The pursuit of a position in officialdom

Du Youfa also said, "I know this classmate of mine. I don't expect him to help us. As long as he can suppress those companies a little, it will be a help to us." Du Youfa knew that Li Wujiang was still next door. So there is no love war.

Li Wujiang did not spend the night here and left after staying for more than an hour.

"Xiao Min, has Boss Li ever had a relationship with you?" Xu Huijun asked.

"Sister Xu, what are you talking about? We just had a massage." Xiao Min said shyly. She is still a college student and comes here to do massages just to make quick money part-time.

"Boss Li didn't talk to you about anything else?"

"No, Mr. Li rarely talks, but I'm always there for massages."

Xu Huijun was a little disappointed, but she believed there would be another chance in the future. "Xiao Min, Mr. Li is a big shot. If you come back in the future, you have to make a good relationship with him. I will ensure that you will have enough food and clothing in the future."

Although Li Wujiang had already made an agreement with Li Yiyang to arrange for Feng Yun to come to Bianzhou as soon as possible, he knew that this was the appointment and removal of department-level cadres and needed to go through the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, so it would take some time for Feng Yun to come to Bianzhou. During this period, he also needed to rely on Tang Lixin to promote other work.

"Secretary-General Lixin, yesterday I talked at the conference about promoting educational activities on the theme of "never forget the original intention and remember the mission" throughout the city. You will lead the comrades in the municipal party committee office to come up with a plan as soon as possible, and then seek the opinions of the municipal party committee standing committee."

"Secretary Li, although Bianzhou City has carried out various educational activities, we have not carried out this kind of theme education activities. I wonder what specific requirements Secretary Li has?" Tang Lixin is now following Li Wujiang's advice. He knows that he The opportunity was only given by Li Wujiang.

"The general requirements for Bianzhou City to carry out this educational activity are to keep the original intention, shoulder the mission, find gaps, and implement it. To keep the original intention is to keep in mind the fundamental purpose of serving the people wholeheartedly, stick to the original intention with firm ideals and beliefs, and keep in mind the people's The yearning for a better life is our goal. To shoulder the mission is to keep in mind the historical mission of realizing the great rejuvenation of the nation, to have the courage to take responsibility, to be proactive, to maintain the spirit of struggle, to dare to face risks and challenges, and to have perseverance. To overcome all difficulties and obstacles on the road ahead with selfless and fearless courage, we need to follow the decisions and arrangements of superiors and the new expectations of the people, adhere to high standards and strict requirements, and carry out targeted rectifications against advanced models and role models around us. It is to turn the original mission into the spirit of cadres to forge ahead, pioneering and innovative, and the conscious actions of hard work and hard work, to avoid formalism and bureaucracy, to promote the solution of outstanding problems that are strongly reflected by the people, and to continuously enhance the people's access to We must carry out education on the theme of "never forget the original intention and keep the mission in mind" to deeply study and implement the new ideas of the new era, temper the political character of loyalty, cleanliness and responsibility, and unite and lead the people of the city to work together to realize the great dream. "

As Li Wujiang spoke, Tang Lixin took notes, fearing that the content would be lost.

"Secretary Li, in what ways do we need to promote such theme education?"

"We can combine reality and carry out work creatively, and integrate learning and education, investigation and research, inspection of problems, and rectification and implementation throughout the entire process of thematic education. We must strengthen theoretical arming and carry out in-depth revolutionary tradition education, situation and policy education, advanced model education, and warning education. We must focus on solving fundamental ideological problems, consciously benchmark against the table, and enhance the pertinence, effectiveness, and appeal of learning and education. We must educate and guide cadres to understand the people's conditions, grasp the real situation, understand what the problem is, and where the crux lies, and come up with solutions to solve the problems. It is necessary to educate cadres to adopt the spirit of self-revolution, listen to opinions extensively, examine and reflect carefully, dig deep into the root causes, clarify the direction of efforts and improvement measures, and effectively solve the problems. The word "change" should be used throughout. Check and make changes immediately, and change as soon as you know. If you can change immediately, clarify the time limit and requirements, and make rectifications on schedule; if you cannot solve it temporarily, you must keep an eye on it and continue to deepen your understanding and enhance your consciousness. , clarify the stage goals and continue to make improvements.”

