They ate and chatted with Chen Hainan until seven o 'clock. Then they changed to the hotel's tea room and chatted. They didn't leave until eight o' clock.
While Chen Xing and Chen Hainan were eating, Song Zhi wasn't alone. Although she only had Zhao Ziqing as a friend in Nanzhou, Zhao Ziqing and her father were both very warm to her. Song Zhi was left on the side of the road by Chen Xing and only called Zhao Ziqing. Zhao Ziqing hadn't arrived yet, but her father, Zhao Kai, had already driven over to pick her up. His attitude towards her was very warm. Even the usually crazy Song Zhi couldn't resist Zhao Kai's enthusiasm.
Uncle Zhao, I'll do it myself, I'll do it myself. At the dining table, Zhao Kai kept putting food into Song Zhi's bowl. Song Zhi smiled bitterly.
Little Song, you're friends with my family's Ziqing, so I'll also treat you as a junior. Don't be polite with me, just treat us as family. Zhao Kai said to Song Zhi with a smile, "Don't stay in the hotel tonight, just stay at my house. My house is more cozy. Besides, my house still has a spare room. If you want to sleep with Ziqing, that's fine too. You girls have a lot to talk about.
That's right, Song Zhi, sleep at my house tonight. Sleep with me. We haven't had a good chat in a while. " Zhao Ziqing also smiled and invited her. Girls always had endless things to talk about when they were together.
Okay, I'll snatch the quilt with you tonight. I'm very good at snatching quilts when I sleep. Song Zhi smiled, her eyes inadvertently glancing in Zhao Kai's direction. She wasn't surprised that Zhao Ziqing was so warm towards her. They were colleagues and good friends, but Zhao Ziqing's father was also so warm towards her. In her heart, Song Zhi felt like a weasel giving a New Year's greetings to a chicken.
Little Song, did you contact Mayor Chen when you came to Nanzhou? As expected, as soon as Song Zhi had that thought, Zhao Kai asked about it. His enthusiasm towards Song Zhi was entirely due to the relationship between Song Zhi and Chen Xing. If it wasn't for this reason, Zhao Kai wouldn't have cared what kind of friends his daughter had made, let alone be so concerned about her.
Yes, Uncle Zhao, what's wrong? Song Zhi looked at Zhao Kai and became vigilant. She liked to cause trouble for Chen Xing, but she would not foolishly help others to cause trouble for Chen Xing.
You've contacted Mayor Chen. Why don't you ask Mayor Chen to come out with us? We can also take advantage of you and chat with Mayor Chen. Zhao Kai smiled.
Oh, I see. It's a pity that Mayor Chen isn't free. I originally wanted to ask him to treat me to dinner tonight, but I was kicked out of the car halfway, so it's impossible for him to be free tonight. Hearing this, Song Zhi's vigilance was put down. If Zhao Kai wanted to establish a relationship with Chen Xing through her, it would depend on Zhao Kai's own ability.
Mayor Chen isn't free tonight? Zhao Kai was stunned for a moment and looked disappointed. Tomorrow was the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee meeting. At that time, the appointment and removal of cadres would definitely be discussed. Zhao Kai was anxious about whether the position of director would fall on him. At this critical moment, if he could contact Chen Xing privately through a third party and sound out Chen Xing's tone, Zhao Kai would feel much more at ease. Now, however, his heart was in turmoil. He didn't know whether the throne of director would fall on him in the end. Because of this, Zhao Kai had been suffering from insomnia recently. He had lost a lot of weight. Usually, it didn't work to lose weight, but this time, he didn't need to lose weight.
Uncle Zhao, if you want to see Mayor Chen, you can call him yourself. Song Zhi teased.
Xiao Song, your Uncle Zhao's words don't work in front of Mayor Chen. He is not as influential as you. I can't ask him to come out even if I want to. Zhao Kai smiled. He was not afraid to tell the truth in front of Song Zhi.
