Fang Zhicheng knew that Song Wendi was not really blaming him, so he put away his cynical attitude and said seriously: "Boss, I think the different environment is just an excuse. The so-called iron laws and forbidden areas are also set by humans. As long as you have confidence, you can break them. The so-called reform and opening up is definitely not limited to the economy. At the same time, the thinking and way of doing things of us officials must also change. Some fig leaves should be removed. If you don't like some people, you have to express it. Otherwise, the working environment we are in will always be so dogmatic, closed, and there will be no progress. As a government that promotes economic reform, if we don't make progress and open our horizons, how can we make this society innovative and develop?"

Song Wendi pondered for a long time and whispered, "The current officialdom atmosphere needs to be changed, but this is also a minefield. If you want to implement reforms, it is very likely to have a counterproductive effect."

The discussion between Fang Zhicheng and Song Wendi was not limited to work style issues, but also involved ideological issues. Although the party has not imposed too many restrictions on ideological issues in recent years, the experience and lessons have made people vigilant.

Song Wendi sighed and said, "The municipal party committee will issue a document with the following content: it requires all counties and districts in Yinzhou to seek development and breakthroughs around local key projects. In the face of key projects, we must have a big picture view... How do you think?"

Fang Zhicheng called Song Wendi just to report the situation, but he didn't expect Song Wendi to help him so clearly. After this document is issued, the power of the deputy county chief in charge of key projects will be greatly increased. Moreover, Sun Weiming and Deng Hongguo are not stupid people. After a little speculation, they can guess the purpose of this document. It is to help Fang Zhicheng and tell Deng Hongguo and his ilk to have a big picture view and not be blinded by selfishness, which will affect the progress of key projects.

"Thank you, boss! You are so wise and capable. Under your leadership, Yinzhou will surely prosper and develop with each passing day..." Fang Zhicheng was flattering him blatantly.

Song Wendi smiled and said, "I have given you enough support. I hope you can succeed in Huijin Commercial Plaza. In this way, you can also get a seat among the many standing committee members."

Fang Zhicheng nodded and smiled, "Please rest assured, boss. I hope you will take time out of your busy schedule to attend the opening ceremony that day and cut the ribbon with the representatives of the Qi Group."

Song Wendi laughed happily and said, "It's a big event in Yinzhou, I will definitely attend it."

After communicating with Song Wendi, Fang Zhicheng breathed a sigh of relief. The negative impact of the "punching Deng Hongguo" incident was still reduced to the lowest level, and it even helped him to enter the Standing Committee.

What lies before him now is no longer Deng Hongguo or Sun Weiming. He must deal with the current situation facing Huijin Commercial Plaza. This is the top priority.

After Fang Zhicheng finished the call, Zhan Yao walked in holding the materials. He looked a little strange, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "Just say whatever you want to say. There's no need to be shy."

Zhan Yao sighed and said, "Boss, I heard that you signed a military order. If Huijin Commercial Plaza cannot open as scheduled, then you plan to resign?"

Fang Zhicheng's career path is closely related to Zhan Yao. Zhan Yao had just seen the light, and he couldn't sleep for several days after hearing that Fang Zhicheng was about to enter the Standing Committee. Now there is a sudden turn of events, and Fang Zhicheng actually beat Deng Hongguo. Now there is a lot of discussion in the county party committee compound. Many people have no hope for Fang Zhicheng's entry into the Standing Committee, and even think that Fang Zhicheng will be transferred out of the county government for being too reckless.

Fang Zhicheng saw the concern in Zhan Yao's eyes, and suddenly he felt a little more responsible. In fact, it was not clear when his political career began, but it no longer belonged to him alone. If he had problems, it would not only affect his own future, but also Zhan Yao and Li Hui. Once he fell, they would inevitably become the targets of his opponents.

"Since the military order has been signed, it must be fulfilled. However, are you so unconfident that you think Huijin Commercial Plaza will be postponed?" Fang Zhicheng asked with a faint smile.

Zhan Yao showed an embarrassed look on his face and said, "It's all spread like wildfire now. Qi's Group, the main investor of Huijin Commercial Plaza, has run into problems, especially in terms of attracting investment..."

Fang Zhicheng waved his hand, interrupting Zhan Yao's words, and said in a deep voice: "Don't follow the crowd. In my opinion, this is an opportunity for Dongtai. It is precisely because society now does not trust the Qi Group's ability to attract investment that the Qi Group will spare no effort to ensure that Dongtai's commercial real estate opens smoothly. This is the best brand public relations for the company."

Fang Zhicheng's words were obviously not enough to convince Zhan Yao. He smiled bitterly and said, "But now everyone is laughing at me..."

Fang Zhicheng snorted and said, "If Huijin Commercial Plaza fails to meet expectations, then we will be the ones to laugh at their jokes."

