On the rostrum, Liao Donghua, deputy director of the Provincial Government Supervision Office, who was seated in the first row of the rostrum with Ge Jianming, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Chen Xing, Acting Mayor, and others, to be precise, from the moment Chang Baishan, deputy director of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, announced the appointment, Liao Donghua was a member of the Standing Committee of the Nanzhou Municipal Party Committee and Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee.

Liao Donghua is clearly aware of one point, although he is the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee is a member of the Standing Committee, but now he is the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee and has not concurrently served as the director of the Public Security Bureau as usual, if the people below do not listen to his greetings, then his Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee is likely to be a bare-bones commander, from the deputy director of the Provincial Government Supervision Office to the Standing Committee of the Nanzhou Municipal Party Committee and the Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, this is a key step taken by Liao Donghua on the way, and Liao Donghua himself knows that he can break through from several strong competitors. Thanks to the full support of Zhao Zhongyong, assistant to the governor and secretary general of the provincial government.

The Provincial Government Supervision Office is only an institution within the General Office of the Provincial Government, originally called the Supervision Office, and later in order to strengthen the functions of the Supervision Office, the Provincial Supervision Office was set up to set up the Supervision Office, but it is still the leadership of the General Office, but the level has been raised accordingly, the current Director of the Supervision Office Wang Tao is also the deputy director of the General Office of the Provincial Government, the deputy department level, and Liao Donghua, the deputy director is at the department level, this time, Liao Donghua is very clear that his boss Wang Tao is also eyeing the post of secretary of the Nanzhou Municipal Legal Committee, and has been active up and down. I hope to be able to transfer to Nanzhou City after Lu Defang retires, for Wang Tao, this is a flat adjustment, but the meaning is completely different, transferred to Nanzhou, served as the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee and became a member of the Standing Committee, this is undoubtedly not comparable to serving as the director of the supervision office, and will be more promising in politics in the future.

If it weren't for the fact that Lu Defang retired a few months ahead of schedule because of complex struggle factors, the news did not have Liao Donghua's well-informed Wang Tao who failed to have time to move and lost the opportunity, otherwise it is really hard to say who will die, in addition to Wang Tao, there are still many people who take a fancy to the position of this substantive deputy department, Liao Donghua is completely promoted this time, and he was stunned to snatch the idea of snatching his boss Wang Tao halfway, which has to be said to be a miracle.

Unknowingly, I thought that Liao Donghua was lucky, but when it comes to the appointment of this kind of substantive deputy department, how can it be that luck can bring about it, in fact, Liao Donghua and Zhao Zhongyong, the secretary general of the provincial government, have an unknown relationship, Liao Donghua is Zhao Zhongyong's brother-in-law, this relationship may not be a secret in the provincial government, but below, it is little known.

As the provincial government's housekeeper Zhao Zhongyong is undoubtedly a big celebrity in front of the governor Shun Baolai, this time, Zhao Zhongyong also responded to that sentence, and did not avoid relatives, and tried his best to recommend Liao Donghua in front of Shun Baolai, which led to Liao Donghua's exceptional promotion, but Liao Donghua could not concurrently serve as the director of the public security bureau, because this time there was another big man from the local faction, Wang Qinghai, director of the Provincial People's Congress, Wang Qinghai's request was that Zhang Qingyang was promoted to director, and Shun Baolai naturally gave way, for the position of a deputy hall, Shun Baolai is actually not eye-catching, if it weren't for Zhao Zhongyong's lobbying, Shun Baolai would not have interfered at all.

Nanzhou is the base camp of the local faction, as long as the post of secretary of the Nanzhou Municipal Legal Committee is still in the hands of the local faction, let whoever is going to be it, Shun Baolai doesn't care very much, even if it is to let Zhang Qingyang directly replace Lu Defang's position, it is not impossible, but because Zhao Zhongyong spoke, Shun Baolai did not refute the request of his confidant, and inserted a bar, two local bigwigs joined forces, and Fu Youjun, secretary of the provincial party committee, did not want to mix, and the position of a deputy hall was not worth him and Shun Baolai and Wang Qinghai. If the position of secretary of the municipal party committee is still vacant, then Fuyoujun will not give in lightly.

