Chapter 177 The Dust Settles
As the weather warmed day by day, a week later, the municipal party committee finally passed the personnel changes of the leadership team of the Nanqiao County Party Committee. In the afternoon, Nanqiao County held a county-wide cadre meeting.
In the words of the news, in March, Nanqiao is bright, with blue sky and flowers flying in color. The Nanjia County Party Committee held a county-wide cadre meeting. The meeting was chaired by Comrade Ji Faling, Secretary of the Nanqiao County Party Committee. Comrade Guo Wending, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and Minister of Organization, took the time to attend the meeting to give important instructions, and announced the adjustment of some members of the Standing Committee of the Nanqiao County Party Committee...
The rostrum was full of seats, and Guo Wending sat in the middle, with Ji Faling and Yang Liqing on both sides, respectively on the left and right, Deputy Minister Liu of the Standing Committee and Municipal Party Committee Organization Department, and Yang Gensheng, Director of the Second Cadre Department, also sat on the rostrum. However, the most eye-catching one was the two people sitting on the edge, one was Wu Dabao with a red face; the other was a middle-aged man in his early forties, who was relatively unfamiliar, but everyone knew that this person was the candidate for the executive deputy county magistrate who was about to replace Su Zhiqiang.
"Comrades, according to the instructions of the Municipal Party Committee, today we hold an important meeting. There are two topics in today's meeting. One is Comrade Guo Wending, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and Minister of Organization, delivered an important speech, and the other is announcing the personnel appointment and removal of the county party committee." Ji Faling, who presided over the meeting, did not say much, and had a concise and clear opening remark, "Next, we welcome Minister Guo to make an important speech with warm applause."
Guo Wending first talked about the idea of serving the people at all levels, cherish the opportunity to serve the people, correctly understand the power given to us by the people, correctly use the power in his hands, and serve the people wholeheartedly. When talking about power, he said: "The British historian Acton once said, 'Of all the reasons that make people degenerate and moral degradation, power is the most eternal and active'. Comrades, think about it, if those corrupt elements do not have important positions, can they fall into the opposite side of the people and become sinners? Water can carry boats or overturn the boats, and power is the same, like a "double-edged sword". Power can make people noble and destroy people. The key is whether the people who hold power can correctly understand and
Make good use of the power in your hands. Different people have different views on power, and different views on power will lead to different ways of using power and the results of using power. Jiao Yulu, Kong Fansen, Zheng Peimin and other large number of outstanding party members and leading cadres always regard the power granted by the Party and the people as a responsibility and obligation. All things are the first, and therefore they are loved and supported by the people. On the contrary, those corrupt elements regard the power in their hands as privileges, and regard the power given by the Party and the people as a tool for personal gain or small group interests. They betray the Party’s purpose, lose the Party’s principles, completely reach the opposite of the people, and are severely punished by the law! Therefore, everyone must remember the lessons and cherish the opportunity to serve the people..."
After Guo Wending finished his long speech, Vice Minister Liu announced the decision of the municipal party committee: "...Comrade Yu Shungen was removed from his position as Organization Minister of Nanqiao County Party Committee, Comrade Su Zhiqiang was removed from his position as Standing Committee Member of Nanqiao County Party Committee and Deputy County Mayor, and there will be another appointment. Comrade Cai Yongbin was appointed as Organization Minister of Nanqiao County Party Committee, Comrade Shen Chao was appointed as Standing Committee Member of Nanqiao County Party Committee and suggested the candidates for deputy county magistrates, Comrade Wu Dabao was appointed as Standing Committee Member of Nanqiao County Party Committee and Propaganda Minister..."
Guo Wending then added a few points. This personnel adjustment was carefully considered by the Municipal Party Committee and put forward some hopes. He hoped that under the leadership of the squad leader Ji Faling, the team members would be united, have a good spirit, and have strong strength. The team members would perform their duties, perform their responsibilities, cooperate with each other, concentrate their efforts, and do all the work. The Municipal Party Committee trusts Comrade Ji Faling and is satisfied with the work of Nanqiao County.
Next, the new staff spoke. Li Rui sat down and listened. Suddenly he felt that their speech was a bit like the award-winning speeches of the actors on TV in later generations. They were nothing more than thanking the leaders for their trust and then expressing their determination.
Su Zhiqiang, who came back from Jiangning, also recalled his battle process of spending time with his comrades day and night in Nanqiao and constantly achieving new achievements in his work, fully expressing his gratitude to the comrades and his reluctance to Nanqiao.
After the meeting, Li Rui was about to leave the venue with the abortion, Wang Yougen ran over and called him, "Director Li, Secretary Ji asked you to attend the evening reception."
"Okay, thank you Director Wang."
Generally, this kind of reception is limited to the participation of leaders at the deputy county level or above. Many people around him heard it and looked at him with envious eyes. They were all the top leaders of townships and committee offices and bureaus present, and in theory they were reserve candidates for deputy county-level cadres. Although there were extremely few people who could go up, who would not want to toast with the leaders of the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department!
Gu Xiaodong patted his shoulder and said jealously: "Brother, I will pay my best wishes to the leader for two glasses of wine later. The new one will be your and my subordinate leader in the future."
