Climbing the Career Ladder

This made Qian Dechen particularly frustrated and then angry.

Luo Hui was an important chess piece that Qian Dechen had planted in Qiongjin, and he had provided Qian Dechen with a lot of useful information, but this time he was extremely late, causing Qian Dechen's actions to lag behind everywhere. As a result, Mayor Zhang Guoxin was very dissatisfied with Qian Dechen.

Qian Dechen sighed, sat on the sofa, rubbed his temples, and said in a deep voice: "Luo Hui, you disappoint me."

As the director of the Hainan Office, Luo Hui was Qian Dechen's source of information, but this time he was delayed, preventing Qian Dechen from gaining the upper hand, which made him unhappy.

Luo Hui quickly stood up and said aggrievedly: "Boss, it was indeed an accident. I have been paying attention to the movements of the Qi Group, but I have never had the opportunity to contact them."

Qian Dechen waved his hand and said calmly: "The Qi Group's affairs are a thing of the past. But we must learn lessons in time. We made a big mistake and underestimated Fang Zhicheng's power."

Luo Hui also felt deeply that Fang Zhicheng played a vital role in Dongtai County's success in winning the 4 billion investment project of Qi Group. He could not help but plan the investment promotion plan of Oriental Dubai Dongtai to attract the attention of Qi Group, and also established relationships with representative members of Qi Group, which made Dongtai stand out from dozens of counties and districts in the province.

Luo Hui looked embarrassed and smiled bitterly, "Boss, you are right. Fang Zhicheng is indeed very capable. If he stays in Dongtai, it will be a destabilizing factor. How about finding a way to kick him out of the Merchants Group?"

Qian Dechen shook his head, frowning, and sighed, "Fang Zhicheng has just arrived at the Dongtai Merchants Bureau and has made great contributions. If we kick him out now, won't it give people something to talk about? I have an idea now, but the premise is that you are willing to return to the county from the Hainan Office."

"Ah?" Luo Hui could not hide the surprise on his face, but it was only a flash. He could probably guess Qian Dechen's intention, which was that he wanted him to return to Dongtai to check Fang Zhicheng's development.

Luo Hui found it difficult to accept this result. Although the director of the Hainan Office was not high-ranking, only at the section level, he was far away from the emperor, had enough freedom, had a source of information, and could directly serve the county party committee leaders. It could be said that this was a rare and lucrative position. Now, it was inevitable that Luo Hui would feel reluctant to return to Dongtai County and live a restrained life.

Qian Dechen saw that Luo Hui was not happy, so he threw out the bait of interests, flicked his fingers on the table twice, and said: "The county government is short of soldiers and generals now. If you are willing to come back, you will definitely have the position of deputy county magistrate. Moreover, I can also promise that within two years, I will let you enter the Standing Committee..."

Luo Hui was only in his thirties. If he could become a member of the Standing Committee and deputy county chief in two years, it would undoubtedly be a huge promotion. Facing this temptation, Luo Hui could not help but be tempted. And judging from Qian Dechen's attitude, he could not refuse. He gritted his teeth and nodded, saying, "Okay, then I'll go back to Dongtai."

Qian Dechen smiled with satisfaction and said calmly: "After you return to Dongtai, I will coordinate and arrange for you to become the deputy county magistrate in charge of attracting investment. In this way, you will have the authority to pay attention to Fang Zhicheng's every move."

Luo Hui asked doubtfully, "I'm afraid County Magistrate Sun won't compromise easily, right?"

Qian Dechen waved his hand and said confidently: "I will make some arrangements for this matter. Now you just need to think about how to do a good job of attracting investment when you return to Dongtai."

Qian Dechen knew Luo Hui's character very well. He was a man who knew the big picture. Qian Dechen had been training him to be his confidant, and Luo Hui rarely let him down. Qian Dechen also knew that Luo Hui was wavering between him and Sun Weiming, but he thought it was because of his position. If he gave Luo Hui a new step now, it would surely strengthen his faith and make him serve him wholeheartedly.

Luo Hui nodded and said with a smile: "I have accumulated a lot of resources in the Hainan Office, and I believe that I can bring changes to Dongtai County. However, I have a little question..."

Qian Dechen raised his eyebrows and said, "Go ahead."

"Is it impossible to cooperate with Qingtian Paper Industry? Mr. Dou has been contacting me recently and he seems to be very interested." Luo Hui asked in a low voice.

Qian Dechen recalled being reprimanded by Song Wendi before, and he was indignant. He snorted and said, "Don't cut off contact for the time being. How can you be picky when attracting investment? Some people say that they want to ensure the sustainable development of the local area, but in fact they are just using this as an excuse to suppress their political opponents."

Luo Hui was slightly startled, knowing that there was still room for maneuver, and said with a smile: "I know what to do."

After walking out of the county party secretary's office, a cold wind blew towards him. Luo Hui couldn't help shivering. He wrapped his black windbreaker tightly, frowned slightly, and exhaled heavily.

