Zhan Hao was a little caught off guard. There were still five minutes before work time. According to usual circumstances, everyone probably hadn't recovered yet.
As expected by Zhan Hao, Fang Zhicheng walked in front, followed closely by Zhan Hao. They walked into several offices in succession. The staff all seemed a little lazy. Some were making tea, some were reading newspapers, and some were eating breakfast.
Zhan Hao was very depressed when he saw Fang Zhicheng remained silent. This new district chief was really powerful. On the first day in office, he was ready to rectify the office environment of the district government. As the person in charge of the comprehensive department, he was afraid that he would be in big trouble.
After walking around every government office, Fang Zhicheng did not make any comments. After arriving at his own office, he waved at Zhan Hao and said calmly, "There is nothing for you to do now. Go and get busy first."
Zhan Hao originally thought that he was going to face a violent lesson from Fang Zhicheng, but he didn't expect Fang Zhicheng to let him go so calmly, which surprised him greatly.
After leaving the office nervously, Zhan Hao suddenly saw Jiao Zhengcai, the director of the government office. He hurried over and reported, "Director Jiao, District Chief Fang has arrived. He just went to every office area and seemed to be in a bad mood."
Jiao Zhengcai is an old hand. He smiled calmly and said, "Be patient. Every new leader wants to establish his authority. Even if we don't give him a chance, he will still find fault with it."
Zhan Hao asked doubtfully, "Then just ignore it?"
Jiao Zhengcai pointed to his ear and whispered, "It goes in one ear and out the other. For such a hot-blooded leader, it's better to just fool him."
Zhan Hao was a little surprised. He knew that Jiao Zhengcai was not the kind of person who would do things perfunctorily. The only possibility was that he had received some instructions.
Jiao Zhengcai walked past the district chief's office, tilted his head to take a look, did not go in to ask for instructions, and then walked directly to the end of the corridor.
Zhan Hao did not leave in a hurry. He stood at the stairs and waited for a while, and found that Jiao Zhengcai finally walked into the office of Mo Jin, the executive deputy district chief. He understood that Jiao Zhengcai was ready to stand on Mo Jin's side.
It will be difficult for Fang Zhicheng, the new district chief, to carry out his work in the future because Xiaguang District will not easily accept him.
Chapter 0454: Hidden Dragon in the Second Line
Fang Zhicheng did not call a meeting to gather the district government leaders together and give them a lecture under the pretext of bad office atmosphere, because he knew that even if others were respectful to him on the surface, if he did not take some substantive actions, it would only be a formality. If you want to be feared or respected by others, you must show your ability and make them obey you to the core.
Fang Zhicheng sighed, turned on his computer, and retrieved a document from his mailbox. It contained an introduction to the members of the Xiaguang District government team, which Song Wendi arranged for Tong Siqing to send to him.
Song Wendi left Yinzhou and became the secretary of Qiongjin Municipal Party Committee. He did not take Xiaoyu with him, but took Tong Siqing with him, which surprised Fang Zhicheng. However, he later heard that it was Tong Siqing who took the initiative to ask for it.
It has been a long time since I last met Tong Siqing. I missed her a little. Fang Zhicheng thought about it and called Tong Siqing. Tong Siqing lowered her voice and said, "Wait a moment."
After a few dozen seconds, Tong Siqing said in a normal voice: "I was in a meeting just now. What's the matter?"
Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "Nothing special, I just miss you."
Tong Siqing felt warm in her heart and whispered, "I thought you had forgotten me."
Fang Zhicheng said quickly: "It's unforgettable. How can I forget it just like that?"
Tong Siqing spat, “Sweet words can kill people.”
Fang Zhicheng smiled and invited: "Hanzhou is very close to Qiongjin. If you are free, can we get together?"
Tong Siqing said: "Since you feel so close, why don't you come to me?"
Fang Zhicheng said: "Because I'm lazy!"
Tong Siqing was silent, sighed, and said, "Okay, I'll come find you when I'm free. By the way, you're not calling me about this, right? If you have anything to say, tell me right away. There's an economic work meeting going on inside, and I can't leave for too long, or I'll be criticized by my boss."
