Title: Reborn in Handong, Starting with an Investment in Gao Yuliang

Gao Yuliang walked up to Qi Tongwei and patted him on the shoulder.

His tone softened.

"However, you don't need to worry."

"You've made the right move by siding with Liang Cheng now."

"You're young, you need drive, you need opportunities."

"The Liang family is gaining power now. If you follow Liang Cheng, you can obtain a lot of resources."

"This will be good for your development."

"As for me..."

Gao Yuliang smiled faintly, "As your teacher, I'll be there to support you."

"We, master and disciple, are one in the light and one in the dark."

"As long as you diligently improve your abilities and achieve results."

"A great achievement is sure to follow!"

"At that time, whether the Liang family wins or the Zhao family wins, we will be invincible!"

A warm feeling welled up in Qi Tongwei's heart.

His eyes were slightly red, and he bowed deeply to Gao Yuliang.

"Thank you, teacher!"

"Rest assured, I will certainly not let you down!"

"I will definitely make a name for myself in the Jingzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau!"

Gao Yuliang helped Qi Tongwei up and nodded with satisfaction.

"it is good."

"Go."

"Now, let's calm down."

"Observe this grand show carefully."

"I have a feeling."

Gao Yuliang turned his head to look at the gloomy sky outside the window.

"This struggle between Zhao Lichun and Liang Qunfeng will definitely not end so easily."

"The best is yet to come."

......

at the same time.

Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee.

Office Building No. 1.

The air pressure in the secretary's office was so low it was suffocating.

Snapped!

An exquisite blue-and-white porcelain teacup was smashed hard on the ground.

Instantly shattered into pieces.

Tea splashed onto the thick carpet.

Zhao Lichun stood in front of his desk, his chest heaving violently.

He was clutching a copy of the day's morning paper tightly in his hand.

The newspaper was crumpled up by him.

Every word on it felt like a slap in the face, a hard blow to his cheek.

"This is outrageous!"

"This is absolutely outrageous!"

Zhao Lichun gritted his teeth and forced out the sound.

"Liang Qunfeng...you old bastard!"

"You're driving me to the brink of despair!"

"Trial by media? Moral blackmail?"

"You're breaking the rules!"

As a veteran who has been navigating the officialdom for decades.

Zhao Lichun saw through the trickery behind it at a glance.

This is hardly public opinion.

This is clearly an organized and premeditated political offensive!

This is an attempt to pin the label of "condoning crimes committed by family members" on Zhao Lichun!

Normally.

He has a hundred ways to shut these newspapers up.

That arrogant Liang Cheng can pay the price.

But now.

A special task force has been established.

Lu Kangcheng's eyes were fixed on him.

If he were to suppress public opinion at this time, it would be like trying to hide something obvious!

That's defying the provincial party committee!

"call......"

Zhao Lichun forced himself to calm down.

He knew that now was not the time to lose his temper.

Anger solves nothing.

The most urgent task now is to cut losses!

This fire must be extinguished completely before it burns us!

Zhao Lichun's eyes were cold as he pressed the call button on the table.

"Xiao Liu."

"Summon Director Wang of the Municipal Public Security Bureau to come here immediately!"

"Tell him to stop immediately, even if it's during a meeting!"

"If he doesn't appear within ten minutes, make him take off his hat himself!"

The key to resolving this current predicament is to address Zhao Ruilong's issue.

Zhao Lichun was ready to take immediate action.

To avoid any unforeseen complications.

......

The Provincial Party Committee compound.

Office of the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission.

Unlike Zhao Lichun's thunderous fury.

The atmosphere here is one of elation and unparalleled comfort.

Liang Qunfeng sat behind his desk.

He was holding the thermos that had been with him for many years.

Steam rose from the rim of the cup.

A barely concealed smile played on his face.

That was a feeling of genuine comfort.

On the table, those same newspapers were also spread out.

However, in Liang Qunfeng's eyes...

Every single word on it looks so cute.

So pleasing to the eye.

"Okay, okay."

