Chapter 89: Guo Wei's grand plan

~13 min read 2,437 words

The welcome banquet was grand but not luxurious. Old Wang pointed to the few women who came to help like a battlefield commander. Jinling was also called to help, busy placing bowls and chopsticks. Zhao Yu'er followed at her feet, as cute as a ball of fluff.

The canteen had already installed electric lights and wires, just waiting for the current to be sent, and it could shine brightly. The time for power transmission was chosen on the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, the day of sending off the Kitchen God. Now the thing that illuminates our world is a gas lamp, a kind of coal gas lamp.

Rural cadres didn't have too much courtesy, swarmed into the canteen, each looking for people they knew to sit together, leaving a table in the middle.

Guo Wei sat at the table in the middle with Huang Qishan, Zhu Shizhen, me, and several party committee members such as the director of the women's federation. Looking at the bustling room, a cold smile that was not easily detected bloomed on Guo Wei's always smiling face.

No one paid too much attention to Guo Wei coming to Suxi Township to be the secretary, only me, feeling very abrupt.

After he finished his studies at the party school, seeing that everyone was promoted, even Huang Qishan got the position of Chunshan County Youth League Committee Secretary, which made him very unconvinced. Among the people who studied at the party school, although his education was not higher than others, the school he graduated from made many people who graduated from second-rate and third-rate universities jealous. He was a person who had been smoked for four years in the school under the feet of the emperor, and he was somewhat stained with imperial spirit, but the reality was that they were all proud, only he was squatting in the Municipal Policy Research Office to mix days.

The Municipal Policy Research Office looks like an idle organization without power or influence on the surface. In the eyes of others, it is a place for retirement. Guo Wei knows the official path well, so he naturally knows that this department is actually the think tank of the municipal party committee, to put it bluntly, it is the brain of the municipal party committee leaders. The main work of the policy research office is to deeply understand the policies and mentality of higher-level leading organs, combine local conditions, and formulate reasonable management strategies. Guessing people's thoughts is Guo Wei's strength. During his four years in college, he spent two years studying the art of governing people.

Guo Wei doesn't want to be a think tank, he needs others to be his think tank.

It happened that Minister Huang Shan came to the policy research office to visit everyone. The Hengyue Municipal Party Committee has an unwritten rule that standing committee-level leaders must spend one day a month visiting and comforting the institutions directly under the municipal party committee.

Huang Shan has been worried about the adjustment of cadres during this period. Seeing that the term is about to change, a batch of people who have reached the age are about to retire, and a batch of people who meet the conditions are about to be promoted. The political stage needs to change roles from time to time to give others amazement and give oneself flexibility.

A group of people reached the age, and only a dozen positions were vacated. However, there were hundreds of eyes staring at the dozen positions like tigers and wolves. He felt like he was holding a bowl of water all the time, the water in the bowl could not be splashed out, and the water outside the bowl could not be added.

Secretary Chen of the municipal party committee clearly stated that according to the organizational division of labor, the organization department has the autonomy to adjust cadres. But everyone knows that Secretary Chen is the big boss who holds the spoon. Who this ladle of food is poured into whose bowl is not said by the person responsible for serving food, the opinion of the big boss who holds the spoon is the most fundamental thing. Cadre appointment and removal, without Secretary Chen's statement and approval power, no one can make the decision, especially the candidates for some important departments, such as the director of the finance bureau and the secretary-general of the municipal party committee.

On this day, it happened to be the turn of Minister Huang Shan to go down to the organ. Early in the morning, he took the director of the office down to the Municipal Policy Research Office.

Huang Shan knew Guo Wei. His daughter had mentioned this young man before, knowing that he was the leader of the social education work group and had been engaged in social education in Chunshan County with Weiwei for two years. When chatting with his daughter, he kept an eye on it, knowing that Guo Wei was chasing his daughter, so he once asked Weiwei if Guo Wei knew he was the minister of the municipal party committee organization department?

Weiwei neither denied nor affirmed.

It wasn't until Chunshan County wanted to send a youth league committee secretary that he didn't hear his daughter mention this person. Just when he was hesitant, Huang Qishan, who was also in the social education work group, appeared in front of him. How could he not know Young Master Huang? Municipal Personnel Bureau Deputy Director Huang Yiming's son.

The two most important people in Huang Shan's life are his wife Chen Yazhi in the previous life, and his daughter Huang Weiwei in the next life.

The municipal party committee sent down a social education work group. People who didn't know the truth thought it was a new round of distribution. He is a person who holds the lifeline of the officialdom, knows the routine, so he said high-sounding reasons and sent his daughter to the county to engage in social education. After the social education ended, she entered the party school for study, and then came out, he could feel at ease to arrange his daughter to the position of Chunshan County Youth League Committee Secretary.

Chunshan County is the place where he, Minister Huang Shan, started. Until now, there are a large number of subordinates in key positions. His daughter went, which is no different from a princess going to the folk.

Who knows that his daughter didn't appreciate his kindness at all and firmly refused to go. This broke his plan. Huang Shan originally planned to arrange for his daughter to gain experience in Chunshan County for a few years, then transfer to the municipal youth league committee, then logically transfer to a county to be a county head, and then return to the city. According to his current state, arranging for his daughter to finally be the director of a certain bureau in the city, he should retire.

However, things went against his wishes, which was also from this incident that he saw that his daughter was not keen on politics at all, so he felt discouraged, thinking that after he retired, no one would inherit his career, and he felt annoyed.

His daughter recommended Huang Qishan to be the Chunshan County Youth League Committee Secretary, and he didn't feel surprised at all. After all, Huang Qishan's father, Huang Yiming, is the deputy director of the municipal personnel bureau, ranking first. Many business relationships between the personnel bureau and the organization department are inseparable, and the two old men are not strangers at all.

