Provincial Party Committee

Chapter 38

In the lounge of the Standing Committee, everyone shook hands with Mei Zhihong one by one. Mei Zhihong walked hurriedly, accompanied by Qin Dalong, and got into the car. A police car had already been arranged ahead, and drove out of the compound roaring. Drive to Xijiang Hotel.When he arrived at the place, Xiao Lu had already prepared his luggage.Put on the car, increase the horsepower, and run wildly all the way, because there are policemen clearing the way ahead, regardless of any traffic lights, the whole journey was unimpeded, and finally arrived at the airport ten minutes before the plane took off.Quickly passed security and boarded the plane.As soon as I sat down and took a breath, the plane roared and took off.

Leaders at the level of Mei Zhihong have a full and tight schedule every day. When to go where, who to meet, and what activities to participate in are all arranged by the secretary. They are like a puppet. , Without their own life, day by day, they are also used to it. If there is nothing to do for a day, they are still flustered and feel at a loss.After a year, they don't know how many times they have to turn the earth, and they are basically trapeze people.

After seeing off Mei Zhihong, the members of the Standing Committee returned to the Standing Committee building for the next session, the Standing Committee meeting.There is a 20-minute break between the two meetings. Some members of the Standing Committee are busy going to the bathroom, some are busy smoking, and some are sitting in the conference room chatting.Some seized the time to make reports to Yang Chunfeng.Some saw Liu Fangming sitting there, surrounding him and talking about his own affairs.

Gao Tianmin led Wang Yiming, followed by Xiao Gong and Deputy Secretary-General You Jinping, into Wang Yiming's new office to see the situation.

The meeting room of the Standing Committee is on the second floor, and Wang Yiming's new office is located in the three rooms on the east end of the second floor. It faces the sun and has good lighting. It has large windows, double-glazed glass, and the sound insulation effect is particularly good. There are whirling trees outside. Pushing open the window, you can have a panoramic view of the rockery and bonsai outside, which is very visually comfortable.

The innermost one is a bedroom with a dedicated bathroom, a sofa, Simmons, and a small writing desk. The facilities inside are no worse than those in a four-star hotel. When you are tired from work, you can rest in it.The quilt, pillow cover, and bed sheet are all brand new and white.

There are two large offices connected to the outside, with an area of ​​about 60 square meters, spacious and bright, with wooden floors, which look very high-end.The office desks and chairs, sofa coffee table, and bookcases and filing cabinets inside are all newly replaced. When you enter the room, you can still smell a slight smell of furniture.

The window was open, and Gao Tianmin explained that it had been ventilated for a few days, and there was still some smell, but it was not obvious anymore, so let's see if Secretary Wang is still dissatisfied.

Wang Yiming said: "Very good, very good, there is nothing else, just a place for office work, this condition is better than when I was in Beijing."

Gao Tianmin was relieved after hearing this, thinking that his efforts were not in vain.In order to arrange an office place for Wang Yiming, he went to great lengths.First, I communicated with Liu Fangming, obtained his consent, and gave up the office.They also arranged for people to clean, and some places where the paint was peeled off and aged were redecorated until there were no defects at all, and the curtains were changed, and new furniture was added.Almost everything is newly bought, high-end, stylish, and the office of Yang Chunfeng, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, even the desks and chairs are of the same brand. The whole room looks refreshing.

Gao Tianmin is a careful person. He knows that every leader has his temper and taboos. What the previous leader used is generally not used by the next leader.If you are the secretary-general, if you don’t consider this issue, from the perspective of saving, you can save a sum of money on decoration and buying office equipment, and you can save up to 10,000+ at most. , It's just a drop in the bucket, it's the same with it or without it.The most important thing is that when the new leader arrives, once they find out that you are using the things of the previous leader, they will think you are ignorant and petty, no matter how poor you are, you can't be a poor leader!If you don't even understand this principle, what high-end things can you do!So these things, whoever puts them on, are big things.Don't be careless.

Gao Tianmin was very satisfied with Wang Yiming, and naturally a stone fell to the ground in his heart.Adjacent to these three offices, there is a special office for the secretary.The furniture inside is also brand new, especially the computers and printers on the table are brand new and brand-name.The attendant in the management office gave Xiao Gong two sets of keys.Xiao Gong kept one set in his bag, and put the other set in Wang Yiming's bag.

