On the 18th of March, Chen Xing came to Xing Hua County to attend the investment signing ceremony between Hai City Watson Pharmaceutical Group and Xing Hua County Government. The Municipal Government Secretary Jiang Bingxuan, Mayor Assistant Zhou Zhijin and other related personnel accompanied him. The signing ceremony was held in Xing Hua County's Shandu Hotel. Xing Hua County's Party Secretary Ye Kaiyun, County Magistrate Xu Qingnian, County Deputy Secretary Gao Yunsheng and other county party and government leaders were all present. This shows the importance that the county and government attach to Watson Pharmaceutical Group's investment in Xing Hua County. Even Mayor Chen Xing is here.
Along with Watson Pharmaceutical Group's General Manager Wu Zhongming was Sea City's richest man, Sha Yuanbao. Sha Yuanbao had been staying in Chongbei for the past few days, and today, Watson Pharmaceutical Group signed the contract with Xing Hua County Government. Sha Yuanbao was invited by his old friend Wu Zhongming to attend.
The signing ceremony was held by Xing Hua County's Deputy Magistrate Li Anjie and Watson Pharmaceutical Group's Executive Deputy General Manager Ceng Wanbo on behalf of the county government and Watson Pharmaceutical Group. Mayor Chen Xing was invited to give a speech.
After the signing ceremony, Xing Hua County's government hosted a banquet to entertain the guests. Chen Xing, Sha Yuanbao, Wu Zhongming and others gathered together to talk and laugh. Chen Xing highly praised Wu Zhongming's Watson Pharmaceutical Group's investment in Xing Hua County.
Boss Sha, Boss Wu, our Xing Hua County is a beautiful place. We sincerely welcome you to invest. You must help us promote our business to our friends in the business world. Chen Xing smiled and tried his best to put in a good word for Xing Hua County. Xing Hua County is an economically backward and poor county in Nanzhou City. It doesn't matter if the investment from outside falls in Nanzhou City or in the counties and cities below. To Chen Xing, it makes no difference. As the mayor, Chen Xing will not only focus on the urban area and a few places directly under his jurisdiction. To the counties and cities below, Chen Xing also attaches importance to them. If there is an opportunity to attract more investment for Xing Hua County, Chen Xing will not miss it.
Brother Sha, I have already invested in Xing Hua County. You are the leader who organized our visit to Nanzhou City, why haven't you said anything? Wu Zhongming teased Sha Yuanbao with a smile. When we first came to Nanzhou for an inspection, it was you who strongly invited us.
Yes, CEO Sha. Since CEO Wu has said so, you can't just stand there and do nothing. Xing Hua County is vast and rich in natural resources. Are there no projects that you are interested in? Chen Xing said to Sha Yuanbao with a smile.
Mayor Chen, I've worked so hard to organize Haicheng's business colleagues to come to Nanzhou City for an inspection. Isn't this all because of you? This is the greatest gesture. Mayor Chen, you can't pretend that you didn't see it. Sha Yuanbao joked. After interacting with Chen Xing a few times, he had already established a good relationship with Chen Xing.
That's two different things. Brother Sha, you're also running a business. You can't just trick us into investing. You didn't say anything. Mayor Chen, don't you think so? Wu Zhongming smiled.
That's right, CEO Wu's words have touched my heart. Chen Xing smiled. In his heart, he also knew that Sha Yuanbao wanted to invest in real estate development in Chongbei City. But for a rich man like Sha Yuanbao, if he could take out more money to invest in other things, it would be a good thing. Xing Hua County is a county city with the lowest economy in Nanzhou City. Even if it's an investment of tens of millions, it's still a good thing for Xing Hua County. No one would complain about an investment of too little money.
If CEO Sha also wants to invest in our county, our county will also give you the most preferential policies and the best services. County Magistrate Xu Qingnian interrupted in time. The smile on his face was brighter than ever. Xu Qingnian didn't know how much of the reason Watson Pharmaceutical would invest in Xing Hua County was because of Chen Xing. After all, Watson Pharmaceutical is a company from Haicheng. As the mayor, Chen Xing is a native of Haicheng. As a leader, it's normal for him to pull in investments from his hometown. Just as Wu Zhongming said, if it wasn't for Sha Yuanbao organizing an investment delegation to Nanzhou, would Watson Pharmaceutical come to Xing Hua County?
