Zhang Yang sent Gong Qiwei downstairs to his house. Just as he saw Yang Ning and his daughter walking out together, Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Go back quickly, my sister-in-law has come out to find you."

Gong Qiwei smiled and looked at the figures of his wife and daughter in the distance, and a hint of guilt arose in his heart. He was in a bad mood and went out to relax, but he did not consider the feelings of his family. I believe that the family would not be at ease during the period when he left. Gong Qiwei pushed open the car door and walked down.

Zhang Yang also got out of the car and smiled at Yang Ning: "Sister-in-law, come out to pick up Mayor Gong."

Yang Ning smiled gently and said, "No, I will take Yaxin out for a walk."

When Zhang Yang heard that this was an excuse, there was no need for him to point it out. He smiled and said goodbye to Gong Qiwei's family, turned around and left.

Gong Qiwei came to his wife and daughter, and his daughter Yaxin stepped forward to hold his arm. Both mother and daughter smelled the alcohol on him. Yang Ning said: "Drinking alcohol hurts your body, you are no longer young."

Gong Qiwei smiled and said, "I am still young in the cadre team."

Gong Yaxin's eyes were a little red: "Dad, don't go out without saying a word in the future. Mom and I are very worried about you."

Gong Qiwei reached out and pinched his daughter's pink face, opened his arms, wrapped his wife's slender waist with one hand and put the other on his shoulder. Yang Ning felt a little embarrassed and broke free and said, "You are not afraid of being seen by others."

Gong Qiwei laughed and said, "No, as long as I walk straight, I'm not afraid of anything!"

In Xia Boda's memory, Xu Guangran rarely talked to himself alone. Today, Xu Guangran found himself early in the morning. Not only that, Secretary Xu showed a rare modesty: "Old Xia, what do you think of the development of the deep water port?"

Xia Boda smiled and said, "It's pretty good!" He couldn't help but doubt Xu Guangran's motives. Xu Guangran has always excluded him from the deepwater port project, for fear that he would dilute his political achievements. But today he took the initiative to talk to him about the deepwater port. Xia Boda immediately smelled a trace of unusual air. Could it be that Xu Guangran's handling of the deepwater port had been noticed by the province?

Xu Guangran's next words gradually confirmed Xia Boda's speculation. Xu Guangran sighed and said, "From the establishment of the Deepwater Port project, Chang Lingkong has always been responsible for it. At such a critical moment, the province transferred him to Lanshan as mayor. Such a big stall is not easy to clean up."

Xia Boda smiled indifferently and said, "Didn't Chen Hao do a good job?"

Xu Guangran said: "There are only two of us here. To be honest, Chen Hao has a little gap in his ability compared to Chang Lingkong."

Although Xia Boda was very disgusted with Xu Guangran, he also agreed with this sentence. Chang Lingkong was very capable. It is precisely because of this that after he came to Nancy, he was even less powerful than Chang Lingkong, the executive vice mayor. On the one hand, with Xu Guangran's support, and another important reason is because of Chang Lingkong's personal ability.

Xia Boda said: "Chen Hao just accepted the management of Deepwater Port, so he had to adapt. We leaders should be more patient."

Xu Guangran said: "How do you think Gong Qiwei?"

Xia Boda became more and more alert to Xu Guangran. Yesterday, Xu Guangran taught Gong Qiwei a lesson. Today I will come here to consult his opinion. What is his purpose? Do you think he is not ruthless enough to step on Gong Qiwei, and plan to kick it? Xia Boda said: "Comrade Qiwei is still very enthusiastic about his work."

Xu Guangran said: "I plan to let Chen Hao be responsible for sports. Gong Qiwei is younger and more motivated than Chen Hao. Lao Xia, is it more appropriate to put him in the deep water port?"

Xia Boda didn't say anything and made a thoughtful look. In fact, he was waiting for Xu Guangran's following.

Xu Guangran secretly scolded Xia Boda, the old fox, and he was too lazy to even express his opinions.

