A few days later, Xu Minglei also had a conversation with Chen Qingdong. However, perhaps because he had asked Kong Yanjun to tell Chen Qingdong everything he needed to say that day, Xu Minglei did not give Chen Qingdong a detailed discussion about the issues that he should pay attention to, but just asked him if he had any plans in the future.

Chen Qingdong said frankly: "Secretary Xu, if I have the opportunity, I still want to go to the city with you." ”

Xu Minglei said: "I also want to take you away, but when I go to the city this time, I may not be able to stabilize in a short time, even if I take you away, I can't arrange any good position for you." So you still stay in Liulin first, after Zong Jie becomes the secretary, it may not be that he will not reuse you! Even if you take a step back, Zong Jie will adjust you to a remote department at that time, it will not necessarily be a bad thing for you. Qingdong, your progress in the past two or three years has been a little too fast, everything is going smoothly, if you encounter a little setback now, it may still play a role in promoting your future career. ”

Chen Qingdong couldn't help but smile bitterly, although Xu Minglei's words sounded a little reasonable, but on the road to his career, everyone was rushing forward with all their strength, who wants to go backwards?

It's just that after listening to Xu Minglei's words, Chen Qingdong knew that he couldn't count on Xu Minglei to take him away for the time being.

"Yes, Secretary Xu, I understand, I will definitely look at this issue dialectically. Chen Qingdong could only say this.

After pondering for a while, Xu Minglei said again: "Qingdong, your relationship with Zhiming should be good, right?"

Chen Qingdong immediately said: "Yes, my relationship with Zhiming is okay. ”

"Well, that's the case, if you have time in the past few days, call Zhiming out for a meal and comfort him. Zhiming is reluctant to arrange for me to give him, and he has been in a bit of a mood these days!" Xu Minglei said with a wry smile.

Chen Qingdong couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, he heard Gao Kun say a few days ago that Xu Minglei might arrange Cai Zhiming to serve as the director of the Cultural Affairs Bureau, which made Chen Qingdong very surprised!

Because according to the usual practice, a leader of Xu Minglei's level, before leaving Liulin, must give his secretary, that is, Cai Zhiming, a proper arrangement!

After all, as a secretary, I have served the leader for so many years, and I have both credit and hard work! Moreover, because of the position, the secretary is very clear about some of the leader's private affairs, and even some gray things that are inconvenient for the leader to handle are handled by the secretary!

Therefore, considering from these two aspects, before Xu Minglei is promoted, the person who should be properly arranged is Cai Zhiming!

The first is to take Cai Zhiming away and let him continue to be his secretary, and this situation is very common! Although there are regulations in many places that leaders are not allowed to take away secretaries when they are transferred, there are still many people who "commit crimes against the wind," and this phenomenon has been repeatedly prohibited!

The second arrangement is to find a good unit for Cai Zhiming and pave the way for his future career! But obviously, the Cultural Affairs Bureau is not such a good unit!

Originally, Chen Qingdong still felt that what Gao Kun said was not necessarily true, but now after listening to Xu Minglei's words, Chen Qingdong thinks that this matter is very likely!

However, Chen Qingdong still pretended not to know anything and asked, "Secretary Xu, don't you take Zhiming away this time, right?"

Xu Minglei said: "I originally had this idea, but the provincial party committee issued a document when it was re-elected last year, and the leaders were not allowed to take away the secretary when they were transferred in the future, so I couldn't take Zhiming away this time." In fact, Zhiming's level as a secretary is still very high, and I think it's a pity to leave him here. ”

Chen Qingdong knew that what Xu Minglei said was a pretext, what province has regulations, it's not that Xu Minglei doesn't want to take Cai Zhiming away!

It seems that Cai Zhiming made Xu Minglei dissatisfied somewhere, so he fell into an "abandoned" end!

Moreover, Xu Minglei is definitely not as affectionate as he seems!

In the final analysis, it is still the same sentence: in officialdom, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests!

Chen Qingdong answered, and then asked, "Secretary Xu, will Zhiming stay in the county party committee in the future?"

Xu Minglei smiled faintly and said: "He definitely can't continue to stay in the county party committee, after all, he has been my secretary for so long, no matter who is the new secretary of the county party committee, it is impossible to continue to reuse him." Therefore, I am ready to let him go out and become the secretary of the party group and director of the Cultural Affairs Bureau!"

"Director of the Cultural Affairs Bureau?"

Although Chen Qingdong was already mentally prepared, he couldn't help but scream!

Xu Minglei glanced at Chen Qingdong meaningfully, and said playfully: "Qingdong, you must also think that the arrangement I gave Zhiming is a bit too unkind, right?"

