image of the government

The next part is Jiangbei County.

The image of Jiangbei County Party Committee Secretary Zhou Wen is a typical official image. As the saying goes, "medium-sized and a bit fat" is an official image. Although it cannot be generalized, a smile is almost a "necessity" for grassroots officials. From the beginning of the meeting to the accompanying inspection,

The smile on Zhou Wen's face never disappeared, like a part of his entire body.

On the contrary, County Magistrate Meng Jinxing was tall and thin, with a serious face like an old-fashioned teacher. Later in the chat, Gao Zhetang learned that Magistrate Meng was really a teacher in the Chemistry Department of the Normal University seven years ago.

I was very surprised in my heart, but what surprised the new mayor even more was the county magistrate's next performance.

At the beginning of his inspection in Jiangbei, Gao Zhetang discovered a very interesting phenomenon, or it could be said that there was something strange about the officialdom.

Zhou Wen maintained the normal words and deeds of a county party secretary, but Meng Jinxing was a little out of line. He often spoke before the county party secretary, and his speech was like a professor holding a magnifying glass to review students' graduation thesis, or like in a science fiction novel.

Experts looking for technical errors constantly point out the shortcomings and difficulties in Jiangbei, which is a bit too "objective".

Gao Zhetang was puzzled by this: Isn't he the county magistrate of Jiangbei County? Meng Jinxing's approach seems to be in sharp contrast to that of Yongning County Party Committee Secretary Wang Ruibing.

The report, especially the existing problems and difficulties, needs special emphasis, which will help him as the new mayor carry out targeted work in the future.

Zhou Wen always stood by with a smile and rarely spoke, but he never criticized Meng Jinxing to stop Meng Jinxing from speaking nonsense, which confused Gao Zhetang like a bystander who had nothing to do.

On the last night in Jiangbei, the Jiangbei County Party Committee and County Government held a lively farewell banquet. All the leaders of the county's major teams were present. However, at this banquet, Meng Jinxing still went his own way. Whenever he seized the opportunity, he talked about work, and it was

Talking about problems and difficulties seems to be specifically designed to go against the atmosphere and theme of the entire banquet.

"...Inviting investment is obviously an economic act, how can it be completed as a political task? If you still have to engage in comparison, isn't that forcing everyone to launch satellites?" This statement is certainly true in theory, but as a county magistrate, it seems that

That shouldn't be said.

Gao Zhetang smiled inwardly and shook his head, and even considered suggesting to Secretary Yucheng that the county magistrate, who was almost a "political idiot," should be placed in a position like the county CPPCC.

"...It's all a lion's mouth. There's no bottom line for three-year tax exemption, and there's no bottom line for any discounts, especially land! This is a non-renewable resource, not cabbage. Regardless of whether it's really needed, it's just a few hundred acres.

A thousand acres, treat us as a success! However, the task of attracting investment is there, and sometimes it is required to be completed. What is even more annoying is that now everyone is engaged in development zones, and if there is a good project, everyone rushes to it.

, the conditions are almost the same, but compared with preferential policies, scrambling to cut off meat, scrambling to wink at foreign businessmen, in the end it is the country that suffers..."

Meng Jinxing has shouted these words in Gao Zhetang's ears several times in the past two days. It seems that he is worried that Gao Zhetang is forgetful, and because the new mayor will leave Jiangbei early tomorrow morning, he can't help but repeat the same old tune again.

Gao Zhetang also had to admit that what he said made sense. Omi City, counties, and districts have all launched development zone projects, and some are still trying their best to expand the scale and strive for provincial-level development zones. It is like a balloon blowing competition, lest it is not big, but not

Considered blowing it up.

At the same time, Gao Zhetang felt a little confused: Why did Meng Jin have to repeatedly emphasize his behavior in front of him? Did he hope that he would make some kind of change? Is there any other purpose behind this?

Meng Jinxing's words are directly aimed at the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government. This is no longer a veiled criticism or tactful complaint, but a blatant denial of the strategic deployment of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government. A county magistrate, regardless of the occasion, does not pay attention to any working methods.

And working methods, what is his intention?

Seemingly aware of Gao Zhetang's doubts, Su Yang, who had rarely spoken, said with a smile: "What County Magistrate Meng said is a bit straightforward, but some problems do exist and are serious. For example, the land issue. If you blindly satisfy foreign businessmen, those who have lost

For land-based farmers, re-employment is a headache. A small amount of compensation will not last long. We should not create endless problems and social conflicts for the sake of temporary GDP. This account is definitely not cost-effective. From a perspective

From a political perspective, it also needs to be treated with caution."

Gao Zhetang suddenly realized that He Guanglin and Meng Jinxing's actions were not personal actions, and at least they had some tacit approval from Zhou Wen.

