Lu Yiwei could not believe his ears when he heard this explosive news. Impossible, absolutely impossible! He had just been promoted to Section Chief. How could he be promoted again in such a short period of time, let alone to be a regular member? Besides, Zhang Zhiyuan had just talked to him and asked him to come to Shiwan Village. It had only been a while, and now it had evolved into such an unbelievable version. If he really wanted to be a regular member, Zhang Zhiyuan would definitely tell him that they were just making groundless accusations.
Lu Yiwei smiled helplessly. He threw his phone on the table and prepared to call Song Yong.
At this moment, Office Director Xu Jingye rushed in like a cannonball. He said as soon as he entered, "Minister Lu, congratulations."
Lu Yiwei looked at him in disgust and said, "How many times have I told you to knock before entering? I can't be bothered to reprimand you for being so impudent."
Xu Jingye retreated to the door, poked his head in, and knocked on the door. He grinned and said, "Minister Lu, can I come in?"
"Come in!"
"Minister Lu, congratulations. You will be a member of the Standing Committee soon. Please take care of me in the future." Xu Jingye cupped his fist and said.
"Who did you hear this from?" Lu Yiwei was puzzled and said, "Director Xu, you are an old member. Don't you know any organizational discipline? How can you say things without any basis?"
Xu Jingye loved to inquire about gossip. As long as there was any movement in the County party committee building, he would know. He scratched his head awkwardly and said, "I heard that you are going to be promoted, so I came to congratulate you in advance."
Another person said that he was going to be a regular member. Could it be true? But why did he not know anything about it? Thinking of this, he could not help but feel nervous and asked, "Who did you hear this from?"
Xu Jingye said in a low voice, "This morning, Secretary Zhang and County Yang had a meeting together. Secretary Zhang suggested to let you be a regular member of the Standing Committee as Shiwan Village's Party Committee Secretary and Mayor. You have achieved everything in one go. We can only look at your back and feel inferior. "
Lu Yiwei was still confused and in disbelief.
"Minister Lu, don't forget about me after you've been promoted. Although I've only been serving you for a short period of time, I've always been loyal to you. Can you take me with you when you leave? Don't worry, I will serve you wholeheartedly, "Xu Jingye said shamelessly.
"…"
Xu Jingye saw Lu Yiwei's unhappy face and thought that he was too impatient. He quickly said, "Minister Lu, I was just joking. Please don't take it seriously."
"You can leave now. I have other things to do." Lu Yiwei directly asked him to leave.
Xu Jingye reluctantly left, and the phone on the desk rang one after another. There were calls from Xiao Zhixiong from the Finance Bureau and Luo Zhiqing from the Public Security Bureau. Needless to say, they were all calling to inquire about this matter. For a moment, Lu Yiwei was at a loss and didn't know what to do. Could it be that all of this was real?
He couldn't call Zhang Zhiyuan to ask. After thinking for a long time, he called Xiao Yang.
"Hello, Xiao Yang. Is Secretary Zhang busy now?" Lu Yiwei said anxiously.
Xiao Yang said, "Secretary Zhang left after the meeting. He didn't say where he was going."
After hanging up, Lu Yiwei felt even more uneasy. He switched the annoying phone to silent, lit a cigarette, and paced around the room. After thinking for a long time, he finally took out another phone and called Zhang Zhiyuan. After the call was connected, Lu Yiwei was so nervous that he didn't know what to say. Zhang Zhiyuan said, "What's up?"
Lu Yiwei's mind was blank. He stammered, "Zhang … Secretary Zhang, are you in your office? I have something to discuss with you."
"Oh, I'm going to the city. We'll talk when I get back." Zhang Zhiyuan obviously didn't know that their conversation had become a hot topic in Nanyang.
Getting Lu Yiwei to join the County Party Committee was his goal. Zhang Zhiyuan had been thinking about it for a long time. The decision he made today was an impromptu idea, and he was forced by Yang Derong. His original idea was to let Lu Yiwei be the director of the County Party Committee Office, and then smoothly join the County Party Committee. But the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. The higher-ups were already working on their own things. Maybe they would leave one day. If he couldn't settle Lu Yiwei before he left, he wouldn't be able to live with his conscience. After the meeting, he went straight to the city, intending to meet the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Qin Xiuwen. This time, he had to settle this matter at all costs.
Because the result of the matter was not clear, he didn't tell Lu Yiwei. But he didn't know that Yang Derong had already spread the news everywhere. It didn't matter if he spread the news, but it caused a strong reaction among the County leaders. Especially the veteran revolutionaries who had worked hard all their lives to get to the position of Deputy Director, they couldn't agree with Zhang Zhiyuan's decision. Just as Zhang Zhiyuan was on his way to the city, some people who were on good terms with Zhang Zhiyuan were already mobilizing the retired cadres to stop this "muddle-headed" decision.
"Why? Lu Yiwei has made so many contributions. Just because he is the favorite of the Secretary of the County Party Committee, he can trample on all the rules, bypass the personnel system, and promote Lu Yiwei illegally. What will the veteran comrades who have contributed their whole lives think about this? No way! "
"Damn! He became the Secretary of the Party Committee in one step, and now he wants to join the County Party Committee. This is like riding on a rocket. Zhang Zhiyuan is obviously appointing people based on merit. We can't let him get away with it! "
For a moment, the voices of crusade were everywhere. Some people wanted to go to the County to petition, and some wanted to write a joint letter to the city and the province to denounce and attack Lu Yiwei … All of this was because of Zhang Zhiyuan's casual words. Yang Derong purposely stopped Zhang Zhiyuan's "absurd" action and purposely set up a trap.
