Chapter 426 An unexpected start

Xia Xiang really guessed it. Several members of the Standing Committee who had not made the same sound for a long time finally showed the powerful power of the same voice.

The Standing Committee was held at the suggestion of Ye Shisheng. The topic was to discuss the application of special funds for single cities, the issue of adding three comprehensive departments to the leading group, and the issue of submitting single cities to the provincial party committee and government to the sea railway. There were three issues in total, two of which were related to single cities. Single cities became the focus of attention in the Standing Committee for the first time.

After Ye Shisheng raised three issues, there was a sudden rumor of discussion in the venue. Ye Shisheng and Cui Xiang looked at each other and felt that they had achieved the effect he wanted. What he wanted was to throw out shocking issues at once to show his authority as the top leader and his confidence in controlling everything. Of course, this was also the idea that Cui Xiang had for him.

Originally, Ye Shisheng meant to hold a meeting to study before going to the Standing Committee, but Cui Xiang listed three reasons, which made Ye Shisheng change his mind.

First, the three issues are related to single cities. Among them, all the Standing Committee members of Tonghai Railway have been exposed to relevant information, so there is no need to hold meetings to study again, which is a waste of time. Second, the leadership group has added three comprehensive departments to strengthen the leadership of the provincial party committee over the leadership group. The meeting is also discussed with Fan Ruiheng. The provincial party committee is responsible for personnel power and adds a three comprehensive department. There is no need to hold two consecutive meetings to study, just submit it to the Standing Committee directly. Third, applying for special funds in a single city is not a big deal. At that time, it is mentioned casually at the Standing Committee and put it on for a period of time. No one will have any objections.

Ye Shisheng thought about it, although there were quite a few three issues at the same time, they were actually not a big deal. They should have passed it in one fell swoop at the Standing Committee. He believed Cui Xiang's words and did not notify Fan Ruiheng in advance to hold a meeting. It was just that before the Standing Committee was officially held, he and Fan Ruiheng met in the corridor and pointed out today's issue in a few words.

Fan Ruiheng just nodded after hearing this, without saying anything. Ye Shisheng thought Fan Ruiheng was his default attitude, so he didn't think much about it.

After Ye Shisheng reported the issue, he looked around the Standing Committee members present and said, "Please speak freely and express his opinions on the above three topics."

Cui Xiang looked like he was sitting firmly on Diaoyutai, looking at everyone in the standing committee members here one by one. Just like before, Ma Wanzheng lowered his head and said nothing, Song Chaodu was thinking, Chen Feng was worried, Xing Duan smiled faintly, Mei Shengping simply looked up at the ceiling, as if there were really flowers on the ceiling, and he was also very immersed in his eyes, completely looking out of the matter.

Cui Xiang sneered in his heart, okay, the more he is, the better he is. The more he is, the more he can show his influence. At this stage, we must make full use of Fan Ruiheng's conservatism and concessions, and then use the favorable situation of the various Standing Committee members who are distracted from forming alliances. Let Ye Shisheng slowly grasp the overall situation. As long as Ye Shisheng becomes stronger under his backstage, Ye Shisheng will basically form an unbreakable alliance with him. Because of Ye Shisheng's weak personality and soft ears, Cui Xiang is very sure to let Ye Shisheng obey his advice in everything.

By then, a provincial party secretary who seemed to be strong and secretly obeyed his construction in everything, stood up. No one dared to challenge the secretary's authority, who had originally swept the snow in front of the door.

Cui Xiang looked at Ma Xiao again with confidence, and was very satisfied with Ma Xiao's cooperation with his actions to suppress Song Chaodu's inspection news from not broadcasting. It turns out that there are many people and powerful people. Therefore, he felt extremely wise in the decision to get close to the Fu family. Not only did he not command a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and the Minister of Propaganda.

What Cui Xiang didn't expect was that Fan Ruiheng, who has always been low-key and liked to speak in the last words in everything, was the first to speak today, and his speech was also powerful.

