Mayor Zheng and Mayor Jiang refused to budge, while Minister Zhou said nothing, simply watching with a smile.
Wu Qiangwei also remained silent, waiting for Secretary Lu to resolve the situation.

If he couldn't resolve it, then the previously discussed terms would naturally be voided.
Secretary Lu had clearly come prepared and chuckled, "Let's set aside the choice of County Party Secretary for now, and we can decide by direct vote at the committee meeting later."
Mayor Zheng's face darkened. If they were to decide by voting at the committee meeting, what was there left to discuss?
"It's better to determine the candidate first. It's better not to have too many controversies at the committee meeting."
