Chapter 5653

"Yes, yes." Guo Hailong said 'yes' with his mouth, but once he heard that Gao Haiping was also present in the afternoon, he basically completely believed in his heart that it was Gao Haiping who made this call to the reporter. Guo Hailong immediately transferred his hatred to Gao Haiping, thinking: this is simply eating inside and out! He knew that Gao Haiping had been suppressed by Zhao Desan in the District Construction Committee for those years and had always been very dissatisfied with Zhao Desan, especially this time when Zhao Desan wanted to transfer him away from the District Construction Committee, which undoubtedly deepened the conflict between the two. But in his view, no matter what conflict you, Gao Haiping, have with Zhao Desan, you can't rely on damaging the reputation of Chanba District to deal with Zhao Desan! You told the reporter about the pollution problem of the Chanba District textile factory and let the reporter expose it. This can indeed cause trouble for Zhao Desan, but I, as the Deputy District Mayor, will also be implicated and will bring trouble to the entire Chanba District. Guo Hailong, as the Deputy District Mayor, also couldn't escape responsibility. If the matter escalated and higher authorities ordered the textile factory to stop business for rectification immediately, what should we do? If that happened, not only would the fiscal revenue of Chanba District suffer losses and economic development be affected, but all the main leaders of the district would inevitably have to bear responsibility.

Although it was wrong for Zhao Desan and Director Zhao to join forces to commit fraud, that was also to maintain the reputation of the entire district and to protect the textile factory. Their starting point was also for Chanba District after all. If it weren't for this grandson Gao Haiping stabbing in the back, it was very likely that they would have fooled the reporter. If they had really fooled him, then he, as the Deputy District Mayor, wouldn't have had so much pressure and would have had an easier time explaining and giving an account to the City Environmental Protection Bureau and the City Government.

But now, damn it, Gao Haiping, just for his own little thoughts, ignored the situation of the entire district. Not only did he fail to solve the problem from last time, but he also brought new problems to himself and had to explain and say good things to this Reporter Kang.

Of course, Guo Hailong could also ignore it and let Kang Chao take the call recording to expose it. But if it were really exposed, not only would it be bad for the reputation of the entire Chanba District, but it would also affect his own official career as a Deputy District Mayor. Between Wang Leji and Zhao Desan, Guo Hailong had always chosen to stand on Zhao Desan's side and was waiting for Zhao Desan to be promoted from acting secretary to secretary before long, so he could take over his position as district mayor.

Thinking this way, sure enough, after Guo Hailong knew that Gao Haiping had actually done such an insidious thing that damaged Chanba District, he wished he could agree with Zhao Desan's idea and directly kick Gao Haiping out of Chanba District, but he knew it wasn't the time yet. After Guo Hailong furrowed his brows and pondered for a while, he smiled at Kang Chao and said: "Reporter Kang, I think there must be a misunderstanding in this matter. Let's have a meal together tonight and discuss this matter. I will let Secretary Zhao and Director Zhao explain it to you."

Originally, Guo Hailong also hated this Kang Chao very much because his exposure brought not small trouble to Chanba District and himself. But now, Guo Hailong's hatred for Kang Chao suddenly lessened because he knew that this wasn't the reporter taking the initiative to expose it, but that there was a traitor inside the Chanba District leadership. If the traitor isn't cleared, can you blame the reporter? Not to mention that Guo Hailong is anxious now, even if Zhao Desan and the textile factory leaders knew, I'm afraid they would wish they could eat Gao Haiping alive.

Guo Hailong enthusiastically invited Kang Chao to have a meal together tonight to talk about this matter, hoping he would agree. After Kang Chao received that call from his old classmate, he knew that the Chanba District Party Committee and District Government were already looking for connections to try to solve this matter internally. He originally didn't want to expose it either, so he went with the flow and agreed to Guo Hailong.

At night, in the largest and highest-end Dalian Seafood Restaurant in Chanba District, Guo Hailong came forward to host a banquet for Kang Chao and several other reporters. At the same time, he also called Zhao Desan to tell him about this matter, hoping Zhao Desan could come to this meal with Director Zhao of the Environmental Protection Bureau. Everything was under Zhao Desan's control. Zhao Desan, who had already drunk two taels of small wine, naturally took Director Zhao with him to the appointment.
