Chapter 345

After talking with Wang Zhikun, Lu Fan asked the County Chief, Organization Department Head, Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary, and Political and Legal Committee Secretary to his office to discuss matters related to Ganshui's year-end assessment.

After everyone arrived, Lu Fan walked to the reception room, smiling and saying: "Let's talk about something behind closed doors first: we should be in the top three in the city for the year-end assessment!"

As soon as the words fell, several leaders began to applaud in unison.

Guo Tongyu said: "The Secretary has made great contributions. Our Ganshui has been ranked at the bottom of the city for many years, and the goal of every assessment is to get rid of the bottom three. This year, under the leadership of the Secretary, we have achieved a historic breakthrough, which is gratifying and worth writing about!"

Seeing that others also wanted to speak, Lu laughed and said: "We are all our own people, so let's not say flattering words. I called you here this year to discuss our county's internal assessment. If we can really get into the top three, our Ganshui will be in the excellent category this year, and we can issue bonuses to cadres and employees. Referring to other counties and districts, the situation in Zhenbei District is that the excellent category award for the whole county is 18,000, and good is 16,000; Ningyang County is 8,000 and 6,000, and Anbao County is also 8,000 and 6,000. Our financial situation cannot be compared with the city and Zhenbei District, but we can refer to the situation of other counties. County Chief, you manage the money, what do you think?"

Weiwei calculated in his heart that it would take about 10 million, so he said: "Acceptable. Appropriate rewards can mobilize the enthusiasm of cadres to work and can promote each unit to strive for excellence. Money is the most practical thing!"

Lu Fan said: "Then it's settled. Let's implement it according to the standard of 8,000 for the excellent award. Regarding this year's county-wide target responsibility assessment, I have two points to emphasize: First, fair, just, and open! In matters involving money, cadres will stare at it, and no group can have favoritism and fraud; second, each group is headed by county-level leaders. You guys will be group leaders. Zhikun and Qianyuan are responsible for assessing townships, and Tongyu and Yimeng are responsible for county-level units.

Comrades, this assessment must stop all kinds of crooked winds and evil spirits, run the sword of supervision through the whole process of before, during, and after, have zero tolerance for units and individuals who dare to commit crimes against the wind, and discover and seriously investigate and punish prominent problems one by one, truly realizing 'assessment under the sun,' and allowing cadres and masses to participate widely in supervision, forcing relevant departments to assess with integrity and evaluate fairly.

Assessment is just a means. The ultimate goal is to encourage the advanced to make persistent efforts and whip the backward to catch up. We must take the year-end assessment as an opportunity to vigorously promote the new atmosphere of integrity, responsibility, and integrity, test out good results, good style, and the spirit of Ganshui children to 'set an example and strive for the first' and the vigorous drive to strive for excellence.

This year's assessment is left to you few! The Organization Department should quickly come up with an assessment plan, pass the Standing Committee, and start the assessment procedure as soon as possible.

Okay, meeting adjourned, everyone go get busy, Qianyuan stay."

After others left, Lu Fan said: "Qianyuan, the city will adjust the leadership team of Yanshui County recently. Zhikun will likely go to Yanshui to take office. If the Deputy Secretary position is vacant, I will strongly recommend it to the Municipal Party Committee!"

The County Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary is restricted by the special nature of the work, and the upward channel is actually not wide. The County Party Committee Deputy Secretary and the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission Deputy Secretary are the two best paths.

Zhang Qianyuan said steadily: "Wherever the Secretary lets me go, I will go. No matter what post I am in, I will perform my duties and handle every task assigned by the Secretary well. Thank you, Secretary, for your strong promotion. I won't say much more; please watch my actions!"

Lu Fan nodded and said: "Hmm, this year-end assessment, you must not only manage your own group well, but also supervise the assessment of other groups. If anyone dares to engage in fraud, deal with it directly, kill one to warn a hundred!"

"Okay, Secretary, I know what to do!"

On the morning of January 29th, Ganshui County held a mobilization and deployment meeting for the 2017 annual target responsibility assessment work. County Party Committee Secretary Lu Fan attended the meeting and spoke, and County Party Committee Deputy Secretary Wang Zhikun presided over the meeting.

At the meeting, Organization Department Head Guo Tongyu gave a detailed explanation of the "Ganshui County 2017 Annual Target Responsibility Assessment Implementation Plan" and gave specific explanations on the assessment measures and task grouping.

In his speech, Lu Fan pointed out that target responsibility assessment is the "baton" for promoting the high-quality economic and social development of the whole county and is an effective way to measure and test the work of all departments. We must always insist on promoting reform through assessment, combine with existing problems, carefully inventory unfinished target tasks, and take effective measures to grasp implementation and promote rectification, truly applying assessment results to links such as selection, appointment, incentive, and restraint, ensuring that assessment work has a clear orientation, is clean and upright, and improves quality and efficiency.

Lu Fan emphasized that for any behavior that interferes with the assessment, we must insist on "zero tolerance" and "one-vote veto." If we discover one, we will investigate and punish one, and we will never be lenient! The "strictest assessment" should also be reflected in the full use of supervision means such as discipline inspection, supervision, and auditing, so that those who take shortcuts, run relationships, and find doors have no tricks to use!

In the afternoon, the County Assessment Office organized members of the assessment group to conduct special training on assessment business, further clarifying assessment procedures, assessment measures, assessment discipline, etc., using effective measures to ensure the smooth completion of the annual target responsibility assessment work.