Uncle Zhao, I think Mayor Chen really isn't free tonight. You should do it another day. Mayor Chen will definitely be free.
I can only do it another day. Zhao Kai frowned. Tomorrow's Standing Committee meeting was crucial. He wanted to establish a relationship with Chen Xing before that. If he couldn't do it tonight, Zhao Kai's heart would be half cold.
"Dad, don't worry about it. Just treat it with a normal heart." Zhao Ziqing looked at her father's frowning face and sighed helplessly. There were good and bad things about being an official. Others envied her father for being the Deputy Director of the Traffic Bureau, but they didn't know that being an official also had a lot of unhappy times. Some of the bitterness was not something that outsiders could understand.
But then again, the disadvantages of being an official could only be regarded as a small matter. Having power was better than anything else. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people scrambling to squeeze into this system. They even broke their heads and sharpened their brains to get a higher position. It was nothing more than seeing the benefits of having power in their hands. It was not an exaggeration to say that when a man achieved the Dao, even his chickens and dogs would ascend to heaven. This time, her father was worried about the position of the Director. There were rumors in the Municipal Government that Chen Xing nominated her father to be the Director, but her father was still worried about this and that. He even had the idea of letting her spend the night with Chen Xing.
Although her father was too embarrassed to say such words too directly, the hearts of a father and daughter were connected. How could Zhao Ziqing not see the meaning of her father's occasional suggestive words in front of her? To be honest, Zhao Ziqing also felt a little sad in her heart. She was a biological daughter, and her father's official position was not as important as her father's. It was not that her father didn't love her, but compared with the official position, her father had become so strange to her. Zhao Ziqing felt the hardship of living in a besieged city. She wanted to break away from this besieged city. After graduation, she would rather choose to be a stewardess than follow her father's arrangement to work in a unit.
But in the end, Zhao Ziqing still felt that she was living in the circle her father drew for her. This made Zhao Ziqing extremely contradictory and painful. If she could, she would rather be born in an ordinary family. Unfortunately, who her parents were was not something she could choose.
Zhao Ziqing actually knew that her contradictions and pain were completely caused by herself. She could completely refuse her father's hint. Zhao Ziqing believed that her father would not force her, let alone say his intentions clearly. But on one hand, Zhao Ziqing wanted to do it according to her own wishes. On the other hand, she wanted to follow her father's wishes and let her father get the position of the bureau chief. But in this world, how could there be so many things that could have the best of both worlds?
Song Zhi, let me ask you something in private. You must tell me the truth. Zhao Ziqing suddenly pulled Song Zhi aside and whispered to him.
What's the matter? If I knew, would I hide it from you? Song Zhi said with a smile. Don't look at how fierce she was when she flipped out with men. To her sister-like friends, Song Zhi was also very good. She had the loyal side of men in her bones.
Song Zhi, do you think that Mayor Chen likes women? I heard that he likes women very much? Zhao Ziqing asked truthfully.
Song Zhi looked at Zhao Ziqing in a daze. This question was far beyond her expectations. Ziqing, why would you ask this?
No, it's nothing. Didn't I hear it from someone else? Right now, there's a lot of rumors circulating in Nanzhou's officialdom about Mayor Chen's lust for women. I'm also curious. Seeing that you're so familiar with him, I asked you in private. Zhao Ziqing said with some embarrassment. After she finished speaking, she looked at Song Zhi in front of her. Zhao Ziqing suddenly froze. Chen Xing likes women. Song Zhi's relationship with Chen Xing was so good. Could it be that Song Zhi and Chen Xing also had that kind of … shameful relationship? Thinking of this possibility, Zhao Ziqing wanted to slap herself. Why did she ask Song Zhi about this for no reason? If Chen Xing was really that kind of person, at worst, for the sake of her father's official hat, she would sleep with Chen Xing for a night.
