It took more than half a month for Yue Haohan to visit the three administrative areas and nineteen administrative villages of Guihuaping Township; In the past half a month, Yue Haohan rarely stayed in the township government office, and most of the time lived in the village or management area below; The other members of the township government team and the cadres of the organs seem to have forgotten about the newly transferred young party secretary, and more cadres and the masses are watching and watching how this young man starts to burn the first fire!

In mid-September, after returning to the township government from Fanjialing Village, to see that the time was still early, Yue Haohan found the township chief Li Qinggui, and informed Li Qinggui of the situation he had learned in the village for half a month. “

Yue Haohan said: "Township Chief Li, the purpose of our work is not to collect money from the masses, our purpose is development!" ”

"No money to develop a fart? It shouts development every day, so let's develop with our bare butts? Li Qinggui said a foul word, took out a cigarette, lit a cigarette, smoked, and then said: "Township cadres spend all their energy all year round on the collection of special agricultural taxes and the three mentions and five unifications, how can they have the energy to engage in development!" ”

Yue Haohan found that his concept was far from Li Qinggui's concept, and the two of them could hardly communicate in depth, Yue Haohan thought to himself, it seems that he wants to implement burden reduction in the whole township, and the assistant is not an ordinary big one, first of all, changing the concept of the cadres is a big problem.

After being silent for a while, Yue Haohan changed the topic and said: "Township Chief Li, I think a party committee has been held in the past two days, first, I want to listen to the work report of each team member, and then let everyone discuss, how to change the style of the township cadres, what do you think?" “

Li Qinggui said with a smile: "I agree with this suggestion, it is the right of you, the secretary of the party committee, to convene the township party committee, and the comrades have been looking forward to this meeting for a long time." ”

After communicating with fellow townsman Li Qinggui, starting from work the next day, in the office, Yue Haohan solicited everyone's opinions one by one according to the order in the party committee, starting with Hou Ximing, deputy secretary of the party committee; When Hou Ximing entered Yue Haohan's office, Yue Haohan got up with a smile, stepped forward to hold Hou Ximing's hand, and said: "Secretary Hou, I have been running in the village during this time, and I have not communicated with you, you are an old comrade, you have rich work experience, and you will help me more in the future." ”

Hou Ximing sat down on the sofa and said, "Secretary Yue, you are modest, I have just eaten more than you for decades, not to mention experience; However, I am still very familiar with the work in the countryside, Secretary Yue, don't worry, I will support and cooperate with your work in a while. ”

Yue Haohan sat down on the sofa with Hou Ximing and asked, "Secretary Hou, I have the impression that you have always been the deputy secretary of the management organ in Shijiawan Town, right?" ”

Hou Ximing replied: "Yes, I have always been in charge of the agency in Shijiawan Town. ”

Yue Haohan then asked: "It seems that our Guihuaping Township does not have a clear deputy secretary in charge of the organ, which is a bit out of line. ”

Hou Ximing said with a smile: "Our township has always made it clear that the members of the party committee, the director of the party and government office, and the director of the organ, this is not easy for others to do wrong. ”

Yue Haohan said: "Secretary Hou, I have an immature idea, first ask for your opinion, my idea is that you will grasp the work of the organ, you have been in charge of the organ in Shijiawan Town for many years, and learn from the good experience over there." ”

Hou Ximing smiled and shook his head, and replied: "Secretary Yue, you should spare me, managing the agency is an errand that offends people, besides, I am old, I am about to retire, and my energy is not good, I am afraid that I will make trouble for Secretary Yue if I don't manage it well!" ”

Yue Haohan asked Hou Ximing to manage the organs after careful consideration, and the phenomenon he saw on the first day of reporting made Yue Haohan very dissatisfied with the management of the Guihuaping Township organs deep down, and had great opinions on the sloppy style of the township cadres; Yue Haohan has been looking for candidates for the management agency in his heart, and later slowly pondered Hou Ximing's resume, Yue Haohan found that Hou Ximing was first promoted when Chen Guoyun was the secretary of the Party Committee of Shijiawan Town; After discovering this, Yue Haohan called Chen Guoyun once, and Chen Guoyun told Yue Haohan on the phone, Hou Ximing is good, the management agency is definitely a good hand, don't look at his usual smile, and he is unambiguous in managing people; If he doesn't support your work, tell me and I'll clean him up. After talking to Chen Guoyun on the phone, Yue Haohan knew that Hou Ximing had a good relationship with Chen Guoyun, and made up his mind in his heart to let Hou Ximing take charge of the organ.

Seeing that Hou Ximing did not explicitly refuse, nor did he readily agree, Yue Haohan smiled and changed the topic to Chen Guoyun, and said: "Secretary Hou, it is difficult to be in charge of Guihuaping Township, the team members are scattered, and the style of the cadres is floating. “

Sure enough, when Yue Haohan mentioned Chen Guoyun, Hou Ximing's attitude changed greatly, and he sighed and said: "County Magistrate Chen is a good leader, and every progress I make is the result of County Magistrate Chen's concern; Since that's the case, Secretary Yue, as long as you trust me, I will put on my old bones and arrest the work of the township organs. ”

When talking with Zhang Guomin, director of the Party and Government Office, Yue Haohan had a kind attitude and said with a smile: "Director Zhang, I have something I want to communicate with you, first of all, I will state that this is not criticized, you have other ideas; During this period of my visit, I found that the management of our township organs was chaotic, the cadres had a floating style and sloppy work, and you had been in Wulong Township for a long time, so you helped me analyze and analyze the reasons for this situation? ”

