This is a personnel appointment from the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee. The gist of the appointment is that Governor Bu Yiren will be transferred to the National Development and Reform Commission to serve as deputy secretary of the party group and deputy director, while the position of governor will be replaced by Wei Qun, deputy minister of the National Development and Reform Commission.
Huainan is in the front line of more than 30 ministerial-level provinces and cities in the country, and is a place that many forces have always fought for. In this way, the signal is obvious. After Wen Jinglong's layout in Huainan for several years, Wei Qun entered the Huainan officialdom, indicating that the northern faction has completely taken over the control of Huainan.
Seeing Fang Zhicheng's uncertain expression, Su Qing smiled and said, "What? Don't you understand?"
Fang Zhicheng nodded and said, "It's hard to understand why Bu Yiren would choose to switch positions with Wei Qun."
Bu Yiren has worked diligently in Huainan in recent years and has made a lot of achievements. If he had not left on his own initiative, the central government would not have easily moved him. Bu Yiren is now the governor of Huainan Province, second only to the emperor, and has been rooted for many years, with more depth than the top leader Wen Jinglong. If there is no absolutely tempting benefit, he will not leave easily.
Su Qing knew that Fang Zhicheng's position determined that he could not see many subsequent changes in the chess game, and said: "The Development and Reform Commission is just a temporary stepping stone for Bu Yiren."
Fang Zhicheng asked, "You mean, Bu Yiren will eventually transfer to other ministries?"
Su Qing smiled and nodded, saying, "That's right! If nothing unexpected happens, Bu Yiren will be the next Minister of Commerce."
Fang Zhicheng was slightly startled and asked in confusion: "Isn't the Ministry of Commerce the sphere of influence of the Tang family?"
Su Qing secretly thought that Fang Zhicheng had a certain understanding of the sphere of influence of the ministry, and said: "This is a replacement of interests. After three terms, the Tang family is preparing to impact the position of the top leader. In order to gain the support of the northern faction, it must hand over some resources that will satisfy the northern faction."
Three terms and fifteen years may sound far away, but it is a well-planned period within the Party. To ensure social stability and the normal transfer of power, the Party will arrange the handover of leadership ten years in advance. This means that the next and next No. 1 leaders will be selected in advance after discussion and comprehensive consideration within the Party.
In other words, the next No. 1 and No. 2 candidates are already known. As for which force will stabilize the peak of power fifteen years later, it has not yet been determined, but many forces have already begun to compete.
The current game between the major forces is actually for the position fifteen years later. This is indescribably strange.
Although the next term will be controlled by the Northern faction, the Tang family is rising rapidly now, and it is very likely that the Tang family will take over in fifteen years. However, as a power-controlling faction, the Northern faction also requires the Tang family to pay a certain price. The Ministry of Commerce is the benefit thrown by the Tang family, but it has been controlled by the Tang family for many years and is also a hot potato that is not easy to swallow, so the Northern faction threw it into Bu Yiren's hands to exchange for absolute control over Huainan.
Bu Yiren belongs to the economic faction. Naturally, he would not give up the Ministry of Commerce, a department that can influence the national economic situation, so he chose to accept this exchange of interests.
Of course, there are other elusive meanings in it, which Fang Zhicheng finds difficult to figure out.
Fang Zhicheng knew the reason why Su Qing showed him this document. She was letting him make a choice. The situation in Huainan was rather chaotic, and if he chose some other place, it might be relatively safer.
After Fang Zhicheng figured it out, he said, "Mom, I decided to go back to Huainan because I'm more familiar with it. Although there are big changes among the top management, it shouldn't affect me."
Su Qing shook his head and said, "It's not that simple. No matter where you go now, you will attract attention. Because you represent the Su family, and with your relationship with Song Wendi, Song Wendi is actually connected to the Su family. If you still return to Huainan, I'm afraid you will encounter a lot of pressure."
Fang Zhicheng's eyes showed determination, and he said, "Mom, I've thought about it and decided to go back to Huainan."
Su Qing showed a look of relief. Anyone who can succeed in a field has the extraordinary determination to challenge difficulties. She smelled this kind of spirit from Fang Zhicheng.
Su Qing said: "Your second uncle talked to me and told me that it is very important to choose a career path that is suitable for your long-term development. According to his opinion, it is better for you to go to the provincial government."
Fang Zhicheng said: "I have also thought about this matter. I want to go to the Development and Reform Commission."
