Rebirth of the Rising Sun

"Secretary Feng is amazing." Cao Datong said with emotion. He was just a little worried just now, but he dispelled this doubt with practical actions. Although he was not angry at all because he borrowed his deputy, he knew that with Feng Sizhe's current authority in Zhuangcheng City, he could completely control everything. For example, he didn't need to inform him about personnel matters, but he still respected him in everything, which in itself moved him very much, not to mention that he informed him of everything he was going to do in advance, which in itself was a kind of respect. "Please rest assured, Secretary Feng, I will fully support Comrade Ye Zhongda to do this well.

There was no need to discuss anything. After Feng Sizhe and Cao Datong reached a unified opinion, the double disclosure policy was implemented in Zhuangcheng City. The first to bear the brunt were the important departments such as the Municipal Party Committee Office, the Municipal Government Office, the Municipal Finance Bureau, the Municipal Education Bureau, the Municipal Land Bureau, the Municipal Taxation and Industry Bureau, etc. Under Feng Sizhe's strong advocacy, the work that was originally difficult to implement was unexpectedly smoothly implemented this time. All units adopted a supportive attitude towards the double disclosure. Even if some people were unwilling, they only had ideas in their hearts and did not dare to do anything in reality. They all knew that this matter was led by Secretary Feng. If they jumped out to oppose it at this time, they would really offend Secretary Feng, and they would be in trouble.

Inside a private room at the No. 1 Hotel in the city, Mayor Fu Yuqiang and Deputy Secretary He Jianzheng were facing a table full of delicious food and wine, neither of them touched their chopsticks; they just sat there in a daze.

Originally, they took advantage of the rumor that the city was going to reshuffle the cadres, and quickly gathered a group of people around them. They accepted as many people as they wanted. The idea of ​​the two was to build up their own power first, and then strengthen their influence, and seek certain positions for some capable people among them, and gradually change the situation where Feng Sizhe had the final say in Zhuangcheng.

Originally, they had been operating, and they knew the work arrangements for many cadres, and they were just waiting for the municipal party committee to hold a standing committee meeting to discuss so that they could speak openly and canvass votes for their people. But what they never expected was that Feng Sizhe would make a double disclosure at such a critical time, and the Organization Department subsequently issued a document stating that this time the city's cadre adjustment work would be based on the results of the double disclosure, and based on this result, it would decide which position would be filled.

This means that the Municipal Committee has its own set of rules for promoting and appointing cadres. With this rule, it will be more difficult for anyone who wants to place his own people in certain positions. After all, there is now a law to follow, and it is not just a matter of who you say is capable.

"Hey, Lao He, the Organization Department is one of the units you are in charge of, right? How come you didn't hear anything about this before?" Fu Yuqiang complained to He Jianzheng. He had promised some cadres that he would speak for them at a critical moment, but now he couldn't find a basis to speak. If the results of these cadres' public assessments were not ideal, how would he arrange for them? This became a difficult problem.

"Hey, Cao Datong doesn't take me seriously at all. He reports directly to Feng Sizhe whenever there is something wrong. I am just a deaf ear. What can you tell me to do?" He Jianzheng also had a hard time. He was sent by the Lu faction and was not on the same page with Feng Sizhe. This matter was no secret in Zhuangcheng. And because of this reason, many people kept a certain distance from him. The reason was simple, that is, they were afraid of being affected. Standing with Secretary Feng was like courting death.

Listening to He Jianzheng's voice of injustice, Fu Yuqiang didn't know what to say except shaking his head. When he came to Zhuangcheng before, he had expected the difficulties, but the actual situation was far more complicated than he imagined. He didn't expect Feng Sizhe to have built Zhuangcheng like an iron cylinder, where a needle couldn't be inserted and water couldn't be poured in. After he came here, he was completely useless. Let alone his intervention in the personnel issues of the Municipal Party Committee, he couldn't even handle the work of the Municipal Government. From the Standing Committee Deputy Mayor to the ordinary Deputy Mayor, no one listened to him. On his side, even the bureau-level units under the jurisdiction of the Municipal Government didn't have many people who listened to him. This made him very depressed as the mayor. He wanted to report the situation to the higher-ups, but the development of Zhuangcheng was indeed seen by everyone. Even without him as the mayor, it was still developing at a great pace. He had no way to appeal. You can't say to the higher-ups that Zhuangcheng is still developing well without me as the mayor. If that's the case, he's afraid he won't be able to continue as the mayor.

Fu Yuqiang originally wanted to rely on Qin Tian behind him to put pressure on Feng Sizhe and let him give him some power, but he didn't expect that the relationship between the two suddenly became tense. He once tried to call Qin Tian, ​​but the other party's answer was that he would try his best, and he didn't say anything else. Obviously, something must have gone wrong.

Without Qin Tian's support, Fu Yuqiang was like losing a leg. Coupled with the unanimous xenophobia of the Zhuangcheng Municipal Government, he was missing another leg. Without these two legs, he was really a useless mayor.

Unfortunately, He Jianzheng, his only supporter, has not been given any real power. He could have had a great say in personnel matters, but because Feng Sizhe was dissatisfied with him, he was excluded from many things. It was really a pair of cowards meeting each other, how cowardly it was.

