image of the government

After talking to Chen Yian on the phone, Gao Zhetang felt a sense of relief that he had never felt before. Of course, this kind of relief was not pleasant. It could even be said that his mood dropped to freezing point.

Chen Yi'an is the deputy secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and the secretary of Governor Yu Xiangyang. He and Gao Zhetang have also been friends for many years. In the sinister world of officialdom, where friendship is scarce, good friends are really precious.

Just now, Chen Yi'an reported the latest news. As for the candidate for deputy governor of Jiangdong Province, Provincial Party Committee Secretary Li Zhiguo has already chosen his candidate, and Gao Zhetang has not been shortlisted.

In the more than three years since Gao Zhetang served as director of the Jiangdong Provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, with the advancement of the reform of the state-owned assets management system, he has vigorously promoted the transformation of state-owned enterprises and revitalized old industrial bases within the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and has achieved great results, both in establishing and improving state-owned assets.

The achievements in improving the asset supervision system, strengthening the supervision of state-owned assets, accelerating the reform and development of state-owned enterprises, and promoting the structural adjustment of the state-owned economic layout are all obvious to all.

Especially on the issue of reforming state-owned enterprises, he implemented state-owned enterprise restructuring, mergers and reorganizations, divestment of non-main business and loss-making assets, and joint ventures with vigorous and resolute methods, allowing enterprises to shed their burdens and travel lightly, allowing the core state-owned assets in Jiangdong Province to maintain and increase their value.

, stimulating the vitality of state-owned enterprises.

For this reason, Mr. Qi, who was the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee at the time, praised him very much and held him in high regard. Similarly, some of his ideas and practices coincided with those of Yu Xiangyang. Later, he also made suggestions to Li Zhiguo, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee many times.

Gao Zhitang should be transferred to the province as the deputy governor in charge of industry to assist him in transforming state-owned enterprises in the province and comprehensively revitalizing state-owned enterprises in Jiangdong Province.

It stands to reason that the transition from the director of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission to the deputy governor in charge of industry is a matter of course in the political arena. However, regarding Gao Zhetang's proposal for appointment, dismissal and transfer, current Secretary Li Zhiguo has reserved his personal opinions. Regarding Governor Yu Xiangyang's proposal

He has not expressed his position, and has been pushing back and forth. He and his old partner have also used standard official language. Of course, they have not been discussed by the Standing Committee.

As the leader of the Jiangdong Provincial Team, Li Zhiguo is not unreasonable to be cautious. Gao Zhetang's practices of reducing people and increasing efficiency, diverting laid-off workers, and transferring shares of state-owned enterprises have also attracted some criticism. Some people think that it has caused unemployment among workers and the loss of state-owned assets.

Negative effects, for this reason, there is quite a bit of criticism among the provincial party committee, and some people even secretly rumored that Gao Zhetang was enriching himself while carrying out drastic state-owned enterprise asset reforms...

However, Governor Yu Xiangyang did not comment on this and laughed it off. However, he has praised the work of the Provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission in many public speeches. In private, it is clear that he cares about him, let alone mentioning it.

After the meeting of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Committee, Governor Yu Xiangyang was filled with emotion. Gao Zhetang did not pass the resolution of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Committee, which seemed a bit unexpected, but it was also reasonable.

However, the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee listed out whether Gao Zhetang is qualified for the position of deputy governor, but Yu Xiangyang disagrees with it. However, this tune has long been a foregone conclusion, so it is not easy for him to take the lead.

In fact, Gao Zhetang has very strict requirements for others and himself, and his style is extremely rigid. He is a bold and adventurous boss. Everyone in the officialdom of Jiangdong Province knows this. However, it is his style that makes people respect and fear him at the same time.

It is also easy to offend people.

At this moment, Governor Yu Xiangyang closed his eyes and leaned on the office chair in the governor's office, his brows raised, and an incomprehensible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. At the same time, the image of Gao Zhetang, tall and burly, immediately appeared in his mind.

With his handsome figure and warm and cheerful smile, Gao Zhetang's pair of myopic glasses added a touch of elegance and elegance...

Gao Zhetang is a typical workaholic in Jiangdong Province. He hates evil and hates evil. Many things fall into his hands. As long as he thinks it is right, even ten cows cannot be pulled back. Governor Yu also laughed and rebuked Gao Zhetang many times in front of others and behind the scenes.

The uncivilized "old stubborn man".

However, the term "old stubborn man" has a special meaning for the governor in Gao Zhetang. The governor has always felt that Gao Zhetang is a pioneering cadre with the courage to be the first in the world and the foresight that is different from ordinary people.