Chapter 726 Selection of secretaries, all talented people

"It is necessary to list the outstanding problems that need to be rectified in a targeted manner and carry out centralized management. The cadres and the masses must be notified of the special rectification in an appropriate manner, and the disciplinary and illegal problems discovered during the special rectification must be seriously investigated and dealt with."

"Secretary Li, what you said is so good. What you said can be formed into a plan without any modification."

"What I'm talking about is just a general idea. How to do it specifically needs to be drafted by your municipal party committee office. In short, the activities must be carried out with great fanfare, and all cadres in the city must be mobilized. We must not engage in formalism or pretentiousness. If anyone cannot be consistent with the Municipal Party Committee, it means that the theme education activities are not carried out in place, so the Municipal Party Committee Office, the Municipal Government Office, the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department, the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, the Municipal Party Committee Propaganda Department and other departments should form a joint inspection team to conduct supervision. , inspection, resolutely report any problems that you cannot find and correct, and more importantly, you must be held accountable seriously. Secretary-General Lixin, this work is very important. During this time, you must concentrate on doing this work well. Next, I will go to the counties and districts. , municipal units to conduct research, you can arrange for other comrades from the municipal party committee to accompany you. "

"Okay, Secretary Li, I will ask the comrades in the Municipal Party Committee Office to come up with a research route as soon as possible. Secretary Li, regarding your secretary issue, the Municipal Party Committee Office also has some suitable candidates. We have compiled statistics for your reference." Tang Lixin took out a stack of resumes and handed them to Li Wujiang.

Li Wujiang flipped through them and said, "Secretary Lixin, I am not familiar with the comrades in the Municipal Party Committee. You have worked in the Municipal Party Committee Office for a long time. I trust you. Please recommend someone."

Tang Lixin did not expect Li Wujiang to trust him so much. The secretary is Li Wujiang's close staff. Once the wrong recommendation is made, it will give Li Wujiang a bad impression. However, Li Wujiang trusts him so much, so he still has to say it. "Secretary Li, Comrade Li Haitao, Deputy Director of the Municipal Party Committee Secretariat, is 33 years old this year. He graduated from Tsinghua University in Beijing. He has a good character, is loyal, and is a good writer. Comrade Tian Maolin, Deputy Director of the Municipal Party Committee General Office, is 35 years old this year. He graduated from Huayuan University. He is smart, quick-witted, and flexible." In fact, it is not easy to recommend Li Wujiang's secretary. Li Wujiang is a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and a deputy ministerial-level cadre. Then his secretary is at least a deputy-division-level cadre. Li Wujiang is only in his thirties. It is still quite difficult to find a deputy-division-level cadre in his twenties or thirties in the Municipal Party Committee. Therefore, it is necessary to have the right age, level, education, and ability. There are only a few people in Bianzhou City.

"Since it was recommended by the Secretary-General, it must be right. So, you bring these two people here, and I will listen to their ideas."

"Okay, Secretary Li, I will arrange it now."

"Don't worry, Secretary-General. By the way, are the receptions of the Bianzhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government arranged at the Haohan Hotel?"

Tang Lixin did not expect Li Wujiang to suddenly change the subject and ask about the reception. Although he did not understand, he still answered realistically, "Yes, Secretary Li. The previous Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government arranged the reception work at the Haohan Hotel, and it has not changed in the meantime. If Secretary Li needs to make adjustments, I can ask the Municipal Government Reception Office to choose a new reception unit."

"I just asked casually, and there is no other meaning. Okay, you go and ask these two comrades to come over, and I will meet them." Li Wujiang did think about changing a reception unit. If Bianzhou wants to have a new atmosphere, it must establish its reception image. Everyone knows that Shen Xiuwen is a socialite, and she is also a woman who corrupts cadres. If Bianzhou's reception work is still placed in the Haohan Hotel, then Bianzhou's external image will not change.

Tang Lixin quickly brought over Tian Maolin and Li Haitao.

