Reborn as Zhao Ruilong of Handong, I will defy fate.

Chapter 388 Ambitious Gao Yuliang! Wealthy and Powerful Kong Zhiyong!



Chapter 388 Ambitious Gao Yuliang! Wealthy and Powerful Kong Zhiyong!

Li Dakang's eyes were eager.

Those eyes were filled with a longing for progress.

Perhaps it was because of such intense desire that he became somewhat overtly assertive.

After taking two steps back, Gao Yuliang walked up to Li Dakang.

“Ruilong is very busy. I haven’t seen him in a long time and we haven’t been in contact at all.”

“His daughter was born a couple of days ago, and I just asked Teacher Wu to congratulate him on my behalf.”

"He didn't reveal anything to me, and I didn't rack my brains to find out any information in Jingzhou."

"I just had a feeling that Huo Siteng, whose son was already in prison, would get into trouble sooner or later, that's all."

Li Dakang nodded.

He believed Gao Yuliang's words.

Gao Yuliang, who comes from an academic background, possesses the integrity and character of a scholar.

You could say he's good at sophistry, but there's really no need to doubt that he's lying.

Thinking about it carefully, it's clear that Huo Siteng, who is in the limelight too much, will only have two outcomes.

Either make progress or get in.

There was no third outcome.

But when his own son gets into trouble, the father is completely unaffected and can even go further...

No matter how you look at it, this seems highly unlikely.

Under the same roof.

How can a father be completely unaware that his son is making a fortune and indulging in food, drink, and entertainment?

Even if they did not collude with the criminals, they still failed to report the information, which constitutes the crime of shielding and condoning wrongdoing, and they have betrayed the trust of the organization.

Over the past few months, Jingzhou has been vigorously carrying out in-depth reforms.

It seems now.

Perhaps it was Hotten making its last, desperate struggle.

Or perhaps he wanted to take advantage of his remaining power to make a fortune.

In any case, if he fails to take the crucial step of becoming a vice-governor, he will inevitably end up being utterly destroyed.

Unfortunately……

I hadn't realized the situation before, and I thought he was really going to be promoted.

In the morning, I was in a rush to greet people and exchange pleasantries.

Thinking about it now, I feel really ashamed.

"Well, if something really happens to him, Lao Gao, you might be transferred to Jingzhou immediately!"

Gao Yuliang smiled calmly.

"Dakang Shuji, are you kidding me?"

We don't know if he's in any trouble.

"Even if something really happens, I believe the provincial committee will make proper arrangements."

Li Dakang nodded repeatedly with a smile.

"The law professor's words are indeed watertight."

"Alright, I won't guess anymore. Anyway, it's not my turn to put out the fire."

"Although I really want to come to Jingzhou, I am not qualified enough in terms of seniority and background."

"To be fair, I think you have a very good chance, because you are not only very qualified, but also capable of quickly reorganizing the team and calming the situation."

Gao Yuliang chuckled sarcastically.

"Dakang Shuji, please don't flatter me to death. I know my own limitations very well."

"I still have a lot of things to do in Luzhou, and I need to get back to deal with them. Let's talk another day! Goodbye!"

Gao Yuliang extended his right hand, displaying great gentlemanly manners.

Li Dakang reluctantly raised his right hand.

As the two shook hands, Li Dakang couldn't help but whisper:

"Actually, I really miss Luzhou, and I miss the beautiful Crescent Lake."

"If you are promoted to Jingzhou, I am willing to return to Lüzhou and develop and build it well!"

At this point, Li Dakang gently patted Gao Yuliang's hand.

His words were not an implication, but a direct statement.

In Lincheng, we are vigorously developing ecological agriculture, mining machinery, and engineering equipment...

No matter how fast it develops, it can't compare to Luzhou.

To make faster progress, transferring back to Lüzhou is clearly the best option.

Moreover, Gao Yuliang and Zhao Ruilong have already finalized the development plan for Lüzhou.

The opening of high-speed rail, the opening of airports, and the successful development of domestically produced large aircraft have driven the vigorous development of the aviation manufacturing industry.

When he arrived in Lüzhou, he could do almost nothing but wait for the economy to grow wildly, and then two years later replace the promoted Gao Yuliang as the top official in Jingzhou.

As for Gao Yuliang...

He had known all along how power-hungry Li Dakang was.

Back when they worked together in Lüzhou, Li Dakang, in order to achieve results as quickly as possible, arbitrarily changed the city plan he had drafted.

Seeing that it was difficult and slow to make progress in Lincheng, he naturally wanted to transfer himself and return to Luzhou, where the economy was developing faster.

With such a strong desire for progress, where is the common people in their hearts?

It is said that an official should bring benefits to the people in his jurisdiction.

From serving as Zhao Lichun's secretary to being transferred to Jinshan County as county magistrate.

He then rose through the ranks to become the mayor of Lüzhou, before being transferred to Lincheng as a secretary.

Li Dakang's career was marked by a tough style and a desire for quick success.

His view of political achievements is severely distorted.

Whether the common people can benefit from it is not important.

Everything he does is solely for the purpose of achieving good results and getting promoted.

Just like back then, he used the slogan "To get rich, build roads first" to raise funds frantically in Jinshan County to build roads, causing the people to suffer unspeakably and even causing deaths.

His transfer to Lincheng City was not due to being neglected.

The transition from mayor to secretary is itself a chasm that many people find difficult to cross.

Sending him to Lincheng was also intended to help him, given his expertise in economic development, lead the city out of its predicament of depleted coal resources.

Zhao Ruilong gave him quite a few ideas for this.

