Chapter 2392 He Wants to Replace You

The situation in Shazhou is different from that in other places. The municipal party secretaries in other places basically hold all power in their hands, including not only personnel power, but also more or less extend their hands to the financial power of the municipal government. This is also the reason why the relationship between most secretaries and mayors is relatively tense.

But this is not the case in Shazhou. Jiang Longjun has been in Shazhou for so many years, and apart from strictly controlling the personnel power, he almost never interferes with or inquires about the financial power and the decision-making of the municipal government on some issues.

Others don’t know the reason, but Qin Feng understands that, after all, the key reason why Jiang Longjun does not interfere with the specific administration and financial power of the municipal government is that Jiang Longjun does not want to have any direct contact with the Lixin Group.

As an enterprise, Lixin Group has too many connections with the municipal government, but has no business connections with the Municipal Party Committee.

Therefore, over the years, Jiang Longjun has been firmly controlling the personnel power in Shazhou. This is also the basis for ensuring his influence in Shazhou, and he does not allow anyone to interfere in this regard.

This is also the reason why, although Shao Hongli is very powerful in the municipal government and well-known in the entire Shazhou political arena, he does not have much say in personnel matters.

Of course, Jiang Longjun generally did not interfere too much in the personnel affairs of the municipal government before, and basically followed Shao Hongli's suggestions. But this time, he suddenly replaced people in two key positions of Shao Hongli without even saying hello to Shao Hongli. This made Shao Hongli very surprised and very angry.

After receiving the news, Shao Hongli was furious and called Jiang Longjun's office to ask to see Jiang Longjun.

The person who answered the phone was Jiang Longjun's secretary, who told Shao Hongli that Jiang Longjun was now talking to the provincial party committee leaders.

Shao Hongli asked to wait and see Jiang Longjun. Half an hour later, Jiang Longjun's secretary replied to Shao Hongli, saying that Jiang Longjun was not free today and asked Shao Hongli to arrange it next time if he had no important work to report.

Shao Hongli, as a member of the municipal party committee standing committee, asked to meet Jiang Longjun. Under normal circumstances, Jiang Longjun would not have refused. Moreover, Jiang Longjun's status as a member of the municipal party committee standing committee was far more valuable than that of an ordinary member of the municipal party committee standing committee. In terms of real influence in Shazhou, Shao Hongli could actually be regarded as the second in command.

So it was very strange that Jiang Longjun did not meet Shao Hongli this time.

Shao Hongli is not stupid. On the one hand, the Municipal Party Committee, contrary to its usual practice, replaced the two most important positions in his hands without even telling him, and then Jiang Longjun, contrary to his usual practice, refused to see him. The answer is very obvious.

After being rejected by Jiang Longjun, Shao Hongli was so angry that he smashed the ashtray in the office.

Shortly afterwards, Shao Hongli drove to the Municipal Party Committee, but Shao Hongli did not go to Jiang Longjun's office, but to the office of Tang Zeyan, deputy secretary of the Municipal Party Committee.

Shao Hongli stayed in Tang Zeyan's office for a full hour before coming out, but his face still didn't look very good when he came out.

"Call Peng Zhen and ask him to wait for me in my office." Shao Hongli said to his secretary after getting in the car.

When Shao Hongli returned to the office, Peng Zhen was already standing at the door waiting for him.

Peng Zhen felt a little worried when he saw Shao Hongli with a gloomy face.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?" Peng Zhen followed Shao Hongli into Shao Hongli's office.

"Haven't you heard any news recently?" Shao Hongli asked.

"News? What news? What do you mean?" Peng Zhen was a little confused.

"Have you offended Qin Feng?" Shao Hongli asked again.

Peng Zhen was stunned, thinking to himself, isn't Shao Hongli asking knowingly? Doesn't Shao Hongli know whether he has offended Qin Feng or not? From the beginning, he didn't take Qin Feng, the mayor, seriously. Aren't many of the things he did to Qin Feng arranged by Shao Hongli?

"No, I have always done what you told me to do." Although Peng Zhen didn't know what had happened, he guessed that it was definitely not a good thing, and it was probably related to him.

"Qin Feng wants to transfer you away." Shao Hongli lit a cigarette.

"What?" Peng Zhen stood up from his chair in surprise, but then sat down again slowly: "Where does he want to transfer me to?"

Peng Zhen said this with a mocking smile, and then said with disdain: "It is certain that he wants to transfer me away, but the key is whether he has the ability to do so."

Peng Zhen didn't take this matter seriously at all. He thought Shao Hongli was joking about this, so he sat down and lit a cigarette.

"He doesn't have the ability. The key is that Jiang Longjun agreed." Shao Hongli was speechless when he saw Peng Zhen's nonchalant look.

"What? Jiang Longjun agreed? He...how could he agree to this? How could he get involved in this matter?" Peng Zhen's eyes widened.

"Not only did he agree, but they have already held a secretary's meeting and a five-member group meeting on this matter, and it has been approved. The next step is to submit it to the Standing Committee and vote on it directly." Shao Hongli added.

Peng Zhen, who had looked relaxed before, could no longer remain calm. He stood up from his chair in surprise for the second time and looked at Shao Hongli with horror.

"How could this happen? This is impossible. Jiang Longjun knows the relationship between me and Mr. Yang. How dare he attack me? He has always avoided anything related to the New Group, and will never do anything that is detrimental to Mr. Yang..."

"Moreover, Jiang Longjun never interferes in the affairs of our municipal government. Even if there is something, he will inform you first... Secretary Hongli, do you agree to transfer me?" Peng Zhen stared at Shao Hongli and asked.

"Are you mentally ill? What? Do you think I want to transfer you away? Am I plotting against you behind your back?" Shao Hongli was furious.

"That's not what I meant, but why did Jiang Longjun suddenly do this?" Peng Zhen asked.

"Who should I ask if you ask me? I am still confused. I don't know anything about this. Just like you said, Jiang Longjun would always inform me in advance of all matters related to the municipal government and ask for my opinion. He also basically followed my opinion. What's more, this is an important personnel adjustment."

"But Jiang Longjun didn't inform me this time, so I didn't know anything about it until the Municipal Party Committee held a five-member group meeting today and I found out about it." Shao Hongli smoked his cigarette in big puffs.

"After I got the news, I called Jiang Longjun, but he didn't answer. His secretary did. I said I needed to go over to report on my work, but his secretary said he was busy."

"I have no choice but to go find Tang Zeyan." Shao Hongli told Peng Zhen the whole process.

"What did Secretary Tang say? Is there any time left for this matter?"
