Official Ladder [Grassroots Civil Servants]

Qin Province and Chang'an City have historically created a miracle that ranks first in the country, which cannot be replicated. At this moment, Wang Hongtao was "blown" to the altar by the people of the province and the country!

The words "Economic Czar", "The Strongest Governor" and so on made the people of the whole country look forward to him even more. The people of Qin Province cheered and waited for the governor to be promoted to the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and lead the children of Sanqin to move forward bravely and continue Create glory, restore the glory of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and rebuild the glory of the past.

Guiguzi once said: If you want to get rid of it, do it because of danger. Circumstances change, causes change, no one knows what to do, and it retreats into great rituals. It means that it is better to retreat bravely from the rapids. If the bow is full, it will break, and if the moon is full, it will be missing.

If "sailing against the current" is an art of advancement, then "coursing back bravely" is an art of retreat. "Things that prosper and then decline are the constants of heaven; advancement and retreat, expansion and contraction, and change are the common ways of saints." Only a person of great wisdom can have such an insight.

There is usefulness, there is abandonment, there is advancement and there is retreat. "Planting green rice seedlings in the field with your hands, you can see the sky in the water when you lower your head. The six pure roots are the way, and retreat turns out to be forward." This is a Zen poem, which talks about the process of planting rice seedlings, but it contains the philosophy of progress and retreat in life.

Wang Hongtao felt that he had achieved the best results he could achieve in Qin Province. It was easy to conquer a country but difficult to defend it. Due to fate, Qin Province went upstream and briefly occupied the top spot in the country. After the major cities recovered, , will inevitably knock Qin Province off the altar, because the disadvantages of inland cities in economic development cannot be reversed by human will.

Wang Hongtao must have been unwilling to see the country he had conquered being "overthrown" by others, but he was helpless, so it was the most appropriate time to leave Qin Province. However, how dare you talk to your superiors about such shameless reasons and thoughts? So, I feel anxious from time to time.

If you fail to advance when you should, you may be just one step away from success, and you will regret it for the rest of your life; if you fail to retreat when you should, you may make the success you have achieved fleeting and regret it for the rest of your life.

Advance and retreat, if handled properly, it will be the steps to heaven; if handled improperly, it will be like knocking on the door of hell. When to advance and when to retreat is a profound knowledge. Looking at the ups and downs of historical figures, we can get a glimpse of them.

The three heroes of the early Han Dynasty, Xiao He, Zhang Liang, and Han Xin, had different grasps of advance and retreat, which determined their very different fates: Zhang Liang retired after success, Xiao He endured humiliation, and Han Xin was beheaded to death.

It can be seen that the way forward and retreat is actually the road that determines the success or failure of life. Whether it is winning the decisive battle, winning the market, or stabilizing your career, it is inseparable from the proper grasp of advancement and retreat.

The key to advancement and retreat is to advance and retreat. Timely low-key or retreat can enable a person to survive, develop and succeed better.

If you don't grasp it well, your achievements may overwhelm the master, or you may be jealous of your power. In the least case, your reputation will be ruined, or in the worst case, you will be imprisoned and die.

"A person with high martial arts skills can draw his gun back faster than when he draws it out... In the same way, only those who can truly retreat without losing the opportunity can be said to be good at this art."

Slowly, Wang Hongtao thought about it again. Whether to advance or retreat, don't make it too difficult for yourself. It's better to live a more optimistic and free life. Just go with the situation. Your vanity is too strong and you have forgotten your original mission!

Just when Wang Hongtao was regaining his confidence and preparing for a big fight, Minister Chen Jiazhong called. It turned out that life is unpredictable!

"Hong Tao, congratulations to Qin Province for reaching the top. You have created history. I am proud of you!"

"Minister, I can only say that it was due to fate. The glory is only short-lived. The pressure behind it will be even greater. I am frightened and trembling now!"

"Haha, you don't need to worry about the rest. Your use has been put on the agenda and we have reached an agreement to be transferred out of Qin Province. I called you today because I want you to be prepared in advance and take care of everything at hand. Arrange it well, just know it yourself and don’t make any noise about it.”

"Minister, you know best how tight my mouth is! Can you tell me where I'm going?"

"Hong Tao, I really don't know about this. I can only wait until the dust settles. But do you have any ideas?"

Wang Hongtao thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Minister, I feel very confused. It doesn't matter where I go! Thinking of leaving Qin Province, I feel empty. I feel like I have completed my mission, and I even feel abandoned."

"Hongtao, a position is the embodiment of a task. If you have a position, you have a task, and if you have a task, you have responsibilities. Every position has corresponding tasks and leadership responsibilities, that is, being in the position, doing things, and shouldering the responsibilities. No matter what No matter where you go, the main leaders must plan the overall situation, set the direction, come up with ideas, and assume overall responsibility. They must do everything possible to improve the people's living standards and lay the foundation for greater progress in the future. You must know that your stage is not just Qin Province. But the whole country! Originally, I supported you as the Secretary of the Qin Provincial Committee, but after thinking about it, you still have to go out. Those who are good at planning the overall situation are not limited to one corner. They always stay in Qin Province and only care about themselves. In that one-third of an acre, your structure and vision will be limited, so I also support you to step out and explore the wider world."

