First, Gong Zeyong has strong business capabilities. Together with Wei Qun, he is a strategic planning expert in China. Under his leadership, many projects have been successful and are highly recognized by the leaders. Even the Tang family trusts him. Although factional disputes are important, there is still room for maneuver in core positions. Gong Zeyong is an important talent actively recruited by the Tang family.
Second, Gong Zeyong has strong personal connections and a solid foundation. Even if Sui Ziqing falls, Gong Zeyong still has a way out. He has a master-disciple relationship with several old leaders of the Central Advisory Commission. With the support of those old leaders, Gong Zeyong can ensure his position is secure.
Gong Zeyong's secretary saw Fang Zhicheng coming and said with a smile, "Director Fang, please wait a moment. I will go in and report."
Fang Zhicheng nodded and glanced at the secretary's desk. Although there were a lot of documents, it was not very messy. There was a newspaper rack on the corner of the desk, and the secretary was sorting the newspapers.
The secretary had already walked out and said to Fang Zhicheng with a smile: "Director Fang, please come in!"
Fang Zhicheng walked into the inner room with a smile. Gong Zeyong raised his head and pointed at the sofa and said, "Please sit down!"
Miyazawa Isamu is a very stylish man. At 58 years old, he is of normal age among deputy ministerial officials. According to his age, he may still be able to move up, but it is hopeless for him to reach the top level.
What is impressive is the look in Miyazawa Yong's eyes, which are calm yet a little stern. He wears a loose black shirt, and his hair is combed neatly and shiny. If he were twenty years younger, he would look more handsome and delicate than Fang Zhicheng.
The secretary brought a cup of tea, and Fang Zhicheng took it and put it on the table.
After the secretary left, Gong Zeyong asked calmly, "What plans does the Foreign Investment Department have for the next foreign investment policy?"
Fang Zhicheng thought to himself that it was not unexpected that Gong Zeyong pointed out this key point. He smiled and said, "Minister Gong, I would also like to find an opportunity to consult you. What are your considerations on foreign investment policy?"
Gong Zeyong's eyes flashed, thinking that Fang Zhicheng was a sly guy who passed the ball to him skillfully. Gong Zeyong touched his chin, pondered for a long time, and whispered: "Foreign investment policies still need to be relaxed. Judging from this year's import and export data, the situation is not very clear. If the foreign investment policy is compressed, it may affect foreign exports."
Fang Zhicheng remained calm, knowing that Gong Zeyong was not that simple, so he agreed with him, "I think so too, so the next step is to add more than ten categories to the foreign investment catalogue, so as to enrich the influx of external funds."
Gong Zeyong glanced at Fang Zhicheng with a half-smile, and said calmly: "Then why did you have such a cold attitude at the foreign business conference, making people feel that the Foreign Investment Department will tighten its policy next?"
Fang Zhicheng continued expressionlessly: "That was just a feint."
Gong Zeyong was a little surprised. He didn't expect Fang Zhicheng's attitude to be like this. His face became slightly solemn. "Just now, Vice Premier Li called and gave instructions that the Foreign Investment Department should not only not add to the foreign investment catalog, but also delete it."
Fang Zhicheng was surprised and asked in confusion: "Why?"
Gong Zeyong couldn't tell whether Fang Zhicheng asked this intentionally or really didn't know the reason. He sneered in his heart and said calmly: "Considering the surplus and deficit of import and export trade, we need to increase the surplus and reduce the deficit, so we can make this decision."
Fang Zhicheng smiled secretly in his heart. This was just a verbal reason. The key was that it was in line with his own judgment. The government decided to use economic means to respond to the military actions of foreign powers.
Fang Zhicheng said that adding foreign investment to the list was not his real intention. He was giving Gong Zeyong a way to issue instructions, which was considered as enough respect for his superior.
Fang Zhicheng chatted with Gong Zeyong for a while, and Gong Zeyong found that Fang Zhicheng was much calmer than he had imagined. He was not an impulsive young cadre as rumored by the outside world. He was good at cleverly negotiating with him, which made him feel difficult to figure out. Gong Zeyong originally thought that the new director of the Foreign Investment Department was a young man who could be well managed, but judging from today's private communication, he was probably wrong.
