Chapter 001: Xiao Chen takes up his new position

Journalists have been isolated from the hall, which is the first plenary session of the 16th Central Committee of the Chinese People's Republic of China.

In accordance with the provisions of the Chinese Constitution, the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and the General Secretary of the Central Committee are elected by the plenary session of the Central Committee. The General Secretary of the Central Committee must be elected from among the members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee.

The Politburo and its Standing Committee exercise the functions and powers of the Central Committee when the plenary sessions of the Central Committee are not in session.

The Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee is the administrative body of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and its Standing Committee; Members are nominated by the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and approved by the plenary session of the Central Committee.

The First Plenary Session of the 16th Central Committee of the Chinese People's Republic of China, which is usually called the "First Plenary Session of the 16th Central Committee". The party's national congress elected only a Central Committee of about 200 members and an alternate committee of 1 or 200 members. The National Congress of the Party does not elect the Politburo and the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee, as well as the General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee and other central leadership positions. Therefore, immediately after the conclusion of the Party National Congress, the new Central Committee, which was newly elected at the National Congress, convened its first plenary session. At the plenary session convened by the Central Committee, members of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, General Secretary of the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee, General Secretary of the Central Committee, and Chairman of the Central Military Commission of the Communist Party of China were elected.

As an alternate member of the Central Committee, Xiao Chen naturally attended the meeting in accordance with the provisions of the Party Constitution.

The First Plenum of the Central Committee of the Party has elected members of the Central Leadership Group. The Second Plenary Session of the CPC Central Committee coincided with the re-election of the National People's Congress and the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (e.g., the first session of the Ninth National People's Congress in '98, the first session of the 10th National People's Congress in 2oo3, and the first session of the 11th National People's Congress in 2oo8). The re-election of the National People's Congress and the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) will elect new leaders of state institutions (i.e., the president, the chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, etc.). Therefore, the main task of the Second Plenum of the Party Central Committee was to discuss the list of leaders of state institutions. The Third Plenary Session of the CPC Central Committee has produced resolutions on a number of major issues concerning national development and economic construction.

The First Plenary Session of the 16th Central Committee of the People's Republic of China was held in Beijing on November 15, 2002.

Present at the meeting were 198 members of the Central Committee and 158 alternate members of the Central Committee. Members of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection attended the meeting as observers.

Comrade Gu Banglan presided over the meeting and made an important speech.

The plenary session elected members and alternate members of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, members of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, and General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee; On the basis of nominations by the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, the members of the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee were approved; decided on the members of the Central Military Commission group chéng; The candidates for secretary, deputy secretary, and members of the Standing Committee elected at the first plenary session of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection were approved.

There are 24 members of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and 1 alternate member elected this time. Not surprisingly, three relatives of Xiao Chen were elected members of the Politburo, namely the eldest uncle Xiao Zheng, the second uncle Yu Zhengsheng, and the father-in-law Ye Songbai, in addition, the father-in-law Wang Sheng of the eldest cousin Zhang Yicheng was also elected as a member of the Politburo, and officially became the head of the Central Propaganda Department, and then became the secretary of the Secretariat of the Central Committee. And his father-in-law, Ye Songbai, was unexpectedly elected vice chairman of the Central Military Commission, ranking behind Jiang Enguo and Gu Banglan.

In the next election, Xiao Zheng was elected as a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, ranking sixth among the nine Standing Committee members, and his position can basically be said to have been decided.

In addition, Yue Dingyuan, secretary of the Lingnan Provincial Party Committee, and Secretary of the Jiangdong Provincial Party Committee were elected members of the Politburo at the same time. Li Yunxin's father, Li Mingzhao, former deputy secretary of Dongfang City and secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, was elected deputy secretary of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.

