Looking at Chen Guoquan's expression, Chen Guoquan's expression seemed very ordinary at this moment. On the surface, he was completely praising Longxi's economic construction and development for good. However, the more this happens, the more he should be more precautions in his heart.

After pondering for a moment, Nie Zhenbang also smiled and said, "Brother Guoquan, I'm talking and joking. The development of Longxi Province only relies on the support and policies of the central government. In addition, Longxi Province itself has a weak foundation. Once it develops, the overall GDP increase seems very exaggerated, with a big leap forward. The growth rate also looks scary. In fact, it is not that lingering. Just like in the eastern Guangdong Province, the total GDP has exceeded 2 trillion yuan. This is incomparable to Longxi. It's more difficult for you to raise one point than if we raise three or even four points. In fact, it's still stronger in eastern Guangdong."

Speaking of this, Nie Zhenbang paused and said, "The economy of Longxi Province has started slowly. It is too young and has developed for too short. Compared with an old and powerful province like Dongdong, it is not on the same level. What you said is mocking me."

Nie Zhenbang's words also implied his meaning. Chen Guoquan's temptation was nothing more than to see if Nie Zhenbang was his opponent.

This is normal. Chen Guoquan himself is such a person. Similarly, with Nie Zhenbang's age and Nie Zhenbang's spirit, it is impossible to consider a position other than No. 3, or even like himself. He must have a position one. If that is the case, then there will be a direct competitor relationship between the two, and there will be a battle and a leader. Isn't that what it means?

Nie Zhenbang's answer was also very clever. Comparison of Longxi's economy and Guangdong's economy. Comparison of the development time of the two provinces. He also vaguely told Shen Guoquan. I want to compete with you. But the reality is here. In this generation, you are the right age and the most suitable candidate. I am too young.

Although the words were not enough to completely dispel the doubts of Shen Guoquan, Shen Guoquan's expression also eased a lot. He smiled and said, "Brother Zhenbang, you are too modest. Your work ability and work skills are obvious to all at our level."

Nie Zhenbang also smiled and said, "Brother Guoquan, you are so kind. You need to learn more from you in many aspects."

These words also express one's own meaning. Learning from Chen Guoquan is undoubtedly to put Chen Guoquan on a higher position, with the meaning of strong support.

Then, under the warm hospitality of Shen Guoquan and his wife, they sat for more than an hour. They exchanged some domestic things, and more were discussing issues such as strengthening economic cooperation in eastern Guangdong and Longxi. The guests and hosts were having fun. Nie Zhenbang also stood up at the right time and said goodbye.

Walking out of Xinhuayuan Community and driving the car, Anna said, "Zhenbang, I'm really determined to wait for another eight years?"

Speaking of eight years, Anna also had a hint of regret and reluctance on her face. From more than twenty years ago, Anna could feel the persistence and pursuit in Nie Zhenbang's heart. She went all the way. Whether she was herself, Sister Wan'er and Sister Lixue, they were silently supporting her.

Even for Nie Zhenbang's future, Sister Wan'er and others would rather go abroad. The purpose is not to affect Nie Zhenbang in any way.

However, now that at this time, Nie Zhenbang chose to endure when he was just about to take a kick. This made Anna feel a little uncomprehensible. With the support of the Nie family and the Dong family, they also have such close relationships with Mr. Shen, Mr. Qiao, and Mr. Mu. It is difficult for Anna to understand why Nie Zhenbang has such a choice.

At this moment, Nie Zhenbang turned his head to look at Anna next to him and smiled and said, "Anna, sometimes, advance and retreat are all in a thought. Some things do not mean that you can do it, you can do it. People should know how to advance and retreat. Taking a step back is also to be able to move forward better. Accumulate stronger power and impact the past. Now, whether it is Mr. Zhuang, the Dong family, or your father, they all have this attitude. Humans are a social animal. Sometimes, the laws of society cannot be reversed."

After all, Anna is not an ignorant person. Moreover, even when she was young, she was a little rude and willful, but she was just a pampered by the Yang family. Anna can be said to be perfect when she is middle-aged. Now, Anna is not the impulsive boy. Her mentality has gradually calmed down and she looked at Nie Zhenbang and said, "Zhenbang, what you do now means to deal with Shen Guoquan and prepare for the future?"

Hearing Anna's words, Nie Zhenbang also smiled and nodded, "Of course, Dad and Mr. Zhuang asked me to visit Shen Guoquan. I'm afraid that's what it means. Whether Mr. Zhuang or Dad, they all have one thing in common. They are both one of the cores of the Nine Tripods. Since they all say so, this shows that Shen Guoquan's issue has formed a consensus on it. I have no hope of competing. Instead of letting Shen Guoquan get into evil, it's better to be a favor."

