A few days later, Ji Yang suddenly received a notification that he was to attend a meeting in the county.
After inquiring, he still didn’t know the details and could only rush to the county.
When Ji Yang arrived, the leaders of the county committee had mostly arrived.
"What happened?" Ji Yang asked Zhu Suying upon seeing her.
Shaking her head, Zhu Suying said, "Secretary Wen has arrived, and so has Minister Ning Wuyu."
Hearing this, Ji Yang knew that there must be some adjustments about to take place.
Indeed, once everyone had taken their seats in the small conference room, they saw Hu Guomin walking in with a few leaders, his face not looking very good. A young man about thirty years old entered with them.
Most of the gazes were directed at the young man.
Ji Yang also looked over. This was a fashionably dressed young man, with a slicked-back hairstyle and wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He carried an air of arrogance.
Having dealt with many affluent young men before, Ji Yang immediately recognized that this person must be someone significant.
After Wen Chengming sat down, Hu Guomin cleared his throat and said, "Let’s begin the meeting. Today we are here because the municipal committee has made a personnel adjustment decision, which Minister Ning will now announce."
Ji Yang glanced at Hu Guomin, noting his lackluster demeanor.
Ning Wuyu, looking striking after careful grooming and a pleasant voice, straightened her posture and said, "Comrades, as the team in Heshan County has adjusted, your work has been commendable, especially that of Qingyuan Village. In a short time, you have achieved significant results. To further strengthen our construction efforts, after research by the county committee, it has been decided to adjust the leadership team in Heshan County..."
After some preliminaries, she began reading the document.
It was then that everyone found out that Hu Guomin would no longer serve as the secretary of the Heshan County committee, the position would be filled by the young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses.
Everyone’s gaze instantly shifted to the young man.
Lu Guojun, parachuted in from a certain ministry in the Capital City.
Although no one spoke, the expressions varied greatly.
Ji Yang was also somewhat surprised, it was clearly a parachuting from some major family, but what exactly was going on?
Why hadn’t Chu Shuyuan mentioned this? He needed to ask her later.
After Ning Wuyu finished her announcement, Wen Chengming then spoke, addressing the minor adjustments to the Heshan County team, stating it was considering Heshan County’s potential for a significant leap forward. Hu Guomin’s previous work was commendable, and the municipal committee had other appointments planned for him. As for the newly arrived Comrade Lu Guojun, his extensive experience working in ministries, being familiar with many upper-level tasks, albeit lacking some grassroots experience, was noted. It was believed he could quickly adapt, and everyone was encouraged to actively support his work and to strive to enhance the work in Heshan County.
When Lu Guojun made his statement, he was quite arrogant, saying outright, "Comrades, I’ve come to understand the situation in Heshan County. To be honest, I am not very satisfied with your work. Qingyuan Village has the resources for rice wine, which has not been developed properly until now. It has to be said, this shows the incompetence of the Qingyuan Village team."
All eyes turned to Ji Yang, it was obvious he was being targeted. Which new leader would so directly criticize a particular leader? This new secretary clearly had some opinions about Ji Yang.
Ji Yang also felt a stir in his heart but with his temperament, he wouldn’t retort directly at the moment. However, he became vigilant, sensing the newcomer bore ill intentions.
Lu Guojun continued, "I heard before coming here that there’s autocracy in Qingyuan Village, and nepotism in appointments. After my arrival, this must change."
Ji Yang turned to Wen Chengming and said, "Secretary Wen, I don’t know what this new Secretary Lu means, but if he’s making reckless statements, I seriously doubt his capabilities!"
All eyes turned to Ji Yang again.
That was a direct counterattack. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ novｅlfire.net
Such an incident had never happened before.
The new secretary disliked Ji Yang, and Ji Yang had fought back. What was going on here?
Wen Chengming was also helpless, he hadn’t expected this sudden parachuting individual to cause trouble at their first meeting, he looked at Lu Guojun with internal complaints, this was not the image of a qualified official.
However, he knew Lu Guojun had significant backing, not someone he could provoke.
Of course, he also didn’t want to provoke Ji Yang, knowing he had his own powerful support.
After thinking for a moment, he had to speak, "In our work, we must investigate before we have the right to speak. Comrade Lu Guojun has just arrived, please conduct your research before making statements."
Lu Guojun snorted and said, "Isn’t the situation in Qingyuan Village clear? Ji Yang clearly has problems with his staff appointments." He was persistently focusing on the issue of appointments.
Lu Guojun added, "Also, I’ve heard that Comrade Ji Yang has problems with his financial dealings."
This time Wen Chengming also took offense, this was outright stirring trouble, he himself a respectable municipal secretary, and here Lu Guojun was showing no regard for his position.