Su Qing frowned and said, "The Development and Reform Commission is indeed a very good platform, but the Development and Reform Commission system in Huainan is not very favorable to you."
Fang Zhicheng understood what Su Qing meant. Jiang Yong, the director of the Development and Reform Commission, was a trusted general of Wen Jinglong. He had fought with Song Wendi many times but never got any good results. He himself had also been plotted against by Jiang Yong several times. If Fang Zhicheng went to the Development and Reform Commission, wouldn't that be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth
Fang Zhicheng explained: "Mom, I want to move forward under pressure, and I don't want everything to go smoothly."
Su Qing frowned for a long time, then suddenly became clear and sighed, "No wonder your second uncle said that you are as stubborn as I was when I was young. When I came to Yanjing from Shanzhou, I also chose the State Council Research Office against all odds. At that time, even your grandfather disagreed with me. In fact, it doesn't matter which department you choose. The key is that you have to have the heart of a strong person."
Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "Do you think I have the heart of a strong man?"
Su Qing smiled and nodded, commenting softly, "You are definitely not a weakling!"
Fang Zhicheng has grown to where he is today without using much of the Su family's resources. He has already proven that he has enough strength. Su Qing is more pleased to see that his son is so outstanding and has his own ideas.
The predecessor of the NDRC was the Planning Commission, and its full name is the Development and Reform Commission. It is a macro-control department that comprehensively studies and formulates economic and social development policies, balances the total volume, and guides the overall economic system reform. To explain the function of this department more intuitively, all policies related to the region's economic and social development are formulated by the NDRC.
The National Development and Reform Commission is privately called the mini-State Council. National special funds are generally planned by the National Development and Reform Commission and then issued by the Ministry of Finance. As for the provincial development and reform commissions, they are also responsible for a lot of things and are responsible for the formulation of policies in various fields of the province. Generally speaking, the director of the provincial development and reform commission will be promoted to deputy governor if nothing unexpected happens, and the director and deputy director at the department level, and the deputy director of the provincial development and reform commission system are also the objects of competition among local governments.
Local governments have to go to the provincial development and reform commission and the national development and reform commission to seek funding and policy support, and to run for money and projects. These are all technical jobs. A municipal government cannot even get in the door of the National Development and Reform Commission. With people from the provincial development and reform commission, it is easy to find the sponsors at the provincial development and reform commission, and it goes without saying that when going to the National Development and Reform Commission, because they have business contacts with the National Development and Reform Commission before, it is easy to find the sponsors and familiar with the process, which can achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Therefore, cadres coming from the National Development and Reform Commission system are generally very popular and favored by governments at or below the municipal level.
So Zang Yi came to Hanzhou from the National Development and Reform Commission and was promoted very quickly. At the same time, despite the different factions and camps, Zhang Tianling was relatively tolerant of him. For example, in the area of industrial manufacturing layout, he completely let Zang Yi do it and never interfered.
Seeing Fang Zhicheng choose the NDRC, Su Qing was worried, but still very satisfied with his judgment. Because Su Qing himself had slowly worked his way up from the NDRC. The State Council Research Office actually had similar functions to the NDRC, and Su Qing had enough experience to remind and help him in a timely manner.
Su Qing thought of something and said, "You have been in Yanjing for a while. Mo Ru, have you met him?"
Fang Zhicheng smiled bitterly and said, "I called him and he was indifferent to me. I also wanted to get along well with him, but he seemed to have some grudge against me."
Su Qing nodded and said, "From an internal perspective, you and him are in a competitive relationship, but when it comes to external affairs, you should be united. Just like Su Jin, even though everyone knows that he is dissatisfied with your second uncle, considering the overall interests of the family, he is indispensable as a backbone."
Fang Zhicheng nodded and said, "For the time being, there will be no conflict of interest between him and me. When the time is right, I will take the initiative to ease the conflict with him."
Su Qing smiled and said, "Zhicheng, you are more sunny than I thought."
Fang Zhicheng smiled faintly and said, "If a person lives in the shadows, he will only consider using conspiracies to move forward. If he lives in the sunshine, he will deal with problems uprightly. If both can achieve the goal, I would rather use some upright methods."
Su Qing nodded with satisfaction: "Let go and do it according to your own ideas, I will support you!"
After leaving the study and returning to his room, Fang Zhicheng glanced at his mobile phone. As he had been studying at the Party School recently, he had switched his phone to silent mode and would only check the messages on it every night.
