At the Pinnacle of Power: My Insider Report Alarms Bigwigs in Beijing's Elite Circle

Provincial Party Secretary Liang Yumin concluded the meeting with a smile, but did not stay in Qinghe County for dinner.

If a leader doesn't eat after inspecting or conducting research, it indicates dissatisfaction with the work done below.

This cast a shadow over the hearts of He Qingyun and Wei Dongqing.

He Hua, the county head of Qinghe County, did not empathize with the situation. After leaving the meeting, he couldn't wait to call Lin Yi.

"Brother Lin Yi, you're awesome!"

Overwhelmed with excitement, He Hua not only addressed Lin Yi as "brother," but also became less careful with his word choice.

Lin Yi asked with a smile, "Brother He, what's going on with you?"

"Brother, Secretary Liang today..."

He Hua immediately told Lin Yi everything that had happened at the on-site meeting held by Provincial Party Secretary Liang Yumin that day. He was in high spirits throughout the process, as if he had accomplished it all himself.

Lin Yi remained calm: "Brother He, I understand."

"No, brother, why do I feel like you're not excited at all? Let's not talk about how Wei Dongqing felt at the meeting today! You're about to become a role model for all party members and cadres in the province! Do you know what that means? It means that if you do a good job with the economic transformation pilot project in Qinghe County, you might be promoted again through exceptional means!"

He Hua was no longer calm. If it were him, he would definitely have to have sex with his wife tonight to celebrate!

"Brother He, Mayor Xiao is calling. I'll take this call first, then I'll treat you to drinks when I get back!"

Lin Yi smiled and ended the call with He Hua.

He knew that Xiao Yuan would definitely call him at this time.

Sure enough, Xiao Yuan called right after Lin Yi hung up the phone.

"Xiao Yi, congratulations! You're about to become a role model for all Party members and cadres in the province!"

When the call connected, Xiao Yuan congratulated him with a smile.

Lin Yi said, "Brother Xiao, I wasn't at the meeting today, but the success of this matter is mainly thanks to you."

"Don't try to flatter me! You were the one who came up with the plan; I just implemented it, and only a part of it at that!"

Xiao Yuan smiled happily, recalling the meeting he had just attended, and couldn't help but praise:

"Your move to solve the 'problems' encountered in attracting investment to Qinghe County by taking advantage of Secretary Liang's instructions was absolutely brilliant!"

"Brother Xiao, with Secretary Liang so supportive of our work, we definitely have to live up to his expectations!" Lin Yi said with a smile.

"Haha, you're so good at talking!"

Xiao Yuan grinned from ear to ear, then reminded him:

"Xiao Yi, Secretary Liang praised you to the skies at the meeting and told all party members and cadres in the province to learn from you. This wasn't because you brought credit to him, but because of the plan you proposed! Once the Qinghe Investment Promotion Conference is successfully held, it will be widely publicized by the media and will cause a stir across the country. It will definitely be noticed by the central leadership! So, you must make sure the Qinghe Investment Promotion Conference is a success!"

“I know, Brother Xiao.”

Lin Yi's mind was as clear as a mirror.

Lin Yi's little scheme naturally did not escape Liang Yumin's notice.

Even if Liang Yumin knew that the 'problem' Lin Yi mentioned was exaggerated, he would not refuse the credit Lin Yi offered in the afternoon.

As for the Qinghe Investment Promotion Conference...

That was not just the first shot fired in Qinghe's economic transformation, but the first shot fired in Dongjiang Province and even the whole country!

With Liang Yumin's political acumen, it's impossible that he didn't understand the significance of this matter!

"Xiao Yi, I suggest that when the Qinghe Investment Promotion Conference is held, we should invite Shi Meng over, and have her bring some media friends, preferably people from the People's Daily and Xinhua News Agency, the two official media outlets. This way, the publicity will definitely be unprecedented!" Xiao Yuan reminded him again.

“Okay, Brother Xiao, we’ll do as you say. I’ve arrived in Jiangning. I’ll call Shimeng about this in a bit, and then I’ll visit Uncle Xu.”

Lin Yi thought Xiao Yuan's words made sense.

If the People's Daily and Xinhua News Agency had reported on the Qinghe County investment promotion conference, the effect would have been completely different!

