Fang Zhicheng smiled and did not give a direct answer. After all, he was the director of Dongtai Investment Promotion Bureau. If he reported the problem to the head of the Organization Department, it would be considered as snitching. Even though he had a good personal relationship with Qiu Hengde, he could not be too direct when talking about official business in this occasion.
Qiu Hengde held his chin, pondered for a long time, and commented: "Sun Weiming is a very courageous young cadre, but he is a little selfish. He is aggressive in doing things, but sometimes too utilitarian. As for the other cadres, their appeal in Dongtai is not as strong as Sun Weiming's. As a result, it is easy for the team to become a one-man show."
Qiu Hengde is the Organization Minister of the Municipal Party Committee. He has sufficient understanding of the key cadres in his jurisdiction. He can get a glimpse of the whole picture. He can understand the situation in the entire Yinzhou through the resumes of the cadres. This is a basic ability.
Fang Zhicheng smiled bitterly and said, "The government is in a mess right now. Ninety percent of the development plans proposed by County Mayor Xing Jike will be rejected."
Fang Zhicheng was telling the truth. Qiu Hengde nodded and said softly, "This is the pain that all teams will face when they are running in. We need to be tolerant. But the premise of all running-in must be based on not affecting the overall situation."
Fang Zhicheng remained calm. From Qiu Hengde's tone, he could tell that the municipal party committee still attached great importance to Sun Weiming and tacitly approved his behavior in Dongtai. From Sun Weiming's perspective, it made sense for him to do so. Qian Dechen, the former county party secretary, had been rooted in Dongtai for many years and had established a complex network of interpersonal relationships in the officialdom. Serious illnesses must be treated with strong medicines, otherwise it would be difficult to achieve results.
Therefore, Sun Weiming made drastic changes to the officials in Dongtai, which was tacitly approved by the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department. However, Fang Zhicheng's attitude made Qiu Hengde suspicious. The reason why the Song faction supported Sun Weiming was mainly because of the cooperative attitude shown by Sun Weiming during the double-regulation of Qian Dechen. Song Wendi and Qiu Hengde both regarded Sun Weiming as a member of their faction, but now from Fang Zhicheng's tone, he could see that he was not very fond of Sun Weiming, which made him suspicious.
I originally thought that Sun Weiming and Fang Zhicheng were very close, but was this just an illusion? If it was just an illusion, then the Song faction would have to consider how much support it would give to Sun Weiming in the future.
Fang Zhicheng only touched upon Sun Weiming and did not express his vigilance against him. After all, Sun Weiming was still very caring towards him, especially in the work of attracting investment, and he spared no effort to support him. But Fang Zhicheng knew Sun Weiming's intentions, which were just to use him to help him gain enough political achievements.
Fang Zhicheng has been used by Sun Weiming many times and has become a pawn in the palm of someone else's hand. How could he be willing
The door of the study was gently pushed open, and Lele showed half of his head and said softly, "Uncle, we are going back. Mom asked if I could give you a ride."
Fang Zhicheng quickly stood up, smiled and said goodbye to Qiu Hengde, walked to the door, picked up Lele and let her sit on his shoulders. Seeing Fang Zhicheng and Lele having fun together, Xie Yuxin's eyes showed a warm feeling.
After getting in the car, Fang Zhicheng and Lele sat in the back seat. Ten minutes later, Lele fell asleep in Fang Zhicheng's arms. Xie Yuxin turned her head and glanced at Lele. She smiled sweetly and sighed, "I don't know why Lele is so dependent on you."
Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "Dependence is mutual. I also depend on Lele. She can bring me joy."
Xie Yuxin smiled slightly, then suddenly remembered something. A look of sadness appeared on her face, and she asked softly, "What did you talk about with Feng Kunqi today?"
Fang Zhicheng scratched his head and chuckled, "Can I not say it?"
"No!" Xie Yuxin snorted softly, her beautiful eyes wide open, looking from the back, with a sense of cuteness and innocence.
Fang Zhicheng said calmly: "I told Feng Kunqi that I am your boyfriend and asked him to stay away from you in the future, otherwise I will beat him up."
Xie Yuxin sighed and said with a wry smile: "You really know how to lie."
Fang Zhicheng was silent for a moment, then asked, "I didn't lie."
Xie Yuxin smiled and said, "But thank you anyway. I know you chased him and warned him for my sake."
