Chapter 62: Performance is the Only Way to Go!

The next day, around ten o'clock.

Tang Ye received a call from Wang Kaicheng.

"Wasn't it too impulsive to arrest Hu Junsheng yesterday? This morning, someone unfurled a banner at the entrance of the County Government and called in television reporters, complaining that our arrest of Hu Junsheng was an act of violent demolition and demanding that we release Hu Junsheng immediately. Wei County Magistrate is extremely annoyed by this and has issued instructions that this matter must be handled properly at once."

"The arrest of Hu Junsheng was because he physically assaulted someone; that is a separate matter from the demolition."

"Wei County Magistrate only looks at the results! You go to the county and explain the matter clearly."

"I will head over to handle it right now."

Hanging up the phone, Tang Ye thought to himself that everything was within expectations.

However, Wang Kaicheng's attitude made Tang Ye feel quite uncomfortable.

Wang Kaicheng was a smiling tiger; he was very polite to him and would occasionally pull him along to attend banquets.

This person was skilled at managing affairs, skilled at speculation, and believed in feng shui.

For example, there was a brush rack placed on the right side of his desk, which in feng shui is called a Prosperity Official Brush.

On the left and right sides inside his bookcase were two bronze ornaments, shaped like a monkey and a horse respectively, symbolizing an Immediate Promotion Monkey and Horse.

He made a big show of all these flashy things, but whenever an important matter arose, Town Mayor Wang would play at disappearing!

For Tang Ye, having such an immediate superior was not necessarily a bad thing.

Although Wang Kaicheng liked to sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor and did not like to take responsibility.

But, his personality meant he would not interfere with Tang Ye doing certain things.

Inside the Town Mayor's office.

Cao Debiao held a cigarette in his hand, the smoke curling around his fingertips.

"Why did Tang Ye have to arrest Hu Junsheng and escalate the conflict? He is usually quite clever and smooth; how could he be so impulsive this time?"

Wang Kaicheng looked full of worry, "He is still too young. The demolition work did not complete the established tasks, so he could only choose to use brute force."

Cao Debiao was thoughtful, "If it were me, I would have cooperated with Huo Jiansheng from the start. The demolition company would be responsible for the land acquisition and demolition, and we would be responsible for supervision—it would save both effort and worry."

Wang Kaicheng sighed, "Tang Ye's original intention was good; he hoped to use the benefits of the demolition for the common people as much as possible. However, he underestimated the difficulty of the demolition. Professionals do professional work; Huo Jiansheng specializes in demolition projects in Tianling County, has many methods, and is very familiar with the County Leaders. This time, Tang Ye will likely suffer a great loss due to his lack of grassroots work experience."

If it were in the past, Cao Debiao would have been eager to see Tang Ye suffer a setback.

But, Cao Debiao's impression of Tang Ye had quietly changed.

Hu Junsheng actually dared to raise a hand and hit Guo Liang!

Guo Liang represented the Government!

If such a person is not arrested, where would the prestige of the Government be?

"During the Shashi Factory incident last time, Tang Ye annoyed Wei County Magistrate. If nothing goes wrong, Wei County Magistrate will take this opportunity to make trouble."

Wang Kaicheng glanced at Cao Debiao indifferently, "Wei County Magistrate is not that narrow-minded."

Yet, he was muttering to himself in his heart.

The county was currently conducting a Rectification Movement.

Several of Wei County Magistrate's capable lieutenants were involved in the vortex of the campaign.

And, Tang Ye had a very close relationship with Du Chengfeng, making it highly likely that he would become a sacrificial lamb in their power struggle.

Tang Ye quickly rushed to the county.

Under the pacification of the Letters and Visits Bureau, the crowd had already dispersed.

However, the representatives were still waiting for the result.

Tang Ye walked into the conference room, and everyone's gaze locked onto him in a flash.

Some were indifferent, some sneered, and more were just watching a good show.

Du Chengfeng had mixed feelings; he glanced at the seat in the back on the right, "Sit down!"

Tang Ye considered his conscience clear and sat down generously.

Du Chengfeng looked toward Wei Jian and said softly, "Let's start the meeting!"

There was no expression on Wei Jian's face, but he felt extremely delighted inside.

