He turned to Propaganda Minister Huang Bucheng and said: "Comrade Bucheng, propaganda work is the top priority. Under the current circumstances, most of the people are panicked. We must convey the Party’s policies to them in a timely manner and make the people have confidence in our government. Only in this way can they ignite hope for life and reignite the motivation for work."

Huang Bucheng nodded and recorded it very seriously in the notebook.

Gong Huanshan said again: "There are often major epidemics after major disasters, and this must be strengthened. Comrade Xu Kun focuses on this."

Deputy Mayor Xu Kun has always been in charge of culture, education and hygiene. This is his job, and Xu Kun nodded.

Gong Huanshan said: "Also, we must inspect the safety conditions of primary and secondary schools across the city, and arrange students to resume classes as soon as possible while ensuring that there are no hidden dangers in teaching facilities."

Xu Kun said: "This is already done."

Gong Huanshan nodded and turned his eyes to Zhao Guoqiang and said, "The public security issue after the disaster is a difficult point. Comrade Guoqiang must strengthen this work. All the public security officers are busy with disaster relief and rescue and are also responsible for public security work. Thank you for your hard work."

Zhao Guoqiang said: "Don't worry, Mayor Gong, we guarantee to complete the task."

Gong Huanshan noticed that he still called him Mayor Gong rather than Secretary Gong. In fact, Gong Huanshan didn't mind in his heart. Many twists in his life happened suddenly, and he suddenly saw through fame and fortune. If Xiang Cheng was still alive, he would be his mayor of Beigang. If Gong Qiwei was still alive, he would never have the idea of ​​competition. Others would not understand such a change, and only he himself would know it.

Gong Huanshan's eyes finally fell on Zhang Yang: "Comrade Zhang Yang, Binhai is the most severely affected place in Beigang. For Binhai, the bonded area has become a severely affected area. The newly built infrastructure has been severely damaged, and investors from all parties have suffered losses to varying degrees. So while you are doing a good job in disaster relief, you must also communicate with investors and strive to gain their understanding. Let them believe that our government is a responsible government and has the ability to protect their interests."

Zhang Yang nodded. Without saying anything, his mind was still very messy.

After Gong Huanshan finished speaking, he looked around and said, "Do you have anything else to say?"

There was silence on the scene.

Gong Huanshan said again: "If you have any ideas, just speak freely and don't have any scruples."

Still no one spoke, Gong Huanshan nodded and said, "Okay, today's meeting will end here, and the meeting will be over!"

After the meeting, Zhao Guoqiang and Zhang Yang came to Xingang together. The two parked the car at the dock and stood in the sun. Looking at the sea that had recovered from peace in front of them, Zhao Guoqiang narrowed his eyes and pointed to the front right: "Xiang Cheng's body was found there."

Zhang Yang nodded, walked forward a few steps, and whispered: "Suicide?"

Zhao Guoqiang said: "It should be like this based on inference. However, there is still a lack of strong evidence!"

Zhang Yang said: "He set up a trap and framed Deputy Secretary Gong."

Zhao Guoqiang said: "Can you talk about what happened?"

Zhang Yang said: "Like Secretary Gong, I am a person who hates evil, and the relationship between us is not what others see."

Zhao Guoqiang said: "I have guessed it long ago that you cooperated happily when you were in Nancy, and you also saved Secretary Gong's daughter. With your good relationship at the beginning, you will never deteriorate to this level in the short term."

Zhang Yang sighed. Since Zhao Guoqiang could see it, it proved that some others must have seen various clues.

Zhao Guoqiang said: "Now all the spearheads and suspicious fights are pointed at Xiang Cheng."

"There must be someone behind him."

Zhao Guoqiang said: "Even if someone instructs me, not many people know this person's true identity. Once Xiang Cheng dies, many clues will be interrupted."

Zhang Yang said: "I won't let this person get away with it."

Zhao Guoqiang said: "Do you know who this person is?"

Zhang Yang shook his head: "I can't talk nonsense about things without evidence."

Zhao Guoqiang sighed and said, "Actually, Secretary Gong did not sacrifice his life for nothing. After this incident, the mastermind behind the scenes may give up his interests in Beigang."

Zhang Yang said: "I won't give up!"

Zhao Guoqiang looked at Zhang Yang's eyes and took the initiative to reach out to him. The two of them did not speak, and they held each other's hands together, and they understood each other's hearts.

That afternoon, Gong Qiwei's widow Yang Ning brought his daughter Gong Yaxin to Beigang. The mother and daughter showed strength beyond ordinary people, but their eyes were red but no tears were shed.

Zhang Yang looked at Yang Ning, pursed his lips, and said with sadness: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry!"

Yang Ning whispered: "No one blames his own choice! You don't need to apologize to me."

