Provincial Party Committee

Chapter 37

Only a very small number of stunned youths misjudged the situation and were dissatisfied with their career development, thinking that they had worked hard and deserved to go up to a higher level, and those who were promoted to personal deputy director or vice chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference were worthy of themselves.Dissatisfied with the main leaders of the provincial party committee, do not cooperate, resist softly and stubbornly, say strange words, use temper, and become thorns in the eyes of the leaders. If they are not cut off, it will simply cause chaos in the world.So the leader will act vigorously and resolutely, with a single order, they will be relieved of all their posts, and if they are light, they will be dismissed from their posts. , half dead, fell from heaven to hell.

Those young officials at the main hall level with a bright future all stared wide-eyed, and kept looking at Wang Yiming who had just arrived.They were both envious and jealous of him.I envy Wang Yiming's good luck, his qualifications are so impeccable at such a young age.Jealous of Wang Yiming, who is about the same age as himself, but has already shown his ambitions and spread his wings to high places. There are senior people to take care of and give advice. Someone in the court is good at being an official, and he will soon become the top leader of Xijiang Province.If this continues, maybe one day he will enter the central government and become the leader of the country.

So what they are eagerly looking forward to is to build a relationship with Wang Yiming, so that Wang Yiming can have a good impression of themselves.When Wang Yiming is in charge of Xijiang in the future, his official can be promoted to a higher level.If you can't get promoted, at least keep your current position, or change from a less important position to a more important position.

And those vice-provincial officials in office have even more varied thoughts.He was very happy, like Hu Fangda, Vice Governor Hu who was sitting under the stage.He and Wang Yiming are old acquaintances. Before Wang Yiming came to Xijiang, he was with him most of the time.When he was in Beijing for meetings, he also called on Wang Yiming many times.During the holidays, greetings are indispensable.If you want to say who has the closest relationship with Wang Yiming in the entire Xijiang Province, Hu Fangda believes that it must be him.Wang Yiming is now the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee. After a few years, he will be able to become the secretary, and at the worst, he can become the governor of the province. Then he, the deputy governor of agriculture, will still have a chance to rise to the next level. , maybe you can even become a member of the Standing Committee, become an executive vice governor or something.

He Wang Yiming came to Xijiang Province alone, his eyes were darkened, and he was not familiar with anything.As for myself, I have been in Xijiang Province for decades. This is my hometown. I was born and raised here. Although I have been outside for more than 20 years when I was a soldier, I know the situation in Xijiang Province very well.If Wang Yiming wants to do well, he needs a caring person to give advice, and most importantly, he needs someone from the provincial government to help him and take the helm.At that time, if he is the secretary of the provincial party committee, if he and the governor can't urinate in the same pot, then I, the deputy governor, once I become the executive deputy governor, my position will be very important, and I can make trouble here and do something cause.Maybe when you retire, you can go to the CPPCC to find a regular job and be promoted to a regular provincial cadre, which is not impossible.

So when he heard the news that Wang Yiming was coming to Xijiang to serve, Deputy Governor Hu kept laughing in his heart. He was happy, and he felt that his spring was coming soon.In the officialdom, who can have the time to be content!A senior official can crush people to death!
Zhou Guangsheng, deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, had the most complicated thoughts. He felt that his fate was bad and the organization department was unfair because he had no one above him.Based on ability and qualifications, I had the opportunity to be the governor three years ago, but I didn't compete with Liu Fangming.In the past few months, because of the promotion of his son-in-law, he and Liu Fangming almost tore apart and confronted each other.He refused to mention my son-in-law, so I tripped his secretary.In this way, they are evenly matched, and no one suffers.

With Yang Chunfeng, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, the relationship between the two of them has always been tepid, neither good nor bad, just an ordinary relationship with colleagues. It is necessary to pretend to be an insufficient grandson like Gao Tianmin all day long.He, Zhou Guangsheng, is also a person who has a backbone and wants to save face. He has messed up to this point, will he still act according to anyone's face?Therefore, for Yang Chunfeng and Liu Fangming, only he dared to obey the public and contradict the public, or face to face, and put forward different opinions in public meetings.He has the qualifications.He is the third member of the Standing Committee and Deputy Secretary. Apart from the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and the Governor, in this Xijiang Province, he is the veritable third.

