After New Year's Day in 93, a national conference was held. At this conference, in addition to some development plans, some major officials from various provinces were appointed and transferred.

The list of transfers and appointments and dismissals this time includes the appointment meeting for who will serve as the governor of Handong Province, Zhao Lichun and Liang Qunshu.

In the original development, Zhao Lichun was promoted to governor, and Liang Qunshu was promoted to secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission. Later, because the old secretary was seriously ill, Zhao Lichun was directly promoted to the position of secretary of the Handong Provincial Party Committee, and even served as the first political commissar of the provincial military region.

This led to Zhao Lichun basically being able to cover the sky with one hand in Handong Province.

This meeting was a voting meeting to decide who would take the position between Zhao Lichun and Liang Qunshu.

The attendees were basically people who were often seen on TV, and Zhao Cheng was also present.

If nothing unexpected happens, Zhao Lichun will be transferred to the position of governor at this meeting.

In the Handong Provincial Government compound, Executive Vice Governor Zhao Lichun sat in his office waiting anxiously. The red phone on the table remained silent. Even Zhao Lichun, who was quite shrewd, could not help but feel tormented about this major event in his life.

"Ding-ling-ling!" The red phone suddenly rang, and Zhao Lichun quickly reached out to grab the phone and put it to his ear.

"Hello, I'm Zhao Lichun!" Zhao Lichun said calmly.

"Comrade Lichun, your promotion to governor has been rejected this time!" There was a sense of disappointment in the voice on the other end of the phone.

"How could this happen? Old leader, this shouldn't happen?" Zhao Lichun said with a grim expression.

"How did you offend Zhao Cheng?" asked the person on the other side.

"Zhao Cheng? The commander-in-chief of the armed police force? I haven't offended him!" Zhao Lichun said in surprise.

"But he said at the meeting that when you were the secretary of the Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee, you were a little out of touch with the masses, and this news was told by your partner at the time, Chen Yanshi. That old guy is notoriously stubborn and stubborn. Did you offend him?" said the person opposite.

"Well, Chen Yanshi and I just have different political views!" Zhao Lichun's face looked ugly. He didn't expect that Chen Yanshi was involved in this.

"Anyway, today's meeting has appointed Liang Qunshu as acting governor, and your position remains unchanged!" Although the tone on the phone was calm, anyone could tell that he was very angry.

If I don't make it this time, I'll fall behind step by step. If I just hang around for a few more years, I might be reaching retirement age!

"Old leader, can Zhao Cheng directly reject my appointment? What right does he have?" Zhao Lichun's face turned ugly and full of anger.

"Why? Do you remember the guy I told you not to mess with?" the person on the other end of the phone said.

"Is he the guy I helped Lidong investigate before?" Zhao Lichun asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"That's right, it's that guy. The person you want to investigate is Zhao Cheng's son, and the only son who is in politics! His other sons are basically in the army. Do you know what this means?" the other side said.

"This child inherits all the political resources of the Zhao family? But I remember that Zhao Cheng has no power in the government? Isn't he in the army?" Zhao Lichun asked with a puzzled look on his face?

"Zhao Cheng's first wife is Tian Dan. You may not be familiar with this name, but you should have heard of his father Tian Huaizhong. He was a comrade-in-arms with Li Yunlong and Cheng Xiazi. He was also an early participant in the revolution. He had been working in the government before and after liberation! You don't think that he has thrown away all his political resources, do you?" The person on the other end of the phone said with regret.

"Zhao Cheng is Tian Huaizhong's son-in-law? But even if he is Tian Huaizhong's son-in-law, he doesn't have the ability to veto my appointment, right?" Zhao Lichun still didn't understand.

"I tell you this just to let you know that he also has a backer, but Zhao Cheng himself has made enough contributions. Don't think that you don't take others seriously just because you joined the revolution early. If the higher-ups really have to choose one, that person will definitely be Zhao Cheng, not you!" he said helplessly on the phone.

"So Zhao Cheng thinks I am out of touch with the masses and rejects me?" Zhao Lichun said angrily.

"Of course not. It's more about how the higher-ups can trust you to hand over Handong now that you have such a reputation. Don't forget, Handong is a relatively poor province. What it needs is a leader who can lead the entire province to achieve common prosperity. Don't you have even lost this awareness?" The leader on the phone was very angry.

He only discovered today that Zhao Lichun had actually deteriorated a bit! Although many people had indeed deteriorated, when it came to Zhao Lichun's level, you couldn't have such obvious problems. This was the bottom line. How could Zhao Lichun not care?

"Leader, that's not what I meant. I have been in Handong for so many years, and my work ability is obvious to all. I can't be separated from the masses just because that guy Chen Yanshi said I am?" Zhao Lichun said with a grim expression.

"This matter has been discussed at the meeting. No matter how much resentment you have, it's useless. The leaders have already voted and it is impossible to change it! Moreover, Liang Qunshu's appointment letter as governor has been issued. It's too late!" the other side said.

Zhao Lichun had forgotten how he hung up the phone. The only thing he remembered was that his career might be in trouble. If he didn't save himself in time, his position as vice governor might be the end of him.

"I haven't offended him, so why would he collude with others to block my promotion? What is going on?" Zhao Lichun thought about it all night but still couldn't figure out what was going on.

And when the news that Liang Qunshu was appointed governor spread throughout the Handong officialdom the next day, all the Zhao faction members were shocked.

The previous rumors were very plausible, and Zhao Lichun was sure to be the governor, but now the result is like this?

Those who considered themselves Zhao Lichun's confidants hurriedly called to inquire about the situation, hoping to help their leader solve the problem. However, they were all dismissed by Zhao Lichun.

On the one hand, he still hasn't figured out why Zhao Cheng blocked him. On the other hand, Zhao Lichun is now extremely angry with Chen Yanshi, who has become the deputy procurator general of the Handong Provincial Procuratorate.

Originally, it would not have been so easy for Zhao Cheng to stop him, but Chen Yanshi's words of being out of touch with the masses made Zhao Lichun miss the opportunity to become the governor!

Doesn't Chen Yanshi know how serious this accusation is? I, Zhao Lichun, am at best a bit of a hedonist. Even as the top leader of the Municipal Party Committee, don't I have the right to enjoy life just a little bit? Who do you think you are, Chen Yanshi?

So now, in addition to his daily work, Zhao Lichun is trying every possible way to cause trouble for Chen Yanshi.
