Rebirth of the Rising Sun

In April 2003, the Shanxi Provincial Party Committee received a notice from the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee and went to the deputy ministerial level training class of the Central Party School to study together with Comrade Feng Sizhe, secretary of the Shanxi Municipal Party Committee.

Upon receiving the notice, Zeng Ke, member of the Standing Committee of the Shanxi Provincial Party Committee and Minister of Organization, personally called Feng Sizhe to convey the matter and asked Feng Sizhe to report to the Central Party School within seven days. Because the study is full-time, students are required to live in the Central Party School. Unless there is a major event in their unit, they are not allowed to take leave.

Feng Sizhe was very happy after receiving the notice. Although he had known about this matter for a long time, it was not 100% settled. Now that he received the notice, he knew that this was a fact set in stone, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hello, Secretary-General Guan, please notify everyone to convene a meeting of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee in one hour." Feng Sizhe picked up the phone and gave instructions to Guan Haojiang.

Fifty minutes later, all twelve members of the Tongda Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee came to the No. 1 meeting room of the Municipal Party Committee and sat down. They didn't know why this tense meeting was held. Several people were discussing it and guessing what the theme of the meeting was. In their opinion, the personnel issues of Tongda City had just been arranged. Unless something urgent happened, the Standing Committee would not discuss personnel issues.

Mayor Ru Honghai, however, was sitting there drinking tea at a leisurely pace. He was actually excited, even very excited, because he knew very well that the secretary must have received a notice that Feng Sizhe was going to study at the Central Party School. In this case, Feng Sizhe would probably leave Tongda City. In that case, he would have the final say here. If things went well, it would not be impossible for him to become the secretary of the municipal party committee from the mayor. Although the secretary of the municipal party committee and the mayor were both at the department level, the mayor was only in charge of the economy, while the secretary of the municipal party committee could indeed handle both the economy and personnel, and his power would naturally be much greater.

Exactly one hour later, Feng Sizhe appeared in Conference Room No. 1 on time. This was a habit he had developed over a long period of time. Unless there was something going on, he would always be punctual in doing things.

"Comrades, are all here?" Feng Sizhe asked, looking at Guan Haojiang.

"Secretary Feng, everyone is here." Guan Haojiang answered respectfully. During this period of time, he and Feng Sizhe had cooperated well in work. Since the Gan faction had problems and Mou Guoyang was arrested, the Gan faction in Tongda City had completely dispersed. Their core personnel were gone, so these people who used to be Gan faction members naturally worked cautiously because they were afraid that others would settle accounts with them later. Although the Gan faction cadres in Tongda City had not had any problems at work because they had been here for a short time, they were still Gan faction members after all. Based on this point, it would be easy for others to find excuses to deal with them.

However, these Gansu people who were originally feeling guilty did discover a problem. That is, after Mou Guoyang was placed under double supervision, the city did not have any intention of targeting the Gan people. Even Feng Sizhe, who had been fighting against the Gan people, did not make any statement. On the contrary, Secretary Feng let them do the work they were supposed to do, as if he completely trusted them. As a result, everyone, including the member of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee who had framed Feng Sizhe because of the photo incident, and the mountain area party committee secretary Pan Jianshan, got into work mode and began to work hard using their expertise.

Guan Haojiang was one of the people who expressed his attitude relatively early. Mou Guoyang was taken down because of his timely response. For this reason, Guan Haojiang was not afraid of what Feng Sizhe would do to him, but now that he saw that Feng Sizhe not only did not cause trouble for him, but also did not cause trouble for other Gansu people, he could not help but feel a little moved. He saw that Feng Sizhe was not targeting the Gansu people for the sake of targeting them, but was really focused on work. Just look at it, as long as the Gansu people worked hard, he would not do anything to them.

Thinking that the Gan faction has declined now, where will he go in the future? He couldn't help but look more at Feng Sizhe. In Guan Haojiang's view, if he could establish a good relationship with this young man, it would be a good thing for his future development. For example, his superior Yu Guijuan, the Minister of Propaganda of Shanxi Provincial Party Committee, was already incompatible with the Gan faction, so there was naturally no need for him to develop in the Gan faction.

Guan Haojiang has already had the idea of ​​relying on Feng Sizhe. In fact, it's not just him. Even the city's Commission for Discipline Inspection Secretary Hong Tao Hechang doesn't think so. He used to be a cadre of the Gansu faction and temporarily switched camps. It is conceivable that people like them, even if they want to rely on others in the future, most people probably won't want them, nor dare to. For this reason, only Feng Sizhe can take him in. Although it seems that Feng Sizhe has only his grandfather, a member of the Central Military Commission, supporting him at the top, it's better than nothing. Besides, Feng Sizhe himself is capable and has a unique personal charm, which makes people want to work with him.

