Chapter 1284

On January 5th, Su Xinghui had just finished the New Year holiday. After spending a few days at home with his parents and Lu Xiaoya, he went directly to the Municipal Party Committee, preparing to go to Changshan County to take up his post.

His parents and Lu Xiaoya all wanted to send him to Changshan, but Su Xinghui politely declined. Su Xinghui said that he was a grown man and was going to Changshan County to work; what would it look like to have so many people send him off? Thus, his parents and Lu Xiaoya could only let him go alone.

In fact, Yu Ruizhi and the others also planned to drive him there, but Su Xinghui was a cadre being rotated this time, and he had to report to the Municipal Party Committee first before going to Changshan County, so he didn't accept their kindness.

He said he would get settled in Changshan County first, see the situation there, and once he was settled, he would let Yu Ruizhi and the others come over to visit. Yu Ruizhi and the others could only agree.

Su Xinghui arrived at the Municipal Party Committee and first reported to the Organization Department. Zheng Guodong, the Minister of the Municipal Organization Department, personally received him. He personally poured a cup of tea for Su Xinghui. When he handed the tea to Su Xinghui, Su Xinghui stood up and took the cup, saying, "Minister Zheng, you personally pouring tea—I can't afford such an honor."

Zheng Guodong smiled, "Little Su, do you know that among the cadres coming to Yulin City for rotation this time, you are the first to report? Just for this, I must toast you with a cup of tea."

Most of the cadres coming to Yulin City for rotation this time were going to several mountainous counties. The city gave them half a month to report, and these cadres naturally wouldn't be that proactive; they were eager to stay at home for a few more days.

Changshan County was the county with the highest altitude, the worst conditions, and the most backward economy. There were a total of five cadres rotated to Changshan County this time, and there were over thirty rotated cadres in the entire city, yet only Su Xinghui came to the Municipal Organization Department to report.

Su Xinghui smiled, "Minister Zheng, staying at home is just staying at home; it's better to go to Changshan County early to familiarize myself with the situation."

Zheng Guodong shook his head, "If all the rotated cadres in this batch had your awareness, that would be great. Then this cadre rotation would truly play a significant role."

Su Xinghui just smiled, picked up the teacup, drank the tea, and didn't speak.

Zheng Guodong said, "Little Su, I will have someone handle the procedures for you and then send you to Changshan County. You should go see Secretary Shi now; he said that if you came, you should go see him."

Su Xinghui nodded, stood up, said "Sorry to trouble you, Minister Zheng," and went to Shi Deyou's office.

When Shi Deyou's secretary saw Su Xinghui arrive, he took him directly into Shi Deyou's office. Shi Deyou was reading documents. Seeing Su Xinghui enter, he looked up, took off his reading glasses, and smiled at Su Xinghui, "Little Su is here, sit."

Shi Deyou's secretary helped Su Xinghui pour tea and then went out, closing the door.

Shi Deyou smiled, "Little Su, didn't we give you half a month to prepare at home? Why did you come so quickly?"

Su Xinghui said, "Secretary Shi, going to Changshan County early—isn't it better to familiarize myself with the situation early and enter my role to carry out work?"

Shi Deyou burst into laughter, "Good, good, good. With your drive, once you go to Changshan County, you will surely create miracles again."

Su Xinghui said, "I will strive not to let the organization's expectations of me down."

Shi Deyou put away his smile and said, "Little Su, to be honest, although your going to Changshan County this time wasn't my idea, I still have high expectations for you. Changshan County is the most backward county in our Yulin City economically; the GDP isn't even as good as your Pengjiawanzhen, and the commoners' lives are too bitter. I hope you can change the face of Changshan County as soon as possible."

Su Xinghui said, "Secretary Shi, you are overestimating me. I am not a county leader in Changshan County; how would I have the ability to change the face of Changshan County? If you gave me a Township Party Secretary position, it would be good enough if I could change the face of a township."

Shi Deyou laughed, "Little Su, are you complaining to me? Complaining that I didn't even give you a Deputy County-level position?"

Su Xinghui shook his head, "Secretary Shi, I wouldn't dare. At my age, being able to be a Township Party Secretary is already quite good. Being a Deputy County-level cadre at such a young age would put a lot of pressure on the city."

Shi Deyou said, "Little Su, I am very happy that you can understand us. How about this? As long as you achieve results in Changshan County, I will immediately resolve the Deputy County-level treatment for you."

Su Xinghui said, "Achieving results—what is the standard?"

Shi Deyou pondered for a moment and said, "The natural environment of Changshan County has similarities to Meng Meng Hu Ling Township. In your first year in Meng Meng Hu Ling Township, you doubled the GDP there, so let's use that as the standard."

Su Xinghui nodded, "Fine, it's a deal!"

Doubling the GDP seems like a very high standard, but in places like Meng Meng Hu Ling and Changshan, the GDP base is low. The absolute value to be increased is not high, and often introducing one large project is enough to double it.

Shi Deyou smiled and nodded, "It's a deal!"

Su Xinghui said, "Secretary Shi, thank you! Then I will go to Changshan County."

Shi Deyou nodded, "Then I wish you smooth sailing!"

Su Xinghui came out of Shi Deyou's office and went into Comrade Ji Tao's office. Since he was in the city, he naturally had to see Comrade Ji Tao.

When Comrade Ji Tao saw Su Xinghui arrive, he was also very enthusiastic and personally poured him a cup of tea, saying, "Xinghui, you are going to Changshan County today? Why not stay at home for a few more days? Didn't the city give you half a month?"

Su Xinghui said, "Going early allows me to enter my role early."

Comrade Ji Tao nodded, "That is indeed your style. I knew that you were going to Changshan County this time with the intention of achieving something."

Su Xinghui smiled, "I do want to achieve something, but I just don't know if I can."

Comrade Ji Tao said, "With your ability, I don't see any problem. However, since you came to see me today, I will tell you about some of the situation in Changshan County so you have an idea."

Su Xinghui said, "Then thank you, Minister Ji."

Comrade Ji Tao then began to tell Su Xinghui about the situation in Changshan County.

The Changshan County Party Secretary is named Xue Xingyuan, over fifty years old this year, and has been the County Party Secretary for several years. Comrade Ji Tao told Su Xinghui somewhat cryptically that Xue Xingyuan is a bit headstrong and self-opinionated, and he is very close to Mayor Ren Guisheng. Su Xinghui understood immediately that Comrade Ji Tao was reminding him to be careful of this Secretary Xue.

The Changshan County Magistrate, Ling Anguo, is a few years younger than Xue Xingyuan, also nearly fifty. He is actually a decent person, with a gentle personality and upright character, but he has no ideas or methods for developing the economy. Therefore, Changshan County has always been firmly at the bottom of the city's GDP rankings, and the gap with the districts and counties ahead of it is getting wider and wider.

Up to now, Changshan County's GDP is only around 500 million, not even as good as Pengjiawanzhen's GDP. It must be said that this has something to do with the leaders of Changshan County.
