Rebirth of the Rising Sun

"Okay, everyone, please take a seat. We called you here in such a hurry because something big has happened. Let's allow Secretary Yuan to introduce the situation." Seeing that everyone had arrived, Qiao Yongjun stretched out his hands and signaled that everyone should not be polite and just sit down.

Everyone sat down according to their seats, and then Yuan Sheng, the secretary of the Provincial Political and Legal Committee, spoke. "Leaders and comrades, I just received a report from the Yongyang Municipal Party Committee, saying that Comrade Meng Donglai, the secretary of Qiu County, which is under the jurisdiction of Yongyang City, suddenly had a car accident on his way back to Qiu County from the Municipal Party Committee. The car overturned into a deep ditch beside the road, and the car was destroyed on the spot. Including the secretary and the driver, a total of three people died."

"What?" Hearing that a county party secretary had died like this, Tong Zhengcai, Liu Wenyu, Guan Changxiao and others stood up from their seats. Liu Wenyu was the quickest to react, "Well, Comrade Yuan Sheng, has the Yongyang Municipal Party Committee sent someone to identify the cause? Is this an accidental death, or...?"

"Deputy Secretary Liu hit the nail on the head. After investigating the scene, the Yongyang Municipal Public Security Bureau discovered that the brake line of the car Comrade Meng Donglai was riding in was severely damaged. It is suspected that the brake line of the car suddenly broke during an emergency, and the car then rushed into the deep ditch on the side of the road without any obstruction." Yuan Sheng reported the report of the Yongyang Municipal Public Security Bureau.

Everyone was silent when they heard this. The brake line suddenly broke, which shouldn't have happened. Moreover, this was the car of a county party secretary, and it should have been maintained on time. If such a thing still happened, we couldn't help but suspect the possibility of human intervention.

If it was really man-made, who would have the guts to harm a county party secretary like this? Now is a peaceful era, and the murder of a county party secretary is definitely a major event, and it has to arouse everyone's vigilance.

Everyone was silent, so Qiao Yongjun had to speak up. "Okay, comrades, a county cannot be without a county party secretary. What should Yongyang City do now? Should we investigate the cause of Comrade Meng Donglai's death first or send a county party secretary to stabilize the situation? I think everyone should discuss it and express your ideas."

Essentially speaking, if a new county party secretary is sent to take office before the matter is thoroughly investigated, there is a possibility of being harmed. But then again, a county cannot be without a leader for a day, and it cannot be without a county party secretary, which means that a new county party secretary must be sent, but what kind of person should be sent? In the environment of Qiu County, it is obvious that the new county party secretary must be courageous, brave, in good health, and dare to fight against all illegal actions. If he is not such a talent, then it is very likely that another innocent soul will appear soon. Even if this is not the case, if the new county party secretary is not courageous enough and cannot suppress the situation in Qiu County, he will also be unqualified.

In this way, the county party secretary of Qiu County is required to have more requirements than the actual county party secretary. At least this county party secretary should be younger, more decisive, and able to control the situation. Otherwise, the situation in Qiu County is likely to become more chaotic, and the consequences are unimaginable.

"I think we should first send a county party secretary to Qiu County to take charge of affairs. After all, the cause of Comrade Meng Donglai's death has not been clarified yet, and everything is just suspicion. Besides, this is not the point in the current situation. The point is to stabilize the situation in Qiu County first and prevent other incidents from happening." Governor Tong Zhengcai thought for a while and expressed his opinion.

"I think what Governor Tong said is very right. We should first send a new county party secretary to stabilize the situation. The actual incident can be investigated afterwards." Liu Wenyu, deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, expressed his support for Tong Zhengcai's opinion.

Since two comrades agreed to send a county party secretary first, the real people naturally didn't say much, and it was necessary to do so first in the current situation. But who should be sent to be the county party secretary? You know, this is not a good thing, but it is facing danger. If Comrade Meng Donglai was really killed by someone, it is hard to guarantee that the new county party secretary will also encounter such a scene, so this is not a good job.

Everyone sat there and pondered for a long time, but there was no suitable candidate. In fact, there are many people who are qualified to be the county party secretary, but there are very few who are qualified for the county party secretary of Qiu County. Those who are capable are not necessarily young, and those who are young are not necessarily capable, which is a headache for everyone.

Guan Changxiao, the Provincial Party Committee Organization Minister, was also thinking with his head down. In fact, he already had a candidate in mind, but he didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing to propose this candidate, and whether it was right or wrong to put him in danger.

