Qiao Zhenliang smiled and said, "The real stars today are not those of us who are leaders, but the actors who work hard to perform for us. They have contributed a wonderful performance to everyone, let us thank them with applause!"

Everyone applauded with Qiao Zhenliang, and Qiao Zhenliang said again: "The year 1997 is about to usher in. Under the wise command of the Central Leader of Zhonghexiong and the joint efforts of the people of the whole province, we have achieved one set goal after another and successfully completed Pinghai's 1996 annual goal. I believe that in the coming 97 years, our Pinghai will turn a more brilliant and brilliant page. The next year will surely be a year for Pinghai to accelerate its takeoff. In the next year, I will continue to rudder the big ship of Pinghai, self-discipline, dedicate my own efforts, and die until my death!"

Qiao Zhenliang's speech won warm applause as always, but everyone could hear that Qiao Zhenliang's words seemed to be a solemn statement, refuting all rumors about him.

This New Year's concert held in the CPPCC Auditorium was broadcast simultaneously for Pinghai and the whole province. Many people have seen Qiao Zhenliang's impromptu speech. In fact, even if you don't pay attention to this concert, TV news, radio and newspapers, it will focus on reporting this matter.

Song Huaiming heard this speech on the evening news that day. He realized that unusual meaning was from it. Although Qiao Zhenliang's words clearly pointed at him, anyone with a heart can hear his spearhead. This is not a good omen. Song Huaiming knew in his heart that under the current situation, Qiao Zhenliang would definitely take all necessary measures to reverse the situation that was unfavorable to him. As a mature politician, the best way is to fight. The so-called battle is to choose a target and give his political enemies a heavy blow. Unfortunately, Qiao Zhenliang chose himself.

Although the New Year concert that day arranged a reporter's questioning session, the reporter from the provincial station obviously did not dare to involve the sensitive issues surrounding the Qiao family recently. Qiao Zhenliang was mentally prepared for everything. When answering the questions, he showed that his performance tonight would inevitably be defined as a show by many people. Qiao Zhenliang didn't mind. In fact, who is not on the official court? Showing can achieve two goals for political enemies, one is confusion and the other is shock. He wanted to tell everyone through this public show that he had the final say in Pinghai in the future.

Back in his Hongqi car, Qiao Zhenliang suddenly relaxed. To be precise, it should not be relaxation, but a kind of fatigue like paralysis. Any subtle changes in Qiao Zhenliang could not be hidden from Yan Guotao's eyes. Although the car was very dark, Yan Guotao felt the tension and solemn smell from his breath.

The car was heading towards the direction of the Provincial Party Committee’s Family Court. When it was about to arrive at Ningjing Road, Qiao Zhenliang said: "Go to the riverside for a walk."

Yan Guotao was a little surprised. Now is the coldest time in the Dongjiang River in the year. Qiao Zhenliang chose to go to the riverside at this time. He did not ask any questions. Although he felt that Qiao Zhenliang's actions were unusual, he was Qiao Zhenliang's most loyal follower in the past and present, and he always respected Secretary Qiao's decision.

The red flag car drove into the Jiangtan Park. In such a season and night, the entire Jiangtan Park was empty and there was no sign of any tourists. Qiao Zhenliang pushed open the car door and walked down, and he whispered: "Guotao!" This sentence means that no one else except Yan Guotao should follow him.

The two of them came to the riverside one after another. The river wind was strong in the late winter night, and the tide of the river water was wet. Qiao Zhenliang felt a cold that penetrated his bone marrow, but this feeling made him awake. Qiao Zhenliang bent down with a childlike heart, grabbed a pebble, threw it out with all his might. The pebble was thrown into the dark middle of the river, and there was no wave or the sound of falling into the water. Qiao Zhenliang said: "What a stupid thing it would be if a person wanted to use a stone to cut off the endless river water."

Yan Guotao said: "There must be someone behind Kong Yuan."

Qiao Zhenliang stood up with a smile, facing the vast river with his hands on his hips: "The reason why he is not afraid is not that he thinks I can't cure him."

Yan Guotao moved closer.

Qiao Zhenliang said: "I came to Pinghai for a long time, nor did I say it short. If you want to manage Pinghai well, you must first manage the officials under my jurisdiction. I dare not say that I have 100% understanding of everyone, but I believe that many people don't even know them as well as me."

Yan Guotao was speechless. He believed that he belonged to the category that Qiao Zhenliang mentioned.

Qiao Zhenliang said: "Kong Yuan is a person with some abilities and is considered conscientious at work, but I know what his faults are. There must be many people who know why I want to allow someone with problems in lifestyle to work by my side?"

