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

Ok?

Upon hearing these words, Qi Hongchang's face immediately darkened, and he looked Jiang Hua up and down, saying, "Secretary Jiang, I don't quite understand what you mean."

Jiang Hua sighed, took out two photos of Lin Mingyuan reporting Xu Hansheng from his pocket, and handed them to Qi Hongchang, saying, "Old Qi, have you seen these two photos?"

Qi Hongchang took the photos, glanced at them, and squinted, saying, "Of course I've seen them. Zhou Kaibin showed them to me on the very first day I got back."

Jiang Hua looked extremely anxious and said, "Old Qi, you...you're too honest."

"You can't just focus on the economy; you also have to be wary of the treacherous people around you."

"As you can see, Xu Hansheng is the main figure in the photos, isn't he? In one of these two photos, the focus is on Ge Yingchun, and in the other, it's on Gu Chenglong!"

"They said they were going to report Xu Hansheng, but judging from the photos Lin Mingyuan showed, if Xu Hansheng were truly corrupt, who would the Discipline Inspection Commission look for first?"

"It has to be Gu Chenglong and Ge Yingchun!"

Qi Hongchang lowered his eyes, staring at the two photos for a long time before saying calmly, "Anything else?"

Jiang Hua took a sip of water before saying thoughtfully, "Ge Yingchun did indeed work on construction projects in our county. She was in charge of planning two high-end residential communities when you first arrived in the county."

"If Xu Hansheng's embezzlement is proven, wouldn't Ge Yingchun's bribery charge also be proven?"

"Lin Hanlong has some connections in the city. Could we use this opportunity to get Ge Yingchun to Qingshan City and force him to admit that he did something similar to Secretary Qi when these two residential areas were built?"

"After all, the planning proposal was put forward by Secretary Qi. Although we all know that you did it in order to prepare for the future success of the county's investment promotion, so that the senior executives of companies that set up factories in the county can settle down in Yong'an County."

"It's not that I'm afraid of bad things happening, it's that I'm afraid of bad people. They don't consider this aspect, they only focus on Ge Yingchun's bribery to frame Secretary Qi. You have no way to defend yourself!"

hiss!

Qi Hongchang raised an eyebrow, a cold glint flashing in his eyes!

Jiang Hua is right. How much of a grudge could there be between Lin Mingyuan and Xu Hansheng?

Is it really necessary to take this to the disciplinary committee?

On the contrary, Lin Weidong is very likely to use the conflict between Lin Mingyuan and Xu Hansheng as a test!

Lin Mingyuan was instructed to send the photos to the county discipline inspection commission under the pretext of reporting Xu Hansheng, to gauge Qi Hongchang's reaction.

If Zhou Kaibin uncovers something during his investigation, it will inevitably implicate Qi Hongchang!

Hehehe...

Thinking of this, Qi Hongchang let out a cold laugh, nodded, and said, "Comrade Jiang, perhaps you're overthinking it?"

Jiang Hua hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Impossible!"

"Secretary Qi, I admire your character. Since we started working together, everything you've done has set a great example for me!"

"Therefore, I utterly despise these despicable people!"

"That bastard Lin Weidong has gone too far! He only dares to act so recklessly because he sees Secretary Qi busy with serious matters every day and has no time for these backstabbing schemes!"

"Think about it, what kind of person is Lin Mingyuan? Does Robin need to treat him to meals every day?"

"They're clearly using Lin Mingyuan as a front for their secret affair!"

"Besides, given Lin Mingyuan's background, he has no experience. And Lin Weidong has no experience either? How could he have made such a huge mistake?"

"Knowing that the data from the town's land office might be inaccurate, Lin Mingyuan didn't even glance at it before writing it in the report?"

"This can only mean that there's something else more important than conducting research, something that forced Lin Mingyuan to go!"

Ok?

Upon hearing this, Qi Hongchang's two sword-like eyebrows almost stood up.

I have to say, Jiang Hua's analytical perspective is absolutely brilliant!

However, there was no way to exploit the loopholes!

As Jiang Hua said, Lin Mingyuan is a greenhorn, doesn't Lin Weidong understand that?

Couldn't he have reminded Lin Mingyuan during the research trip?

Moreover, Lin Mingyuan himself had worked in the research lab for several years. He had never eaten pork, but he had never seen a pig run.

Making such a basic mistake only shows that his mind wasn't on the research work at all!

The more Qi Hongchang thought about it, the more he realized that Jiang Hua was right!

What exactly does Lin Weidong want to do?

Could it be that he actually has some private contact with Lin Hanlong?

If that's the case, then everything Jiang Hua just said is no longer just a simple guess!

Although Lin Weidong won't gain any substantial benefits from getting rid of Qi Hongchang, both the new Party Secretary and Lin Hanlong's connections in Qingshan City will likely reciprocate his favors.

Political resources are a benefit too!

Seeing Qi Hongchang's face grow increasingly cold, Jiang Hua finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Qi Hongchang had finally been persuaded. Once he was convinced, things would be much easier.

Thinking of this, Jiang Hua took a deep breath and said, "Secretary Qi, perhaps this is just my guess. After all, Comrade Lin Weidong and I don't have any direct conflict."

"If Secretary Qi thinks I'm overthinking things, then just pretend I didn't say anything. After all, unity is the most important thing right now."

"Secretary Qi, I've been keeping these words to myself, but I just had to get them out. Please don't take them to heart. Tiancheng Holdings' project is about to be finalized, and you have a lot of work to do, so I won't disturb you any longer."

After saying that, Jiang Hua stood up, shook hands with Qi Hongchang, and quickly walked out of Qi Hongchang's office.

How could an old hand like Jiang Hua not understand the principle that one should not overdo things?

The more he said things like he just said, the more suspicious Qi Hongchang would become of Lin Weidong.

As he himself said, there was no direct conflict between him and Lin Weidong, and they had been working together for several years, so there was really no need for him to go to Qi Hongchang to complain about Lin Weidong.

The more this happened, the more and deeper Qi Hongchang would think about it.

Unfortunately, Lin Mingyuan had been too high-profile lately, frequently visiting restaurants and bars with Robin and others.

One is the Party Secretary of the central town, and the other is a researcher in the research office. Is it necessary for the two of them to frequently have private dinners together?

After Jiang Hua left, Qi Hongchang pondered the meaning behind Jiang Hua's words repeatedly. The more he thought about it, the more suspicious he felt about the behavior of Lin Weidong and his son.

Is this a plan to overthrow the imperial order right under his nose?

But dealing with Lin Weidong like this is too hasty, and there's no reasonable evidence.

After thinking it over, Qi Hongchang picked up the phone and called Zhao Haifeng.

"Secretary Qi, do you have any instructions?"

Zhao Haifeng's voice came through the phone very quickly.

Qi Hongchang said calmly, "Call Xu Hansheng, the head of the research lab, and tell him to come to my office immediately, but don't make a sound!"

Zhao Haifeng quickly nodded and said, "Okay!"

After saying that, Qi Hongchang hung up the phone.

Before long, Xu Hansheng pushed open the door to Qi Hongchang's office, approached Qi Hongchang, and said, "Secretary Qi, did you call me?"

Qi Hongchang nodded calmly and said, "Section Chief Xu, what are your thoughts on the speeches made by the leaders of various bureaus at today's meeting?"