Ziqing, where did you hear those nonsensical rumors? Someone must be deliberately slandering you. Anyway, I've never heard of such a thing. Song Zhi said unhappily. She couldn't bear to hear people say things that were unfavorable to Chen Xing. However, Song Zhi didn't know that in Zhao Ziqing's eyes, her reaction had become a blatant lie. Just now, she was just making wild guesses. Now, she felt that it was more likely.
En, it should be someone deliberately slandering me. I don't think Mayor Chen is that kind of person. Song Zhi, let's not talk about this anymore. Zhao Ziqing felt that her guess was right. Now, she didn't dare to say this to Song Zhi, for fear that it would be passed to Chen Xing.
Zhao Ziqing was thinking about her own thoughts. No wonder Song Zhi and Chen Xing's relationship was so good. It was probably really that kind of relationship with Chen Xing. Why didn't she think about it before? At this moment, when Song Zhi suddenly heard such a question from Zhao Ziqing, she suddenly remembered that she held Chen Xing's arm in front of her chest. That was to put on a good show for Zheng Jinshi. At that time, it was just a casual action, so she didn't think much about it. Now that she thought about it, Song Zhi slightly blushed.
Song Zhi's expression fell into Zhao Ziqing's eyes. Zhao Ziqing immediately muttered, "It seems like I really guessed right."
After Chen Xing left the hotel, he didn't go anywhere else. Instead, he went to Jiang Wan's single apartment. In order to give Jiang Wan a surprise, Chen Xing didn't call Jiang Wan in advance. After arriving, Chen Xing remembered that he didn't know whether Jiang Wan had returned or not. Usually, Jiang Wan would stay in the restaurant until after nine o 'clock. Although her restaurant had specialized management staff, Jiang Wan liked to stay there when she had nothing to do. After all, she had nothing to do. In Nanzhou, other than He Li and Chu Rong, she didn't have any friends. Staying alone in the apartment was better than staying in the restaurant.
He raised his hand and knocked on the door. Chen Xing wasn't sure whether Jiang Wan had returned or not. He thought that if Jiang Wan hadn't returned, he would have to return to the restaurant.
It was rare that Chen Xing didn't make a wasted trip. When he saw the peephole on the door move, he knew that Jiang Wan was at home. Soon, the door opened. Jiang Wan looked at Chen Xing with surprise. Looking left and right, Jiang Wan quickly pulled Chen Xing in and closed the door.
I say, why are you acting like a thief? Chen Xing looked at Jiang Wan's actions with amusement.
No, I'm just afraid that someone will know you and it won't be good for you. Jiang Wan said with a smile.
You silly woman, always thinking of others. Chen Xing smiled and shook his head. He affectionately pulled Jiang Wan into his arms.
You're the only man I have. If I don't think of you, who will? I don't want you to be affected by any negative news, which will affect your money and family. Jiang Wan leaned in Chen Xing's arms happily. As long as she had a place in Chen Xing's heart and she could occasionally get along with Chen Xing like this, she would feel very happy. In the past 30 years of her life, Jiang Wan felt that God was unfair to her. But now, Jiang Wan felt that God was fair.
"Has your wife left?" Jiang Wan asked.
"Yes, she left this morning." Chen Xing replied in a low voice.
"Did you spend time with her a few days ago? Don't leave her in the cold. "
"I'll leave anyone out, but not her. In my heart, she is the most important. Of course, now, you are also one of them." Chen Xing said with a smile. Jiang Wan was such a person. She always liked to think of others. Perhaps it was because of this that he couldn't let go of Jiang Wan unconsciously. Jiang Wan occupied a more important place in his heart than He Li and Chu Rong.
"Really?" Jiang Wan still had the same expression of inexplicable surprise. It seemed that as long as Chen Xing said something nice to her, Jiang Wan would be happy for several days.
"Of course it's true, you silly woman." Chen Xing smiled and scratched Jiang Wan's nose. Jiang Wan's nose was not particularly beautiful, but it was so harmonious with her facial features. Her whole face was flawless.
