Rebirth of the Rising Sun

Zheng Wu had no idea that the people responsible for tracking him were all reconnaissance heroes from the Ministry of Public Security. These people dealt with these desperate criminals every day, and they were already very familiar with Zheng Wu's little tricks. Naturally, it was extremely difficult for them to discover them.

Although he didn't find anything wrong, Zheng Wu still habitually closed all his communications. He decided to leave the capital province for a while and come back when his feelings were not so strong.

So, Zheng Wu got on a long-distance bus from the capital to other provinces. Wearing a white baseball cap and a very casual sportswear, he blended into the long-distance bus like a tourist.

Zuo Bing's men had already noticed this scene. Seeing that the target was about to escape, they called Zuo Bing to ask what to do next.

Catching someone in a long-distance bus would obviously easily cause a big commotion. Unfortunately, Zuo Bing didn't have many available people around him, and Zheng Wu was definitely a very key figure. He had to be caught without anyone noticing, otherwise, if there was a little noise, it would easily cause a big problem and scare off some big fish.

Although Zuo Bing had a group of brothers in the Provincial Political and Legal Affairs Commission and even some die-hard supporters in the Public Security Bureau, he knew that these people could not be used to do this. It was not that he did not trust these people, but he was really not sure about their abilities. This Zheng Wu was absolutely a 100% desperado. If such a person could not be arrested once, then catching him a second time would be as difficult as climbing to the sky.

In desperation, Zuo Bing had to follow the trump card left by Feng Sizhe and call Huo Zhun, the director of the National Security Bureau of Ducheng Province.

It is really not possible to trouble the National Security Bureau for ordinary matters. After all, it is an independent system and ordinary people cannot command it. But this time Zuo Bing did use Feng Sizhe as an example. As one of the senior officials of the country, the safety of Mr. Feng is also the responsibility of the Provincial National Security Bureau. This time, in the name of arresting the murderer who had conspired to frame Feng Sizhe, Huo Zhun had no choice but to help.

With the intervention of the National Security Bureau, things became much easier. There were many experts there, and although Zheng Wu was considered a capable person, he could not possibly be a match for such a powerful organization.

Just like that, three national security elites who sneaked into the long-distance bus arrested Zheng Wu in front of many people on the grounds that he was a thief and they were plainclothes police officers.

Zheng Wu was unlucky enough. He had never stolen anything from anyone, but under the frame-up of three national security elites, he had several other people's wallets on him for some reason. If he had been caught, he would have become a rat crossing the street, and everyone would want to catch him. However, it was just catching a thief, so of course this matter would not have any impact.

After Zheng Wu was captured, he was immediately sent to a courtyard that Zuo Bing had rented a long time ago in the capital province. Here, the comrades from Kyoto invited by Zuo Bing began their unique way of interrogating him. They believed that as long as this person was still a human being, still had his own thoughts, and still felt pain, there would be no questions they could not ask.

If the investigation launched by Zuo Bing was a private act that Feng Sizhe had prepared long ago and could not be seen in public, then Bai Caixia's Aqid Group coming to the country to invest was an open conspiracy.

On the surface, any province is eligible to compete and attract investment, but in fact, this matter has already been decided. With the relationship between Feng Sizhe and Bai Caixia, unless he does not want this investment, no one can snatch this qualification away.

Zhang Yang took some relevant materials prepared by the Capital Provincial Government, and boarded a plane to Kyoto with several staff members of the provincial government. It must be said that, relatively speaking, the personnel sent by the Capital Province to compete this time are the weakest, or the least important. Compared with other provinces, where vice governors, even executive and standing vice governors, and some even governors themselves, the Capital Province only sent a provincial government secretary-general at the department level, which easily gave people the illusion that the Capital Province was simply here to take advantage of the situation, and they had no confidence in making this happen.

Xu Chaoqi and others did not say anything about the lineup sent by the provincial government. Although he also hoped that the Aqid Consortium could bring a large amount of funds to settle in Ducheng Province this time, as a secretary, he would also be proud and have a great political achievement. However, he knew in his heart that the foundation of Ducheng Province was too weak, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was poor and backward. How could such conditions compete with other economically developed provinces? Everyone knows that good birds choose trees to inhabit, and the Aqid Consortium should know it even more.

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

Kyoto.

