Official Career Storm Chapter 44

Erging from the office, Tian Xue had already picked up her bag, arrogant as a peacock courting a mate: "Let’s go."

This commanding tone truly had a bit of a top secretary’s style.

However, her position as a secretary may not last long.

He did not know what had happened at Chengda Company, but normally, even if a temporary guiding group was set up, appointing one secretary would have sufficed.

Officially, he was just a driver, with no need to get involved in such matters.

Yet Wu Qiangwei had included both him and Tian Xue in the guiding group.

This clearly had the intention of testing his abilities.

And having both of them join ant it was ant to synchronously assess them.

With the sa task, two people working together, it was easy to see whose abilities were stronger or who was more incompetent.

If Tian Xue mishandled things, and Song Guanchao handled them perfectly, then Tian Xue’s position as a secretary would be at its end.

He, Song Guanchao, would then rightfully take over.

Looking at Tian Xue’s proud and lofty deanor, she seed yet to discern the subtleties of the situation.

Song Guanchao suddenly felt that removing Tian Xue from her position as secretary was also a good thing.

Wu Qiangwei bore a heavy burden, with countless dangers both overt and covert.

With Tian Xue’s intelligence, holding such a high-risk position as the secretary to the City Secretary, she might be played to death without even knowing how she died.

A few minutes later,

The two arrived at the Disciplinary Committee office deployed at the City Committee.

As soon as Tian Xue walked in, she introduced herself with a smile, then saw Zhang Kai walking over, taking her hand and saying, "Hello Secretary Tian, my na is Zhang Kai, this is Liang Jiajia. We look forward to your guidance in the upcoming work."

Song Guanchao was sowhat surprised. The Disciplinary Committee pulled them both?

Tian Xue still wasn’t quite accustod to this warmth and humbly said, "Mainly focusing on industrial and tax services, we are just here to assist. Oh, and not just , Song Guanchao has also joined the guiding group."

"Him?" Zhang Kai’s expression turned peculiar. "Isn’t he the driver?"

Liang Jiajia was also very surprised. Yes, wasn’t he a driver?

Why would he also join the guiding group?

Song Guanchao quipped with a smile, "Is Chief Zhang questioning Secretary Wu’s guiding thoughts?"

Damn!

Zhang Kai cursed internally. This bastard starts right off by slinging mud!

His smile stiffened as he said, "No, no, I just didn’t expect Secretary Wu to assign two people. After all, the City Committee is all elites; I thought one would be enough."

"Heh."

Song Guanchao said, "Pack up your things, let’s go."

After speaking, he turned and walked away, with Liang Jiajia hurrying after him, and the two hurriedly following behind.

It suddenly looked like Song Guanchao, the driver, was leading, and they were his underlings.

Downstairs, Song Guanchao got into the car, opened the GPS to confirm their destination, and then drove off.

On the way, Song Guanchao said, "Chief Zhang, tell about Chengda Company."

He still had no clue what exactly this guiding group was supposed to do.

Zhang Kai was sowhat annoyed by Song Guanchao’s tone, but after all, the other was Secretary Wu’s driver and had also joined the guiding group, so Zhang Kai could only keep his annoyance to himself.

Through Zhang Kai’s explanation, Song Guanchao roughly understood the situation.

Chengda Company was a business operation managent company located in Lingbei District, with its own business center.

Its largest facility, the Chengda Mall on Minghai Road comrcial street, belonged to Chengda Company.

And a week earlier, the chairman of Chengda Company had been arrested for suspected bribery of high-ranking officials and economic cris.

The high-ranking official he bribed was none other than Li Fuhai.

In the ensuing week, many more senior managers of Chengda Company had been taken away for investigation.

This had led Chengda Company to a feeling of no one being in charge, with many operations grinding to a halt.

Normally, that should have ended matters.

After all, those who should have been arrested were arrested.

But now, the City Committee had suddenly set up a temporary guiding group to be stationed there.

This was sowhat thought-provoking.

Normally, the governnt would not interfere with corporate actions.

However, to have the governnt set up a guiding team to be stationed at the company.

This indicated that either the company was close to bankruptcy, and its bankruptcy could cause massive unemploynt, leading to severe consequences.

Or, the company had extrely severe internal issues, serious enough that governnt intervention was required.

Arriving at Chengda Company, Song Guanchao got out of the car and said, "I’ll go to the restroom. Please go up first."

After splitting from the others, he sent a ssage to Wu Yun, asking her to wait for him in the parking lot.

A few minutes later, the two t in the parking lot.

Song Guanchao directly asked, "Has Chengda Company’s capital chain broken?"

"Ah? No, the financial status of Chengda Company has always been quite good. It is a quality company in Lingjiang City, a major taxpayer."

"So why did the city set up a guiding group?"

Wu Yun was stumped by his question; she had never thought about this issue before.

Now questioned by him, she pondered but couldn’t co up with an explanation.

Song Guanchao said, "Tell about the situation with Chengda Company again, and in more detail."

Wu Yun then detailed the situation from beginning to end.

Suddenly, Song Guanchao caught so useful information.

"Did the industrial and tax departnt fine Chengda Company?"

"Yes, they fined them heavily, and..."

Wu Yun’s tone paused, seemingly hesitant to continue.

"And what?"

Wu Yun hesitated for a few seconds and said, "I’ll tell you, but you must not tell anyone else, especially not Secretary Wu."

Song Guanchao realized that what Wu Yun was about to say might involve Wu Qiangwei.

He was puzzled and curious; how could this high-quality enterprise of the city be involved with Wu Qiangwei?

Song Guanchao seriously promised, "I won’t."

"Li Fuhai was sent away by Secretary Wu, you know that, right?"

"I know."

This matter had long been circulating around the city, hardly a secret.

"The chairman of Chengda Company had a connection with Li Fuhai to transfer benefits, with conclusive evidence, and he is already in detention."

"What does this have to do with Secretary Wu?"

"Don’t be in such a rush," Wu Yun said. "Right after this incident ca out, the industrial and tax departnt imdiately went to investigate Chengda Company, arresting over thirty senior managers. The total amount of fines has already exceeded fifty million, and this is just the beginning."

With her voice lowered, she added, "I heard that this ti, the industrial and tax departnt is out to take down Chengda Company."

Startled, Song Guanchao suddenly understood everything.
