Fang Zhicheng nodded and said with a smile: "Of course I can write the military order, but Comrade Shaoqun, you have to agree to my conditions."
Lee Kuan Yew and Director Gao looked at each other and smiled with a hint of bitterness. They had sent many new cadres to take office, but most of the time they were in a friendly manner. They did not expect that Fang Zhicheng and Deng Shaoqun would start a fight as soon as they met. It was likely that there would be some lively things to watch in the Xiaguang District in the future.
Deng Shaoqun waved his hand and said with a smile: "Since Comrade Zhicheng is confident that he can get a 10 billion investment project, you can ask for anything you want."
Fang Zhicheng said softly: "First, I have my own ideas and thoughts on attracting investment, so if I want to achieve the task target, I need to do a major operation on the investment system. I hope Comrade Shaoqun can support me. In addition, in terms of government work, I will adjust the division of tasks of the deputy district chief after I am familiar with it. I also hope Comrade Shaoqun can understand."
Deng Shaoqun could agree to Fang Zhicheng's first request, after all, the investment promotion system was only a small part of the government's work, and even if it was all left to Fang Zhicheng, it would not affect the overall situation. But Fang Zhicheng's second request was a bit too arrogant, and he actually wanted to adjust the division of tasks for the district chiefs, which might disrupt all his arrangements in the government.
Deng Shaoqun frowned, and he finally realized that he seemed to have fallen into a trap. Was he so easy to let go of the leading power of government work
Fang Zhicheng had a clear plan for the 10 billion investment project. He threw out the bait of a military order and asked the two accompanying leaders to make a bet with him that everything was in Fang Zhicheng's plan.
Deng Shaoqun originally wanted to embarrass Fang Zhicheng, but now he found that Fang Zhicheng was using the situation to make him unable to move forward or backward. Because the price was a bit high, a district party secretary who could not control the government work was like a lame horse.
Forcing Fang Zhicheng to issue such a military order would cost too much.
"Director Gao, Minister Li, it seems that Comrade Shaoqun is not very willing to support my work." Fang Zhicheng said humorously, "Or maybe he thinks that I can't complete the 10 billion investment promotion project, and he is hesitant to protect me?"
Seeing Deng Shaoqun lost in thought, Lee Kuan Yew sighed inwardly that although Fang Zhicheng was young, his speech and behavior were very sophisticated. He was originally at a disadvantage, but in the blink of an eye, he forced the battle-hardened Deng Shaoqun into a state of being unable to advance or retreat.
Director Gao looked at Fang Zhicheng twice more, thinking to himself that this guy was no pushover. He originally wanted to say a few words to help him, but he didn't expect that he was also a man who would not give up even if he had the upper hand. On the first day he met the top leader, he asked for power from him. He was very bold.
Deng Shaoqun waved his hand and said with a smile: "Comrade Zhicheng, I can see that you are full of confidence. I would like to express my position in front of the two leaders today. The work of attracting investment in Xiaguang will be handed over to you. I will fully support your work."
Deng Shaoqun's words meant that Fang Zhicheng had the upper hand in the confrontation, because Deng Shaoqun no longer forced Fang Zhicheng to sign a military order.
Obviously, the redistribution of tasks among the deputy district mayor was something Deng Shaoqun could not accept.
Fang Zhicheng has a strong sense of judgment and is good at grasping the weaknesses of others.
Chapter 0450 The New District Chief Is Not a Good Person
The new district chief is not a good person, and the news will spread quickly. Because I don't know how many people are concerned about what kind of person Fang Zhicheng is and what changes will happen when he comes to Xiaguang District. Countless pairs of eyes are staring at the conference room. Although the smell of gunpowder is not strong, the confrontation just now is enough to let many people know about Fang Zhicheng, the acting district chief.
Deng Shaoqun was a man who had the final say in Xiaguang District and dared to argue with the municipal party committee secretary even in the city. But he was defeated in the first meeting with Fang Zhicheng, which fully demonstrated that Fang Zhicheng was not simple.
After the meeting, Deng Shaoqun set up a dinner party at the district party committee guesthouse, on the one hand to entertain Director Gao and Lee Kuan Yew, and on the other hand to welcome Fang Zhicheng.
At the dinner, Fang Zhicheng met several current standing committee members of Xiaguang District, including Liu Jinping, chairman of the District CPPCC, Yin Xuewen, deputy secretary of the District Party Committee, Mo Jin, executive deputy district mayor, Liu Ming, secretary of the District Discipline Inspection Commission, Zhang Quan, secretary of the District Political and Legal Affairs Commission, Yu Guoliang, director of the District Party Committee Propaganda Department, Yu Jinping, director of the District Party Committee Organization Department, and Kong Furong, director of the District Party Committee United Front Work Department. Except for Luo Yuanqing, political commissar of the district armed forces department, almost all the eleven standing committee members of Xiaguang District were present. Fang Zhicheng secretly sighed at Deng Shaoqun's appeal, but also felt the pressure.
