Personnel issues have always been sensitive. Although the mayor did not come to arrest personnel. However, the secretary general of the city government, members of the government team, and the mayor have the right to intervene. Xu Xin pondered for a moment: "Mayor Li and Peng Yunfeng have both made suggestions to the Organization Department, the Organization Department has not yet made a comprehensive assessment, and I heard that Secretary Wu has also been nominated....

Although the position of deputy secretary-general is not a particularly critical position, "because he is in charge of the administrative department, he knows that the administrative department is full of oil and water, so he is concerned about the vacancy after Bao Daguang resigns." The appointment of the deputy secretary general can be large or small, "the secretary's office meeting can approve it, and if it is large, it must be discussed by the standing committee."

Sure enough, Xia Xiang's guess is not true, the deputy secretary-general candidate "Secretary Wu has been nominated, Mayor Li and Peng Yunyu have also proposed, submitted to the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee, and the Organization Department also has candidates, the most dazzling thing is that the Organization Department has not yet decided on the nomination" Chen Jiewensuo, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, also hinted through the secretary that Long Min, director of the Personnel Department of the Government Office, is more suitable to serve as the deputy secretary-general of the municipal government.

The candidate nominated by Secretary Wu is Fu Hongmei, director of the Secretariat of the Government Office, and Li Xiaomin and Peng Yunfeng proposed the same person, Gao Fei, director of the Information Department of the Government Office.

There are three or four people vying for the position of deputy secretary-general, "although it is only a deputy department, it can be regarded as a rare promotion." Especially for many people who have been stuck at the department level for more than ten years or even most of their lives, it may be the only chance to be promoted.

It is inevitable to break the head or even fight for the head to break the blood, "In the face of promotion, no one is humble, let alone retreating."

However, Mayor Xia, one of the most critical mentions, became an outsider, not only did not nominate candidates, but also didn't seem to care about who served as the deputy secretary-general, accompanied by secretary Xu Ziqi, accompanied by the developer who came to the capital to inspect the housing project.

The developer who came to the capital is a well-known and powerful construction company Dawan Real Estate, Chen Pengcheng, deputy general manager of Dawan Real Estate, is very individual, bald and big-nosed, looks very happy, like a certain comedian, but the smile on his face is rarely always serious.

Chen Pengcheng is a friend of Yang Wei, this time to Tianze City, one is to inspect the construction market of Jiaze City, because of the launch of the Dajing City Economic Circle, Tianze City to build Jingbei New City, although there is no formal project, but because Yang Wei knows Xia Xiang Dawan Real Estate decided to take the lead. Second, he is also very interested in the housing project, although the profit of the housing project is relatively low, but the payment is guaranteed, which is conducive to enhancing the corporate image and firing the first shot.

Generally speaking, it is rare for developers from other places to win the housing project, and it is basically divided by local enterprises. But now taking advantage of the new mayor of Xia's office, Chen Pengcheng was moved by just listening to Yang Wei's simple words, and immediately decided to come to Tianze City to have a look.

In fact, with Chen Pengcheng's identity, there is no need for Xia Xiang to accompany him personally, just let a deputy mayor come forward, but Xia Xiang is to give Yang Wei some face, "After all, Yang Wei has always been very enthusiastic, and secondly, he also intends to take the opportunity to personally inspect the real estate market in Tianze City at close range, after all, after he became the mayor, he has not really come to the masses to come and see."

Hearing is false, seeing is believing.

In the process of accompanying Chen Pengcheng for inspection, Xia Xiang also gained a lot. Tianze City is much poorer and more backward than he imagined", in addition to the common characteristics of tourist cities, the main streets are clean and tidy, and the general streets are crowded and very dilapidated, which means that wherever tourists can see, they must be beautiful. The place that can't be seen is left dirty, and it is also called good steel on the blade, but in fact, it is unceremoniously said that it is the donkey dung and eggs, and the whole city has no vigorous upward selling force, giving people a feeling of twilight.

Xia Xiang's mood was a little heavy.

But he can also understand that Tianze City, which is neither an ancient city nor an emerging city, has no glorious history to boast of, and no emerging city can move forward lightly. Tianze City is not as young as Yan City and the advantages of the provincial capital, "nor is it as good as the geographical advantages of Lang City, which is not as active as the fluctuation of people's hearts, and the back of the mountain faces the capital, so I started to dream of autumn in the idea of a corner of peace."

