"We must not have a fluke mentality and try to develop everything and grab everything. Such a hodgepodge will not bring good results. First, we do not have enough energy to develop many fields; second, the economic depth is too wide, the industries developed are too diverse, and nothing is refined, which will only lead to unclear regional development goals."

Mo Jin sighed, "Director Fang, I understand what you mean, but if we try a completely new field, isn't it very risky?"

Fang Zhicheng looked at Mo Jin seriously and said, "Risks and opportunities coexist. If everyone wants to go with the flow and follow the rules, then how can Xiaguang District stand out?"

Mo Jin's face showed embarrassment and he stopped talking. Fang Zhicheng's words were light, but Mo Jin could hear dissatisfaction from him. The working state of the entire Xiaguang District was still too lazy. Everyone was not motivated and took one step at a time.

Fang Zhicheng sighed, tapped his finger on the table, and said in a serious tone: "Comrades, the topic discussed in today's meeting is actually a bit abstract, because discussing the economic direction is a macro issue, but judging from everyone's speeches, the meeting is necessary. Because everyone's attitude towards work is worth pondering. I'm afraid many people have this idea. Now Xiaguang District is not as good as others, but it is better than others. As long as the government operates normally, they will have a bite to eat. I have to remind you not to sit in the well and watch the sky, and be complacent, because every time we are lazy now, it will shackle Xiaguang District. Now the national economic trend is not very good. The European subprime mortgage crisis has affected the domestic economy. Xiaguang District is also affected. The obvious situation is that factories that rely on exports have no orders and can only lay off a large number of employees and cut costs. The unemployment rate has increased significantly."

"But!" Fang Zhicheng paused for a moment, "Opportunities and dangers always coexist. Now the national economy is in a depression. This is the best opportunity for Xiaguang District to accelerate its development and achieve overtaking."

Cheng Hao said at this time: "District Chief Fang, you are right. We should not only see the difficulties, but should look further into the future." After he finished speaking, he glanced at Mo Jin with an indifferent look.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment, and the venue became silent. Mo Jin finally couldn't sit still anymore and said, "District Head Fang, I agree with your opinion. I support giving up industrial development and turning to the service industry."

Fang Zhicheng was very satisfied with Mo Jin's attitude. He smiled and said, "Today's meeting was very successful. First of all, I am very happy with Lao Mo's attitude because he questioned my point of view. If there is no questioning and no friction in the meeting, it is not a good thing, because personal opinions are always omissions and need others to supplement them to make the ideas perfect."

Mo Jin heard Fang Zhicheng say this and smiled: “District Chief Fang, I am a very straightforward person. I have something to say, so I hope you don’t mind it.”

Fang Zhicheng waved his hand and said, "Lao Mo, I admire people like you who are straightforward."

Chapter 0531 Why are you crying

At the Xiaguang District Government Work Conference, everyone was clear-sighted. At today's meeting, Mo Jin tried to fight back, but was suppressed by Fang Zhicheng. This means that Mo Jin has completely surrendered, and Xiaguang District has been firmly controlled by Fang Zhicheng. This is also because Fang Zhicheng has achieved a phased victory in the confrontation with Deng Shaoqun.

Everyone couldn't help but weigh the possibility of a district chief who could compete with the district party secretary and not be at a disadvantage, especially Mo Jin, who had to keep a low profile for the time being.

Looking back to half a year ago, every time Mo Jin met Fang Zhicheng, he showed arrogance in his every move. Now he is like a completely different person, and in front of Fang Zhicheng he is just a well-behaved cat.

When Mo Jin walked back to the office, he kept his head down. He was in a bad mood, so he didn't approach the deputy district chief who was close to him. Of course, on the one hand, they knew they needed to keep a certain distance from Mo Jin. On the contrary, he moved closer to Cheng Hao and Zhang Xiaoliang, because these two people are popular figures in the government and are highly regarded by Fang Zhicheng.

Fang Zhicheng returned to the office, and Zhang Xiaoliang followed him in, complaining, "Mo Jin didn't know how to read people's faces at the meeting today."

Fang Zhicheng waved his hand, thinking that Zhang Xiaoliang had many advantages, but he liked to report others behind their backs, which was not a good habit. At least he didn't like this kind of person. He said lightly: "Mo Jin also has his own position. Overturning the idea of industrial development means that the second phase of the industrial park needs to be repositioned, which brings great difficulties to his work."

Zhang Xiaoliang said disdainfully: "The industrial park was already lifeless, so overthrowing it and starting over is not necessarily a bad thing. Mo Jin is just afraid that if he overthrows it and starts over, all the achievements he was proud of in the past will become a bubble."