Xia Boda thought to himself, Xu Guangran, Xu Guangran, you must be in trouble. It would be strange if I want to pull me into muddy water at this time.

Xu Guangran said: "Old Xia, how do you think this division of labor is like?"

Xia Boda said, "Are you talking about Xingyue Group's second phase investment at the moment? It doesn't seem that the replacement will be better if you change the player in the last round."

Xu Guangran said: "Yesterday Gong Qiwei found me and talked about the Deepwater Port. I felt that his ideas were very creative. We should give certain support to such enthusiastic and thoughtful cadres."

Xia Boda secretly said, "You are the one who throws him, and you are the one who lifts him." God knows whether your purpose is to throw him harder? Does this matter have anything to do with me? I am engaged in my municipal construction. The deep water port is simply a muddy water port. Now you are making a mess. You were afraid that I would leave your political achievements and would not let me touch them. Now that I am in trouble, I come to ask for my opinion. I am too lazy to care about you.

Xia Boda said: "I agree with Secretary Xu's decision."

The more important reason why Xu Guangran came to Xia Boda was that he suspected that Xia Boda played a certain role in promoting the Gong Qiwei incident. Although Xia Boda was kind on the surface, this guy has always been a political old man. After so many years of training around Gu Yunzhi, he has learned some of the essence of Secretary Gu's politics. Xu Guangran had long known that Xia Boda was dissatisfied with him, but in Nancy, he had the right time, place and people. Even if he was a cross-river dragon, he had to bow his head and give in here. If it were someone in Xia Boda.

He would not be willing to be at the position, but Xia Boda is a good person who is good at superficial skills. Every time he meets Xu Guangran, he smiles. When he faces him, he is like an old friend who has been with him for many years. People who don’t know how to guess Xia Boda’s hatred for Xu Guangran in his heart. Everything starts from Zhang Yang coming to Nancy. This kid comes here as if he is against him. Xu Guangran initially thinks that Zhang Yang is a chess piece of Xia Boda, but as time goes by, he finds that Xia Boda cannot control Zhang Yang, and Zhang Yang’s performance on Nancy’s mainboard is more straightforward.

After Gong Qiwei's incident alarmed the province, Xu Guangran had already seen many things clearly. What was really dissatisfied with him was the province. Secretary Qiao of the Provincial Party Committee was dissatisfied with the current situation in Nancy City, so Chang Lingkong was transferred, so he was able to support Gong Qiwei. But now Xu Guangran still would not think about who was supporting Zhang Yang, and he was unwilling to think about it. No one could have imagined that Secretary Qiao of the Provincial Party Committee would deliberately arrange a deputy department-level cadre to come to Nancy to make trouble.

Xu Guangran returned to the office, and Executive Vice Mayor Chen Hao was already waiting for him. Chen Hao was not sure why Secretary Xu summoned him early in the morning, and he thought Secretary Xu wanted to emphasize the signing of the contract with Xingyue Group today.

Xu Guangran did not deliberately conceal anything in front of Chen Hao, and said straight to the point: "Chen Hao, after our leadership research, we believe that the top priority of Nancy is to welcome the upcoming provincial games, so we decided to let you take charge of Nancy's sports work from today."

Chen Hao was stunned for a moment. He obviously failed to fully understand Xu Guangran's meaning. He said with a bitter face: "Secretary Xu, a deep-water port has exhausted me. Now you hand over the sports work to me. It's not that I want to shirk responsibility, but I am really powerless." He felt strange. Yesterday, Xu Guangran planned to hand over the sports work to Wang Haibo, but why did it change after coming over overnight?

Xu Guangran said: "Chen Hao, you didn't understand. What I mean is that your main task in the future is to be responsible for sports work, be responsible for handling the provincial games, and leave the affairs of the Deepwater Port to others."

Chen Hao was completely stunned and widened his eyes. He didn't understand what happened to Secretary Xu? Why did he turn around and get it on his head? He finally made some improvement in the deep water port. He kicked himself out with one foot. Chen Hao said, "Who are you leaving it?"

Xu Guangran said: "After the leadership research, everyone has always thought that Comrade Gong Qiwei is more suitable."