For Wang Yiming, his emotions are complicated. As soon as Wang Yiming's status rises, his own status will appear to decline accordingly. In the officialdom, one person's success will inevitably bring others' frustration. There are only so many seats, and the key seats are: There is only one time, and it is impossible to get them all.But looking around, Zhou Guangsheng had to admit that he was isolated.Among the dozen or so Standing Committee members, I don't have a single bosom friend.Although Gao Tianmin and himself are both local factions, he belongs to Yang Chunfeng.Both Li Yao and Lao Tan were cadres exchanged from other places, and they had no relationship with him.Although Qin Dalong, the head of the organization, said that he had been in charge of it for several years, he also came from another place and had no personal relationship with him.Propaganda Minister Li Zhibin used to be the secretary of the Linhai Municipal Party Committee. Fundamentally speaking, he was single-handedly promoted by his predecessor Xie Qingsong, and he had nothing to do with him.If he and Wang Yiming fall out again, if he still stays in Xijiang Province, then the next seven or eight years will be really depressing.Even when you go to the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, you still have to deal with these colleagues, and your face and heart are at odds. Living is really fucking tiring.

So for Wang Yiming, he had to use his reason to overcome his emotions and abandon all personal grievances. Besides, even if Wang Yiming did not come, another official would come.On the contrary, he has to do everything possible to get close to Wang Yiming and reach a united front with him. He believes that Wang Yiming also needs him.At the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, the two deputy secretaries sang together, which is a force that no one can underestimate. Even the provincial Party committee secretary and the governor have nothing to do.

It was Wang Yiming's turn to speak. He bowed to everyone first, raised his head, glanced at the people in the audience, and then said: "Old leaders and comrades, first of all, thank you very much for rushing to the meeting in the midst of your busy schedule. To attend this meeting, I am also very grateful to Mei Zhihong, the Minister of the Ministry, who traveled thousands of miles and personally sent me to Xijiang Province to take up the post. Today is a day that I will never forget. From today on, my destiny will be the same as that of Xijiang Province The fate of more than 6000 million people is closely linked. I am closely linked with all the leaders and comrades present here. From now on, we will be comrades in the trenches. This is my great honor and thanks The trust and arrangement of the organization gave me this rare opportunity in my life to serve the people of Xijiang Province and work with you. Here, I want to say that I thank you, the organization, and fate. At the same time, I also I feel terrified and apprehensive. I am afraid that my ability is limited. I can’t do a good job in this important leadership position. I am sorry for the expectations of my superiors, I am sorry for the training of my organization for many years, and I have failed my comrades’ trust in me. So , These days, I have been thinking about some issues. Here I would like to discuss with my comrades, what are the advantages of our Xijiang, and how can we find breakthroughs, take the lead in realizing the rise of the central and western regions, and realize the goal of building a well-off society in an all-round way.

"There is no doubt that compared with other brother provinces and cities, our Xijiang's natural conditions are not bad. We are rich in resources and are well-known resource-rich provinces. We are famous for water conservancy, electricity, minerals, and especially rare metals. Enriched areas. We also have a large labor force output province every year, sending millions of laborers to the developed eastern coastal areas. We also have policy advantages. The central government is preparing to issue a series of policies to support the development of the central and western regions. Measures to carry out the development of the western region. The information I learned is that in the future, the preferential policies in the eastern part can also be enjoyed in the western part. Even the preferential policies that are not in the eastern part will be available in the western part. In terms of policy support, we cooperate with Compared with the developed regions in the Northeast, we have no disadvantages, and we will even have advantages soon. Because we have minerals and electricity, it is easy to form industries and quickly transform them into wealth. In my opinion, if we compare with the developed regions in the east, we have advantages. If there is any obvious gap, I see the level of our leading cadres at all levels, and the ability to control the market economy, in terms of openness, pioneering spirit, flexible use of various policies of the central government, and development of our own advantageous industries according to local conditions. In serving the people wholeheartedly, while satisfying the superior leaders with our work, we must also satisfy the grassroots. There is still a lot to be done in terms of uniting people, boosting morale, uniting and leading 6000 million people to achieve common prosperity. The gap. This is my own point of view, frankly speaking, and discuss with you.

