Qi Tongwei: Sign-in relationship started during student days

Chapter 1029 Seeing One's True Nature, Seeing One's "Old Surname"

This scene was many times grander than the one he had seen on television a week ago when Xia Guanglei inspected the city—back then, only the top official of Haikou City appeared to greet him, and although the scene was solemn, it seemed rather deserted.

He knew perfectly well that Haikou's actions were clear-cut and undisguised, which pleased him but also made him somewhat worried.

Isn't that too flashy?

Qi Tongwei got out of the car. Although he was very satisfied with Haikou City's attitude, he criticized, "What is this all about? Huh? Quickly have someone remove all of this. From now on, when I get out of the car, I'll be more casual and not do this kind of pretentious thing."

Upon hearing this, Shi Youzhi's smile remained unchanged as he explained, "Mayor, please don't misunderstand. These banners and crowds weren't arranged by us. They were all spontaneously created by the people."

"Our Beishan and Haikou are what they are today thanks to you. The people are grateful to you and all want to come and meet you in person. We can't stop them."

Even knowing that the contents were exaggerated, Qi Tongwei still made a show of waving to the people.

The people burst into enthusiastic applause.

Shi Youzhi said hopefully, "Mayor Qi, please say a few words so that the people can hear your voice."

Qi Tongwei was taken aback. He looked at Shi Youzhi's expectant gaze, then at the group of sincere faces. He thought for a moment and realized that it had been a long time since he had been so close to ordinary people.

What kind of "nature" is being seen when one seeks enlightenment and enlightenment? Isn't it just the "ordinary people"?

If you don't even see ordinary people and sit in a high-rise building looking down on everyone, are you still a public servant who claims to serve the people?

Qi Tongwei's thoughts suddenly became clearer, and he stopped walking.

"Then... say a few words?"

"Please."

Shi Youzhi quickly called on the security personnel to prepare.

Qi Tongwei straightened his clothes and walked towards the crowd, which immediately stirred and shouted.

"Mayor Qi, Mayor Qi."

Some of the bolder ones squeezed past the security personnel and reached out to Qi Tongwei, wanting to shake his hand.

Shi Youzhi said, "Mayor, look how enthusiastic the people are."

Qi Tongwei nodded, took a few steps forward, and shook hands with the people who reached out their hands.

This scene excited the people even more, and they all reached out their hands. Qi Tongwei accepted everyone's hand and shook hands with as many people as possible.

"Snap." The light flashed, and the reporter took the perfect moment to capture this photo that symbolized the close relationship between officials and the people.

Qi Tongwei was deeply moved, thinking that the Chinese people are always so simple and honest.

If you treat them sincerely, they will be willing to endure hardship with you and fight alongside you. They will also support, admire, and tolerate you.

Yet so many corrupt officials have betrayed the simple feelings of ordinary people, treating them like fools or easy targets.

After exchanging pleasantries with the local people and saying a few words, Qi Tongwei, surrounded by the Haikou municipal party and government leadership, entered the municipal government building.

"Alright, let them all leave. Comrade Mingyuan, Comrade Youzhi, you two can stay with me."

Tang Mingyuan is the current Party Secretary of Haikou (a county-level city). He took office just two months ago. He is Xu Lian's man and can be considered part of Qi Tongwei's faction.

As for the former municipal party secretary, he has now been transferred to a minor bureau in the city and is effectively sidelined.

He Anxia did all of this.

Because he is Lin Gangjian's man.

After the whistleblower letter incident, He Anxia launched a crackdown on Lin Gangjian's faction, and the municipal party secretary was not spared.

The three people entered the office, one in front and two behind.

Qi Tongwei first listened to the two men's brief report on the situation in Haikou.

Shi Youzhi reported: "Haikou's aquaculture industry has achieved great success."

Some short-term aquatic products, such as bay scallops, Weihai sea cucumbers, Liaoning sea cucumbers, wrinkled abalone, and Rushan oysters, have entered their maturity period and will be available on the market next spring, bringing tax revenue and income to Haikou.

In addition, we have already signed acquisition agreements with several relevant companies in advance, so there is no need to worry about the risk of unsold inventory.

Next year, we plan to increase investment and expand the breeding area.
