pinnacle of power

Liu Qingyu didn't know that after he left Zeng Guohai's office, for a period of time to come, at the provincial committee level of Tiandu Province, there was a lot of discussion about who would be the deputy secretary of the provincial committee after Zhu Guangzhi, the former deputy secretary of the provincial committee, retired. There was a fierce contest.At the beginning, Zhao Dongcai proposed that Wang Honghao be the deputy secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, which was strongly opposed by Zeng Guohai, and the two sides even confronted each other on the Standing Committee.

Later, the two sides directly extended this contest to Yanjing City, and both went to Yanjing City to carry out public relations work.

In the end, it was still evenly matched. In the end, at a meeting of the Standing Committee, Liu Huajiang, Secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, proposed a new plan, that is, Wang Honghao would be the Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee. Liu Qingyu will be the member of the Standing Committee of the committee. As for the mayor of Tiandu City, which was vacated after Hou Yuqiang was taken down, Ji Jiantao, the mayor of Wuping City, will be transferred. Of course, the chief prosecutor of Tiandu Provincial Procuratorate will also be replaced A veteran deputy dean of the Provincial Higher Court was appointed to serve as the deputy dean. This deputy dean has worked diligently in the judicial system for decades. He has never handled an unjust, false or wrongly decided case. He is capable and fair. His appointment as attorney general was unanimously agreed.The positions of Deputy Chief Prosecutor and Director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau of the Provincial Procuratorate were assumed by Hou Biaofeng, the former Deputy Director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau proposed by Liu Qingyu.Hou Biaofeng was already the deputy director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau at the deputy department level before. When Liu Qingyu was the director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau, he worked very low-key and rarely got involved in various sensitive cases.

Therefore, Hou Biaofeng's assumption of this position did not arouse much opposition from Zhao Dongcai's side. In fact, they did not know that Hou Biaofeng was the object of Liu Qingyu's conscious protection since he took office. Important backhand.Because Liu Qingyu knew from the very beginning that once he made outstanding achievements in the Anti-Corruption Bureau of Tiandu Province, he would definitely not stay in this position for a long time.Therefore, he has already started to find out about the deputy directors.Especially after getting in touch with Hou Biaofeng, Hou Biaofeng showed his willingness to approach and do things from the very beginning.Moreover, after Liu Qingyu studied many of his resumes, he suggested that he keep a low profile for the time being.

However, although Hou Biaofeng looks very low-key on the surface, in fact, behind the scenes of the recent series of actions of the Anti-Corruption Bureau, there is his shadow, but he has been hiding behind Liu Qingyu, actively supporting Liu Qingyu. Make plans and do a good job in all kinds of aftermath processing.

As for Liu Qingyu's appointment as Secretary of the Tiandu Municipal Party Committee, because it was to balance the result of Wang Honghao's appointment as Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, all forces had no objection to this.

Of course, with regard to the arrangement of Wang Honghao and Liu Qingyu, Tiandu Province only offered its own suggestions, and whether it could be finally approved would depend on the opinions of the Central Organization Department of Yanjing City.

Two months later, the final appointment results came out. The superiors adopted the personnel adjustment opinions of Tiandu Province, and finally confirmed that Wang Honghao was appointed as the deputy secretary of the Tiandu Provincial Party Committee, Liu Qingyu was appointed as the secretary of the Tiandu Municipal Party Committee, and Tiandu Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee.

When the appointment document came down, Liu Qingyu looked at the document with a slight smile on his face.

Although he was already prepared for this appointment, when he actually saw this document, he was still a little excited.

After all, with the arrival of this document, it indicates that he will create a brand new record, the 34-year-old deputy provincial leader!And he is also the powerful secretary of the municipal party committee!Although Liu Qingyu didn't care about this record, he could feel the trust of the party and the organization in being able to hold the top position in a provincial capital city like Tiandu City, and he also felt the heavy burden on his shoulders.He knew that Secretary Zeng of the Provincial Party Committee was still waiting for him to use his ability to develop Tiandu.

This is an unreserved trust.

What Liu Qingyu didn't know was that just before he took office, the new mayor of Tiandu, Ji Jiantao, had been in Tiandu for two months.

Before Ji Jiantao came to Tiandu City to take up the post of mayor, under the arrangement of a friend, he secretly came to a luxurious villa and met a mysterious figure—the master.

Ji Jiantao didn't know who this master was, but he was strongly recommended by his friend. The friend also told Ji Jiantao that the reason why he was able to transfer from Wuping City to Tiandu City was because of this master. worked hard.Moreover, this master has a relatively large influence on some things in Tiandu Province.

When Ji Jiantao met the master, the master did not face Ji Jiantao, but turned his back to him, his face was staring at the computer in front of him, and the vision in the whole room was a little dark, so he couldn't really see the real face of the master clearly. head.