Okay, I'll keep an eye out to see if there are any good projects in Xing Hua County. If there are, I'll consider investing. Sha Yuanbao smiled and nodded. He didn't say anything definite.
Okay, I'll ask the staff to send a book about our county's investment projects to CEO Sha. If CEO Sha has any projects he likes, we'll welcome CEO Sha to visit us. I hope CEO Sha can give us a chance to entertain him. Xu Qingnian seized the opportunity and immediately said with a smile. He had just learned from the conversation between Chen Xing and the others that Sha Yuanbao was the richest man in Hai Cheng. His net worth was more than the market value of the Watson Pharmaceutical Group. If he could pull such a big boss to invest in Xing Hua County, it would be a rare big project for Xing Hua County. How could Xu Qingnian not know how to show his sincerity?
Mayor Xu, if you say so, I'll be a little embarrassed if I don't come. Sha Yuanbao said half-jokingly. He has invested in many industries, and his eyes are not only focused on real estate. Although he doesn't like the development of real estate in a poor place like Xing Hua County, it doesn't mean that he can't invest in other areas. Just for the sake of Chen Xing, he is willing to invest in any project. As long as he doesn't lose money, Sha Yuanbao is willing to pay the money.
Chen Xing looked at Xu Qingnian with some satisfaction in his eyes. As a leader, he should shamelessly pull in investments. If there is no opportunity, then forget it, but if there is an opportunity, he should try his best to fight for it. He is quite satisfied with Xu Qingnian's performance.
The lunch banquet will be held in the hotel. The county has obviously made a careful consideration for this. The dishes are not exotic, but some home-cooked dishes with local characteristics of Xing Hua County and some game. Xu Qingnian did not forget to promote Xing Hua County at the table. He smiled and said, "Boss Sha, our Xing Hua County is vast and sparsely populated, and we are rich in all kinds of natural resources. Investing in the agricultural products processing industry must be very promising. The county is also combining its own reality to create a characteristic green agricultural products processing industry, and we welcome Boss Sha to invest."
Xu Qingnian is very active at the table. On the other hand, the County Party Secretary Ye Kaiyun and the County Party Deputy Secretary Gao Yunsheng are relatively silent. Ye Kaiyun looks at Chen Xing from time to time with some uneasiness in his eyes. It seems that he is worried that Chen Xing will remember some old scores and not let go of them. Instead, Xu Qingnian will steal the limelight. As for Gao Yunsheng, with Ye Kaiyun and Xu Qingnian in front of him, he doesn't have many opportunities to perform. Moreover, Gao Yunsheng actually doesn't want to show his face. He will retire at the end of the year, so there is no need to compete in front of the leaders.
After the banquet, Chen Xing is taking a lunch break in the hotel. The people in the county have dispersed. In the afternoon, Chen Xing needs to inspect and guide the work in the county, so he will not leave immediately.
After the people in the county have left, Sha Yuanbao and Wu Zhongming are not in a hurry to leave. They are chatting with Chen Xing in the hotel room. Wu Zhongming and Chen Xing are not very familiar with each other. Now that Watson Pharmaceutical is going to invest 100 million RMB to build a Chinese herbal medicine production base in Xing Hua County, Wu Zhongming undoubtedly wants to build a good relationship with Chen Xing, the mayor of Xing Hua County. As a businessman, building a good relationship with a local leader is definitely a good thing.
The three of them chatted for less than ten minutes, Chen Xing's secretary Huang Jianghua came in to report that Xu Qingnian, the County Magistrate wants to report to Chen Xing. Chen Xing was slightly surprised, he was a little surprised that Xu Qingnian came back after leaving, but he still asked Huang Jianghua to bring him in.
Mayor Chen, since you have something to do, then CEO Wu and I will leave first. Sha Yuanbao and Wu Zhongming smiled and stood up.
Let's chat again when we have time. Anyway, CEO Sha and CEO Wu will be in Nanzhou for a long time, we will have plenty of opportunities. Chen Xing smiled.
