The pursuit of a position in officialdom

"Secretary Cheng, your criticism is correct, and I humbly accept it. Our Baoquan Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have organized and deployed a three-month campaign to crack down on illegal and criminal activities, and the city has set off a climax to build a safe Baoquan." Wan Fenghua was met. He is very calm about everything, and can still smile when faced with Cheng Haifa's scolding.

"Fenghua, the criminals in Baoquan City are so brave that they dare to rob civilian girls on the street. How are you going to explain this to the provincial party committee?"

"We will strictly abide by the law and deal with criminal suspects in accordance with the law without any favoritism." Wan Fenghua said righteously.

"In Fenghua, some people from the provincial party committee have long been eyeing Baoquan City. Baoquan City's oil resources are more valuable than gold. Over the years, many pairs of eyes have been staring at Baoquan City, wanting to get a piece of the pie in Baoquan City. Everyone has noticed what Baoquan City has done over the years. You have to be aware that your superiors can’t see it. Don’t go too far, otherwise no one will be able to protect you.”

When Li Wujiang was busy in the office, he received a call from Ding Fangning, saying that he had arranged for someone to deliver the holiday benefits. Li Wujiang expressed his gratitude. Li Wujiang originally didn't want Yang Yanzhao to get involved in this matter, but Yang Yanzhao was the director of the General Affairs Department. If he ignored Yang Yanzhao to handle this matter, he would look a little stingy. Li Wujiang thought for a while and called Yang Yanzhao and Yao Honglan respectively.

"Director Yang, how are the preparations for the National Office and Office Information Exchange Conference going?"

"Director Li, I have a lot of work on hand recently. This work has been prepared by Director Yao."

"Director Li, according to your request and Director Yang's arrangement, our General Affairs Office has made innovations in training content and training formats, breaking the previous model of lectures instead of training. This time we use interaction and scenario-based simulations as the Lord, we strive to enable everyone to acquire new office skills in actual practice.”

"Okay, Director Honglan has a lot of ideas. The exchange meeting will start the day after tomorrow. Are all the people from all provinces and regions here?"

"Comrades from some provinces and regions have already arrived, and we have arranged for comrades from the General Office to do reception and service work in the hotel."

"We must do a good job in reception and service. Let our friends from other provinces and cities feel at home. Director Yang, this is a national conference. Please see which leaders are required to participate. We have to invite them in advance."

"According to past management, the Secretary-General has to attend the opening ceremony. This is an internal office activity of our provincial party committee, and other leaders do not need to participate." Yang Yanzhao played a trick in front of Li Wujiang. Secretary-General Miao must be He needs to be invited, but Li Wujiang is only the deputy director of the general office, and there is also the deputy secretary-general in charge of the general office. In principle, the leaders in charge need to be invited. Yang Yanzhao did not explain to Li Wujiang that this was a bit of a dig for Li Wujiang.

"Okay, I understand what you said. I will report this matter to the Secretary-General in person. Another thing, isn't the Dragon Boat Festival coming soon? The welfare issue that Director Yang mentioned last time, Ji Liao Mr. Ding from the chemical industry took special care of our general office and sent us condolences. Director Yang and Director Honglan go and accept them and express your gratitude to the comrades of Jiliao Chemical Industry. "

Yang Yanzhao never expected that Li Wujiang was so powerful and could climb the big tree of Ji Liao Chemical Industry so quickly. I originally wanted to pose a problem to Li Wujiang, but I didn't expect it to be solved so easily.

Yang Yanzhao and Yao Honglan were shocked by the condolences sent by Jiliao Chemical Industry. It was a cart full of supplies, including tobacco and alcohol. There are ten pieces of high-grade Liuhe wine, each worth three thousand yuan; the rest are mid-grade Liuhe old wine, worth one thousand yuan each. There are ten cigarettes in the Double Happiness package, each worth 1,000 yuan, and there are 100 cigarettes in hard packaging, each worth 300 yuan. This Jiliao Chemical Industry cost more than 100,000 yuan.