"I think it is not terrible to have gaps and difficulties. What is scary is that there is no sense of crisis, no gaps, no problems. Day by day, I am satisfied with being a monk hitting the clock and dawdling. Such a great opportunity, I just missed it. The gap with others is getting bigger and bigger. In the end, I don’t even have the courage to catch up. I give up on myself and give up on myself. This is the most terrible thing.

"We are pleased to see that in the past few years, Xijiang Province has made great progress in all aspects of work under the leadership of the provincial party committee headed by Comrade Chunfeng. Good summary, I will not repeat it here, in a word, the achievements are great, the future is bright, and the future has a long way to go.

"What will happen to Xijiang Province in the future depends on the leading cadres present here. Can we work together as one, think in one place, work in one place, don't engage in internal friction, don't tear each other down, and stick to principles when it comes to big things. Small things are about style. As the saying goes, the train runs fast, it all depends on the front belt. We senior leaders are playing the role of the front of the car. The happiness and well-being of the 6000 million people in the province depend on us. So I am one of them. A member of the group, when they received the news that they were going to work in Xijiang Province, they felt that the responsibility was heavy and the mission was arduous.

"Zhuge Liang once said in "Teacher's List": 'Since I was ordered, I have been mourning all night long.' Only by 'dedicated to death, I will die' can repay the kindness of the late emperor. He is a literati and official in feudal society, and he has such a strong sense of responsibility. , professionalism, as senior cadres trained by the party and the people for many years, we should have this awareness. We can’t even do what the ancients did, but we can’t do it today. Let me make a statement here first, I promise to work in Xijiang Province In the days when I am diligent and honest, I must be honest and honest, manage my people around me and my family members well, and do not seek personal gain. Please supervise me. To refuse unceremoniously, the disciplinary action should be dealt with according to the law, and there will be no mercy.

"The last thing I want to say is that when I work in Xijiang Province for one day, I must be diligent, conscientious, modest and prudent, neither arrogant nor impetuous, conscientiously cooperate with Comrade Chunfeng to carry out work, unite the provincial party committee, rely on the masses, Believe in the masses, dedicate your energy and life to the development and progress of Xijiang Province, and work together to create a better future for Xijiang Province!"

Wang Yiming's words were very short. He completely broke away from the manuscript, staring at everyone with his eyes like a torch, and his voice was full of emotion, which sounded very touching.There are not many stereotypes, empty words, or big words in his words. They are all vernacular words, which are frank, true, and hidden in the needle. They are very weighty and well-controlled. People's face, it seems tepid, very well handled.

But in the face of these old fritters in the officialdom, Wang Yiming has no idea what the effect will be.Because these people are well-informed people, and they have heard too many swearing statements and speeches after years of ups and downs in the officialdom. They have already developed immunity to this, and they no longer believe the speeches of any high-ranking officials easily. up.In other words, for a long time, they have been fooled too much, like encountering fraudsters one after another, no longer have the slightest psychological relaxation, they all look at every high-ranking official who just came to power with a half-believing eye , Some of them even looked at Wang Yiming with disdainful eyes, and seemed to say in their hearts, brother, take it easy, don't get complacent too early, don't talk so deadly, if you can't do it by then, it will be ugly Well, this pool of muddy water in our Xijiang Province is deep!Just wait and take your time!

