This election is now considered to be a successful conclusion.
Everyone present came to congratulate me. Secretary Chen, Mayor Wen and the deputy directors of the National People's Congress all came to shake hands with me.
Today's election process was filmed and videotaped by the Shangjiang City TV station. It will probably be broadcast on the Shangjiang News tonight. After all, this meeting can be regarded as a major event in the political life of Shangjiang City.
At noon, the Municipal People's Congress held a banquet to congratulate me on my election. However, Mayor Wen said that he had another very important arrangement at noon, so he could not attend the banquet at noon. Of course, he went to tell Secretary Chen the reason, but
I'm just listening.
Secretary Chen said: "It's okay, Lao Wen, you can go."
Mayor Wen then came to me and said, "Mayor Feng, congratulations to you. The government will find another time to hold a banquet to congratulate you."
I hurriedly said: "Mayor Wen, don't be so polite, aren't we a family now?"
I said this in front of Secretary Chen, so I felt very magnanimous in my heart.
Mayor Wen smiled and said: "That's the same thing... Haha! Mayor Feng, you were elected today, let's hold a government executive meeting tomorrow."
I said: "That's your arrangement, I will follow your arrangement at any time."
After Mayor Wen left, everyone went to the restaurant. It was the same place where Minister Yang invited me that day. In fact, in my heart, I don’t agree with such luxury, but after all, it is Secretary Chen’s intention as the director of the National People’s Congress, so in my heart
I can only feel grateful inside.
Because it was noon, no one drank much, but the atmosphere was very lively. Of course, I was also very excited. After all, I finally officially became the deputy mayor of Shangjiang City. Although I knew it before
I know that this so-called election is just a procedure, but the anxiety in my heart still exists.
After finishing the meal, Secretary Chen said to me: "Come and sit in my office?"
I smiled and said, "Okay."
He must have something to discuss with me, I thought to myself.
I didn’t tell anyone else about Mayor Wen’s criticism of me last time, because I’m not the kind of person who likes to talk about things like Mrs. Xianglin. Then again, what’s the point of talking about things like that?
Do you mean? In my heart, I still stick to the bottom line: as long as it is not too much, I will try my best to tolerate it.
Now I realize how happy the people who used to be my lieutenants were, at least I was very tolerant.
Just like last time, Secretary Chen's secretary made me a cup of tea, then filled Secretary Chen's tea cup with boiling water and left.
Secretary Chen boils water and smokes, and he smokes Soft China. Now I am no longer surprised by leaders smoking good cigarettes. Leaders are leaders after all. If they all smoke ordinary cigarettes, how can they meet people when they go out? Inside the cabinet in my office
There are also several soft Chinese ones.
So I took the opportunity and said to him: "Secretary Chen, I don't smoke..."
He smiled and said: "I know, so I didn't give it to you. What? You want to learn to smoke? Don't learn this thing. Look at me, I cough when winter comes, and I want to throw all the cigarettes in the trash."
Get in the bucket!"
I immediately laughed, "No, I used to be a doctor, so I don't have this habit. I mean, the city government office prepared some cigarettes for me, but I don't smoke, so I thought I'd just take them
Let me take care of it for you."
But he waved his hand and said: "No need. That's your work cigarette, and I smoke it too. From now on, you just need to plan more for our municipal party committee's work funds. Your secretary and driver all smoke, right? I'd like to express my condolences."
They. Today’s young people are suffering, their wages are not high, but their consumption is huge. We as leaders should be more considerate of them. Do you think so?”
I immediately felt that I was very boring. I thought what he said was right even though he was not a senior person. Think about it, would a person with his level and position be short of good cigarettes and good drinks? I smiled and said, "Secretary Chen
, what’s the matter with you coming to me?”
He looked at me, shook his head and said: "You, why are you so angry? There are only two of us now, and we are old acquaintances and friends. Why are you so cautious? You were Lin from the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee before you came.
The minister said hello to me and asked me to take good care of you in the future. She said that you have no local work experience, so she is a little worried that you will not adapt well at the beginning. Brother, you, the minister sister, care about you enough.
Of course I will take care of you, even if Minister Lin doesn’t say hello to me, I will definitely take care of you, don’t you think so?”
I smiled and said, "That's right. We are old friends, and you have a lot of local work experience."
He laughed "haha", "As long as you know it in your heart. How about it? What will you gain after this month of research?"
I replied: "I have gained a lot. In the past month, I have conducted research on the main state-owned enterprises in the city, and I have learned that the situation is similar. If I can sum it up in one sentence: the management is backward and the products are backward, so we must
will be eliminated by the market. Therefore, the reform of the city's state-owned enterprises that you proposed is imperative and cannot be delayed."
He nodded, "Your sentence sums it up well. So, do you have any specific ideas? About how to reform."
I said: "Secretary Chen, I think if we are determined to reform these state-owned enterprises, we must first unify our thinking and build confidence. This is not a slogan, but a prerequisite that must be achieved.
The unified thinking is that there should be no noise in the team. As long as the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee passes the reform plan, everyone must implement it unconditionally. In other words, our entire Shangjiang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government can only have one voice. Then
Reform is necessary. Failure to reform is a dead end. In the final analysis, this is a question of building confidence. Secondly, we must formulate a plan for reform. Should the reform be rolled out all at once, implemented step by step, or piloted first?
Then we can carry out the project in an all-round way. Such issues must be thoroughly studied first. The third issue is the guarantee of funds.
In fact, what I am most worried about now is this. We have so many factories and so many workers, and they are all currently facing problems of backward equipment and poor technical levels. If we want to carry out reforms, we must solve some of these problems, which will require a lot of money.
of funds. But our Shangjiang City’s finances are quite difficult. Not long ago, I asked our finance director to find out about the situation. Over the years, our city’s fiscal revenue has been quite bad. Even the minimum investment in health and education has been
All are seriously inadequate. If we want to reform our state-owned enterprises, you can imagine how difficult it will be."
He laughed "haha", "The first two points you mentioned are very good. Unification of thinking and good planning are indeed very important. But I don't agree with the statement that reform costs a lot of money. If we make good planning
, in fact, it doesn’t cost much. Regarding planning, apart from the steps you mentioned, what is more important is the adjustment of industrial structure.
For example, some of our large state-owned enterprises can adjust their industrial structure in the direction of automobile manufacturing, home appliance manufacturing, etc. In this way, we can cooperate with foreign-funded enterprises. Countries such as Germany, Japan, and Italy have great advantages in this regard. They
We must attach great importance to our future huge consumer market and the preferential policies we provide. We can allocate a large piece of land somewhere in the city to build an industrial development park, and let all the factories and mines in the city move out and use their existing
We need to replace the existing land, and we can use the existing land for real estate development. In this way, won’t it be revitalized?
Moreover, the government's finances will also be greatly improved. Not only can we earn a lot of money from the land, but the tax revenue will also increase all of a sudden. Of course, we can also adopt many other methods. The key to the problem is planning.
