The thirteen Standing Committee members of the Provincial Party Committee of Northwest Province were seated one after another.The Standing Committee is held in a small meeting room of 23 square meters.There is an oval-shaped desk in the middle of the meeting room, which is hollow and has flowers and plants placed inside.The temperature of the air conditioner is [-] degrees, neither hot nor cold, which can keep people awake.This temperature is learned.Because Secretary Cui is used to this temperature, the air conditioners in most of Secretary Cui's promising conferences are basically set at this temperature. This is the invisible influence of the top leader.

At both ends of this oval conference table, Cui Zhiming, secretary of the provincial party committee, and Song Chunrong, governor of the province, sat facing each other.As the secretary of the Provincial Party Committee of a province, Cui Zhiming has a calm and steady momentum, with a big back, slightly gray temples, eyes looking straight up, piercing, and the corners of his mouth drooping slightly. It can be seen that this person is relatively mean.Song Chunrong, governor of the province, had a ruddy complexion, phoenix eyes shining brightly, a straight nose and a square mouth, slightly leaning on the table, as if he was about to get up to speak at any time, full of momentum.

On both sides of Secretary Cui are Organization Minister Ouyang Qing and Propaganda Minister Bi Minghua.This is Secretary Cui's right-hand man, one in charge of organizational personnel, and the other in charge of media propaganda.Ouyang Qing is Ouyang Qing's aunt, very similar to Ouyang Qing, with a melon-shaped face and big eyes. She was a beautiful girl when she was young, but she looks like a young woman in middle age. She is well maintained, but her face is serious and cold. gorgeous feeling.None of the important officials here dare to underestimate this woman.The 46-year-old female minister is very hopeful that she will be the head of the Central Organization Department, or even a higher position.In addition, Ouyang Qing's husband, Xiahou Liming, was formerly the executive vice governor of Northwest Province and was transferred to Hebei Province as the governor two months ago. He is only 48 years old and has a bright future.Propaganda Minister Bi Minghua is 55 years old, with a square face, a little fat on the cheeks, a little old, thick eyebrows, small eyes, and a pair of black-rimmed glasses. He looks very dark.

On the left hand side of Song Chunrong is Zhao Ziming, the executive vice-governor. In this sentence, Zhao Jinlin's father lives up to his name. He never speaks nonsense, and what he says is true. He is thin and shrewd.On Song Chunrong's right is Hao Guoqiang, Secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection. He has thick brows and big eyes, slightly dark skin, and looks upright.

Zhao Guangzu, commander and political commissar of the military region, was in the middle, as if showing an impartial attitude. He sat upright and was a respectable old soldier.Opposite him was United Front Work Minister Huang Pingfeng, with gray hair and a round face looking like a good old man, sitting there drinking tea leisurely.

On both sides of Zhao Guangzu are Ma Liancheng, Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, Secretary Hong of the Northwest Municipal Committee, and Hong Quanli's father.This Secretary Hong is also a deputy provincial cadre, and a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee. He is also the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee of the provincial capital city, and his speech is very important.Looking down at the materials on the table, this material is the list of candidates for Xiliang Municipal Party Committee Secretary and Mayor.The name of Xiliang Executive Vice Mayor Lin Tao jumped into his eyes. It was written clearly that Xiliang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government recommended Comrade Lin Tao to take over as the mayor of Xiliang City, and the Provincial Organization Department recommended him as the mayor of Xiliang City.During this period of time, his son Hong Quanli, Zhao Jinlin and Ma Zhantao have been very close to Lin Tao. They seem to be following Lin Tao's lead, and have revealed some secrets that Lin Tao does not know. If you don't vote for Brother Lin, you won't go home for half a year.

Hong Quanli felt angry and funny after hearing this.There are still people who threaten the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee like this, but my son knows it. Usually, seven of them are dissatisfied and eight are dissatisfied. Although the three are headed by Zhao Jinlin, Hong Quanli sometimes complains at home, picks on dissatisfaction, and curses.But as soon as Lin Tao was mentioned, he immediately beamed with joy, as if he admired him from the bottom of his heart.Hong Quanli used to be worried that the three sons would get into trouble if they did business together, or that the three parents would have conflicts, but after a few years, the voices of these three boys have been very impressive, and they have not spread any notoriety. This made Zhao Ziming, Ma Liancheng and Secretary Hong feel relieved. Hong Quanli is also very satisfied with the explanation of Lin Tao, a rising political star in Xiliang. Secretary Hong feels that Lin Tao is much better than Zhao Jinlin and Ma Zhantao. After all, Lin Tao is the deputy mayor, and he is similar to him. Usually, his son doesn't listen to his words, but under the influence of Lin Tao, his son will restrain the problems of those young masters. .Secretary Hong thought so while looking at the materials. Zhao Jinlin and Ma Liancheng thought the same way, and when they raised their heads by chance, the three of them looked at each other in a tacit understanding and smiled knowingly.