Some cadres don’t even care about 21, and they can’t be moved by anything they say. They don’t believe in anything now. They think that these high-ranking officials have changed after another, and they all look the same. At that time, he was ambitious, but after working for a while, he became slack. Xijiang Province was still the same, but they started their propaganda machine, blowing it up like a bullshit.They pieced together numbers, made political achievements, and tried every means to get promoted and make a fortune. When they left Xijiang, the task was completed, and Xijiang should be what it is, or what it should be.Anyway, their officials have been promoted or transferred away, and they no longer have any relationship with them.It's still them department-level cadres who stay here and wipe their buttocks and holes for them.

Those old provincial-level veteran cadres would not easily believe anyone from what one person said.They are all old rivers and lakes, and they have traveled too much.They were invited to support the facade, but it was just for show.Some of them, if they take things lightly in the officialdom, they would not even bother to come and sit for a while. For them, sitting there for several hours, not allowed to move, not allowed to go to the toilet, is simply suffering.Those who can come are those who are still a little sensitive and interested in politics and want to know something.Most of them have reached this age, and their health is not good. They either have high blood pressure, heart disease, or diabetes.Even everyone has syndromes.Some are over 80 years old, sitting on the sofa, and their energy is low, and some people have tilted their heads, and their mouths are involuntarily dripping.

Besides, people of their age have never seen any kind of big storms. They are high-ranking officials themselves, and they all have such experiences.

After stepping down from the stage, they got used to those pretentious and high-sounding officials. When they first came to the stage, they all spoke better than they sang, but what happened?It's all about talking about people and not doing anything about people.For example, when Qian Minggui was first appointed as the acting governor, he also publicly said to everyone: "Whenever I think that there are still 300 million people in our Xijiang Province who have not escaped poverty, I can't sleep! I must put myself I will contribute everything to the land where I was born and raised, and give back to the more than 6000 million people in Xijiang."

What happened? Wasn't he shot dead? He became a famous corrupt official.Anyone can boast, but it is not enough to talk about politics.It is easy to speak human words, but the most important thing is to do human affairs and implement them in a down-to-earth manner. Don't be a giant in words and a dwarf in actions.

So in this kind of meeting, everyone has their own thoughts. The whole meeting place seems to be silent, but in fact everyone is full of turmoil in their hearts. Everyone has their own ideas and judgments. It is really silent at this time. sound.

But such a meeting must be held. This is a necessary form and a customary rule.Although for this one-hour meeting, Mei Zhihong from Beijing had to fly back and forth in the sky, how much gasoline wasted and how much time wasted, no one will account for it.The city party secretaries and mayors of various cities came early last night, took the driver with them, traveled hundreds of kilometers, and had to stay in a hotel for one night.After the meeting this morning, I have to rush back to my own city immediately. There are so many business matters waiting for me to deal with.Even eating and drinking, staying in a hotel, burning gasoline, and adding highway tolls, I don’t know how much money I will waste every time I go back and forth.The two days lost in vain cannot be exchanged no matter how much money is spent. 12 prefectures and cities, 24 secretaries and mayors, 24 high-end cars, or Toyota overbearing off-road vehicles, all of which are fuel tigers. No one cares about these things. It’s politics. cannot be measured on an economic scale.

The directors and bureau chiefs who live in the provincial capitals each have a high-end car, either an Audi or a Buick, and the worst is a Passat. Needless to say, there are hundreds of cars and hundreds of full-time drivers. Idle is also idle, meeting is their most important daily work, this is a common thing, no one thinks about whether it should be like this, anyway, it has always been like this.

Taxpayer's money, just like this is lost silently.The energy and time of senior officials are wasted silently like this. Perhaps these are one of the reasons why Xijiang Province has not been able to develop and the gap with advanced regions is widening!
After the meeting, Mei Zhihong will return to Beijing immediately, and the air ticket is at 11 am.It is already 09:30 in the morning, and we need to rush to the airport immediately.Zhai Junming had already arranged a car, and called the airport to inform them that if they were late, the plane would have to wait for a while.

Mei Zhihong's secretary, Xiao Lu, had returned to the hotel early to pack up his things and prepare his luggage.It was Qin Dalong who saw him off. He had to personally send Mei Zhihong to the airport and board the plane to complete the task.
