Zhang Zhiyuan looked at Yang Derong's ugly face, nodded his head, and said against his will, "That's right. If I throw away the bullsh * t official position, I should still respectfully call you elder brother, elder senior. I don't have enough experience working at the grassroots level, and you've always been working at the grassroots level. In this aspect, I'm far behind you. I hope I'll need more guidance from you in the future. If there's anything I did wrong, you must point it out and say that it's not poisonous, and I won't say anything else. Admittedly, there might be some misunderstandings between us, but in the end, it's because we don't communicate much. In the future, we should talk more often. "
Zhang Zhiyuan's words made Yang Derong emotional. He waved his hand and said, "What misunderstandings? There's no such thing! I'm usually careless, short-tempered, and straightforward with my words. Perhaps some of my words are harsh or off topic, but I definitely don't have any prejudice against you personally. As long as we walk out of this door, we'll still be good brothers. As for guidance, that's even more out of the question. You're a dignified graduate student, and I'm just a country bumpkin. Asking me to guide you is like showing off in front of an expert, haha! "
The two of them flattered each other, and the atmosphere was much more relaxed than before. Zhang Zhiyuan cut to the chase at the right time, "County Yang, Mayor Su and Ding Changhua also said that the resettlement housing project can't wait. After all, it's related to the interests of the people, and we'll start as soon as spring comes. According to Mayor Su, Lu Yiwei will be in charge of this project. I originally wanted to set up a command center, but Mayor Su rejected it, thinking that it's completely unnecessary. After careful consideration, I'll let Lu Yiwei be the Shiwan Township Party Secretary and Township Head. The purpose of this is to coordinate resources and facilitate better coordination and management. Do you have any objections? "
"No objections!" Yang Derong said straightforwardly, "Since Mayor Su said so, then we'll follow it. Even if Mayor Su didn't say it, this is related to the people's livelihood, so I have to listen to you. "
Zhang Zhiyuan had promised so many conditions, and it was not a problem to arrange for Lu Yiwei. After all, he was someone close to Zhang Zhiyuan, and it was understandable.
Zhang Zhiyuan saw that Yang Derong did not object, and continued, "The resettlement housing project is a big project after all. It involves many departments, and the matters involved are particularly complicated. For example, it would be a big joke if people from other villages were not willing to live in the resettlement houses. This kind of thing had to be done by the local village government to do a good job of ideological work for the masses. If it was a command center, it would be easier to mobilize all the forces. But now, I think it will be very difficult for a village party committee secretary to mobilize all the forces. If we set up a command center, we can mobilize all forces, and if we can, it, we can't do everything, we can do.
Zhang Zhiyuan said a lot, and Yang Derong became more vigilant. He asked tentatively, "What does Secretary Zhang mean?"
Zhang Zhiyuan said straightforwardly, "Give Lu Yiwei enough power, and let him enter the County party committee Standing Committee."
"What?" Yang Derong sat up from the sofa, and he could not believe his ears. He sneered, "Secretary Zhang, did I hear wrongly? You plan to let Lu Yiwei enter the Standing Committee?"
"Yes!" Zhang Zhiyuan said seriously, "This project is our county's key project this year, and it must be completed by the end of the year. In such a short time, if we don't have strong execution and impetus, it will not only affect the people who lost their houses, but also the face of the County party committee. If we lose credibility, how can we maintain good relations with the masses? If it causes a series of mass petitions, the higher-ups will definitely hold us responsible, and who will bear the responsibility? "
Yang Derong was smart, and Zhang Zhiyuan almost beat around the bush. Zhang Zhiyuan only focused on Lu Yiwei, and ignored the role of the county government. He said, "One Lu Yiwei can affect the progress of the entire project? Then why do we need the county government? The coordination is not smooth, and the mechanism is not flexible. We can totally let the deputy mayor in charge of urban construction take charge. I asked Tian Guohua to be stationed in Shiwan Village, and this year he will focus on this matter. "
"Oh," Zhang Zhiyuan's expression changed, and said, "County Yang doesn't trust Lu Yiwei? Or you don't trust Mayor Su? "
"What's the point? It's not even close." Yang Derong said, "Lu Yiwei was only promoted to Section Chief last year, and he has never been the head of a township unit. He was promoted to Shiwan Village as the County Party Committee Secretary, and also the Village Head, which is already an exception. Now he is promoted to the Standing Committee. Not to mention Nanyang, has there ever been a precedent in the whole of Beizhou City? Besides, this kind of promotion is not in line with the relevant regulations. How can we convince others if this gets out? "
"Then what if I say this is Mayor Su's idea?" Zhang Zhiyuan lied.
"This …" Yang Derong suddenly had no idea, and stammered, "This, this is not possible, right?"
"Then I'll call Mayor Su now, and let him talk to you personally." As he spoke, Zhang Zhiyuan pretended to make a phone call.