Ouyang Qing's eyes are sharp, like a goshawk that is about to rush down to catch its prey at any time, the expressions of the three people instantly fell into Ouyang Qing's eyes, Ouyang Qing said inwardly, these three old foxes don't know what kind of conspiracy , I don’t know who to vote for later.

Secretary Cui glanced around, still confident in his heart, Ouyang Qing, Bi Minghua was his right and left hand, Secretary General Chen Pingzhang was his ears, Disciplinary Committee Secretary Hao Guoqiang were his eyes.Huang Pingfeng, head of the United Front Work Department, and Hu Weimin, principal of the party school, are his legs. With these six people, he firmly holds seven votes.The government is only the governor and two vice governors Zhao Ziming and Tong Guohui. Zhao Guangzu is a representative of the army and does not speak easily, but on Lin Tao's issue, he is likely to vote for one vote. Even if someone agrees, it will only be three or five. It doesn't matter.

Cui Zhiming coughed and said, "Comrades are all here. Today we are mainly discussing the selection of Xiliang Municipal Party Committee Secretary and Mayor. The succession of the old and new should not be delayed, so as not to cause unnecessary turmoil and affect Xiliang's good development momentum. The big picture. Let’s first research the candidates for the municipal party secretary, and finally vote with a show of hands.”

Ouyang Qing took the materials and said, "There are two candidates for the Xiliang Municipal Party Committee Secretary. One is Comrade Wan Quanyou, Mayor of Heyuan City, and the other is Comrade Zhang Yuhe, Secretary of the Xichuan Municipal Party Committee. Let me introduce their resumes—"

Ouyang Qing read the biography and work experience of the two according to the materials.Other members of the Standing Committee can also see it in the materials in their hands. This is a procedural issue.

"Okay, let's have a discussion! Speak freely, we are selecting the secretary of the municipal party committee for Xiliang, everyone has to check carefully, and explain the advantages and disadvantages of the two according to your own understanding." After Ouyang Qing finished reading, Secretary Cui opened his mouth and said, Turn your gaze to the crowd.

"Let me tell you first, I know Comrade Wan Quanyou well. He is thoughtful, capable, and able to take care of the overall situation. In Heyuan, he not only leads the government team to promote the development of Heyuan, but also unites comrades. He has a good reputation. I think Wan Quanyou is very suitable for the position of secretary of the Xiliang Municipal Party Committee." Executive Vice Governor Zhao Ziming said, his words were basically what Governor Song Chunrong meant, and Governor Song nodded accordingly.

Hu Weimin, principal of the party school, said: "Comrade Zhang Yuhe, secretary of the Xichuan Municipal Party Committee, I have some understanding. He has served as mayor and secretary of the municipal Party committee in Xichuan, and he is a good hand in both party and government. The development direction of Xiliang."

Cui Zhiming, secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, nodded, and said in his heart that Hu Weimin still has high quality. Although it is only a few words, he has a far-sighted vision and hits the point.

Deputy Governor Tong Guohui, as the No.12 member of the municipal party committee, said: "Principal Hu is right. Comrade Zhang Yuhe is very suitable as the secretary of the municipal party committee, but Xichuan is also facing a new stage of development. I think it is more appropriate for him to preside over the overall situation in Xichuan. It is more conducive to the stability and development of Xichuan.”

Hu Weiming opened his mouth slightly, lowered his head, and was very angry in his heart. He said in his heart, this Tong Guohui is just talking against me!According to what you said, it would not be better to return everything to the original position, because it is so troublesome to adjust.Song Chunrong was amused in his heart, you, the principal of Hu University, can teach well, and you have to act as the vanguard for Secretary Cui, but Tong Guohui pouted you.

