Rebirth of the Rising Sun

Seeing that Ru Honghai seemed to be moved, Mou Guoyang hurriedly said: "This is the current situation in Tongda City. Unless Feng Sizhe is transferred, I can see that the two of us will be suppressed to death by him sooner or later."

"Transfer?" Upon hearing this word, Ru Honghai raised his head, looked at Mou Guoyang and asked, "Secretary Mou, do you have any good ideas?"

"Haha, of course there is a way. As long as you and I join forces, I believe we can fight against Feng Sizhe." Mou Guoyang said with great confidence.

Ru Honghai was not very optimistic about this statement. In his opinion, even if he joined forces with the Gan faction, he would not be able to defeat Feng Sizhe. Besides, if he joined forces with the Gan faction, he was afraid that the Qin faction would have some ideas.

Seeing that Ru Honghai did not seem to agree with this suggestion, Mou Guoyang just laughed and said, "Why? Mayor Ru has no confidence?"

"It's not that I don't have confidence. As you know, in the Municipal Party Committee, only Mayor Deng supports my work. But when it comes to major issues, he still listens to Feng Sizhe. And on your side, the number of votes is limited. Even if you and I join forces, we can't shake Feng Sizhe's position in the Municipal Party Committee." Ru Honghai said helplessly.

To be honest, since He Wenbao came to Tongda City, Feng Sizhe's position has been as solid as a rock. First, he had the support of Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary Hong Tao, and then there was Deng Lei from the Qin faction and Duan Hewei from the Duan faction, in addition to the United Front Minister Wang Lixue and the military sub-district commander Li Wei (in view of the fact that the original Li Pengwei's name was always harmonized because it had the same characters as the original central leaders, the commander was renamed Li Wei. We apologize for any inconvenience caused to everyone.) and the later Propaganda Minister He Wenbao, Feng Sizhe has already secured seven votes of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee. This advantage is not something that Ru Honghai and Mou Guoyang can achieve together.

Mou Guoyang certainly knew that even if the Gan faction plus Ru Honghai were to take advantage of him, he would still say that. Obviously, there were other ways. "Well, I think Mayor Ru misunderstood. I didn't say that I would argue with him at the Standing Committee. I was thinking of other ways. For example, in view of Feng Sizhe's arbitrary behavior in Tongda City, can we jointly report it to the Provincial Party Committee? I don't believe that with our ability and influence, will we not attract the attention of the Provincial Party Committee?"

Indeed, if the mayor and deputy secretary of a city jointly oppose the municipal party secretary, the provincial party committee cannot but pay attention to it. Although people below will have different governing policies due to different ideas, generally such things will not cause too much trouble, because once it really happens, the higher-ups will pay attention to it, and often punish both sides, which will not benefit anyone. However, the current situation is that if Ru Honghai and Mou Guoyang do not take this approach, they will not be able to touch Feng Sizhe at all. Instead of waiting to die here, it is better to give it a try, even if they are criticized.

At this moment, Ru Honghai made up his mind. He picked up the cup and said to Mou Guoyang, "Okay, let's fight for a while this time."

"Haha, Mayor Ru is so straightforward. I, Mou Guoyang, admire you." Seeing that Ru Honghai agreed immediately, Mou Guoyang was very happy.

. . . . . . . . . . . .

In the office of Li Bo, member of the Provincial Party Committee and Minister of Organization, Mou Guoyang stood obediently in front of him.

"Well, do you think you can cause trouble for Feng Sizhe with just this?" Looking at the document signed by Ru Honghai and Mou Guoyang reporting Feng Sizhe's arbitrary behavior in Tongda City, Li Bo asked Mou Guoyang.

Mou Guoyang knew that he couldn't do anything to Feng Sizhe with just these. But it was Ru Honghai who took the lead this time, and Ru Honghai represented the Qin faction, so he believed that if the Qin and Gan factions jointly sued Feng Sizhe, the provincial party committee would definitely pay attention to it.

So, Mou Guoyang smiled and told Li Bo his thoughts. Li Bo didn't expect that Mou Guoyang had such twists and turns in his mind. Now that he thought about it, it was true. He nodded and said, "Well, what you think makes sense. OK, then send this to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and see what Secretary Sima says.

Li Bo also knew that Sima Lie, member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, was a member of the Lu faction. He also disliked Feng Sizhe. He was sure that if the matter was reported to him, he would also take it seriously. When the time came, he would make a phone call and explain the situation. He believed that it should not be a problem to report the matter to the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and the Governor.

Under Li Bo's operation and with Sima Lie's consent, the matter was reported to Kang Donglin, the prestigious provincial party committee secretary. In the office of the provincial party committee secretary, the top two brothers of Shanxi Province were sitting together looking at the report.

"Governor Zheng, it seems that the people below are quite dissatisfied with Feng Sizhe." As the secretary of the provincial party committee, Kang Donglin is familiar with the city-level cadres, especially the mayor and the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee. He has a standard in his mind about their backgrounds and identities. Especially this time, the letter of complaint was jointly written by Ru Honghai from the Qin faction and Mou Guoyang from the Gan faction, which would attract his attention.

