Chapter 914: A Critical Battle

Just now, Mayor Xia lightly pushed aside the incident of Sister Ma, and he didn't care about it at all, but now he suddenly mentioned the personnel movement, and his thinking jumped too fast. A leader is a leader, and what you want is that you have to follow his train of thought.

Could it be that a trivial matter of Sister Ma damaging public property can really cause a big officialdom earthquake? Peng Yunfeng couldn't believe it, and second, it was very necessary for him to remind Mayor Xia that Bao Daguang was just an unimportant deputy secretary general of the municipal government, but he was a key bridge, which moved him, and it was easy to trigger a strong backlash from the economic circles of Tianze City

Bao Daguang originally had the opportunity to mention the secretary general and even the deputy mayor, but it was only because he was too afraid of his wife that he was reprimanded by his wife several times for making mistakes, so that the leaders changed their views on him and dispelled the idea of promoting him.

It is estimated that Bao Daguang is also the first person in China to miss the opportunity to be promoted twice because he is afraid of his wife.

Bao Daguang has many shortcomings, he is afraid of his wife, he is still greedy for money, and he is still stingy. However, we have to admit that he also has very outstanding merits, that is, he has studied the market economy very deeply, and has unique views on the antagonistic relationship between domestic monopoly oligopolies and private enterprises and how to promote each other's development, and so on.

Bao Daguang is a supporter of the private economy, and he believes that the way out for domestic reform and opening up is to support the development and growth of the private economy, and it is necessary to curb the further monopoly and irrational growth of the oligarchy economy.

If Xia Xiang were asked to distinguish between them, Xia Xiang would call the private economy a free economy, a free economy for the common people, while the oligarchy economy is the monopoly economy of vested interest groups, that is, the family power economy, or more figuratively called crony capitalism. Whether to foster the growth of a liberal economy or to continue to allow the oligarchy to further monopolize the market is a great divergence at the top, that is, the fundamental political ideological divide between the common forces and the family forces.

Because Bao Daguang hated the oligarchy economy, Zhang You, as a representative of the free economy, spared no effort to vigorously support it. But because of limited vision or ability problems, he can only use the authority in his hand to let Zhang You earn money from the government. However, it is precisely because of his views and deeds that he has won the hearts of the people in the industrial and commercial circles of Tianze City, and although Bao Daguang is not of high rank, almost all private business owners in Tianze City respect him very much.

Xia Xiang didn't know Bao Daguang's prestige among the business community, nor did he know that Bao Daguang had almost served as the director of the Municipal State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, but because his arguments were too inclined to the private economy, he was taken down at the last moment. But because of his deep insights into the reform of state-owned enterprises and the development of the private sector, Bao Daguang was almost equivalent to Mayor Mao's economic adviser when Mayor Mao was in office in the previous government.

Xia Xiang has a certain amount of research on the economy and his own economic philosophy, plus he is new to the university, and he doesn't know that Bao Daguang still has a learned side, of course, it is not that he intends to move Bao Daguang, but Li Xiaomin wants to move.

Not only Li Xiaomin wanted to move Bao Daguang, but also Wu Mingyi.

Wu Mingyi, as a representative of the family forces, has long been displeased with Bao Daguang, but now that he has seized the opportunity and has Xia Xiang's acquiescence, he will definitely not let go of the opportunity, so he intends to take advantage of the incident of Sister Ma's arrest to set a fire in the compound of the municipal party committee.

Wu Mingyi first returned to the office, thought about the cause and effect of the matter, and suddenly decided to talk to Xia Xiang face-to-face. He came to Xia Xiang's office, and Xu Ziqi politely and respectfully blocked him.

"Secretary Wu, please wait a moment, Mayor Xia is talking to Director Peng, I'll go and ask for instructions."

Although Peng Yunfeng is a member of the government team, Wu Mingyi still understands his personality and political tendencies, and he is shocked in his heart, Peng Yunfeng is now reporting to Mayor Xia, and he must be speaking for Bao Daguang. It's bad, Mayor Xia must not be shaken, now is a great opportunity to move the big light, and the opportunity must not be missed.

He smiled, and suddenly coughed loudly twice, as if he didn't do it on purpose, but actually deliberately made a noise for Xia Xiang to hear.

Wu Mingyi guessed correctly, Peng Yunfeng did tell Xia Xiang the importance of Bao Daguang, Peng Yunfeng said it very implicitly, he also knew that even if Bao Daguang had a great influence in the business community, moving him away, at most some people were dissatisfied, as a private enterprise that was not valued by the government, they just dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, and there would be no unstable factors.