"Director Yang, there are too many condolences, and the value is too great. In previous years, each person only received two to three hundred yuan in condolence gifts, but this year there are so many more, other departments should be envious."

Chapter 385 Small means, convincing

Yang Yanzhao was in constant shock. He had never expected the final result to be like this. This kind of condolence gift was beyond his expectations.

Seeing that Yang Yanzhao hadn't responded yet, Yao Honglan shouted a few more times.

"Director Honglan, what's wrong?"

"Director Yang, where should we put so many items?"

Yao Honglan's words reminded Yang Yanzhao that such a large cart of condolences could at least fill a room. This was a bit difficult for him.

"Honglan, I'll take care of you here. Go ask Director Li for instructions and see how he arranges it." Yang Yanzhao's attitude improved at this time.

Yao Honglan ran all the way, panting when she reached Li Wujiang's office, her two plump breasts bouncing around like little white rabbits, which made Li Wujiang dazzled.

"Director Li, there are too many, too many."

"Director Yao, please calm down for a moment, you said too much." Li Wujiang thought in his heart that he was the director and still so excited.

Yao Honglan calmed down a little and said, "Director Li, Ji Liao Chemical has sent too many condolences, including a hundred cigarettes and a hundred bottles of wine."

Li Wujiang was also shocked when he heard this. Ding Fangning was really generous. One hundred cartons of cigarettes and one hundred boxes of wine. Li Wujiang knew that what Ding Fangning sent was not a low-end product.

"There's no storage room or warehouse outside the office?" Li Wujiang asked.

Li Wujiang asked very clearly that if so many things outside the general office were placed in the provincial party committee compound, the impact would be very bad.

"Director Li, I know that our office has several idle houses outside, but they are all managed by Secretary Miao." Yao Honglan said quietly.

"Oh, since there are, why are you afraid of others knowing?"

"Director Li, everyone says that this is the secretary general's small treasury." Yao Honglan said beside Li Wujiang's ear, and a feminine fragrance stimulated Li Wujiang.

Li Wujiang thought about it and decided to forget it. If he asked Miao Chengyi, and let Miao Chengyi think that he was asking about his little secrets, it would be bad.

It seems that he still needs to find a way himself, so he picked up the phone and called Zhao Qianlong. This guy is engaged in real estate in Jiyang City, so he must have idle houses. Li Wujiang called, Zhao Qianlong thought it was a big deal, and said that he would immediately arrange someone to come and deliver the keys. In addition, he asked Li Wujiang if he needed anything, and their company would also come to comfort Li Wujiang.

"Director Honglan, someone will come to the gate to give you the key and take you there. Leave the key with you first, and then you can discuss with Director Yang to distribute the gifts to the comrades in the General Affairs Office and the Inspection Office according to the number of people."

"Director Li, how do we divide these gifts? How much does each person get?"

"How did our department distribute them before?"

Yao Honglan said embarrassedly, "The gifts from the lower units that came to our office to express their condolences were all taken away by the previous leaders, and very little was distributed to everyone. The gifts this time are very valuable. I suggest you keep some of them for Director Li to prepare for emergencies."

"Don't consider me. You keep some for the leaders of the General Office, and the rest will be distributed to everyone." Li Wujiang didn't care about these things.

"Okay, Director Li." Li Wujiang watched Yao Honglan leave excitedly, and felt that this old woman was like a second spring.

Li Wujiang reported to Miao Chengyi about the situation of holding the National Office Office Joint Document Exchange Conference and invited him to attend the opening ceremony. Miao Chengyi knew that this was a routine, so he agreed very readily.