……

This year, there is basically no feeling of the New Year, and Xiao Chen has been "running in three places" - Wucheng, Jinning, and Beijing. The 10th National People's Congress is about to be held, and all the mysteries of the general election will be revealed, even if Xiao Chen has already gotten the general news, he can't sit in Wucheng and wait for the meeting like a rock. Officialdom is a very magical place, even if Xiao Chen never feels that he is an official, but when the change of office comes, and he knows that his position will move, he has to deal with some people who he is familiar with or will be familiar with in accordance with various unwritten rules in the system. I won't talk about some old comrades within the Xiao department, that is sure to be met and talked about by everyone, and there are some middle and high-level cadres who have performed well in recent years and are expected to be quite promising in the future, Xiao Chen also has to meet and talk with them one by one. In addition, there are some old comrades and senior leaders who are more friendly with the top level of the Xiao family, and grandpa or uncle will also lead him to exchange views with him...... All in all, this year has been busier than the previous years, Xiao Chen finally understood that there was a saying in the past that "the memory of excellent politicians is surprisingly good" This is indeed true, just the 350 or so people of the Central Committee and the alternate Central Committee, Xiao Chen not only has to know each of them, but also remembers their resumes, specialties and even family members, hobbies, etc. In addition, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection is the "old territory" of the Xiao family, and there are more than 120 members of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, Xiao Chen also has to know most of them, and then there are those old comrades...... The amount of information can be imagined.

According to the decision of the conference, Gu Banglan signed the No. 1 presidential decree appointing Wen Chengxi as the premier of the State Council of the People's Republic of China.

In the list of the composition of various parts of the State Council submitted by Premier Wen Chengxi, Liu Kai, the former deputy secretary general of the Government Council, was elected as the director of the newly renamed National Development and Reform Commission of the People's Republic of China.

After the meeting, Xiao Chen immediately rushed back to Wucheng and convened a meeting of the Standing Committee, which passed the resolution of appointing Shen Cheng as the executive deputy director and deputy secretary of the party group of the Wucheng New District Management Committee. The Organization Department of the Wucheng Municipal Party Committee proposed the appointment of Zhong Yu as deputy secretary general of the Wucheng Municipal Party Committee and deputy director of the Municipal Party Committee Office, which was approved by the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee.

The day after the meeting, Hua Dongying, deputy director of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee and executive deputy director of the Personnel Department of the Government Council, and Yang Yaomin, member of the Standing Committee of the Jiangdong Provincial Party Committee and director of the Organization Department, attended the Wucheng City Cadres Conference.

Comrade Xiao Chen served as deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission and a member of the party group, ranking after Comrade Liu Hong, and no longer served as a member of the Standing Committee and member of the Jiangdong Provincial Party Committee, and a member of the Wucheng Municipal Party Committee.

Yang Yaomin announced the decision of the Jiangdong Provincial Party Committee:

Chen Wei bō served as a member, standing committee member and secretary of the Wucheng City Party Committee.

Subsequently, Yue Bang, deputy secretary of the Wucheng Municipal Party Committee, sent off Comrade Xiao Chen on behalf of all the cadres of Wucheng City and delivered a speech, speaking highly of Comrade Xiao Chen's great contributions to the construction of Wucheng in all aspects during his tenure as secretary of the Wucheng Municipal Party Committee. Chen Wei, secretary of the Wucheng Municipal Party Committee, said that he will continue to implement the consistent policy of the Wucheng Municipal Party Committee, build Wucheng under the rule of law, safe Wucheng, cultural Wucheng, tourism Wucheng, and green Wucheng, and build a sunny, honest and efficient political institution, so that the party can rest assured and the people are satisfied.

At this point, Xiao Chen's work transfer has been completed. Chen Wei bō is the vice governor of Jiangdong Province, a member of the provincial party committee, and now serves as the secretary of the Wucheng Municipal Party Committee, thinking that he should be added to the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee in the near future, he is also a cadre of the Xiao department, and You Jing is optimistic and gradually promoted, he is only 46 years old this year, it is the year of the fight, and he is in charge of business and trade work when the provincial government fǔ, and he takes over as the secretary of the Wucheng City Party Committee, which was discussed with Xiao Chen before Wang Kun and You Jing were transferred, and Xiao Chen is naturally relieved.

When the meeting was about to end, there were some faint shouts outside the large conference room, from Hua Dongying, Xiao Chen, Yang Yaomin to Chen Wei, Wang Wenyuan, etc., all frowning slightly, Wang Wenyuan glanced at Secretary General Zhang Yao, Zhang Yao immediately understood, and hurriedly opened the door to go out to take a look.