"Forget it!" Yang Derong did not want to make things awkward with Su Qiming because of this, and said, "If you insist, I have no objections. However, I'm not the only one you're talking about. You're talking about the 300,000 people in the county. As long as they have no objections, I don't mind. "
Zhang Zhiyuan knew that the biggest obstacle in this matter was Yang Derong. As long as he was dealt with, the others only needed to think about it before the Standing Committee was held. There was another big problem, and that was the Municipal Party Committee Secretary, Qin Xiuwen. Zhang Zhiyuan had made up his mind. For Lu Yiwei, he planned to beg Qin Xiuwen once.
"Okay, then it's decided. We'll hold the Standing Committee tomorrow afternoon to discuss it! "Zhang Zhiyuan said firmly. This kind of matter must be resolved quickly. The longer it dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for Lu Yiwei.
As Zhang Zhiyuan and Yang Derong were having a heated discussion, Lu Yiwei was smoking alone in his office. He was thinking about how to carry out his work when he arrived at Shiwan Village. Who would have thought that he would take one step at a time?
Unconventional promotions were not rare at the grassroots level, but it was rare to see a rocket promotion like Lu Yiwei's. If it was in the central government, it was normal for someone to be a deputy division chief at such a young age. However, at the local level, especially in the county, the highest rank was the division chief. There were only two levels of promotion, from the section chief to the division chief. The difficulty was obvious.
Some people had toiled their whole lives and were lucky to be a section chief. A division chief was a phoenix among men, and their ancestors were emitting smoke. Some people would be ordinary people their entire lives, living a muddle-headed life of mediocrity, unable to cause much of a commotion. Like a grain of sand on the beach, a tidal wave would come and sweep them into the sea, drifting everywhere in the vast sea, not knowing where they would go or where their next stop would be.
Lu Yiwei was about to take a crucial step in his life at a critical time. This step was a step away, but no one knew how far it would be. However, the current situation did not seem to be beneficial to him.
Zhang Zhiyuan asked him to choose people, but he could not think of a few suitable ones. Although the older ones like Li Jianwei and Zhao Dongsheng were reliable, they were old foxes in the bureaucracy, and it would not be easy to control them. If they were not handled properly, it was very likely that they would turn against each other, and they would not even be able to be friends.
Furthermore, they were all section chiefs. How would they be arranged to go to Shiwan Village? It would be difficult to satisfy their desires because of their status. It would be fine if they succeeded, but if they failed, it would be a big problem to explain to them.
Considering the people of the same age, none of them were of the same mind as him. The younger one was Wang Xiaodong, but he had just started working and lacked experience. At most, he could only do odd jobs. It would be difficult for him to interact with the masses and coordinate with the leaders of various units.
Finally, he locked his eyes on the Deputy Director of the Finance Bureau, Song Yong, and the Deputy Director of the Government Office, and the Chief of the Logistics Section, Gao Dakuan. After Song Yong was transferred from the Urban Construction Bureau to the Finance Bureau, he fully exerted his ruffian spirit and helped Director Xiao Zhixiong gain a firm foothold. Xiao Zhixiong even thanked him afterwards for choosing the right person. But Song Yong had just gone to the Finance Bureau. Would he go with him? What position would he give him?
When working in the countryside, if you were flashy and impractical, the people would not buy it at all. Instead, they would feel that you were poor and might even refuse to be disciplined. On the contrary, the people would like to use vulgar language and simple and crude working methods. The party newspapers often called for getting along with the masses and building a close relationship between the party and the masses. It was not to put on airs, come down with gifts, and pretend to hold the hands of the people and pose for a few photos to close the relationship. Instead, one should put oneself in the position of the masses and use real feelings to get along with them. Only then could one truly close the relationship.
The feelings of the people were simple. If you showed a warm heart, they would miss you for a lifetime. But farmers always had all kinds of selfish desires. They would not consider the big picture. As long as it did not harm their own interests, they could do whatever they wanted. But once you touched their interests, they might fight back with their lives.
Therefore, working in the countryside was the most complicated and difficult to reconcile contradictions. As a grassroots cadre, one must learn to play Tai Chi. Hitting first and rubbing later was a time-tested working method. If you were tough, he would not dare to fight back. If you were weak, he would not even bother to talk to you. It was perfect to transfer a "ruffian" like Song Yong to work beside him.
Lu Yiwei planned to give Song Yong a big gift by giving him the position of the village head. As long as he was of one mind, he would be a perfect partner.
As for Gao Dakuan, although he was timid and weak, he was very quick-witted, especially when it came to accounting. He handled it well and could not find any flaws. Moreover, this person was not a bad person. If he was in charge of finance, he would be trustworthy. Since he had made up his mind, he planned to meet Gao Dakuan and listen to his thoughts.