Yan Guotao still didn't say anything, but he understood that the reason why Qiao Zhenliang was holding Kong Yuan's shortcomings was because he held Kong Yuan's handle. If Kong Yuan did not act according to his intentions, he could kick Kong Yuan out at any time. Qiao Zhenliang always advocated to tolerate the shortcomings of comrades. In fact, only by mastering the shortcomings of his subordinates can better control be achieved. If a person's subordinates are all elites and all perfect and flawless players, then he may not be able to control the team well.

Qiao Zhenliang said: "Kong Yuan is not afraid because he has predicted his ending. He is now just a chess piece that has been used."

Yan Guotao whispered: "Secretary Qiao, you suspect Song..."

Qiao Zhenliang laughed: "Guotao, what do you think?"

Yan Guotao shook his head and whispered: "I think it will be the person behind him!"

Qiao Zhenliang said: "No matter who it is, this battle must be fought. Since the bullet is loaded, we cannot waste it." He suddenly turned around, stared at Yan Guotao with bright eyes and said: "Fight the little ghost first, then the King of Yan!"

When Kong Yuan was planning how he would go next, he learned that his nephew Kang Cheng was arrested by the public security organ for stealing electricity and evading taxes. The news was revealed to him by Gao Zhonghe, the director of the Public Security Department. If the photos were still under Kong Yuan's expectations, the news was beyond Kong Yuan's expectations. He thought that Huiyuan's affairs had been completely calmed down and all the matters were taken over by Liang Zi alone. After she escaped, all the charges were counted on her. Even if the electricity was stealing electricity and evading taxes, it would not be serious enough to alarm the Provincial Public Security Department. Kong Yuan understood that Qiao Zhenliang was using the same method to deal with him.

He also treats others with his own way. Every politician understands the principles of learning and applying them. At the beginning of attending the New Year concert, he has decided to do several things, and these things must be done one by one. His understanding of Kong Yuan is far beyond Kong Yuan's imagination.

The next morning, after the provincial party committee went to work, Kong Yuan went to Qiao Zhenliang's office. The photos Liu Zhao took out did not threaten him, but he couldn't ignore Kang Cheng's affairs.

When Qiao Zhenliang heard that Kong Yuan came to see him, he only said one sentence: "Let him wait outside!"

For this sentence, Kong Yuan waited outside for an hour and a half.

Qiao Zhenliang's purpose of humiliating Kong Yuan was not to exude anger in his heart. Waiting would make a person's calm collapse, waiting would make a person hesitant, waiting would make a person push his original ideas, waiting would be a torment for Kong Yuan at this time.

However, Kong Yuan is by no means an idiot. At least on the surface, he still showed calmness. Although he knew that Qiao Zhenliang had captured his life gate and Kong Yuan could no longer care about his political future, he could not watch Kang Cheng fall into prison and ignore it.

Seeing Kong Yuan coming in, Qiao Zhenliang said calmly: "Here you come, sit down!"

Kong Yuan smiled. He wanted to sit, but found that there was no other chair to sit in the office except the seat under Qiao Zhenliang's butt. On the sofa, I didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional to throw a party flag. No matter how brave Kong Yuan was, he would not dare to sit under the party flag. So Kong Yuan could only stand. Even so, the smile on his face was still so calm and calm.

Qiao Zhenliang said, "I heard about you! Old Confucius, I won't be safe in my later years!" Qiao Zhenliang slapped the face as soon as he came up, and slapped the face nakedly. For Kong Yuan, he was the one who was on the top position. The one who was on the top position looked down on you, and of course he would not consider leaving a mercy anymore.

Kong Yuan said: "I came here today to review it specifically with Secretary Qiao."

Qiao Zhenliang smiled and said, "Actually you shouldn't look for me."

Kong Yuan said: "You are my leader. Even if I want to explain the problem, I must first explain it to you. There must be no sloppy organization."

Qiao Zhenliang didn't have the patience to continue to go around the corner with him and whispered: "Are you coming to me for yourself or for Kang Cheng?" This sentence is equivalent to telling Kong Yuan clearly that he did what Kang Cheng did.

Kong Yuan said: "Kang Cheng is my nephew. I admit that I have given some help in his business operations, but Liang Zi has always been responsible for the specific management of Huiyuan Hotel, and it has nothing to do with him..."

Qiao Zhenliang raised his right hand and signaled Kong Yuan not to continue talking. He smiled and said, "Kang Cheng doesn't seem to be your nephew, right?"

Kong Yuan was slightly stunned, his heart was beating constantly. Did Qiao Zhenliang already know such a secret thing?

Qiao Zhenliang said: "He is the son of your little sister-in-law, so it's hard for you to care so much about him." His words were full of sarcasm.

Kong Yuan said: "Secretary Qiao, I watched this child grow up and treat him like my own son."
