Trantor: 549690339
After the arrival of spring, the Xibei Autonomous Region has weathered the harsh winter. Revival sprinkled everywhere, the construction of the New Li City has also resumed the climax ofst year. The entire development zone has be the busiest construction site, and at the same time, the Development Zone team is also working hard. The new infrastructure nning and preparations are proceeding in an orderly manner. Pear City Avenue will extend another fifteen kilometers onward. This willpletely connect the newly included Red g and Chetai townships in the development zone. In the future, this will be the gateway to the Development Zone.
“Secretary, are you busy?” At this moment, Secretary Yi Jun knocked on the door and walked in from outside, after moving to the city governmentpound. After Yi Jun’s organizational rtionship was naturally transferred from the city government to the city partymittee, he is now also rising with time. He is serving as the Deputy Secretary-General of the Office of New Li City Party Committee, and is an official vice-department level cadre. Now, there is a long line of peopleing to his door to ask for his hand in marriage.
Yi Jun’s gratitude towards Nie Zhenbang had deepened in his heart. If it’s about who is most loyal to Nie Zhenbang in New Li City, I’m afraid, Yi Jun is probably the first one, followed by Chen Le and Lin Weimin.
Looking at Yi Jun’s appearance, Nie Zhenbang was stunned for a while. He understood Yi Jun’s personality well over the past year of acquaintance. Then he smiled and said, “Xiaoyi, what’s up? You seem a little preupied. What happened? Are you having trouble with your rtionship?”
At this moment, Yi Jun also felt embarrassed by Nie Zhenbang’s words. With his family’s introduction, Yi Jun has also started dating a staff member from the Finance Bureau, with Lin Weimin helping Yi Jun as an insider. So far, it’s going well.
However, today, what Yi Jun wants to talk about is not this matter. He walked into the office and put a schedule for tomorrow on Nie Zhenbang’s desk and said, “Secretary, here is the schedule for tomorrow. At nine in the morning, the Millionaire Leather Co., Ltd. will officially open. Zhu Lufeng, General Manager Zhu has sent an invitation. You have promised General Manager Zhu to attend the opening ceremony. I have taken the liberty to schedule it for you. In the afternoon, you will have to go to Yunshan Town for an investigation.”
Having said that, Yi Jun paused for a moment, showing some hesitation. Although a secretary and a leader share amon weal and woe, a secretary is an intimate confidant of the leader. However, sometimes, a secretary must keep bottom line and there are things that absolutely cannot be crossed.
After hesitating for a moment, Yi Jun still decided to say something. He then lowered his voice and said, “Secretary, recently, Mayor Zhou has been quite active.”
Nie Zhenbang was not at all surprised by Yi Jun’s words. From Yi Jun’s expression, Nie Zhenbang knew this young man had something to say. Now, after listening, it was indeed as expected.
At this moment, since Yi Jun has already said it, he simply let go. Seeing that Nie Zhenbang showed no dissatisfaction, he continued, “Secretary, after Mayor Zhou took office, he first went to the City’s Veteran Cadre Bureau to console old leaders andrades of New Li City. Then, he went to the Standing Committee of the Municipal People’s Congress for an exchange. After that, he has been visiting the towns and townships, and whenever he goes, he will surely sit with the presidium of the People’s Congress of each township. Secretary, it seems like Mayor Zhou is preparing for the uing election.”
Hearing Yi Jun’s words, Nie Zhenbang alsoughed. With the guidance of an experienced person, Zhou Chen’s performance became extraordinary. He learned to keep a low profile and to unite different forces. After taking office, he also performed very low-key. However, Zhou Chen seems to be a bit too cautious. Nie Zhenbang did not really have the idea of driving Zhou Chen away through the People’s Congress election.
In the officialdom, such a thing is a big taboo. If the candidate rmended by the superior leader fails in the election, unless he has truly outraged public opinion, otherwise, the anger from the superior is something that an ordinary person cannot bear.
Then, Nie Zhenbangughed and said, “Xiaoyi, let Mayor Zhou do his own thing. We, on our side, will do ours. As long as it doesn’t interfere with the normal development of New Li City, he also has his own freedom to act. Let’s leave it at that with this matter, just let him do as he pleases.”
Yi Jun also nodded, and then said, “Yes, your criticism is correct, Secretary. I was being a bit sensitive. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go out and get busy.”
The next day at eight o’clock in the morning, at the factory gate of Millionaire Leather Co., Ltd. in the development zone, it was already a lively scene. Colored gs had been hung up on the hollow fence.
A stage was set up at the entrance of the factory office building. Following some of the traditions and styles of Yuedong, this time, Zhu Lufeng’s opening ceremony was somewhat grand.
Five minutes past eight.
Under the leadership of Nie Zhenbang, Deputy Secretary of the City Party Committee Xie Yi, Deputy Secretary of the Development Zone Work Committee Yang Zhengping. The City Committee Member, Minister of Propaganda of the City Committee Yan Fengjiao, and the Management Committee of the Development Zone, Leng Guohua also arrived.
