Nominal: Who isn't a son-in-law?

"Where is Comrade Dagong?"

Chu Shijun called out.

"Secretary Chu, I'm here."

Zhao Dagong, who was sitting next to Liu Tonggu and the others talking behind him, immediately stepped forward.

Chu Shijun turned around and waited for him to walk to his side before saying, "Comrade Dagong, the tasks for this year have been clearly explained. As the executive vice governor, you are in charge of important areas such as the economy and state-owned assets, so you must pay extra attention and not be careless in the slightest. Currently, you are also leading the government's major artificial intelligence project in our province. You have a heavy responsibility. Are you confident that you can handle it?"

"Yes, Secretary Chu, yes."

Zhao Dagong nodded repeatedly, "The heavier the burden on my shoulders and the more solid the responsibility, the deeper I'm rooted in the ground."

"Good, it's good that you have this confidence. Your work ability is obvious to all, and we believe you will deliver a good result."

Hearing this, Zhao Dagong breathed a sigh of relief.

In the last few months of last year, he was constantly on edge.

He was worried that one day Chen Xinghe would ask him to come to his office to discuss work.

Later in the meeting, when Hu Xue, Sima Shenhe, and others were discussed, he spoke even less and buried himself in his work after the meeting.

Finally, the situation has become clear, and this time his job change was not mentioned.

So as long as we behave ourselves, the next one won't be until the end of the year.

With a little more effort, I can still sit in the chair and go applaud later.

The others were well aware of his change in mindset, and Chu Shijun understood it even better. However, seeing his confidence, he didn't say anything more and instead addressed the other two: "Comrade Xinghe, Comrade Tonggu, regarding the tasks I mentioned at the meeting, your Discipline Inspection Commission and Organization Department should come up with a plan. Is a week enough?"

"That's enough. We'll go back and convene the team to discuss it as soon as possible."

The two quickly agreed.

"Okay, submit your proposal to me within a week."

"Comrade Jiageng,"

Chu Shijun looked at Li Jiageng, "And what about the commendation ceremony in July? Has the selection process for outstanding young cadres and university students, which we mentioned before, started?"

"Secretary Chu, the General Office issued notices at the end of last year, clarifying the commendation requirements for Baijiang and the cities, counties, and townships in the areas receiving assistance. The evaluation process will officially begin in March, with a second review in May and the final list to be determined in June," Li Jiageng said.

"Okay, proceed according to this schedule. Remember, the review mechanism must be strict. There must be no unqualified individuals or anyone trying to pull strings. I want to see the final list. All information must be detailed and made public to the public as required."

Chu Shijun nodded, said no more, and strode towards the elevator.

Behind them, a large group of people followed, watching as the Standing Committee members boarded the elevator one after another.

……

"Secretary Shenhe,"

In the corridor, Sima Shenhe was walking towards his office when he suddenly heard someone call out behind him. He turned around, stopped, and waited, raising an eyebrow as he said, "Comrade Zhenwen, what brings you here?"

"I've come to report to you on my work."

Liu Zhenwen strode forward, his police badge number still reading "Provincial Department 002" on his chest.

Sima Shenhe smiled slightly, raised her hand and tapped his chest, teasingly saying, "Aren't you going to change into some new clothes?"

"Hehe, I can change my clothes when I get back. Reporting to you is the priority."

"You little brat."

'Click'

Upon entering the office, Sima Shenhe took off his coat, and Liu Zhenwen immediately stepped forward to take it and hang it on the coat hanger.

"What would you like to drink?"

"I'm not picky. I'll drink whatever you have," Liu Zhenwen quickly said. Seeing Sima Shenhe preparing to make tea, he followed up, "Secretary Shenhe, let me do it."

"Why don't you just become my secretary?"

Sima Shenhe looked at the tea canister that had vanished from his hand and shook his head helplessly, but the expression on his face showed that he was very pleased with it.

Putting everything else aside, this attitude alone proves that I didn't push him in vain.

……

After brewing the tea, Liu Zhenwen sat down opposite him.

Sima Shenhe offered him a cigarette and said casually, "Comrade Zhenwen, work-related matters can be reported routinely. There's no need to be so formal in private."

Liu Zhenwen understood the situation well. He had originally planned to come in the afternoon, but Li Dakang told him to come early to show his attitude, so he came directly.

They said it was a work report, but both of them knew that they didn't have any documents in hand, so what was there to report?

"Okay, Secretary Shenhe, I've always kept that in mind. I will definitely do my job conscientiously; it's my duty."

"Now that I am entrusted with a heavy responsibility as the Director of the Public Security Bureau, we will always follow your ideas and arrangements. We will do whatever you deploy. Please give us more guidance in our work in the future."

Sima Shenhe remained calm, but a hint of approval flashed in his eyes. He nodded slightly and said, "Comrade Zhenwen, in the system, ability is the foundation, but position is the key. The political and legal system has heavy responsibilities and great turbulence. What we fear most is that people are not united and their pace is not in sync. Many tasks cannot be carried out because there are too many problems, but because some people are selfish and their positions are wavering."

He paused, took a drag of his cigarette,

"You worked in Zhencheng before, and you were very capable. Comrade Dakang recommended you to me and spoke highly of you."

"But when I judge people, I never look at how eloquently they speak, but only whether they can be relied on in critical moments and whether they can handle things."

Liu Zhenwen understood; he could be considered a link between them.

"You're right. I've always been clear about my role. I will resolutely implement your work arrangements in the political and legal field. I will also promptly sort out other ideas and the situation on the front lines, ensure smooth coordination, guarantee information transparency, and prevent any deviations."

"Hehe, good. Comrade Dakang and I share the same idea. We both want to work diligently and stabilize the situation. You, as a cog in the machine, just do your job well and make sure the transition is smooth."

"If we encounter difficulties or resistance in our follow-up work, we should not be discouraged. We should boldly proceed according to the rules. With mutual understanding between us, many problems can be solved naturally."

Liu Zhenwen nodded: "Yes, please rest assured."

He felt completely relaxed, and a subtle, almost imperceptible joy followed.

From then on, he enjoyed good fortune. After him came Sima Shenhe and Li Dakang.

There was no conflict or contradiction between the two in their work.

He can't even sit still in that chair properly.

Think about the promises Li Dakang made to him.

After a few years of hard work, I would strongly recommend him for a higher-end configuration.

He and Sima Shenhe were the main pushers in the province. Later, Li Dakang had a father-in-law, and Sima Shenhe had a good relationship with Vice Minister Qi Tongwei, so there was not much resistance on this line.

If we go even deeper, it's the uncle of the boss's friend's classmate.

His path to advancement will be smooth sailing from then on!