Feng Sizhe, who was already sitting in the first seat, naturally didn't know what these two people were thinking. He was still thinking about going to the Central Party School. He was still thinking that after entering the school, there would definitely be many classmates in the system. Since he wanted to develop the Feng faction, could he see if there were suitable candidates there? Because Tongda City used to be in the Gan faction camp, he had not thought about developing his influence from here yet.

"Well, everyone is here. Let's start the meeting now. The content of today's meeting is actually one thing. I just received a call from Minister Zeng of the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department, asking me to report to the Central Party School within seven days to attend the deputy ministerial level training class. I called everyone here today to talk about this matter. This training will last for three months and it is off-duty training. That is to say, if there is no major event in the city, I will basically have to study on the job. During the time when I am not in the Municipal Party Committee, Mayor Ru and Secretary Song will take charge of the work of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government."

After briefly explaining the main content of the meeting, Feng Sizhe picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. He knew that his going to study was very sudden for some people, but at the same time, some people would be very happy after knowing the news.

Feng Sizhe had a good idea. When he went out to study, he was actually waiting for complete delegation of power. Although the study time was only three months, everyone knew that under normal circumstances, those who went to the Central Party School for further studies would be promoted after returning. Although the deputy ministerial study class was not as good as the deputy ministerial training class, and it was possible that he would not be promoted to a deputy ministerial position immediately, it was anyway considered that he was prepared in this regard. Even if Feng Sizhe was not promoted to a deputy ministerial official after studying, it seemed unlikely that he would be the secretary of the Tongda Municipal Party Committee after returning. The best way was to go to a central ministry for training for a while, and then wait for an opportunity to go to a province to be the deputy governor.

Everyone is clear about this routine. When they heard that Feng Sizhe was going to study, many people were happy. After all, this meant that Feng Sizhe was leaving. If this was the case, it meant that the position of Secretary of the Tongda Municipal Party Committee would be vacant. In this way, some of them might be promoted to a higher level. Even if their rank remained the same, their positions could be moved up, which was also good.

Of course, some people are happy and some are sad. For example, Hong Tao, secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, and Guan Haojiang, secretary general of the Municipal Party Committee, who have already made preparations to get closer to Feng Sizhe, are not in a very good mood.

These two people just decided to join Feng Sizhe and do something to change the negative influence of being Gan's family, but they haven't done anything yet? Feng Sizhe is leaving, although he is only going to study, but the possibility of returning to Tongda City to work is much smaller, so they have no idea where to go in the future.

After Feng Sizhe finished speaking, Mayor Ru Honghai took the lead in applauding, and the others followed suit. After all, a sedan chair is carried by many people, and knowing that Feng Sizhe might be leaving, and that his fortunes were on the rise, the others would naturally congratulate him and leave a good impression on Feng Sizhe.

After the applause, Ru Honghai finished, "Secretary Feng is a good cadre who is serious, principled, courageous and capable. I have learned a lot from such a secretary. Now Secretary Feng is valued by the organization, which makes me proud. In the future, when Secretary Feng is not in Tongda City, our municipal government will work hard and strive for innovative achievements."

"Yes, Secretary Feng's going to study fully proves the importance the provincial party committee and government attach to our city. At the same time, I also feel the heavy responsibility on my shoulders. While Feng Sizhe is away studying, I will definitely cooperate with Mayor Ru to ensure the stability of the work of the municipal party committee. Of course, if there is anything big, we still have to ask Secretary Feng to make the decision." Song Gao, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, also made the same guarantee.

Next, other members of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee also congratulated Feng Sizhe on his plan to study at the Central Party School. At the same time, they also firmly expressed their determination to do their own jobs well.

Feng Sizhe kept nodding his head while listening to these topics that were not very nutritious. On the surface, he seemed to be very serious, but in fact, he was thinking about the problems after leaving Tongda City. Speaking of which, he has been the secretary of the Tongda Municipal Party Committee for two years. He has done a lot here. After being selected by Comrade Bao Jingguo and being appointed here, he first solved the problem of coal mine safety in Tongda City. Now the results of Tongda City's coal mine safety work have been very significant. Although it cannot be said that there are zero accidents, compared with previous years, the accident rate here has indeed been reduced to the lowest line, which has completely satisfied Comrade Bao Jingguo. Then Feng Sizhe also solved the problem of Gansu's complete monopoly of Tongda City's coal mining industry, because the entry of five large coal mining companies such as Pengfei effectively solved the problem of high coal prices in Tongda City. At the same time, because their production lines are extremely advanced internationally, they naturally produce clean coal, which has made a significant contribution to saving resources. Then there is the issue of double disclosure of financial information, which enables the people to know where every penny of public money is spent, and what the officials are busy with all year round. At the same time, the public assessment system after the double disclosure has put a spell of confinement on all officials, greatly improving their enthusiasm for work. It can be said that the officialdom of Tongda City is really clear now. It cannot be said that every official is very qualified for his job, but at least most of the officials and cadres can stand the test.
