Chapter 142 are all masters of taking advantage of the situation
Looking at the morning newspaper, Ye Kai was surprised to find that Feng Yuntong had actually recuperated due to illness.
Comrade Gu Jianrong from the Secretariat is in charge of the work of Secretary of the Beijing Municipal Party Committee. He is holding a meeting to communicate with all walks of life in the capital, do some comfort work, and get familiar with the contents of this area.
However, everyone knows that Secretary Gu will definitely not be able to take over the work of Secretary of the Beijing Municipal Party Committee for a long time. This seat will have to be vacated sooner or later. The key is to see whether Feng Yuntong can come back. If he cannot come back, I am afraid there will be many more children.
of variables.
No matter which member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China is a member, it is estimated that he will be interested in this position. Taking this position is equivalent to becoming a strong candidate for the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. There are many opportunities.
Of course, the risk in this position is relatively high because it is too close to the center.
Ye Kai scratched his head and felt that Feng Yuntong's resignation was a bit early, at least earlier than he knew. This would also have some impact on the future situation. It is estimated that there will always be some variables in how the future situation will develop.
, but the general environment will definitely not change much.
For the entire country and society, even if a member of the Central Political Bureau falls, it is just a very small thing, but within a certain range, it will still cause ripples, such as the future development direction of Beijing.
How it will change your mind is difficult to say.
But after listening to the second old man telling him what happened in the political situation, Ye Kai smiled and said, "Everyone is a master at taking advantage of the situation!"
Mr. Ye knew clearly that Feng Yuntong would definitely block the discussion on Ye Ziping's appointment to the Mingzhu Municipal Committee, so he took this opportunity to throw out his disciplinary qualifications and directly win over a member of the Central Political Bureau, which was surprising.
It was so shocking. Through this incident, everyone understood that the old Ye family was not easy to bully, so when it came to Ye Ziping's matter, a lot of resistance immediately disappeared.
Comrade Jiang Cheng was also a master at taking advantage of situations. He simply took advantage of this opportunity and before everyone had reacted to the great changes caused by Feng Yuntong's capture, he directly and forcefully proposed that Ye Ziping be elected to the Mingzhu Municipal Committee, establishing his position in the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China in one fell swoop.
important position in political meetings.
From the outside, no one can be sure whether Comrade Jiang Cheng and Mr. Ye had colluded in what happened today, so everyone has some doubts in their hearts. If Comrade Jiang Cheng had received Mr. Ye's full help,
The power configuration of the central government will undergo another change.
In this sensitive period, Zha is not willing to take the lead anymore, and that is the fate of Feng Yuntong who fell in front of him.
A member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee and Secretary of the Beijing Municipal Party Committee has just disappeared. And from Comrade Jiang Cheng's tone, it seems that this matter is not over yet. Everyone can't agree on whether they will continue to pursue it, and there is no accurate statement.
"The capital is destined to be unrest these days." The second old man said, "Although Feng Yuntong's elder died early, he still has many old friends and relatives, and the intercessors all have some status. I'm afraid Comrade Jiang Cheng will find it difficult to handle."
Feng Yuntong's father was a veteran of the party, but he died long before liberation. He was the kind of big shot who was regarded as a poster boy, so he naturally had a lot of supporters. Now that his descendants are killed, of course many old comrades will come out to speak and say
It is human nature to demand mercy outside the law due to love.
"This is how society is governed by man, and human relations are greater than heaven." Ye Kai commented on this, "I estimate that it will be possible to truly establish the concept of legal system after these old comrades have almost returned home.
It still takes a long time to get used to it.”
"But that's fine. Your father's matter has been completely settled, and there's nothing sloppy about it." The second old man said, with a look of great relief on his face.
Ye Kai nodded in agreement, this time things did go smoothly.
Because of Comrade Jiang Cheng's promotion, Ye Ziping's decision to become the Mingzhu Municipal Party Committee was confirmed in one fell swoop, saving the old Ye family a lot of trouble.
However, Comrade Jiang Cheng will not suffer at all. In the future, when the Central Political Bureau expands, he will definitely add more people. When the time comes, Mr. Ye will have to return this favor to him.
Besides, because Feng Yuntong, who was originally scheduled to be a member of the Standing Committee, fell, the position of one of the nine giants in the future will be vacant. This position will also be the focus of many forces. As the number one leader, Comrade Jiang Cheng has gained in this.
The benefits are bound to be very large.
"It seems that my grandfather will have to continue working for one more term." Ye Kai said suddenly.
"Oh?" The second old man was stunned for a moment. After thinking about it carefully, he nodded and said, "Oh."
What Ye Kai said is indeed very reasonable. Even if Comrade Jiang Cheng is capable, he will not be able to add two of his own people to the Standing Committee of the Central Committee because his foundation is too shallow and he does not have that many reliable people on hand.
