Next, most of the Standing Committee members supported Fang Qingyun's election, and finally Song Chaoyang made a final decision and determined that the Shuanghe County Magistrate was Fang Qingyun, and he was also promoted from the deputy department level to the department level.

Of course, the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee decided not to count, Fang Qingyun wants to be the acting county magistrate of Shuanghe County, and he has to pass it at the Standing Committee of the Shuanghe County People's Congress. As for being a real county magistrate, it is even more far from being elected, and he will not be elected until the people's congress in the spring of next year after a formal election. It's just a cutscene, but it's a must-go.

Li Rui was not surprised to see this result, Fang Qingyun, as the boss's old classmate, has this qualification, of course the boss wants to promote him. What's more, if the boss wants to gain a firm foothold in Qingyang City and make political achievements, he must have a group of cronies to faithfully implement his intentions at the grassroots level. Otherwise, even if he is the secretary of the municipal party committee, but the leading cadres at the grassroots level do not follow his intentions and do not implement them, then he can only be an empty commander and will not be able to do anything.

As for where he promoted his cronies, it was nothing more than this: classmates, colleagues, friends, relatives. Fang Qingyun happened to be his old classmate, so of course he was about to be promoted.

Nowadays, when ordinary people talk about the bad deeds of officials, they often like to say "cronyism". But what kind of great sin is this? For a leader, if he does not appoint people to his relatives, should he still appoint people only to the distance? It is because of his "relatives" that he is familiar with and understands the temperament and temperament of this person, and knows what he can and cannot do, so that he can be better appointed. If you are a stranger, who knows what kind of person he is? If you don't even know about human nature, morality, and ability, how dare you let him go and let him do great things?

As ordinary people, of course, we hope that the leaders will select and appoint talents, and appoint people on the basis of merit. But in the domestic officialdom environment, most of the talents and talents are the objects of stifling. What the common people see more often is that the administrative office is full of some fools and stupid people, who feel that even if they go in, they will do a better job than them. It's just a pity that this is wishful thinking.

In China, from ancient times to the present, when leaders promote subordinates, stupidity has never been a derogatory term. Leaders only need two kinds of subordinates: one is a person who can do things, some of these people are enough, not too many, and the other is an obedient person, and the more the better.

It seems a bit dark to say this, of course, there are still some clean officials and good ministers, such as Bao Qingtian and the like, such people usually choose clean and honest subordinate officials. It's just that this kind of person is too rare, short-lived, how many have appeared in China for thousands of years?

After determining the candidate for the county magistrate of Shuanghe, Sun Yaozu coughed and said: "Secretary Chaoyang, after Fang Qingyun was promoted to county magistrate, the position of deputy secretary of the county party committee will be vacant. Deputy secretary is also a very important position and cannot be vacant. Song Chaoyang nodded, and said to Lu Jianhua, director of the organization department of the county party committee: "Minister Lu, I want to continue to trouble your organization department, see what inspection procedures should be followed, draw up a list of candidates as soon as possible, and strive to settle it at the next meeting." ”

Lu Jianhua nodded and agreed, and wrote it down in his notebook seriously.

After this agenda item is over, the Standing Committee will theoretically be considered to be finished. However, Song Chaoyang did not dismiss the meeting on official business, but started a family routine with everyone with a smile on his face. Everyone chatted while drinking water, but they were also happy, if outsiders came in at this moment, they would not have thought that this was the scene of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee.

Everyone chatted for a while, and Song Chaoyang said to Li Rui: "Xiao Rui, while all the Standing Committee members are here today, you can briefly tell you about the work of poverty alleviation in the countryside." ”

Li Rui understood that the reason why he wanted to report the poverty alleviation pilot work to the Standing Committee was to play a warm-up role and pave the way for the city-wide poverty alleviation campaign in the future, so he cleared his throat and reported aloud.

Except for a few of the 11 members of the Standing Committee present here, they have basically risen step by step from the grassroots level in townships, towns, and rural areas, and they know the difficulties of rural work, but they do not have much understanding of the difficulties in poverty relief work, and even most of them are not familiar with poverty relief work at all. Today, Li Rui's report made them understand for the first time that there are so many difficulties in poverty alleviation work.

So, Sun Yaozu retreated again, shook his head and said: "If you want me to say, let's just conform to the attitude of the province and engage in poverty alleviation, there is no need to carry out any large-scale poverty alleviation activities." Xiao Rui, let me ask you, how much is the total cost of food, housing and transportation when you go to the countryside to help the poor this time?"

