Reborn 92's Business Tycoon - Chapter 612: The New Official Takes Office
Chapter 612: Chapter 612: The New Official Takes Office
The day Huang Jingping took Wang Ganqing to the capital, it so happened, and also not happened, that some leaders of the capital city government and the university happened to accompany the government leaders on an inspection tour of the science and technology park.
And as the most presentable company in the science and technology park at this time, Jiasheng Auto Network, naturally was the focus of the leaders’ inspection.
Feng Yiping had a casual acquaintance with the leaders and was also the founder of Jiasheng, so he was named by the school and park leaders to receive them.
When Wang Ganqing and Huang Jingping arrived at the science park, their building had already been sealed off. It was only after Cui Yunling came down with a member of staff to negotiate that the guards let them in.
As an official who wants to continue to climb the ladder, Wang Ganqing was very interested in such a lively scene, even though he couldn’t get close enough to be of any use to the leaders.
However, Wang Ganqing, who was separated from the others by the security guards, was still undiminished in his interest.
He watched Feng Yiping from afar, talking eloquently while sandwiched between a large group of senior cadres. The leaders stopped from time to time, listening to him with interest, and even cooperated by letting the accompanying reporters take photos for keepsake. He suddenly felt that there was really a world of difference between himself and this young man, who he had not previously given a second thought to.
At the end of the inspection, Wang Ganqing saw that Feng Yiping was at the front of all the business leaders in the park. The leaders shook his hand one by one, and several of them even patted him on the shoulder and said something encouraging, which made him feel envious.
However, he could only feel envious for a moment, thinking that even his old leader, County Magistrate Zhao, would hardly receive such treatment.
This time, he had come with the intention of acting like an elder, but after seeing this scene, he immediately felt that he was even shorter than Feng Yiping.
‘Sorry,’ Feng Yiping said politely, ‘I was too rude,’
‘Not at all,’ said Wang Ganqing, looking at Feng Yiping’s spacious and modern office and the photo of him and the Prime Minister on the desk. Sitting there, he felt a little overwhelmed. ‘I know you’re busy, so I won’t keep you long. I’ve come to apologise to you in person. I haven’t done a very good job in many areas, but as long as you support me, I will definitely cooperate with your company in the future and do a good job of building the industrial park,’
‘Mayor, you’re too kind,’ Feng Yiping said with a smile. “Cai Lei and my uncle both said that you’ve helped a lot with the two factories in the town, and I should thank you,’
‘You don’t need to thank me, that’s all I should do,” Wang Ganqing liked hearing this, and he thought that Feng Yiping really didn’t understand his shady dealings. ‘It’s just that, Yiping, because your investment this time is so big, a lot of people are eyeing this position. Working with people you don’t know well, you should probably not work with me.
I know you don’t want to leave.
‘Mayor, I don’t understand what you’re saying. How can a small businessman like me manage these things?’
‘I don’t have any other requests, really.’
He was really tired of playing along with him. As it happened, the mentor happened to come to see him in high spirits. ‘Yiping, the National School of Administration called the institute and asked to invite you to give a lecture,’
Since the National School of Administration officially adopted the Blue Ocean Strategy as a teaching material this year, this was only a matter of time. Feng Yiping took the opportunity to get away. ‘Mayor, you see, I’m busy right now. Let Jingping show you around. Okay, when you get to the capital, just let me know if there’s anywhere you want to go, and I’ll make the arrangements.’
The National School of Administration invited him to give a lecture? Wang Ganqing couldn’t believe it.
That was an institution that trained middle and senior-level civil servants for the country, and it actually invited him to give a lecture?
Just thinking that Feng Yiping had not only been received by the leader, but might even be teaching senior civil servants, Wang Ganqing was now afraid to use the strategy of cajoling and persuading that he had decided on before coming.
