Chapter 86: Confrontation
In fact, a few days ago, Hong Xianguo knew that Lin Yuanfang had won the gold medal at the New York World Architecture Festival, and when a reporter from Xinhua News Agency wanted to come over to interview Lin Yuanfang, he had the idea of letting Lin Yuanfang go to the Planning Office of the New City Management Committee to be the director. It's just that at that time, considering that Lin Yuanfang was too young, twenty-three years old, and had just been working for three years, although he said that he had outstanding ability, his qualifications were indeed too shallow, and he was placed in the position of director of the Planning Office of the New Urban District Management Committee, would it not be enough to convince the public? Although the position of the director of the new urban planning office is actually only equivalent to a unit-level cadre, the power in his hands is not inferior to that of the county's section-level bureau chiefs. The planning of the 15-square-kilometer new urban area is in the hands of the director of this planning office! For those big cities, it is not for nothing to be a unit-level cadre at the age of 23, or even a department-level cadre at the age of 23. But it's different for a small county like Binan County. The more you go to the grassroots level, the fewer opportunities you have for promotion. If you go to the ministries, commissions, offices, and bureaus in the county, as well as the townships and towns below, which of the middle-level cadres with the name of section chief is actually a unit-level cadre who is not in their thirties or forties? Even in their fifties, they are about to retire, and there are many people who have just mixed up with a cadre with real power at the stock level. In this case, although Hong Xianguo admires Lin Yuanfang very much, he still has some concerns about arranging for him to serve as the director of the Planning Office of the Xincheng District Management Committee. Although if he insisted on arranging it this way, the others would not say anything, but they would definitely have some thoughts in their hearts.
Although Hong Xianguo admires Lin Yuanfang, he is not willing to let others have ideas for Lin Yuanfang for no reason.
As a mature leader, when doing something, you must weigh the pros and cons and consider the overall situation. Let's see what benefits this matter can bring to Binan County, and what benefits it can bring to him personally. If you rashly upset some of the political ecological balance in the county just because you admire someone, this is definitely not what a mature leader should do.
But now it's different.
Lin Yuanfang's deeds were included in the Xinhua News Agency, and Zhao Sancai, secretary of the provincial party committee, made personal instructions. At this time, Hong Xianguo's promotion of Lin Yuanfang is not only allowed in terms of conditions, but also necessary.
With the instructions of Zhao Sancai, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, this Shang Fang sword, Hong Xianguo is enough to block everyone's mouths. And the Zhongzhou City Urban Construction Bureau quickly came over to ask for someone, which also sounded the alarm for Hong Xianguo. Of course, he understands that the Zhongzhou Urban Construction Bureau is not interested in Lin Yuanfang's planning and design talents, but the political benefits contained in Lin Yuanfang. What attaches importance to talents, and introduces them exceptionally, these can all be turned into political capital and play a role at a critical moment.
And once Lin Yuanfang left, Binan County became the loser in this talent war. If a soil that can produce international architectural design masters, why can't it retain international architectural design masters?
Hong Xianguo quickly adjusted his strategy, he not only wanted to transfer Lin Yuanfang to the Xincheng District Management Committee, but also went one step further and was exceptionally promoted to deputy director of the Xincheng District Management Committee. Of course, compared with the director of the planning office of the management committee, letting the 23-year-old Lin Yuanfang serve as the deputy director of the management committee will cause criticism. But because of the instructions of Zhao Sancai, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Hong Xianguo's promotion of Lin Yuanfang is not untargeted, and this move of attaching importance to talents and promoting Lin Yuanfang will bring huge political benefits to Binan County and Hong Xianguo himself. What are the criticisms compared to the enormous political benefits?
After talking to Lin Yuanfang, Hong Xianguo came to the conclusion that this young man was politically mature, had a firm position, and was a good seedling that could be cultivated, so he made up his mind completely and decided to let Lin Yuanfang serve as the deputy director of the Xincheng District Management Committee.
Of course, the deputy director of the Xincheng District Management Committee is at the deputy section level and belongs to the county management cadres, and the appointment must be discussed and approved by the Standing Committee of the county party committee. But Hong Xianguo is not worried about this, he is the leader of the county party committee, as long as he decides the matter, can the Standing Committee not pass it? Hasn't the cadre problem always been like this? Do you decide on the outcome and then start from scratch on the program?
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Standing Committee of the county party committee was convened on time in the small conference room of the county party committee. The supporting funds for the construction of the new urban area will be in place for the New Year, and the construction of our new urban area will be put on the agenda, but the strength of the new urban area in urban construction planning is a little weak. ”
The proposal seemed sudden, and the Standing Committee members were not prepared. But they looked at each other, but no one spoke. Because everyone knows that although this proposal was put forward by He Luming, the head of the county party committee, it was actually the intention of Hong Xianguo, the number one leader. The number one leader in the Standing Committee has always been like this, letting others make their voices heard, and then affirming their own voices, so as to achieve procedural perfection.
