Chapter 411: The Savior of the Industrial Park!

~8 min read 1,472 words

Tang Ye emerged from the County Party Secretary's office.

On the way to his office, whether they were familiar colleagues or cadres he didn't recognize, everyone took the initiative to greet him.

The Suiyuan County Committee Compound seemed to have been injected with a warm current.

Everyone's face was brimming with joy!

After experiencing the baptism of a storm, this county seat, which had been silent for so long, finally dispelled the gloom of the past.

Following the Industrial Park project's successful entry into the ranks of National Level Project green industrial demonstration zones.

The previous achievements were overshadowed by even more excellent results!

The "Suiyuan Gang," which once huddled together for warmth, would, unsurprisingly, gradually fade from the historical stage.

Cheng Lin stood at the end of the corridor, her gaze following Tang Ye's back, her heart filled with myriad emotions.

His arrival was like a magical catalyst, causing the Suiyuan officialdom to undergo a complete transformation.

Recalling the oppressive state of mind when she first arrived in Suiyuan, and looking at the brand-new situation now, she couldn't help but marvel at the speed and depth of this transformation.

Just as Tang Ye sat down in his office, Lin Heng knocked on the door to report: "County Magistrate Tang, Cao Lei is here."

"Let him in."

Led by Lin Heng, Cao Lei walked into the room, his tone unable to hide his excitement: "County Magistrate Tang, after hearing the news, the entire Industrial Park Management Committee is boiling! Everyone is especially excited right now. If it weren't for the reform ideas you proposed, the Management Committee would have become an empty shell within half a year, and at that point, it would certainly have fallen apart like a tree losing its shade. You truly are the savior of the Industrial Park!"

Tang Ye handed over a cup of hot tea, his palm pressing lightly on his shoulder: "Old Cao, there are three things that need to be prepared immediately: first, the unveiling ceremony for the National Level Project demonstration zone; important leaders will attend, so we must refine the plan starting now. Second, establish standards for enterprise entry; there are more and more investors proactively inquiring these past few days, so the policy threshold must be clear. Third, the Management Committee's personnel must be reformed; too many lazy employees have been kept over the past few years, so we must take real action on the system and work style to thoroughly reverse the corrupt habits. You need to scout some capable young people to replenish the blood."

Cao Lei's eyes sharpened, and he solemnly promised: "Please rest assured, I will definitely implement this according to your requirements."

Tang Ye turned to Lin Heng and instructed: "Xiao Lin, you need to shift your work focus to the Management Committee from now on; report to me at any time if there is any situation. Participating in the park's construction is also a rare experience for your personal growth."

Lin Heng's spirit lifted: "I will learn well from Director Cao."

In Lin Heng's view, Tang Ye summoning Cao Lei alone and making work deployments released a clear signal.

The Suiyuan Industrial Park Management Committee was about to welcome a profound personnel reform.

If this had been in the past, there would certainly have been people who were unconvinced.

But now, Tang Ye not only had Secretary Han as support, but he had also firmly grasped the direction of the Industrial Park's development through his own methods.

Tang Ye remembered Du Chengfeng's words.

To gather the wolf pack that had previously lost its leader.

Perhaps, the Industrial Park was a very good reservoir.

Not long after, the landline rang; Han Guangyao was calling.

"Let's eat together tonight, my treat!"

"Alright! Does Secretary Han drink white spirits? I have two bottles of good liquor."

"I'm happy today, let's have a little!"

……

"Nie Kai, don't pull any more petty tricks regarding the Suiyuan Industrial Park," Xiao Jingyu cautioned in a stern tone. "This project has already been listed as a key project by the Provincial Development and Reform Commission."

"Understood, Mayor Xiao," Nie Kai replied, though his heart was full of unwillingness. "How exactly was this project secured?"

Xiao Jingyu hadn't taken Suiyuan seriously at first, after all, no one was optimistic about that mess.

