From Zhou Daoqian's point of view, even if you, Xue Xiang, didn't pay attention to the cowhide envelope that Wang Shengli took out, Wang Shengli came to you to do the most important thing. For the sake of Zhou Daoqian, you didn't just do it for him, and you had to pay for it. What does that thing do?
If you, Ma Liuer, did it, would Wang Shengli still have to do this?
You, Xue Xiang, did it on purpose!
In addition to resenting Xue Xiang for tossing Wang Shengli's case, Zhou Daoqian was even more annoyed. The extended political consequences of this matter were serious.
As soon as Wang Shengli's case was revealed, the prestige and popularity that Zhou Daoqian had so easily accumulated were naturally blown away by the wind.
Originally, in the eyes of outsiders, Wang Shengli's entry was definitely Commissioner Kong's counterattack. You, Secretary Zhou, can't even protect your own brother-in-law, so who would mess with you?
Political matters are so mysterious. It is often seen in the direction of the wind, momentum, and whether you are red or white. If you are strong, others will follow you. If you are weak, others will abandon you. This is an eternal truth.
This is why many high-ranking cadres, even though they know that their subordinates have made mistakes, still have to defend them with all their strength. What they are defending is not that person, but their own power.
You can handle your own people by yourself, but you must not allow others to use them as a basis for criticism and cut down your political banner.
Kong Laohu accurately seized the gap left by Wang Shengli, not only breaking the alliance between Zhou and Xue in one fell swoop, but also turning the two against each other. It must be said that this was a masterstroke in the overall political situation.
Nowadays, Zhou Daoqian is pursuing and beating Xue Laosan fiercely, hoping to kill him quickly. In addition to venting his resentment, he also has political considerations.
Because, defeating Xue Xiang will also help to raise the prestige banner of Zhou.
Just imagine how arrogant Xue Laosan is. When he first arrived, he earned the nickname of a living bandit. Not only that, but Kong Fangao, a real tiger who roamed the Dejiang River, was repeatedly defeated by this person, and was directly killed by this person. Xue Laosan's reputation in Xiayi can be said to be illustrious, not inferior to that of ordinary prefectural committee members.
If Zhou Daoqian killed a living bandit who could not even do anything to Kong Laohu, then in the eyes of outsiders, the importance of his secretary would be obvious.
This is also the fundamental purpose of Zhou Daoqian's eager visit to the provincial capital. He is not here for a meeting. He is just to capture the flag. Even if Governor Li calls out Xue Xiang's name over and over again, it is just a bait for Secretary Zhou. .
Otherwise, Xue Xiang, a mere department-level cadre, would not be worthy of being targeted again and again by Li Xingyu, the executive deputy governor.
Originally, the province had tacitly recognized the Dejiang Investment Promotion Group as a soy sauce team. If you, Dejiang, didn't interfere, people would still like to avoid the three places of Yinshan, Meishan, and Dejiang from killing each other. Why should they always blame you, Dejiang, for not being active in recruiting investment?
It is precisely because of this kind of cause and effect that Zhou Daoqian's attempt to punish Xue Xiang was both inevitable and deliberate.
However, he said that the small circle was empty and silent, with only the eyes of Xue Xiang and Zhou Daoqian remaining, having a silent exchange, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
Although Wei Meiren in the distance couldn't hear clearly what they were saying, she was very aware of the tense situation. She was really nervous in her heart, fearing that the bad guy didn't know the seriousness and would still act like a arrogant person in Xiaoshan. Unfortunately, this Secretary Zhou has a solid foundation in the province. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to jump from the last deputy director of the Provincial Planning Commission to a member of the Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Dejiang Prefectural Committee. A bad guy would face him. If you go head-to-head, there will definitely be no good results.
The silence before was indeed the calm before the storm. Xue Xiang puffed out a puff of smoke, opened his mouth, and spit out lightning, "Secretary Zhou is avenging a private revenge!"
Suddenly, Zhou Daoqian's foot slipped, his big hand holding on to the carriage lost its grip, and he fell headlong to the ground, as if he had been struck by lightning.
"Secretary Zhou!"
"Secretary Zhou!"
"..."
There was a commotion in the field, and six or seven people all reached out to save him. Director Yan was even more exaggerated. With a pop, a guy fell straight to the ground. Obviously, this guy was vying to make a meat pad for Zhou Daoqian.
Unfortunately, the No. 1 Secretary of the Prefectural Committee, Gu Ximing, who was standing next to Zhou Daoqian, quickly grabbed Zhou Daoqian, making Director Yan's act of sacrifice in vain.
However, right now, it doesn't matter whether he succeeds or not, as long as his desperate efforts and falling into the eyes of the leader are all worth it.
Director Yan's secretary Xiao Jin's eyes shone when he helped him up. He thought to himself that he had learned how to be ruthless today. It's no wonder that Director Yan had less than two taels of ink in his belly, but he was able to get to where he is today. Just relying on this
With ruthless energy and clever energy, a person has a bright future.
After a fuss, Zhou Daoqian impatiently waved away the seven or eight hands holding him, held his eyes, his face was livid, his eyes were red, he stared at Xue Xiang, and said word by word: "Avenging private revenge? Xue Xiang,
You have to be responsible for what you say!"
