This President Yu Peishan from Zhi Xing Group was introduced by Li Jingyi.
Lin Hao, for the sake of Secretary Li, granted Zhi Xing Group a project and gave them preferential policies under the guise of investnt promotion.
But is it possible that this President Yu has so new ideas? She actually wants to co to talk with the National Developnt and Reform Commission?
If that's the case, Lin Hao would give them a chance.
After receiving the order, Deputy Director Wei Lianggui of the National Developnt and Reform Commission imdiately contacted Yu Peishan, asking them to co for a detailed discussion in the afternoon.
After returning to the County Party Committee Office, Lin Hao went to Li Jingyi's office.
However, the fact that Zhou Banghuai was secretly taken away for investigation yesterday was sothing that evidently many people were still unaware of.
The problem now is that if Zhou Banghuai reveals more people, the entire officialdom of Wucheng County will undoubtedly undergo an explosive upheaval.
Therefore, Li Jingyi must prepare for the worst, make plans in advance, and arrange alternate candidates for so key positions.
"Director Lin, I will hold a standing committee eting this morning. You should sit in and listen," Li Jingyi said.
"I'm afraid that's not appropriate. I'm not a permanent mber," Lin Hao said, looking troubled.
"What are you afraid of? To be honest, Zhou Banghuai is already in trouble, but I haven't made it public yet. In case a significant figure from the county leaves, you will have to step in and hold the fort," Li Jingyi finally revealed the shocking news.
"What? In trouble? How could this happen? Do you know what he did?" Lin Hao feigned surprise.
"You don't know?" Li Jingyi scrutinized him.
"How could I know? I'm just a small director, and I'm not even familiar with County Magistrate Zhou," Lin Hao responded frankly.
"You sly fox, you really don't know?" Li Jingyi still felt that this matter had so connection with Lin Hao.
"Really don't know!" Lin Hao said earnestly.
"If you don't know, then so be it. But prepare yourself. If sothing goes wrong with the standing committee, you must stand in to help until soone from above cos to take over the work," Li Jingyi treated him as a versatile tool person.
"Alright, but I'm afraid I can't handle it," Lin Hao said with a bitter face.
"Whether you can handle it or not, you have to. That's an order!" Li Jingyi said very sternly.
"Understood!" Lin Hao had no choice but to agree.
"By the way, keep the matter of Zhou Banghuai being taken away for investigation confidential for now," Li Jingyi instructed.
"Got it." Lin Hao nodded slightly.
Li Jingyi, being parachuted in, indeed had no foundation in Wucheng County, but during this period, she still managed to build so connections.
The successful implentation of the new energy project, in particular, had spread Secretary Li's reputation around Wucheng County, and more party mbers and cadres had co to know this capable female secretary.
In the anti, Li Jingyi also learned more about the situation of party mbers and cadres in Wucheng County, which played a crucial role in her future plans to employ these truly talented individuals.
At the standing committee eting, Lin Hao, the County Party Committee Office Director, was present, but County Magistrate Zhou Banghuai was absent, which imdiately gave off a peculiar vibe.
However, from beginning to end, Li Jingyi did not let Lin Hao speak but instead had several standing committee mbers report on the recent work and the upcoming tasks.
Among the standing committee mbers of Wucheng County were Deputy Secretary Qin Ming, Executive Deputy County Magistrate Zhao Tingshen, Organization Departnt Head He Wulin, Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary Yuan Zhiming, Politics and Law Committee Secretary Zhang Boqing, Publicity Departnt Head Chen Peiyu, and County CPPCC Chairman Xu Tingguang.
Originally, there was also NPC Director Su Dingfang, but since he went for recuperation, being half-retired, he was naturally left out.
Lin Hao made detailed notes on the entire eting, also worried that if sothing happened to any of them, the work could be tily arranged.
From the evidence and clues Lin Hao currently held, Deputy Secretary Qin Ming and Executive Deputy County Magistrate Zhao Tingshen seed to have unusual relations with Zhou Banghuai.
However, both were cunning old foxes, acting as if nothing was happening, while actually, there was a faint, uneasy feeling in their hearts.
Although Wucheng County seed calm and peaceful now, it was the last calm before the storm.
After the eting, Qin Ming gave Zhao Tingshen a look, and the latter followed him into the office.
Once the office door was closed, Zhao Tingshen anxiously asked, "Secretary Qin, is there sothing you need?"
Qin Ming responded in a deep voice, "Zhou Banghuai's phone has been unreachable since last night. Li Jingyi said he went to the city for a eting. I find this situation a bit unusual."
"I also felt sothing was off during today's eting." Zhao Tingshen nodded slightly, his face turning solemn.
"Last night, I sent a WeChat ssage to Zhou Banghuai. If it were just a eting, he should have replied, yet there has been no response. I guess sothing happened to him," Qin Ming speculated boldly.
"What? Sothing happened?" Zhao Tingshen's face changed drastically.
"That's just my guess," Qin Ming replied with a sullen face.
Zhao Tingshen took out his phone and dialed Zhou Banghuai's number, only to hear a series of busy signals, indicating it was turned off.
"County Magistrate Zhou's phone is indeed off, but that doesn't necessarily an sothing happened, right?" Zhao Tingshen was puzzled.
"Because I had a friend in the city inquire, and they said County Magistrate Zhou wasn't in the city, nor was there any eting," Qin Ming explained.
"Could it be County Magistrate Zhou turned off his phone voluntarily, or maybe his phone malfunctioned?" Zhao Tingshen frowned slightly.
"You might be right. Let's not get too nervous. Let's send soone to find him and see if we can locate County Magistrate Zhou," Qin Ming reassured himself.
"Alright, I'll go find Madam Zhou and have her call the Municipal Party Committee and the City Governnt to locate him first," Zhao Tingshen suggested.
"That's all we can do now. If sothing has indeed happened to County Magistrate Zhou, we might not be spared either. At least for now, we are still fine, which ans County Magistrate Zhou might be okay, and maybe I'm just being too sensitive," Qin Ming rubbed his temples, looking a bit tired.
"Secretary Qin, don't worry too much. Shen Sihai is being held at the County Commission for Discipline Inspection and is still under interrogation. But he is holding up well and shouldn't betray County Magistrate Zhou. I'll call Jiang Yunchao and ask about the situation on Shen Sihai's side," Zhao Tingshen imdiately took out his phone and called Jiang Yunchao.
A mont later, after the call ended, Zhao Tingshen hung up.
"How is Shen Sihai doing?" Qin Ming asked eagerly.
"Haha, Shen Sihai is indeed formidable. He has withstood the commission's relentless questioning without betraying anyone and even strongly denied that he instructed Liu Kui to commit murder," Zhao Tingshen laughed heartily.
"As long as Shen Sihai hasn't collapsed, County Magistrate Zhou should still be safe." Qin Ming's heart was at ease.
"I told you, we might have been too tense lately, making us overly suspicious. I'll contact County Magistrate Zhou's wife and have her call the Municipal Party Committee," Zhao Tingshen said with a smile.
"Alright, let know as soon as you find him. I still feel sowhat uneasy," Qin Ming instructed.
"Understood, Secretary Qin," Zhao Tingshen replied with a smile and then left the room.