Yang Yanzhao did not mention Wang Mingyang to Li Wujiang, but Li Wujiang thought of Wang Mingyang. Wang Mingyang, the deputy secretary-general, was in charge of Li Wujiang, the deputy director of the General Office, but the two did not interact much. But etiquette and rules cannot be ignored. Li Wujiang went to Wang Mingyang's office in person to invite him to participate in this event.

Wang Mingyang was very enthusiastic when he saw Li Wujiang take the initiative to come to his office. Although Wang Mingyang is a deputy secretary-general at the department level, in the eyes of many people, he is not as powerful as Li Wujiang. So although he is a deputy secretary-general at a high level, he is still a level lower than Li Wujiang.

"Director Wujiang, why did you come here in person? If you have something, just call me and I will come over." Wang Mingyang said with a smile.

"Secretary Wang, you are my leader, how can I let you run to my office? You should summon me at any time. I have been working in Jining for a while. During this period, I have been following Secretary Li for research and investigation. I have not taken time to report my work to you, Secretary General. I must first admit my mistake to the Secretary General."

"Director Wujiang, you can't say that. Your work is the central work of our General Office. The work of our General Office should be carried out around you and Secretary Li." Wang Mingyang's words raised Li Wujiang's position too high, and it felt a bit like Li Wujiang couldn't get up and down.

"Secretary General is too flattering to me. I just follow the arrangements of the leaders and do a good job of service. I came here today to report two things to the Secretary General. The first is that our Provincial Party Committee Office is going to hold a national office office document office meeting exchange event. I hope that the Secretary General can attend the relevant activities and encourage the comrades."

This is Wang Mingyang's responsibility. Li Wujiang took the initiative to report again, and he of course happily agreed.

When Li Wujiang reported the second thing, saying that he had prepared holiday benefits for everyone, Wang Mingyang was also very pleased that Li Wujiang was so capable and also considered him. So he praised Li Wujiang again. Finally, Li Wujiang asked Wang Mingyang to go out for a small gathering another day. Wang Mingyang readily agreed and said that he would definitely let him arrange it.

"Wujiang, who told you this?" Li Weiguo asked seriously.

"Secretary Li, the provincial party committee compound is a gathering place for news. Some people have spread rumors about things that don't exist."

"Wujiang, don't take this matter lightly. Some people want to make a fuss about the Suizhou incident. They can't see Jiang Guohua's good side, and they blame Jiang Guohua for not living up to his expectations."

"Secretary Li, Secretary Jiang also has difficulties in his work. This kind of thing exists all over the country."

"You see it very clearly, but many people also see it very clearly. They can turn many small things into big things. Your General Office should draft a document. I think the work style of the provincial party committee compound should be rectified. They are idle all day long and don't work properly."

"Okay, Secretary Li. Secretary Jiang has made several appointments in the past few days to report to you in person on the plan for the reform and development of Suizhou enterprises."

"I won't see him for the time being. Please meet him for me and let him settle down and make some achievements. In addition, you will check the development plan for the reform of Suizhou enterprises for me. Results must be seen in a short time."

Li Weiguo handed Jiang Guohua to Li Wujiang, which showed his appreciation for Li Wujiang. At this time, only Li Wujiang can help Jiang Guohua.

Chapter 386 Standing Committee, Developing around the Economy

The five-day national office and document exchange meeting was held in Jining Province. Miao Chengyi, Wang Mingyang and Li Wujiang attended the event ceremony. The event ceremony changed the form of the past. High-tech modern means such as projection and computer were fully displayed, allowing everyone to feel the direction of office and document management in the new era, which won warm applause.

Miao Chengyi looked at Li Wujiang. This kid was really smart and capable. He used new forms and new technologies to make an ordinary training exchange activity more vivid and unique, attracting colleagues from all over the country.

Miao Chengyi and Li Wujiang also attended the opening ceremony, and they did not participate in the rest of the activities.

This was the first time that Li Wujiang attended the Jining Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee meeting. Although he was not a member of the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee, he was the first secretary of the Provincial Party Committee. The written records of the Standing Committee meeting depended on him.

