Because Dongping City is a county-level city, it is under the administration of the Jingzhou Municipal Government.
The Party Secretary of a county-level city is only at the level of a full-fledged department head.
Lin Yunfei remained calm and said casually, "Okay, no problem."
Li Dakang, if Chen Yanshi comes after me, I'll just pull out the municipal party committee document you signed.
As the Party Secretary of Guangming District, I received an official document from the Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee. Following the instructions of Li Dakang, the Party Secretary of Jingzhou, the Dafeng Factory was legally demolished.
Even if we're going to make a scene, let's take it all the way to the Hantong Provincial Party Committee. Let's take it all the way to the Central Inspection Team; I'll still be in the right then and there.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Yunfei stepped into the elevator and pressed the button for the first floor.
The elevator doors slowly closed, shutting out the noise from the outside world. He stood inside, his gaze deep, his mind calculating his next move.
He knew the storm was far from over. Cai Chenggong's disappearance, Li Dakang's death order, and the resettlement of the workers at Dafeng Factory were all thorny problems.
The elevator doors opened again, and Lin Yunfei stepped out, walking firmly toward the main entrance.
. . . . .
On the way back, Lin Yunfei sat in the back seat of the Land Rover and dialed Governor Liu's private number.
After the call connected, Governor Liu's voice sounded gentle and steady: "Yunfei, what's the matter that's urgent that you're calling me at this time?"
Lin Yunfei spoke respectfully, but could not hide his anxiety: "Governor Liu, the matter of Dafeng Factory is probably more complicated than we expected."
Upon hearing this, Governor Liu paused slightly and said, "Oh? Tell me about it."
Lin Yunfei reported to Governor Liu in detail about Cai Chenggong's disappearance, Li Dakang's tough stance, and his concerns about a possible conspiracy behind it all.
After listening, Governor Liu remained silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Yunfei, the complexity and cruelty of political struggles far exceed your imagination."
"But you must remember that no matter how difficult the situation is, you must not violate your principles and bottom line."
Lin Yunfei nodded firmly, his words filled with determination: "Governor Liu, I understand. I will do my best to mediate, both to stabilize the Shanshui Group and to ensure that the interests of the Dafeng Factory workers are not harmed."
Governor Liu nodded with satisfaction: "Good, Yunfei. I believe you can handle this matter well. Remember, if you encounter any difficulties, report to me immediately."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Yunfei felt a little relieved. He knew that he was not fighting alone in this political storm.
With Governor Liu, a ministerial-level official, as his backing, he was even more confident in facing Chen Yanshi and Sha Ruijin.
The Land Rover continued speeding through the night, Lin Yunfei's gaze passing through the car window, looking into the distance.
. . . . .
The provincial government office building in Handong Province.
32nd floor, Governor's office.
Liu Cheng hung up the phone and pondered for a moment. He then stood up, picked up the red secure landline, and dialed a number.
"Old Chief. It's me, Liu Cheng."
Zhao Mengsheng's voice was steady and powerful: "Liu Cheng, how are you? Are you feeling alright?"
"Your official appointment will be finalized in another month. You've received your reward."
Liu Cheng smiled happily: "I'm in good health."
"That's right, old commander. Yunfei just called me. He reported to Li Dakang that he's ordered to forcibly demolish Dafeng Factory..."
"In the 1980s, Dafeng Factory was a pilot project that Chen Yanshi took charge of."
"At that time, state-owned enterprise reform was underway."
"Chen Yanshi has put in a lot of effort for Dafeng Factory," Liu Cheng said slowly, his tone tinged with emotion.
"Moreover, I also found out that Chen Yanshi has many old comrades-in-arms who are all in Beijing."
“It’s possible he knows some, like generals in the military region,” Liu Cheng said solemnly.
"Moreover, according to a classmate of mine at D school, Chen Yanshi seems to have raised Sha Ruijin for a period of time."
"Of course, this is just my guess." Governor Liu said with a solemn expression.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Mengsheng remained silent for a moment before saying in a low voice, "Lord Liu, Yunfei is a capable young man. But political struggles are far more complex than he imagines."
Zhao Mengsheng's implication was that he was telling Governor Liu that if Dafeng Factory was involved with Chen Yanshi, then Chen Yanshi would be involved with Sha Ruijin.
Liu Cheng nodded in agreement: "Old Chief, I understand. Yunfei is still young and lacks experience. But I believe he will gradually grow and mature."
Zhao Mengsheng sighed and instructed, "The matter of Dafeng Factory cannot be delayed. Find some time to communicate with Sha Ruijin and see his attitude."
Liu Cheng nodded: "Okay, I will. Chief, do you have any other instructions?"
Zhao Mengsheng thought for a moment, then spoke up: "Liu Cheng, you must remember this. No matter how difficult the situation is, you must not violate your principles and bottom line. Yunfei too, you must constantly remind him."
Liu Cheng nodded solemnly with a serious expression: "Old Chief, I understand. I will always remind Yunfei."
After hanging up the phone, Liu Cheng fell into deep thought again. He knew that the Dafeng Factory issue was no longer just a matter of demolishing a garment factory.
The political struggles behind it were far more complex than he had imagined.
Liu Cheng stood up and walked to the glass window. Gazing at the bustling city outside, his gaze was deep and resolute.
