Chapter 804: Confrontation, no one can give in

Xia Xiang certainly knew the interests, but he was not scared and never retreated in the face of suppression. He waited for the applause from everyone to fall and said: "The comrades' attitude is very positive and their work is very enthusiastic, which inspired me. But there is one thing that everyone may not understand. Seeing that the Great Beijing Economic Circle is about to be put on the agenda, how does Langshi, the closest to the capital, position itself? Could it be that if you alienate the provincial party committee politically and attach the capital economically, you are willing to become a third-rate city?"

As soon as these words were said, Gu Xiangguo's face suddenly changed. Xia Xiang, he was too aggressive!

Xia Xiang did not deliberately oppose Gu Xiangguo. Gu Xiangguo is the top leader of the municipal government and has absolute authority in the government team. But as the executive vice mayor, he also has a great say. Gu Xiangguo not only did not give him enough respect, but also obviously had the intention to undermine him. He also joined forces with Tu Yun and several deputy mayors to make him deprive him of a normal order of speech in the government team, which was a bit too much.

There is no doubt that Gu Xiangguo and Oh Chen has a close cooperative relationship. There is no doubt that there is something unspeakable behind Tu Yun. Xia Xiang has inferred from Li Caiyuan some point. Yang Bin is a key line and a breakthrough. He is looking for the most suitable opportunity to ignite it. But while making a secret layout, his due status in the municipal government must also be strived for.

Otherwise, he has no authority in the government team, no one listens to his words, and it is impossible for him to carry out his work.

To win the battle behind the scenes, there must be no inch of the battles on the surface. The political voice is the basis, and without the huge halo brought by the power of the executive vice mayor, he wants to gain a firm foothold in Langshi, do practical things for the people, and gain the recognition of the people behind it, it is only a fantasy.

Since Gu Xiangguo wanted to suppress him everywhere, he couldn't raise his head, and he was a deputy, so he had to raise his head tenaciously and argue with Gu Xiangguo.

The world is great and the benefits are the greatest. The other party carried out the Ministry of Agriculture and promised it for profit. Xia Xiang raised the banner of the Great Capital Economic Circle and lured it for profit.

Gu Xiangguo glanced at Xia Xiang very majestic: "Comrade Xia Xiang, the positioning of Lang City is naturally a collective discussion and decision by the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government. Don't talk nonsense, pay attention to your identity when speaking!"

In a very stern tone, he wanted to scold Xia Xiang in public.

As soon as Gu Xiang finished speaking, among the five deputy mayors, headed by Shao Ding, at least three of them looked gloating, as if they were waiting to see Xia want to make a fool of themselves.

Xia Xiang was not angry at all, and there was a faint smile on his face: "Mayor Gu, Lang City's positioning is indeed a decision for the municipal party committee and government, but don't forget that the Great Beijing Economic Circle is an agreement signed between the provincial government and the capital. In the planning of the provincial government, Lang City's positioning must not be separated from the general direction of the provincial government!"

Xia Xiang's counterattack was quite powerful, which was equivalent to telling Gu Xiangguo clearly that he should not think that Lang City was high and the emperor was far away, and that everything could be decided by the municipal party committee and government. The Great Beijing Economic Circle is a reciprocal cooperation between Yan Province and Beijing. Lang City, as an ordinary prefecture-level city, is sorry, and is not qualified to bargain with the capital.

Moreover, the Great Beijing Economic Circle involves more than 13 cities and counties. The provincial government has a big game of chess to play, and Langshi is just one of them, not the head coach.

Gu Xiangguo's face changed, and Xia Xiang refuted it so much that he had nothing to say. The provincial party committee and government had overall overall arrangements. Can Langshi not obey the decisions of the provincial party committee and government? Just kidding, you can appropriately move closer to the capital in small matters, and the provincial party committee has to decide on major matters. Langshi is not Langshi in the capital.

Gu Xiangguo also knew that Xia would definitely have a mission if he wanted to airborne from Yan City. The provincial party committee had a long history of distrust and dissatisfaction with Lang City, but he had never made up his mind to undergo major surgery on Lang City. It was because the environment of Lang City was too complicated. Not only did the capital take root in politics, but Chen had a terrifying influence in secret. External surgery could not be cured, and the fortress could only be breached from the inside.

Xia Xiang is the vanguard.

That's why Gu Xiangguo tried his best to suppress Xia Xiang, but he didn't want Xia Xiang to be young, and his skills were sophisticated and unpredictable. It was such a tricky character.