Chen Hao felt so wronged. He almost burst into tears. Isn’t this a fun person? Secretary Xu, Secretary Xu, we don’t bring such a person. After doing this for so long, you are messing with me! Leadership research? Am I a fucking leader? Who did you study with? I’ve been declining from the Standing Committee, why didn’t you listen to you? After leaving the Deepwater Port, you handed over to me. I worked diligently and devoted myself to the Deepwater Port. I haven’t even slept for a good night. I have no fucking credit and hard work. You just said leadership research to leave me alone. I’m too heartless.

Of course, Xu Guangran could see Chen Hao's grievances. He also knew what Chen Hao was thinking. He sighed and said, "Xiao Chen, the province has called. Secretary Qiao is very concerned about Comrade Gong Qiwei." This sentence is equivalent to pushing all the responsibility to the top, and the intention is to confess to Chen Hao. If the province has spoken, I can't do anything.

Chen Hao then realized that he lowered his head, like a defeated rooster. After a while, he raised his head and said, "Secretary Xu, I'm not convinced!"

Xu Guangran walked over, came to Chen Hao, and patted his shoulder: "No one's feet are smooth, and it is inevitable that bumps and bumps are made on the official journey. In fact, the significance of this Provincial Games is not smaller than that of the Deepwater Port, and this burden is not light."

Chen Hao thought it could be compared? The Provincial Games are a national entertainment event, with at most some political significance. If they are done, they may not increase much political achievements. If they are done, they may become the target of thousands of people in Pinghai Province. The deep-shui port is different. After they are completed, they will be influenced by future generations and may not be fully utilized for the entire life. Then he remembered something: "Secretary Xu, I heard that Gong Qiwei went to the province two days ago and was also received by Secretary Qiao of the Provincial Party Committee."

Xu Guangran sighed. Chen Hao said this too late. It seemed that Gong Qiwei was a restless guy. He actually bypassed him and went directly to Qiao Zhenliang to report the situation, which laid the foreshadowing today. What made him helpless was that Gong Qiwei used something to attract Qiao Zhenliang, but actually gained the appreciation of the provincial party secretary.

Chen Hao said: "I didn't expect this person to be so despicable, so I'll do some small moves."

Xu Guangran patted his shoulder again and said, "Comrades should cooperate well and never have conflicts over trivial matters that make mistakes. You are the executive vice mayor, and you have to take care of many of the work in Nancy City in person."

This sentence is equivalent to giving Chen Hao a reassurance. He is still the executive vice mayor. He is the first among the deputy mayors. He just adjusted the division of labor and did not demote him. Chen Hao said: "Secretary Xu, don't worry, no matter what job I asked me to do, I will do my best. As a cadre, I am not greedy for official positions, but to do as much work as possible for the people, do more practical things, and do more good things."

Xu Guangran nodded with relief. Although Chen Hao's ability was a little worse, this person was very obedient. For him, an obedient subordinate was more popular than a capable subordinate.

While the two were talking, Deputy Mayor Gong Qiwei also arrived. Because Xu Guangran had given him in advance, he would come in as long as Gong Qiwei came, so Gong Qiwei and Chen Hao met. Chen Hao felt uncomfortable from the bottom of his heart when he saw Gong Qiwei. Although Gong Qiwei greeted him with a smile, he felt that Gong Qiwei's smile was full of sarcasm to him. He nodded coldly, stood up and said goodbye to Xu Guangran: "Secretary Xu, I'm leaving!"

Xu Guangran knew that Chen Hao was feeling uncomfortable and did not try to keep him. He originally wanted Chen Hao and Gong Qiwei to hand over the work in person.

After Chen Hao left, Xu Guangran nodded to Gong Qiwei, turned around and returned to his desk and sat down. Gong Qiwei subconsciously looked at the ground. Yesterday, Secretary Xu threw the cup in front of him. Now everything has returned to normal. There is no anger on Xu Guangran's face, but Gong Qiwei could still clearly feel Xu Guangran's heartfelt indifference. He also understood that this time Secretary Qiao interfered with Nancy's political affairs, Xu Guangran had completely cut him to the opposite side, but Gong Qiwei was ready to welcome any storm from the moment he made suggestions to Xu Guangran.

