Rebirth of the Rising Sun

Once this symbolic solicitation of opinions was completed, the meeting was basically over. After saying this, Xiang Kang was ready to get up and leave. But his butt was only two centimeters away from the seat when Feng Sizhe suddenly said, "I have something else to say."

"Hmm?" Xiang Kang glanced at Feng Sizhe with a puzzled look. Looking at the youngest person in the whole place, he thought to himself, "You are still a young man. You are so clumsy when doing things. Why didn't he inform me in advance if he had something to do, but resorted to this sudden attack? Doesn't he know that the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee is not a joke? He wondered if he had given a heads-up to Mayor Liu Wenhua before, so he turned his puzzled look to Liu Wenhua.

Liu Wenhua originally thought that Feng Sizhe had made arrangements with Secretary Xiang Kang to hold this Standing Committee meeting. Before the meeting, Secretary Xiang announced that the main content of the meeting did not include the salary of employees in the development zone, so he began to wonder. Now, when he saw Xiang Kang looking at him, he knew that today's meeting was not held for Feng Sizhe at all, but that this guy was just lucky.

In this way, Liu Wenhua had a clue in his mind. He thought, what kind of tricks can you, a deputy mayor who is a member of the Standing Committee, come up with? You have any ideas, but you don't tell me, the mayor, or the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. Do you still want your resolution to pass the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee? Thinking that Feng Sizhe didn't seem to take him seriously after coming to the municipal government, he wanted to punish him, so he shook his head at Xiang Kang, indicating that he didn't know what was going on.

Seeing Liu Wenhua also shaking his head, Xiang Kang felt a little unhappy. This Feng Sizhe was too disrespectful and had no rules. But no matter what, since he said he had something to say, Xiang Kang couldn't just refute him immediately, so he had to say in a reminder tone, "Oh, Mayor Feng, do you have any other questions? How about this, if it's not something very important, I think we shouldn't delay everyone's work. You can talk to Mayor Liu or me privately, what do you think?"

Having said this, he was actually pointing a finger at Feng Sizhe, telling him that as long as his matter was not particularly important, he should not bring it up at the meeting, so as not to waste everyone's time.

Although Feng Sizhe understood what Xiang Kang meant, how could he not seize this opportunity? This was an opportunity created by Lou Xiaoming and Xi Guoqi together, and he couldn't just waste it. "Secretary Xiang, I think what I'm going to say is very important. I think I'll take up a few minutes of your and everyone's time."

Feng Sizhe did not back down, which made Xiang Kang angry and he also wanted to hear what he had to say, because he really couldn't think of what important things Feng Sizhe, who had only been in Haibei City for two days, could have said. If what he was going to say was not important, then he would take this opportunity to talk to him about organizational principles. "Well, well, since you made it sound so important, why not tell it to the comrades?"

Xiang Kang nodded in agreement, and Feng Sizhe straightened his body, then told all the members of the Municipal Party Committee about the Haitian Economic Development Zone's half-year wage arrears for workers. "Comrades, nearly a thousand people, how many families, and how many people's lives are affected? The New Year is coming soon, if so many people have no money to buy rice and noodles to celebrate the Spring Festival, you can imagine what kind of social instability it will be, so I think..."

Before Feng Sizhe finished speaking, the executive vice mayor Song Dexiang suddenly interrupted him. "What? Is this the important thing Comrade Feng Sizhe mentioned? If so, I think you should report to the leader separately later. You know, this is the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee. Everyone present is very busy and has a lot of things to do. Is it right for you to talk about things within your work scope in such an environment?"

"Why is it wrong? Isn't this a party meeting? Isn't the purpose of party meetings to solve difficulties? Then the Haitian Development Zone is not a part of Haibei City, so isn't solving this matter our job?" Facing Song Dexiang's questioning, Feng Sizhe refuted with arguments.

"Yes, what you said is correct, but I have already told the secretary that if it is an important matter, we can discuss it in front of everyone. But in comparison, I don't feel that the matter of withholding employees' wages for half a year is that important. Think about it, the wages have been withheld for half a year, and nothing has happened, right? This shows that the matter is not very important, right?" Song Dexiang began to fight back and question Feng Sizhe.