If you want to sell the city's selling power, you have to be ruthless, make great efforts, and you have to introduce external forces to impact, of course, "he also needs to be the mayor's pioneering spirit in governing ideas, and make a big fuss about how to better attract investment and not guide the government's work style, which is the most important thing he should do at this stage."

Of course, he also knew that Tianze City and Lang City were completely different, in Lang City, you could use fierce medicine, but Tianze City couldn't. Tianze City is like an old mention: "Excessive use of drugs is easy to cause death." But you can be ruthless, but you also have to find the right place to be ruthless, otherwise you may also receive the opposite effect.

It is precisely because Tianze City is like a pool of stagnant water, but there are also undercurrents under the water, so Xia Xiangcai changed his thinking, not directly intervening by political means, but using economic means to leverage all parties, and not taking personnel issues as the starting point, "We must use market adjustment means to influence the personnel standing."

Although Tianze City is a harmonious atmosphere on the surface, in fact, if it is really to carry out the work, it is even more difficult than Lang Mou, and it requires higher political wisdom and more meticulous patience.

Xia Xiang's inspection work was only halfway through when he received a call from the municipal party committee, asking him to return to the municipal party committee as soon as possible, because he had to hold a secretary's office meeting to discuss the selection of deputy secretary general.

The call was made by Peng Yunyi, who hurried to Xia Xiang's office to find Mayor Xia after receiving the notice from the municipal party committee, but found that Mayor Xia and his secretary were not there, and he didn't know where he went.

Peng Yunfeng was stunned on the spot, he didn't move for a long time, and he didn't feel good in his heart. He is the secretary general of the municipal government, and the mayor's major actions have always been "coordinated by him" after unified research and arrangement, but now he has no idea where the mayor has gone, not because of his dereliction of duty, but because of the mayor's deliberate neglect.

The secretary general did not know that the mayor was going to inspect the work, and he did not know what the mayor was doing, and the anxiety and frustration in his heart could be imagined. Thinking of Mayor Xia's attitude towards him in recent days, Peng Yunfeng knew that if he didn't adjust his work methods in time, "he couldn't fully adapt to Mayor Xia's style, and he would face the possibility of being idle."

He broke out in a cold sweat.

Xia wanted to return to the municipal party committee, "When I got to the office, I just wanted to drink a sip of water and go to the meeting, just when the phone rang, it turned out to be Xu Xin's call."

"Mayor Xia, what is the spirit of your instructions on the nomination of the deputy secretary candidate?"

Xu Xin asked for his opinion in advance, which is also a kind of due respect for the family to ventilate in advance, and it is also in line with the procedure, Xia Xiang can't be without tendencies, so he made it clear implicitly: "The provincial leader once praised Lang City at a meeting, and Lang City was at the forefront of the province in the appointment of female cadres. ”

Xu Xin understood, Xia Xiang preferred Fu Hongmei, the candidate nominated by Secretary Wu, because she was the only woman among several candidates. Xu Xin didn't say much, and changed the topic very smartly: "Zhang Youtuo, I'll tell you" He will raise all the funds within three days, embarrassing this and this. The"

Before Zhang You agreed, Xia Xiang smiled heartily, and he somewhat admired Zhang You's vision and lack of courage. He agreed to advance 30 percent of the money, which was equivalent to setting a precedent for the advance of the construction industry in Tianze City, breaking the conventional conventions, and opening a wider road for the conservative and backward private economy of Tianze City.

What Xia wants is the power of example, he believes that if Zhang You is smart enough to keep up with his train of thought, Zhang You will not be able to become bigger and stronger in Tianze City.

Xia Xiang smiled and said: "The housing project is specifically responsible for Comrade Yang Wu. It is true that "Yang Wu is the executive vice mayor and the specific person in charge of the housing project, but Xia Xiang is the mayor" to preside over the overall work. The meaning of presiding over the overall work is that you can meddle in whoever you want to do, and you can do it.

Of course, Xu Xin understood that Xia Xiang acquiesced to Zhang You's performance, so he said, "I'll see you later."

When Xia Xiang came to the secretary's office, the people were almost there, and he was not as last as Xu Xin. When Xia Xiang and Xu Xin came in one after another, Chen Jiewen's eyes flashed with a hint of doubt.