But after hearing this, Zhang Yao didn't dare to make a decision, but hurriedly came in from outside the conference room, although he seemed a little embarrassed, but in front of more than 200 cadres attending the meeting, he said to Xiao Chen, who was sitting on the rostrum: "Xiao Shu...... Uh, Director Xiao, thousands of people gathered outside, blocking the gate and back door of the municipal party committee, to keep you on behalf of the five million people of Wucheng. ”

Xiao Chen was stunned. The leaders on the stage and the cadres on the stage also took a look, what age is it, and there is still this kind of thing? Hua Dongying reacted quickly, turned his head to look at Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen also came back to his senses at this time, immediately stood up, and said to Hua Dongying: "I'll go out and have a look." Hua Dongying nodded, Xiao Chen walked towards the door, took two steps, suddenly stopped, turned around and said, "Comrade Wei bō, Wen Yuan, please come with me too." ”

Chen Wei and Wang Wenyuan glanced at each other, and both looked towards Hua Dongying, Hua Dongying laughed and nodded, "Go ahead." ”

Xiao Chen, Chen Wei bō, and Wang Wenyuan walked to the corridor and looked out, and sure enough, they saw that the entrance of the municipal party committee was full of people, and many people were chanting slogans. "Don't go, secretary! And so on, and some people put up banners, but they were a little far away and couldn't see clearly.

The guards at the gate of the municipal party committee were like a great enemy, and they did not dare to get out of the way at the gate, and a group of cadres behind the guards were in a hurry, and several cadres from the municipal party committee office were shouting there, and there were many people, and they could not hear what they were shouting.

Xiao Chen didn't dare to delay, seeing that several staff members had already hurried over, he didn't have time to greet him as usual, he just nodded and said, "Let's go!" Go down and take a look. ”

Walking downstairs, getting closer and closer to the gate, the voices of the people outside were heard very clearly, and sure enough, they were all here to keep Xiao Chen in Wucheng, but although the crowd was crowded, they didn't mean to rush into the compound of the municipal party committee, they just put up banners and shouted outside, and there were still some elderly people at the door, who were already crying.

At this time, not only Xiao Chen, but even Chen Wei bō and Wang Wenyuan were also shocked, once upon a time, Xiao Chen, who had only been in Wucheng for more than two years, actually had such a huge prestige among the citizens of Wucheng, and won the hearts of the people!

When Xiao Chen came to the door, the crowd outside suddenly became more moved, and the shouting voice was also louder, and the voice of "Secretary Xiao don't go" was higher than one làng.

How could Xiao Chen have ever seen this scene?

I think that when he came to Wucheng to serve as the secretary of the municipal party committee, how many people in Wucheng doubted that this frighteningly young secretary was just here to gild, thinking that the Jiangdong Provincial Party Committee made him the secretary of the Wucheng Municipal Party Committee not joking with the millions of people in Wucheng, even if some people pointed out Xiao Chen's political achievements in Langliu, it was only considered that it was an official gimmick.

However, it didn't take long for everyone to be surprised to find that Wu Cheng had changed. As soon as Xiao Chen arrived, there was a clean government system, a super-large-scale investment of 6 billion US dollars from Xinlan Technology, the fall of Executive Vice Mayor Wang He, the release of a new urban plan for Wucheng with two wings, the resurgence of Wucheng Football City, the death penalty of Qin Shou, the director of the Public Security Bureau, the implementation of the new petition system, and the launch of the "Sunshine Government" plan......

In two years, in just two years, Wucheng has changed from a single economic power city to today's Wucheng under the rule of law, peace Wucheng, education Wucheng, football Wucheng, cultural Wucheng, and green sè Wucheng...... A large number of halos converged on Wu Cheng's head, and the person who brought these halos was this unbelievably young secretary of the Wucheng City Party Committee: Xiao Chen!

The Chinese people are the easiest to satisfy, who is sincerely good to them, to whom they will love themselves!

Xiao Chen patted the guards blocking the chéng wall in front of him and motioned for them to get out of the way, the guards hesitated, and with respect, separated to the two sides and made way in the middle.

Enthusiastic shouts erupted among the crowd, and Xiao Chen walked out with heavy steps, stretched out his hands and pressed down slightly. The audience fell silent.

Xiao Chen looked at the simple face in front of him, pursed his mouth tightly, a layer of mist rose in his eyes, and said loudly but a little choked: "Thank you, thank you!" ”

The crowd erupted in loud applause, but no one shouted to interrupt Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen raised his head as much as he could, not letting the tears fall, and after a few seconds, he took a deep breath and said loudly: "Fathers and villagers of Wucheng! I feel your friendship for me, and I also love Wu Cheng with the same affection, love you, and love Wu Cheng's five million fathers! ”

He stretched out his hand to make everyone stop applauding, and said loudly: "Although I have not been working in Wucheng for a long time, I have been deeply impressed by the beauty and richness of Wucheng and the industriousness and wisdom of the people of Wucheng. Although my ability and experience are limited, I can ask myself questions and be worthy of my admiration - I have done my best to contribute everything I can to Wu Cheng! ”

Many of the people in front of them were already crying.

