Chapter 629: Chapter 585: Typhoon Strikes (Added for Alliance Leader A1398796)_1
Nie Zhenbang’s statent made his intentions quite clear, hinting at a sense of satisfaction on both sides.
Wang Jianhua was quite pleased. Within the system, so intentions, once basically achieved, do not need to be explicitly stated. This was sothing that could only be understood, not shared verbally.
Just then, there ca a hurried knock on the door outside. Followed by the voice of the municipal governnt secretary, An Guoyu, sounding out, “Mr. Ju Peng, is the mayor inside? I have an ergency situation that I need to report imdiately.”
An Guoyu’s behavior left Nie Zhenbang stunned. Ever since Secretary An had earned his trust and approval, he always had been quite composed. Suddenly, what made him so restless?
Before anyone could respond, An Guoyu had already entered. Seeing Nie Zhenbang and Wang Jianhua sitting on the sofa, he nodded slightly and said, “Mayor Wang is here too. Saves a trip.”
An Guoyu then seriously said: “Mayor, we just got a ssage from the provincial teorological bureau. The central teorological station issued the first typhoon red warning of the year ten minutes ago. Typhoon Pigeon transford from a tropical storm to a typhoon this morning, and it is gradually escalating to a strong typhoon. It is estimated to land in our province in six hours, and our Wanghai City may be the core area of its landing.”
This statent caused Wang Jianhua’s face to turn serious. Mayor Nie hadn’t been here long, and although there have been the occasional tropical storms passing by during this ti, they hadn’t caused much impact, so his understanding in this regard may be sowhat lacking. Wang Jianhua was absolutely clear.
A strong typhoon is classified as winds reaching above level 13. If WangHai City is the landing area for the strong Typhoon Pigeon, WangHai City would suffer massive economic losses, and even the safety of the people’s lives and property would be threatened.
“Mayor, we must be vigilant. A strong typhoon could easily flip cars on the roads. And we didn’t get enough ti to prepare in advance. We must act now,” Wang Jianhua also began to explain.
As soon as the words fell, Nie Zhenbang’s cell phone rang. Picking it up, he heard the slightly flustered voice of the city party committee secretary Yi Chang, “Mayor, we just got the news that the strong Typhoon Pigeon is about to land in our city. Please rush to the city committee eting room. The provincial party committee and the provincial governnt are convening a video conference to deploy flood control and prevention work across the province.”
Upon hearing these words, Nie Zhenbang nodded and looked over at Wang Jianhua, then said, “Old Yi, Mayor Wang is with right now. Stop calling, we’re heading over there right now.”
Most of the leadership of the municipal party committee was already seated in the city committee multidia conference room. At this ti, it was not a question of who ca first, but about who was closer and arrived more quickly.
The city party secretary Tian Xujian was also seated in the central main position at the front. The curtains of the eting room had been drawn closed. On the wall, a large electronic display showed so preparations inside the provincial committee eting room. Nearby, several staff were installing and adjusting the equipnt to ensure that during the video conference, there would be no interruptions in the picture or problems with the sound.
Half an hour later, the image on the large screen changed, switching to nine screens. There were four small images each on the top and bottom of the large screen, corresponding to the other eight cities in Minan Province. The main screen in the middle showed the situation in the provincial committee multidia conference room.
In the eight venues, the municipal party committee leadership of each city had already taken their seats in the eting room. At this ti, in this situation, there wasn’t a cadre who would take the opportunity to casually greet others.
A minute later, in the provincial committee eting room, the provincial party secretary and governor Qiao Yiren walked in with a serious expression. Behind Qiao Yiren was the deputy party secretary Yi Mingyang and the executive deputy governor Lin Hourong.
After settling down, Qiao Yiren began saying, “Let’s keep it brief. No need for pleasantries. Let’s get straight to the point. We just received another ssage from the central teorological station. Pigeon has upgraded to a super typhoon about 50 nautical miles north of Treasure Island. The maximum wind strength is above Level 16. The waves on the sea are as high as 27 ters. The coastal areas of our province will be the main landing areas of this typhoon, and among them, WangHai City is the key point of the super typhoon Pigeon’s landing.”
As soon as Qiao Yiren’s voice fell, exclamations could be heard from the speakers in the eting room. A super typhoon. This change to a super typhoon was surprisingly fast, which was indeed startling.
Qiao Yiren spoke again: “This ti, Wanghai City will be the focus of typhoon disaster prevention efforts. Comrades Tian Xujian and Nie Zhenbang, please take your duties seriously. Do a good job in defense. Ensure the safety of the people’s lives and property.”
