Fang Zhicheng understood what Song Wendi meant. He had different ideas from Su Mo. Su Mo's method of training Fang Zhicheng was the old-fashioned way of promoting cadres in the organizational system, which only focused on resumes and not on practice. There were a lot of brilliant resumes, but they did not reflect the value of individuals to society. In Song Wendi's view, Fang Zhicheng was a practical talent and must be placed at the grassroots level to let him do practical work so as not to waste his good time.
It takes nine hours to get from Yanjing to Qiongjin by train. As soon as I stepped out of the car and put away my suitcase, I saw Shang Yan standing quietly on the platform. Compared with a year ago, Shang Yan was much thinner, her appearance was more fashionable and feminine.
She had light pink lipstick on her lips, a red woolen long coat on her upper body, black tight leather pants on her lower body, and light white leather boots on her upper body, which was a bright sight.
It is said that women wither as they age, but Fang Zhicheng does not think so. He thinks that excellent women will add a lot of mysterious flavor to themselves as time and experience change.
After a year of changes, Shang Yan has become the deputy director of the High-tech Industry Department of the Huainan Provincial Development and Reform Commission, and Zhang Xiaoliang has become the director of the High-tech Industry Department.
Shang Yan took the suitcase from Fang Zhicheng and saw him smiling and waving at the woman behind him who was carrying his nephew. She asked in confusion, "Boss, is this your friend?"
Although Fang Zhicheng is no longer Shang Yan's boss, she still habitually calls Fang Zhicheng "boss", which has become a habit.
Fang Zhicheng shook his head and said with a smile: "It was just a chance encounter."
Shang Yan could see the surprise in the eyes of the pretty woman, and laughed softly, "Boss, you haven't changed much, you are still as popular with women as ever."
Fang Zhicheng smiled at Shang Yan and followed her out of the platform. The pretty woman looked at Fang Zhicheng's back with flickering eyes. She could tell from Fang Zhicheng's clothes that he was a man of high status. Shang Yan's attitude towards Fang Zhicheng further confirmed her thoughts.
Shang Yan bought a white Nissan Sunny, which she had not bought for long, and the "internship" sign on the back had not been removed. After getting in the car, Shang Yan kept talking, introducing to Fang Zhicheng the changes in Qiongjin and Hanzhou over the past year. In fact, a year is not a long time, but under Shang Yan's description, it seems to be full of twists and turns.
First of all, let's talk about the situation in Hanzhou. The second phase of the Internet Industry Base project has already started. The Hanzhou Municipal Government has spent a lot of energy to promote investment, but the effect is very general. Shang Yan's point of view is that although Zang Yi is aware of the importance of the Internet industry, he is still a little slow, and cannot compare with Fang Zhicheng's far-sighted, vigorous and unstoppable means.
As for the changes in Qiongjin, it seems confusing. Song Wendi, as the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, concurrently serves as the secretary of the Qiongjin Municipal Party Committee, but most of his energy has been transferred to the province. The former mayor of Qiongjin had problems at the end of last year, and the current acting mayor was arranged by Wen Jinglong, who gradually took control of the situation in Qiongjin. Therefore, Song Wendi's current situation is a little awkward. His control over Qiongjin is no longer as strong as before, and his control over party affairs is also constrained.
However, in order to reach the position of a provincial governor, one must go through these steps. Song Wendi now needs to be patient and wait for the opportunity to come so that he can take advantage of it.
There was a traffic light at the fork in the road ahead, and the car slowly stopped. Fang Zhicheng interrupted Shang Yan and said with a smile, "You've told me so much, but I want to know if you've resolved your personal situation?"
Shang Yan was slightly startled, her face flushed, she glanced at Fang Zhicheng out of the corner of her eye, and said, "I've been on many blind dates, but I still don't like you."
Fang Zhicheng sighed and said, "Don't make excuses for this matter. I asked Xiaoliang to arrange many outstanding young men for you. They are good-looking, well-off, and have good character. But you keep refusing. It's really unacceptable."
When Shang Yan saw the red light, he stepped on the accelerator with great force, so the car jolted on the road several times before returning to normal.
Fang Zhicheng did not continue to question Shang Yan, and a helpless smile appeared on his lips. He could be said to have proved the saying "The emperor is not anxious, but the eunuchs are anxious to death."
When he returned to his home in Qiongjin, Shang Yan had already cleaned it for him, so the house was clean and tidy. Fang Zhicheng sat on the sofa and called Ning Qiangwei first. Ning Qiangwei answered the call quickly and asked with a smile, "Are you there?"
Fang Zhicheng said relaxedly: "We just arrived. How about you? When will you come?"
Ning Qiangwei sighed and said, "It's not clear yet. It depends on the organization's arrangements."
Fang Zhicheng sighed and said with a wry smile, "Marrying a female general is really troublesome. We are together less and apart more. Our plan to have a baby has not been successful yet. Yesterday on the train, your eldest sister scolded me for a while."
