The merits of cadres are often packaged, so after Chu Shiyuan returned to Qiongjin, he immediately called Fang Zhicheng to indirectly thank him for his publicity for him.
Chu Shiyuan rushed from Qiongjin to Caoyao Baishan City for a private visit and investigation. Although he suffered a lot, he also earned official reputation, so overall he did not lose out.
After receiving the news, Wang Guoyue sat at his desk in silence for a long time.
Guan Ruofei whispered, "The municipal government has already made some moves. They are preparing to make some fine-tuning and transfer the work of the Development and Reform Commission to Fang Zhicheng."
Wang Guoyue's eyes fell on the desk calendar next to the computer and he sighed, "It's only been a short time since we got here, and we've already made progress."
Guan Ruofei knew that Wang Guoyue was thinking about something, so he didn't say much.
Wang Guoyue raised his head and asked, "Ruofei, what do you think of Fang Zhicheng?"
Guan Ruofei was slightly stunned. He had asked himself this question before, and now he asked himself again. He might need a different answer. This was also because the previous analysis was based on resumes. Now, after working together for a period of time, the opinions expressed were more objective.
Guan Ruofei said in a deep voice: "He came to Cao Yao with ambitions, and he considered the problem carefully. At the same time, the method he adopted was very surprising, so he needs to be treated with caution."
Wang Guoyue stood up, exhaled heavily, and said, "Well, I want to see how far he, the deputy mayor on secondment, can go!"
Confucius said, "A gentleman is reserved but not quarrelsome."
In Guan Ruofei's opinion, Wang Guoyue has always maintained a humble and peaceful attitude since he entered politics. Even during the game with Qu Kang, he did not rashly compete with him for control of the old city, but found another way to develop the new city.
But at this moment, Guan Ruofei clearly felt that Wang Guoyue was filled with a desire to dominate.
Gentlemen also fight, especially when they meet an opponent of equal strength.
Guan Ruofei added: "At tomorrow's regular meeting of the Standing Committee, two personnel adjustment plans have been prepared according to your request. One is about adding additional Standing Committee members, and the other is about the candidate for Secretary of the Bianguan District Committee."
Bianguan District is the main urban area. Previously, when Wang Guoyue broke the deadlock with force, the district party secretary was implicated and has not been confirmed.
In order to nominate Chen Zhen to join the Standing Committee, Wang Guoyue gave up this important position in exchange for Qu Kang's support. This cannot be considered as taking advantage and is worthy of Qu Kang's consideration.
Guan Ruofei put the draft on the table and left the office. Wang Guoyue tapped it with his fingers, with a trace of confusion in his eyes. As for Fang Zhicheng, Wang Guoyue was a little undecided whether to let him develop like this.
Wang Guoyue was still very open-minded. Even if Fang Zhicheng was very outstanding and his achievements were insignificant compared to Cao Yao, he was ultimately just a supporting role. He was the boss of Cao Yao and the real protagonist.
Chapter 0944 The Standing Committee is completely out of control
Yesterday, a strange thing happened in Caoyao. Before the Standing Committee meeting started, many members of the Standing Committee were talking about it. Fang Zhicheng was also a little curious, so he smiled and leaned over to listen for a while before he knew what was going on.
One hundred meters away from the Municipal Party Committee compound, there is an old house, which was a private courtyard left by a wealthy man in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China. After liberation, the government has been working there, so it is also called the old government. In the early 1980s, the municipal government built a new compound, and because of policy changes, they moved out of there and then transferred it to the descendants of the wealthy man. Yesterday, the descendants of the wealthy man sold the ownership of the house to a businessman for 100 million yuan.
If that were all, it would be nothing but ordinary. On the night after the contract was signed, there was thunder and lightning, and a lightning bolt struck across the sky, cutting a century-old ginkgo tree in the middle of the yard in half. As luck would have it, this morning, workers found two jars of silver dollars and a box of jewelry buried underground while digging up the ginkgo tree. The silver dollars can still be estimated by price, but most of the jewelry in this box has a history and cannot be estimated, so the descendants of the rich and the merchants began to argue.
Because of the controversy, it has become a topic of discussion. It is difficult to determine who the silver dollars and jewelry belong to. Some people think that since it has been sold to the merchant, everything in the yard should belong to the merchant. But some people think that the yard was sold, and the merchant promised that the furniture in the house would not be included in it, so the silver dollars and jewelry hidden under the century-old ginkgo tree should also be included. Some people even have wild ideas and think that the silver dollars and jewelry do not belong to anyone, because everything buried underground should be handed over to the country.
Everyone laughed for a while, and Wang Guoyue and Qu Kang walked into the meeting room one after another. Fang Zhicheng sat in his seat, opened his notebook, unscrewed the pen cap, and his eyes drifted to Sui Qi not far away. He thought to himself that Sui Qi was dressed very smartly today, with a navy blue professional women's suit and a white round-necked shirt underneath. Her hair was combed into a bun, revealing her beautiful ears, and the silver platinum earrings emitted a faint light, which was extremely eye-catching.
