In name only: I will break the chess game in Handong!

"Hey, honey!"

Chen Luo's tone softened completely.

On the phone, Chen Luo's wife, Zhang Nian, spoke with a gentle voice, asking with concern, "Honey, did your trip to Beijing go smoothly?"

Chen Luo smiled and replied, "Yes, it went very smoothly!"

Are the children all asleep?

"They've fallen asleep. The two little ones are a bit naughty; I called you as soon as they were asleep."

Hearing his wife's reply, Chen Luo felt a warmth in his heart.

"Honey, you've worked so hard!"

"Hmph, you're only just finding out now?"

"Are we going to Handong with you this time?"

Hearing this, Chen Luo thought for a moment and then nodded.

"After I settle down in Handong, I'll bring you over. I estimate that our family will have to settle down in Handong for the next few years."

"Okay, I understand. You get some rest now, I'll hang up now, we'll wait for you!"

After hanging up the phone, Chen Luo felt a little reluctant to leave.

His wife's name is Zhang Nian. She graduated from Beijing University of Finance and Economics with a major in finance and was a well-known talented woman at the university.

The two met while Chen Luo was pursuing his doctorate.

Chen Luo was six years older than Zhang Nian, and the two quickly got married in their first year after graduation.

After getting together with Chen Luo, Zhang Nian plunged into the financial market with his support, and soon after their marriage, she gave birth to twins.

As night deepened, Chen Luo soon fell asleep.

A few days later, a plane took off from Beijing and headed straight for Handong International Airport.

on the plane.

Besides Chen Luo and Minister Xu from the Organization Department of the Central Committee, there is another person: Sha Ruijin, the soon-to-be-appointed Secretary of the Handong Provincial Committee!

Minister Xu was there to announce the organizational appointments, so it was natural to introduce Chen Luo and Sha Ruijin on the plane.

On the two soft chairs at the front, Sha Ruijin and Minister Xu sat side by side, while Chen Luo sat in the row behind them.

Next came their respective secretaries and accompanying staff.

"Comrade Ruijin, the organization believes in your ability to oversee the overall situation when you go to Handong to take charge of the work."

The two chatted casually.

One is a high-ranking official in charge of a region, and the other is a Beijing official who is likely to take over the top position in the Organization Department of the Central Committee in the next term. Although they are of the same rank, Sha Ruijin is well aware that he is still somewhat inferior to Minister Xu.

"The situation in Handong is complicated. The organization trusts me and has sent me, Sha Ruijin, to Handong to take charge of the work. I must show a spirit of not being afraid of difficulties in my work!"

Minister Xu and the organization can rest assured on this point!

Minister Xu listened with a smile in his eyes, without showing any obvious emotion. Instead, he changed the subject and turned to look at Chen Luo behind him.

"Comrade Ruijin was not fighting alone. Comrade Chen Luo also went to Handong to preside over the political and legal work. To be honest, this was my junior's first time working in the political and legal field."

"Upon arriving in Handong, we will need Comrade Ruijin's full support for Comrade Chen Luo's work."

Sha Ruijin already knew about this relationship.

He also turned to look at Chen Luo.

"Comrade Chen Luo, I have long heard of your great name. In recent years, the development of Suzhou has been frequently praised by the State Council, which has encouraged other regions to learn from your development experience."

I'm really looking forward to working together in Handong this time!

Sha Ruijin wasn't lying; Chen Luo had just been promoted to vice-provincial level, posing no threat to him, the provincial party secretary.

In some ways, Chen Luoneng's ability to establish a foothold in the political and legal work in Handong was also of great help to his political mission in Handong.

Chen Luo smiled and replied, "Secretary Sha, it's all for serving the people; it's what we should do!"

Tai Chi, who doesn't know how to do it?

Sha Ruijin simply smiled faintly at this. It would be best if Chen Luo could cooperate, but it wouldn't matter if he couldn't, after all, one was a graduate of Peking University and the other was a graduate of Tsinghua University...

Minister Xu found the two's pointless conversation quite interesting, but he quickly picked up the topic and continued chatting with Sha Ruijin.

Meanwhile, at Hantong International Airport.

The other members of the Hantong Provincial Committee were already waiting.

Governor Liu Changsheng, with his full head of white hair, looked indifferent and took the new provincial party secretary in stride. What difference did it make who came?

The reason is quite simple: he's getting old and had no chance of taking over the position. Ever since he failed in the leadership competition when Zhao Lichun went to Beijing four years ago, Liu Changsheng has basically only thought about retiring peacefully.

Unlike Governor Liu's composure, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee Gao Yuliang and Secretary of the Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee Li Dakang were visibly frowning.

The other members of the Standing Committee all had calm expressions, showing no joy or happiness, except for Tian Guofu, the secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, who was beaming with smiles.

The plane landed quickly at Handong Airport.

As the cabin door opened, Minister Xu stepped out first, followed by Sha Ruijin, and then Chen Luo.

"Minister Xu, welcome!"

Governor Liu walked at the front, smiling and greeting Minister Xu with a warm handshake. He then turned to Sha Ruijin and Chen Luo beside him and said with a smile, "Secretary Ruijin, Comrade Chen Luo, Handong welcomes you!"

After another round of handshakes, Chen Luo finally met all the members of the Standing Committee of Handong, a total of thirteen people including himself.

They are the provincial party secretary, Sha Ruijin.

Liu Changsheng, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and Governor.

Gao Yuliang, full-time deputy secretary of the provincial party committee.

Tian Guofu, Secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection.

Organization Minister: Wu Chunlin

Li Dakang, Secretary of the Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee.

Executive Vice Governor, Shen Demin.

Yu Manjun, member of the Standing Committee and Vice Governor.

Publicity Minister: Yang Yanhua.

Gu Qiubei, Minister of the United Front Work Department.

Qian Zhiming, Secretary-General of the Provincial Party Committee.

Lu Zheng'an, Secretary of the Party Committee and Commander of the Provincial Military Region.

Except for Lu Zheng'an from the Provincial Military Region, who did not come to the airport to greet them, all other members of the Standing Committee were present.

Another hour passed from the airport to the provincial party committee building, after which Minister Xu announced the organizational appointments.

When the welcome banquet arrived that evening, Chen Luo finally breathed a sigh of relief. The whole day's work was even more exhausting than when he stayed up all night developing the development plan for Suzhou...

The banquet hall was not only filled with Chen Luo and other standing committee members; basically all the bureau-level cadres from Handong were there.

Fifteen people sat at the large round table in the very center, including the thirteen standing committee members of Handong, the chairman of the provincial CPPCC, and Minister Xu.

At the back table, Qi Tongwei, dressed in the uniform of a first-level police inspector, gazed ahead and spotted Chen Luo's younger face through the crowd.

He swallowed the liquor in his glass in one gulp, feeling quite depressed.

Chen Luo was unaware of these things. There were two people sitting next to him at the moment: Li Dakang, the secretary of the Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee, and Tian Guofu, the secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection.

They were both very interested in Chen Luo!

For Li Dakang, Chen Luo's arrival was like cutting off Gao Yuliang's arm. What does that mean? It means friendly forces!

As for Tian Guofu, with his background in the Discipline Inspection Commission, he was well aware of Chen Luo's background, and his desire to befriend him was hard to hide.
