On the day before Teacher's Day, accompanied by Tao Dong, director of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee, Chen Mingyu went to Tongxian to take up his post.

On the way to Tong County, Chen Mingyu couldn't help but think of the fact that he came to Zhouquan to serve as deputy county magistrate a few months ago, when Song Xiaolai, deputy director of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee, sent him to take office.

However, what he didn't expect was that in Zhouquan County in the past few months, he did not show any level in the economic field, but as soon as he came to Zhouquan, he fell into the Xiting Shipyard incident, after a few months of detours, the Xiting Shipyard case finally came to an end, he just wanted to put his energy into economic development, and even had exhausted himself to formulate a five-year development plan for the development of Zhouquan County, but this plan has not yet begun to be implemented, Guo Yuancheng sent him to Tong County as a firefighting captain!

It is conceivable that after arriving in Tongxian County, he may have to focus on investigating the real cause of the car accident of his former secretary Zhou Dapeng for a long time, and if he wants to investigate this matter, it will inevitably involve power struggles, anti-gang and evil and other issues!

If you want to develop the economy, it is estimated that it will be a long time later!

Chen Mingyu is now bent on developing the economy and making some political achievements in the economic field, but he is inevitably involved in these complex struggles!

Could it be that this is the time and the fate?

In fact, Chen Mingyu also understands that since he has chosen to take the road of officialdom, he has no absolute freedom, and he can not do whatever he wants, to a large extent, it is what the superior leaders need him to do, so that he can do it, and more precisely, what his Bole needs him to do, he can do.

However, there are billions of people in this world, and how many people are truly free and can live as they want?

Tao Dong is the veteran organization minister of Qingjiang, his age is nearly fifty, and his temperament is graceful, although he has worked in the organization department all the year round and is in a high position, but Tao Dong feels very kind, unlike Song Xiaolai, who sent Chen Mingyu to Zhouquan last time, he has a stinky face throughout the whole process.

However, Tao Dong's words are not much, except for a few words of encouragement at the beginning of the meeting with Chen Mingyu, he didn't talk much along the way, and he has been closing his eyes and recuperating, and Chen Mingyu naturally doesn't want to leave Tao Dong with a mouthy impression, so he kept silent.

Therefore, the atmosphere in the car has been quite dull along the way.

It wasn't until he reached the boundary of Tongxian County that Tao Dong opened his eyes, looked at the scenery outside, and said, "Mingyu, I heard that you want Tao Yuanjing to come to Tongxian County to serve as the head of the organization and assist you in your work?" ”

Listening to Tao Dong's words, Chen Mingyu couldn't help but feel a sudden shock in his heart.

Yesterday, Chen Mingyu went to the city, and Qin Zhitao, secretary of the municipal party committee, and Guo Yuancheng, mayor of the city, talked to him separately.

Because Chen Mingyu is Guo Yuancheng's person, when Qin Zhitao talked to him, he said some official words, and Chen Mingyu naturally responded with official words, and did not put forward any requirements for Qin Zhitao, but just said that he would work hard and live up to the trust of the municipal party committee and organizations.

However, when Guo Yuancheng talked to him, he said his thoughts, mainly putting forward two requirements: first, transfer Tao Yuanjing to Tongxian County as the head of the organization; Second, after he arrives in Tong County, he will take a good look at the two cadres of the director of the county party committee office and the director of the public security bureau, if these two cadres are of the same mind as him and competent, then they will be left behind, if the two of them are not of the same mind as him, or if the work is incompetent, then they will be replaced, and he hopes that Guo Yuancheng can fully support him.

Guo Yuancheng also understood the two requests put forward by Chen Mingyu, and naturally gave Chen Mingyu an affirmative reply.

Chen Mingyu was very surprised after listening to Tao Dong's words, mainly because he did not formally apply to the Organization Department or the Municipal Party Committee, hoping that Tao Yuanjing would come to Tong County to serve as the head of the Organization Department and assist him in his work, and it was inconvenient for him to make this application, so he told Guo Yuancheng about it in private, hoping that Guo Yuancheng could operate it secretly.

Moreover, he only told Guo Yuancheng about it alone.

So, how did Tao Dong know?

At the moment when Tao Dong said this question, Chen Mingyu was both surprised and a little scared, he thought that Tao Dong was going to criticize him with this matter, but then he figured it out, it must have been Guo Yuancheng who told Tao Dong about it, and Guo Yuancheng was able to tell Tao Dong about it so quickly, which shows that the relationship between Guo Yuancheng and Tao Dong must be very unusual.

In other words, the two of them are likely to be close allies!

Thinking of this, Chen Mingyu immediately felt excited again!

If Guo Yuancheng and Tao Dong are close allies, then Guo Yuancheng's power in the city will greatly increase! It can even be said that even if he can't suppress Qin Zhitao, secretary of the municipal party committee, at least he can be on an equal footing with Qin Zhitao!

Just as Chen Mingyu worried before, as a secretary, if the organization minister is not of the same mind as him, then it will be difficult for him to control the personnel work, and if he can't even control the personnel work, then where is his prestige?

Guo Yuancheng is now Chen Mingyu's biggest backer, if Guo Yuancheng is very strong in the city, then it will naturally be a great thing for Chen Mingyu!

Although these emotions are like a roller coaster ride in Chen Mingyu's mind, in fact, this is only a short moment.

