The party and government meeting began at nine o'clock. Huang Xinliang, the director of the party and government office, specially came over in advance to remind Shen Huai to go to the conference room on the second floor together.

Du Jian and He Qingshe were already seated in the conference room.

Perhaps it was Du Jian who personally presided over the meeting, but no one dared to neglect it. There were already more than ten people sitting in the room. Before Shen Huai pushed open the door and entered, these people all looked over in unison with different expressions.

" This is the new Secretary Shen." Du Jian had been busy reading documents. He raised his head and glanced at Shen Huai. He tapped his fingers on the table as if reminding others to look at him." Director Huang, please introduce everyone to Secretary Shen. Also, remember to remind Secretary Shen that in the future, everyone must arrive fifteen minutes in advance for all meetings that I will attend. This is a rule set by the elders many years ago."

Du Jian's words were so explosive that it was as if a spark could blow up the entire conference room.

Hearing Du Jian's words, He Qingshe smiled in her heart. The news of the broken cup in the morning had already spread. It was a little too late and a little too anxious to show off now…

He did not follow Du Jianzhen to introduce Shen Huai to Huang Xinliang. He stood up with a smile and patted the chair beside him." Secretary Shen, sit here." He turned to look at the people in the conference room and said," Secretary Shen is a talented student who came back from studying in France. He was a lecturer at the Provincial School of Economics for two years. He is very knowledgeable. After that, he was transferred to work in Donghua. He was a rare high-level intellectual in our remote village. The Municipal Party Committee Organization Department and the county recommended Secretary Shen to Meixi to be in charge of the economy. Meixi's economic growth in the past two years has been lagging behind. Like Secretary Du, I hope that Secretary Shen can bring Meixi's economy to a new level..."

As the saying goes, those who watch the show don't mind making things big. When He Qingshe said this, Du Jian's expression became even uglier.

He Qingshe pointed at the heads one by one and introduced Shen Huai to the main officials in the town as well as their responsibilities.

As Du Jian had set the tone the moment he opened his mouth, and the commotion from the cup smashing in the morning was not small, everyone introduced themselves and nodded to greet Shen Huai. No one came over to shake hands with him.

Half an hour later, Huang Xinliang brought Shen Huai a piece of paper and briefly wrote down the topic of discussion for today.

Shen Huai only had time to read through the general topic of discussion. He did not understand it deeply. The first half of the party and government meeting was almost unrelated to him. He sat beside He Qingshe with narrowed eyes and listened to the discussion of others.

He Qingshe didn't say much and would occasionally interject. When they were discussing the debt problem of a village's joint venture to open a brick kiln, He Qingshe suggested that the finance office send someone to help review the accounts. Du Jian interrupted him directly," You don't understand this problem. Let Deputy Town Mayor Huang take charge of this matter…"

Seeing He Qingshe's old face, Shen Huai thought to himself," It was really right to stab Du Jian as soon as he came over. Otherwise, he would become a soft bear. Not only would Du Jian step on him, but the dogs around him would also bite him unscrupulously.

The second half of the meeting was to discuss Shen Huai's responsibilities and the adjustment of personnel in the steel mill.

" Meixi Steel Plant has not improved in the past two years, and its operations are still in trouble. I have to bear most of the responsibility." Du Jian's expression was very ugly. Even if he did not want to mention this topic, it was not up to him to decide. When he spoke, he did not even look at Shen Huai, who was sitting next to He Qingshe.

"I have already submitted a request to the county to resign as the director of the Meixi Steel Plant. The county has agreed in principle and recommended Secretary Shen to replace me as the director of the Meixi Steel Plant. Secretary Shen was an overseas student. Although he was a little young, there were advantages to being young. At least he was motivated. Although he lacked practical work experience, he was knowledgeable. I believe we can run the steel mill better. Next, I hope everyone will accept my resignation from Meixi Steel Plant and appoint Secretary Shen as the director of Meixi Steel Plant…"

" Meixi Steel Plant's profits have declined in the past two years, but you can't bear all the responsibility." Du Jian had just finished speaking when he stood up to defend the injustice." In the past two years, the city no longer supported township enterprises. The loans that Meixi Steel Plant received in the past two years were less than one-fifth of the previous ones. Without funds, there would be no way to carry out technological transformation, no way to expand the scale, and no way to reduce the cost. Secretary Du's hair has turned a lot white because of the loan. It's too unfair for others to put the blame on you…"

" This is Huang Xiaolei, Mayor Huang?" Shen Huai lowered his voice and asked He Qingshe.

He Qingshe nodded.

Shen Huai flipped open the notebook under his hand. There was a list of government workers that Huang Xinliang had given him in the morning. He ticked the name " Huang Xiaolei." Looking back at Huang Xiaolei's enthusiastic performance in the first half of the meeting and the few departments he was in charge of, everyone knew that he was Du Jian's hardcore confidant.

The deputy mayor Huang Xiaolei did not stop talking. The director of the financial department, Han Xingquan, cleared his throat and said,

"In the past two years, the country has taken Huaihai Province as the first tax-sharing pilot. In the past, when the value-added tax belonged to the local government, enterprises could still request tax relief when they were in trouble. No matter how bad the enterprises were, they could at least have enough food and clothing. After the division of taxes, most of the value-added tax went to the central government. The products that were produced had not been sold yet, and it was still unknown whether they could make a profit. The central government directly took 13 points of tax. If the market was good, the central government could take away 13 points of tax. However, the market was not good. The central government did not say that they would refund some of the taxes that were previously levied, but they did not reduce them at all. I'm not saying that Secretary Shen can't do it. There are objective difficulties in front of us. I don't think anyone can manage the steel mill well..."