Xue Xiang reached out and flicked the cigarette butt into the trash can not far away, puffed out the last puff of smoke, and said with a smile: "Of course I am responsible for what I said, and all the comrades present are witnesses. As far as I know, investment promotion
The conference is not over yet. Those two people are interested in tourism resources.
The development boss has not signed any written contract with Yinshan and Meishan. I don’t know where Secretary Zhou came from to determine that this Dejiang investment promotion group has completely destroyed Dejiang’s good investment promotion situation. Don’t you know that?
Once the dust settles, anything is possible."
"Of course, there are indeed some mistakes in this period of my work. Secretary Zhou wants to criticize me, and I accept it humbly. But I have to say that it is too impatient to conclude the coffin just at this point? Except because of Wang Shengli's
I really can’t think of any other reason why Secretary Zhou is so eager to make organizational conclusions to me. If Secretary Zhou insists on having his own way, I reserve the right to appeal to the Provincial Party Committee!”
Snap!
There was such a loud bang that Zhou Daoqian's eyes turned from red to purple, his eardrums roared, and he was a little dazed.
Everyone present has also thoroughly seen Xue Laosan's true face. What is a living bandit? This is a living bandit. His strong fighting power and unyielding arrogance are really shocking and inexplicable.
Xue Laosan is such a person. When faced with power, he has always been a tough guy.
But then again, the matter has reached this point, and there is no room for him to be lax.
No matter how hard he was, Zhou Daoqian's guillotine would have been pressed against the back of his neck. The hole had been dug for him, and only the coffin was left. If Xue Laosan didn't fight back, he would be turned into fertilizer.
Of course, Xue Laosan would not speak unreasonably, but would keenly seize Zhou Daoqian's loopholes, attack them from the side, and reverse the situation.
Indeed, it is a bit unbelievable to see Zhou Daoqian's "public revenge for private revenge" being mentioned by name.
After all, this is an extremely political incident that accuses the person in charge of a first-level organization. Fortunately, at this time, there is no leader at the Dejiang District Committee level. Otherwise, it would be impossible to get around it even if he wanted to. Xue Laosan and
Zhou Daoqian can only fight to the end until one person falls.
However, Xue Laosan accused Zhou Daoqian of seeking personal revenge for the king's victory, and Zhou Daoqian could only knock out his teeth and swallow his blood.
Who said Wang Shengli was his in-law, no matter whether he or Zhou had such motives, as long as it gave outsiders the impression that this was the case, that was enough.
Not to mention, what Xue Laosan said is also reasonable. Now that the investment promotion work has not been settled, it is too early to judge the success or failure. Secretary Zhou can’t wait to jump out and criticize. Isn’t this both motivation and action?
?
It seems that Xue Xiang is in charge, but if he really wants to argue about "public revenge for private revenge" and the lawsuit goes to the provincial party committee level, Xue Xiang will definitely lose.
Because of the prestige of the person in charge of the first-level organization, the higher-level organization naturally wants to protect it. The behavior of making assumptions about Xue Xiang and challenging Zhou Daoqian's authority is not only suppressed, but also suppressed.
Ordinarily, the situation is not good for Xue Xiang, so why does Xue Laosan still dare to do it?
There are two reasons. First, if you don't let go of the outcome, Zhou Daoqian will kill what happened today, and Xue Laosan will encounter an unbearable political Waterloo;
Secondly, this winning hand will cause Xue Laosan a thousand losses to himself, but it also has the effect of killing eight hundred enemies.
Because even if the provincial party committee has maintained Zhou Daoqian's prestige, Zhou's eagerness to organize conclusions for Xue Xiang will inevitably lead to the suspicion of avenging private revenge. This will be a shadow that cannot be washed away in his life. Even if he stays in the position of Secretary Dejiang, he will only
I'm afraid that my official career will stop here.
The most likely possibility is that the provincial party committee will let him sit on the bench for more than 10 years in Dejiang, and then transfer him away after the project to protect his secretary's face is completed.
As for Zhou Daoqian, a young and powerful cadre, there was almost no need to think that he must be a person with great political ambitions. How could such a person tolerate the end of his official career?
Since Zhou Daoqian aspired to an official career, he was naturally unwilling to trade his life with Xue Laosan.
It sounds like Xue Laosan's move was extremely risky, but in reality the outcome was calculated, so it was a near miss.
In addition, even if ordinary cadres find such flaws in their superiors, they will not dare to seize them. Otherwise, even if they freeze the superiors, they will not be able to withstand the subsequent attacks of the superiors.
Only Xue Laosan, a yamen with a profound background, dared to make such a move.
At this thought, Xue Laosan began to feel grateful to Xue Anyuan, an uncle of the famous generation. Without the shadow of his old man, how could he, Mr. Xue, be as free and domineering as he is now?
Sure enough, Zhou Daoqian calmed down, said, "Then I will wait for your good news on behalf of the five million people of Dejiang," and walked away with a straight face.
Secretary Zhou came here for a slap in the face, but as a result, he was slapped in the face and ran away in a panic, which really felt like he was running away and discarding his armor.
In Xue Laosan's opinion, even if this guy failed, he didn't have the personality of Kong Laoshan who failed.
However, it was said that Zhou Daoqian's Santana turned back not long after he left. When he came back, Gu Ximing was the only one there.
Secretary Gu smiled politely and nodded to Xue Xiang, then summoned County Magistrate Xu and others, who were still in a dazed state, to a corner. After some muttering, they left. (To be continued...)
