Chapter 96: Gao Yuanfei's Attitude

The drinking party lasted for two hours in a harmonious and enthusiastic atmosphere. A box of "Moutai" hit the bottom. Han Guishan felt it was about time and suggested ending the party.

After leaving the restaurant, Lu Fan was responsible for sending the leaders home. Han Guishan said: "My home is not far away. Walking after a meal can make you live to ninety-nine! Secretary Yuanfei, shall we take a walk?"

Others heard this and immediately understood, saying goodbye one after another.

Walking under the city wall, Han Guishan sighed: "Walking in the ancient alleys and riding on the city wall, it is like a silent history book, experiencing the vicissitudes of time, carrying so many city stories, and witnessing so many joys and sorrows!"

"Yes, walking here, you can feel the flow of time and the change of years, proving the greatness of this city! Secretary-General, after the change of term, Governor Yixing will be promoted, right?"

"I dare not speak rashly about this. Things above are too subtle!"

"You should also move, right? Several versions have already come out."

Han Guishan laughed: "I don't even know myself, and no one has talked to me. What are the rumors?"

"The Provincial Party Committee also pays attention to public opinion when using people. Some say you are going to the Provincial Development and Reform Commission, some say to the Finance Department, and others say you are going back to Yingjiang to serve as Mayor. In the past two years, there has been a voice saying that local people serving as mayors is conducive to urban development and improving people's livelihood."

"You dare to think more than I do. Let's work honestly, be prepared at all times, obey work needs, and listen to organizational arrangements!"

Han Guishan had been leading the exchange between the two. After walking for a while, he said: "Yuanfei, I want to trouble you with something."

"Secretary-General, please instruct!"

"It's about Lu Fan. In two years, I want him to be trained in provincial-level organs. Now, when the organization selects and appoints cadres, it attaches more and more importance to frontline experience. Only cadres who have worked on the grassroots frontline can truly understand the grassroots situation, understand the real demands of the common people, and build an emotional bond with the people from the bottom of their hearts. Lu Fan lacks this now, especially the resume of a township head. That Baishu Bay Forest Farm doesn't count."

Listening to the sound of gongs and drums, listening to the sound of words, Han Guishan seemed to be discussing with him, but in his words, it seemed that the matter was already a foregone conclusion. It can be seen that his attitude and determination to handle this matter were not easy to refuse!

Gao Yuanfei's brain worked at high speed. After a little consideration, he said: "The Secretary-General is right. The grassroots is the foothold of all work and a training ground for cadres. Only cadres who have been deeply rooted in the grassroots frontline for a long time are more likely to have great potential in their future careers. Lu Fan has a flexible mind, is steady and stable, and it is time for him to go to the grassroots to be trained!"

"Yuanfei, I know Lu Fan's age will put pressure on you in using people. If it is too difficult, you don't have to be embarrassed. If it really doesn't work, I will transfer him back and let him go down in a few years."

Gao Yuanfei immediately expressed his position: "Secretary-General, leave this matter to me! As the saying goes, ambition does not depend on age, and those without ambition live in vain for a hundred years. Selecting and using cadres based on seniority and age makes some politically firm, daring, and promising excellent young cadres stand still and stand aside.

The spirit of the Central Committee is that for excellent young cadres with potential for cultivation, we must break the deep-rooted concept of seniority and use them boldly without sticking to one pattern. The County Party Committee must support those who are responsible, eliminate the worries of excellent young cadres who want to do things, dare to do things, and can do things, let them go into battle lightly, and create a good atmosphere for boldly using excellent young cadres.

There is a saying: if there are conditions, go; if there are no conditions, create conditions and go!"

Han Guishan laughed: "I have long heard that Secretary Yuanfei has great courage, and it is true. Then I will wait for the good news! Tomorrow afternoon, Governor Yixing's golf time is unshakable. Let's go and be caddies together!"

Gao Yuanfei was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "Thank you, Secretary-General, for bridging the gap. What preparations do I need to make?"

"Don't do anything, just come. I'll arrange it."

The next day, while having breakfast, Gao Yuanfei said to Lu Fan: "There is nothing to do today. I'm going to sit with some Party School classmates. You can move freely!"

"Okay, Secretary. If you have any instructions, call me at any time. I'll just walk around the city."

Gao Yuanfei suddenly said: "Xiao Fan, over the past year, I have been very satisfied with your work, and you have made great progress. Continuing to be in the position of secretary is not conducive to all-round improvement. Are you interested in going to a township to make a splash?"

Although he had expected it, Lu Fan was still surprised and said: "Secretary, is it because I made a mistake in my work?"

"Don't think wildly. A leading cadre who wants to grow in an all-round way must experience training in multiple positions. Townships are the forefront of serving the masses. Grassroots work contains a rich treasure trove of knowledge. You are now in the golden period of doing business and the critical period of growing skills. You must place yourself among the masses, take root downwards, and absorb nutrients to continuously strengthen your muscles and bones and increase your skills.

Those who know the roof leaks are under the eaves, and those who know the government's mistakes are in the grass fields. Townships are the places closest to the people, and they are the best teachers for young cadres to grow and progress. Sitting in the office, you only encounter problems; going deep into the grassroots, you see all the solutions.

