Chen Yang lit up a cigarette, smiling without saying a word.
Secretary Gao laughed heartily, "Young man, reaching this step is already quite commendable. Who hasn't made mistakes? I have, Minister Chen has, Governor Hou has too."
"Don't be afraid of young people making mistakes, only those who dare to lead can stand at the forefront of the tide!"
"I think Secretary Song is very good: bold yet meticulous, and crucially, highly capable."
"Look across the whole country, in so many corruption cases, money transferred abroad, do we have a precedent where it was retrieved within two days?"
"I don't think so."
"Not to mention, an amount as large as 7 billion."
Secretary Gao flicked his cigarette ash, his words clearly implying something that anyone but a fool could understand.
He was supporting Song Guanchao, trying to erase his mistake of spreading the news without notifying the province first.
He didn't want others to hold on to this issue and make a big deal out of it.
