Official Way: Starting from Township Civil Servants

Xiao Yuanshan's main purpose at the governor's office meeting today was to get the provincial government to unite on this matter. To do this, he, the governor, could not decide directly, and it still needed to be discussed at the provincial regular meeting.

Fortunately, Xiao Yuanshan's prestige in the provincial government was sufficient. Although there were different voices at first, after he expressed his tough attitude, several deputy governors stopped talking.

The next step is to arrange the work and let the relevant departments continue to investigate and formulate a preliminary plan. The provincial government can handle this by itself.

But the so-called plan actually has no practical information, because this is the first time in the country, and there is no ready-made homework to copy. The most it can do is to formulate a reform goal, and the specific plan on how to implement it can only be explored in practice.

In other words, the leaders here can only arrange the tasks down to the cities and counties, and let these executors complete the details.

In fact, this is also a normal work process. You can't have a leader think about everything in detail, right? The most important thing for provincial leaders to do is to grasp the general direction.

However, at Xiao Yuanshan's request, this matter was still classified as a secret and should not be made public for the time being.

Another week later, Wang Yi accompanied Xiao Yuanshan to attend a regular provincial meeting. At this meeting, Xiao Yuanshan formally proposed the idea of ​​​​reforming township institutions.

The intensity of this provincial regular meeting was much more intense than that of the governor's office meeting.

In the past few days, Wang Yi also discovered from some details that Xiao Yuanshan met with several members of the Standing Committee alone during this period. Wang Yi didn't know what was being discussed in the meeting. He estimated that it was about the reform of township institutions.

In Wang Yi's view, it was Xiao Yuanshan who was seeking support. After all, for such a big matter, he could not stand alone at the provincial regular meeting. Without the support of a few standing committee members, it would be impossible for this matter to pass.

Some people support it, while others oppose it, and there are quite a few who oppose it.

The reasons for opposition are also very good. This kind of large-scale reform is not conducive to stability, and involves almost all administrative departments. If Jiangbei Province is not good, it may become the laughing stock of the whole country.

This was Wang Yi's first time to see such a tense meeting. These big shots, who were usually as stable as a rock, were tit for tat on an issue. They were usually amiable and courteous when meeting, but today they refused to give in.

Xiao Yuanshan is also a bit desperate this time. At his level, he can actually enjoy his rights safely, but this time he really wants to do practical things for the country and the people.

In the end, Xiao Yuanshan also saw the biggest source of resistance, so he said at the provincial regular meeting: "I brought up the matter. No matter whether it succeeds or not, no matter how successful it is, I, the governor, should bear full responsibility. It is better to establish a township organization." I personally serve as the leader of the reform leadership group."

After Xiao Yuanshan said this, the opposition was no longer so firm, because Xiao Yuanshan was showing that he would take full responsibility for any problems. If he strongly opposed it, it would be easy to make political enemies.

"Since Governor Xiao has said so, let's vote by a show of hands." The secretary finally spoke. He never clearly expressed his support or opposition, which was why there was such a fierce confrontation before.

A show of hands vote fully demonstrates democratic decision-making. If this fails, Governor Xiao will have to lobby privately if he wants to continue the implementation.

The voting process soon entered, and everyone in the conference room was a little nervous at this time. After all, this is a big matter, and once it is passed, it will have a profound impact on the entire Jiangbei Province.

Then the results of the voting came out, and the number of people who agreed was just one more than the number of people who objected, which meant that the provincial regular meeting passed the issue with a majority vote, and Xiao Yuanshan's goal was achieved.

However, because the words have been made very clear, although the provincial standing meeting passed, these standing committee members will not give Xiao Yuanshan much help. He can only rely on himself in this matter.

Subsequently, the provincial general office was conducting research and formulating plans around this matter. Xiao Yuanshan's early tone was indeed to use one county as a pilot project, so now the main task is to select a suitable county.

A few days later, reports on several candidate pilot counties appeared in Wang Yi's hands, and he needed to hand the report to Governor Xiao.

Wang Yi took a cursory look at several candidate pilot counties, and sure enough he saw Taichuan County among them.

In fact, these counties are all representative. They have the smallest registered population and the smallest towns under their jurisdiction in the province. They are also the smallest county in the province. They have the most economically powerful county in the province, and they also have the most impoverished county. Taiwan As the county with the largest population and towns under its jurisdiction, Sichuan County has also become a typical example.

In the process of selecting candidate pilot counties, Wang Yi did not interfere, nor did he recommend Taichuan County to other colleagues, because he felt that Taichuan County could not escape. If an accident happened, he would recommend Taichuan County to Xiao Yuanshan alone. Sichuan County is conducting a pilot project.

Wang Yi then took this material to the governor's office, but on the way he placed Taichuan County at the bottom.

"Leader, these are several alternative pilot counties. Please take a look." Wang Yi put down the materials and said.

"Oh, so fast? Have you read it?" Governor Xiao immediately looked at the materials, started to read them, and asked Wang Yi.

When Governor Xiao asked, Wang Yi naturally refused to leave, and then replied: "After a rough look, these counties are all models of our province in certain aspects, and they are all of great pilot value."

Hearing Wang Yi's answer, Governor Xiao nodded. This time the material was not very long. Governor Xiao also took a rough look at it, mainly to see which counties there were. After Wang Yi finished speaking, he basically had a rough look. .

Then Governor Xiao asked again: "Which one of these counties do you think is the most suitable?"

Governor Xiao's question was very clear. Of course, Wang Yi couldn't answer with any snake oil. The leader asked this question because he wanted you to give a clear answer.

So Wang Yi also said directly: "I think Taichuan County is the most suitable, because Taichuan County is the most populous county in the province and has a large number of towns under its jurisdiction. If the pilot in Taichuan County is successful, there will be no difficulties later."

Wang Yi not only answered, but also gave reasons.

"Taichuan County..." Governor Xiao didn't say anything, but when Wang Yi answered, he turned to the information on Taichuan County and looked at the data above carefully.

"Secretary Jiang Shanshan is also a young county party committee secretary and a lesbian. I wonder if she has the courage to do this kind of pilot?" Governor Xiao said in a low voice with his head buried in the materials.

"Secretary Jiang is also my old leader. Putting aside personal emotional factors, based on our working relationship for several years, she is a very capable and innovative cadre." Wang Yi directly talked about Jiang Shanshan's good qualities. , when he said these words, everyone knew that he was speaking for Jiang Shanshan, or that he was soliciting work.

"There are also personal emotional factors. It seems that your relationship with her is unusual?" Governor Xiao finally raised his head and looked at Wang Yi meaningfully.