Ning Qiangwei blushed and said, "I'm busy. I'll talk to you when I have time."
Fang Zhicheng listened to the busy tone of the phone, put the phone aside, turned on the TV, turned to the provincial news channel, and tried to figure out the current movements of the top leaders in Huainan from the news events.
Chapter 0918: Excellent Reputation Wang Xianren
Fang Zhicheng's appointment as a temporary official will not be announced for some time, so his trip to Huainan was a private one. After taking a shower at home, Fang Zhicheng called Sui Qi. Sui Qi is still the deputy mayor in charge of education, but her position is rather awkward, especially after Wang Guoyue took office, her work direction is more inclined to running projects.
This is also the common feature of all the cadres sent down to the Ministry of Education. Because they know that she has connections in the Ministry of Education, they will focus on tapping the Ministry of Education's various special funds. So if Fang Zhicheng takes office, I am afraid that he will be assigned more to smooth the relationship with the National Development and Reform Commission system.
Sui Qi was not surprised to receive Fang Zhicheng's call, because the news that she was coming to Caoyao was no secret. As the strength of the Su faction grew, Fang Zhicheng's value also rose, and he was ranked third on the list of 100 young people, right next to Wang Guoyue. Therefore, insiders were very concerned about Fang Zhicheng's temporary posting in Caoyao City.
More than a year has passed, and Sui Qi is still unmarried, a typical leftover woman. Fang Zhicheng gets along with her and vaguely feels her affection for him, but deliberately keeps a distance, after all, the Sui family and the Su family had some bad fate in the previous life. It's okay to be friends, but if you take another step forward, it will be dangerous.
Sui Qi was still correcting documents in the office. Under her arrangement, the Caoyao education system had basically completed its preparation, especially several national universities with strong professionalism in the city, which were given fresh vitality. For example, universities such as the University of Mining and Technology and the University of Geology broke through with their professionalism and made a step forward in the ranking of comprehensive schools in the country.
Sui Qi smiled and said, "Busy man, how come you have time to call me?"
Fang Zhicheng's eyes fell on the LCD TV screen. He lay lazily and relaxed on the leather sofa, with his legs on the coffee table. He smiled and said, "Mayor Sui, are you mocking me? It's fine if others don't know, but don't you know that I've been doing nothing for the past year?"
Sui Qi stretched himself lazily, sighed softly, and said, "I envy you! Cao Yao has a lot of work to do now, and I'm overwhelmed. I'm very happy that you came to Cao Yao, at least you can help me."
Fang Zhicheng could tell that Sui Qi was not being flattering or modest, so he smiled bitterly and said, "I called because I wanted you, my old classmate, to show me the way. I heard that the officials in Cao Yao are particularly xenophobic. When Wang Guoyue first took office, it took him a lot of twists and turns to gain control. I wonder if it's true or not?"
Sui Qi nodded, frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Caoyao City is different from other places. The local forces are very powerful and deeply rooted. When you arrive, you will know without me explaining anything."
Caoyao has been a military stronghold in China since ancient times. Even now, troops are stationed there, so military-industrial enterprises have become the main economic pillar of the area. However, due to the particularly complex geographical conditions, the economy is unlikely to be as prosperous as the southern and central cities of Huainan, and the outside world has commented that Caoyao is a lame city.
Caoyao is not without large enterprises, but the per capita income is very low and the business model is relatively simple. Although Huainan has been emphasizing the western development strategy for many years, using the relatively backward western economy to drive the overall Huainan economy to stabilize, the effect is actually poor. The main reason is that Caoyao lacks the factors for economic growth in new formats, and is still dominated by backward production capacity such as mining and heavy industry.
Fang Zhicheng smiled helplessly: "You're still keeping me in suspense?"
Sui Qi was silent for a moment, and said: "Although Wang Guoyue is very capable and has skills, his current situation in Cao Yao is not good. I am now in the same camp with him. Otherwise, it would be difficult to confront the local officials."
Fang Zhicheng had also heard the rumors. Wang Guoyue's detonation of the bomb set off a fire in the official system of Caoyao City, but this was not a wise move. If he had a way, he would never use such a strong method. The correct way to adjust personnel should be to moisten things silently. Wang Guoyue's move was a bit too much. Although the official structure of Caoyao City was shaken, it was not conducive to his long-term control of Caoyao.
Fang Zhicheng paused and asked tentatively: "From what you said, it seems that you want to convince me to cooperate with Wang Guoyue?"
Sui Qi smiled and said, "Isn't it possible? We are all airborne. With Wang Guoyue's support, you can also adapt to the environment as soon as possible."
Fang Zhicheng shook his head and smiled awkwardly: "You know very well that Wang Guoyue and I have no chance to shake hands."
This was mainly a conflict between factions. Song Wendi allowed Fang Zhicheng to join Cao Yao's team in order to restrict Wang Guoyue, and there was no chance for the two to sit down and talk.
