Chapter 546 Operation Qinglang
Lead-gray clouds pressed down from the horizon, as if someone had suddenly pulled a whole curtain up into the sky.
Streaks of colorful light weaved through the clouds.
Canine Tooth is in a bad mood.
The situation seemed to have a clear winner, but an unexpected turn of events occurred.
The divine authority bound to Anning County is as stable as a mountain and cannot be stolen. Even the divine authority in Jinshi City was partially taken away by Lin Xiaohe.
With a fierce fang, a ray of seven-colored light shot into Zhang Jianguo's forehead.
Zhang Jianguo's mind went blank for a moment.
He originally intended to follow the proper procedures. If he did that, no one could find fault with him.
But then he suddenly remembered his youth.
He was born in a very ordinary small mountain village. The village was very poor and people often didn't have enough to eat.
Especially before the founding of the People's Republic of China, those days were more bitter than eating bitter herbs, the suffering was endless.
Later, he was admitted to university and became a golden phoenix in the mountain village.
After graduation, he was assigned to a government department.
He thought his life would improve steadily, but reality proved him wrong.
Without connections or business acumen, his promotion speed is slower than a snail's pace.
After wasting nearly 10 years, he finally compromised, which is why he was able to climb to where he is today.
Zhang Jianguo and Li Yuanchao exchanged a glance and suddenly had a strange feeling that Li Yuanchao was like themselves now, while Lao Tian was like themselves when they were sitting on the sidelines.
Looking back over the past few decades, have you ever had any regrets?
The scales in my heart were completely tipped off under the influence of the colorful light.
"Regret?! I really regret it so much, I regret not realizing it sooner." Zhang Jianguo muttered to himself.
Li Yuanchao: "Hmm?"
Zhang Jianguo waved his hand and said, "The stability and unity of the team are very important. We cannot let some unfounded accusations discourage our comrades."
Li Yuanchao nodded and said nothing more.
Unfortunately, as it turned out, Lao Tian really had the courage to cause a major incident, and the province attached great importance to Changhong Factory and Lin Xiaohe.
The visiting and exchange team and the routine inspection team had just been formed and had not yet set off when Li Yuanchao received a call from his superiors.
“Secretary Li, someone reported to us that the Japan Color TV Association is using non-compliant methods to affect the production of Changhong Factory. Changhong Factory is a benchmark for enterprise reform in Anning County, and in the future, it may also be a benchmark for the entire Liaoyang Province. We should cherish such a factory that has the courage and market competitiveness.”
The words weren't explicitly stated, but to this extent, it was already a warning.
"Okay, don't worry."
The other party was shrewd and could see through Li Yuanchao's perfunctory attitude. He said cheerfully, "Secretary Li is dedicated to the country and the people, so we naturally trust him. By the way, the province is preparing to organize a clean-up campaign. Our enterprise reform task is very arduous, and we public servants must keep up with it." Li Yuanchao's eyes widened, and he instantly stiffened.
The other party didn't say anything more and hung up the phone.
"This is a huge problem." Li Yuanchao let out a long sigh.
He and Zhang Jianguo exchanged a glance and made a tacit decision.
Three days later, the municipal discipline inspection commission's investigation team entered Anning County.
The afternoon that Deputy County Head Chen was summoned for questioning was sunny and bright.
He emerged from the temporary office of the Discipline Inspection Commission, his face pale and his forehead beaded with sweat.
At the end of the corridor, County Chief Tian stood there.
Deputy County Head Chen walked over, his steps somewhat slow. He stopped in front of County Head Tian, his voice hoarse as he spoke: "Are you satisfied?"
County Chief Tian looked at him with a complicated expression.
"Old Chen, I've told you before, there are some things you can't do."
Deputy County Head Chen stared at him, then suddenly laughed, his laughter dry: "You think you've won? The tallest tree in the forest catches the most wind. You'd better watch yourself."
County Chief Tian didn't speak, but looked at Chen Haidong for a long time before slowly saying a sentence.
"Old Chen, maybe I can't. But at least today, I can watch you walk out of here, sweaty."
He turned and left.
Chen Haidong stood there, the sunlight shining on his face so bright that he couldn't open his eyes.
A week later, the Standing Committee of the Jinzhou Municipal Party Committee held a meeting.
Zhang Jianguo chaired the meeting.
The agenda had only one item: the appointment and removal of Chen Haidong, the deputy county head of Anning County.
After a heated discussion, the resolution was passed unanimously.
After the meeting adjourned, Li Yuanchao and Zhang Jianguo were the last to leave the conference room.
"Secretary Zhang, there's something I still want to say." Li Yuanchao leaned closer to Zhang Jianguo and lowered his voice: "Is this the end?"
Zhang Jianguo met his gaze, and after a long while, slowly nodded.
Anning County.
County Head Tian stood by the window, watching smoke rise again from the chimneys of the Changhong factory. His secretary knocked and entered, handing him a document.
"Tian County, the city's appointment and dismissal notice has arrived. Deputy County Head Chen has been demoted to Chief Clerk and transferred to a less important position in the city."
