During the Spring Festival of the seventh year, Zhou Peiming spent it in the hospital.

The hospital had long found out that he had serious cardiovascular problems, but Zhou Peiming insisted on going to work. Baozhou City was established, 86 years of the province's economic aggregate statistics, Baozhou City jumped to the fourth place, second only to Daning City, Hongyang City and Nanyun City in the south of N Province, Zhou Peiming and Yan Yucheng were affirmed and praised by the leaders of the provincial party committee and the provincial government.

Zhou Peiming was very pleased to achieve this achievement, Xu was to achieve the goal of achieving it, and suddenly lost his spiritual support, and his body, which was already seriously overdrawn, could no longer support it and collapsed.

Long Tiejun was entrusted by Luo Zirong and Liao Qingkai to make a special trip to the Provincial People's Hospital to visit Zhou Peiming, and personally came forward to arrange for Zhou Peiming's lover and daughter to be admitted to the Provincial People's Hospital and take care of them nearby.

"Pei Ming, rest assured, Secretary Zirong and Governor Qingkai care about you very much."

Long Tiejun sat in front of Zhou Peiming's bed and put on a posture of talking to old friends.

Zhou Peiming glanced at Long Tiejun and smiled faintly: "Secretary Long, you are also old." ”

Alone in the secret room, ten years of partners, Zhou Peiming has no scruples when he speaks.

"Isn't it, the hair is all gray ......"

Long Tiejun stroked his white and black hair and let out a sigh of emotion.

"As for where I'm going from here. How does the provincial party committee plan to arrange it? ”

Zhou Peiming asked bluntly.

In his current physical condition. It is bound to be difficult to return to the post of secretary of the Baozhou Municipal Party Committee. Not only is that irresponsible. It is also irresponsible to him personally.

"This has not yet been discussed by the Standing Committee. But before I come. Secretary Zirong and Governor Qingkai both have this meaning. After you recover and are discharged from the hospital. Just stay in the provincial capital. After all, the medical conditions and living conditions here. It's better than Baozhou City. ”

Zhou Peiming nodded.

This result. He had expected it a long time ago.

If he does not suffer from this illness and retires after serving a full term, with the impressive achievements made by Baozhou City in recent years, the province will arrange a vice provincial and ministerial-level idle post for him to retire for the rest of his life. Now that he suddenly fell ill, this result came early.

For him personally, it doesn't matter.

After rolling in the officialdom for a lifetime, staying up and being haggard, staying on the "throne" of the secretary of the municipal party committee for two more years and two years less is actually not much difference. Strictly speaking, Zhou Peiming is just very different from Long Tiejun's personality, and the two are the same in the general direction of "serving as an official and benefiting one party".

After lying on the hospital bed for so many days, Zhou Peiming re-examined many things, and he understood them.

"Who will be the secretary of the Baozhou Municipal Party Committee?"

Zhou Peiming asked casually.

Long Tiejun smiled and cross-examined, "What about your opinion?" ”

Zhou Peiming smiled: "Actually, I really asked redundant questions, the provincial party committee should have made a decision." ”

Long Tiejun laughed, and did not beat around the bush: "Yes, during this time, Comrade Yucheng presided over the work of the municipal party committee instead of you, and it was still in an orderly manner." ”

……

After Zhou Peiming, Yan Yucheng succeeded as the secretary of the municipal party committee in order, which has basically become a foregone conclusion. But who will take over as mayor has become the focus of everyone's attention.

In the past few years, the development of Baozhou City has been obvious to all, and the changes in Baozhou officialdom are also particularly frequent. In a few years, there have been three secretaries and three commissioners (mayors), and in detail, every change seems to be Yan Yucheng's further step. From the executive deputy commissioner to the deputy secretary to the commissioner, it was fast, but every step was extremely solid, and almost no one raised objections.

Now it's this cowhide coaxing guy again, and as soon as he sits on the throne of the secretary of the municipal party committee, others can only stare dryly.

As for the suddenly vacated mayoral position, several of the most promising candidates unexpectedly chose a "calm and calm" attitude. After the defeat of the previous two commissioners' "battles", Liu Wenju and Kang Rui no longer seem to take this matter to heart, and during the Spring Festival, they only routinely went to the homes of the leaders of the provinces they were familiar with to visit, and did not show too much enthusiasm.

As for Yan Yucheng and his father, they still took Yan Fei and me to visit Mr. Zhou, Long Tiejun, Bai Jianming and Liao Qingkai. In and out of the conversation, the conversation is all about the parents, and rarely involves the current political situation in Baozhou City.

