Official Ladder [Grassroots Civil Servants]

After the call was connected, Wang Hongtao said respectfully, "Minister!"

Chen Deming's hearty yet majestic voice came from the phone: "Hong Tao, congratulations to you and Yinzhou for your impressive achievements!"

"Minister, everything I should do is to be in his position, seek his job, take his responsibility, and do his best. Since the organization has handed over Yinzhou to me, then I have to wholeheartedly make Yinzhou's economy develop and let Yinzhou The common people are getting rich!"

"That being said, how many people can really do it? Most of them are shouting slogans loudly, but implementing them is light; there are still some people who are limited in ability, unable to meet the requirements of the organization, and unable to complete the organization. The mission entrusted to you! Hongtao, the achievements Yinzhou has made this time are of great significance and are extremely beneficial to your further development. I hope you will not be arrogant or impetuous, and make persistent efforts to create greater brilliance!"

"Minister, please rest assured, I am confident that there will be a slight increase in the overall by the end of the year, and I will advance one or two places in the national ranking!"

"Okay, then I'll wait to hear your good news! We haven't seen each other for a long time, come and sit with me when you return to Beijing."

"Okay, minister, I must listen to your teachings, then I won't bother you!"

After hanging up the phone, Wang Hongtao was overwhelmed with emotion. Sure enough, the biggest affirmation was the approval from the leader. Wang Hongtao became more confident in the future development!

As soon as I hung up the phone, the ring rang again. This time it was Chen Jiazhong, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, who quickly connected.

"Hong Tao, there will be a half-year evaluation meeting the day after tomorrow, you should come here yourself!"

"Secretary, I won't go, right? It's more appropriate for the mayor to go to this kind of meeting. I thought the half-year assessment meeting wouldn't be held."

"It is because of your data verification in Yinzhou that the National Bureau of Statistics has not released the data for a long time, which made it impossible to hold the meeting. It is estimated that the situation is the same in all provinces and cities across the country."

"Hey, Secretary, you still don't trust us! We have achieved some results, but people are still suspicious, and they came to investigate us. You don't know, two big carts came here. Fortunately, I am confident enough to let them investigate. Let Er wind from east to west, from north to south, I stand still!"

Chen Jiazhong joked: "You say you are fat, but you are still panting? You must come to the half-year assessment meeting, and you will be rewarded for your merits. This time, the province has ranked first in the country. The most important reason is the extraordinary development of Yinzhou , which led to a significant increase in the data, and the governor and I want you to make an exchange speech, make an exception and take out [-] million yuan, in recognition of Yinzhou's great contribution!"

"Secretary, let's accept the money with a smile, let's forget about the speech! You often teach me that if the old tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it; Yinzhou is high-profile enough this time, and now many leaders have called to denounce us. Can you discuss it with the governor, we in Yinzhou will not make a speech, and I will attend, mainly because I haven’t seen you for a long time, yes The secretary misses you very much, and I will report to you about my work."

"What you said has some truth. Yinzhou's limelight is indeed big enough. I will communicate with the governor again. But I still prepare the materials for the speech, so as to be prepared."

"Good secretary."

"Since you're in the province, don't talk about it on the phone. We'll talk about it later."

On August 8, Wang Hongtao explained the work in the city to He Long, the deputy secretary, and set off with Lu Jianguo to participate in the "Catching and Surpassing High-quality Economic Development" and half-year economic review meeting held in the province.

On the plane, Lu Jianguo said: "Secretary, it's not that I won't speak anymore, why did the provincial government office notify you to make an exchange speech?"

"Hey, I even called Secretary Chen back. Maybe it was because of the meeting considerations. That's not an honor. I think it's putting our Yinzhou on the fire!"

Lu Jianguo smiled and said, "I think this is an honor that our Yinzhou deserves. I heard that there is also a bonus. I wonder how much it is?"