Grassroots work is complex and involves a wide range, high requirements, and a complex system. There are 'big things' such as party building, poverty alleviation, land acquisition and demolition, and 'small things' such as visiting the masses, household investigation, and creating culture and health. It is the best 'training ground'.

Working in the grassroots is the only way for young cadres to grow. I hope you can be down-to-earth, dare to take responsibility, and devote yourself to the grassroots frontline!"

Lu Fan was no longer shy and said firmly: "Secretary, no matter what position I am in, I will definitely not let you down!"

"Hmm, don't spread this matter, so as not to cause extra complications. After all, your age is a disadvantage, so we must make a quick decision!"

"Thank you, Secretary, for your cultivation. I will never forget your kindness in promoting me!"

After Gao Yuanfei left, Lu Fan returned to his room and was secretly excited for a while. Remembering that several high school classmates were signing up in Chang'an, he called them to the hotel to chat.

Half an hour later, Zhu Jianglin, Wang Meng'en, Huang Xiaoyu, and Deng Junchi rushed over. As soon as they entered the door, they shouted that leaders are indeed different and corrupt enough. The four of them squeezed into a standard room, and it was the 120-yuan kind!

Lu Fan laughed: "No way, on official business, this is the standard, this is the grade! If you are envious, strive to win the championship in this exam!"

Huang Xiaoyu said confidently: "I have prepared for three years. Why should I lose to those who fall in love and muddle through? Besides, my major has an advantage, and the admission rate is high. I don't think it's a big problem."

Zhu Jianglin said: "The roc rises with the wind, soaring ninety thousand miles! Brother Fan, just wait for my good news. We have all been preparing for the exam since our sophomore year. We have suffered a lot, put in a lot of effort, and suffered a lot. Now the exam is fairer. As long as the written test score is high enough, it's not a big problem."

Wang Meng'en said with some worry: "I'm not worried about the written test, but I heard that there are tricks in the interview."

Lu Fan said: "From ancient times to the present, from abroad to abroad, as long as there are people, this world only has relative fairness, not absolute fairness. From birth, everyone is in various unfair situations. There is nothing fair in this world. But taking the civil service exam, especially the national exam and the provincial exam, I think it is close to fair. It is as difficult as ascending to heaven to cheat. Most families don't have the ability to cheat, and families that really have the ability won't cheat. They have plenty of ways, just arrange to enter a state-owned enterprise, and then transfer from enterprise to institution, and then to civil servant. Isn't that fragrant? Why take this risk? As long as you play normally, one point of cultivation, one point of harvest, I have absolute confidence in you! Junchi, what position did you sign up for?"

"Brother Fan, I signed up for the Organization Department of the Yingjiang Municipal Party Committee."

"This kind of popular unit has great competition, strive to get a high score!"

"I've already signed up, I can only leave it to fate!"

Zhu Jianglin suddenly said: "I ran into Wang Haibin that day, and he said he signed up for the General Office of the Provincial Government. This grandson is really confident!"

Lu Fan laughed: "We are all classmates, the past is past, we have already shaken hands and made peace."

Wang Meng'en shouted: "Brother Fan, when will we eat your and Liqiong's wedding candies? You took down the class flower without a sound, keeping us all in the dark!"

"You were the ones who matched us, right? But I do plan to get married, probably in the first lunar month of next year!"

Huang Xiaoyu said enviously: "Brother Fan is a double harvest of career and love, while we are still worrying about work. This world is too unfair. It was hard to chase a girl in college, but she ran away with someone else when we graduated, just because we are poor boys!"

Lu Fan said: "The top priority is for you to implement your work, and then take it step by step, and live clearly. This society is like this. If you don't work hard, don't blame the world for being cruel. A great man only worries about having no fame, why worry about having no wife!"

Chatting and chatting, it was noon. Lu Fan treated his classmates to a delicious meal in the hotel restaurant. Anyway, it was all on the account.

Every time he went out with the Secretary, Lu Fan would advance cash from the accountant. When reporting the reimbursement slips, the Director of the County Party Committee Office, Guo Tongyu, never reviewed any invoice, and all were reimbursed as reported, but Lu Fan never used this to line his own pockets.

I heard that in the government office, travel expenses and everything dared to be charged, and it was blatant. Even foot massage expenses dared to be reimbursed. And those drivers, relying on travel expenses and maintenance expenses, ate with oily mouths, and bought houses one after another.

Fraud, false reporting, extravagance, waste, greed for enjoyment... Sometimes people in the system feel heartache watching it. It is said that they can eat 10 Peking Universities a year. It really needs to be managed!

Lu Fan's door was always open. At ten o'clock in the evening, Gao Yuanfei came back staggering. Lu Fan hurriedly went over to serve him and said: "Secretary, make a call, and I will pick you up."

Gao Yuanfei was in a particularly good mood and laughed: "Drinking this little wine, where is it? Thinking back then, when I was the Director of the Reception Office, I drank up to two catties of white wine, and nothing happened. Xiao Fan, your drinking capacity still needs to be practiced. When you get to the township, drinking is work. You have to be able to kick and fight, otherwise you won't be able to hold down those old oil slicks."

"Secretary, no matter where I go, I can't do without your support!"

"Don't worry, you are my secretary, I will naturally support you!"
