After Fang Zhicheng returned to the office, he called Chen Chao to issue a series of instructions. Chen Chao habitually carried a notebook with him and wrote down Fang Zhicheng's instructions one by one.
The requirements raised by Fang Zhicheng mainly focus on the management of party members and cadres in the district. Xiaguang is no longer short of projects, and the Investment Promotion Bureau can introduce new projects every day. When the external situation has been opened up, it is time to strengthen internal strength and achieve both internal and external cultivation.
Fang Zhicheng demanded that the district party school must come up with a plan to improve the professional capabilities of cadres across the district. Because times are changing, officials must adapt to economic trends in order to better build the local area.
Chen Chao silently recorded everything. Fang Zhicheng suddenly called Chen Chao and asked, "What do you think about Yu Jinping's transfer from the Organization Department?"
Chen Chao and Yu Jinping were in the same camp before. With the help of Zhao Liang, Yu Jinping jumped from Xiaguang to the city. Although he did not have as much power as the district party committee organization minister, his platform was higher. At least in the eyes of others, he is now a city leader.
Chen Chao knew that Fang Zhicheng was testing him. Yu Jinping betrayed Fang Zhicheng first, so Fang Zhicheng inevitably became suspicious of him.
Chen Chao seemed to think for a long time before he said, "Secretary Fang, people are different. I can understand Yu Jinping's thoughts on leaving Xiaguang, but I won't do the same as him."
"Oh?" Fang Zhicheng raised his eyebrows.
Chen Chao said slowly: "I am already very satisfied to be promoted from secretary of the district party secretary to director of the district party office. It is very difficult for Yu Jinping to make further progress from his original position, so he chose another path."
Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "You mean, I should have given Yu Jinping some sweet treats so that he wouldn't betray me?"
Chen Chao nodded and said, "The officialdom is very realistic. Although you did not investigate Yu Jinping's previous stance, not punishing him does not mean you can win people's support. He lost his goal, so he seemed very flustered and finally chose Zhao Ling."
Fang Zhicheng thought to himself that Chen Chao had a very thorough analysis of human nature and he spoke very directly to Fang Zhicheng.
Fang Zhicheng was silent for a moment, and then said, "I think what you said makes sense, so I have made a major decision to give you more benefits in exchange for your loyalty. If I let you go to the Organization Department of the District Party Committee, would you be willing?"
Chen Chao obviously didn't expect Fang Zhicheng to make such a decision. A flash of surprise flashed across his eyes. He nodded and said, "Thank you Secretary Fang for your trust, but I am not very familiar with organizational work and I am afraid I will not be able to do it."
Fang Zhicheng waved his hand and smiled, "You are more than capable of doing this. Could the work of the Organization Department be more complicated than that of the District Party Committee Office?"
The work of the district party committee office involves all aspects. As the director of the committee office, he has to be familiar with the functions of each department. Although organizational work requires certain experience, with Chen Chao's ability, it is estimated that it will not take too long to be competent.
The key issue is that Chen Chao is now at the section level, while the head of the district party committee's organization department is not only at the deputy division level, but also ranks high in the standing committee. This means that if Chen Chao is to be the head of the organization department, it would be an exceptional promotion, which would probably lead to some criticism.
Chen Chao walked out of the district party secretary's office with brisk steps. He knew Fang Zhicheng's style and knew that once he said something, he would most likely be able to do it.
It is unlikely that Chen Chao had no thoughts about Yu Jinping's betrayal of Fang Zhicheng. Fang Zhicheng seemed to have guessed his thoughts and used another way to stabilize himself.
Fang Zhicheng supported Chen Chao in order to check and balance Yu Jinping. With Chen Chao, the people who used to be under Deng Shaoqun's command would follow him safely. Fang Zhicheng was indeed good at controlling people's hearts.
Chen Chao realized that Fang Zhicheng would give him some sweet treats from time to time, but he didn't expect that he would give him such a big opportunity for promotion all of a sudden.