Main responsible comrades of all townships, all departments of the County Party Committee, all county-level government units, all people's organizations, and all vertical management units stationed in the county attended the meeting.

Originally, everyone thought this year's assessment would be like previous years, just going through the motions, and then waiting for the holiday to celebrate the New Year. But the County Party Committee suddenly released news that units with excellent and good categories this year would have bonuses!

Can Ganshui afford such a rich battle? Is this okay? That's 8,000 yuan, a full two months' salary!

Therefore, all units attached great importance to it and worked hard to improve all work.

The County Party Committee Deputy Secretary was responsible for the First Assessment Group and arrived at Gaopo Town for the first stop.

Because Town Party Committee Secretary Peng Cheng had a small operation, the assessment work was responsible by Town Chief Zhao Zhengjun.

Under pressure from the cadres, Zhao Zhengjun wanted to strive for excellence, so he privately found group leader Wang Zhikun and, according to the "past practice," wanted to "filially respect" an "envelope."

Wang Zhikun was overjoyed. It was really a pillow when he was sleepy. He was worried about not having a chance to perform in front of the Secretary! And he knew that this Zhao Zhengjun was a die-hard loyalist of former County Chief Wang Baoguo, rushing to "send his head." If he didn't handle him, who would he handle?

So, people without a "background" are pathetic!

Wang Zhikun patted the table angrily and scolded loudly. Then, without saying a word, he summoned the County Discipline Inspection Commission and caught Zhao Zhengjun as a "negative example"!

This matter caused a huge sensation in the county, making many unit leaders sigh, and they had some views on Wang Zhikun.

But would Wang Zhikun care about these? He was considering how to help Secretary Lu rectify discipline and style. Anyway, he would leave in a while, so fame or whatever didn't matter. Secretary Lu's satisfaction was the top priority!

Soon, the handling results of the County Party Committee and County Discipline Inspection Commission came out: Gaopo Town Chief Zhao Zhengjun was suspended for reflection!

County Party Committee Secretary Lu Fan gave instructions: Resolutely prevent unhealthy tendencies in the assessment, strictly prohibit "running, sending, and contacting feelings" during the assessment process, and even engaging in interest collusion. Insist on being objective, fair, and truly assessing. For prominent problems, discover one, seriously investigate and punish one, never be lenient, and report and expose typical problems.

On February 2nd, the county-wide target responsibility assessment ended and entered the summary stage. The Organization Department was brightly lit and working overtime.

On February 4th, the evaluation results were released. Lu Fan did not make any greetings, and the assessment results were fair and just.

Township group: Shiwan Town and Laoshan Town obtained the excellent category; Dao Town and Nangou Town obtained the good category.

County-level departments: County Party Committee Office, Organization Department, Discipline Inspection Commission, Education Bureau, Health Bureau, Industry and Commerce Bureau, Tourism Bureau, Petition Bureau, and Agriculture Bureau obtained the excellent category; Urban Management Bureau, Compilation Office, Water Conservancy Bureau, Forestry Bureau, Economic Development Bureau, Personnel Bureau, and Safety Supervision Bureau obtained the good category.

The day after the document was issued, the county finance department issued bonuses to each unit according to Lu Fan's instructions, allowing comrades to have a fat New Year!

On February 5th, Ganshui County became an ocean of joy. Most cadres received bonuses with full joy, their faces filled with happy smiles. This was the first time in Ganshui's history that bonuses were issued.

Everyone saw the gratifying changes in Ganshui and naturally praised Secretary Lu!

Some are happy and some are sad. Units with average and poor evaluation categories were naturally discouraged, and leaders also felt that they had no face and could not face the cadres. They could only reorganize their drums and drums this year to strive for excellence.

On the morning of February 7th, the County Party Committee and County Government held the 2017 annual summary and commendation meeting, which was considered the previous "group worship meeting." All county-level leaders attended, and heads of all townships and departments participated.

In his speech, County Party Committee Secretary Lu Fan pointed out that in the past year, all levels and levels of the whole county overcame difficulties and worked responsibly, writing shining chapters of high-quality development.

The new year must have a new positioning. We must always maintain the work pursuit of striving for the first, take the initiative to create conditions, strive for more projects from above to squeeze into the national, provincial, and municipal planning "plates," and strive to transform potential opportunities and favorable factors into real productivity.

The new year must have new actions. Take industrial projects as a key grasp, focus on developing organic agriculture, petroleum industry, ecological tourism, and other industries. Take people's livelihood and happiness as the basic follow, comprehensively improve the level of public services such as culture, education, medical care, and elderly care, and strive to make the masses' sense of gain, happiness, and security more full, more guaranteed, and more sustainable.

Lu Fan emphasized that the new year must have a new look. The whole county must always promote the pragmatic and responsible work style, enhance the sense of responsibility of "success does not have to be in me, but success must have me," and consciously find accurate positioning and actively act in the overall development situation of the whole county. The leaders of the four sets of county teams and the "top leaders" of all sectors and departments must take the lead, set an example, and take the lead in implementing the various decision-making deployments of the County Party Committee and County Government. We must strictly supervise and assess without slackening, use the "ruler" of evaluation and assessment well, and let cadres use more energy on doing practical things and grasping implementation.

Finally, Lu Fan encouraged everyone to draw a blueprint to the end, fight to the end with responsibility, and work to the end with truth-seeking, with a more excited style, roll up their sleeves and work hard, and jointly create a better tomorrow for Ganshui!
