In name only: I will break the chess game in Handong!

Zhao Dagong's tone was very calm, his control was absolute, and he didn't give Zhou Jianjun any chance to breathe or escape. He wanted to use this opportunity to set the tone for Zhou Jianjun.

"Comrade Dagong, why are you so determined to hold this grudge? Truth does indeed become clearer through debate, but what you're doing is clearly just sophistry!"

Zhou Jianjun got angry and slammed his hand on the table.

"Governor Jianjun, don't get agitated. Our team is democratic. If you, as governor, slam your fist on the table like this and criticize Comrade Dagong in such a harsh tone, who will dare to point out any minor flaws you might have in the future?"

I think we should calm down and listen carefully.

Gao Yuliang also spoke up, still telling Zhou Jianjun not to get agitated. Although his words were understated, they inadvertently labeled Zhou Jianjun's character as stubborn and undemocratic.

Taking a deep breath and suppressing his anger, Zhou Jianjun smiled at Zhao Dagong, his eyes almost overflowing with rage, but he still said with a smile, "Comrade Dagong, I accept your criticism and guidance, but I still don't think there's anything wrong with my judgment in choosing and employing people."

Zhao Dagong nodded.

"It's alright, Governor Jianjun, you're the top official in the provincial government, whatever you say goes. I was trembling with fear when you slammed your hand on the table just now. People always say don't anger the top official, I used to think that was nonsense, but now..."

"Comrade Dagong! Please stop being sarcastic!"

"Governor Jianjun! Please also face your own problems!"

The sudden standoff made the entire conference room eerily quiet. Li Dakang and Tian Guofu silently gave Zhao Dagong a thumbs up; they truly admired Zhao Dagong's bravery.

"What's wrong with me? I don't have any problems!"

"Governor Jianjun, if you're wrong, you should admit it. Weren't you the one who patted your chest and guaranteed it at the last meeting?"

Truth becomes clearer through debate, and revolution continues!

"I disagree!"

Zhou Jianjun gave a direct negative answer.

This made Zhao Dagong, who had been calm, smile. He then stood up and said, "Governor Jianjun, I think you not only have a problem with your attitude, but you also need to strengthen your ideological learning."

You disagree? You don't agree that revolution should continue indefinitely? You don't agree that truth becomes clearer through debate?

The great man said that there will be another revolution 10,000 years from now, and it will still be possible to have a great democracy then. If some people get tired of living and start to engage in bureaucracy, they will be beheaded!

What? Does the governor think the great man was wrong?

Pfft, this huge accusation was slapped on Zhou Jianjun's head, and he immediately stood up, pointing his finger at Zhao Dagong, his anger completely uncontrollable.

"You! You! You! Zhao Dagong, you're talking nonsense! You're maliciously twisting facts! You…!"

As they were talking, Zhou Jianjun felt dizzy. Seeing this, Chen Luo calmly said, "Comrade Dagong, Governor Jianjun has high blood pressure. I think we shouldn't agitate him too much."

Zhao Dagong smiled and nodded.

Looking at Zhou Jianjun, he said, "Governor Jianjun, since I'm not feeling well, I can't continue to give you pointers. Let's do it next time, Governor Jianjun. Would you like to rest for a while? I'm afraid you can't hold on, after all, you just..."

Zhou Jianjun felt an indescribable sense of frustration. He, a provincial governor, was being suppressed and beaten by the executive vice governor.

Regardless of whether he bears those labels or not, if this gets out, he, as the provincial governor, will definitely be ridiculed, and even the organization will doubt his abilities.

"No need, Comrade Dagong, I can still hold on!"

I have no problems!

Sha Ruijin watched the scene with a smile; it was so captivating that he forgot the meeting was to discuss how to handle Chen Hai, not to criticize Zhou Jianjun.

"Ahem, comrades, let's get back to the Chen Hai issue. Now that there's a result regarding Chen Hai's abuse of power, let's all speak freely and see how to deal with him. After all, the people are still very concerned about this issue."

The meeting was brought back on track.

Zhao Dagong never intended to defeat Zhou Jianjun in one fell swoop; it was a long-term process.

"Secretary Sha, Governor Jianjun, Secretary Yuliang, comrades, let me say a few words."

As the Party Secretary of Jingzhou, Li Dakang has the most authority to speak on this matter, since Chen Hai is a cadre from Jingzhou.

"Yes, Comrade Dakang, you go ahead and speak."

"Okay, Secretary Sha, Governor Jianjun, Secretary Yuliang, comrades, Chen Hai's mistake this time was abusing his power. What exactly did he do? He used his position as the head of Guangming District to have the Guangming District Civil Affairs Bureau process his divorce."

Of course, Chen Hai also has shortcomings in his personal morality.

I am determined to deal with Chen Hai while preventing major chaos in Guangming District, ensuring that the hundreds of thousands of residents there are not affected in any way.

Li Dakang's words were as good as saying nothing at all. In short, Chen Hai was someone else's business, but don't let him affect Jingzhou.

At this moment, although Zhou Jianjun's anger had not subsided, he still chose to say a few words on Chen Hai's behalf.

"Comrade Dakang's opinion is very important! Although Chen Hai violated discipline, it ultimately did not have a major impact."

While such a comrade may not be suitable to remain as the district head of Guangming District, he could certainly be transferred to another secondary position to continue contributing his talents!

At this moment, Wu Chunlin also spoke up.

"Governor Jianjun, comrades, there are currently no vacancies for deputy director-general level positions in other agencies. The only vacancies are probably in the provincial Department of Justice, which lacks a deputy director-general, the Jingzhou Municipal Procuratorate, which lacks a deputy chief procurator, and the Intermediate People's Court, which lacks a deputy president. These are all vacancies in the political and legal system."

This is quite interesting. Why are there vacancies in the political and legal system? It's because Chen Luo purged a group of people after he came to Handong.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Jianjun's gaze gradually fell on Chen Luo, his meaning clear: he hoped Chen Luo could make an exception.

"Comrade Chen Luo, you are the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission. What do you think? Is Chen Hai suitable to return to work in the political and legal system?"

Chen Luo shook his head without even thinking when Zhou Jianjun asked him the question.

"Governor Jianjun, Chen Hai is rather impulsive. Both the procuratorate and the court require a meticulous work attitude to be competent. I do not agree with transferring Chen Hai to work in these two agencies."

Zhou Jianjun frowned at first, and then discovered the blind spot.

Chen Luo did not say that the Department of Justice was also unacceptable!

He met Chen Luo's gaze and saw the familiar look in Chen Luo's eyes.

This is about exchanging benefits!

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Jianjun nodded to Chen Luo, his meaning clear: he agreed to the exchange.

What is exchanged is not important at the moment; what matters most is that they agree. Chen Luo knows Zhou Jianjun's personality very well.

"However!"

Originally, Tian Guofu, Wu Chunlin, Li Dakang, and even others were prepared to support Chen Luo, but their tone suddenly changed.
