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

Sha Ruijin simply smiled and nodded after hearing this.

"However, I heard from Secretary Guo Fu that Director Qi had some problems in the past."

"Really? Secretary Sha, as you know, I've only been in Handong for a short time, and my knowledge of Qi Tongwei's past is limited to some publicly available information. If there are problems with Comrade Qi Tongwei, then let Secretary Guo Fu investigate him thoroughly."

However, the impact must be considered in handling this matter, especially the subsequent work of the public security organs, which our provincial party committee must take into account.

Upon hearing this, Sha Ruijin couldn't help but think to himself, "Chen Luo has said everything, good and bad."

However, Sha Ruijin also understood Chen Luo's attitude towards Qi Tongwei: he neither protected nor shielded him, and he certainly wouldn't kick him when he was down.

In fact, to some extent, this kind of Chen Luo makes Sha Ruijin feel more at ease.

If Chen Luo were to casually push Qi Tongwei forward as a shield, Sha Ruijin would find it harder to sleep, since the Yin family wouldn't be well-liked.

Sha Ruijin then took the initiative to change the subject, no longer dwelling on Qi Tongwei's problem, just as Chen Luo said, to let the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection have the Anti-Corruption Bureau conduct an investigation first.

After arriving at Jingzhou Wanda Plaza, the most bustling area of ​​Jingzhou, Chen Luo and Sha Ruijin got out of the car.

The area was packed with pedestrians; it was the time when people were getting off work, shopping, and having dinner.

"Comrade Chen Luo, it's clear that Jingzhou's economic development is very dynamic. Comrade Dakang's work is quite effective."

Chen Luo smiled and nodded.

"Secretary Dakang certainly has a knack for developing the economy."

Guided by Secretary Bai, the two arrived at a private room in a private restaurant.

After sitting down, Chen Luo originally intended to bring up the matter of Chen Hai's transfer, but before Chen Luo could speak, Sha Ruijin across from him brought it up first.

"Comrade Chen Luo, what are your thoughts on Chen Hai, who was just dismissed from his post?"

"what?!"

Chen Luo was clearly taken aback; anyone who didn't know better would think that Sha Ruijin had mind-reading abilities.

"Comrade Chen Hai, I must say that this comrade has a good work attitude and his party principles are also okay. It's just that he is not suitable to work in an agency like the Anti-Corruption Bureau. His personality is too impulsive, and he even does not abide by the rules and regulations!"

Overall, the advantages are obvious, but the disadvantages are equally obvious!

Sha Ruijin nodded and then said, "Yes, Comrade Chen Hai has very obvious strengths and weaknesses. I think he is not suitable to stay in the political and legal system, but is more suitable to work in a government agency."

Chen Luo almost rolled his eyes. Sha Ruijin, you're lying through your teeth. Chen Hai, that idiot, can't even handle the anti-corruption bureau, and you want to work in a government agency? The old cadres bureau?

After thinking it over, although it was somewhat against his conscience, Chen Luo decided to agree with Sha Ruijin's bizarre perception.

"In theory, there's no problem with Comrade Chen Hai getting a job in a government agency, except..."

"What is it?"

Sha Ruijin's eyes shone with anticipation for Chen Luo's answer.

"There are no suitable vacancies in government positions."

Upon hearing this, Sha Ruijin fell silent for a moment.

"By the way, Secretary Sha, besides Comrade Chen Hai, I've also discovered another excellent comrade!"

"Oh? Secretary Chen, what do you think?"

Sun Liancheng, the head of Guangming District, Jingzhou City!

This comrade served in a deputy director-level position for seven or eight years, and his work in Guangming District was very effective, especially in addressing public concerns.

Sha Ruijin knew that Chen Luo wouldn't mention Sun Liancheng for no reason. After thinking about how the head of Guangming District was a deputy director-level position in the government, Sha Ruijin immediately understood.

"The fact that Comrade Chen Luo recommended him shows that Comrade Sun Liancheng is very outstanding!"

"Having not been promoted for seven or eight years, Secretary Dakang's performance as the top official in Jingzhou is still inadequate!"

Chen Luo smiled slightly.

"Secretary Dakang has a rather strong personality and is concerned about the survival and development of the people of Jingzhou. It is normal for him to be a little negligent in personnel appointments."

"Yes, Comrade Dakang is a bit too domineering. It would be good if we could balance things out a bit."

Chen Luo didn't respond to this. This topic was actually more suitable for Sha Ruijin and Governor Liu to discuss. After all, Chen Luo and Li Dakang were at the same level, so it was fine for them to discuss it privately. When it came to maintaining balance, it was best to just listen and not take it too seriously.

“Secretary Sha, it’s difficult for most people to face Secretary Dakang, except for his former colleagues. For example, Comrade Yi Xuexi, the current acting mayor of Luzhou City, should be able to withstand the pressure if he were to work with Secretary Dakang.”

Sha Ruijin was somewhat tempted by these words.

Li Dakang needs someone to check and balance him. Originally, Yi Xuexi and Sha Ruijin were intended to be transferred to serve as the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission of Jingzhou, but now Lü Liang is clearly more suitable and his work is in place, so this idea has been temporarily suppressed.

