Xiao Lu, who was in charge of recording the meeting minutes, immediately closed the heavy door and took a pen and paper to a corner.
Seems like even with Chief Yan's support, Guo Panwei does not have enough votes!
"There are a lot of things to discuss today. First of all …" Yan Liang, who presided over the meeting, was not like the other leaders who started talking about the Party, the Central Committee, policies, and whatnot. Instead, he did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point. "A while ago, when You 'anmen was demolished, the bungalows in front of our guest house were all demolished. Our subordinates generally feel that the location of the guest house is too conspicuous and not suitable for intelligence personnel to rest. Hmm, what do you all think?"
Yang Yizhong's loud voice was the first to ring out, "It's time to move. Besides, that's an old building that's decades old."
Pang Bin could tell that Political Commissar Zhou is determined to get the position of General Affairs Office Deputy Chief.
"… … Next is a proposal on personnel matters. Chief Pang." Yan Liang and the rest of the leaders moved the document to the back.
The next one. 9 people voted in favor, and 1 abstained.
The next one. 5 people voted in favor, 4 voted against, and 1 abstained.
Pang Bin was a short and fat man. He heard Chief Yan calling him and said: "A few days ago, General Affairs Office Deputy Chief Zhou Changchun retired due to illness. After some consideration, we picked 3 candidates. General Affairs Office's Guo Panwei, General Affairs Office's Guo Shunjie, and General Affairs Office's Dong Xuebing."
Everyone began to discuss the matter one after another.
The next one. 7 people voted in favor, 2 voted against, and 1 abstained.
Pang Bin frowned. A few days ago, Cheng Haimei had said that she would support the candidate he proposed. But these two days, her attitude suddenly became ambiguous. Pang Bin knew that Cheng Haimei must have been roped in by Political Commissar Zhou. Was it to transfer her nephew's job?
10 am sharp.
So, the proposal was passed.
The lights shone into the bright meeting room. A few pots of fresh flowers were placed in the room.
Let's leave it to fate!
Zhou Guoan used the lid of his teacup to take a sip of water.
"Let me say something first." Pang Bin straightened his back, and his big belly hit the meeting table. "The position of the Deputy Chief of the General Affairs Office is very important. Everything in the bureau needs to go through him. That's why I think when choosing this Deputy Chief, we must look at his experience. Guo Panwei had been working in the General Affairs Office for 7 to 8 years. He is older than Guo Shunjie and Dong Xuebing. He is a hardworking person and is a good comrade. I believe that with Guo Panwei's support, the General Affairs Office's performance will surely improve."
There was only the sound of the printer in the office. No one spoke for a long time. Tan Limei, who was looking at her watch, suddenly turned to look at Dong Xuebing and Zhuang Zhi. It was 10 am. She then looked at Guo Panwei and Guo Shunjie. Dong Xuebing's heart was in his throat. His heart was floating in the air and could not calm down.
Yan was talking to Yan Liang. Yan Liang was Yan's words. "Chief Yan's Room. Yan Liang's Room.
The Branch Bureau's Party Committee meeting had started.
Then, Pang Bin glanced at Deputy Political Commissar Cheng Haimei for a second.
"But where should we move to?" Deputy Political Commissar Li Mingyu was holding a thermos cup of water. "Just choosing the location will take a lot of time. There are many issues in the middle. It will not be easy. We must consider the safety of the residents. I think we should report to the City Bureau and see if we can do some work at the demolition site."
Cheng Haimei's hair was dark. She was in her 50s and still had a perm. She knew that Pang Bin was waiting for her to speak, but Cheng Haimei pretended not to see it. She looked at the clean table without saying a word, as if there was something attractive on it.
Yan Liang grunted indifferently, but he was not in a hurry to express his opinion.
There was no voting for the next topic. After a short discussion, 6 to 7 people agreed, and it was passed.
Originally, the number of Party Committee members should be odd. This way, there would not be a tie in the voting. However, Liu Hua, the low-key Deputy Bureau Chief, was in the Western District Branch. He had always abstained from voting … … Everyone started to ignore him. Everyone thought that there were only 9 members in the Party Committee. That's why after Yang Yizhong was transferred to the Western District Branch, Yan Liang did not apply to add another member.
Xu Yan raised her head and said: "Chief Yang is right. This hostel is too dilapidated and has not been repaired for years. If we can use this opportunity to move to a new building, I will definitely support it. But the key is the funds. Our bureau has always been short on funds. In this aspect …" Xu Yan said.
Yan Liang waved his hand: "This is an important matter. No matter how difficult it is, we must find the funds. Don't worry about the money. What we are discussing now is whether to move or not." Yan Liang paused for a while and said: "Let's vote. Those who agree to move, raise your hand." He was the first to raise his arm, and then the rest of the people also raised their hands. Only the Deputy Political Commissar Li Mingyu and the Secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection Song Shoujie voted against it. Oh, Liu Hua's vote was of course a abstention. Liu Hua kept his head down from the beginning to the end and never said a word.
Issues related to personnel appointments were more sensitive. This was because there will be fights from all sides. That's why everyone was more focused than before. All of them were looking at the document. Actually, all of them had read this document earlier or later. Now, they were just putting on a show.
All 10 Party Committee members were present. Bureau Chief Yan Liang was seated at the head of the table. Beside him were Political Commissar Zhou Guoan, Deputy Political Commissar Li Mingyu, Deputy Political Commissar Cheng Haimei, Deputy Bureau Chief Xu Yan, Political Section Chief Pang Bin, Deputy Bureau Chief Zhao Jinxi, Commission for Discipline Inspection Secretary Song Shoujie, Deputy Bureau Chief Liu Hua, and Deputy Bureau Chief Yang Yizhong. Of course, this ranking was based on their positions and not their actual ranking. For example, the two Deputy Political Commissars Li Mingyu and Cheng Haimei were ranked higher than Political Section Chief Pang because of their seniority. But their actual power was much lower than Political Section Chief Pang.
When everyone was seated, Yan Liang habitually cleared his throat.
Actually, most of the Party Committee leaders do not like to raise their hands to vote on issues. There was no other reason. It will show that the Party Committee leaders have less control over the Party Committee. But Yan Liang's leadership style was different from the rest. He likes to be fair and just. That's why whenever there are objections, he will call for a vote.
Yan Liang said: "Next … …"