Fan Ruiheng usually always has a calm face, but today he has a serious face and said with a tight face: "I don't think the problem of Tonghai Railway is a problem. The provincial government can report it directly to the Ministry of Transport. As an important steel production base in the country, Dangang is not only a problem of single cities, but also a problem of our entire Yan Province and a problem of the country. The Ministry of Transport will definitely treat it carefully and report it to the State Council." With a pause, his eyes started with Cui Xiang, swept over everyone present one by one. The governor's authority was fully revealed, which made people feel shocked. He realized that Governor Fan is the first deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, the governor of the government, and the legitimate second-in-command!

Cui Xiang was swept away by Fan Ruiheng's confident and majestic gaze, and was shocked for no reason. He thought about what was going on. Could Fan Ruiheng, who has always been low-key, stand clearly on the opposite side of Ye Shisheng today?

Fan Ruiheng did not disappoint Cui Xiang. He continued: "Single City has proposed the requirement to apply for special funds, it should immediately allocate funds. Other cities should not let other cities watch jokes about single cities, but also think that the provincial party committee and government have gone back on their word! When Single City and Bao City took the initiative to become pilot cities, the province not only praised it in a high-profile manner, but also proposed to set up special funds to cope with the unexpected situation of shortage of funds in the two cities. Now seeing that Single City has achieved a little success, it is when the province needs encouragement and support, but the province is also stumbling on publicity and losing strands in funds. Let me ask, what is the credibility of the provincial party committee and government? Other places are not just watching single cities jump into the pit themselves, but the province does not make a joke when it is most needed, but also watching the province's jokes that the province does not count on its words without prestige!"

Fan Ruiheng said passionate words with unprecedented momentum, like a huge rock thrown into the pool. After a loud "thump" sound, countless waves aroused.

Ma Wanzheng's sleepy expression suddenly woke up, his eyes slightly widened, showing a look of surprise and disbelief. However, Song Chaodu smiled slightly and looked at Ye Shisheng and Cui Xiang with a calm face.

Chen Feng was still the same, his expression had not changed much, but the pen in his hand subconsciously clicked on the paper, but his eyes couldn't help but look at Ye Shisheng.

Other members of the Standing Committee also looked surprised, some whispered, some looked angry, and some closed their eyes slightly, waiting for Ye Shisheng to fight back.

Ye Shisheng was a little excited. He did not expect that Fan Ruiheng, who had always taken a safe route and would rather give in than make a move, suddenly became full of energy, pointing out that the Provincial Party Committee intervened in administrative affairs and raised the matter to the level of being laughed at by others in the Provincial Party Committee without credibility.

He almost slapped the table!

However, Fan Ruiheng seemed not afraid of his anger and continued: "I think that if a single city applies for special funds, it should be allocated immediately without any objection. As for the leadership group to add three comprehensive departments, I don't think it is necessary at present. There are only two pilot cities, and the adjustment of industrial structure is initially achieved. It is hard to say whether there will be greater progress in the next step and whether it will fail. Not to mention anything else, when a single city needs help the most, the province not only has no help, but has suppressed the funds. When Baocheng needs publicity, there is no publicity report in the province. Comrades, are we supporting their policies or deliberately dragging them down? In this case, I don't think there is any need to add three comprehensive departments, which will only make the leadership group more and more bloated and will not help the actual work!"

Fan Ruiheng's words were sharp and the rebuttal was also sharp. Ye Shisheng's face turned pale, and Cui Xiang's face was also flushed. He never expected that the first person to jump out to oppose was Governor Fan, and Governor Fan's words were merciless and every sentence was heartbroken.

Too much deception! Cui Xiang was furious and tried to calm down his impulsive mood, and tried to slow down his speech as much as possible, saying: "Governor Fan, don't be excited, say something well..." Cui Xiang regretted it as soon as he said that under Fan Ruiheng's sudden attack, his words meant showing weakness and giving in.

