Family connections: From special recruitment by the county committee to the pinnacle of power

I……

Even Fu Changqing didn't expect that he only wanted to smooth things over, but before he could even finish speaking, he was met with a thunderous attack from Qi Hongchang!

This was the first time Qi Hongchang had ever been so angry since he came to Yutong County.

Moreover, they were furious with him, the soon-to-retire director of the county party committee office.

Fu Changqing was now filled with regret; he shouldn't have helped Lin Weidong smooth things over.

Most importantly, Fu Changqing had no idea that Tan Zhifei had relayed Liu Zhiqiang's exact words to Qi Hongchang without omitting a single one.

Liu Zhiqiang's words were a veiled reference to the people behind Lin Mingyuan.

How could Qi Hongchang not understand?

Most importantly, Tan Zhifei also recounted the previous research report on Longping Town to Qi Hongchang.

There's something wrong with someone who can only list data and write a bunch of numbers being able to sit steadily in the research lab and keep up with the summary report position!

But usually, Qi Hongchang would turn a blind eye, after all, everyone understands the principle that "if the water is too clear, there will be no fish".

The art of managing subordinates should not be too lenient, nor too strict; one must leave everyone some room to survive.

But this time was different. When Tan Zhifei said Liu Zhiqiang's words, almost every word was a slap in the face to Qi Hongchang!

It doesn't matter if you lose face behind closed doors; you can correct it next time. Qi Hongchang won't investigate further.

This time, however, it was a disgrace to the outside world, especially Liu Zhiqiang, who was implying that as long as someone is the son of a member of the Standing Committee or a minister, even if he is a pig, he can be assigned to an important position.

The implications behind this are numerous and complex if you examine them closely.

If Tiancheng Holdings really builds the factory, what will be done if a similar incident occurs again?

By then, the roles of host and guest had changed. It was no longer the county begging Tiancheng Holdings to settle there, but rather Tiancheng Holdings being at the mercy of the county.

At that time, no matter how big the loss, won't Tiancheng Holdings have no choice but to swallow it?

If it really extends to this level, will people still be willing to invest?

Not only will Tiancheng Holdings no longer invest in Yutong County, but the fact that they marked the land for building their factory on forest land has become a laughing stock, and no one will ever invest in or set up a factory in Yutong County again.

Then Qi Hongchang, didn't he waste three years in Yutong County?

If someone completes a full term but achieves zero results in attracting investment, wouldn't that mean they've wasted their youth and received a failing grade?

This is almost the same as digging up Qi Hongchang's ancestral grave.

Therefore, at this time, helping Lin Weidong smooth things over is almost as dangerous as blocking a gun with one's own body.

As soon as Qi Hongchang finished speaking, Jiang Hua also sighed deeply and said, "Secretary Qi's speech just now was very insightful."

"It is true that some of our leaders use connections and back channels to arrange positions for their own children, but this is only the cause, not the effect."

"Every position in the county committee corresponds to a very important responsibility. We cannot allow people who are not worthy of their positions to sit in chairs they should not be in just to save face."

"Actually, when a similar incident happened last time, I already asked Director Wang, who is in charge of personnel, and he said that Comrade Lin Mingyuan was seconded from the subdistrict office to work in our county party committee research office."

"According to the normal procedure, even if one is officially promoted, there should be a probationary period of more than three years. However, the personnel file shows that in less than three months, one was transferred from a public institution position to an administrative position, and the organizational affiliation was also transferred from the street office to the county party committee."

"This is a violation of regulations. I don't know whether Director Fu agreed to accept him out of consideration for Minister Lin, or because Comrade Lin Mingyuan truly had outstanding performance?"

As soon as he said this, Fu Changqing's expression changed drastically!

Why did Jiang Hua suddenly start attacking him?

wrong!

Jiang Hua's target wasn't him, it was Lin Weidong!

A sudden inspiration flashed through Fu Changqing's mind, but...

But how did the board end up hitting him?

Oh no!

For a moment, the conference room was completely silent.

It seemed that even Qi Hongchang was waiting for Fu Changqing's reply.

The thought that he was only two days away from retirement, yet had gotten himself into trouble because of Lin Mingyuan, filled Fu Changqing with remorse!

Damn it, it seems Lin Mingyuan is really toxic!

Thinking of this, Fu Changqing took several deep breaths and said, "Secretary Jiang, it was indeed Minister Lin who spoke to me at the time, and Comrade Lin Mingyuan did not make any mistakes in his work after being seconded to the County Party Committee Office."

"At that time, the research lab was short-staffed, so I approved the paperwork after considering Section Chief Liu's opinion."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hua chuckled a few times, glanced at Lin Weidong, and then fell silent.

It wasn't that Jiang Hua couldn't push Fu Changqing any further, but rather that if they went any deeper, even Zhao Changhe would be implicated. This was the perfect amount of pressure.

Anyway, Fu Changqing is about to step down, and judging from today's situation, Lin Weidong won't be sitting in his chair for much longer either.

Therefore, no matter how much Jiang Hua criticizes, it will not affect him.

Moreover, and most importantly, as early as half a month ago, many cadres who had been in contact with Ge Yingchun, centered around him and Gu Chenglong, had almost formed a united front.

Even without the Lin Mingyuan incident, we still had to find a way to remove Lin Weidong from the Standing Committee.

This person is too dangerous!

You keep urging your son to report to the disciplinary committee. Reporting is fine, but you can't just take pictures randomly, can you?

This kind of enemy lurking among the people must be forced to cut himself off from them.

Otherwise, nobody will get a good night's sleep!

dong dong!

Qi Hongchang tapped the table lightly twice and said coldly, "The issue of Lin Mingyuan will be put on hold for now. The factory land and the Tiancheng Holdings project are the main topics of discussion today!"

Tan Zhifei, who had been sitting at the very end and had not spoken until now, said to Qi Hongchang, "Secretary Qi, Section Chief Xu from the research office has already led a team to conduct a new investigation."

"And he also assured me that he would deliver a research report that would satisfy all parties by tomorrow morning."

"I believe that after this mistake, the Central Town Land Office will definitely cooperate fully with Comrade Xu Hansheng's work. However... it will be tough on Comrade Xu Hansheng. He has projects in Longping Town on one hand and Tiancheng Holdings' projects on the other. Running between the two is indeed a lot of pressure!"

Upon hearing this, Qi Hongchang's expression softened slightly, and he said calmly, "Comrade Xu Hansheng submits the report tomorrow morning, and you should show it to me as soon as possible!"

"The central town must immediately conduct a self-examination, clearly mark the land plots suitable for factory construction, and fully cooperate with Comrade Xu Hansheng's work!"

"Furthermore, some of our leaders also need to conduct self-examination. I hope they can clearly recognize their own problems!"

"Meeting adjourned!"
