The pursuit of a position in officialdom

"Mayor Du, I think you don't understand. External recruitment means recruiting capable people. We can adopt an appointment system. If he can meet the requirements of the investment office position, then he can continue to stay. If If he cannot meet the requirements of the investment promotion office, he can resign and leave. We can give him a position and pay him, provided that the other party wants to create greater value. Since the city government will attract investment. The work is entrusted to me, and I also want to take various measures to develop Nandu City as soon as possible. If we don’t take effective measures, it will be difficult to improve the investment situation of Nandu City. Even if I are asked to control Nandu City’s economy, there is nothing I can do.”

Li Wujiang's last sentence was very obvious. Since you asked me to do economic work but didn't give people or support, you can't blame me if I don't do the job well in the end. It doesn't work if you want the rabbit to run away but also don't want the rabbit to eat grass.

"I think what Mayor Wujiang said is a way. Now it is a market economy. The chief minister encourages everyone to move forward and look forward. The pace of our reform can also be bigger. The economy of Nandu City is now like this. If we don't make up our minds and take some effective measures, we will be the sinners of Nandu City." Zhang Changsheng first expressed his support for Li Wujiang. No matter what Li Wujiang's plan is, he still has to stand up to Li Wujiang at critical moments.

Li Wujiang saw Zhang Changsheng supporting him and smiled at him.

"Reforms must also comply with organizational procedures. If they violate organizational procedures, I firmly oppose it." Du Gang made his opinion clear.

The other three deputy mayors also spoke vaguely and did not express their stance directly.

Ding Zhongping's biggest problem is that he wants to be a good man and doesn't want others to think that there is a conflict between the members of the Nandu City Government team. However, it is normal to have disputes about work. If you insist on seeking the best, you will not get anything done in the end. "Mayor Wujiang's starting point is good, but the matter of hiring external cadres needs to be decided by the Standing Committee. Vice Mayor Wujiang will come up with a plan as soon as possible and submit it to the Standing Committee for study and decision."

In the end, Ding Zhongping did not express his support or disapproval, and simply pushed the work to the Standing Committee. Li Wujiang also shook his head.

After the meeting, Li Wujiang came to Zhang Changsheng's office.

"Wujiang, why didn't you communicate with Mayor Ding in advance about your external job?"

"There is too much work in hand. When you are busy with this or that, you forget about it."

Zhang Changsheng could tell that what Li Wujiang said was a refusal, so he did not ask further questions. After working as a leader to this extent, he was not qualified to educate Li Wujiang. He also knew that Li Wujiang was smarter and more capable than him, and he had his own purpose in doing so.

"Wujiang, you have worked hard during this time, and the pressure is all on you alone."

"Mayor Zhang, I am not afraid of hard work, nor am I afraid of doing work. But I am afraid that I will be too busy, and Nandu City will remain where it is. Since the organization has placed me in this position, I have one purpose to improve Nandu City's economy. Development is good. If everyone supports me, I want to develop. If everyone doesn’t support it, I will also create opportunities for development.”

Zhang Changsheng admired Li Wujiang's aggressiveness, drive and determination not to admit defeat. If every cadre had this spirit, Nandu City's economy would not have to worry about developing. Zhang Changsheng also understood that the biggest problem in Nandu City was the lax work style of the cadres and their lack of drive. Li Wujiang's purpose of changing the blood in the Investment Promotion Office this time was to introduce external blood and force internal awakening.

Chapter 255 The mine collapsed and faced a crisis

"Wujiang, no matter what you do, I will support you. Of course, as a leading cadre, you must also pay attention to artistic methods. Only with the support of leaders can you get twice the result with half the effort."

Li Wujiang knew that Zhang Changsheng was a kind reminder, "Mayor Zhang, in order to thank you for your support of my work, I have arranged a table at the Nandu Hotel tonight. Mayor Zhang and Mayor Ding are welcome to come."

Seeing that Li Wujiang could take the initiative to invite Ding Zhongping to sit out with him, Zhang Changsheng felt that Li Wujiang was indeed a qualified cadre, able to bend, stretch, and be both civil and military.

After Li Wujiang's plan to hire an external deputy director came out, the Investment Promotion Office started to explode.

"Director Chai, Mayor Li wants to arrange for someone to come and seize power."

"Yes, it's because you don't like us old people. If you don't want us, just say it straight. Why bother with all these twists and turns."

After Chai Jin got the news from Du Gang, he was furious. This Li Wujiang was really not a fuel-efficient lamp. He targeted the Investment Promotion Office with one move after another, and he was determined to kill them. Chai Jin also knew very well that the people in the Investment Promotion Office were here to mess around. Chai Jin deliberately spread the news, and when Li Wujiang did this, everyone became the same enemy. No matter who came, they couldn't even think of breaking a hole in the investment office.

