Chapter 633: A Special Promotion Channel!

Guo Zhengting and Du Chengfeng chatted about the issues regarding the Tianling County leadership team.

Guo Zhengting had obtained a promise from Du Chengfeng today, and he looked to be in a very good mood when he left.

From Guo Zhengting's mood, Tang Ye guessed that Du Chengfeng had decided to recommend him.

He walked Guo Zhengting all the way to the sedan.

Before climbing into the car, Guo Zhengting suddenly stopped, reached out his hand, and said, "Thank you."

Tang Ye shook his hand: "Don't mention it. I will still need to rely on County Magistrate Guo for many things in the future."

Guo Zhengting said readily: "If you need anything in the future, just say the word!"

After the sedan drove off, Guo Zhengting felt a complex mix of emotions.

Having a son-in-law like Tang Ye really was like adding wings to a tiger for Du Chengfeng.

It had been less than a year, and Tang Ye had already firmly established his footing in Suiyuan.

Nowadays, Han Guangyao was frequently praised in the city, but Guo Zhengting actually knew clearly that it was all political achievement brought to him by Tang Ye.

If only he had such a good helper himself, that would be great.

However, Guo Zhengting knew Tang Ye's potential.

Don't look at how his rank is still lower than his own right now; in another ten years, it would be hard to say.

Guo Zhengting was determined to maintain a good relationship with Tang Ye, as it was possible that Tang Ye could give him a hand in the future.

Because judging from the trend of the state cultivating cadres, there was a particular emphasis on the rejuvenation of cadres.

Tang Ye not only had a high level of education but also rich grassroots experience, and his IQ, EQ, and political acumen were all higher than the average person.

As long as there were no accidents, he would certainly have excellent development.

……

As the sedan disappeared from view, Tang Ye walked into the house and went to the study.

Du Chengfeng said softly: "Secretary Zhou attaches great importance to the case of Shen Mingcheng. I didn't expect him to make such a big joke; it's hard to believe. You must take this as a warning!"

Tang Ye said: "Dad, please rest assured, I know where the bottom line is."

Du Chengfeng said softly again: "The position of County Party Secretary of Tianling County is vacant, and there will be major adjustments coming up. What are your thoughts?"

Tang Ye said: "Guo Zhengting is still quite good; he has a certain level of prestige in Tianling County. If it were changed to someone else, they would still need an adjustment period."

Du Chengfeng nodded slightly: "Your judgment is consistent with mine."

Tang Ye suddenly lowered his voice and cautiously probed: "Dad, I have an idea regarding the candidate for County Magistrate."

Du Chengfeng looked at Tang Ye with surprise: "Let's hear it."

Tang Ye's gaze met Du Chengfeng's briefly, and he said sincerely: "After more than a year of tempering, Comrade Cheng Lin has made significant progress in government work. She previously served as the head of the County Party Committee Organization Department in Tianling County and is very familiar with Tianling. If she returns to Tianling, she would certainly be able to integrate into the role very quickly."

A flash of surprise appeared in Du Chengfeng's eyes; he knew that Tang Ye and Cheng Lin had a close relationship.

Now that Tang Ye was pushing the boat along with the current to help Cheng Lin fight for an opportunity, it was within reason.

Cheng Lin's promotion path over the past two years had been very clear: from the Municipal Bureau of Veteran Cadres to the County Party Committee Organization Department, then promoted to Deputy County Party Secretary, and now taking a step further to become County Magistrate—it was a natural progression.

Although the duration was short, in terms of organizational procedures, it was one step at a time and reasonable.

"Your idea is quite good. However, the Suiyuan team must also be guaranteed stability. If Cheng Lin leaves, the Suiyuan team will also need adjustments," Du Chengfeng said thoughtfully. "Mayor Jiang spoke to me a while ago about the spirit of the conference on cross-provincial exchange of young cadres. This is a good opportunity for you. How have you considered it?"