Zhan Yao didn't say much. Although Fang Zhicheng was comforting himself and was full of confidence, he didn't have much confidence. After all, what Fang Zhicheng did this time was too unexpected, and almost no one could understand what Fang Zhicheng did.

Fang Zhicheng could have taken a softer approach to resolve the matter. He should not have taken such drastic measures.

But Zhan Yao had no idea that if Fang Zhicheng compromised, it would play into Sun Weiming's hands. Only his fierce resistance would make Sun Weiming realize Fang Zhicheng's ability and stop trying to control him.

Fang Zhicheng will no longer allow himself to become a pawn of Sun Weiming, because he has accumulated enough strength. As long as he successfully enters the Standing Committee, he will have the strength to confront Sun Weiming at the Standing Committee level.

After entering Dongtai, Fang Zhicheng was used by Sun Weiming everywhere. Although he seemed calm on the surface, he had actually accumulated a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart. Today's outburst was just the first step.

Chapter 0377 One More Confidante

As soon as Qi Yu arrived in Dongtai, she called Fang Zhicheng. She was a little excited, as if she had met a friend she hadn't seen for a long time. The phone rang a few times, but it didn't go through. Qi Yu frowned and put the phone aside. Not long after, the phone rang again, and Qi Yu quickly picked up the phone.

"Why didn't you answer when I called you just now?" After Qi Yu said this, she felt that something was wrong with her tone, as if she was a jealous woman with resentment.

Fang Zhicheng smiled and said truthfully: "I just went to the next office to get some information, so I didn't get your call. Have you arrived in Dongtai now? Should I come over to see you, or should you come to my office to sit down? I just have something to discuss with you."

"Let me come and see you." In fact, Qi Yu had already instructed the driver to drive the car to the county party committee compound.

After hanging up the phone, Qi Yu realized that there was something wrong with her mentality. When she was in Hong Kong, she often thought of Fang Zhicheng. Recently, her family elders had introduced many people to her. For some reason, she always compared those blind dates with Fang Zhicheng. This comparison was a bit strange. She always compared Fang Zhicheng's advantages with his disadvantages. How could she find a target that suited her

But if she has to lower her standards, Qi Yu always feels that it is better to live alone.

In fact, Qi Yu knew in her heart that this kind of emotion was a deformed love. There would be no future between her and Fang Zhicheng. There was no intersection in their living environment and circle. She should be rational and discard unnecessary fantasies. However, feelings were difficult to deduce with common sense. The more they were suppressed, the more difficult it was to control. The faint feelings were like weeds after a spring rain. No matter how heavy the stone above was, it would always poke its head out from the cracks, burst out with the slightest inducement, and grow wildly!

Qi Yu sometimes feels that she is trapped in a kind of obsession, unable to extricate herself and unwilling to extricate herself!

Before they knew it, they had arrived at the compound of Dongtai County Party Committee. Before getting off the car, Qi Yu took out the makeup bag from her purse, put on a little light makeup, and then slowly walked down.

The haze of random thoughts that had been lingering in the car was also swept away.

Fang Zhicheng knew that Qi Yu liked to drink coffee, so he had prepared it long ago. Qi Yu took a sip of coffee and found that Fang Zhicheng was looking at her with bright and warm eyes. She couldn't help but feel a little upset. Qi Yu put down the coffee cup, coughed lightly and said, "Tell me, what do you want to discuss..."

Fang Zhicheng took a document from his desk and said with a smile, "Let me do a business with you."

Qi Yu simply flipped through the documents and said noncommittally: "Why don't they negotiate directly with the Qi Group? Isn't it a bit inappropriate to let the Dongtai government come forward?"

Fang Zhicheng waved his hand and smiled faintly: "You may not know our government's style of doing things. The government's perspective is to integrate various resources to serve enterprises. Now that the Qi Group is facing problems, our government is mobilizing resources to help you find resources. This is faster than you looking for partners on your own."

Qi Yu shook her head and said, "But the rental price given in the plan is too low. As you know, our group has spent a lot of money on hardware investment in Huijin Commercial Plaza. With the rental price you proposed, we can't recover the cost at all. Moreover, if we add electricity, water and other public resources, we will suffer a great loss."

Fang Zhicheng pointed to one of the details and explained, "The rent can still be negotiated. The most urgent task now is to get the commercial plaza officially open. If Huijin Commercial Plaza is popular enough, there will definitely be a constant stream of shops wanting to move in later. If you want to raise the price by then, isn't it just a matter of your words?"

Qi Yu hesitated, feeling a little flustered for some reason, and said thoughtfully: "I feel something is wrong."

Fang Zhicheng spread out his hands and smiled bitterly: "What's wrong?"

Qi Yu thought about it, exhaled, and said: "I feel that everything has been arranged by the government. Will you sell it out halfway?"