Xiao Chen also said emotionally: "I am a ** member, an ordinary party member of the first class in China, for work, I must obey the arrangement of the organization, where I am needed, I will go." Although I am leaving today, my heart will always be associated with Wucheng and the people of Wucheng! No matter where I am in the future, what work I do, I will continue to care and watch Wu Cheng, if there is anything that Wu Cheng needs me, I will contribute all my efforts as I have done in the past two years! ”

There was already a cry at the scene, and although the voice of "Secretary Xiao don't go" was much quieter, some people still insisted on shouting in a crying voice.

Xiao Chen turned sideways slightly, pulled Chen Wei bō and Wang Wenyuan from left to right, and said, "This is Vice Governor Chen Wei, and from today onwards, he is also the secretary of the Wucheng Municipal Party Committee...... Comrade Wei Bō is a comrade I am more familiar with, with a firm stance and outstanding ability, and Mayor Wang Wenyuan, I believe everyone knows, he has been working in Wucheng for several years, from the deputy secretary of the Wuzhong District Party Committee to today's mayor, he has come step by step, and his ability should be clear to everyone. I believe that under the leadership of Comrade Wei Bō and Comrade Wen Yuan, the new leadership group of Wucheng is a more determined and powerful team, and it is a team that can continue to lead everyone to new victories and new glories! …… Here, I implore everyone to transfer their trust in me to our new Wucheng team, encourage them, support them, and I believe that they will do better than me! ”

……

Xiao Chen and Hua Dongying's convoy finally left. When the convoy drove out of the gate of the municipal party committee, there were more people outside than just now, but they were in an orderly manner, no chanting, everyone just silently raised the banner, silently looked at the black Audi car, silently stretched out their hand, and said goodbye to their beloved Secretary Xiao in the Audi car.

Xiao Chen sat in the car and didn't open the window again, just closed his eyes. Hua Dongying, who was beside him, gently patted him on the shoulder and whispered: "Those who serve the people, the people will not forget." Xiao Chen, the people of Wucheng are happy, and you are also happy. ”

Xiao Chen nodded silently.

Hundreds of taxis and family cars gathered on Sanxiang Road, but there was a road for Xiao Chen's convoy to pass through. The convoy walked by, and the taxis and sī cars behind them also converged into a car dragon, followed the convoy forward, and sent it to Liangxi Shuofang Airport, which was dozens of kilometers away, looked at Xiao Chen, said his final goodbye to him, and watched the eternal secretary of the municipal party committee in the hearts of the people of Wucheng get on the plane and disappear from view, before gradually dispersing......

The National Development and Reform Commission is located in Xicheng District, west of Zhongnanhai, not very far from Zhongnanhai. It is a magnificent dark brown strip building. Although the building is not huge, it is solemn and solemn, demonstrating the depth of the NDRC's court and the weight of its power.

The NDRC's nickname speaks to the sheer power of the NDRC – it is known as the "Little Government Yuan." In addition to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of National Defense, the NDRC has overlapping powers over almost all other government affairs of the Government Council.

When Xiao Chen inspected his "territory", he saw with his own eyes the mayor of a well-known economically strong city in the south with a smile on his face in front of a division-level researcher from the Planning Department of the Regional Division.

Xiao Chen ranks fourth among the deputy directors of the National Development and Reform Commission, although he is still at the vice ministerial level. However, the National Development and Reform Commission is the No. 1 business ministry in the national ministry, and the treatment is naturally different from that in Wucheng. For example, medical care, car distribution, security and so on are all available. Lin Lei was brought to the capital and continued to serve as Xiao Chen's full-time driver. The Central Guard Bureau equipped him with a relatively young guard named Zhang Yi.

Xiao Chen is responsible for the work of the National Development and Reform Commission in basic industries, employment and income distribution, regional economy and the state to promote the rise of the central region, the development of the western region, and the revitalization of the old industrial bases in the northeast region, and assists Comrade Liu Kai in the work of development planning. He is in charge of the Department of Regional Economy, the Department of Western Development, the Department of Northeast Revitalization, the Department of Basic Industries, and the Department of Employment and Income Distribution, and assists Comrade Liu Kai in taking charge of the Department of Development and Planning. Contact the Center for Reform and Development of Cities and Small Towns, and the China Transportation Association.

