Affected by various unfavorable factors such as the economic downturn in the United States and Europe, domestic banks tightening monetary policy, the central government's strict control over excessive investment, and the appreciation of the renminbi, Lingnan's economic growth slowed down in the first quarter, especially exports, which fell by more than ten percentage points.
The statistics compiled by the Audit Office were released to the public, and there was a strong response from all walks of life in Lingnan.
The provincial government held an emergency meeting to discuss countermeasures.
At the provincial government special meeting, the Department of Commerce faced great pressure.
Provincial government leaders interpreted various data on the province's economy this time. Factors such as the slowdown in Lingnan's exports and frequent export trade frictions were important reasons for the unfavorable first quarter of Lingnan's economy.
As for the Department of Commerce, it is the functional department directly responsible for foreign trade cooperation.
Submitting such an answer sheet in the first quarter obviously cannot satisfy the provincial leaders.
In his special speech, Executive Vice Governor Wan Aimin mercilessly criticized the work of the Department of Commerce.
He criticized the Department of Commerce for looking for too many objective reasons and making too little subjective effort.
There is a lack of new highlight policies in foreign trade policy and foreign cooperation.
Especially in terms of organizing exports, the province's textile industry and traditional manufacturing exports have been blocked, which has led to considerable operating difficulties for small and medium-sized enterprises, a large number of companies have closed down, and the number of laid-off and unemployed people has increased. The Department of Commerce is responsible for this.
Wan Aimin's words hit the nail on the head.
Moreover, he also had the first quarter external economic data of New Delhi and Northern Jiangsu in India.
Exports in northern Jiangsu declined slightly, but the overall decline was lower than that in Lingnan.
New Delhi's foreign exports will not increase, but its foreign trade highlights are frequent among third world countries.
Wan Aimin asked the leaders of the Department of Commerce why Lingnan could not do the work that others could do well.
Can this be attributed to the economic situation?
What is the function of the Department of Commerce?
The implementation of foreign trade policies and the promotion and promotion of foreign cooperation are the core tasks of the Department of Commerce.
Now there are no highlights in these two areas of work. What do the team of the Department of Commerce do for a living?
Vice Governor Wan made harsh remarks in his speech. Zhou Wei, who was attending the meeting, felt ashamed. After returning from the provincial meeting, he immediately convened a meeting of cadres above the department level.
During the meeting, Zhou Wei's face was ashen and his words were extremely harsh.
All department heads and department leaders were required to give written explanations, which was actually an inspection.
For a moment, the entire business hall was filled with gloom and gloom.
After the meeting, Executive Deputy Director Hou Fengfei knocked on the door and entered Zhou Wei's office. He pulled his neck and said:
"Director, this is completely unfair! What is the structure of our Lingnan economy? We are all export products with labor-intensive manufacturing as the core. Our products have their own characteristics and limitations. Compare us with Northern Jiangsu.
Isn't this a scam?
There is also foreign cooperation. Our Lingnan enterprises are eager to go global.
But the policy of foreign cooperation is not formulated by us.
It is best for us to implement the policies of the ministry, but given the current environment outside, we are also skilled women who cannot make a living without rice. Doesn’t the province understand these situations?”
Zhou Wei frowned slightly, waved his hand and said: "Lao Hou, complaining is of no use. The current economic situation is like this. Judging from the data, our work has stagnated. If the leaders want to criticize us, besides humbly accepting it, we can also
what to do?"
"Principles are prepared for the winner. Without results, no matter how reasonable it is, it is nonsense. Don't you understand this?"
Hou Fengfei chuckled and said, "I just feel aggrieved. Of course I understand this."
He snorted and said, "But not everyone in our hall is as depressed as we are. Some comrades may even be gloating about our misfortune!"
Hou Fengfei raised her lips and said disdainfully: "Who is this person? He started a project that was neither trivial nor trivial. He got carried away and his words were incoherent after a little bit of momentum. He even forgot that he was a member of the department. Such a cadre,
Should we eliminate it in the next team adjustment?"
Zhou Wei frowned, Hou Fengfei's words were directed at Chen Jing.
Chen Jing is now engaged in famous enterprises and is immediately planning to engage in cross-regional economic cooperation. It seems that the cooperation has considerable prospects.
Compared to the downturn of the Department of Commerce, he seems to be thriving.
"It's useless to complain. The key is to find a way to reverse the situation. We can't be criticized like this forever. If we don't have decent results next quarter, I don't think our team will need to adjust. We can all get out!"
Zhou Wei's tone suddenly changed, and Hou Fengfei's voice became softer.
He sat on the sofa and felt depressed, thinking about various issues in his mind.
After a long time, he frowned and said: "Director, I'm a little confused. Governor Wan has always taken good care of our work in the Department of Commerce. He also knows our difficulties, but why doesn't he give us face like this? It's so embarrassing.
Let us be embarrassed and disgraced in front of our brother units across the province!"
Zhou Wei's face was ashen and extremely ugly.
He is a good-looking person.
Hou Fengfei's words touched his sore spot.
