Rebirth of the Rising Sun

In short, Feng Sizhe had to be on guard against these two people approaching each other again, and the fact that they were walking together just after he announced that Governor Zheng would come to Tongda City had to attract his attention.

In fact, Ru Honghai also knew that if he walked into Mou Guoyang's office at this time, it would definitely arouse Feng Sizhe's suspicion, but he was no longer afraid now. Since he had written a letter of complaint against Feng Sizhe to the provincial party committee, it meant that he was going to turn against this person. What was there for him to be afraid of at this time?

Three days later, at the highway junction between the provincial capital and Tongda City, Feng Sizhe and a group of standing committee members welcomed Zheng Zhi, member of the Tongda Municipal Party Committee, standing committee member, and governor. Accompanying Zheng Zhi to Tongda City were the secretary general of the provincial government and a small working group of the provincial discipline inspection commission.

Although the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection only sent a few people, it still attracted the attention of Feng Sizhe and the Standing Committee members of Tongda City. The fact that the people who came with the governor were not the economic inspection team, but the personnel of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, was very telling.

After learning that the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection had also come, Feng Sizhe remained calm and composed. Although he did not know that someone had written a letter of complaint against him, he did have a feeling that Governor Zheng's visit seemed to be a little bit against him. If it were someone else, he would definitely be nervous if a leader came to target him, but Feng Sizhe was not afraid. He believed that everything he had done in Tongda City could stand the test, so he was not afraid of others causing trouble for him.

Zheng Zhi first entered the Tongda Municipal Party Committee Building with Feng Sizhe and others, where he listened to the work reports of Feng Sizhe and Ru Honghai. He supervised the recent work of Tongda City. First, the small coal mines were sorted out, so that the public security and safety of the coal mines in Tongda City were well guaranteed. Then came the work of financial and government affairs disclosure. This work was the key work agreed to be piloted by the State Council, and now it seems that Tongda City has implemented it well. Many units have increased their work intensity a lot because of the disclosure of these two government affairs.

Zheng Zhi first praised the work of Tongda City, saying that the team of Tongda City had made certain achievements in some matters. Then he instructed that as the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China was about to be held, he hoped that Tongda City could maintain stability and make more achievements in all aspects to welcome the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.

As the municipal party committee secretary, Feng Sizhe expressed full support for the hopes and requests raised by Zheng Zhi on behalf of the Tongda Municipal Party Committee. He also stated that he would strictly implement the instructions of the Provincial Party Committee and do a good job in all aspects.

After Feng Sizhe finished saying all this, he looked at his watch. It was time for lunch, so he warmly invited Governor Zheng and his party to have a working lunch at the Tongda Municipal Party Committee Hotel. Zheng Zhi naturally agreed with a smile.

Because Governor Zheng had to look around Tongda City in the afternoon, no one drank much at noon. This was of course related to Zheng Zhi's strong refusal. Seeing that the governor didn't drink much, how could others dare to make any arrangements? After dinner, it was usual for the governor to have a lunch break, but at this time, he called Mayor Ru Honghai to his room.

The fact that the governor did not talk to the municipal party secretary first but to the mayor immediately caused a lot of discussion among the cadres below. Mou Guoyang in particular seemed very happy. At the same time, he kept spreading rumors to the cadres below, saying that this time Governor Zheng came to Tongda City, in addition to inspecting the work, he would also investigate Feng Sizhe's one-man show in Tongda City.

Since the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection also sent people to accompany him this time, the rumor was quickly believed by the cadres below. Some cadres even said directly that this time Feng Sizhe had offended Governor Zheng, and this time they were making advance preparations for Secretary Feng's transfer from Tongda City.

Feng's people soon learned about these rumors, and the news reached Feng Sizhe's ears through Chen Guangming.

Feng Sizhe did not rest this afternoon, but stayed in his office. He was not sure whether Governor Zheng would summon him later, so he could only wait in the office. Now, listening to Chen Guangming's report, a look of displeasure appeared on his face.

Feng Sizhe still didn't know that Ru Honghai and Mou Guoyang had jointly written a letter to the provincial party committee to accuse him of being autocratic, so he didn't make any further preparations. But when he got the signal at noon, he had an idea in his mind. He believed that this time Ru Honghai and Mou Guoyang had done something that caused Governor Zheng to come to Tongda City for inspection at this time.

Feng Sizhe spent the whole afternoon waiting for Governor Zheng to meet him, but when it was almost time for work in the afternoon, no one called him. Feng Sizhe felt a little disappointed. Could it be that Zheng Zhi just didn't believe him? From his understanding of Zheng Zhi, he was not the kind of leader who would just listen to words from afar.

Just when Feng Sizhe was still wondering what was going on, Governor Zheng finally called him.