The strength of the mother and daughter finally collapsed when they saw Gong Qiwei's remains. Yang Ning burst into tears and Gong Yaxin fainted from crying. Seeing the scene in front of her, Zhang Yang and Zhao Guoqiang, who were in charge of accompanying her, their eyes were red. They finally persuaded them to return to the lounge.

Yang Ning calmed down a little, took a cup of tea handed to her by Zhang Yang, and whispered: "Zhang Yang, there were many rumors outside before, saying that you had a conflict with Qiwei, but I know that's not the case."

Zhang Yang said: "Sister-in-law, Secretary Gong will always be my most respected elder brother and friend."

Yang Ning said: "I asked Qiwei, and he said that you are his good brother. I know that you must be working hard for the future of Beigang. Qiwei has no blessings and has not been able to stick to the end. I know the wish in his heart. I am just a woman and cannot complete it for him. This is all up to you..."

Zhang Yang nodded vigorously and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely be responsible for Secretary Gong's affairs to the end."

Gong Yaxin said with tears in her eyes: "Uncle Zhang, was my dad killed by someone?"

Zhang Yang shook his head. They had communicated with Yang Ning before. They had to hide Gong Qiwei's real cause of death from Gong Yaxin. This was also to protect the child and avoid her tender heart from being hurt. Zhang Yang said: "Your father is a hero. He died on duty in order to command disaster relief and rescue. The organization has decided to recognize the title of Secretary Gong as a martyr."

Yang Ning said, "Thank you to the organization and all the leaders. We don't want this title. When Qiwei was alive, he never participated in even an advanced selection. We don't want this honorary title after death."

Zhao Guoqiang couldn't help but say, "Sister-in-law, this is what Secretary Gong deserves, and it is also the organization's recognition and affirmation of his achievements."

Yang Ning said: "Qiwei is decisive at work, but he is a quiet person at heart. As long as he has time, he always chooses to stay at home, go to the kitchen, wash clothes. He said that one day he retires, he will be a housewife at home and enjoy a simple life..." Yang Ning covered his lips and suppressed the urge to cry again: "He left us, I want him to leave quietly. We don't want any honor or report, because no matter how great the honor is, it cannot be exchanged for Qiwei's life. We don't want to spread publicity, nor do we need any grand memorial service. He came to Beigang quietly, but now let us take him away quietly. As family members, we just want to remember him quietly. We don't need anything else. Do you understand?"

Gong Yaxin was already crying.

Zhao Guoqiang and Zhang Yang were both moved by it, and Zhang Yang nodded and said, "Sister-in-law, I promise you!"

There were no wreaths, no memorial service, and no major newspaper reports. Yang Ning and his daughter quietly left Beigang with Gong Qiwei's ashes. When they left Beigang with their vehicles, more than ten cars followed silently and all the way to the exit of the expressway. Gong Huanshan, Zhao Guoqiang, and Zhang Yang, all the members and main leaders of Beigang City got off the car, and then they lined up and bowed deeply to the vehicles leaving ahead.

Gong Qiwei has not been in Beigang for a long time. In a sense, his departure is not even as shocking as Xiang Cheng's departure has given to the citizens of Beigang. Only a few people know the truth about his death, but his character and character are still admired by the Beigang leadership.

The driver slowed down his speed. Yang Ning saw the scene behind from the reflector. She did not cry, but just hugged the urn silently and said softly: "Qiwei, let's go home..."

Although the tsunami has passed, the shock in Beigang has not subsided.

Yuanhe Group formally filed a withdrawal from the Binhai Municipal Government and requested compensation for the losses of the tsunami.

Zhang Yang had just returned to the administrative center and heard about this news. Yuanhe Group's representative Yuanhe Qiuzhi is currently negotiating with Qiao Mengyuan in the Investment Promotion Office.

Zhang Yang walked outside the office of the director of the investment promotion office and heard Qiao Mengyuan's righteous voice: "Mr. Yuanhe, is it for you to come on behalf of Yuanhe Group or for you personally? The legal representative of Yuanhe Group is Yuanhe Sakiko, not you."

Motowa Akira said: "Motowa Sakiko has authorized me before returning to Japan to let me act as an agent to execute all the powers of the Motowa Group in China, so I can represent the Motowa Group."

Qiao Mengyuan said: "The contract has already stated the regulations in advance. When an unpredictable disaster occurs, the losses will be borne by both parties, so your claims do not have any theoretical basis. Also, according to our formal contract, if Yuanhe Group chooses to withdraw now, it is a breach of contract, and we reserve the right to hold you accountable."

Yuan Heqiu said straight: "Is it a threat? We have lost so much property and so many employees in this disaster. Who will invest their funds in a piece of land that cannot be guaranteed for safety? This is our group's statement and claim details..."