"Chen Xing, then … then who is more important, me or He Li or Sister Chu?" Jiang Wan asked boldly. Her voice was almost inaudible. If it weren't for the fact that Chen Xing and Jiang Wan were hugging each other, he probably wouldn't have heard what Jiang Wan said.
"Women like to compare with each other. Jiang Wan, I thought you would be an exception." Chen Xing smiled and shook his head.
"No, Chen Xing, I just asked casually. Don't be angry. In fact, no matter what your answer is, I won't care." Jiang Wan thought that Chen Xing was angry and raised her head anxiously.
"You are so cute that I want to love you all the time." Seeing Jiang Wan's look, Chen Xing picked her up without saying anything.
"Chen Xing, don't. I just came back for a while and haven't taken a bath yet. I stay in the restaurant all day and I stink." Seeing Chen Xing walking inside, Jiang Wan knew what Chen Xing was going to do. She said hurriedly and struggled to get down from him.
"Haven't taken a bath yet? That's good. I want to take a bath too. " Chen Xing smirked as he walked towards the bathroom.
"Chen Xing, I … I'm not used to it. I'll take a bath first, and then you can take a bath, okay?" Hearing that Chen Xing wanted to take a bath with her, Jiang Wan blushed from her neck to her ears. Although she said so, Jiang Wan didn't really want to resist. She had given her most precious thing to Chen Xing. What was there to be embarrassed about? Moreover, Jiang Wan didn't want to refuse Chen Xing. As long as Chen Xing asked her to do it, she was willing to do it.
They had already done it. What was there to be embarrassed about? Chen Xing smiled.
…
On the tenth day of the first month, the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee of Nanzhou City was held as scheduled. Ge Jian-ming, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee; Chen Xing, Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee and Mayor; Shen Lingyue, Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee; Duan Zhaohua, Minister of Organization of the Municipal Party Committee; Tang Chengjie, Secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection; Shao Huadong, Deputy Mayor; Yang Pingping, Minister of Publicity of the Municipal Party Committee; Liao Donghua, Secretary of the Municipal Political and Legal Committee; Xu Feng, Deputy Commander of the Municipal Military Division; Jia Zhengde, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee; Zhao Xin, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee; and other members of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee attended the meeting.
Today's meeting mainly focused on some important issues of the city's economic work and passed some important matters through voting. The appointment of personnel was naturally put at the end of the discussion and became the focus of everyone's attention.
Chen Xing proposed that Zhao Kai take over as the Director of the Traffic Bureau. Normally, the appointment of personnel in government departments was made by the National People's Congress, but as everyone knew, the Party Committee was in charge of everything. The appointment of the National People's Congress was nothing more than fulfilling the relevant legal procedures. The real personnel discussion was still decided at the Party Committee meeting. Ge Jian-ming, as the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, undoubtedly had the greatest say. Normally, a few of the main leaders would communicate in advance before the Standing Committee meeting and reach an agreement. After that, the Standing Committee would just go through the motions. It was rare to have a disagreement at the Standing Committee and directly start a debate. But today, just because of a few personnel appointment issues, the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee of Nanzhou City had a disagreement.
Ge Jian-ming didn't approve of Zhao Kai as the Director of the Traffic Bureau. Instead, he proposed that Zhang Yueming, the Vice Minister of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee and the Director of the Municipal Party Committee's grassroots office, take the post. The Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee and the Mayor had different opinions, and it happened directly at the Standing Committee meeting. It really made the other members of the Standing Committee secretly shocked.
In fact, it wasn't that Chen Xing and Ge Jian-ming hadn't talked about the candidate for the Director of the Traffic Bureau before, but they couldn't reach an agreement after several discussions. Apart from being annoyed by Chen Xing's insubordination, Chen Xing didn't argue with Chen Xing anymore. He smiled and said that it would be fine to bring it to the Standing Committee and let everyone vote together, so that they wouldn't have a conflict over this issue.
