Just after nuclear fusion was successfully achieved, my brother Qi Tongwei committed suicide?

That expression seemed to say something.

I?

He's coming to be the deputy mayor?!

Office of the Secretary of the Hantong Provincial Party Committee.

Sha Ruijin held the phone receiver, his expression incredibly complex.

Surprise, doubt, weighing the options...

"I understand what Team Leader Luo means..."

Sha Ruijin said to Luo Shanhe of the supervisory team on the other end of the phone, "Promoting Comrade Zheng Hanjiang to serve as the vice mayor of Qijiang City, succeeding Comrade Wang Wu... This proposal is unconventional, but it hits the nail on the head."

“Our provincial committee is carefully considering this appointment.”

Say it.

He put down the phone and paced a few steps in the spacious office.

Luo Shanhe has a keen eye; Zheng Hanjiang is indeed the sharpest knife to break the deadlock in Qijiang.

But Zheng Hanjiang was, after all, a scholar, and didn't understand those intricacies.

They might not actually be able to do it very well.

Moreover, such an exceptional promotion, bypassing the usual organizational procedures and being directly nominated by the head of the supervisory group, is unprecedented in Handong and is bound to cause a stir.

After pondering for a long time, Sha Ruijin finally picked up the red telephone that connected directly to the special envoy.

The lid on Qijiang must be lifted, but the way and the force used to lift it need to be controlled by another person.

"Comrade Special Envoy, regarding the candidate for Vice Mayor of Qijiang City, Team Leader Luo Shanhe of the supervisory group has a very important suggestion..."

Sha Ruijin gave a detailed report on Luo Shanhe's opinions and Zheng Hanjiang's situation, and finally cautiously asked, "Comrade Special Envoy, what do you think?"

On the other end of the phone, Mu Chen's voice was calm and expressionless, revealing no emotion whatsoever, containing only three simple words:

"I agree."

There were no explanations, no instructions, only an unquestionable decision.

Sha Ruijin felt a great weight lifted from his shoulders, but at the same time, he also felt an invisible pressure.

Mu Chen nodded, which meant that the Handong Provincial Party Committee had to fully cooperate, and it also meant that there was no room for maneuver in this storm in Qijiang.

Qijiang City Conference Hall.

The atmosphere was solemn and subtle.

When the appointment document from the Provincial Party Committee's Organization Department was read out, announcing that Zheng Hanjiang would serve as the Vice Mayor of Qijiang City, applause broke out from the audience, but it was sparse and somewhat forced, revealing a hint of surprise and doubt.

Zheng Hanjiang sat in his seat, looking somewhat uneasy.

He wasn't wearing a brand-new suit; he was still wearing that slightly worn jacket, only it was exceptionally clean.

His gaze slowly swept across the faces opposite him, some familiar and some unfamiliar.

There was astonishment, disdain, and scrutiny.

But generally speaking, it wasn't a kind look in his eyes.

Instead of a lengthy inaugural address, he stated unequivocally: "I, Zheng Hanjiang, am not good at welcoming or seeing off guests, I am not good at smoothing things over, and I am not afraid of offending people."

"Since I've taken charge of Qijiang's environmental issues, I'll see them through to the end!"