"Yes, the planning for the construction of the new urban area needs to be strengthened." Hong Xianguo nodded and glanced at the venue, "Our Binan is now a national demonstration site for the construction of small towns, and the whole country is staring at us. If we also do something about the North Horse, Longshan Niu, Luobei a bunch of big cigarette butts, and the four major teams of Jiannan, I have no way to explain to Secretary Tian of the Municipal Party Committee and Secretary Zhao of the Provincial Party Committee! ”
Hearing Hong Xianguo say the famous four sentences, everyone in the venue burst out laughing. Pibei City, Longshan County, Luobei County, and Jiannan County, like Pinan County, are all under the jurisdiction of Tianyang City. These four sentences are the symbols of these four counties. Bibei City is a soaring copper horse, Longshan County is a golden bull with hooves, Luobei County is a dozen uneven cylinders facing the sky, and Jiannan County is two hands holding up a round ball. Because the design is relatively inferior and looks extremely ugly, the common people vividly attribute the symbols and buildings of these four counties to: "Beibei Ma, Longshan Niu, Luobei a bunch of big cigarette butts, and Jiannan four major teams top a ball." In the end, it became a joke among the people and officialdom.
The Standing Committee members all laughed, but Hong Xianguo didn't laugh, he picked up the teacup and took a sip of water, and waited for the laughter to fall in the venue, then he looked at He Luming and asked: "Director Luming, I think your proposal is very good and necessary, I don't know if you have a suitable candidate in mind?" ”
Although the Standing Committee members drank tea and smoked, they pricked up their ears at this time. A deputy director of the management committee who holds the real power of urban construction planning, this position is very important.
"I think Lin Yuanfang, a young cadre of the Planning Bureau, is good." He Luming said: "I won't say how Lin Yuanfang behaved during the heavy rainstorm more than two months ago, and all the Standing Committee members know it. A few days ago, one of Lin Yuanfang's planning and design plans won the only gold medal in the planning and design category at the World Architecture Festival in New York, USA. This is also the only gold medal won by our country over the years. This is full of illustration of Comrade Lin Yuanfang's talent in planning and design. Therefore, I think that by his appointment to the Xincheng District Management Committee to be responsible for urban construction planning, he will definitely be able to enhance the urban taste of the Xincheng District and expand the influence of our Binan County across the country! Of course, this is just my personal opinion, whether it is suitable or not, it is up to Secretary Hong to decide. ”
As soon as He Luming finished speaking, Zhang Changhe, the Minister of Propaganda, also said: "Yes, I also know that Lin Yuanfang won the gold medal at the International World Architecture Festival in New York. A few days ago, the Xinhua News Agency sent two reporters to our county to conduct an exclusive interview with Lin Yuanfang. In the history of our county, it is very rare for a Xinhua News Agency reporter to come and conduct a news interview with an individual. ”
"When Minister Zhang said this, I remembered that there was one more thing I wanted to announce here." Hong Xianguo stretched out his hand and took out a copy of the Xinhua News Agency's internal reference approved by Zhao Sancai, secretary of the provincial party committee, and shook it in his hand, "This news interview is on the Xinhua News Agency's internal reference, and the title is: International design events flying out of a small county town -- a record of Lin Yuanfang, a young cadre of the Binan County Planning Bureau. Comrade Zhao Sancai, secretary of the provincial party committee, also made a four-character instruction on this internal reference, calling on the cadres and masses of the province to learn from Comrade Lin Yuanfang. This is the internal reference, let's take a look. As he spoke, he handed the internal reference in his hand to Liu Hongwei beside him.
Since Hong Xianguo got this copy of the internal reference for the first time, including the county magistrate Liu Hongwei, he didn't see it, he took it and read it carefully, and handed it to Deng Guohua, deputy secretary of the party and the masses opposite. Deng Guohua saw it relatively simply, and then passed it on.
Hong Xianguo got up and went to the toilet to give the Standing Committee members a time to think.
Ten minutes later, Hong Xianguo came in from outside, sat on a leather chair with a wide band, looked at everyone and said, "How is it?" You've read it all, right? What are your thoughts on Director Luming's proposal? ”
"Squad leader, Comrade Lin Yuanfang is indeed a relatively good comrade, but he is younger, his qualifications are shallow, and he has no experience in leading a department. Liu Hongwei, the county magistrate, said slowly: "Of course, Director Lu Ming's proposal is also very good. The urban planning of the new urban area also needs to be strengthened. In my personal opinion, can you first put Comrade Lin Yuanfang in the position of director of the New Urban Planning Office for two years, make a transition, and wait for him to accumulate a certain amount of work experience before being further promoted? In this way, Comrade Lin Yuanfang's expertise in construction planning can be brought into play, and some side effects brought about by his lack of youth and experience can be faced......
