Zheng Yuanhu glanced at Li Zhen secretly and found that Li Zhen's expression was cold and solemn, and his heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
Turning his eyes, he noticed the serious expression of Hu Linyi next to him, and he felt even more unsure.
Resigning in front of two important figures in the country is not something worth showing off, especially with Wang Xiaoyang present. This is embarrassing for Wang Xiaoyang. When he saw Wang Xiaoyang's unhappy expression, he felt very guilty because he resigned at this critical moment. Being an official was very unsuitable. Zheng Yuanhu felt bitter in his heart. He had been taught by Zheng Youwei since he was a child to be filial. However, since loyalty and filial piety could not be both, he could only resign and stand by his old father's side.
After thinking about it, Zheng Yuanhu became more and more calm. After completely letting go, he no longer had any fear or worry.
At this moment, Zheng Yuanhu has a peaceful mind.
Zheng Yuanhu looked calm and calm, and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Governor, I am the mayor of Guangzhou, and my father Zheng Youwei is the stinking stone that caused the relocation of the Pearl River Delta region to be incomplete. Once this matter is taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives, then , will have a huge impact on the government's image, causing the government to lose credibility in front of the people and lose the trust of the people.
After a pause, Zheng Yuanhu continued: "When such a situation occurs, anyone can guess what happened. If it were me, I might wonder if it was the mayor who put pressure on Ding Ruchang, which caused Zhengjiazhuang not to be relocated. There will be no more inside stories. As a result, a series of things will come out, and I am not suitable to continue to serve as the mayor of Guangzhou."
Wang Xiaoyang said loudly: "As long as I'm here, don't worry about this. I'll clarify it for you."
After hearing Zheng Yuanhu's words, Li Zhen nodded secretly in his heart.
What Zheng Yuanhu said was indeed considered from the perspective of the government. This approach is worthy of praise, but it is not worth following, because it will be more difficult to explain clearly after resignation.
The so-called explanation is a cover-up, which is generally true.
You resign to prove your innocence, but people will say that you are not innocent.
After Li Zhen sorted out the matter, he said: "Zheng Yuanhu, I am very pleased that you can consider the country and understand your approach, but I do not encourage or even oppose your approach because it is a coward's approach and the most negative approach. The most contemptible practice.”
"First of all, as a man, voluntarily quitting and giving up when encountering difficulties is not what an upright man should do. I feel ashamed for you."
"Secondly, according to your statement, if you continue to serve as the mayor of Guangzhou, people with ulterior motives may say that so-and-so is using power for personal gain, which has led to the relocation of the Zhengjiazhuang area not being completed. This is government corruption. But after you voluntarily resigned, , will people with ulterior motives give up smearing? If it were me, I would definitely spread rumors that Zheng Yuanhu used power for personal gain during his tenure and provided convenience to the Zheng family. You see, now Zheng Yuanhu has been kicked out because of the Zhengjiazhuang incident. I don’t know who will take over. What kind of corrupt official is he?"
Li Zhen sneered twice and said: "No matter what you do, whether you resign or not, the government will have an impact. People with ulterior motives can find reasons to smear it. It is impossible for you to prevent it. As a man, As a qualified government official, when encountering difficulties, you should face them head-on and actively think of ways to solve them. If you can't come up with an idea yourself, then you should solicit opinions from more people and brainstorm."
"You are the mayor of Guangzhou, and there are so many officials below you. Why can't you think of a way?"
"Guangzhou is the first region to open up and is a flag connecting China with other countries around the world. If you have such a character and attitude, then I think you are an unqualified official. You may have provided a lot of conveniences to the people during your tenure, but at this critical time By resigning, you are ashamed of the people and the trust of Governor Wang Xiaoyang. If a man does things with respect and respect for heaven and earth, and has a righteous heart, he will win the hearts of the people in the end and be able to go on."
Li Zhenyang's eloquent words made Zheng Yuanhu feel ashamed.
Zheng Yuanhu opened his mouth, but swallowed the words that came to his mouth. In front of Li Zhen, he could not and did not dare to say what Zheng Youwei said about the feng shui of the ancestral temple and not move it, so he was speechless.
Hu Linyi was an elder and advised: "Mayor Zheng, you should think twice before doing anything."
Wang Xiaoyang was also very angry and shouted: "Go back and do what you are doing."
Zheng Yuanhu sat still and did not get up and leave.
"Hey, you guy, you took medicine today and you have a brain problem." Wang Xiaoyang groaned angrily and spoke rudely.
Li Zhen frowned and asked, "Is there anything else?"
Zheng Yuanhu took a deep breath and continued: "I still have to resign. This is my father's request."
"idiot."
Li Zhen slapped his hand on the table, with a sharp look in his eyes, and shouted: "You are so old, why don't you have any opinion? You are still the mayor of a city. If your father asks you to resign, you will resign. Don't you think so?" Dad told you to die, will you die?" He was really speechless. If he hadn't seen Wang Xiaoyang respect Zheng Yuanhu, he would have slapped this guy out. It was simply stupid.
Zheng Yuanhu was pure and filial by nature, and his temperament was very similar to Zheng Youwei's. He was very stubborn. He raised his head and chest, and said loudly: "The kindness of raising me is greater than heaven. If my old father insists on letting me die, I should follow it."
"Hahaha……"
Li Zhen was so angry that he laughed, unable to laugh or cry.
This guy is really a very interesting person.
Wang Xiaoyang's face was burning. He felt that he had never been so embarrassed. Zheng Yuanhu had lost all his face. Wang Xiaoyang waved his sleeves and said: "You want to resign, okay, okay, okay, I approve it. Now, you Go pack your things and get out of here, don’t let me see you... Why am I so blind that I fall in love with you, a stupid waste like you."
"Governor, I disappoint you."
Zheng Yuanhu stood up in despair, bowed to Li Zhen and Hu Linyi again, then turned and left.
However, he felt relaxed in his heart.
At least you don't have to be caught in the middle.
Li Zhen looked at Zheng Yuanhu's leaving figure with a flash of surprise in his eyes. After resigning, this guy not only didn't look down and out, but his behavior was actually a bit more chic. Li Zhen became interested in Wang Xiaoyang's behavior. I am also satisfied with the vision and the mentality of those who can reach this point, their ability is not bad. As the saying goes, a thousand pieces of gold are easy to get, but a general is hard to find. If there are outstanding talents, Li Zhen will not let them bury them.
Seeing Zheng Yuanhu about to walk out the door, Li Zhen said: "Wait a minute."
Zheng Yuanhu froze for a moment, turned around, and said respectfully: "What orders does the president have?"
Li Zhen waved his hand and said, "Come back first and I'll ask you a few questions."
Zheng Yuanhu couldn't understand Li Zhen's thoughts, so he had to go back to the office. He was scolded by Li Zhen earlier. Zheng Yuanhu was in awe of Li Zhen, who was younger than him. At this moment, Zheng Yuanhu seemed to be a primary school student, respectful and respectful. Standing in the office, he no longer had the carefree attitude he had when he turned around to leave. Instead, he looked very reserved, which made people laugh.
When Li Zhen saw this, he felt funny in his heart.
This Zheng Yuanhu is indeed a very interesting person.