Guan Changxiao lowered his head for a long time without saying a word. He did not discuss with other leaders present. Seeing his performance, the provincial party secretary Qiao Yongjun spoke up, "Minister Guan, what are you thinking about? Do you have any ideas?"

Hearing Secretary Qiao asking him, Guan Changxiao raised his head and said, "Secretary Qiao, I do have a candidate in mind, but I don't know if he is suitable."

"What's suitable or not? Just say it first. We're all here, so we can discuss it." Qiao Yongjun was quite enthusiastic. He thought that since no one was talking, it would be better to let Guan Changxiao put forward his candidate first, and everyone could discuss it. It would be like throwing out some ideas.

Seeing that Secretary Qiao asked him to name the candidate, Guan Changxiao hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Governor Tong and others. Seeing that they were all looking at him with encouragement, he gritted his teeth and proposed his candidate, "I think the current head of Dahu County, Yongyang City, Comrade Feng Sizhe, can be qualified for this position."

As soon as Guan Changxiao said this result, Tong Zhengcai was shocked.

As I said earlier, being qualified to be the secretary of the Qiu County Party Committee is not necessarily a good thing. On the contrary, it may be dangerous if it is not handled properly. Then let Feng Sizhe take this dangerous position, okay? Although it is considered a small promotion from the county magistrate to the secretary of the county party committee, the danger is too great. Is it appropriate to put Feng Sizhe in this dangerous position? At this moment, he was even a little angry that Guan Changxiao had so rashly proposed Feng Sizhe's name. This proposal was a bit too hasty.

Tong Zhengcai was a little confused, because he didn't think it was a good idea to go to Qiu County, a problematic fire pit, at this moment. But another person, Liu Wenyu, the full-time deputy secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, didn't think so. He just didn't think of Feng Sizhe, so he didn't think of having such a young and capable cadre under him. Now that Guan Changxiao reminded him, if he couldn't react, he would be a big fool.

"Well, Comrade Chang Xiao's proposal is worth discussing. I know Feng Sizhe. Preliminarily, he still meets the conditions for this candidate. He is young, energetic, courageous, and has some means. He happens to be the county magistrate, so he can take this opportunity to be promoted to the position of county party secretary. In addition, he is a cadre of Yongyang City, which is under the jurisdiction of Qiu County. If he is appointed as the secretary, it will not make people feel that he is doing it intentionally, and it can quickly stabilize the situation in Qiu County. I think it's good." Liu Wenyu became more and more excited as he talked, especially when he thought that as a cadre of Yongyang City, if Feng Sizhe could take office in Qiu County immediately, it would not be easy to be suspected. On the contrary, if the provincial party committee transferred cadres from other places, the problem would be really big, and it would inevitably make others think too much. Did Meng Donglai's matter attract the attention of the provincial party committee? In this way, the transfer of Yongyang's own cadres to each other would not make others think too much.

Liu Wenyu mentioned so many advantages at once that even Secretary Qiao Yongjun became interested. "Oh, there are such cadres in Yongyang City. What's going on? Tell me about it."

Secretary Qiao became interested, and Zhu Yingcai, the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, who was sitting next to him, smiled and said, "Well, I have heard of Feng Sizhe, but I still need to think carefully about whether he is suitable to be the secretary of Qiu County. As far as I know, he is still very young."

Zhu Yingcai was certainly not unfamiliar with Feng Sizhe. He would never forget that he was the future son-in-law of the He family's granddaughter. It was because his general Cheng Jinbao did not know about this relationship that he went to investigate him and caused a lot of trouble. It would be fine if such a seemingly precious person of the He family was an official in peace, but if he went to such a complicated place as Qiu County, would there be problems? If he had problems, how would the Zhongzhou Provincial Party Committee explain it? Would he be hated by others because of this? It was difficult to talk about it, so he spoke in a hesitant and even opposing tone.

"Yes, I have seen Feng Sizhe. Although he has some ability, he is too young after all. And as far as I know, he has been the county magistrate for less than two years. Isn't it a bit too hasty to be the secretary now? Can a young man in his twenties handle the situation in Qiu County? I don't think it's possible. Regarding this decision, I hope the provincial party committee must be cautious." Yuan Sheng, secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, immediately said these words with an opposing attitude. Thinking back to the time when he suffered a loss at the hands of this young boy, he must turn the situation around now. He wants to let others know that he will not forget about provoking him and his daughter.
