Chapter 78

"Director! I think this is an opportunity. The reason Xu Chunming has a chance to become the head of our Hancheng City Bureau is because Director Xiao strongly supported him. If it is ultimately proven that Xu Chunming is the one who framed someone, won't Director Xiao be blamed for poor judgment in personnel? When we report this matter to the Municipal Committee, do you think Director Xiao will have an easy time? After all, that is Secretary Lin's woman. If I'm not mistaken, Secretary Lin must already know about this."

Chen Shengping was very clear that Xiao Changqing already hated him. Although he was the deputy director of the Hancheng City Police Bureau and held significant power, in front of Xiao Changqing, he was nothing. If it was his responsibility, he would not escape it. If it was not related to him, no one could frame him. Considering his future, he could only take drastic measures and half-seriously, half-jokingly proposed his suggestion.

Deputy Director Wang, upon hearing Chen Shengping's words, suddenly felt a bright light in front of him. As Chen Shengping said, this was a rare opportunity for him. If handled well, he might be able to replace Xiao Changqing. He immediately smiled and said to Chen Shengping, "Xiao Chen! You've changed; you've started to learn how to play political games."

Chen Shengping, upon hearing Deputy Director Wang's words, thought of his true intentions and felt his cheeks turn slightly red. He answered with a guilty conscience, "Director! In fact, politics is like a battlefield. To win a war, one must use all available resources. Using some small tactics when necessary is not a big deal."

"Xiao Chen! What you said is correct. The difference between politics and the battlefield is not significant, and sometimes politics can be even more brutal. How to effectively use the resources around you is crucial. I understand this matter now. I have a meeting to attend soon, so I won't talk much. After this matter is over, I will visit your Hancheng City Bureau. I'll have Wang Hu invite his classmates out, and we can all sit down together. I'll also personally apologize to him on behalf of our bureau."

Chen Shengping's willingness to share such important information made Deputy Director Wang extremely happy. If in the past he considered Chen Shengping just a subordinate, now he trusted him completely. He knew how important this information was for a cadre and immediately made a promise to Chen Shengping.

After ending the call with Chen Shengping, Deputy Director Wang leaned back in his office chair, a very content smile on his face. He muttered to himself, "I never expected it! I never expected this matter to be an opportunity for me, Wang Xudong."

Deputy Director Wang, having said this, picked up the phone on his desk and quickly dialed a number.

Soon, the call was connected. Wang Xudong, hearing the other party's inquiry, smiled brightly and greeted politely, "Director Zhong! Hello! I am Wang Xudong from the Municipal Police Bureau. Is Secretary Li available now? I have an important matter to report to him."

After Wang Xudong finished speaking, the phone quickly responded with Director Zhong's friendly voice, "It's Director Wang! Your Jiaoning City Bureau has really made a name for itself this time. The boss hasn't smiled all day because of this matter. You should be a bit cautious when you talk to him!"

"Director Zhong, thank you for the reminder. I'm here to help our boss solve the problem. I originally planned to come in person, but Director Xiao notified me of an emergency meeting, so I'm reporting by phone. After the meeting, I'll come in person. Could you please transfer the call to the boss's office?" Wang Xudong, upon hearing Director Zhong's words, immediately showed a grateful smile. Thinking about the effect this call could have, he felt extremely excited and immediately stated his purpose.

Director Zhong, upon hearing Wang Xudong's words, immediately thought that Wang Xudong had found a way to handle the matter. Without further pleasantries, he smiled and replied, "Director Wang! This matter has already alarmed the Provincial Committee. The boss is very troubled by it. If you can resolve it satisfactorily, the boss will certainly remember your contribution. Please wait a moment; I'll transfer your call to the boss's office."

Soon, the call was connected. Before Wang Xudong could speak, Li Xidong's extremely authoritative voice came through the phone, "Xiao Wang! I heard from Xiao Zhong that you have found a way to resolve the video scandal. Is that true?"

Wang Xudong, upon hearing Li Xidong's inquiry, immediately put on a serious face and reported to Li Xidong, "Secretary Li! What Secretary Zhong said is correct. I have not only clarified the entire situation but also found a way to resolve it."

Although the video scandal was a big issue, Li Xidong did not expect Secretary Lin of the Provincial Committee to be so concerned about it. This undoubtedly made him very anxious. Resolving the matter and calming the public's anger was the biggest challenge at the moment. Wang Xudong's ability to solve this problem naturally made him very happy. He immediately asked Wang Xudong, "Xiao Wang! What did you say? You not only clarified the truth of the incident but also found a solution. Tell me, what exactly is going on?"

Wang Xudong, shortly after Li Xidong started working in Jiaoning, quickly aligned himself with Li Xidong. In the process of interacting with Li Xidong, he knew that Li Xidong had always wanted to transfer Xiao Changqing from the police bureau but had not succeeded due to opposition from some members of the Standing Committee. The incident involving Xu Chunming was undoubtedly a good opportunity, and whether he could replace Xiao Changqing depended on this opportunity.

At this moment, Wang Xudong did not hesitate and immediately reported to Li Xidong, "Secretary Li! The situation is as follows: The young man and woman in the video who had a conflict with Xu Guozheng are classmates of Wang Hu, the deputy captain of the Hancheng City Criminal Investigation Team. When the conflict occurred, Wang Hu was also present. His original intention was to help his former leader by recording the video."

"After the incident, Deputy Director Xu Chunming of the Hancheng City Police Bureau did not learn from his son's lawless behavior. Instead, because they were Wang Hu's classmates, he instructed his subordinates to frame Wu Botian, accusing him of practicing medicine without a license, which ultimately led to the video scandal."

Li Xidong, upon hearing Wang Xudong's report, finally understood the entire situation. However, he was very puzzled and asked Wang Xudong, "Xiao Wang! You did a great job, being able to clarify the truth so quickly. However, this is just the truth. To calm the public's anger, simply revealing the truth is not enough."