Under Deng Shaoqun's call, the Xiaguang District has now become a complete piece. If I want to realize my ambitions, I must get Deng Shaoqun's support. If Deng Shaoqun is unwilling to support me, then I can only break the current situation, which is quite difficult.
Deng Shaoqun observed Fang Zhicheng carefully at the dinner party and became more and more frightened the more he watched. In dealing with people, Fang Zhicheng was very calm and steady, not at all like a young man. His youthful appearance was just a disguise, and the viciousness in his bones was even more intense than some old foxes who had been in the business for many years.
Deng Shaoqun realized that he had underestimated his enemy. Since Fang Zhicheng was only 28 years old, he thought that he was probably a show-off who was promoted suddenly and was just going through the motions in Xiaguang District and looking for a stepping stone.
But after getting along for a while, it can be seen from some details that Fang Zhicheng is not an easy young man to deal with.
Fang Zhicheng was also sizing up Deng Shaoqun. When he first met Deng Shaoqun, he was left with an impression of being rough, straightforward and forthright. But over time, he discovered that Deng Shaoqun was very delicate and handled problems very carefully. To give a simple example, everyone was sitting at the table drinking, and after half an hour, he could clearly remember how much each person had drunk.
Working with such a rough yet meticulous boss, I have to be extra cautious in the future.
At the dinner, Fang Zhicheng could always sense a cold light coming from the executive deputy district chief, Mo Jin. This was a man in the mid-life crisis, with sparse hair and a bloated figure. He and Mo Jin were the principal and deputy in the government work, so it was natural that he was hostile to him.
From beginning to end, Mo Jin did not take the initiative to toast Fang Zhicheng. Instead, Fang Zhicheng took the initiative to circle and toast Mo Jin.
Mo Jin glanced at Fang Zhicheng's wine glass and said with a sinister smile, "District Chief Fang, you walked around and didn't finish the whole cup of wine. How about this, after you finish this glass of wine, we'll drink again."
One hu of wine, two liang and five. Mo Jin's tone and attitude were a bit excessive under normal circumstances. After all, Fang Zhicheng was the top leader of the government and he was the second in command. However, the wine scene was not big or small. Now that everyone had drunk three rounds of wine, they were very open-minded and no one cared about these details.
Fang Zhicheng was in a difficult situation now. If he turned his face away and made a mess of things, he would naturally be looked down upon. But being forced by Mo Jin to drink two glasses was a bit of a concession. After all, Mo Jin would be his deputy in the future. Where was his prestige if he was embarrassed by his deputy during their first meal
Fang Zhicheng shook his head, retracted his hand holding the wine glass, and said with a smile: "Comrade Mo Jin, you and I will be comrades in the future. Since you don't want to drink with me, then forget it. Anyway, we will have many opportunities to eat together in the future. Let's keep this friendship for the time being and talk about it later."
When Fang Zhicheng slowly sat back, many people finally understood what had just happened.
Mo Jin wanted to make Fang Zhicheng look bad, so he deliberately made him drink more. However, Fang Zhicheng didn't give him any face at all and decisively left him aside.
Didn't you ask me to finish a whole hectoliter of wine before I drink with you? I won't drink with you!
Fang Zhicheng's somewhat willful behavior made Mo Jin extremely embarrassed. Although Fang Zhicheng was the acting district chief, he was nominally his immediate superior. How would he do his job in the future when he was completely ignored by his superior? His face flushed, and he wished he could dig a hole in the ground.
Deng Shaoqun watched every word of what happened just now. No one could say that Fang Zhicheng did anything wrong, because it was Mo Jin who put himself in too high a position at the beginning. Fang Zhicheng went over to toast him with good intentions, and he just responded with a glass of wine. That would have been fine, but he also deliberately played tricks.
Fang Zhicheng is very young, but he is the district chief after all. If Mo Jin embarrasses him, he should not be afraid that Fang Zhicheng will retaliate and embarrass him again.
After the dinner, everyone dispersed. Fang Zhicheng and Director Gao were arranged to stay in the guesthouse, and someone took them to their room.
Mo Jin was humiliated at the dinner, and then he drank alone until he was drunk. He grabbed Deng Shaoqun and complained, "Boss, what kind of person is that Fang? He doesn't even have all the hair on his mouth, but he dares to glare at me. I don't accept him."
Deng Shaoqun raised his eyebrows. There were many people around, and Mo Jin's words would definitely fall into the ears of others. He cursed: "Mo Baldy, you've drunk too much. Stop talking nonsense. Aren't you afraid of losing face?"
Although Mo Jin was drunk, he was afraid of Deng Shaoqun in his heart. He burped and did not dare to continue complaining. This shows how powerful Deng Shaoqun is.
After Fang Zhicheng returned to the room, he took out his notebook and wrote down all the people he had met at the wine table today. Then he wrote down his impressions of these people one by one. When he wrote about Mo Jin, he gave four words: "overestimating one's own abilities".
Coming to the Xiaguang District, it is very likely that I have taken the position he was trying to get. Although I feel resentful, I cannot show it. I did not give him face at the dinner today, but in the eyes of others, everyone will think that Mo Jin was at fault first.
