Fang Zhicheng used a method of winning people's hearts and minds by adopting an open office environment, which attracted many people who were originally sitting on the bench to come and put themselves out. In this way, he could dispel their doubts and allow himself to integrate into the official atmosphere of Xiaguang District more quickly.
The urban village renovation project was a major turning point. Although it did not make much noise and its aftermath was controlled, it changed the situation in which the government had been dominated by Ma's forces for many years.
Mo Jin frowned and said angrily, "Are we going to let him eat away at our power step by step?"
Jiao Zhengcai sighed and said, "A few days ago, I went to see Secretary Deng and offered to transfer out of the government office. Secretary Deng did not agree and invited Fang Zhicheng to talk about my problem. As a result, the conversation between the two of us ended unpleasantly. In other words, we are not alone in the current battle. Secretary Deng is probably dissatisfied with Fang Zhicheng."
Mo Jin's eyes revealed a complex expression, and he said, "You mean, we shouldn't take any action for the time being, and wait for Secretary Deng and Fang Zhicheng to collide?"
Jiao Zhengcai nodded and said, "We have suffered too much loss in the reconstruction of the urban village, especially since the old district chief has decided to withdraw from the dispute. Now we need to recuperate. If Secretary Deng is willing to restrain Fang Zhicheng, this is undoubtedly a good thing."
Mo Jin nodded to Jiao Zhengcai with satisfaction and said, "You made a good move."
Jiao Zhengcai sighed inwardly. This move was very risky. If Deng Shaoqun didn't take over, he would really have to leave the government office. The government office had great power. No matter which department he was transferred to, it would be a big loss for him.
Of course, Jiao Zhengcai chose to do this because he was pushed to the edge of the cliff. The conflict between Mo Jin and Fang Zhicheng seemed to be huge, but the real awkwardness was Jiao Zhengcai. He was the head of the government office, and the district chief did not trust him, which made it very inconvenient for him to act, and a simple report might be rejected.
Jiao Zhengcai realized that he had to reverse the current situation, otherwise, he would be kicked out of the government office by Fang Zhicheng one day, and if that day came, he would not have the initiative and might suffer a terrible fall.
Chapter 0487 Nickname: Playboy
The officialdom of Xiaguang District finally began to appear treacherous and unpredictable. After a month or two of silence, the acting district chief Fang Zhicheng began to slowly gain power and gradually took power into his pocket. What caught Deng Shaoqun off guard was that he did not expect that the newly promoted Zhang Xiaoliang was actually Fang Zhicheng's man. When Zhang Xiaoliang was in the Statistics Bureau, he acted very low-key and it was hard to see what talent he had. But after he came to the district government, he was like a different person, mixing like a fish in water, and even vaguely formed a network, and the core of this network was Fang Zhicheng.
Deng Shaoqun originally wanted to put pressure on Fang Zhicheng at the People's Congress, but judging from the current trend, if he made things difficult for Fang Zhicheng at the People's Congress, it would seem that his motives were impure, because Fang Zhicheng is still very popular in the district government.
Everything developed as Fang Zhicheng expected. The game between him and Deng Shaoqun was long, and he had to first narrow the gap between them and make up for his own shortcomings. What Fang Zhicheng lacked most now was the support of his subordinates, and through Zhang Xiaoliang, he slowly accumulated popularity.
On Saturday morning, Fang Zhicheng asked Guo Jinyuan to drive his car back to Yinzhou. Guo Jinyuan's home was in Dongtai. Fang Zhicheng asked him to drop him off at the Municipal Party Committee's family compound and then let him drive his Volvo home alone. Guo Jinyuan and his wife were now living in different places. Fang Zhicheng once asked if this would affect their relationship. Guo Jinyuan smiled and said, "We are an old couple. We see each other all day long and feel a little bored. It's good to go out and breathe some fresh air. There is a saying that a short separation is better than a new marriage."
However, Fang Zhicheng is still thinking about finding a comfortable job for Guo Jinyuan's wife. When he first arrived at the district government, many affairs were difficult to handle. Now he is gradually taking control of the pace and has arranged Zhang Xiaoliang to help arrange a good job for Guo Jinyuan's wife as soon as possible.
A secretary uses it for three years, a driver uses it for a lifetime.
After more than a year of getting along, Fang Zhicheng found that Guo Jinyuan was a good person, meeting his requirements for a driver. He drove steadily, was good at boxing, could occasionally work as a bodyguard, was a quiet talker, and could protect his privacy and secrets. Of course, more importantly, Fang Zhicheng believed that Guo Jinyuan was loyal to him. After all, if it weren't for him, Guo Jinyuan's life would not be on the right track.
When they arrived at Qiu Hengde's house, they found that only one of the two doors was closed. Before they could ring the doorbell, they heard hurried footsteps. Lele had been paying attention to the door. She quickly opened the door and smiled sweetly, "Uncle Fang, you are finally here?"
