In the VIP lounge of the airport, Chen Xing looked at the time from time to time. The Civilized City Assessment Team of the Central Civilization Office should have arrived by now, but Chen Xing had not seen them yet. He had called them earlier, but no one picked up. This made Chen Xing very confused. Chen Xing instructed Xiao Yuanqing to go to the airport and check if the Assessment Team had arrived on the scheduled flight.
About seven or eight minutes later, Xiao Yuanqing jogged in with a frown. Mayor, I've checked. The people from the evaluation team came in the same shift, and they seem to have been picked up by someone else.
Picked up by someone? When Chen Xing heard this answer, he was as surprised as he could be. The Assessment Team had arrived in Nanzhou. As the mayor, he had come to pick them up on behalf of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government. Who dared to pick them up before him? Moreover, the city had not arranged for anyone else to pick them up. Now that Xiao Yuanqing told him that the evaluation team might have been picked up by someone else, Chen Xing's shock could be imagined. In fact, he couldn't even believe it. He looked at Xiao Yuanqing suspiciously. Yuanqing, are you sure you're not mistaken?
Mayor, I have checked the internal surveillance of the airport and asked the management of the airport. They said that before we arrived, a few leaders of Xingan City had just picked up a group of people from the capital. Xiao Yuanqing said truthfully.
Xingan City again. Chen Xing's eyes widened. The sudden burst of anger shocked Xiao Yuanqing, who did not know what was going on. He did not know that his own leader did not see eye to eye with the new Executive Deputy Mayor of Xingan City.
Mayor, what's wrong? Xiao Yuanqing asked Chen Xing carefully.
Nothing. Let's go back. Chen Xing turned around and walked out. The gloomy expression on his face fully explained Chen Xing's current mood. The Assessment Team did not come on the scheduled flight. At this time, they could not even get through on the phone. But the result he got was that Xingan City had picked them up. The meaning of this could not be clearer.
He had forgotten that Xing 'an City was also applying to be a civilized city. However, Wang Zheng's actions were too shameless, coming to Nanzhou to intercept people. Chen Xing cursed Wang Zheng in his heart. Regardless of whether Wang Zheng had brought people to pick them up or not, Chen Xing would put the blame on Wang Zheng. This was because other than Wang Zheng, Chen Xing didn't think that other people in Xing 'an City would do this. Even if they dared to do this, it would depend on whether the assessment team was willing to go to Xing' an City first. The assessment team had originally planned to come to Nanzhou first, so the itinerary that had already been set couldn't be changed at will. Even if the assessment team wanted to change the itinerary, they had to consider the feelings of Nanzhou City. If there wasn't a person with enough power, the assessment team couldn't suddenly change the itinerary. There was no doubt that Wang Zheng had this kind of power. He was a playboy from the capital, and with the help of his family's connections, he also had this kind of connections.
This is the first time that Xing 'an City is applying to be a civilized city. Nanzhou passed the selection three years ago. This time, it is a re-assessment and re-assessment. Since the Assessment Team has decided to come to Nanzhou first, why did they suddenly leave with the people of Xing' an City? Xiao Yuanqing muttered beside Chen Xing, full of confusion.
Yuanqing, call the Assessment Team at any time and get in touch with them as soon as possible. Chen Xing said in a low voice.
Just as Chen Xing left the airport in a bad mood, on the highway from Nanzhou to Xing 'an, Wang Zheng was happily chatting with Xia Zhengshu, the leader of the Civilized City Assessment Team. When they got excited, they would even laugh heartily. As a son of a high-ranking official in the capital, Wang Zheng had the typical flaws of a high-ranking official. He was arrogant and insufferably arrogant, even though he had toned down these traits since he started working in Xing' an City. After all, no matter how stupid Wang Zheng was, he knew that he was now working in the system. It was not as free as when he was working in a state-owned enterprise, where he could do whatever he wanted. Therefore, Wang Zheng had restrained himself appropriately. However, some things were engraved in his bones and could not be hidden. Take this moment, for example, when he was chatting with Xia Zhengshu, Wang Zheng would occasionally reveal a hint of arrogance. However, Xia Zhengshu knew of Wang Zheng's identity and did not dare to argue with Wang Zheng.
