official career

"We allocate funds based on the size of the tourism projects reported by several places and the principle of fair distribution. According to the projects reported, Yi'an County has the most, followed by Tai'an County. However, a large number of tourism projects in Yi'an County have already begun to be planned and constructed, so the funding gap is relatively small, and the city has already provided a lot of subsidies to Yi'an County in the early stage."

"The projects in Tai'an County have not started yet, and there is a large funding gap. Moreover, the city has not supported Tai'an County's tourism projects before. Therefore, Tai'an County is ranked first in the arrangement this time, and Yi'an County is second." Liao Lijun said seriously.

"Have you read the official document issued by the Municipal Party Committee?" Qin Feng asked.

"I've seen it." Liao Lijun nodded.

"Then you should be clear that the municipal party committee's requirement is that the development of our tourism industry should obey and cooperate with our Xiquan City's poverty alleviation strategy. The municipal party committee has listed Yian County as a key poverty alleviation county and a priority development area. So when we formulate tourism development strategies and allocate funds, we should focus on Yian County and give priority support to its development." Qin Feng explained to Liao Lijun again.

"Mayor Qin, although that's what you said, you also have to understand our difficulties. If all the resources are given to Yian County, other counties will have opinions. Now other counties have strong opinions. A few days ago, Tai'an County Mayor Yan Yibin slammed the table in front of me, asking if our Cultural and Tourism Bureau had taken advantage of Yian County. All the money and projects were given to Yian County, and they couldn't even get a share of the profits." Liao Lijun's explanation was a bit unreasonable.

"The three major issues all need to be reviewed by the Standing Committee. Do you think the Standing Committee will approve your allocation plan that is obviously inconsistent with the development policy of the Municipal Party Committee?" Qin Feng was too lazy to talk nonsense with Liao Lijun.

"Mayor Qin, whether the Standing Committee passes it or not is another matter. We must first ensure that it is passed by the Municipal Government, don't you think?" Liao Lijun said with hidden meaning.

The meaning of Liao Lijun's words was very clear. Even if he changed it according to Qin Feng's suggestion, Liu Xiaoping would not be able to approve it, and this matter would not even be brought to the Standing Committee.

At the same time, this also shows Liao Lijun's attitude, that is, he will not modify the distribution plan according to Qin Feng's wishes.

Qin Feng looked at Liao Lijun coldly, while Liao Lijun looked back at Qin Feng with a smile on his face.

It is very clear that someone must have informed Liao Lijun in advance before he did this, either Liu Xiaoping or Huang Jiancheng.

Liao Lijun has the support of Liu Xiaoping and Huang Jiancheng behind him, so naturally he doesn't need to consider Qin Feng's face, even though Qin Feng is his supervisor.

As the deputy mayor, Qin Feng has a certain say in the promotion and appointment of Liao Lijun, as well as in his rating and evaluation. He can even propose a removal proposal to the municipal government. However, all this is based on the premise that the mayor supports Qin Feng.

The deputy mayor is a middle-man, with the heads of various departments below him and the mayor above him. If the deputy mayor wants to play a role, he needs support from above and obedience from below. At worst, he has to have one of both, either support from above or a close relationship with those below him who obey him unconditionally.

But Qin Feng has neither of them now, so in fact, his position as deputy mayor is just an empty decoration. Just like now, Liao Lijun clearly doesn't listen to him, and he has no way to deal with it.

Of course, Qin Feng had guessed this situation before he became the deputy mayor. The municipal government is Liu Xiaoping's world, and it is impossible for him to have the right to speak here.

This is also the reason why Qin Feng is not very interested in being the deputy mayor. If Xie Zhiguo had not forced him to take over this matter, Qin Feng would never have sat in this office of the municipal government.

Qin Feng did not chat with Liao Lijun for long. He knew that continuing the conversation would be useless and would only make him more embarrassed.

After Liao Lijun left, Jiang Pingyuan, director of the Municipal Poverty Alleviation Office, walked into Qin Feng's office.

"Mayor Qin." Jiang Pingyuan nodded and bowed to Qin Feng.

"Director Jiang, please sit down."

Jiang Pingyuan sat down in front of Qin Feng, sitting very upright with half of his buttocks touching the chair. This is the standard sitting posture for subordinates when meeting their leaders.

"This is the allocation plan for tourism development funds proposed by the Culture and Tourism Bureau. Take a look." Qin Feng handed the document given by Liao Lijun to Jiang Pingyuan.

"Mayor Qin, this is the Culture and Tourism Bureau's own business. It does not belong to the special poverty alleviation funds and is not the responsibility of our Poverty Alleviation Office." Jiang Pingyuan gave an excuse.

"The official document of the Municipal Party Committee clearly states that the tourism development strategy must be subject to the poverty alleviation strategy of Xiquan City, which means that tourism development is actually one of the poverty alleviation strategies. Therefore, your Poverty Alleviation Office should also participate in this matter and study it together." Qin Feng's words blocked Jiang Pingyuan's idea of ​​not wanting to get involved in this matter.

Qin Feng had already said this, and Jiang Pingyuan had no choice but to bite the bullet and read the document.

After reading it, Qin Feng asked Jiang Pingyuan: "Tell me what you think."

"The plan given by the Culture and Tourism Bureau clearly violates the city party committee's poverty alleviation policy. But Mayor Qin, although this matter is related to poverty alleviation, it is ultimately an internal matter of the Culture and Tourism Bureau. They have their own considerations, and it's not easy for me to say anything." Jiang Pingyuan is a veteran and is unwilling to comment on this matter.
