In this way, the matter of neighboring counties declaring national poverty-stricken counties was decided at the county magistrate's office meeting. Although Dong Yong put forward different opinions, the minority obeyed the majority, the overall situation was decided, and Dong Yong was helpless.

It was from this moment that Dong Yong felt that he was instantly isolated. Sun Shengjun, his original political ally, also quietly turned around and parted ways with him.

In the current county government team, in addition to Gong Hanlin, who was "assigned" to study at the Party School of the Provincial Party Committee, Peng Yuanzheng is the mainstay, Li Mingran, Yan Hua, and Guo Wei are all Peng Yuanzheng's absolute henchmen, and Ning Xiaoling and Sun Shengjun are also gradually leaning towards a neutral position, and only Dong Yong is the opposition.

After the meeting, the news spread in the county, which also caused some controversy. A large number of cadres are reluctant to let the county wear the hat of a poor county, feeling that this is a smear of the county's image. This kind of voice is getting higher and higher, and naturally it has reached the ears of Peng Yuanzheng and several county government leaders.

Yan Hua, as the deputy county magistrate in charge of this work, was unhappy when he heard this voice, and openly and semi-openly made a fire on several occasions.

In the morning, Peng Yuanzheng was in the office to review the draft of his speech sent by Huo Guangming to participate in the county's party and government organs work style and efficiency promotion conference tomorrow morning (April 2), and Yan Hua came to the door.

"Sister Yan, please take a seat." Peng Yuanzheng smiled and waved his hand, "Something?" ”

"County Magistrate Peng, the atmosphere in the county has been very unhealthy recently, and many people have been talking and talking nonsense behind our backs about our declaration of a national-level poverty-stricken county-the next step will be to conduct a public opinion survey in the county, and if we don't unify our thinking as soon as possible, I'm afraid there will be mistakes." Yan Hua frowned and said loudly, "At tomorrow's conference, did you specifically emphasize this matter?" To put it seriously, whoever chirps crookedly behind his back and affects the county's declaration will be held responsible! ”

Peng Yuanzheng smiled. "Sister Yan, don't get too angry, there's no need. Some are short-sighted and vain. I expected that. Don't worry, they will talk about it for a few days, and it will slowly stop, if they really come up to conduct unannounced visits and evaluations, no one should openly stand up and work against the county. ”

Peng Yuanzheng said calmly. In fact, that's exactly what happened.

If you declare or not, the power is in the hands of the county. Ordinary government officials have a different view. It's normal to talk about it twice in private. This kind of thing, after a few days of discussion, will pass, and no one will really jump out to act as a "bird".

"Of course, I'll talk about it at tomorrow's meeting." Peng Yuanzheng smiled, "How should you submit the materials and how to submit them, don't pay attention to these gossips." According to the information I received. This time, the examination and approval will be very fast, and it is estimated that it will be reported to the State Council at the end of April and early May, if everything goes well. It can be rated at the end of May or early June. At that time, we will receive the first batch of special poverty alleviation funds of up to 5 million yuan for the first time, and we can count on this fund for the expansion and maintenance of the main roads in the county. ”

Yan Hua let out a sigh of relief, looked at Peng Yuanzheng deeply and nodded, "Okay, I'll be deaf for a time and turn a deaf ear." ”

"Then you're busy, I'll go back first." After Yan Hua finished speaking, he turned his head and left.

Because of this declaration, the time given by the city is very tight. It is necessary to complete the summary of all basic materials within a week, and then report to the province after the city has passed the review, and the province will report to the capital after the review.

Later, Peng Yuanzheng learned that since 1986, the state again approved and declared the national-level poverty-stricken counties in 1994, and in this large-scale declaration. There are only two counties approved in the entire Jiangbei Province, one is a neighboring county and the other is Zhu County in Zelin City.

Most of the national-level poverty-stricken counties are from the southwest, northwest, and poor areas of the old and young or ethnic minority areas, and as a relatively economically developed province in China, there are not many eligible counties in Jiangbei Province. …,

As soon as Yan Hua left, Guo Weiquan came. Guo Weiquan has communicated with the people of Xincheng Industry and Trade in private, and the other party agreed to invest in the county and complete the construction of the project in strict accordance with the county's plan.

However, how to terminate the cooperation with Guangming Urban Construction Company and expel Guangming Company without causing a storm is a big problem for Guo Weiquan.

The county wants to change investors, and Li Huoran and his son are of course unwilling to quit. Because this is their only chance to open up the market situation in Xin'an City, if they lose this opportunity, it will be difficult for them to enter the Xin'an market in the future. Guo Weiquan talked with Li Long for an afternoon yesterday, but nothing came of it, and Li Long's attitude was very tough.

Seeing that Guo Weiquan's expression was a little dignified and gloomy, Peng Yuanzheng smiled and said, "Old Guo, this hard bone is not easy to gnaw, right?" ”

"Hey......" Guo Weiquan sighed and said, "County Magistrate Peng, this is not only a hard bone, but also a thorn in the head. Li Long clinged to the contracts and agreements, and shouted that he would go to the city to complain about our administrative violations and ask the county to protect the legitimate and legitimate rights and interests of their investors......"

