Ji Mingyuan said: "It should be said that many people have seen the ulterior motives of some people. A large group of veteran cadres wrote letters to the central government, opposing the current arrangements for you. So, they are under greater pressure now than us. I believe that things will turn around in no time. A celebrity said it well, winter is here, will spring be far away?"

Chang Ning picked up the teacup and took a few sips, shook his head and said, "I don't care. I can even give up even if I break the jar. But Brother Mingyuan, you have to cheer up. You can't account for the most in the new leadership team."

"Isn't it just for this? Please help me analyze it." Ji Mingyuan still looked at Chang Ning with a smile and said slowly, "I came to Zhijiang to work, but I'm single-handed. Who else can I borrow besides you, brother?"

Chang Ning laughed happily, "Oh, of course I have no problem, but don't put all your hope on me."

"It's better than me, a newcomer."

Chang Ning nodded, "Maybe, I have three votes, I, Executive Governor Cui Hongri, and Fang Tianzheng, the United Front Work Minister of the Provincial Party Committee, you have two votes, you and Xie Hui, Secretary-General and Director of the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee, are Wang Qunji's favorite disciples and will support you unconditionally. You and I will put a piece of it, only five-thirds."

"Then, what about Fang Hongjun, Secretary of the Ningzhou Municipal Party Committee,? He is your close comrade-in-arms." Ji Mingyuan said with a smile.

Chang Ning smiled slightly, "Frankly speaking, I'm better fit with him."

Ji Mingyuan knew what Chang Ning meant, and he was asking himself about his relationship with Fang Hongjun, "Although I don't have much contact with Fang Hongjun, I have some interactions with Zhou Yongting, the leader of Fang Hongjun."

Chang Ning understood, "Then there will be six votes."

"But it's still not enough." Ji Mingyuan sighed.

A brief silence.

Both of them don’t understand tea ceremony, they can’t taste it, but only drink it. They look at each other, as if they want to read the mystery deep in their hearts from each other’s eyes.

Brothers and friends, the meaning of these words has long surpassed their original meaning as the times develop.

Because there is another saying, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and at this moment, it suddenly emerged in the minds of the two people.

Brothers and friends can sometimes be used to sell.

The former "Four Heroes" were Ji Mingyuan, Chang Ning, Liu Zhongxian, Liangshan, and the third elder Fang Jincheng of the Fang family, and Gao Jianlong, the son of the Gao family, were known as the six "monarchs". Now, they suddenly put the two "monarchs" together against common sense, and they must have a very deep intention.

Distance is an effective way to maintain respect. It is difficult for two people who are close to each other to maintain sufficient respect, because if you know each other too well, respect will become a kind of hypocrisy.

"Brother Mingyuan, you still have a hand?" Chang Ning began to test.

Ji Mingyuan smiled honestly, "How can I see it?"

Without gold, steel and diamonds, without taking on porcelain work, and without enough confidence and strength, would Ji Mingyuan dare to come to Zhijiang? Relying on brothers and friends? Ji Mingyuan is not that kind of person.

Chang Ning knew that he shouldn't ask, but as soon as he said that, he regretted it.

Can't tell the truth.

Any truth is enough to destroy a person's political life. When facing a complex situation, whether it is a villain or a gentleman with a bright future, the first thing that comes to mind is to protect himself. It is not easy to be silent, so how dare you say something bad?

What's more, even if you say no, not only will you not save the person who is hit, but you will be even more angry and will also be punished with aggravated punishment.

For this reason, sacrificing the sympathy and justice caused by the matter and sacrificing the official position you have achieved through your life's struggle is of course not worth it for power fans and not worthy of politicians. Therefore, for people in the officialdom, justice and power conflict are eternal.

A power-centered official society has led to two terrible results. One is that the society lacks automatic devices and slides all the way to the abyss. The other is that it creates an unreal society where you cannot survive without lying and true feelings are the most scarce.

"Why don't you say it?" Ji Mingyuan handed a cigarette to Chang Ning.

"Ah, I'm wondering how I can change my role."

Chang Ning smiled and began his instinctive self-protection, changing the topic.

Ji Mingyuan also smiled, "Anyway, in the future, I will leave it to you for the party affairs."

Chang Ning shook his hand repeatedly, "Don't, I've never cared about this before, so don't make things difficult for me."

"Why, do you want to give up?"

Chang Ning lit a cigarette, took a few sips and said, "It's not enough to give up, but I really don't understand the party affairs. If I don't know, I will pretend to understand, something will happen. Then I will cause you, the squad leader."

Ji Mingyuan refused to comment, "I don't think so. In my impression, you are not Xiao Chang who used to be a train."

When Chang Ning heard this, he felt cold. Is Ji Mingyuan's words reminding or warning? Why is it so uncomfortable to hear it?

"Haha, Brother Mingyuan, I'll express my opinion here. No matter what, I'm definitely fine."

Ji Mingyuan suddenly changed the topic and talked about other things.

"Xiao Chang, I heard that your Fan Group Co., Ltd. will reduce its investment in Hucheng by 30% next year. What's going on?"

Chang Ning shook his head and said, "I don't know much about the specific reason. If I ask me to tell you, there is one reason I can't escape."

“What’s the reason?”

"Hucheng is the capital of Zhijiang Province and is famous all over the world for its scenery. Its current positioning is tourism, leisure and commercial cities, and projects that attract investment from abroad are also related to the commercial service industry. Fan Group Co., Ltd. is mainly based on industry, so both sides may not match the number."

"Well, there is some truth." Ji Mingyuan fell into deep thought.

The atmosphere in the tea room was a bit cold, similar to the climate outside. Fortunately, Ji Mingyuan's mobile phone rang in time.

After answering the phone, Ji Mingyuan stood up, "Xiao Chang, I'm sorry, my wife arrived by train, I have to pick her up."

"Haha, model husband, please." Chang Ning smiled and stood up to see him off.

"Let's talk back."

Shaking hands and saying goodbye, Ji Mingyuan got in the car and left.

Standing in the snow, Chang Ning looked at the car that was leaving for a long time.

Secretary Fang Tongxun came over, "Leader, do you feel like it doesn't seem to be very harmonious."

"Did you see it?"

"Um."

Chang Ning asked lightly: "Do you know why?"

"I think you must have neglected something."

"Oh, just say something."

Fang Tongxun said: "At the Fifth Plenary Session of the Central Committee at the end of last year, you should still remember the by-election of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China?"

Chang Ning let out a oh, smiled self-deprecatingly, and reached out to pat his forehead.
Chapter completed!