Xu Xin's call was very timely, "I didn't ventilate with him in advance, and it can be regarded as a peach return for his last face, although the Li family said that Xia Xiang did not make the slightest concession", but in fact, it also hinted to Zhang You that a lot of family gave Zhang You firm confidence.

Many times people are faced with a choice. Left or right, you have to choose a path, you have to stand in line. The opportunity is just around the corner, and Mayor Xia has clearly given a multiple-choice question with only two answers, so it's much easier to choose.

Anyway, Mayor Xia's attitude is very clear, if you want to keep up with him, you must follow his train of thought when you take the first step, otherwise everything will not be discussed. Zhang You said that it was a compromise or a wise choice, anyway, he decided to get closer to Mayor Xia, even if it was a dangerous one-way street, he would come all the way to the dark. Zhang You also let it go, it is rare to fight once in life, so he will gamble again.

Xia Xiang didn't care what Zhang You thought, he only gave a choice, how the road came was someone else's business, he just needed to firmly grasp the initiative. Zhang You should not be the first bird, there will be others to be the first, Li You, Wang You, there must be no shortage of latecomers. Zhang You decided to get closer at the last moment, because he was smart.

A total of four mentions participated in the secretary's office, including Chen Jiewen, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Xia Xiang, Mayor, Wu Mingyi, Deputy Secretary, and Xu Xin, Minister of Organization of the Municipal Party Committee.

"Comrades are convened for a meeting today" to discuss the nomination of the deputy secretary general of the government. Although the relationship between Xu Xin and her is not particularly close, it is basically to follow her instructions in everything, the secretary of the municipal party committee must control the organization department, otherwise he will lose the initiative in personnel "It is a very incompetent performance," Comrade Xu Xin spoke on behalf of the organization department. ”

Xu Xin also noticed Chen Jiewen's gaze, his biggest ability is to pretend not to see, he has worked in the organization department for a long time, and has the ability to turn a blind eye and listen to it, he lowered his head and "read according to the script:" "According to the layers of the organization department, strict assessment" The following comrades are in line with the promotion: Comrade Long Mingeng, Director of the Personnel Department of the Government Office, Comrade Fu Hongmei, Director of the Secretariat of the Government Office, Comrade Gao Fei, Director of the Information Department of the Government Office, and Comrade Mu Feng, Director of the Secretariat of the Municipal Party Committee.

Xu Xin is not biased, all the nominations have been reported, and none of them are missed, which is really a good person's style.

Chen Jiewen didn't say anything, and frowned slightly: "What is the assessment opinion of the Organization Department?" Long Min is her nomination, Xu Xin is ranked first, and she respects the authority of the secretary of the municipal party committee, but the ranking at the time of nomination is not counted, mainly depends on the assessment ranking of the organization department.

"After careful assessment, comparison and study, the organization department believes that Long Min and Fu Hongmei two comrades, stronger business ability, work style is more focused on recommending the above two comrades to invite the leadership of the municipal party committee to study and decide, although the organization department is known as the first department in the world, but strictly speaking it is only a department directly under the municipal party committee, if it is not high, the minister's level is not even as good as the ordinary deputy mayor but because of the high allocation of the Standing Committee, it was forcibly promoted by half a grade, but there is no Chen Jiewen, Xia Xiang, Wu Mingyi is not compared, Xu Xin still does not have enough weight to speak.

Needless to say, the secretary of the municipal party committee and the mayor are the highest leaders of the party and government of a city, and Wu Mingyi, as the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, is also more powerful than Xu Xin. Of course, when Mei Shengping was the head of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, he could contend with Cui Xiangjia, deputy secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, and it was a different matter, "because Mei Shengping is the Mei family", cannot be reasoned with normal.

Longmin is not even nominated by Fu Hongmei for Chen Jiewen and Wu Mingyi, it is a contest between two secretaries, Xu Xin is not guilty of anyone, and the two candidates nominated by Li Xiaomin and the Organization Department are also the result of judging the situation. Under the collision of the president and deputy secretary, the nomination of an ordinary deputy mayor and the organization department "is basically negligible, so there is no need to use it as cannon fodder."