And now...

"Comrade Chen Luo, I remember there are still vacancies for the positions of Vice Mayor of Jingzhou City and Secretary of the Party Committee of Guangming District, right?"

"It seems to be Secretary Sha!"

After Chen Luo finished speaking, Sha Ruijin continued, "If Comrade Yi Xuexi were transferred to Jingzhou as the vice mayor and secretary of the Guangming District Party Committee, Comrade Dakang's job would surely be more stable!"

Chen Luo did not explicitly express his support for the proposal.

"Secretary Sha, this means the position of mayor of Luzhou City will be vacant again."

"This problem is easy to solve. Didn't you just say that Sun Liancheng is a good comrade? I think it would be very suitable for him to be the mayor of Luzhou!"

The key point is in the next sentence.

"At the same time, we will transfer Comrade Chen Hai to the government and appoint him as the head of Guangming District. With Yi Xuexi watching over him, Chen Hai will be able to overcome those shortcomings!"

Thump thump, Chen Luo admitted that he was a little confused.

Things took an unexpected turn; before he could even mention it, Sha Ruijin had already arranged all the steps he wanted to take.

With patience, Chen Luo shook his head, feigning helplessness.

"Secretary Sha, the key issue is that it's difficult to communicate with Governor Liu and Secretary Dakang, after all..."

Upon hearing this, Sha Ruijin smiled and looked at Chen Luo, his meaning clear: I helped you promote Sun Liancheng, so you have to show your appreciation.

“I can communicate with Secretary Dakang. As for Governor Liu, Comrade Chen Luo, I think you can still speak to him.”

“Secretary Sha, isn’t this a bit inappropriate? I’m just the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, not the Minister of Organization…”

"Hey! Revolution knows no distinction of size, and work knows no distinction of 'yours' or 'mine'. As long as it benefits the development of Handong, all members of our provincial committee have this obligation!"

“Okay, Secretary Sha, your words are insightful! It’s all for the development of Handong. I’m willing to have a chat with Governor Liu.”

"That's right! Come on, Comrade Chen Luo, have some food! This restaurant was recommended by Xiao Bai; I heard the Sichuan cuisine is absolutely amazing!"

After dinner, Chen Luo and Sha Ruijin strolled around a bit more, basically just walking and looking at things.

Sha Ruijin asked for some opinions on economic development, and Chen Luo was happy to share some of his humble views.

At 9:10 p.m., Secretary Bai's car drove into the provincial party committee compound. After saying goodbye to Chen Luo at the door, Sha Ruijin returned to his villa number one to rest.

As soon as they entered the house, Chen Zhengxi rushed over and hugged Chen Luo's leg.

"Dad, I miss you!"

"Jung-hee, you've made a mistake again?"

Just as Chen Luo finished asking his question, Chen Zhengshu, who was sitting on the sofa, said, "Dad, my sister took Mom's lipstick to draw on her face, and Mom has already found out."

"Hahaha, I knew it!"

The joyful atmosphere and harmony of the family dispelled the calculations and fatigue from Chen Luo's daytime work.

Early the next morning.

When Chen Luo arrived at the office, Liu Mingyu was already tidying up Chen Luo's desk and making tea.

Good morning, Secretary Chen!

As soon as Chen Luo sat down, Liu Mingyu carefully brought him a cup of hot tea.

"Mingyu, I gave you a day off yesterday, did you take advantage of it?"

Chen Luo was a little curious, and although Liu Mingyu was somewhat embarrassed, he still told Chen Luo the truth.

"Secretary Chen, the charge is about to begin."

"Tsk tsk, you're pretty good, kid!"

The topic suddenly shifted.

"You need to focus on your own business with Director Lu. I won't say anything else, just get back to work!"

"Yes, Secretary Chen!"

At 11:30 a.m., Chen Luo arrived at the provincial government building. He had already called Governor Liu in advance.

Governor's Office.

"So Secretary Ruijin just agreed to your proposal like that?"

Governor Liu's expression was quite interesting after listening to Chen Luo recount his conversation with Sha Ruijin the previous night.

"Ahem, I didn't expect Secretary Sha to follow my lead. Also, these were all suggestions from Secretary Sha; I just guided the conversation a bit..."

"Hey, forget it. That old bastard Hao Yi called me the other day and said you're smarter than a monkey, and your methods of exchanging favors are masterful."

But this was also a stroke of luck for you.

But there's one thing I don't quite understand.

"Governor Liu, please speak."

Chen Luo cooperated very well.

"You promoted Sun Liancheng to be the mayor of Luzhou, kicked Chen Hai to be the district head of Guangming District, and transferred Yi Xuexi to Jingzhou as the deputy mayor and district head of Guangming District. You can't just be appreciating Sun Liancheng, can you?"

Chen Luo shook his head. Although he couldn't completely trust Governor Liu, there were some things he could reveal to him.

"You guessed perfectly!"

"Don't try to dodge the question, tell me quickly."

"Governor Liu, what if, I mean, what if, after the New Year, I were to concurrently serve as the Party Secretary of Lüzhou City?"

"Huh!? The Hu family would agree to that?"
