In the county government compound, Li Yixiang received calls from Municipal Party Committee Secretary He Zhenhua and Mayor Zhao Mengzhou. The contents of the calls were roughly the same, and they all spoke for the Yang Group.
Mayor Zhao Mengzhou also personally called Chen Shaoping.
He Zhenhua, secretary of the municipal party committee, is about to retire, and Zhao Mengzhou is working hard to transform himself from mayor to secretary. Among them, the two brothers of the Yang Group, Mr. Yang, have direct connections with the top levels of the provincial government. This is an important political resource for whether Zhao Mengzhou can take over as secretary of the municipal party committee.
Therefore, Zhao Mengzhou was particularly active in the Yang Group's involvement in the Haicheng Lake development project.
"Shaoping, behind the Yang Group are the top officials of the provincial government. You, a local cadre alone, cannot stop them!" Zhao Mengzhou said seriously on the phone, "You have offended the Yang Group, which will have a negative impact on your future career development. It’s also detrimental!”
"Mayor Zhao, the Yang Group has many problems. I can't and don't dare to directly approve funds without qualifications! There is also Wei Bin from the Yang Group who openly molested women in our office. , I can’t ignore the blatant violation of the law! Mayor Zhao, I don’t have to go against the Yang Group, but there are some things that they have gone too far!”
Chen Shaoping also expressed his difficulties.
"Some things can be handled flexibly! Shaoping, you need to be more flexible in your thinking!" Zhao Mengzhou was obviously unhappy, with a reprimand in his voice.
After talking on the phone with Zhao Mengzhou, Chen Shaoping felt extremely depressed.
"As long as I am the director of the Haicheng Lake Development Office, I will never allow the Yang Group to mess around unless they get rid of me as the office director!"
Chen Shaoping secretly made up his mind.
The county magistrate Ma Bin, who had been completely sidelined, was ready to accept the status quo and settle for being the county magistrate. However, with the strong intervention of Yang Group leading to subtle changes in the Jiangli Municipal Council, Mayor Zhao Mengzhou began to lean in again. Supported County Magistrate Ma Bin in Cangyang County.
This is reflected in the fact that Mayor Zhao Mengzhou and Secretary-General of the Municipal Government Feng Xiangyong successively called the county magistrate Ma Bin and gave instructions: "Let him pay close attention to the progress of the Haicheng Lake development project!" Both words and deeds hinted at the development of Haicheng Lake. It means that the burden of the project is placed on his shoulders.
Ma Bin sensitively noticed that his opportunity had arisen, so he took the initiative to contact Qin Jianghai, who had returned and became the general person in charge of the Haicheng Lake Development Project.
"Our opportunity may have appeared!" Ma Bin said excitedly after talking to Qin Jianghai on the phone.
Liu Zhenhua listened quietly to Ma Bin's phone call, and couldn't help but feel excited.
"County Magistrate Ma, this Chen Shaoping is so arrogant that even Mayor Zhao doesn't take him seriously!" Liu Zhenhua said excitedly.
"It's not just Mayor Zhao, the Yang Group is the real power. I've heard before that the Yang Group can control the situation in the provincial capital! Now it seems that the rumors are true!"
Ma Bin walked around the office excitedly: "It would be great if I could meet directly with people from the Yang Group and chat for a few words!"
When Liu Zhenhua heard this, he knew that his opportunity to perform had come, and immediately said: "County Magistrate Ma, leave this matter to me!"
Ma Bin stared at Liu Zhenhua for nearly ten seconds before saying slowly: "You have to do things smartly, meet in person, and keep it secret!"
"Don't worry, County Magistrate Ma!" Liu Zhenhua said confidently.
In addition to calls from the municipal party committee secretary and mayor, Li Yixiang also received calls from acquaintances in the province.
The call came from the Provincial Department of Housing and Urban-Rural Development. According to insiders, Yang Group has obtained the qualification to intervene in the second phase of the Haicheng Lake development project.
On the side of the Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government, the development of Haicheng Lake is a three-step strategy.
The first phase of the project is to build a leisure resort, the second phase is to build a love town and lakeside villas, and the third phase is to build a sightseeing avenue around the lake and develop and promote Haicheng Lake tourist attractions.
Yang Group's involvement in the Haicheng Lake development project has become an irresistible trend.
Li Yixiang had to ask the County Public Security Bureau to release him, but he still forcibly withheld the approval funds from the Yang Group Project Department.
"The Yang Group is a barrel of explosives. It will explode wherever it goes!" Li Yixiang said silently in his heart. Soon, he made a decision: he wanted to go back to the provincial capital! He was making one last effort for the Haicheng Lake development project. If he really couldn't stop the Yang Group, there was nothing he could do.
Li Yixiang made up his mind and called Chen Shaoping directly: "Prepare the detailed information on the Haicheng Lake development project and follow me to the provincial capital!"
Chen Shaoping knew as soon as he heard that Li Yixiang was making a last-ditch effort to prevent the Yang Group from harming the Haicheng Lake development project.
"Okay, Secretary Li, when will we set off?" Chen Shaoping replied in a heavy voice. He thought to himself: "If Li Yixiang cannot withstand the intervention of the Yang Group, then the development of Haicheng Lake will be like the moon in the mirror!"
"Be prepared! We will leave at any time!" Li Yixiang said.
Chen Shaoping immediately compiled all the detailed data on the development of Haicheng Lake in the office and extracted the particularly important content separately. If there is anything you don’t understand, please contact Zhang Yanqiu and the financial staff immediately to understand and verify it.
Chen Shaoping was fully prepared to go to the provincial capital and report the situation to the leaders.
Luo Shihan once told Chen Shaoping that Li Yixiang's uncle was from the provincial party committee, but Luo Shihan did not make it clear which one from the provincial party committee.
However, the "provincial committee" is already a ceiling for people of Chen Shaoping's level.
Looking across the country, 99% of grassroots cadres will never come into contact with leaders at the provincial party committee level if they work hard throughout their lives.
When Chen Shaoping thought of this, his heart was filled with anxiety.
On the one hand, he is eager to get in touch with the provincial party committee leaders and get personal instructions from the provincial party committee leaders.
But on the one hand, I was afraid of meeting the provincial party committee leader. He was a provincial and ministerial leader, and his knowledge, accomplishments, and vision were not comparable to those of ordinary people. Will a small local cadre like Chen Shaoping be laughed out of his mouth when he reports to others?
Ever since he received the call from Li Yixiang, Chen Shaoping has been feeling restless and restless.
"Be calm when facing big things! Be calm when facing big things!" Chen Shaoping warned himself over and over again, but he could never calm down. His hands would shake when he smoked, and his whole person was in a state of excitement.
In the end, Chen Shaoping still fell short in his efforts to cultivate his body and calm his energy!
After staying up until six o'clock in the evening, Chen Shaoping finally received a call from Li Yixiang to leave for the provincial capital.