Ge Jian-ming had an absolute advantage in the votes on the Standing Committee. As long as he didn't agree, Chen Xing couldn't appoint anyone. This was clear to Chen Xing. There were several personnel appointments discussed today. In addition to the Director of the Traffic Bureau and the Director of the Public Security Bureau, there were also personnel appointments for other counties, cities, and departments. Chen Xing knew that he couldn't compete with Ge Jian-ming on the Standing Committee, so he also had a bottom line for the personnel appointments of the Traffic Bureau and the Public Security Bureau. He had to fight for one of the two positions, and the best result would be to win the position of the Director of the Public Security Bureau. After all, Lu Ming was his old subordinate from Hai City, so Chen Xing definitely had to choose to help Lu Ming get the position first.
As for Zhao Kai, Chen Xing could only try his best. After all, Ge Jian-ming didn't make any concessions when communicating with him in private. Chen Xing was quite helpless about this. Ge Jian-ming indeed had no reason to accommodate him. Chen Xing and Ge Jian-ming already had some unknown conflicts, and Ge Jian-ming was in charge of the personnel appointments of the Party Committee. Why should Ge Jian-ming follow his wishes?
Chen Xing also made preparations today. He fought for one of the two. As for the others, Chen Xing could go along with Ge Jian-ming's wishes. However, if Ge Jian-ming really went too far and made all his proposals fall through, it would mean that the conflicts between them would become public, and there would be no room for negotiation. If Ge Jian-ming did what he did, Chen Xing dared to do what he wanted. Ge Jian-ming, who was a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, couldn't scare him.
However, there was one thing that Chen Xing couldn't figure out. Except for the director of the Traffic Bureau, Ge Jian-ming didn't nominate any other personnel appointments, which puzzled Chen Xing. However, if he couldn't figure it out, Chen Xing didn't want to think too much about it. Since Ge Jian-ming only nominated the director of the Traffic Bureau, he didn't mind making concessions on this appointment, as long as Lu Ming could get the position.
Chen Xing glanced at the members of the Standing Committee and sighed secretly. Although he was strong in government affairs and dared to hit back Ge Jian-ming's hand, when it came to the decisive Standing Committee, he lost to Ge Jian-ming not just by a little bit. In the Standing Committee, he knew that only Shao Huadong would support him. As for Ge Jian-ming, he obviously had more than two times more votes than him.
He didn't know what Shen Lingyue's attitude was. Chen Xing glanced at Shen Lingyue. He knew that Shen Lingyue was not on the same side as Ge Jian-ming. Shen Lingyue represented the local forces. If Shen Lingyue voted for him, Ge Jian-ming might not have an advantage. However, Chen Xing didn't have much contact with Shen Lingyue. Chen Xing knew clearly that the possibility of Shen Lingyue supporting him was not high. This old fox still didn't know what he was planning.
Mayor, it seemed difficult to pass. Shao Huadong communicated with Chen Xing in a low voice. He was also paying attention to other people at the scene. He didn't have much hope for Chen Xing's proposal to appoint Zhao Kai as the director of the Traffic Bureau. Now, he said this deliberately to save face for Chen Xing. Otherwise, he would have said that Chen Xing's proposal was definitely hopeless. Shen Lingyue looked calm and relaxed, as if he was watching a show, while Ge Jian-ming had a well-thought-out plan. Shao Huadong was not optimistic about Chen Xing's proposal at all. Chen Xing could wrestle with Ge Jian-ming in government affairs, but when it came to personnel appointments, Ge Jian-ming, who had the right to speak, was not someone that Chen Xing could compete with.
Do your best and leave the rest to fate. Chen Xing said calmly, but he was really helpless. His bottom line was to fight for Lu Ming's position. Zhao Kai could be given up as the director of the Traffic Bureau, but Chen Xing had to fight for the appointment of Lu Ming as the director of the Public Security Bureau. Ge Jian-ming didn't nominate anyone, so he hoped that Lu Ming wouldn't go too far.
