Ji Cheng also knew that this was not the ti to be angry. Song Guanchao had invited reporters, clearly intending to blow up the school incident.
Making it big wouldn't do him any good.
"Did you get in touch with Director Song?"
"I did." Yang Jian smiled bitterly, "Director Song is too assertive. Even if I promised to solve the problem, it wouldn't matter."
Ji Cheng asked again, "What about Mayor Zhang?"
"I contacted him, but it was no use." Yang Jian shook his head with another sigh, unable to help but complain, "I have no personal grievance with Director Song, so I don't know why he's targeting ."
Ji Cheng only sneered, "Because you are Mayor Zhang's man."
Yang Jian was stunned for two seconds, then suddenly saw the light.
He had had two phone calls with Song Guanchao. No matter how much he promised, Song Guanchao wouldn't listen.
This made him suspect at one point whether he had offended him.
It wasn't until Ji Cheng's hints that he suddenly realized.
He is Zhang Yan's man, and that is why Song Guanchao is going after him with a vengeance!
This is damn factional struggle!
Yang Jian panicked.
Factional struggles are always a matter of life and death, with no stopping until goals are achieved.
Song Guanchao has already started making his moves. A series of tactics left him powerless to fight back.
"Secretary Ji..."
"You should go back." Ji Cheng waved his hand, "I'll head to the City Governnt Office later."
"Alright, then..."
"Don't expect too much from . I can't guarantee that I can solve it."
To solve the problem, one must grasp the core.
Now he knew where the core was but wasn't sure he could solve it.
Yang Jian's lips moved a little, finally sighing with resignation, "I understand."
After he left, Ji Cheng headed to the City Governnt Office.
"Secretary Shu, does Mayor Wu have ti now?" Ji Cheng smiled gently, humble and polite.
"Please wait a mont, Secretary Ji."
Secretary Shu went into the office to report, then opened the door, "Secretary Ji, please co in."
Wu Qiangwei knew why he was looking for her. After Secretary Shu left, Wu Qiangwei directly asked, "Secretary Ji, are you here about No. 1 High School?"
Ji Cheng nodded and straightforwardly said, "Regarding the No. 1 High School incident, how does Mayor Wu plan to handle it? Is there anything I can help with?"
Wu Qiangwei pondered briefly, "The problem with No. 1 High School is not trivial."
Ji Cheng's expression was solemn as he nodded, "I specifically looked into it and found that there are indeed quite severe issues."
Wu Qiangwei replied, "No. 1 High School is currently being handled by Director Song. You can contact him to discuss specific solutions."
Ji Cheng was unsure of what she ant, unable to discern if she was being perfunctory or sothing else.
But he couldn't say more, so he nodded, "Alright, then please let Mayor Wu inform Director Song that I will contact him shortly."
After he left, Wu Qiangwei couldn't help but utter a light exclamation.
She was a bit curious about what exactly Song Guanchao had done.
Why was even Secretary Ji from the district committee coming to her?
How did he handle the cafeteria poisoning?
Wu Qiangwei dialed the phone and asked, "How is the situation being handled?"
"Pretty well."
"Secretary Ji from the district committee just ca to see ."
"What is he looking for you for?" Song Guanchao felt inexplicable; what does this have to do with your district committee?!
Wu Qiangwei did not answer but continued to inquire, "Tell about the current situation."
Song Guanchao said, "I have suspended Director Wang from the Pailou Street Police Station and the No. 1 High School office director from their duties. I also invited reporters over."
"Yang District Chief ca to negotiate with , but I ignored him..."
At this point, Song Guanchao paused and suddenly laughed.
He understood why Ji Cheng was reaching out to Wu Qiangwei.
It was because Yang Jian found Ji Cheng, trying to get him on board.
"You invited reporters?" Wu Qiangwei frowned, her tone sowhat composed, "What are you planning to do?"
Song Guanchao said, "Based on the information currently in hand, the cafeteria owner is likely backed by Yang District Chief, and the school is involved in a profit exchange with Director Wang. Oh, by the way, Yang District Chief is Zhang Yan's man."
Upon hearing this, Wu Qiangwei's serious expression suddenly relaxed.
He intends to take this opportunity to bring down Yang District Chief.
Even if he can't bring him down, he will make him subject to disciplinary action, thereby losing his chance for competition.
Of course, his target wasn't Yang Jian but rather to weaken Zhang Yan's influence.
Wu Qiangwei spoke softly, "Secretary Ji will contact you later. Communicate with him so there's no misunderstanding."
"I got it."
After hanging up the phone, a smile appeared on Wu Qiangwei's face.
Song Guanchao was so determined to weaken Zhang Yan's power, clearly for her sake.
Although he didn't say it explicitly, Wu Qiangwei could sense it.
...
Song Guanchao didn't have to wait long before Ji Cheng's call ca in.
"Hello, Director Song, I'm Ji Cheng, the district committee secretary of Gulou District."
In terms of rank, as the district committee secretary of a provincial capital city, Ji Cheng is at the deputy provincial level.
And the City Governnt Office... or rather, the accurate na should be the City Governnt Office.
The office, being the core comprehensive departnt of the City Governnt, is a leading bureau-level organization with the plaque of the City Governnt Counselor's Office.
Typically, Song Guanchao, as the director of the office, corresponds to a leading bureau level, commonly known as a provincial level.
But before being transferred here, Song Guanchao was rely at a leading divisional level.
After being transferred, his administrative level was only promoted by half a level, to a deputy provincial level.
So in administrative rank, both are deputy provincial levels.
But as a core departnt of the City Governnt, the resources and authoritative influence it holds are, broadly speaking, greater than that of the head of Gulou District.
However, within Gulou District, Song Guanchao is not as powerful.
But everything has two sides.
For instance, in this cafeteria poisoning case at No. 1 High School, Song Guanchao could directly intervene on behalf of the City Governnt, establish a special task force, completely sidelining the district committee and district governnt, and investigate independently.
As the district committee secretary, Ji Cheng needed to consult Wu Qiangwei if he wanted to get involved.
In short, Song Guanchao is backed by the City Governnt, by the Mayor.
Ji Cheng is like a county magistrate of Gulou District.
In Gulou District, he is the Supre Emperor, but his power is limited to Gulou District.
Outside Gulou District, he's just Secretary Ji when others call him that.
Without the need for investnt projects in Gulou District, he's nothing.
Song Guanchao is different; his authority covers the entire Jiangzhou City.
If he wants, he can directly manage several districts and counties.
In other words, the director of the City Governnt Office and the secretary-general of the City Governnt are the spokespersons of the Mayor and Deputy Mayor.
"Hello, Secretary Ji." Song Guanchao replied formally, "Mayor Wu has spoken with over the phone."
Ji Cheng felt relieved inside.
Song Guanchao continued, "Regarding the No. 1 High School incident, I hope Secretary Ji will cooperate with ."
Ji Cheng imdiately said, "I will certainly cooperate. May I ask how Director Song plans to handle it?"
"Let's discuss it in person. Where are you, Secretary Ji?"
"I'll co to find you." He was still in the car on his way back to the district committee.
"Alright." Song Guanchao gave an address, a tea house near No. 1 High School.
Twenty minutes later, Ji Cheng arrived.
"Director Song." He shook Song Guanchao's hand firmly, with a sincere smile, showing enough enthusiasm.