"Maolin, Haitao, the opportunity is in front of you. As for how to grasp it, it depends on you. Secretary Li is a kind person. He likes comrades who have ideas, dare to take responsibility, and can do things. You should think about it carefully." Tang Lixin reminded the two.

"Thank you, Secretary General." The two expressed their gratitude to Tang Lixin one after another.

"Hello, Secretary Li. My name is Tian Maolin. I am 35 years old this year. I graduated from Huayuan University with a major in economics. After graduation, I have been working in the Bianzhou Municipal Party Committee Office. Over the years, I have received encouragement and commendations from my superiors many times in my work." Tian Maolin first introduced himself.

"Okay, Comrade Mao Lin is good. You work in the General Office. What do you think are the difficulties in the work of the General Office?"

"Secretary Li, the General Office is responsible for the uploading and downloading of various tasks of the Municipal Party Committee, and undertakes external liaison, reception and support work, and the drafting and revision of comprehensive documents and comprehensive policies. The work of the General Office emphasizes refinement and efficiency. Our work needs to be responsible to the upper and lower levels. If we are not careful, it will be a big mistake. This requires us to work more meticulously and seriously to avoid any mistakes. In addition, the work of the Municipal Party Committee Office is more efficient. Once the information is not transmitted in time, it will not be possible to achieve the transmission of information from the upper level to the lower level and from the lower level to the upper level, thus missing the opportunity." Tian Maolin said a lot of things in a fluent manner.

"Comrade Mao Lin said well. It seems that he has a lot of experience in work over the years and the summary is also in place. Good. Okay, you go to work first."

"Hello, Secretary Li. My name is Li Haitao, a staff member of the Secretariat." Li Haitao's introduction was very simple and had no special features.

"Comrade Haitao, I see that you graduated from the Law Department of Tsinghua University, which is very popular. Why do you want to work in Bianzhou?"

"Secretary Li, it's actually very simple. My family is in Huayuan, so I want to return to Huayuan and make some contributions to the development of my hometown."

"I saw your resume and you also worked in Dongcheng District for a period of time. With your law major, how did you do the grassroots rule of law work?"

"I don't know if Secretary Li wants to hear the truth or a lie?"

Li Wujiang thinks that this Li Haitao is a bit interesting. He is not nervous at all in front of him, and he is very bold. He smiled and said, "Then tell me what is the truth and what is the lie?"

"The lie is that Bianzhou City is steadily advancing the work of governing according to law in accordance with the deployment of the provincial party committee and government, and has achieved certain results. The truth does not need to be told, the actual situation in Bianzhou is in front of the world. If Bianzhou's administration according to law is really well implemented, the officialdom of Bianzhou will not suffer a disaster."

Li Wujiang was inspired by Li Haitao. He knew that my country has always been a society of human relations, and most of the government governance depends on the rule of man. The biggest problem of the rule of man is that it is easy to generate interest transfer, which eventually leads to corruption. Since the new century, my country has also been continuously promoting the construction of the rule of law, intending to build a legal system that conforms to my country's national conditions and a distinctive rule of law country. However, after all, the time for implementation is limited, and many local governments are busy developing the economy, thus ignoring the construction of a government ruled by law.

Chapter 727: Those who do not plan for the overall situation cannot plan for one area.

"Comrade Haitao, it seems that you have some opinions on the implementation of administration according to law. You might as well tell me and I will listen."

Li Haitao did not expect that Li Wujiang would be willing to listen to this. During his years of practice at the grassroots level, he had encountered many leaders. Most of them promoted administration according to law as a cover, rather than advancing it in a down-to-earth manner. He doesn't believe that Li Wujiang will implement it now, but he has heard about some of Li Wujiang's deeds, and he is willing to say more now that he has the opportunity.