Li Rui thought for a while and said, "We rent a house from a local villager, and the monthly rent is 500 yuan, which is the main source of expenses. As for the usual meals, it didn't cost much. The bills I calculated yesterday were less than 2,000 yuan, which is all the consumption of two people. ”

Sun Yaozu said: "Look at you, two people went to the countryside to help the poor in less than a month, and they incurred an expense of 2,000 yuan, which is equivalent to a month's salary of a section-level cadre." If 10,000 party members help 10,000 families to do it, these 10,000 cadres will have to incur 5,000 similar expenses, which is a huge burden on the city's finances. And, Xiao Rui, let me ask you again, you went down for a run, did you have any achievements? How many families did you get rich?"

Li Rui said: "Driven by us, a total of 10 poor households in Xiaolongwang Village have launched a small industry of self-help breeding. Nine of them will not see any effect for the time being, and they will not be able to see it until after the beginning of spring next year; one of them has already created a real income through the construction of rockery bonsai, and it is believed that they will be able to get rid of poverty and become rich next year. ”

Sun Yaozu shook his head and said, "In other words, you have almost no achievements on this trip, right?"

Li Rui wanted to refute him very much, that getting rid of poverty and becoming rich is a process, and it is impossible to achieve immediate results, and it is necessary to conceive a baby in October after giving birth, not to mention that several members of a family can get rid of poverty and become rich? As for the effect of poverty alleviation, it is not possible to be anxious. But in front of so many leaders, it was not good to give him no face, so he only said: "The results are divided into actual achievements and potential achievements, and from the actual effect, we really have no achievements." The subtext of this is that if you look at the potential effect, we already have a result.

Sun Yaozu obviously ignored his so-called potential achievements, shook his head and said: "In other words, although your poverty alleviation pilot work has not failed, it is not much better than failure, right?"

Li Rui was easily erased by his words of hard work with Ling Shuyao for nearly a month, not to mention how annoyed he was, but he couldn't say anything, he lowered his head and ignored him.

Song Chaoyang said with a smile: "Mayor Yaozu, it's not me who protects the shortcomings, Xiaorui They have indeed made efforts and made certain achievements, but this achievement will not be effective until next year, after all, poverty alleviation is a process that takes time." You can't say they failed. ”

Sun Yaozu was also trying his best to maintain a friendly and harmonious atmosphere, and also smiled: "I didn't say that they failed, but for the time being, it's almost the same as failure, right?" That's why I said that poverty alleviation is not easy to do, and instead of spending so much manpower, material and financial resources, it is better to find ways to make a fuss about urban construction and development. The city has developed, the total economic volume has increased, and it can also enhance the status of our Qingyang in the province, which is also a great achievement. Although it is feasible to make up for the shortcomings, if the shortcomings are not easy to make up, then you can only increase the volume of the bucket, isn't that the truth?"

Song Chaoyang nodded and said: "The poverty alleviation plan we formulated must be problematic, and the experience and lessons accumulated through Xiaorui's poverty alleviation pilot work will continue to be improved." For the thankless work of poverty alleviation, I am reminded of a poem by Chairman Mao Yi and his old man, called 'The scenery should be long-term, and the amount should be seen'. In fact, he is teaching us not to be anxious about some things, to take a long-term view, and not just to focus on the small interests in front of us. I still want to emphasize that poverty must be supported, and if poverty is not allowed, those poor people in the city will forever drag down the economic development of Qingyang City, and let us rank last in the ranking of provincial cities. As their parents, we are also sorry for their high expectations for us. Okay, that's all I'm going to say, that's all the Standing Committee is here this time, so let's go back and get busy. After speaking, he stood up, looked around, and walked away.

Li Rui felt that the boss's words were a bit heavy, and seemed to be silently giving Sun Yaozu a slap in the face, while sarcastically saying that his vision was too short, while pulling his legs to keep up with the boss, he glanced at Sun Yaozu, his face was really not good-looking, and he said that you deserve it, it was all self-inflicted, as the mayor does not have the consciousness of the mayor, he always pulls the hind legs of the secretary of the municipal party committee on this kind of good thing that benefits the country and the people, and you deserve to be criticized, after walking out of the conference room, I keenly feel that the boss is much tougher than before, and I am happy in my heart, who doesn't want their boss to be a tough personIt's better to be the kind of self-respecting look, so that you can be more powerful as a secretary.

He followed Song Chaoyang back to the office, refilled the teacup and put it on his desk.

Song Chaoyang saw him turn around to leave, stopped him, frowned and asked, "Xiao Rui, is what I said just a little too much?" Li Rui said: "It's not too much, it's definitely not too much." You should also be tough, otherwise Mayor Sun will always think that you are weak and can be bullied. Song Chaoyang laughed and said: "It's not as serious as you say, he doesn't dare to bully me, but he always pulls me back, which makes me a little annoyed." Poverty alleviation is to make up for the shortcomings of our Qingyang's economic development, and it is to seek the well-being of millions of ordinary people in a state of poverty, which can be said to be a very good thing, why does he always not agree? Talk about the city finance at every turn, oh, how much money can the city finance save without poverty alleviation? Isn't it all eaten, drunk and entertained by the officials?