Li Wujiang went to the meeting room early to see the preparations. Except for the deputy secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, the other members of the Provincial Party Committee came in and greeted Li Wujiang.

Li Wujiang was also very puzzled. He was very careful in doing things, and he didn't know where he offended Yan Ming. Seeing that all the standing committee members were present, Li Wujiang went to report to Li Weiguo. This is the normal procedure. Generally, the standing committee members who are in the back will arrive at the meeting room first, and everyone has formed a tacit understanding.

There are thirteen standing committee members of the Jining Provincial Party Committee, including Li Weiguo, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Mao Yumin, Governor of the Province, Yan Ming, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Cheng Haifa, Deputy Secretary and Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, Chen Baojia, Executive Vice Governor, Zhu Jiongci, Minister of Organization, Lu Wenming, Standing Committee Member of the Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Jining Municipal Party Committee, Wei Changhai, Minister of Propaganda, Liu Lu, Standing Committee Member and Deputy Governor of the Provincial Party Committee, Cao Bingwang, Minister of the United Front Work Department, Xi Yong, Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, Miao Chengyi, Secretary General, and Wang Yuanping, Political Commissar of the Military Region.

Li Wujiang looked around and found that there was no clear standing committee member of the Provincial Party Committee who was in the same camp as Li Weiguo. Although the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee is the top leader and has great power, democratic decisions must still be respected at this level.

"Comrades, today we are holding this Standing Committee meeting. There is only one topic, which is to study and discuss how to revitalize Jining and how to develop Jining. We want Jining to cheer for the revitalization of Northeast China. This time I went to several urban areas under Jining Province for research. After a walk, I felt that everyone was waiting and relying on others, lacking the spirit of hard work and enterprising, and lacking the ambition to strive for the best and dare to be the first. Although our Jining is an old industrial base, it has a certain industrial foundation and certain development advantages. This makes some cadres self-satisfied, sitting in a well and looking at the sky, and blindly arrogant. We must clearly realize that our Jining Province is an underdeveloped economy and an old industrial base with difficult reforms. As the provincial capital, Jiyang City has an unclear positioning, large but not strong industry, and many but not refined enterprises; Suizhou City, as a heavy industry There are many old state-owned enterprises in the industrial base, the pace of reform is slow, the awareness of restructuring is not strong, and the innovation ability is insufficient; Kaihua City, as the national grain center, has a low level of scale and poor mechanized farming ability, which is not in line with the national grain center; Baoquan City, as an oil city, was once the pride of our country, but now its resources are facing depletion, the city's development transformation is not forward-looking, the public security environment is worrying, and the investment environment is even more difficult to say. Comrades, at present, all cities in our country are accumulating enough strength to seek development. If we don't move forward, we will regress. If we don't move forward, we will become the sinners of Jining Province. Therefore, I believe that the premise of economic development and the key to it are cadres. We need to enable the city's cadres to further emancipate their minds, change their work style, and improve their capabilities. The whole province must set off a wave of work style revolution and efficiency revolution. "