"Secretary Li, since you are willing to listen, let me tell you. As the saying goes, if you don't plan for the world, you can't plan for a moment; if you don't plan for the overall situation, you can't plan for a region. Only by governing the country according to the law and building a government based on the rule of law can we protect the security with the power of the rule of law. People's rights and interests. If we want to comprehensively implement administration according to law, we must adhere to the joint advancement of governing the country according to law, governing according to law, and administering according to law, adhere to the integrated construction of a rule of law country, a rule of law government, and a rule of law society, and comprehensively promote scientific legislation, strict law enforcement, fair justice, and law-abiding by all people. Comprehensively promote the rule of law in all aspects of national work. Transform government functions, optimize the government responsibility system and organizational structure, promote the legalization of institutions, functions, authorities, procedures, and responsibilities, improve administrative efficiency and credibility, and comprehensively promote strict regulations. Enforcing the law in a fair and civilized manner, increasing the intensity of law enforcement in key areas that concern the vital interests of the people, improving administrative law enforcement procedures, and improving the standards for administrative discretion. Everything is for the sake of the country and the people. This is the goal of building a rule of law in China."

"Well said, Comrade Haitao is very knowledgeable. It seems that putting you in the municipal party committee office is burying talents. Although our country is still in the preliminary stage of promoting the rule of law, it must have started. The construction of a rule of law government has already taken solid steps. , I believe that as long as we, the grassroots practitioners, make solid progress, a rule of law government with scientific functions, statutory rights and responsibilities, strict law enforcement, openness and justice, intelligence and efficiency, integrity and people's satisfaction will surely be established."

After Li Wujiang finished speaking, Li Haitao really believed it. If it were other leaders, no one would care about this matter. They didn't expect Li Wujiang to be full of confidence in this matter.

"Secretary Li, which of these two comrades do you think is more suitable to be your secretary?" Tang Lixin asked after Li Wujiang had met the two people.

"Both comrades are good, each has his own characteristics and advantages. Comrade Maolin has ideas and abilities in his work, and Comrade Haitao is thoughtful and insightful in his work."

Tang Lixin already understood what it meant. Although there was only one word difference in Li Wujiang's evaluation of the two comrades, it was a lot different. One has ideas and the other has thoughts. The ideas and thoughts are thousands of miles apart.

"I think so, let Comrade Haitao follow me first. This kid has a feeling in his heart that is right for my temper."

"Okay, since Secretary Li has arranged it this way, then I will talk to him."

Li Haitao didn't expect that Li Wujiang would really like him. He believed in his abilities, but he knew his weaknesses. He had doubts in his heart about whether he could become a qualified secretary.

"Haitao, you are a rare talent in our Bianzhou City, and your ability is beyond doubt. But don't be so conceited in the future. Secretary Li has many advantages. You should learn from him."

"Okay, Secretary-General."

"Okay, you already know Secretary Li, and you will officially take up the post from now on. You can report directly to Secretary Li."

Li Haitao didn't expect that he would become Li Wujiang's secretary so soon. He turned around and didn't need to organize an inspection or anything.

When Li Haitao walked into Li Wujiang's office again, he knew that his identity and responsibilities had undergone earth-shaking changes, and he was still a little nervous and excited inside.

"Haitao, sit down. In the future, you and I will work together, and you will have to work hard from now on. I have a big temper, an impatient personality, and strict requirements on work. I may have to work hard in my future work. You are furious, but this is all from a work perspective, I hope you can forgive me.”

Li Haitao didn't expect that Li Wujiang would say this at the beginning, which surprised him. Most of the leaders he knew made demands on their subordinates, telling them that they couldn't do this and that they couldn't do that. "Secretary Li, since I'm here, I'm mentally prepared. I will definitely complete all the tasks assigned by you and the leaders of the municipal party committee."

"I believe in your abilities, and I hope you can learn while doing it in your new position. Well, during this period, you have two main tasks. On the one hand, you are to connect with the Secretary-General and arrange the latest research route as soon as possible. On the other hand, he is assisting the secretary-general in completing thematic education-related materials. "Li Wujiang has a resolute character. Now that he is here, let's start fighting.

"Secretary-General, how did I hear that Secretary Wujiang launched ideological and political education in Bianzhou when he first took office? He did not understand the current situation. The provincial party committee sent him to Bianzhou for the purpose of grasping the economy. This guy doesn't focus on the economy, but instead launches a rectification movement, which is inconsistent with the rumors. "What Cai Zhenxiang heard most these days was Li Wujiang's enthusiastic thematic education in Bianzhou, which made him a little confused. He originally hoped that after Li Wujiang arrived in Bianzhou, he could help Bianzhou's economy get out of the quagmire and move towards revival in a short period of time. Who would have thought that Li Wujiang would do the opposite and focus not on the economy but on the ideology. This was consistent with his original intention. Violate.