Shun Baolai and Wang Qinghai joined forces to firmly control the position of secretary of the political and legal committee, and then it was the issue of internal interest distribution, Liao Donghua served as the secretary of the political and legal committee and entered the Standing Committee, and Zhang Qingyang was promoted to the director of the municipal bureau, and the two sides were considered to have equal interests, which is also in line with the practice of internal balance of the local faction, one person eats meat, and the others must always have a soup to drink.

Liao Donghua doesn't know what the fuse of Lu Defang's early retirement is, and who played a key role in this, but Liao Donghua knows that it is not easy for him, the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, to establish prestige, Zhang Qingyang, who is also a local faction, will not necessarily buy his account, and his brother-in-law Zhao Zhongyong has high hopes for him, and this time he has made great efforts to support him, Liao Donghua knows that his next work will not be easy, he must make achievements, so that his brother-in-law Zhao Zhongyong believes in his ability, if he does not do well, Zhao Zhongyong will also lose face.

The meeting ended for more than half an hour, and Lu Defang, a former influential figure in the Nanzhou municipal legal system, officially retired, and Liao Donghua was replaced by Liao Donghua on the political stage of Nanzhou City.

After the meeting, Chen Xing, Shen Lingyue, Li Haocheng, Ren Gang, director of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee, Liao Donghua, the newly appointed secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, Zhang Qingyang, who was nominated as the director of the Municipal Bureau, and others sent Chang Baishan, deputy director of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, downstairs and sent Chang Baishan away.

Liao Donghua, the new secretary of the political and legal committee, undoubtedly came to visit the wharf, even if he and Ge Jianming belong to cadres in two camps, but he, the secretary of the political and legal committee, will definitely come to visit Ge Jianming, the secretary of the municipal party committee, at the beginning of his tenure, the political and legal committee is working under the leadership of the party committee at the same level, and it is reasonable for him, the leader of the political and legal committee, to visit Ge Jianming, the leader of the party committee.

"Comrade Donghua will be a member of our big family in the future, and we must work together, cooperate sincerely, and strive to build a beautiful home in Nanzhou City." Ge Jianming smiled and asked Liao Donghua to sit down, with a high-sounding rhetoric on his lips, Chen Xing, who had just sat down, also got up with a smile at this time, and nodded at Liao Donghua, Chen Xing could hear that Ge Jianming's words were also said to him, with a hint.

"I believe that under the leadership of Secretary Ge, Nanzhou City will get better and better and go to a higher level." Liao Donghua responded to Ge Jianming's words with a smile, and nodded at Chen Xing in return.

The three of them sat down separately, Ge Jianming glanced at Chen Xing with a smile, "Chen Xing, now that the German comrades have retired, this strike hard work cannot be left behind, you have to communicate more with Comrade Donghua, the strike hard work cannot be abandoned halfway, otherwise it will disappoint the people, I have recently read the news in the city, there are many reports on the strike hard action, and the Propaganda Department is cooperating with the propaganda of this positive work, which can not only make the people feel at ease, but also enhance the image of the party and the government." ”

"Secretary Ge instructed that I will discuss more with Comrade Donghua when I go back." Chen Xing smiled and nodded.

Liao Donghua on the side listened quietly, and when he heard the strike hard work, Liao Donghua's face suddenly became solemn, and he didn't show anything too much, but Liao Donghua was already vigilant in his heart, although the strike hard is good, but it is also easy to offend people, Lu Defang retired ahead of schedule this time, and it is not unrelated to the strike hard, before Liao Donghua came, he obviously also collected some information, Ge Jianming supported Chen Xing to carry out the strike hard work, and agreed that Chen Xing would personally take charge, Liao Donghua pondered in his heart that Ge Jianming was afraid that he did not have any good intentions, And Chen Xing is afraid that it is not so simple, both sides may have their own calculations, and Liao Donghua has to be cautious about this matter.

