Rebirth of Minister Qi

In addition to Qi Tongwei, because Qi Tongwei is more sensitive to the wind direction from above, has a better relationship with the leaders, has more information channels, and is still relatively young, he is more motivated to do things.

But if the city's top leader said so, it means that this inspection is really important, because if a provincial party committee member panics, it will fall on the heads of the department-level cadres in the districts and counties below, which may lead to the loss of their official hats.

Being able to tell whether the leaders are serious is a major livelihood skill for grassroots cadres, because there are so many troubles every year, and the leaders sound very serious about everything, but whether they are serious or not sometimes depends on the situation.

Qi Tongwei was very annoyed. The situation was obviously good and the economy was developing rapidly, so why did this leader come and pour cold water on him? He silently counted the key projects in the new district in the second half of the year, and felt unwilling to accept which one was suspended or had problems. Not to mention other things, these were all the hard work he had planned, and no one likes to have his hard work denied.

Although he wanted to convince himself that it didn't matter, but as the provincial governor, Li Jihua would not shoot without a purpose. He called him specifically, so it must be about Jiangbei New Area or High-tech Zone.

After a round of emphasis from the leaders, the boring meeting ended, which only increased Qi Tongwei's inner worries.

His worries soon came true and the inspection team arrived at the agreed time.

Two buses came down from the newly built highway exit in Jiangbei New District. This is one of the three highways completed last year. The other two highways are of higher specifications and naturally took longer to build.

As for why we have to exit here, it is because Lin'an is located in the northwest of Dong'ou City, and Jiangbei New District is the northern district of the city. It is a must-pass road and will definitely pass by here. Getting off here is naturally the request of the leader, who wants to take a close look at the situation here.

So Qi Tongwei also stood in the line, crossed his hands in front of his abdomen, and looked at the highway exit curiously, while checking his Jiangzhou watch to confirm what time he would arrive, which also showed that he was not calm about this big test.

Lu Qiang trotted over from behind and told Qi Tongwei the news he had received.

"The convoy should have passed the service station. It's only two kilometers away."

That means the convoy will be visible in less than three minutes.

In the welcoming team, the municipal party secretary Chen Guangwei and the mayor Gao Yuliang stood in the front row, whispering. Their expressions could not be seen clearly. Qi Tongwei consciously stood at the back. In the middle were the deputies of the municipal party committee and government.

The convoy drove down and stopped in front of the crowd.

Qi Tongwei guessed that, given the character of this provincial party committee leader, he probably wanted to drive directly to the destination, but the municipal party committee secretary, who was also a member of the provincial party committee standing committee, was waiting at the highway exit. If he did not give him face, he would be criticized when he returned.

The group came down to meet and shake hands with the leaders. Qi Tongwei also took the opportunity to move closer to the front row. Sure enough, Gao Yuliang immediately remembered him and called him over.

"Secretary Zhao, these two are the secretary and mayor of our new district."

Qi Tongwei also observed Vice Governor Zhao from nearby. He looked a bit like a celebrity, a bit like Tang Guoqiang, with a decent face and sharp eyes, and he was always observing his surroundings.

"Two such young officers, let's start from the district where we got off the bus. Secretary Chen, Mayor Gao, let them be my tour guides.

How about you guys go get busy?"

Naturally, the two chief officers could not agree to such a request. The purpose of their coming here was to keep an eye on Vice Governor Zhao who was leading the team, otherwise the cadres below would not dare to refute what he said.

"How can this be possible, Secretary Zhao, since you are here in person, we must both explain it in person.

Not only the two of them, we are all here to serve the inspection team."

Unexpectedly, Vice Governor Zhao got angry on the spot and scolded Gao Yuliang who was speaking.

“What you said is totally wrong. You have so many people from your municipal party committee and government. Don’t you have your daily work to do? Why don’t you take care of the affairs of millions of people and come here specifically to serve our inspection team?

Work cannot be put upside down like this, all other people who are not in charge should return to their jobs, and the relevant departments should just leave a few people to contact them.

So many people are staying here, are they going to fight with us?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd fell silent. This leader really did not abide by the rules of officialdom. But at this point, Gao Yuliang could only look at Secretary Chen. After the latter nodded, he signaled the heads of other departments to go back to work.

The two chief officers had no intention of moving. After Vice Governor Zhao had said this, he had nothing more to say. He waved his hand and signaled to set off immediately.

"Let these two young and promising county party secretaries and county governor get in the car and lead the way."

No one corrected his address, and Jin Qi and the other man lowered their heads and got into the car obediently.

The two leaders of the municipal party committee got into their own cars and followed behind.

"Xiaobai, take a look at the key projects here."

Secretary Xiaobai immediately handed the prepared materials to Vice Governor Zhao, during which time the vice governor's eyes kept scanning Jin Qi and the others.

"You are really young. When I was your age, I was still working as a clerk in the army. I was only assigned to a company as an instructor when I was 30.

You two have become district and county chiefs before you are 30 years old, at the level of director."

Jin Xinkai on the side retorted softly.

"I am a member of the Municipal Party Committee, deputy department level."

"Great, great, Standing Committee Member Jin.

Then take me to have a closer look at the various key projects you are leading.

Let’s go to the Hi-Tech Zone first.”

The High-tech Zone is actually the place with the most key projects led by the city and the district. There are many supporting facilities, such as sewage treatment plants and several new buildings of the district government. There is also a large industrial zone under construction. This place is now a large construction site.

When the convoy drove to the High-tech Zone, it felt much smoother. The highway exit was actually quite congested with a lot of vehicles transporting goods up and down. In order to welcome the inspection team, the Municipal Transportation Bureau (a second-level bureau under the Public Security Bureau that has jurisdiction over several traffic police detachments) sent people to block half of the exits.

This made it inconvenient for other vehicles to get off the highway. Qi Tongwei had anticipated at the time that the leaders coming down from above would definitely feel uncomfortable seeing this scene, so for the sake of formalism, half of the highway entrances and exits for the masses were blocked.

After getting on the road to the High-tech Zone, the people in the car found that the car was driving very smoothly. Vice Governor Zhao opened the window curtains and saw the asphalt road outside, the greenery on both sides and the clean road surface.

He couldn't help but have a much better first impression of Jin Qi and the other man, because he had visited other districts and cities to see the road conditions, and they were all old and dilapidated.
