Chapter 1796

When the Secretary-General stood at Secretary Jin's desk, Secretary Jin was looking down at something. Then he raised his head and saw the Secretary-General's panicked expression, which was like a different person from usual. That look of extreme urgency told him at a glance that something major had happened, so he looked at him gently and asked, "Secretary-General Xu, coming to find me in such a hurry, is there something important?"

The Secretary-General said anxiously, "Secretary Jin, look at the fax document from the Central General Office." As he spoke, he stepped forward, opened the blue leather folder containing the fax document, and placed it in front of Secretary Jin.

Secretary Jin said suspiciously, "What kind of document makes you, Secretary-General Xu, look so restless?" As he spoke, he lowered his head to look at the document. Soon, the smile on Secretary Jin's face froze. His features first wrinkled, and his expression immediately became more and more complex, more and more ugly, and even had a look of disbelief. He began to mutter to himself, "How could this be? How could the Central Government reject the resolution results of our Hexi Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government? This doesn't make sense!"

Secretary-General Xu continued, "I also feel very strange. According to convention, the Central Government will unconditionally follow the wishes of the province regarding the province's candidates. How could they reject the candidates reported by our Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government?"

"This is really strange. I've been in several places, and this is the first time I've known of such a thing. How could it be rejected?" Secretary Jin muttered to himself with a worried and puzzled face.

Secretary Xu asked with a low guess, "Secretary Jin, could it be that Deputy Minister Li has offended some big shot in the Central Government?"

Secretary Jin denied, "How could Li Changping know any Central Government figures! But the Central Government rejecting our Hexi Province's resolution, this doesn't make sense!"

Secretary-General Xu continued to ask, "Secretary Jin, then what should we do? Looking at the meaning of this document, it seems that the Central Government has other arrangements."

Secretary Jin glanced at Secretary-General Xu, frowned, and said in a heavy tone, "I don't know what the Central Government's intention is this time. The person we pushed up from the province was actually not agreed to. How can I explain this to Deputy Minister Li?" Secretary Jin was in a difficult position. For this matter, Li Changping had bled quite a bit. He had almost gone through all the connections that could be used in the province and had spent a lot of money. If the result could not be as desired, then he had boasted, and now he wouldn't have the face to explain it!

"Could it be that the Central Government wants to transfer people from other places?" Secretary-General Xu guessed.

The Secretary-General's words made Secretary Jin feel that it was not unreasonable. He said thoughtfully, "If they transfer people from other places, then the Central Government is acting too inappropriately. Leaders transferred from other places definitely won't understand the situation in our Hexi Province and will need an adaptation process. It will be very troublesome to coordinate work at that time. I really don't know what the Central Government is planning!" Secretary Jin complained from the bottom of his heart that the Central Government was not considering things thoroughly.

Secretary-General Xu asked, "Secretary Jin, then what about Deputy Minister Li?" As Secretary-General Xu who had accepted Li Changping's benefits, he was also extremely concerned about this issue. Once Li Changping could not get his wish and become Deputy Secretary, then he could not be at ease either.

Secretary Jin didn't speak for a long time. His expression was extremely serious, his brows were tightly furrowed, and he looked extremely troubled. After a long while, he raised his eyelids and instructed Secretary-General Xu, "Secretary-General Xu, go out first, and by the way, notify Li Changping to come to my office." Facing the document issued by the General Office of the CPC Central Committee, Secretary Jin really couldn't think of any countermeasures. With his ability, he couldn't change the result of this document at all. In desperation, he could only call Li Changping to explain the situation and shift his responsibility.

Secretary-General Xu nodded and said, "Alright, Secretary Jin, I will go notify Deputy Minister Li now."

Secretary Jin said, "Leave this document with me first."

Secretary-General Xu nodded, withdrew from Secretary Jin's office, and after returning to the Secretary-General's office, he made a phone call to Li Changping's office.

Receiving the call from the Secretary-General of the Provincial Party Committee General Office, Li Changping, who was anxious in his office to get the Central Government's appointment document, felt that the call from the General Office must be good news, so he asked with a smile, "Secretary-General Xu, is there anything you are calling me for?"