Today he was furious at the meeting inside the hall because he lost face so much.
Looking at the sympathetic looks from colleagues who usually chatted and laughed together and called each other brothers, there were also expressions of gloating on the part of some people.
At that time, Zhou Wei wished he could dig a hole in the ground and crawl in.
After being embarrassed in front of fraternal units across the province, Zhou Wei didn't know how to say hello to those bosses in the future.
"Director, I heard that there is a deep conflict between Governor Wan and Chen Jing. Chen Jing offended him too hard. Do you think this is the reason why he was so rude to our Department of Commerce this time?" Hou Fengfei said, he was cold.
He smiled coldly and said:
"This is really his ***. Chen Jing caused trouble and asked us to wipe his ass. Where is this?"
Zhou Wei said nothing and pursed his lips tightly.
Obviously he hasn't recovered from the meeting during the day. It was a nightmare.
He has been struggling in his official career for so many years, and he has rarely experienced such nightmares.
Chen Jing?
The muscles on Zhou Wei's face twitched, and a bright light flashed in his eyes.
Hou Fengfei added: "Director, the functional business cooperation of our Department of Commerce is the focus. Cooperation includes internal and external cooperation. Is the work of the Economic Cooperation Office now internal or external? Now they want to engage in so-called cross-regional cooperation. Should we?
What is the scope of this management?
We cannot lose control of our functions, I suggest we take action!"
"Action? How to act?" Zhou Wei frowned.
"It's not easy. We need to increase the approval process. All projects led by the Economic Cooperation Office must have a review process by the office. Otherwise, all projects will be invalid. We need to take back some of our rights and cannot give the Economic Cooperation Office too much freedom.
Big.
If you give them too much, they will occupy the manhole and not take a shit, and they will forget about it even if they have some small achievements, and they will not take advantage of their work, right?"
Zhou Wei snorted coldly and said nothing.
To be honest, Zhou Wei was a little disappointed with Hou Fengfei.
Zhou Wei had long regarded him as a pawn, hoping that he could contain Chen Jing and add some sand to Chen Jing's Economic Cooperation Office.
If the work is made more obscure and ambiguous, and if Zhou Wei continues to push the envelope, wouldn't it be possible to control many things?
But Wang Fengfei is simply not qualified for this role.
He's good for nothing but whining.
Some of the ideas I came up with were simply children’s play-house stuff.
Add an approval process and set up cards for economic cooperation projects.
This is not an idea at all. It is simply instructing a doctor to sell medicine kits. It is extremely stupid.
Using this method, Chen Jing could defuse it with every move he made, and he even raked it upside down, leaving the whole hall unable to eat.
Zhou Wei sighed in his heart. He already understood that it was unrealistic to expect Hou Fengfei to contain Chen Jing.
The Yangtze River later pushed back the front wave, and the back wave crushed the front wave to death on the beach.
Hou Fengfei was just a guy who was photographed dead on the beach. How could he be expected to return to his youth and help him solve his problems?
"Lao Hou, go down and have a rest! You should be tired after a day of meetings! Let's discuss work matters in the long run. Some things need to be considered over and over again and taken into consideration. It's not good to make hasty decisions!"
Hou Fengfei was stunned for a moment, then nodded sadly and stood up.
"Wait a minute!" Zhou Wei took out a can of coffee from the drawer and put it on the table:
"Take this, authentic coffee beans imported from Brazil. If you like coffee, I will give you something good!"
"Thank you, thank you!" Hou Fengfei picked up the jar happily, feeling extremely happy.
"Okay, okay! Go and do your work!" Zhou Wei said with a smile. Hou Fengfei went out in a hurry, and the smile on his face faded...
He picked up the phone, pondered for a long time, and finally dialed a number.
When the call was connected, he stood up and said cautiously: "Is it Director Qin? I'm Zhou Wei from the Department of Commerce... You're welcome, you're welcome. Is it convenient for you to talk on the phone now?"
Zhou Wei called Wan Aimin's secretary Qin Lin.
The person who tied the bell must be the one who can untie the bell. If Wan Aimin has any problems, he must be consulted for guidance.
Zhou Wei very carefully confessed his inner shame to Qin Lin, and the two chatted for more than ten minutes.
Zhou Wei felt that Qin Lin didn't seem to be disgusted with him, so he said: "Director Qin, I'm really ashamed. I didn't do a good job and let Governor Wan down. I came back and reviewed it again, and I think I still need to find an opportunity to meet with Wan in person.
Let’s meet with the governor and ask him to give us face-to-face guidance on our work..."
"Okay, okay, thank you, Director Qin. I'm always waiting for your news, thank you, thank you! Let's get together some other day and have a good talk..."
Qin Lin agreed readily, which made Zhou Wei very happy and slightly excited.
Misfortunes are where blessings depend.
What happened today is a bad thing, but who says bad things can't change for the better?
Have more contact with Governor Wan and conscientiously clear Governor Wan's line. Maybe there will be unexpected gains in the future.
You still have to take the initiative, contact your leaders more actively, and accept criticism and guidance from your leaders. This is the only way out... (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
