The Pinnacle of Power: Rapid Promotions Starting from the Old Cadre Bureau

Chapter 115 Please show mercy



Chapter 115 Please show mercy

"County Chief Chen, shouldn't we first inform Secretary Xiangzhang and get his opinion on such a significant matter?"

The county government does not directly lead the publicity department.

The Publicity Department is under the jurisdiction of the County Party Committee.

Minister Zeng is an old man in the county, and he closely follows in Zhou Xiangzhang's footsteps.

David was prepared for the possibility that the other party would not cooperate.

This was Dawei's first time meeting Zeng Weiliang in his capacity as county head; there will be more opportunities in the future.

If he can't get past this hurdle, it will be very difficult for David to carry out his work.

If the county government wants to organize any activities in the future, or if the cultural and tourism department wants to carry out any publicity, or if there is a disaster and a notification or early warning, etc., these things will be restricted.

Why not take this opportunity to get rid of him?

"I am now making this request to you."

Can this be reported? What is Secretary Xiangzhang's opinion? Should we take his opinion into consideration?

This is a decision that you, the head of the publicity department, must make.

The county's public security authorities launched a night-long operation, with over a hundred officers working around the clock to improve public order and achieve remarkable results.

As the county head, I believe it is necessary for the county propaganda department to report on this matter to boost morale and inspire people.

It also demonstrates to the public our determination to crack down on illegal and criminal activities.

I don't think there's anything unreasonable about it.

Dawei brushed the question away; he wasn't going to ask Zhou Xiangzhang for instructions. If he had to ask before he could do something, he might as well not do it at all.

Zeng Weiliang was in a dilemma, but his face remained as steady as an old dog: "County Chief Chen, you are not in the propaganda department, so you don't know the stakes here."

Some things need to be considered separately.

We shouldn't only see the good side.

The police officers really worked hard last night.

But this did reveal that some people were involved in drug use.

If this is reported, it might cause negative public opinion. Some people might say, "Our Yuanshan County has poor public security, how come there are still people using drugs?"

So we need to study this further…

David smiled indifferently: "Okay, you can take your time to study it."

If the county propaganda department feels it's too risky to report this, I can contact the propaganda departments at the city and provincial levels.

I don't think these things will cause any negative public opinion.

Oh, so if you don't report it, the drug-related issues won't exist?

This is just burying your head in the sand.

David waved his hand, looking somewhat impatient.

Zeng Weiliang was surprised that Dawei would bring up the higher-level propaganda department, and he was unsure of what to do.

When Lin Wangyou’s post was reposted by the new media department of a provincial media outlet, Zeng Weiliang was puzzled. Why would the provincial media pay attention to Yuanshan County?

Moreover, shouldn't we consult with the publicity department of Yuanshan County before deciding whether to forward this?

After hearing what Dawei said today, Zeng Weiliang finally understood. The last time the provincial media forwarded Lin Wangyou's post, it was Dawei who was behind it all.

In other words, Dawei has connections in the provincial propaganda department.

"County Chief Chen, please don't be angry."

I'll go back and take care of it right away.

He finally gave in.

Zheng Zhiguo sat in the chair, relaxed, with a bright smile on his face.

The county magistrate is flattering him.

It's a blessing to have such a fair and just leader.

Young people are decisive and efficient when they get things done; they don't follow the old bureaucratic ways.

"County Chief, you're busy, I'm going back to work."

"Um."

David didn't try to stop him.

Zheng Zhiguo was in a great mood after leaving the house, which meant that he had gotten past Chen Dawei.

The matter of letting Xie Liting go this time because Li Taoying intervened is now in the past.

I had just sat in the car, ready to leave.

Then they noticed someone knocking on the car door from the passenger side window.

Zheng Zhiguo rolled down the car window: "Secretary Tan?"

Why hasn't this guy left yet?

"Director Zheng, have you finished your talk with the county magistrate?"

Secretary Tan of Xiaotang Town was all smiles; it was clear something bad was going on.

Zheng Zhiguo nodded at him with a serious expression: "What's wrong? What's the matter?"

"Could I have a few minutes of your time to talk?"

Zheng Zhiguo unlocked the door.

Secretary Tan got into the passenger seat, closed the window, took out some cigarettes from his bag, and offered them to Zheng Zhiguo.