, and Gao Zhetang's "stubbornness" is also based on the general principle of organizational interests.

And Gao Zhetang's "stubbornness" has caused a lot of "trouble" to Yu Xiangyang these days, because Gao Zhetang is not only stubborn but also has a unique and unconventional style of work. This has attracted some criticism and controversy

, so some people have been whispering into Xiangqun’s ears for two years, talking about the rights and wrongs of Gao Zhetang.

What Gao Zhetang often said when he was in power was, "Comrades, my starting point is good. I don't want to offend you, let alone hurt you, but I am really anxious. Whenever I think of

There is still a lot of work waiting for us to do, and there are still so many laid-off workers who are living in difficulty, so my heart becomes very heavy, and I feel the heavy responsibility on my shoulders, and I often can't sleep."

In this way, Gao Zhetang formed a habit, which is neither good nor bad. He often liked to call his subordinates in the middle of the night to discuss matters and supervise inspection work, which made the people below him very nervous and always prepared to deal with inspections.

Therefore, the comrades below are inevitably very resentful about this. Someone once complained to a superior leader, "He himself is a workaholic. He works day and night and does not allow others to rest. It is impossible for everyone to be as energetic as him."

, Comrade Zhetang is too bossy and overbearing..."

…

Yu Xiangyang quickly recovered from his brief thoughts, but he felt a little heavier in his heart. From a personal emotional point of view, he hoped that Gao Zhetang could assist him in his work in the provincial government, but where could such a thing be?

Does he alone have the final say? Besides, in the officialdom, the top leader has always been in charge of cadres. Yu Xiangyang could not arrange the reservations of Provincial Party Committee Secretary Li Zhiguo even if he loved talents.

However, having said that, Yu Xiangyang is particularly concerned about Gao Zhetang's further matters. As long as he has the opportunity, he will want to organize a proposal. Among other things, before the special seminar on the appointment of cadres of the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee, Li Zhiguo

When the secretary communicated with him, he also made a last-ditch effort for Gao Zhetang.

"Old Li, let me clarify my personal views first. I advocate the reuse of Comrade Gao Zhetang. We must use talents in an eclectic way. When looking at a person, we must look at the mainstream. We cannot generalize and blame. Comrade Zhetang is in the state-owned assets

The work performance of the SASAC shows that he is particularly good at the operation and management of assets. In the past few years, the achievements made by the SASAC are obvious to all. Comrade Zhetang took personal political risks and insisted on operating and managing state-owned assets and optimizing and upgrading his governance philosophy.

It has been tested in practice and achieved great success, and the national ministries and commissions have also given high praise, which is proof..."

Secretary Li Zhiguo interrupted Yu Xiangyang's speech and said: "I do not deny Comrade Zhetang's achievements. Comrade Zhetang has outstanding advantages, is very enterprising and hardworking, and has a strong sense of innovation, but he also has many shortcomings. Obviously, it’s still not very mature at the moment, so let’s put it down for training for a while and then investigate for a while. I think we can consider moving to Omi City.”

Yu Xiangyang listened attentively, his brows furrowed more and more tightly, and a deep "chuan" formed between his eyebrows. His face was calm, thinking and recalling the meaning of Secretary Li Zhiguo's words.

Omi City is located in the northern part of Jiangdong Province. The Danjiang River is like a belt, passing through the city. It has fertile plains and a pleasant climate. At one time, Omi City's industry, medicine, and textiles were very developed. Many star companies were born and many famous people were cultivated. A well-known and familiar brand. Omi City is also the main grain-producing area of ​​Jiangdong Province. Industry and agriculture go hand in hand, and various economic development indicators rank among the best. The market is prosperous, and all industries are prosperous. It was once known as the engine of northern Jiangdong Province, radiating to several similar areas in the north. The urban area leads the development direction of northern Jiangdong and has an important economic status in Jiangdong Province.

Unfortunately, it did not keep up with the trend of development. Especially after the subprime mortgage crisis, many state-owned enterprises closed down one after another, foreign capital fled, and the economic growth slowed down significantly. Later, in the development plan for economic recovery, the direction was not grasped, and a lot was missed. Since then, Omi's economy has been in a slump, deteriorating year by year, and the economy is getting worse.

The Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government have attached great importance to the problem of Omi City five years ago. The Provincial Government's ten-year development plan has also been slightly tilted towards the northern region, and Omi City is the top priority of the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government. However, However, the Omi City team failed to live up to expectations, was complacent, had no sense of oppression, and lacked innovative awareness and pioneering spirit. They accepted a series of economic development strategies issued by the provincial party committee and the provincial government, but followed the plan, but failed to reverse Omi's economy. A downward trend.