Peng Yunfeng mainly recognized Bao Daguang's economic opinions, thinking that he was a talent and might be able to give advice to Mayor Xia, so he persuaded Xia to have a tolerant attitude towards Bao Daguang's affairs.

Xia Xiang was transferred to Tianze City by his family's forces, and his political stance would definitely be biased towards the oligopoly economy and monopolies in the eyes of outsiders. But it's still a short time, and Mayor Xia hasn't clearly shown his political leanings.

Peng Yunfeng took Bao Daguang to talk about things, in fact, he also had his own little abacus, just to take this opportunity to test Mayor Xia's political leanings. Tianze City is too conservative, and its support for private enterprises is too weak, and the state-owned enterprises, which have a weak foundation and are not able to get their hands on, have all their limited political and economic resources inclined to state-owned enterprises that are overburdened, resulting in the complaints of private enterprises and their inability to develop and grow.

If you want to promote the economic development of Tianze City, we must have the spirit of innovation, change the status quo of insufficient government support for private enterprises, for some state-owned enterprises with poor efficiency but occupy a lot of social resources, they should be cut and closed, and the useful resources should be reasonably allocated to private enterprises and revitalize the free economy, so that Tianze City can change the status quo.

In all fairness, Peng Yunfeng also hopes that Xia Xiang's arrival can break the outdated and backward status quo of Tianze City, first of all, to change the free and casual work style of the municipal party committee and municipal government, whether Bao Daguang is removed is not the focus of his concern, he wants to know Mayor Xia's political tendencies, so as to determine the direction of his future work. That's why he solemnly took Bao Daguang's view of supporting private enterprises to see what Mayor Xia's attitude was.

Mayor Xia's performance disappointed Peng Yunfeng -- he first thought about it thoughtfully, and then said: "Comrade Bao Daguang's personal problems and economic opinions cannot be mixed...... As soon as he said a word, Wu Mingyi's coughing sound happened to be heard outside.

Xia Xiang could also understand Peng Yunfeng's idea that he was eager to know his political leanings, but now was not the time to show it. Since he had already agreed to the Wu family in the capital, and now that he had just come to Tianze City, he showed diametrically opposite political tendencies, which would not only dislike the family forces, but even the prime minister would think that he was duplicitous.

"Sister Ma's affairs will be handled by Xiaomin with full authority." Xia Xiang waved his hand, "Go and invite Secretary Wu in." ”

Peng Yunfeng tried not to show a disappointed look, nodded respectfully and withdrew, and did not forget to say hello when he saw Wu Mingyi, but Wu Mingyi just snorted lightly: "Xiao Peng, I have been more active recently, not bad, very self-motivated." ”

Peng Yunfeng knew that there was irony in Wu Mingyi's words, and he couldn't refute it, so he had to smile reluctantly.

Wu Mingyi came to Xia Xiang's office and smiled enthusiastically: "Mayor Xia, I should have come to invite you to a meal a long time ago, this is not just in time for the recent series of documents issued by the provincial party committee, and it is really impossible to learn and comprehend the spirit of the documents of the provincial party committee every day." ”

Xia wanted to see that Wu Mingyi looked rough and spoke boldly, but his eyes were not big, and when he turned extremely fast, he knew that he was a shrewd person, so he laughed: "Secretary Wu is polite, work first, work first." ”

Wu Mingyi sat down and took the initiative to hand Xia Xiang a cigarette, but Xia Xiang declined: "I don't have a big addiction to smoking, I usually only smoke one when I think about something." ”

Wu Mingyi was not reluctant, he nodded to himself, took a sip before saying, "I'll smoke one, Mayor Xia doesn't object, right?" ”

Xia Xiang smiled and waved his hand, but he didn't answer, waiting for Wu Mingyi to provoke the topic.

Wu Mingyi took two more puffs before he opened his mouth again: "According to my seniority, I should call Minister Wu Uncle ......"

The opening remarks made his identity clear, obviously to bring the relationship closer, Xia Xiang still smiled, did not speak, but just put on a posture of listening. Seeing this, Wu Mingyi had a sense of proportion in his heart, knowing that Mayor Xia didn't like to go around the corner, so he made it clear what he meant.