Fang Zhicheng put his hands under Lele's armpits, lifted her up in the air and spun her around, saying, "Oh, my dear Lele, you have grown a lot taller."
Lele giggled for a while, and when Fang Zhicheng put her on the ground, she reached out and held Fang Zhicheng's big hand, and said with a smile: "Come in quickly, I'll show you something fun."
Fang Zhicheng quickly changed into slippers and came to the living room, where he found the Yanjing Olympic Games mascot Fuwa placed on the sofa. With less than two months to the opening of the Olympics, a trend has been created in the country, and things related to the Olympics can easily form a market.
Fang Zhicheng grabbed one in his hand and said with a smile: "So Lele already has a toy. I bought you a birthday present and now I'm thinking whether to give it to you."
"I want it!" Lele tugged at Fang Zhicheng's clothes and begged.
Fang Zhicheng nodded and took out toys and snacks from his bag. Xie Yuxin heard the noise and came out of the kitchen. Seeing that Fang Zhicheng had bought imported chocolate, she said in a somewhat reproachful tone, "Lele's teeth are badly decayed now. Why did you buy chocolate? It's bad for teeth."
When Lele heard Xie Yuxin say this, she quickly hugged the bag that Fang Zhicheng brought and said pitifully, "Mom, this is what Uncle Fang bought for me. You can't be cruel to us."
Fang Zhicheng felt a little sorry for her. Seeing Xie Yuxin trying to grab the bag, he deliberately took a step forward. Xie Yuxin was caught off guard and half of her body crashed into Fang Zhicheng's arms. Her face turned red, and she stamped her feet and said angrily, "Get out of the way!"
Fang Zhicheng touched his nose and felt a little itchy. He smiled and took a step forward, whispering, "No, everything is for Lele."
Lele was laughing and hiding behind Fang Zhicheng, making faces at Xie Yuxin. Xie Fang happened to see this scene. She smiled and said, "Yuxin, stop making trouble with them. Come over and help. We have to eat after your brother-in-law comes back."
"Sister, what nonsense are you talking about?" Xie Yuxin rolled her eyes at Fang Zhicheng. She was very sensitive to the three words "father and son".
Xie Fang pointed at Fang Zhicheng and Lele and said, "Look at how happy they are. Even if they were father and daughter, their relationship would probably be just like this."
"Sister, you have entered menopause early. Your speech is illogical and you are always a chatterbox." Xie Yuxin was also forced into a corner. Otherwise, how could such a well-mannered female anchor say such a thing
Xie Yuxin entered the kitchen, and Xie Fang walked to Fang Zhicheng and said with a smile: "Xu Ying is away because of something, so I can't handle it. Yuxin came here early today and even asked for leave. I guess it was partly for Lele and partly for you."
Lele suddenly whispered, "Uncle, let me tell you something. Mom spent a long time changing clothes before going out today, and kept asking me which one looked better. I think Mom wore those beautiful clothes just for you to see."
When Xie Fang heard Lele say this, she laughed out loud and said, "You little rascal, how could you betray your mother so easily?"
Lele laughed and said, "Uncle Fang is the closest to me. He is not an outsider. I am willing to tell him everything."
Fang Zhicheng touched Lele's hair with sympathy and explained with a smile: "Lele, today is your birthday, but you have to remember that in fact, mother is the greatest and hardest person on everyone's birthday, because she needs to spend a lot of energy and courage to allow you to be born safely into this world. Later, you must thank your mother."
Lele's little face showed a serious look, and he nodded and said, "I understand."
Fang Zhicheng and Lele played in the living room for about ten minutes, and Qiu Hengde pushed the door open. He is now the third in command of Yinzhou and holds a very important position, but his work is also very hard. He looked a little haggard compared to the last time they met, but his eyes were still bright.
As soon as they sat down at the table, Xie Yuxin's phone rang. She ran over to answer the call, then came to the dining table and handed it to Lele, saying with a smile, "Your godmother called you. Say hello to her right away."
After Lele took the phone, he chatted with Du Xi for a few words obediently, and then handed it to Xie Yuxin.
Xie Yuxin walked to the balcony and asked with concern: "Are you used to filming the MV in the island country these days? I heard that there are always earthquakes there recently. Are you not affected?"
Du Xi said with emotion: "The houses here are very solid and can withstand earthquakes, but I'm not used to the food here. Now I eat instant noodles every day, which causes constipation."
Xie Yuxin was speechless for a while, then she comforted him, "When you are alone outside, remember to protect yourself."
Du Xi smiled and said, "Don't worry, there are so many bodyguards following me. It's not easy for me to get lost. By the way, today is Lele's birthday. Is that big carrot here?"