Dongtai is in a very complicated situation now. He was transferred back to Dongtai County Government from the Office in Qiong County. It seemed that his future was bright, but in fact, his freedom was restricted. Luo Hui originally wanted to gradually move from the officialdom to the business world. The Office in Qiong County was undoubtedly a good opportunity, but now he is back to square one again.

Luo Hui took out a cigarette, lit it and blew a few smoke rings, then left the place with a slightly hesitant look.

Chapter 0198 The supervisor has changed

Luo Hui is a smart man. He started as an ordinary clerk in the government and became the director of the Hainan Office in less than ten years. He has his own strengths. Especially under the impact of the economic development in recent years, he felt that doing business was more attractive to him than politics. So he used the Hainan Office as a platform to set up a family business in Hainan and invested in a building integrating entertainment and leisure, and achieved certain results.

Dongtai Office in Hainan is the only one among Dongtai County's many overseas offices that does not receive government subsidies and brings a certain amount of income to the Dongtai government every year. Qian Dechen values him very much because of his excellent management and business skills and trains him as his right-hand man.

Luo Hui's current position is inseparable from Qian Dechen's support. Although he wants to erase the stigma on his body, he is helpless. The officialdom is like a big dye vat. Once you are positioned, you will never be able to change other people's views and opinions in your life.

Qian Dechen is his mentor and also controls his future destiny. If Qian Dechen is unhappy, he can completely remove his position as the director of the Hainan Office, and then Luo Hui will have nothing to gain. Luo Hui knows Qian Dechen very well. Qian Dechen is an old man with enough experience and wisdom, and is good at forbearance. This is why Sun Weiming has been in the limelight for several years, but has never dared to confront Qian Dechen head-on.

Fang Zhicheng was still young after all, and Luo Hui was not afraid of a young man who had just started out. What he feared was Song Wendi behind Fang Zhicheng. Song Wendi, secretary of the Yinzhou Municipal Party Committee, was different from his predecessors. He had a variety of means, was brave and resourceful, and in less than a year, he had established a high reputation among the people of Yinzhou. Judging from all the trends, Song Wendi's future was limitless. I was afraid that once his term in Yinzhou was over, he would most likely be promoted to the next level, towards the position of deputy governor.

It is unwise to compete with someone who has the support of others, but Luo Hui does not have many options and can only go into battle.

Luo Hui sat in the car, thinking for a long time, and finally made up his mind. Then he called Hua Dingxing, deputy director of the Hainan Office, and revealed that he was about to leave the Hainan Office. Hua Dingxing was surprised to hear that Luo Hui was about to leave the Hainan Office. As a deputy, he knew Luo Hui's contribution to the Hainan Office. After Luo Hui explained some things to Hua Dingxing, he felt relieved. Although he left the Hainan Office, some resources must be used for his own use. After he left the Hainan Office, Hua Dingxing would replace him. He also gave Hua Dingxing a personal favor, believing that he would definitely support his work in the future.

The Hainan Office is a very important card in Luo Hui's hand. If he successfully becomes the deputy county magistrate of Dongtai County in charge of attracting investment, he must rely on the power of this card if he wants to achieve results.

Over the years, the Hainan Office has been welcoming and seeing off guests, and as a bridgehead between Dongtai County and major well-known companies, it has accumulated a lot of business resources. Once these resources are deeply explored and thoroughly activated, they will bring a lot of capital injection to Dongtai County.

Life is constantly changing, and no one knows where they will go next. Since Luo Hui was pushed by Qian Dechen to re-enter the turbulent officialdom of Dongtai, he naturally had to use his own power to make earth-shaking changes to Dongtai County's investment promotion work.

Of course, in addition to this, there is another important task, which is to suppress the secretary of the municipal party committee, Fang Zhicheng, the current director of the Investment Promotion Bureau.

On the road to official career, "pursuing interests and fighting openly and secretly" have always gone hand in hand.

December 24th, Christmas Eve.

Qin Yuming sent a text message to Fang Zhicheng that a registered letter had been sent from Xiangdu, all in English. She read it reluctantly and thought it should be sent from Xiangdu, and it might be related to the 30 million mentioned earlier.

Fang Zhicheng immediately called Qi Yu, and Qi Yu confirmed: "I arranged for someone to send the registered letter. It contains the activation code, which must be activated within a week. Just go to Xingsheng Bank to process it. This is the dividend of the jadeite raw stone."

Xiangdu Xingsheng Bank is a well-known foreign bank with branches in many countries around the world and a high reputation. Qi Yu opened an account for Qin Yuming through Xingsheng Bank, which also avoided certain risks.

Seeing that the suspense was solved, Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "Why didn't you remind me? I was caught off guard."

Qi Yu smiled, stood up from the desk, walked to the bedside, looked through the glass window at the street view in the distance, with tall buildings standing, and then said in her not-so-standard Hong Kong Mandarin: "I deliberately wanted to give you a surprise, a Christmas present."

Fang Zhicheng smiled bitterly and said, "Oh, so you are Santa Claus."