But then he thought that Fan Ruiheng was the second-in-command after all. He was not as good as him in terms of rankings, and in terms of real power, he was much worse. Reasonable concessions were for better progress. Cui Xiang comforted himself and said: "Before going to the matter of applying for special funds in a single city and adding three comprehensive departments, Secretary Ye and I also had an exchange with him. In fact, Secretary Ye did not mean to suppress the funds of the city that did not approve the order, and the province was not short of this little money. Secretary Ye was also considering the overall situation, and he wanted to suppress it and delay it and then approve it. Because if the following one

If the application is approved immediately, the province will create an illusion for other cities and cities, believing that as long as you want, the province will allocate funds, and the province will have no prestige. The addition of the three comprehensive departments is reasonable. With the deepening of the work of the leading group and the large-scale promotion of the industrial structure adjustment of Shancheng and Baoshi, the leading group with only a dozen people obviously has insufficient staff. Moreover, Secretary Ye and I have the opinion that the second batch of pilot cities should be put on the agenda soon and everything should be prepared early, so it is very necessary to establish the three comprehensive departments."

Cui Xiang's explanation not only lacked strength, but also vaguely revealed the meaning of his alliance with Ye Shisheng, which was equivalent to raising the authority of the top leader to suppress Fan Ruiheng.

Everyone was waiting to see how Fan Ruiheng retorted. Before Fan Ruiheng could speak, Song Chaodu smiled softly and said, "Secretary Cui said that the province is not short of money. As the vice governor, why do I always feel that there are funding gaps everywhere? It seems that the government departments have never had enough funds."

Song Dynasty's words caused a burst of chuckling.

Ma Wanzheng also smiled: "It would be great if you really don't lack money. Shuiheng City applied for the restoration of historical monuments and submitted an application to the province for more than two years, but it has not been approved, but it is because of insufficient funds. I wonder if there is any basis for what Secretary Cui said that there is no shortage of money?"

The three members of the government team questioned Cui Xiang in turn. No matter how calm and calm Cui Xiang was, his face was flushed, and he said, "I, I'm just making an analogy..."

"Secretary Cui just said casually, who doesn't know that money will never be enough to spend? Don't just focus on a small matter." Ma Xiao jumped out to help Cui Xiang. Ma Xiao, 46, is from Northeast China. He is born with a burly figure, square face and thick eyebrows. His voice is full of energy and buzzing. "Since Governor Fan just pointed out the problems in publicity, I will explain that Yan Province has always been famous for its steady steps. Although Baoshi's joint venture has achieved some results, the current large amount of publicity will bring unnecessary pressure to the Baoshi Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, and will also bring immeasurable negative impact to Wanli Automobile Factory. Why do you say that? Because the joint venture is only the first step. Profits and expanding market share after the joint venture are the most important success, and the news worthy of big book."

"Will publicity bring negative impacts? Minister Ma has said it?" Qian Jinsong said with a smile, with a harmless smile on his face. "I won't mention the precedent of Yan Province's previous promotion as long as it introduces funds. I just talk about what major activities the ministries and commissions had when I served as the director of the Beijing ministries and commissions - please note that it was a major event, not a successful event - would invite a large number of news media to accompany them and require the news media to conduct publicity and reporting in a timely and comprehensive manner. Why? Because all ministries and commissions know in their hearts that whether the news media comes in many ways or not, whether the publicity and reporting are all-round, directly represent the meaning of the superior. The superior leaders recognize it, and publicity will be overwhelming. If the superior leaders are not satisfied, publicity will definitely not keep up with it... Minister Ma has been working in the publicity department before, and I must also be very clear that publicity is the direction. To be honest, I have worked in the Central Propaganda Department for a while before."

Ma Xiao suddenly felt that under Qian Jinsong's seemingly smiling smile, there was a cold steel knife hidden - today he had seen what a real knife hidden in a smile!

Ye Shisheng was even more shocked. He always thought that Qian Jinsong was very close to him, and he had always been known for his neutrality in Yan Province. He has always been a neutral faction that neither side offended. Why do he speak softly and hardly in his words today, and point directly at Ma Xiao indifferently?

