Yang Derong moved his fat body and sat up. He patted the microphone and said, "Then let me say a few words. The purpose of selecting the Deputy Mayor is good, and I agree with it very much. Presumably, Secretary Zhang had also racked his brains to select the best talents. However, I think there are some unreasonable parts in the design process of this plan. "
As soon as he said this, the members of the Standing Committee all held their breath. They secretly glanced at Zhang Zhiyuan who was sitting there smoking, waiting for Yang Derong to say something shocking.
Yang Derong continued, "The points system sounds good, but it's like chewing wax when you think about it. It can't stand up to scrutiny. For example, the Chairman of the Federation of the Disabled, Wang Zhonggang, completely meets the requirements for this selection. His age is also within this range. Whether it is the length of service or the honor he has received, I can't guarantee that he will be at the top. He is coming in. Do you choose or not? If you choose, he is a driver and doesn't have much knowledge. Moreover, he has always been working in the Federation of the Disabled. How can he be qualified for government work? If you don't choose, we will violate the rules we set. Will others talk behind our backs?
Also, what do you mean by making special contributions? Isn't it flexible? The Director of the Earthquake Bureau has been working for his whole life, and there has never been an earthquake in Nanyang County. Does that mean he has no special contributions? I think it's unfair to him. Another example is the Weather Bureau. He does regular work every year. How can he be special? "
The more Yang Derong spoke, the more excited he became. He completely ignored Zhang Zhiyuan's expression. Pei Qifeng, who was sitting at the side, kept coughing to remind him, but he still had no intention of stopping. He continued, "Government work has its own special characteristics. There is no room for false promises. Everything has to be done. It's fine if there are no problems. But if there are problems, it is the government's responsibility. If we don't select a responsible person, how can we do this work? So, I reserve my personal opinion on this plan. "
Yang Derong stood on the opposite side, which made it difficult for the other members of the Standing Committee. Should they raise their hands or not when the vote is passed?
Zhang Zhiyuan wasn't prepared for Yang Derong's attack at all. He didn't mention it in the previous communication. What was his purpose of attacking on such an occasion? Zhang Zhiyuan didn't intend to give him any face since he didn't want to give him any face. He didn't explain at all and moved on to the next stage. "Well, my comrades have spoken well. Let's vote." He raised his hand.
Although Ma Feifei had different opinions, compared to Yang Derong, she preferred Zhang Zhiyuan. She also raised her hand.
Publicity Head Pei Qifeng and Organization Head Yan Dongsen raised their hands without hesitation.
A suffocating scene appeared. Xiao Dingyuan, Liao Minyuan, and Tian Guohua, who had just said that they had no opinion, were all hesitant. Tian Guohua wanted to do it, but he remembered that he was under Yang Derong's direct leadership, so he hesitated. Liao Minyuan wanted to be a good person and not offend either side. He was hesitating. Xiao Dingyuan should have supported Zhang Zhiyuan, but he once again stood on the opposite side. He clenched his fists tightly and didn't speak.
There were originally nine members of the Standing Committee, but the Armed Forces Minister Yang Baogang had taken a leave of absence, so there was an even number. Now that it was four to four, the atmosphere in the meeting room became even more tense.
"I abstain!" Tian Guohua made a choice at the crucial moment and let Zhang Zhiyuan pass this plan with a slight advantage.
Seeing this, Zhang Zhiyuan's heart sank. The person who disappointed him the most was Xiao Dingyuan. What was he trying to do?
Zhang Zhiyuan was in a bad mood and said, "Well, put it down. According to the principle of democratic centralism, this plan is passed. After the meeting, Secretary Ma called a meeting with the relevant people and distributed the plan in the form of a document. Next, let's move on to the second topic. Comrade Dongsen, please speak. "
Yan Dongsen briefly introduced Wei Guoqiang's situation. Zhang Zhiyuan took over the topic and said in a serious tone, "Letting Comrade Wei Guoqiang participate is the city's opinion. It's fine if he agrees, but it's fine if he doesn't. There's no room for discussion. If that comrade has any objections, go directly to the city and vote on it. "
Everyone seemed to hear the tough tone in Zhang Zhiyuan's voice and knew that he was unhappy. They timidly raised their hands. Yang Derong still didn't raise his hand. Instead, he leaned on the chair and stared blankly. Everyone else raised their hands.
"Well, then it's passed. Meeting dismissed!" After that, Zhang Zhiyuan stood up, picked up the cup on the table and strode out.
After Zhang Zhiyuan left, the other members of the Standing Committee sat there quietly and didn't dare to breathe. Yang Derong looked at the ceiling and sneered. He pressed his hands on the table and stood up. Then, he swaggered out with his hands behind his back. At this time, the other members of the Standing Committee stood up one after another and walked out dejectedly.
This was the most intense meeting that Lu Yiwei had ever experienced. He saw the strength of the members of the Standing Committee secretly competing with each other, especially the open battle between Yang Derong and Zhang Zhiyuan. This was a rare situation. After all, the Standing Committee was a serious meeting. Without prior communication, no one would attend the meeting. Although democracy came first in democratic centralism, centralization was the ultimate goal. This unfriendly signal had once again circled around the vicious circle of the Party Secretary and the County Mayor's discord.
