A man in Handong: living off Zhong Xiaoai

Minister Cheng was momentarily embarrassed. What did this mean?

So, Minister Cheng prepared to kindly remind him: "We're in a meeting, how come you're so distracted by your wife?"

"Tongwei, look how smoothly this meeting is going, and the atmosphere is quite lively. Today's cadre appointment meeting isn't just about us familiar faces; more importantly, it's about letting the newly joined comrades feel the warmth and expectations of the organization. Comrade Zheng Gang and Comrade Lü Jingmin are both elites carefully selected by the Xia Kingdom's top leadership. Their arrival will undoubtedly bring a new atmosphere and momentum to Handong Province."

Therefore, I'm thinking of this arrangement: let Comrade Zheng Gang and Comrade Lü Jingmin also come, get to know everyone, and say a few words. Firstly, this will let them experience the enthusiasm and unity of our Handong Province cadre team; secondly, it will allow them to share their thoughts and plans, giving everyone a preliminary understanding and recognition of them. This way, in the future, everyone can better cooperate and jointly promote the development of Handong Province.

What do you think, Tongwei? Let's give these two new comrades a chance to showcase themselves, and also give our Handong Province cadre team a chance to get to know the new members.”

Upon hearing this, Qi Tongwei exclaimed, "What? What happened to my wife, Zhong Xiaoai?"

When he turned to look at Minister Cheng, he suddenly realized that they were still in a meeting.

Qi Tongwei's expression turned slightly awkward, and he smiled as he looked at Zheng Gang.

"Haha, Minister Cheng is absolutely right! Our meetings are all about getting everyone involved and having a voice, so we can pool our wisdom and get things done together. Comrade Zheng Gang, as the newly appointed Vice Governor of Handong Province in charge of police affairs, you bear a great responsibility."

"Come, come, Comrade Zheng Gang, don't be shy. Tell everyone your thoughts and plans for the future. We're all listening attentively and eagerly awaiting your insights. Rest assured, with everyone's support, you'll definitely make a difference in police work and contribute to the peace and stability of Handong!"

Upon hearing Qi Tongwei's words, enthusiastic applause erupted, and everyone's attention turned to Zheng Gang...

Only Zhong Xiaoai covered her mouth and laughed. Qi Tongwei looked at his wife somewhat awkwardly, not expecting that he had just been staring at Zhong Xiaoai in a daze again.

Zheng Gang had a big smile on his face. He glanced at Minister Cheng, who also had a smile on his face, and then turned to Qi Tongwei.

"Thank you, Minister Cheng and Governor Qi. I, Zheng Gang, will always remember your trust and kindness. To have the opportunity to become the Vice Governor in charge of police work in Handong Province is both an honor and a responsibility. I know that police work is related to social stability and the well-being of everyone, and the responsibility is heavier than Mount Tai."

I, Zheng Gang, have served in the police force for many years. While I wouldn't claim to have extensive experience, I have certainly accumulated some practical experience and problem-solving methods. Now, standing in this new position, I will dedicate myself fully to integrating my years of police work experience into the police work of Handong Province. My goal is not only to maintain public order, but also to build a safe and secure living environment for everyone in Handong Province.

I pledge that I will uphold the principles of fairness and integrity, strictly enforce the law, provide enthusiastic service, and strive to improve the level and efficiency of police work in Handong Province. I believe that under the leadership of Minister Cheng and Governor Qi, and with the joint efforts of all police officers in the province, we will certainly be able to do a better job in the 1.7 policing work in Handong Province, safeguarding the prosperity and development of Handong. Please rest assured, leaders and colleagues, I will certainly live up to your trust and fulfill my mission!

After Zheng Gang finished speaking, the audience erupted in enthusiastic applause once again.

Who would have thought that just a short time ago, Zheng Gang's father-in-law, He Dongfeng, had been frightened to death in this very conference room, and a few days later, Zheng Gang himself came to this very conference room and became the vice governor in charge of police affairs in Handong Province.

This business used to be managed personally by Qi Tongwei.

Zheng Gang was someone Qi Tongwei had personally promoted from Jingzhou City. Everyone understood that this meant that the police force of Handong Province would still be under Qi Tongwei's control in the future.

Chapter 516 I'm here to announce a few appointment and removal decisions

After the applause subsided, the scene fell silent again. Everyone looked at Qi Tongwei, the then governor of Handong Province, with surprise. He was looking at Zhong Xiaoai with a smile on his face and the corners of his mouth turned up.

Zhong Xiaoai noticed the strange scene at the scene, where everyone was waiting for Qi Tongwei to speak and give instructions for the next step.

Even Minister Cheng, the head of the Organization Department of the entire Xia Kingdom who came from Kyoto, a high-ranking official at the deputy ministerial level, was waiting for Qi Tongwei's reaction.

