Morning.
It was before 10 am.
The County's Party Committee Meeting is about to be held, and Dong Xuebing was the one who suggested it.
Many people do not understand what Dong Xuebing is thinking. The City and Provincial Government are against Dong Xuebing, and this cannot be kept a secret. Zhang Dongfang's men also spread the news, and almost everyone knows about this. Without the support of the higher-ups, Dong Xuebing is still a government official from another province. Even if he is the County's top leader, the situation in Jiaolin County is not looking good for him. To everyone, no matter what the relationship between Dong Xuebing and Zhang Dongfang is, there will be a showdown. Now, Mayor Zhang has the upper hand. If he uses this opportunity to put Dong Xuebing in his place during the Party Committee meeting, he will have won. That's why most leaders in Dong Xuebing's position will drag the meeting for as long as possible. They will first familiarize themselves with the environment and communicate with the leaders they can get on their side before calling the Party Committee meeting. This is the only way for Dong Xuebing to gain the upper hand. Everyone thinks this is the only way for Dong Xuebing to gain the upper hand.
But Dong Xuebing did not!
Instead, he called for the Party Committee meeting on the morning of his first official day at work. He did not drag the meeting, and he can't wait!
Meng Hanmei and Su Yan were worried about Zhang Dongfang. How will Dong Xuebing handle the meeting? What can he do? Dong Xuebing had not even spoken to the other County's leaders, and he does not have enough influence. If this carries on, he will be in a passive position. The first face-off is the most important, and it will determine who will have the upper hand in the future. If he fails the first face-off, his subordinates will follow suit. It will be a vicious cycle, and it will be hard for him to make a comeback. Others might think Dong Xuebing is weaker than Mayor Zhang. If a County's Party Secretary cannot even control the County's situation, he will be transferred soon. At that time, Zhang Dongfang will be able to replace Dong Xuebing and step on his corpse to become Jiaolin County's Party Secretary.
Too abrupt.
Too thoughtless.
Those with some political wisdom felt Dong Xuebing was too young and frivolous.
… …
Mayor's office.
Zhang Dongfang was still deep in his thoughts when the County's Party Committee's Head, Han Wu, knocked on the door and entered.
"Mayor." Han Wu's expression was a little strange.
Zhang Dongfang nodded. "You're here?"
Han Wu did not beat around the bush. "Secretary Dong wants to hold a Party Committee meeting? So fast? "
Zhang Dongfang glanced at the watch on his chubby arm. "Yes, ten minutes left."
"What is he thinking?" Han Wu really didn't understand. "He just wants to appoint and promote his secretary? Wouldn't it be fine if they just bumped into each other? Moreover, there's no hurry. If the promotion process doesn't go through, the secretary he appointed will definitely be his secretary. Why must he go through the standing committee so soon? "
Zhang Dongfang pondered for a moment and shook his head. "I don't know. I don't know much about his style and work style."
Han Wu paused for a moment. "I think he's just too young and can't keep his cool."
Zhang Dongfang declined to comment and said, "Who knows? Let's open it then."
Han Wu blinked. "Then do you think we should … give him a show of strength?"
Zhang Dongfang waved his hand without hesitation. "No. Let's wait and see first. He can't keep his cool, but we have to keep our cool, right?"
Han Wu was puzzled. "Are we going to let this opportunity go?"
Zhang Dongfang looked at him. "I said it's not good to give him a warning, but I did not say we can't use a gentler method. Oh, is the Finance Department's Deputy Chief still available? Old Liu had retired. Is the personnel selection done? "
Han Wu immediately understood what Dong Xuebing meant. "Yes."
Zhang Dongfang did not say much. "That's good."
The two of them had worked together for many years, so they naturally understood each other's intentions. There was no need to say much.
Knock … knock … Someone knocked on the door, and the County's Deputy Party Secretary, Wei Zhixuan, entered. "Oh, Minister Han is here too?"
Han Wu smiled and greeted. "Secretary Wei."
Wei Zhixuan and Zhang Dongfang seem to be close. He sat down and looked at Zhang Dongfang. "What's up?"
Zhang Dongfang replied. "Let's test him first."
Wei Zhixuan nodded and knew what to do.
Actually, all of them did not expect Dong Xuebing to call for a Party Committee meeting so soon and did not make any preparations.
… …
10 am sharp.
County Party Committee Meeting Room.
The door was open, and people started to enter.