Fang Zhicheng clicked the mouse and whispered to Mo Jin on the file: "I want to know more about Mo Jin. The information you gave me before was too simple and I couldn't tell anything."
Tong Siqing thought for a moment and said, "I will help you investigate in the next two days. Wait for my news."
Tong Siqing was in a meeting and some things were not easy to say, so Fang Zhicheng did not insist. He sighed deeply and suddenly felt lonely and powerless.
After coming to Xiaguang District and becoming the second-in-command of the Party and government, Fang Zhicheng suddenly found that he had no support behind him and everything was dark before his eyes. When he was in Dongtai before, Song Wendi supported him, and even after he left, Qiu Hengde still looked after him. But now, Fang Zhicheng came to a strange city, and he might be an alien in their eyes.
However, this kind of loneliness is something that must be experienced in a career. One must build the country with one's own hands. If one always relies on external forces, one will never be able to reach the pinnacle of power.
Fang Zhicheng did not act rashly. He first had to collect enough information. Only by knowing both himself and the enemy could he win every battle. He needed to understand his opponent's personality, preferences and flaws clearly before he could strike the right target and ultimately make a fatal blow.
Fang Zhicheng's silence surprised Mo Jin.
Judging from his performance at the dinner, Fang Zhicheng was a young official with a strong sense of personality and passion. When he arrived in Xiaguang District, he would definitely rush forward regardless of everything. He also made various preparations to deal with Fang Zhicheng's many difficulties.
But unexpectedly, Fang Zhicheng was very calm. He did not make any statement in his first week at work. It was originally thought that he would adjust the division of labor of the deputy district mayors at the district mayor's office meeting, but Fang Zhicheng did not make any decision.
This feeling of calmness made Mo Jin feel very uncomfortable, just like the calm before a storm, making him restless.
Jiao Zhengcai pushed the door open and asked in a low voice, "Director Mo, are you looking for me?"
Mo Jin pointed at the soft leather sofa and said in a deep voice, "Sit down and talk."
Jiao Zhengcai felt that the atmosphere was a bit depressing, and he sat upright. Mo Jin poured him a cup of tea and expressed his concerns, "I asked you to investigate Fang Zhicheng, has there been any movement recently?"
Jiao Zhengcai shook his head and smiled bitterly, "It's too hard to figure out the whereabouts of District Chief Fang. On his first day in office, he visited all the offices. I thought he would use this as an excuse to get mad, but it turned out that nothing happened. A week passed, and he worked from 9 to 5 every day, rarely talked to anyone, and didn't interact with anyone."
Mo Jin's brows furrowed even more tightly. He rubbed his temple and said, "Is he planning some conspiracy? Is his apparent calm just to paralyze us?"
Jiao Zhengcai pondered for a while and smiled bitterly, "I really can't guess what tricks he will play. However, he did reveal a lot of handles. On the second day after arriving in Hanzhou, he moved out of the guesthouse and lived in a high-end community, and then bought a luxury car worth 600,000 or 700,000 yuan. I wonder if Fang Zhicheng is not as complicated as we imagined. He just used Xiaguang District as a springboard. As for the conflict between you and him, it was not intentional, but his nature."
Jiao Zhengcai's analysis made sense, but Mo Jin did not dare to underestimate the enemy and said, "I arranged for someone to go to Dongtai City and collect a lot of information about Fang Zhicheng. He is not a simple person. The fall of the two top leaders was directly or indirectly related to him. Now he is so calm, the only possibility is that he has something on us and is waiting for the right time to show his fangs."
Jiao Zhengcai frowned. In his eyes, Mo Jin had always been a resourceful man. He knew that Mo Jin was not worrying too much about Fang Zhicheng, but Fang Zhicheng's behavior was too abnormal. He had been in office for so long and had not even spoken loudly. Mo Jin forced himself to find out what tricks Fang Zhicheng had, making it impossible for him to start.
