Volume Three High Officials _ Chapter 1365 Blackmail
Back in the office, Hu Fei picked up the water glass and took a sip. The steaming strong tea, with its rich aroma, brought a burst of heat to the internal organs, making Hu Fei exhale a long and comfortable breath. It was a drink in this cold weather.
A cup of hot tea feels really good.
"What's the matter? If you have anything to say, just say it."
Seeing Qin Xiaoyong's hesitant look, Hu Fei was stunned and frowned slightly, "You have been following me for more than half a year, you should know my character."
"Boss, it's like this. My wife's brother-in-law is the deputy to the People's Congress of our city."
When Qin Xiaoyong saw Hu Fei asking about it, he became angry and told the story through gritted teeth. It turned out that someone had found his brother-in-law and wanted to buy his electoral votes.
"Boss, the situation is very serious. Do you think we should do something?"
After the report, Qin Xiaoyong looked at Hu Fei who looked indifferent and asked cautiously.
"There's nothing to do, let them do the trouble."
Hu Fei sighed, "I believe the masses are discerning. They must know who is really thinking about them and who is using them as a weapon."
Qin Xiaoyong was stunned when he heard this. The longer he stayed with Hu Fei, the less he understood Hu Fei's thoughts. However, this time Peng Shuangquan was very aggressive. Did he really place his hope on the awakening of the National People's Congress deputies?
But how many of the Municipal People's Congress deputies have had contact with the mayor Hu Fei?
One side is a mayoral candidate that I have never interacted with, and the other side is real money. How to choose is naturally a question worth pondering.
No, we can't just watch Peng Shuangquan's people causing trouble down there.
Qin Xiaoyong left the office, secretly determined in his heart that no matter what, he would do his best for Hu Fei this time. His fate was already tied to Hu Fei.
If Hu Fei loses the election at the National People's Congress this time, he will naturally have no shame in staying in Wuling any longer, and his good days as a secretary will naturally come to an end.
Even for himself, Qin Xiaoyong had to fight hard. After following Hu Fei for more than half a year, he also learned Hu Fei's composure. Although he didn't learn the essence, he still had some similarities.
Qin Xiaoyong first weighed the situation in his mind. Now Hu Fei has an advantage over Peng Shuangquan in two aspects. One is the reputation of justice. After all, Hu Fei is the mayor candidate appointed by the provincial committee. The other aspect is that Hu Fei came to Wuling at a short time.
He has made a lot of achievements as a leader. He is an old leader who does practical things for the masses.
In fact, the easiest thing to make a fuss about is Hu Fei's billions of net worth. After all, there are too few leading cadres who do very well these days. If the masses want to distinguish whether a leading cadre is good or bad, then the family of the leading cadres
Property is the standard by which the masses measure the quality of a leading cadre.
Hu Fei's family has billions of assets, and his wife is often on TV news and on the covers of various financial magazines. Such a leader will naturally not have corruption problems. Who is the best choice compared to Peng Shuangquan?
Naturally it is clear at a glance.
Qin Xiaoyong knew that after Peng Shuangquan bought almost a lot of votes, the next move would be for many representatives to unite to nominate Peng Shuangquan as the mayor candidate.
Moreover, this move will not be exposed very early. After all, if it is exposed prematurely, it will definitely arouse the vigilance of the provincial party committee. Not only will Peng Shuangquan not be able to become mayor, but he may also be severely dealt with.
But, Peng Shuangquan? If there really is an election incident, even if he can really win the election with votes, will the provincial party committee appoint him as mayor?
There is no intention to implement the instructions of the Provincial Party Committee, but this election is the power granted by the Constitution to the National People's Congress deputies. Thinking about this, Qin Xiaoyong is also confused, and does not have a clear judgment on how things will go next, but
, he knew he didn't have much time.
The weather was getting colder and colder. Hu Fei went into the office and rubbed his hands. Qin Xiaoyong had already made him a cup of strong hot tea. Because the air conditioner was turned on early, the temperature in the room was very suitable.
"Xiao Qin, has there been any movement in the yard these days?"
Hu Fei picked up the water glass and took a sip, then raised his head and glanced at Qin Xiaoyong.
"Boss, there's not much movement in the yard."
Qin Xiaoyong shook his head, "However, the news outside is very confusing. Many people think you are the most suitable person to serve as mayor."
"Oh, what do you mean?"
Hu Fei suddenly became interested, "Tell me about it."
"First, you are the mayor candidate designated by the provincial party committee and have a great reputation. Second, you have only been in Wuling for half a year, but you have achieved great results in the tourism work you are in charge of, not only making various scenic spots
With the awareness of service, our tourism industry in Wuling has developed rapidly, and you have personally introduced two major projects, etc. In short, you have achieved results in the past six months that many leaders have not been able to achieve in several years."
"The third reason is also the most popular news. Many people know that your family has a lot of money. If you become the mayor, you will definitely not engage in corruption or bribery or enrich your own pockets."
Qin Xiaoyong chuckled, "So, more people hope that you can serve as mayor and lead the people on the road to wealth."
"It seems that the eyes of the masses are really sharp."
Hu Fei laughed, took out a cigarette in a good mood, lit it and took a puff. He looked at Qin Xiaoyong meaningfully and said with a smile, "Xiao Qin, this rumor has spread like crazy, and he seems to understand me very well."
"Boss, you were only in charge of tourism work before, so not many people know about your deeds. I think you can go and inspect more now, so that people in the officialdom can better understand your actions and your ambitions, so that everyone can
We all realize that you are the most suitable person to serve as mayor."
Qin Xiaoyong chuckled. He knew that his little move could not be hidden from Hu Fei. However, he did it out of sincerity, and Hu Fei would not blame him.
"You little comrade, you seem to have done a lot of work."
Hu Fei laughed and said, "Moreover, it turns out that these little tricks of yours are very effective. Secretary Deng called me last night and said that I have become famous recently. I didn't know about this until she said this. It seems that I have to
Thank you."
"Boss, you're welcome. This is what I should do."
Qin Xiaoyong smiled, looking a bit honest.
"Okay, since you are so smart, help me read these reports."
Hu Fei laughed at his second aunt, opened several reports in front of him, glanced at them one by one, and then threw them to Qin Xiaoyong.
Qin Xiaoyong opened a document and took a look. It was a report asking for money from the Municipal Radio, Film and Television Bureau. He picked up another report and took a look. It was a report asking for money from the Municipal Water Conservancy Bureau. The remaining reports were also
The report asking for money couldn't help but get angry, "Boss, this, this, this is clearly blackmailing you, who gave them the courage?"
"Who gave them the courage?"
Hu Fei sighed, "It was the people who gave them the courage, and it was the votes in their hands that gave them the courage. They know that in the next election, their votes are very important to me, and this is not for
They ask for money themselves, so naturally they feel confident."
"Furthermore, the success rate for submitting a report to the leaders and asking for money during the election period is too high. It's not my own money, so I will naturally approve it if I can at this time. I guess they think so too."
"Boss, there's nothing we can do about it. The trend is like this. I heard that it's like this in many places across the province."
Qin Xiaoyong sighed, "For the sake of the overall situation, I can only turn a blind eye to these things."
