"I used this time before the meal to gather several of you leaders of Shanyin City and Guishui County, and the purpose is to exchange information." Qi Tianxiang faced Tao Ran, Liu Ruwei and others, and said frankly: "After a day today, I neither listened to the report of the municipal party committee and the municipal government, nor the introduction of the county party committee and the county government, and had only one purpose, that is, I didn't want your report to interfere with my research. ”

Qi Tianxiang adjusted his sitting posture and continued to say slowly: "This time I came to Shanyin for research, not only to revisit the old place, but also to clarify the ideas and direction for the county economic development of Guishui County, this is not only my concern, but also the mission of several of your parents!" Now, please tell us how you felt and thought about the day! Again, there is not much time, just say it concisely. ”

Qi Tianxiang's demeanor looked serious, but it was not a very dignified feeling, it didn't seem to be a very deliberate feeling, it didn't mean anything, but the opening remarks were not friendly, at least it showed distrust and uneasy intentions, which made this demeanor have a different connotation.

"Let me talk about it first!" Tao Ran waited for Qi Tianxiang's words to settle, and then took over with a little seriousness: "Governor Qi and Vice Governor Sun came to Shanyin City to investigate and guide the work, which is a spur and a great promotion for the work of our municipal party committee and municipal government. ”

Tao Ran spoke, hurriedly stretched out his hand and shook it a few times, and said with a slightly self-deprecating smile: "Just now, Governor Qi repeatedly asked for conciseness, and I started to wear boots and hats again, so stop here, and don't take it as an example." ”

Tao Ran smiled wryly, his eyes looked around the people in the small conference room, and he paid special attention to the expressions of Qi Tianxiang and Sun Pingfang. In such a conference room, the only thing he was afraid of was Qi Tianxiang's existence, and others such as Zhou Tong and others, including Sun Pingfang, didn't care very much. After all, no matter how big the vice governor is, he can't help the secretary of the municipal party committee of a prefecture or city, especially in the absence of clear confrontation, the management authority determines that they are not in the same system. As long as it is not an obvious work mistake, or someone has pinched the handle, there is no need to care too much about Sun Pingfang's attitude.

Qi Tianxiang is different, he is not only the governor of the government, but also the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, or a member of the standing committee of the provincial party committee, it can be said that in the decision-making system of the provincial party committee and the provincial government, he has the right to make decisions or speak, and he has also controlled the power department such as the provincial discipline inspection commission for a long time, and his power and energy cannot be underestimated.

Moreover, Qi Tianxiang is also the secretary of the provincial party committee, Lin Dongsheng, who personally inspected, cultivated and selected the successor, and his energy cannot be underestimated. For such a rising political star, if there is no opportunity to cling to and climb, then the best way is to avoid and protect himself, and avoiding his edge may be the only option at present.

Tao Ran knew that he was already a person who had been removed from the circle by Qi Tianxiang, and he had already clearly known this as early as the handling of the river pollution accident in Guishui County. What he did after the accident, whether it was the formulation of the emergency plan or the organization of the aftermath, made Qi Tianxiang feel disappointed. With the help of the armed police and fire brigades, he barely saved some face, and did not expand the situation to the realm of public life, which was also praised by Yao Bingxin, minister of the Ministry of Environmental Protection.

But even so, the slow response of the central area and the lack of emergency measures are still a flaw that is difficult to cover up, and Qi Tianxiang, who is responsible for handling the accident as the provincial government, cannot fail to understand this, and it is impossible not to record this account for him. So far after the accident until today, Qi Tianxiang has no follow-up actions, stability is an important factor, and lack of time and energy is another important reason. There is another factor that cannot be ignored, that is, Qi Tianxiang has no suitable reason to take action, or to implement his ideas.

In the current cadre management system, it is very difficult to carry out the readjustment of the party and government leaders at the prefectural and city levels, except for the normal reshuffle, and the readjustment of the principal leading cadres of the prefectural and municipal levels at other times without special reasons. After all, political stability is still the first factor that needs to be considered, and it is also a matter that the provincial party committee and the provincial government need to be cautious about, the economic and social development of a prefecture and city needs a stable team, and the squad leader is of course an important key, and no matter how good the decisions and policy measures of the provincial party committee and the provincial government are, they still need to be implemented and implemented by the prefecture and city, and this relationship is very clear. As long as there is no huge destructive effect, or major irreconcilable contradictions arise between the teams, under normal circumstances, they will be left to the prefecture and city to resolve them independently.

