Fang Zhicheng waved his hand and said unhappily: "If you want the horse to run fast, you have to let it eat grass."

Tu Daofeng immediately understood and said to make amends: "I will have someone re-draft the transfer letter and directly incorporate his organizational relationship into the municipal government as a transfer."

Tu Daofeng's analysis makes sense. Generally speaking, there will be a transition period for the adjustment of lower-level cadres, so that they can advance and retreat properly. If Hua Qingwen cannot complete the work well, there is also a chance to step back and let him return to his original unit. Once the organizational relationship is determined, the procedures for adjustment will be particularly troublesome.

Seeing Tu Daofeng's cooperation, Fang Zhicheng felt that he was too strong. He coughed and said, "Comrade Daofeng, I've thought about it carefully. I think we should focus on secondment. Isn't there a three-month probation period in enterprises? After three months, if you are good, you can stay, if not, you can leave."

Tu Daofeng thought to himself that Fang Zhicheng had suddenly become easy to talk to, and quickly smiled and said, "That's exactly the truth."

Fang Zhicheng smiled, then suddenly fell silent for a moment, tapping his fingers rhythmically on the table a few times. Tu Daofeng's face slowly hardened, knowing that Fang Zhicheng had other things to tell him.

Fang Zhicheng asked calmly, "Old Tu, has Mayor Qu often told you recently that he wants you to take a step further and move out of the government office and develop into a deputy mayor in charge?"

Tu Daofeng was slightly startled, and said truthfully: "That's what I meant."

Fang Zhicheng waved his hand and said softly, "Don't be used as cannon fodder."

Tu Daofeng's eyes flashed with doubt, and he asked, "Mayor Fang, please explain clearly!"

"You should have heard about the recent developments at the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee. There will be major changes in the organizational relationship in Caoyao. Many people in the municipal system will be adjusted and retreat from the front line to the second line. In this context, how much do you think there is a possibility of further progress?" Fang Zhicheng explained patiently. He was at a higher angle than Tu Daofeng, so he looked at the problem more deeply.

Tu Daofeng still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, but after Fang Zhicheng's advice, he finally realized that Qu Kang's words were just to appease people.

Qu Kang now said this not only to Tu Daofeng, but also to all other subordinates. The concession to Wang Guoyue was a strategy to be promoted secretly, but Qu Kang had to speak openly in public to avoid confusion within the organization. Especially for a backbone force like Tu Daofeng, Qu Kang could not be careless.

Tu Daofeng looked at Fang Zhicheng again, and felt that the young man in front of him was more and more unfathomable. He had the ability to see through the essence of some things, which made people shudder.

Fang Zhicheng added: "Everyone thinks that I am just in Caoyao for a short period of time, but that is not the case. My position as a temporary official is just like Hua Qingwen's secondment to the municipal government. It is just a temporary measure to ensure that I can advance or retreat. If things go smoothly, who can guarantee that Caoyao will not divide the world into three parts?"

The so-called three-way division of the world, one is Wang Guoyue, the second is Qu Kang, and the third is the newcomer Fang Zhicheng!

Tu Daofeng heard confidence and courage in Fang Zhicheng's tone, and also understood Fang Zhicheng's intention to win him over.

Fang Zhicheng saw Tu Daofeng's eyes flickering, and knew that he was struggling with his conscience. He smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry about it anymore. You actually have no choice. Because your secret is in my hands."

Tu Daofeng's eyes were dazed, and he nodded, "I understand."

Seeing Tu Daofeng's dejected face, Fang Zhicheng stood up and walked in front of Tu Daofeng, and promised softly: "For three months, if I still can't gain a foothold in Cao Yao, then you can still return to your original position. Before that, I won't give you too many things, you just need to watch me perform quietly by the side."

Tu Daofeng originally thought that Fang Zhicheng wanted him to do something dangerous by himself, but now that he heard that he just needed to watch, his mind suddenly came alive.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Mayor Fang, since I have chosen this path, I will stick to it. From now on, no matter what arrangements you make, I will do my best to follow your orders."

Fang Zhicheng nodded and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will never ask you to go through fire and water!"

Conquering Tu Daofeng is a key link in Fang Zhicheng's plan for Cao Yao. Apart from that, he must gain real power and not just be a decoration or a vase.

