Chapter 1711 Fighting for the Object
Zhao Qiuwei smiled and said, "I'm not worried. After all, I don't have any benefits."
Gu Hongcheng glared and said, "Old Zhao, why are you ruining my show?"
In fact, he and Chen Zixing both knew what kind of person Zhao Qiuwei was.
It can be said that Zhao Qiuwei is a person who implements the idea of "non-action" to the end. He does not fight or compete. As the secretary of the Jiyang Municipal Party Committee, he has never made any constructive decisions, nor will he accept any benefits or seek any personal gain.
With such a personality, he was able to hold on to the position of municipal party secretary, all because the Zhao family enjoyed a very high reputation in Jiyang City.
The Zhao clan is not as high-profile as Hongcun in Jiangtou City, but it has a deep network of relationships both at home and abroad.
On the one hand, these clans in the Chaojiang area compete with each other in terms of local influence, wealth, etc. On the other hand, they also compete to see how many important figures can come back during the annual ancestor worship.
There are many important figures in the Zhao family, whether they are wealthy overseas or high-ranking officials in certain provinces and cities in China, which are enough to shock other clans.
The scale of the Zhao family's annual ancestor worship is so grand and spectacular that no one can match it, at least in Jiyang City.
After hearing Gu Hongcheng's complaints, Zhao Qiuwei said with a smile: "Old Gu, Old Chen, don't pick on me. It's because my family used to ask the Taoist priest from the Tianshi Mansion to predict our fate."
"The Heavenly Master said that God favors the Zhao family. Whether our descendants are engaged in business or serving as officials, they will have a chance to succeed and even bring honor to the family. However, they should not be ostentatious or high-profile, especially for our direct descendant. Being high-profile will bring disaster."
"If everyone hadn't pushed me to the position of Jiyang Municipal Party Committee Secretary, I wouldn't even want to take this position."
Chen Zixing sneered, "What era is this? Why are you still practicing this kind of feudal superstition? The last Heavenly Master has fled to Taiwan, and the ancestral magic weapon has been lost. Who gave you your fate? You don't fight for what you should fight for. Are you going to wait for others to feed you?"
Zhao Qiuwei quickly waved his hands and said, "Old Chen, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. I'm afraid you'll be in big trouble for slandering the Heavenly Master like this."
Chen Zixing didn't care.
Seeing this, Gu Hongcheng changed the subject and said, "Only when you are the municipal party secretary can Jiyang City be stable. If it were any other clan, your family would definitely be suppressed. Your family surnamed Zhao is so large that you would definitely fight back if you were suppressed. That would be a big mess for Jiyang City."
Zhao Qiuwei smiled and said nothing.
Chen Zixing said, "Old Gu, don't go too far. Let's talk about Liu Fusheng. I think he can help us get through this difficult time. It won't hurt if we just bear with him for now."
Gu Hongcheng sighed and said, "Alright, judging from today's situation, Liu Fusheng is indeed a ruthless person. Since you all think that you can be patient, then I will endure it with you... I want to see what Liu Fusheng is capable of."
……
In the afternoon, Liu Fusheng sat in the office of the Secretary of the Chaojiang Municipal Party Committee.
Zhou Xiaozhe was standing next to him and reported to him in detail about the various situations of Li Wu, the Chief Prosecutor of Chaojiang City Procuratorate.
After listening to this, Liu Fusheng nodded and said, "Yes, Chief Prosecutor Li did not disappoint me. He can be a great help to us in the future."
Zhou Xiaozhe smiled and said, "Yes, the Li clan has a strong influence in Chaojiang. He is also a relative of the former secretary of the Political and Legal Committee of Fengliao Province. This makes him more trustworthy."
Li Wu and Li Hongliang are from the same clan. According to the family tree, he and Li Wenbo are of the same generation.
Over the years, Li Hongliang felt that Li Wu was a good kid. He was sensible, knew how to advance and retreat, was well-versed in human relations, and was suitable for a career in politics. So, when he learned that Liu Fusheng was going to be transferred to Chaojiang City, he called Li Wu.
On the phone, Li Wu did not promise Li Hongliang anything. He only said that he would do his best to help Liu Fusheng, and then see how capable Liu Fusheng is, and finally decide whether to assist him and make some achievements.
Through the speech, Li Wu had judged that Liu Fusheng did have some ideas, so he made some promises to Zhou Xiaozhe in the car.
This means that Liu Fusheng has driven a nail into the officialdom of Chaojiang City and found a point of fulcrum.
Liu Fusheng had expected Li Wu to cooperate. Besides him, Liu Fusheng had another target.
"Xiaozhe, what do you think of Secretary Zhao from Jiyang City?"
Zhou Xiaozhe said in surprise: "Secretary Liu, are you trying to recruit Secretary Zhao? Isn't this a bit difficult?"
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Zhao Qiuwei, Gu Hongcheng, and Chen Zixing are on the same front.
It was nothing but a pipe dream for Liu Fusheng to gain Zhao Qiuwei's support.
Liu Fusheng said with a smile: "When I went to southern Liaoning, I talked with Secretary Lao Li for a long time. He recommended many talents to me, including Zhao Qiuwei. If we can get Zhao Qiuwei's support, we can reduce a lot of resistance when we start our work in Chaojiang City."
Zhou Xiaozhe said cautiously: "The Zhao family is not ordinary. It will be very difficult to convince Secretary Zhao Qiuwei."
Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "If it wasn't difficult, would it still be our turn to come to Chaojiang?"
The situation in Chaojiang is very complicated. There are various clan forces inside, and there is also unrest outside. The Tang family's contact with overseas is very likely to go through Chaojiang as a transit station. Liu Fusheng hopes to open a gap here and break through the Tang family's perfect control over Guangdong Province.
In addition, in the text message Han Dawei sent to Bai Ruochu, he clearly mentioned that he found a message with suspected subtitles H in Chaojiang.
So, who is Subtitle H?
Liu Fusheng has too many problems to solve, he must go all out and be fully focused.
Li Hongliang provided Liu Fusheng with a list of people in the Chaojiang City officialdom who he believed were capable, valuable, and worthwhile to be considered for success. Zhao Qiuwei was one of them.
Through investigation, Liu Fusheng learned some information about Zhao Qiuwei, including that his family was very prestigious, with many officials and businessmen, and that Zhao Qiuwei had a personality that made him neither competitive nor aggressive and was very low-key.
In Zhao Qiuwei's eyes, the Zhao family is already flourishing. He believes that ensuring the safety and stability of the family is more important than seeking development, so he must be steady in doing things, even if he misses some opportunities, he must not make irreparable mistakes.
After Zhou Xiaozhe left, Liu Fusheng was thinking about how to get Zhao Qiuwei into his team.
After a long time, he opened the relevant files of the Jiangtou City arson case again.
Before leaving get off work, Liu Fusheng picked up the phone and told Zhou Xiaozhe, "Get ready, let's go to the guesthouse in Jiangtou City."
Zhou Xiaozhe said in surprise: "Secretary, today is your first day at work, and there will be a welcome dinner tonight."
Liu Fusheng said: "I am not interested in formalism. We are not here to treat people to a meal... Contact the head of the task force, Qin, and ask where they are working and what other plans they have for today."
