Chapter 2626 Demoted to Observer

Liu Bo took a deep breath and said, "I definitely want Jiangtou City to receive more investment, and I will also work hard to obtain better conditions for foreign investors."

Liu Fusheng said in a deep voice, "Everyone has seen what you did. You speak beautifully, but your actions are the opposite of what you say. If dealing with foreign businessmen is difficult for you, then you are not qualified to sit in the position of the top leader of Jiangtou City, and you will not be able to serve the millions of people in Jiangtou City."

These words were powerful and intimidating, and the entire conference room fell into silence.

Liu Bo felt a strong pressure. He didn't expect that Liu Fusheng didn't argue with him about right and wrong, nor did he fall into his logical trap. Instead, he directly used the crushing method to attack him.

Of course, Liu Fusheng's crushing was also based on reason, but this reason was of a higher level, which made Liu Bo's sophistry a joke.

"Liu Sheng, I think the specific work should be based on the actual situation."

Liu Bo still wanted to quibble.

Liu Fusheng shook his head and said, "Secretary Liu, I hope you can recognize your mistakes and sincerely reflect on them, rather than continue to explain. As you said, all reception procedures are recorded and videotaped. I don't have the mood to analyze your words word for word, because I have already seen your attitude and position in handling affairs."

Upon hearing this, Liu Bo was completely speechless, and beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

Sun Hai asked, "Comrade Liu Bo, why is he silent? Do you think what Liu Sheng said is wrong? If you have any opinions, you can speak directly. We are in a meeting to discuss, and we should speak freely. You have the facts, so there is no need to be restrained. For example, your criticism of the bureaucracy in some northern provinces just now was very sharp."

Liu Bo: “…”

He did have a lot more to say, but he knew very well what the consequences would be if he tried to hit a rock with an egg.

There is a gap in power between him and Liu Fusheng. Now that Tang Shaoying is not present, what can he use to compete with Liu Fusheng for the right to speak?

Even if Tang Shaoying was present, Liu Fusheng might not buy his words.

Li Wu, standing nearby, said with a serious expression, "I think that if Comrade Liu Bo still hasn't realized the seriousness of the problem, he should temporarily stop his work on receiving foreign businessmen for the sake of the overall situation."

"After all, the current focus of Jiangtou City is to receive foreign business delegations, implement investment promotion, and complete the tasks assigned by the province and the country."

"There is no room for negligence in this regard. I personally suggest that we help Comrade Liu Bo take on this burden first. I ask Liu Sheng and all comrades to carefully consider this matter."

Liu Bo was shocked. He was worried that Liu Fusheng would follow Li Wu's words and agree to take away his authority to handle investment promotion. Then he would be in a passive position.

Liu Bo laughed dryly and said, "I have heard the opinions of the provincial governor and the criticisms of everyone, and I agree with and accept everyone's ideas. I know that the leaders are considering the overall situation and that the comrades have good intentions. I have realized my mistakes and will work hard to correct them and make amends to attract investment."

Sun Hai and Li Wu frowned almost at the same time. They didn't expect that Liu Bo was so flexible and would admit defeat so easily.

Everyone looked at Liu Fusheng, waiting for him to speak.

Liu Fusheng said, "I believe in Comrade Liu Bo's awareness and ability. Since he has accepted everyone's criticism, we should also give him a certain amount of trust. However, time waits for no one. I still suggest that the important task of receiving the inspection team in Jiangtou City be temporarily handed over to Comrade Li Wu. Comrade Liu Bo will assist Comrade Li Wu."

"This……"

Liu Bo suddenly became anxious. Liu Fusheng gave him some face, but not much. He directly turned him, the top leader, into a supporting role. This made Liu Bo lose control of the specific work and also lost his face as the top leader.

Sun Hai said with a smile: "Comrade Liu Bo, do you have any objections to Liu Sheng's decision? To be honest, I have some opinions too. I think Comrade Liu Bo is not suitable for auxiliary work. He should be an observer. That would be more suitable for you."

The name of observer sounds nice, but in fact, it means to kick Liu Bo out of the reception team and turn him into a spectator.

Liu Bo angrily said, "Director Sun, I've already reviewed my mistakes and expressed my stance. It's inappropriate for you to be so sarcastic. Besides, not only you, but even Provincial Governor Liu can't kick me out of the reception team over such a small matter. The team's roster and positions were all appointed by Provincial Governor Tang. Did you ask for Provincial Governor Tang's opinion before you said that?"

He was forced to move out of his support system.

Sun Hai said calmly, "Don't be impatient. We are discussing the problem. We are competing to see who is more reasonable, not who can call for help."

"you……"

Liu Bo was about to argue a few more times when Liu Fusheng spoke up, "Comrade Sun Hai's suggestion makes sense. It's indeed more appropriate to let Comrade Liu Bo serve as an observer temporarily. He is the main person in charge of Jiangtou City and is very busy with his work. He doesn't have much energy to be responsible for receiving foreign businessmen."

"Liu Sheng, I have energy, you can't do this!"

Liu Bo was shocked and quickly retorted.

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "This is just a temporary decision. Next, I will go to Yangcheng to report to Tang Sheng and listen to his ideas... This is also what you mean, right?"

"I……"

Liu Bo regretted it so much that his intestines turned green. It was obvious that Liu Fusheng suddenly changed his attitude because of his question "Have you asked Tang Sheng's opinion?"

Since Liu Bo is taking advantage of the situation, Liu Fusheng will not tolerate him anymore. He will first kick Liu Bo out of the reception team, and then personally ask Tang Shaoying what he thinks. Regardless of whether Tang Shaoying agrees or not, in Chaojiang area, he still has to look at Liu Fusheng's mood.

Liu Fusheng said with a smile: "Okay, today's summary meeting will end here for now. I hope that comrades will continue to work hard and strive to attract foreign investors to the Chaojiang area as soon as possible."

He didn't give Liu Bo a chance to speak and directly finalized the meeting results.

Liu Bo's face was full of confusion. He watched most people leave the meeting room before he stood up tiredly.

"What the hell is going on?"

Wang Jian, who had been deliberately lingering and not leaving, walked up to him and said, "Secretary Liu, let's go too."

Liu Bo gritted his teeth and said, "Liu Fusheng is too domineering. He is abusing his power, acting arbitrarily, and has no respect for democracy and provincial leaders!"

Wang Jian sighed, "Secretary Liu, what's the point of saying this now? Let's quickly think about what to do next."

Liu Bo said angrily: "I won't admit defeat. I'm going to call Tang Sheng and sue Liu Fusheng."

Wang Jian smiled bitterly and said, "Provincial Governor Liu has already said that he will return to Yangcheng tomorrow to report to Provincial Governor Tang."