Xia Zhengshu was just an inspector in the Office of Civilization. Aside from the fact that the Office of Civilization did not have any real power, the position of an inspector was of little value. Civil servants were divided into leadership positions and non-leadership positions. An inspector was a non-leadership position. For example, the mayor of a prefecture-level city was at the level of a department head, and the inspector was also at the level of a department head. However, the mayor was a leadership position and held real power. As for an inspector, although he was also at the level of a department head, it was actually the same thing.
In other words, the Civilization Office could play a role in the Civilization City application and evaluation, and the evaluation team could only enjoy a little bit of glory at this time. To apply for a Civilization City application, one had to suck up to them. This was one of the few times that they could enjoy the taste of power.
Xia Zhengshu was "intercepted" by Wang Zheng. Before he left Beijing, Xia Zhengshu received a call from Wang Zheng. The two of them had no interaction at all before. After Wang Zheng introduced himself, Xia Zhengshu did not know Wang Zheng's identity at first. However, when Wang Zheng said that he knew a certain leader of the Civilization Office, and then requested the evaluation team to change their itinerary to Xing 'an first, Xia Zhengshu was surprised. Asking them to stand Nanzhou up and go to Xing' an first, wasn't this making things difficult for them? Moreover, Wang Zheng was only a local leader. What right did he have to ask them to do this?
However, Wang Zheng's tone was quite tough, especially when he deliberately emphasized that he knew a certain leader. Only then did Xia Zhengshu take it seriously. What happened next was very simple. Xia Zhengshu asked the higher-ups and was shocked. It turned out that Wang Zheng had such a powerful background, so Xia Zhengshu was "abducted" without informing Nanzhou.
He guessed that Chen Xing was cursing in anger at the airport now. Wang Zheng thought proudly. Xing 'an City was also applying for the Civilization City. This was not a last-minute proposal, but something that had been prepared before he came to Xing' an. It was just that because of his arrival, he was intercepted halfway. Wang Zheng imagined the look on Chen Xing's face after hearing the news, and his mood was particularly happy. Wang Zheng had already heard about what happened in Daxi City. People from Nanzhou secretly went to Daxi City to arrest someone. Wang Zheng thought it was Chen Xing, so he also went against him. However, the policeman who caused the accident had nothing to do with him, so it was fine if he was arrested. Wang Zheng was not angry at all. He would stand up for Chen Xing on this matter. However, if the person was really arrested, Wang Zheng would not be angry, because it had nothing to do with him.
Wang Zheng was in a good mood, but Chen Xing's mood was a bit bad. Thinking of Wang Zheng, who always competed with him, Chen Xing also had a headache. Chen Xing could imagine that there would be a lot of competitions between them in the future.
"Yuanqing, make an appointment with Xiao Longbo tonight." On the way back, after a moment of silence, Chen Xing suddenly said to Xiao Yuanqing beside him.
The mayor was afraid that Xiao Longbo would say he had something to do again. Xiao Yuanqing smiled bitterly. This was the third time that Chen Xing asked him to make an appointment with Xiao Longbo, the boss of the Provincial Refinery. Unfortunately, Xiao Longbo always said he was too busy. Xiao Yuanqing had a hunch that if he made another appointment this time, Xiao Longbo would probably say he was not free again. Obviously, Xiao Longbo did not want to meet Chen Xing. Others might have to respect Chen Xing, the mayor, but Xiao Longbo did not care too much. The Provincial Refinery was directly under the management of the Provincial government. Xiao Longbo had the confidence, which was also the reason why he dared to ignore Chen Xing's invitation.
"If he says he is not free again this time, let's go directly to his office." Chen Xing frowned. Last time, he had a bad relationship with the Provincial Refinery because of the problem of solving the pollution in the petrochemical industry area. Chen Xing knew that Xiao Longbo had a bad opinion of him. Even this time, the change of the petrochemical industry base might be fuelled by Xiao Longbo. Wang Zheng was a person who would try his best to curry favor when he found a loophole. Chen Xing felt that it was necessary for him to sit down with Xiao Longbo and solve the internal problems first. It would be easier to deal with external affairs. At least, Wang Zheng would not be able to make trouble for the Provincial Refinery.
Xiao Yuanqing nodded and didn't say anything else. He and Xiao Longbo had the same surname, Xiao. 500 years ago, they might have been a family, but now, they had nothing to do with each other. If the two of them were related, he wouldn't have had such a hard time in the past. Xiao Longbo had a lot of connections in the province.
After a long silence, Chen Xing said, "Xiao Li, don't drive back. Let's go to the First Hospital."