Secretary-General Chen Pingzhang said: "The exchange of appointments between cadres is conducive to training cadres and preventing corruption. Comrade Zhang Yuhe has successively served as mayor and secretary of the municipal party committee in Xichuan for more than eight years, and this Comrades have the ability to develop and defend the city at the same time, I think it is very suitable to be transferred to Xiliang to serve as the secretary of the municipal party committee."

Secretary Cui took a sip of tea and secretly praised Chen Pingzhang's words were very level, and no one could find any faults.The scene was quiet for a while, no one spoke anymore, and found that there was some silence, Secretary Cui felt very proud in his heart, and said to everyone: "Who wants to talk, it's good to speak freely like this, only in this way can the most suitable comrades be selected. "

Ouyang Qing coughed and said, "From the perspective of the organization department of the Municipal Party Committee, I still prefer Comrade Zhang Yuhe to be the Secretary of the Xiliang Municipal Party Committee. Wan Quanyou can go to Xichuan to be the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. The mayor of Heyuan can be replaced by Comrade Liu Fengchun, the executive deputy mayor."

Secretary Cui was a little surprised. He hadn't informed himself about this proposal beforehand, but the proposal looked good.Secretary Cui looked at Governor Song, and Governor Song smiled and said, "As expected of Minister Ouyang, this problem can be easily solved by you. I agree with Minister Ouyang's recommendation principle."

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

Everyone had no disagreement, so there was no need to vote with a show of hands. The appointment was passed in one go without anyone arguing.Zhang Yuhe got his wish and was transferred to Xiliang as the secretary of the municipal party committee, and the candidate proposed by the governor also became the secretary of the municipal party committee. The two sides shook hands and made peace, and everyone was happy.

Everyone knows that the main event is coming. Although the secretary of the municipal party committee is the top leader, for Xiliang, the standing committee members are more optimistic about the position of mayor.

The first candidate is Ma Guofan, Mayor of Pingji City Government; the second candidate is Liu Zhigang, deputy secretary of the Dongchuan Party Committee and head of the development zone; the third candidate is Lin Tao, executive deputy mayor of Xiliang City Government.

Secretary Cui still used the same set of words. After Ouyang Qing introduced his resume, he asked everyone to discuss. Ma Guofan and Liu Zhigang are both around 50 years old, and they have 20 years more work experience than Lin Tao. It is pitiful, there is a date of birth, the graduate school is still a medical university, and the military experience is unknown. There is only one introduction, a division-level officer.But just these few words have the weight of a mountain.It seems ridiculous that the journey of the first two people from section chief to section chief, and then to department-level cadres is a bit ridiculous. It took the two of them 30 years to reach department-level cadres, but from the perspective of Lin Tao’s graduation time, only four In fact, Lin Tao had already served as the deputy captain of the Yinhai Criminal Police Brigade and the captain and instructor of the special brigade when he was a freshman.However, these resumes are classified as confidential.

Ma Guofan, Liu Zhigang, and Secretary Cui's words fell, and the names of these two people were mentioned by the standing committee members one after another. They also said that Ma Guofan was suitable, and that Liu Zhigang was suitable, but in terms of overall advantages, Ma Guofan obviously had the upper hand. long.This time, Ouyang Qing, the head of the organization, did not speak. Instead, he kept his head down to read the documents, drinking tea occasionally, and listening quietly.Although Bi Minghua was glanced at twice by the secretary of the municipal party committee, he didn't say anything, and the current score is three to three.Secretary Cui could see that Governor Song cared about Ma Guofan very much, while Liu Zhigang was relatively weak.Although the secretary of the municipal party committee let Zhang Yuhe take up the post according to his own intention, the post of mayor is very important. If Ma Guofan is sent, although he is relatively strong and may suppress Lin Tao, it will also bring Zhang Yuhe's work. Going to trouble is really a double-edged sword. If Ma Guofan joins forces with Lin Tao again, then Zhang Yuhe will also suffer, and the goal of suppressing Lin Tao will not be achieved.

Secretary Cui put down his teacup and said, "These two comrades each have their own advantages, and the difference is not too big. I think it's better to vote with a show of hands."

A few people glanced at each other, no one raised it, and seemed to have forgotten a candidate.

Ouyang Qing said: "If you agree with Comrade Ma Guofan to be the mayor of Xiliang City, please raise your hand."

The governor, the two deputy governors, the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, and the secretary of Northwest City Hong, five people raised their hands.

