Chapter 467: Chapter 435 This is a Big Trouble Now_1
 

Hearing Shen Xiuchao’s words, Nie Zhenbang was thrilled. He already had the documents at hand, all from previous work. Soon he humbly nodded, “Comrade Shen, I’ve got the written materials ready. I can bring them over soon.”

Shen Xiuchao, being a man of action, also nodded, “Kept at your Jingcheng home right? Just make a phone call and have that little guy Jiamin get it for you.”

Nie Jiamin felt a wave of emotions upon receiving the call. His younger brother was proving to be more surprising than he’d anticipated, now even establishing relations with the Crown Prince.

He quickly scanned Nie Zhenbang’s written materials. Compared to his oral presentation, they were more detailed and thorough. His insights into the “Three Rural” issues were profound, and many of his ideas and plans were very appealing. Shen Xiuchao closed the materials, looked at Nie Zhenbang and said, “Zhenbang, your stance is well thought out and insightful. As a member of the Communist Party, we need forward-thinking cadres like you.”

This surprised Mu Dingjian. As Shen’s right-hand man, he knew Vice Chair Shen was not one to easily praise subordinates. This praise for Nie Zhenbang showed he held him in high regard.

At that moment, Shen Xiuchao changed the subject and said with a smile, “I heard the Eastern Development Forum is due to start in less than two months. That’s great. I plan to attend. National emphasis is on the East’s development strategy. Provinces with advanced economies in the East can innovate and bring about regional development, which is worth emulating and should be supported by the state. I will take a look at the opening ceremony.”

Shen Xiuchao then instructed to his secretary outside, “The Eastern Development Forum’s opening ceremony in Liangxi City, take note, we’ll attend in October.”

His first secretary was not just for note-taking. At Shen Xiuchao’s level, there was more than just domestic politics. There were also numerous foreign affairs activities to participate in. Writing them down was partly for reference and mainly for work coordination and scheduling of international activities at that time.

Nie Zhenbang was delighted and stood up, “Comrade Shen, your presence is the greatest affirmation to Jiangbei Province and the five provinces of the East. We will be well-prepared to receive you.”

After all, Shen Xiuchao was already a regular Politburo member, and sparing a few hours to meet with Nie Zhenbang was already a significant focus on the Three Rural issues. At this moment, Huang Yunshan came in and whispered, “Comrade Shen, it’s time to depart. Several comrades are waiting to bid you farewell at Yun Guangge. The special plane for the Asia-Pacific summit is ready.”

With this, both Nie Zhenbang and Mu Dingjian tactfully rose to their feet, bid their farewells, and left. Driving out of Huayun Pavilion in Mu Dingjian’s official vehicle, he gave Nie Zhenbang some instructions, treating him as one of his confidants.

In the end, Mu Dingjian told Nie Zhenbang that if he ever needed help, he could come to him. This was Ding Jian’s recognition and promise to Nie Zhenbang.

After parting ways with Ding Jian, Nie Zhenbang met with several others in Jingcheng. Gao Wei was already planning his transfer. The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection was ready to release him and was waiting for a transfer order from Wanghai city.

After spending two nights in Jingcheng, Nie Zhenbang took a flight back to Jiangzhou. As the plane gently landed at Jiangzhou Airport, Nie Zhenbang was full of mixed feelings.

A month ago, Prime Minister Yun summoned him to Donggang, at which time his future was uncertain. Should he fail, his political career would end. Now, not only had it not ended, but he also gained the appreciation of the Crown Prince and the trust of Secretary Mu. With their support, his path was set to be a smooth one.

Stepping out of the airport, Nie Zhenbang felt refreshed. The impact of Elder Nie’s death had reached its weakest point. Current Secretary Yuan, followed by Shen Xiuchao and then Mu Dingjian, all national leaders were supporting him. Others who wanted to suppress him had to consider whether they could withstand the anger of these big shots.

Soon, Nie Zhenbang found Huang Xuyang and Yang Qingshan in the crowd. He had already informed them of his flight schedule by phone.

Upon seeing him, both men came over. Huang Xuyang took Nie Zhenbang’s briefcase and handed him a cup of tea, while Yang Qingshan took his suitcase.

Looking at the two, Nie Zhenbang smiled and asked Huang Xuyang, “Xuyang, how has the situation in the city been during the month I’ve been away?”

“There’s not much change. Vice Mayor Li has been very popular this month. Accordingly, Vice Mayors Shi and Li have become closer. Everything else is proceeding as planned, especially the old city renovation. However, it seems that quite a few of the Zhou family’s villas are being built with substandard materials.”
