Chapter 245 Transfer
Chen Tiecai listened with a wry smile and slowly nodded: "Your analysis is..."
Vice Governor Zhou's words were, in effect, a clear indication that he was telling him to immediately give up on Zhou Xiangzhang.
This indicates that Vice Governor Zhou also felt that things had come to this point.
If we don't make a scene, we probably won't be able to handle it.
Chen Tiecai, having spent many years in officialdom, understood one principle very well:
In officialdom, you're not afraid of being outspoken.
Even if you openly bang on the table and curse, it's fine.
I'm afraid of people like Zhou Xiangzhang who operate in a sneaky manner.
"Tie Cai, after all these years, your ability to judge people is still very lacking."
Zhou Xiangzhang's actions constitute a political incident, and if handled poorly, could lead to the downfall of many.
"If Kyoto backs down then, and is enraged, how can anyone escape unscathed?"
Vice Governor Zhou spoke slowly and gently, but every word was like a sharp awl, piercing deep into Chen Tiecai's heart.
It terrified him and made him tremble.
"You are right."
From now on, I will definitely strengthen my control over the people below me.
I never imagined that someone I trusted so much would actually…”
While Chen Tiecai was frightened, he was also somewhat relieved. Before he arrived, he was worried that his superiors would punish him, but now it seemed that they were only criticizing him and had no intention of taking any action against him.
As it turned out, he was too happy too soon.
What Vice Governor Zhou said next startled Chen Tiecai so much that his mouth dropped open.
"Tie Cai, ah."
It's best not to get involved in this mess in Meihua City anymore.
After all these years, I haven't achieved anything significant.
Let's get out as soon as possible.
I'll see if there are any suitable positions in the various departments and bureaus of the province, and then I'll work my way up to them.
That was a place of right and wrong.
It's best to get away from it sooner rather than later.
Transferred.
This is a very dangerous sign.
Chen Tiecai's mind was buzzing...
He recalled a set of books that Vice Governor Zhou had given him before, called "Zizhi Tongjian". In the section on the Sui Dynasty, there was a story about this.
It is said that there was a minister named Li Gang.
This person disagreed with Yang Su and Su Wei and argued with them.
Yang Su was a man of many ideas. He recommended Li Gang to Emperor Wen, and appointed him as Liu Fang's military advisor.
Liu Fang quickly understood Yang Su's deeper meaning and repeatedly wronged, humiliated, and framed Li Gang.
In the end, Liu Fang's army retreated, leaving Li Gang behind and preventing him from being mobilized for a long time.
Next, Yang Su summoned Su Wei and arranged for Li Gang to handle affairs in a more remote place. After the matter was completed, Li Gang was not recalled, and he was deliberately neglected.
Finally, Li Gang couldn't stand it anymore and returned on his own initiative, but he was impeached for dereliction of duty and was eventually punished.
The past stretches back over a thousand years.
The people are still the same people, and the things are still the same things.
Transferring him is the first step.
What follows is the attack and framing.
Transferring someone is the most efficient and ruthless step.
Leaders often use the guise of caring for you to offer you a different position, and if you refuse, you're seen as ungrateful.
Once a person leaves the core power circle, they will lose a lot of valuable resources and channels for dialogue with superiors, making them easy targets for manipulation.
Chen Tiecai knew very well that he could not leave his current position under any circumstances.
While he was in the position of mayor, he could come to see Vice Governor Zhou late at night to report. But once he leaves this position, it will be difficult to even see him again, and his future will be in jeopardy.
Throughout history, to gain a foothold in the struggle for power, one must get closer and closer to the core of power...
"Boss, I can still do it, and I want to do it again."
Meihua City has launched several projects, which are about to bear fruit.
It's such a pity that they left like this.
I'm also sorry for all the hard work and support you gave me in the past.
He spoke softly, stealing a glance at Vice Governor Zhou's expression. Seeing that the other man did not seem displeased, he continued, "You see."
If I withdraw at this point, what will happen to the aftermath of the Zhou Xiangzhang incident?
The cause of this is me; I'm the one who promoted him.
I'll have to handle the aftermath of this.
If I just walk away and leave, leaving my boss to clean up my mess, then I'd be incredibly inconsiderate.
I know you care about me and feel sorry for me.
With your kindness towards me, I can no longer only think of myself.
I want to at least finish this term.
I am familiar with the situation in Meihua City and know a lot about Zhou Xiangzhang.
"It's perfectly appropriate for me to handle the aftermath."
Vice Governor Zhou remained silent for a moment, not thinking about the aftermath, and gave Chen Tiecai a meaningful look.
Seeing that Chen Tiecai was quick-witted and had actually persuaded him in a short time, Vice Governor Zhou changed his mind and decided not to take action against him so soon, but to give him another chance.
"We must minimize the impact of the Zhou Xiangzhang incident."
"yes!"
"Tomorrow, I'll have someone give you two names. They're two young comrades from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection's detention center. Go find them..."
Chen Tiecai nodded heavily: "Okay."
After leaving Vice Governor Zhou's house, Chen Tiecai went to a nearby hotel to take a nap.
Early the next morning.
He received the list from Vice Governor Zhou and rushed to the entrance of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection's detention center, where he met with a young comrade surnamed Huang from the list.
The name of this Comrade Huang is checked, which means that this person is capable of taking charge, so you should look for him.
"Comrade Huang, this is Chen Tiecai. This is a call from Vice Governor Zhou..."
This man surnamed Huang had already received prior notice and knew that someone would be asking him for a favor.
The two plotted in the car for nearly three hours.
……
Inside the provincial government compound.
Provincial leaders are holding a coordination meeting to discuss the advancement of several key projects across the province.
At the meeting, Vice Governor Qin gave a brief report on several projects under his jurisdiction.
When discussing the development of key agricultural projects across the province.
Vice Governor Qin briefly praised and affirmed the project proposal submitted by Yuanshan County this year regarding the establishment of a fruit industry company and the development of a high-standard navel orange orchard.
Vice Governor Zhou seemed somewhat worried after hearing about the project that Dawei and his team were working on.
Agriculture has always been a weakness for us in Guangdong Province.
Our province's budget allocation to agriculture is no lower than that of other major agricultural provinces.
But for some reason, our province's agricultural output value always ranks at the bottom of the country.
I remember an expert from the provincial agricultural department once said that Guangdong Province is not suitable for developing agriculture.
Because the geographical environment of the entire Guangdong province is not suitable for agriculture.
No matter how much fertilizer you sprinkle on a barren piece of land, it can never compare to the vastness and fertility of the land itself.
Instead, we should allocate the budget to develop our strengths—namely, our processing and manufacturing industries.
We've heard of similar plans from Yuanshan County before.
Basically, it's a losing proposition. It sounds great, but it'll just fizzle out after a few years.
I think it's time to establish an accountability mechanism.
If hundreds of millions of dollars are invested and nothing is made, someone has to take responsibility.
Serving as an official is a continuous process, and so are the responsibilities that come with each new term.
The decisions made by local officials in a given term will have consequences that they must bear.
The funds can no longer be wasted like this.
If this project in Yuanshan County fails to meet expectations, then I believe the top officials of the Yuanshan County government bear undeniable responsibility and should be held accountable later.
As he spoke, Vice Governor Zhou looked at the crowd.
This is an attempt to gain the approval of allies.
Vice Governor Qin found himself in a somewhat passive position. The Department of Agriculture's financial support for Yuanshan County was a collective decision, and there were no problems with the procedures.
But what Vice Governor Zhou said made it seem like he was slapping Vice Governor Qin in the face, since it was Vice Governor Qin who was in charge of the agricultural sector.
