Chapter 556: Chapter 513 WangHai is in chaos (Looking for monthly ticket support)_1
At noon, a grand banquet was held at the Wanghai Hotel Banquet Hall. On one hand, it was to wee the leaders from the central and provincial governments. On the other hand, it was also a wee party for the newly appointed leaders of Wanghai City.
There were a total of eight tables. Two were filled with apanying officials and secretaries of the leaders. Two more had the deputy leaders of the Wanghai City Municipal Party Committee and City Government. Three tables were upied by the deputy leaders of the Municipal Party Committee and City Government, the secretaries of the Municipal Party Committee standingmittee, and a few important city bureau leaders. At the final table sat Yu Shengdong, a few leaders from the Provincial Party Committee who hade, and the Wanghai City Municipal Party Committee secretary, mayor, deputy secretary, disciplinarymittee secretary, and executive deputy mayor.
This table was set apart from the others. When senior leaders were present, those beneath them could not rx even while eating.
Although it was noontime, Yu Shengdong was considerate and did not propose a ban on alcohol. Instead, he picked up his wine ss, toasted with several top officials from the Provincial Party Committee, and even had a separate drink with Nie Zhenbang.
This scene showcased Yu Shengdong’s extraordinary difference again, making Chen Renqing frown. To suppress Nie Zhenbang, there was no method Yu Shengdong wouldn’t use.
After lunch, in the afternoon, the group left WangHai by flight. The Wanghai Airlines flight to Jingcheng happened to stop at Minzhou Airport, where Chen Renqing and others also left.
The next day, the Wanghai City People’s Congress held a regr meeting and formally passed the appointments of Nie Zhenbang, Li Xiangtian, and Liu Gaohua. Nie Zhenbang was sessfully elected as mayor.
Generally speaking, there are two ways to elect an acting mayor, or any acting position. If it’s thetter half of the year, the elections will usually wait until the People’s Congress meeting at the beginning of the following year. Another method takes ce for cases like Nie Zhenbang’s, where someone bes acting mayor after the People’s Congress has convened in the first half of the year. Considering the length of the term, a special meeting of the People’s Congress may be called for a dedicated election. Nie Zhenbang, and the others are following this rule.
In the Municipal Party Committee and City Governmentpound, Nie Zhenbang was inspecting the house assigned to him under the guidance of An Guoyu, the Secretary-General of the City Government.
Nie Zhenbang had been living at the Municipal Party Committee guesthouse for almost half a year. Previously, there weren’t any suitable houses avable, resulting in the dy. Now, after Shi Yiwu’s suicide and Wang Yaguang’s reassignment to Minzhou, quite a few homes in the Municipal Governmentpound were left vacant.
These vis in the leaders’ residential area of the Wanghai City Municipal Party Committee and City Governmentbine Chinese and Western styles. Each vi is three stories high with its own entrance.
The entrance leads to a high-ceilinged living room. An internal spiral staircase, simr to thosemonly seen in vis on television, winds up from there. The first floor contains, in addition to a living room and a dining room, two bedrooms. The second floor is reserved for the master’s space with arge bedroom featuring an en-suite bathroom, a small sitting room, and a study. The third floor houses two bedrooms and a terrace.
Wang Yaguang’s decoration style leaned towards the ancient deal, but not purely ssical wood art decoration style. As a whole, it was very modern, yet highlighted by wooden ceilings. The overall color was a popr pale yellow.
“Mayor, you see, what changes should we make to the interior? So, I can arrange for the decorationpany to enter the scene. Time-wise, it would take a maximum of a month,” An Guoyu, at his side, diligently offered.
An Guoyu also felt extremely grateful for the decision he had taken. Just as he had predicted, Mayor Nie did be the mayor of WangHai City and judging by the current circumstances, he might even be able to keep his position.
Nie Zhenbang pondered for a moment. These decorations were newly made in the first half ofst year. Moreover, Wang Yaguang’s children had all grown up, and the house was well maintained without any ws. Then, after another moment of pondering, Nie Zhenbang calmly said, “Comrade Guoyu, there is no need for remodeling. I’m not a person with that many taboos and concerns. Just arrange for someone to change the mattress in the master bedroom and do a thorough cleaning of the house. No other alterations are necessary. With the Eastern Sea Group’s copse leaving a considerable mess in the city, this year’s financial ie also looks unpromising. We should save where we can.”
“Yes, the mayor’s consideration is always moreprehensive than mine. Rest assured, I will get started immediately and finish within a day. Also, mayor, do you think we should hire a maid? It will be inconvenient for you to cook by yourself due to the heavy workload of weekdays. By hiring a maid, your daily life will be taken care of,” An Guoyu, without making a sound, ttering slightly while making another suggestion.