Inside the compound belonging to the Hou family, Hou Weidong was looking at the detailed information about the Aqid Group obtained from the Ministry of Commerce, with a gleam in his eyes.

The Central Government had just approved the appointment of Hou Weidong as the deputy secretary and acting governor of Sanxiang Province. He had just arrived in Sanxiang Province, but before he could even get comfortable, he received news that the world-famous oil family, the Aqid Consortium, was going to invest in the Republic. He immediately returned to Kyoto. In his opinion, this was definitely an opportunity. If he could grasp it well and bring these funds to Sanxiang Province, it would undoubtedly play a huge role in promoting his future development there.

If Feng Sizhe hadn't appeared, Hou Weidong might not have needed to worry, but now that someone younger than him had been appointed governor, he felt the pressure. Especially when he knew that many high-ranking officials in the country were optimistic about Feng Sizhe, he felt even more pressure.

It is true that Hou Weidong is a candidate for the future successor, but in the final analysis, he is just a candidate, and not the only one, so he needs to conquer others with practical actions and tell everyone that he can do it, that he is the most capable and the best. And this time is an opportunity for him.

As we all know, as the hometown of the great man, the economic development of Sanxiang Province is not very good, at least compared with those economically developed provinces, it still has many disadvantages. But because of this, if he can improve the economy of this province to a higher level, it will undoubtedly add a lot of points to him. So, in some ways, the backwardness of Sanxiang Province has become an advantage, at least Hou Weidong thinks so. Often the more backward a province is, the more obvious the results will be once it is improved.

Hou Weidong returned to the capital with a determined mentality. He even talked to his grandfather about this matter and got the support of the old man. For this reason, the old man even called the relevant leaders and said, if possible, please give the representatives of Sanxiang Province a chance to perform.

After Mr. Hou spoke, the relevant leaders, especially the heads of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Commerce, naturally did not dare to neglect it. They quickly put some information about Sanxiang Province on the top of the information of all provinces, so that the Aqid Consortium could pay attention to it at the first time. It can be said that they had good intentions.

Under the close attention of the provincial government leaders, the representatives of the Aqid Group finally took the opportunity to come to Kyoto accompanied by the staff of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of my country. Here, they were first warmly received by Comrade Duan Jianghe, the leader of the country. After that, after a friendly conversation between the two sides, they were arranged to stay in the Century Hotel, a hotel designated by the Ministry of Commerce.

According to reliable sources, the representatives of the Al-Aqid consortium who came to China this time turned out to be the heir of the Al-Aqid family, Alwaleed Al-Aqid, and his wife. This news immediately made the representatives of various provinces really excited again. Everyone was thinking that if they could establish a good relationship with the future heir of the Al-Aqid family, it would be beneficial to their career development in the future. After all, having such a rich friend who has a very high status in the international financial world is definitely a good help and a good thing.

To this end, representatives from all provinces and municipalities across the country gathered outside the World Hotel. Obviously, everyone wanted to have the opportunity to contact important figures of the Aqid family as soon as possible to gain an advantage for themselves.

Hou Weidong came, Wen Ruhao came, and Zhang Yang followed. It was obvious that although they represented various provinces and seemed to represent the public opinion of a province, the treatment here was completely different.

For example, Hou Weidong had already booked an excellent suite in the Century Hotel through his connections, and Wen Ruhao naturally also used his family connections to get a good suite. Only Zhang Yang, because he had no relatives or friends here and his power was too little, was naturally only assigned an ordinary room.

For this matter, the staff of the Capital Province government who came with Zhang Yang also raised doubts. That is, could they find someone, or even spend some money to smooth the relationship, to try to make the room location better, or at least have a room available? In this way, if they really manage to establish a relationship with the Aqid family, it wouldn't be too shabby to invite them over, right?

Facing his subordinates' questions, Zhang Yang simply replied, "The governor said that this time we must remain unchanged in the face of all changes. What is ours cannot be taken away by anyone."

Feng Sizhe's influence was there, and when he said this, naturally, it was difficult for others to say anything, but everyone was still worried. Although Feng Sizhe was very strong in Ducheng Province, and could even suppress the provincial party committee, would his influence still be so great in Kyoto? Couldn't they see what kind of representatives came from other provinces? The worst was the deputy governor, but our Ducheng Province only sent a department-level secretary-general. Just this level of attention was a far cry, so could this thing still work?