Liang Qunfeng looked at the newspaper articles that denounced "highway robbers" and called for "severe punishment of their protectors."

I couldn't help but hum a Peking Opera tune.

"That was a brilliantly fought battle!"

"It hit Zhao Lichun right where it hurts!"

He knew exactly what was going on.

All of this was orchestrated by his beloved son, Liang Cheng.

He used to think that Liang Cheng was a good-for-nothing and a spoiled brat.

But now it seems...

My son is simply a born political genius!

This is hardly business.

This is clearly using commercial means to supply ammunition for political struggles!

"Poisoning, road rage, sabotage of reforms..."

Liang Qunfeng tapped his fingers lightly on the headline of the newspaper.

A ruthless glint flashed in his eyes.

"Zhao Lichun, oh Zhao Lichun."

"You probably never dreamed you'd be defeated by an eighteen-year-old, right?"

"This time, public opinion has taken hold, which has put a lot of pressure on the task force."

"Let's see how you protect your precious son!"

Liang Qunfeng picked up his teacup and took a delicious sip.

He doesn't need to do anything right now.

All you have to do is sit here and quietly watch Zhao Lichun get overwhelmed with problems.

Watching this fire burn brighter and brighter!

......

The No. 1 building of the Provincial Party Committee.

Office of the Provincial Party Secretary.

The room was filled with smoke.

Provincial Party Secretary Lu Kangcheng sat on the sofa, a cigarette between his fingers, his expression calm.

And opposite him.

Shen Zhongxing, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and Head of the Special Task Force for Crackdown.

At this moment, however, he had a face full of bitterness and resentment.

Shen Zhongxing slammed the newspaper he was holding onto the coffee table.

His tone was filled with strong dissatisfaction and helplessness.

"Secretary Lu, this job is impossible to do!"

"Look at this! Look at what's written in this newspaper!"

"What protective umbrella, what backing?"

"This is clearly a veiled attack! It's an attempt to stir up trouble!"

Shen Zhongxing stood up excitedly and paced back and forth in his office.

"Comrade Liang Qunfeng has gone too far this time!"

"It's obvious he was the one pulling the strings behind the scenes!"

"He's forcing me to resign!"

"He's trying to use public opinion to put pressure on our task force!"

"Now the people of the whole province are watching and waiting for us to catch that so-called big fish."

"If I don't arrest them, it would be considered official collusion and dereliction of duty!"

"We need to catch...this..."

Shen Zhongxing hesitated, his face full of conflict.

As a seasoned veteran of officialdom.

How could anyone not see that this is a battle of gods?

As the head of the special task force, he wielded considerable power.

It's actually just a sandwich cookie!

Caught between Liang Qunfeng and Zhao Lichun, he was being bullied by both sides!

Liang Qunfeng has now stirred up public opinion.

It's like putting him on a hot plate.

Lu Kangcheng looked at the excited Shen Zhongxing.

He gently flicked off the cigarette ash.

His eyes remained calm and unperturbed.

"Comrade ZTE, please calm down."

Lu Kangcheng pointed to the sofa, "Sit down and talk."

Shen Zhongxing sighed and sat down again.

"Secretary Lu, I'm not just complaining."

"The main problem is that this public opinion is too dangerous."

"If left unchecked, it could easily trigger social unrest and affect the overall stability of our Handong."

Lu Kangcheng smiled slightly.

That's the confidence of having control over the whole situation.

"Newspapers are meant to give people a voice."

"It's a good thing for ordinary people to vent their grievances."

"It's better than keeping it to yourself and causing trouble in the end."

Lu Kangcheng looked at Shen Zhongxing and said meaningfully:

"As for what Comrade Liang Qunfeng does, that's his business."

"As the head of the task force, you only need to be responsible to the provincial party committee and to the law."

"Don't overthink the rest."

Shen Zhongxing gave a wry smile.

The leader makes it sound so easy.

All that pressure is on him.

"Secretary Lu, since you put it that way, then I will report on the preliminary investigation results."

Shen Zhongxing's expression turned serious.