"Secretary Chen said it was [-] million yuan. Jianguo, when the money is in place, let's use it to clean up government debts. Our Yinzhou will have a big breakthrough in fiscal revenue this year. I want to completely solve the city's debt problem during my term of office and not leave it to my successor. incur any debts."

"Then follow the secretary's instructions, but which part of the province or the whole country has no debts?"

Wang Hongtao said firmly: "No matter what they do, let's do our own thing. Cleaning up the government affairs is also a great achievement. No matter where we go, we dare to say with confidence that we have no debts in Yinzhou! In my opinion, government debts have already become a problem. It has become a serious social harm in economic life, and we must pay serious attention to it. First, it created a bad example of local government borrowing to promote construction projects. The debt economy and loan economy have intensified. Local officials are seeking funding sources for their political achievements. Out of more than 600 cities, 185 cities have proposed to build international metropolises. Bigger than the world, better than the world, what a joke The third reason is that the government’s debt-funded performance projects have become a model of economic waste. Money belongs to the state, and projects belong to the state. Economic benefits take a backseat here, while leaders’ will and local officials’ performance benefits rise to’ Path priority'. The fourth is that it conspires with power capital to form a soil of corruption. Where the 'corrupt elements' are, they are in the performance projects and debts. Fifth, the causes of government debt are complicated and difficult to repay, involving government economic departments In all aspects, the intricate relationship between the previous and subsequent leadership groups has affected the image of the local government, and has become a major obstacle to building a harmonious society. Sixth, the ultimate 'payer' for government debts can only be the general public, and it can only be everyone. taxpayer.

The serious consequences caused by government debt are incompatible with the market economy.In fact, it has become a new economic hazard.In this regard, we must firmly say 'no', Yinzhou does not do the kind of thing that quenches thirst with doves, new officials have to deal with old accounts, we must let the historical burden be cleared, and the battle can be done lightly! "

"Secretary, I listen to you, and we have the spare capacity to do this now. I didn't say that we should reduce the debt to more than 200 billion this year. In the past six months, there will be more than 100 billion in local fiscal revenue. I will strive to reduce the debt. It should be less than 150 billion yuan, and you can pay as much as you can!"

When he arrived in the province, Wang Hongtao said: "Jianguo, there is still enough time. I'll go to the secretary, and you can go to the governor to report. The smell of wine is still afraid of deep alleys. We have to sell melons and boast to ourselves. Report the work to the governor in detail and show your merits.”

Lu Jianguo smiled and said, "Understood, the city government has also planned several projects, and by the way, seek the support of the provincial government."

"Okay, the commendation can't be limited to verbal praise, we have to support our work in real terms, and only children who can cry will have milk! Do everything possible to get funds, and our debts can be resolved one day sooner."

Seeing that the secretary kept talking about the debt problem, Lu Jianguo also paid attention to it. It seemed that he had to pay more attention to the debt problem.

After separation, Wang Hongtao took Si Daiqiang and Yu Jiangtao to the Provincial Party Committee.

Zhou Hongjun, the director of the first division, was looking at the materials when he suddenly saw Wang Hongtao appearing, so he hurried out to meet them, warmly greeted the three of them, and personally made tea for them.

Zhou Hongjun said in a low voice: "Secretary Wang, Director Li of the Organization Department is inside and is reporting personnel issues to the secretary. The Standing Committee should be held in a few days. All personnel appointments in Yinzhou have passed!"

"Thank you, Red Army! Let me wait for the minister to finish his report. How is Wang Gang doing now? How is this kid doing?"

"I put him in one place, usually follow me, I'll call him over."

After a while, Wang Gang came in. Seeing Wang Hongtao was very happy, he skillfully filled the cup with some water, and said happily, "Secretary, you are here!"

"Gangzi, I heard from the Red Army that you have done a good job. I am very satisfied. I must continue to work hard!"

"Secretary, Director Zhou took good care of me, and solved my major grade a while ago. Please rest assured, I will definitely work hard!"

"Red Army, thank you!"