Fang Zhicheng took a deep breath. Zhang Xiaoliang's judgment was still very sharp. The reason why Mo Jin still wanted to fight for it today was because he knew that it had infringed on his own interest area. The industrial park was Mo Jin's most important private territory, and no one could touch it. Although he knew that the trend was inevitable, he still had to try his best to fight for it.

Zhang Xiaoliang exaggerated some of Mo Jin's past actions in the industrial park, and naturally belittled his character in many ways.

Fang Zhicheng's thoughts had long been transferred to other aspects. The reason why Zhang Xiaoliang slandered Mo Jin was because they had direct contradictions and conflicts. Fang Zhicheng was now at a higher level because both Mo Jin and Zhang Xiaoliang were his pawns. Therefore, Fang Zhicheng would not be too involved in the struggle between Zhang Xiaoliang and Mo Jin.

What Fang Zhicheng is considering now is what to do if he does not promote the industrial economy and focuses on the transformation to the service industry or other tertiary industries. Fang Zhicheng had many ideas before, but they were all ruled out one by one.

Fang Zhicheng waved his hand and said, "I don't care what Mo Jin thinks. I have the final say on how Xiaguang District will develop in the future."

Zhang Xiaoliang was shocked by Fang Zhicheng's simple words. It can be seen that Fang Zhicheng has great ambition and courage.

Suddenly remembering something, Zhang Xiaoliang asked with a smile: "District Chief Fang, I have something personal to ask you."

Fang Zhicheng said, "Go ahead."

Zhang Xiaoliang whispered, "Are you still in contact with the female teacher named Jiang?"

Fang Zhicheng frowned, showing an unhappy look on his face, and said: "She and I are just ordinary friends. Is it important to contact her or not?"

Zhang Xiaoliang originally thought that Fang Zhicheng and Jiang Pei had developed into a romantic relationship, but he didn't expect Fang Zhicheng to deny this relationship at all. He thought to himself that he had overestimated his relationship with Fang Zhicheng and could not gain Fang Zhicheng's trust. He was not comfortable talking to himself about such private matters.

Zhang Xiaoliang quickly explained, "District Head Fang, this is what happened. I met Teacher Jiang at a dinner party the other day and thought she was very qualified. The government office just happened to be short of someone to connect with the education system, so I wanted to transfer her to the government office."

Fang Zhicheng waved his hand, knowing Zhang Xiaoliang's good intentions. This guy was trying to curry favor with him by helping Jiang Pei adjust her job. He thought again, because he had snatched food from a tiger's mouth that day, the entire Xiaguang District education system might think that Jiang Pei had an affair with him.

He not only sighed secretly, but also said: "For this kind of thing, you can just make the decision and solve it yourself. You don't need to ask me for instructions."

Zhang Xiaoliang nodded quickly. In his opinion, Fang Zhicheng's failure to make a decision actually meant that he had implicitly agreed to his arrangement. He secretly thought that his young leader was really good at pretending, and he acted very well, pretending that he had nothing to do with her. However, Zhang Xiaoliang was still sure that Fang Zhicheng must have a good impression of Jiang Pei, otherwise he would not have made such an unexpected move that day.

As for Fang Zhicheng, he felt extremely emotional. After reaching a certain level, the people below him would try to figure out his thoughts, and sometimes he could not tell them clearly what he was thinking because he had to retain the mystery of his superiors. But in order to maintain this mystery, sometimes certain behaviors would inevitably be misinterpreted.

So Fang Zhicheng simply didn't explain and let the misunderstanding grow deeper.

When it was almost time to get off work, Fang Zhicheng received a call from Shen Wei. He felt mixed emotions because this willful young woman had already made up her mind to go abroad next month.

Fang Zhicheng sighed and said, "Can't you think about it again?"

Shen Wei curled her lips and smiled: "Why? Are you afraid of taking responsibility?"

Fang Zhicheng smiled bitterly and said, "No! I just think you're too lonely living abroad."

Shen Wei was silent for a moment, then said, "Won't you come to see me? Or go to school with me?"

Fang Zhicheng shook his head and said, "I am a government official. If I go out, the procedures and processes are very complicated. However, as long as I have the chance, I will definitely visit you."

Shen Wei smiled sweetly and said, "That's what a human being would say. Otherwise, I would have almost called you a beast. Don't worry, my father has arranged everything. Someone will take care of my daily life over there, and I won't encounter any trouble."

Fang Zhicheng asked in confusion: "Didn't your father ask anything?"

Shen Wei's tone became solemn and serious, and she said, "Of course, he slapped me in anger and forced me to tell him which bastard had slept with her daughter."