What was the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee? Who was it made up of? What exactly did it do? How was it different from other leaders? And how was it created? The full name of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee was the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee of the Chinese Communist Party. The County Party Committee, as a local leading body, was the highest leading body in political life. The Standing Committee of the County Party Committee was the collective decision-making body of the city, which played a leading role in the county's economy, culture, education, science, health, and other work.
Under normal circumstances, the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee was made up of an odd number of 9 or 11 members. This was set up to follow the system of democratic centralism, in which the minority followed the majority, to avoid the situation of a tie in democratic decision-making. The members were generally the Secretary of the County Party Committee, the Head of the County, the Deputy Secretary of the County Party Committee, the Executive Deputy Head of the County, the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, the Head of the Organization Department, the Head of the Publicity Department, the Deputy Head of the County Party Committee who was in charge of more work, the Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, the Minister of the Armed Forces, the Minister of the United Front, and the Director of the County Party Committee. Among them, the Minister of the United Front and the Director of the County Party Committee were more flexible, but if the Minister of the United Front did not join the Standing Committee, he would serve as the Deputy Chairman of the County People's Political Consultative Conference.
Of course, some places had different settings depending on the situation. Some places included the Secretary of the Party Committee of the key towns in the Standing Committee, and some included the Chairman of the Federation of Trade Unions, the Director of the Women's Federation, the Secretary of the Public Security Bureau of the Political and Legal System, and the Secretary of the Agriculture Committee of the Commission of Agriculture. But most of them had no more than 11 members.
As for the ranking, except for the Secretary of the County Party Committee, the Head of the County, and the Deputy Secretary of the County Party Committee, the rest of the Standing Committee were determined according to their seniority or years of service. Whoever joined earlier would be at the front. There were also places that were ranked according to the size of their authority, such as the Organization Department, the Commission for Discipline Inspection, and the Political and Legal Committee. The ranking determined the right to speak, which could be seen from the seating and the order of the speeches.
The county leaders that people often talked about generally referred to the four sets of leaders of the County Party Committee, the People's Congress, the Government, and the People's Political Consultative Conference. Specifically, the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee could be considered the real leaders of the County. They had decision-making power and voting power in their hands, so of course they were the County Leaders.
The Standing Committee of the County Party Committee was a permanent body during the closing of a certain Party Congress, and was mainly responsible for the collective decision-making of some major matters. Under normal circumstances, the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee was nominated by the higher organization department, and the County Party Committee members were elected by the Party Congress, and then selected from among the committee members. In special circumstances, the Standing Committee could be directly appointed by the higher Party Committee. It was a little confusing to hear. In short, the Municipal Party Committee had the crucial decision-making power of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee.
If Lu Yiwei wanted to enter the Standing Committee, he had to get the nod of approval from the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Qin Xiuwen, and convene a Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee for approval. Only then would it be legal for the appointment to be made by the organization department of the Municipal Party Committee. During this period, there was also a series of cumbersome procedures such as organizing inspections, meetings, and announcements. Of course, as long as the leader gave the nod of approval, everything would take its course.
Every appointment decision must not be done carelessly, but every procedure and step must not be left out. If there was a problem in one of the links, it could very well be ruined.
Zhang Zhiyuan did not have much confidence in this impromptu decision. However, the words had already been said. No matter how difficult the difficulties were, they had to be overcome. On the way to the city, he called Xu Caimao, the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee of Dongzhou City. After several pleas, the other party agreed to come over for dinner that night. With Xu Caimao's appearance, the matter was basically half done. To be on the safe side, Zhang Zhiyuan also invited the Mayor of Xi Zhou City, Guo Jinzhu, and the Deputy Director of the Provincial Department of Construction, Bai Zongfeng. With the presence of these important people, no matter how harsh Qin Xiuwen was, he had to give them face.
Of course, everything that Zhang Zhiyuan did was not known to Lu Yiwei. Could it be that Zhang Zhiyuan was one of the 'benefactors' that Half Immortal Xu mentioned before he left?
Happiness came so suddenly that Lu Yiwei was caught unprepared. He locked the office door and sat alone on the sofa in a daze. He took out his phone several times, wanting to call Zhang Zhiyuan again, but did not dare to make the call.
Throughout the morning, his phone rang countless times, and the door was knocked countless times. Lu Yiwei hid in the room and did not make a sound. When it was time to get off work, he did not dare to go out. When almost everyone had left, he quickly went downstairs like a thief, jumped into his car and sped away.
Back home, Lu Yiwei went straight to the second floor and told his parents that he was not at home no matter who came to look for him. Before the matter was settled, he did not intend to see anyone.
Lu Yiwei had just laid on the bed in a mess when his phone rang again. He was about to turn it off impatiently when he saw that it was his sister, Lu Ling, and picked it up.
"Hello, brother, are you free tonight?"
"What's wrong?" Lu Yiwei was puzzled.
"Zhong Ming said that the meeting time has been brought forward to tonight."
Lu Yiwei was already in a mess, and he was infuriated. He said angrily, "Didn't we agree to meet on the 20th of the first month? Why is it brought forward again? Is it his family getting a daughter-in-law or ours? Why is it so convenient? "
"Brother, what's wrong?" Lu Ling said, "You know his family's situation. It's not easy for them to get together. It just so happens that today is his grandmother's birthday. His parents got together and agreed to meet tonight. I know it's not good, but there's no other way. "
Hearing that Lu Ling was about to cry, Lu Yiwei hurriedly comforted him, "Alright, alright. I was wrong just now. I shouldn't have gotten angry at you. Since the other party has decided, I'll go over tonight. What should I bring for his parents? "
"You don't have to worry about that. I've prepared everything. You just need to come over. You'd better come over early. I have something to tell you. "