Zhu Lufeng greeted them with a smile. The attendance of several important leaders of New Li City at his opening ceremony was a great honor for Zhu Lufeng.
“Secretary Nie, all the leaders, warm wee to your visit. Please take a seat on the podium.” At this moment, Zhu Lufeng was also wearing a suit and tie. He looked energetic throughout.
After the opening remarks came the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the factory. Nie Zhenbang and other leaders stepped forward and, led by the ceremoniously dressed youngdy, cut the ribbon for Millionaire Leather Co., Ltd.
Zhu Lufeng personally apanied and led Nie Zhenbang and others towards the new factory district. In just half a year, Zhu Lufeng’s leather factory had been promoted to a limitedpany, indicating Zhu Lufeng’s rapid development.
Looking at the rows of new factories, Nie Zhenbang couldn’t help but smile, “Mr. Zhu, I remember when Secretary Jiang from the Xibei Autonomous Region’s Party Committee came to inspect, your factory was only a few dozen hectares. Now, you’ve acquired 300 hectares and built so many factories. It seems your products are in high demand.”
Zhu Lufeng felt a little embarrassed at that moment. Initially, his motivation for setting up the factory was to invest in and give back to his hometown. But to his surprise, the leather factory had be his primary source of ie. Responding to Nie Zhenbang’s query, Zhu Lufengughed, “Secretary Nie, there’s no problem at all. In the second half of this year, I n to acquire another 200 hectares. The leather in Xinli City is excellent and all our products are made from genuine leather. Nearly every piece of our production is sold with practically no inventory left behind. Most of them are exported. So, I’m very confident. However, there is one thing that I’m not sure whether to mention.”
Zhu Lufeng’s words stunned Xinli City leaders. Nie Zhenbang, however,ughed, “Mr. Zhu, there’s no need to hesitate. We wee anyments from investors in New Li City freely. It is our duty to provide the best services for investors.”
Nie Zhenbang’s words were not mere rhetoric but were taken to heart and put into practice in New Li City. The investment green channel, primary responsibility system, and other measures were all aimed at making things easier for investors. The level of government support is one of the first things investors look at when assessing a ce to invest.
Zhu Lufeng smiled and said, “No, no, Secretary Nie, I think you misunderstood me. We, as investors, are quite satisfied with the city and district leaders. I have met several fellow business owners here, and we all agree that as long as we do not break thew, investing in New Li City is a certain and stable venture. My point is, the transportation situation in New Li City is not very convenient.”
This issue touches precisely on New Li City’s weaknesses, and it is not only a problem in New Li City—it’s an issue Bazhou City is also facing.
It’s generally known that if an outside guest or leaders want toe to Bazhou, they first need to fly to Urumqi and generally need to stay there overnight. The next morning, it would be a seven-hour drive to reach Bazhou City, then again a few tens of minutes to reach Lixian.
It’s fine for regr times, but during any emergency, this mode of transport is not quite adequate. Nie Zhenbang also began considering the transportation issue, as it has indeed be a pressing issue for New Li City’s development.
At present, the development of New Li City is about toe to a bottleneck if the transportation issues are not resolved, which will undoubtedly affect New Li City.”
Nie Zhenbang nodded and said, “Thank you for your suggestion, Mr. Zhu. We indeed did not think about this issue at the municipal government. However, we surely will consider it our top priority and study it thoroughly with your suggestion. We aremitted to serving the entrepreneurs of New Li City.”
Nie Zhenbang’s candid attitude garnered Zhu Lufeng’s admiration. His approach was straightforward: “What we have, we have; what we don’t have, we don’t have.” Unlike other ces where they pretend to understand everything. Nie Zhenbang’s straightforward style and attitude put the many surrounding business owners watching at ease. Having such a practical leader makes investing in New Li City a lot more reassuring.
Upon returning to the citymittee’s office building, Nie Zhenbang immediately ordered Qu Feng, “Secretary Qu, inform the home-based standingmittee members to hold an ad-hoc standingmittee meeting as soon as possible. Set the time for 2 PM this afternoon. Also, please call Yunshan Town and let them know that my visit this afternoon will be postponed. I think it would be better to reschedule it for tomorrow.”
Qu Feng blinks but nods in agreement. Nie Zhenbang’s sudden request for a standingmittee meeting must be rted to Zhu Lufeng’s suggestion.
By 2 PM, all of the standingmittee members were seated in the conference room. Nie Zhenbang arrived right on time and, seeing that everyone was present except for Zhou Chen, took his ce and began, “Vice Mayor Zhou is not here as he has gone on a rural inspection. Let’s start the meeting without him. The main issue of this meeting is the transportation issue in New Li City that was raised by an enterprise owner from the Development Zone. I propose that with the development and prospects of New Li City, it’s necessary to construct an airport.”
Just as Nie Zhenbang finished speaking, the conference room door was pushed open from the outside. Zhou Chen walked in with an awkward smile, nced at his watch and said, “Ha ha, has it started already? My apologies for beingte.”

By the way, can I quietly ask if 150 tickets equaling six chapters is a possibility? (To be continued. If you like this novel, please visit ) to rmend and vote.