The Secretary-General of the Municipal Party Committee and that of the City Government are basically the supervisors of many things. They manage the affairs of various government agencies, logistical units, including the needs of the leaders. They are responsible for arranging the lives of leaders, including hiring housekeepers, which falls within their purview as Secretary-General.
As he contemted hiring a housekeeper, Nie Zhenbang found it to be vexing. Housekeepers are generally female. And being a young and robust man, having no wife in WangHai, and being alone at home at night could potentially lead to rumours if he didn’t choose wisely. However, without a housekeeper, life would indeed be inconvenient. At the municipal partymittee guesthouse, there’s always a waiter avable, and they provide 24-hour catering services.
After a moment’s silent, he nodded and said, “Yes, having a housekeeper is necessary, or daily life will be in disarray. But it would be best if the housekeeper is older, in her forties or fifties, and reliable. Guoyu, I’d be grateful if you could handle this for me.”

While speaking, Nie Zhenbang looked at An Guoyu and said: “Comrade Guoyu, this morning, I received a letter ofint about you from Secretary Huguang of the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission. What’s going on?
Upon hearing these words, An Guoyu didn’t appear particrly perturbed. If the mayor were to investigate him, An Guoyu reasoned that he wouldn’t have been informed. Jiang Huguang, being new, was being cautious since theint involved a city leader and, considering the staggering size of the Eastern Sea Group smuggling case, anyone involved would already be implicated. Moreover, as the usatory letter was anonymous, it was normal for the city government to ignore it.
An Guoyu then presented an expression of helplessness and murmured, “Mayor, you know me. At this level, you inevitably offend people.”
Seeing An Guoyu’s aggrieved look, Nie Zhenbang couldn’t helpughing. After the Eastern Sea Group smuggling case, the situation in Wanghai City can only be described as chaotic. Moreover, it’s not merely economic chaos but total chaos.
Regarding the economy, it is unnecessary to borate. The copse of the Eastern Sea Group left many unfinished projects that have be disasters. The so-called highest building in the country has now be a notorious unfinished structure in the heart of Wanghai City. Many homeowners, who paid their presale payments, have hung banners demanding their rights at the unfinished building site.
Moreover, the security situation has also be chaotic as the Eastern Sea Group was thergest underground force in Wanghai City. Now that they have copsed, city’s criminals, big and small, are excited, all vying to be the next Eastern Sea group. Fights ur constantly, creating more chaos.
In the officialdom, the entire Wanghai civil service is also in chaos. Many city organ departments andmissionsck leadership. So far, some have been implicated in the Eastern Sea Group smuggling case and have been demoted or sentenced. Thus, each unit is in fear, including middle-level cadres within the Municipal Party Committee and City Government.
Some are worried about their involvement, while others see an opportunity, and many are taking advantage of this chaos. Before Jiang Huguang’s arrival, Qi Siyuan had received a sudden surge of anonymousints, many of which turned out to be false. However, there isn’t currently an effective measure to control this situation.
Nie Zhenbang thenughed and said: “Don’t y victim. You understand the current situation in Wanghai City. People are in fear and many are using this opportunity for their own advantage. Concentrate on doing your work well. The organization and the masses have straight eyes.”
An Guoyu was very moved. Working within the system has its difficulties, especially in his position. If you can’t gain the trust of the mayor or the secretary of the municipal partymittee, the work of the Secretary-General of the Municipal Government and the Municipal Party Committee can be tough.
Now, Nie Zhenbang’s statement made An Guoyu relieved. He nodded and said, “Yes Mayor. Now, it seems it will take several years for Wanghai City to fully recover.”
Nie Zhenbang also nodded and said: “Indeed, the road ahead is long. Guoyu, I’ll leave this matter to you.”
Upon leaving the residentialpound of the Municipal Party Committee and City Government, Nie Zhenbang walked slowly towards the office building of the Municipal Party Committee and City Government. Along the way, many cadres who saw Nie Zhenbang would voluntarily stop to greet this young mayor, showing their respect. His demonstrated strength hadn’t drawn any disdain due to his young age. On the contrary, he’s highly respected.
Upon entering the elevator, he pressed “12” to proceed directly to the top floor. Nie Zhenbang then headed towards the office of the Municipal Party Secretary, Li Taishi. It was necessary at this time to discuss the chaotic situation in Wanghai City. If we want to rectify the situation in Wanghai City, we must first rectify the officialdom of Wanghai, and this requires propermunication with Li Taishi. (.)