The mayor was going to visit the villagers of the cancer village again. Xiao Yuanqing laughed when he heard this and flattered him. It's really a blessing for the people of Nanzhou to have a mayor who cares about the people like you.
"Yuanqing, there is no need to flatter me in front of me." Chen Xing smiled and waved his hand. "Oh right, how is the progress of the resettlement houses for the villagers?"
"We have just finished the land acquisition and construction is about to start. The Anshun District Street Office is also very concerned about this matter and is very active in helping. The progress should be very fast." Xiao Yuanqing answered.
"That's good. The sooner we can complete the relocation of Big Head Village, the more we can answer to the villagers." Chen Xing nodded with satisfaction.
The two of them asked and answered. Time passed quickly. After the car entered the city, they soon arrived at the First Hospital.
The news of Chen Xing's visit to the cancer patients spread from the Inpatient Department to the hospital office. The director of the hospital office, Fang Wanhua, was stunned. She wondered if she should tell Deng Jinchun or pretend not to know. She was very unhappy with Deng Jinchun now. After thinking for a while, Fang Wanhua walked to the director's office. She just saw Deng Jinchun coming back. She thought that Deng Jinchun came back at the right time.
She knocked on the door gently. Fang Wanhua didn't push the door open like before. These days, Deng Jinchun was moody and often lost his temper for no reason. He was very irritable. Fang Wanhua didn't want to get on his bad side. Moreover, since the last time when Deng Jinchun wanted to have sex in the office, she rejected him and slapped him. Their relationship had been very subtle. Fang Wanhua now had Ceng Gaoqiang's protection, so she wasn't afraid of Deng Jinchun.
After Deng Jinchun shouted, he saw Fang Wanhua coming in. He stared at her from head to toe and squeezed a smile on his face. "Xiao Fang, what's the matter?"
"Mayor Chen came to our hospital and is now visiting cancer patients in the Oncology Center." Fang Wanhua replied expressionlessly. She cursed in her heart, "Old pervert. He's about to lose his position, but he's still in the mood to play with women."
"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Deng Jinchun jumped up from the chair and hurriedly walked out from behind the desk. He didn't have time to care about Fang Wanhua anymore and trotted out.
Fang Wanhua curled her lips. She was very ashamed of Deng Jinchun's slave mentality, but she had seen this kind of people and things many times, so there was nothing strange about it. It was just that she was a little unhappy with Deng Jinchun now.
"Ah!" Fang Wanhua exclaimed. Deng Jinchun, who was in front of her, suddenly stopped. Fang Wanhua couldn't stop in time and bumped into him.
"Hey, you're well nourished by Ceng Gaoqiang." Deng Jinchun turned around and glanced at Fang Wanhua. Just now, Fang Wanhua's chest had directly bumped into his back.
"Executive Deng, you're calling Mayor Zeng's name here. Aren't you afraid that I'll complain?" Fang Wanhua looked at Deng Jinchun coldly.
"Complain? Do you dare? Deng Jinchun smiled disdainfully. "Without me, can you climb up to Ceng Gaoqiang? Besides, do you think Ceng Gaoqiang dares to touch me? "Humph, I'm in a precarious situation now. If he doesn't protect me, he won't have an easy time either."
"Really?" "Since Executive Deng dared to say such harsh words, you should say it in front of Mayor Zeng. What's the point of saying it in front of me?" Fang Wanhua looked at Deng Jinchun mockingly.
"Things haven't reached the final step yet. I just don't want to shed all pretense of cordiality." Deng Jinchun snorted coldly with a resentful look on his face. Fang Wanhua's words had really poked the fig leaf on his face. However, he wasn't in the mood to argue with Fang Wanhua. He stared straight at Fang Wanhua and continued. "Xiao Fang, I know that you've been with Ceng Gaoqiang a lot recently. I won't say too much nonsense. Help me blow pillow talk. I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. If something happens to me, none of you will have a good life. I hope you won't take my words lightly."
"Executive Deng has a good relationship with Mayor Zeng. If you have something to say, you can just go and talk to him yourself." Fang Wanhua's face was cold.
"I've said what I need to say to him. I just don't want to say the harsh words out loud. I don't want to go to that step. Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked you to blow pillow talk." Deng Jinchun's face was ugly. "Okay, that's all I have to say. Whether you do it or not is up to you."
