Everyone was dumbfounded at this time. At first they thought that this young man was here to snatch the position of deputy county magistrate, but they didn't expect that he was here to be their boss.
Everyone's expressions were very rich and varied.
Some were stunned, some looked bewildered, some thought there was something wrong with their eyes or that it was an illusion; some were gloating, because it didn't matter to them who became the county party secretary.
The one with the ugliest and coldest expression was County Magistrate Xin Chunguang. He believed that after County Party Secretary Jin Yonghou had used the veto power of the top leader, his time in Changming County would be numbered, and that the position of County Party Secretary should now be his.
But Feng Yuxing, a Cheng Yaojin, showed up unexpectedly and shattered his dream of becoming the county party secretary once again. He felt extremely bad.
Zong Daixiang looked at the crowd with a bit of surprise in his eyes. No one applauded when a county party secretary took office. Wasn't he afraid that the new county governor would make things difficult for them?
Zong Daixiang's thoughts were the opposite of everyone else's thoughts; how could she know that everyone was in a daze and had not yet reacted!
She ignored everyone's reactions and continued to perform her duties. She glanced at everyone and said, "Now, please allow Comrade Feng Yuxing to speak!"
The speech is an inaugural speech. Because there are relatively few people attending the meeting, the word used can only be speech.
At this point, everyone finally reacted and applauded. The matter was now settled. Even if everyone opposed Feng Yuxing's appointment as county party secretary, the provincial and municipal party committees wouldn't retract their decision.
Feng Yuxing slowly walked up to the podium, turned around, looked at everyone, and said:
Dear Secretary Yan, Minister Zong, and all comrades, good afternoon! When Minister Zong announced the appointment just now, I saw the comrades' astonishment. To be honest, I was also surprised.
I received a notice from the Provincial Party Committee in the morning, asking me to visit the Provincial Party Committee. Next thing you know, I arrived in Changming in the afternoon.
We are Party and state cadres, and we obey the organization's arrangements. I haven't been in politics long, just over a year. I used to be a pilot, and I thought my life would be about exploring the universe from the air. It wasn't until the moment of my accident that I realized that the fuel tank capacity of my fighter jet was the end of my universe.
After I switched to working in the local area and became the head of the Jiaoyou County government, I thought that Qi Quanzhu, the Party Secretary of Zhourong City, and Secretary Yan who is sitting here with us, were the end of my universe, because I had to go through them to report problems and obtain any resources.
Later I realized that they were not the end of my universe, but the welfare of ordinary people was the end of my universe.
During my career as a county magistrate, I had to come up with a conceptual motto: for anyone or any cadre who harms the people, I am the 'end of the universe' for them.
I sincerely hope that you all believe what I am saying now. I don't want to be the 'end of your universe,' which would hurt the harmony and affect everyone's patriotism... Thank you everyone!
Feng Yuxing spoke very briefly, not because he was not good at speaking, but because he had just arrived and didn't know much, so he didn't want to waste time.
It was already past 6 p.m. after Feng Yuxing's inauguration meeting. City Party Secretary Yan Baiyang and Organization Minister Zong Daixiang did not stay overnight in Changming County, but returned directly to Xiyun City.
No welcoming banquet was arranged that evening. The Changming County leadership team left with gloomy faces, and no one remembered the incident. Former County Party Secretary Jin Yonghou had not yet left the County Party Committee compound. That evening, he hosted a dinner for Feng Yuxing.
This is exactly in line with the meaning of Feng and Xing, and he can ask Jin Yonghou some questions.
The next morning, Lu Tong, director of the county party committee office, was waiting for Feng Yuxing at the guesthouse.
"Secretary Feng, your residence is ready. All living facilities have been fully equipped according to your requirements and habits. I will take you there later. In addition, Comrade Hou is sorting his belongings in your office. You will hand over your work to him later. You can use the office after completion." Lu Tong looked at Feng Yuxing and said indifferently.
Lu Tong was considered young for a member of the county committee standing committee, only in his forties. But he spoke in a very precise manner and kept to himself.
When talking to the county party secretary Geng Feng Yuxing, he was not disrespectful, but he didn't seem to be flattering either. He just worked for the sake of working. He also controlled his facial expressions very well. When he should smile, he smiled slightly; when he shouldn't smile, his expression was the same: serious.
Feng Yuxing looked at the director of the county party committee office. He intuitively felt that Lu Tong had something hidden in his heart, but he didn't want to tell others. However, Feng Yuxing didn't mind.
He looked at Lu Tong and said, "Oh! Then let's check out the accommodation first, and then go and hand it over to Comrade Yong Hou!"
This was the second time everyone met, and they had never communicated before, so they could only communicate according to the process.
Feng Yuxing followed the office director Lu Tong to see the accommodation arranged for him.
The accommodation Lu Tong arranged for him was a two-bedroom, one-living room apartment with a balcony, which he was very satisfied with, after all, he was still single.
Afterwards, he handed over his duties to his predecessor, Jin Yonghou. Jin Yonghou had voluntarily resigned from the position of Changming County Party Secretary, and there was no disagreement with Feng Yuxing, so the handover was unusually smooth.
Feng Yuxing didn't have any formal work that day, after all, he had to tidy up his accommodation and office.
On the third day, he officially started working in the county party secretary's office.
I don't know if Feng Yuxing is just overly sensitive or just intuitive, but after sitting in the office for a while, I always felt something was wrong. You know, Feng Yuxing was a fighter pilot, so he always had a keen eye for the world around him.
He lit a cigarette and quietly used his intuition to savor the unique atmosphere of this office.
Yesterday, he was busy handing over work with his former colleague and did not pay close attention to the details around him; but it was different now. He was the only one in the huge office, and time seemed to slow down, allowing him to keenly capture those unusual subtle changes.
"What on earth is this?" Feng Yuxing pondered as he blew away the smoke. "Marquis Yong of Jin said that policies that several previous county party secretaries hadn't yet made public would be made public in advance!"
"Could there be a bug in this office? Otherwise, it doesn't make sense! But looking at this office, there's no place to hide a bug!"
Feng Yuxing made a pot of tea for himself and thought about this problem while drinking the tea. Anyway, he didn't come to report to him.
"The eavesdropping device can't really be hidden inside the desk! Then we have to know in advance that this desk is for the county party secretary!" Feng Yuxing thought for a while and lowered his head to look at the wooden board under the desk.
He touched the wooden board underneath and found four abnormalities, which seemed to be small hollows; these four abnormalities were distributed on the four sides of the desk.