After a brief look, it was time for the meeting.

When Wang Yiming went in, he saw that everyone had arrived one after another.All standing committee members sat down around Yang Chunfeng according to their ranking order.Everyone has a sign in front of them with their name written on it. In this meeting, reporters were not invited to participate in the video recording.Those who were watching were several deputy secretaries-general and the secretaries of the secretariat, some of whom were taking notes and preparing to issue meeting minutes or briefings.

The content of the meeting was mainly that Yang Chunfeng announced the adjustment of the division of labor among several deputy secretaries.

Yang Chunfeng took a sip of water and said earnestly to everyone: "The work done by our leadership team of the Provincial Party Committee in the past three years has been affirmed many times by the leaders of the Central Committee. This time, the Central Committee arranged for Comrade Yiming to come to our Xijiang River As the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, on the one hand, it has added fresh blood to us. On the other hand, it is an elaborate arrangement focusing on the long-term development of Xijiang. We must understand this. In view of this, Comrade Fangming and I discussed it , and solicited the opinions of several members of the Standing Committee, and preliminarily adjusted the division of labor of several deputy secretaries. The documents in everyone's hands are our preliminary opinions. Let's see what everyone thinks. . Let’s talk about it.”

Everyone read it in detail and felt that there was nothing wrong with it. Wang Yiming ranked first. He should be the deputy secretary of the organization, in charge of the organization department, workers, youth and women, and the party school. He also served as the principal of the provincial party school.Zhou Guangsheng served as the deputy secretary for publicity, in charge of the Propaganda Department, and contacted news and publishing units.Li Yao no longer served as the deputy secretary for publicity, and was planning to take the post of deputy secretary of the provincial party committee as well as secretary of the Jiangcheng party committee.The division of labor among the others remained unchanged. With such an arrangement, only Zhou Guangsheng might feel uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to express anything.If you object to something that has already been decided by the secretary of the provincial party committee and the governor, you will only be humiliating yourself.

As for Zhou Guangsheng, from the bottom of his heart, he still prefers to go down and serve as Jiangcheng City Party Secretary.The current provincial capital is incredible. It is the political, economic and cultural center of the whole province. The permanent population plus the floating population is already more than 200 million in the urban area alone. Including the seven suburban counties, the total The population is close to 800 million, and the GDP is close to 1000 billion yuan, which is about the same as that of an African country.

The most important thing is that it is a typical feudal lord who wants money and people, and he can do whatever he wants, and he can promote whoever he wants. In a word, the entire Jiangcheng City of more than 4 square kilometers is his private land.He can do whatever he wants, and almost no one can restrain him. As the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, that is, Governor Liu Fangming, what he wants to do depends on whether Zhou Guangsheng cooperates or not.That is the real strength faction!It is simply not the same as the current deputy secretary.

But he also knew that due to his personality and his personal relationship with Yang Chunfeng and Liu Fangming, it was unlikely that the most sought-after position in the eyes of the provincial cadres would fall into Zhou Guangsheng's hands, because he was a local faction. They belonged to the powerful faction, and although Yang Chunfeng and Liu Fangming came from different places and did not belong to the same faction, they were both cadres from other places, and they had a common defensive mentality towards local cadres in Xijiang.They would rather use foreign monks than local monks, because they are afraid that you will have too many connections, and it will be difficult to control.The problems left by Xie Qingsong and Qian Minggui in the past shocked them too much.When they were in power, they promoted a large number of their fellow countrymen, classmates, and colleagues. Each key department was controlled by their own people. Some directors were from Xie Qingsong, and the deputy directors must be rich and famous. .The secretary of the municipal party committee was promoted by Xie Qingsong, and the mayor might be recommended by Qian Minggui.One of them, the secretary of the provincial party committee, and the other the governor, took the lead in forming cliques in the whole province, which made the officials below feel in a dilemma.Either join this side, or cling to that side, it doesn't matter, just do everything possible to give gifts, things, and people.Some people will do all kinds of despicable things in order to get promoted and keep their officials.

