The pursuit of a position in officialdom

"Boss Ouyang, I'm going abroad in a while. If you have any situation, you can report it to Mayor Qu. I will tell him about the relevant matters."

"Mayor Li, where are you going? You won't never come back, will you?" Ouyang Wenjing also learned to joke.

"What are you talking about? I'm going to Japan to organize an investment promotion event. To put it bluntly, I'm still working for your Huang Heji Port Group. Only when we attract companies from all over the world and the industry grows and develops, the port's business will get better and better."

"Mayor Li, you're different. Others are still doing investment promotion in China, but you've turned your attention to the foreign market. You deserve to be the youngest mayor of Jining."

Chapter 548 White cat or black cat, a good cat is one that can catch mice

"Why do you say this? Why does it sound so awkward?"

"Then just be awkward." Ouyang Wenjing laughed.

The trembling appearance made Li Wujiang's heart ripple.

"Mayor Li, when you go to Japan, maybe I can help you. I have a friend in Japan who has a certain influence there, maybe he can help you."

"That's great, to express my gratitude to Miss Ouyang, I'll give you another toast."

"Director Zhigang, you have to keep a close eye on Li Xiaoguo recently, and don't let him cause trouble for me on the construction site. For some things that hinder construction, your public security organs must fight them all, and use a tough attitude to show our Binzhou City's determination to escort the development of enterprises." Li Wujiang called Cheng Zhigang to his office the next day and explained the matter.

"Mayor Li, don't worry, I will personally arrange this matter to ensure the personal safety of Miss Ouyang."

"Director Zhigang, you have done a good job recently. I heard that the acting director of the Municipal Bureau retired this month?"

"Yes, the acting director has worked hard all his life, and it's time for him to go home and enjoy his life."

"Okay, you will have to pay more attention to the Public Security Bureau in the future. Director Ma and I have discussed your affairs. Just work with peace of mind. During this period, you must cooperate with the provincial department to do a good job in promoting the one-village-one-police work, and establish this work as a benchmark work, which will be of great help to your future progress."

Cheng Zhigang was very excited when he saw that Li Wujiang specifically came to him to talk about this matter. There is a saying circulating in Binzhou's political arena that as long as Li Wujiang wants to use someone, there is no one who can't be used. So now that he has received Li Wujiang's promise, it means that he has a chance to go further. "Thank you Mayor Li for your support for my work. I will definitely do these things well."

"Secretary Yang, you see that the acting director has retired. Should our Municipal Bureau recommend relevant personnel to the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department and the Provincial Public Security Department?" Liu Datong, director of the Political Department of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, reported.

"This matter really needs to be put on the agenda as soon as possible. You should ask Director Yuan to come."

"Zhanwei, the acting director has retired. Now there is a vacancy for the executive deputy director of our municipal bureau. What do you think?" Yang Songtao asked directly.

"Secretary Yang, I will listen to you in everything." Yuan Zhanwei immediately expressed his opinion. He understood that Yang Songtao must have a meaning when he called him over and suddenly talked about this matter.

"Director Zhigang has been very active in our bureau recently?" Yang Songtao suddenly changed the subject and talked about Cheng Zhigang.

"Director Zhigang has made some highlights in the work of catching one police officer in one village recently. After the provincial department's on-site meeting, comrades from brother cities and counties rushed to learn, so he has been busy during this period." Yuan Zhanwei replied.

"Zhan Wei, you are not as good as Director Zhigang in this respect. You just work silently. Look at Director Zhigang, he is doing a great job. Not only the city leaders are satisfied, but also the provincial and ministerial leaders are satisfied. This is listed everywhere, so he will have the upper hand when the leaders use him in the future. You are in charge of criminal investigation, which is the easiest to achieve results. You should organize some big activities in the near future to let them see the ability and performance of our city bureau criminal investigation team."

Yuan Zhanwei certainly understood Yang Songtao's meaning at this time. This is to build momentum for him and to further use him. "Okay, Secretary Yang, I will lead the criminal investigation team to handle a number of major and influential cases recently."

"Mayor Li, the gas refining integrated project has been over for more than a month, why is there no news at all?" Although Qi Shaobo is now the deputy secretary, he is now the deputy secretary in charge of the economy, which is completely different from when Lu Wannian was there. Lu Wannian's work was completely handed over to Yang Songtao.

"Secretary Shaobo, such a large project must be discussed many times, but the results should be out soon. Let's do our own things now, and work hard to promote development. This is our main business."

