After socializing with Zheng Zhongqiang until eight o 'clock, Chen Xing returned to the hotel. After washing up, Chen Xing sat in the study. The study was close to the small park outside. It had a wide view and could clearly see the night view of Jiang City. The only drawback was that it was a little short and could not overlook the whole city. Even so, the location of the study was excellent.
In fact, the suite that Chen Xing lived in was one of the best suites in Jiang City. Suites like this were usually used to receive provincial and ministerial leaders. Since Chen Xing had been living in Jiang City Hotel since he took office, this suite was almost exclusive to him.
Sitting in the study, Chen Xing was not sleepy at all because it was still early. He casually flipped through a book. Chen Xing was a little absent-minded. From time to time, he picked up his phone and looked at it. Occasionally, Chen Xing clicked on the address book. His eyes stopped on Zeng Jing's number and he frowned slightly. Obviously, he was thinking about whether he should call Zeng Jing.
Time passed by. In the end, Chen Xing did not call Zeng Jing. Lin Mao's murder case had just happened. Chen Xing guessed that Zeng Jing must be very busy these few days. It was better not to disturb him. He would call him after a few days.
Without calling Zeng Jing, Chen Xing read until past ten o 'clock and went to bed early.
The night passed uneventfully. The next day, Chen Xing got up as usual. As the mayor, his daily work was similar yet repetitive. He was either on the way to meetings and surveys, or on the way to review documents and participate in activities.
Time passed day by day. The scorching July passed in the blink of an eye. August came, and it was still very hot. Rivertown had a subtropical climate. Summers were exceptionally hot, especially in recent years. As if affected by global warming, the summer temperature record in Rivertown was getting higher and higher. Every year, there would be a new high temperature record. Every year, it got hotter and hotter.
However, no matter how hot the weather was, the ones who had to work hard were the workers who had to work outdoors or the salespeople who had to run on the streets all day long. As for the leaders, no matter how hot the weather was, they wouldn't be affected by it. However, these days, some people in the political circle of Jiangcheng were like the scorching hot weather. The reason was none other than Fu Jianjia being transferred away.
The news of Fu Jianjia's transfer slowly spread in early August. By mid-August, the exact news came down from the top. Fu Jianjia's transfer notice was also officially announced through official channels. Fu Jianjia, who had been the secretary of Jiang City for five years, finally ended his term in Jiang City. On this day, he was only ten days away from completing his five-year term.
Fu Jianjia left. To be exact, he was promoted. Although he was still a deputy provincial leader, it was a small step forward. He was the top leader of Jiang City and also the Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee. This time, he was transferred to an important province in the central region to be the Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee. He was the third most important person in the province. Compared to his position in Jiang City, the significance of this was completely different. There were also rumors that Fu Jianjia was transferred to prepare to take over the position of the top leader of the Provincial government. That was because the top leader of the provincial government still had one more year before he would retire.
Regardless of whether Fu Jianjia's transfer was to prepare for a further promotion, it had nothing to do with the people in Jiang City or the province. Everyone was more concerned about who would take over the position after Fu Jianjia was transferred. This was the position of the top leader of the provincial capital. In addition, according to the past practice of the province, the top leader of Jiang City would also be the Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee. Everyone knew how important this position was in the province.
Since such an important position was vacant, those who had hope to compete for it naturally became excited.
In fact, there was a gap of more than ten days between the news of Fu Jianjia's transfer to the official announcement of Fu Jianjia's transfer. During these ten days, many people had already started to move. During this period of time, Jiang City was extremely lively.
As the mayor, Chen Xing could be said to be a silent bystander to the current situation. He watched the performance of others. In his heart, he did not think of competing with others because it was too unrealistic. Firstly, he was too young. Secondly, he had only been transferred to Jiang City as the mayor for a year. If he wanted to compete for Fu Jianjia's position, he still had a long way to go.
In response to this matter, Chen Xing also talked to his father-in-law, Zhang Guohua, on the phone. However, Chen Xing did not inquire about the news from his father-in-law early. Instead, he waited until the official announcement of Fu Jianjia's transfer before calling his father-in-law. It was really hard for him to be so calm this time.
After the conversation between the father-in-law and son-in-law, there was no doubt that Zhang Guohua also thought that there was no need for Chen Xing to compete for it now. This was also the reason why he had never taken the initiative to contact Chen Xing before. This time, Chen Xing was able to look at this matter so calmly, which made Zhang Guohua feel a little gratified. He felt that Chen Xing had become a little more mature this time.
On the phone, Zhang Guohua also revealed to Chen Xing that on the side of the Central Government, there were also a few qualified and qualified successors in Jianghai Province. This time, the competition was quite fierce. Whether to parachute a successor from a ministry or choose a successor from Jianghai Province, the Central Organization Department still had not made a decision.
Hearing the news revealed by his father-in-law, Chen Xing could only smile bitterly. Fortunately, he did not have any thoughts about it. Otherwise, when he heard this news, he would really not be able to sleep.
However, it was precisely because he did not compete that Chen Xing was very open-minded. He was also very calm. When it was time to eat, when it was time to sleep, when it was time to work. Chen Xing's life went on in an orderly manner. It was not affected by Fu Jianjia's transfer. Before Fu Jianjia left, Chen Xing and Fu Jianjia had a meal together, which could be regarded as his personal farewell to Fu Jianjia.
As for the farewell banquet held by the city for Fu Jianjia, the main leaders of the four departments in the city attended, which was another matter.
