In mid-March 2003, the session of the Guangdong Provincial People's Congress was closed.

At the end of March, half a month after the conclusion of the NPC session, a round of personnel changes was carried out in Haizhou's municipal circles. Chen Tiangui, former secretary of the municipal party committee, was transferred to the province to serve as vice chairman of the CPPCC in eastern Guangdong, and former mayor Miao Xiao replaced Chen Tiangui as secretary of the Haizhou municipal party committee.

The most eye-catching thing in this personnel rotation is that Zhao Changfeng, 29-year-old former secretary of the Yuehai County Party Committee, was appointed as a member of the Standing Committee of the Haizhou Municipal Party Committee and executive vice mayor. (Note: Regarding Zhao Changfeng's age, due to Lao Xia's negligence, there are several different statements in the book, and some netizens have questions.) Here Lao Xia officially corrected: Zhao Changfeng's date of birth is May 27, 1973. Only this date commemorates one of Lao Xia's friends. ）

When leaving Yuehai County, Zhao Changfeng made arrangements for his loyal old subordinates, which is normal in officialdom, and if Zhao Changfeng does not do this, it is a bit deliberately pretentious. What is the purpose of the old subordinates loyally following you before and after, isn't it just to have a good future? Whether it is a good leader or a bad leader, they like to give priority to promoting the people around them. Some people may not understand that it is understandable that bad leaders like to promote the people around them, why do good leaders also like to promote the people around them? In fact, the answer is very simple, bad leaders like to promote the people around them because the people around them are obedient and will help the leader do some things that are inconvenient for the leader to do; Good leaders like to promote the people around them because they understand the abilities and conduct of these people around them, so they are at ease to use. If you use other people, after all, you don't know as well as the people around you, in case other people are not capable, or politically unreliable, and after being promoted to an important position, you will be stabbed in the basket, and in the end, it will not be the leader who comes out to clean up the mess?

Therefore, no matter whether it is a good leader or a bad leader, whether it is in public or private intentions, when recommending the use of cadres, they will take the lead in considering screening from the people around them. When leaving a leadership position, it is the practice of leaders to arrange the people around them. Therefore, there will be a strange scenery in the officialdom, and everyone will squeeze their heads to lean towards the leader, striving to become a member of the small circle around the leader, if nothing else, just to be one step ahead of others in the cruel officialdom competition in the future.

Leaving Yuehai County this time, Zhao Changfeng only needs to arrange three old subordinates, that is, Mo Rigen, director of the county party committee office, Bao Xiaofei, deputy director of the county party committee office and full-time secretary, and Fang Zhonghai, the driver.

The director of the county party committee office is a member of the standing committee of the county party committee and belongs to the municipal management cadres, and if you want to adjust your post, you need the nod of the municipal party committee, and besides, Mo Rigen has only been the director of the county party committee office for just one year, and it is not the right time yet, so he will not move for the time being. Fortunately, Mo Rigen is already very satisfied, he can be transferred from the director of the government office to the director of the county party committee office, and enter the sequence of the standing committee of the county party committee.

The driver Fang Zhonghai, because he is a special soldier turned into a job, is very good at kung fu, and Liu Dajiang, director of the Public Security Bureau, has always liked Fang Zhonghai very much, and this time he justifiably asked Fang Zhonghai to serve as the deputy captain of the criminal police team of the county public security bureau.

As for Bao Xiaofei, Zhao Changfeng originally wanted to arrange to go to the following township or county unit to exercise, but Bao Xiaofei disagreed, he pestered Zhao Changfeng softly, saying that he had only followed the boss for a year and a half, and there were still many things that he had not learned, and he did not have the ability to take charge of himself, and now going out would only embarrass the boss, so if he can, ask the boss to give him a chance, take him to Haizhou, and let him continue to study with the boss.

Zhao Changfeng liked Bao Xiaofei very much, and when he saw that Bao Xiaofei insisted on refusing to leave him, he nodded. When Secretary Miao of the Municipal Party Committee, on behalf of the Municipal Party Committee, asked Zhao Changfeng what other requirements he had for the organization, Zhao Changfeng asked, can Bao Xiaofei be transferred from Yuehai County? In fact, Zhao Changfeng can operate this matter by himself, but he frankly put this matter on the table, the purpose is to save from provoking other people's discussions. It's so amazing in officialdom, the more you sneak up on things that you don't want others to know, the more it will spread and passers-by will know it. If this matter is left on the table and exposed to the public eye, people will lose interest.

In this way, Bao Xiaofei was transferred to the Second Comprehensive Section of the Haizhou Municipal Government Office as the section chief, who is also the secretary of Zhao Changfeng, the executive vice mayor of Haizhou City.

As Executive Deputy Mayor. In addition to assisting Mayor Wang Kezhou, Zhao Changfeng is responsible for the daily work of the municipal government. In addition, he is also in charge of economic operation, finance and taxation, finance, auditing, urban construction, transportation and other aspects of local work.

In accordance with the intentions of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee. Put Zhao Changfeng in the position of executive vice mayor of Haizhou City. It is intended to use Haizhou City as a pilot. Let Zhao Changfeng implement the local experience of Yuehai County in the reform of the financial system in the whole city of Haizhou. and continue to deepen and improve its local measures. and so on. It will be implemented in the whole province of eastern Guangdong. Although Du Hongjun, secretary of the provincial party committee, admired Zhao Changfeng's implementation of local fiscal reform measures in Yuehai County. However, the financial impact is significant. Domino effect. Therefore, reform must be carried out in a prudent and gradual manner. Wait until you have enough experience. It will then be promoted in the whole province of eastern Guangdong. The risk of failure is much reduced.

Generally speaking. The secretary of the county party committee was promoted to deputy mayor. There are many examples of this. He was directly promoted from the secretary of the county party committee to the standing committee of the municipal party committee and executive vice mayor. It's rarer. Especially like Zhao Changfeng. Less than a year after serving as secretary of the county party committee, he was promoted to the position of member of the standing committee of the municipal party committee and executive deputy mayor. It is even more of a promotion and appointment that breaks the convention. From this unconventional initiative. It can also be glimpsed that the East Guangdong Provincial Party Committee has worked Zhao Changfeng's arrangement.

wants Zhao Changfeng to implement the reform of the financial system in Haizhou City. Zhao Changfeng must be given corresponding power. Generally speaking. The executive vice mayor is responsible for all financial work. Therefore, only by making Zhao Changfeng a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and executive vice mayor can it be convenient for Zhao Changfeng to carry out the reform of the financial system.

Secondly. If Zhao Changfeng is an ordinary deputy mayor. He does not serve as a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal As is customary. The deputy mayor should also have a deputy secretary of the municipal party committee to take charge of the work of the local government. This is equivalent to putting half of Zhao Changfeng's mother-in-law on his head. Generally speaking. If the deputy secretary in charge and the deputy mayor in charge disagree. There is only one choice for the lower ground cadres. Obey the deputy secretary. In this way, Zhao Changfeng's autonomy has been greatly idle.
