Chapter 1708 Governing the City

On the other side, in the car of Li Wu, the chief prosecutor of Chaojiang City Procuratorate.

Zhou Xiaozhe and Li Wu had a fairly pleasant chat.

Li Wu said, "Secretary Zhou, in our Chaojiang region, we believe in having many children and more blessings. Including the overseas population, there are tens of millions of people, which is equivalent to the size of some provinces in China."

"No matter where they are, Chaojiang people are very united. Two strangers can do their best to help each other just because they are from the same hometown. This is also due to the traditional culture of the Chaojiang area."

Zhou Xiaozhe smiled and said, "That's right. It is this spirit of selfless mutual assistance that has allowed Chaojiang people to gain a firm foothold overseas and achieve extremely brilliant achievements. At present, Chaojiang's wealthy people can be found in famous representative figures both at home and abroad. It is no exaggeration to say that Chaojiang's wealthy people are second to none in the entire Chinese community."

Li Wu smiled and said, "This is exactly why the country's top leaders designated Chaojiang as a special economic zone. Chaojiang people are good at making money and are very united, but what they like most is to make the money they want and pursue the career they want, rather than obeying the arrangements of others and being constrained by others."

"This means that their ideas may go against the country's ideas, so the situation here is indeed not optimistic."

Zhou Xiaozhe nodded and said, "One word from you is worth ten years of study... If I remember correctly, Chief Prosecutor Li should also be from a certain clan, right?"

Li Wu looked at Zhou Xiaozhe deeply and said, "Indeed, the Li family is one of the most prestigious families in East Guangdong Province. It has been in existence for more than a thousand years, and its descendants are spread all over the world... I think Secretary Liu wants to make a big splash in Chaojiang?"

Zhou Xiaozhe continued to nod.

Li Wu said earnestly: "Big families are very traditional and patriotic. We all have an obligation to contribute to the country and the nation. If some people do something wrong, it is their own business. If the conflict is directed at the traditional culture of Chaoshan, it may be a bit inappropriate."

What he said made sense, was straightforward, and even impolite. He was essentially teaching Liu Fusheng how to do things.

Zhou Xiaozhe thought for a moment and said, "Secretary Liu came to Chaojiang with the goal of bringing some changes to this city and this region."

Li Wu smiled and said, "Change what?"

Zhou Xiaozhe said: "Changing the people's thinking will change the fate of the region."

Thought and destiny.

This keyword made Li Wu fall into deep thought.

After a moment, Li Wu asked, "I heard that Secretary Liu had a very good personal relationship with Team Leader Han who died in the fire. I thought he went to Chaojiang to solve the case, but I didn't expect that he would do such a big thing."

Zhou Xiaozhe said: "Secretary Liu will also investigate the case of Han, the head of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, to the end. This is his responsibility and obligation, but solving the case does not conflict with governing Chaojiang."

"On the flight, Secretary Liu once cited the example of Han Yu, the governor of the Tang Dynasty, and said that he would follow Han Yu's example and use both firmness and flexibility to push Chaojiang to make corresponding changes so that it can truly deserve the name of a special economic zone."

Li Wu frowned, then laughed and said, "Secretary Liu actually compared himself to Han Wengong, what a bold man!"

Zhou Xiaozhe said: "Secretary Liu also asked me to express his apologies to Chief Prosecutor Li on his behalf. I took the liberty of getting in your car, which will definitely cause you some trouble."

This is true.

In front of Gu Hongcheng, Chen Zixing, Zhao Qiuwei, Hong Chengli and others, Liu Fusheng specifically asked Zhou Xiaozhe to sit in Li Wu's car. Anyone would have thought twice.

Hearing this, Li Wu shook his head and said, "Even if you don't take my car, I will still be in trouble. After all, Secretary Liu and I have some connections. These things cannot be hidden from those who are interested. Secretary Liu does not avoid suspicion, which allows me to deal with these things openly."

……

The convoy slowly stopped in the compound of the Chaojiang Municipal Party Committee.

Liu Fusheng said goodbye to Qin Guang, Sun Jing, Shen Qingqing and others.

Under Gu Hongcheng's arrangement, Liu Fusheng came to the small auditorium, where the Chaojiang Municipal Government held a welcome banquet for the newly appointed secretary of the municipal party committee.

However, the atmosphere of the banquet was a little weird.

After Qin Guang and other people from the Ministry of Public Security left, the people at the scene immediately became casual, as if they lacked basic respect for the municipal party secretary.

In particular, Gu Hongcheng and Chen Zixing reached an offensive and defensive alliance in the car.

After Liu Fusheng finished his brief speech, the polite applause stopped. Gu Hongcheng immediately said with a smile: "Secretary Liu, we know about your previous achievements. It is our honor to have you come to Chaojiang."

"In your speech just now, you also mentioned that Chaojiang City has a long history and great development potential. You are confident that you can lead Chaojiang to create a better tomorrow. However, the situation in Chaojiang City is different from that in Fuyuan City. In addition to listening to slogans, we hope that you can get some practical information and talk about specific ideas. How do you want to lead Chaojiang to a better life?"

"What are your specific ideas?" Liu Fusheng glanced at Gu Hongcheng with a smile.

He knew that Mayor Gu was quite hostile towards him and wanted to test his abilities.

Chaojiang and Fuyuan are indeed different. The regional advantages here are very obvious. After the reform and opening up, the economic development trend is very good, and it can even be compared with Pengcheng and Zhucheng.

Therefore, Liu Fusheng’s speech on getting rid of poverty and becoming rich and creating a better future could not possibly impress these local social representatives in Chaojiang.

For some developed cities, as long as managers don't mess around, the results will be impressive, because the economic foundation and business environment are there, and not making big mistakes will be a credit.

While Liu Fusheng was thinking, Hong Chengli, who was embarrassed by him at the airport, chimed in, "Secretary Liu, we Chaojiang people like pragmatic leaders and don't like to eat the cakes that others paint for us."

"If your purpose in coming here is to handle various files and improve public order, then being a police chief is enough. There is no need to be the municipal party secretary."

As soon as Hong Chengli finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter from many people in the auditorium.

Gu Hongcheng echoed his words, and the meaning was self-evident: they were targeting Liu Fusheng, the new leader.

Liu Fusheng looked at the complacent Gu Hongcheng, Chen Zixing, Hong Chengli and others, smiled and said: "Since Mayor Gu and all the comrades want to hear my detailed explanation, then I will give a brief explanation."

"Not long ago, a major vicious case occurred in Jiangtou City. I will start with this incident and talk about my ideas on city governance."

The words "vicious case" made everyone in the small auditorium shut their mouths.

Gu Hongcheng was not in a position to speak because of his status, but Hong Chengli sneered and said, "Oh? Secretary Liu, what do you think about this vicious case?"

Liu Fusheng said calmly: "Have you ever heard of the phrase, 'military orders are as heavy as mountains'?"

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what he meant.