The three of them had their own thoughts about each other, Ge Jianming's eyes swept over Chen Xing and Liao Donghua from time to time, thinking about something in his heart, Chen Xing was indifferent, Liao Donghua was solemn and solemn, the three of them had different expressions, and everyone had their own abacus in their hearts.

Chen Xing first said goodbye and left Ge Jianming's office, Liao Donghua wanted to come to the pier, and there was a hypocritical conversation between him and Ge Jianming, Chen Xing stayed for a long time, and it was not interesting for Chen Xing to stay longer, wait a while, Chen Xing also got a trip to the airport.

Approaching four o'clock, Chen Xing came to the airport by car, at 4 o'clock there was a flight from Haicheng to Nanzhou City, Chen Xing just arrived at the airport, waited for a few minutes at the exit channel of the airport, Chen Xing saw a long-lost face, Lu Ming, who came out of the airport, saw Chen Xing, his face was faintly excited, and he walked out quickly.

"Mayor Chen, you also came to pick up the plane in person, doesn't it make me ashamed." Lu Ming walked in front of Chen Xing, and there were passengers coming out one after another, Lu Ming didn't dare to speak loudly to attract the attention of others, but he just looked at Chen Xing's expression and was extremely moved.

"Lu Ming, we can be regarded as old partners, you come to Nanzhou City to work, I can't say it if I don't come to pick you up." Chen Xing said with a smile and pointed to Lu Ming's slightly protruding beer belly, "It seems that when you become a leader, you will be blessed, and your belly will grow." ”

"There's no way, I'm getting fat while eating, and now I'm lazier than before, and I exercise less." Lu Ming smiled bitterly and patted his beer belly, since he became the deputy county magistrate and director of the Public Security Bureau, this entertainment is more and more, sometimes it is not good not to attend, the leaders of the provincial department and the municipal bureau come down to inspect and guide, and he has to accompany him in person.

"It's a good thing to be able to eat fat, and your heart is wide and your body is fat." Chen Xing smiled and joked, walked out with Lu Ming, and said, "Did the provincial department send someone to pick you up?" ”

"No, I didn't notify the provincial department when I came over today, and I will report it directly later." Lu Ming smiled and turned his head to look at Chen Xing, "Mayor Chen, I heard that I am not the only one who has come to Nanhai Province from the Haicheng Public Security System this time?" ”

"Then I don't know, I only care if you can come, I don't have the time to worry about other people." Chen Xing said with a smile, his brother-in-law Zhang Yi had done this for him, and Chen Xing didn't ask if there were other people coming, and even if there were, Zhang Yi might not know, because Lu Ming came as an exchange cadre.

The cadre exchange between the two provinces is a whole batch, not only Lu Ming, Zhang Yi may just ask someone to say hello, ask Lu Ming to be added to the cadre exchange list, and roughly put forward specific requirements, others, Zhang Yi is estimated to not even bother to look at it.

I have to say that Chen Xing's luck is still very good, Zhang Yi called him and said that this time did not take a lot of effort, because this time is just in time, the Ministry of Public Security has been actively promoting the public security system in recent years leading cadres up and down exchanges and non-local exchanges, this is not only to implement the spirit of the central cadre exchanges, but also has a great role is to promote the healthy development of cadres and honest administration, which can help broaden the vision of cadres, increase cadres' talents, resist corruption and degeneration, and prevent the purpose of appointing people on the basis of merit. It was in this context that Lu Ming came to Nanzhou City, Nanhai Province to take up his post, because this time he was a unified exchange from the ministry, so Lu Ming's arrival would not attract the attention of others.

Chen Xing originally hoped that Lu Ming could be transferred to the Nanzhou Municipal Bureau, but because the Nanzhou Municipal Bureau did not have a suitable position, Lu Ming could only temporarily go to the provincial department to serve as the deputy chief of the provincial department criminal police corps.