"Thanks for the minister's suggestion. I'm just trying to be pretentious. It's hard to leave my homeland! Minister, please rest assured that I will adjust my mentality and do my duty no matter where I go. Minister, since I am leaving, I would like to recommend a few cadres."

"Tell me, I'm calling today to ask for your opinion. After all, Qin Province has been developed in your hands, and your opinion is very important. However, the position of Provincial Party Committee Secretary will be transferred from outside, so you don't have to worry about this. .”

"Minister, I understand. For the candidates for governor, I recommend Comrade Niu Qianhua, the executive vice governor; Comrade Tang Bing, the deputy governor, as the executive vice governor; Vice Governor Cheng Jian as the standing committee member and deputy governor; and Secretary-General of the Provincial Party Committee Lu Jianguo as the deputy governor. Gao Changyuan, secretary of the Hanjiang Municipal Party Committee, serves as the deputy governor; Chen Jie, deputy secretary of the Chang'an Municipal Party Committee, serves as the mayor of Chang'an; Tuo Xiaojun, executive deputy mayor of Chang'an City, serves as deputy secretary; Dong Hongbing, secretary-general of the Chang'an Municipal Party Committee, serves as the executive deputy mayor of Chang'an City. In addition, I would also like to recommend Comrade Guo Mingxiong, secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, to serve as deputy secretary of the Central Political and Legal Affairs Commission and ask the minister to mediate."

"You are really a lion and you don't know how to be humble at all!"

"Minister, I have stayed in Qin Province for so many years. Without the strong help of my comrades, I would not have achieved such impressive results. When I leave, I want them to have an ideal position. It is my personal wish, please minister Complete!"

"Well, if you dare to talk to me like this, I will try my best to coordinate, so let's do this for now, and I will tell you when I have the news."

"Minister, I will remember your support and kindness in my heart! Thank you for your careful cultivation and care over the years. Hong Tao will never forget it!"

"Okay, you boy!"

After hanging up the phone, Wang Hongtao suddenly felt sad. Are you leaving? Do you want to leave Qin Province, where I was born and raised, and my hometown where I have worked hard and struggled for nearly 20 years?

After going to work the next day, the staff of the provincial government vaguely felt that the governor was different and seemed more amiable.

Secretary Si Daiqiang was the first to feel the abnormality, because he saw the reluctance to leave and the slightest sadness in the eyes of the governor. So, he had the courage to ask: "Governor, are you leaving?"

"Dai Qiang, it is indeed possible. Let's talk about your work. I have found a position for you. Member of the Standing Committee of the Yingjiang Municipal Party Committee and Secretary of the Zhenbei District Party Committee is where I have been."

“Governor, no matter where you go, I want to continue to serve you!”

"It's better to go down. This will be more conducive to your growth. No matter how good your secretarial work is, you will be a secretary-general at most. Go to the grassroots level. There is a lot of potential in the vast world. I will pay attention to your growth. If you kill Zhenbei for me, , be careful I take care of you!"

"Governor, I will not embarrass you!" Sidaiqiang choked, "No matter where you go, you must take care of yourself, don't stay up late, and eat regularly..."

The sadness of parting came, and Wang Hongtao also felt something. He said: "Work hard, there is no such thing as a banquet in the world, and you will give me good news if you make achievements in the future! Don't say anything anymore, go and call Governor Niu, and then let me know." The sword is coming."

Sidaiqiang wiped his eyes and went out. After a while, Executive Vice Governor Niu Qianhua pushed in the door and asked, "Governor, what are your instructions?"

"Lao Niu, based on the current situation, I estimate that Jiangcheng and Hubei Province will soon be lifted from the 'city lockdown'. We have to prepare for a rainy day, formulate emergency plans, and continue to 'strictly guard' people in Hubei Province, and continue to guard all areas in Qin Province. 'Door' to keep the epidemic out."

"Governor, if the lockdown is really lifted, we must plan ahead. Don't worry, you have said it many times. We will execute the order and there will be no problem."

"Well, you can't be too careful. Lao Niu, there is one more thing we need to discuss. I will recommend you to Minister Jiazhong to be the governor of Qin Province."

"Ah?" Niu Qianhua was surprised and said, "Then I would like to congratulate the governor in advance. If I can really work with you, it will be an honor for me in my life. The provincial government will resolutely implement all decisions and arrangements of the provincial committee."

"Old Niu, don't be too optimistic, I might have to leave!"

"Ah? Governor, we have a position here, why should we leave? I don't think the people of the whole province will agree! Everyone wants to innovate and create greater glory under your leadership."

"It may backfire. There is a high probability that I will leave Qin Province. Where can I go without work? We are party cadres. We must obey the organizational arrangements, follow the instructions, adapt to the new position, and do our work conscientiously. It is up to us to bargain."

"Governor, executive and official positions are just one step away, like a chasm in the sky. No matter what, I want to thank you!"

"I would also like to thank you for your strong support of my work over the past year."

At this moment, Wang Hongtao realized what he was thinking. In fact, he didn’t want to leave. In fact, he wanted to stay!