At that moment, Gao Zhetang was basically sure of the intentions of the two chief officials of Jiangbei County. In the end, it was better to give his new agency market a good show. Zhou Wen sat behind the scenes skillfully, and Meng Jinxing took the lead.

But another question came one after another: Why did they do this? Why did they criticize and even openly resist the strategic deployment of the municipal party committee and government?

Both Zhou Wen and Meng Jinxing are leading cadres trained by the party for many years. They are not newcomers to the officialdom. They should understand the nature and consequences of their actions.

Of course, blindly displaying achievements in front of leaders may not have the best effect, because even if it is not considered to be exaggeration and deception, it may also make people think that the situation is great, and then increase the pressure and put forward higher demands. In the end, it is self-inflicted and forced to grit one's teeth; but

At the same time, blindly exaggerating difficulties will make your leaders think that you are incompetent and ineffective at your work.

Reporting in the officialdom is a technical job, which requires more strategies, achievements, and difficulties. Whether it is 30-70 or 50-50, as the Art of War says, "The secret of application lies in everything."

"One heart", and the key to how to use it is to find out the leadership's intention, obey and cooperate. This is also the "knowing the enemy and knowing the enemy, and you will never be in danger in a hundred battles" in the art of war.

For Meng Jinxing, a cadre who was born as a teacher, Gao Zhetang had no confidence and could not judge his depth. However, for Zhou Wen, the county party secretary who had experienced many years of officialdom, Gao Zhetang could use a common saying in the officialdom to sum it up: time-tested

cadres and comrades.

So, what specific difficulties or contradictions forced them to do this?

At this point, Gao Zhetang went deep into consideration and analysis. From the perspective of the possible future political structure of Omi City, it seems that Zhou Wen's approach has been reasonably explained.

The Provincial Party Committee put Secretary Liu Yucheng and himself in Omi City. Neither Liu Yucheng nor himself knew anything about the officialdom of Omi City. They were working alone. It was not easy to hold up the scale of power.

thing.

Although during this period, everyone has been rumored that the new team will make a major adjustment to the officialdom of Omi City, but in fact, there is only thunder but no rain, and no action has been seen so far, especially during this period, the two heads of the Omi City Party and Government

The words "caution" and "forbearance" made the leading cadres below unable to help but speculate.

Of course the best way to be an official is to stick to the bottom line and live alone. Everyone knows that if you don’t have to take sides, then it is enough to maintain a comradely relationship with everyone, including leaders. In the officialdom, except for fathers, sons and brothers,

Blood relationships, even half-mothers, are potential enemies and rivals, and are purely interests. Although this concept comes from some Qing Palace novels, it has a certain truth, especially in the current Omi City, but

It is precisely because of this political situation that they know they must make political choices.

Based on this consideration, the actions of the two Jiangbei County political officials may seem incredible, but they are also reasonable. This approach is safer than rushing to please any party in a hurry.

Thinking of this, Gao Zhetang couldn't help but smile bitterly, but to be honest, this didn't make Gao Zhetang unhappy. He understood their approach to a certain extent.

Gao Zhetang thinks that the sense of worry shown by these two Jiangbei County officials should be affirmed. Most of their opinions are candid and objective, and worthy of the municipal party committee and government's attention. From this point of view, the Jiangbei team is still working pragmatically.

, qualified leadership team.

After the banquet, Gao Zhetang returned to the room, feeling depressed. He recalled the research and inspection work of the past few days, the attitudes and performances of several local governors, and the issues he was interested in. Some things seemed to be coming out.

There are some things that are elusive, and my heart is struggling to calm down. The door is knocked softly twice.

The person who came in was his secretary Wu Hanwei. After he came in, he immediately closed the door and said, "Mayor Gao, something big happened..."

"The Secretary-General just told me on the phone that the municipal bureau alarm center received an alarm call from the staff of the Municipal Guest House half an hour ago. Li Jianguo, deputy director of the Municipal State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and a 37- or 38-year-old woman,

On the 11th floor of the Guest House, he jumped off the building and fell to his death. Deputy Director Li hit the ground head first when he fell. He died on the spot and the scene was full of blood. When the woman fell from the building, she fell directly into a red car parked downstairs.

On the BMW sports car, the fallen body made a deep hole in the front of the car. A black plastic notebook and a mobile phone were also scattered at the scene. The Secretary-General urged me to seize the time to report this matter. The Secretary-General also said that let

I will ask for your instructions immediately after contacting you. Should you report this matter to the higher authority immediately?"

After listening to the secretary's brief report, Gao Zhetang thought to himself, how could a deputy bureau-level cadre jump off the building at the Guest House at this time? What on earth is going on?

Li Jianguo is also a cadre of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. Gao Zhetang also has a certain understanding of him. In his impression, Li Jianguo is a capable cadre with relatively high political awareness. Last year, he was rated as advanced and outstanding by the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee.

Party members and advanced workers didn’t notice anything unusual!