Sha Yuanbao and Wu Zhongming both smiled and nodded. The two of them walked out and bumped into Xu Qingnian, who is walking in, and nodded again. Xu Qingnian is not the only one who came in, there are others, but the two of them don't know each other, so they don't say much.
Xu Qingnian came together with the County Political and Legal Committee Secretary and the Director of the Public Security Bureau Chen Guomin. When Chen Xing saw Chen Guomin, he was startled for a moment, then he nodded to the two of them and invited them to sit.
Mayor Chen, we are here to report to you about Dong Ruiming's case. Xu Qingnian has a smile on his face, it is not the kind of smile at the table, but he carefully sat down. Chen Guomin beside him is also similar, his buttocks only touching half of the sofa, looking humble and cautious.
Such a small case, it has not been completed until now. I did not urge you, so you seem to have a clear conscience. Chen Xing raised his eyelids and glanced at the two of them.
Mayor Chen, this case is not big, mainly because some leaders in the county secretly obstructed, so the case has not been solved. Chen Guomin answered in a low voice.
Last time when you went to the city to report to me, you also said the same thing? Chen Xing raised his head and stared at Xu Qingnian and Chen Guomin.
Mayor Chen, the situation we reported to you last time is indeed the truth. If it were not for some leaders in the county who obstructed us, this case would have been solved long ago. Xu Qingnian smiled bitterly, and his mind was tense. Last time, Chen Xing was extremely displeased with their words. This time, they deliberately delayed for a while, and he did not know whether Chen Xing's attitude would change.
After Xu Qingnian finished speaking, Chen Guomin added in time, "Mayor Chen, this case has actually been solved. The young policeman at the police station took all the blame, saying that he decided to drug Dong Ruiming and it has nothing to do with others. Normally, if he confessed, the case can be closed. Some leaders in the county have also been urging us to close the case in this way, but this result is definitely not what Mayor Chen and I want to see. Mayor Chen, what you want is to find the real murderer, not a scapegoat, so Mayor Xu and I have been under pressure and delayed closing the case.
Then tell me, who is the leader you have been talking about? " Chen Xing looked at Chen Guomin. He vaguely remembered that last time, Chen Guomin and Xu Qingnian pointed the finger at Ye Kaiyun, the Secretary of the County Party Committee. After hearing it, he reprimanded them, but did not say anything.
Mayor Chen, mainly because Secretary Ye has been interfering in this case. Under the gaze of Chen Xing, Chen Guomin answered in a low voice. Just now, he and Xu Qingnian had been using some leader in the county to replace Ye Kaiyun, the Secretary of the County Party Committee, because they did not want to say it directly. Last time, they had mentioned it once, so Chen Xing should know it. At this moment, they did not know whether he really did not know or not, which made it more difficult for Chen Guomin to guess Chen Xing's thoughts. His heart was in a mess, and he thought to himself, "Did I bet on the wrong person with Xu Qingnian this time?"
"If someone interferes in this case, you can't continue to handle it, right?" Chen Xing said with an expressionless face. No one could tell what he was thinking.
"No, although Secretary Ye has been creating obstacles for the investigation, we still persisted in the investigation under great pressure. During the investigation, we found some other clues and collected a lot of evidence. This is a serious matter, so County Magistrate Xu and I don't dare to make a decision. That's why we want to report it to you, Mayor Chen." Chen Guomin gritted his teeth. Since he had pointed out Ye Kaiyun, he simply threw caution to the wind. Anyway, today, he and Xu Qingnian took the initiative to find Chen Xing again, and they planned to take a gamble. Now, they could not advance or retreat, so they could only continue to move forward.
What clues? Chen Xing gazed at Chen Guomin.
"Since Secretary Ye has been exonerating Dong Ruiming and creating obstacles for the investigation, I boldly asked the investigators to investigate the relationship between Secretary Ye and the Dong family in private. I didn't expect that we would find such a big problem. I told County Magistrate Xu about it, and County Magistrate Xu also felt that it was a serious matter. Neither of us dared to make a sound, nor did we dare to continue the investigation, so we could only let Chen Xing decide." Chen Guomin said seriously.
