The people in Zhouxi Municipal Government were not excited. They shook their heads and sighed, looking very helpless. They had not heard of any changes in the candidate for Zhouxi mayor. If the official candidate for Zhouxi mayor was announced, it would undoubtedly be Yi Guyong.
Normally, Yi Gurong, as the deputy mayor, relied on the support of the municipal party secretary Huan Tongmin and did not take the former mayor Liang Mingxian seriously. If Yi Gurong were allowed to take the position of mayor again, it would be a catastrophic phenomenon.
Qiao Ke glanced at the representatives present, took out two pieces of paper from his briefcase, cleared his throat, and said slowly:
"Comrades, good afternoon! When you see me standing here, you should be able to guess what's going on. Someone from the Organization Department, standing on this stage, must have some good news. Now, I'll share this good news with everyone!"
He took the two pieces of paper in his hand, looked at Feng Yuxing, and said, "Comrade Yuxing, please stand up for a moment!"
After Feng Yuxing stood up, Qiao Kenan continued, "Everyone, let me introduce you, this is Comrade Feng Yuxing!" Then he gestured for Feng Yuxing to sit down.
Feng Yuxing turned around, bowed to everyone, and sat down.
Qiao Kenan looked at everyone again, then at the paper in his hand, and said, "This is two appointments for one cadre, but we have simplified it and combined them into one."
He continued to read, “After discussion at the Central Committee, we reached a consensus and decided to appoint Comrade Feng Yuxing as a member, standing member, and deputy secretary of the Zhouxi Municipal Party Committee of Yuanxi Province;
After discussion at the central level, a consensus was reached to appoint Comrade Feng Yuxing as the acting mayor of Zhouxi City Government, Yuanxi Province.
At the same time, Comrade Que Feng and Xing Yinhai are relieved of their duties as Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee's Political and Legal Affairs Commission, Deputy Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, and Director of the Police Department. The appointments are complete!
As soon as Qiao Kenan finished speaking, what he received was not warm applause, but all the representatives present started buzzing like bees.
"It turns out the higher-ups are parachuting in the mayor of our Zhouxi City. No wonder the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department hasn't approved the person they reported to us for so long. So they're holding back!"
"This clearly shows a lack of trust in the cadres of our Yuanxi Province!"
"Can such a young man lead the city government?"
"This new mayor is riding an intercontinental missile! He's already mayor at this age, so we can't afford to be eliminated!"
"Didn't you hear what Minister Qiao said just now? He's in Yinhai, but he's the Deputy Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee and the Deputy Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission concurrently. His main job is the Director of the Police Department!"
Everyone feels a little jealous, but it has nothing to do with them, so they just watch the show as spectators.
Some people were gloating, of course, targeting Deputy Mayor Yi Gurong.
At this moment, the atmosphere in this solemn conference room seemed extremely solemn.
Zhouxi Municipal Party Committee Secretary Huan Tongmin's face was ashen, as if shrouded in thick fog, making it difficult to discern his true emotions.
Deputy Mayor Yi Gurong's face was filled with despair, a look of despair on the verge of collapse, because all his efforts had been in vain.
His eyes were empty, as if he had lost his direction, and his body slumped weakly in the chair, appearing decadent and helpless.
Qiao Kenan also knew that Feng Yuxing's appointment was a little different, but he didn't expect that everyone would react so strongly.
"Cough, cough!" Qiao Kenan coughed twice, and everyone realized that they were attending the inauguration meeting of the new mayor, and they immediately quieted down again.
He continued, "Comrade Feng Yuxing is a retired soldier. He has served as the director of the Culture and Tourism Bureau and the county magistrate of Jiaoyou County, Zhourong City; the secretary, standing committee member, and deputy mayor of Changming County, Xiyun City;
Provincial Police Director, concurrently serving as Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Political and Legal Affairs Commission and Deputy Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission;
During his tenure as local chief executive, he was committed to promoting local economic development, working hard to create a cleaner and fairer business environment for the people, and also working to purify the atmosphere of the cadre team.
These efforts have yielded remarkable results. Our local economy has experienced rapid recovery and development, the quality of life of the people has improved significantly, and the ethos of the cadre team has been completely renewed. . . .
After praising Feng Yuxing's past achievements, Qiao Kenan said directly: "Now, please welcome Comrade Feng Yuxing to give his inaugural speech as acting mayor. Please welcome him with applause!" This time, he did not give everyone a chance to discuss.
Of course, opportunities lie in the mouths of the people.
He only briefly introduced some of Feng Yuxing's political achievements and did not mention the former mayor Liang Mingxian. Liang Mingxian has not yet been determined and can only be ignored.
"You see, they still have political achievements to support them!"
"That's fast! Look at our Yuanxi Province. Has there ever been such a young mayor in history?"
"I think this guy is definitely a ruthless person, otherwise, with his qualifications and age, he would never have reached this position!"
"This new mayor, I think he has a huge background, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to take the position of mayor at such a young age!"
"Look at what you said. Those bigwigs in the Central Powers don't have children? Why don't their children reach this level of position at this age?"
Feng Yuxing walked slowly forward amidst the chatter of the crowd, taking an elegant and steady step.
He turned around, faced the expectant audience, and bowed deeply.
Afterwards, he stood steadily on the podium, his eyes sharp as a torch, looking around at everyone present, as if looking for resonance, while also preparing to start his speech.
At this time, he found a familiar face in the corner. This person was Zhu Yonghao, his classmate who attended the Youth Cadre Department study class of Yan School with him.
He nodded to Zhu Yonghao, and Zhu Yonghao nodded in return.
Zhu Yonghao was extremely excited at this moment.
You know, today the Zhouxi Municipal Party Committee held a standing committee meeting to discuss removing him from his position as county party secretary, and he was aware of it;
At that time, he received the news that the vote to remove him from his position as county party secretary was abruptly interrupted because someone from above came.
Now he also understood why today's emergency meeting was held. It was because of Feng Yuxing's arrival. If his "classmate" Feng Yuxing became the mayor, then he would have a chance to turn his life around.
County Magistrate Wang Mingquan, who was sitting next to Zhu Yonghao, saw him suddenly smile and asked curiously, "Comrade Yonghao, do you know the new mayor?"
Like Zhu Yonghao, Wang Mingquan was discussing their stay or departure today. If Feng Yuxing had not arrived and interrupted the vote of the Zhouxi Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee, both of them would have been dismissed.
"Of course. Didn't I go to Yan School to attend the Young Reserve Cadres Training Program some time ago? I'm a 'classmate' with Mayor Feng, 'classmate', understand?"
Zhu Yonghao muttered softly, his tone revealing full joy.
"Then we don't have to be laid off?" Wang Mingquan said in a low voice.