"Bao Daguang's problem is very serious, Sister Ma is his sister-in-law, and the act of deliberately damaging public property is very bad, and it is also intentional revenge, which is enough to be investigated for criminal responsibility. She also admitted that she was instructed by Bao Daguang to take malicious revenge on her from the administrative department, and she also reported the fact that Bao Daguang accepted bribes, and in order to strive for leniency, she also said that Bao Daguang did tricks in the process of maintenance and renovation of the municipal government, embezzled and embezzled public funds, borrowed and squandered ......"

Xia Xiang couldn't help but glance at Wu Mingyi more, he was quick enough, how much effort did it take, and he had already taken so many things out of Sister Ma's mouth? It can be seen how urgent he is to move Bao Daguang. If it weren't for Peng Yunfeng just now saying another layer of Bao Daguang's identity and influence, Xia Xiang would really not be able to understand why Wu Mingyi was in a hurry to kick Bao Daguang away

Wu Mingyi is a representative of the family power, and Bao Daguang opposes the expansion of the family power, and now that he has the opportunity to make a move, it is strange that Wu Mingyi does not fly with a kick.

Xia Xiang said with a solemn face: "Is it really so serious? Corruption and embezzlement of public funds are absolutely intolerable and must be severely punished. I have already asked Comrade Xiaomin to be specifically responsible for the investigation, and Secretary Wu can inform Comrade Xiaomin of the situation. ”

Xia Xiang's attitude was a bit unexpected by Wu Mingyi, he thought that Xia Xiang would definitely be overjoyed, and it was even possible to get closer to him, after all, he was also a descendant of the Wu family, but he didn't expect Xia Xiang to be lukewarm at first, and then he was indifferent to the Bao Daguang incident, which made him a little confused.

But he didn't dare to ask indiscriminately, not to mention the close relationship between Xia Xiang and the Wu family, which he couldn't catch up with after the horse, that is, Xia Xiang was the No. 2 person in the municipal party committee, the dignified mayor, and he didn't dare to go beyond it, so he hummed a few more words, and still didn't see Mayor Xia's clear statement, so he got up and left.

Xia Xiang also gave him face and sent it to the door.

The next day, the news that Sister Ma was arrested and confessed to Bao Daguang's embezzlement and embezzlement of public funds spread in the compound of the municipal party committee. Xia Xiang didn't care, even Li Xiaomin came to report his work, but he was politely blocked by Xu Ziqi, Li Xiaomin understood something, and stopped bothering Mayor Xia about this matter.

In the afternoon of the same day, at a government work meeting, Li Xiaomin raised the issue of Comrade Bao Daguang as serious and it was necessary to suspend him from his post for reflection. Xu Fanhua and Yang Jian did not object, because they all knew that Bao Daguang did have something on him, and his hands and feet were not clean, mainly they also saw that although Mayor Xia had been silent on this matter, it was obviously a supportive attitude, and there was another point, the person was caught by Secretary Wu, Secretary Wu spared no effort to take down Bao Daguang, and his attitude was very resolute, as the deputy secretary in charge of personnel, his words brought pressure to many people.

Even Chen Jiewen, like Xia Xiang, did not express any opinions from beginning to end, and the first and second leaders of the municipal party committee invariably remained silent, regardless of whether the starting point was the same or not, but the purpose was the same, and did not tolerate Bao Daguang's behavior

Three days later, Bao Daguang was removed from his post and investigated, and Li Qingpoor was also implicated and suspended for reflection. Perhaps it was a coincidence that the Municipal People's Congress held a meeting in the afternoon to officially elect Xia Xiang as the mayor of Tianze Municipal People's Government and Yang Jian as the deputy mayor of Tianze Municipal People's Government.

Comrade Yang Jian is the executive vice mayor, presiding over the daily work of the government, responsible for the National Development and Reform Commission and the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and concurrently serving as the director of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission.

When the division of labor was adjusted, the city construction that originally belonged to Xu Fanhua also belonged to Yang Jian, although Xu Fanhua implicitly expressed his dissatisfaction, but the deputy mayor who supported Yang Jian accounted for the majority, and Mayor Xia was also supportive, so he reluctantly accepted the reality.

Bao Daguang was removed from his post and investigated, Li Qingpoor was suspended for reflection, and Li Qingpoor may also be replaced depending on the direction of the wind, a deputy secretary general and a director of the administrative department, both vacancies are fat, which immediately attracted the attention of many people, and people's hearts fluctuated.

Xia Xiang has the right to decide on personnel issues within the municipal government, but Executive Deputy Mayor Yang Jian also has the right to suggest, and I don't know if Yang Jian was instructed or Mayor Xia was too busy to take care of it, anyway, no one raised the question of successor.

