Chapter 529 One-vote veto

Chapter 529 One Voting Right

As soon as Chen Feng finished speaking, Sun Aiyong said with shame: "I spoke in the end, and wanted to listen to everyone's opinions from many sources so that I could make a fairer judgment. Thank you Secretary Chen for your reminder. After careful comparison, I concluded that Comrade Bai Zhanmo is more suitable to serve as the secretary of the district party committee. As for Comrade Xia Xiang, you can arrange other important positions, such as the district mayor. I think Comrade Zhou Libo is not steady enough and is not suitable to serve as the district mayor."

Chen Feng was stunned for a moment, and for a moment he felt a hint of unspeakable bitterness in his heart.

Actually...losed? How could it be possible? How could the dignified member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee lose so badly that he couldn't even control the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, and he also lost to the hands of his own people who he thought was close to?

Why is it difficult to control? How could the Standing Committee accidentally lose control? It was just the appointment of the secretary of the district party committee, which actually led to more than half of the Standing Committee members joining together to oppose the nomination of the secretary and mayor. Who can believe it?

Yes, who would believe that the secretary and the mayor nodded will be rejected by the Standing Committee! Under the current political system, it is almost impossible to happen.

But the impossible has happened, because Wang Yanlong also raised an objection: "Well, after comprehensive consideration, I also feel that Comrade Xia Xiang has been forced to serve as secretary. Perhaps as Comrade Aiyong said, the position of the district mayor is more suitable for Comrade Xia Xiang."

Chen Feng no longer felt anything about the suggestions of the two. He just felt blood surging upwards and felt weightless. After many years, he had no impulse or anger. He was tricked by someone at the Standing Committee today. He still doesn't know who the person behind the scenes is? Whether it is Fu Xianfeng or whether he can't get rid of the Fu family, he is now suffering the biggest defeat in his life!

Not only Chen Feng's face was extremely bad, Hu Zengzhou also looked angry. He always looked gentle and calm, but today he lost his composure in public for the first time and even slapped the table.

Hu Zengzhou slapped the table and said angrily: "Comrades, no matter what reason you are against Comrade Xia Xiang and against the joint nomination of Secretary Chen and me, I would like to solemnly declare to everyone, a crucial point, what is the reason why the 10 billion investment promised by Dacai Group has not been in place for a long time? It is because Dacai Group's investment is related to whether Comrade Xia Xiang serves as the district party secretary! After my speech, everyone will consider the importance of it yourself!"

As soon as Hu Zengzhou finished speaking, there was a sudden rumor of discussion at the venue. Even Fu Xianfeng's face changed and he looked at Hu Zengzhou half-believingly and half-doubtedly.

However, after the discussion, no one took the initiative to speak and withdraw his previous opinions. Sun Aiyong returned to Yongyi, Chen Yulong looked at each other with a look of embarrassment. The few people looked at each other for a long time, shook their heads and lowered their heads without saying a word.

Chen Feng's anger finally burst out uncontrollably. He slapped the table: "About the appointment of comrades Xia Xiang and Bai Zhanmo, let's put aside the discussion first, and wait until the time is ripe, and then go to the Standing Committee to discuss again! The meeting will be discontinued!"

Fu Xianfeng stood up in surprise and stared at Chen Feng with wide eyes. Chen Feng looked at him without fear and asked: "Why, what else do Comrade Pioneer have to say?"

Fu Xianfeng never expected that Chen Feng would use the veto power at the last moment!

Chen Feng is strong on the surface, but he is politically sleek, and his behavior is sometimes exaggerated, but he is never out of line. It can be said that he shows an extraordinary side everywhere. Fu Xianfeng believed that Chen Feng had only considered himself to fail and did not dare to easily use the veto power, because although the veto power is the secretary's greatest power, the greatest power is often just a symbolic role, a killer weapon, and only a threatening role. Just like the nuclear weapons of superpowers, the greatest power is on the launch frame, rather than really projecting atomic bombs everywhere.

