Rebirth of the Rising Sun

"Okay, then I'll try to ask." Feng Sizhe felt that this suggestion was a good one. The Art of War says that only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle. From He Jianzheng's incident this time, he could feel that Lu Xingye was setting a trap for him. Since the other party already knew him and took action, it would be wrong for him not to understand the other party.

After hanging up the phone with Miao Zihan, Feng Sizhe continued to review the documents. Although he had just specifically told Miao Zihan to take care of her health and not to work too hard, he was also working hard when it came to him. As the saying goes, one should do his job well. Since he was the secretary of the municipal party committee, there was naturally a lot of work for him to do.

He continued to review documents in the afternoon until the end of the get off work day. Feng Sizhe stretched his body and called his secretary Liu Fei to ask, "Have the two elders of the Wang family arrived?"

"Yes, they've arrived. Comrade Wang Lihua borrowed a car from me to pick them up. And my sister-in-law just called me and asked if we could host a banquet for the two elders of the Wang family in the evening." The sister-in-law Liu Fei was referring to was naturally Feng Sizhe's legal wife He Shasha.

"Well, I think it's okay. How about this, you go to the city hotel and book a private room, and then I'll go pick up your sister-in-law, and we'll meet at the hotel later." Feng Sizhe nodded. His wife He Shasha is a good woman. She can think of everything and has helped him solve many problems. If he must describe her in one sentence, it would be that with a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?

In the best box of Zhuangcheng Hotel at night, Feng Sizhe, He Shasha, Xiao Yueqing, Wang Tianpei, Yu Aiying, Wang Lihua, Yin Fenglei, Liu Fei, and Li Shuang were all present. This was just a family gathering, so no outsiders were invited. Xiao Ying was originally invited, but because she was getting married the day after tomorrow, her family was also busy, so she didn't come. Instead, only these family members were invited. But saying family members is not entirely correct, because Yin Fenglei is also present.

He Shasha took the initiative to take over the role of host, and kept calling Uncle Wang and Aunt Yu, which kept the atmosphere at the dinner table good. Also because there were no outsiders, the two elders of the Wang family were not so nervous and kept praising little Yueqing for her beauty.

Halfway through the meal, Feng Sizhe asked for leave, then nodded to Yin Fenglei who was sitting next to him, and then walked into the small room in the box, which he had asked Liu Fei to arrange in advance for the convenience of conversation. It was only after seeing the look in Feng Sizhe's eyes that Yin Fenglei's mood calmed down a little. He had been wondering why he could attend such a party. Now, seeing Feng Sizhe's eyes, he knew that Secretary Feng must have something to ask him.

With a nervous and apprehensive mood, Yin Fenglei walked into the small room and stood respectfully opposite Feng Sizhe.

"Okay, there are only two of us here. You don't have to be so polite. Just sit down." Feng Sizhe said casually to Yin Fenglei.

"Yes." He agreed and sat down on the chair in front of him. However, he only sat there for a long time, looking like a leader who would stand up whenever he was called.

Seeing Yin Fenglei following the rules like this, Feng Sizhe was even happier. "Well, I asked you to come here today because I wanted to talk to you. I called Secretary Miao Zihan this afternoon and told her about you. She praised you very much."

"Secretary Miao is a female Mulan, a female hero, and I have always admired her. It's a pity that the time we worked together was too short, and I learned very little." Yin Fenglei said politely. In fact, he was very happy. He believed that what Feng Sizhe and Miao Zihan talked about on the phone should be his own business, which meant that he had entered their sight, which was definitely a good thing, and he should cherish it.

"Haha, if Secretary Miao knew you praised her like this, she would probably be very happy." Feng Sizhe laughed. This Yin Fenglei was very good at flattering people. It seemed that officials become like this after being in office for a long time. He praises someone while trying not to leave any traces. This is probably a kind of work ability.

Hearing Feng Sizhe say this, Yin Fenglei smiled embarrassedly, then continued to sit up straight. He knew that Feng Sizhe had come to him so seriously, he must have something to ask him. If he wanted to gain his trust, he had to be very attentive.

Seeing Yin Fenglei adjust his mentality so quickly, Feng Sizhe nodded again. Very good. Such a young man knows the importance and the degree, which is very rare. Since he is so sensible, he does not intend to beat around the bush and decides to ask directly. Of course, asking questions like this seems a bit impulsive, but it is also a good opportunity to observe Yin Fenglei. "Fenglei, I called you here this time because I have something to ask you and want to hear your views and opinions."

