I have a hunch that the conflict between myself and Mayor Wen will break out sooner or later.
Because, I have realized that the factors that constitute the contradiction between us already exist——
The conflict between Secretary Chen and him seems to have become inevitable, but I can only stand on Secretary Chen’s side. Now I realize that I don’t seem to have a choice in this matter, because I am not allowed to do anything in public or private matters.
There are other options;
Reform in Shangjiang City is imperative, and any behavior that obstructs reform, or any behavior that is seen as obstructing reform, will pay a price. And I will definitely not subjectively obstruct it, and I don’t want to be regarded as such.
Because it is obstructing.
This is regarded as something that is too subtle, and even a little scary. Because even though I am not opposed to reform in my heart, and in the case of supporting reform, if it is because I am not on the right team, then it is very likely that I will be on the right side.
Disagreements on a certain project, or otherwise, may be seen as an obstruction to reform.
But this perceived initiative is in the hands of Secretary Chen, the top leader in Shangjiang City. There is no doubt about this. Now it seems that the matter of Minister Yang inviting me to dinner that night was not just as simple as eating.
It should be a display of strength by Secretary Chen in front of me. His purpose should be to make me more determined to join his camp. It can be seen that his two deputies, as well as Minister Yang, and the municipal party committee organization
The two deputy ministers of the ministry, these people already belong to Secretary Chen’s camp.
Perhaps after Secretary Chen arrived in Shangjiang City, this has been the main thing he has done so far. But I understand very well that as secretary of the municipal party committee, controlling the overall situation is what he needs and must do first and foremost.
Therefore, when I had to make that choice, the conflict between myself and Mayor Wen had become inevitable, and it was even more so from today's situation.
However, I feel that Mayor Wen should not be so simple and rude in his working methods. Perhaps he has realized that I can only make that choice, so he uses that method to warn me. Perhaps his purpose is just
One, that is to warn me not to stay too far away from him.
Maybe on the first day I arrived in Shangjiang City, when Secretary Chen came to greet me in person and in such a high-profile manner, he had already realized it.
Therefore, I realized that I would face more storms in the future, and Mayor Wen's attack on me this time may have just begun.
But I don’t have to worry about my own election, because Mayor Wen doesn’t dare, and he won’t be stupid enough to go against the organization’s intentions.
A month later, the Standing Committee of the Shangjiang Municipal People's Congress held its third meeting of the year to elect me as the deputy mayor of Shangjiang Municipality.
Before the National People's Congress Standing Committee voted, Mayor Wen first introduced my resume, and then I introduced myself. This was actually my candidate speech——
Dear Director, Deputy Directors, Members of the Standing Committee:
Since I joined the work, I have been insisting on conscientiously studying the party's line, principles, and policies, and striving to improve my political theory level. In my work, I insist on strictly demanding myself according to the standards of a party member leading cadre, conscientiously implement the decisions of superiors, and consciously abide by party discipline.
We must adhere to the laws of the country, strive to adhere to principles, be fair and decent, fulfill our duties, and better complete various tasks in different positions.
Today, Mayor Wen proposed to this meeting of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress that I be appointed as the deputy mayor of Shangjiang Municipal People's Government. This is the organization's trust in me. If the meeting can pass my appointment, I will live up to the party and the people.
With high expectations and great trust, we will work hard and fulfill our duties to promote the healthy, rapid and coordinated development of the city's economy and society. We will do our best to do the following:
1. Further strengthen the cultivation of party spirit and strengthen ideals and beliefs.

Second, strengthen self-construction and improve integrity and self-discipline.

3. Do a good job in unity and cooperation to safeguard the overall situation of the work. Adhere to the principle of democratic centralism, consciously obey the leadership of the organization, and resolutely implement the decisions and arrangements of the superior party committee, government, municipal committee, and municipal government.

If my appointment cannot be approved at this meeting, it means that I am still far behind the requirements of the party and the people. I will continue to work hard, carry forward my achievements, correct my shortcomings, strengthen my study, work diligently, strictly require, and conscientiously complete all tasks assigned by the organization.
task, further accept the test of the party and the people, and become a civil servant trusted by the party and the people.
thank you all!
The content of a speech like this must be simple and clear. In the final analysis, it is just a statement. And be sure to remember gorgeous rhetoric and avoid flashy rhetoric.
For this election speech, I specifically asked Lin Yu, and she told me this principle herself.
After my speech, the members of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress applauded enthusiastically.
Of course, I know that this is also a procedure, because the applause was led by Secretary Chen, who is also the director of the National People's Congress.
Next, Secretary Chen gave a speech, mainly to introduce my past glorious political achievements to the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress. In fact, he was also under great pressure, because he had to ensure that I would be elected without any suspense. If the organizational intentions could not be realized, he would be
Subject to organizational sanctions.
Then the National People's Congress Standing Committee members began to vote.
Soon, the results of their vote for me came out: of the forty-nine National People's Congress Standing Committee members who attended the meeting, forty-eight voted in favor and one abstained.
So Secretary Chen, no, at this moment his identity is Director Chen, Director of the Standing Committee of the Shangjiang Municipal People’s Congress, he announced my appointment.
In other words, from this moment on, I have truly become the deputy mayor of Shangjiang City. And my appointment as executive deputy mayor is still in the next step: it must be announced at the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee.
This National People's Congress meeting is not over because I still have to give my election speech——
Dear Director, Deputy Directors, Members of the Standing Committee:
