Chapter 1236: Delete Tang Ye's Name!

After hanging up the phone with Fan Shaoqun, Gao Qidong arrived at the Municipal Party Secretary's office.

Gong Weimin was holding a report in his hand and was currently losing his temper at the Director of the Finance Bureau.

"The gap between us and Suzhou City is narrowing; what is the reason for this?"

The Director of the Municipal Finance Bureau stammered, not daring to let out a full breath.

Gong Weimin glanced at Gao Qidong and instructed the Director of the Municipal Finance Bureau, "You may leave!"

Seeing Gong Weimin's ugly expression, Gao Qidong said softly, "I just received some good news: Jinhua Group is willing to restart negotiations."

Gong Weimin nodded slightly, his tone becoming gentle, "I hope we can reach a result this time."

Gao Qidong said, "Gong, there is something I must say. Our growth this year is facing problems mainly because the cadres are conservative. The older cadres are conservative, and the younger cadres are also playing it safe. For the sake of their official positions, they would rather let a large enterprise go. This is prioritizing personal gain over the development of a region; to put it seriously, it has affected the historical opportunity of a county."

Gong Weimin naturally knew who he was talking about, "Some comrades still lack experience and are not mature enough in handling problems."

Gao Qidong proposed, "I suggest adjusting the members of the negotiation team; this can reduce voices of opposition."

Gong Weimin pondered for a moment, "Who do you intend to adjust? Han Zhengyi cannot be moved; he is the Yechuan County Party Secretary. Setting him aside is inappropriate!"

Gao Qidong was well-prepared, "Remove Tang Ye from the negotiation team. Han Zhengyi is heavily influenced by Tang Ye. This will allow Han Zhengyi to adjust his mindset!"

Gao Qidong felt negotiations were not easy, and Gong Weimin decided to support him.

"Do as you see fit!"

Gao Qidong subsequently gave instructions to his Secretary.

A new list of personnel for the Jinhua Group negotiation team was drafted.

This list had one change!

Delete the name of Tang Ye...

After seeing this notice, Han Zhengyi was furious.

Previously, when Tang Ye was arranged to sit in the corner during negotiations, Han Zhengyi had already felt uncomfortable.

This was not only a humiliation to Tang Ye but also a slight toward the Yechuan County leadership team.

Now, to remove Tang Ye from the list.

This was not just looking down on someone; it was a naked insult.

"County Magistrate Tang, the negotiations with Jinhua Group have restarted. I didn't expect Mayor Gao to make such an arrangement."

"Secretary Han, I didn't expect Mayor Gao to be so petty either. I have no problem with it personally, but I am worried whether there will be problems with the project negotiations."

Han Zhengyi said helplessly, "This matter is highly scrutinized. Since Jinhua Group is coming to invest this time, there must be a result. Although I am the Deputy Group Leader, I am just a figurehead with no say."

Tang Ye sighed long and comforted him, "Secretary Han, we have both done our best in this matter."

Han Zhengyi heard the disappointment in Tang Ye's tone.

He was also powerless.

The persistence in Tang Ye made Han Zhengyi very respectful.

However, at this level of negotiation, the energy of a Department-Level Cadre is limited.

Even if he himself is a County Party Secretary and a Provincial Managed Cadre.

At certain times, one can only go with the flow.

In the evening, Tang Ye received a call from Qiao Wansen.

The project for Ruilin Group to take over Zhenao Group had been settled.

"County Magistrate Tang, it is too difficult to see you."

Tang Ye laughed, "It's not difficult. President Qiao, are you in Xiyang? I'll play host tonight and treat you to a meal."

Qiao Wansen said, "I have a dinner engagement tonight. After I finish eating, we can meet and have a cup of tea."

Tang Ye teased, "Drinking tea is so boring."

Qiao Wansen said, "As you wish. For the second round, let's find a place and drink until we're drunk."

Tang Ye laughed, "Let's stick to tea! It's better for one's health."

After hanging up the phone, Tang Ye asked Ma Ran to contact a teahouse through the County Government Office.

Qiao Wansen is a capable entrepreneur in Huai Province; maintaining a good relationship with him still has its benefits.

Tang Ye arrived at the teahouse early.

Around eight o'clock, Qiao Wansen and Jiang Jing arrived together.

Tang Ye had already brewed the tea and poured tea and water for the two of them.

After drinking tea for a while, they mentioned the Jinhua Group negotiations.

Upon learning that Tang Ye's name had been deleted, Jiang Jing comforted him, "The success or failure of a project cannot determine everything. Sometimes not participating is not a bad thing."

Tang Ye nodded slightly, "Thank you for the guidance, Mayor Jiang. My mindset is very peaceful."

Jiang Jing knew that Jinhua Group was being pushed by Gao Qidong, and he had not intervened in this matter.

He knew the reason for Tang Ye's opposition.

Tang Ye wanted to do his best to secure benefits for Yechuan County.

However, behind Gao Qidong was Gong Weimin.

If Jiang Jing were to rashly intervene, it would create opposition and make the relationships within the Municipal Party Committee filled with smoke.

Jiang Jing approved of Tang Ye.

Five hundred mu of commercial land—this is a golden resource!

The three of them chatted for a while about the Yechuan County Eastward Expansion Strategy; Qiao Wansen knew that Tang Ye had many ideas and could accomplish whatever he set his mind to, so he asked Tang Ye to see if there were any investment opportunities.

At this moment, Secretary Lu walked in and handed a mobile phone to Jiang Jing.

"Mayor Jiang, a call from Provincial Governor Fu."

Jiang Jing took the phone.

Qiao Wansen and Tang Ye tacitly chose to remain silent.

Jiang Jing said, "Provincial Governor Fu, what are your instructions? Please speak!"

Fu Yagang's tone was extremely happy, "I just received some news. The National Development and Reform Commission has decided to designate the East District of Yechuan County as a national-level High-end Manufacturing Incubation Base. The notice will be issued tomorrow. In the future, the National Development and Reform Commission will provide strong support in many areas, including policy, taxation, talent, and technology."

Although Jiang Jing was always emotionally stable, she couldn't help but stand up straight upon hearing this.

"Provincial Governor Fu, thank you so much for your support of Xiyang and Yechuan!"

Fu Yagang gave a modest laugh, "This matter has nothing to do with me. Director Qi mentioned Tang Ye to me. Not long ago, Tang Ye was received by Director Qi and gave a detailed report. His thinking was very clear, and the proposal was very brilliant. That is why Director Qi made the decision to entrust this strategic project to him to lead."

Jiang Jing said with emotion, "I will pass this good news on to him."

She hung up the phone with Provincial Governor Fu.

Jiang Jing looked at Tang Ye with a smile, "I have some good news for you. The National Development and Reform Commission has confirmed that it will build the Yechuan Eastward Expansion into a High-end Manufacturing Incubation Base. The relevant documents will be issued tomorrow. The province has already received the news in advance. Provincial Governor Fu is very happy and has highly affirmed your efforts."

Upon hearing this news, Tang Ye's mood brightened.

From attending the High-end Manufacturing Summit, to visiting Division Chief Qian under the introduction of Shi Yao, to being received by Qi Tianyi.

Every step had been very solid.

Obtaining this result was only natural!

Now that the national-level strategic policy was in hand.

The Yechuan County Eastward Expansion Strategy finally had a "core"!

Tang Ye could finally breathe a sigh of relief!

Additionally, the negotiations with Jinhua Group...

From here on, the situation was about to turn around...
