Chapter 535: Chapter 535: They are All Acquaintances

After Chu Shuyuan and Ji Yang had their conversation over the phone, Ji Yang gained some understanding of the situation in Jinyin City.

As Ji Yang had said, he was now just the Executive Vice Mayor, and there was no need for him to worry too much about things since he had a tall figure to stand behind.

The next day, Ji Yang arrived at the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee.

As soon as he got there, Ji Yang ran into someone he knew, the class monitor from the Party School, Huang Song, had also just arrived.

Both were surprised to see each other.

"Ji Yang, you’ve been transferred back?"

"Yes, I was notified today to come to the Organization Department for a collective discussion."

"You’re here for the collective discussion too?" Huang Song’s gaze flickered, uncertain of what he was thinking.

"That’s right, I was initially in South Dian, then suddenly got the notice to transfer back, which was a bit unexpected."

"I recognized the voices, and didn’t expect it to be the two of you," another voice came along, and they saw a familiar person coming from downstairs.

When Ji Yang looked, it turned out to be Zhou Dacheng, the branch secretary from their Party School class.

Having seen two acquaintances all at once, Ji Yang’s heart stirred, feeling that these two might end up working in Jinyin City just like himself.

"Haha, what’s going on today, a class reunion?" another voice chimed in.

When everyone looked, it was Cao Jiakun, one of the three group leaders from the Party School.

"Leaders, please follow me," a beautiful cadre from the Organization Department beckoned everyone to enter further.

Although everyone wanted to talk, in such a context, each one remained very quiet, no further words exchanged, merely communicating with glances, intending to catch up properly later.

Upon entering the small conference room, there were already several men and women sitting inside.

All eyes turned to Ji Yang and his group.

Shortly after everyone had taken their seats, a few middle-aged men exuding a commanding presence strode in.

Ji Yang saw Zhou Yuan among them, walking behind a thin middle-aged man.

Seeing this, Ji Yang knew that the man leading must be the newly appointed Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Yan Guozhen, whom Zhou Yuan had mentioned the day before, coming from another province to take up this position.

After several people took their seats, one of them said, "My name is Hu Chen, the head of the Organization Department. Let me introduce the leaders who have come today to talk with you. First is Comrade Yan Guozhen, the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee."

All eyes focused on Yan Guozhen, who nodded slightly in response.

The introductions continued with Zhou Yuan, the Governor, and then Gao Huashan, the Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee.

After introducing everyone, Hu Chen continued, "After the Provincial Party Committee’s research, it is decided that you will go to Jinyin City to take charge of the city’s work. I will now announce the appointment decisions..."

As he made the announcement, Ji Yang finally understood the situation. Zhou Dacheng would assume the position of Secretary, Huang Song as Mayor, Cao Jiakun as Deputy Secretary, and Ji Yang as Executive Vice Mayor.

When the appointments were announced, all eyes fell on Ji Yang, deliberately or not, especially those from the Party School. They were actually quite surprised. In the Party School, although Ji Yang had also entered the Municipal Committee team, at that time, Ji Yang was just a County Party Secretary, and they hadn’t really taken him seriously. To their surprise, Ji Yang had suddenly risen to their level—the position of an Executive Vice Mayor was certainly one of the front-ranking positions in the city’s leadership.

Soon, everyone’s attention shifted to the other officials.

Ji Yang listened carefully as well, understanding that these people were going to work with him for a while, and it was indeed necessary to learn about everyone’s situation.

Hu Chen continued to announce:

The Secretary of the Disciplinary Committee, Lu Mingping, the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee, Deng Guohai, the Head of the Organization Department, Su Jincheng, the Head of the Propaganda Department, Huang Yan, and the Vice Mayor, Fang Shijun.