"Really?" Chen Xing looked at Chen Guomin's face. "What problem did you find?
The Dong family and Secretary Ye also have important economic relations. During the investigation, our investigators found that the Dong family had bought several pieces of land in the prosperous areas of the county at a low price to develop real estate. Secretary Ye, who was the county magistrate at that time, played a big role in this. " Chen Guomin said.
"Did you know about this problem long ago, or did you just find it out now?" Chen Xing stared at Chen Guomin. Chen Xing didn't fully believe what Chen Guomin had said.
"We just found it out now, and it was also by accident. Otherwise, we wouldn't have dared to investigate Secretary Ye." Chen Guomin said with a wry smile. While talking, he exchanged a look with Xu Qingnian. Both of them carefully observed Chen Xing's expression, not knowing what decision Chen Xing would make.
"Since you've found the evidence, why don't you just hand it over to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection? Why do you have to talk to me? I'm not in charge of the organization's discipline." Chen Xing said calmly.
"Mayor Chen, this …" Chen Guomin's face was bitter. Chen Xing's attitude really chilled his heart. He had to bite the bullet and say, "We dare not hand over the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection. Both County Magistrate Xu and I are worried that something will happen. As for the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, we dare not hand it over either, for fear that it will sink into the sea and cause trouble."
Chen Xing listened to Chen Guomin's words and did not speak. He just looked at Chen Guomin and Xu Qingnian, who did not speak much. Chen Xing was not sure if the two of them had any ulterior motives, but Chen Xing would not completely believe their words. Conflicts in the officialdom had always been a common thing. If the two of them wanted to use him to topple Ye Kaiyun, it was not impossible. Chen Xing would not allow others to use him as a knife. However, at this moment, this was not the only thing Chen Xing was considering. Previously, his relationship with Ge Jian-ming had not developed to this extent. Now, Ge Jian-ming had already shown an attitude of suppressing him. Chen Xing was not a soft persimmon that could be bullied by others. What Chen Guomin said at this moment might be used by him to make a fuss.
Chen Xing was deep in thought, while Xu Qingnian and Chen Guomin were waiting anxiously. Since they had said so much, they would have to see Chen Xing's attitude. At this moment, Chen Xing was silent. Xu Qingnian and Chen Guomin's hearts were hanging in mid-air. In fact, they did not just have the evidence now. Otherwise, they would not have told Chen Xing today when Chen Xing came to Xing Hua County to attend the signing ceremony of the Washeng Pharmaceutical Group. Even if it was a coincidence, they would not have told Chen Xing about the financial relationship between Ye Kaiyun and the Dong family. However, this matter was too big. Even if they joined hands, they did not dare to make a decision. They had been hesitating whether to tell Chen Xing. Today, when Chen Xing came to Xing Hua County, they thought about it for a long time before they decided to take a gamble. They might as well tell Chen Xing today. They wanted to see how Chen Xing would react. Chen Xing's attitude was very important to them.
The reason why they did not dare to submit the evidence to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection was that Ye Kaiyun was transferred from the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee. The Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection was actually under Ge Jian-ming's command. The Secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, Tang Chengjie, must have listened to Ge Jian-ming. Without Ge Jian-ming's approval, would the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection dare to investigate a Secretary of the County Party? The answer was obvious.
If they submitted the evidence related to Ye Kaiyun to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, the result would be obvious. As the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Ge Jian-ming would definitely protect the people who came from his faction. How would they dare to submit the evidence to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection? They were even more uncertain about the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. After all, they did not have a strong supporter behind them. That was why they hesitated and looked back. Dong Ruiming's case was just an opportunity for them. They were not sure whether Chen Xing would support them or not.
Where was the evidence? Did they bring it? Chen Xing glanced at the briefcase that Chen Guomin carried.
I brought it, I brought it. Mayor Chen, please wait a moment. Hearing Chen Xing's words, Chen Guomin's face lit up. He immediately took out the evidence that he had prepared in the briefcase.