Chen Qingdong thought for a while and said, "Secretary Xu, I think that with Zhiming's level and qualifications, he should be able to be qualified for an important position. Of course, Secretary Xu, I know that your arrangement must have been carefully considered, and there are certainly reasons for this arrangement. ”

Xu Minglei said: "Zhiming's thoughts are similar to yours, when I told him that he was going to let him go to the head of the Cultural Bureau, he immediately seemed very emotional, this is a sign of immaturity! Qingdong, I think Zhiming still has a big gap with you in terms of overall situation and vision." So there are some things that I can't tell him through, but I can tell you through them, and you can find an opportunity to talk to him later. ”

"Yes, Secretary Xu. ”

"Well, the real reason why I arranged Zhiming to the Cultural Affairs Bureau is not because I am not satisfied with his ability, but because I feel that his character is a little flawed, mainly because his self-restraint is too poor! I know very well that in the past few years that Zhiming has been my secretary, he has done a lot of private things for himself outside in my name. I can actually understand this, but it also makes me very uneasy about Zhiming. When he was my secretary, he was already so bold, so if he was allowed to be the leader of a large unit, wouldn't he have to do whatever he wanted? In such a long time, it would actually hurt him! Although the Cultural Affairs Bureau is a relatively marginal department, it can be regarded as a medium-sized bureau. Zhiming is the director of the cultural bureau, and it should be a good thing for him to accept more cultural influence. Anyway, he is still young, and if he makes significant progress, there is still hope for further progress in the future. ”

Chen Qingdong secretly thought that Xu Minglei made this arrangement for Cai Zhiming for this reason, it seems that the reason why there is such a result is that Cai Zhiming himself usually does not pay attention to it, which is the biggest reason!

After sighing secretly, Chen Qingdong complimented: "Secretary Xu, you are so thoughtful, I'm afraid that Zhiming won't understand!"

Zhiming really couldn't figure it out, as if I had abandoned him. However, I can't explain more to him, so let's find a chance to talk to Zhiming more in the future. You're your peers, and it's easy to say anything. ”

"Yes, Secretary Xu!"

"Okay, Qingdong, there's nothing else to do, think about it after you go back, and at the same time make plans for your future path. Xu Minglei gave an eviction order.

Chen Qingdong immediately stood up and said, "Yes, Secretary Xu." ”

After leaving the county party committee, Chen Qingdong did not go home or return to his unit, but drove alone to a secluded river in the northern suburbs of the county.

Now that winter has arrived, there is a depression everywhere, the temperature has become very cold, and the river has been covered with a thin layer of ice. In the distance, there is also an old man sitting by the river for winter fishing, looking like he is enjoying himself.

Chen Qingdong stood by the river, lit a cigarette, and began to think about his way out.

He first checked his network, among which the heavyweight contacts include Fu Wenxuan, Deputy Secretary-General of the Provincial Party Committee and Director of the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee, Chu Mingyuan, Executive Deputy Director of the Organization Department of the Longwan Municipal Party Committee, Xu Minglei, who is about to be promoted to deputy mayor of Longwan City, and then his two sworn brothers Xu Bin and Zhao Changbin.

Other than that, there are no other heavyweights.

Of course, Li Xiaolu is also a heavyweight, and her father is the director of the Provincial Personnel Department! However, because Li Xiaolu's relationship with her family is very cold, and Chen Qingdong has never thought of using Li Xiaolu to achieve a certain goal in his career, he will not consider this connection at all.

Among the existing connections, first of all, Xu Minglei can't be counted on for the time being, and the two sworn brothers Xu Bin and Zhao Changbin may be able to give themselves some help in business, but in their careers, the two of them will not play a role.

After excluding them all, only the two big names Fu Wenxuan and Chu Mingyuan remained.

First of all, Fu Wenxuan's level is very high, and he is the secretary of the provincial party committee, which can be called the "second chief" of the entire Huaihai Province, if he is willing to help, as long as he says a word, then it will be easy for him to enter the municipal party committee, or even the provincial party committee!

But the key is that Fu Wenxuan's connections are too big, and his relationship with Fu Wenxuan has not yet reached such a close level, in fact, except for the New Year's holidays, Chen Qingdong has no more contact except for going to Jingjiang and personally going to Fu Wenxuan to give gifts.

Although Chen Qingdong also wanted to have more contact with Fu Wenxuan in normal times, but the difference between the two of them was too much, and Fu Wenxuan was so busy, Chen Qingdong really had no reason to bother him! Moreover, Chen Qingdong thought that Fu Wenxuan still had some appreciation for himself, of course, this was an appreciation of talent, so he must maintain this good impression in Fu Wenxuan's heart! Therefore, if he is too close to Fu Wenxuan, making Fu Wenxuan feel that he is just a person who has sharpened his head and is bent on drilling on the official road, then it is very likely to destroy Fu Wenxuan's impression of himself, but it will be worth the loss!

After some consideration, Chen Qingdong decided that he still couldn't disturb Fu Wenxuan because of the current situation!

Then, after such an exclusion, the only person left is Chu Mingyuan, executive deputy director of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee!