Helpless, Zhong Xiaoai quickly pointed to the crowd present.

However, Qi Tongwei seemed confused, unaware that this was his wife giving him some instructions.

At this moment, Minister Cheng looked helpless again. Why was he attracted to Zhong Xiaoai again? You were still presiding over the leadership meeting of the entire Handong Province!

Minister Cheng then kindly offered his reminder.

"Governor Tongwei, our meeting is progressing very smoothly and the atmosphere is quite lively. Next, shouldn't it be Comrade Lü Jingmin's turn to speak? As the newly appointed Vice Governor in charge of the economy, he must have many unique insights and plans for the economic development of Handong Province. Let him speak as well, share his thoughts with everyone, and we can discuss and brainstorm together for the future development of Handong Province. What do you think, Tongwei?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Tongwei realized that Zhong Xiaoai was reminding him of this!

Zhong Xiaoai couldn't hold it in any longer and covered her mouth, laughing out loud.

Qi Tongwei was speechless. How could he have been so distracted? It must be because he hadn't been getting enough rest lately from going for drives with Zhong Xiaoai.

It must be because I consumed too much of the 98-octane gasoline in the fuel depot, which caused my mental state to deteriorate.

Hmm! It can't be for any other reason, like Zhong Xiaoai bewitching me or something, right? That's absolutely impossible!

"Haha, Minister Cheng, you've really hit the nail on the head! That's exactly what I was thinking. Our next agenda item should naturally be to invite Comrade Lü Jingmin to make his appearance. Comrade Lü Jingmin, although in everyone's impression he's the former director of our Handong Provincial Safety Supervision Bureau, don't forget, he's an all-rounder. During his years at the Safety Supervision Bureau, he not only kept a tight rein on production safety, but also frequently went deep into the front lines of enterprises, having a clear understanding of our province's economic pulse. This position of vice governor in charge of the economy is practically tailor-made for him, perfectly suited! Come on, Comrade Lü Jingmin, stop hiding it, quickly tell everyone about him!"

No one at the scene dared to object to Qi Tongwei staring blankly at Zhong Xiaoai.

The prince consort and the princess are so loving, who would dare to say a word against it?

However, isn't it a bit of an exaggeration to say that Lu Jingmin, the director of the Safety Supervision Bureau of Handong Province, knows anything about the economy of Handong Province?

However, there was nothing anyone could do. Since Governor Qi had already said so, they could only listen to him.

"Oh my, Minister Cheng, Governor Qi, you two are really giving me, Lü Jingmin, a tremendous amount of face! I won't say much more about my gratitude; I'll remember it all. Just like Governor Qi mentioned, when I was the director of the Safety Supervision Bureau of Handong Province, I did have quite a few dealings with those business owners. Although I was mainly focused on safety at the time, as we talked, economic matters naturally came to my ears, and I got a general idea of ​​things."

So, now that I've been appointed as the vice governor in charge of the economy, I feel both nervous and excited. Nervous because this is no small responsibility; excited because I finally have the opportunity to put my experience from the Safety Supervision Bureau to good use! Haha! Please rest assured, leaders, and please rest assured, people of the whole province, I, Lü Jingmin, will do my utmost to ensure the economic work of Handong Province flourishes and lives up to expectations!

As soon as Lü Jingmin finished speaking, no matter how many people in the audience disagreed, they still had to give him the applause he deserved.

Anyway, whatever Qi Tongwei says goes, and if Lü Jingmin says he understands economics, then he does.

At this moment, while Lü Jingmin was saying these two sentences, Qi Tongwei turned his gaze to Zhong Xiaoai again.

However, this time Qi Tongwei did not lose focus. After Lü Jingmin finished speaking, he immediately looked at everyone present.

"Haha, Comrade Jingmin, what you just said was full of energy and enthusiasm, very good! Today is indeed a great day for our Handong Province, one that will be recorded in history. Minister Cheng here solemnly announced the decision to appoint Comrades Zheng Gang and Lü Jingmin as vice governors. This is the result of careful consideration and meticulous planning by our provincial party committee and government."

This is not only good news for Comrades Zheng Gang and Jing Min, marking a significant milestone in their careers; it's also a great boon for all cadres in Handong Province! It means that our leadership team in Handong Province is more robust and stronger, allowing us to move forward more steadily and further! Therefore, everyone should be on high alert, following the two newly appointed vice governors, to contribute to the prosperity and development of Handong Province and create a brilliant future together!

After Qi Tongwei finished speaking, he paused for a moment, and then enthusiastic applause immediately broke out in the room.

Of course, Qi Tongwei paused at 680 not to wait for applause, but because he had an important decision to announce.