Chen Xing took it calmly and glanced at it. Chen Xing did not say anything. He just held the evidence that could determine the fate of a Secretary of the County Party Committee. No one knew what he was thinking. Chen Guomin and Xu Qingnian did not dare to breathe loudly. They stared at every expression on Chen Xing's face nervously.
After a moment of silence, Chen Xing handed the evidence back to Chen Guomin. Chen Guomin and Xu Qingnian, who were waiting for the result, saw Chen Xing's action. Their faces darkened instantly. They looked at Chen Xing with great disappointment.
Take this evidence first. Chen Xing saw the expressions of the two and felt a little complacent in his heart. A higher official could crush a lower official. No matter what they were thinking, he had the upper hand.
"Mayor Chen, what do you mean?" Xu Qingnian keenly sensed that there seemed to be another meaning in Chen Xing's words. He cheered up and asked hurriedly.
Chen Xing ignored him and shouted to the door, "Xiao Huang, ask Assistant Zhou to come in."
Huang Jianghua, who was outside the door, responded. Soon, they heard the sound of footsteps. After a while, Zhou Zhijin pushed the door and entered. Xu Qingnian and Chen Guomin looked at Zhou Zhijin curiously. They did not know why Chen Xing asked Zhou Zhijin to come in at this time. They had only heard about Zhou Zhijin, the mayor's assistant. Today was the first time they had close contact with him. At this time, when Zhou Zhijin came in, they looked at Zhou Zhijin curiously and secretly thought about what Chen Xing meant.
"You can contact Assistant Zhou directly for this case in the future. His meaning is my meaning." Chen Xing turned his head and said to Xu Qingnian and Chen Guomin.
Chen Xing's words made Xu Qingnian and Chen Guomin happy at once. At this time, Xu Qingnian forgot that he had not greeted Zhou Zhijin yet. He immediately stood up and greeted Zhou Zhijin. Chen Guomin, who was beside him, also stood up. It should be known that Zhou Zhijin, the mayor's assistant, was clearly at the deputy department level. His rank and status were higher than theirs. Moreover, at this moment, it was obvious that he was the favorite of Mayor Chen Xing.
Zhou Zhijin looked at the two of them with some doubts and turned his head to look at Chen Xing. Chen Xing gestured for Zhou Zhijin to sit down first and said to Chen Guomin, "Director Chen, tell Assistant Zhou about the situation."
Chen Guomin nodded with a smile and briefly explained the situation of the case. As for Dong Ruiming, who had instigated people to drug Chu Rong and He Li, this case was not worth mentioning compared to the case of the economic transactions between Ye Kaiyun and the Dong Family. However, thinking that this case was, after all, ordered by Chen Xing to investigate in person, Chen Guomin also mentioned it.
Mayor Chen, what do you want to do? Zhou Zhijin looked at Chen Xing and did not understand the specific attitude of Chen Xing for a moment.
Chen Xing winked at Zhou Zhijin and did not answer him. Instead, he looked at Xu Qingnian and Chen Guomin again and said, "You did a good job in this matter. You did not rashly send the evidence to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection. In such an important matter, it is always right to be cautious.
Mayor Chen, we also think so. " The smile on Xu Qingnian's face became more obvious. Chen Xing's words had already expressed a certain attitude. At least their hope was not completely lost. With the support of the great mayor, Chen Xing, they were more confident.
Well, you go ahead and do your work. Contact Assistant Zhou later. Chen Xing waved his hand, ready to see them off.
Xu Qingnian and Chen Guomin both left with satisfaction. When only Chen Xing and Zhou Zhijin were left in the room, Chen Xing spoke without any scruples. Zhijin, Ye Kaiyun was transferred from the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee. We can regard him as one of Ge Jian-ming's men.
Oh, I understand. Now that we have the evidence of Ye Kaiyun, you want to make an issue of this matter? Zhou Zhijin smiled.
Yes. Chen Xing nodded with a smile. However, we should also be on guard against Xu Qingnian and Chen Guomin's petty thoughts. Their original intention should be to pull Ye Kaiyun down from his position, which has no conflict with our purpose.
