Rebirth of the Rising Sun

"Well, I have only one request, and that is that I hope Secretary Xiang must inform me when he makes a decision. Maybe I will write a report with you at that time." In order to fully grasp Xiang Kang's actions, Wei Zuosheng had to give such a reason.

"Okay, if we can jointly submit a report, then things will be perfect." Xiang Kang believed Wei Zuosheng's words and decided to notify this person before making a decision. After all, the combined power of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government is still very great.

The first person that Jia Zhengyi was about to persuade had his crisis resolved because of the timely appearance of Wei Zuosheng. After waiting until that evening, Xiang Kang still did not take any action, so Jia Zhengyi discussed what was going on with Mi Xueyong.

Mi Xueyong couldn't figure it out. According to his understanding of Xiang Kang, he should have taken action by now. Jia Zhengyi's words were so serious, so he would have taken some action, but why hasn't he done anything yet? With a hint of confusion, Mi Xueyong suggested, "I guess the last Liu Wenhua incident affected him. At that time, Feng Sizhe was held accountable by the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee, but he turned the tables on his own. After that incident, Secretary Xiang probably also considered it. I think it's better to do this. You continue to talk to other members of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee tomorrow to increase your influence, especially Zheng Geping, the head of the Municipal United Front Work Department. This person has a very good relationship with Secretary Xiang. As long as you can persuade this person, Secretary Xiang should take action next."

Following Mi Xueyong's suggestion, Jia Zhengyi came to the Municipal United Front Work Department early the next morning and started chatting with Zheng Geping.

Zheng Geping did not get any benefit from the last incident. Many people were promoted to a higher position, and even Xiang Kang arranged for a confidant to join the municipal standing committee and serve as deputy mayor, but he did not get any benefit at all, so he was a little dissatisfied with Feng Sizhe. This is not to say that Zheng Geping must get any benefit, but he felt that he seemed to be ignored by others, and this feeling made him very unhappy.

Today Jia Zhengyi found him and talked to him about Feng Sizhe's problem.

Just like he did yesterday, Jia Zhengyi conveyed the dissatisfaction of some central leaders with the situation in Haibei City, saying that the Haibei Municipal Committee was incompetent and had not done a good job in maintaining social stability, which had allowed an executive vice mayor to be in danger. This was truly the result of a failure to do a good job in all aspects.

Zheng Geping was very dissatisfied with this criticism. He thought that before Feng Sizhe came to Haibei City, although the economy of Haibei City was underdeveloped, the social stability was still good. This was due to his great efforts and hard work. Now that he was denied by just one sentence, he would certainly not be happy.

"Director Jia, this is not a very comprehensive statement. I personally think that Haibei City has done a good job in maintaining social stability, and Comrade Feng Sizhe's case is an individual case. It cannot be regarded as a sign that our work in Haibei City is not inadequate." Zheng Geping, somewhat dissatisfied, argued with Jia Zhengyi.

Hearing Zheng Geping using Feng Sizhe's case as an example, Jia Zhengyi was also happy. He felt that this was an opportunity, so he continued, "Really? Comrade Feng Sizhe's case is an example. Could it be that Comrade Feng Sizhe himself has a problem, and he acted too rashly and did not consider the overall situation, which led to such consequences?"

"Of course that's the case." Zheng Geping admitted it directly without thinking too much.

"Oh, if that's the case, doesn't that mean Comrade Feng Sizhe is not suitable for working in Haibei City? If this is the opinion of all the cadres in Haibei City, I can convey it to the higher-ups." The more Jia Zhengyi spoke, the more he led the conversation in the direction he imagined.

"This is not to say that Comrade Feng Sizhe is not suitable for working in Haibei City. He has made contributions here after coming to Haibei City. It's just that his style of doing things may not be suitable for a city like ours that is home to ethnic minorities." Zheng Geping tactfully expressed the view that Feng Sizhe was indeed not suitable for working in Haibei City.

This means that the two of them have something in common, so Jia Zhengyi opened up and said that in fact, some leaders of the central government also meant this. Now that the whole country is in reform and opening up, and the economy is advancing rapidly, social stability work is naturally the top priority and the foundation of economic development. There are many cadres who understand the economy throughout the country. It is not that they will not be able to play without a certain person, but no matter how strong their personal ability is, it cannot be the reason for him to disrupt the social order, especially the situation in Haibei City is special. Therefore, for the sake of Haibei City, cadres like Feng Sizhe should not stay here. If he can leave, it can also make Haibei City no longer the focus, which is also beneficial to the entire Haibei Municipal Party Committee. Therefore, for this goal, the Haibei Municipal Party Committee also needs to do something, such as writing a report to request the transfer of Comrade Feng Sizhe. Of course, the reason can be said to be to better protect Comrade Feng Sizhe's safety.

