Chen Huai has been in Xucheng these two days and accompanied Cheng Yi to party with his classmates in the dormitory, which can be regarded as a holiday for himself.

When he learned that Wang Hui was the doctoral student he taught at this time by Gu Yisheng, Li Gu also took time to invite everyone to have a midnight snack, which was considered to have gained insights for Zhou Wenjun, Cheng Aijun and others.

Xu Pei can still seize the dominance in Xu City.

At Xiong Wenbin's meeting of the municipal party committee and the municipal standing committee meeting held in the following days, the Xu Urban Committee formed a resolution to comprehensively develop the chemical factory demolition plot and promote the formation of the second financial and commercial trade center area in Xucheng District as soon as possible.

Xiong Wenbin also clarified the division of labor within the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government, mainly in charge of urban construction, industrial and industrial development, investment promotion, human resources and social security, reemployment, foreign affairs, etc., and also served as the deputy head of the State Reform Leading Group (the group leader is also served by Xu Pei).

In the cadre personnel transfer at the end of the year, Huang Xinliang and Zhang Tuo were officially transferred to Xucheng.

Huang Xinliang was transferred to Qinjiang District as deputy district mayor and was unable to join the district standing committee. It is quite regrettable. However, as the jurisdiction of Xucheng City, Qinjiang has an administrative level higher than that of other prefectures and cities. Huang Xinliang also clearly was promoted to a county-level cadre. For him, who had just passed the age of 40, it was a critical hurdle.

Zhang Tuo was transferred to Xucheng Government as secretary and deputy director-level.

In Donghua, Zhao Tianming, executive deputy county magistrate of Xiapu County, was transferred to Tangzha District, as deputy secretary and acting district mayor; Chen Huai no longer served as county magistrate of Xiapu County, and was transferred by Zhou Qibao to serve as deputy secretary of Xiapu County Party Committee and acting county magistrate; Tao Jixing no longer served as director of the county people's congress, and Qi Jingyao, deputy secretary of the county party committee; Dai Quan served as executive deputy county magistrate, and also served as secretary of the Party Working Committee of Xinpu Development Zone, and Song Xiaojun served as deputy county magistrate and secretary of the Party Working Committee of Chengnan Development Zone.

Chen Huai also split Xinpu Development Group into Xinpu Port Development Investment Group, Xinpu Port Industrial Investment Group, and Urban Investment Group at the end of 1998.

Chen Huai did this to split the large plate under the responsibility of Xinpu Port Development Group into three parts: infrastructure investment in Xinpu Port and the development zone, county-owned state-owned asset management and industrial investment, as well as the old city renovation of Lingang New City and Chengguan Town, and is ranked alongside the county education group to become the four major state-owned assets groups under Xiapu County.

On the ninth day after New Year's Day, more than half a month before the arrival of the Spring Festival, Donghua had its first snowfall after the 1999 years.

The car drove into the county party committee and county government compound. Except for the snow swept away from the gate to the cement site in front of the main building, the grass and leaves in the flower beds on both sides were dipped in snow. They hung heavily, and some branches and leaves were too heavy to bear the pressure and were broken.

Zhou Qibao saw through the car window that there was no movement in the front hall of the government building. He looked at Yu Chengzhen, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee who sent him to Xiapu.

Yu Chengzhen closed his eyes and rested, but seemed to have not realized that the car had entered the Xiapu County Party Committee Courtyard.

Zhou Qibao didn't know what Yu Chengzhen would think. What if Chen Huaian sat in the office and couldn't come down to greet him, and waited for them to go upstairs?

While Zhou Qibao was thinking about it, a large group of people came over from behind the building. Chen Huai stood in front of the team with a big broom. In addition, Qi Jingyao, wearing a white down jacket and a red cashmere scarf, was more dazzling. It seemed that they had just returned from sweeping the snow outside.

Yu Chengzhen opened his eyes at the right time, got out of the car with Zhou Qibao, and smiled at Chen Huai, Qi Jingyao and others who were walking over, saying, "Secretary Chen has organized everyone to work voluntarily early this morning?"

Chen Huai came over and shook hands with Yu Chengzhen. Zhou Qibao shook hands and said, "I thought it had snowed and the cars of Secretary Yu and Comrade Qibao would not come so early. I rushed to the county in the morning without any other arrangements. Seeing the snow in the yard lacking people to clean up, I and Secretary Jingyao and Lao Du organized everyone to come out for activities..."

Chen Huai called Zhou Qibao intimately as "Comrade Qibao". He heard Qi Jingyao beside him and had goose bumps for a while. When he saw Yu Chengzhen on the opposite side, his eyebrows were trembling slightly, thinking that he probably felt the same way.

From the meeting between Chen Huai and Xu Pei in Xucheng, Xiong Wenbin successfully took office in Xu Pei, and the comprehensive development project of the Binjiang plot entered the agenda, the Huaihai Government Construction Fund established by Xiapu County was taken over by the province, etc., all of which happened in more than a month; all of this can also be said to be the follow-up of the conversation between Provincial Party Secretary Zhong Limin and Chen Huai in Yicheng.

At that time, Qi Jingyao realized that it was impossible for her to compete for the position of Xiapu County Mayor. Although she also served as the director of the county people's congress and officially held a position at the county level, the possibility of her directly replacing Chen Huai as the secretary of Xiapu County Party Committee in the future became even more slim.

However, Xu Pei finally agreed that Zhou Qibao would go to Xiapu to serve as county magistrate, which many people would not expect.

The former revenge and old resentment of Chen Huai and Tan's family is almost well-known in Donghua. Xu Pei's arrangement may be to show the outside world that he chose to support Meigang's development to a certain extent and supported Xiong Wenbin's work in Xucheng was to remain consistent with Zhong Limin in the province, and Chen Huai and Meigang were not qualified to compromise.