The two looked up at each other, then lowered their heads at the same time, feeling very aggrieved, but they could not think of a way to solve the problem. They really regretted coming to Zhuangcheng City in the first place. If they had known this would happen, they would have stayed in their original unit and waited for other opportunities to be transferred out before rushing out. It would be better than the current situation, right?

The day of major personnel adjustments in Zhuangcheng City finally arrived as scheduled. During this period, the assessment results of the double-opening of the Municipal Organization Department were also released. A group of cadres with strong working abilities got high scores, while some cadres who only knew how to climb high branches and curry favor with others did not get the desired scores.

Some people may be disappointed by this result, but many people do not take it seriously, thinking that this is just a showpiece by the Municipal Organization Department. Does the Municipal Party Committee really select cadres in this way? The promotion of officials has always been linked to the struggles among the top leaders. How can this really reflect democracy?

After everyone thought that the dual assessment was just a formality, the Municipal Party Committee finally convened a standing committee meeting to begin discussing the issue of cadre adjustments.

Party chess pieces were flying, the No. 1 meeting room of the Zhuangcheng Municipal Committee was cleaned up, and the brand new tea sets, the clean meeting table that could reflect people's shadows, and the bright red carpet all showed that today was an important day. At 9 o'clock in the morning, Comrade Feng Sizhe, member of the Standing Committee of the Zhongzhou Provincial Committee and Secretary of the Zhuangcheng Municipal Committee, led the applause and walked into the meeting room. In front of Feng Sizhe were two members of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Committee, namely, Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Committee Lv Xianwen and Provincial Organization Minister Ji Ming. These two people were invited by Feng Sizhe to attend this meeting in order to show the importance of the Provincial Committee to the personnel adjustment of the Zhuangcheng Municipal Committee, and also to express their support.

After all fourteen participants took their seats, the meeting officially began with Feng Sizhe presiding over it.

The first personnel election at the meeting was to elect the candidate for the secretary general of the municipal party committee. Lin Gang had been taken away by the provincial disciplinary committee for a while. The organization decided that during his tenure as secretary general of the municipal party committee, he abused his power for personal gain and accepted bribes. Although the amount was not huge, his position as secretary general was definitely unstable because of this issue.

Regarding this matter, the Provincial Party Committee discussed and decided to remove Comrade Lin Gang from his positions as member, standing committee member, and secretary-general of the Zhuangcheng Municipal Party Committee, and wait for the organization to have a complete investigation before making the final decision. It also agreed that the Standing Committee of the Zhuangcheng Municipal Party Committee would hold a meeting to study and decide on the candidate for secretary-general. The first item of this meeting was this candidate. Comrades Lu Xianwen and Ji Ming were also prepared, and were just waiting to report the results to the Provincial Party Committee as soon as they got them, and at the same time appoint a new secretary-general of the Zhuangcheng Municipal Party Committee.

In theory, the municipal party secretary has a lot of say in the selection of the municipal party secretary. After all, the main job of the secretary is to serve the secretary well. For this reason, everyone thinks that Feng Sizhe has a lot of say. But this time Feng Sizhe did not take the initiative to propose who should take up this position, but gave the right to recommend to everyone, which fully demonstrated democracy. Of course, the more important thing is that Feng Sizhe has a bottom line in his mind.

Deputy Secretary He Jianzheng, who was unaware of the situation, was very happy. In his opinion, Feng Sizhe's humble and self-improving style was a manifestation of arrogance. "You don't even fight for the position of member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, so I will fight for you. It will be too late to regret it once the decision is made."

For this reason, when Feng Sizhe just announced the discussion on this matter, He Jianzheng immediately proposed Han Mo as a candidate. He said, "Comrade Han Mo is a firm Marxist, a good cadre with a stand and principles, with strong working ability and a steady working style. Such a person is suitable to be the secretary-general."

As soon as He Jianzheng finished his speech, Mayor Fu Yuqiang expressed his support. At the same time, United Front Work Department Minister Mao Shiming also expressed his support.

The three consecutive votes of support clearly showed the strength of Fu Yuqiang and He Jianzheng, and of course this was all they could do. But it was also a good thing that they could seize the initiative at the beginning of the meeting, at least they had made a good start.

"Well, Comrade Han Mo is indeed a good cadre, and I support him to be the secretary general of the municipal party committee." Feng Sizhe also quickly expressed his attitude after the three people finished speaking. In fact, Feng Sizhe has always supported this matter, and the provincial party secretary Guan Changxiao has greeted him about this matter, saying that this is also the intention of the provincial governor Tang Chengwei. In view of the fact that they had some unpleasant things last time because of the candidate for the secretary of the Yongyang Municipal Party Committee, Tang Chengwei even went to the central government to complain about that matter. Although the central government did not say anything about it, it still attracted Feng Sizhe's attention. In order not to give the upper level a bad impression that he did not obey his superiors, this time he was also prepared to follow Tang Chengwei's wishes to recommend Comrade Han Mo. Of course, what Comrade Han Mo's position will be in the end, it is not up to Tang Chengwei or Fu Yuqiang and He Jianzheng to decide.