"When Zhou Chengwu went to the ministry to report, he inadvertently mentioned that the Suiyuan Industrial Park was conducting environmental rectification, and as a result, it caught the attention of the ministry leaders by chance. He took the opportunity to submit the project proposal; the materials were prepared extremely solidly, and they happened to fit the leaders' planning ideas perfectly."

"Secured a National Level Project just based on a project proposal?" Nie Kai was completely stunned, as if his worldview had been overturned.

Xiao Jingyu was silent for a moment, his tone complex: "Tang Ye is a troublesome thorn, but his ability is indeed strong. It's just a pity that such a person cannot be used by me. Keep a low profile recently, don't act rashly again."

"Understood."

Nie Kai locked himself in his office for the whole afternoon, still unable to digest this fact.

Tang Ye had really secured a National Level Project.

This wasn't a matter of money, but a humiliating disgrace where he had lost all face.

He was now full of regret.

Treating Tang Ye as a gilded dog here to kill time at the grassroots level!

Yet he hadn't expected the other party to be a "strategic transport aircraft" loaded with high-end, precision, and advanced equipment.

If he hadn't gone against Tang Ye at the beginning, but instead actively cooperated, how could he be in such an embarrassing situation now?

Looking at Gao Hong, he was much shrewder; it was said he even invited Tang Ye to the Finance Hotel to play mahjong.

Gao Hong had been trying to win Tang Ye over……

"Knock, knock, knock," Xiao Deng knocked and entered: "County Magistrate Nie, let me top off your tea."

"Mm, the tea has gone cold."

Seeing that the water in the thermos cup had barely been touched, Xiao Deng still replaced the tea leaves and brewed a fresh cup.

Nie Kai took a transfer letter from the drawer and pushed it over: "I've arranged it for you; go to the township to gain experience next week."

Xiao Deng's eyes turned red instantly: "Thank you, County Magistrate!"

Nie Kai patted his shoulder: "Work hard, you are also a young person with potential."

In fact, Xiao Deng was a full six years older than Tang Ye.

Xiao Deng was the secretary for the Executive Deputy County Magistrate.

Tang Ye, however, had been the secretary for the Vice Mayor.

The gap between people was truly too great!

……

In the evening, inside a private room at a restaurant next to the County Government, County Party Secretary Han Guangyao invited a few people for a small gathering.

County Party Committee Office Director Sui Shan, Organization Department Minister Kang Jiayi, and Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary Chen Zhiyuan were all in attendance.

Seeing this, Tang Ye knew that these were the core members Han Guangyao trusted most within the current County Party Committee leadership.

"County Magistrate Tang, have a cigarette!" Kang Jiayi handed over a cigarette.

Tang Ye also took a cigarette case out of his pocket: "Minister Kang, try mine."

The tacit understanding between men is sometimes hidden in these details of passing cigarettes and lighting fires; just like women discussing cosmetics, it is a unique social romance.

During the banquet, Tang Ye unexpectedly discovered that Han Guangyao actually had a very high tolerance for alcohol; after finishing a jin of white liquor, he still did not change his expression.

……

After the dinner party broke up, the driver took Tang Ye back to the hotel.

Just after getting out of the car, he hadn't walked many steps.

In the alley next to the hotel.

A familiar figure was arguing with a man.

"Is that Cheng Lin?"

Tang Ye was too familiar with Cheng Lin; he recognized her at a glance, his heart tightened, and he walked over quietly.

Even in the dim light, Cheng Lin was still radiant.

She wore an ivory-white shirt on her upper body, with a South Sea golden pearl necklace visible at the slightly open collar, and the hand-stitched beige piping at the shoulder line swayed gently with her movements;

She paired it with amber-colored high-waisted straight-leg trousers, the cuffs hanging exactly three centimeters above her ankles, and a khaki thin belt tied into an elegant bow.

As for the man standing in front of Cheng Lin, he was tall, dressed in designer brands, groomed meticulously, and every gesture exuded the refinement of higher education.

Tang Ye had seen the man's photo.

Cheng Lin's ex-husband...