Chen Feng was actually angry and used a veto power, which made Fu Xianfeng both startled and angry. What was shocked was that Chen Feng was also inappropriate, and what was angry was that the good situation was ruined. After a veto, it was equivalent to the fact that the Standing Committee did not form a resolution today, and the appointment against Bai Zhanmo was not passed!

Fu Xianfeng also said angrily: "Secretary Chen, don't override your personal authority over the Standing Committee! Respect the collective decisions of the Standing Committee!"

Chen Feng responded tit-for-tat: "Comrade Pioneer should not act irritated. Today's Standing Committee was not successful because many people don't know whether Comrade Xia Xiang serves as the district party secretary will have a huge impact on the future development of Xia Ma District. The decision to link investment with whether Xia Ma Xiang serves as the secretary force us to engage in caution. Of course, if any comrade can convince Da Ma Group or find a 10 billion investment from elsewhere, today's resolution will be passed... I am also considering the overall situation and the prospects of the Xia Ma District.

, How can I say that I do not respect the collective decision? As a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, I must not only be responsible to the millions of people in Yan City, but also to the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government. Secretary Ye is also very concerned about the candidates in Xiama District. He also agrees with Comrade Xia Xiang to preside over the overall work of Xiama District. If the Standing Committee passed the appointment of Comrade Bai Zhanmo today, and thus lost the 10 billion investment of Dacai Group, who can bear this responsibility? If Secretary Ye is not satisfied with our work, who will take the initiative to take the responsibility?"

Chen Feng said a series of questions in one breath, which made Fu Xianfeng breathless. The first time he faced Chen Ming faced him head-on, and the first time he saw Chen Feng's strong and domineering side, he was speechless for a moment and could not answer the words.

Yes, Chen Feng had extremely sufficient reasons. No one knew that Dacai Group would link investment with Xia Xiang's future. This was too unexpected. But it didn't matter if it was unexpected. After Fu Xianfeng calmed down, he felt funny about his impulse just now. Regardless of his 10 billion yuan of funds and Ye Shisheng's concern, he was not coming forward to rectify Xia Xiang, and the whole thing had nothing to do with him. Even if he suspected it, there was no real evidence, so he could just guess it.

At the same time, Fu Xianfeng was complacent that the reason Chen Feng just mentioned was not worth mentioning in the eyes of those who wanted to deal with Xia Xiang. In his opinion, no reason could stop him from wanting to win Xia Xiang.

Fu Xianfeng suppressed his dissatisfaction and anger, took a step back, and said, "Secretary Chen is right, I am acting intently. I support Secretary Chen's decision." But he thought to himself, the matter is far from over. Chen Feng, I see when you can stand firm and give in. When you see the real family power, you will understand that officials from grassroots classes have natural disadvantages compared to family power.

If it is put on hold, it will be the greatest victory as Xia Xiang does not get what he wants. As for the next step of convening a discussion at the Standing Committee, things will probably be even less than Chen Feng can control.

Chen Feng snorted coldly, ignored Fu Xianfeng, left the people in the room, and left.

Chen Feng’s attack today is not entirely because he cannot suppress his anger, but because he performed both truthfully and falsely, using today’s loss of control of the Standing Committee to hide his inner dissatisfaction and uneasiness.

At the same time, it is also to shake the tiger. He warns all the Standing Committee members not to try to challenge the secretary's authority. He is not an ordinary secretary of the municipal party committee, he is also a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and a provincial leader!

However, Chen Feng did feel panic in his heart, because no matter who he was, when he suddenly faced the challenge of authority and he didn't even know who his opponent was, he was always helpless and panicked. Chen Feng had been in Yan City for many years and had always regarded Yan City as his territory. His prestige and authority were unquestionable. However, suddenly, because of Xia Xiang's appointment issue, more than half of the Standing Committee members ignored his hints and openly opposed Xia Xiang's nomination, which was simply a great humiliation.