Li Weiguo stopped for a cup of tea and continued, "To carry out efficiency revolution and style revolution, we must further emancipate our minds, change our concepts, face up to our own shortcomings, identify the gap with others, and truly enhance our sense of responsibility and urgency from an ideological point of view." Ideologically realize the position, touch the soul, and then promote a major change in action. Constantly think of ways to find a way out. With the spirit of self-revolution, strive to be the "flag-bearer" and "benchmark" in the work, and vigorously implement the work efficiency revolution. , work style revolution, we must strengthen the education and management of cadres, and create a team of cadres with strong comprehensive capabilities. Promoting the implementation of various tasks is inseparable from a team of cadres with strong politics, strong ideas, and strong work styles. Some units still have problems such as lack of energy among cadres, "out of state" at work, low administrative efficiency, and failure to do their best work. In many units, some people are more or less "busy as hell" and often work overtime and stay up late, while others are "idle." "It gets moldy" and go to work and off work on time, but in the end-of-year assessment, it is a strange phenomenon that they do not work, work more and do less. "Empty talk harms the country, but hard work will prosper the country." This must pay close attention to the mental state of the cadres and adopt the policy of not changing The state takes strong measures to replace people, establish rules and regulations, quantify targets, and strengthen supervision to force the implementation of responsibilities and improve efficiency, and activate the sense of urgency in the cadre team. At the same time, we must persist in using systems to manage people, expand selection and appointment channels, and improve cadre training. , selection, assessment and use mechanisms to mobilize the enthusiasm of cadres to work and form a strong atmosphere of "comparison, learning, catching up and surpassing" of "one day on the job, one day of responsibility". To carry out the efficiency revolution and style revolution, we must strengthen our confidence and firmly establish "today". "No matter how late it is, it will be early, no matter how early tomorrow is, it will be late" efficiency awareness and a resolute style of work will further improve administrative efficiency and service levels. All departments must focus on their functional responsibilities and the list of key tasks assigned by the provincial party committee and provincial government to anchor development goals , vigorously promote the "Project Work Method", "Frontline Work Method" and "Typical Leading Method", insist on being vigorous and resolute, and stick to the end, making "do it right away and do it hard" become the normal work of the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government this year. The implementation of tasks such as fixed asset investment and investment promotion is to address the floating style of slow action or even inaction. We must persist in carrying out efficiency revolution and style revolution, and we must further strengthen the supervision and inspection of work implementation. The key to making decisions is to put them into practice and implement them conscientiously. Although higher-level departments have given repeated orders, formalism and bureaucracy still exist to varying degrees in Jining. Some individual personnel in some units work superficially and treat "what they say is done". "If it's done, it's done", which has seriously affected the progress of key projects and major projects, and affected the development speed of Jining. In order to change the work style of the majority of cadres and workers, improve work quality and efficiency, the provincial party committee and the provincial government can make rapid decision-making and deployment To implement the details and achieve results, the supervision mechanism must be strengthened. The Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Supervision Office of the Provincial Party Committee must conduct supervision and inspections from time to time to reverse the bad situation of ineffective advancement of key tasks and poor results, through supervision, accountability, notification and exposure, etc. The formality forces the implementation of departmental responsibilities.”

Chapter 387 The collision between conservatives and reformers

Miao Chengyi listened to Li Weiguo's eloquent speech. This was not the speech he had prepared at all. There is only one possibility, and that is what Li Wujiang prepared. Miao Chengyi looked in the direction where Li Wujiang was sitting. This kid had been writing furiously without looking up.

Li Wujiang certainly knew that this article was written by him. A large part of Miao Chengyi's article was praising his virtues, which did not meet Li Weiguo's requirements at all. Li Weiguo then asked Li Wujiang to draft it again.

"Comrades, the purpose of what I have said so much is to develop Jining and enable Jining to keep up with the pace of the country. After the meeting, the General Office launched an efficiency revolution and work style revolution in accordance with the requirements to further transform the work style of cadres and promote the reform of the province. Document for rapid and stable development. Okay, all members of the Standing Committee will also share their thoughts on the development of Jining.”

As the second-in-command, Mao Yumin said a few words without hesitation, that is, Jining must develop, and Jining’s development direction must not be wrong. It must continue to develop the old industrial base and promote the old industrial base to glory.

After hearing this, Li Wujiang thought that Mao Yumin's general direction was correct, but his thinking was too conservative. Developing the old industrial base was one thing, but how to restore the old industrial base to its glory was even more important.