Chen Xing, even if you don't remind me, I will be careful. Zhou Zhijin smiled. I think that Xu Qingnian is so active in this matter. I am afraid that he has his eyes on the position under Ye Kaiyun. What he is doing now is actually to rely on you. This officialdom is really more ruthless than the people in the state-owned enterprises.
This is not necessarily true. In order to make progress, many people are the same. Chen Xing smiled. If people are not ruthless, how can they survive in this society? However, people who dare to take risks will always have more opportunities than others. Xu Qingnian and Chen Guomin are quite daring to take risks.
Risk always coexists with opportunity. If they dare to do this, they may be able to usher in opportunities. However, if they fail miserably, their end will not be much better. Zhou Zhijin smiled.
I appreciate those who dare to take risks within the rules of the game. Chen Xing smiled faintly. Zhijin, I'll leave this matter in your hands.
Don't worry. I was worried about not having a challenging job. I like this kind of thing. Zhou Zhijin grinned, looking as if he was eager to see the world in chaos.
The two talked for a while in the room. At the County Party Committee, Ye Kaiyun almost got the news as soon as Xu Qingnian and Chen Guomin went to see Chen Xing. When he learned that Xu Qingnian returned to the hotel with Chen Guomin, Ye Kaiyun frowned. These two people are now working together. Ye Kaiyun hated Chen Guomin very much. Chen Guomin dared to not listen to him and even went against him. This has crossed Ye Kaiyun's bottom line. For Dong Ruiming's case, he asked Chen Guomin to handle it 'beautifully' so that Chen Xing could be fooled. However, Chen Guomin pretended to agree but secretly opposed him. Ye Kaiyun had long remembered this in his heart. Sooner or later, he will deal with Chen Guomin. Now, when he heard that Chen Guomin and Xu Qingnian went to see Chen Xing at the hotel, Ye Kaiyun immediately became alert.
He asked his secretary to call Gao Yunsheng over. Ye Kaiyun smiled and asked Gao Yunsheng to sit down. Secretary Yunsheng, just now, Xu Qingnian and Chen Guomin went to see Mayor Chen together. I don't know if you know?
Is there such a thing? Gao Yunsheng was startled and looked at Ye Kaiyun. Gao Yunsheng was a little vigilant. He didn't know what Ye Kaiyun was planning.
Of course, how could I joke about this kind of thing with Secretary Yunsheng? Ye Kaiyun smiled and nodded. Ye Kaiyun also wanted to make use of this deputy official who was almost ten years older than him. He was ready to let him rush to the front line to deal with Xu Qingnian and Chen Guomin.
Let them go. Maybe they have work to report to Mayor Chen. This has nothing to do with me. Gao Yunsheng smiled. He didn't want to be led by the nose by Ye Kaiyun. He was about to retire, and now he only wanted to make money. He wanted to take advantage of his retirement and enjoy his life. He didn't want to get involved in anything. If Ye Kaiyun wanted to fight with Xu Qingnian, it was Ye Kaiyun's business. It had nothing to do with Gao Yunsheng. Gao Yunsheng wasn't interested at all. Even if he got rid of Xu Qingnian, he wouldn't be able to become the County Mayor. He was too old, and this was an uncrossable fact.
Why would he take the risk? Last time, when Mayor Chen and his friends went to the hot spring resort in our county, something happened to his friend. Mayor Chen was still paying attention to this case. He was afraid that Xu Qingnian and Chen Guomin would use this case to stir up trouble. Secretary Yunsheng, you have a good relationship with the Dong family. Aren't you worried about the Dong family? Ye Kaiyun looked at Gao Yunsheng with a faint smile on his face. He knew that Gao Yunsheng was about to retire and only wanted to make money. He didn't care about anything else. If it was a normal day, he would let Gao Yunsheng do whatever he wanted. But now, how could he let Gao Yunsheng hide in the sidelines and make a fortune silently?
Secretary Ye, Mayor Chen wouldn't make a big fuss over such a small matter. Gao Yunsheng didn't care.
It was hard to say. He was afraid that someone would take this opportunity to make a big fuss. Secretary Yunsheng, what do you think? Ye Kaiyun stared at Gao Yunsheng. If the Dong family's problem was investigated further, it wouldn't be just one or two people who would be in trouble.
