"Authoritative explanation? What more authoritative explanation do you need? Aren't the many patients in the hospital an explanation? Aren't the bodies in the morgue an explanation?"
These words.
Chen Fang almost roared them out.
Then.
He shouted towards the door: "Ren Qing'an, co in."
The door opened.
Ren Qing'an walked in.
Since Jiang Feng couldn't get out of the hospital, Chen Fang called Ren Qing'an, who had just recovered, to temporarily serve as his secretary for a while.
After Ren Qing'an entered.
He handed a file folder to Chen Fang.
Chen Fang directly pushed it to Peng Qiuli's hand and said, "Aren't you asking for authoritative explanation? This is proof provided by the Dongchuan Province Virus Research Institute. This proof is sufficient to show that the virus discovered now is a new virus, exactly as Comrade Wei Jinhai described."
After saying this.
Chen Fang turned to everyone.
And said, "The virus laboratory concluded through experints that this virus is a mutant strain of a virus hidden in bats. Originally, this virus was not transmissible to humans, but for so unknown reason, it mutated, so the laboratory temporarily nad this virus as the Bat Virus."
Now the evidence is conclusive.
Peng Qiuli was also speechless.
The other Standing Committee mbers also lowered their heads one by one, seemingly unable to find any counterargunt to Chen Fang's words.
"Let's vote. Since opinions differ, let's follow the Standing Committee procedure."
Wang Guoxiang saw that Peng Qiuli was also at a loss.
He actively suggested.
After saying that.
He was the first to raise his hand, saying, "I'll be the first to state my position: I do not support the city lockdown asure."
"I also do not support it."
Peng Qiuli imdiately followed suit by raising his hand.
Next, it was Deputy Mayor Lei Changsheng's turn.
He pondered for a while.
Then said, "Although Secretary Chen's approach is sowhat extre, I also believe that nothing is more important than the safety of the public's lives and property, so I agree with the city lockdown asure."
His statent.
Received Chen Fang's approval.
According to the ranking.
It was Disciplinary Committee Secretary Wang Xiajun's turn.
His attitude is obvious without even saying; he certainly disagrees, otherwise, he wouldn't have sent his subordinates to attempt to arrest Wei Jinhai before the eting.
Next, the Organization Departnt Minister Wu Yan, the Propaganda Departnt Minister Xing Rulan, and the Political and Legal Committee Secretary Guo Pingjian all expressed their opposing opinions.
In the blink of an eye.
The opposing votes had already reached six.
In other words.
If one more person expressed opposition.
Chen Fang's proposal would not pass.
Everyone's eyes fell on the United Front Minister Chen Hong.
Everyone present knew.
Chen Hong had a good personal relationship with Wang Guoxiang.
They had a lot of private interactions.
So Wang Guoxiang believed he would certainly be on his side.
As a result.
After a brief consideration, Chen Hong said, "Since the spread of this Bat Virus is so rapid, and the mortality rate is so high, I personally feel we need to take tough asures, so I support Secretary Chen's lockdown policy."
This answer.
Made Wang Guoxiang widen his eyes in disbelief.
He never expected Chen Hong to express such a position.
Helplessly.
Chen Hong had already stated his position.
Everyone then looked at the Secretary of the Municipal Committee Lian Jie.
Lian Jie had accompanied Chen Fang all the way, and upon seeing everything, he naturally supported the lockdown policy in his heart.
But just as he was about to speak.
Guo Pingjian suddenly cleared his throat and gave him a look.
At that mont.
His intention suddenly changed.
For no other reason than the lovely maid at ho.
He already had a weakness that Guo Pingjian had grasped.
No choice.
He could only clear his throat.
And said, "I also disagree with the lockdown."
Although three people hadn't yet spoken.
The result was already certain.
Wang Guoxiang was very excited.
He directly stood up and said, "Secretary Chen, you see now, the majority do not support adopting the lockdown policy. Your proposal is void. If there's nothing else, can we adjourn now?"
After dropping these words.
Wang Guoxiang was about to turn and leave.
At this mont.
Chen Fang suddenly shouted, "Wait a mont!"
Wang Guoxiang turned around disdainfully, "What's wrong? The matter is settled, gathering here is a waste of ti, what's the point?"
"I'm afraid Mayor Wang forgot, I'm the head, I have a veto power, don't I?"
As soon as he said this.
Everyone was shocked.
Why?
The head indeed has a veto power, a power given by the organization.
But this power is rarely truly used by a head.
This power is like an atomic bomb, only serving a deterrent effect; once used, it implies your inability to control the situation.
In other words, using the veto power is, in a sense, a display of incompetence by the head.
"You want to use the veto power?"
Wang Guoxiang asked in surprise.
Chen Fang nodded and said, "Extraordinary tis call for extraordinary asures. This lockdown asure will be implented whether you like it or not. Effective imdiately, we will establish a Bat Virus Pandemic Response Committee, with as the Director, and Comrades Wang Guoxiang, Lei Changsheng, and Wei Jinhai as Deputy Directors. All personnel, resources, and powers will be under the unified deploynt of the committee."
Chen Fang's words were exceptionally strong.
Completely with a tone that allowed no room for discussion.
After hearing this.
Wang Guoxiang gritted his teeth in anger.
He shook with rage and shouted, "I disagree, and I do not accept your appointnt."
"Fine, I said it before, all powers are allocated by the committee. From now on, you can be your mayor, but all the municipal governnt's powers and resources are to be coordinated by Comrade Lei Changsheng. That's the decision, and if anyone dares to oppose it further, no matter how high your position or strong your backing, I will ensure you can't bear the consequences. If you don't believe it, you can try."
Chen Fang's words were incredibly arrogant.
No head had ever dared to say such words.
But Chen Fang said them.
The eting room fell silent.
Chen Fang's aura, along with the pressure of his City Secretary's authority.
Made them find it hard to breathe.
"Comrade Chen Fang, how imposing you are. People who don't know might think you're the head of the entire Dongchuan Province. What? Are you planning a rebellion?"
Just then.
A dignified voice ca from outside the door.
This voice made Wang Guoxiang excited once again.
Footsteps were heard.
Followed by.
Provincial Committee Secretary Fu Zhiquan appeared.
Behind him were two others.
One was Deputy Provincial Governor Qu Guanghua, and the other was Provincial Committee Secretary Yan Jiang.