What Lu Wenming said next seemed to start a fight. "Dear leaders, just now Secretary Li pointed out the problems existing in the development of Jiyang City. I feel very ashamed. As the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee of Jiyang City, I have a responsibility. Next, we will conduct research and deployment in accordance with Secretary Li's requirements. This time Li During the Secretary's investigation, Suizhou City did not do a good job. There were such big problems in the selected inspection points. It is conceivable that other companies should give an explanation to the provincial party committee. It is the largest in the country. The heavy industrial base cannot be destroyed in our hands."

As soon as Lu Wenming finished speaking, Yan Ming, deputy secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, took over, "This matter in Suizhou can be big or small. This is Secretary Li's first time to conduct research and inspection in the urban area, and such a big thing has happened. The mistake shows that Suizhou City does not pay attention to this matter and disrespects Secretary Li. This is what Secretary Li just said about Suizhou's too serious bureaucracy and impetuous and unpragmatic work style. If we put this matter down lightly. , then what will the people below think of our old comrades in the Provincial Committee."

Yan Ming suddenly raised the issue of Suizhou to a very high political level. His disrespect for Li Weiguo and his contempt for the instructions of the provincial party committee were all serious crimes. Any one of them would be enough for Jiang Guohua to drink. Li Wujiang was a little worried about Li Weiguo at this time. This situation was a sure-fire situation. There is no alliance on the scene, and the Standing Committee is silent for the first time. Then Li Weiguo will be in a difficult situation in the future.

After Yan Ming finished speaking, the venue suddenly fell silent, and no one spoke. Seeing that everyone was silent, Li Weiguo cleared his throat and said, "Everyone can express their opinions if they have any. Secretary Cheng, express your opinions."

Li Wujiang suddenly felt wonderful, Li Weiguo was indeed a master of gaming. Don't look at Li Weiguo as having no allies at the venue. No allies can create allies. For example, Cheng Haifa may become a temporary ally. At today's meeting, Lu Wenming singled out Suizhou City for discussion. The Baoquan City matter was more serious than the Suizhou matter. If Li Weiguo persists in pursuing this matter, he might raid his lair in Cheng Haifa.

Cheng Haifa was named, so he was too embarrassed not to say anything. He thought for a while and said, "Secretary Li's speech just now was very good. It sounded the alarm for our development in Jining and pointed out the direction for our development in Jining. Secretary Li is here." , we have a backbone in Jining. It is not easy for the grassroots comrades to do their work, and they will inevitably make mistakes. We cannot kill them with a stick, but we must also give the comrades below a chance to make up for their mistakes. "

Yan Ming was very dissatisfied when he heard what Cheng Haifa said. Although the two of them did not deal with each other in recent years, with the suppression of the former provincial party secretary, the two of them were able to live in peace and harmony. Now that his predecessor has been dismissed, Yan Ming's faction has been dealt a huge blow. Cheng Haifa and his group are eager to try, and conflicts between the two sides are bound to arise. Li Weiguo grasped the key point between the two parties.

"Although Secretary Cheng is in charge of political and legal work, he is still relatively kind to cadres. However, Secretary Cheng is right when he says that when cadres make mistakes, we cannot beat them to death with a stick. We must give them a chance to correct themselves. Of course, Suizhou This matter cannot be brushed aside. I just said that cadres are the key to development. Since cadres are the key, we, the Standing Committee of the Provincial Committee, must take the lead and demonstrate. I suggest that each of us standing committee members here subcontract one area. , as a liaison, I will take the lead in helping each city to change its cadre style and develop the local economy. Since Jiang Guohua can’t manage it myself, I will take charge of it myself.”

Li Wujiang finally knew the brilliance of Li Weiguo. Li Weiguo had already thought of his escape route, which was to take charge of Suizhou City himself. This would silence the mouths of others and no one would dare to mention this matter again.

This is how the first Standing Committee meeting ended. Although there were twists and turns, it was ultimately under Li Weiguo's control.

After the meeting, Miao Chengyi immediately called Li Wujiang to his office.

"Secretary-General, you called me?"