Xu Xin didn't have Xia to ventilate in advance, and Chen Jiewen and Wu Mingyi were a little guessed, who did Mayor Xia support? It can be said that in the current situation, Xia Xiang's opinion is tilted, and the balance will be tilted in which way. Of course, there may also be a two-to-two confrontation, and if no one makes concessions at that time, it will have to be submitted to the Standing Committee for discussion

"Long Min is more comrade, older, older, and more stable, so he should be more suitable to serve as deputy secretary general." Chen Jiewen didn't go around the corner, she came up and directly said her opinion, taking the lead is an advantage, she is the secretary and has the right to be the first to speak.

"Lao Long is indeed qualified enough, and he is also old, but he is too rigid to serve as the deputy secretary-general, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to do the coordination work, especially Mayor Xia is in the prime of life, and I hope to use newcomers and young people more boldly, the municipal party committee compound is too dull, and it needs vitality and sunshine." Wu Mingyi did not show weakness, and grasped the shortcomings of Long Min's older age, "Lao Long is too old this year, and the staff in the municipal party committee are all older, and some citizens jokingly call our municipal party committee a nursing home, and if the deputy secretary general is over Q years old, I am afraid that he will not be able to keep up with the rhythm of Mayor Xia." ”

Wu Mingyi directly moved out of Xia Xiang's youth to talk about things, to be older than Longmin, "No matter how self-contained Chen Jiewen is, it is inevitable that her face will not be good." Among the few people present, "she is the oldest, many years older than Xia Xiang, and older than Wu Mingyi" Wu Mingyi's extraneous meaning, isn't it even ironic for her?

is also a nursing home, really ridiculous, meaning that she is the director of the nursing home?

I didn't think that the party and government leaders of Tianze City were too old before, but after Xia Xiang came, the contrast was indeed strong, and now Wu Mingyi emphasized it, and then thought of the age of the municipal party secretary, mayor and main party and government leaders of other cities, which is indeed younger than the average age of Tianze City, and it is really unyielding to say that Tianze Municipal Party Committee is a nursing home!

But the problem is that there are some things that everyone knows, but they don't need to be said. The face in officialdom is like this, you must learn the ability to turn a blind eye, and what you pay attention to is tacitly.

Wu Mingyi is good, he said it directly, Chen Jiewen, it's strange if you're not angry!

Xia Xiang was not happy, Wu Mingyi directly said to him, and also wanted him to be the pole, he was originally inclined to Fu Hongmei's position, but he didn't need to be persecuted, so he waved his hand and said: "Lao Wu is not entirely right, the old comrades have the benefits of the old comrades, the old comrades are steady, reliable, and don't come to detours" The sea sails by the helmsman, we still need the old comrades to lead the way for us, show the way, and our work will not deviate. ”

Wu Mingyi was stunned for a moment, faintly heard the unhappiness in Xia Xiang's tone, and was puzzled, "Will Mayor Xia support Chen Jiewen?"

Chen Jiewen's eyes flashed a few times, and she thought about it a lot, and shouted directly out of "Old Wu", indicating that he did not agree with Wu Mingyi's age-based views, and he had the grace. As a young man who has just been in his early years, it is really rare not to be proud of his youth.

But praise is appreciation, Chen Jiewen knows that Xia Xiang refuted Wu Mingyi, which does not mean that he is holding her nomination, she is not naïve enough to think that Xia Xiang will act rashly because she disagrees with Wu Mingyi's certain point of view.

However, there are no more veteran comrades in the municipal party committee, but the proportion of female cadres is too small, and it is not quite in line with the spirit of the instructions of the central authorities that have repeatedly emphasized the promotion of female cadres to important posts; if there are many veteran comrades in the Tianze municipal party committee, and if female cadres are very scarce, the impression given to the outside world will be too conservative and old-fashioned, which is not conducive to the development of economic work in the future. The deputy secretary general of the municipal party committee is all men, and there is a female cadre" can also reflect the bold and innovative spirit of the municipal party committee. ”

Sure enough, as soon as Xia Xiang changed the topic, he expressed his support for Fu Hongmei's position.

Chen Jiewen didn't say anything, her eyelids lifted slightly, and she glanced at Xu Xin.

What no one expected was that Xu Xin's statement made the next situation take a sharp turn, which surprised Chen Jiewen and Wu Mingyi.
