The pinnacle of power: starting with having sex with a female leader-Chapter 549 Total Investment Promotion Amount
This was destined to be a ludicrous night, not until three o’clock in the morning did the three of them completely exhaust themselves and lie intertwined.
Cheng Yuan was truly too tired, the first time he had been so exhausted.
It was his first time being late since he had taken charge of the Investment Promotion Office.
Cheng Yuan had no idea that during the time he caught up on sleep, a major event had occurred!
An event critical to his career prospects.
...
At half-past nine, Li Chunsheng personally saw Shen Manwen, Jin Zhanpeng, Huang Qiusheng, and Geng Dafeng out of the office.
This was the informal meeting held before the convening of the standing committee meeting.
Commonly known as the five-person meeting.
Usually, the topics to be discussed during the meeting would be preliminarily deliberated in the five-person meeting to avoid discrepancies in opinions at the standing committee meeting.
If the main leaders openly contradicted each other at the standing committee meeting, it would not bode well for the stability of Ji County.
Since it was the first standing committee meeting, everyone was still in the stage of probing each other, and the topics proposed were mostly non-sensitive.
Shen Manwen cooperated very well, agreeing with everything.
Of course, she also took the opportunity to present some of her own proposals.
Overall, this was a harmonious and joyful five-person meeting.
Even Geng Dafeng gained some benefits.
At ten o’clock sharp, Li Chunsheng hosted his first standing committee meeting since his arrival in Ji County.
Shen Manwen thought that this standing committee meeting was just a formality, but an unexpected event suddenly occurred.
Towards the end of the meeting, Geng Dafeng unexpectedly stood up and made a proposal.
"Secretary, County Chief, last year, our Ji County’s GDP ranked 142 among all the counties in the nation, only around 38% behind the top hundred; this gap isn’t too large."
"I suggest that this year, we focus our efforts on investment promotion! Let’s strive to propel Ji County into the ranks of the top hundred counties nationwide!"
Shen Manwen’s pupils suddenly constricted, as she keenly sensed something was amiss!
This topic had not been discussed in the five-person meeting just now!
Moreover, investment promotion was the responsibility of the county government.
Geng Dafeng had brought it up for discussion at the standing committee meeting, clearly indicating that Li Chunsheng wanted to interfere in the investment promotion tasks!
Just as Shen Manwen suspected, Li Chunsheng openly showed his support.
"I support Comrade Dafeng’s proposal! Becoming one of the nation’s top hundred counties will significantly promote the development of our Ji County! County Chief, what do you think?"
Shen Manwen cast a faint glance at Li Chunsheng.
"Secretary, the establishment of the Development Zone Investment Promotion Office is precisely for better handling the tasks of investment promotion."
Her implication was clear: Secretary, please don’t worry about economic construction and concentrate on your party-building efforts!
Li Chunsheng smiled slightly.
"Great! It seems the County Chief and I share a common goal!"
"Now that the organizational structure of the Investment Promotion Office has been essentially established, shouldn’t we add more responsibilities to the comrades in charge of investment promotion?"
Shen Manwen’s heart skipped a beat, realizing she had been duped!
Before she could object, Jin Zhanpeng stood up and spoke solemnly, "Yesterday, Pengfei reported his work to me, and he is confident in achieving a total investment sum of twenty billion this year!"
There was a stir!
The entire meeting room instantly erupted!
Last year, the Ji County Investment Bureau had given their utmost, providing policies and land and amassing a total of five billion in investment.
The economic environment this year wasn’t even as good as last year—was twenty billion seriously achievable?
But since Jin Zhanpeng had put it that way, nobody could doubt it!
After all, Jin Zhanpeng wouldn’t sabotage his own son.
"Excellent! A true case of ’like father, like son’! Pengfei indeed is a brave general to boldly accept the total investment target of twenty billion! But, Comrade Zhanpeng, let me be frank, what if Pengfei fails to meet the twenty billion target?"
Jin Zhanpeng’s tone was resolute.
"If Pengfei fails to meet the twenty billion investment target, I will personally dismiss him as the head of the Investment Bureau!"
After making his statement, Jin Zhanpeng entered a meditative state, observing neither outward nor inward.
Beside him, Geng Dafeng stood out, looking at Shen Manwen with a sly grin.
"County Chief, the Investment Bureau has taken on the twenty billion investment target, how much can the Development Zone Investment Promotion Office take on?"
Shen Manwen’s expression turned exceedingly grim, as Li Chunsheng was pushing too hastily!
This was their first attack on Cheng Yuan at the first standing committee meeting!
What frustrated her the most was that it was an overt plot, utterly indefensible!
And she could not refuse to respond.
If she set too high a target, Cheng Yuan would be blamed for not meeting it.
If she set too low a target, they would surely be ridiculed.
And Li Chunsheng would never agree!
What to do?
Shen Manwen looked at Zhang Kai, the Disciplinary Committee Secretary. Zhang Kai stood out and said solemnly, "Strictly speaking, the Development Zone Investment Promotion Office is a subsidiary agency of the Investment Bureau, naturally it cannot compete with the Investment Bureau—how about five billion as the target?"
Shen Manwen breathed a sigh of relief. Five billion was last year’s amount; with some effort, it should be achievable.
Geng Dafeng disdainfully curled his lip.
"Comrade Zhang Kai, are you belittling the Development Zone Investment Promotion Office or the County Chief?"
"The County Chief has already declared that the Development Zone Investment Promotion Office, though affiliated with the Investment Bureau, does not fall under its jurisdiction but reports directly to the County Chief!"
"Therefore, the Investment Promotion Office is a separate entity parallel to the Investment Bureau!"
"Five billion is not impossible, as long as the Investment Promotion Office is demoted and placed under the jurisdiction of the Investment Bureau. Then, no one should have objections."
