The side supporting He Zhilong is dominated by Sheng Zhi, with Tang Shengyuan, Li Xuehong, Lu Xiaoda and Sun Tiefeng all siding with Sheng Zhi.

On Zuo Zhenghua's side, Mayor Li Genhuo, Executive Vice Mayor Wu Xiangzhuo, Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission Wang Jianyou, and United Front Minister Zhang Jun all have the same views.

As a result, among the nine members of the Standing Committee, the ratio is 5 to 4, and Sheng Will is weak and powerful.

Lian Mingyu meant that he and Li Yuanlang abstained from voting and became centrists, thus becoming the targets of all parties' efforts to win over.

This is a proactive approach.

Li Yuanlang understood, "Deputy Mayor Lian, you want us to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers."

"That's right." Lian Mingyu agreed: "The He brothers control almost half of the economic lifeline of Huaicheng. Deputy Secretary Li, brothers He Wenman and He Wenjiang are just ordinary people. Without the support of officials behind them, it would be difficult to achieve what they have achieved today."

"The situation in Huaicheng is complicated. Even if people support He Zhilong, it does not necessarily mean that they are in cahoots with the He family. On the contrary, agreeing with Zuo Zhenghua and his family does not guarantee that they are against the He family."

"When it is unclear whether we are friend or foe, our best strategy is to use static braking."

After listening to Lian Mingyu's analysis, Li Yuanlang asked: "What do you mean, He Zhilong is from the He family?"

"Yes, he is He Wenman's youngest son."

This is really the case.

Li Yuanlang was not surprised. When he heard the surname "He", his first thought was whether it was related to the brothers of the He family.

He Wenman's son pursued an official career, which is a common practice among many wealthy people.

They will nominate someone within the family to serve in politics.

First of all, being an official in your own family will not only bring good reputation, but also open the door to convenience and add icing on the cake to the family business.

On the other hand, officials can grasp the direction of policies and even know some top-secret information. This is of great help to the family in formulating business directions and avoiding pitfalls.

All in all, there are only advantages and no disadvantages.

Anyway, the family is not short of money. If you use money to clear the way, your career will be very smooth.

In their words, this is an investment.

Li Yuanlang raised his glass and asked, "What do you think about the shopping card given by the He family?"

Lian Mingyu took a sip of wine and said slowly: "Throwing stones to ask for directions. That card of yours should have a denomination of 20,000, right?"

"Exactly."

"Twenty thousand yuan is neither too much nor too little. He is testing you. If he gives you a shopping card worth 108,000 yuan at once, you must be wary." Lian Mingyu said playfully: "If you refuse, others will take it.

, you will be isolated. If you take it, you will have a disadvantage in their hands."

Li Yuanlang frowned slightly and said secretly: "Did the He family bribe all the city leaders?"

But from the tone, Lian Mingyu seemed to have taken it, so he asked: "Can I tell you how much you have?"

Lian Mingyu raised his left hand and slowly clenched it into a fist.

One hundred thousand!

Li Yuanlang was shocked!

Darling, what a big gesture!

However, Li Yuanlang was confused about how to deal with this shopping card.

Next, the two of them conducted an in-depth analysis of the current situation in Huaicheng.

However, despite Li Yuanlang's lies, Lian Mingyu never revealed his true identity.

Li Yuanlang had already guessed that Lian Mingyu must be a relative of some important person, and even his children were not surprised.

The key is, whose family does he belong to?

Lu Linsong must know that Li Yuanlang would not take the initiative to ask if he didn't tell him.

This old father-in-law is the kind of person who says what should be said and what should not be said without revealing a single word.

At about the same time, the He Group was in a club on the outskirts of the city.

The splendid living room is brightly lit.

He Wenman, chairman of the group, is about sixty years old.

He is not tall and has shiny black hair.

Deputy Director He Wenjiang is the exact opposite of his brother. He is tall, muscular and has a sinister appearance.

The two brothers were sitting on chairs smoking and chatting when He Zhilong hurried in from outside and said, "Dad, uncle, they are here."

& nbs span; He Wenman wiped out half a smoke in the pure gold ashtray, waved, "Wenjiang, let's welcome it."

The two brothers walked out one after another and walked to the door of the club building accompanied by He Zhilong.

They saw a black Mercedes-Benz car slowly driving over and stopping steadily in front of them.