"Haha." Hearing Song Dexiang actually talking about the nature of the matter like this, Feng Sizhe shook his head and sneered, "Why? Does it mean that it will not happen again just because it has not happened? What does the country want us party members to do? It is not only to solve problems, but also to prevent problems from happening. If our responsibility is only to do some things to remedy the situation after it happens, then what is the use of us? I think our municipal party committee and government can also change its name. Why not call it the Haibei City Emergency Response Team."

"Enough, Comrade Feng Sizhe, where is this place? This is the highest authority in Haibei City, at the Haibei Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee meeting. How can you act like a child? What is an emergency team? What is your attitude?" Upon hearing Feng Sizhe talk about the matter so seriously, Mayor Liu Wenhua became unhappy and immediately joined the camp opposing Feng Sizhe.

As soon as Liu Wenhua made his move, Xi Guoqi also became anxious. "Oh, I think what Comrade Feng Sizhe said makes sense. Take our army for example. When there is no war, we will still train and prepare for war. Is this wrong? Then according to what you said, can we disband the country's army now and reorganize it when a war breaks out? In that way, the country can save a lot of money a year, but have you thought about the consequences of this?"

"This is totally different." Liu Wenhua blushed when he heard Xi Guoqi say this, but he quickly reacted. "How can the Haitian Development Zone be compared with the army? This is just a small development zone, an economic project in Haibei City. Now the facts have proved that this development zone has failed. Even our municipal government is considering transferring the original employees here to other units. So, do you think it is necessary to continue to increase investment in such a unit?"

Liu Wenhua suddenly said this, which made Feng Sizhe stunned. Well, the development zone that was about to be disbanded was now handed over to him. What did the leader mean? This was clearly to give him a mess and find someone to clean up the mess. Unfortunately, Feng Sizhe became the person who cleaned up the mess, or the person responsible. When he thought of this, he felt so unfair in his heart that he immediately said, "Since the municipal government has already made this intention, I don't know why they still handed this matter to me. What do you mean by this?"

Liu Wenhua just said this to shut Xi Guoqi up. Although the Haitian Economic Development Zone has indeed become a burden to the municipal government, it is not going to be disbanded, at least the municipal government has no intention of doing so. Liu Wenhua never expected Feng Sizhe to react so quickly, and he used his words to attack him in an instant.

But the mayor is the mayor. After so many years of working in officialdom, Liu Wenhua still has certain experience in handling emergencies. He is completely unlike his deputy Song Dexiang. Now Song Dexiang basically can't get a word in, or it can be said that his thinking and language are a little out of date.

"Well, the city only has this intention, and has not issued a formal document. Besides, I heard that Comrade Feng Sizhe is very good at managing the economy, so we want to see if you can revive this business. That's why we entrust you with such an important task. Of course, we can't put all the opportunities on certain people, so we should make other preparations. Of course, if Comrade Feng Sizhe feels that you can no longer shoulder this burden, you can hand over this business. It's all right. I believe no one will blame you, right?" Liu Wenhua threw some words that were similar to provocation to Feng Sizhe. He wanted to see how Feng Sizhe would answer next.

If Feng Sizhe doesn't want to do it now, it proves that his level is just average. If he wants to do it, he has to say it carefully in front of everyone and do it well, otherwise he will be embarrassed.

Feng Sizhe had not expected Liu Wenhua to be so powerful. He immediately forced him to make a choice between two options, forcing him to either advance or retreat. He had to issue a military order. Thinking that he was planning to issue a military order, although Liu Wenhua was forcing him, he was actually fulfilling his wish. His eyes became more determined and sharper. "Well, since Mayor Liu said so, I will report my plan for the Haitian Economic Development Zone to everyone."

"Haitian Economic Development Zone has an area of ​​more than 742 square kilometers. It is located at the junction of Chenghai District, Chengdong District and Chengbei District, facing the sea to the west. It was built in early 237. There are currently 979 regular employees, contract workers, and a total of employees. Since its construction, it has negotiated more than businesses and built more than high-rise buildings. Among them, the Haitian Harbor has been formed and can already carry transportation to coastal cities across the country..."