"According to you, how do the province want to position the role of Lang City?" Gu Xiangguo suppressed his anger and wanted to come up with a difficult problem for Xia. "You have been in Yan City for the longest time and have close ties with the province. Understand the ideas of the provincial leaders, and point us in the direction first so that we can be mentally prepared."

"Hehe." Shao Ding laughed out loud, "That's right, Mayor Xia teaches us." There was no sarcasm in his tone.

Xia Xiang faced the strong control of Gu Xiangguo over the municipal government, but he still looked calm and said calmly: "In fact, the provincial leaders can guess a rough idea. As long as the respective advantages of the 13 cities and counties around the Beijing Economic Circle are listed, it is not difficult to draw a conclusion. With the geographical advantages of Lang City, Lang City is positioned in the following directions: First, vegetable baskets and agricultural tourism, second, elderly care, vacation, leisure, third, accept many low-value-added factories in Beijing, become the supporting city of Beijing, or the satellite city of Beijing, etc., focusing on service and leisure, build a new type of Lang City based in Yan Province and facing Beijing Tianjin."

Gu Xiangguo looked thoughtful and bowed his head without saying a word. Shao Ding looked surprised and couldn't speak. Several other deputy mayors whispered and whispered, and exchanged views on the ideas that Xia Xiang had just mentioned. They all agreed with and praised Xia Xiang's positioning of Langshi proposed.

The positioning is accurate and clear, which is in line with the current situation and long-term prospects of Lang City.

Even Gu Xiangguo had a prejudice against Xia Xiang, and had to admit that Xia Xiang did have a vision. His proposal not only included the parts he had discussed with Secretary Ai before, but also had many ideas that were very advanced and were in line with the current situation of Lang City, with almost no omissions. As an executive vice mayor who has been in office for less than a month, it is not easy to see Lang City so thoroughly.

Xia Xiang not only dealt with Chen Zhishi, but also a political official with insight and vision. Gu Xiangguo knew in his heart that the more talented and powerful Xia Xiang was, the more threatened his authority, and he had to suppress it.

After Tu Yun came back, he would discuss countermeasures carefully, further restrain Xia Xiang's work in the government team, distribute his work to several deputy mayors, and put him under vanishing!

Gu Xiangguo made up his mind, but on the surface he pretended to be interested, "Comrade Xia Xiang's idea does have unique insights, but the idea is just a vision, and it is just a long-term vision, and it is flashy. Besides, after the province sets the plan, maybe half a year or a year, the daylily will be cold. If the people have money and don't buy it for half a year, we should formulate relevant policies and have immediate benefits to reality, otherwise it will be a castle in the air. So I think at this stage, the pilot promotion of emerging agriculture by the Ministry of Agriculture can bring benefits to Langshi. Others such as vegetable gardens and agricultural tourism are enough to think about it now, and I'll leave it to the future..."

Gu Xiangguo said it lightly and used a half-joking tone. In fact, he was a satirized by Xia Xiang as being unrealistic, ambitious, and speaking beautifully, and has no practical value.

"The Ministry of Agriculture invested 30 million yuan to promote emerging agriculture. To put it bluntly, it is to promote genetic modification. It bought the food safety of the people of Lang City for 30 million yuan, and made the people of Lang City a guinea pig. The people of Lang City are really cheap. According to me, the Ministry of Agriculture does not take out 300 million yuan, so don't think about any pilot promotion in Lang City." Xia Xiang refuted Gu Xiangguo very bluntly.

Gu Xiangguo was very angry: "Comrade Xia Xiang, don't stand and talk without back pain. The investment of 30 million yuan is already quite large. Lang City's agricultural industry has been developing slowly. Although some investment has been introduced, the amount is very small. The 30 million yuan of the Ministry of Agriculture is already the largest agricultural investment in Lang City."

Xia Xiang smiled confidently: "Today I just had contact with Yuanjing Group. As a large group company that has made outstanding contributions to Yan City, Yuanjing is interested in coming to Lang City to invest in agricultural tourism. The initial plan is to invest 100 million yuan."

Shao Ding was sitting on the chair and leaning back hard, ready to stretch his back. As soon as Xia thought, he took off his strength and the chair quickly fell back. He almost made him fall down. He almost had a little bit of a moment to make his face and the table come into direct contact - he pressed the table with both hands before he did not fall down his front teeth. He looked at Xia Xiang in surprise, looking at him in disbelief.