Zheng Zhi also knew what Kang Donglin was thinking about. If it was just Mou Guoyang, then he wouldn't have to care about him. After all, Feng Sizhe wanted to reform Tongda City, which would inevitably involve the interests of the Gan faction. It was normal for Mou Guoyang to be unhappy. But this time, even Ru Honghai got involved, so they had to pay attention. Who knew if this was the intention of the Qin faction? The current Qin faction could not be compared with the past. Seeing that the 16th National Congress was about to be held, they were going to be promoted to number one. Under such circumstances, the Qin faction's affairs were enough to attract their attention.

"Well, I wonder what Secretary Kang thinks?" Zheng Zhi asked Kang Donglin for his opinion.

"I think about this. It's better for us not to make any statement before this matter is clarified. If Governor Zheng has time, he can go to Tongda City and talk to some individuals." Kang Donglin also knew that no matter whether it was Ru Honghai, Mou Guoyang or Feng Sizhe, they were not people who could be easily provoked. Although he is now the secretary of the provincial party committee and can use the power in his hands to adjust their work at any time, he really doesn't want to do so. Kang Donglin, who is already old and knows that this is his last stop, wants to maintain stability. He doesn't want to have too much contact with any forces and cause any turmoil, so after thinking about it, he decided to leave the matter to Zheng Zhi.

Zheng Zhi knew that Kang Donglin wanted to hand the matter over to him. After thinking about it, he realized that he had not been to Tongda City since he took office in Shanxi Province. This was a good opportunity to take a look. There was nothing wrong with that. "Okay, then I'll go to Tongda City to learn about the situation."

Seeing Zheng Zhi agreed, Kang Donglin just laughed and said, "Okay, let Governor Zheng handle the matter, and I can rest assured."

Afterwards, the Tongda Municipal Party Committee received a call from the Secretary-General of the Provincial Government, saying that Governor Zheng Zhi would go to Tongda City for research in three days and asked comrades there to make relevant preparations.

After receiving this notice, Guan Haojiang, Secretary General of Tongda Municipal Party Committee, immediately reported the matter to Feng Sizhe, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. Of course, he also reported to Mou Guoyang at the same time. They were all from the Gansu faction, so they still had to say hello to each other on many matters.

In fact, there was no need for Guan Haojiang to report to Mou Guoyang, as people would have known about it, because Feng Sizhe issued a notice at the first opportunity, that is, all members of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee must hold a Standing Committee meeting at 3:30 pm to discuss the issue of how to welcome Governor Zheng Zhi.

It is a big deal for the head of a province to come to a city under his jurisdiction, so it is normal for Feng Sizhe to make some preparations in advance.

At the meeting, Feng Sizhe issued some instructions to the Municipal Political and Legal Committee and the Municipal Propaganda Department respectively, and made arrangements for the safety and publicity issues after Governor Zheng Zhi arrived in Tongda City. He then arranged for Guan Haojiang to send someone to clean the Municipal Party Committee building, as well as the meals for the governor and his entourage. Only then did the meeting adjourn.

After leaving the meeting room, Mou Guoyang smiled and said to Ru Honghai in front of him, "Mayor Ru, do you have time? I want to report something to you."

"Okay, then why don't I go to your office." Ru Honghai also understood what the other person meant. He thought that this was the Municipal Party Committee Building and he didn't have his own office, so it would be better not to go to Mou Guoyang's place.

In the office of the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, Ru Honghai and Mou Guoyang were smoking and chatting about Governor Zheng Zhi's visit to Tongda City.

"Mayor Ru, Governor Zheng's visit this time is not simple." Mou Guoyang took a puff of cigarette and said this as he slowly exhaled.

"Yes, it seems that our letter of complaint did work." Ru Honghai also nodded. He had already guessed why the governor suddenly came to Tongda City this time. He believed that the inspection work was only one aspect of the problem.

"Well, let's discuss what we should do?" Mou Guoyang asked Xiang Ruhonghai.

. . . . . . . . . . . .

Feng Sizhe was sitting in his office, he was very surprised, shouldn't Governor Zheng be thinking about attending the 16th National Congress at this time? But how could he have time to come to Tongda City for inspection? This was very abnormal. What was the reason for this?

The office door was gently pushed open, and Chen Guangming walked in. He was refilling Feng Sizhe's tea, but when pouring the water, he inadvertently said, "Boss, Mayor Ru is still in Deputy Secretary Mou's office. He has been in there for half an hour."

"Hmm? Oh." Feng Sizhe nodded thoughtfully after hearing what Chen Guangming said. Now Ru Honghai is getting close to Mou Guoyang again. Is it because of Comrade Yu Fude's problem? If so, then Mayor Ru is too narrow-minded. The most important thing is that he has not learned any experience from the last incident? Will Mou Guoyang help you well? Obviously, he has a request. Ru Honghai may fall into the trap of the other party.