There was a deputy mayor of a city who wanted to be promoted to mayor, so he did everything possible to ask people to make connections, and gave gifts to Qian Minggui's house, but found that the effect was not obvious.If you want to give money, you are not the top leader and have little power. After many years, you have not embezzled much money.After thinking about it, he felt that it was better to work on women.Although his wife is half-mature, she was very beautiful when she was young, and now she is dressed up, and she is also very pretty. After all, urban women are well maintained. They are only 40 years old. They have a plump body, beautiful curves, and a mature woman charm.He himself felt that with his wife's appearance, she really wanted to use some beauty tricks, and maybe Qian Minggui would fall into the trap soon.Because everyone knows that Qian Minggui is notoriously lustful, and sometimes he can take care of women, young and old, and he especially likes women who take the initiative. He thinks that he looks attractive like this.So the deputy mayor asked his wife to be a diplomat. First, he got in touch with Qian Minggui's wife, went shopping with Qian Minggui's wife, went out on a trip, gave away things and money, and bought money. The famous wife, having gained her trust, can freely enter and leave the rich and expensive home.

For this beautiful woman who came to his door, Qian Minggui has long had a crush on her, but because she is his wife's best friend, it is difficult to start, besides, it is not convenient for his wife to be around.But the two sides are flirting with each other, but they have already secretly agreed.Because Qian Minggui's son was studying in the UK, other people followed suit and arranged for Qian Minggui's wife to go abroad to see his son.During this vacancy, the wife of the deputy mayor went in and out of Qian Minggui's house in the name of helping Qian Minggui with housework.During Qian Minggui's lunch break, he went up to the bedroom on the third floor in the name of helping make the mattress.On the big bed where Qian Minggui and his wife had a good time together, that woman tried all kinds of charms and finally broke down all of Qian Minggui's psychological defenses. For the first time in her own home, she had a peace with a woman other than his wife.The woman used all her enthusiasm and skillful skills to serve Qian Minggui to the point of death, and finally agreed to speak for her husband's promotion.

As a result, the deputy mayor who took the initiative to put a green hat on himself was finally promoted and reused as he wished, and was exchanged to another city to serve as the mayor.Even after Qian Minggui's accident, because he was the mayor who sacrificed his wife's body in exchange for not much money, the relevant departments did not have much conclusive evidence to prove that his promotion as mayor was improper.So he, the mayor, continued to have a prosperous official career, and was later transferred back to the province to become the director of a department directly under the province, and he was still a department-level cadre.On the contrary, those who gave money to buy officials, because the amount of money given was large, constituted a crime of bribery, so when something happened to Qian Minggui, they followed suit. One by one, they lost their officials and went to prison.Basically, they were all dismissed from public office, even if they were released from prison, they became jobless vagrants.On the contrary, the one who gave his wife to Qian Minggui to play with, did nothing at all, the officials did as they did, and the money was taken as they did, not a penny, and the couple were hardly affected in any way, which really made those down-and-out corrupt officials feel envious Terrible.

Therefore, after Yang Chunfeng and Liu Fangming became the secretary of the provincial party committee and the governor, the two exchanged their opinions in private. Given the fact that the local cadres in Xijiang have serious factions and the relationship is intertwined, it is impossible to restore the vitality of Xijiang's officialdom without major surgery. .So when promoting new cadres, both of them started to select those cadres who were not from local background, but came to work in Xijiang after graduating from university, grew up in Xijiang, or cadres who came from other provinces for exchange.For a while, the Xijiang cadres were panicked, thinking that the local cadres had been suppressed.And the most official local cadre at present is Zhou Guangsheng.Therefore, many local cadres kept complaining to Zhou Guangsheng, and Zhou Guangsheng could only comfort them symbolically.In the entire Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, only he and Gao Tianmin are the only remaining cadres of local origin. Knowing that you are climbing up, you will not consider the interests of others at all.Therefore, if the local cadres are not united, they will easily be divided and disintegrated, and they will be divided and ruled.

Regarding the current situation, Zhou Guangsheng thought about it for a while, and felt that he really had no choice but to be patient.So I advise everyone to accept the reality, take the overall situation into consideration, and not to move around too much, lest people will be caught and suffer a larger blow.

In view of the current actual situation, Zhou Guangsheng himself believed that it was more reasonable for Li Yao to concurrently serve as the Jiangcheng Party Secretary, and everyone could accept it.

Since no one had any different opinions, the document was passed quickly, and the meeting was only held for half an hour before Yang Chunfeng announced the adjournment.