Huang Yiming took the initiative to make an appointment with him to go to a private place to drink tea. During the conversation, he learned that the two children were in love. Old Huang and he became in-laws, which is not climbing high. There is even a bit of matching family status, thinking in his heart, his daughter doesn't want to have achievements in officialdom, and if his son-in-law can make progress, it is not in vain that he has been a cadre for half a lifetime.

So after a series of actions, he pushed Huang Qishan to the position of Chunshan County Youth League Committee Secretary.

When Minister Huang Shan arrived at the policy research office, only Guo Wei was working in the research office. Few people sit in this office. Usually, they all hang the signboard of investigation and research outside, and few people go to work on time.

Huang Minister has a special good feeling for people who go to work on time. He believes that people who can't even go to work normally, their work attitude and efficiency can be imagined.

Guo Wei saw Minister Huang coming to inspect, jumped up from his chair in shock, and hurriedly looked for a cup to pour water.

Minister Huang didn't sit down, stood and talked to Guo Wei for a few words, and understood his work status and requirements.

Guo Wei pointed to an investigation report spread on the table and reported: "Minister Huang, Hengyue City is the second largest city in Central Province. The city develops fast, but Hengyue City has gradually changed from the original industrial city back to an agricultural city since the 1980s. From the current state, it is very difficult to gradually restore Hengyue City's status from industry in the short term. It is better to start from agriculture. Without industry, it is not rich, and without agriculture, it is not stable. When everyone is grabbing the bowl of industry, Hengyue City should find another way, start from agriculture, and start from the most remote rural areas, change the face of rural areas, and industry will naturally follow."

Minister Huang's heart moved. The young man in front of him has unique insights into problems, which is obviously different from other young cadres. Industry is an industry that seeks quick success and instant benefits, and agriculture is the lifeline of China for thousands of years. Everyone grabs industrial projects in a swarm, ignoring agricultural construction, and in the end, it is fresh body and hungry belly.

He nodded with interest, hinting for him to continue.

Guo Wei felt that the effect was received, so he reported in detail the materials he had sorted out during this time, from the geographical advantages of Hengyue City, population structure, to industrial layout, etc., speaking clearly.

At that time, he had the intention to send this young man to the countryside. If this person is used well, he will be a chess piece that decides the outcome in the future. If he is not used well, he will waste a talent.

It happened that Suxi Township in Chunshan County lacked a township party committee secretary. Logically speaking, a township party committee secretary is arranged directly by the county party committee, and does not need the municipal party committee organization department to come forward. It happened that for such an inconspicuous position of township party committee secretary, Guan Peishan, the secretary of Chunshan County, and Liu Qimeng, the county head, both came to find him, but the candidates proposed by the two were not the same person, which he found strange. After reporting his thoughts to Secretary Chen, Secretary Chen pointed to the table with a pen and said: "Suxi Township is a registered township in the province, what do you say?"

Cadre deployment assessment is the business of the organization department. Secretary Chen stated that it was inconvenient to ask, so he threw the problem back to him. Meeting Guo Wei, the problem that was blocked in his heart suddenly opened, so he tentatively asked: "Xiao Guo, what do you think of grassroots work?"

Guo Wei immediately expressed his position: "Grassroots is the place that exercises people the most. If the organization needs me, I will firmly obey the organization's decision."

Less than a week after Guo Wei expressed his position, Huang Shan personally went to Chunshan County. When eating at noon, he said to Guan Peishan and Liu Qimeng: "The municipal party committee sent you a helper. You are acquaintances, good cooperation."

Guan Peishan and Liu Qimeng were confused and didn't understand Minister Huang's meaning. Another week later, Guo Wei took the letter from the organization department and was accompanied by the cadre section chief of the municipal party committee organization department to Chunshan to report, which completely stunned Guan Peishan and Liu Qimeng.

The dishes were served, and the wine was poured. Guo Wei raised his glass and said: "Thank you, everyone. From today on, I, Guo Wei, am a member of Suxi Township. From now on, we will work together, take the instructions of the county party committee and county government as the center, take the decision of the Suxi Township party committee as the guide, change the face of Suxi Township at the fastest speed, and give the common people a satisfactory answer."

"Drink." He took the lead and drank it all.

The canteen suddenly became lively, and everyone took turns to toast Guo Wei. Guo Wei didn't refuse anyone, which made me tremble with fear. I didn't expect Guo Wei to have such a sea capacity. For people who are officials, the smaller the official, the greater the alcohol capacity. Officials who don't drink are big officials!

One wave passed, but Guo Wei still couldn't hold on and started to stutter a little.

He raised his wine glass and said to me and Huang Qishan: "Secretary Huang, Committee Member Chen, we are brothers, brothers who rolled out of the same trench. From now on, please support my brother."

Both I and Huang Qishan nodded kindly. Guo Wei is at the time of being proud of the spring breeze. What's more, we are all people from the social education work group. Now, the social education work is over, our friendship cannot end, and our cooperation and tacit care cannot end.

"I tell you, I have an idea. The current position of Suxi Township does not meet the needs of development. I want to move the township government's place..."

"Move?" Both I and Huang Qishan said in unison.

"Yes! Move."

"How to move?"

"Not in a hurry."

Guo Wei smiled inscrutably.

Zhu Shizhen, who had been listening to our conversation, intervened and said: "Secretary Guo, where do you want to move to?"

Guo Wei ignored Zhu Shizhen's question, picked up a piece of wild boar meat with chopsticks, and sighed ambitiously: "First, we must have money. Only with money can we do things, do big things!" ===== CHAPTER 90 =====
