Nominal: Hou Liangping blocking the door? He was slapped away!

Liu Changchun's calm words, however, were like a block of ice thrown into boiling oil, causing the conference room, which had just calmed down, to erupt into chaos once again.

Zhao Lichun's hand, which had just picked up the document, froze in mid-air.

Blood vessels were spreading rapidly in the whites of his eyes.

Not over yet?

He's already been pushed to this point, yet Liu Changchun still refuses to back down.

"Governor Liu!"

Chen Huai, the secretary-general of the provincial party committee, could no longer hold back and stood up, slamming his hand on the table.

"Personnel issues in Hexi District are not on today's meeting agenda!"

"Discussing this now is against the rules!"

Liu Changchun didn't even glance at him, but instead turned his gaze to Wu Chunlin, the Minister of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee.

Wu Chunlin understood immediately.

He took another folder out of the black briefcase.

This action left Chen Huai speechless, unable to finish his sentence.

besides?

Just how many documents did Wu Chunlin, that guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, prepare?

"Our organization department also has a preliminary plan regarding the replacement of the Party Secretary of Hexi District."

Wu Chunlin opened the folder and pulled out the top document, a cadre resume.

"Comrade Wang Jian, Deputy Director of the General Office of the Provincial Government."

"This comrade has long been engaged in policy research and supervision of major projects in the provincial government, and has rich practical experience in the implementation of economic plans and policies at the provincial and municipal levels."

"They demonstrated outstanding performance and strong execution capabilities in the coordination of the previous 'Bright Peak' and 'Crescent Lake' projects."

After reading it aloud, Wu Chunlin neatly placed the resume on the table.

Zhao Lichun's temples were throbbing.

Wang Jian!

That was Liu Changchun's chief secretary, who had been with him for over a decade. He was Liu Changchun's most crucial right-hand man in the provincial government system!

Liu Changchun is trying to drive his own nail directly into the core area of ​​Jingzhou!

"Let me add something."

Liu Changchun pressed the microphone button.

"Comrade Wang Jian understands economics and coordination."

"Hexi District has now received a special fund of one billion yuan, which is exactly the time when it needs a strong executor to take charge and lead the way."

"I think it's appropriate to let him take over Comrade He Xia's position."

After Liu Changchun finished speaking, he glanced at Shen Zhong.

Shen Zhong reached out and pushed the microphone in front of him further away.

He remained silent throughout the entire process.

But this action already shows his attitude.

He neither interferes nor opposes.

He captured Lüzhou.

He sold this favor from Hexi District to Liu Changchun.

Zhao Lichun's body went completely limp in the chair.

He knew that the situation was hopeless.

He slowly closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, they were filled with deathly ashes.

Let's vote.

He squeezed out those three words through gritted teeth.

In the meeting room, no one even raised any objections.

Chen Huai, Zhou Guichun, and the others sat there blankly, as if their souls had been taken away.

Liu Changchun was the first to raise his hand.

Then, Tian Guofu, the vice governor and secretary of the discipline inspection commission behind him, also raised his hand.

Next came Shen Zhong's steady and powerful hand.

Four votes.

All eyes turned to Li Dakang.

Li Dakang kept his head bowed very low.

His hands were placed under the table, out of sight of anyone.

After a long while, he spoke in a voice barely audible.

"I... abstain."

This result was expected by many.

After all, the situation in Hexi District is now far beyond his control.

They lost control of the finances and had no say in personnel appointments and removals.

There's no point in arguing any further.

Just then.

Someone no one expected raised their hand.

Gao Yuliang!

This deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, who had always presented himself as a "Tai Chi master" and maintained neutrality between Zhao Lichun and Liu Changchun, actually raised his hand at this moment!

He not only raised his hand, but also smiled and nodded to Liu Changchun and Shen Zhong respectively.

A well-intentioned and clear signal.

Zhao Lichun's pupils dilated in an instant.

If Li Dakang's betrayal was a pain that was expected, then...

So Gao Yuliang's seemingly insignificant vote was the final straw that broke his spirit!

Even he has turned against us?

Zhao Lichun felt dizzy and his vision went black.

Six votes in favor, one abstention.

As a result, there is no need to continue the statistics.

Zhao Lichun stared at the newly released meeting minutes of the personnel appointment on the table, feeling an intense irritation.

He picked up a pen and scribbled his name on the signature line.

Then, he glanced at the mechanical watch on his wrist.

The timing was perfect.

He turned off the microphone's red indicator light.

Meeting adjourned.

After uttering those two cold words, he abruptly stood up from his seat.

He didn't greet anyone.

He didn't even wait for his secretary.

He walked alone straight towards the conference room door.

That figure carried an unprecedented sense of desolation and wretchedness.

Chen Huai and several other members of the Zhao family's standing committee suddenly realized what was happening.

They hurriedly gathered the papers, pens, and documents on the table, disregarding their decorum, and quickly followed Zhao Lichun's retreating figure, leaving the meeting hall.

The whole process resembled a hasty retreat.

Li Dakang did not move.

He waited until almost everyone had left before quietly picking up his thermos.

He didn't go through the main entrance.

Instead, they chose to go around to the exit via the passage on the other side of the conference table.

He deliberately avoided making eye contact with everyone.

Like a wounded lone wolf licking its wounds alone.

Liu Changchun slowly and methodically tidied his briefcase and zipped it up.

He stood up and walked to Shen Zhong's seat.

"Secretary Shen."

He extended his right hand.

Shen Zhong also stood up and briefly shook hands with him.

Two hands, touching and then separating.

But a brand-new political alliance, powerful enough to shake up the entire Han Dong officialdom, was officially established in this handshake.

Shen Zhong and Liu Changchun walked out of the conference room side by side.

The two walked slowly along the carpeted corridor of the provincial party committee building toward the private elevator inside.

Behind them lies the end of an old era.

Before them lay a Handong that was about to be redefined.

……

at the same time.

The building of the Provincial Party Committee's Organization Department was brightly lit.

With the Standing Committee's resolution in place, the entire internal scheduling system, like a tightly wound precision machine, began to operate at high speed.

A young clerk stood in front of the printer with a serious expression.

The machine made a "shush" sound.

A security paper with a gold-stamped header was slowly dispensed.

He Xia's job transfer notice.

"Quick! Get it stamped!"

The supervisor urged.

The officer dared not delay and immediately delivered the still-warm notification to the minister's office.

A heavy steel stamp bearing the national emblem was forcefully stamped onto the end of the paper.

The red inkpad was shocking to the eye.

Subsequently, this notification, which was enough to change the fate of countless people, was quickly put into a kraft paper envelope marked "Top Secret".

The envelope was carefully sealed with sealing wax.

Through the confidential communication network, a dedicated confidential clerk, carrying documents, took a special car and went directly to the Hexi District Committee of Jingzhou City.

Elevator entrance.

Liu Changchun stopped and turned around.

His face wore a genuine smile.

He said to Shen Zhong.

"Secretary Shen, I will arrange for Comrade Wang Jian to handle the handover of work in Hexi District as quickly as possible."

"It will absolutely not delay Comrade He Xia's appointment."
