Chapter 1276: The Mastermind Behind the Whistle-blowing Letter!

The transfer order for Han Zhengyi came down very quickly.

Han Zhengyi will head to the Propaganda Department to serve as Executive Deputy Minister.

A County Party Secretary governs a region and can be called a local feudal lord;

although the Executive Deputy Minister of the Municipal Party Committee Propaganda Department is also at the Division Level, there is still a gap between their actual power and that of a County Party Secretary.

Therefore, the outside world generally believes that this transfer of Han Zhengyi is intriguing.

As for Han Zhengyi himself, he has thought it through; his age has reached the limit, so he can transition smoothly in the Propaganda Department, and in the next step, he can go to the Municipal CPPCC to hold a position steadily and gradually retire to the second line.

Gao Qidong felt exceptionally relieved when he saw this transfer order.

He took the initiative to call Ding Zhen, the Development and Reform Commission Director.

"Director Ding, this is Gao Qidong."

Ding Zhen hurriedly responded: "Mayor Gao, hello, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Are you free tonight? Shall we have a casual meal together?" Gao Qidong asked with a smile.

"Sure, why don't I make the arrangements?" Ding Zhen offered.

"Let me handle it; I'll send you the address later."

That night, he invited Ding Zhen to his private villa.

The Secretary had invited a professional chef from a well-known large restaurant in advance; although there were only two people dining, a table full of delicacies had been prepared.

Looking at the sumptuous dishes on the table, Ding Zhen felt quite surprised and said with a smile: "Mayor Gao, you are being too polite."

Gao Qidong laughed: "To congratulate you on your promotion in advance, it naturally has to be done more grandly."

Ding Zhen waved his hand and replied with a smile: "It can't really be called a promotion."

Gao Qidong said: "I don't know how many people are eyeing the position of Yechuan County Party Secretary. Although the Municipal Development and Reform Commission is also a core and vital department, Yechuan is an excellent stepping stone for one's official career. Once you have successfully served a term at the Municipal Development and Reform Commission, you will surely be able to climb even higher when you enter the municipal-level leadership team in the future."

Ding Zhen smiled and continued: "By the time I finish my term, Mayor Gao will surely have already advanced further. At that time, I hope for your continued support and guidance, Mayor Gao."

Gao Qidong showed a hint of sorrow: "My path for promotion upward has already been blocked; it is truly too difficult to advance further."

Ding Zhen followed up: "Jiang Jing won't be able to stay in Xiyang City for long; he came to Xiyang just to accumulate political achievements. When the time is ripe, he will definitely return to the province to develop. Once he leaves, the position of Mayor will undoubtedly be yours."

Gao Qidong was quite satisfied with Ding Zhen's analysis and feigned modesty: "Although Jiang Jing's character isn't much, his work ability is passable. His focus has always been on Yechuan. Gong arranging for you to go to Yechuan clearly has deeper meaning."

Ding Zhen pondered for a moment and did not hide anything: "Gong instructed me to keep in step with the Municipal Party Committee's decisions during my tenure in Yechuan."

A cold sneer flashed across the corner of Gao Qidong's mouth: "The reason Han Zhengyi was transferred away is precisely because he did not follow the city's deployment and caused a slip-up on the Jinhua Century City project, dragging his feet."

Ding Zhen deliberately pretended to be puzzled: "Why did Han Zhengyi want to block the Jinhua Century City project from settling in Yechuan? It really is hard to understand."

Gao Qidong smiled faintly: "When you get to Yechuan, you must keep an eye on a person named Tang Ye. His destructive power is extremely strong; Han Zhengyi was most likely bewitched by him."

Ding Zhen's expression was grave, and he sighed: "Tang Ye relies on being a favorite in the Mayor's eyes and has never followed the rules in his actions; I have already experienced that."

Gao Qidong asked with slight surprise: "Oh? Do you have any grudges with him?"

Ding Zhen waved his hand: "It can't be called a grudge. For that national-level High-end Manufacturing Incubation Base project, he didn't go through the city's procedures and reported the materials directly. I only realized it after the fact when the province asked me for the relevant materials, which left me in a very passive position..."

Gao Qidong feigned worry for Ding Zhen: "So that's how it is! With such an overly capable deputy, it is indeed difficult for you to carry out your work."

Ding Zhen knew clearly that Gao Qidong was sowing discord, but he pretended to be completely unaware and continued to say quite a few disparaging things about Tang Ye and Jiang Jing.

With Gao Qidong's secret support, he felt much more confident after arriving in Yechuan to take office.

