Name: The Holy Son of the Energy Department Enters Handong

Sha Ruijin never imagined that this day would come; he had shot himself in the foot.

The original plan was to pass and vote on the solution to the Dafeng Factory project at the provincial party committee standing committee meeting.

It was all to improve the lives of the people at Dafeng Factory and to bring a smile to Chen Yanshi's face.

Who would have thought that as the provincial party secretary, he couldn't even control the pace of the meeting? He was interrupted after only a few words at the beginning of the meeting.

The original intention of using the meeting to gain some benefits for Dafeng Factory was completely wrong.

He couldn't do what he wanted to do at all; as the provincial party secretary, he had absolutely no say in this meeting.

In other words, he has no say in the provincial party committee meetings, so what's the difference between him, the provincial party secretary, and air?

"Why is that?"

"That's right, that's right!!"

Sha Ruijin pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized that it was because he no longer had the authority to make personnel decisions.

The position of the head of the organization department does not belong to him. Although he, as the provincial party secretary, naturally has the power to manage personnel, the head of the organization department is not one of his own, so how much of his personnel power can he exercise?

Although Sha Ruijin holds a very high position in personnel matters, it also depends on whether the Minister of the Organization Department cooperates with him. Currently, the Minister of the Organization Department is an unknown candidate.

He naturally didn't have much say at the provincial party committee meetings because his personnel power was unstable and he couldn't inspire demand or fear in others.

People will only listen to you if they want something from you. You have nothing now, yet you expect others to listen to you.

How is that possible?

Sha Ruijin realized that he had completely misjudged the situation by holding this meeting.

If your own foundation is unstable, holding more meetings will be of little use and will ultimately backfire.

Sha Ruijin was deep in thought, and Zhao Xia wouldn't give him many chances.

He tapped the table, took a deep breath, and solemnly said:

"Comrades, I think the matter concerning the Dafeng Factory task force must be thoroughly addressed!"

Dafeng Factory and Shanshui Group both want to seize state-owned assets, they both want land and they both want money. How can we agree to such things!

Once there's one, there's bound to be two, and once there's two, there are countless imitators.

How can this be allowed? If this precedent is broken in our Handong Province, our province will soon become a laughing stock nationwide.

Zhao Xia spoke righteously, completely ignoring Sha Ruijin's unpleasant expression.

Who told Old Chen to use his seniority to overpower his father back then?

Zhao Xia has never forgotten this grudge.

Sha Ruijin now wants to curry favor with Chen Yanshi and his adoptive fathers, but Zhao Xia is the first to object.

There's no way around it; this is a problematic issue, and I have to take it seriously and address it properly from every angle.

Don't forget, he's also the deputy class monitor for the meeting. If something happens, he might also be held responsible.

Moreover, it concerns the contradictions encountered in development, so he bears even greater responsibility for his growth.

"Comrades, the problem has arisen, and we must resolve it quickly. If we become a laughing stock nationwide, and the joke spreads both domestically and internationally, our Handong Province will be the first to be punished!" Huang Zhentian immediately followed suit, seeing that his boss had spoken, he naturally had no obligation to stop.

His tone was firm and resolute, carrying a hint of menace.

He was telling everyone that if things went wrong, everyone present at the meeting would be held responsible.

After hearing what he said, some people began to regret why they had attended the meeting. They should have made an excuse to ask for leave. The author of this meeting should have taken the blame.

Some neutral parties who didn't want to speak and wanted to bury their heads in the sand to get through the meeting could no longer pretend to be ostriches.

All they could do was stand up and blindly agree with Huang Zhentian.

"Yes, yes, if we do this well, we'll be a model; if we don't, and it gets exposed by some media reporters, we'll be accused of cooperating with workers to embezzle state-owned assets."

"Yes, we must make this as exemplary as possible, and we must do it quickly!"

"It's really embarrassing to keep going like this for so long. Secretary Yuliang, you're the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, you have to take responsibility!"

"That's right, Secretary Yuliang, you have to handle this matter well. If you don't handle it well, Secretary Yuliang, the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission will be the first person responsible!" Li Dakang seized the opportunity to launch an attack on Gao Yuliang.

Li Dakang no longer hides his true feelings about the Han University gang.

You caused my wife and children to break apart, you paralyzed my whole body, and you made me hopeless in my career advancement. How could I, Li Dakang, possibly be on good terms with you, Gao Yuliang!

"Yes, yes, I will definitely take responsibility for this matter as the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission. Secretary Sha, what do you say?" Gao Yuliang nodded repeatedly, showing no sign of being tricked or provoked. Instead, he steered the conversation towards Sha Ruijin.

Gao Yuliang had already figured out Sha Ruijin's thoughts; he just wanted to help Chen Yanshi, his adoptive parents.

It's unclear whether this was a case of Sha Ruijin having a change of heart or trying to abuse his power for personal gain.

In short, with a tall guy standing in front of him, Gao Yuliang remained completely calm.

If you, Li Dakang, have the guts, go and bombard Sha Ruijin! What are you talking to me, Gao Yuliang?!

Sha Ruijin raised an eyebrow when he saw Gao Yuliang bring up the topic back to him.

You've all said your piece, what else can I do?

If they don't handle things fairly, or continue to try to smooth things over, I'll be branded with shame. If I say something I shouldn't have, will I have to leave get out of class tomorrow and face criticism?

Having been in Handong for so many days, I haven't achieved anything; besides conducting research, I've just been cleaning up Hou Liangping's messes.

There are growing discontent with him from above, and now he's making me continue to make mistakes. He'll really be fired! Don't think that I, the provincial party secretary, have unlimited health!

Although Ruijin was on the verge of tears, she glared fiercely at Gao Yuliang, only to see Gao Yuliang still leisurely and seemingly full of confidence.

What Sha Ruijin wanted to say was, "I'm not tall anymore."

We can't hold on any longer, we absolutely can't hold on!

The provincial party committee meeting suddenly fell silent, and everyone turned their gaze to Sha Ruijin.

We're just waiting for him to make a decision.

Upon seeing this, Sha Ruijin raised an eyebrow. Was he being asked to choose between life and death?

Once a serious investigation is initiated, Chen Yanshi will undoubtedly be implicated, and Dafeng Factory will be beyond saving.

But if he chooses it, he might be dismissed immediately.

Sha Ruijin slowly closed his eyes, then suddenly opened them three seconds later.

His eyes held a resolute glint, a stark contrast to his previous indecisiveness.

"Secretary Yuliang, Secretary Guofu, and all comrades, we must take this matter seriously and absolutely cannot allow the embezzlement of state-owned assets to happen!"

As the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission and the secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, you bear extremely important responsibilities in this matter.

The special task force for Dafeng Factory consists of the two of you. You must resolve this matter completely within a week. Both the Discipline Inspection Commission and the Political and Legal Affairs Commission must fully cooperate and do their utmost to overcome the difficulties.

We must resolve the problem completely and leave absolutely no historical issues behind!

"I'm the nominal leader of the Dafeng Factory task force, and you two are the deputy leaders. You must resolve this matter thoroughly!"

Sha Ruijin said firmly and resolutely.

The voice was firm and resolute.

There's no other way; things have come to this point, and I have to consider my future.

As for Chen Yanshi, let's put the matter of Dafeng Factory aside for now. There's no other way; I can't just resign right away.

She could still try to win back her adoptive father's favor, but if she made a mistake in this matter, it would all be over.