Judging from Du Chengfeng's attitude, he also suggested that Tang Ye seize this opportunity.

Cross-provincial exchange might seem like going to a new place to "level up" again, but in reality, it was also an opportunity to prove one's own strength.

Once outstanding results were achieved, there would be a very high evaluation on one's resume at the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department in the future.

Tang Ye had already gained recognition in Hanzhou, but he still needed to further prove himself at the provincial level.

Tang Ye smiled: "I haven't discussed it with Du Xi yet."

Du Chengfeng encouraged Tang Ye: "A good man should have aspirations in all four directions. I believe Du Xi will understand!"

Having received Du Chengfeng's support, Tang Ye pondered that he would have more confidence when talking to Du Xi about this matter.

If he continued to stay in Suiyuan, although work would be smooth sailing, everything had already entered the right track, and it would be truly difficult to achieve breakthrough results in the short term.

Although there were quite a few positions opening up in Hanzhou, Tang Ye had adjusted his post frequently within a year.

This was already the limit of organizational personnel operations.

If a position of Party Committee Deputy Secretary of a county were arranged for Tang Ye now, it would be indirectly roasting him on a fire.

To be promoted, one needed to seek another special promotion channel!

Being able to seize the opportunity with the help of provincial policies offered hope of breaking through the shackles of promotion early.

The path of an official career had many similarities with cultivation novels.

Every improvement in level required tempering to break through a bottleneck.

The protagonists in cultivation novels relied on raiding dungeons to level up, and those on the official path were the same; they had to constantly take on tasks, open up new fields, and create political achievements to untie their shackles step by step.

If one chose to lie flat, they were destined to be surpassed by others.

The official path was even more cruel than cultivation, because those who could reach the pinnacle of power were, after all, few and far between.

……

Returning to Xiyue Garden in the evening, Tang Ye was exceptionally energetic and devoted during their intimacy.

Du Xi noticed his abnormality and asked: "Hubby, why do you feel different today? Did you do something you feel guilty about?"

Tang Ye rested his head on his fist, looking up at Du Xi, and said softly: "Dad and Mayor Jiang came to see me these past few days. They want me to participate in the cross-provincial young cadre exchange."

Du Xi reacted immediately: "Which province is it?"

Tang Ye replied: "Shaan Province."

A trace of reluctance flashed in Du Xi's eyes, but she quickly hid it and said earnestly: "Hubby, I definitely support you! This kind of opportunity is too rare; it's equivalent to entering the directional training program of the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department, which is very beneficial for your future development. Don't worry, I will take good care of myself, and I will also take good care of your parents and my parents."

Tang Ye knew that Du Xi had always been sensible, but he didn't expect her to be so straightforward about this matter without the slightest hesitation, and a wave of emotion surged in his heart: "Cross-provincial exchange means we won't be able to be together for a long time. I really hate to leave you."

Du Xi pinched Tang Ye's cheek and said with a smile: "Distance creates beauty, right? My only worry is whether you will be missed by others when you go to another place."

Tang Ye was caught between laughter and tears: "Can't you trust my character? When it comes to matters of relations between men and women, I have absolute confidence."

Du Xi's gaze suddenly turned tender: "Husband, I will firmly support you in participating in the inter-provincial exchange. Marriage should be a harbor for you to rest when you are weary, not a besieged city that hinders your progress."

Tang Ye was deeply moved by Du Xi's understanding: "I had prepared a belly full of reasons, but I didn't expect I wouldn't need them at all."

"You will be gone for at least a year or two. Before you leave, you must give me a result," Du Xi said with a complex tone.

"I've thought it through; let's find a time to go get a check-up," Tang Ye said with a hint of reluctance at the corners of his mouth, "Sometimes, one still has to believe in science."

"Actually, I had already inquired about it, I just didn't know how to bring it up to you," Du Xi said in a relaxed tone.

"Then let's go get a check-up before the new year."

Tang Ye gritted his teeth, steeled his heart, and made a decision that was not easy.