As everyone watched, Qi Tongwei pulled out a few sheets of paper from his files and continued speaking.

"Taking advantage of this rare opportunity today, and with Minister Cheng here to serve as a fair and impartial witness, I, Qi Tongwei, as the governor of Handong Province, have several important decisions regarding the appointment and removal of cadres that I would like to formally announce here."

Our Handong Province has always valued talent and prioritized practical work. This personnel adjustment was made based on this principle, after extensive consideration and comprehensive evaluation. Some comrades will be taking on new leadership positions and shouldering greater responsibilities; others will be reassigned to positions more suitable for them to play a greater role.

I will have the relevant departments release the detailed appointment and removal documents later. However, I want to emphasize here that whoever is promoted or demoted is acting in accordance with organizational needs and for the overall benefit of Handong Province. I hope everyone can understand this correctly, actively support this decision, and, more importantly, remain true to their original aspirations and keep their mission in mind in their new positions, contributing their strength to the development of Handong Province!

Minister Cheng, don't you think so? Haha, alright, let's get down to business and announce the personnel appointments and removals this time!

Chapter 517 Another member of the Qi Family Gang

Upon hearing Qi Tongwei's words, everyone present became tense, wondering what kind of personnel appointments and removals Qi Tongwei would announce next.

As everyone could see, Minister Cheng of the Organization Department of Xia State nodded with a smile after hearing Qi Tongwei's words.

Everyone understood that Minister Cheng's current attitude represented the absolute support of the Xia Kingdom's top leadership for Qi Tongwei.

In other words, Qi Tongwei's announcement of this personnel appointment and removal in front of Minister Cheng was undoubtedly a way of telling everyone once again that Qi Tongwei's adjustments to the cadres of Handong Province had the absolute support of the Xia Kingdom's top leadership.

All the vice governors present wanted to know which departments Qi Tongwei was going to oversee and whose people he was going to remove from the cadre positions he was going to adjust.

Qi Tongwei looked at the people present and then continued.

"Comrades, first of all, let me talk about the situation at the Handong Provincial Police Department. As you all know, Comrade Zheng Gang, the former Executive Deputy Director, is one of the best in our police system. Recently, due to his outstanding work performance, he has been promoted to Vice Governor in charge of police affairs. This is great news, and we should applaud Comrade Zheng Gang and congratulate him on his promotion!"

However, now that Comrade Zheng Gang has taken the position, someone needs to take over the Executive Deputy Director-General position he left behind. This position is important, and we need to find a reliable and capable comrade to fill it.

Therefore, after careful consideration by the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government, and after extensive consultation, I hereby formally announce that Comrade Jiang Guangming, the former Deputy Director of the Police Department of Handong Province, will succeed him as the Executive Deputy Director.

Comrade Jiang Guangming is someone everyone knows well. He's capable, skilled, and upright. I'm confident in his ability to take over this position, and I believe everyone agrees. I hope that Comrade Jiang Guangming will continue to uphold the glorious traditions of our Handong police system in his new role and make new contributions to the peace and stability of Handong.

Upon hearing that Zheng had just been promoted to vice governor, and that Qi Tongwei had found someone to take over his former position, everyone was astonished.

Zhang Baoming broke out in a cold sweat. The position of deputy director of the provincial police department had just become vacant, and Qi Tongwei had someone take it over. Would Qi Tongwei also announce the position of director of the safety supervision bureau under him today?

If another member of the Qi family gang comes along, my job will be really difficult!

Li Hui's expression was also somewhat grim. The director of the Agriculture Department under him had just stepped down, and he wondered if someone else would be taking over that position soon. He wondered if it would be the person he had recommended to Qi Tongwei before.

Looking at the tense crowd, Zhong Xiaoai wasn't nervous at all, because the decisions regarding the appointment and removal of these cadres were the result of discussions between her and Qi Tongwei.

Zhong Xiaoai no longer wanted to copy anything to practice calligraphy. She also wanted to hear and see how the scene would react after her husband, Qi Tongwei, announced the appointment decisions for these cadres.

So, Zhong Xiaoai sat idly in the audience, twirling her pen and watching the changes in the crowd.

At this point, Qi Tongwei continued.

"Comrades, Minister Cheng just announced some good news: Comrade Lü Jingmin, the former director of the Safety Supervision Bureau of Handong Province, has been officially appointed as the vice governor in charge of the economy due to his outstanding work performance. This is a great event for Handong Province, and we should give Comrade Lü Jingmin the warmest applause and congratulate him on his promotion!"

However, with Comrade Lü Jingmin's promotion, the position of Director of the Safety Supervision Bureau he left behind needs to be filled. This is no easy task; we need to find someone who understands both the business and management.