After walking around the office floor, I went out and saw Xue Fulian, who was accompanied by someone and seemed to be discussing work. When passing by Fang Zhicheng, Xue Fulian didn't even look at him. Xue Fulian was the deputy mayor in charge of the Development and Reform Commission, and he probably regarded Fang Zhicheng, who was in charge of the Development and Reform Commission, as a thorn in his side.

Being looked down upon, he was naturally in a bad mood. When he returned to the office, his cell phone rang. Fang Zhicheng took a look and saw that it was Chu Shiyuan calling.

After the call was connected, Chu Shiyuan smiled and said, "How is it? Mayor Fang, is your work going well?"

Fang Zhicheng smiled and said truthfully: "How much work can a deputy mayor do?"

Chu Shiyuan chuckled twice and said, "In two days, the Provincial Development and Reform Commission will have a survey. If you have time, why not accompany me for a walk in Caoyao?"

Fang Zhicheng was a little surprised, because with Chu Shiyuan's status, there was no need for him to come to Caoyao. After all, Caoyao's economic level and political status were not high in the province, and it could only be in the middle and lower stages. Immediately, he understood what Chu Shiyuan meant. He came to Caoyao this time to cheer for him.

Originally, he had planned to let Zhang Xiaoliang visit Cao Yao as a researcher at the High-tech Industry Department. Now, if Chu Shiyuan came to Cao Yao in person, the effect would be more than doubled.

If Chu Shiyuan came to Huainan in person, Xue Fulian, the deputy mayor in charge of the Development and Reform Commission, would definitely accompany him in person.

Chapter 0939 Controversy over the Addition of Standing Committee Members

In the small meeting room on the third floor, Wang Guoyue presided over a meeting of secretaries to discuss the addition of standing committee members to the Caoyao Municipal Party Committee. Before Wang Guoyue came to Caoyao, there were thirteen standing committee members in the municipal party committee, which was later adjusted to eleven. With Fang Zhicheng's airborne transfer to Caoyao as a temporary official, the number of standing committee members has now become twelve.

The number of team members at all levels is usually an odd number, so that when voting, the result can be quickly determined. If there are thirteen people, six are against and six are in favor, then the last vote is particularly critical.

"Comrades, everyone knows that Cao Yao has just undergone an adjustment, so the membership of our Standing Committee has not been stable enough. There are now twelve members of the Standing Committee, so I suggest adding one more member to bring the number of members back to the previous standard." Wang Guoyue said in a loud voice.

Qu Kang's brows were always twisted into the shape of a "川" (chuan) character. It was not because he was dissatisfied with Wang Guoyue's decision, but because he was born that way. The "川" (chuan) character on his brows was also compared by common people to Erlang Shen's "third eye".

Seeing that everyone was silent, Qu Kang said calmly: "The number of standing committee members can be increased, but the key is who will be promoted?"

Chang Mengyuan also said: "That's right! This person must not only be capable, but also have prestige, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public."

Seeing the two deputy secretaries speaking in unison, Wang Guoyue glanced at Guan Ruofei.

Guan Ruofei seemed a little distracted. When the atmosphere suddenly quieted down, he spoke: "I think Comrade Chen Zhen, the secretary general of the municipal party committee, can be included in the standing committee. In other cities, the secretaries general of the municipal party committee are all members of the standing committee. In addition, Comrade Chen Zhen's ability and prestige must be obvious to all!"

Because the discussion involved the candidates for the Standing Committee, Chen Zhen avoided the issue and did not appear on the scene today.

Chang Mengyuan smiled slightly, it looked natural, but if you looked closely, you could see a hint of contempt in it. "Minister Guan, that's wrong. Although Chen Zhen is a veteran of the municipal party committee and is very familiar with the work, he has always been a deputy. It would be too much pressure for him to be a member of the standing committee. I think if we really want to add a new member to the standing committee, Comrade Zhang Xian meets all the requirements."

Zhang Xian is indeed a good candidate. If he had not suffered a small loss in the Cao Yao No. 3 Middle School incident, he would probably have been the executive vice mayor now.

Deng Zhanying, secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, frowned and said, "There are already two deputy mayors serving as members of the Standing Committee. If Zhang Xian is also included in the Standing Committee, won't there be three members? This is a bit inappropriate!"