He and Hu Zengzhou joined forces without authority and influence to convince the Standing Committee members. It has to be said that he has become cold all over. The key factor that ultimately prompted him to take political risks and use a veto power is that with Fu Xianfeng standing by, more than half of the Standing Committee members can speak in a uniform voice. If Fu Xianfeng takes the lead, wouldn’t it mean that Fu Xianfeng has become the actual top leader of Yan City, and his dignified real municipal party secretary will be underestimated?

It was so terrible and so sad. Chen Feng couldn't help but sneer in his heart, and then made a decision to stifle this sign in the bud no matter how. Other secretaries may be worried about political consequences and dare not easily use a veto, and he is also worried about bad consequences. However, he is still a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and has enough voice in the Provincial Party Committee, so it's nothing to use a veto at the occasional time.

What you want is the effect that the authority of the top leader cannot be violated.

Chen Feng did not only make such a move because Xia Xiang failed to pass the appointment. Xia Xiang was denied on one hand, and the most important thing is that Xia Xiang's appointment is related to his authority, his face and his dignity! It is also to show Hu Zengzhou that Chen Feng is responsible and trustworthy at critical moments.

Because Chen Feng saw expectations in Hu Zengzhou's eyes at that time, he understood that Hu Zengzhou was also very angry at the out-of-control Standing Committee and strongly hoped that he would veto it.

Chen Feng returned to the office and said to his secretary Han Li with anger that he was still angry and said, "No one will come, I want to take a break."

Han Li took over as secretary since Jiang Tian. He is not tall and conservative. His biggest advantage is that he acts according to the rules. Chen Feng cannot say he likes him, but he cannot say he is bored, and he cannot reach the same level of trust as Jiang Tian. But he can't find a better candidate for a while, so he has never changed.

As a recorder, Han Li participated in the discussions at the Standing Committee today. He also knew that Chen Feng was in a very bad mood now, so he hurriedly agreed to close the door for Chen Feng and waited outside. As soon as he sat down, he saw Hu Zengzhou pushing the door in. Mayor Hu, who was usually kind, also looked angry, and nodded slightly at him and asked, "Secretary Chen is here?"

"In..." Han Li wanted to say that Secretary Chen had rested, but Hu Zengzhou didn't give him a chance to speak at all, and broke into the inner room directly.

Han Li shook his head. He dared to stop others' words. Even if Mayor Hu is not brave enough, he also knows that Mayor Hu is not happy today, so he is asking for trouble if he stops him.

Hu Zengzhou didn't knock on the door, but went straight to Chen Feng's inner office. Seeing Chen Feng leaning against the chair, with a thoughtful expression on his face...

To be honest, Hu Zengzhou's anger today is not less than Chen Feng's. He just didn't get angry because Chen Feng's veto power was first, so he would not say anything on the spot, otherwise he would seem to follow Chen Feng too far.

Today's scene is also the first time Hu Zengzhou has seen it since he entered politics!

There are also things that the Standing Committee is uncontrolled, but in Hu Zengzhou's experience, I have only heard of it but not. I didn't expect that I saw such an abnormal scene for the first time today. Not only did everyone go against the will of the secretary, but he didn't even give him the face of the mayor. It was equivalent to more than half of the Standing Committee members joining forces to oppose the decision of the secretary and the mayor, which is intolerable. He also believed that since he was the mayor of Yan City, he has a gentle governance style, tolerant treatment, and does not take full control of power, nor is he arbitrary. They are better, can he really be bullied as the mayor?

Hu Zengzhou came to Chen Feng to discuss today's emergencies. The changes at the Standing Committee were said to be a coincidence, and to the big ones, it was a political event, and it was not careless. It was related to his and Chen Feng's prestige in Yan City and should not be taken lightly.

When Chen Feng saw Hu Zengzhou coming in, he nodded slightly: "Zengzhou is here..." There was no further text and he fell into deep thought.

Hu Zengzhou did not disturb Chen Feng, and sat down gently, then quietly looked out the window. Outside the window, it was already lush. Yan City in mid-July has entered the mid-summer season. The weather is getting hotter, the green shade is getting thicker, and the pedestrians are walking hurried.

