Fang Zhicheng knew the reason why Song Wendi wanted to convene an emergency Standing Committee meeting.
This morning, while jogging, Song Wendi met a few begging children on the road. After asking them briefly, he found that the origins of these children were very suspicious. After further questioning, Song Wendi realized that he had encountered a gang that abducted and sold children for begging, so after work, he asked Fang Zhicheng to call Ding Nengren and request an emergency Standing Committee meeting to discuss solutions.
Recently, there have been frequent cases of children being abducted in Yinzhou. Fang Zhicheng initially suspected that this gang had some connection with it. After the emergency standing committee meeting ended in the afternoon, Song Wendi issued an instruction to mobilize all police forces to catch this criminal gang off guard. Xia Xiang looked unhappy at the meeting because he believed that Song Wendi was trying to reach out to the public security, procuratorial, judicial and other departments by doing this.
When they returned to the office, Song Wendi looked unwell, so Fang Zhicheng made a cup of tea and brought it in.
Song Wendi suddenly stopped Fang Zhicheng and said, "The atmosphere at today's Standing Committee meeting was very abnormal. Did you feel it?"
As Song Wendi's secretary, Fang Zhicheng can attend every Standing Committee meeting, which helps Fang Zhicheng provide Song Wendi with some simple suggestions.
The municipal party secretary is also a human being, he needs reminders and think tanks.
Some people compare secretaries to three tools. First, they are large-capacity storage cards. They need to have a strong memory so that they can give an accurate answer when the municipal party secretary asks about something. Second, they are fast and intelligent filters. Various things happen in a city every day, and it is impossible for the municipal party secretary to take charge of everything. This requires secretaries to have a good screening function and make correct judgments for most of the work. Third, they are high-configuration processors. For various emergencies, secretaries should position themselves as executors rather than decision-makers. Although they have their own ideas, they must implement them meticulously according to the decisions of the municipal party secretary.
Fang Zhicheng is still a little immature in terms of the above three functions, but he is working hard.
Fang Zhicheng sighed and said, "I think you should take it easy, boss."
Song Wendi was slightly stunned, then nodded and said with a wry smile: "You are right to remind me, I was indeed too impatient."
Song Wendi has been in Yinzhou for more than half a year, and has achieved successive victories, which is unstoppable. However, this has also brought about great negative effects. A group of cadres headed by Xia Xiang have begun to respond negatively to the various instructions issued by Song Wendi.
This is the truth that more haste less speed.
Fang Zhicheng carefully helped Song Wendi tidy up his desk and whispered, "Boss, please let me handle the child trafficking gang, how about that?"
Song Wendi thought to himself that Fang Zhicheng was quick to react and that using secret channels to handle this matter would be much more efficient than discussing it at the Standing Committee meeting. Song Wendi nodded and said softly, "Then you can handle it and report the situation to me in a timely manner."
In the afternoon, Fang Zhicheng came to the city's Public Security Bureau and was received in the office by Deputy Director Ding Feng, who was in charge of public security.
Fang Zhicheng spoke frankly: "Today's incident was mainly caused by Secretary Song's order to ask the Public Security Bureau to take measures to crack down on the child trafficking and begging gangs."
Ding Feng asked about the whole story and nodded quickly, saying, "Recently, the Public Security Bureau has received many reports of missing children. We have already started investigating, but the other party is very cunning. They belong to a large criminal gang roaming around the country. We have not yet figured out how to solve the problem."
Fang Zhicheng stretched out a finger and whispered, "One week, this is the boss's request."
Ding Feng looked embarrassed. He naturally knew that the boss was referring to Song Wendi. He bargained softly, "A week seems a bit too tight. Can we ask Secretary Song for help and try to solve the case in half a month?"
Fang Zhicheng tapped his fingers lightly on the table and said with a wry smile, "The boss attaches great importance to this case and even convened an emergency standing committee meeting. Success or failure depends on this. Director Ding should know that this is actually an opportunity."
After this reminder, Ding Feng showed understanding on his face, and sighed softly: "I will hold a meeting later to discuss the relevant plan, and then report to Secretary Song."
Fang Zhicheng waved his hand and said calmly: "No need to report for now, wait until the gang is destroyed, then we can talk about it. Boss, you are a person who only cares about results."