Zheng Zhiguo took the cigarette but didn't light it: "What's wrong? Tell me."

"What were you talking about with County Chief Chen just now?"

"Don't inquire about work-related matters or cases."

Last night, the county conducted a large-scale security check, and the whole county knows about it. The owners of the hot spring resorts in Xiaotang Town are all feeling insecure.

Secretary Tan also didn't sleep well all night.

Especially after David's hints and lecture, he felt uneasy.

The hot spring resorts and hot spring clubs in Xiaotang Town have a long history.

The village cadres have changed batch after batch.

These places, however, remain steadfast.

There are too many people and things involved; it's not something that someone surnamed Tan can handle.

He only hoped that nothing would happen to him during his tenure.

Did they mention anything about our Xiaotang Town?

Zheng Zhiguo, a seasoned official, immediately guessed that Secretary Tan had just been criticized, and that County Chief Chen had also mentioned the hot springs.

"I already told you, don't ask. I can't say. There are rules."

"If there are any operations targeting Xiaotang Town, you'd better go easy on them and give them a heads-up."

Secretary Tan opened his bag and reached inside to take something out.

Zheng Zhiguo reacted quickly and immediately grabbed his hand, saying seriously, "Don't mess around!"

Old Tan, I'm warning you, don't get me into trouble.

If you continue like this, you'll lose all your friends.

Secretary Tan took one look and realized that this was the county government parking lot, and that doing it this way was indeed not a good idea.

"That evening, come to my house. I'll have your sister-in-law cook some dishes, and we'll invite some other people over to keep you company..."

It's obvious that they're going to arrange for the hot spring therapists to accompany them.

Previously, the owners of the hot springs in Xiaotang Town had sent representatives to Zheng Zhiguo, but Zheng Zhiguo would never go before Dawei took office.

Moreover, Dawei is now in charge, and he and Dawei have a bright future.

At this critical juncture, Zheng Zhiguo would never provoke such trouble.

"Get out of the car," he said sternly.

Secretary Tan looked helpless: "Director Zheng, this makes things very difficult for us."

"Get out of the car." Zheng Zhiguo reached out and opened the passenger door.

Secretary Tan of Xiaotang Town had no choice but to get out of the car in a huff.

Zheng Zhiguo immediately drove away, feeling an indescribable sense of satisfaction.

It's not that you have to take advantage of others or do bad things to feel good.

Sometimes, it feels really good to criticize someone so righteously and openly, to be a good person for once.

At the county government office, Director Wu sent the travel plan to Director Liu of the logistics department.

Lao Liu replied immediately on QQ that he had received the message.

Looking at the time, he realized they had to leave in half an hour, so Lao Liu immediately got up to coordinate with the drivers.

All drivers at the company went to check their vehicles and prepare to depart.

This time, nine vehicles are needed, but the county can only mobilize seven, which is not enough.

Wu Maocai went to Dawei and offered his and Dawei's cars for everyone to use temporarily.

Upon hearing that they were going to the countryside, Lin Yunxing quickly checked the tires, oil level, brakes, and even the spare tire for air.

The roads to the countryside are difficult to travel on, making it easy to get a flat tire.

When the time comes.

A group of people walked out of the government building.

Chen Dawei is at the very front.

The morning sun shone on his snow-white short-sleeved shirt. The medicine prescribed by the old gentleman from Kyoto was remarkably effective; the white hair on his forehead had all turned back to black, and his complexion had become rosier.

He walks like a gust of wind.

Wu Maocai followed a step behind him, carrying a bag in one hand and a thermos in the other. He looked a little haggard, a result of working overtime late into the night.

Behind Director Wu was Zhao Kui, carrying a backpack and holding the county magistrate's cup. He walked slowly and steadily, his face solemn.

Further behind were Director Wu's subordinates, creating a tense atmosphere.

As Dawei crossed the central axis of the county government compound, the sunlight fell directly into his eyes, forcing him to squint and quicken his pace.

Upstairs, two women from different offices watched with the same admiring gaze as Dawei walked toward the parking lot.

One is Li Taoying from the County Party Committee Office, and the other is Xiao Lili from the Bureau of Veteran Cadres.

They all felt that only a man like that was worthy of them.

Lin Yunxing opened the back door of the Passat in advance.

David nodded slightly and got into the car.

Nine cars drove away from the compound, heading towards different destinations.
