiar with each other. Their working relationship was not that close, so Dong Xuebing did not ask any of them. But Su Yan was different. He was his secretary, and Dong Xuebing had interacted with him a while ago. Even if Dong Xuebing did not pass by his house tonight, he would still call him over tomorrow morning. He had been staying in Jiaolin County for the past few days and had a rough understanding of the County's situation. Dong Xuebing was not clear about the factions within the County's leaders.
Su Yan sorted out his words, "What I know is the situation in the county before you came. At that time, the top leader was Li Guian, who has now been transferred to Jiaolin County's Party Committee. Secretary Li was the top leader of Jiaolin County at that time, but he didn't hold the position for many years. Overall, although he roughly controlled the situation in Jiaolin County, it wasn't that thorough. After all, County Head Zhang Dongfang is a local official and has a deep foundation in the local area. Our county's third in command, Deputy Secretary Wei Zhixuan, is also a veteran leader who has worked in Jiaolin County for more than 20 years and is also very close to County Head Zhang. Secretary Li can barely control the votes of the members of the Party Committee. In fact, it's really hard to say who's stronger and who's weaker.
Dong Xuebing nodded and asked. "Where is Mayor Zhang from?"
Su Yan paused for a second and replied. "He is from the City, and I heard he is very close with the City's Party Secretary."
Dong Xuebing looked at him. "What about the previous Secretary Li?"
"Secretary Li is from the Provincial Government, but I am not sure about the details." Su Yan replied honestly. "The political struggles between the Provincial Government and the City Government will sometimes affect our County."
Dong Xuebing nodded. "What about the rest?"
Su Yan said one by one, "County Party Committee Deputy Secretary Wei Zhixuan, Organization Department Head Han Wu, Executive Deputy County Head Xu Zhuang, and Standing Committee Deputy County Head Song Hefei. These are all people from County Head Zhang's faction. They have always been very supportive of County Head Zhang.
Four?
Including Zhang Dongfang, that's five?
Dong Xuebing asked. "What about the rest?"
Su Yan replied. "The rest are from Secretary Li's faction. Political and Legal Committee Secretary Chang Lin, Publicity Department Head Sun Zhangzhi, Commission for Discipline Inspection Secretary Wang Binhe, United Front Work Department Head Li Niu, and County's Party Committee Office Director Meng Hanmei. But now the old Party Secretary is transferred away, and I …"
There are a total of 11 Standing Committee members.
Li Guian has 6 people on his side?
Zhang Dongfang has 5 people?
This advantage is not too obvious.
That means Dong Xuebing will not be able to get the people on Zhang Dongfang's side, and Dong Xuebing is left with the rest of the Standing Committee members.
Dong Xuebing knew his future will not be easy. Zhang Dongfang has connections with the City's Party Secretary, but what about him? Dong Xuebing does not have any connections, and he is blacklisted by the Provincial and City Government leaders. The Xie family and the Fang family are not on good terms, and Dong Xuebing is also not on good terms with them. Now, Dong Xuebing is in the Fang family's territory, and they will not treat Dong Xuebing well. From the fact that the City had only sent an Executive Deputy Minister of the City's Organization Department to replace Dong Xuebing, Dong Xuebing can tell that the Provincial or City Government had already blacklisted Dong Xuebing. This is a signal and attitude. Many people in Jiaolin County can tell this, and it will be a hindrance to Dong Xuebing in the future. Dong Xuebing does not know how many of the remaining five Standing Committee members he can get. If he can't get them, or even if he can only get four of them, it will be hard for Dong Xuebing to implement his political ideas as he does not have enough votes.
In the past, Secretary Li Guian might not have a clear advantage, but he is still in control of the situation. If Dong Xuebing and himself have 5 votes in the Party Committee, he will be on par with Zhang Dongfang. If the last person is not neutral or abstains, Zhang Dongfang will have 6 votes. Dong Xuebing will be in a disadvantageous position as the Party Secretary. He will be in a disadvantageous position after being suppressed by the Second Leader. This is not what Dong Xuebing wants to see. That's why he wants to know more about this.
Dong Xuebing asked. "What are the personalities of the previous Standing Committee members? Tell me about them. "Dong Xuebing was already prepared.
Su Yan replied. "I don't know much. Then I will tell you what I have heard and seen."
Dong Xuebing nodded. The two of them had walked out of the estate and were waiting for a taxi by the roadside. Dong Xuebing listened to Su Yan talk.
5 minutes …
10 minutes …
There were two taxis passing by, but Dong Xuebing did not stop them. He listened attentively and even took out two cigarettes.
Commission for Discipline Inspection Secretary Wang Binhe is cautious?
Publicity Department Head Sun Zhangzhi is indecisive?
Dong Xuebing frowned as he listened to the personalities of the few County's Party Committee members that Dong Xuebing wants to get. This made him feel that his job is more difficult, and there are more uncertainties. While Dong Xuebing was listening to Su Yan, he was thinking about how to get the remaining County's Party Committee members to join him. He must make sure that nothing goes wrong. If not, he will be in a disadvantageous position the moment he takes over, and it will be a vicious cycle in the future. At that time, Zhang Dongfang will be in control of the situation, and Dong Xuebing will become a laughing stock. At that time, he might not even be able to stay in Jiaolin County when the ancient tomb is excavated. If a County's Party Secretary is suppressed by a Mayor forever, then he will be the head of the County's Party Committee. Also, the City and Provincial Government do not have a good impression of him and want him to leave. If that happens, it will give the City a reason to replace him. Dong Xuebing will not let this happen.
What is he here for?
He is here to fight for the position of Deputy Bureau Chief!
This is a rare opportunity for him to help the local people. It will be best if he can improve the local economy and development. That's why Dong Xuebing will not show mercy to anyone who tries to stop him.
Su Yan finished speaking.
There was also an empty taxi.
Dong Xuebing had heard everything, and Su Yan was not sure about the rest. He did not ask further and boarded the taxi. "Let's go back, Xiao Su."
Su Yan told the driver the address of the County's Party Committee Quarters and stood there. He watched the taxi drive away before returning home.
In the car.
Dong Xuebing's brain was working fast.
In the past, Dong Xuebing did not care about other people's attitude. After all, his rank is higher. But this time, he is the County's Party Committee Chief. He cannot do this again!