"That being said, after all, everyone has paid a lot for this matter, and we definitely hope for a good result."

"For such a matter, we just need to have a clear conscience. Every province and city has tried their best, and it is right for anyone to win." Li Wujiang is now holding a normal heart. When it is time to fight, he will not give in. However, this matter has passed, so there is no need for him to care so much.

"Mayor Li, you still have a good attitude. We still have to learn from you. I heard that you are going to lead a team to Japan to attract investment recently?" Recently, Li Wujiang is going to lead a team to attract investment abroad, which can be regarded as a blast in the compound of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government. For them, this is to open their eyes to see the world.

"Why, what's so strange about this? We develop the economy regardless of whether it is domestic or foreign. It doesn't matter whether the cat is white or black. A cat that can catch mice is a good cat. We must now exhaust all means to attract investment. Only by vigorously attracting investment and grasping projects can we promote the development and construction of Binzhou."

"Mayor Li, under your leadership, Binzhou has experienced wave after wave of unprecedented development miracles. If we had seen this before, comrades would not have believed it."

"Haha, that's right. Times are changing, and we must change too. We must follow the tide of the times and set sail boldly."

"Donghui, what is the opinion of your National Development and Reform Commission?"

"Leader, our National Development and Reform Commission has focused on Binzhou, Jining and Mawei, Guangxia. These two regions have their own characteristics. Binzhou City is characterized by rich resources and a relatively mature petrochemical equipment system. The most important thing is that the leaders have novel ideas and highlight people-oriented , adhere to the concept of environmental protection and focus on sustainable development. Mawei City is characterized by its strong economic power, its backing to the southeastern coastal areas, its broad market prospects, and its leaders’ open minds and broader vision.”

"Oh, from what you say, both places have merit. Let's discuss it, then. This is our country's first heavy-duty petrochemical equipment project, which is related to the direction of our country's future energy layout, so we must be extra cautious. Everyone can speak freely.”

"I am more supportive of Mawei City. For such a large project, the economic conditions must first be met. Without considerable economic conditions, such a large project cannot be supported. The most important thing is that there is a relative lack of resources in the south. If such a major project can be laid out In Mawei, it’s also a balance between north and south resources,” Mr. Zhou said.

"There is a certain truth in what Mr. Zhou said. The layout of the south is indeed conducive to the adjustment of our country's north-south resource structure, which is more beneficial to our country's future development. However, we have to realize that this is the first time such a large project has been constructed in our country. It is not only related to energy The layout is more related to energy security issues.”

Chapter 549: High-level game, high position

"This is an issue we have to consider. A good point mentioned by Binzhou is to insist on putting people first. At present, we have deviated from the essence of development in the development process and believe that as long as the economy is improved, then it is called development. I think this is wrong and puts the cart before the horse. The essence and core of our development is to adhere to people-oriented and governance for the people, and always take the realization, maintenance and development of the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people as the starting point for all work in our country. and the foothold, respecting the people's dominant position, giving full play to the people's pioneering spirit, protecting the people's rights and interests, taking the path of common prosperity, promoting the all-round development of people, and achieving development for the people, development relying on the people, and development results shared by the people. Large energy projects can cause safety problems if they are not careful, and they will encounter resistance from the people, so we must pay more attention to safety issues in the development process," said Yan Lao.

"Mr. Yan is right. At present, there is still a big gap between the development concept in the minds of leading cadres in some regions and departments in our country and the requirements of the scientific outlook on development. Some people still regard development as the last word and simply understand it as growth. It is a hard truth. Some still regard economic construction as the center as the center of speed, while others pursue output value at the expense of resources and the environment, and even engage in fraud, greed for big money, and are keen to carry out "achievement projects." , "Image project" What's more, some places use the name of coordinating to engage in new formalism. For example, under the guise of coordinating urban and rural areas and urban and rural integration, they often propose to be world-class or super-class, distorting and deviating from science. The true connotation of the concept of development. As you can see, our country has made great progress in the past 20 years of reform and opening up, but many things we do not want to see have also happened, including extensive economic development, serious waste of resources, and environmental pollution. The pollution is serious, and in some places, serious opposition has occurred with the masses in order to develop the economy. This is not in line with our development philosophy. We must further transform the economic growth mode and vigorously promote the transformation of the economic growth mode to an intensive one. The new industrialization path should first focus on improving quality and efficiency; secondly, it should aim at saving resources and protecting the environment, increase efforts to implement sustainable development strategies, vigorously develop circular economy, and promote green production methods and civilized consumption in the whole society. Form a policy environment and development mechanism that is conducive to low investment, high output, low pollution, and recycling, improve corresponding laws and regulations, and comprehensively build a conservation-oriented society; finally, it must be supported by scientific and technological progress," Zhao said.