Leaving the villa, Ding Zhen rolled down the car window, and the biting cold wind poured into the car, causing his drunkenness to dissipate quite a bit.

The outside world has been discussing the incident where Han Zhengyi was reported by someone a while ago!

Through his contact with Gao Qidong tonight, Ding Zhen concluded that this matter was nine times out of ten done by Gao Qidong.

Ding Zhen's guess was not wrong at all!

That whistle-blowing letter was written by Gao Qidong himself!

Even his wife didn't know that his left hand could write a neat and beautiful Song typeface.

"Gao Qidong, you really are despicable!"

Gao Qidong muttered to himself alone, saying this sentence.

The tone was mixed with a bit of self-mockery, yet it also revealed a bit of smugness...

The reason Gao Qidong wrote this whistle-blowing letter was, firstly, to avenge the obstruction of the Jinhua Century City project, and secondly, because he had accurately grasped the thoughts of Gong Weimin.

Gong Weimin is a top leader with an extremely strong desire for control.

The Jinhua Century City project was a key project that he personally entrusted to Gao Qidong, but it was ultimately ruined by Han Zhengyi, which made Gong Weimin very dissatisfied.

From Gong Weimin's perspective, a County Party Secretary who is out of control can absolutely not be left alone!

Once there is a loss of control, there will be a second time; he would never hand over the right to speak in Yechuan to Jiang Jing.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, two months have passed.

Han Zhengyi's transfer had a certain impact on the work in Yechuan, but life continued to move forward as usual.

Under the leadership of the new leadership team, the people of Yechuan are unswervingly striving toward a better life.

Ding Zhen presided over the overall work of the County Party Committee and launched a massive "In-depth Implementation of the Scientific Outlook on Development" theme study campaign throughout the county.

The first month was the centralized study phase, where all localities and units were required to establish special working bodies, formulate detailed implementation plans, and conscientiously finish reading the study materials designated by the County Party Committee;

the second phase was the problem investigation phase, where, on the basis of the first month's study, they were to combine the actual work of their local areas and units to find development gaps and work shortcomings;

the third phase was the rectification and improvement phase, to solve various problems identified through practical actions and effectively improve the quality and level of county-level development;

the fourth phase was three months after the end of the campaign, to conduct a comprehensive review and inspection of the campaign's effectiveness.

This theme campaign was Ding Zhen's first major move after taking office as County Party Secretary.

The campaign was massive and attracted high attention from relevant departments of the Provincial Party Committee and the Municipal Party Committee.

In his work report, Ding Zhen emphasized: "This is a crucial rectification action for the work style of Yechuan County; by rectifying the Party's style and political conduct, we will comprehensively improve the combat effectiveness and cohesion of the cadre team."

Although Tang Ye did not know much about the specific content of the campaign, he paid attention to the list of cadre adjustments.

This batch of the name list adjusted many Section-level Cadres.

This group of people were the backbone Han Zhengyi had cultivated for many years, and they were also the pillars of support.

She sighed to herself: "Any leader who governs a region wants to appoint confidants they can trust; as long as the cadre appointment system continues to implement an appointment-based system, this problem can never be eradicated."

Throughout history, any newly appointed top leader has always used the name of various movements to eliminate dissenters and install their own cronies; it has always been this way!"

The office landline suddenly rang.

Tang Ye picked up the phone, and Han Zhengyi's voice came through the receiver.

"County Magistrate Tang, I hear the wind is blowing quite hard in Yechuan recently!"

Tang Ye replied: "The commotion is indeed not small; Minister Han has heard the rumors all the way in Xiyang!"

Han Zhengyi laughed heartily: "I had long anticipated this result. His purpose in launching this study movement is clear as day: it is to use the opportunity of the movement to replace the cadres I have heavily relied upon."

Tang Ye nodded lightly: "I truly miss the days when the two of us worked side by side."

Han Zhengyi was far more perceptive than others imagined, and he encouraged him: "Eight or nine out of ten things in life do not go as planned; I believe you will be able to adapt to the brand-new environment very quickly. Only by maintaining a positive mindset can you carry out your work with composure."

After hanging up Han Zhengyi's call, Tang Ye raised his hand to rub his throbbing temples.

The more Ding Zhen made a big show of conducting the movement, the more advantageous it was for him.

Because by acting this way, he would force everyone whose stance was originally wavering or whose attitude was unclear over to his side!

Du Xi went to the hospital for a prenatal check-up accompanied by her mother today, and he did not know how the check-up results were.

Thinking of this, Tang Ye immediately dialed Du Xi's number...
