Everything happened so suddenly! Two days later, the Beizhou Municipal Party Committee held a standing committee meeting. Bai Yuxin was appointed to be a member of the Guchuan County party committee and the head of the organization department; Li Xiaochuan, the head of the Second Secretary of the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee, was transferred to be a member of the Maping County party committee and deputy county head; Yang Derong, the member of the Maping County party committee and executive deputy county head, was transferred to be a deputy secretary of the County party committee and acting county head; Kang Dong, the deputy secretary of the Nanyang County party committee, was transferred to be a party secretary of the Municipal Agricultural and Economic Bureau; Ma Feifei, the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, was transferred to be a deputy secretary of the County party committee in Nanyang County … A series of adjustments involved more than 50 people. This was the largest personnel adjustment in the history of Beizhou.
There were four appointments involving Nanyang County, and each adjustment contained a deep mystery. There was not much doubt that Bai Yuxin would be appointed as the head of the organization department in Guchuan County. It had been made public a long time ago. Moreover, it was Tan Lao's doing. There was no suspense at all.
Guo Jinzhu's secretary, Li Xiaochuan, was transferred to Maping County, the richest county in the city. There were many hidden forces competing. First of all, Guo Jinzhu already knew that he was going to be transferred. Before he left, he wanted to make arrangements for the secretary who had been with him for many years. Therefore, he took the opportunity to exchange ideas with Tian Chunqiu and agreed to be transferred. However, Li Xiaochuan's position and position were more or less incomprehensible.
The rich Maping County should have been fought for by Guo Jinzhu. However, the position of deputy county head was not very tempting. At best, it was a transfer, not a promotion. After all, Li Xiaochuan had been a deputy for many years. It should have been done by Tian Chunqiu. Guo Jinzhu naturally did not give in. After some competition, he added a standing committee in front of the deputy county head, which was a compromise. It was obvious that Tian Chunqiu had a lot of opinions about Guo Jinzhu.
Some people would ask, since Guo Jinzhu was going to be the mayor of Xizhou City and was unfamiliar with the place, why did he not bring Li Xiaochuan with him? At least there would be someone to talk to. Why did he choose to stay in Beizhou? This led to an important topic, the relationship between the leader and the secretary. Who was the closest person to the leader?
The conclusion would definitely be shocking, not the secretary, but the chauffeur. Most secretaries had a high degree of education. After a few years of experience, they could hold their own. As the shadow of the leader, most of the matters were handled by the secretary. After a long time, they had a tacit understanding with each other. If one day the leader left the secretary, to the extent that he couldn't take care of himself, the secretary would have to take care of herself. This was not a joke, but reality.
There were pros and cons. If they were too familiar with each other, there would be no secrets between them. Then, as a secretary, the situation would be very dangerous. For example, when Lu Yiwei gave two hundred thousand yuan to Guo Jinzhu for Niu Fuyong, it was Li Xiaochuan who single-handedly planned it. Also, Li Xiaochuan had basically paid a visit to Guo Jinzhu and Ding Changhua's secret. He even knew about Guo Jinzhu's private life. If he continued to keep such a person by his side, it would seriously threaten his authority, and he might even become the target of others who would turn against him. He had to be careful!
Where's the driver? The driver might know more secrets than the secretary, but why did he take the driver away? Most of the drivers were not highly educated, and they did not have high aspirations for official careers. They were satisfied to be able to make some money through their relationship with the leader. They had no other thoughts. Under normal circumstances, the cooperation between the driver and the leader would start from a certain period of time. It could be five years, ten years, or even decades. Basically, they would not be changed midway. After getting along like this, they were basically no different from family. Because the driver relied on the leader to survive, he could only be more loyal to him. What he saw and heard would stop there, and he would never spread it. Even when the leader and the mistress were shaking in the back seat, the driver could calmly continue driving forward. This was trust!
Therefore, when the leader went to the next stop, he would take the driver away, and the secretary would stay. Of course, there were exceptions.
Besides, the executive deputy mayor of Maping County, Yang Derong, was transferred to Nanyang County. This should be considered an exceptional promotion. According to the practice of Bei Zhou City, promotions were based on seniority, and people were selected from specific circles. For example, the position of the county mayor was usually chosen from the deputy secretary of the County party committee, and rarely from the standing committee. It could be seen that Yang Derong was highly regarded by Tian Chunqiu. Yang Derong was experienced, overbearing, and famous in the Bei Zhou area. This time, when he was transferred to Nanyang County, Tian Chunqiu's move could be said to be shrewd and farsighted. He planned to use Yang Derong to contain Zhang Zhiyuan. It was a brilliant move.
The most inexplicable transfer was Kang Dong. This person was like a ghost, magically wandering in the officialdom. There were no results, but the promotion was lightning fast. Last year, he was a "businessman" who had just entered the political scene. Now, he had become the head of the city's Agricultural Bureau. It could be said to be a miracle. Of course, all this was the result of Tian Chunqiu's protection. Why? This was a secret between the two of them. When Tian Chunqiu was considering the transfer to the Agricultural Bureau, he had probably thought about it over and over again. He had to be promoted, but he could not attract too much attention. A small unit like the Agricultural Bureau would not cause criticism. It was the best shelter for Kang Dong to avoid the limelight. Of course, it was just a stop, and he could soon set sail again.
