"Old Fang, what happened?" Looking at Fang Wentian, Zhao Changtian asked in a deep voice.
Last night, at around ten o'clock, Zhao Changtian received a call from Fang Wentian from Mingyang. On the phone, Fang Wentian told Zhao Changtian in a very solemn tone that he would arrive in Mingyang before six o'clock tomorrow afternoon and discuss important matters with Zhao Changtian.
It can be said that Fang Wentian¡¯s call almost made Zhao Changtian sleepless last night.
Having known Fang Wentian for so long, this is the first time that Zhao Changtian has encountered Fang Wentian treating a matter with such caution. His degree of caution has even surpassed the major case a few months ago. Obviously, from Fang Wentian's tone, Zhao Changtian could clearly feel that what he was going to say would definitely not be a good thing.
But unfortunately, before this, Zhao Changtian had not heard any bad news at all.
Now, Fang Wentian is about to tell the answer, so even with Zhao Changtian's psychological quality, it is inevitable to feel a little uneasy.
"Changtian, my old man sent news last night that Wang Lin will leave Mingyang soon and will no longer wait until the 15th National Congress to step down. The person who will succeed the secretary will be Wen Yang."
Fang Wentian looked solemn and said what he knew in one breath.
With Fang Wentian¡¯s words, Zhao Changtian¡¯s pupils suddenly tightened. This shocking news was so unexpected to him that he couldn't help but be shocked.
Wang Lin left office nearly a year early, and his replacement was Governor Wen Yang. What does this mean to him? Zhao Changtian naturally knew it very well. Similarly, Fang Wentian also had a great influence. This is no wonder why Fang Wentian treats this matter so carefully.
"The new acting governor has been confirmed. He is Ding Haoran, the former executive vice governor of Southwest Province. Although this person was not from the Wen family before, he was promoted this time. He has received strong support from the Wen family."
Before Zhao Changtian could fully digest the previous news, Fang Wentian dropped another bombshell.
¡°According to my old man, the Wen family made great sacrifices for the layout of Bac Ninh Province this time, and even gave up the fight for the governor of Southwest Province, which they had great control over.¡±
Fang Wentian continued.
Zhao Changtian¡¯s expression really changed. If what Fang Wentian said is true, then the situation is simply too bad. But Zhao Changtian knew it clearly. What Fang Wentian said cannot be false. On such an important issue, with Fang Wentian's rigorous personality, he must have been certain before coming to tell him personally.
¡°A provincial party committee secretary, plus a provincial governor who is close to the provincial party committee secretary, these two people join forces within the scope of Bac Ninh Province. Who can resist?
For a time, even Zhao Changtian, who now considered himself very powerful, felt a little timid and his expression changed.
After finishing telling the bad news, Fang Wentian smoked a cigarette with a worried look on his face. He knew that Zhao Changtian digested the news. It takes a certain amount of time.
"Approximately how long will it take?"
I don¡¯t know how much time passed, Zhao Changtian took a long breath and asked in a solemn voice.
"According to the old man, there is still a month at most." Fang Wentian responded with a grimace.
"The old man means to let me leave Beining, but I am really unwilling to do so. But so what if I stay, it will be difficult to have a good result."
When it came to the last sentence, the bitterness on Fang Wentian¡¯s face seemed to have solidified.
Hearing this, Zhao Changtian already understood the plan of his old friend in front of him, which was to escape from Beining, a place of right and wrong. Frankly speaking, this choice is absolutely rational and correct. With the energy of the Fang family, it would not be very difficult for Fang Wentian to be transferred to other provinces or even central ministries.
Although such a choice for Fang Wentian is, to a large extent, equivalent to throwing away the good situation created some time ago, but compared to being completely suppressed, marginalized, or even annihilated in the future, it is already So much better.
Since Fang Wentian plans to leave with the support of his family¡¯s huge background, what should he do? The situation was clear, and he had only two options. The first option was to stay and fight a war with almost no chance of winning? The second option is to seek help from Grandpa Er or Li Baoguo, or to escape from Jinshi or even Beining.
How to choose? The smart thing to do is to make the second choice. After all, the enemy we face this time is too powerful. If we choose the first choice, it means facing the enemy head-on. It is almost a situation where the enemy is attacking with an egg against a stone. There is a high possibility that It will cause you to fall into the sand, and it is very likely that the status you have finally achieved in the officialdom will be stripped to the bottom, or even be completely kicked out of the officialdom.
And if you choose the second option, it will be very difficult for you.?, that is, to temporarily avoid the enemy's sharp edge and go to other places to develop. With our own abilities, I believe that it will not take long to create a good situation.
"Changtian, my idea is that you should leave too. As long as you nod, I will ask my old man to transfer you away from Beining. I believe that with your ability, you can quickly adapt to the situation no matter where you work."
Just when Zhao Changtian was extremely troubled in his heart, Fang Wentian's voice sounded at the right time.
¡°And a decision must be made early, otherwise, once Wen Yang and Ding Haoran officially take over, it will be very difficult to make plans.¡±
Looking at Zhao Changtian, Fang Wentian gave his advice very seriously.
"Thank you, Lao Fang!"
Zhao Changtian responded gratefully. He could feel that Fang Wentian's words came from the heart, and he was truly thinking about him, his friend and political ally. Of course, Fang Wentian didn't know that he also had a powerful background that was not inferior to that of the Fang family. Otherwise, he would not have asked his old man for help.
"Lao Fang, to be honest, if there is no other way, I really don't want to leave Jushi and Beining in despair. I think you and I should have the same idea."
After a pause, Zhao Changtian continued: "Do you think that if we stay, there is really no possibility of competing?"
"No, not at all possible." Fang Wentian shook his head decisively.
"In fact, I have been thinking about this issue from last night until now, and I have come to the conclusion that as far as the situation between you and me in Beining is concerned, unless you can get Li Dajiang away before Wen Yang comes to power, And take advantage of the trend to reach another level, and I can replace Qu Baoqiang's position and enter the Standing Committee. Only in this way, we may be able to barely protect ourselves, but is this possible?"
Speaking of the last sentence, Fang Wentian's voice clearly contained a self-deprecating tone. In his opinion, the response plan he came up with after much thought was simply a pipe dream and not even remotely feasible.