Gu Xiangguo was also very surprised.

The Ministry of Agriculture promised it for profit. Xia Xiang not only tried his best to oppose it on the one hand, but also attracted huge investments, 100 million to beat 30 million. It is really a good move. Moreover, in the name of investing in agricultural tourism, it is clearly a pilot promotion of the Ministry of Agriculture on purpose.

Gu Xiangguo narrowed his eyes and felt a difficult heart. The 100 million yuan investment is indeed not small, and the prospects for agricultural tourism are indeed much broader than pilot promotion. However, the pilot promotion of the Ministry of Agriculture is not only a matter of investment, but also political factors must be taken into account.

On the one hand, it is really about the prospects of Lang City, and on the other hand, accepting the pilot promotion of the Ministry of Agriculture can bring huge political benefits to individuals. After thinking about it for less than half a minute, Gu Xiangguo made a decision: "When Mayor Tu comes back, he will study this matter in depth. Mayor Tu happened to go to the Ministry of Agriculture to negotiate cooperation projects. Perhaps she can also persuade the Ministry of Agriculture to increase investment. The pilot promotion of the Ministry of Agriculture is of demonstration significance across the country, and it cannot be simply viewed as project investment. My opinion is to comprehensively consider the two factors of politics and economy."

Gu Xiangguo's attitude was not as expected by Xia Xiang. When politicians consider the problem, they cannot say that there is no such thing when putting the interests of the people first, but they can only say that there is little. If Gu Xiangguo was indeed devoted to the interests of the people, they would not have ignored the harm of genetically modified products, and now they cannot say that the 100 million investment of Yuanwang Group is not allowed.

Tu Yun went to the Ministry of Agriculture in Beijing, and Xia Xiang knew what she was doing. When she went to the Ministry of Agriculture, she must have been to find a project. After all, it was also a friendly attitude made by the Ministry of Agriculture to come to Lang City to invest, which showed Lang City's positive attitude.

Another point is that Tu Yun also went home to reunite with her husband. Her husband Dai Lumao also worked in the Ministry of Agriculture, but was not responsible for the genetically modified project. I heard that he was the deputy director of the Marketing Department and the deputy director, and enjoyed the treatment of the main department.

Li Caiyuan and Tang Hua told Xia Xiang about Dai Lumao's situation.

Now we cannot show weakness, we must establish an image of not giving in. Xia Xiang put forward his opinion dissatisfiedly: "Mayor Gu, the agriculture department is under my jurisdiction, but Mayor Tu, on behalf of the municipal government, went to the Ministry of Agriculture to contact the Ministry of Agriculture. Is it too long to stretch his hands? I express strong dissatisfaction!"

Xia Xiang's words were reasonable, and Gu Xiangguo hurriedly explained: "Comrade Tu Yun's situation is a bit special. Her husband works in the Ministry of Agriculture. She can play the favor cards better. You should consider the problem from the perspective of the overall situation and not act irritably."

Xia Xiangcai was not acting irritably, he mentioned this on purpose: "When it comes to playing favor cards, I happen to know a director of the Ministry of Agriculture. I will also go to the Ministry of Agriculture to run for relationships tomorrow. Mayor Gu, do you have any objections?"

Gu Xiangguo was forced to have no way out by Xia Xiang. Tu Yun went there. It was natural for Xia to go there, so he had to agree: "Yes, but you must pay attention to sticking to the correct position." He could only say this. Xia Xiang tried every means to prevent the pilot promotion from within the Ministry of Agriculture, and he could not find a reason to refuse. Of course, he did not believe in this energy. Because he knew very well how powerful the backend supporting GMO was.

Xia Xiang saw Gu Xiangguo and smiled: "I will leave for the Ministry of Agriculture early tomorrow morning, and just take the initiative to contact Yuanjing Group and have an in-depth exchange of views on the issue of investing in agricultural tourism. When the opportunity is right, I will propose to Secretary Ai and submit it to the Standing Committee for discussion."

Gu Xiangguo was stunned on the spot. Xia Xiang was reluctant to give in and did not give in. He was determined to sing the opposite tune with him to the end. He walked away with displeasure: "Comrade Xia Xiang, I hope you don't act irritably, and don't go all the way to the dark!"

Xia Xiang did not accept Gu Xiangguo's words, but instead rushed to the deputy mayors present and smiled: "I hope we will not be sinners to the people of Lang City. There is no way to go in the world." After that, he left without caring about everyone's surprise.