"Both of them are right. These are the prices that must be paid in the process of development. When we encounter problems in development, we cannot stop development just because there are problems in development. This is a typical failure to eat because of choking. We must solve problems in development. I also I believe that development will be able to solve these problems. Although large-scale petrochemical equipment projects are not mature yet, we can never know whether we are right or wrong if we do not move forward.

After everyone expressed their opinions, the leader finally made a summary. "Adhere to the basic principle of the materialist view of history that the people are the creators of history, adhere to the fundamental purpose of the party to serve the people wholeheartedly, firmly establish the firm belief of "building the party for the public and governing for the people", take relying on the people as the fundamental premise of development, take improving people as the fundamental way of development, take respecting people as the fundamental principle of development, take people as the fundamental purpose of development, always take the realization, protection and development of the fundamental interests of the broadest masses of people as the starting point and foothold of all the work of the party and the state, solve the most concerned, most direct and most realistic interests of the people, and achieve development for the people, development relies on the people, and the fruits of development are shared by the people. Adhere to sustainable development. Coordinate the harmonious development of man and nature, and handle the relationship between economic construction, population growth and resource utilization, and ecological environment protection. Build a resource-saving and ecological protection society."

Lv Donghui attended the meeting and listened to the leaders' speeches. The final leader's speech was the final word. Lv Donghui was relieved. Although the final vote has not been made, there is no doubt that Binzhou has been determined. This is the biggest difference between Li Wujiang and others. While others are engaged in economic development, he is focusing on development; while others are focusing on development, he is talking about concepts. In this way, a people-oriented scientific development concept is better than thousands of words and capital strength. So in his eyes, Li Wujiang's intelligence and talent are unparalleled. It is inevitable that Li Wujiang will move to a higher historical stage.

When Binzhou got the news, it was completely boiling.

"Wujiang, congratulations to you." Ge Jiande was extremely excited.

"Secretary Ge, I want to congratulate you too." The two looked at each other and laughed.

"Secretary Li, we have to hold a celebration banquet for Binzhou. Only Wujiang can take down such a big project. At the beginning, I thought it was hopeless. I thought his set of ideas would definitely not be recognized, but it didn't. This kid really took it down." Chen Baojia really didn't expect Binzhou to eventually take down this project. He thought that Li Wujiang's set of ideas would definitely be shot, but he didn't expect the result to be reversed in the end.

"Governor Baojia, Binzhou won this time because of Wujiang's people-oriented concept."

This statement from Li Weiguo made Chen Baojia dumbfounded. Li Wujiang is really a god. Is it possible that his concept was carefully considered and repeatedly brewed? "Is this kid lucky?"

"It's not that he was lucky, but the development trend has changed, and Wujiang's ideas just fit the development meaning of the above. Before, our country was more extensive development, and we would sacrifice everything for development. Now our country has seen the reality clearly. Such development is unsustainable. It is not only not conducive to economic development, but also aggravates people's confrontational emotions. Therefore, in the exploration of the road of development, Wujiang proposed a new development concept. Governor Baojia, since this concept was proposed by our comrades in Jining, we must vigorously promote and call for it, and be the pioneers and vanguards. I think we should arrange this matter as soon as possible."

Chen Baojia has changed his mind and his ideas have caught up with Li Weiguo. "Okay, Secretary Li, I will arrange it right away. But should we ask Comrade Wujiang to come back and talk about the specific meaning and significance of this concept so that we can implement it in place and avoid deviations."

Chapter 550 Talents must be used

"I think it's okay. This project has been determined to be settled in Binzhou, and he also needs to go to Beijing for docking. You ask him to go to Jiyang first, report the relevant situation, and then go to Beijing."

What Li Wujiang is most worried about now is that he has no one. Such a large project requires a capable person to do a good job of coordination, but looking at the people around him, it is really difficult to find a suitable candidate. When he was in trouble, Chen Heyang, a cadre from Jiangzhou who was on a temporary assignment in Binzhou, came to Li Wujiang's office to report his work. Now Chen Heyang is the assistant to the mayor. He was just a department-level cadre in Jiangzhou before, and the assistant to the mayor was a higher level, mainly to cooperate in doing a good job in attracting investment.

