?Chapter 1256: Chapter 1211: President Qiao’s Appreciation Chapter 1256: Chapter 1211: President Qiao’s Appreciation Observing Shen Guoquan’s demeanor and expressions, at this moment, Shen Guoquan appeared very ordinary. On the surface, he was completely praising Longxi Province’s economic construction and development. However, the more he did so, the more Nie Zhenbang felt the need to be cautious.

After a brief contemplation, Nie Zhenbang also said with a smile, “Elder Brother Guoquan, you jest. Longxi Province’s development relies heavily on the central government’s support and policies. Additionally, Longxi Province’s foundation is weak. When development starts, it boosts the entire GDP significantly, which seems like a huge leap. The growth rate also appears frightening. In reality, it’s not that exaggerated. It’s just like Yuedong Province here. Its total GDP has already surpassed two trillion. That is something Longxi cannot match. The difficulty you have increasing by one point is much harder than us increasing by three or even four points. In actuality, Yuedong is still stronger.”

Having said that, Nie Zhenbang paused and added, “The economic start-up in Longxi Province is still slow. It’s too young, with too brief a development period. Compared to an old and powerful province like Yuedong, it’s not even on the same level. Your words could be construed as a veiled criticism of me.”

Nie Zhenbang’s words also implied his thoughts. Shen Guoquan’s probing was just to see whether Nie Zhenbang was a contender to him.

This was normal, for Shen Guoquan was such a person himself. Similarly, given Nie Zhenbang’s age and spirit, it was impossible for him to consider any position less than the third. Even he aspired for the top spot, just like his own. If that were the case, the two would be direct competitors, and a fierce battle was inevitable. Isn’t that what vying for the leading position means?

Nie Zhenbang’s response was also quite skillful, comparing Longxi’s economy with Yuedong’s and contrasting the development time of both provinces. He also subtly told Shen Guoquan, I indeed would like to compete with you, but reality is there, in this term, it’s your turn, you’re the age-appropriate and most suitable candidate. If it were me, I’d be too young.

Although not entirely dispelling Shen Guoquan’s doubts, his expression eased quite a bit. With a smile, he said, “Younger Brother Zhenbang, you’re too modest. Your work capability and tactics are widely recognized among our peers.”