"What's the point? It's because he is excellent himself, and there is a vacancy in the department, so he follows the trend, and the secretary-general is also very supportive."

Zhou Hongjun was reciprocating. With Wang Hongtao's current situation, even if he was the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, he would not be able to help him at all, because Wang Hongtao had direct access to heaven, and his relationship with the secretary was much better than his own. On the one hand, I tried my best and expressed my thanks. It seems that the effect is good.

After a while, Minister Li Yixiao came out of Secretary Chen Jiazhong's office. After seeing Wang Hongtao, he came in to say hello, and said, "Are you here for a meeting? If you're not busy, go sit at my place!"

"Report to work first, and see what time it will be finished. If it is too late, we will have dinner together at night."

"Okay, wait for your letter!"

Zhou Hongjun led Wang Hongtao directly into the secretary's office, completely ignoring the other people who lined up. Those people dared not speak out. Who didn't know that Wang Hongtao was so red now that he was purple and hot!

After Zhou Hongjun made tea, he went out. Wang Hongtao sat on the guest chair opposite the secretary's desk and said with a smile, "Secretary, I'm here to report to you."

Seeing Wang Hongtao, Chen Jiazhong was in a good mood. In the past two days, he had received many praises from the leaders of the central government. As long as it was an honor within the Qin Province, his share would never be missing. You Fang, to paraphrase Qin Huang's sentence: The whole province is worth it!

"Hong Tao, you really did live up to the expectations of the Provincial Party Committee. This time, you really gave Qin Provincial a big sigh of relief! I don't think anyone would dare to say that you used it wrong!"

"Secretary, all these achievements are all thanks to your support. Without your efforts at that time, I would not have had the opportunity to be the secretary of the municipal party committee. !"

Chen Jiazhong said with a smile: "Don't be proud, the speed of Yinzhou cannot be slowed down, and strive to continue to make efforts at the end of the year to strongly support the growth rate of the province."

"Secretary, I will do my best. I will not discount tasks, delay time, or lower standards. I am confident that I will continue to add bricks and tiles to the province at the end of the year. Our project reserves can fully support the rapid economic development of Yinzhou."

Chen Jiazhong asked: "What do you plan to do next?"

Wang Hongtao thought for a while and said: "The focus is still on project construction, the work style of cadres, continuous optimization of the business environment, and a good job in various livelihood tasks. Then, we need to prepare the '[-]th Five-Year Plan' to point out the direction for development in the next five years. We plan to use two years to completely clean up the government debt, so that Yinzhou can go into battle with ease and help the rapid economic development.”

"Okay! How much debt does Yinzhou have now?"

"The municipal level can control it below 150 billion yuan this year, and the total amount of the counties and districts should be below 200 billion yuan. There are fewer in the six southern counties, and the bulk is in the six northern counties. Most of them are old accounts. During my tenure, it is absolutely It is not allowed to borrow money for construction, and it is not allowed to engage in any image projects or performance projects, for which I dealt with many people.”

Chen Jiazhong nodded and said, "Hong Tao, what I admire the most is that you are dedicated to the people, not exaggerated, and do things in a down-to-earth manner. Being able to clear government debts is also a great achievement. Your starting point and access point are both Yes, Yinzhou is also capable of doing this now, but everything has to be compromised by my economic development, and I can’t put the cart before the horse.”

"Secretary, I wrote it down!"

"It's not easy for you to come to the province. Let me treat you to dinner tonight!"

"Secretary, don't dare, how can I ask you to invite me, I must invite you!"

Chen Jiazhong smiled and said: "Okay, I forgot, you are much richer than me, you are truly the richest civil servant in the whole province!"

"Secretary, I just promised Minister Li of the Organization Department to have dinner together at night. Is it appropriate to put them together?"

"Okay, call Yixiao, and your old leader, Guo Mingxiong, seems to be here for the meeting too?"

Exactly what I want!

Wang Hongtao sat down again, then got up to say goodbye, and Zhang Luo left for the evening banquet.