However, Peng Yunfeng still remembered that Mayor Xia mentioned it to him, and thought that Mayor Xia really asked for his opinion, so he drafted a few candidates and handed them to Mayor Xia. Mayor Xia was noncommittal, and only asked him to put it down, saying that he would study it, and then there was no follow-up.

Peng Yunfeng obviously felt that Mayor Xia's attitude towards him was cold, and he didn't know the bottom of his heart, guessing that it must be something that made Mayor Xia unhappy, was it because of the last temptation?

Although I know that the leader's mind is difficult to fathom, as a subordinate, I have to ponder the leader's mind. Zhang You asked someone to move Xu Xin again, and Xu Xin found Peng Yunfeng again, hoping that Peng Yunfeng could ask Xia Xiang to come forward and take the time to appreciate the light. Peng Yunfeng thought about it for a while, but decided to dare to mention it to Mayor Xia again.

As expected, it hit a wall again, and Mayor Xia's words were very polite: "Don't be polite, I just came to Tianze City, and I have to start from scratch with a thousand things, and I will be free of food, and I will talk about it later." Thank you Zhang You for your kindness for me, by the way, and Minister Xu, who also bothered him. ”

Politeness is polite, but it is an attitude of rejecting people thousands of miles away, which makes Peng Yunfeng feel more and more uncertain.

Soon after, another thing happened that made Peng Yunfeng even more unpleasant......

A few days later, Xu Xin took the opportunity to discuss the candidate for deputy secretary general to talk with Xia Xiang, first talking about business, then talking about private matters, and once again proposed to invite Xia Xiang to dinner, Mayor Xia hesitated for a while, and actually agreed

Peng Yunfeng listened, sat alone in the office, didn't move for a long time, and his heart was up and down, embarrassed and troubled. He knew that Mayor Xia must have an opinion on him, and it was clear that he wanted to dry him. If he comes forward to ask for a move, Minister Xu will come forward and ask for a move, which will make Minister Xu see clearly that he has no weight in Mayor Xia's mind.

Peng Yunfeng thought about it, sweated profusely, and then sorted out everything from beginning to end, almost knowing what he was wrong, he was too smart, and always wanted to test the leader's tone. It is not impossible to test the leader's tone, but it must be done in a hidden way, so that the leader will not be aware of it, and the leader must not be disgusted.

Mayor Xia is too smart, and his clever tricks in front of him will not work at all, but will be self-defeating.

……

Xia Xiang, accompanied by Xu Xin, came to the Deqing Hotel. Deqing Hotel is also one of the best high-end places in Tianze City, Zhang You stood at the door, greeted with a smile, and when he saw Xia wanted to come, he nodded and greeted him.

"Mayor Xia, hello, hello, I'm Zhang You, last time we met, you may not have an impression, but I am deeply impressed by Mayor Xia, and my admiration for you is like a surging river......"

Xia wanted to reach out and shake hands with Zhang You, so he interrupted him unceremoniously: "Zhang You, don't just be able to say beautiful things, but also learn to do beautiful things." Everyone can say beautiful things, but few people can do beautiful things. ”

Zhang You didn't expect Mayor Xia to come up and point out directly, but he was thick-skinned and had already practiced without immersion, so he smiled: "Mayor Xia has learned a lesson, I must change my mistakes, and I am very good." ”

Xia Xiang smiled, so as not to correct the mistakes in Zhang You's words, and entered the room under the leadership of Zhang You.

Xu Xin is not tall, it is estimated that he is about 1.65 meters, plus he is thin, so he is 50 years old this year, like a thin old man. The main party and government leaders of Tianze City are obviously much older than the party and government leaders of Lang City, and perhaps it is precisely because of their age that the political atmosphere of Tianze City is more mature, more mellow, or simply more sleek.

The reason why Xia Xiang agreed to Zhang You's banquet was based on three considerations, one of which was that the housing project really needed to be settled early. Second, his attitude is very resolute, if Zhang You does not agree to the 30 percent advance payment terms, he would rather change to another developer. Third, because the housing project is the beginning of his visit to Tianze City, it is not only related to the establishment of the mayor's authority, but also related to whether his governing philosophy can be successfully promoted in Tianze City

PS: It's understandable that the monthly pass is less, the brothers haven't consumed it yet, but the recommended ticket should not be less. If you don't have a commuter pass, you have to rely on a recommended ticket to refuel. The official god who is 10,000 words a day and can't be shaken, is worthy of the brothers to vote for support, ask for a recommendation vote, and ask for a monthly ticket
