Chapter 837: The new Standing Committee members are unusually united

Zhao Nanxing immediately expressed his stance: "Rest assured, we will definitely do a good job of Lieshan County's work under the guidance of the Provincial Party Committee and the leadership of the Municipal Party Committee, and there will absolutely be no recurrence of the previous situation."

"Besides, our county has cadres like Comrade Su Yang who are young, decisive, energetic, and capable with connections; no matter how much work was previously neglected, we can definitely catch up with our heads down."

"On my way here today, I heard a colleague say that Comrade Su Yang has already prepared a five-year plan, including attracting investment, including developing local advantageous industries, and even strengthening urban construction and repairing Yingbin Avenue."

"These tasks are enough to keep us working hard for five years."

"From now on, we still have to rely on Comrade Su Yang; we can only supervise, making sure he doesn't misdirect his efforts."

Su Yang hearing these words felt very displeased; this was entirely a rebuke aimed at him. Yet he still smiled and said: "I am still young, I don't understand many things; I am completely like a blind man feeling an elephant. During this period, I am feeling uneasy and fearful."

"Now it's fine; County Magistrate Zhao and all comrades have arrived, so we no longer need to worry about so many things or be anxious."

"All I need to do is handle my own work properly; frankly, my qualifications and experience are insufficient to oversee the entire county's work."

"Today I also happen to take this opportunity to hand this heavy burden back into County Magistrate Zhao's hands, hoping that under his leadership we can soon achieve the takeoff of Lieshan County."

Upon saying this, the others' faces also slightly changed; they finally realized that Su Yang was not a fuel-efficient lamp.

County Magistrate Zhao merely made a light comment about Su Yang, and the latter directly retorted.

"Aren't you supposed to stand high and point fingers? Now the whole county's work is handed back to you; we await you to lead the county to take off."

Zhao Nanxing's face froze slightly, then he laughed and said: "Hehe, didn't Department Head Lu just say that? Our county can't withstand any more turmoil."

"From now on we must unite wholeheartedly, truly put the people's interests first, and the task of attracting investment still falls on you to handle."

"As for the other work, we'll make decisions after we familiarize ourselves with the situation these two days and after the Standing Committee meeting."

Chen Bo dismissed it with contempt; in the end he was still thinking of using his position to suppress Su Yang.

But once actually in the Standing Committee meeting, whether it's as you think is hard to say.

At this moment, Qi Guohui suddenly said: "County Magistrate Zhao, the Standing Committee meeting probably needs to be convened these two days; I heard our Standing Committee team is lacking a Town Party Committee Secretary for Shuanggou Town."

"Before, because the county only had four Standing Committee members, this matter had been left pending until now; now we finally have everyone present."

"This is an urgent matter, especially Shuanggou Town, which is still the county's leading economic town; although the Shuanggou Large Koji Winery has declined, a skinny camel is still bigger than a horse."

"Without a Town Party Committee Secretary for a day, proper work cannot be fully launched, nor can it proceed in an orderly manner."

"Originally, as the Political and Legal Affairs Commission Secretary, these matters shouldn't be proposed by him, after all this is not a public security issue but a personnel issue."

"However, it is quite abrupt for a Political and Legal Affairs Commission Secretary to raise personnel matters."

"If only Qi Guohui had raised it, that would be fine, but unexpectedly the Executive Vice County Magistrate Jiang Tao also echoed: 'Yes, although today is our welcome banquet and we shouldn't discuss work matters, the situation of Lieshan County is known to Department Head Lu, so I don't think they'll blame us for talking about work at this time.'"

"Historical legacy issues must be resolved; regarding the team members, we also need to fill the positions as soon as possible."

"I also agree to convene the Standing Committee meeting these two days."

After his statement, United Front Work Department Head Yang Kang also spoke, saying only: "I also agree."

"In an instant, the newly arrived several Standing Committee members, except for the Publicity Department Head Bao Shuang, had already coalesced into a single rope; this situation is truly rare."

"However, Su Yang didn't wait for Bao Shuang to speak; he turned his gaze toward Zhou Yanru and the others."

Zhou Yanru immediately said: "Of course, personnel work is also my main duty; earlier it was indeed delayed for various reasons, we had already settled on the candidates and were just waiting to pass the Standing Committee meeting. Since everyone proposes to convene, I think we should hold it tomorrow."

Chen Bo followed closely: "What Secretary Zhou said is correct; I am responsible for organizational work, the Shuanggou Town Town Party Committee Secretary has not been decided, I bear responsibility, so I strongly agree."

Hou Junlai straightforwardly said: "To be frank, this personnel issue remains unresolved, it's not anyone's fault, but because the comrades haven't arrived, so I wholeheartedly agree."

"This almost left Zhao Nanxing at a loss; what's this? I was giving you a show of force to display my authority, yet you actually took it seriously and challenged me to a contest."

"Not only was he greatly surprised, but Jiang Tao was also very surprised, because in their view, the past was the past, and the present is the present."

"Before, there were only four people in the county; Geng Miao's matter was settled solely by Su Yang, and with Su Yang presiding over work, there was no problem for this group to unite around Su Yang."

"Now County Magistrate Zhao has arrived, yet this group is still so united; it seems things will indeed become lively from now on."

"The only one who hadn't had time to express his stance, Bao Shuang, flashed a thoughtful expression on his face; no one knows what he's thinking."

"Department Head Lu, smelling the already ignited gunpowder, said: 'In that case, let's rest a bit earlier today and not delay tomorrow's work.'"

"In his view, this is a clash of new and old forces; even if not tomorrow, it could be the day after or the day after that, so let them proceed earlier."

"Originally, the welcome banquet was still superficially filled with laughter and cheer, but in this discordant atmosphere it came to a close."

"Originally, even if the newcomers were leaders, it would be impossible to convene a Standing Committee meeting the next day; this clearly violates convention."

"But after Zhao Nanxing mentioned it, the others began to wholeheartedly approve and support."

"Perhaps in Zhao Nanxing's view, they hold an absolute advantage; he wants to seize control of the Standing Committee before the top leader takes office, so as to let Su Yang realize reality and know who the true leader is."

"On the other hand, it is also preparation for work after the year; at least he still assumes the newly appointed secretary is like those elsewhere, at least equal in rank to him."

"If he strikes first, it's not impossible to firmly control the situation; in the future he can at least achieve a balance of power."

"Moreover, he is full of confidence in his background, thinking that even if the final outcome is unsatisfactory, he can turn the situation around by revealing his background."

"Especially at their level, if they have a strong backer in the Provincial Party Committee, they can absolutely ensure their word is final."

"Not to mention that he is still the county magistrate; even other Standing Committee members could do the same."

"Such things have not been absent elsewhere; moreover, they occurred not in the county but in the city."

"In some place, the Vice Mayor's words and deeds are more effective than those of the Municipal Party Committee Secretary; this is a living example right before his eyes."

"Therefore he is full of desire and confidence in power."

"Even someone like Su Yang, he doesn't even put in his eyes."

"He can't wait to immediately enter the County Party Standing Committee to give Su Yang a proper lesson."