Fang Zhicheng saw that he had almost finished talking, so he stood up and prepared to leave. Ding Feng suddenly asked, "Secretary Fang should know my son, right?"
Fang Zhicheng frowned and thought for a while, then asked doubtfully, "Nail?"
Ding Feng nodded and apologized softly: "Yes, my son is too young and hot-tempered. If I have offended you in the past, please forgive me, Secretary Fang."
Fang Zhicheng thought to himself that Dingzi and Zhong Yang had compensated him 30,000 yuan in the past, and he had already forgotten about it, so he smiled generously and said, "As the saying goes, there is no acquaintance without fighting. Although Dingzi is impulsive, he is very loyal to his friends."
Ding Feng was relieved when he saw that Fang Zhicheng's attitude and tone were not fake. Although Ding Feng was a powerful deputy director of public security, he was far inferior to the power behind Fang Zhicheng. If Fang Zhicheng was determined to cause trouble for him, he would have no power to fight back.
Just as he walked out of the Public Security Bureau, a black car honked not far away. Fang Zhicheng looked in the direction of the sound and saw a tall, handsome man pushing the door open and walking out.
"Mr. Cheng, long time no see." Zhong Yang took the initiative to greet him with a smile on his face and extended his right hand.
Fang Zhicheng shook hands with him and asked in confusion: "Have you been waiting for me?"
Zhong Yang nodded and smiled, "Of course. My uncle just told me to treat you well when Brother Fang comes out."
Fang Zhicheng thought to himself that Ding Feng was quite a man, and knew that if he invited him to stay for dinner, he might not agree. Fang Zhicheng was not too disgusted with Zhong Yang, and said calmly: "Then I'd better obey your command."
The officialdom is a complex network of interpersonal relationships. Fang Zhicheng is deliberately weaving this big network. The best way to get along with people is to be generous. Since Zhong Yang is interested in getting close to him, there is no need for him to keep him at a distance. Only by having active exchanges can "friendship" be cultivated.
Of course, this "friendship" also has different levels. His current relationship with Zhong Yang can only be considered as a nodding acquaintance, and his relationship with Xu Peng can barely be considered as a second-level friendship of interest, while Zhu Youming, who has the best relationship with Fang Zhicheng, can be considered a close friend. As for a life-and-death friendship or a life-and-death friendship, Fang Zhicheng thinks it is almost impossible. For example, asking Fang Zhicheng to take a bullet for Zhu Youming is definitely impossible.
Although feelings can be deep or shallow, the cultivation of friendships at any level cannot be neglected. As the saying goes, cast a wide net to catch more fish. The more branches your network has, the more resources you will have at your disposal when you need to solve a problem.
The two found a place to eat and started chatting. Zhong Yang discovered that after having an in-depth conversation with Fang Zhicheng, he was shrouded in a unique sense of mystery.
Zhong Yang was determined to get closer to Fang Zhicheng, and sincerely invited him, "Mr. Cheng, are there any activities tonight? How about going out to sing karaoke together?"
Fang Zhicheng half-jokingly said: "I heard that Brother Zhong is very romantic. Many women on the Yinzhou Forum have expressed their love to you."
Zhong Yang waved his hands quickly and said with a wry smile: "That's all nonsense. These days, if you don't give some real money, how many women are willing to throw themselves into your arms?"
Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "I originally thought that Brother Zhong only needed to move his mouth and a lot of beauties would flock to him."
Zhong Yang smiled, leaned close to Fang Zhicheng's ear, and whispered, "If you're willing tonight, I can reserve a few nice princesses for you. You can take them away tonight. How about that?"
Fang Zhicheng waved his hands and declined, "Singing is fine, but as for other services, that's not necessary."
Seeing Fang Zhicheng giving him face, Zhong Yang was in a good mood and quickly took out his phone to book a private room. The two chatted for about half an hour. Zhong Yang felt that the time was almost up, so he took Fang Zhicheng to a large KTV in the city. Before entering the private room, he saw Dingzi with a flattering smile on his face, waving at Zhong Yang non-stop.
After Fang Zhicheng entered, several girls in revealing clothes had already started singing. Dingzi said a few words to a sweet-looking girl, who nodded shyly, sat down next to Fang Zhicheng, and poured him a glass of wine. Fang Zhicheng drank a glass of wine and chatted briefly with the girl.