Therefore, after careful consideration by the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government, and after extensive consultation with all parties, I hereby formally announce that Comrade Han Ming, former Deputy Director of the Police Department of Handong Province, has been promoted to Director of the Safety Supervision Bureau of Handong Province.

Comrade Han Ming, as everyone knows, has strong professional skills and rich management experience. I have great confidence in appointing him to take over this position, and I believe everyone agrees. I hope that Comrade Han Ming will continue to carry forward the fine traditions of our Handong cadres in his new role and contribute his strength to Handong's safe production and economic development!

Upon hearing this, Zhang Baoming's eyes widened instantly. Wasn't this Comrade Han Ming a long-time member of the police force?

What does his previous strong professional skills have to do with his current position as the director of the Handong Provincial Safety Supervision Bureau?

It's over! It really is someone from the Qi family gang! We're finished!

After arriving in Handong, he sidelined Lu Jingmin, the former director of the Handong Provincial Safety Supervision Bureau, and made him the vice governor of Handong Province.

Now look what's happened. The former member of the Qi family faction was promoted to vice governor, and then another member of the Qi family faction was sent to him.

When Zhong Xiaoai saw Zhang Baoming's surprised expression, she found it quite amusing and covered her mouth to laugh.

Qi Tongwei glanced at Zhong Xiaoai with a smile, then looked at Li Hui, who looked nervous.

"Comrades, some time ago, Vice Governor Li Hui, who is in charge of agriculture, came to me and handed me a report about the upcoming retirement of the Director of the Agriculture Department of Handong Province. This is no small matter; agriculture is the foundation of the nation, and agriculture in Handong is of paramount importance."

After reading the report, I felt a heavy weight in my heart. I immediately started thinking that I needed to find a reliable and capable person to take over the position of director. This is not something that can be done by just picking someone to sit in the chair; it has to be someone who can actually get things done and achieve results.

After careful consideration and extensive consultation with various parties, I have finally decided to promote Comrade Liu Changyong, the former Deputy Director of the Department of Justice of Handong Province, to the position of Director of the Department of Agriculture of Handong Province. Comrade Liu Changyong is a familiar figure to everyone; his work in the Department of Justice is widely recognized—he is highly skilled, has a strong work ethic, and is a capable leader.

I hope that after Comrade Liu Changyong arrives at the Department of Agriculture, he can quickly adapt to his new role and take charge of agricultural work in Handong, so that everyone can see tangible results. That's settled then. Everyone should relay this message to their respective departments to ensure a smooth transition and prevent any mishaps.

Upon hearing the appointment, Li Hui gasped in shock. What was going on?!

Chapter 518 Governor Qi is truly a man of great courage!

Li Hui couldn't understand how they could allow the deputy director of the Justice Department of Handong Province to become the director of their own Agriculture Department.

I've already given the list of recommendations to Qi Tongwei, so it seems they really didn't take it.

Li Hui had heard of Liu Changyong before. It seemed that he was the father of one of Qi Tongwei's confidantes, and that Qi Tongwei had been promoted all the way up from the grassroots level in the local area.

Sigh! From now on, I'll be working with the Qi family gang, this job won't be easy.

Qi Tongwei glanced at Li Hui, but he didn't care whether Li Hui was satisfied or not, and continued to announce while holding the documents in his hand.

Comrades, the next item we will discuss is the fourth appointment decision, concerning the crucial position of Director of the Handong Provincial Tax Bureau. Given the current vacancy of the position of Vice Governor in charge of finance, this work has been personally overseen by me, as Governor. A few days ago, Comrade Wu Xiaoyu, Director of the Handong Provincial Tax Bureau, submitted a report to me stating that he requested early retirement due to health reasons.

Here, I want to emphasize that the physical health of our cadres is the foundation for all our work. After careful consideration, I have decided to approve Comrade Wu Xiaoyu's request, and I hope he can rest assured and recover soon. Comrade Wu Xiaoyu's retirement means that the position of Director of the Tax Bureau has become vacant, an important position that we need to fill quickly.

After careful consideration and comprehensive evaluation of multiple candidates, I have decided to appoint Comrade Feng Liang, the Vice Mayor of Jinghai City in charge of police affairs and concurrently the Chief of the Jinghai City Police Bureau, as the Director of the Handong Provincial Tax Bureau. Comrade Feng Liang has demonstrated outstanding leadership and a rigorous work ethic in his police work, and I believe he can bring these abilities to his tax work, propelling Handong Province's tax work to a new level.

This decision is effective immediately. We hope all comrades will give their full support to ensure a smooth handover and jointly safeguard the stable economic and social development of Handong Province.

Upon hearing this, everyone realized that Feng Liang was from the police force of Handong Province.