For this kind of "lightning fast" promotion, one could only sigh.
Finally, there was Ma Feifei, the secretary of the Tian Municipal Party Committee. This person was known by everyone in Bei Zhou City, and should be counted as a local "star." Many years ago, she was originally a Dan role in the city's Beijing Opera Troupe, mainly singing Tsing Yi. Her best song was the role of Qin Xianglian in "The Beautiful Case." Her skilled singing, soft figure, and handsome face broke many people's hearts, and she became a famous big star. Fame was naturally valuable. In the past, it was for the common people, but later, it was for the leaders. After a while, she got rid of Tsing Yi and entered the political scene. As for the people who specially came in, you know!
Some people said that Ma Feifei had a "demonic aura," and a "coquettish vixen." Almost any man who came in contact with her would be fascinated by her. Some people even called her "Dai Daihong," because no matter which leader came, she would be like a fish in water. She would not be stagnant because of the previous leader, but would improve very quickly. As a matter of fact, she, who had no grassroots experience, came here to gain experience. As expected, just like Kang Dong, she was quickly transferred.
After reading about the personnel adjustment in Nanyang County, Zhang Zhiyuan felt that it was unbelievable. Because before the adjustment, no one discussed it with him. At the very least, he should have asked for his opinion. This was great, no matter if he wanted it or not, it was forced to him. However, after seeing Li Xiaochuan's appointment, Zhang Zhiyuan did not have much hope. It was obvious that Guo Jinzhu had lost power.
In addition, when Zhang Zhiyuan called Guo Jinzhu, he did not pick up, and he was nowhere to be seen. His whereabouts were extremely strange. Did he not even want to see him anymore? Because of the changes in the city, Zhang Zhiyuan also sped up the pace. He temporarily held a standing committee meeting and symbolically adjusted a few people. He also asked for Lu Yiwei's opinion and promoted him to a leader at the level of section chief. He was to be appointed as the Executive Deputy Minister of the Organization Department and also the Deputy Director of the County party committee Office. This appointment was a very "adjustment" in Nanyang.
That night, the province also held a standing committee meeting, and more than 10 appointment and dismissal notices were also issued. Just as Bai Yuxin said, Guo Jinzhu was transferred to Xi Zhou City as the Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee and the Acting Mayor; Li Hugang, the Director of the Municipal People's Congress, was transferred to the Provincial People's Congress as the Director of the Urban Construction and Environmental Protection Commission. The vacant positions were not filled, which left too much suspense.
Guo Jinzhu's adjustment was a little confusing. Was he promoted? He was promoted! But he went to Xi Zhou City. According to his plan, he would be promoted on the spot. Seeing that things did not go as he wished, he was directly transferred, which caught him off guard. No matter what, Guo Jinzhu firmly supported the decision of the province. He carried his luggage and set off. So far, the "hardliners" in Bei Zhou's officialdom had all been purged, and the "locals" had also begun to dilute their power. It seemed that the higher-ups were very clear about the dynamics of Bei Zhou's officialdom.
Li Hugang's power was taken away and transferred to a committee of the Provincial People's Congress. Why? In fact, this was entirely Li Hugang's own will. Last time, Zhang Zhiyuan had ruthlessly stabbed him in the back, involving too many secrets and incidents, which had already greatly damaged his vitality. If he did not retire soon, it was estimated that it would not be long before he became "food on the plate".
This time, two positions were empty in Bei Zhou City, and it was another desperate struggle for power. However, this situation was quickly broken. Even more shocking news came, which made all the onlookers' jaws drop.
The Municipal Party Committee Secretary Tian Chunqiu was urgently transferred! He was transferred to the Provincial Poverty Alleviation Office as the Director. Why was this? No one understood what was going on.
The situation of Bei Zhou City's leadership was unstable, and the people in the various units did not dare to act rashly. They were all watching from the other side, waiting for the latest news. Tian Chunqiu's urgent transfer was not a clear signal. Such a decision was usually made when there was a major accident or a major mistake in decision-making, or when there was a major problem somewhere that required a capable frontline to put out the fire. Obviously, it was not the latter. The Poverty Alleviation Office was not a unit that would take lives. What major matter could there be? It could only be the former. So the question was, what had happened? Why was there a separate order to transfer Tian Chunqiu?
The attitude of the higher-ups was vague, so the people below began to speculate. Some people said that there was a problem with the construction of the new district, but this project was Mayor Lin's responsibility, so it had little to do with him. There were also people who said that a large number of sudden promotions of leading cadres had angered the higher-ups, so they punished him. There were even people who said that Tian Chunqiu's corruption and womanizing had been exposed, so the higher-ups had urgently transferred him to protect him … Everyone followed the flow, but no one stepped on the main point.
As soon as Tian Chunqiu left, the problem arose. Did the people who were promoted earlier still count? This was the question that most people on the list were concerned about. However, the province did not give any opinions, so they could only wait. Waiting at such a juncture was undoubtedly sitting on the crater of a volcano, and the people who waited were physically and mentally haggard.
Unknowingly, the National Day arrived in a haze of anxiety …