After Qian Jinsong finished speaking, he still smiled and said, "The publicity is not the topic of today, so I won't mention it. Regarding the application for special funds in single cities, based on the principles of credibility and fairness, it should be approved. The leading group has added three comprehensive departments. Since Minister Ma has said that the achievements of Baoshi and single cities are not yet fully publicized at this stage, it is enough to prove that the work of the leading group is not so heavy and has enough staff, so there is no need to add another department. It just so happens that the savings are short of money, so it is a little bit, right?"

Qian Jinsong always speaks in a non-slow tone, and his smile never diminishes. He gives people a feeling of calmness and easy-goingness, but Qian Jinsong's words fell into Cui Xiang and Ma Xiao's ears, and they felt as if they were slapped in the face in person. Not only was it particularly loud, but it also hurts hotly.

Cui Xiang was even more furious, but was speechless by Qian Jinsong's words and could not think of a better word to refute Qian Jinsong. Because Qian Jinsong was indeed right, he directly attacked the contradictory parts of his words!

Cui Xiang's wishful thinking was that he wanted to use this Standing Committee to establish Ye Shisheng's authority, and at the same time show the power of him and his allies to achieve his goal of adding three comprehensive locations and completely installing his own people. His original intention was to use the publicity as a bargaining chip in exchange for the delayed allocation of special funds for a single city, which means that restrictions can be relaxed in the publicity in the future, but special funds for a single city must not be issued now. After his people enter the comprehensive group, they must consider the issue of allocating funds to show his authority and establish his prestige in the leadership group in one fell swoop, and then gradually gain the dominance.

Cui Xiang even thought that if Fan Ruiheng’s objection was not strong, he wanted to add another permanent deputy team leader, and he would also have to arrange his own people to take office, so as to increase control over the leadership group. He believed that with his political wisdom, using superficial concessions to exchange for actual benefits, he could definitely be approved in a messy Standing Committee. Besides, Secretary Ye has spoken, who dares to have an objection?

As long as Fan Ruiheng opposes blatantly and as long as the second-in-command does not challenge the authority of the top-in, other members of the Standing Committee will still give in front of the secretary. What he did not expect was that his Ruyi calculation was subjected to a fierce counterattack in the first round. It was Fan Ruiheng who unexpectedly made a loud voice of doubt that Cui Xiang felt powerless for the first time.

If only one person in the provincial party committee dares to challenge Ye Shisheng publicly, then only Fan Ruiheng is the top leader of the government, and his opinions directly represent the attitude of the provincial government. It can be said that they are extremely important. Ye Shisheng is the top leader and has a second-in-command who is in conflict, so he can only find ways to resolve the conflict rather than confrontation.

Politics is the product of compromise, especially if the conflict between the first and second leaders is made public, it depends on who has the most supporters. It is true that the secretary is the top leader, but if most of the Standing Committee members support the governor, the secretary will feel like he is restrained and the work will be difficult to carry out.

The secretary said that the era of one thing has passed, especially at the provincial level. There is no balanced political means or a layout that controls the overall situation. Behind each Standing Committee member is the support of the highest level, and the secretary's power is greatly restricted, and it cannot be a one-man show. Gao Chengsong was so strong back then, and with the support of senior officials in the middle and middle schools of Beijing, he looked like a one-handed person on the surface of Yan Province, but in fact, there were always different voices. He did not fully control the Standing Committee, and he relied on his strength to suppress the opposition.

The problem now is that Ye Shisheng is not a tough person at all, and he does not have the tough backstage like Gao Chengsong. What makes Cui Xiang even more worried is that the members of the Standing Committee who were originally in charge suddenly have a tendency to unite again. How can he not panic?

Even Qian Jinsong, who has always been the most neutral, suddenly stood up and stood clearly on Fan Ruiheng's side. What made Cui Xiang angry the most was that Qian Jinsong's ability to criticize other people's words was first-class, and directly completely cracked the strategies he had imagined, which was equivalent to his contradictory statements. Although Qian Jinsong's words were not sharp and his words were not fierce, his lethality was also a sharp hit.
