Rebirth as an official

"Why are you doing this so formally?" Xu Kai frowned a little. He played dungeons until three o'clock last night, and drove here to see students off in the morning. Now is the time when people and horses are exhausted.

"Let's go, let's go. Even if you doze off at the meeting, it's better than being criticized." Li An reluctantly took Xu Kai to the county government.

Li An felt that this young man seemed to have no interest in officialdom, and he didn't know why he chose to go to Yangdong for training.

Maybe it was requested by the family.

But this is Xu Kai's private matter, and it is not convenient for Li An to inquire about it.

Yesterday afternoon, Li An received a call from Yu Yang. He was recommended by the township to participate in this exchange meeting as an outstanding young cadre of Guanmiao Township.

When he heard the news, Li An's mind immediately thought of everything about this exchange meeting.

Because this exchange meeting became a new starting point for the careers of many rising political stars.

This "Young Cadres Party History Study and Education Experience Exchange Meeting" was not initiated by the Yangdong County Youth League Committee, but by the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department and the Propaganda Department, and was held across the province.

The purpose of holding this exchange meeting is to conduct an inspection of outstanding young cadres under the age of 25 across the province.

The provincial party committee wants to see whether these young cadres attach great importance to this event, so as to find out some young people with excellent political qualities and great potential.

Qingchuan Province has 84 counties and districts under its jurisdiction, all of which have inspectors arranged by the Provincial Party Committee’s Organization Department and Propaganda Department. It can be said that this is a big game played by the Qingchuan Provincial Party Committee to reserve future cadres.

However, this matter is strictly confidential, and only a few people will know the true purpose of this exchange meeting.

Li An also learned about this from an old leader many years later.

He couldn't help sighing at that time. He also participated in the exchange meeting at that time, but he just went through the motions and listened, let alone took the initiative to speak.

Elbert Hubbard once said a well-known saying: "Opportunity is reserved for those who are prepared, not for those who are doing nothing and waiting for opportunity."

After many years of summary, Ang Lee feels that even if you are always prepared, you may not encounter an opportunity. Even if an "opportunity" appears, you must know that it is an opportunity.

How many people in the officialdom are not unprepared, but they don't know when the opportunity comes.

There are a total of 35 party and government agencies and 28 towns in Yangdong County. Each department or town in this activity room must recommend a party member cadre under the age of 25 to participate, a total of 64 people.

Li An and Xu Kai came to the large conference room on the second floor of the county government that can accommodate 100 people for meetings.

This place has been arranged in advance by the cadres of the Youth League Committee. It is no longer the layout of the main stage in front and the audience seats below when holding conferences.

Today’s layout is the standard interview layout.

The table in the middle is surrounded by a rectangle, and then there are tables one on top of another, with place cards placed on each table.

Li An and Xu Kai first signed in at the door, and then noticed a man in his 30s wearing a white shirt and black trousers sitting near the wall. This was probably an inspector sent by the provincial party committee. .

Li An saw the seat card with "Guan Miao Township" placed in the middle of the second row. This position was not bad, at least the leader could see it when he spoke for a while.

It was already [-]:[-] at this time, and there were not many people at the venue. There were only about thirty people sitting sparsely.

However, this situation is normal. After all, it is an activity organized by the county Youth League Committee in name, and I don’t know that any big leaders are participating. It is normal not to pay attention to it.

Even though the County Youth League Committee is a department-level department, the Secretary of the Youth League Committee has the same rank as the Secretary of the Township Party Committee and the Director of the County Bureau, but it is indeed a cold department with no real power.

If the township head or director is transferred to the county youth league committee as secretary, he will definitely be marginalized, which is equivalent to being "relegated to the sidelines" in the officialdom.

The time came to nine o'clock.

The exchange meeting was about to begin, but there were still a dozen empty seats in the venue.

Li An also noticed that the inspector from the provincial party committee behind him walked to the door, picked up the sign-in form and started recording this. It could be seen from his expression that he must be very dissatisfied.

A few more minutes passed, and several more people came one after another. After those people wrote their names on the sign-in form, the inspector marked all their names.

Li An couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw this scene.

"Those who are late or do not come will never dream of what they will lose. If they do not encounter big opportunities in the future, the most they can do in their official career is to be a chief clerk."

At [-]:[-], when County Party Secretary Chen Xingsheng appeared at the meeting, all the young cadres present except Li An showed surprised expressions.

Who would have thought that the dignified county party committee secretaries would participate in the "Party History Study and Education Experience Exchange Meeting" organized by the Youth League Committee.

And someone noticed that there was a man in his 40s next to him. He was not tall, had an ordinary appearance, and had some gray hair on his temples.

Although no one knows who the person is, his status is definitely not low.

Because Chen Xingsheng's current appearance was obviously that of a companion, Li An recognized this man's identity.

His name is Xiao Mingbo, and he should still be the deputy director of the [-]nd Cadre Division of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee. Although he is one level lower than Chen Xingsheng, his political status and power are much greater than Chen Xingsheng.

The Second Cadre Division of the Provincial Party Committee is responsible for inspecting the municipal leadership teams at or above the prefecture level and provincial cadres managed by the Provincial Party Committee, and making suggestions for the leadership team change, adjustment of staffing, appointment and dismissal of cadres, exchanges, remuneration, retirement, etc.

In the organizational department, it is a basic principle that cadres should be subordinated to one level.

In theory, county party committee secretaries at the division level should be managed by the municipal party committee and included in the category of municipal cadres.

However, in fact, due to the special status of county party committee secretaries, almost all provinces and cities have promoted county party committee secretaries to the ranks of provincial cadres.

Regardless of whether you are promoted from any position to serve as county party secretary, or whether you are transferred to the county party secretary from the county, district chief or other division-level leader, according to the procedures, you need to be inspected and recommended by the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department, make public announcements, and the municipal party committee Organization Department assists in management.

In the pre-appointment announcements of cadres we see on TV, we often see "So-and-so is proposed to be appointed secretary of the county or district party committee." The final signature of the announcement is from the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee.

Of course, this does not mean that the municipal party committee has no jurisdiction over the county party secretary. In fact, the appointment of a county party secretary will usually respect the opinions of the municipal party committee leadership.

However, the inspection opinions of the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department are also very important. Although it cannot be accomplished, there is one thing that can indeed be accomplished.

Therefore, it is understandable no matter how respectful Chen Xingsheng is to the deputy director of the Second Cadre Division. .