When everyone stood up, Gao Tianmin said: "Leaders, the Standing Committee team will hold a big party to welcome Secretary Wang Yiming. The place will be at the Presidential Box in the VIP Building of Xijiang Holiday Hotel at seven o'clock in the evening. I hope that the Standing Committee members who are at home If you can attend on time, if you cannot attend, you must explain the situation to Secretary Chunfeng."

Everyone said that they attended on time.

Returning to the office after the meeting, Wang Yiming walked around his room a few times to exercise his muscles, and You Jinping came in with some urgent documents for Wang Yiming to sign and issue.Wang Yiming saw that there were written opinions written by You Jinping on it. Everything was handled in an orderly manner. His task was to check it out and sign it at the end.As a high-ranking official, with a few capable assistants, things are much easier to handle. Everything has been considered for you in advance. All you have to do is to sign and say a few words, or say: "Being an official is the easiest."

Wang Yiming quickly signed it and said, "Implement it as soon as possible."

But You Jinping did not leave. He said, "Secretary Wang, the workers, young women, and leaders of the party school you are in charge of have entrusted me to invite you to visit them, give speeches, and boost morale. I told them that you just took office. , I'm very busy, I'll think about it when I have time. They don't listen to these top leaders, they all want to report to your office first in these few days, do you think I agree or not?"

Wang Yiming thought for a while and said: "Okay, if I have time, I can arrange it, starting from this morning. I will meet them one by one, get to know people, and we will work together in the future. It will be a long time! These units, I want to Look at each family. You should discuss with Xiaogong about the specific time. If there is no meeting, I am willing to run down there. In addition, I have a plan. You should think about it first. Can we spare two days a week? Time, run through the following more than 80 counties, try to complete the run in one or two years, and get familiar with the situation at the grassroots level. The most important thing is to recognize those county party secretaries and county magistrates working at the grassroots level. In China, they are the closest to the grassroots and peasants. Only by understanding their thinking can we understand the thoughts of most grassroots cadres. Many of the people we promote now are cadres who came from county party secretaries. In the future, these people will go to a higher level. As a senior leadership position, as the deputy secretary of the organization that selects and appoints people, this is my job."

You Jinping said: "Okay, okay, Secretary Gong and I will figure it out and make a plan first." After saying that, he withdrew.

There are piles of confidential documents on the table, waiting to be read.So Wang Yiming opened it and looked at them one by one.For a cadre at his level, it takes several hours a day just to read documents.Many documents cannot be left overnight. They must arrive on the same day, read them on the same day, give instructions on the same day, and quickly deploy the work that needs to be done.Especially those top-secret documents instructed by superior leaders, especially the main leaders of the central government, cannot be delayed.Some documents are specially delivered by confidential officers, who stand next to you and watch you read them and sign them before taking them back. They are kept and processed by special personnel, which is required by the confidentiality system.

Wang Yiming looked at it for a while, and Xiao Gong knocked on the door and said, "Vice Governor Hu Fangda called and wanted to talk to you."

Wang Yiming said, "Okay, turn around."

Picking up the phone, it was indeed Hu Fangda's bold voice.

"Brother Yiming, hello, I'm Hu Fangda."

"Hello, buddy."

"First of all, congratulations. I wanted to talk to you a long time ago, but I was afraid that you were busy, so I didn't dare to disturb you. Now, you are our deputy secretary of Xijiang. I really didn't expect it. It seems that the people of Xijiang will be blessed in the future It is definitely the correct decision of the central government to put a leader as capable and qualified as you in Xijiang."

Wang Yiming heard what he said, all in a flattering tone, still a bit tacky in the officialdom, so he diverted the conversation and said: "We won't talk about this, it's just an organizational arrangement, and there is no need to think too much about it. Well, cadres at our level can't help themselves when they think about it, and they must completely obey the organizational arrangements."

"That's, that's, anyway, it's a good thing, at least we are old friends, and now we work in the same city, so we can take care of each other."

"Yeah, I just came here, and I'm not familiar with the situation here, so I still need a lot of help from your old brother."

"If you say that, you will see outsiders, and I should take it for granted."

The two chattered for a while before getting to the point.Hu Fangda said: "I don't know when my brother will have time. Let's have a meal together. I will arrange it. We haven't chatted for a long time."
