Dong Xingbang was thoughtful when he heard what Chu Heng said.
Originally, everyone thought it was natural for Lu Ming to no longer serve as the director of the municipal bureau. After all, many people who have been promoted to political and legal leaders no longer hold the position of director of the municipal bureau. This has gradually become a trend in the personnel adjustments in recent years. Therefore, Lu Ming's resignation as director of the municipal bureau this time seems normal to many people, but Dong Xingbang knows that the matter is not that simple. Lu Ming resigned as director, and You Chengdong was parachuted in... What is involved here It is an invisible power struggle in the city, like the light of swords and shadows.
After a moment of silence, Dong Xingbang looked at Chu Heng and said, "Director Chu, what do you mean..."
Chu Heng smiled and said, "Old Dong, You Chengdong is in need of people the most right now. If you support him at this time, does he have to be grateful to you? As the old saying goes, it is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to provide help when you need it. You are here at this time. Supporting You Chengdong is more meaningful than providing help in times of need. You Chengdong will even treat you as a confidant in the future."
Dong Xingbang hesitated and said, "But if this happens, then I will completely offend Secretary Lu."
Chu Heng smiled and said, "Every gain must come with a loss, especially at such a critical moment when you are taking sides. If you choose You Chengdong at this time, you will definitely offend Lu Ming, but it will also show that you are taking sides at this time." Once you do that, You Chengdong will definitely treat you as one of his own."
Dong Xingbang said, "What if Mayor You cannot stand in the municipal bureau?"
Chu Heng smiled disapprovingly, "Old Dong, you seem to be looking down on You Chengdong a little. You Chengdong climbed up from the grassroots to the position of county secretary. It is impossible for such a person without some skills, but These are all secondary. There is a saying that goes well, if the leader says you can do it, you can do it. If the leader says you can’t, you can’t do it no matter how good you are. You must understand that You Chengdong was promoted from the position of Secretary of Sanjiang County to the position of deputy mayor this time. He also serves as the director of the municipal bureau. The bigger background here is that Wu Huiwen and Xu Honggang are secretly fighting each other, and more broadly, it is a projection of the power game between some people in Huangyuan in Jiangzhou."
Dong Xingbang is not stupid, Chu Heng said, and he immediately understood that the new director You Chengdong was not as weak as it seemed on the surface. He only saw the situation in the municipal bureau, but did not move to a higher level. Thinking from a certain perspective, Chu Heng was right. You Chengdong's appointment should be viewed in the context of the city's current environment, and the power game behind it should be clearly understood.
Soon, Dong Xingbang said, "Director Chu, I understand what you mean. I will slowly and proactively move closer to Mayor You later."
A smile appeared on Chu Heng's face. Talking to smart people saves trouble.
Chu Heng continued, "You are right to say that you should get closer slowly. You can't do it too hastily, otherwise it will make You Chengdong suspicious."
Chu Heng said, seeing that Dong Xingbang still seemed a little worried, he couldn't help but said, "Old Dong, don't worry too much about offending Lu Ming. As long as you lean towards You Chengdong, once Lu Ming suppresses you, You Chengdong will definitely be saved." You, and I will try my best to protect you, because by then, even if You Chengdong pretends to buy horse bones for a thousand gold, he will have to protect you, otherwise what will others think of him? Even a person who takes the initiative to seek refuge Even if we can’t keep it, who will believe that he, You Chengdong, can gain a foothold in the city bureau?”
Chu Heng's words were quite enlightening to Dong Xingbang. Dong Xingbang instantly understood that whether You Chengdong could keep him was of great significance to You Chengdong's success in the future in the city bureau and whether he could gain a firm foothold. Thinking of this, Dong Xingbang immediately became more confident. He was really blinded before and only looked at the problem at the level of the municipal bureau instead of thinking from a higher level.
Chu Heng said again, "Old Director, if you stand with You Chengdong, it may be a difficult period at the beginning, but as long as you get through it, the future will be bright, and You Chengdong will treat you as one of his own." , and if he regains a foothold in the city bureau, you will become the number one general under You Chengdong."
Dong Xingbang heard this and said quickly, "Director Chu, I will always be yours."
Chu Heng smiled and patted Dong Xingbang's shoulder, "Old Dong, I understand, there is no need to talk about this between the two of us."
Chu Heng said with a twinkling light in his eyes, "Old Dong, you first follow You Chengdong and work hard, and help You Chengdong fight with Lu Ming. In this process, You Chengdong will definitely become more and more interested in you. I believe that once you become You Chengdong's confidant, you may be able to get some handle on You Chengdong in the future. If I have the opportunity to be transferred back to Jiangzhou in the future, I can take You Chengdong away and let you be the boss. The director of this city bureau."
Chu Heng's words gave Dong Xingbang a clearer promise. Even though Dong Xingbang knew that Chu Heng's promise was now like a blank check, he was still excited. He knew very well whether he could become the director in the future. , you really have to rely on Chu Heng. Now that Chu Heng has expressed his stance, it at least gives him a little hope.
Although excited, Dong Xingbang quickly calmed down, looked at Chu Heng, and asked, "Director Chu, are you going back to Jiangzhou tonight..."
Chu Heng's eyes flickered, "I'm thinking about whether to meet Wei Xiaobei."
Dong Xingbang was stunned, "Director Chu, do you want to see Wei Xiaobei?"