"Originally, I hoped to help you get a position as the deputy director of the city bureau, and I would help you get promoted to a higher level after a while, but I didn't expect to be able to do so, so I could only temporarily wronged you first." Chen Xing smiled and patted Lu Ming's shoulder.

"What Mayor Chen said, except that it's a pity that I can't do things under Mayor Chen, I don't dare to think about it anymore." Lu Ming smiled and shook his head, what did he think in his heart, he naturally couldn't say it, in fact, when Lu Ming just knew that he was going to be exchanged to serve in other places, and he was only the deputy chief of the provincial criminal police corps, Lu Ming was so angry that he scolded his mother, not to mention that he was transferred to other places to serve in the field, and he didn't dare to hope that he could be promoted to the first level, but the exchange was at least a flat adjustment, and he had to be given a good position, the key was to serve as the deputy captain of the criminal police corps, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he was secretly demoted.

As long as he is a normal person, he will not choose the former between the two positions of deputy chief of the criminal police corps and deputy county magistrate and director of public security, if it weren't for Chen Xing's later phone call, Lu Ming almost said ruthlessly that he would not go out even if he was removed, of course, this is just a joke, the unified arrangement of the ministry, Lu Ming can't really disobey, unless he doesn't want to do it, but it can also be seen that Lu Ming is really dissatisfied with this exchange.

"Lu Ming, I see that you are not telling the truth, I don't believe that you have no thoughts in your heart, although you haven't seen each other for a long time, you can't hide any thoughts in your heart." Chen Xing said with a smile.

Lu Ming smiled wryly, Chen Xing said this, it would be boring for him to deliberately say no, and the two of them didn't have to see each other like this.

The two walked slowly outside the airport, Chen Xing intended to chat with Lu Ming more, and his pace slowed down, and when he got to the car, although he still trusted the driver Li Yong, after all, there were some things that were not easy to say.

"Lu Ming, don't call me Mayor Chen in the future, just call me by my name, we are old friends, there is no need to see each other so much." Chen Xing smiled again.

"This is not a success, our private friendship is friendship, but we can't mess with the rules, and besides, you are getting bigger and bigger now, let me call you by your name, then I am not sure." Lu Ming shook his head resolutely, as Chen Xing's position became higher and higher, he also felt that he couldn't call Chen Xing's name directly, and he didn't feel comfortable at all, so he still called Mayor Chen smoothly and felt comfortable.

Seeing Lu Ming's resolute attitude, Chen Xing no longer insisted, this is the helplessness of being in the system, after all, this is a place that pays attention to rank, sometimes, the official is getting bigger and bigger, and getting along with the friends around him, but it will become more and more divided, even if the relationship is still there, but your position is there, your level is there, your power is there, these are the places that cause estrangement, Lu Ming is in front of him, at least he will not be too angry, Chen Xing can be regarded as satisfied.

"After you get to the provincial hall, I will transfer you over, but there are many places that need your help." Chen Xing stood in a place where no one was around, and said cautiously to Lu Ming.

"If Mayor Chen has any instructions in the future, just say, I will fight wherever you point, and resolutely obey the order." Lu Ming became serious, it sounded like a joke, but his expression was very solemn, aside from his previous relationship with Chen Xing, Lu Ming also clearly knew that when he came to Nanzhou, a place where he was unfamiliar with life, he had to stand firmly on the same front as Chen Xing.

"Okay, I still have a lot of confidence in you, although I couldn't raise the next level this time, but the stage is bigger, and I have a wider vision in the provincial hall than in the county bureau, although I can't be the emperor of the soil in the county, but I can be exercised on a bigger stage, which is also good for future promotion." Chen Xing said with a smile.

"Mayor Chen, don't say that, if you can let me be promoted to another level, I don't dare to be it, if it wasn't for Mayor Chen's support, I don't want to be able to be the deputy county magistrate and public security director in my life, it will be crushed by Han Dong, I have been unwilling, I didn't think there was anything to do, I didn't expect it to come and go, thanks to Mayor Chen's support."