"Ma Guofan has five votes. If you agree with Comrade Liu Zhigang to be the mayor of Xiliang City, please raise your hand!"

As soon as the words fell, Huang Pingfeng, the head of the United Front Work Department, Chen Pingzhang, the secretary-general, Hao Guoqiang, the secretary of the Disciplinary Committee, and Hu Weimin, the principal of the party school, all raised their hands. .Bi Minghua was stared at by Secretary Cui and finally raised his hand.

"Liu Zhigang six votes—"

"Very good, there is also a candidate for the position of mayor. This time the Standing Committee is very successful. Everyone applauds—"

But everyone didn't intend to applaud, but looked at Secretary Cui in bewilderment.

Secretary Cui said excitedly, making a gesture to applaud.Zhao Guangzu, who hadn't spoken for a long time, opened his eyes that had been squinting, and suddenly said to Ouyang Qing: "Minister Ouyang, it sounds like there are three candidates. Could it be that I'm wrong?"

The scene was very quiet for a while, and you could hear a needle drop. Secretary Cui blushed, obviously very embarrassed. This was an unsustainable mistake. Although he didn't take Lin Tao seriously, he was one of the candidates after all. , this is so substandard.

Ouyang Qing looked at Zhao Guangzu's unkind eyes and said calmly, "There are three candidates. Let's vote for Comrade Lin Tao as the mayor of Xiliang government by show of hands."

"I agree with Comrade Lin Tao as the mayor of the Xiliang government! Although Lin Tao is a soldier, I have heard a little about Xiliang. In just four or five months, Xiliang has undergone earth-shaking changes. Not only has two international The big consortium has also improved the traffic in the poorest areas, allowing ordinary people who have walked for thousands of years to walk on the asphalt road in the rainy day and the sunny day. I think this is not a small political achievement. I am a soldier. I don’t know how to deal with economic development, everyone must be aware of it.”

Everyone nodded, Governor Song Chunrong said: "Comrade Lin Tao's work is indeed very good. He wiped out the gangsters that had been entrenched in Xiliang for many years. Now Xiliang's public security environment is unprecedentedly good, and then solved the Xiliang that was on the verge of bankruptcy. The electronics factory has properly resettled the laid-off workers. There has been no petition incident in such a large enterprise. It can be said that the handling is perfect. This electronics factory has been a big burden for the Xiliang government for more than ten years. It has solved this problem. He breathed a sigh of relief. When attracting investment, Comrade Lin Tao invited the Tello Group to settle in the Northwest, and the Korean Kim family business also settled in the Northwest. This is rare in a prefecture-level city. Under his leadership, West The Liang team has introduced more than ten companies, and in the past two months, more than 20 large companies have successively settled in Xiliang. The Xiliang Grand Transportation Project was also initiated by Comrade Lin Tao. Although it is inseparable from the support of the province, it has indeed been achieved. The good publicity has aroused the enthusiasm of the people in the backward areas. What I want to say is that Comrade Lin Tao is not only a good hand in the economy, but also a compound talent, which is rare. I agree with Comrade Lin Tao to be the mayor of Xiliang."

Facing Governor Song's detailed account of Lin Tao's work achievements, Secretary Cui couldn't find anything to refute for a while.He just pretended to be calm and said: "Comrade Lin Tao is indeed a very good cadre, capable and innovative. But he is still very young. Looking at his resume, he seems to be only 29 years old in a month. He will hone his position and accumulate some experience. After all, it is too early for him to manage the economic work of a prefecture-level city."

Zhao Ziming said: "Comrade Lin Tao's ability is obvious to all. Furthermore, I have seen materials that both teams of the Xiliang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have recommended Comrade Lin Tao as the deputy mayor. It can be seen that Xiliang's attitude is very firm, and they fully believe that Comrade Lin Tao is qualified for the post of mayor. Should we respect the opinions of Xiliang? Furthermore, in the face of this situation, our provincial capital sends other mayors. Will the Xiliang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government think that the Provincial Party Committee does not respect Their opinion, if there is emotion, it will be difficult for the new mayor to open up a job in the united Xiliang government, and doing so will be very detrimental to Xiliang's economic development!"

Secretary Cui was speechless, the recommendation from the Xiliang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government was like a thorn in his throat, and he couldn't say any reason.Members of the two teams, this has become an ironclad country. If Lin Tao becomes the mayor, it will not be a big deal.

