As I once told Secretary Rong, after the gambling case was cracked, not only was our work in Shangjiang City not affected, but it was praised by provincial leaders and local people, and the style of our cadres in Shangjiang City was also praised.
There have been great changes. The Municipal Party Committee took this opportunity to make a major adjustment to the city's cadres, allowing those responsible persons who had stayed in the same position for too long to move.
Moreover, this case also involved the corruption of more than a dozen cadres, and this time they were all dealt with together.
Secretary Rong summed up this cadre adjustment in one sentence: Only when cadres move around can they become more dynamic.
She said: "Through the flow of cadres, the structure of the cadre team can be optimized. New positions and new environments can better mobilize the enthusiasm of cadres, stimulate their intelligence, optimize the allocation of talent groups within the unit, improve the overall work efficiency of the unit, and achieve the goals of cadres.
The sustainable development of the team. For cadres from the grassroots to the government agencies, cadres who work on the front line at the grassroots level, understand the sufferings of the masses, and have rich practical experience can further deepen their theoretical study, directly respond to problems in implementation to the decision-making organs, and exert their ability to understand the situation.
Advantages, a more accurate understanding of the decision-making intentions of superior authorities, and the fundamental interests of the masses are guaranteed. At the same time, it is also conducive to forming a situation where talents compete on an equal footing and stand out, and curb the growth of bureaucracy..."
There have been a lot of meetings in the city recently, mainly held by the municipal party committee. I don't know why Secretary Rong has changed so much. She feels to me like she is following the old path of Secretary Chen - personal expansion.
But now I don't say anything more, because I didn't find her doing anything out of the ordinary besides attending meetings. At least she is not greedy and has no style problems.
But holding meetings like this frequently will definitely have a great impact on my work. Meetings take up a lot of my time, but I have so many things to deal with. Currently, there are so many key projects in Shangjiang City.
There are construction sites everywhere, and there are many problems among them. Not long ago, a foreign investor’s project had problems with safety measures, resulting in the death of two construction workers on the construction site. The compensation paid by the developer made the deceased’s family dissatisfied.
The matter came to the city government.
During that time, I was in meetings every day. After Mayor Wu went to deal with it, the family members of the deceased were still dissatisfied and still made trouble in the city hall every day. I had no choice but to ask for leave from Secretary Rong and go to deal with it myself.
Regarding this, Secretary Rong was still a little dissatisfied with me. She said to me: "You are the mayor, so just let the mayor handle such issues. The mayor must deal with major issues."
Of course I knew what she said was right, but if things like this were not handled in time, they would likely have sequelae. I said to her: "Secretary Rong, this kind of thing must be handled immediately, in case the family of the deceased goes to
If we appeal to the province or Beijing, the problem will be troublesome. Now it doesn't matter if we have some trouble here, at least we can solve the problem completely. Where is the authority of the deputy mayor in charge, and there are some things that I can't decide. So, I can only go there.
"
She didn't say anything else.
Now I suddenly have a feeling that sometimes the first-in-command and the second-in-command are really like a couple. After being together for a long time, no matter how harmonious they are at the beginning, some friction will gradually appear. For example, right now, I feel like
I already feel that she shouldn't take meetings more seriously than doing practical work.
Of course, as for me, I will definitely not easily conflict with her. This is the duty of the second-in-command. Also, conflicts between the party and the government often occur anywhere and at any time. Among them,
The main reason is that the second-in-command refuses to give in. I have experienced so many things before, and I am fully aware of the problems and the harm of conflicts. Therefore, I often remind myself in my heart: It is not a big deal.
As long as it is not a matter of principle and as long as it does not affect the overall situation, you should take the initiative to make concessions on anything.
Once, Mayor Wu and I talked about this matter in private. I asked him tentatively: "Old Wu, do you also think that we have too many meetings recently?"
He nodded and said, "Yes, holding meetings every day will affect the work of the city government."
I looked at him and said, "Old Wu, you have been in the officialdom longer than me. Analyze, analyze, why Secretary Rong suddenly likes meetings so much?"
He looked at me and smiled meaningfully at me, "Mayor Feng, do you know why every leader of our country has to put forward his own doctrine or theme?"
I was confused, "This is very simple. It is to establish the characteristics of governance and determine its historical status. What does that have to do with the current affairs in Shangjiang City?"
He smiled and said: "Of course it does matter. I see that Secretary Rong is now preparing for her next development. Now, there is no problem with the economic development of our Shangjiang City. In other words, as the municipal party committee secretary,
She has completed her first step, which is to stabilize the political situation in Shangjiang City and put the reform and economic development on the right track. It can be said that she has completed the tasks assigned by the provincial party committee and the provincial government.
Her main mission."
I nodded, "Yes. But, what does this have to do with her organizing meetings every day?"
He asked me: "Mayor Feng, what do you think is Secretary Rong's biggest shortcoming? No, what do you think is her biggest shortcoming?"
I thought about it and said, "It seems... that she is a little less courageous. But she is a lesbian, and she cannot be as arrogant as a gay man."
He smiled and nodded: "Yes. Mayor Feng, you are right. So, what she has to do now is to establish greater prestige. Meetings are just a formality. Look at the recent meetings of the Municipal Party Committee
What is the content? It is mainly about the education of cadres, right? Most of the contents studied by the Standing Committee are also related to the adjustment of cadres.
After experiencing a smooth transition in the early stage of our Shangjiang City, large-scale cadre adjustments have just begun. Although she has said that the cadre promotion system will be reformed, is this possible? The problem with the cadre system is the above-mentioned matter.
It is a major event at the national level. How can a place like Shangjiang City take the lead?
This is a political issue. She can raise it, but it is very difficult to do it, and it is also very easy to make mistakes. But she does want to change it, or she wants to do some exploration in this area.
This is possible, and it is very easy to achieve results, and it is easy to be taken seriously by the superiors. Therefore, I analyze that everything she is doing now is to prepare for the next pilot reform of the cadre system in Shangjiang City.
Meetings are just a means, but the purpose is to unify our thoughts."
I nodded, thinking about what he said.
He continued: "After the ideological unification, subsequent matters will be easier to handle. Then specific policies will be introduced. Mayor Feng, at the last Standing Committee meeting, you were the first to oppose Secretary Rong's proposal. That matter
Although it shows Secretary Rong’s impatient side, isn’t she just trying to test her authority?”
I shook my head and said: "She and Secretary Chen are still different, and her proposal at the time was inherently problematic. Besides, she also said at the beginning that it was the suggestion of the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department."
He said: "It's definitely different. Secretary Chen is called reckless, and Secretary Rong is trying it out first. But then I kept thinking, why was she so calm and impatient about that matter? Mayor Feng, what do you think?
Have you ever had this problem?"
I said: "Yes, I was very strange at the time. So tell me, why is this?"
He shook his head and said: "I can't tell clearly. I've been thinking that the most likely possibility is that she might be promoted in the short term."
I said, "Isn't it possible? How long has she been in our Shangjiang City? She must at least finish her term, right?"
He nodded, "I think so too, but being promoted after one term is considered fast. A term lasts only a few years, and it passes quickly. Today's reform and economic development situation in Shangjiang City
They are all very good. Now that such a foundation has been laid, the next step should of course be cadre issues, Shangjiang City culture and other aspects. This is how I analyze it, and I don’t know if it will be like this in the future."
I deeply agreed, "That's definitely the case. We are building a famous historical and cultural city, and it is inevitable that the municipal party committee will make a fuss about culture." (To be continued)