Lu Ming smiled, the first sentence is still a bit hypocritical, but the following words, Lu Ming is sincerely from the heart, he is sincerely grateful to Chen Xing, thinking about life is also interesting enough, the former old boss Han Dong once overwhelmed him, the deputy director, but now Han Dong has become a prisoner, and he is rising step by step, or how to say that in the past thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, feng shui has taken turns, no one should look down on anyone, no one will know if it will be themselves who will be downcast in the next moment.

"Lu Ming, do a good job, I also borrow an old saying to encourage you, the road is tortuous, and the future is bright." Chen Xing smiled, in fact, this is equivalent to his disguised commitment to Lu Ming, there are not many people who can make him promise, Lu Ming is undoubtedly one of them, for Lu Ming, he still values it very much, otherwise he would have thought of Lu Ming in the case of lack of manpower, the experience of the two of them has worked together makes Chen Xing very relieved about Lu Ming's personality.

"I don't care if the future is bright or not, I just believe that it is right to follow the pace of the leader at all times, and I must follow the leader unswervingly." Lu Ming said with a smile.

"I found out that you can also pat the leader's ass now, I remember that when you were in the county before, you didn't know how to say such nonsense." Chen Xing said with a smile, "But this is a good phenomenon, you can't mix in the officialdom, you can't pat the leader's ass, if it's hard like a piece of wood, you won't be welcomed, and the leader thinks you're putting on a score." ”

"Yes, after staying in the big dye vat of officialdom for so long, even a piece of wood has been enlightened, and I can be regarded as integrating into organizational life." Lu Ming sighed, over the years, he can also feel his changes, not the previous rampage, but more and more sleek, he doesn't know whether this change is gratifying or sad for him, only that he is getting more and more adapted to this officialdom.

The two stood for a while, then got into the car together, looked out the window, and looked at the scene of the rapidly backward landscape, Chen Xing smiled, "How about it, Nanzhou City is beautiful or Haicheng is beautiful." ”

Lu Ming heard Chen Xing's question, and was stunned for a moment, and only after a long time did he hold back a sentence, "I think Haicheng is still beautiful." ”

Chen Xing laughed when he heard this, but he didn't say anything, the smile on his face disappeared for a long time, for Chen Xing, his hometown will always be the most beautiful.

"Wait a minute, I'll send you to the provincial hall, you go to report first, and I'll invite you to dinner in the evening." Chen Xing said.

Lu Ming nodded, smiled and said okay, the carriage fell into silence for a while, Chen Xing didn't know what he was thinking, Lu Ming's eyes also looked out of the window from time to time, looking at this strange and vibrant city, Lu Ming rarely gave birth to a little bit of youthful energy, Lu Ming, who has been staying in Ximen County since the police, can be said to have never been transferred to other provinces in his life, and has been in Ximen for more than 20 years, and has been completely accustomed to being there to come to such a strange place, Although he is still doing criminal investigation work, after all, it is a new position and a new environment, which is a new challenge for Lu Ming, and he has to start from scratch.

Zhou Ke, president of the Municipal Court, Cheng Rongjiang, chief procurator of the Municipal Procuratorate, Zhang Qingyang, executive deputy director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and other major cadres of the political and legal system attended the meeting, and Lu Defang, former secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, also sat on the rostrum.

The Provincial Public Security Department is also on the political and legal road, on this political and legal road, Nanhai Province, including Nanzhou City, there are many provincial-level and municipal-level political and legal institutions on this road, to go to the provincial department, you have to pass through the office building of the Municipal Legal Committee, after passing the Municipal Legal Committee, Chen Xing pointed to the office building of the Political and Legal Committee and said to Lu Ming, "The new Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee has just taken office today. ”

"Oh." Lu Ming looked at the political and legal committee building outside the window in the direction Chen Xing pointed, he didn't realize that he would also intersect with this place in the future, and he would become the owner of this political and legal building.

sent Lu Ming to the gate of the provincial hall, and Chen Xing returned to the city government.

