"Yes, sir. I'll get right on it and make sure you're satisfied!" Cai Xiaofei replied quickly.

Liu Lei stood to the side, looking somewhat reserved and at a loss.

I was still a little nervous when I met the executive vice governor.

Seeing this, Cai Xiaofei stepped forward and instructed, "Liu Lei, from now on we'll all be working under Governor Qi. Let me tell you about Governor Qi's lifestyle and work habits. You must remember them well. Governor Qi hates procrastination and perfunctory work the most. You must be efficient and meticulous in your work."

Liu Lei felt incredibly lucky. "I will definitely remember this. Thank you."

As they walked, they talked in hushed tones. Cai Xiaofei meticulously explained Qi Tongwei's various requirements and taboos to Liu Lei, who listened attentively, afraid of making even the slightest mistake.

Qi Tongwei was quite satisfied with his living environment, but there were still some details that were lacking, so he let Cai Xiaofei and Liu Lei improve it gradually.

When Pei Xiaotong comes to Handong in a while, the No. 6 compound of the Provincial Party Committee will look completely different, giving his wife a surprise.

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

Handong Provincial Government.

Executive meeting room.

The executive meeting of the Handong Provincial Government was held on time, with a solemn yet enthusiastic atmosphere.

Nameplates for the leaders were placed on the table, and the tea had already been brewed, steaming gently.

Liu Changsheng, the governor of Handong Province, was dressed in formal attire and sat in the main seat. His expression was calm and composed as his gaze slowly swept across the entire room.

He exudes an aura of authority without needing to be angry.

Executive Vice Governor Qi Tongwei, Secretary-General of the Provincial Government Zhou Jianbin, Standing Committee Member Vice Governor Feng Liqun, and other provincial government leaders including Vice Governors Zhang Jingshan, Chen Jingfeng, Zhao Yumei, Li Zhaoming, and Han Mingyuan were all present at the meeting.

Everyone sat upright, their expressions focused.

This was Qi Tongwei's first time attending a provincial government executive meeting since taking office. Everyone was secretly observing this young and assertive executive vice governor and wanted to see what he would do next.

There are no secrets at the Standing Committee meeting. The news of Qi Tongwei's confrontation with Sha Ruijin had already reached the ears of all the vice governors, who all felt that Qi Tongwei was too assertive.

In addition, since he was Gao Yuliang's student, everyone felt that Qi Tongwei was not someone to be trifled with, and that they couldn't afford to mess with him.

Liu Changsheng tapped the table lightly, sat up straight, and said: "Comrades, we are holding the provincial government's executive meeting today for two main purposes: first, to welcome Comrade Qi Tongwei to the provincial government and clarify his work assignments."

Second, we will deploy key tasks for the near future.

clap clap clap!

applause.

Currently, there is still a contest at the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee meeting.

However, within the provincial government, Liu Changsheng was the absolute top leader, and his word was law.

He said whatever he wanted to do, whether he proposed it himself or voted by raising his hands, it would definitely pass.

The applause subsided.

Liu Changsheng continued, "Comrades, first of all, on behalf of the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government, I warmly welcome Comrade Qi Tongwei to work at the Handong Provincial Government and become a member of our team."

Comrade Qi Tongwei is young and promising with a solid resume, possessing both grassroots governance experience and provincial leadership experience. He is highly capable and has an excellent work ethic. I believe his arrival will inject new vitality into the work of our Handong Provincial Government and contribute to Handong's high-quality development.

As soon as he finished speaking, enthusiastic applause erupted in the conference room.

Whether you like it or not, you have to applaud.

If you don't clap, it means there's something wrong with you.

Zhou Jianbin clapped with extra force, and Feng Liqun and others also applauded.

Qi Tongwei was also applauding himself, enjoying the applause.

After the applause subsided, Liu Changsheng picked up the documents on the table. "Comrades, now I will read out Comrade Qi Tongwei's work assignments. We should take the initiative to connect and cooperate closely in the future."

The entire room fell silent instantly, and all eyes were on Liu Changsheng.

Liu Changsheng cleared his throat and said, word by word, "Comrade Qi Tongwei is responsible for the routine work of the provincial government, and takes the lead in coordinating the daily operation of the provincial government. He is specifically responsible for the work related to development and reform, emergency management, data management, government service management, government information disclosure, statistics, national defense mobilization, finance, government affairs management, grain and material reserves, energy, counterpart support, economic cooperation, counselors, archives, public security, justice, and petitions."

Liu Changsheng paused for a moment, then continued to read out the units under his supervision and liaison: "I am in charge of the General Office of the Provincial Government, the Provincial Development and Reform Commission, the Provincial Emergency Management Department, the Provincial Government Research Office, the Provincial Government Service Management Office, the Provincial Bureau of Statistics, the Provincial National Defense Office, the Provincial Financial Management Bureau, the Provincial Government Affairs Administration Bureau, the Provincial Grain and Material Reserves Bureau, the Provincial Energy Bureau, and the Provincial Local History Office."

Assisted me in overseeing the Provincial Department of Finance and the Provincial Audit Department.

He is also in charge of the Provincial Department of Justice, the Provincial Bureau of Letters and Calls, and the Provincial Prison Administration Bureau.

Contact the Provincial Fire and Rescue Corps, the Provincial Earthquake Bureau, the Provincial Archives Bureau, the Provincial Power Company, and the Provincial State Security Department, etc.

It covers the core daily work of the provincial government, and its power and influence are self-evident.

The vice governors present all knew perfectly well that Qi Tongwei, as the executive vice governor and with Gao Yuliang backing him up, would definitely be the second most important person in the provincial government after Liu Changsheng. Many of them secretly planned to cultivate a good relationship with Qi Tongwei in the future.

Some people even speculated that Qi Tongwei might become the governor after Liu Changsheng retires.

However, Qi Tongwei's only problem is that he is too young, only in his forties as the executive vice governor.

"Alright, that concludes the reading." Liu Changsheng put down the document and looked at Qi Tongwei. "Comrade Qi Tongwei, now it's your turn to say a few words."

Governor Liu also breathed a sigh of relief.

Oh dear, it's been a long time since I've talked this much. I've been talking non-stop, and it's really tiring. I picked up my cup and gulped down a few mouthfuls of water.

Qi Tongwei slowly stood up, his gaze sweeping across the entire room, and solemnly said: "Thank you for the trust of the central government in sending me to Handong, thank you for the trust of the provincial party committee and government, thank you for Governor Liu's trust and recognition, and thank you all for your welcome."

I feel a great sense of responsibility and a glorious mission.

As I am new to Handong, I still need to become more familiar with the specific work of the Handong Provincial Government.

In the future, we hope that all comrades will continue to provide support and cooperation.

You'll gradually come to understand my work style: I don't do fancy things or superficial work.

I prioritize effectiveness in everything I do, and I will never shirk my responsibilities or slack off on the tasks I must complete.

The areas I oversee are all crucial to the overall development of Handong and the well-being of its people. For example, the Development and Reform Commission is the "master switch" of the economy, emergency management is the "safety line" for the masses, public security and the judiciary are the "stabilizer" of society, and finance is the "blood bank" for development. None of these can be taken lightly.

I will familiarize myself with all tasks as soon as possible and strengthen inter-departmental collaboration.

Under the guidance of the Provincial Party Committee, the Provincial Government, and Governor Liu, we have worked together to do a good job for the Provincial Government, living up to the trust placed in us by the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government, and living up to the expectations of the people of the province…