" Secretary Shen has returned from studying abroad and has the experience of teaching in a university. I think Secretary Shen will have no problem in learning. However, the management of a steel mill is complicated. Secretary Shen has no experience. Isn't the recommendation from the county a little too hasty..." Another person stood up to be Du Jian's cannoneer to attack Shen Huai.

Shen Huai sat there unmoving.

Wasn't it a little too late for Du Jian to counterattack now? Was the safety of the people behind the Municipal Party Secretary Wu Haifeng more important? Was the will of the Municipal Party Secretary Wu Haifeng and the County Party Secretary Tao Jixing more important? Or was the will of the Town Party Secretary Du Jian more important?

Even if Du Jian had the guts to go against Tao Jixing's will, Shen Huai thought that he could at most wait a month and let Tao Jixing transfer Du Jian away.

Indeed, Du Jian did not dare to go against the will of the county party secretary Tao Jixing. He knew what would happen if he went against the organization's intentions, but he was not a soft person to be easily pinched. He asked so many people to stand up and oppose him because he wanted Shen Huai to know that even if Shen Huai got his wish to become the steel mill's factory manager and forced him into a corner, he could still replace the steel mill's factory manager through the party and government meeting.

At the end of the meeting, it seemed like Du Jian was begging everyone to approve the appointment of the director of Shen Huai Steel Plant.

Du Jian then said," I'll add another topic at the last minute. During this period of time, there have been cases of steel mill workers participating in fights in town. The steel mill's security work needs to be strengthened. I propose to remove Wang Gang from his position as the deputy captain of the joint defense team and appoint him as the director of the steel maintenance department. In addition, in the future, the party and government meetings should be based on different topics and involve relevant people to strengthen collective decision-making. For example, if the topic is related to the steel mill, other than Secretary Shen representing the steel mill, the other deputy directors should also be called over to make a decision…"

Shen Huai only smiled coldly at Du Jian's words. He thought that this matter would not stop until he completely stomped this guy down.

Donghua promoted the party-government joint conference system in its subordinate towns and villages in order to prevent the township officials from monopolizing power. Unexpectedly, in Du Jian's hands, it became a tool to manipulate others.

If all the management personnel appointments in the steel mill had to be discussed and approved by the party and government meetings, and the larger matters of the steel mill had to be discussed by the party and government meetings, and the deputy factory had the right to temporarily participate in the party and government meetings, even if Shen Huai became the factory manager of the steel mill as he wished, it would only be a mere decoration. The actual power of the steel plant would definitely continue to be in Du Jian's hands.

Could this be the goal of Wu Haifeng and Tao Jixing? Pushing him to the front as a scapegoat so that they could continue to bite the steel mill and suck its blood? Or was it just that Du Jian himself was unwilling to give up power?

" I reserve my opinion. Everyone is emphasizing the need to strengthen the autonomy of the enterprise. The responsibility system of the manager and factory director has also been mentioned for many years. There is no need for Meixi Town to drive backward." He Qingshe kept her distance from Shen Huai, but she would not go into the same pit as Du Jian. He hoped that he could hide behind and watch the fight between Shen Huai and Du Jian. But if Shen Huai was taken over by Du Jian on the first day, what fun would there be?

"The reform and opening up is like crossing the river by feeling the stones. What we emphasize now may not be correct, and the previous methods may not be completely wrong. The key is that we have the courage to correct our mistakes. "In fact, it seems that we have made some mistakes in the management of the steel mill. However, it is precisely because of this that we have to be brave enough to correct it." Du Jian's voice was calm as he looked at He Qingshe gloomily. Then, he turned his gaze to Shen Huai. Secretary Shen, what about you?"

" Where are the meeting minutes…" Shen Huai looked up at Huang Xinliang, who was in charge of the meeting records, and reached out to flip through the meeting minutes.

Huang Xinliang handed the meeting record book over helplessly. Shen Huai flipped the record book to the front and pointed at the record book. He stared at Du Jian's confidant, Huang Xinliang, and asked,""The steel mill is in a difficult situation today, and Secretary Du also admitted that he has to bear most of the responsibility. Why isn't this recorded? Do you still have Secretary Du in your eyes? Do you still hear Secretary Du's words?”

Shen Huai immediately threw the meeting minutes back in front of Huang Xinliang.

As soon as Shen Huai said this, many people heard a buzzing sound in their ears. The cards were flipped! This kid was too arrogant. Could it be that this sentence on the record could topple Du Jian?

" Remember every word I say." Du Jian was so angry that his face turned pale, but he could not vent the anger in his heart. He pointed at Huang Xinliang and asked him to make up the record. His fingers trembled." If anything happens in the future, I, Du Jian, will take responsibility."

He Qingshe looked at the party and government office director Huang Xinliang whose face had turned green. Then, she looked at the other people in the meeting and kept quiet. She thought to herself, Shen Huai's goal is to beat the dog for the dog to see, right?

At first, He Qingshe thought that Shen Huai was an arrogant person who did not know how to restrain himself. However, at this time, her thoughts changed a little. She guessed that Shen Huai might have already decided to take a tough stance against Du Jian...

"Since Secretary Du said so, then I'll reserve my opinion." Shen Huai responded coldly without looking at Du Jian. He knew that he could not stop Du Jian from carrying out his intentions through the party and government meetings. It was useless to waste his breath on opposing, but he could not soften his stance.

If he couldn't even defeat a group of township officials, how could he accept the Song family again? That would be a disgrace to the Song family.
