Life Reset: I’m the Master in the Officialdom

Humph, if I can’t completely subdue Wentao today, then wouldn’t it be a disgrace for me, the head of a province?

What's more, at this moment, the most important thing for Sima Bo is to achieve remarkable political achievements!

Only with brilliant achievements can one accumulate enough capital and confidence for future promotion to provincial party secretary!

If, as Wen Tao said, we focus on promoting the so-called high-quality green development strategy, it will take a long time to see results, and when can we have any so-called political achievements?

In fact, Sima Bo's mind was as clear as a mirror, and he was not completely ignorant of the views put forward by Wen Tao.

It is nothing more than the hard work of our predecessors in cultivating the land and planting trees, while later generations sit back and reap the benefits from their hard work and enjoy the cool breeze!

But Sima Bo is definitely not the kind of good guy who is willing to make silent contributions and act as an unsung hero!

What Sima Bo pursued was remarkable and brilliant achievements!

It is to let those powerful "old men" far away in Beijing witness my outstanding performance with their own eyes and recognize my ability and value!

At this moment, the entire conference room was silent and dead silent.

Everyone present seemed expressionless, but in fact their hearts were in turmoil, and each of them had ulterior motives.

At this critical moment, Provincial Party Secretary Jian Hongguo calmly stretched out his right hand and gently grasped the exquisite water cup in front of him.

He gracefully raised the cup to his lips and took a sip of the tea in the cup calmly.

Then, he slowly put down the cup in his hand, but what was unexpected was that when the cup touched the table, it made a crisp and heavy sound.

This sudden sound was like a thunderclap, exploding in the originally quiet conference room, causing everyone present to tremble slightly.

Everyone present knew clearly what this action by the usually calm and steady provincial party secretary meant - the secretary was about to express an important opinion.

Sure enough, Jian Hongguo's loud and magnetic voice was heard immediately afterwards: "Well, this tea is really good! After the meeting, Governor Sima will come to my office and bring some back to try. It will help you cool down!"

After saying this, he glanced at Sima Bo who was sitting next to him with a smile.

After a brief pause, Jian Hongguo continued, "This tea is undoubtedly good, but the views just raised by Governor Sima and our Secretary-General are also noteworthy! In my opinion, the two of you have expressed your own opinions and demonstrated your talents. It is truly hard to tell who is better, and each has his own merits!"

Speaking of this, the smile on Jian Hongguo's face became even brighter.

However, seeing that Jian Hongguo had not yet clearly expressed his attitude and position on the matter, Sima Bo, who had been silent all this time, finally lost control of his temper and spoke first, "Secretary, to be honest, I personally agree with the views just expressed by Comrade Wentao. However, after careful consideration, I feel that these ideas do not seem to be in line with the current actual situation in our Liaoan Province. After all, the most urgent task facing us at this stage is undoubtedly to go all out to promote rapid growth in the provincial economy. As for concepts like so-called green and high-quality development, I think it would be better to wait a few years and consider them when the time is right."

After hearing Sima Bo's words, Wen Tao's mouth corners slightly raised, and he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

Humph, what a cunning old fox!

On the surface, he keeps saying that everything is for work, but in fact, he is calculating very shrewdly! He only wants to gain political achievements for himself.

Wait a few more years? We don't even know where you Sima Bo people are!

At this time, Jian Hongguo continued, "This matter is of great importance. It concerns the future development of our Liao'an Province and is arguably of vital importance. Since everyone now holds different views and opinions on this, I believe we need to engage in a more in-depth discussion and ultimately make a wise decision! At the same time, we cannot work in isolation. We must actively maintain close contact with relevant ministries and commissions in Beijing to stay informed about the country's overall development plans and strategic deployments. Only in this way can we be targeted and respond flexibly based on specific policies!"

Everyone present knew that although Secretary Jian Hongguo seemed tactful and gentle, he had actually clearly rejected the suggestion put forward by Governor Sima Bo.

However, this way of denial was rather subtle and obscure, and did not directly refute it completely, so it still gave Sima Bo some face.

However, even so, Sima Bo's heart was still filled with resentment.

But at this moment, he no longer dared to express his dissatisfaction easily.

After all, he was ruthlessly contradicted by Wen Tao today, which made him lose face; if he openly refuted Jian Hongguo's views and intentions at this moment, it would undoubtedly put himself in an even more embarrassing situation.

In fact, to be fair, if Wen Tao had not suddenly intervened today to disrupt the situation, then the proposal put forward by Sima Bo would be the most perfect and outstanding plan from any perspective.

Unfortunately, the situation has changed now, and he can only endure it for the time being and wait for the right time to find another good strategy.

Many members of the Standing Committee in the conference room felt a little shaken.

Especially the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, Ou Guo, was secretly calculating in his heart that now was the time to stand on Jian Hongguo's side!

With Wen Tao joining the Standing Committee, Sima Bo has clearly fallen behind.

If he worked hard, after Jian Hongguo left, he would be able to move directly from deputy secretary of the provincial party committee to the top leader, thus squeezing out Sima Bo.

Thinking of this, the path in his heart seemed to become much brighter.

The biggest topic at today's Standing Committee meeting was shelved for discussion.

The following topics were discussed quickly and passed smoothly, including the issue raised by Wentao regarding the salaries of civil servants in provincial government agencies.

This is a good thing from every perspective, and there is no reason for anyone to refuse it.

Only Sima Bo felt indignant. Only you, Wentao, would be a good person, right?

In fact, he had wanted to bring up the issue of salary for a long time, but now was a critical moment for him, so he had never brought it up. He didn't expect that Wentao, that brat, would get there first.
