However, Yu Jinping did not have much to do. If a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. Deng Shaoqun dug his own grave and ended his era by surrendering himself, but Yu Jinping still had a glimmer of hope and tried to make a difference in the officialdom of Xiaguang District.
This is the charm of power. As long as it gives people a glimmer of light, no one is willing to indulge in darkness.
As Yu Jinping was walking down the stairs, he happened to run into Public Security Bureau Chief Xiang Xin. He was slightly startled and took the initiative to greet him, "Chief Xiang, where are you going?"
Xiang Xin pointed upstairs and said with a smile: "Boss, you want to talk to me. I'm afraid you want to tell me about some work."
Yu Jinping smiled and said, "Then hurry over. I just came out of the boss's office, so I shouldn't be busy for the time being."
After saying that, Yu Jinping continued to go downstairs. A trace of confusion flashed across Xiang Xin's face. He wondered what was wrong with Yu Jinping today. He actually took the initiative to greet him. This was unprecedented.
Yu Jinping took the initiative to greet Xiang Xin, and that was intentional. He already had a network of relationships in his mind, and Xiang Xin was undoubtedly one of the people closest to Fang Zhicheng in this network. So if there were personnel adjustments, Xiang Xin would have the best chance of being placed in an important position.
Why did the Standing Committee today emphasize political and legal work? In fact, this is also a signal light. If nothing unexpected happens, the political and legal system will face a storm, and Xiang Xin will be the ultimate winner.
It can even be said that the political and legal work conference was actually a fuse lit by Fang Zhicheng in order to support Xiang Xin's promotion to power, which ultimately confirmed Xiang Xin's dominance over the political and legal system and indirectly allowed Fang Zhicheng to control the political and legal system.
Fang Zhicheng has unique advantages in government affairs. If he can fully control politics and law, the entire Xiaguang District will be under his control. In fact, even when Deng Shaoqun was still in office, the power in his hands was not so concentrated.
Yu Jinping sighed deeply. The control displayed by the young district party secretary was much more sophisticated than he had imagined. Every step he took contained profound meaning, which could only be understood after careful tasting. It was really surprising.
Xiang Xin entered Fang Zhicheng's office. Naturally, he was not as cautious as Yu Jinping. He sat on the sofa, poured himself a cup of tea, and said with a smile: "Boss, I just saw Yu Jinping. He was wiping his sweat as he walked downstairs. Was he scared by you?"
Fang Zhicheng rolled his eyes at Xiang Xin and said, "Do I look scary?"
Xiang Xin drank the tea in one gulp and replied obliquely: "Power looks scary!"
Fang Zhicheng smiled faintly and said, "I told you the truth. I called you here today mainly to discuss Ping An Xia Guang's work. What do you think?"
Xiang Xin pushed the teacup aside and said in a deep voice: "If we want to make Peaceful Sunshine not just a slogan, we must carry out special actions. But once the special actions are carried out, it will inevitably cause social unrest."
Fang Zhicheng frowned and said firmly: "Go ahead and do it. I will be your strongest support!"
Chapter 0596 Ignite Blood and Passion
Xia Lanshan and Hu Gang often appear together in TV news, such as participating in research and symposiums. Wherever Xia Lanshan is, Hu Gang is there. Some people call Hu Gang Xia Lanshan's shadow, which does not mean that Hu Gang and Xia Lanshan have a good relationship, but that Hu Gang has always lived under Xia Lanshan's shadow.
In Hanzhou, Xia Lanshan far surpassed Hu Gang in both reputation and power, and Hu Gang also clearly realized this, so he put away all his edges and edges and became a low-key mayor. Even before Zhao Liang was transferred to the Party School for study because of the Palace Bar incident, Hu Gang was even slightly suppressed by Zhao Liang in terms of government.
Hu Gang sat in Xia Lanshan's office with a calm expression, but his thoughts were a little complicated. Judging from Xia Lanshan's attitude, there must be important things to discuss today. However, he didn't say anything and left himself aside. He didn't dare to ask proactively, so the atmosphere was a little awkward.
After waiting for another ten minutes, Xia Lanshan took off his black-framed glasses, took a sip of tea, and then said, "Old Hu, I'm sorry. I had to read some documents just now and kept you waiting."
In terms of age, Xia Lanshan is seven or eight years older than Hu Gang, but he is used to calling Hu Gang that, so the entire municipal party committee and government privately call Hu Gang "Old Hu". Hu Gang is not impressed by this title, and said with a smile: "Secretary Lanshan, you are too polite. Things have their priorities, and naturally we should focus on the work at hand first."
Xia Lanshan nodded, picked out three documents from the pile of materials he had just reviewed, smiled and walked to the sofa, handed them to Hu Gang, and said, "These are the few replies you need. Take a look at the opinions and see if there are any inappropriate points. If there are, we can discuss it."
Hu Gang read it carefully, shook his head and smiled, "Your opinions are all very pertinent. I will take it back and modify it according to your wishes, and try to implement it as soon as possible."
