Qi Tongwei: Sign-in relationship started during student days

Chapter 1007 The Hidden Dragon of the Xia Family

Next, Qi Tongwei asked Zhang Haiyang, who was in charge of education, to give a brief report.

Firstly, to understand the situation, and secondly, to give Jian Yun a heads-up.

Zhang Haiyang knew that Qi Tongwei actually attached great importance to education, so he put in a lot of effort and gave a very detailed report.

As Qi Tongwei listened, he also took the opportunity to check on Jian Yun's condition.

[Purple]: Jian Yun

Status: Opposition

【Sign-in probability】:0

[Background]: Xia Guangcheng, member of the Red Star Committee and Minister of the Propaganda Department of the State Council.

Opposition! Xia Guangcheng!

Qi Tongwei's expression changed drastically.

This name was mentioned in North China yesterday.

He is suspected to be Li Yongbao's real backer.

The appearance of such a person in Beishan is definitely not just for the purpose of gaining prestige.

It's one wave after another. While they're making their plans, others aren't idle either, and they're making their plans even faster.

Qi Tongwei had a vague sense of unease.

Jian Yun, the deputy mayor, isn't even a member of the Standing Committee. What can she possibly do in Beishan?

Therefore, there is only one possibility: this is just a vanguard, and the bigger move is yet to come.

He thought about the vacant position of municipal party secretary after He Anxia left.

Yu Huabei speculated that there was a high probability that someone would be parachuted down from above.

Could it be that the people who parachuted in were also from the Xia family?

This is a bit tricky.

With a powerful municipal party secretary, Beishan is likely to see some changes.

Qi Tongwei's gaze turned slightly cold as he exchanged a glance with Jian Yun, who was listening to the report casually.

Their eyes met, but they parted as soon as they touched.

Jian Yun seemed to realize something. Did Qi Tongwei already know her identity?

That shouldn't be the case. She didn't come from the propaganda department, so it's impossible for an ordinary person to know her background.

But upon further reflection, I felt relieved.

Who is Qi Tongwei? With two powerful figures backing him up, it's not impossible that someone would have warned him.

That's right, besides getting her resume professionalized, she did have another important mission here.

That is to support the dragon. What kind of dragon? Naturally, it is to support the second generation of the Xia family—Xia Guangcheng's third son, Xia Guanglei, a hidden dragon.

Xia Guanglei is the most outstanding descendant of the second generation of the Xia family. At only thirty-eight years old, he has already gained experience in multiple departments and has been in a position at the level of a department director for two years.

What we need now is a result that can be quickly applied across departments.

The Xia family originally intended for him to develop his career in a southern city.

The South has developed rapidly in recent years, and cadres have advanced quickly. If you go there and take up a post, you have a great chance of becoming a star.

But if the Xia family can see this, other families can naturally see it too. The South is now a mixed bag, and who knows how many hidden talents are lurking there.

The Xia family's influence was greatly diminished there, making it difficult for them to achieve anything significant.

Just then, the rise of Beishan presented the Xia family with a new opportunity.

Beishan is a great place with a glorious political history. If you can achieve something there, your chances of becoming a star will be much greater.

Most importantly, this place is close to Kyoto and is within the Xia family's sphere of influence, so they can keep an eye on things.

However, when the Xia family took a closer look, they discovered that, wow, this small place called Beishan was actually full of hidden talents.

The municipal party secretary is the son of He Jiyun, the provincial party secretary of Handong Province, and the mayor is a reform general who was specially transferred from Handong by Director Zhong.

The two were not easily harmed, so the Xia family had no choice but to give up on the idea.

Unexpectedly, a letter of accusation with "five charges" appeared out of nowhere, giving the Xia family hope again.

And so they began to fan the flames.

Otherwise, how could a dubious document possibly make it into the internal reference materials?

They never expected that this action would provoke such a fierce reaction from the Zhong family and Pei Yihong, a loyal minister who had helped them rise to power.

They showed no mercy to Huazhonghai and were ready to fight them.

They thoroughly humiliated the Xia family.

How could the Xia family let this go so easily?

So they took advantage of Li Yongbao, who also had a conflict with Qi Tongwei, and launched a new plan.

The plan was neither a success nor a failure.

The position became available, but the Xia family paid a heavy price for it.

In order to secure this hard-won position and ensure the growth of Xia family's rising stars, Jian Yun was assigned to this post.

Her purpose in coming down here was to prepare and cooperate with Xia Guanglei in taking control of the situation in Beishan.

Therefore, she doesn't care much about what job she takes over now.

Once Xia Guanglei steps down, her job will definitely be adjusted. If nothing unexpected happens, she will definitely be promoted to the Standing Committee as vice mayor and join the municipal party committee.

Zhang Haiyang's report ended quickly, and Qi Tongwei nodded and looked at Jian Yun again.

Knowing Jian Yun's identity, Qi Tongwei's vigilance reached its peak, but he remained outwardly calm.

With a tone of concern befitting a superior, he encouraged her, "Comrade Jian Yun, education is the foundation of a century-long plan."

This is a very important job, so please take it very seriously and contribute to the education cause in Beishan.

Jian Yun smiled and said, "Mayor Qi, don't worry, I will do my best."

Qi Tongwei nodded, then turned his gaze to everyone, his smile fading. "That concludes today's report."

In addition, I would like to say a few more words to everyone here.

Recently, the city has undergone significant changes; many veteran comrades have left, and many new comrades have joined.

This poses a huge challenge to the development of Beishan. Everyone must remain steadfast and stand firm at their posts.

He paused and then said:

"When I came back, I heard a lot of false rumors and malicious slander against the leaders and cadres of Beishan."

I don't know what ulterior political motives the people spreading these rumors have.

I'm here to warn these people: don't treat the provincial and municipal party committees like fools!

Furthermore, this trend of spreading misinformation must not be allowed to continue. When you return, you must strictly restrain the departments under your jurisdiction.

Anyone found spreading such unfounded rumors will be severely punished!

Qi Tongwei tapped the table and said very formally:

"Here, I can tell you very clearly that Comrade He Anxia is pure and can withstand the test of the Party and the people."

Our relevant departments must thoroughly investigate such misleading whistleblower reports and those malicious individuals with ulterior motives.

They could slander me a while ago, and today they're slandering Comrade Anxia. Who will they slander tomorrow?

If this continues, how will we get our work done? Huh?

Everyone was shocked.

From Qi Tongwei's words, they understood that He Anxia's problem should not be too serious, and their previously unsettled hearts calmed down considerably.

That same day, Qi Tongwei's speech in his office was leaked out.

Since the mayor returned, everyone has been waiting for news, trying to glean some information from the details of Qi Tongwei's behavior.

These days, the news from the province and city is a mix of truth and falsehood, making it really hard to see clearly.

There are rumors that He Anxia is about to be placed under investigation and removed from office.

Some say that He Anxia will be exiled to a low-ranking government office.

Some say that He Anxia wanted to leave the Han River and return to Handong.

Some say He Anxia has a powerful background and has managed to stay calm.

There are different opinions.

This has caused considerable unrest among the cadres in Beishan.

The party secretary faction, in particular, is unsure whether to continue their close relationship or maintain distance and draw a clear line.

You must understand that in politics, one wrong step can drastically change your future.

Now that Qi Tongwei has spoken publicly, it must mean that there's nothing wrong with their municipal party secretary.

That evening, the little red building at Beishan No. 1 became lively again.