On his side, Tian Xujian also spoke after Qiao Yiren’s words: “Please rest assured, Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Governnt, and Secretary Qiao. We in Wanghai City, will definitely prepare rigorously, diligently arrange and prepare city-wide defenses. We will ensure the support work in all aspects such as power and telecommunications after the typhoon makes landfall, and effectively protect the lives and property of the city’s residents.”
Afterwards, Qiao Yiren made detailed work arrangents for coastal cities in Minan Province such as Minzhou City, Quanhai City, and Puzhou City.
Qiao Yiren’s tone changed, and he said solemnly: “Alright, comrades, now, we don’t have much ti left, all cities, party and governnt officials, stationed military and ard police officers. Public security, water conservancy, flood control and other departnts must take action. A small summary every half an hour, report once every hour. Go all out to do a good job in defending against the typhoon.”
Qiao Yiren also brought out his utmost energy, this ti, it is not only a test for the entire province, but also a test for him. As the newly appointed secretary of the provincial party committee and concurrently serving as the governor, managing both party and governnt affairs, even in an interim capacity, such a situation is rare nationwide for Qiao Yiren. It also fully reflects his leadership abilities at a critical mont. He couldn’t help but take it seriously.
…
On the side of Wanghai City, after all kinds of equipnt and instrunts were turned off, Tian Xujian turned around at this mont. He looked around at the people and said: “Alright, everyone is already clear about the instructions of Secretary Qiao of the provincial party committee. Ti is pressing, so let’s not change the eting room. Let’s have a quick eting here.”
Tian Xujian’s expression was very serious, this was Qiao Yiren’s test, and also his opportunity. Facing a major disaster is a key mont in testing a leader’s ability to govern and lead. At the sa ti, it is also the best opportunity for a leader to establish authority. He didn’t expect to have this opportunity so soon.
Unfortunately, compared with the apology event, the ti interval was too short. Although this ti will increase a lot of authority, it is still sowhat insufficient. However, Tian Xujian didn’t care about this at this mont. When the opportunity cos, he must seize it.
Looking around at the crowd, Tian Xujian said solemnly: “According to the information from the Provincial Party Committee, this ti, the Pigeon has evolved into a super typhoon. When it makes landfall from the seas north of Treasure Island, it is estimated that it will weaken into a strong typhoon, but the situation is still very severe. Starting from now, all construction projects in all districts and cities shall cease imdiately. All primary and secondary schools, universities, and colleges, suspend all classes.”
After a pause, Tian Xujian continued: “In addition, all police officers in the Wanghai Military Region, Ard Police Force, Public Prosecution Law system, are all on standby, ready to protect their designated areas. Also, all leaders of the Municipal Party Committee along the city’s coastline are assigned responsibility for a specified area, and must ensure that there are always leaders from the Municipal Party Committee at the disaster relief frontline. Departnts such as telecommunications, electricity, and sanitary must be prepared to respond to the rescue and ergency work at any ti. We must ensure that no one is injured in the typhoon, and no house gets destroyed.”
Upon saying this, Tian Xujian calmly looked at Nie Zhenbang and said flatly: “Mayor Nie, do you have anything to add?”
These words made the other mbers of the municipal party committee feel a little upset, saying that all aspects of work arrangent and deploynt had been completed by Secretary Tian, and still asking if Mayor Nie had anything to add, wasn’t this superfluous, purely wanting to see a joke?
Nie Zhenbang also sneered in his heart, he was very clear about Tian Xujian’s plan, he was just waiting to see his joke, asking for opinions, if you said there wasn’t anything to add, doesn’t that an you’re not capable?
On the surface, Nie Zhenbang responded with a smile: “Secretary Tian has thought about it very comprehensively, and very thoughtfully, I won’t make any other deploynt. Emphasizing one point, people’s interests are above everything, as party mbers and officials, we should have the spirit of not fearing sacrifice. Do everything possible to do a good job on disaster relief. In addition, considering that the typhoon ca urgently this ti, and that many fishern might not be able to evacuate in ti at sea, I suggest imdiately asking the Naval Wanghai Naval Port for help, and requesting the Navy to send a fleet out to sea for search and rescue, in order to ensure the safety of the fishern.”
As soon as Nie Zhenbang’s words were finished, on the side, Tian Xujian’s face twitched slightly. How could he have forgotten the fishern, a key group to focus on when combating the typhoon in Wanghai City? Originally, he had wanted to see Nie Zhenbang make a fool of himself, but unexpectedly he ended up helping Nie Zhenbang.
Imdiately, Tian Xujian stood up and said solemnly: “Alright. From now until the typhoon makes landfall, there isn’t much ti left. Everyone, start taking action now.” (