"Secretary, please speak." Yin Fenglei expressed his position firmly, and even deliberately removed the word "Feng" in front of the word "Secretary", showing his strong intention of surrendering.

"Okay, you have been working in the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League for a while, right?" Feng Sizhe asked Yin Fenglei with a smile. Although there were some things he wanted to ask directly, some necessary preparation was still necessary.

"Yes, Secretary. I went to the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League after I graduated from university. I was only 21 years old that year. Now it has been more than six years." Yin Fenglei answered respectfully.

"Okay, then I wonder if you are familiar with the personnel situation there." Feng Sizhe asked Yin Fenglei with a smile. Having worked in a place and a unit for more than six years, I believe he should be very familiar with the situation there.

"Fortunately, I know the general situation of cadres. Of course, I am not too clear about several secretaries of the Communist Youth League Central Committee. As you know, my position is low, and there are some situations that I should not inquire about." At this time, Yin Fenglei seemed to have known the purpose of Feng Sizhe calling him here, so he answered like this. He thought that Feng Sizhe, in his position, should be concerned about high-level matters, and his low level should not attract his attention.

"Oh, so you know the situation of ordinary cadres except for a few league secretaries." Feng Sizhe didn't quite believe this. What did he mean by I know clearly? Ordinary cadres would not speak so confidently, especially Yin Fenglei. He gave him the impression of being very cautious. Such a person should not say such arrogant words.

"Well, I know the situation of cadres below the level of director general very well." To Feng Sizhe's surprise, Yin Fenglei repeated what he had just said. It seemed that he knew the situation of cadres below the level of director general very well.

"Oh, then tell me about Comrade Miao Zihan's work experience first." Feng Sizhe didn't quite believe what Yin Fenglei said, so he asked as if testing him.

"Okay." Yin Fenglei nodded, and after hesitating for less than ten seconds, he spoke, "Miao Zihan, female, divorced. Born in 1969, years old this year. Grandfather is Miao Fengshan, former Minister of the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, father is Miao Yunfeng, current Minister of the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, and mother is former Deputy Director of the State Administration of Taxation, now retired at home. She grew up in a family with the title of China's No. Family, which made her have a man's tenacious personality despite being a woman. In her early years, she studied at Oxford University, a well-known university in the UK. She returned to China in and then joined the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League as Deputy Director of the Second Division. Later, she went to the local area and served as an ordinary deputy mayor, then as the head of the Municipal Organization Department, Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Mayor, and now Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. She has a strong personality. People who work with her say that she tends to be a workaholic, and she is fair and efficient..."

It took Yin Fenglei seven or eight minutes to finish talking about Miao Zihan's work history, including listing many other people's evaluations in other aspects. It was as if he was just reading some information. This surprised Feng Sizhe very much. It was really beyond his expectation that this person had such a good memory.

As if he had noticed Feng Sizhe's surprised expression, Yin Fenglei lowered his head and said embarrassedly, "Secretary, I used to be the top scorer in the liberal arts college entrance examination in my province. I have a very good memory. Although I can't remember everything I see, I can remember 70% to 80% of many things as long as I have seen them once. I think this is a skill given to me by God."

"Okay, since that's the case, I'm going to test you. Let me ask you, you know Lu Xingye, right? Can you tell me about his situation?" Feng Sizhe took the opportunity to bring up the name Lu Xingye.

"Lu Xingye?" A hint of surprise flashed across Yin Fenglei's face, but it was quickly concealed. In fact, Feng Sizhe had been observing the other party's expression. It was indeed inappropriate for him to ask so abruptly. It was not in accordance with the procedure. If it were to be spread out, it would definitely be bad for him. However, as long as Yin Fenglei still had a bit of smartness, he would not do such a thing. It would not benefit him at all to betray himself and offend himself openly. Moreover, he could not do anything to him just because of this.

Obviously, Yin Fenglei didn't expect Feng Sizhe to ask questions about Lu Xingye. In his opinion, the two people were not even close. But since he asked, and he boasted first, he had to face this problem.

About two minutes later, Yin Fenglei recalled carefully and said, "Lu Xingye was born in 1972, he is 32 years old this year, married, his wife is Wo Xiaomei, born in a military family, his father is Wo Lingming, commander of the Shancheng Provincial Military Region, and his uncle is Wo Lingguang, political commissar of the Central Plains Military Region. Lu Xingye himself is the nephew of the former Prime Minister Comrade Lu Guofan, his third uncle is Comrade Lu Guodong, and his fourth uncle is Comrade Lu Guoliang, they are the Secretary of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Minister of Finance respectively, it can be said that they have great power in the government and the opposition."