"Ji Jiantao, do you know why I suggested that the superiors transfer you from Wuping City to Tiandu City?" the master asked calmly.

"I don't know very well, please clarify, master." Ji Jiantao said very modestly.

"The reason why I transferred you here is because I have some understanding of your abilities. I can only say that you are quite good at fighting in the officialdom, and you are extremely good at maneuvering. Hou Yuqiang has already entered the judicial process and has seen the whole Tiandusheng, I think, only you can be qualified for the position of Hou Yuqiang.

The second is because you have no fear of Liu Qingyu.According to my estimation, with the fall of Hou Yuqiang, and soon Zhu Guangzhi will retire.And Wang Honghao has his eye on Zhu Guangzhi's position, but it is absolutely impossible for Zeng Guohai to let him sit in this position smoothly, and it is impossible for Zhao Dongcai to bypass Zeng Guohai and strongly support Wang Honghao's position. Therefore, both parties must fight and compromise in order to My prediction, the final result must be that the position Wang Honghao leaves after leaving office will be taken by someone who is more recognized by Zeng Guohai. Taking a look at the department-level cadres who are more recognized by Zeng Guohai, Liu Qingyu is the one I am more optimistic about. Therefore, I guess At that time, it is very likely that Liu Qingyu will serve as the secretary of the Tiandu Municipal Party Committee, so, to prepare for a rainy day, I suggest that you be transferred to Tiandu as the mayor. "

Speaking of this, the master's tone became a lot more serious: "How about it, if Liu Qingyu is really the secretary of the municipal party committee, do you have the confidence to fight him?"

Hearing this, Ji Jiantao said with a solemn expression: "Master, I have heard of Liu Qingyu's name in Wuping City, and the inspection team of the Anti-Corruption Bureau has also stayed in our Wuping City to carry out investigations, but so far, he has been in our Wuping City. Wuping City has not gained much, so I have doubts about whether Liu Qingyu has real ability. As for being afraid? That is absolutely impossible. Liu Qingyu is very powerful, but he is just a foreigner That's all, and I'm a native of Tiandu Province. Although my roots are no longer in Tiandu City, I still have many friends and contacts in Tiandu City and the province. If Liu Qingyu wants to make a promise in the municipal party committee, That's absolutely impossible."

The master nodded in satisfaction after hearing the words: "Okay, very good, I can rest assured that you are so confident. Don't worry, although Hou Yuqiang was taken down, the network of contacts he left in Tiandu is still there. , I will arrange some heavyweight figures in Hou Yuqiang's network to meet with you recently, so that you can grasp the network of contacts left by Hou Yuqiang as soon as possible, and these will be the capital for your future struggle with Liu Qingyu."

In the next two months, with the help of the master, Ji Jiantao met with the key figures in the many network networks left behind by Hou Yuqiang. The authority of many key figures in the Tiandu city government is getting heavier and heavier, and basically a situation of monopoly in the city government has been formed.Even stronger than Hou Yuqiang's period.

This is determined by Ji Jiantao's character.One is that Ji Jiantao's personality is quite strong by nature, and the other is that Ji Jiantao's desire for power is very strong.Although Hou Yuqiang also liked to control the overall situation when he was in office, he was cautious in doing things and didn't want to be easily caught by others, so he would restrain himself when doing things and would not offend people easily.

But Ji Jiantao is different. Ji Jiantao likes absolute control. After he took office, after obtaining the support of most members of the municipal government's party group, he immediately began to adjust the first and second leaders of various agencies and units under the municipal government's jurisdiction.

And his adjustment this time was strongly supported by Wang Honghao, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. Therefore, before Wang Honghao left office, during this period of about two months, Ji Jiantao had firmly controlled the Tiandu city government. big picture.

And because Wang Honghao had the idea of ​​being promoted to the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, he also introduced his direct descendants to Ji Jiantao among the active leaders of the Tiandu municipal party committee, allowing them to establish a very good personal relationship with Ji Jiantao.In this way, once Wang Honghao leaves the position of Tiandu Municipal Party Committee Secretary, but as long as he is still in Tiandu Province, no matter whether it is through Ji Jiantao or through his direct descendants, he, Wang Honghao, can still exert relatively powerful influence on Tiandu City. influence.And no matter who the new secretary of the municipal party committee is, it will not be so easy to get rid of his shadow, Wang Honghao.

Today is a sunny day.

The Organization Department of the Central Committee sent a deputy minister to the Provincial Party Committee of Tiandu Province to personally send Wang Honghao and Liu Qingyu to their posts.At this inauguration ceremony, Liu Qingyu spoke in a simple and flat manner, without any rhetoric, giving people a very peaceful feeling.

Zhao Dongcai's gaze was locked on Liu Qingyu from the beginning to the end, carefully studying Liu Qingyu's expression, but there was a slight sneer in the depths of his eyes.