As the secretary-general, Luo Nansheng must be on Cai Zhenxiang's side, but if he makes irresponsible remarks about which provincial committee member is the standing committee member without his own thoughts and opinions, it will also bring a bad feeling to Cai Zhenxiang. He thought for a while and said, "Secretary Cai, as the saying goes, to cure chaos, you must first cure the mind. Bianzhou is in great chaos now, and it is not easy to recover in a short time. Secretary Wujiang may want to rectify it through thinking, Unify the thoughts of the cadres and workers in Bianzhou and work together. Only when the thoughts are united and the ideas are consistent, can everyone work together to promote the great development of Bianzhou. "

Cai Zhenxiang's eyes lit up after hearing this. Luo Nansheng's explanation did make sense. Although Li Wujiang had a certain prestige in China, this prestige was only limited to a certain group of people. If he wanted to quickly open up the situation in Bianzhou, he really needed to find a way. "Secretary-General, what you said makes sense. Ideological education can conquer people's hearts and unify their thoughts to a certain extent. But now the cadres in Bianzhou are frightened and they are all in a state of tension. If there is another rectification movement, they will be It won’t be counterproductive. In the end, there will be no unity of thought, but it will scare people out of their wits.”

Chapter 728 The leader in the central region has fallen behind

"Secretary Cai, what you said makes sense. Bianzhou has indeed experienced too much during this period, and there is indeed a pessimistic mood among the cadres and workers of Bianzhou City. If it is not handled well, it will indeed have the opposite effect. In this way, I will take some time to talk to Secretary Wujiang these days and remind him that I believe Secretary Wujiang is a smart person."

"Okay, it's okay to do this. You have to tell him that it's okay to focus on ideological education, but economic construction must also be carried out simultaneously. We in Huayuan can't wait any longer. Although Fengzhou's economy has made great progress this year, a Fengzhou The size of the state is still too small. If Huayuan wants to develop, the key is to look at Bianzhou as the leader. If we can't get the leader, everything will be in vain. At this meeting in Beijing, the senior leaders criticized our Huayuan again and said. Our Huayuan thinking is not united enough, our thinking is not broad enough, our development is not proactive enough, and we have even stagnated. If we continue like this, we will be criticized throughout the country as a negative example. "The reason why Cai Zhenxiang is anxious is not that he is anxious. It was because the top was in a hurry, which forced him to move forward.

"Secretary Cai, an exchange meeting for six central provinces will be held in Jianghan City next month. I wonder if Secretary Wujiang can attend. By participating in this meeting, Secretary Wujiang may be able to truly feel where Huayuan is now. status, which will increase his sense of urgency.”

"Okay, okay. This is a good idea. This exchange forum is a practical exchange. Through exchanges, Secretary Wujiang can really feel the embarrassing position that Huayuan is currently in. It was once the leader in central China, but now it is far behind other provinces. Later, I believe that as a Huayuan native, you will inform Secretary Wujiang of this meeting and ask him to prepare in advance." Cai Zhenxiang was having a headache about who to send to Jianghan Province to attend the meeting. The student came up with such an idea, which was exactly what he wanted.

The first stop for Li Wujiang's investigation was the Propaganda Department and the TV station. Guo Hongwei, director of the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee, and Lu Huan, deputy minister and director of the TV station, accompanied Li Wujiang for investigation.

"Secretary Li, welcome to the Propaganda Department to guide our work, and thank you for attaching great importance to publicity work. Back then, you guided Huayuan to participate in the Universiade activities. This event can be said to be a model in the publicity industry." Guo Hongwei came from the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee Yes, he still knew Li Wujiang's name. At that time, Li Wujiang organized Huayuan Province to participate in the World Universiade promotional activities in the capital, which can be said to have made Huayuan Province's reputation an instant success.

"Oh, Minister Guo, how do you know so much about what happened back then?" Li Wujiang asked with a smile.