There is only one exception, and that is when the problem of corruption arises in the top party and government leaders of the prefecture and city, the handling is decisive and swift, and the successor will be in place almost at the same time as the shuanggui decision is issued. This is the case in Huayi City, almost at the same time that the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection announced the shuanggui of Liang Lixin, the former secretary of the municipal party committee, Wang Minglun completed the transition from mayor to acting secretary of the municipal party committee. There are not many such things, and they are also handled in an abnormal state, and they will not be implemented unless they have to.

That is, the turmoil of changing generals in Huayi City, in a certain sense, ensured the stability of Tao Ran's position. This may seem like a coincidence, but it is also inevitable. The last time Tao Ran listened to the report on the situation in Guishui County, he dismissed Han Zizai from his post as secretary of the county party committee in front of Qi Tianxiang, which virtually preserved his position and blocked Qi Tianxiang's idea of taking organizational measures. After all, dealing with accidents and holding leaders accountable are mutually reinforcing issues, and the city party committee cannot be exempted from the county party committee, and the provincial party committee cannot be exempted from the city party committee, which is not in line with the organizational principle, but will also become a laughing stock in officialdom.

But even if Qi Tianxiang did not have the conditions and time to shake Tao Ran's position, as Tao Ran, he was still very aware of the subtleties, and he could basically judge the result of the possible outcome in the future. Being listed as an alternative by Qi Tianxiang, even if he will not lose his power and position in the short term, it is even more difficult to make a difference, unless he can help from other aspects, it is difficult to break through the current predicament.

For possible opportunities, Qi Tianxiang didn't seem to be very deliberate to block them, but he was not willing to give them to him easily. When the vice premier inspected the old area, although he knew that this was a farewell trip for him to retire from his current post, for Hohai Province and Qi Tianxiang, he recognized the role it could play in poverty alleviation and development, and devoted himself to it.

The old area of Huayi covers Huayi City, Laizhou City and Shanyin City, but the vice premier's itinerary is limited to Huayi City. Although the top party and government leaders of Laizhou City and Shanyin City were also recruited to Huayi City, their role was only to accompany and accompany them, but they only appeared to be a little more imposing, and there was no meaning at all, and there was no opportunity or possibility to get in close contact with the vice premier.

Although Laizhou City also acted as a companion this time, the next step of the province's on-site administrative meeting according to law is still an opportunity for Xiao Chaogui to turn around, and as the secretary of Shanyin City and the Municipal Party Committee, Tao Ran does not have any such opportunity, even if Qi Tianxiang comes to Shanyin City at this moment, it is just a revisit to the hometown of Guishui County alone, not only does not mean to take Shanyin City as the leading, but even a day of inspection and research, actually did not give them a chance to get close, Tao Ran couldn't help but feel short of breath.

"Although Governor Qi is in charge of the overall situation of the province's economic and social development, he has not neglected the underdeveloped areas like Shanyin City, especially for the ecological protection and natural resource development of Guishui County. In contrast, we, the comrades who have been working at the grassroots level for a long time, have a big gap in both thinking and vision, and facing the future blueprint drawn up by the governor of Qi Province for us not only makes us feel ashamed. Tao Ran tried his best to gather his chaotic thoughts, looked at Qi Tianxiang with a sincere expression and said: "I personally believe that this gap is not only the difference in position and ability, but also the work idea and the mental state of serving the people to a greater extent, as well as the understanding of the responsibilities paid. As the secretary of the San'in Municipal Party Committee, I am willing to assume leadership responsibilities and be responsible for the backward economic situation of San'in. ”

Tao Ran looked at Qi Tianxiang sincerely, expressing his heart, then turned his gaze to everyone, and continued solemnly: "In the face of the dilemma of economic development in mountainous areas, especially the lack of funds and projects, as well as the constraints of transportation conditions, most grassroots cadres, including me, have a certain sense of embarrassment, and the idea of waiting for practical work and difficulties faced is quite serious. On the one hand, this is manifested in a weak sense of purpose, and on the other hand, it is also a slippery slope in mental state, which cannot be forgiven. ”

"I won't go into too much detail about the existing problems and the problems in terms of ideological state here, and I am waiting for the accountability and handling of the provincial party committee and the provincial government." Tao Ran said as he retreated, his eyes looking at everyone became serious, even a little gloomy, and he said in a cold tone: "But before the handling opinions come, I still want to show my attitude." Governor Qi has made an accurate pulse for the economic development of our city, and it should be the unshirkable work of our municipal party committee and municipal government to plan the layout according to the overall construction plan. For the advancement of the overall work, we must show a hundred times more confidence, grasp the implementation with a serious and diligent work attitude, so as to promote the performance appraisal and the change of cadres' performance and work style, and with a strong attitude of multi-departmental linkage, to build a good image, seek development, comfort the people's heart, and meet the judgment of the people with practical actions and work performance. ”