"Agreements?" Peng Yuanzheng sneered when he heard this, grabbed a copy of the text of the project construction agreement signed by the county government and Guangming Urban Construction Company from his desk, turned to the supplementary explanation on the last page, pointed to the last point and said loudly: "Lao Guo, you see, the agreement is clear in black and white: if the investor violates the law, rules or other violations of the county's rules and regulations and project planning in the process of project operation and construction, the county government has the right to terminate the cooperation with the enterprise at any time, and all the consequences shall be borne by the enterprise itself." ”

Guo Weiquan was stunned, leaned over and glanced at it, and then smiled bitterly: "County Magistrate Peng, although there are terms and conditions in advance, I estimate that this rogue company will not pay attention to this stubble at all." ”

"I can't help them!" A sneer flashed at the corner of Peng Yuanzheng's mouth, and he waved his hand indifferently and said: "Don't worry, you continue to talk to him, directly show the attitude of the county, and let him make trouble if he wants to make trouble!" I'm just afraid he won't make trouble! ”

Guo Weiquan let out a sigh of relief, "Cheng, I'll talk to him again." Let's have a showdown. ”

……

The work style and efficiency promotion conference of the party and government organs in neighboring counties.

Except for Han Wei, the secretary of the county party committee, who did not attend, and Gong Hanlin, the nominal county magistrate, who studied in the province, all the members of the standing committee of the county party committee and several members of the major team were present. Of course, only the members of the Standing Committee of the county party committee are qualified to take the rostrum.

The meeting was presided over by Ouyang Tao, deputy secretary of the county party committee, Gu Chunxiang, member of the Standing Committee of the county party committee and secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, made a special report, and finally Peng Yuanzheng delivered a speech.

"Next, I invite Peng Yuanzheng, deputy secretary of the county party committee and executive deputy county magistrate, to make an important speech on behalf of the county party committee and county government, and everyone is welcome." As soon as Ouyang Tao's words fell, the applause on the field was thunderous.

Now Peng Yuanzheng is the de facto "helmsman" of the neighboring county, because the situation in the neighboring county has gradually stabilized and is on the right track of development, Han Wei's focus of work began to shift back to the city, except for particularly important matters, basically no longer interfere in the county's work.

Peng Yuanzheng stood up and bowed to the audience, and said loudly: "Comrades, entrusted by Secretary Han, on behalf of the county party committee and the county government, I would like to make a few comments on the construction of work style and efficiency. ”

"This year is a key year for the county to deepen reform and promote economic development, and it is also a real year of development for our neighboring counties. We have promoted project construction and investment attraction, accelerated the process of urbanization, increased policy support for farmers and rural areas, and guided the peasant masses to shake off poverty and become rich...... In this context, the county party committee and county government resolutely implemented the annual ...... of the work style and efficiency construction activities of the party and government organs"

"In the process of carrying out the construction of style and efficiency, the majority of party members and cadres have a stronger sense of service, more and more implementation efforts, more and more innovation vitality, the county's government environment has been continuously optimized, and the image of cadres is getting better and better. The county has a strong atmosphere for promoting the construction of work style and efficiency, and a number of advanced individuals and advanced units have emerged.........,

"We must firmly establish the consciousness that style is productivity and efficiency is competitiveness, everyone stresses efficiency, grasps efficiency everywhere, and creates efficiency in everything, so as to effectively promote higher approval efficiency, lower administrative fees, and faster project construction; Several sets of team offices in the county have given full play to their exemplary role, strengthened supervision and supervision, and driven the county's party and government organs to further change their work style......"

Peng Yuanzheng spoke very quickly, and he ended his speech in about 10 minutes after the 20-minute speech, and then the conversation changed sharply.

"I would like to take the opportunity of today's meeting to say two more words, and I hope that comrades will listen carefully."

Peng Yuanzheng waved his hand, and his voice suddenly raised an octave: "Recently, the county is applying for a national-level poverty-stricken county, and I have heard some different opinions. Many comrades believe that our declaration of poverty-stricken counties is to smear the image of the county, and there are many discussions behind our backs...... Here, I would like to ask you three questions. ”

"First: Is the neighboring county a poor county? In the past few decades, neighboring counties have ranked first in the city in all aspects, and our per capita GDP is even less than one-fifth of that of Xin'an District. We have almost no industrial base, and our county seat is from south to north, on foot, in a straight line in less than half an hour. In the county seat, there is a hospital, a high school, a junior high school, 4 elementary schools, and a department store...... It's all we have. ”

"We have almost nothing but basic utilities and units. Outside the county seat, the situation in rural areas is even more difficult to describe in words. The comrades here should be able to see it when they go to the countryside, and you should know better than me. If a county like ours can't be called a poor county, is there still a poor county in the country? ”

"Some people may say that there are still many poor and backward areas that are poorer and more backward than us. Yes, that's true. But why don't you go back and compare yourself with the rich and developed regions? What an incomparably huge gap, comrades! It hurts to think of this gap! (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
