At the Standing Committee meeting, Hou Weidong, who attended the meeting, once again realized what foresight is. The preparations Zhou Changquan made before the meeting were to prevent possible disputes, and this dispute really came as scheduled.

When Organization Minister Zhao Dong proposed the plan to take Ji Haiyang as the director of finance, Mayor Liu Bing interrupted the original speech procedure and put forward a clear stand against the opposition.

Liu Bing's attitude is rare and firm, saying: "According to the rules of procedure for the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee formulated by our district, whenever the issue of cadre appointment and removal is studied, we must do a good job in pre-meeting communication. If there are major differences, we will not submit it to the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee for discussion. I am the deputy secretary of the Shazhou Municipal Party Committee and the mayor of the government. I have the right to put forward opinions on the candidates for the Finance Bureau Director. However, if such an important issue has not been sought in advance, it is not advisable to discuss it at the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee."

In Shazhou, Zhou Changquan tightly controlled personnel power. As the secretary of the municipal party committee, personnel power is the most important means to realize political ambitions. Mayor Liu Bing is difficult to intervene in this area. Today, he also took the opportunity to attack. He has a copy of the evidence provided by Liang Chao. If it is indeed true, Zhou Changquan may be blamed.

Liu Bing knew that he could not gain an advantage in the Standing Committee, but he still had to show a different attitude from Zhou Changquan.

He had a firm look and a firm attitude, saying: "I have different opinions on Comrade Ji Haiyang's appointment as the director of the Finance Department. Comrade Ji Haiyang has not been a county chief for a long time and is not familiar with financial work. The conditions for becoming the director of the Finance Department are not mature. The Finance Bureau will promote a deputy director or a deputy director will preside over the work."

Deputy Secretary Huang Ziti strongly recommended Ji Haiyang as the director of the Finance Bureau. With his own considerations, Mayor Liu Bing paused for a moment. He immediately lit up the microphone at the table and said: "The Finance Bureau is a municipal government building bureau. There are no elements, which ruined the image of the municipal government and dragged the retreat of Shazhou's reform and development. It is really heartbreaking."

In this statement, Huang Ziti always included Kong Zhengyi's behavior on the side of the municipal government.

"In view of Kong Zhengyi's problems during the period of double-regulation, it is not appropriate to promote comrades from the Finance Bureau or to be the deputy position of the Finance Bureau. Comrade Ji Haiyang has rich experience in grassroots work and has the experience of being in charge of the government, so it is appropriate to be the director of the Finance Bureau."

Mayor Liu Bing said tit-for-tat: "The problem of Kong Zhengyi is a personal problem, not a problem of the Finance Bureau. This point must be clearly distinguished. The Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection only regulated Kong Zhengyi twice, but in fact it has clearly defined the matter. Except for a few elements of the Finance Bureau, the overall situation is still good. We cannot doubt it out of thin air, we cannot generalize it, and we cannot look at our comrades in tinted glasses."

Huang Zitidao: "This is not a doubt, but a better protection of comrades. Protecting the hard-won reform achievements of Shazhou. Moreover, from common sense, the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection has not made a clear conclusion on Kong Zhengyi. It is not appropriate to promote comrades from the Finance Bureau. We have not adjusted the work of several members of the Finance Bureau team, which is the greatest trust in them."

"Since there are serious differences over Ji Haiyang's appointment, I suggest that this proposal be put aside for the time being and put it back again when the conditions are ripe."

Huang Zitadao: "The Finance Bureau is a place that affects the whole body, and someone should be responsible for it. How can it be shelved? This matter should be proposed as soon as possible to minimize adverse effects."

Zhou Chang looked at his nose with his eyes and his nose with his heart, like an old monk sitting still. After the argument between Mayor Liu Bing and Deputy Secretary Huang Ziti entered a white heat, he coughed gently and said, "What other comrades have any other opinions?"

The deputy secretary in charge of the organization and the mayor both expressed their views. The conference room was particularly quiet. A member of the standing committee moved his butt, and the chair under his butt made a harsh sound, which was very harsh.

"If there is no objection, I will talk about two opinions. One is that Kong Zhengyi is in the period of double regulation, and it is not suitable for comrades from the Finance Bureau to preside over the work of the Finance Bureau. The other is to vote on the appointment of Comrade Ji Haiyang in accordance with the principles of collective leadership, democratic centralism, individual deliberation, and meeting decisions."

Zhou Changquan made the final decision, and the staff quickly prepared for the voting. Hou Weidong said intimately: "Liu Bing was weak in the Standing Committee, and the vote was actually a real way."

The voting result was not expected at all. Both votes opposed it, and the rest agreed. It was a foregone conclusion that Ji Haiyangping was transferred to the position of Finance Director.

After solving the problem of the appointment of the Finance Bureau, there were no disputes over other specific matters, and the tasks of the Standing Committee were successfully completed.

Since the meeting involved several issues of the municipal government, Yang Senlin, Secretary-General of the municipal government, attended the Standing Committee meeting.

The former Secretary-General Meng Houshi retreated to the second line in June, which was something he had long been looking forward to. Zhu Jianguo, deputy secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, specially asked Director Zhu, General Office of the Provincial Party Committee to call Liu Bing and Zhou Changquan respectively, and Yang Senlin successfully took over the position of Secretary-General of the Municipal Government.