After Tao Dong asked this question, Chen Mingyu quickly responded: "Yes, Minister Tao, when the leader talked to me yesterday, the leader asked me if I had any requirements, so I mentioned this matter to the leader. ”

Chen Mingyu did not explicitly say that he mentioned this matter to Guo Yuancheng, even if he is almost certain now, the relationship between Guo Yuancheng and Tao Dong is definitely very close, but there are some things that are tacitly understood, and it is not interesting to completely say it.

Tao Dong nodded lightly and said: "Yuan Jing is also a veteran group work cadre, she has carried out her work well in Zhouquan, if she can come to Tong County, she can indeed give you a lot of help in her work, we will consider this matter carefully." ”

Chen Mingyu hurriedly said, "Thank you, Minister Tao." ”

After Tao Dong said this, he closed his mouth again and remained silent.

Chen Mingyu naturally closed his mouth very familiarly, he knew that in front of the leader, the smartest thing to do is to do what he likes, such as in front of a leader with soft ears and likes to listen to good words, then you might as well compliment the leader and pat the leader's ass just right; However, in front of a leader who doesn't like to talk, it's better not to talk too much.

After their car entered the boundary of Tong County, Chen Mingyu saw a small car parked on the side of the road, and there were many people standing next to it, looking like they were waiting one by one.

The driver slowed down and said, "Minister Tao, it's the county magistrate Ou." ”

Tao Dong frowned and said, "I said that I was not allowed to do the set that was sent to usher, but they still came." ”

After speaking, he sighed lightly and said, "Xiao Liu, pull over." ”

"Yes, Minister Tao." The driver answered, leaning the car against the men and stopped.

Tao Dong turned his head and said to Chen Mingyu again: "Mingyu, I hope you will put all your energy into work in the future, and it is better to bother less about the superficial work that will be sent to usher." ”

"Yes, Minister Tao, I remember." Chen Mingyu replied cautiously.

After the car stopped, Ou Jiquan, the magistrate of Tong County, immediately greeted him, opened the door in person, and said with a smile on his face: "Minister Tao, welcome to our Tong County to inspect the work." ”

Tao Dong got out of the car, shook hands with Ou Jiquan, and reproached: "Jiquan, didn't we emphasize it again and again in the meeting before, and we are not allowed to meet this set of borders in the future?" Why are you here again? And you still bring so many people, don't they all work? ”

Ou Jiquan, who is short and chubby, with a smile on his face, like a Maitreya Buddha, did not seem to be unhappy at all after being criticized by Tao Dong, and still said enthusiastically: "Minister Tao's lesson is that we will definitely change it in the future!" Originally, I was going to come here alone today, but when they heard that you Minister Tao was coming, they couldn't hold back one by one, and they had to go to the county border to meet you, I could stop their people, but I couldn't stop them from respecting you, so I had to bring them all over! ”

Watching Ou Jiquan's performance, Chen Mingyu, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but laugh secretly, he had been in contact with Ou Jiquan a few times before, and his impression of Ou Jiquan was not bad, he felt that Ou Jiquan was a very decent person, but he really didn't expect Ou Jiquan to be a master of sycophancy!

In fact, Chen Mingyu also has a deep understanding of the ushering in this matter.

Although the higher-level units have repeatedly said that they should not welcome and send them to the county and do not engage in the county boundary to greet them, no matter how many times the higher-level leaders say that if there are higher-level leaders who come up to inspect, these people in the units below should still greet them as they wish.

Because they all have such an idea, if they come to the county border to greet them, it is to show full respect to the superior leaders, even if they are reprimanded by the leaders on the spot, it is nothing.

However, if they are really "obedient" and don't go to the unit to greet them, maybe the leader won't say anything on the surface, but in his heart he may remember them once, thinking that they are disrespectful to themselves!

Therefore, these party and government cadres would rather be reprimanded on the spot by the leaders than let the leaders remember their mistakes in their hearts.

This kind of thing has become a subtle practice, and it cannot be changed by a certain cadre at a certain meeting.

For example, Tao Dong, maybe he really doesn't like to usher in this set, and he can also reprimand a few words in the face of his subordinates going to the county boundary to greet him. However, if a cadre from the province comes to Qingjiang to inspect, and the secretary Qin Zhitao wants to lead the four major teams and the members of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee to the border to greet him, will Tao Dong still criticize this matter? Apparently not.

Even if he doesn't want to go, he will definitely follow, because this is the rule of officialdom.

Officialdom is actually similar to a large-scale sports meeting, the first people who can participate in this sports meeting are almost all selected, outstanding people, although it is not excluded that some of them have gone through the back door and relied on relationships to participate in the games, but the absolute majority of the participants are still very good talents.

After these people are shortlisted and qualified, they must all want to get a good ranking, no matter what kind of magic power these people can exert behind them, such as they bribe judges, doping, or even modify results, but in the process of competition, on the surface, they still have to do it according to the rules of the competition.

Even if it is the son of the chairman of the organizing committee, it is impossible to take the championship without even going through the process.

Therefore, this is also in line with Chen Mingyu's previous feelings, it is impossible for people who mix in officialdom to have absolute freedom.

There are some things that you don't want to do, you don't bother to do, it's disgusting to do, but you still have to do it, and that's the rule.