Chapter 1059: The Difference Between the Outer Circle and the Inner Circle
The communication with Miyazawa Yong was relatively smooth. Fang Zhicheng still admired Miyazawa Yong's ability and quality, and realized why the old leaders of the Central Advisory Commission tried their best to protect Miyazawa Yong.
It is not an exaggeration to describe Miyazawa Isami as a capable minister who governs the country. His judgment on China and the international situation surpasses many people, and even Fang Zhicheng is slightly inferior to him in some areas.
When three people walk together, there must be one person who can be my teacher. At the beginning, Su Qing chose the Foreign Investment Department, probably because he thought that Fang Zhicheng could learn some useful knowledge under Gong Zeyong.
Fang Zhicheng never considered himself a genius. He had many shortcomings. The reason why he was considered very talented and a genius in officialdom in the eyes of others was because Fang Zhicheng had a strong learning ability.
Fate was kind to Fang Zhicheng. When he entered officialdom, he met a famous teacher like Song Wendi. After learning and settling down, he laid an excellent foundation.
Fang Zhicheng is like a sponge, constantly absorbing the abilities of others. Playing against Deng Shaoqun, fighting against Zang Yi, and competing with Wang Guoyue, he also learned many advantages from his competitors.
Although Gong Zeyong doesn't like Fang Zhicheng, through simple communication, he has a basic judgment of his abilities. Under his management, the Foreign Investment Department should undergo a brand new change.
The two of them chatted with their own ulterior motives, and before they knew it, it was past dinner time. The secretary came in to inform them, and Fang Zhicheng said goodbye and left.
Gong Zeyong sat on the sofa and thought for a long time, then sighed and secretly guessed what the Su family meant. Did they want to use Fang Zhicheng to make him change his position and camp
Miyazawa Yong is a man of integrity. He felt aggrieved when Sui Ziqing fell, but reality made him realize that only by keeping a low profile can he provide support for future changes.
Gong Zeyong sat at his desk, dialed Sui Qi's number, and said softly: "Xiao Qi, this is Uncle Gong. I just talked with Fang Zhicheng for a long time. He is indeed an excellent talent."
When Sui Qi heard Fang Zhicheng's name, his heart was stirred, but he said coldly: "Uncle Gong, you promised me last time that you would avenge my father."
Gong Zeyong sighed with a complicated expression and said, "Xiao Qi, your father and I have been close friends for many years. How can I sit back and watch him get into trouble? It's just that the timing is not right now and I am not capable enough. But don't worry, I will give you an explanation as long as I have the chance."
Sui Qi sighed and said, "Then I'll trouble you."
Gong Zeyong hesitated for a moment and asked, "How is your work in Caoyao? If you are not satisfied, you can consider changing jobs."
Sui Qi shook his head and said, "I have to practice my internal skills in the local area first and gain a firm foothold."
After finishing the phone call with Gong Zeyong, tears flowed from Sui Qi's eyes. No words could express the pain in her heart.
Perhaps time can heal everything, but at this moment, Sui Qi feels that his heart is torn into countless pieces, his soul is torn apart, and he is in great pain.
The canteen of the Development and Reform Commission is very spacious and can accommodate hundreds of people at the same time. It is past lunch time, so there are not many people eating. There are a few people queuing up, and the aroma of oily food is wafting. The person serving food is a middle-aged woman in her fifties. She has a smile on her face and says to Fang Zhicheng, "I'll give you more meat and vegetables."
During peak hours, there won’t be so many meat dishes.
Fang Zhicheng smiled faintly, holding a stainless steel lunch tray, and sat in the corner. "Don't look down on these aunts, if you don't have a solid background, it will be difficult to enter the canteen of the Development and Reform Commission."
As he grew older, Fang Zhicheng was no longer at the age of liking meat, so he had no interest in meat dishes. However, the aunt gave him a lot of them, so he picked the meat dishes aside and put a few cauliflowers into his mouth.
The phone rang, and Zhang Xiaoliang called and reported: "Boss, I found out the identities of the guy with the mohawk and the short hair. The short hair guy is Tu Ping, he is 22 years old and still in school. His father is the deputy director of the Yanjing Public Security Bureau, and his grandfather was a founding general and a confidant of Marshal Long, who passed away more than ten years ago. The mohawk is Diao Yi, his grandfather was also a fierce general under Marshal Long, and his father is the chairman of Guoxin Group and a deputy ministerial-level cadre."