Xie Yuxin looked very calm. Fang Zhicheng felt a pang in his heart for some reason when he saw her. "Do you still have feelings for him?"
Xie Yuxin shook her head and said, "I don't know either. After all, we loved each other so much. Even if that relationship has become fragments, I still feel a little heartache when I think of it occasionally. However, I am very rational and will never restore those fragments. Let the past be completely over."
Fang Zhicheng nodded without saying much, knowing that this was the scar in Xie Yuxin's heart. The fact that she had said so much to him tonight was already her limit.
After watching Xie Yuxin's red car leave, Fang Zhicheng sighed and walked upstairs. Before he entered the house, he heard a burst of laughter from inside. After Fang Zhicheng rang the doorbell, the door lock was unscrewed, revealing Xu Jiao's pretty face. After entering the house, he found a mahjong table in the middle of the living room. In addition to Xu Jiao and Qin Yuming, there was also a man and a woman.
Fang Zhicheng stared at the woman for a long time and felt that she looked familiar. Qin Yuming introduced her, "Zhicheng, let me introduce you. This is my best friend from college, Shen Wei. And that handsome guy is her husband, Xiao Qiang."
"Hello, my name is Fang Zhicheng!" Fang Zhicheng shook hands with Xiao Qiang first.
Then Shen Wei took the initiative to stretch out her hand. After her fingers lightly touched Fang Zhicheng's, she suddenly showed a puzzled look on her face and exclaimed, "We have met before!"
Fang Zhicheng showed a puzzled look, shook his head, and said with a smile: "I just think he looks familiar..."
Shen Wei sat on the chair, pulled Qin Yuming's body beside her, then closed her eyes and put her head on her shoulder.
Fang Zhicheng suddenly realized something and sighed, "What a coincidence! It turned out to be the lady who got carsick sitting next to me on the bus from Dongtai back to Yinzhou today."
Shen Wei's cheeks flushed bright red, and she whispered to Xiao Qiang, "I felt very uncomfortable today, and was dizzy for a long time in the car, and then he took care of me in the car."
Xiao Qiang showed a look of realization on his face and said with a smile: "Thank you."
Fang Zhicheng waved his hand, thinking that he was just borrowing a shoulder, and said quickly: "You're welcome, it's just a small favor."
After exchanging pleasantries, the four continued to play mahjong. Fang Zhicheng was not very good at it, so he sat behind Xu Jiao and looked at the cards. At the same time, he secretly observed the couple and found that they cooperated very well. Although they were opponents, they sometimes played some tacit cards. The key to playing mahjong is luck. Although Xu Jiao's card playing skills were not very good, she had good luck and won several cards in a row by self-touching.
Shen Wei sighed and said with a smile: "I found that Xiao Fang is a lucky star. When he sits behind Xu Jiao, Xu Jiao's luck immediately improves."
Qin Yuming rolled her eyes at Shen Wei and said, "How about letting him sit behind you?"
Shen Wei stuck out her tongue and said with a smile, "Then I'd better not do that. I'm afraid my husband will be jealous."
Xiao Qiang waved his hand and said humorously: "There is no father and son, let alone husband and wife, at the mahjong table. I won't be jealous."
Qin Yuming laughed and said, "Oh, Weiwei, your husband doesn't want you anymore, what should you do?"
Shen Wei glared at Xiao Qiang and said in feigned anger, "You dare not want me? That would be great. Tomorrow I will post a marriage announcement and I guarantee that there will be people lining up to apply."
Xiao Qiang quickly admitted his mistake, made a stop gesture, and said, "I admit my mistake. It's just playing mahjong, losing money doesn't matter, but losing my wife is not worth it."
The couple Shen Wei and Xiao Qiang sang in unison, and the atmosphere at the mahjong table was quite lively. Fang Zhicheng watched for a while and almost understood the rules of the table. Xu Jiao was a little tired, so she pushed Fang Zhicheng to play a few cards for her.
Fang Zhicheng had just sat down when he felt someone step on his instep. He glanced at Shen Wei on his right, and Shen Wei quickly lowered her head.
Fang Zhicheng thought about it and suddenly remembered what had happened and smiled bitterly in his heart. This Shen Wei was really a passionate young woman. She took off her shoes and wanted to step on the instep of her husband opposite her. Unexpectedly, Fang Zhicheng suddenly stretched out his foot, and the soft sole of his foot actually stepped on Fang Zhicheng.