Looking out from Chen Feng's office, you can see most of the outline of Yan City. Looking north, you can cross the tallest Tianhai Building, and beneath the crowd of buildings, there is a busy scene of the horse.

Xiama District is no more than 10 kilometers away from the municipal party committee, but now in Hu Zengzhou's mind, there is a sudden distance between thousands of miles. Any mayor wants the city's administrative plans, investments, and projects to be in his own hands, and any secretary wants various personnel appointments, officials from key departments, and ideological construction of the city. Unfortunately, Xiama District is really a touchstone, and even the joint efforts of the secretary and the mayor have failed to stop more than half of the Standing Committee members from opposing.

What Hu Zengzhou didn't understand was whether more than half of the Standing Committee members opposed Xia Xiang himself or his joint efforts against him and Chen Feng?

After Chen Feng was silent for a while, the first sentence he said was the same as what Hu Zengzhou thought just now: "Zengzhou, are they targeting us today, or Xia Xiang?"

Hu Zengzhou hesitated and didn't know how to answer.

Regarding Xia Xiang, it is probably not that Xia Xiang has not had such a great influence yet, and he has no holiday with them, so he cannot join forces with half of the Standing Committee members to deal with it. It seems that there is no need to target him and Chen Feng, because he and Chen Feng are not the first and second leaders who work together to suppress others everywhere. Although Chen Feng is strong, he has always taken good care of other people's emotions on the scene. In his impression, Chen Feng did not forcefully oppress others with the authority of the secretary.

He himself has always been known for his gentleness and rarely does things that are difficult for others.

Why did this happen suddenly? Hu Zengzhou was worried that the matter would reach the provincial party committee soon, and maybe a call to ask questions would come in a while.

He was stunned for a moment and said hesitantly: "The incident happened suddenly today. At present, I still can't see through the situation. I don't know why this situation suddenly happened. If it is unlikely to target Xia Xiang personally. There is no need to target us. If Fu Xianfeng is behind the scenes, it is unlikely that he will ask the highest person of the Fu family to come forward, it depends on whether it is in line with the long-term political interests. As long as Fu Xianfeng still wants to develop in Yan City, he will not be able to do such a thing without political wisdom..."

"You are right, Zengzhou, this is also something I can't understand. At first, I suspected that Fu Xianfeng was the behind-the-scenes driver. I just calmed down and thought about it, but it was unlikely. If Fu Xianfeng wants to make a difference in Yan City, he would not and could not take risks. Besides, a district party secretary of the Xiama District is not worth mobilizing and making trouble. There must be other unknown reasons for this matter, which is really strange."

The two of them discussed for a long time, but still couldn't get the point. Finally, they decided to take measures to defeat each one in order to maintain the authority of the secretary and mayor. They would talk to the opposing standing committee members, do their work, find problems, and try to make everyone change their minds. They would pass it in one fell swoop at the next Standing Committee meeting.

In any case, whether Xia Xiang's appointment was approved was not only related to Xia Xiang's future, but also had a great relationship with the prestige and prestige of their first and second leaders.

Hu Zengzhou left Chen Feng's office and just sat down after he went back. When he was thinking about who to talk to first, the phone on the table suddenly rang.

It is a dedicated line that goes directly to the capital, a dedicated line that will not ring unless it is a major event... Hu Zengzhou's heart suddenly raised, hurriedly picked up the phone, stood up, and said respectfully: "Hello, Chief..."

"Zengzhou, there is one thing you must pay attention to, it may be related to your personal interests, and you should not be careless!" The chief's voice was short and powerful. Just like his character, he didn't talk much, but he often hit the nail on the head.

Hu Zengzhou's heart was pounding. Although he was already the mayor of Yan City and a high-ranking deputy provincial cadre, he was still nervous when facing a person with a word. It was precisely because of the chief's words that he had stepped from the position of Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee to become the mayor of Yan City, taking a key leap from the position of the chief department to the deputy province.