Yang Senlin had already served as the secretary-general of the municipal government in June. He could see clearly the dispute between the Standing Committee today. Mayor Liu Bing was so weak at the Shazhou Standing Committee. It was heartbreaking to see people today. Just like Don Quixote fighting a monster with a single horse, it looked like a comedy, but in fact it was a tragedy.

He thought to himself: "Zhou Changquan's proposal to propose Ji Haiyang is really a clever move. The reason for denying Liu Bing's proposal is open and honest, which makes Liu Bing's opinion quite powerless."

"Although Kong Zhengyi is Zhou Changquan's confidant and has always been a disobedient to Liu Bing, the Finance Bureau is an important government bureau. Huang Zidi followed this and mixed the water, which is insidious."

"One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, it is really a subtle summary of human nature."

Yang Senlin didn't know that it was Liu Bing's conspiracy with Liang Dynasty. He would see the trends at the Standing Committee and admitted in his heart: "Zhou Changquan's political skills are really brilliant, and I have to admire him."

He and Hou Weidong sat at the adjacent table. When they were in Yiyang County, they were both superiors and subordinates. When Yang Senlin first arrived in Yiyang, he strongly demanded that Yiyang Development Zone close the polluting enterprises. This had an impact on Yiyang's fiscal revenue for several years and also found many things for Hou Weidong. A few years later, as the land prices of Yiyang New Management Committee rose steadily, proving that his decision was correct at that time.

Yang Senlin took the initiative to tell Hou Weidong: "After Ji Haiyang reported to the Finance Bureau, we three gathered together." He is now the secretary-general of the municipal government. Although Liu Bing and Zhou Changquan were not in harmony, he did not have much interest in disturbing himself in the struggle of the leader, so he intended to make friends with Hou Weidong. Although Hou Weidong's level is not high, his position is very important and may be able to play a role one day.

Hou Weidong whispered: "I will obey the Secretary-General's arrangements at any time."

Yang Senlin no longer had the aura of a county magistrate who had arrived at Yiyang at the beginning, and said politely: "Director Hou is so polite. I will come to ask you and Haiyang at that time."

When he returned to the office, Yang Senlin closed the door and called Ji Haiyang, saying, "Congratulations, Director Ji, I will ask you, the God of Wealth, to take care of you in the future."

Ji Haiyang had already learned about this. He was on the way to Shazhou at this time and said to Yang Senlin with a wry smile: "Secretary-General, I was roasted on the fire. You will have more good words in the future. Now I find that falling from the world with a sister Lin does not mean that it is a good thing." Yang Senlin said: "People the position first and wait for the turnaround."

Ji Haiyang and Yang Senlin have a good relationship, they can't be too good or bad. At this time, one of them becomes the secretary-general of the municipal government and the other becomes the director of the finance department. They both need each other. Yang Senlin makes this call, which means showing goodwill.

Ji Haiyang sat in the back row and said to the driver: "Play a song." Ji Haiyang only listened to one song in the car, which is "Santa Luqiya". He listened to this song for several years and never got tired of listening to it. Even the driver was familiar with it. After the driver had a child, he would always hum the tune of "Santa Luqiya" every time he urinated on the child.

In the beautiful melody, Ji Haiyang closed his eyes, but his mood could not calm down.

When I arrived at the municipal party committee, I met several acquaintances on the first floor. They were all very enthusiastic and said "congratulations". After the Deputy Minister of the Propaganda Department shook hands with Ji Haiyang, he said: "Director Ji, I invite you to dinner another day. This year's budget will be added. The city will hold several major events. There is no way. I will come to the Finance Bureau another day."

In Shazhou, the Finance Bureau and various units are inherently in conflict. The Finance Bureau must hold the city government's pockets tightly, and each unit will try its best to pay from the finance pockets. For the Finance Bureau, there is a reason to tilt the funds toward which unit, which is its power.

Ji Haiyang came to Zhou Changquan's office. Hou Weidong was waiting for him. While making tea, he said: "Director Ji, wait a moment. Secretary Zhou will talk about things in the small conference room and will be back soon."

Ji Haiyang was relaxed in front of Hou Weidong and said, "Why did you get me to the crater?"

"This is an opportunity, and I don't know how many people are staring at this position."

Ji Haiyang mocked himself: "Opportunity is a double-edged sword, hard to say."

Hou Weidong looked at the door and said, "The overall situation of this matter has been decided. Secretary Zhou will explain the policy later."

"I know a little about the city, but I just look at the flowers in the fog. I don't understand it. What will Secretary Zhou explain to me?"

Hou Weidong said: "In a word, the Finance Bureau must ensure stability and not be chaotic. Kong Zhengyi's incident alarmed the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. I am afraid that it is too small and that there should not be too many cadres involved because of this matter."

Ji Haiyang's mood became heavier and heavier.

The news came to the Finance Bureau, which also caused a small commotion. Deputy Director Liang Chao was quite upset. He just left Kong Zhengyi and Ji Haiyang came. He, the deputy director, was about to become the deputy director of Qiannian.

Liang Chao had several big circles in the office, remembering the vote results at the Standing Committee, and said intimately: "As long as Zhou Changquan sits in Shazhou, Liu Bing can't make a big wave no matter how capable Liu Bing is. Did I bet this treasure wrong?"

After sending the expose materials to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, he just started the attack without turning back and had to carry out the struggle to the end.