Let him divert water to create a lake to manage the coal mine subsidence area; with water, ecological agriculture can be developed.

Nursery cultivation, poultry breeding, pesticide and agricultural machinery research and development...

People eat for food.

If ecological agriculture is done well, there is still great potential.

It can also generate substantial tax revenue and employment, contributing significantly to GDP.

Moreover, Lincheng was founded on coal, and a complete industrial chain was formed around coal mining, primary processing, and thermal power generation.

Even though Lincheng's coal resources are almost exhausted and there is no coal left to mine.

However, there are still many coal mines both domestically and internationally that require a large amount of machinery and equipment.

There are still many places in the world that rely on thermal power generation, but the requirements for energy efficiency are getting higher and higher.

It is not impossible for Lincheng to build a first-class equipment manufacturing cluster based on its own industrial foundation, focusing on mining machinery, engineering equipment, and thermal power equipment.

Zhao Ruilong provided Li Dakang with both policy support and investment, while Zhao Lichun, the secretary, gave Lincheng considerable preferential treatment in terms of policy support and project subsidies.

Li Dakang lived up to expectations, leading Lincheng out of its predicament and making it better and better.

But unfortunately...

Li Dakang was not satisfied.

He clearly felt that achieving political success in Lincheng was too slow.

Only by returning to Lüzhou City, where development is more rapid and dynamic, can we make faster progress.

As for whether Lincheng's unfinished development plans will be interrupted after he leaves, and whether the lives of local people will deteriorate as a result...

Li Dakang clearly didn't care or pay attention to any of this.

What else can Gao Yuliang say about this?

His most famous quote is, "Don't say anything that is detrimental to unity."

Although he looked down on Li Dakang from the bottom of his heart, he saw through it but didn't say anything.

"Good! If the organization trusts me and transfers me to Jingzhou, I will definitely recommend you to be transferred back to Lüzhou to stabilize the excellent development situation in Lüzhou!"

"Good, good, good! You're truly my great partner. I'll be waiting for your good news!"

As he spoke, Li Dakang patted Gao Yuliang's arm with obvious delight.

"Don't get your hopes up too high. Whether Huo Shuji is in trouble, whether I will be transferred to Jingzhou, and whether my recommendation will work are all uncertain!"

Li Dakang laughed and said, "It's alright, your words are enough. In the end, we all have to obey the organization's arrangements!"

"Okay, let's keep in touch by phone if anything comes up."

Gao Yuliang released his hand, smiled, and left.

"Keep in touch, Lao Gao!"

Li Dakang waved with a hearty laugh.

Gao Yuliang did not turn around, but raised his hand slightly in response.

Chen Qingquan hurriedly opened the back seat door.

After Gao Yuliang got into the car, he gently closed the door and smiled and nodded to Li Dakang.

The Audi drove out of the compound and did not immediately return to Luzhou, but instead went to Handong University.

Sitting in the car, Gao Yuliang pressed and held down his phone to turn it on.

After hesitating for a while, I still didn't dial Zhao Ruilong's number.

Li Dakang wanted to advance, and so did Gao Yuliang.

Anyone who has ever experienced power will only want to have as much power as possible.

Even though they are both cities, prefecture-level cities and provincial capitals not only have different administrative levels, but the top leader of a provincial capital also has a better future.

Moreover, Jingzhou is a sub-provincial city, so the top leader is no longer at the level of a department director, but at the level of a vice minister.

At this level, one will not only become a member of the provincial party committee standing committee, but also a centrally-managed cadre.

With such a status, one can not only have decision-making power over matters large and small in Jingzhou City, but also participate in affairs throughout the entire province.

in other words.

If Gao Yuliang really becomes the top official in Jingzhou, Li Dakang will be successfully transferred back to Lüzhou.

One day in the future, when Gao Yuliang visits Luzhou as a member of the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee, Li Dakang will have to personally greet him.

This is the true meaning of "a higher-ranking official can crush you".

The difference between a deputy minister and a director-general is like heaven and earth.

Gao Yuliang knows it all too well.

The higher you go, the more difficult it becomes.

If I don't make the leap from director-general level to deputy ministerial level as soon as possible, then my life is basically over.

Once you overcome that hurdle, you'll still be so young, and there's always a chance to rise higher.

Becoming the provincial party secretary is very difficult, but becoming the vice governor is quite possible.

With a little more effort, becoming the provincial governor is not impossible.

and so……

Gao Yuliang desperately wanted Huo Siteng to fall from power so he could take over the position himself.

He knew that as long as he called Zhao Ruilong, he would definitely be able to find out whether Huo Siteng had been brought down.

But in the end, he gave up.

"Whether you make this call or not, it doesn't really matter."

“If Huo Siteng hadn’t gotten into trouble, I naturally wouldn’t have had any hope of taking his place.”

“If something happens to him, Zhao Ruilong and his son will definitely recommend me for the position without me having to say a word.”

"Scholar Zhao Lichun will be transferred away from Handong sooner or later, and no one is more suitable than me to be his successor."

"Only by recommending me for the position can his development plan be implemented without fail, and only then can the already large Huilong Group have something to rely on in Handong."

"Huo Siteng was only taken away today, and I'm already rushing to find out more. Does that mean I, Gao Yuliang, am just like Li Dakang, a careerist obsessed with promotion and pursuing more power?"

Gao Yuliang put away his phone.

He secretly resolved that he would not only never inquire about it, but would also work even more diligently and pragmatically.

Having connections with the Zhao family, he has a competitive advantage over others.

The most important thing is to focus on governing Luzhou well and bringing benefits to its people.