He is a strong candidate, so once Mr. Ye, who is close to him, retires, at most only two votes among the nine central committee members belong to him. Such a No. 1 leader is very weak and has no say.
Especially in the Central Standing Committee meetings, there is no veto power, so he can only try his best to avoid this situation.
The other big bosses now, including Prime Minister Yun and Chairman Xu Yongnian of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, are in separate factions. Comrade Gu Jianrong is a reserve successor and will definitely not be of the same mind as Comrade Jiang Cheng. The few additional members of the Standing Committee who have joined in will definitely be the same.
It is impossible for all parties to capture the focus of contention for themselves.
Therefore, in view of the needs of the domestic situation, it is reasonable and reasonable to ask Mr. Ye to stay for another term.
For Comrade Jiang Cheng, this is a better delaying strategy.
Five years later, Comrade Jiang Cheng's position has long been stable and he can basically control the military power. The old leaders who have just retired are almost expired. When he wants to speak again, his confidence will be completely different.
By that time, Comrade Jiang Cheng will have a much greater say in the Central Standing Committee meetings and will have sufficient influence on personnel appointments and removals.
That's why Ye Kai made the judgment that the old man may have to work for another term. This situation was indeed not foreseen earlier.
"Your grandpa is already seventy-five, do you really want to work in prostitution until he is eighty?" The second old man touched his chin, feeling a little hesitant.
In fact, at the current position of the Ye family, it is naturally beneficial to the family for the old man to work for another term, but it may not be a good thing for Mr. Ye's health. In that position, hard work is a must.
Yes, you can't just sit down and have a meal, Mr. Ye is not that kind of person.
"This matter mainly depends on what my grandfather thinks." Ye Kai said, "But I estimate that Comrade Fang He and Comrade Chu Feng will also favor my grandfather staying in office for one term."
If the Feng Yuntong incident had not occurred and the political situation in China had not changed much, then the issue of whether Mr. Ye would remain in office would not have had a great impact on the entire political situation. But now that something like this happens, it will definitely cause people's hearts to wander.
Comrade Jiang Cheng's foundation is not yet solid enough, so the central government must have a young and virtuous core figure in charge to ensure a stable transfer of power.
Even if Mr. Ye just stays in that position and doesn't do anything at ordinary times, it is a kind of psychological support for Comrade Jiang Cheng. The existence of Mr. Ye is equivalent to a key figure in the replacement of old and new.
"To build on the past and build upon the future, I guess we will continue to work this term." After pondering over the situation, Ye Kai basically made a judgment.
"Looking at it this way, it was quite far-sighted when you advocated for your father to be promoted to the position of secretary of the Mingzhu Municipal Party Committee." The second old man said, rubbing his chin.
If this were not the case, even if Ye Ziping entered the Central Political Bureau, he could only stay here in the capital and would not have a position outside. Then it would be a bit awkward for the father and son to have meetings together. Although it still happens occasionally, but
After all, the number of visits is much less, and there isn’t much direct contact.
"I have always been far-sighted!" Ye Kai said this just because he dared to say it in front of the second old man. Both old man Ye and Ye Ziping were basically more traditional and upright people, and they were far less amiable and friendly than the second old man.
"I said you were fat and you started to breathe." The second old man said with a smile.
The two chatted casually for a while, and Ye Kai remembered something and said, "Speaking of which, there is something I need your help with, Grandpa Second."
"What's going on?" the second old man asked curiously.
"Do we have anyone of our own who is comfortable in intelligence work, who speaks Russian well, and preferably who is familiar with the situation in the Soviet Union? I want to borrow it, or I won't return it."
Ye Kai said thoughtfully.
"If you want someone from me, just say you want someone. You can borrow or not repay whatever you want..." The second old man sneered, "But why do you want such a person? There are some candidates, but we can't give them to you casually. These are ours.
It hurts to lose one of the talents we have carefully cultivated."
Ye Kai did not hide anything, "Recently, the financial pressure is still relatively high. I can't spend all my money on the aircraft carrier, so I have to find some other ways to make money quickly, so I have to borrow a few people from you.
Use the target to look around the Soviet Union."
"Aren't you selling daily necessities? You can make money quickly." The second old man also knew that Ye Kai asked Zhong Liyu to sell daily necessities to the Soviet Union.
"After I made a few profits, more and more people followed the trend, profits dropped significantly, and shipments became more difficult, so I planned to change the direction of development." Ye Kai said.
"Oh, tell me, if Xiang Zi is good, I can lend him to you." The second old man was very interested in Ye Kai's project.
"This matter is actually not suitable for official operation. Even if I want to intervene, I will find an agent to handle it." Ye Kai said cautiously.
"What kind of business is this? Isn't it drug trafficking?" The second old man looked a little surprised.
"It's not drug trafficking, I plan to traffic arms." Ye Kai finally said his plan.