Comrade Chen Xing proposed that Zhao Kai be the director of the Traffic Bureau. If no one had anything to say, then let's vote by a show of hands. Ge Jianming, who had always been calm and collected, said as if he was in control of the situation.
As Ge Jianming's voice fell, the people present quietly looked at the others. Some of them were holding the idea of Chen Xing making fun of him, while others were holding the attitude of watching a show. The fiercer the Mayor and the Municipal Party Secretary were, the better it was for some people. At this moment, Shen Lingyue squinted his eyes, and his knuckles gently tapped on the table from time to time. No one knew what the eyes hiding behind his back were calculating.
Chen Xing was the first to raise his hand, followed by Shao Huadong. Both of them were on the Municipal Government's side, so there was no doubt that they were on the same side. In fact, the Municipal Government also had a deputy mayor of the Standing Committee, Jia Zhengde, who had been transferred from the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. However, Jia Zhengde obviously couldn't be counted on. Chen Xing glanced at Jia Zhengde and saw that Jia Zhengde was indifferent. Chen Xing wasn't surprised at this. It would be strange if Jia Zhengde would raise his hand. However, even if he knew this result, Chen Xing still felt a little angry. Ge Jian-ming had planted such a nail in the wall, and Chen Xing would pull it out sooner or later.
Except for Chen Xing and Shao Huadong who raised their hands, none of the other nine people raised their hands. However, soon, the commander of the Municipal Military Division, Xu Feng, glanced at Chen Xing and raised his hand unexpectedly. Among the eleven Standing Committee members, Chen Xing had three votes, but only three votes.
Shen Lingyue's mouth curved slightly. Just as Shen Lingyue threw a glance at Yang Pingping, the head of the Publicity Department, something happened that made Shen Lingyue dumbfounded. Duan Zhaohua, the head of the Organization Department, raised his hand, followed by Tang Chengjie, the secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection. Finally, Liao Donghua, the secretary of the Municipal Political and Legal Committee, raised his hand. The number of votes in favor of Chen Xing suddenly reached six, more than half. This meant that Chen Xing's proposal to appoint Zhao Kai as the Director of the Traffic Bureau had passed the vote.
Shen Lingyue looked at the scene in a daze. He glanced at Ge Jian-ming, who was beside him. Even the experienced and astute Shen Lingyue couldn't help but frown at this moment.
Not only Shen Lingyue, but even Chen Xing himself was dumbfounded. What was going on? He was pleasantly surprised that the commander of the Military Division, Xu Feng, would support him. After all, he was a true neutral person. However, why did Duan Zhaohua, Tang Chengjie, and Liao Donghua raise their hands? Except for Liao Donghua, Duan Zhaohua and Tang Chengjie were all hardcore supporters of Ge Jian-ming. Ge Jian-ming held the power of the organization. The head of the Organization Department could only be someone he trusted. Duan Zhaohua had always followed Ge Jian-ming's lead. Everyone knew this. What was going on today? Ge Jian-ming was obviously against him. Was Duan Zhaohua trying to slap Ge Jian-ming in the face by doing this? Moreover, Liao Donghua didn't have much contact with him. Why would he support him? Did he suddenly do this out of kindness? Or did he have other intentions?
Chen Xing looked in the direction of Ge Jian-ming. Ge Jian-ming didn't seem surprised by the result at all. He didn't even look angry. He just said calmly, "Since more than half of the Standing Committee supported Chen Xing's proposal, Zhao Kai as the head of the Traffic Bureau will be approved. Next, let's discuss the candidate for the head of the Public Security Bureau. The candidate proposed by Chen Xing is the current Deputy Director, Lu Ming. I suddenly have a candidate here. The position of the head of the Municipal Bureau will be held by Liao Donghua. What do you all think?"