Naturally, Liao Qingkai was very concerned about the progress of the "pilot reform of the bankruptcy and reorganization of state-owned enterprises."

At the beginning of December last year, the state promulgated the "Enterprise Bankruptcy Law (Trial)", which can be regarded as providing a legal basis for the bankruptcy of enterprises. However, the "Bankruptcy Law" only has 43 articles, and the content is relatively simple, which only stipulates the general process of enterprise bankruptcy, and does not have much guiding significance for guiding the reorganization of bankrupt enterprises.

To put it bluntly, the state agrees to go bankrupt, but you have to figure out how to go after bankruptcy.

Just by looking at the word "trial", we can see how difficult it was to be born of this law, and it can even be said that it was born in opposition. It is said that during the drafting of the "Bankruptcy Law," a considerable number of central leaders sharply criticized this matter, believing that it was contrary to the basic policy of the state.

And Liao Qingkai, as the official in charge of a province and the feudal territory, is more concerned about the actual effect than the procedure.

After an enterprise goes bankrupt, a large number of workers are laid off and not resettled well, which will lead to very serious social problems.

"At present, Comrade Jincai is mainly responsible for this work."

Yan Yucheng was very atmospheric, and he didn't hide it in front of the governor. It seems that he is the leader of the leading group.

Liao Qingkai looked at his father.

Dad pondered for a moment and said: "Governor Liao, at present, we have selected six state-owned enterprises with operational difficulties as pilot sites for reform, including four industrial and mining enterprises, namely the Municipal Agricultural Machinery Factory, the Municipal Mining Machinery Factory, the Municipal Tool Factory and the First Cast Pipe Factory. In the commercial field, the city department store is selected, and the other is the state-owned Wufeng Forest Farm......"

Liao Qingkai nodded: "Well, the selection of places has a certain representativeness. ”

"At present, the city agricultural machinery factory we have adopted the way of contracting land, by Tengfei Industrial Corporation under a branch of the factory director Liu Zhaomin with the contract, signed a three-year contract, the production of small agricultural machinery and construction machinery, the wages of retired workers are borne by the factory itself, the combination of laid-off workers, in accordance with the principle of voluntariness, willing to buy out, according to the length of service to pay off the buyout costs, to find their own way out. If you are unwilling to buy out, you will be paid 50 percent of the living expenses according to the basic salary, and you can arrange to return to work after the factory is in operation......"

Liao Qingkai nodded again: "The director of this contract is very courageous!" ”

Dad didn't have a good comment.

There is no other reason, Liu Zhaomin is my second cousin, my father's nephew.

Fortunately, Liao Qingkai did not continue to dwell on this matter and asked, "What about other companies?" ”

"The mining machinery factory adopted the method of bankruptcy and reorganization, and a new leadership class was elected by the workers

Deal with inventory products, downsize, close unnecessary office fronts for rent, and take some cash to resume production. In terms of municipal finance, it will also give some support. Some of the personnel have been streamlined and arranged to run sales, and they have signed perennial supply and marketing contracts with two coal mines under the Baozhou Mining Bureau......"

Dad came one by one, like a few treasures.

"The method taken by the city tool factory is to associate with Xiangyang County Hongqi Township Hardware Tool Factory, Hongqi Township Tool Factory is a collective enterprise, which has been very prosperous in recent years, the market is smooth, the quality of the leather is good, and the user satisfaction is very high. This joint venture with the City Tool Factory is mainly to expand production with the help of the existing machinery and equipment and technical strength of the City Tool Factory. The city tool factory does not need to invest cash, only fixed assets into shares, Hongqi Township hardware tool factory will invest funds, send management personnel to take over the operation and management of the city tool factory. Both parties will share dividends in proportion to their capital contributions. The time of the joint operation is also tentatively set for three years, and if the joint operation is not carried out in the future, it will be split again. The main responsible comrades of the original city tool factory were transferred back to the city light industry bureau to rearrange their work, so as not to affect the operation and management of the new factory......"

Liao Qingkai listened very seriously, and suddenly found that Yan Yucheng seemed to have something to say, so he smiled and said, "Comrade Yucheng, if you have anything to say...... Come on, Xiaojun, Feifei, eat sugar, you're welcome......"

Hehe, it's hard for Comrade Governor to remember that it's the New Year, Xiaojun is still there, and Fei Fei is already a little impatient.

Fortunately, the little girl also knows that she can't "leave early" as a guest at the governor's house.

Yan Yucheng said with a smile: "Actually, it doesn't matter, I'm thinking, should our cadre system also be changed, like the tool factory, these responsible cadres, poor management, will a good tool factory tossed half dead, coming, or the original position unchanged, just a change of unit......"