He knew that as the governor of Handong Province, he had to shoulder this responsibility and stand firm in his post until the very end.
"Hey, Secretary Zhang. Could you help me organize all the documents for Dafeng Factory in Guangming District, Jingzhou City?"
"Give it to me immediately." Governor Liu picked up the black landline and dialed his personal secretary.
Fifteen minutes later, Secretary Zhang returned to the office carrying a stack of documents.
Liu Cheng picked up the documents on the table and began to carefully study the relevant information about Dafeng Factory.
He understood that only by fully understanding the situation could he make the right decision.

46. Sha Ruijin's ambiguous answer, remaining detached.
46. Sha Ruijin's ambiguous answer, remaining detached.
Liu Cheng put down the documents about Dafeng Factory on the table and remained silent for a long time.
This large wind factory clearly has a dispute over its shareholding.
Judge Chen Qingquan of the Intermediate People's Court made a judgment with obvious flaws.
In short, Cai Chenggong borrowed 50 million yuan at high interest rates from Shanshui Group through a bridge loan to fund the production of Dafeng Factory, with an agreement to repay the loan within six days, using all of Dafeng Factory's shares as collateral.
Cai Chenggong took out a loan from Jingzhou City Bank within the stipulated time for working capital.
Ouyang Jing, the vice president of Jingzhou City Bank, suddenly stopped lending.
This led to the Shanshui Group filing a lawsuit in the Jingzhou City Court, demanding that Cai Chenggong repay the money.
Chen Qingquan, Vice President of the Intermediate People's Court, ruled in favor of Shanshui Group, awarding Shanshui Group 100% ownership of Dafeng Factory and land valued at "one billion yuan" based on the mortgage agreement.
Here's the crux of the matter: the shares of Dafeng Factory are held by its employees.
Employees hold as much as 40% of the shares.
The workers were unhappy because they lost their shares.
Recently, Lin Yunfei, representing the Guangming District and Jingzhou Municipal Governments, announced to the public that the land use designation for Dafeng Factory has been changed again.
The land was originally designated for commercial use, but has been changed back to industrial use.
As a result, the land where Dafeng Factory is located is now worth 60 million.
Governor Liu sighed and took off his reading glasses: "No matter how you look at it, it seems like the Shanshui Group has set this up."
Secretary Zhang stood in the corner and slowly walked up: "Governor Liu, this is the latest information we have received from the Provincial Government Office."
"Gao Xiaoqin, the general manager of Shanshui Group, made it clear to the Jingzhou Municipal Government that they had decided to give up on Dafeng Factory."
"Furthermore, 60% of the shares of Dafeng Factory will be sold to the outside world."
Liu Cheng snapped out of his daze, a look of confusion on his face: "You don't want it anymore? Shanshui Group, why did your attitude change so quickly?"
There might be something fishy going on here.
"Xiao Zhang, you can go out now."
"I need to make a phone call to the new Secretary Sha." Liu Cheng slowly stood up, picked up the red secure landline on his desk, and looked at his full-time secretary, Xiao Zhang.
Secretary Zhang: "Yes, Governor Liu. Please call me if you need anything."
. . . . .
After the call was connected, Sha Ruijin's calm and magnetic voice came through the receiver: "Governor Liu, hello."
Liu Cheng nodded slightly, maintaining his politeness even though the other person couldn't see him: "Secretary Sha, have you heard about the Dafeng Factory incident?"
Sha Ruijin's voice remained calm, steady, and powerful: "I'm currently in Yantai City conducting environmental research. Secretary Bai just reported to me, and I took the opportunity to look into it. It is indeed a thorny issue."
Liu Cheng sighed, his expression serious: "Secretary Sha, the interests involved behind this are too complicated. The sudden announcement by Shanshui Group to abandon Dafeng Factory and then the sale of its shares to others suggests there are inside stories we don't know about."
Sha Ruijin pondered for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Governor Liu, what do you mean?"
Liu Cheng stated bluntly: "I think we should conduct a thorough investigation. Dafeng Factory is an employee-owned enterprise, and it concerns the livelihoods of more than 1,300 workers. We cannot sit idly by."
Sha Ruijin agreed, but gave an ambiguous reply: "Governor Liu, your consideration is very thorough. Well then, I've just arrived in Handong and don't know much about this place."
"I'll leave the matter of Dafeng Factory to you to decide."
Sha Ruijin remained uninvolved; what was the purpose of his sudden arrival in Handong?
Investigate Zhao Lichun to find evidence of his illegal and criminal activities. Also, locate key witnesses and obtain crucial evidence to bring Zhao Lichun down.
He needs anti-corruption efforts and the disciplinary committee.
I need a knife, a sharp knife.
However, Chen Hai has now been suspended from his duties at the Anti-Corruption Bureau of the Handong Provincial Procuratorate.
Sha Ruijin hung up the phone, his mind filled with a multitude of thoughts. He couldn't help but think of Chen Yanshi and Wang Fuzhen, the couple.
Hai Zi was, after all, Chen Yanshi's son.
Chen Yanshi had raised him with kindness, although that kindness only lasted for a few years.
Sha Ruijin knew the dangers of political struggle, and after careful consideration, he was still unwilling to involve Chen Hai.
