Although he had previously tried to lie flat, reality forced him to do many things.
But now it was different, he could finally lie flat as much as he wanted!
He just needed to attend a few meetings every day and behave in a proper way.
With a new leader in place, too many people were trying to make a good impression, so no one paid attention to Sun Lian Cheng.
There was only so much work for the district government, and Sun Lian Cheng had long grown accustomed to it over the years, he could handle it even with his eyes closed.
So there was nothing much to say about work, Sun Lian Cheng just had to clock in and out on time every day.
But in life, trouble always comes unexpectedly!
"Second Brother, it seems someone is jealous of our family!"
"Big Brother, what do you mean?"
Sun Lian Guo looked a little annoyed, thought for a moment, and then said, "I'm planning to invest in the electric vehicle industry recently, I want to set up a factory here in Han Dong, but do you know that both Yun Zhou and Jing Zhou are actually cold to me!"
Sun Lian Cheng frowned and quickly asked, "What's going on? Tell me about it!"
"Sigh, I don't know what's going on either..."
Sun Lian Guo was indeed a bit confused, logically, wouldn't it be good news that he was increasing his investment?
Why did the local investment promotion department have a different attitude?
Sun Lian Guo was confident in his investment in the electric vehicle industry because he had more complete technical data and had conducted sufficient market research.
But he never expected that there would be trouble with his investment.
He was planning to invest 200 million, and then loan a few more hundred million, for a total investment of no less than 500 million, with the possibility of going even higher.
But Yun Zhou, for some unknown reason, didn't offer any preferential policies, and even on the matter of loans, they kept pushing him around, making Sun Lian Guo furious.
Jing Zhou was also strangely acting this way.
Feiyang Group was also a major taxpayer in Jing Zhou, but they didn't get the preferential policies they deserved, and some people even accused them of polluting the environment with the electric vehicle industry...
Please, apart from Guangming District, which truly had a good environment, how many other districts and counties could achieve and maintain it?
So wasn't this blatantly suppressing them?
After Zhou Shan He left, Sun Lian Guo also discussed this with Sun Lian Cheng, and they already anticipated the possibility of being suppressed.
But they never imagined that they would have so many tricks up their sleeves, and the intensity was so high!
So even though they had anticipated this, Sun Lian Guo was still indignant and very angry!
Sun Lian Cheng accompanied him to sip tea slowly, not immediately comforting him, but letting him cool down first.
After Sun Lian Guo had said a lot and vented his frustration, Sun Lian Cheng continued the conversation.
"Big Brother, maybe you should invest elsewhere?"
"Ah? Invest elsewhere?" Sun Lian Guo suddenly became a bit confused.
Sun Lian Cheng nodded and said, "I think you can go to the city where Zhou Shan He Secretary is, their conditions are also good, and they're not bad in all aspects, their wage level is even lower than Jing Zhou!"
Sun Lian Guo furrowed his brow, "But I've always been in Han Dong, suddenly going to invest elsewhere, wouldn't that be a bit inappropriate?"
"There's nothing inappropriate! It's just that I can't really leave, otherwise who would want to be suppressed and live a life of frustration?"
Sun Lian Guo glanced at him, nodded, and said, "You make a valid point, but Zhou Secretary's side..."
"I'll talk to him in advance, he'll probably be very happy about it!"
Sun Lian Guo thought about it for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "If there's a better environment, then of course it's best!"
Sun Lian Cheng sighed and said, "Then you prepare over here first, I'll talk to the old leader later, and then you can go there to communicate."
"Second Brother, if I go over there, will there be any problems with the industry here in Han Dong?"
"It shouldn't be a problem, if it really doesn't work, we'll just move everything together, it's not a big deal. Since they don't want it, then let's just turn the table. What year is it, they still think it's twenty years ago?"
Sun Lian Guo finally felt relieved and firmly said, "Okay, then we'll fight them."
Actually, they were overthinking!
This was just the actions of some individuals, not even instructions from Liu Han Ting and Zhao Li Chun.
Although they were old foxes with many schemes, who would dislike having too much investment and a booming economy in their own area in this day and age?
Especially Zhao Li Chun, while he had some issues regarding personal interests, he would never allow his son Zhao Rui Long to disrupt the overall situation.
Zhao Rui Long could take advantage of people and exploit situations, but his methods had to be subtle, and he couldn't cause any obvious impact, let alone affect the career of his father who was about to become the top leader.
Otherwise, even if he got these companies, could he still maintain his position as the top leader?
Unfortunately, they received the news too late, by the time they knew, Sun Lian Guo had already reached an investment agreement with Zhou Shan He, and the funds and technology had already been transferred.
It would be difficult to get him to come back then.
They wouldn't dare to really suppress Feiyang Group's related industries in Han Dong, after all, it involved nearly 20,000 jobs, and if you counted the upstream and downstream as well as various other related jobs, it would be about 50,000 to 60,000 people.
As seasoned old foxes, they wouldn't act so impulsively.
They couldn't really suppress Sun Lian Guo and Feiyang Group, but it was still no problem to control a district chief.
Therefore, at the Standing Committee meeting, almost no one mentioned Sun Lian Cheng's promotion or job transfer.
Sun Lian Cheng just like that began his ten-year career of lying flat, stable and unchanging!
Moreover, he was already forty years old at this time, his ambition wasn't as strong as it was twenty years ago, he treated these things with indifference.
In 2005, Sun Lian Cheng was sent on an inspection and study trip.
When he returned, the landscape of Guangming District had already changed!
The former district party secretary Ji Chun Lai was transferred to be the mayor of a certain city, and deputy district chief Yan Tong Shu was also transferred to another city to be the deputy mayor.
A new district party secretary named Mei Lian Zhi arrived, and a new deputy district chief named Ye Xiao Ming was also appointed.
There were also many changes in other departments in the district, Sun Lian Cheng felt like he didn't recognize many people at the meetings.
But since he wanted to lie flat, he simply ignored these personnel matters.
However, when the work assignments were made, the subtle hostility emerged.
Mei Lian Zhi arranged for Ye Xiao Ming, the deputy district chief, to assist Sun Lian Cheng in handling economic development, construction, commerce, and other important areas, while he himself focused on personnel, the district public security bureau, finance, land resources, etc.
In fact, Sun Lian Cheng was only left with civil affairs, appeals, education, agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, fisheries, and family planning and health departments.
These areas were more tedious, more complex to handle, and it was difficult to achieve results.
Just from this work assignment, it was clear that they were targeting him.