Someone had already run over and opened the car door, and one person stepped out from the left and right sides of the back seat.

The leaders were Lu Xiaoda, secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, and Yang Min, the deputy mayor and director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, who was dressed in casual clothes.

"Secretary Lu, Wenman is very grateful to Vice Mayor Yang for taking time out of his busy schedule to visit me."

He Wenman took the initiative to shake hands with Lu Xiaoda and Yang Min.

Later, the two shook hands with He Wenjiang and He Zhilong respectively.

A group of people gathered around Lu Xiaoda and Yang Min through the lobby, up the spiral staircase, and into the living room.

Expensive imported carpets were spread on the floor. He Wenman first let Lu and Yang into the gilded sandalwood antique chairs and started talking.

Smoking a cigarette, Lu Xiaoda said bluntly: "Director He, to tell you the truth, Zhilong's appointment was successful at the meeting today, and his wish was finally fulfilled."

"Secretary Lu, Vice Mayor Yang, I will never forget your help to Zhilong. Come here!" He Wenman waved, and someone brought a tray with two keys on it.

"This is the safe I prepared for the two leaders at Pujing Bank. When you go there for recreation, the contents inside can come in handy."

He Wenman did not mention a word of money, but Lu Xiaoda and Yang Min knew very well that with He Wenman's generosity, the amount of money in the safe was enough for them to gamble happily.

"Director He, you are too polite." Lu Xiaoda did not take the initiative to get it, but Yang Min also said polite words.

"The help of the two leaders to Zhilong is a great benefactor to our He family. This thing is not worth mentioning. We will have many opportunities for cooperation in the future."

When they were almost done talking, the food was put on the table, and the five of them walked to the banquet hall together.

On the way, Yang Min whispered to He Wenjiang: "Lao He, please tell your people to calm down recently. There is a problem with Chen Xiangshui."

He Wenjiang was stunned, "So fast?"

"It's fast enough. If we do it during the Chinese New Year, it means the higher-ups are already angry." Yang Min was worried and looked serious.

After the guests and hosts were seated, He Wenjiang told He Wenman about the incident.

He Wenman frowned, nodded slightly and said: "It doesn't matter, we and Chen Xiangshui have already been separated, and we can't be implicated."

"Director He, if this is the case, we will be relieved." Lu Xiaoda let out a long breath and his face became relaxed.

"Let's not talk about it anymore. Let's talk about something happy." He Wenjiang said angrily: "Just now Secretary Lu mentioned the meeting, and Secretary Zhilong even nodded. Mayor Li still wants to interfere with it. It's really not fun. The He family

He is not going to give it away."

"Wen Jiang, don't talk nonsense." He Wenman glared displeased, "Secretary Lu, Deputy Mayor Yang, Deputy District Chief Zhilong, there were big changes a year ago, and we have made two preparations. But it seems

, it’s no longer needed now.”

Yang Min took over the conversation and said: "On the way here, Secretary Lu talked to me about this matter. To be honest, it is really unexpected that the newcomers Li Yuanlang and Lian Mingyu abstained from voting."

He Wenman knew about Lian Mingyu, but he was still confused about Deputy Secretary Li.

Lu Xiaoda said angrily: "Li Yuanlang is a very difficult person. During the last incident at the police station, his secretary downloaded the video. I asked him for help, but he didn't give me any face and just kicked me back."

"I went to see Secretary Sheng for comment, but Secretary Sheng told me to pay attention to unity. I really don't understand. He was the one who blocked the news, and he was the one who investigated and dealt with the leaker. Why is the implementation standard different for Li Yuanlang."

Yang Min followed suit, "Secretary Lu is right. Secretary Li Yuanlang not only downloaded it, but is also suspected of spreading it. According to Secretary Sheng's request, he will be investigated."

He Wenman was speechless. He Wenjiang couldn't sit still and asked eagerly: "What is the name of Li Yuanlang's secretary? I will send someone to deliver something to him later."

Everyone knew that what He Wenjiang meant by giving something was not a gift, it was definitely threatening in nature.

"You should take a break." He Wenman glared at his younger brother, "You haven't caused us enough trouble. From now on, use your brain more and less fists."

Yang Min seriously warned: "Old He, you must keep a watch on the woman named Wang and don't let her come out for the time being, so as not to talk nonsense."