I can't afford to hire those two media outlets myself, but Xu Shimeng definitely can!

Lin Yi and Xiao Yuan ended their call, and before Lin Yi could call Xu Shimeng, Xu Shimeng called him back.

"County Chief Lin, let me interview you. How does it feel to be the subject of study for all Party members and cadres in Dongjiang Province?" Xu Shimeng teased with a smile as always.

Lin Yi was taken aback: "You found out so quickly?"

"Hehe, don't you even know what I do? We reporters need to get the latest news."

Xu Shimeng deliberately concealed the truth by using her work identity.

While Liang Yumin was having a meeting in the afternoon, Xu Shimeng happened to send a message to Xiao Yuan, informing him that Lin Yi would be 'attending the meeting remotely', and specifically asked Xiao Yuan to call her after the meeting.

This is also why Xiao Yuan called Lin Yi later than He Hua.

At that time, Xiao Yuan was on the phone with Xu Shimeng!

"Reporter Xu is really amazing!"

Lin Yi guessed the inside story, but didn't reveal it. Instead, he smiled and praised her.

"Heh, County Chief Lin, there's a saying that you should never forget the well-digger when you drink the water. But you, now that you're doing so well at work and have a bright future ahead of you, you come to Jiangning and don't even bother to visit your Uncle Xu. You're really heartless!"

Xu Shimeng stood in Villa No. 1 of the Jiangnan Provincial Party Committee Family Compound and said in a deliberately angry tone.

She traveled all the way from Beijing to Jiangning after learning that Lin Yi had come to visit Xu Hongrui.

Lin Yi quickly explained, "I swear to God, I was just about to call you before you called me, to ask you to ask your dad if he had time tonight so I could visit him. Brother Xiao can vouch for me!"

"puff!"

Xu Shimeng was amused and laughed, "Silly boy, I'm not teasing you anymore. Just come to Villa No. 1 in the Provincial Party Committee Family Compound. My dad will treat you to dinner tonight."

"Did your father already know I was going to visit him today?"

"After Xiao Yuan learned about your schedule, he was worried that my dad was away on research, so he called my dad and asked him to take some time to meet with you tonight."

As Xu Shimeng spoke, her tone became proud.

"Of course, my dad himself really wants to meet you. He said he wants to have a good talk with you!"

What does Uncle Xu want to talk to me about?

Lin Yi's heart stirred, and he seemed to be deep in thought.

At 6:30.

Lin Yi arrived at the entrance of the Jiangnan Provincial Party Committee compound by car and was surprised to see Xu Shimeng waiting for him.

Tonight, Xu Shimeng wore a ponytail, a white dress, and sandals, looking as innocent as a girl next door.

Why are you waiting for me at the door?

Lin Yi got out of the car, carrying two boxes of gifts, and walked towards Xu Shimeng.

Xu Shimeng said, "This is the provincial party committee's residential compound. If I don't pick you up, you can't go in."

"Too."

Lin Yi smiled wryly, then followed Xu Shimeng into the provincial party committee's family compound, a symbol of status, power, and position, and headed towards Villa No. 1.

As Xu Shimeng walked, she blinked her beautiful big eyes and said, "Lin Yi, I heard about the Yunshan investment promotion symposium. I'm very interested in how you persuaded the CEOs of BYD and BOE. Tell me about it?"

"You're going to meet your dad soon. I'll tell you more when I have time later."

"No, you should speak now, people want to listen!"

Xu Shimeng suddenly grabbed Lin Yi's arm and started to act coquettishly.

The sudden scene startled Lin Yi, and then a bold idea emerged in his mind!

Is that young man the boyfriend of Secretary Xu's daughter?

Meanwhile, in the family compound of the Jiangnan Provincial Party Committee, some people witnessed this scene and were shocked.

"My dear daughter, you're taking this opportunity to put your old man in a difficult position!"

Xu Hongrui stood by the window of the study in Villa No. 1, watching his daughter's coquettish manner, and couldn't help but smile wryly.

After tonight.

The news that Xu Shimeng brought her boyfriend to meet Secretary Xu will surely spread throughout the Jiangnan Provincial Party Committee and the major wealthy families in Beijing!