He knew that Tang Ye held a certain amount of weight in Du Chengfeng's heart.

He said in an extremely serious tone, "The demolition work for the Aiou Electric project in Pinghu Town has encountered major problems. I suggest transferring the demolition work to the County Government;

Secondly, Hu Junsheng must be released immediately. Regarding the demolition conditions he put forward, the county will arrange a team to communicate with him;

Finally, for causing such a bad influence, we must investigate the responsibility of the relevant personnel..."

Tang Ye sneered.

Wei Jian's long-winded speech, in summary, meant three things.

First, strip Pinghu Town of its power over the demolition.

Second, release Hu Junsheng immediately.

Third, both Chen Zhihua and himself must be disciplined.

Tang Ye was extremely angry inside.

He was downplaying Hu Junsheng's assault;

Handing over the demolition power meant that huge benefits would be taken away by forces behind the scenes;

Being disciplined would leave a stain on his resume and affect his official career;

He had spent so much effort working for the local area, only to get this result?

Tang Ye had to defend himself.

However, the situation was unfavorable to him.

Being one rank higher is enough to crush someone.

Wei Jian's tone had already set the nature of the matter.

How much effect could an explanation have at this moment?

Tang Ye did not have much confidence either.

Of course, he had outside help, and that was Du Chengfeng.

This storm was, in reality, a secret contest between Du Chengfeng and Wei Jian.

Du Chengfeng decided he had to say a few words for Tang Ye.

Otherwise, it would cause those who were wavering to lean toward Wei Jian.

At this moment, his cell phone rang.

Seeing that it was a call from Municipal Party Secretary Zhou Chengwu, he hurriedly answered it!

Zhou Chengwu's voice was booming, "Comrade Cheng Feng, I am attending a meeting in the province. I just received some good news. The Provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission has decided to locate the resort project in your Tianling County. Congratulations!"

Du Chengfeng could not hide his excitement and asked, "Is it being located in Pinghu Town?"

Zhou Chengwu laughed heartily, "That's right. Director Qi of the Provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission has a very good impression of Pinghu.

Last week, he went to Pinghu and Jinshui for an unannounced inspection and research, and he gave the cadres of Pinghu very high praise. From the Party Secretary down to the ordinary staff, they sweep the streets with the sanitation workers at five o'clock every morning; no other township in the whole province can do that.

As for Pinghu, they have also done better than Jinshui in environmental protection, and they have the awareness to protect the ecology by transforming the Shashi Factory.

In addition, Director Qi thinks extremely highly of young Tang, and the name of the resort project will also be named after young Tang's proposal—it shall be called the Health and Wellness Town!"

Du Chengfeng had originally been considering how to help Tang Ye out of his predicament.

Now that he had this news, was there still any need to help him out?

This is a merit of heaven-sent proportions; it is too late for anything but commendation!

He hung up the phone with Zhou Chengwu.

Du Chengfeng revealed a smile, "I'm telling everyone a piece of good news. The resort project originally scheduled for Jinshui Town in Chongjiang County has been secured by Pinghu. Provincial State-owned Assets Investment will be making the investment, with the first batch of funds being three billion."

As the words fell.

Wei Jian's brain was buzzing.

He knew that Du Chengfeng had been looking for ways and means for the Provincial Level Resort Project.

In Wei Jian's view, it was complete wishful thinking.

How could a county-level cadre possibly secure a project worth several billion?

The reason Chongjiang County had such high support was because Chongjiang County had produced a Deputy Ministerial Level leader who was pulling strings behind the scenes.

Who could have imagined it would actually be secured?

Tang Ye's mood was also like a roller coaster.

He had originally prepared to be criticized and had also prepared materials for his defense.

Now it seemed that none of it was necessary.

Political achievement is the ultimate truth!

Tang Ye's spirit and energy were completely different now.

He took the initiative to speak, "Secretary Du, the obstruction encountered during the demolition work in Pinghu Town this time was a carefully planned Hidden Plot; I suggest we investigate it to the end!"

As soon as Tang Ye said this.

The expressions of the attendees present were incredibly colorful.

No one expected Tang Ye's reaction to be so fast!

He wanted to use the news of the project being located in Pinghu to fight a beautiful comeback battle!
