Ran Qizhi knew Gan Qiu was furious, and chose not to retort.
Instead, he poured a glass of water for him, "Don't be angry, have so water first."
"I'll drink your f***ing water!"
In a fit of rage, Gan Qiu threw the glass to the ground.
Seeing this, Ran Qizhi frowned slightly, looking sowhat displeased.
Gan Qiu didn't notice this and continued speaking to himself.
"Chen Bin's personnel standards absolutely cannot be implented, otherwise we'll lose control over the people below."
Chi Chunhua hesitated, saying, "Isn't that a bit unrealistic? After all, Chen Bin was sent by the province. If we offend him completely, it'll be very difficult to get promoted in the future."
Gan Qiu had no plans to go to the province, so he wasn't at all fazed by these words.
Instead, he said firmly, "I don't care, anyway we must oppose Chen Bin. Whoever dares to support him, I'll deal with them first."
In the evening, Chen Bin had just finished dinner when Shan Liqiang arrived.
After chatting aimlessly for a while, Shan Liqiang suddenly asked.
"I wonder how Ouyang Tianxiong's woman is doing now?"
Chen Bin replied, "The case has been handed over to the prosecutor's office. I reckon it'll reach the court soon."
"Ouyang Tianxiong is rich and powerful, and Jian Xiulian is his most beloved woman. Won't there be any slip-ups then?"
"No, I've already called the prosecutor and the court and asked them to handle it according to the law."
"If that's the case, you still have to be careful of Ouyang Tianxiong's retaliation."
Upon hearing this, Chen Bin appeared very dismissive.
"If Gan Qiu and his people gang up against , that would be troubleso. As for a businessman like Ouyang Tianxiong, what can he do to ? Does he plan to attack ?"
In Chen Bin's view, unless Ouyang Tianxiong is tired of living, he wouldn't act that way.
"It's better to be safe than sorry. Ouyang Tianxiong has been running amok, surely he won't want to suffer a loss."
"Jian Xiulian deserves what's coming, and if Ouyang Tianxiong is smart, he'll manage his subordinates well. Otherwise, I'll get him next ti."
Just then, the phone rang.
Chi Chunhua inford Chen Bin that Gan Qiu had just called a eting.
The general content was to staunchly oppose the new personnel standards.
Chen Bin was quite pleased about the leak of information.
It seed Chi Chunhua had truly switched loyalties to him.
The next morning, Chen Bin convened a city party committee eting.
After he reiterated the personnel standards, Gan Qiu was the first to refute.
"I believe that in officialdom, seniority should be prioritized. Otherwise, lacking experience and qualifications, one simply can't fulfill the duties. Being a leader isn't all theory; practice is more important than theory."
Looking at Gan Qiu, Chen Bin responded righteously.
"Mayor Gan's words make sense, but how many in Tianhe's cadre have both the ability and experience? Experience is accumulated, whereas ability is innate, making ability more important."
Gan Qiu was montarily speechless, quickly glancing at Ran Qizhi.
The latter nodded subtly and spoke.
"Work ability is important, but we must consider the bigger picture. I think only the senior comrades can win more support. Having seniors hold the fort and capable young comrades do the real work is the most stable combination."
"What if the seniors bully the juniors, what do you plan to do?"
"That... I..."
Ran Qizhi didn't know how to reply for a mont and managed to say.
"That's still better than making mistakes, right?"
To this, Chen Bin directly rebuked.
"Your thinking is just wrong. Not seeking achievent but avoiding mistakes is just typical inaction. The reason Tianhe hasn't developed so far is due to your laziness and negligence!"
Ran Qizhi stamred, unable to utter a word, and seeing this, Gan Qiu quickly looked at Chi Chunhua and others.
None expected Chen Bin to be so eloquent and didn't dare to provoke him.
At this point, Shan Liqiang chid in.
"I believe Secretary Chen's personnel system is very correct. Since it's so difficult for Tianhe to develop, we should look for reasons within ourselves."
Upon hearing this, Gan Qiu scoffed openly.
In his view, Shan Liqiang was insignificant.
Thus, he directly said to Chen Bin, "Secretary Chen, since none of us can convince each other, let's put it to a vote."
Chen Bin nodded slightly, scanning their faces.
"Does anyone else want to speak?"
Everyone lowered their heads, remaining silent.
"If that's the case, let's put it to a vote."
When Chen Bin raised his hand, Shan Liqiang imdiately followed suit.
Chi Chunhua wasn't sure whether to raise her hand, so she instinctively looked at Chen Bin.
Being an insider spy among Gan Qiu's followers, even if she's exposed, timing is crucial.
However, Chen Bin chose silence and didn't respond.
So, Chi Chunhua didn't raise her hand.
Looking around, she saw no one else raising their hand, making Gan Qiu look very smug.
The anger that had been pent up in his heart gradually dissipated.
Chen Bin wasn't angry, instead he spoke.
"Since most disagree with the new personnel standards, I'll go back and reassess them. I'm glad everyone is sticking to their principles; I'll report this to Secretary Cheng and Governor Liao. eting adjourned!"
Having said that, he got up and left the conference room.
Bao Shanshan followed closely.
Shan Liqiang glanced at everyone gloatingly and left as well.
In an instant, the conference room was dead silent.
No one felt excited about defeating Chen Bin.
After all, Chen Bin had the province's top officials backing him; if they really offended him, what would they do?
Gan Qiu was unconcerned.
"Don't be afraid, Chen Bin is definitely bluffing. We had a huge win today; let's celebrate tonight. After work, et at the usual spot; no one's allowed to skip."
Back in his office, Chen Bin sat quietly in his chair.
Bao Shanshan was extrely angry, "They're really going too far, dare to collectively oppose you."
"Yes, Tianhe is at a critical juncture now. If those parasites continue wreaking havoc, it'll be hard to develop in the future."
"What should we do? They've already banded together, changing things will be really hard."
Holding Bao Shanshan tightly, Chen Bin laughed.
"Things aren't as bad as you think. On the surface, I lost this committee eting, but those who follow Gan Qiu have already wavered internally. It won't be long before soone cos to voluntarily."
"Really?"
"Of course it's true!"
"I don't believe it!" Bao Shanshan was also resolute in her attitude.
After all, during the eting, she observed everyone closely and saw no wavering.
How could they easily betray Gan Qiu?
Chen Bin didn't explain, but asked.
"How about we make a bet? If soone cos to surrender within the next few days, you lose, and you have to agree to do sothing for unconditionally. If I lose, I'll get your brother a stable job, how about it?"
Hearing she could settle Bao Tianci's job issue just by betting, Bao Shanshan didn't hesitate and agreed imdiately.
After all, Bao Tianci was the core of the family, and only by solving his employnt problem would Ruan Guilan stop bothering.
"Alright, a bet it is, you can't go back on it!"