Dong Xuebing only arrived one minute after Mayor Zhang Dongfang entered the meeting room. He had done it on purpose as the County's Party Secretary has his privileges. If he arrived earlier than the rest, how can he show off his status as the County's Party Secretary? It's the same everywhere. The seating arrangement, who comes first, who comes last, and who leaves last, are all regulated by the government.
Dong Xuebing entered, and his secretary, Su Yan, closed the door.
After Dong Xuebing sat down, Su Yan sat in a corner with a notebook. The County's Party Secretary has the right to take minutes of the meeting.
Dong Xuebing looked around and smiled. "Everyone is here? Let's start the meeting. I don't have anything important today, and I called for this meeting is to get to know all of you. At the same time, we can get to know each other better. Hmmm … I will go first … "Dong Xuebing introduced himself and did not brag about his past achievements. He only said some ordinary things.
After that, Dong Xuebing looks at Zhang Dongfang, who had been quiet all this while. "Mayor Zhang, you also want to say something?"
Zhang Dongfang nodded and said. "Ok. I will also introduce myself …"
The 11 County's Party Committee members introduced themselves one by one. Their introduction was very conservative because most of them were not here. They were more concerned about what will happen next. They want to know what Secretary Dong and Mayor Zhang will do. Hmmm … or it should be said that they want to see how Mayor Zhang and Secretary Dong will deal with it. After all, Mayor Zhang has the upper hand in this situation. Secretary Dong's appointment as the Chairman of the Party Committee made many people look down on him and felt he was immature. Actually, before Secretary Dong was appointed as the Chairman of the Party Committee, the result was already decided. It's fine for a young man to be the head of a department, Deputy Mayor, or Deputy Party Secretary. But to be the County's Party Secretary? Some people still felt he was not qualified.
After all the introductions were over, it's time for the meeting.
The Head of the Organization Department, Han Wu, distributed the documents in his hands and said. "The Organization Department had come in for some inspections, mainly to fill some vacancies. For the time being, the Deputy Chief of the Secretarial Department, Su Yan, will be promoted to the County's Party Committee Office's Deputy Chief."
Su Yan was listening at the back and did not say a word.
Dong Xuebing nodded and pretended to flip through Su Yan's file. "Let's have a talk?"
Meng Hanmei was the first to say. "Section Chief Su is hardworking and is warm-hearted. He is well-liked and works hard. This position is the most suitable for him."
Deputy Party Secretary Wei Zhixuan said. "Xiao Su is not bad."
In the end, Mayor Zhang Dongfang also said. "I also agree."
Dong Xuebing calmly said. "Alright. That's settled. Let's start the procedures."
Han Wu nodded and took out a pen to record on the document.
No one will object to this appointment because it was the County's Party Committee Secretary selecting a Secretary. No matter how strained their relationship was, Zhang Dongfang's people will not object to this appointment directly. If they do that, it will not be disrespecting Dong Xuebing. It will be disrespecting the organization that appointed Dong Xuebing. If Zhang Dongfang objected to this appointment, it will be the conflict between Dong Xuebing and Zhang Dongfang. Either Dong Xuebing or Zhang Dongfang will be transferred, and there is a high chance that Zhang Dongfang will be transferred. Zhang Dongfang will not do this. Even if Zhang Dongfang wants to find problems with Su Yan, he will not do it in the Party Committee meeting. At most, he will look for Su Yan's problems in private and report it to the Commission for Discipline Inspection. This is the most suitable procedure. Of course, this is only an example. Although the leaders do not think much of Su Yan, they know this young man will not have financial problems.
This appointment had been approved.
Han Wu continued. "The Finance Department's Deputy Bureau Chief had retired, and this position is still vacant. A while ago, the Organization had interviewed the candidates. There should be 3 candidates, but one of them had applied for a long leave due to family issues. There are only 2 candidates left. One of them is the Finance Department's Office Chief, Liu Ping, and the other is the Audit Department's Section Chief, Sun Anshi. The organization did not interview them and felt that Liu Ping is more suitable. After all, he is also from the Finance Department and does not need to familiarize himself with his work. His age, experience, and capabilities are all suitable. Sun Anshi is also a good candidate. But he is slightly … … younger."
Younger?
These words did not sound quite right to the ears.
Meng Hanmei frowned and looked at Dong Xuebing.
Su Yan also felt uncomfortable. What is the meaning of this? Is this a warning to Dong Xuebing? Is he trying to say Dong Xuebing is too young and inexperienced?
But Dong Xuebing was smiling and did not react. He might have heard more from this conversation.
The other leaders also understood what was going on. Dong Xuebing was supposed to meet with everyone and appoint a Secretary. But in the end, Han Wu suggested another appointment.