Fang Zhicheng tapped his fingers on the table, and then called Zhang Xiaoliang over. Zhang Xiaoliang had been following him closely. If Chen Chao was promoted out of turn, Zhang Xiaoliang would probably be the first to be dissatisfied. After all, compared to himself, Chen Chao's contribution was nothing.
Zhang Xiaoliang sat on the sofa and waited for Fang Zhicheng to tell him his decision. He was stunned and showed an expression of disbelief. He said, "Secretary Fang, this will surprise many people, right? The position of the district organization minister is crucial. It doesn't seem appropriate to give it to Chen Chao. After all, he was once Deng Shaoqun's secretary. It will make those who follow you feel disappointed."
Fang Zhicheng smiled faintly and said, "Does it make you feel disappointed?"
Zhang Xiaoliang thought about it and smiled awkwardly: "That's right! Secretary Fang, if you give me a suitable position, I can do more for you."
Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "Lao Zhang, I have never doubted your loyalty. However, I don't need your loyalty alone. Letting Chen Chao take the position of Organization Minister will be beyond everyone's expectations, and this is also my purpose."
After listening to Fang Zhicheng's words, Zhang Xiaoliang pondered for a long time, and finally a look of enlightenment appeared in his eyes. He said, "Secretary Fang, I will continue to support your decision. I have figured it out."
Fang Zhicheng nodded and said, "Just think it through. Please also remember that the path you choose is different from anyone else's. Your position does not depend on your administrative level or the importance of your position..."
Zhang Xiaoliang sighed and smiled, "I know my position now."
Ever since the mystery of Fang Zhicheng's life experience was about to be revealed, Zhang Xiaoliang had actually made up his mind. He was willing to become Fang Zhicheng's confidant in this life and clear all obstacles in his way, even if he was called Fang Zhicheng's running dog.
This is Zhang Xiaoliang's official path. Even if he is despised by the world, he will go all the way to the end without looking back, blindly following the path.
Zhang Xiaoliang knew that he did not have the strength and potential to reach the top, but he saw a bright future in Fang Zhicheng. If Fang Zhicheng could achieve immortal achievements in the future, it would be worthwhile for him to stay in this official career.
Chapter 0682: Making the Rice a Fait Déjà Vu
Zhang Xiaoliang actually understood Fang Zhicheng's intention.
With an action that was unexpected by everyone, he proved that he was open-minded and willing to accept all talents, appeased Xiaguang's always unstable officialdom, and at the same time eliminated the negative impact of his previous isolation and investigation.
Fang Zhicheng promoted Chen Chao out of the ordinary, which was a groundbreaking move and also the most effective means.
Yu Jinping was transferred from Xiaguang, and many people privately spread rumors that Fang Zhicheng was narrow-minded and used despicable means to force Yu Jinping to leave. However, Fang Zhicheng now even accepted Deng Shaoqun and promoted him to replace Yu Jinping, which was enough to give those rumor makers a slap in the face.
Fang Zhicheng's move was actually a simple advertisement to recruit talents.
I am very stupid. As long as you are willing to come, I will not ask about your background and will give you all kinds of awesome positions.
Fang Zhicheng knew that as long as Zhang Xiaoliang left the district party secretary's office, the news that Chen Chao would serve as the district party committee's organization minister in the future would spread like wildfire.
Fang Zhicheng called Zhang Xiaoliang, on the one hand to calm him down, and on the other hand to spread the news quickly.
Fang Zhicheng then called Wan Heng and explained his purpose to him.
Wan Heng was very surprised and said, "You want to promote Chen Chao, which is a little troublesome in terms of procedures. However, it is not a big problem. As long as Secretary Xia does not object, I will help. It's just that I always feel that it is not worth spending so much energy for Chen Chao."
Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "If everyone thinks it's not worth it, then my goal has been achieved."
Wan Heng pondered for a long time and said with a smile: "You have done a big thing to win over the hearts and minds of the people in the Xiaguang District. However, although the method is a bit radical, the effect and speed achieved are also the fastest. I am afraid that only you dare to do this."