"Secretary Li, when you were handling the Universiade propaganda work, I was working in the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee. Your great achievements are still fresh in our memories."

"This is all in the past, and we caught up with good opportunities at that time. But now with the development of various new media means, propaganda methods are emerging one after another, and the forms are becoming more and more novel. The propaganda department needs to be based on the current reality of Bianzhou and focus on To carry out the current central work, adapt to the current situation and development, serve the current overall work situation, and keep pace with the times. The propaganda department is our ideological department. The propaganda department must ultimately achieve unification of ideas, unite people's hearts, change styles, and demonstrate new trends. Maintain stability and promote development. At the same time, the propaganda department must dare to use the media to monitor government affairs and consult the people.”

"Secretary Li, what you said is great. The municipal party committee should carry out education on the theme of never forgetting the original intention and keeping the mission in mind. Our Propaganda Department will combine the actual situation of Bianzhou and vigorously publicize it through TV, newspapers, the Internet and other social media platforms, so that the majority of cadres and workers will understand Get moving. We will organize comrades from the TV station to carry out undercover activities and focus on exposing some acts of inaction and disorder." Guo Hongwei is a smart man, and he knows what Li Wujiang wants to say when he speaks. He knew that Li Wujiang was most concerned about thematic education work, so he took the initiative to talk about how to do it.

"Okay, the Propaganda Department is indeed working vigorously and resolutely, and can grasp the current main work. While exposing the problems, you should also dig out some positive examples, so that everyone can see that the mainstream of our Bianzhou cadres is good. At the same time, we must pay attention to upwards Submit some promotional videos to let the provincial party committee and the capital see the results of our work. By the way, Minister Guo, Bianzhou City will hold the National Marathon Games in October. Do you know this? "

"Secretary Li, I know about this. In order to establish the sports image of Bianzhou City, the previous municipal party committee leaders decided to hold the National Marathon Games in Bianzhou City, but since the leaders got into trouble, this matter has been shelved."

"Holding the National Marathon Games is a big event and a good thing. If it is well done, it can not only improve the city image and popularity of Bianzhou City, but also play a role in promoting local economic development. This activity still needs to be done. I mean that the Propaganda Department should take the lead and do the preliminary publicity and preparation work."

"Secretary Li, this work is a comprehensive sports work that requires a lot of manpower, material resources, and financial resources. I am worried that the lack of energy of the Propaganda Department alone will affect the overall development of this work." Guo Hongwei is not unwilling to do it, but is worried that this work is not so easy to carry out.

"Minister Guo, don't worry. The Municipal Party Committee will firmly support any work that is beneficial to Bianzhou City. I will ask the Municipal Party Committee Office to bring this up at the next Standing Committee meeting, and then we will do a good job of division of labor and cooperation. The key to holding a marathon event is to create momentum in the early stages. We must hype up this event and promote Bianzhou's sportsmanship and city image through this event. Your Propaganda Department must expand its scope, not only based on Huayuan, but also based on the whole country, and make the marathon event a brand project for Bianzhou. We will hold it not only this year, but every year in the future, so that everyone can participate."

"This event is so big that the expenses in various aspects will be huge. This should be a great pressure on the current finances of Bianzhou."

"You don't have to worry about this. I have talked to Mayor Song about how much money is needed. The funds that should be approved will definitely be in place. Of course, we can also attract sponsorship through multiple channels. Minister Guo, we are not afraid of spending money, but we are afraid that spending money will not attract Golden Phoenix. As long as the money can build up the city image of Bianzhou, I think it is not a problem."

Through this investigation, Li Wujiang quickly got closer to Guo Hongwei. With Li Wujiang's support, the work of the Propaganda Department will be further improved in the future.

Pi Zuowen, director of the Investment Promotion Bureau, brought a group of people from the Investment Promotion Bureau and waited for Li Wujiang's arrival in the courtyard of the Investment Promotion Bureau early. Deputy Mayor Chen Yunda accompanied Li Wujiang to the Investment Promotion Bureau for investigation.

Chapter 729 Investment Promotion Work is Difficult to Satisfy

"Secretary Li, welcome to the Investment Promotion Bureau to investigate and guide the work." Pi Zuowen said with a smile on his face.