Municipal Legal Committee, after the meeting, Liao Donghua and Lv Defang chatted in the office for a while, Liao Donghua respected Lv Defang's predecessor very much, and smiled so that Lv Defang would have more time to go to the Political and Legal Committee building in the future, guide and guide the work, so that everyone can learn more, for Liao Donghua's impeccable attitude, Lv Defang also smiled and nodded in response, people go to tea and cool, Lu Defang, who has been up and down in the sea for decades, understands this truth better than anyone else, even if Liao Donghua is consistent on the outside and not hypocritical on the surface, It is impossible for Lu Defang to really come over, and he must always be self-aware.

There was a knock at the door, and Liao Donghua shouted in, he had just taken office and had not yet been equipped with a secretary. It was Zhang Qingyang, executive deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, who came in, Zhang Qingyang had long known that Lu Defang was inside, and his psychological side had already been prepared, but his face was just the right amount of surprise, "Ah, the old secretary is also there." ”

"Comrade Donghua, I'll leave first, so I won't bother you." Lu Defang got up with a smile, did not get up, but left the office directly, Zhang Qingyang's face was a little stiff in an instant, although it was very bitter and returned to normal, this scene fell into Liao Donghua's eyes.

"Come, Comrade Qingyang, please take a seat." Liao Donghua stood up quietly and asked Zhang Qingyang to sit down very enthusiastically.

Zhang Qingyang was not polite, he sat down directly, now he can be described as high-spirited, unconsciously, the mentality is not the same, in the face of Liao Donghua, Zhang Qingyang will not say that he is arrogant, but Zhang Qingyang does not feel that he is shorter than Liao Donghua in his heart, although Liao Donghua is a real deputy hall, there is a relationship in the province, but Zhang Qingyang is also very close to Li Haocheng, Li Haocheng also has a background in the province, Zhang Qingyang is not very afraid of Liao Donghua.

"Secretary Liao, I have a case here to report to you." Zhang Qingyang smiled and said the case of the Crown Entertainment City, "This case was previously instructed by Secretary Lu to He Yijun of the first team of the criminal police, and now that Secretary Lu has retired, I think it is more appropriate to hand over the case to the three major teams to be responsible, because the first team is responsible for solving the case, the case of the Crown Entertainment City is not a big case after all, and it is not appropriate to be distracted to handle the case of the Crown Entertainment City, I have come to ask Secretary Liao for instructions." ”

"Comrade Qingyang, didn't you deliberately give me a problem." Liao Donghua glanced at Zhang Qingyang with a smile, "I just came over, I am not familiar with the work, my eyes are black, I see, this case, you can make your own ideas, you are familiar with the work of the Municipal Bureau, you can do what you think is good." ”

"Okay, with Secretary Liao's words, I'll do it with confidence." Zhang Qingyang smiled and nodded, a hint of pride flashed in his eyes.

"By the way, if I remember correctly, the case of the crown casino was investigated by this crackdown, Comrade Qingyang, Mayor Chen personally took charge to supervise this crackdown activity, and you have to report this case to Mayor Chen." Liao Donghua said.

The smile on Zhang Qingyang's face didn't disappear, it froze instantly, and quietly glanced at Liao Donghua, Zhang Qingyang was a little stupid in his heart, he originally wanted to dig a pit for Liao Donghua, and while Liao Donghua was not familiar with the situation, he pulled Liao Donghua into this matter, and created a conflict between him and Chen Xing when Liao Donghua was unconscious, and now it seems that this Liao Donghua is also very cunning, and he is not fooled at all.

"Of course, I will report to Mayor Chen when I go back." Zhang Qingyang nodded and said, he didn't give Liao Donghua a stick, Zhang Qingyang was really unwilling in his heart, but he couldn't say anything more, so as not to suspect Liao Donghua.

Liao Donghua sent Zhang Qingyang outside the office door this time, and sent Zhang Qingyang away with a smile, looking at Zhang Qingyang's back, Liao Donghua also had a sneer on the corner of his mouth.