The deputy mayors all knew that the discord within the government team had become public and fierce.

Shao Ding looked at Xia Xiang's back as he was leaving, his eyes flashing, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

In the afternoon, Xia Xiang had a close encounter with Liu Yilin and exchanged views on the pilot promotion of the Ministry of Agriculture. Liu Yilin also had a completely negative attitude towards genetic modification, but she was not optimistic about the prospects, because since Chen's intervention is extremely likely to be approved by the Standing Committee.

"Secretary Ai will probably nod his support in the end. The pilot promotion of the Ministry of Agriculture has been difficult to intervene from all aspects. My suggestion is that you should stop when it is better and not be too passive." Liu Yilin didn't understand Xia Xiang's recent strength, but she also secretly admired Xia Xiang's skills, and she actually won a round in the fight with Oh Chen.

However, there were more speculations about the relationship between Xia Xiang and Song Yifan, but they did not ask.

As two female officials in the core power level of Lang City, Liu Yilin and Tu Yun have very different personalities. Compared with Tu Yun's strength, she acts low-key and has a gentle style, which is a bit more scheming than Tu Yun.

In Xia Xiang's opinion, Liu Yilin's political journey is wider than Tu Yun. But he does not necessarily agree with Liu Yilin's personality.

"If you do something, you will not do something. Minister Liu, some principles cannot be shaken. If a country wants to stand tall among the nations of the world, it must have a bottom line, and the same is true for being a human being. If a country has no bottom line and being a human being without principles, it is a sad thing."

Seeing that Xia Xiang could not convince her, Liu Yilin shook her head: "Forget it, anyway, if I go to the Standing Committee to discuss, I will be consistent with you. No matter how much support I support, I can do nothing."

Xia Xiang expressed his gratitude to Liu Yilin for her support: "I have time to invite you to dinner."

Liu Yilin chuckled: "It's so realistic. If I object to your position, don't say that I'll turn against you after treating me to a meal?" Her look of joy and anger was really attractive.

Xia Xiang laughed: "That won't be true, but then again, Minister Liu is both the Minister of Organization and a Beauty. There are not a thousand or eight hundred people in Lang City. It is my honor to be able to invite you."

Liu Yilin was praised by Xia Xiang, blushed and looked at Xia Xiang: "Are you younger than me, dare to tease your sister?"

...

In the evening, Xia Xiang and Lian Ruohan called, saying that he would go to Beijing tomorrow. In fact, Xia Xiang had nothing to do with the Ministry of Agriculture, but it was not difficult to get to know one or two directors. He went to the Ministry of Agriculture not for the sake of genetic modification, but to find out the direction of the wind and see how determined the Ministry of Agriculture is to pilot the promotion in Lang City.

At the same time, he also took Song Yifan back to school. Song Yifan was lazy and refused to leave. Xia wanted to spoil her again, and knew that she could not relax her studies.

Xia Xiang discussed with Lian Ruohan in advance about the investment in agricultural tourism of Vision Group, and Lian Ruohan also agreed. She believed in Xia Xiang's vision, and in her opinion, Vioyan Group is equivalent to Xia Xiang's arm. When Xia Xiang needs it, she will hit wherever she points.

When she was sleeping at night, Song Yifan made another mistake. For two days, she had been sleeping in Xia Xiang's bed, but she didn't know why she was conscientious tonight. She thought that Xia Xiang was not good at sleeping on the sofa, so she wanted to change it with Xia Xiang. Xia Xiang disagreed, so she acted coquettishly and pretended to be crying, and Xia Xiang had to agree.

When he was sleeping until midnight, he was just sweet, he heard an unusual movement from the living room. Xia Xiang hurriedly came out and laughed silently. Song Yifan not only wore underwear and exposed, but also fell to the ground. Fortunately, there was a carpet on the ground and the sofa was not high, so he did not hurt. What made him even more ridiculous was that Song Yifan held the pillow and tilted his thighs in a very indecent position, with his flesh lying on his side, lying on the carpet on his side, and he didn't wake up!

Xia Xiang picked her up and put her on the bed, and he slept on the sofa again.

The next morning, she was awakened by Song Yifan's scream. She came out of the bedroom, crossed her waist, and said fiercely to Xia Xiang: "Brother Xia, you must have molested me last night. Look, my thighs are blue and my waist hurts very much. You... are so bullying."