Jia Zhengyi had said all this. If Zheng Geping still didn't understand what was going on, then he had been working as a member of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal United Front Work Department Director for so many years in vain. He understood what Jia Zhengyi meant. To put it bluntly, he was the one who reported Feng Sizhe, and he was just doing other things under the guise of investigating this matter.

He thought that if Feng Sizhe left Haibei City, it might be a good thing, at least it would prevent Haibei City from becoming the focus and prevent the cadres here from being in panic. So he nodded and said that he would convey this idea to Secretary Kang of the Municipal Party Committee, but he could not give a specific result now.

Jia Zhengyi was very happy that Zheng Geping could say this. He immediately patted him on the shoulder and said, "Haibei City will need people like him to lead it in the future."

This one sentence fully proved Zheng Geping's irreplaceable and unshakable position in Haibei City, which made him very happy, and he wanted to fulfill Jia Zhengyi's request even more.

After talking with Zheng Geping, Jia Zhengyi also made a special trip to the Municipal Military Sub-district. He did this to put pressure on Xi Guoqi and asked him to hand over those members of the Hai Gang. This was also one of the topics that Mi Xueyong was most concerned about.

Xi Guoqi could ignore Mi Xueyong's request, but he couldn't do that to Jia Zhengyi. Because in a sense, he represented the Ministry of Public Security. If it were in the past, he would be an imperial envoy. So, according to what he had discussed with Feng Sizhe before, he still gave Jia Zhengyi a favor and released the people. However, he only released most of the Hai Gang members and handed them over to the police station, while the Hai Gang bosses Da Heizi and Hai Gui were kept.

Mi Xueyong was looking for Hai Heizi among the Hai Gang disciples in the Municipal Bureau with great joy, but he couldn't find him. When he asked, he found out that the military sub-district had not released him at all. He became a little angry and hurriedly reported the situation to Jia Zhengyi.

Jia Zhengyi was also very angry about Xi Guoqi's trick. He thought he was fooled by the other party, so he drove to the Municipal Military Sub-district again to find Xi Guoqi to ask for an explanation. However, this time he came back empty-handed. People in the army said that Commander Xi had just received a notice from the Provincial Military District and had gone to a meeting, and was not here now.

It is obvious that he is avoiding him. Well, even if Xi Guoqi runs away, the monk can't escape the temple. Jia Zhengyi doesn't believe that he will not come back, so he sent people from the investigation team to keep an eye on him, waiting for Xi Guoqi to come back and notify him immediately.

Just as Jia Zhengyi continued to attack, something very beneficial to his work happened in Haibei City. That is, the families of Hai Gang members suddenly came to the Municipal Bureau to make trouble. These women said that they could not live without a man at home, and they kept shouting for the Haibei City Public Security Bureau to release them.

This move was planned by someone behind the scenes, and the person who planned it was Hai Ren, another leader of the Hai Gang who had been on the run.

After Hairen met up with Xu Liang and Tian Xiong Daguang, they kept thinking about how to put pressure on the Haibei Municipal Party Committee and how to cooperate with the comrades from the investigation team of the Ministry of Public Security to put pressure on Feng Sizhe. Finally, they came up with a solution. Isn't the biggest concern of Haibei City social stability? Well, the more you worry about something, the more I will do something to make you uncomfortable, so this happened.

Hundreds of women blocked the door of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, shouting for their families to be released. This immediately attracted more people to watch. After receiving the report, Mi Xueyong, the Secretary of the Municipal Political and Legal Committee and the Director of the Public Security Bureau, immediately reported the situation to Xiang Kang, the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee.

Xiang Kang was with Zheng Geping at the moment, listening to him telling him what Jia Zhengyi had said.

It was after listening to Wei Zuosheng's words that Xiang Kang did not say anything to Feng Sizhe and did not think about reporting anything to the provincial party committee. However, when Zheng Geping came, his attitude immediately wavered. Just as he was thinking about whether to do as he said, Mi Xueyong called. When he heard that nearly a hundred women had blocked the door of the Municipal Public Security Bureau and were very emotional and ready to attack the Municipal Bureau at any time, he panicked.

"Secretary Mi, you must control the emotions of these women no matter what. Tell them that the Municipal Party Committee is holding a meeting to discuss this matter and will definitely give them an explanation." Xiang Kang said into the phone.

"Secretary Xiang, you are aware of the situation. Besides, the women who live by the sea are the most difficult to deal with. They will often haggle with you over a few cents less for a pound of fish. Not to mention that their men have been arrested this time. They must be very excited. I'm afraid I can't persuade them." Mi Xueyong complained to Xiang Kang. In fact, he could deal with these women, but he wouldn't do that. He just wanted to report the matter to the Municipal Party Committee and put pressure on Xiang Kang. He couldn't find such an opportunity, so how could he do the persuasion work?