Chen Heyang was also a confidant of Ma Deming in Jiangzhou, so he led the team in person when he came to Binzhou for a temporary assignment. Chen Heyang was also conscientious and reported his work to Li Wujiang every once in a while. But since Ma Deming was transferred to Xichuan, he felt a little disappointed, because Ma Deming had left, and it was hard to imagine what the scene would be like when he returned to Jiangzhou. It was inevitable that the current leader would not reuse him. But Ma Deming was also good to him, and in the end he gave him a trick to let him follow Li Wujiang closely. Although he didn't understand what it meant yet, he still had to rely on Li Wujiang during this period.

"Mayor Li, I came here today to report to you about the recent investment promotion work."

Li Wujiang saw Chen Heyang's eyes suddenly light up. This Chen Heyang is a good talent, graduated from a prestigious university, and did a good job in Jiangzhou. He was able to take the initiative to go to Binzhou, which was also a person that Ma Deming trusted. Why not take him in for his own use. Once he had this idea, he began to implement it.

"Mayor Heyang, come and sit down. This is the new tea that a friend brought from the south. Come and try it. When you leave later, take a box back." Li Wujiang was very enthusiastic.

"Thank you, Mayor Li. I didn't expect to be able to taste tea from my hometown in Binzhou."

"Mayor Heyang, you have been in Binzhou for a while, right? How is your work and life here? Are there any difficulties?"

"We have been in Binzhou for almost three months, and we have adapted to everything. The leaders and comrades in Binzhou are very concerned and caring about us. It is a shame that we have not brought anything to Binzhou?"

"You said that this is not right. You have played a big role. Not only have you brought advanced concepts and ideas to Binzhou, and activated a pool of spring water, you have also served the people in various positions and demonstrated your responsibility. I heard that you have recently attracted several projects from Guangxia?"

"This is also because Mayor Li did a good job in the early stage. We are just focusing on the foundation you laid to carry out investment promotion work."

"Mayor Heyang, you have been in Binzhou for such a long time. What do you think of Binzhou's development?"

Chen Heyang knew that Li Wujiang was testing him. Since he decided to hold on to Li Wujiang's thigh, he planned to perform well. "Mayor Li, Binzhou has gone through this round of investment promotion, especially the major petrochemical equipment project such as gas refining integration, which has laid the foundation for Binzhou's future development. At present, Binzhou has formed industries with petrochemical equipment, shipbuilding, electronics industry, and biomanufacturing as the core. The blueprint has been drawn, and the key is to see how to implement it. Good decisions require good execution, and good industries require consistent execution. There are many projects in Binzhou now, and it is particularly important to serve these projects and ensure that these projects are put into production as soon as possible." "Oh, Mayor Heyang, how do you think we can ensure that these projects are put into production as soon as possible?" "People are lazy, and I think it is impossible to achieve it by relying solely on people's self-consciousness. If human rule doesn't work, we will use the rule of law and rules and regulations to constrain people. We must establish a complete project construction incentive mechanism and supervision and management mechanism. Use rewards to encourage projects to be built and produced quickly, and use supervision to urge our project team to do a good job of service coordination. In this way, both parties will work together to ensure that the project is completed as soon as possible." After all, Chen Heyang came from Jiangzhou, and he still had something in his stomach, and he didn't hide it at the critical moment. "Mayor Heyang, let's have tea, you said it very well. We in Binzhou need a pragmatic and capable cadre like you. This time, I'm going to Beijing to connect with the gas refining integration project. How about you go with me?"

Chen Heyang knew that this project was currently the largest project in Binzhou City. Li Wujiang's bringing him along was a sign of trust in him. "Mayor Li, I'll listen to your arrangements. I'll do whatever you say."

"Okay, I like cadres like you. If you encounter any difficulties in Binzhou in the future, you can come to me directly."

"Wujiang, congratulations to you, and congratulations to Binzhou." Li Weiguo looked at Li Wujiang with a smile on his face.

"Wujiang, I congratulate you too." Chen Baojia and Cao Minglou came up to shake hands with Li Wujiang one by one to express their congratulations, which made Li Wujiang flattered.

"Three leaders, you are making it too grand. I, a small mayor, can't afford it."

"Wujiang, you deserve this congratulation. I have discussed with Governor Baojia and plan to hold a celebration party for Binzhou City. Binzhou has made great contributions to winning such a large project this time. It not only brings honor to Jining, but also increases the motivation for our Jining to attract investment. Binzhou can be said to be a model representative of our Jining."