Xu Guangran said: "Qiwei, Secretary Qiao of the Provincial Party Committee admires your suggestions very much!" When he said this, his lips seemed to be making a smile, but it was a sneer on his face.

Gong Qiwei said bluntly: "I went to the province two days ago and happened to meet Secretary Qiao. He asked about the situation in Shenshui Port, so I said my own point of view."

Xu Guangran nodded: "Very good. If all of our cadres can be like you, communication between us and our leaders will become easier."

Gong Qiwei heard the ridicule of himself in his words, and he smiled: "Secretary Xu, in fact, communication with leaders and the masses is equally important. When a cadre, one must gain both the understanding of the people and the support of the leaders. Only in this way can one do things well."

Xu Guangran was secretly angry. Gong Qiwei was really rampant. He actually taught himself a lesson in the other way. He didn't want to talk nonsense with Gong Qiwei, and said calmly: "Comrade Qiwei, after the organization's discussion, we think that it is more realistic to hand over the command of the construction of the deep water port to you under the current complex situation. Are you willing to accept this burden?"

"I do!" Gong Qiwei said only three words, but he was determined and loud.

Xu Guangran looked at Gong Qiwei full of confidence and couldn't help but sneer in his heart. Ideals and reality are always full of gaps. While accepting this burden, it means accepting the same responsibility as the same weight. If you can't stand it, you will be overwhelmed by this burden. Not only that, you will be defeated in your career from now on and will never turn over. Secretary Qiao is full of hope for you, but when his hope becomes disappointment, I don't believe that he will support you like now?

The division of labor changes of the Nancy City leadership was so sudden and without any warning, which caught the Standing Committee members off guard, let alone others. The old stadium plot transfer agreement was signed in the third conference room of the Nancy City Government that morning. Fan Siqi, president of Xingyue Group, and her assistant Lin Peipei, arrived here five minutes in advance. Fan Siqi did not know that the person in charge of the Deepwater Port project construction had changed hands. She had a smile on her face. Today is a good day. Taking the stadium plot without a single penny will not only reduce Xingyue's investment risks in Nancy, but also this beautiful blow can block the mouths of the old ministers on the board of directors. Her trust crisis within Xingyue can also be temporarily lifted. Business is business. Whether facing individuals or governments, you must seize all opportunities and not miss any bargaining opportunities and get the greatest benefits as much as possible. This is a real businessman.

Two minutes have passed. In Fan Siqi's impression, Chen Hao is rarely late. Lin Peipei beside him looked at his watch and whispered to Fan Siqi: "Mr. Fan, it's already two minutes late."

Fan Siqi smiled and didn't say anything. She picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip of tea. She could imagine the frustration of Nancy's city leaders at this time. She had completely gained the upper hand in the negotiations around Deepwater Port. She felt like a winner waiting to send a book of surrender.

Time passed by minute by minute, and ten minutes had passed, but no one was coming. Fan Siqi began to feel something was wrong. Logically speaking, she would not be late for so long. What was going on?

Lin Peipei was the first to be impatient and whispered: "They are so rude."

Fan Siqi whispered: "Wait a little longer!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the door of the conference room opened and Deputy Mayor Gong Qiwei walked in with a smile on his face.

Fan Siqi felt a little strange. She was not familiar with Gong Qiwei. The one who had been in contact with the most was Chen Hao, the executive vice mayor, but she didn't know why Chen Hao didn't come? Gong Qiwei came to the opposite side of Fan Siqi and sat down, and introduced himself with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Fan, I am Gong Qiwei, Deputy Mayor of Nancy City. From today on, I will replace Mayor Chen to be fully responsible for the work of the Deepwater Port."