Huang Jingping, who was somewhat unscrupulous and kind-hearted, took the time to ask Feng Yiping, ‘Can’t you give him another chance? Look at him, it seems like he’s a bit pitiful,’
‘People like him, if they stay, will only cause us trouble sooner or later.
And, are people like that pitiful? No, they’re terrifying.’
…
As rumoured, a series of personnel changes took place after the county meeting.
Among them, Guo Guojian, a postgraduate from the provincial university of technology, was transferred to the position of deputy county head and also served as the mayor of Wuli’ao town.
As for Wang Ganqing, he was transferred to the seed station under the municipal agriculture bureau and served as the station manager.
I heard that the reason he was able to transfer to the city was because deputy county head Guo helped to speak for him.
The deputy head of the county government stayed in his office in the county for only one day, and even he didn’t recognise all the people in the county government. Accompanied by senior county officials and the county head, he went straight to Wuli’ao Town.
He was joined there by a deputy secretary in charge of discipline inspection.
Before taking up his post, the deputy head of the county government had already gained an understanding of the situation in the town. After taking up his post, he didn’t make any major adjustments. The original division of responsibilities remained basically unchanged, except that the work of discipline inspection was also added to his portfolio.
After being in the town government for less than two days, Vice-Mayor Guo went straight to Fengjiachong to inspect the area, and then, accompanied by Feng Zhenchang, inspected Jiasheng’s factory in the town and the mulberry silk base.
Feng Zhenchang personally felt that, unlike Wang Ganqing, Deputy County Chief Guo was genuinely keen to make a difference, spoke honestly and directly, and was also capable. At least unlike Wang Ganqing, he was not an amateur when it came to speaking, and he always got to the point.
Influenced by Feng Jiacong’s decision to invite a professional organisation to plan and design the new village, Deputy County Chief Guo also invited the Survey and Design Institute to survey the proposed industrial park and plan the future construction of the entire Wuli’ao Town.
After all the preliminary preparations were complete, Jinling, accompanied by a group of senior executives, held a grand signing ceremony at the city hall. The following day, Mayor Fang, accompanied by his entourage, visited Wuli’ao Town and, together with Jinling, attended the groundbreaking ceremony for the Jiasheng Industrial Park.
The two people in charge of the matter happened to be women, both highly ambitious, and they were not entirely unfamiliar with each other. For example, Mayor Fang had heard his daughter mention Jinling several times, so the communication was very harmonious. ‘Xiaojin, we will fully cooperate with the construction of the industrial park. I only have one request: to produce results as soon as possible,’
‘Don’t worry, Mayor, that’s what we’re after too,’
Unlike Wang Ganqing, who is small in rank but big in stature, the ambitious Vice-Mayor Guo has no airs and graces. A week after the groundbreaking ceremony for the industrial park, he flew to the capital alone and had a long chat with Feng Yiping.
The meeting was very productive.
In Vice-Mayor Guo’s eyes, Feng Yiping was just as his father had described him: young, but with a clear head, high aspirations and a straightforward approach to things.
In Feng Yiping’s opinion, Vice-County Magistrate Guo was a cadre with high integrity. Although he was keen on power, he did not place much value on material things, and was able to get things done with dedication and outstanding ability.
His favourite kind of leader was one who was capable and not greedy, and who only sought continuous improvement.
If you want credit, it’s easy. The planning for Jiasheng will definitely provide Vice-County Magistrate Guo with a very impressive resume.
‘Happy cooperation,’ Feng Yiping said, shaking Vice-County Magistrate Guo’s hand.
‘Happy cooperation, I will definitely cooperate well,’ said Deputy County Magistrate Guo. ‘I heard that you are going to teach at the National Academy of Governance? Congratulations, I have also read your work, it is quite refreshing. I also hope that when you return to the town, Yiping, you can find time to give us a lecture,’
This person is just not comparable to others. If Wang Ganqing had learned three-quarters of the abilities of Deputy County Magistrate Guo, he would not have reached the point he is at today.