Xia Lanshan nodded and said, "Both of your suggestions are very good and hit the real situation in Hanzhou now. The first is about the creation of a star hospital. There is no five-star hospital in the city now, so once the people have difficult and complicated medical problems, they dare not seek medical treatment in the city. To solve this problem, we must improve the medical infrastructure. Next year, the government will allocate a part of the funds to support this project first. Secondly, the construction of rural cultural squares is also a good suggestion, but building 50 rural cultural squares in the city, isn't this a bit too many? I'm afraid it involves a lot of money, right?"
Hu Gang smiled and said, "Regarding the issue of rural cultural squares, the Provincial Government's Department of Culture has corresponding supporting funds. If we can successfully apply for them, the towns and villages will not need to spend much money to build cultural squares."
Xia Lanshan frowned and said nothing. The country has been calling for the construction of new rural culture, and rural cultural squares are undoubtedly a form of enriching the leisure and entertainment of villagers. However, this project has huge hidden dangers. Once the supporting funds from the Department of Culture are issued, it may cause hidden dangers such as misuse of funds and false projects. There are many negative effects that must be prevented.
Xia Lanshan did not reject Hu Gang directly. He sighed and said, "If we really want to create a rural cultural square, we need a more detailed plan, including how to regulate the use of the provincial supporting funds, how to ensure the quality of the project, and how to prevent corruption. Once a more complete plan is formed, we can discuss it at the Standing Committee meeting."
Hu Gang heard the hidden meaning of Xia Lanshan's words and thought to himself that although Xia Lanshan had changed his conservative governing style recently, his inner caution remained unchanged. Hu Gang nodded and smiled, "Okay, I will improve the plan according to your wishes."
Xia Lanshan nodded and smiled slightly, "I asked you to come here today because I actually have something I want to discuss with you."
Hu Gang was slightly startled, then smiled and said, "If you have any instructions, please let Secretary Lanshan give them to you!"
Xia Lanshan said in a deep voice: "Have you ever heard of the Xiaguang District?"
Hu Gang quickly realized what Xia Lanshan wanted to discuss. He was probably targeting Fang Zhicheng, the new secretary of Xiaguang District. Hu Gang said, "There has been a lot of movement in Xiaguang District recently. In particular, a series of sweeping actions have been launched in the political and legal system to rectify social trends and prevent the prevalence of unhealthy trends. However, this has also caused heated discussions among everyone. Large-scale actions have also affected the normal lives of ordinary people. Some people have complained that many people have used the rectification actions to seek personal gain..."
Xia Lanshan nodded and said expressionlessly: "Do you think this approach is right or wrong?"
Hu Gang couldn't guess what Xia Lanshan was thinking, so he could only say, "Of course there are advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that it has indeed changed the social atmosphere, but the disadvantage is that it has caused public resentment and social turmoil."
Xia Lanshan thought to himself that Hu Gang was becoming more and more steady in his words and actions, so he continued to ask, "Then how do you think we should handle this matter?"
Hu Gang was slightly startled and sighed: "The rectification campaign in Xiaguang District has been going on for some time. I think the municipal party committee has called a halt to it. After all, there are a lot of complaint materials now, and there are even related complaint materials on the Internet, which maliciously vilify the image of the government."
Hu Gang knew that Xia Lanshan would not give up until he told him what he thought, so he simply followed Xia Lanshan's usual cautious nature and put forward his own opinions.
Xia Lanshan pondered for a moment, shook his head, and said, "Old Hu, in this matter, I think we need to add fuel to the fire instead of letting it settle!"
Hu Gang could not hide the surprise in his eyes, because he realized that he had guessed Xia Lanshan's thoughts wrong.
Isn't Xia Lanshan always seeking stability? Why did he suddenly become so radical? This is obviously an action that will make the Hanzhou government unstable, but Xia Lanshan not only did not stop it, but also fanned the flames and added fuel to the fire. Is he crazy
Xia Lanshan said solemnly: "Old Hu, I have been reflecting deeply these days, thinking about what I have brought to Hanzhou. As a result, I found that I am useless. As the common people say, I am a squad leader who is too cautious. We asked before, who is lazy in politics? In fact, I am the biggest lazy maker. Xiaguang District should be said to have set a good example for us. We have been emphasizing the need for change and innovation, but we have never been able to take a key step boldly. We might as well take this incident as an opportunity to rectify the official atmosphere in Hanzhou, use the political and legal system as a breakthrough point, and set off a wave of social reform."
It was the first time that Hu Gang heard such sincerity from Xia Lanshan. He had heard Xia Lanshan read many long speeches at various meetings, but most of them were dogmatic and emotionless speeches. But at this moment, he heard self-blame, reflection and determination to reform from Xia Lanshan's mouth.
Hu Gang had to admit that he was also ignited by Xia Lanshan's enthusiasm. He nodded solemnly and said, "Secretary Lanshan, I support you!"