Zhang Guomin replied with a very aggrieved look: "Secretary Yue, the organ itself is a mess, and it is an errand that costs money, and I also want to take care of it, but Secretary Yue, you know, I, a member of the party committee, is the last in the ranking of the party committee, who do you want me to manage?" In addition, the various expenses of the organ are approved by Township Chief Li with a pen, every time the agency uses money, I find Township Chief Li, and Township Chief Li is a sentence, Xiao Zhang, our township is too poor, there is no money, you let everyone tighten their belts and bear with it; Even the money to buy a boiling water bottle in the agency, Township Chief Li couldn't pay it, so I simply let it go and let it go. “

On the third day, the party committee was held as scheduled, and deputy township mayors Li Yuguo and Chen Guoqiang attended as observers; The meeting was presided over by Hou Ximing, deputy secretary of the party committee and head of the CPPCC liaison group, and the first agenda item was the report of the team members, and the first to start reporting was the township head Li Qinggui.

Li Qinggui, who was sitting next to Yue Haohan, picked up the cigarette in front of him before reporting and handed it to Yue Haohan, Yue Haohan smiled, waved his hand and said: "Township Chief Li, I don't smoke, don't be so polite in the future!" ”

Li Qinggui said: "If you don't smoke for a year, buy a big yellow tendon (cow)."

Li Qinggui scattered the cigarette, drank a few sips of water, opened the notebook, coughed twice and said: "Then I'll start reporting first, even if you throw bricks and lead the way, if there is something wrong in the report, the comrades will criticize more." ”

Li Qinggui reported in detail on the overall work of the township government, Yue Haohan lowered his head and recorded it in his notebook seriously, listening and listening, Yue Haohan found a problem, Li Qinggui's report always revolved around the issue of "money", which made people feel that the taxes and fees levied by the township on the peasants were not too much, but too little, Yue Haohan secretly said in his heart: "It seems that the next step is to implement burden reduction in the whole township, and Township Chief Li here estimates that there will be great resistance." ”

Li Qinggui reported for more than an hour, except for Yue Haohan who listened carefully and remembered, some of the other team members went in and out from time to time, some yawned a lot, and some poured water and scattered smoke from time to time, making the whole venue very unserious.

Li Qinggui's report ended, followed by the deputy secretary Hou Ximing's report, the whole morning was all team members in accordance with the order of the report work, after lunch everyone did not rest, the meeting continued until more than four o'clock in the afternoon, deputy head Chen Guoqiang last reported to the end, Hou Ximing said: "From the morning to the present, everyone has reported on the work they are in charge of, and I invite Secretary Yue to speak." “

Yue Haohan closed the notebook in front of him, glanced at the team members in the conference room with his eyes, and then said slowly: "First of all, thank you comrades, you can systematically report on the work you are in charge of, which helps me understand the basic situation of the township as soon as possible. ”

Yue Haohan paused, and then said: "As the saying goes, there are three fires when a new official takes office, I am here today in front of my comrades, I will not and do not want to burn three fires, if you really say "burn fire", then the next thing we will discuss is my first fire!" ”

Yue Haohan picked up the cup on the conference table, took a big sip, and continued: "Chairman Mao once said that after the political line is determined, cadres are the decisive factor. As our township and town cadres at the grassroots level, we must correctly implement the policies, principles, and lines of our superiors. In my opinion, the key is to see what kind of style our cadres have; I have been to Guihuaping Township for less than a month, and what makes me feel the most obvious is that the style of our township cadres is floating, tired and tired, and there is no due cohesion, so I think that for our Guihuaping Township, the biggest and most urgent thing in front of us is to change the style, and then everyone will make a statement on how to change the style! “

Yue Haohan's unhurried words shocked the hearts of most of the team members present, especially the township chief Li Qinggui thought in his heart: "This is Yue Haohan taking such a way to exercise his authority, don't look at the young one, this move is ruthless!" ”

When Yue Haohan went to the village to investigate, some team members were still thinking in their hearts, if he went to the village just after taking office, was this Yue Haohan sick in his brain, he was young after all, and he didn't know that if he was in a hurry to go to the village, he would slowly fall into the complex and specific affairs of the township? But after hearing what he said just now, everyone didn't dare to underestimate Yue Haohan; As the secretary of the party committee, Yue Haohan does not mention specific work, but only mentions the construction of cadres' style, which is exactly what the party secretary should grasp and manage, and the breakthrough point is very good!

The meeting did not end until half past seven in the evening, and the meeting discussed and adopted the "Implementation Opinions on Strengthening the Construction of the Style of Cadres in Guihuaping Township", which came from the hands of Deputy Secretary Hou Ximing, Yue Haohan repeatedly revised it several times, and the central point had three points: "First, strengthen the education of cadres in the organs and change the style of work; the second is to improve the management system of organs and promote the change of the style of cadres and workers; The third is to change the style of work and promote development. ”

At the meeting, Yue Haohan assigned Hou Ximing, deputy secretary of the party committee, to be in charge of the affairs of the organ, and Zhang Guomin, member of the party committee and director of the party and government office, assisted in management; When making this decision, Yue Haohan did not ask for the opinions of other team members, there were already columns in Jiangyang County, and the township and township third-in-command were in charge of the organs, so except for Li Qinggui and Zhang Guomin who had some ideas, the other team members felt that it was normal for Hou Ximing to be in charge of the organs, and when they were in Shijiawan Town, they were originally in charge of the organs.
