Comrade Tianxiang introduced the institutional reform plan and gave a detailed explanation, so that all of us have a clear understanding of the institutional reform work and a clear judgment on the importance. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" according to the order of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, after Lin Dongsheng finished speaking, it was naturally time for Hou Zhehai to speak, he looked at Qi Tianxiang with a friendly expression, and then looked at Lin Dongsheng with a side face, and then looked around at everyone: "In particular, Comrade Dongsheng's clear statement has provided us with a clear direction, so that each of us is clear about what specific work we should do in the institutional reform work that will start this time." ”

Hou Zhehai's words were neither yin nor yang, which immediately caused a burst of whispers in the conference room. Not only the meaning of the words, but also the way he consciously mentioned Qi Tianxiang's speech first, and then said Lin Dongsheng's instructions, so that people could clearly perceive his obvious intentions. To say that this order of expression is also normal, after all, Qi Tianxiang spoke first, and it is beyond reproach to mention Qi Tianxiang first and then Lin Dongsheng, but in the officialdom with strict power hierarchy, especially on such occasions, such an expression reveals subtle changes, and the intention is still obvious, and it is also intriguing.

"Comrade Dongsheng just mentioned that as early as the early days of revolution and construction, the leading collectives of the older generation had made important expositions on streamlining the administration of the army with a crack army, and this is an important wealth in the treasure house of our party's theory, which is worthy of serious study and understanding by every leading cadre of ours." Hou Zhehai didn't care about the whispers in the conference room, but said to himself: "The chief architect of reform and opening up has repeatedly mentioned the bloated and loose mechanism and system, and the serious obstacles to the cause of reform and opening up. Bloated institutions and superfluous personnel not only seriously consume social wealth, but also seriously restrict the implementation of policies, and cannot but arouse the great attention of our governments at all levels. ”

Hou Zhehai opened the conversation box and was about to talk at length, but looking at the cold and silent atmosphere in the conference room and the expressions of everyone, he felt that such an occasion was not suitable for saying too much, so he adjusted his emotions and said slowly: "Comrade Dongsheng was very frank about his worries just now, and I also deeply sympathize with these. After listening to Comrade Tianxiang's introduction, especially after reading the institutional reform plan, I have some faint worries and puzzles, the new provincial government has just been formed, and the opportunity to be rejuvenated is to unite people's hearts, inspire morale, work together to do a good job in the province's economic work, realize the provincial party committee plenary meeting to make the economy bigger and stronger, so that the development results can better benefit the people of the province at the critical moment, the launch of such a large-scale institutional reform program, is it a little out of place, or is there any intention in it, I have doubts. ”

Hou Zhehai's words immediately caused another whisper, not only in his overly old-fashioned and serious expression, but also in his way of addressing him. Although calling comrades within the party is an organizational requirement and a manifestation of democratic centralism, it is clear that this is only a skill of balancing relations, and in the real sense of being able to call each other comrades, that is, comrades of equal rank, or the expression of tacit understanding between team members. For a secretary who has a clear authority over others, the most appropriate title is to refer to him by his position, and calling him by name not only is suspected of contempt for power, but also arouses the disgust or dissatisfaction of other members of the team.

The title of "Comrade Dongsheng", unless it is an old comrade with a higher position than Lin Dongsheng, or an old comrade with stronger qualifications than Lin Dongsheng, it is not very appropriate for anyone to call him, Hou Zhehai seems to have done it on purpose, not only calling Lin Dongsheng and Qi Tianxiang by their names, but also omitting their surnames, which seems to be close to equality, but in fact it is obviously frivolous and offensive. Not to mention the difference between positions, just from age and seniority, Hou Zhehai's move is a bit exaggerated, which is impossible for him not to understand such rules for him who has served in a hierarchical central organ all the year round. The only reason is that it is deliberate.

This seemingly abnormal behavior actually shows the trajectory of his thoughts, and it comes with an obvious purpose. Hou Zhehai only rushed back from Beijing yesterday, and this is also his usual practice in recent times, either directly from Beijing to the provincial capital, or directly to the research site, often coming and going in a hurry, looking very busy.

Since several clear confrontations with Lin Dongsheng, which were easily resolved and defeated by the scheming Lin Dongsheng, Hou Zhehai, who came complacently, suddenly felt frustrated, and the high-level reliance on Lin Dongsheng did not waver, especially the cautiousness of the personnel changes of the Hehai Provincial Party Committee, which made Hou Zhehai's hope of replacing him in the short term significantly reduced.

