After working for eight years, he succeeded the position of the Organizational Department Director because the previous director got into trouble.
During his years in the Organizational Department, he had always vigorously excavated and cultivated the elite of the "Academic Faction."
It was because of him that the "Academic Faction" was able to grow so rapidly.
While sitting at the head of the meeting room, Yue Zaitian also recalled several phone calls he had received last night and this morning.
Some were from his former subordinate, Yan Chen, and some from his students.
A few people called, and they didn’t talk about anything else but hinted to him: to be more vigilant in today’s discussion about the Xinjie City Head of the Political Department’s meeting and not let a person named Qiu Tu get the position.
This made him curious about this "Qiu Tu."
So he flipped through the materials for today’s meeting.
To his surprise, he discovered that Qiu Tu wasn’t even among the candidates being discussed.
Thus, on one hand, he found the fuss made by several people laughable, and on the other hand, his curiosity about Qiu Tu grew.
Therefore, he pulled up Qiu Tu’s file and resume and studied it carefully.
After reading it, his brow furrowed.
Qiu Tu’s promotion had been too fast, achieving in just two months what took others years, or even more than a decade.
Moreover, looking at his resume, Qiu Tu had no traces of any faction, nor had he received any training from the Sanctuary.
Such a person, aside from having the identity of an initiator of the "Boundless Heart Sea Development Project" to add some points, had virtually no chance of being elected as the Head of the Xinjie City Political Department.
Thus, he didn’t take the matter too seriously.
Unexpectedly, just as he was about to start the meeting, he received a call from Huang Shangzong.
Huang Shangzong’s call was brief, but... the content was the same, asking him to block Qiu Tu.
But perhaps because of Huang Shangzong’s status standing there, being both one of the top leaders of the "Academic Faction" and the soon-to-be Speaker of Dongye State.
Both publicly and privately, Yue Zaitian had to consider his opinion.
So, Yue Zaitian raised the importance of this matter a few notches.
He decided that today, no matter who was present, he could not let Qiu Tu be elected as the Director of the Political Department.
Thinking this, he picked up his thermos, took a sip of water, and then looked around at the few people present and slowly began, "Alright, let’s begin today’s meeting."
"The purpose of our meeting today mainly is to discuss the candidate selections for the high-level positions of the Investigation Bureaus in several Planning Areas."
"The first one is for the Xinjie City Investigation Bureau, the candidate for Head of the Political Department."

Saying this, Yue Zaitian nodded towards Director Yang Zaiwen from the staff department, signaling him, "Director Yang, please introduce the situation of the candidates."
Hearing Yue Zaitian’s words, Director Yang Zaiwen nodded and then said, "Regarding the selection of the Head of the Xinjie City Investigation Bureau Political Department, in principle, we respect their own internal recommendations."
"But... they have reported two individuals this time, indicating both meet their requirements."
"So, we still need to weigh in on their behalf."
After saying this, Yang Zaiwen was ready to introduce the two candidates.
However, just at that moment, suddenly, the door to the meeting room was knocked on "thump, thump, thump."
Hearing the knocking, Yue Zaitian’s eyebrows knitted together. It was rare for anyone to disturb a meeting of the Organizational Department—leaving a bad impression could affect one’s promotion.
So, whoever dared to interrupt must be an important person or have an urgent matter.