Damn it, so they were waiting here. When Chen Xing heard the first part of Ge Jian-ming's words, he thought that Ge Jian-ming was just pretending to be calm. However, when he heard the second part, Chen Xing realized that Ge Jian-ming was giving him a sweet date and then a big stick. Just now, the head of the Organization Department, Duan Zhaohua and Tang Chengjie, raised their hands. It was definitely Ge Jian-ming's instruction. Otherwise, they wouldn't have dared to slap Ge Jian-ming in the face in the Standing Committee. How could it be so easy to slap the face of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee?
Obviously, Ge Jian-ming didn't care much about the vacancy of the Director of the Traffic Bureau, so he simply gave it to him. His real purpose was in the back. At the beginning, Ge Jian-ming didn't nominate a candidate for the Director of the Public Security Bureau. Chen Xing thought that Ge Jian-ming didn't have a candidate, but it turned out that Ge Jian-ming was just trying to confuse him. Liao Donghua might have been in cahoots with Ge Jian-ming. Otherwise, he wouldn't have raised his hand to support Liao Donghua just now. That must be the result of collusion between Liao Donghua and Ge Jian-ming.
Chen Xing's guess was right. Ge Jian-ming proposed that Liao Donghua should be the Director of the Public Security Bureau. Ge Jian-ming was the first to raise his hand, followed by Duan Zhaohua and Tang Chengjie. Jia Zhengde was also the first to raise his hand. Zhao Xin, who had just been appointed as the Secretary General of the Municipal Party Committee, was not far behind. He also raised his hand a long time ago. If it weren't for the fact that Liao Donghua was too embarrassed to raise his hand, it would have been six votes already.
Xu Feng, the commander of the military division, did not have any inclination towards any faction. The military and the local government were two systems that did not interfere with each other. As the commander of the military division, he was also a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, which was more symbolic than practical. Usually, when he attended the Standing Committee meeting, Xu Feng raised his hand again. However, he did not raise his hand as quickly as he did when he supported Chen Xing just now.
There were six votes on the spot, which meant that there was no doubt that Liao Donghua would be the Director of the Municipal Bureau. In fact, after Ge Jian-ming made such a proposal, it was impossible for Chen Xing to nominate Lu Ming as the Director. Even if he wanted to support Lu Ming, he had to consider the reality that Liao Donghua, the Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, was more qualified than anyone else to be the Director. However, when Liao Donghua was transferred to Nanzhou, he did not hold the position as the Director. After that, even though the Municipal Bureau was wiped out, a deputy director from the Provincial Department was still the one who held the position as the Director for the time being. Liao Donghua, the Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, was still excluded. This made Chen Xing subconsciously ignore Liao Donghua, because he could see that Ge Jian-ming also did not want Liao Donghua to hold the position as the Director. Therefore, he would rather leave Liao Donghua alone than let him do what he wanted. However, he did not expect that Ge Jian-ming would make such a move this time. Chen Xing was caught off guard.
Liao Donghua had enough votes, but he still glanced at Chen Xing, as if to say that he supported Chen Xing just now. Chen Xing did not raise his hand at this time.
Being stared at by Liao Donghua, Chen Xing raised his eyebrows and raised his hand as well. Anyway, he did not need more votes. Since Liao Donghua looked at him like this, he might as well go along with him. After all, he could not change the result.
Although he raised his hand, Chen Xing looked at Ge Jian-ming seriously. Ge Jian-ming gave him a vivid lesson today. In politics, if you can see it, it is no longer a trick. Only when you can't think of it, it is a real trick. Even Chen Xing had to admire Ge Jian-ming at this time. After all, a person like Ge Jian-ming, who had been immersed in officialdom for more than 20 years, was not someone he could compare with.
Chen Xing's face was not looking good, and Shen Lingyue, the Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, was not much better. Although there was still a smile on his face, compared to the leisurely attitude of watching the drama just now, the smile on Shen Lingyue's face was forced. Every time he had to go against Ge Jian-ming, it seemed that he was always one step behind, which frustrated Shen Lingyue. However, was the gap between him and Ge Jian-ming really so big?