Not only that, but I don't know who made his performance in Hohai Province, especially the investigation work arranged by the provincial party committee, go against the yin and yin, not only did not actively implement the decision of the provincial party committee, but instead complained in a strange way, and after showing up at the research point in a hurry, he hid in Beijing under the pretext that there was something to deal with in Beijing, which caused a bad reaction from the grassroots level.

After this information was reflected at the top, there were a series of chain reactions, the most obvious result was that he lacked a pragmatic work spirit, which also affected his competitive strength, making his hope more and more diminishing.

In addition to the news that the high-level leaders interviewed Hou Zhehai was transmitted back to Hehai, all kinds of rumors circulated widely for a while, and directly pointed to Hou Zhehai's actions and career prospects, and even spread the gossip that he might be transferred back to Beijing, and what he said was even more nose and eyes, which almost became the mainstream view.

Hou Zhehai can guess the source of the news, but he can't block the spread of the news, and for the transmission channels of these officialdom news, especially the circle ecology from the grassroots, and the destructive power of the gossip is obviously underestimated, there is no defense at all, and there is no countermeasure for a while, so he can only let these news spread and spread, and the only thing he can do is to hide in the capital and try his best to alienate the officialdom of Hehai.

Hou Zhehai didn't expect that he would be defeated in this way, but he was helpless. Although the facts are not as the gossip spreads, the high-level officials have severely criticized him and are ready to transfer him out of Hohai Province, but to learn about his work in Hohai Province, and hope that he can better cooperate closely with Lin Dongsheng and the members of the team to jointly do a good job in the party affairs of Hohai Province, better lead the economic and social development of the province, and play the role he should play.

There have been such conversations in the past, but they are not as distorted as this time, which shows that Hehai currently has a strong resistance, which is clearly aimed at his presence and expansion of power in Hehai. This also made him have a clear judgment of his previous optimism, and also knew that he did not belong here at all, even if he was strong and had absolute power, it was impossible for him to resist the encirclement of local forces from Hehai, let alone change the inherent cultural form and power structure.

After having such a clear understanding, Hou Zhehai felt relieved. The state of affairs will not be as the news spreads, and the changes in high-level personnel will not be as random as a child's house, let alone change overnight. Even if you can't change the decision of the top level, you still have to wait patiently for the decision to come, and it will take time, and it will not be decided until next year's provincial party congress at the earliest.

Moreover, the top priority now is to retreat for oneself, that is, where to go after leaving the river and sea. These retreats, which had no time and possibility, had no time to consider before, but now they cannot but be seriously planned and calculated. During this period, Hou Zhehai was operating these things in Beijing, although there was no clear result, but it also took a lot of twists and turns, and he felt a little haggard.

Therefore, Hou Zhehai is very resistant to the Provisional Standing Committee notified by the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee by phone and the institutional reform plan sent by the Beijing Office, but he has no reason to shirk it, and he is unwilling to shirk it, after all, this is a platform for him to exercise power as a member of the Standing Committee and deputy secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, and it is also a way for him to show his existence.

rushed back in a hurry, and also participated in the meeting in a hurry, but his inner preparation was perfect enough, and he also understood that the attitude he should hold was to provoke Lin Dongsheng, so as to find Lin Dongsheng's mistakes and try to save possible opportunities.

Hou Zhehai only needs to target Lin Dongsheng himself, and he doesn't want to involve anyone, including Qi Tianxiang, let alone make an enemy of Qi Tianxiang. He still admires Qi Tianxiang very much, and also admires his profound knowledge, persistent beliefs, and pragmatic work achievements, and is willing to assist him in doing something, not only because of their former party school colleagues and classmates, but also because they have the same feelings and hopes.

"This is not to embarrass Comrade Tianxiang, the necessity of institutional reform is obvious, and the importance of streamlining the administration of the army is also unquestionable, but as the provincial government that leads a province with a population of nearly 100 million, it still needs to be considered more perfectly." Hou Zhehai looked at Qi Tianxiang and said kindly: "It's not that I personally have such thoughts, nor is it a matter of narrow subjective thinking, but from the perspective of the shock that the reform may bring. After all, if institutional reform has to affect the vital interests of tens of thousands of people, their jobs, and incomes, especially after the loss of government posts, the psychological imbalance and disparity will have no negative impact and side effects, and there are still countless families behind these tens of thousands of people, and tens of thousands of people will be affected, and once problems and contradictions erupt, what kind of destructive force will they have on society, we cannot but consider this. This is also the tremendous turbulence and destructive force of the reform of state-owned enterprises that you just mentioned, and this kind of pain cannot be repeated in government organs, and society does not agree to it, and we cannot accept it in our current era. ”