"Comrade Sizhe, if you have time this afternoon, please accompany me to visit Tongda City." Zheng Zhi's voice exuded a sense of majesty even through the phone.

"Okay, then I wonder if the governor has any requests." When Feng Sizhe heard that it was Zheng Zhi who informed him directly, he felt excited. Under normal circumstances, such matters would just be conveyed by the secretary, but this time it was Zheng Zhi who called personally, which proved that the other party did not have too many opinions about him.

"Well, there are no requirements. Just make your own arrangements." Zheng Zhi hung up the phone after saying this. In fact, Zheng Zhi also knew that Feng Sizhe had been waiting in the office to meet him. He also knew that he had called Ru Honghai instead of him, which would definitely make Feng Sizhe think something. But there was no other way. He had to meet Ru Honghai first to hear how he described Feng Sizhe's arbitrary behavior in the Tongda Municipal Party Committee.

I thought Ru Honghai must have made sufficient preparations, at least he should have some examples, but after listening for a long time, I found that what Ru Honghai said was indeed not focused. Most of what he said was about Yu Fude, the former director of the Tongda Municipal Bureau of Land and Resources. He said that before Feng Sizhe dealt with Comrade Yu Fude, he did not greet him as the mayor, and even made a decision without convening the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee. This is arbitrary. Zheng Zhi did not think so about this. Yu Fude was just a director-level official. As a municipal party committee secretary at the level of a department, he had the right to transfer the heads of subordinate units, and he did not need to report this to the provincial party committee. As for deciding this matter without holding a standing committee, it was a bit wrong, but think about it, what Yu Fude did, it still needs to hold a standing committee to decide his whereabouts, this kind of thing has no room for maneuver, so he did not support Ru Honghai's statement that Feng Sizhe was arbitrary in his work style and had a one-man show.

After seeing off Ru Honghai, Zheng Zhi thought he should listen to Feng Sizhe's ideas. He wanted to see the insights of the youngest municipal party secretary in the country. So he asked Feng Sizhe to accompany them around Tongda City in the afternoon.

After Feng Sizhe hung up the phone, he immediately came to the Municipal Party Committee Hotel and greeted Zheng Zhi. Seeing Feng Sizhe coming, Zheng Zhi waved and said, "Come on, Comrade Sizhe, take my car."

In front of many people, Feng Sizhe got into Zheng Zhi's car, and seeing this scene, Ru Honghai and Mou Guoyang both smiled sinisterly. In their opinion, this must be Governor Zheng looking for Feng Sizhe for a talk. Humph, this time they didn't believe that Feng Sizhe would not be criticized. If he angered Governor Zheng again, he might even be transferred from Tongda City.

But in fact, what Ru Honghai and the others imagined did not happen in Governor Zheng's car. Zheng Zhi said to Feng Sizhe with a very kind face, "Comrade Sizhe, where are you going to take me first?"

"Since the governor is in charge of the economy, why don't we go to the Municipal Finance Bureau first?" Feng Sizhe had not made any preparations before, but now he believes that some things do not require too much preparation. As long as the work is done well, he can accept the inspection of the leaders at any time.

"Okay, then let's go to the Finance Bureau." Zheng Zhi thought that Feng Sizhe had already arranged everything, so he didn't say much.

At the Municipal Finance Bureau, when the governor's car arrived, everyone here was frightened. Many staff members had just arrived at work, and they did not expect that the governor would suddenly come here for inspection. Immediately, the newly appointed director Du Guang immediately ran downstairs with the bureau members.

When Zheng Zhi got out of the car and waited for a while, he was also stunned when he saw a group of people running out of the Finance Bureau building. It seemed that Feng Sizhe did not greet them in advance. Is this young man so confident? Isn't he afraid that he will see something he shouldn't see?

Feng Sizhe saw the look in Zheng Zhi's eyes and knew what he was thinking. So he stepped forward and said, "Governor Zheng, since you want to see it, I will of course show you the truest side. At the same time, I also believe that we can withstand the inspection and test of the market."

When Feng Sizhe said this, Zheng Zhi nodded happily, "Okay, Comrade Sizhe is still quite confident? In that case, I will take a good look at it."

"Governor Zheng, please." Feng Sizhe took the lead and led Zheng Zhi towards the Finance Bureau building.

Although Feng Sizhe had not made any special arrangements before, the municipal party committee had been promoting financial disclosure and fiscal disclosure with great efforts, and the assessment team was checking every now and then, so the staff here were used to it. When Zheng Zhi walked into the building of the Municipal Finance Bureau, he saw a notice board about financial disclosure and fiscal disclosure in the lobby. It not only recorded the direction of each large amount of funds of the Municipal Finance Bureau in recent times, but also recorded what kind of work the leaders of the Finance Bureau had been doing recently.