The Development Planning Department of the NDRC is one of the most important departments in the NDRC. The director is usually in direct charge of the political research office. There are eight main tasks: first, to study and propose the work plan for the preparation of the medium- and long-term plan for national economic and social development (referred to as the medium- and long-term plan, the same below), and to be responsible for the preliminary work of the preparation of the medium- and long-term plan; It studies and analyzes major issues in economic and social development, predicts development trends, calculates planning indicators, and puts forward basic ideas for national economic and social development. Second, it is specifically responsible for drafting the draft medium- and long-term plan, proposing the development strategy, as well as the medium- and long-term goals and policies for total balance and structural adjustment, and planning the distribution of productive forces. 3. Guide the preparation of medium and long-term plans by departments and localities, organize and coordinate the preparation of special plans and regional plans, and study and put forward the necessity, depth of content, preparation methods, democratic participation, subjects and methods of argumentation, and requirements for submission for review. Fourth, it is responsible for the preparation of cross-industry and comprehensive special plans, and is responsible for the connection between other special plans, regional plans, provincial medium and long-term plans, etc., and the national medium and long-term plans, and the connection between special plans. 5. Responsible for the mid-term evaluation of medium- and long-term planning, and organize and coordinate the mid-term evaluation of various plans. 6. Study and formulate plans and major policy measures to promote urbanization development; Responsible for reviewing urban system planning and other urbanization plans and policies, and coordinating relevant projects and funding arrangements for urbanization development; Participate in the review of the city's master plan. 7. Participate in the preliminary work of major projects and participate in the arrangement of major projects. 8. Responsible for standardizing the planning and preparation procedures; Responsible for the day-to-day work of the Planning Advisory Review Committee; Research on the methods and systems of planning and planning, and on the mechanisms for the implementation and evaluation of plans.

Its division-level institutions include the General Office, the Economic Structure Office, the Special Planning Office, the Local Planning Office, the Planning Evaluation Office, and the Urbanization Planning Office. It can be said that the Department of Development Planning is an important participant in the formulation of national economic policies by the Government Council, and is also the core department of the National Development and Reform Commission.

Liu Kai arranged for Xiao Chen to assist him in taking charge of the Development Planning Department, which shows that he still recognizes Xiao Chen's ability.

has just entered the National Development and Reform Commission, and the first thing Xiao Chen has to do is naturally to familiarize himself with the work at hand. Zhou Lin, the secretary assigned to Xiao Chen by the general office, was thirty-two years old. Coming from a rural area in the southwest, he graduated from the Southwest University of Political Science and Law in 90. There is no basis to speak of, a canonical representative of civilian officials. After graduating from university, he was admitted to an office of the National Development and Reform Commission in southwest China. Two years later, he was transferred to the Personnel Department of the National Development and Reform Commission, and last year he began to serve as a full-time secretary at the deputy division level of the General Office of the National Development and Reform Commission. After being transferred to serve as Xiao Chen's full-time secretary, he will be quickly promoted to the director level according to the usual practice.

Xiao Chen chose him firstly because he felt that this person was very capable from reading his information, and secondly, because of Zhou Lin's age advantage. Xiao Chen is not very old, and he doesn't like to use a secretary who is much older than him.

After a few days of contact, Xiao Chen felt that Zhou Lin was still okay. It's just that because of his poor background and being in the deep pool of the National Development and Reform Commission, he is becoming more cautious. Zhou Lin is extremely cautious about Xiao Chen, the third generation with a strong background, but these are all minor problems, and Xiao Chen believes that it will gradually adjust over time.

In the past few days, Xiao Chen has also carefully observed the heads of several departments in charge of him, unlike before, when Xiao Chen has not yet arrived at the National Development and Reform Commission, the committee has already been rumored. Xiao Chen's identity is no longer a secret. For Xiao Chen, who served as a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Wucheng Municipal Party Committee in Jiangdong Province, it is no longer comparable to the weight of the small secretary of the Second Bureau of the Government Council when he went to Langliu. It can be seen from the caution of the directors of the various departments in charge of Xiao Chen when they report on their work, that they still adopt a closer posture towards this rising political star.

It should be said that although Xiao Chen's status in the NDRC is not high, only ranked fourth, in fact, the project he is in charge of is only slightly smaller than that of Executive Deputy Director Zhou Shuzhong, and even higher than Deputy Director Wang Renan and Deputy Director Liu Hong, who ranked second.

With great power comes great responsibility.