Mr. Qiao has been in office for four years, and his term has passed half. In terms of No. 1 selection, this is not a process of choosing as soon as possible. I am afraid that since Mr. Qiao took office, the superiors have been considering the next step of the candidate. These four years are a buffer and also a process of investigation. Obviously, Shen Guoquan has won unanimous recognition from the above.

The fourth day of the first lunar month has arrived as scheduled. In the past few days, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Nie Zhenbang couldn't beat the morning, afternoon and evening. On the second day of the first lunar month, Nie Zhenbang accompanied Dong Wan at the Dong family for the whole day.

Although the Dong family still has a lot of resentment towards Nie Zhenbang, over the years, Dong Wan's persistence has also eased the Dong family a lot. Although they will not greet each other with a smile, they will not speak ill of each other.

On the third day of the first lunar month, Nie Zhenbang visited Mr. Mu, Wang Suzhou and others, and Mr. Mu seemed a little meaningful about Nie Zhenbang's choice. Overall, he still gave a high evaluation. This made Nie Zhenbang a little confused.

On the fourth day of the first lunar month, it was only 8 o'clock in the morning, and Nie Zhenbang had already arrived at Mr. Qiao's house. Anna was also accompanied by Nie Zhenbang.

At the door, Mr. Qiao and his wife came out together. Anna had already greeted her and had a close communication with her wife.

Mr. Qiao smiled and said, "It's rare that you have such a heart. Let's sit in the study together."

In Mr. Qiao's study, as soon as he sat down, the orderly officer brought tea. Mr. Qiao sat next to him and picked up the Chinese cigarette from the table: "Smoke one?"

Mr. Qiao usually rarely smokes, so Nie Zhenbang naturally knew this. He smiled and waved his hand and said, "No, turn on the heating, if you smoke, the air in the house will be a little bad."

Putting down the cigarette box, Mr. Qiao pondered for a moment, looked at Nie Zhenbang and said, "I have heard about your affairs these days. I have done a good job. The exchanges with Comrade Shen Guoquan should be strengthened and deepened."

As soon as this was said, it basically showed everything. Mr. Qiao said so, which means that there has been reached a consensus above, and there is no difference on the issue of Shen Guoquan. On this issue, it is true that Nie Zhenbang did a great job and used great perseverance and courage to make an attitude. However, when things have not reached that point, Nie Zhenbang has no fantasy or suspense in his heart. That is a lie. Who would be willing to be the second place if he can be the first place? This is human nature.

However, at this moment, after receiving a positive answer from Mr. Qiao, Nie Zhenbang completely gave up. A look of loss suddenly appeared on his face.

This scene was naturally seen in Mr. Qiao's eyes. Mr. Qiao was still very satisfied with Nie Zhenbang's performance. He was only disappointed in this issue. Moreover, he did everything he should do without losing it at all. He did it quite well. This kind of mind is not comparable to ordinary people.

It is said that people should be able to face failure and setbacks calmly. However, those who say this are obviously the kind of person who speaks without a headache. People who really have the courage to face failures can do as freely as Nie Zhenbang. It can be said that it is rare.

After pondering for a while, Mr. Qiao also said slowly: "Zhenbang, you don't need to be discouraged in this matter. Age is your advantage. In addition, you still have to do a good job in Longxi Province. You can't feel any emotions because of this. On your issue, you have always felt headaches and difficulties. Your situation is a relatively special type. You are also considering and discussing it above to see if there is any solution. You can just know this matter."

As he said that, Mr. Qiao skipped a topic: "Zhenbang, I heard from Comrade Wang Suzhou that this time, the Organization Department is considering transferring Comrade Nie Jialiang to Chubei Province as governor?"

Of course, it is impossible to hide such a thing from Mr. Qiao. Nie Jialiang was transferred to Chubei Province. If Nie Zhenbang had not planned it, it would be almost impossible. Combined with the organization department's consideration of transferring Li Jiahua to the vice governor of Longxi Province. It is not difficult to see the tricks in it.

At this moment, Mr. Qiao said it, not because he was dissatisfied with it, but because he was telling Nie Zhenbang in disguise. There must be no objection to this matter. Basically, this is a kind of compensation for Nie Zhenbang.

Nie Zhenbang naturally understood what Mr. Qiao meant, and then nodded and said, "Chief, I have heard of this matter. I firmly obey the organization's arrangements. Please rest assured. I will never make any trouble. I will do all the work in Longxi Province as always."