Various historical problems and social conflicts broke out in a concentrated manner. The two teams of the Omi Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government were overwhelmed and unable to deal with it. However, they could not completely solve the real problems of laid-off workers from state-owned enterprises living a difficult life, complaining, and increasing collective petitions and mass incidents.

The citizens of Omi City have become specialized in petitioning in recent years. They not only petition in Omi City or Koto Province, but also go to Beijing to petition, which has caused a very bad impact and made the provincial party committee very passive. Li Zhiguo, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, was very angry. The Provincial Party Committee also criticized the Omi City team many times. Lu Dawei, Secretary of the Omi City Party Committee, is also the leader of the Omi City Stability Maintenance Leading Group. Naturally, he was the first to bear the brunt and was deeply blamed. When his old leader was summoned late at night, he naturally couldn't help but vomit bitterness. Secretary Li Zhiguo looked at his former secretary. Yu Gong shook his head and smiled bitterly, but Yu privately felt compassion.

The Provincial Party Committee has long been interested in solving this stagnant water in Omi City. It seems that this time the Provincial Party Committee has finally made up its mind. The word "Chuan" slowly calmed down between Governor Yu Xiangyang's brows and he turned his attention to Secretary Li Zhiguo: "Old Li, let Zhitang Comrade went to Omi to work with Comrade David?"

Yu Xiangyang would not allow Gao Zhetang to take charge of the local government and use his Ph.D. in Economics from Renmin University of China, an expert in urban economics, a senior economist, and thunderous means to promote the economic and social development of Omi City and write a new chapter in Omi City. Doubtless, it is also an opportunity for Gao Zhetang, a rare opportunity to display his talents and realize a political platform. Of course, this is also a difficult challenge. Not to mention the economic difficulties of Omi City, the personnel structure of the Omi City team also gives him a headache. .

The interpersonal relationships in Omi City's officialdom are complex and intertwined. Municipal Party Committee Secretary Lu Dawei has been following Secretary Li for more than ten years. He has heard and seen Secretary Li's work style, and has more or less been infected with a little bit of Secretary Li's habits.

After taking office in Omi City, Gao Zhetang had to face a difficult and complicated situation. Yu Xiangyang was worried that Gao Zhetang's temper would cause trouble.

Secretary Li Zhiguo interrupted Yu Xiangyang and said: "Lao Yu, the historical status and geographical advantages of Jinjiang City should become the northern engine of our province's new round of economic development, starting from point to area, stimulating the role of the northern region, and the southern region.

Jiangzhou City has formed two important economic cities in the north and south, driving the economic development of our Jiangdong Province. My personal view is to change the leadership team of Omi and add a lot of fresh blood."

Yu Xiangyang was stunned at first, and then his heart became turbulent. However, he quickly regained his composure. The Omi City leadership adjustment plan was studied by the provincial party committee and decided to make fine adjustments.

Today's major blood change made Yu Xiangyang aware of Secretary Li Zhiguo's intentions. This result must be inseparable from the fact that David Lu, the secretary of the Omi Municipal Party Committee, secretly and closely reported to the provincial Party committee.

Yu Xiangyangping asked: "Old Li, do you have any specific plan?"

Li Zhiguo smiled and patted Yu Xiangyang's hand, and said: "You old Yu..." At this point, Li Zhiguo obviously paused before continuing, "The main leaders of the two teams in Omi City were transferred from provincial agencies.

Comrade, some cadres will be deployed from developed cities in the south. Of course, the details will have to be discussed at the Standing Committee before the tone can be decided. However, we in Omi City are taking a step forward and moving forward unhurriedly. I am also anxious in my heart. I think Omi City must

To achieve leap-forward development, it is necessary to have a municipal party committee secretary who has both innovative consciousness and pioneering spirit, and is capable of urban construction and management in Youdong."

Yu Xiangyang is naturally aware of Secretary Li Zhiguo's intentions. Although the appointment and removal of cadres in Jiangdong Province are all decided by the provincial party committee leader, the appointment and removal of deputy provincial cadres, especially senior cadres of the provincial government, he, the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee and the governor,

The right to speak still carries some weight, so Li Zhiguo needs to reach a consensus with him.

The Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee has set the tone, and the main leaders of the Provincial Party Committee have reached a consensus on personnel arrangements. If no serious accident occurs, the possibility of changes in the plan is slim, which means that Gao Zhitang will not be involved in the subsequent appointment and removal of the Vice Governor.

.

At that moment, Yu Xiangyang was not disappointed at all. On the contrary, he felt inexplicably excited.