Liao Qingkai took out a cigarette and lit it, and said slowly: "This is a system problem, and it is not easy to change." The tool factory is not doing well, and you can't blame a few of them completely, which has a big environmental impact......"

Yan Yucheng said: "I know this, that is, I feel emotional. Institutional reform is a long way to go......"

"Yes, there is a long way to go!"

Governor Liao was swallowing clouds and spitting fog, but Mrs. Liao said on the side: "Qingkai, be conscious, this is the seventh cigarette today, and it will be ration......ed soon."

The others were stunned.

Liao Qingkai smiled bitterly: "No way, the family is strictly controlled!" ”

Everyone laughed.

According to the resume, Liao Qingkai is 60 years old this year, and it is reasonable for Mrs. Liao to care about his body and control the amount of cigarettes.

Liao Qingkai took two puffs, reluctantly extinguished the cigarette butt, and said to his father: "Comrade Jincai, go on." ”

Mrs. Liao handed him tea in time.

Dad put away his smile and said: "A cast pipe factory has now turned losses into profits and entered a virtuous circle......

Liao Qingkai glanced at Yan Yucheng and said with a smile: "Comrade Yucheng, the tiger father has no dogs!" ”

Although Yan Yucheng is magnificent, he naturally has to be humble when he praises Comrade Governor like this.

"Governor Liao, you can't afford such a compliment, the child's family accidentally hit it, and it can't be really ......"

Liao Qingkai laughed and said, "You Comrade Yucheng, the feudal patriarchal style is quite serious, don't you want to underestimate young people." ”

The man laughed again.

Yan Fei and I glanced at Yan Yucheng and smiled. Yan Feidi's little hand quietly reached over and twisted it with my hand.

Mrs. Liao sat across from us, noticed this detail, smiled slightly, and interjected and asked, "Xiaojun, how old is this year?" ”

Hearing Mrs. Liao's sudden question, I quickly straightened up and replied, "Eighteen, studying in the Department of Chinese at South China University." ”

"South China University, okay, key university...... What about Fei Fei? ”

Fei Fei blushed, hurriedly withdrew her hand again, and replied in a proper manner: "Auntie, I am nineteen years old this year and am studying in the Fine Arts Department of Ningqing University. ”

Mrs. Liao smiled and said to Liao Qingkai: "Qingkai, look at these two children, how compatible are they?" ”

Liao Qingkai nodded again and again, with a smile on his face: "Sure enough, it's a golden boy and a jade girl." ”

Fei Fei and I were "old red", but Yan Yucheng and my father couldn't help but glance at each other, and a look of worry flashed in their eyes.

Yan Liu is too close, it is already a taboo, this time he married his children and in-laws, is he not telling the truth? Liao Qingkai has such a vision, how can he not know their thoughts, just smile and laugh, and he will not break it.

"Jincai, the four I just mentioned are all factories, that department store, what are you going to do with it?"

"We plan to lease the management rights of the department store as a whole, and Jiangkou Yichang Real Estate Co., Ltd. intends to take over, re-expand and decorate, and promise to give priority to the employment of local cadres and employees of the original department store under the same conditions......"

"Jiangkou Yichang Real Estate Company? Is it the Hong Kong businessman who developed a characteristic commercial street? ”

Dad showed a look of admiration: "Exactly, Governor Liao has a lot of opportunities, and he still remembers it so clearly." ”

"Haha, don't flatter me either. This incident used to make a lot of noise, and Comrade Yucheng specially reported it, so I still have a little impression. Well, is the rent they pay enough to ensure the wages of retired workers and the payment of living expenses for laid-off workers? And how to calculate the depreciation of state-owned assets? ”

Liao Qingkai really couldn't be fooled, and he asked quite well.

"The rent is enough to guarantee the payment, the depreciation of state-owned assets, Yichang Company promised to operate for ten years, all the expansion and decoration facilities will be donated to Party A free of charge."

Liao Qingkai pondered for a while, but did not say anything, and said: "How to reform the Wufeng Forest Farm?" ”

"Wufeng Forest Farm is also a production self-help model, the initial determination of the introduction of beef and sheep breeding, as well as the planting of medicinal materials, what specific medicinal materials to plant, to wait for the provincial medicinal materials company experts to go down to investigate before deciding."

"Very good, Comrade Jincai, Comrade Yucheng, it seems that your work in the city is very down-to-earth, I am very relieved. I hope you can produce results and experience as soon as possible and promote them to the whole province. ”

Yan Yucheng and his father glanced at each other again, and their faces were happy, Liao Qingkai's words were extremely high praise.
