Lu Chen pointed to the document on the desk and said: "Zeng County, didn't the city just issue a document on organization and personnel, the document particularly emphasized that in the issue of personnel appointment and dismissal, we must earnestly achieve the 'three publics', since the three of you are deadlocked, why not implement the spirit of the city's documents and open competition for those positions, which can not only resolve the deadlock, but also satisfy the city leaders, why not?" ”

"Lu County, your proposal is good, but will Jiang and Cui agree?" Zeng Xinhua said.

"Zeng County, you can't ask me about this, but it depends on your persuasion skills, but if you can say it out of public intentions, I think Secretary Jiang and Deputy Secretary Cui will agree." Lu Chen said.

Zeng Xinhua said "um" and said: "Lu County, I'll go back and think about it first and then try to persuade it, so I won't bother." After speaking, he stood up, and Lu Chen sent him to the door of the office.

In the afternoon, Jiang Hang brought a phone call to Lu Chen, asking if it was his idea that Zeng Xinhua had proposed to him just now that he should adopt an open competition for vacant grass-roots leading cadre positions, Lu Chen said yes, and Jiang Hang said that since this is the case, he also agreed.

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Secretary, I can't afford to say this." ”

Jiang Hang laughed and said: "Lu County, you are too modest, if you can't afford it, who can afford it in the entire Binhai City?" ”

"The leaders of the city." Lu Chen said.

"No, no, Lu County, I think your ability is much stronger than theirs." Jiang Hang said.

"Secretary, please be cautious when you speak, if you let the city leaders know what you say, not only will the leaders not give me good fruits to eat, but they will also be dissatisfied with you." Lu Chen pretended to be worried and said.

"I'm telling you the truth, and besides, that's all I can say to you." Jiang Hang said.

Lu Chen groaned: "Secretary, can I think that you are testing my background?" ”

Jiang Hang didn't expect Lu Chen to be so direct, he was stunned for a moment, and said embarrassedly after a while: "Lu County, to be honest, I did have the intention of tempting just now, but this is all because you make me too curious, the support of the Southeast Military Region to our county is a living example, this curiosity has been holding back in my heart and uncomfortable, I hope you understand." ”

Lu Chen said that it was okay, and then asked Jiang Hang if he had any instructions, Lu Chen's words Jiang Hang knew that he would not reveal anything to himself, and sighed secretly and said, "Nothing else, okay, so be it." ”

Two days later, the organization department of the county party committee promulgated a plan for the recruitment of those vacant grass-roots leading cadres posts, and these positions include section-level principal posts and deputy section-level deputy posts; among them, those in the former category must be incumbent deputy section-level cadres, and they must also be members of the ruling party; in addition to the incumbent unit-level cadres, the latter category is also allowed to participate in the competition, and there is no requirement for party membership.

As soon as the plan was introduced, it caused a sensation in the county, comrades and the people were hotly discussed, and the first sentence of acquaintances in the streets and alleys was "Have you signed up to participate in the competition?"

Almost all the cadres in the county who are qualified to participate in the competition have signed up within the specified time, followed by a nervous reading and review, because according to the competition process formulated by the plan, the written examination on September 10 is now the end of August, and there are only ten days to go, which is very urgent.

The county reported to the city about the open competition, and Secretary Fu attached great importance to it, and assigned Yu Man to personally lead the team to Sanyang County to supervise the scene, with two purposes, one is to ensure that the county's competition work is effectively "three public", and the other is to let other districts and counties realize that the city attaches great importance to this work, and then follow Sanyang County.

In this way, there is one more bright spot in the work of Binhai City this year, although there have been open competitions before, and there are still some other places doing it, but there are very few in the city now.

Now, when Binhai City is at a low ebb in this work, it suddenly implements it in a high-profile manner, and effectively implements this work, can it not attract widespread attention, and it is natural to become a bright spot.

Secretary Fu attaches so much importance to and also appoints Minister Yu to personally lead the team to supervise, which shows that the county's move does cater to the intentions of the leadership, Jiang Hang is very excited, and he has worked harder to promote the open competition work, not only from time to time to inquire about the progress of the work, but also often go to the countryside to understand the "preparations" of the candidates and encourage them.

The leaders of other districts and counties in Binhai City are not vegetarians, how could they not understand the intentions of the leaders from Secretary Fu's actions, but they can't just comprehend, they have to show it with practical actions, so they have formed teams to come to Sanyang County, saying that they are learning from experience and accumulating experience for the next open competition in their districts and counties.

Sanyang County, which has been lagging behind, has become famous because of the open competition for work, and has become a model for other districts and counties to learn, which can make Jiang Hang happy, but Le Ji is "sad", and Yu Man suddenly asked him the afternoon before the competition: "Comrade Jiang Hang, you said that this open competition was first proposed by Comrade Lu Chen, so how can there be no him among the members of this evaluation team?" ”

Jiang Hang was stunned, and then said cautiously: "Yu Ministry, Comrade Lu Chen is not a member of the Standing Committee, so he ......"

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Yu Man said unhappily: "The review team is not a Standing Committee, why do you have to be a member of the Standing Committee?" ”

"Yu Bu, do you mean to let Comrade Lu Chen participate in the review?" Jiang Hang asked categorically.

"Not that I mean, but you have to." Yu Man snorted.

"Yes, Yu Ministry, I will ask the Organization Department to redraft the text and add Comrade Lu Chen's name to the list of members of the review team." Jiang Hang nodded repeatedly.

As a result, the organization department of the county party committee reprinted the documents while calling the departments to hand over the original documents, and the comrades did not know what was going on for a while, and thought that there had been a change in the competition work, and the written test would be held tomorrow.

After learning that the plan had not changed, they were relieved that Lu County's name had to be added to the list of members of the evaluation team, and after this episode, Lu Chen became a "cattle man" in the minds of comrades, first, because he was qualified to decide the fate of the candidates with the Standing Committee, and second, because he, the deputy county magistrate with the least qualifications, could surpass other veteran deputy county magistrates to become members of the evaluation team.

After Lu Chen learned of this, he found Jiang Hang and said, "Secretary, don't you need to do this, right?" ”

Jiang Hang first said that this was reminded by Minister Yu, and then walked up to Lu Chen and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Lu County, I was negligent, I'm sorry." ”