The new deputy county magistrate Shen Chao, although the cadres of Nanqiao are unfamiliar with him, Li Rui still knows him. He was the deputy director of the Municipal Economic and Trade Commission before. Li Rui had dealt with him twice when he was in the Planning Commission. He had a good relationship with Liang Yongqiu, the deputy director of the Planning Commission. They were both capable generals of the Executive Vice Mayor Li Yifeng. This time Li Yifeng could recommend him to serve as the executive deputy county magistrate of Nanqiao, which shows that he still trusts him quite a lot.
In addition to all members of the county party committee standing committee, the main leaders of the National People's Congress and the CPPCC, and the deputy county magistrates, there were only section-level cadres, including Li Rui, the director of the county government office, and Hou Weidong, the director of the finance department. They sat on the same table with Yang Gensheng, director of the Second Department of the Organization Department. Li Rui and Yang Gensheng are old acquaintances, and when he came to Nanqiao to take office, it was Yang Gensheng who sent him. Yang Gensheng himself was from Nanqiao and was familiar with others. Everyone talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was very warm.
As usual, it was almost time for them to toast the leaders. Because of their qualifications, Li Rui followed the last one. Guo Wending was very reserved in the previous toasts. Except for the time when he was clinking with Ji Faling and Yang Liqing, the other county leaders usually toast half a cup. In the end, it was Li Rui and the others who went to toast the wine were just wet. But the toasts were still very tirring and fucked the full cup.
"Haha, Li Rui! You kid actually hide at the end, come, cheers." Seeing Li Rui, Guo Wending's rigid face suddenly became richer. He smiled and picked up the wine glass and touched Li Rui, raised his head and drank it all.
Then he pointed at Li Rui and smiled at Ji Faling sitting beside him and said, "Secretary Ji, this kid has caused you a lot of trouble in Nanqiao, right?"
Ji Faling asked Li Rui to attend the reception today because of his relationship with Guo Wending. He waved his hand with a smile: "No, no! I also want to thank Minister Guo for sending us such a very capable young cadre. Li Rui works very well in the Coal Management Bureau, which can be said to have created a new situation. Minister Guo, I will ask you to take care of you in the future and send more young cadres like Li Rui to improve the overall combat effectiveness of our Nanqiao cadre team. By then, I, as the secretary of the county party committee, would be much easier to be a county party secretary! County Magistrate Yang, are you?" As he said that, Ji Faling asked Yang Liqing, who was sitting on Guo Wending's right hand with a smile.
What can Yang Liqing say? In front of Guo Wending, he could only laugh dryly: "Yes, Secretary Ji is right. Comrade Li Rui is indeed very capable. Under his leadership, the Coal Management Bureau has a very good job."
"Hahaha! Minister Guo, do you think I'm right? County Magistrate Yang has the most say." Ji Faling said with a smile.
"Since the two leaders are so sure of him, I have nothing to say. Haha, Li Rui is not happy to treat Secretary Ji and County Mayor Yang with a cup, so he should be more sincere."
Everyone knows that Li Rui's backstage is Minister Guo, but everyone has heard of it and has never seen anyone. I know it in my heart when I see it today. It's not just the backstage. Minister Guo really treats Li Rui like his nephew! Many people's eyes when they look at Li Rui have changed.
Li Rui didn't know that Guo Wending was helping him build momentum, and he was quite grateful. He quickly filled the cup and first respected Ji Faling and Yang Liqing with a cup. Ji Faling naturally had nothing to say. Yang Liqing also fully showed his affirmation of him at this time, with a smile on his face. While having a drink, he also encouraged him a few words.
Li Rui simply took the wine bottle and passed the pass. Whether it was familiar or unfamiliar, whether it was really optimistic about him or had some opinions about him, the leaders in front set an example, and they all worked as a drink. However, the director of the National People's Congress and the CPPCC were very enthusiastic about Li Rui, which was also the role of the red envelope at the end of last year. There were not many people like him who were young and had a backstage and knew how to respect old cadres. The two old guys also sighed in front of Guo Wending.
"Director Li, I hope to support my work more in the future!" Shen Chao stood up with a smile and clinked glasses with Li Rui.
"Where, I will be a soldier under your command from now on. I will ask County Mayor Shen for more care."
Although Shen Chao's appointment of deputy county magistrate will pass the National People's Congress vote, this is a foregone conclusion. Today, everyone has called him the county magistrate.
Li Rui was relieved when he saw his eyes sincere and not as if he was fake. After all, Su Zhiqiang was in front of him and shared a lot of pressure from Yang Liqing. If he was not in a position as the director of the Coal Management Bureau in the future, no matter whether he was still in the position of director of the coal management bureau in the future, there was a layer of protection. If he colluded with Yang Liqing, Gou Fugui and others, life would be sad. On the other hand, he thought that although Shen Chao was Li Yifeng's person, he was weak after all when he came to Nanqiao. What he urgently needed now was to win people's hearts and build his own team as soon as possible. The legacy left by Su Zhiqiang was his best goal. Of course, what he could rely on now was Ji Faling, the county party secretary. After all, there were too many conflicts of interest between the county magistrate and the executive deputy county magistrate, unless he wanted to completely become a vassal of Yang Liqing.
Chapter completed!