"Secretary Li, this is our job. Increasing investment attraction and introducing large projects are also the policy goals of our current government. This is what we should do." Li Wujiang said modestly.

"Wujiang, don't be modest. The provincial party committee held a celebration banquet for Binzhou to promise to commend the advanced and boost morale. At the same time, it is also a spur to the laggards. By the way, after I came back, I reported to Secretary Li about your performance in Beijing, especially your people-oriented concept. This is a good idea. Secretary Li and we want to hear your ideas again."

When Chen Baojia said this, Li Wujiang understood why the three leaders came to him. It turns out that the purpose is here. At this time, Li Wujiang also figured out the key to Binzhou's final victory. "Three leaders, over the past 20 years of reform and opening up, our country has undergone earth-shaking changes, the economy has made great progress, and the people's living standards have been continuously improved. However, in the process of development, various problems and contradictions continue to emerge, especially in the process of development, when economic benefits are emphasized and the quality of life of the people is ignored, the two levels of rich and poor are aggravated, and people's lives and health are threatened, which has caused social confrontation and frequent group incidents. How to solve these problems is what we in power must consider." Chapter 551 Everyone is a smart person "Oh, Wujiang, these phenomena and problems you mentioned also exist in our Jining. How can the people-oriented concept you mentioned solve the problems in the production development process? In order to solve the problems of the people, we give up development?" Secretary-General Cao Minglou listened, took notes, and asked beside him.

"Secretary-General, our ancestors said that we should not waver in economic construction and development. Therefore, we should not be afraid of problems in the process of development, let alone avoid them. We should face the problems and solve them in the process of development. Our country still needs to talk about development, but we must change the concept of development from extensive development to scientific development. The first principle of scientific development is still development, but the core is people-oriented, the basic requirement is comprehensive coordination and sustainability, and the fundamental method is to coordinate and balance. We must keep abreast of the pulse of development, respond to the challenges of the times, and further propose new development concepts of innovation, coordination, greenness, openness and sharing. Firmly establishing and effectively implementing the new development concept is a profound change related to the overall development of our country, and it is our country's development ideas, development methods and development focus for a longer period of time."

"Wujiang, I didn't expect you to have such a profound understanding of the development concept. It's a pity to put you in Binzhou. You may play a greater role if you continue to work in the provincial party committee." Li Weiguo looked at his former secretary and felt that this kid was becoming more mature and stable.

"Secretary Li, I can better explore some concepts when I go to the grassroots level, and strive to explore a beneficial path for the development of our Jining."

"Okay, since you said so. We will hand this topic over to you. Binzhou should be the vanguard of the scientific development concept, strive to make a good start, and plan a better chapter for the development of our province and even our country. Governor Baojia, Secretary-General Minglou, you must cooperate with Wujiang's work, establish this new concept as soon as possible, vigorously publicize it, gradually promote it, and report it to the superiors in a timely manner."

Jining Beijing Office Director Zhu Hongfan, Binzhou Beijing Office Director Zhang Shengqi, and Deputy Director Dong Haizhu arrived at the airport early to prepare for Li Wujiang's arrival.

"Director Zhu, Mayor Li is coming to Beijing, why bother you to come and greet him in person." Zhang Shengqi was a little unhappy that Zhu Hongfan came to greet Li Wujiang. This is the responsibility of his Binzhou Beijing Office, and it is also the time for Binzhou Beijing Office to perform. At this time, Zhu Hongfan came and was about to steal their momentum.

"Director Zhang, Mayor Li has accomplished such a big thing for Jining, and he is the number one contributor to Jining. As service personnel, we should personally come to the airport to welcome Mayor Li. This is what we should do." Zhu Hongfan is the director of the Beijing Office at the level of a full-time department. Logically, he and Li Wujiang are at the same level, so there is no need to curry favor with Li Wujiang. He has been in Beijing for a long time, so he naturally knows how capable Li Wujiang is to take on such a big project. In addition, he heard that Chen Baojia was not very satisfied with the work of the Beijing Office since he took office, and planned to adjust the Beijing Office. He has also been in the position of director of the Beijing Office for three or four years, and he should also change his position. If this is delayed any further, he will be over the age limit. The most important thing is that he is impressed by the relationship between Li Wujiang and Li Weiguo and Chen Baojia. As long as Li Wujiang is willing to say a few good words for him in front of these two leaders, his future is self-evident.