Chu Heng nodded and said, "That's right."
Dong Xingbang looked surprised, because many of Chu Heng's investigations into Wei Xiaobei did not go through Dong Xingbang, so Dong Xingbang's understanding of Wei Xiaobei was relatively limited, but Dong Xingbang also knew about Wei Xiaobei and Xu Honggang They were very close, and now Chu Heng wanted to see Wei Xiaobei, which really surprised Dong Xingbang. He didn't know what Chu Heng's purpose was.
Chu Heng did not explain further, but asked, "Old Dong, do you think now is the time to bring up Xue Yuan's matter?"
Dong Xingbang frowned slightly, "Director Chu, I think the time is not yet ripe. Regarding Xue Yuan, it would be better to let Director Lu lift the lid. We can just help fan the flames behind the scenes."
Chu Heng smacked his mouth when he heard this. Dong Xingbang's words were similar to his previous thoughts. At this moment, Chu Heng suddenly realized that he was a little impatient. Especially after learning about Wei Xiaobei, Chu Heng found that he could not wait to go. It is not wise to bring down Xu Honggang, because it will make him confused and even make some irrational judgments.
After pondering for a while, Chu Heng said, "Let's take things slowly with Xue Yuan and wait for Lu Qian to lift the lid."
Dong Xingbang nodded and said, "I think this is the best choice."
Chu Heng nodded, "Okay, that's it. Old Dong, I have nothing else to do. I called you here mainly because I want to have a chat with you. You should go back and rest early. There will be a heavier burden waiting for you in the future. You You need to recharge your batteries.”
Dong Xingbang smiled flatteringly and said, "It all depends on Director Chu's cultivation."
The two exchanged pleasantries, and Chu Heng personally sent Dong Xingbang to the door. After watching Dong Xingbang leave, Chu Heng thought for a long time, and finally took a car to a hotel in the city.
Chu Heng asked for a business box and then called Wei Xiaobei.
There is Chu Heng's number in the address book of Wei Xiaobei's mobile phone, but the two of them haven't had much interaction in the past. Except for the time when Zhongtian Group was preparing to invest in Jiangzhou, Wei Xiaobei had some issues with Chu Heng due to negotiation work. Heng had been in contact with him, but the two of them didn't have much contact the rest of the time.
When Chu Heng called, Wei Xiaobei, who was drinking with some Jiangzhou business friends, was stunned for a moment. He answered the phone in confusion and asked uncertainly, "Mayor Chu?"
While talking, Wei Xiaobei walked out of the box.
"I didn't expect Mr. Wei to still remember me, but you can't call me Mayor Chu now. I'm no longer the executive deputy mayor of Jiangzhou. Mr. Wei should call me Director Chu." Chu Heng said with a smile.
"Haha, I still think it's kinder to call me Mayor Chu." Wei Xiaobei said with a smile, "Mayor Chu, you are a rare visitor, why did you think of calling me, a little person like me?"
Chu Heng said, "Mr. Wei, don't be so humble. You are not a nobody. I think you are now a man of the hour in Jiangzhou."
Wei Xiaobei smiled and said, "Mayor Chu, if you say that, you're going to kill me. I'm just a nobody."
Wei Xiaobei said and asked directly, "Mayor Chu, do you have anything to do with me?"
Chu Heng said, "Mr. Wei, I happen to be back in Jiangzhou for something tonight. I wonder if it would be convenient for Mr. Wei to come out and sit down together and chat?"
Chu Heng wanted to chat with him? When Wei Xiaobei heard Chu Heng's words, his face became suspicious. The sun was out in the west. Chu Heng had never interacted with him in the past, but suddenly he said he wanted to chat with him. This really fulfilled his words. , when things go wrong, there must be monsters.
Wei Xiaobei's thoughts flashed through his head, and he immediately said, "Mayor Chu, where are you now? I'll go find you."
After hearing this, Chu Heng said, "I'm at the hotel. Let's do this. I'll send you the address."
Wei Xiaobei said, "Okay, Mayor Chu, please send me the address, and I'll be there right away."
After the two talked on the phone, Wei Xiaobei curled his lips. He agreed so readily. He undoubtedly wanted to see what Chu Heng was up to. Chu Heng had already been transferred to Huangyuan, and now he came to Jiangzhou and said he wanted to find him. If he meets and chats, only a fool will believe that Chu Heng is just chatting with him.
Wei Xiaobei put away his cell phone, went into the box to confess to a few friends, and then took a car to the hotel where Chu Heng was staying.
In the hotel room, Chu Heng was waiting for Wei Xiaobei to come over while playing with his mobile phone. Before coming to Jiangzhou in the evening, he copied a video from the USB flash drive to his mobile phone. Chu Heng was going to take it out for Wei Xiaobei to enjoy later. one time.
Chu Heng decided to do this now after careful consideration. He wanted to test Wei Xiaobei.
While waiting, Chu Heng was weighing the pros and cons again. He is a very careful person, and he has to weigh and judge the pros and cons at every step. But on the other hand, Chu Heng is actually a very gambling person. As long as he has a little bit Maybe, he is willing to take a risk and take a gamble. Of course, the premise of gambling is that the risk is controllable, at least under the premise that he thinks the risk is controllable. But sometimes, how can a person really count? No legacy strategy?