Seeing that the investment promotion was not successful, Li Wujiang arranged for Qi Xianzhong to personally keep an eye on the work of Zhongzhou Machinery, telling him that the work that should be done must be done, and some work must be done in advance. Qi Xianzhong also knew that this was a big event and a good thing for Nandu Industrial Park, and he was also very concerned about the work arranged by Li Wujiang.

While Li Wujiang was investigating graphite mines in Baochang County, bad news came from Liuhe County, saying that a collapse occurred at the Longyuan Iron Mine. After Li Wujiang heard this, he was shocked. If this really happened, it would be a big deal.

Wu Changqing is now the county magistrate of Baochang County. He is very happy that Li Wujiang can come to Baochang County. He originally planned to arrange a good meal for Li Wujiang, but he did not expect that something like this happened. Wu Changqing didn't try to stay.

Before leaving, Li Wujiang did not forget to ask Wu Changqing to do a good job in attracting investment in metallurgical materials, especially to focus on supporting local enterprises. We must be refined and specialized in a project and create a brand.

Fortunately, Baochang County and Liuhe County are adjacent to each other, and Li Wujiang asked Ning Xiaowei to rush directly from Baochang County to Longyuan Town. Along the way, Li Wujiang was on the phone. There are currently ten employees in the mine, and their current conditions are unknown. Chang Yafei happened to be in Longyuan Town and was the first to arrive at the scene of the accident. Li Wujiang asked him to put saving people first, evacuate the surrounding people, and ensure that no secondary disasters occurred. At the same time, rescue personnel should be mobilized to stand by on the spot.

Ning Xiaowei drove very fast all the way and arrived at the scene of the accident in an hour. Li Wujiang and Xi Yunhai were about to vomit. But this was not the time to vomit, Li Wujiang arrived at the scene as soon as he got off the car. Deng Dahai and Zhou Zhengyi had also arrived at the scene.

"County Magistrate Deng, what's the situation now?"

Deng Dahai saw Li Wujiang also rushed to the scene so quickly, and immediately stepped forward to report, "Mayor Li, due to improper operation of the workers, the mine collapsed. Although the area of ​​the collapse is not large, the soil is loose and the machinery cannot be directly operated, so it is mainly relying on manual excavation. As of now, the gap has not been opened, and the life and death of the people inside is still unclear."

"Are there any casualties outside?"

"Two workers were slightly injured and have been sent to the hospital for treatment."

"Yafei, where is he now?"

"He is at the scene of the accident, doing manual excavation with the workers."

"Okay, County Magistrate Deng, you are responsible for connecting with the person in charge of the mining company to discuss whether there are other ways, and at the same time, you will do a good job in scheduling personnel to ensure that the excavation work cannot stop. Zhengyi, you are responsible for maintaining order and doing a good job for the people, so that everyone believes that the government will not give up a worker."

After Li Wujiang finished speaking, he walked directly to the center of the accident site. Li Wujiang saw Chang Yafei shoveling the soil with a shovel, making him look dirty. This doesn't look like a cadre from Beijing. As a cadre, if he can sacrifice himself at a critical moment, he is a good cadre.

Chang Yafei also saw Li Wujiang coming, and reported to Li Wujiang while working.

"Yafei, you have worked hard, and all the workers have worked hard. At this moment related to the lives of other workers, everyone is united and works together to dig a life channel for the workers. The people of Liuhe will never forget you."

Li Wujiang said, and joined the work team.

"Yafei, at this speed, how long will it take to dig this channel."

"Mayor Li, I asked the workers in the mine. At this speed, it will take about three days to dig through. This is not enough to predict the situation inside?"

"Then is there any other suitable way to speed up and open the life channel as soon as possible."

"This is the only exit. If you want to rescue the workers, you must open this exit. The key is that the mechanical equipment dare not move, and it can only rely on manual labor, so the work efficiency is very low."

"Okay, no matter how low the efficiency is, don't give up. Everyone works harder, and the workers in the mine have a higher chance of survival."

At night, more and more people gathered to watch. In the eyes of many people, they think that their family members' hope of survival is not very great, and they ask the mine and the government to give an explanation.

Looking at the crowd, Li Wujiang stood up without hesitation, "Dear villagers, I am Li Wujiang, the county party secretary of Liuhe County, everyone quiet down."

The people present heard Li Wujiang's voice and all quieted down. Li Wujiang's prestige in Liuhe is still very high, because Li Wujiang has brought benefits to the people of Liuhe, allowing them to get rid of poverty and become rich.

"Dear fellow villagers, today there was a landslide accident in Longyuan Mine, which none of us want to see. Here I apologize to everyone on behalf of the county party committee and county government."

Li Wujiang bowed deeply to the people present. Some people at the scene said loudly, "Secretary Li, this is not your fault. We all remember your kindness to us, and we will not forget you."

