Chapter 329: Returning Home
Day by day, Uncle Gen spent a week with the anxiety of being promoted, and finally when he went to work on Monday, the staff of the Political Examination Bureau came to the Immigration Bureau again to visit, this visit was different from the previous times, and it was personally led by a deputy director of the Political Examination Bureau.
It can be seen from the deputy director personally leading the team that Uncle Lao Gen is afraid that he is going to be promoted, and sure enough, as everyone expected, the deputy director first praised and affirmed the work of all the staff when he arrived at the Immigration Bureau, and then took out the report summarized by the Political Review Bureau after investigation to praise Uncle Gen personally.
Everything is going according to the procedure, and after the praise, there is almost no suspense to read out Uncle Laogen's promotion report, and according to the investigation and decision of the Political Review Bureau, Uncle Laogen is appointed as the mayor of Hong Kong.
Although there is a governor above the mayor, the power of the mayor is also quite large, and in Hong Kong, which has been restructured from an army officer to an overseas consular municipal administrative unit, the governor is not directly involved in the management of local civil affairs, but is entrusted to the mayor.
The role of the governor is more inclined to the overall management of the deployment of military forces in the entire region, as well as the construction of economic development and many other matters, and the main responsibility of the mayor is to manage civil affairs, as well as the government's investment and immigration tasks, and the local security environment.
Although the position of this mayor is a little different from that of mayors in other cities in China, it is still slightly higher in terms of rights, after all, in other cities, except for Xiao Baitu, the mayor of Christmas Island, no one else has the right to participate in the right to participate in the military beat.
For the first time, the domestic government gave a person other than the public the right to decide to mobilize the military, which can be regarded as a great progress and reform, although to a large extent, the proposal put forward by Uncle Lao Gen can be adopted at all, but it is also an invisible progress.
With this, it can be regarded as laying a firm foundation for the reform of local officials among immigrants for more rights in the future.
Transferred to Hong Kong as the mayor, this can be said to be a return to his hometown. Because Uncle Lao Gen represents the Australian government's officials in Hong Kong anyway, the Ming officials will still abide by the etiquette when they see it, which makes many people very envious.
However, envy is envy, many people in the Immigration Bureau are still thinking about another issue, the vacated position of deputy director should be held, after all, it has not been announced now, especially the section-level cadres under several deputy directors, from the perspective of the order, they are the most likely to become the successors of the deputy director.
Now that there is a vacant position, everyone wants to go up, after all, the difference between the deputy director and the section chief is still very big. There is a double difference in wages alone, not to mention the vanity that other levels of respect bring to oneself.
According to past experience, all the high-ranking political examination bureaus will generally listen to his suggestions on who will take over their positions, and this time it is the same, the political examination bureau will definitely listen to Uncle Lao Gen's suggestions, which is one of the important criteria for the promotion of cadres by the political examination bureau.
So after being promoted, several section chiefs and deputy sections were busy congratulating, and kept saying congratulations and congratulations, saying that they were going to see off Director Gen.
Uncle Lao Gen naturally knows what everyone means. At this time, having a good relationship with themselves can be said to be related to whether they can go to the next level, but Uncle Gen, who has experience in this situation, will generally refuse to offend people, and as for who to recommend, he will evaluate each candidate according to the facts, and the final choice is still determined by the staff of the Political Review Bureau.
At the end of the day's work. Uncle Gen's handover will also be completed within a week, and after the handover, he will also go to Hong Kong to take office, which can be said to be both happy and a little reluctant, and the child is only eight months old. I definitely can't stand the bumps on the sea this way, so I can only go to the post by myself.
To say that I am happy, I can be regarded as returning to my hometown this time. Returning to Daming is also a return to his hometown, at least he can use his identity to return to his hometown to pay tribute.
Uncle Gen, who has become an official, actually still has some hope in his heart that the old people can see his differences, after all, people have a certain amount of showing off in their hearts, and they have a bad life, and they hope that those who once looked down on themselves will see that they are now better than them.
At that time, Lao Gen's family was the poorest in the village, and even his daughter-in-law ran away because of his poverty, which was a huge blow to him at that time, and he vowed to get ahead, but the reality was too cruel and not as he thought.
Until he was over half a hundred years old, he still lived a life with his face to the loess and his back to the sky like his ancestors, until he escaped from the disaster and went to Australia, and his life changed completely.
In order to celebrate his promotion, Uncle Lao Gen deliberately went to the vegetable market to buy a few catties of braised pork and went home, ready to celebrate with his daughter-in-law, after all, it is not easy for more than half a hundred people to be such a big official.
Before others arrived at home, the daughter-in-law had already heard the news from the neighbor who also worked in the government department to report the news in advance, so at this time she also made a big table full of dishes and called the goddaughter mother and son over to celebrate.
"Yumei is here, it seems that you already know the news, I just bought some braised meat from the vegetable market and came back, it just so happens that Yumei is also there, I will bring some back to eat later." As soon as I opened the door, I saw my daughter-in-law and goddaughter sitting in the living room, talking and laughing.
Hearing Uncle Lao Gen's words, Lao Gen's daughter-in-law also said vigorously, "Yes, bring some back to eat, we can't eat so much at home." "Uncle Lao Gen's family is a relative of Yumei in Australia, so they are naturally very cordial, and there is no idea of small belly chicken intestines and so on.
"Dad, you can only go back to Daming alone this time, although you have been promoted, but after all, you and your mother have to live separately, I think you can ask for instructions to let you serve in China." Yumei has always been considerate, and she can be said to be genuinely caring for her godfather, saying that her eight-month-old brother also needs to be taken care of, and I am afraid that it is quite inconvenient for her godmother to take care of it alone.
"Yumei, how can this matter be bargained, I don't know how many people want to go, the two-year term is the least, I think, after I leave, you will help me come and live with your mother, the two of them can take care of each other."
Uncle Lao Gen also had his own thoughts at this time, not that he was reluctant to take that official position, but his eight-month-old son also needed him to serve as the mayor, so no matter how Yumei persuaded him, he would go, and Yumei was finally persuaded by him to move to his own house.