Today, he was destined to be a supporting role, so Fang Zhicheng looked lazy and relaxed. Starting from Sui Qi, his eyes wandered around the venue, and then fell on his notebook. He drew a simple cartoon with his pen. A large courtyard, a ginkgo tree, treasures, merchants, descendants of wealthy people, and the country.
I'm afraid most people are thinking that this treasure should belong to the country. It's not because personal interests are subordinate to collective interests, but because everyone has a common hatred of the rich, thinking that no matter merchants or descendants of wealthy people, they are not short of money. In this case, cutting off a piece of your flesh and making both of you suffer, wouldn't it be a great pleasure
To make an inappropriate analogy, Wang Guoyue and Qu Kang are now one a businessman and the other a descendant of a wealthy gentry, and the list of standing committee members that will be discussed soon will determine the ownership of the treasure. In fact, many standing committee members are spectators, except for those who have obvious camps and are very close to the chief and deputy squad leaders, the rest are probably just watching the show.
Wang Guoyue habitually put on his black-framed glasses. The door of the conference room was pushed open, and Chen Yuejin, the commander of the military sub-district, stepped into the office quickly. Wang Guoyue took off his glasses again, and subconsciously tapped his fingers on the table. Chen Yuejin would not attend ordinary meetings of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee. Although he held the title of Standing Committee member, the military and the government have always been separate. Chen Yuejin would only appear at the Standing Committee unless there was a major accident that required the assistance of the army.
Chen Yuejin was about 1.8 meters tall, with silver hair on his temples. He was already in his fifties. He smiled at Wang Guoyue and said, "Sorry, I'm late!"
In fact, Wang Guoyue knew that Chen Yuejin would attend the meeting today, because when Chen Zhen notified the meeting yesterday, Chen Yuejin did not ask for leave, which means that Chen Yuejin is likely to be present. Judging from Chen Yuejin's previous position, he stood in Qu Kang's camp. It seems that Qu Kang has put a lot of effort into dealing with him today.
After Chen Yuejin sat down, Wang Guoyue glanced at Secretary-General Chen Zhen and said calmly: "Because the topic involved today is related to Comrade Chen Zhen, please leave for a while."
After Chen Zhen left, Wang Guoyue cleared his throat and said, "As everyone knows, there are twelve members in our Standing Committee. Due to various reasons, after discussing with Mayor Qu and Secretary Meng Yuan, I came to the conclusion that we need to add a member to the Standing Committee. There are two comrades who are more suitable now. One is Comrade Chen Zhen, Secretary General of the Municipal Party Committee, and the other is Comrade Zhang Xian, Deputy Mayor in charge of industry. Both comrades are very outstanding and work hard in their posts. Comrade Zhang Xian is the mainstay of our city's cadres. Under his leadership, industrial development has been rising steadily; Comrade Chen Zhen is the steward of the Municipal Party Committee and performs his duties conscientiously. But there is only one position for the Standing Committee, and everyone can only choose one. Please vote below and raise your hands. If you agree that Comrade Zhang Xian will serve as a member of the Standing Committee, then Comrade Chen Zhen will lose the opportunity to become a member of the Standing Committee; on the contrary, if you oppose Comrade Zhang Xian's appointment as a member of the Standing Committee, then Comrade Chen Zhen will officially become a member of the Standing Committee."
Wang Guoyue is very familiar with the process and explains it in great detail. Generally speaking, he simply mentions the candidates and then proceeds to voting.
Of course, there is a small detail here, that is, Wang Guoyue deliberately put Zhang Xian on the list of candidates for a show of hands vote, thus making Zhang Xian the target of public criticism.
Take the example of the chopped ginkgo tree. This is a game of psychological warfare. Bystanders do not want to side with either the merchant or the rich man's descendants, so they are likely to vote against him. If the number of votes against is higher, it is an invisible support for the other candidate.
Wang Guoyue used his power as the municipal party secretary to cleverly give Chen Zhen more opportunities.
Of course, Wang Guoyue used this trick because there are two candidates for the Standing Committee today. If there is only one, there is no need to explain it, and you can just vote directly.
There are twelve standing committee members present today who can vote.
According to the previous camp arrangement, it is divided into the Wang Guoyue faction, Organization Minister Guan Ruofei, Executive Vice Mayor Sui Qi, Discipline Inspection Committee Secretary Mai Zhaolong, Political and Legal Affairs Commission Secretary Deng Zhanying, and Propaganda Minister Lu Baojuan.
The Qukang faction includes Deputy Secretary Chang Mengyuan, Secretary of the Party Working Committee of the Economic Development Zone Guan Qijun, Commander of the Military Sub-district Chen Yuejin, and Minister of United Front Work Yuan Suhua.
Fang Zhicheng was a standing committee member in a temporary capacity and did not belong to any obvious camp.
Therefore, Wang Guoyue's situation is still quite dangerous. If Fang Zhicheng helps Qu Kang, it may result in a 6-6 tie. At this time, Wang Guoyue must exercise the power of the municipal party secretary to achieve his goal.
Although the top leader has the final say and can ignore the decision of the Standing Committee, he can only do so occasionally.
"Please raise your hands to vote if you agree with Comrade Zhang Xian's addition to the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee!" Wang Guoyue asked in a deep voice, supporting the frame of his glasses with his hand.
