"Secretary Zhao hasn't answered , is my guess correct?"
Dirk Carter asked in return.
Fabian Vincent's face was stern.
After a pause, he said, "Let's say you got part of it right."
"Alright then, since Secretary Zhao doesn't want Cornell Morgan to be the head of the Economic Developnt District, and he has smoothly extricated himself, there is actually a roundabout strategy that can help Secretary Zhao get what he wants!"
"What thod?"
Fabian Vincent was montarily taken aback and asked.
Dirk Carter pointed to himself with his finger and said, "! I am the newly appointed Organization Minister of Koryn City, and the cadres of the Economic Developnt District are under the jurisdiction of Koryn City, which ans that the appointnts of other leaders in the Economic Developnt District have to go through . If the other leaders appointed in the Economic Developnt District align with Secretary Zhao's desires, then the power in the Economic Developnt District will not fall into other's hands."
"Haha, comrade Dirk Carter, don't forget, you are a cadre transferred from Serenity State, unfamiliar with the place, and the appointnts for cadres in the Economic Developnt District are not sothing an Organization Minister can decide. Do you really think that being the head of the Organization Ministry allows you to handle all cadre appointnts?"
"Indeed, I am unfamiliar with the place, but if others believe that I am Secretary Zhao's person, wouldn't it make things much more efficient?"
This blatant borrowing of power.
Fabian Vincent had never encountered it before.
So things can only be hinted at privately.
Yet Dirk Carter spoke frankly, which indeed sowhat surprised Fabian Vincent.
He stood up.
With hands behind his back, he paced and pondered for a long ti.
He asked, "What should I do?"
With those words, it was as if he had already agreed to Dirk Carter's proposal.
Dirk Carter smiled slightly and said, "It's simple, just have Secretary Zhao personally see take office..."
A little past eleven in the morning.
The No. 3 car of the Municipal Committee slowly drove out from the Municipal Committee Compound.
The car hadn't gone far.
The door to the office of Michael Hall, the Executive Deputy Minister of the Organization Departnt, was knocked on.
At this mont, Michael Hall was flirting with a female subordinate, and being interrupted suddenly, he was quite displeased.
He arranged his clothes and called out, "Co in."
The door opened, and his driver walked in with a panicked expression.
"You go out first."
Michael Hall gave the female subordinate a light pat on her bottom, and she tactfully left the room.
"What's the matter? Why so flustered?"
Michael Hall asked with an unpleased expression.
The driver swallowed and said, "Boss, Dirk Carter has gone to Koryn City to take office."
"Let him go, without the appointnt letter in my hand, his going there would be aningless."
Michael Hall said carelessly.
The driver quickly said, "It's not just him going alone; it's... Secretary Zhao personally sent him."
Michael Hall's expression froze abruptly, as if he hadn't heard clearly, he asked, "What did you say? Fabian Vincent sent him personally?"
The driver nodded.
He said, "That's right, I saw it with my own eyes."
Michael Hall's mind buzzed.
He stood up suddenly and said, "Prepare the car, go to Koryn City..."
He had no choice but to be nervous.
Although Dirk Carter's appointnt letter was indeed in his hand, if the Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Committee personally saw him take office, having the appointnt letter or not didn't matter, after all, Dirk Carter's appointnt was already officially recorded.
If at this mont he still held on, and Fabian Vincent took issue later, he couldn't afford the consequences.
Though he was gnashing his teeth in hate.
Yet he had no recourse.
On the way there, he was still pondering, he had gone through the materials, how co Dirk Carter, who had no connections in Rextion City's officialdom, suddenly got involved with Fabian Vincent, known as The Reaper?
Around one-thirty in the afternoon.
In the Municipal Committee Compound located at No. 123, Yongqing Road, Koryn City.
The leaders of the four major bodies, the Municipal Committee, Municipal Governnt, People's Congress, and Political Consultative Conference, were already waiting at the entrance of the building.
Under the gaze of everyone.
The No. 3 car of the Municipal Committee slowly drove through the gate and stopped in front of everyone.
The Mayor of Koryn City, Robert Shepherd, personally stepped forward to open the car door.
He warmly called out, "Hello, Secretary Zhao."
Fabian Vincent nodded, shook hands with Robert Shepherd, glanced around, and asked, "Where is Comrade Hughes?"
The "Comrade Hughes" he inquired about was Jeff Hughes, the Secretary of the Koryn City Committee.
Robert Shepherd acknowledged and said, "Secretary Hughes has gone to the countryside for research, and will only return tomorrow."
"Alright, let introduce to you all, this is our newly appointed Organization Minister of Koryn City, Comrade Dirk Carter."
Fabian Vincent deliberately pulled Dirk Carter to his side and introduced him to everyone.
"Comrade Dirk Carter, hello, welco to Koryn City, with the Organization Departnt in your hands, I can rest assured."
Robert Shepherd was still quite proactive, shaking hands with Dirk Carter.
Then.
Under Robert Shepherd's guidance.
Dirk Carter greeted and shook hands with the leaders of the four major bodies one by one.
With the welcoming ceremony over, just as everyone was about to enter the eting room.
That was when Michael Hall also arrived.
He hurriedly got out of the car and ran up to Fabian Vincent, out of breath, saying, "Sec... Secretary Zhao, I'm really sorry, there was an unexpected eting, thank you for helping bring Comrade Dirk Carter over."
"No problem, Minister Hall is busy with official duties, whereas I am relatively free, next ti if sothing like this happens, just give a call."
This sentence was full of sarcasm.
It's known that Fabian Vincent is the third-in-command in Rexton City.
And Michael Hall, well, is just the Executive Deputy Minister of the Organization Departnt.
Claiming to be freer than Michael Hall, this was a blatant warning.
This also sent another signal, declaring to everyone present, that Dirk Carter is one of Fabian Vincent's people.
Upon hearing this.
Michael Hall dared not say anything.
Among a crowd of people.
Everyone entered the eting room.
Originally, Dirk Carter's appointnt letter should have been read by the Organization Departnt.
But Fabian Vincent actively took on this task himself.
With the appointnt ceremony concluded.
Robert Shepherd approached proactively and said, "Secretary Zhao, you haven't eaten yet, have you? The cafeteria has prepared so simple als..."
Before he could finish.
Fabian Vincent waved his hand and said, "No need, I need to hurry back, I have a eting in the afternoon."
After clearly refusing.
Fabian Vincent said to Dirk Carter, "Comrade Dirk Carter, co out with for a bit."
"Okay, Secretary Zhao."
Following Fabian Vincent out the door, they went over to his official car, Fabian Vincent saw that the leadership team of Koryn City was waiting at the door, and deliberately patted Dirk Carter's shoulder, solemnly saying, "I've stood up for you, what cos next in Koryn City is up to your own ability, don't co to if you run into trouble, I won't intervene."
While the prior actions fulfilled the promise made to Dirk Carter.
These words now were a precautionary reminder to Dirk Carter.
After all, he wasn't familiar enough with Dirk Carter, and feared that Carter might misuse his influence in Koryn City in a reckless way, which would ultimately tarnish Fabian Vincent's reputation.
By making the statent bluntly.
Dirk Carter was made aware to be restrained.
After saying this.
Fabian Vincent turned and boarded the car.
Departing amidst everyone's waving hands.
At this mont, Dirk Carter did not realize that by leveraging Fabian Vincent, he did secure his position.
But this decision had also planted a huge hidden danger for him.