Zhao Guangzu rubbed his eyes and said, "My eyes are a little blurred. I put on my glasses to look at them. I really didn't see the recommendation from the Xiliang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government just now. This has won the hearts of the people—oh, and there is also the Provincial Party Committee Organization." It seems that Minister Ouyang agrees with Comrade Lin Tao as the mayor of Xiliang."

Zhao Guangzu's self-mockery, saying that his eyes were blurry, was very harsh to Secretary Cui's ears, as if he was talking about him, and the fact that Lin Tao was not elected just now made Secretary Cui's heart beat faster, his face turned black, and he had to lower his head and take a sip of tea , trying to calm down, but choked on a mouthful of water, and coughed violently while leaning on the table.

Minister Ouyang on one side hurriedly helped Secretary Cui to tap on the back.Bi Minghua dodged to the side, because the tea sprayed all over his pants.Secretary Cui waved his hand and took out a handkerchief to wipe his mouth.Sit up straight again.Looking around, he seemed to see Governor Song Chunrong, Executive Deputy Governor and Zhao Guangzu were all watching his jokes, laughing at him.

Secretary Cui took a deep breath and said, "Let's vote with a show of hands!"

Zhao Guangzu raised his hand again, followed by Zhao Ziming, then Governor Song Chunrong, Deputy Governor Tong Guohui, Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee Ma Liancheng, Secretary of the Northwest Municipal Committee and Standing Committee Member of the Provincial Committee Hong Lipeng.When he saw Bi Minghua raising his hand beside him, Secretary Cui's heart skipped a beat, as if someone had hit him hard on the back, and then Ouyang Qing also raised her hand. She didn't express her opinion the first two times. When Lin Tao was selected, she actually raised her hand, and Secretary Cui felt another kick in the stomach.This is eight votes, two votes more than Liu Zhigang, and three votes for Ma Guofan. What is going on?Secretary Cui's eyes were really blurred, which was completely unexpected. After Ouyang Qing raised his hand, Hao Guoqiang, Secretary of the Disciplinary Committee, and Chen Pingzhang, Secretary General of the Municipal Party Committee, immediately raised their hands as if they had received an order.

"Ten votes. Impossible!"

The head of the United Front Work Department and the principal of the party school raised their hands one after another, wondering if they were infected.

"Twelve votes!" Secretary Cui felt a pain in his heart, as if he had been stabbed in by a steel gun. This election was completely out of his control, and he was about to become a real laughing stock.

"Secretary Cui!" Ouyang Qing shouted in a low voice.

"Ah!" Secretary Cui noticed that twelve of the thirteen members of the Standing Committee raised their hands and seemed to surround him. He felt it was difficult to breathe.

"Very good, I—I also agree——Comrade Lin Tao as the mayor of Xiliang! Everyone applauds and welcomes!" Secretary Cui said this with difficulty, and everyone began to applaud warmly.Lin Tao unexpectedly passed the vote of the Standing Committee of the Northwest Provincial Party Committee with all thirteen votes. This has to be said to be a rare honor.

"Minister Ouyang issued a notice in time to let all parties complete the handover work. The meeting was adjourned." Secretary Cui was the first to walk out of the venue, striding forward, much faster than before. As he spoke, he walked outside without haste.Secretary Cui went upstairs, pushed away his office, and gasped for breath while leaning on his desk.Secretary Zeng Liangwei quickly took out the quick-acting heart-rescuing pill and handed it to Secretary Cui. Secretary Cui swallowed the medicine and gulped down a large glass of water.

"Secretary, how are you feeling? Do you need to go to the hospital for an examination!" Zeng Liangwei asked with concern.

Secretary Cui waved his hand feebly and leaned against the sofa behind him.Zeng Liangwei glanced worriedly, and then retreated.I thought to myself, why is Secretary Cui like this after the end of the Standing Committee?Is it impossible to escape Secretary Cui's control?In just 5 minutes, the news that Lin Tao was elected as the mayor of Xiliang City flew in all directions as if he had grown wings. Many people were shocked, the 29-year-old mayor!It is really unacceptable!While many people were amazed, they were filled with jealousy, especially those cadres who had worked in the position of deputy mayor for several years. The average age was over 40 years old. After hearing this news, many people began to feel distressed. pill.