Under such circumstances, Qi Jingyao wanted to know more about Chen Huai's attitude towards Zhou Qibao's arrival?

Chen Huai shook hands with Yu Chengzhen, then held Zhou Qibao's hand and introduced Qi Jingyao, Ge Yifei, Dai Quan, Du Jian and others beside him to meet him.

Zhou Qibao was transferred to Donghua City with Tan Qiping in the early 1994. How could he not know Qi Jingyao, Ge Yifei, Dai Quan and others? However, today is his meeting at Ren Xiapu. Chen Huai introduced the members of the Standing Committee to him, which is also a normal procedure.

But Chen Huai's enthusiasm to hold his hand made him feel refreshed.

Zhou Qibao served as deputy secretary of the district party committee and district mayor in Tangzha for many years. He had served as district party secretary of Yang Yuquan, Xiong Wenbin and Meng Jiansheng.

The position of Secretary of the Tangzha District Party Committee, from Xiong Wenbin, has been a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee. Zhou Qibao knew that he did not have strong support in the province. Even if he seemed to be only one step away from the secretary of the Tangzha District Party Committee and the district mayor, he did not have the ability to cross it.

Therefore, for Zhou Qibao, if he is not suppressed and with normal promotion procedures, he can only be transferred to other districts and counties as the top leader first.

Xiapu County has developed rapidly in the past two years, with the county economy first in the province, and its status in all aspects has significantly surpassed Tangzha. Even if Zhou Qibao cannot be transferred to Xiapu County as the county magistrate, he can be regarded as a step forward.

The only and biggest problem is that Zhou Qibao was transferred to Xiapu County to form a team with Chen Huai.

In addition to the city party committee talking to him about this appointment, Chen Huai also called the city to communicate, Zhou Qibao had no chance to contact Chen Huai for more than a month.

With this appointment, Chen Huai did not publicly express any resistance, but Zhou Qibao didn't know what Chen Huai was thinking.

On the surface, it seemed that Zhou Qibao's transfer was Guo Chengze, and Meng Jiansheng made a motion to the city. Zhou Qibao still knew in his heart that this appointment was arranged by Xu Pei, deputy secretary of the provincial party committee. Although he didn't have to worry about anything, the shadow in his heart could not be eliminated.

Yu Chengzhen narrowed his eyes and looked at Chen Huai and Zhou Qibao's intimate greetings, and smiled and forced Zhou Qibao to cooperate with Chen Huai to achieve greater results in Xiapu.

Yu Chengzhen had to step down from the second line in less than two years. He knew that no matter how hard he was, he would not have much benefit. Although he had to stand on the same line as Chen Baoqi in the city, he was even more hoping that he could retreat steadily and not torture himself or herself in.

Although Chen Huai's intimate holding Zhou Qibao's hand made him goose bump, he thought that he could send Zhou Qibao to Xiapu to take office smoothly today. Even if his mission was completed this time, he would not care how Chen Huai would mess with Zhou Qibao in the future. As for what Qi Jingyao's subsequent plans in Xiapu County, he also felt that he was powerless.

***************************************

Just in front of the county government building, everyone shook hands and exchanged simple greetings. Then they went to the conference room to read Zhou Qibao's appointment on behalf of the municipal party committee. When Yu Chengzhen, Chen Huai, Zhou Qibao and others spoke, the county TV station also recorded the video and waited for the afternoon news meeting to be broadcast as soon as possible.

At noon, we had a dinner in the government cafeteria. After accompanying Yu Chengzhen to briefly inspect the construction site of Jinghai Avenue, we sent Yu Chengzhen away, and then returned to the county.

Back in the county, Chen Huai stood in front of the corridor waiting for Zhou Qibao. Qi Jingyao got out of the car and walked over and said, "In a few days, the county plenary committee meeting will be held for the formal meeting between Comrade Qiming and the cadres and masses of the county. It will be arranged during the plenary committee meeting and no other arrangements will be made. However, since Comrade Qiming has arrived in Xiapu County, the work of the county government must be fully presided over. Secretary Qi, you have nothing to do in the afternoon, right?"

Qi Jingyao also saw what Chen Huai wanted to arrange Zhou Qibao, nodded and said, "Then let's go to Secretary Chen's office to sit down."

None of the other Standing Committee members notified him, so Chen Huai asked Du Jian to go to the office to talk with them.

"I used to be in the government's work, so Lao Du is also responsible for the government's work," Chen Huai invited Qi Jingyao and Zhou Qibao to sit on the sofa in the talks area first. After Du Jian made tea and sat down, he went straight to the topic. "I am not the county magistrate, Lao Du should let go of the government's work. Since the government work is hosted by Qi Ming, you have to choose who the new government's director should use. Secretary Qi, have no objection to this?"

The county-level department-level cadres, director of the county government office and deputy secretary-general of the county party committee are one of the most valuable ones. If Chen Huai wants to limit or even want to undermine Zhou Qibao, the candidate for the county government office director can be said to be a very critical position.

Chen Huai asked Zhou Qibao to decide the candidate for the county government office director, but it might not be necessary to delegate power to Zhou Qibao. After all, the executive deputy county magistrate, deputy county magistrate, assistant county magistrate and other people were all confidants promoted by Chen Huai.

In particular, Dai Quan, who has a high prestige in Xiapu County and is the main contributor to the rise of Xinpu Port. Even without Chen Huai's instructions, Dai Quan must be with Zhou Qibao and dragged him down openly and secretly. Zhou Qibao has no good way to deal with him yet.