The voice of a crowd attracted a group of people to shout, all thanking Secretary Li.

Deng Dahai, Zhou Zhengyi, and Chang Yafei did not encounter this situation. Originally, everyone thought that the people should complain, but they did not expect everyone's love for Li Wujiang. It seems that it is not that the masses do not understand the cadres. As long as the cadres do a good job and the masses get a little favor, they will also be supported by the masses in every way.

Li Wujiang was also very moved after hearing this. At least his efforts have been recognized by the people. Li Wujiang motioned everyone to be quiet. "Thank you very much for your support for our work. None of us want to see what happened today, but since it has happened. The Liuhe County Party Committee and County Government will also face it. We will make rescuing the lives of our fellow workers our first task. We will make full use of the golden rescue hours of 72 hours and dig day and night."

Chapter 256 Do not abandon, do not give up

"I hope everyone can pray together that our fellow workers will be safe. The Liuhe County Party Committee and County Government have prepared food for everyone. Those who have not eaten should eat a hot bite quickly. Wait a minute, when there is a shortage of manpower, we will also need all the fellow villagers to come and help."

"Secretary Li, we all listen to your command. We will do whatever you tell us to do."

Li Wujiang personally distributed food to the family members waiting at the scene and comforted them.

"Secretary Li, the people's love for you is from the heart."

"County Magistrate Deng, as long as we work for the welfare of the people wholeheartedly, the people will remember our good cadres. So no matter what we think of today, we must dig to the end. Where is the person in charge of the mine?"

"Mayor Li, I am the person in charge of the mine. My name is Qiu Donghai." Qiu Donghai was arranged by the Kyoto Investment Group. Such a big thing happened today, and Qiu Donghai was very scared. If everyone in the mine died, he, the person in charge, would go to jail.

"Mr. Qiu, what happened in today's accident?"

"While one of our workers was working on the mine entrance, he made a mistake and the large machinery crushed the mine entrance."

"Where were the workers working underground at that time? Were they at the entrance of the mine?"

"Probably not. They are all working in the mine, and they are still some distance away from the mine entrance."

"If the workers are in the cave and don't encounter a landslide, will their lives be in danger?"

"The oxygen in the mine is thin, but in this case, workers can usually persist for three to five days. Of course, there is also the risk of gas explosions in the mine at any time."

"Are there any emergency rescue measures now?"

"Mayor Li, the entrance to the mine is relatively fragile. We can work from a distance away from the entrance, dig step by step, and increase the construction area to speed up the work."

"Okay, Mr. Qiu, then go ahead and make arrangements now. You must be careful and careful when working to ensure that there is no danger before construction."

"Mayor Li, why don't you go back and rest first? It's getting late. I'll report to you in time if there is any situation here."

"County Magistrate Deng, I can't sleep if I go back at this time. It's better to stay here. I can deal with emergencies as soon as possible. It's better for you to go back. You are not young anymore. You can't stay here all the time. "

"Forget it, I'll stay with you here. I don't feel at ease if I go back."

"Okay, let's go among the masses."

The weather was still a bit cold at night, so Li Wujiang placed all the families of the trapped workers in the workers' dormitories.

When Li Wujiang walked into a room, a woman and a girl were doing homework. After seeing Li Wujiang come in, he quickly gave up his seat to Li Wujiang.

"Little girl, what's your name, and what grade are you in this year?"

The little girl was a little shy and embarrassed to say it. With the encouragement of her mother, she said, "My name is Wang Xiaohua. I am in the first grade of junior high school this year."

"How are you studying now? Are there any difficulties?"

"Nothing was difficult, everything was fine."

Li Wujiang turned to the girl's mother and asked, "Sister-in-law, I have made you suffer. This is because we did not do our job well."

"Mayor Li, you can't say that. You are the great savior of our people. Since you came to Liuhe, our lives have changed drastically. Our children can go to school, and our families have food."

"Sister-in-law, what income does your family rely on now?"

"The man in my family works as a worker in a mine, and I grow two thousand bags of edible fungi at home. The money I make in a year now is more than I have made in the past few years."

"Okay, we ordinary people can live a good life. This is the biggest wish of our Liuhe County Party Committee and County Government."

"Uncle, can my father be rescued?" Xiaohua looked at Li Wujiang eagerly.

Looking at these childish eyes, Li Wujiang could only pretend to be calm and said, "Xiaohua, don't worry, uncle will definitely find a way to rescue your father. Whenever he can't be rescued, uncle will never leave."

After hearing what Li Wujiang said, Xiaohua knelt down to kowtow to Li Wujiang. Li Wujiang quickly pulled her up.

It's late at night, and the workers haven't stopped working. County leaders Li Wujiang, Deng Dahai, Chang Yafei, and Zhou Zhengyi also took charge of the work in shifts, racing against time to ensure that they could not stop for even a minute.