Fan Siqi frowned. Everything changed so suddenly, which caught her off guard. Nancy City changed players at this critical moment. What is their purpose? Is there a change in the stadium plot? Fan Siqi quickly adjusted her inner emotions and reached out to Gong Qiwei with a smile: "Hello, Mayor Gong, I hope we can cooperate happily."

Gong Qiwei smiled and said, "Ms. Fan is an investor. On behalf of the Nancy Municipal Government, as long as we benefit each other, understand each other, and have a happy cooperation, there will be no problem."

Fan Siqi said: "Since Mayor Gong has taken over the work of Deepwater Port, I will sign a contract with you today."

Gong Qiwei smiled and said, "I just took over the work of Deepwater Port. The signing of the contract may be delayed for a few days. Mr. Fan will not have any objection, right?"

Fan Siqi said: "Hasn't this matter been decided by the city? Why should it be postponed?"

Gong Qiwei asked with a smile: "Xingyue's second phase investment has been written clearly in the contract, so why was it delayed?"

Fan Siqi said: "Some problems have occurred within our group, and we have already informed you in advance. After solving the internal problems, we came to Nancy to discuss the second phase of investment matters as soon as possible. We will bear all the losses caused by the delay in funds. Are Mayor Gong satisfied with my explanation?"

Gong Qiwei's smile remained unchanged: "Mr. Fan, today I just agreed to sign the contract, not that the contract has been signed. I am here to explain to you in person and have shown our sincerity. I hope Mr. Fan will give me a few days."

Lin Peipei couldn't help but say, "But our time is precious, we can't waste it endlessly because of your reasons."

Gong Qiwei looked at Lin Peipei with a smile and said, "This is..."

Fan Siqi said: "She is my assistant!" When she said this, she looked at Lin Peipei with some resentment and blamed her for not speaking at this time.

Gong Qiwei smiled and said, "I have seen Singapore's democracy." He stood up and obviously did not continue to explain to Fan Siqi: "Mr. Fan, I have to hold another meeting and I am missing."

Fan Siqi and Lin Peipei returned to their car, and Lin Peipei said angrily: "This Gong Qiwei is so arrogant. He seems to be a special person to fight us. I really don't know what confidence he has? If we stop investment, their deep water port will become a stinky water port."

Fan Siqi said: "It seems that he is confident in his appearance."

Lin Peipei said: "Have you found other sources of funds?"

Fan Siqi shook her head and said, "I don't know!" She thought for a while and said, "Drive to the Nancy Sports Committee."

Fan Siqi's purpose of coming to the Sports Committee was to meet Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang had just heard the project progress report of the new sports center and was calling home now. He would report his safety to his home a few days later. By the way, he invited his mother to come and see. Xu Lihua was a person who didn't like to go out. Even Zhang Yang refused to invite her to come to Nancy for the holiday this year. After all, there were so many people in the family and she couldn't leave. When Zhang Yang heard that his mother was unwilling to come, he could only say that he would go back to Jiangcheng during the Spring Festival.

Fan Siqi knocked on Zhang Yang's door. Zhang Daren put down the phone and looked up to see Fan Siqi and couldn't help laughing: "Ms. Fan!"

Not only Fan Siqi came, but Lin Peipei also followed behind her. Fan Siqi smiled and said, "Director Zhang!" Seeing the scars on Zhang Yang's face, she was a little surprised and said, "What's wrong? Who beat you like this?"

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "The person who dared to hit me has not appeared yet. I drank too much yesterday and fell!" This guy would make excuses.

Lin Peipei felt very funny when she saw Zhang Yang's bruised face. She couldn't help laughing out loud, and her smile was as bright as a flower. Zhang Daren couldn't help but be stunned. This Singaporean girl is also pretty!

When Fan Siqi saw Zhang Yang staring at Lin Peipei, she felt a little uncomfortable. She coughed twice. Only then did the official Zhang realize his incompetence and hurriedly said: "Please sit, please sit!"

Fan Siqi and Lin Peipei came to sit on the sofa, Zhang Yang stood up and took two bottles of mineral water for them, and smiled and said, "Are you here to talk about friendship today or to discuss business?"
