In name only: The land of Handong, I shall rule its fate.

After Sha Ruijin went down to investigate.

It seems that the provincial party committee and government have returned to their old ways, holding meetings as usual and developing as needed.

Yang Wanli's application was approved quickly, and the next day Yang Wanli led his team to visit Europe.

Yang Wanli left.

Standing Committee member and Vice Governor Fang Denggao grew anxious: "Executive Director Lin, when are we going to the lighthouse?"

"What's the rush!"

Lin Zhiyuan glared at him, annoyed. "Secretary Wan Li just left. Do you think the higher-ups will approve our applications to go abroad?"

It is extremely rare for three members of the Standing Committee to visit different countries for project coordination and visits within the same province at the same time. It requires special approval and the process is very complicated.

"I'm in a hurry, aren't I?"

Fang Denggao scratched his head.

He had heard that Wu Chunlin had also gone to the capital, and perhaps he had found a way out as well.

Everyone else is giving it their all at the starting line, how can he just stand still on the starting line?

"Have you confirmed the domestic new energy vehicle manufacturers?"

Lin Zhiyuan countered with a question.

"This…"

Fang Denggao awkwardly produced a report document, "Handong currently has serious deficiencies in all aspects of the research and development of new energy passenger cars and SUVs. To be honest, there isn't anything particularly suitable."

"These three are the best among the worst."

"In my personal opinion, the prospects for development are not very good."

Lin Zhiyuan took the document, his eyes widening:

An electric bus, a micro electric vehicle, a… all just empty promises, presented only in a PowerPoint presentation.

Within Jingzhou, there is no capacity to manufacture complete vehicles.

Lin Zhiyuan's face turned ashen.

If looks could kill, Fang Denggao would already be riddled with holes.

"The first company should focus on new energy buses and try to seize the market now, then switch to exports; the second company should focus on electric vehicles for the elderly, which will allow them to make a living and generate good profits."

"And this one, which idiot approved this project in Handong? Tell him to come over here and give us a report."

"Chuzhou?"

Lin Zhiyuan picked up the phone and dialed Gao Sheng directly:

"Get these idiots over from Chuzhou right now. I don't want to see them before tonight. Get the Audit Bureau and the Ministry of Supervision stationed at the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government."

Fang Denggao took a step back and moved far away. It was the first time he had ever seen Lin Zhiyuan so angry.

"You piece of trash!"

"New energy subsidies are so tempting, right? You dare to come here and make money just by putting together a PowerPoint presentation and a few fabricated stories."

Lin Zhiyuan looked at Fang Denggao, who was trembling, and pulled out another report from the drawer. "Go contact the old CA factory. Their production capacity is idle and can be converted into a new energy production line as quickly as possible."

"We negotiated with them and reached a cooperation agreement. The State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission injected capital. In the early stage, new energy vehicles were developed under the name of CA, and later they were transformed into an independent brand."

"In addition, Jingzhou now has the technical conditions to develop new energy vehicles, but it has obvious shortcomings in independent battery cell development, passenger vehicle-specific platforms, and refined electric control algorithms."

"Our goal now is not to move into the high-end market, but to get a head start and catch up with the top domestic brands. We can make appropriate compromises while ensuring safety."

Premise: Safety first!

"What we need to do is quantity, so that the vehicles driving on the highways of Jingzhou, Handong and even the whole country are not cars, but exploding barrels."

Lin Zhiyuan said, word by word.

"I understand, Executive Director Lin."

Fang Denggao dared not joke around as usual and made a serious promise.

"How's the ride-hailing platform setup going?"

Lin Zhiyuan asked again.

The ride-hailing platform R&D team was established at the same time as the government's online platform, but the leading role was given to the Jingzhou government.

"It will take about six months to develop a usable business platform that can be applied to Jingzhou and even Handong, but if it is nationwide, it will probably take more than a year."

Fang Denggao answered cautiously.

"We need to hurry!"

Lin Zhiyuan patted his partner on the shoulder, "We don't have much time left for Governor Liu, and I won't have much time in Handong either. We need to make the most of every minute."

Fang Denggao was visibly shaken, as if he had heard a tremendous secret.

While things were in full swing in Handong, the capital city in the far north was a completely different story.

The Anti-Corruption Bureau received an anonymous tip from an investor, which clearly stated that Zhao Dehan, a section chief in a certain department of the Energy Bureau, had accepted bribes.

The incident started because Zhao Dehan accepted the money, but the approval was not granted, and he refused to refund the money, so the other party exposed himself.

Section Chief Hou Liangping immediately launched a series of investigations, which clearly confirmed his illegal and disciplinary violations and the evidence of his crimes.

The operation is about to conclude.

But Zhao Dehan's recent situation is a bit strange. He doesn't go home and works overtime in the office every day. He doesn't seem to care about his wife and children. It's said that they are going through a divorce and his wife has taken the children back to her parents' home.

"Director Hou, has that old bastard noticed we're investigating him? Or is he deliberately cutting ties with his family and running away?"

The subordinate asked with a grin.

"Who cares which one it is, they'll all end up getting arrested by our anti-corruption bureau anyway."

Hou Liangping smiled smugly; he wasn't the first person in that position to be arrested.

Very experienced.

They had already secretly cut off all possible routes for Zhao Dehan to leave Beijing or even flee elsewhere.

"Xiao Lei, has the document arrived yet?"

Hou Liangping looked at another young man.

"Director Hou, the document has been approved and signed by Director Qin and the institute."

Xiao Lei answered quickly.

"good!"

Hou Liangping felt he had already seen the day when he would go from having (deputy director-level treatment) to having a substantive deputy director-level position.

Whether one can be promoted to deputy director level before the age of 43 is a hurdle within the system. If one is promoted, one is at least a shortlisted candidate within a certain system. If one is not promoted, well, sorry, one can probably see the end of one's life.

And he, Hou Liangping…

I'm 41 years old this year!

Furthermore, the title of deputy director-level official indicates that the anti-corruption bureau has already confirmed his status as a shortlisted candidate, and he is only missing a key.

And the key has now been delivered to our door.

Energy Bureau, oh Energy Bureau, this is truly his lucky place.

Four years ago, he secured the position of Director of the First Investigation Division by taking over from the previous director.

"Director Hou, shall we act now?"

Hou Liangping was lawless, and his subordinates more or less developed the same fearlessness, since they all had the department head and the Zhong family backing them up.

"No rush!"

Hou Liangping looked towards the Energy Bureau from two streets away, "Let's take another look. We'll go after most people have left work."

Xiao Ai always says he doesn't understand the rules of the system and doesn't consider the impact of people's actions. Haha, Hou Liangping knows the rules best!

For example, in the area under Director Lin's jurisdiction, even if he received some leads, he wouldn't touch them and would directly hand them over to the Second and Third Investigation Divisions to handle.

He avoids anyone he shouldn't mess with and runs away faster than anyone else.

Otherwise, how could he have been so arrogant in the capital for so many years, relying on the Zhong family's influence? The Zhong family isn't the only one; his high-profile approach to cases is only in the gray areas.

The other party either won't dare to retaliate or won't retaliate, because once they take action, they will investigate thoroughly.

It was around 10 p.m.

The lights in the Energy Bureau building were finally turned off one by one.

action!
