Ge Changhong had been slumped on the sofa, smoking sullenly, when he heard Xu Qianli's words and sprang to his feet.
"What did you say, Xu, you have a way to easily break the deadlock?"
"You're not kidding, are you?"
"As you've seen, the situation in Jiang City's government scene has been tense ever since you took down Zhang Kuisan and Lan Qianrong took control of the County Government. As I'm stepping down next year, most people in Jiang City's officialdom have deferred to Lan Qianrong's authority, not daring to defy her."
"At this critical juncture, how do you plan to break the deadlock?"
Ge Changhong looked at Xu Qianli full of expectation, waiting for his answer.
It was said that being the County Party Secretary in Jiang City was a tough job, something Ge Changhong agreed with wholeheartedly.
His three predecessors as County Party Secretary were all disciplined by the City Disciplinary Inspection Committee.