However, Zhang Zhiyuan's performance today was unusually tough. This was something that Lu Yiwei had never seen before. However, it was not easy to subdue Yang Derong. He firmly believed that the selection of the Deputy County Mayor was the main battlefield between the two of them. It was still uncertain who would win.
Zhang Zhiyuan returned to his office with a belly full of anger and sat down heavily in front of his desk. He originally wanted to give face to Yang Derong, but now it seemed that there was no need to do so. He planned to adjust the plan. He must not let Xu Wannian, the Director of the Finance Bureau, who was supported by Yang Derong, be elected. He also wanted to cut off the Deputy County Mayor after the selection was over. He wanted to show Xu Wannian who was more powerful!
Zhang Zhiyuan was sulking. No one dared to go in, including Lu Yiwei. After half an hour, Lu Yiwei cautiously walked in. Seeing that Zhang Zhiyuan's anger had subsided, he sighed with relief. He went forward to add water and whispered, "Secretary Zhang, just now the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee informed me that there will be a meeting at 8 am tomorrow."
"Oh." Zhang Zhiyuan rubbed his face with both hands and said, "What meeting? Who will attend? "
Lu Yiwei said, "It's about the winter forest protection and fire prevention. Secretary Qin will attend personally."
"Oh, I see." Zhang Zhiyuan was slightly tired.
When Lu Yiwei was about to go out, Zhang Zhiyuan suddenly said, "Ask Xiao Dingyuan to come to my office."
Lu Yiwei knew what was going on, so he nodded and left. After a few steps, he heard Zhang Zhiyuan shouting, "Come back!" He turned back. Zhang Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "Forget it. You go ahead with your work. Ask Guo Kai to prepare the car. I will go back to the city now."
What happened at the Standing Committee meeting spread like wildfire. Some people were happy, while others were sad. The most angry person was Wang Zhonggang, the Chairman of the Federation of the Disabled. He was humiliated by Yang Derong at the meeting and became a laughing stock. Wang Zhonggang was not convinced. He did not want to participate in the election, but this time he wanted to participate in the election. He wanted to teach Yang Derong a lesson. He used to be a driver, but he could still be the County Mayor!
Although the official plan had not been released, many people already had a "manuscript" in their hands. They were counting their scores according to the conditions in the plan. Some people counted with their fingers and found that they had more than 80 points. They were very happy and had high hopes of running for the Deputy County Mayor.
At night, Lu Yiwei quickly became a busy man. Even if he was cut into eight pieces, he would not be able to distribute them all. He had to treat everyone to a meal, hoping that he could interpret Zhang Zhiyuan's next move. Lu Yiwei couldn't afford to offend all of them, but he still agreed to the request of his old friends, Li Jianwei and Zhao Dongsheng, the Deputy Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, to have dinner at the Damselfly Restaurant.
After seeing Lu Yiwei, Li Jianwei could not wait to take out the "manuscript" and put it in front of Lu Yiwei. He said eagerly, "Yiwei, can you calculate for me? See if I am qualified?"
Lu Yiwei knew Li Jianwei's situation like the back of his hand. He had calculated for Li Jianwei when he was drafting the plan. Li Jianwei basically had no chance, but Zhao Dongsheng still had a chance. He did not want to hurt Li Jianwei's feelings, so he pretended to say, "You don't need me to calculate for you. You can calculate for yourself."
Li Jianwei said in a panic, "I have calculated. There is no chance at all."
It seemed that he knew his place. Lu Yiwei said helplessly, "This is decided by the county. I can't do anything about it."
"Is there any way to remedy it?" Li Jianwei asked, trying to grasp the last straw.
"Yes!" Lu Yiwei said with certainty, "The standing committee members still have points. If you have the ability, you can go to them one by one. They have a large proportion of points. You were the last one, but if the standing committee members vote for you, you will be the first one."
Li Jianwei was suddenly discouraged. He sat there listlessly and sighed, "I thought it was fair this time, but in the end, it is still not fair."
Lu Yiwei said, "Then what do you think is fair? Even if it is not fair this time, at least you have the right to participate. If it is decided directly, you will not even dare to think about it. I think it is more fair. "
Zhao Dongsheng said, "Jianwei, I say don't fight for it. Can you win Xu Wannian or Gao Bowen? Stop dreaming. Look at me, I don't even think about it. I am so relaxed. "
"Alas!" Li Jianwei sighed, "But I am not reconciled. Why? I have worked in the government for most of my life. How am I worse than them? Why can't I run for it? "Although he said it, he had already given up.
While they were in the restaurant, Lu Yiwei's phone was still ringing, making both of them restless. Zhao Dongsheng laughed, "Tonight, I don't know how many people can't sleep. I guess they are all huddled together to discuss countermeasures. Haha."
Lu Yiwei answered a call every now and then, and Li Jianwei finally chased him away. "Alright, go and do your work. Out of sight, out of mind. Let's go home too!" After that, he ran home angrily without eating a single bite of the food.
