Chapter 3 Chapter 3 In an instant

Jia Shizhen answered Minister Qian's call, still wondering what was going on.When Minister Qian was talking to him that day, he showed him the "Great Internal Reference", and now he suddenly said that the Central Research Team will come to Xiyu tomorrow, accompanied by Vice Minister Qin of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, to investigate the situation in Xiyu City some time ago. The reform of the cadre and personnel system shocked the whole province and even the whole country.For Jia Shizhen, the organization director of the Municipal Party Committee who is going to study in the United States, this is somewhat at a loss.Those conversations with Secretary Chang just now have already flown to the sky.Now, what Jia Shizhen thinks of is that Vice Minister Qin and the central investigation team will arrive tomorrow morning. He is not afraid of any problems in the investigation. What he has done since then has been a bit radical, and it has also violated the vested interests of some people. However, after all, his actions are a bit "reckless", and he seems a bit alone among so many ministers of organizations, large and small, across the country. fight!I don't know what the intention of the central research team to insert a pole into a city like Xiyu at this time!

At this moment, the phone rang. Jia Shizhen has a habit. If the phone rang suddenly when he was lost in thought, he would glance at the phone number. The moment he saw the number clearly, he had already picked up the phone receiver and said "Hello!" Before he could say anything, Secretary Chang's voice came from the phone: "Hello, Shizhen, the Provincial Party Committee Office called me just now..." For some reason, Chang Youlian stopped at this moment, when Jia Shizhen heard Secretary Chang coughed twice, and it took a long time before he said, "Tomorrow... tomorrow the central research team will come to Xiyu, let me and you carefully summarize the situation according to the requirements of the central research team before we leave. It can’t affect the research, and it can’t affect the learning of both of us.”

"I see, Secretary Chang." Jia Shizhen said, "Minister Qian also called me just now. Vice Minister Qin will accompany the Central Research Team to Xiyu tomorrow. I haven't had time to report to you yet!" "Well, Shizhen, let me communicate with Comrade Shao Ming here at the Municipal Committee, and you can make arrangements for the Organization Department of the Municipal Committee." Chang Youlian said again, "Does Minister Qian have any specific requirements, what to report, including their journey?" "No, Minister Qian said how to work in detail, and the research team will raise their requirements at that time. As for the specific itinerary, it is based on needs." Jia Shizhen said, "Minister Qian also emphasized that the arrival of the central research team cannot affect you and me. For the study, we have to report in a centralized manner at the specified time."

Putting down the phone, not only Jia Shizhen felt too sudden, but Chang Youlian on the other hand also sat in a chair for a long time and meditated. He didn't know whether it was an unintentional coincidence that the Central Research Team came to Xiyu at this time, or someone's special arrangement. . For such an important matter, no matter what one thinks in one's heart, as the secretary of the municipal party committee, Chang Youlian must proceed from the overall situation.So he immediately called Shao Ming, and Shao Ming hurried to Chang Youlian's office. But Jia Shizhen thought about it after putting down the phone, and felt that there was nothing to prepare. He even felt that he didn't need to give a long-winded special report.But such a big matter should be reported to several deputy ministers and middle-level cadres of the organization department.

When I was about to get off work in the afternoon, I suddenly received a call from Zhang Yaxin, Secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, saying that when they were hearing the matter of Qiao Baiming, the former county party secretary of Xiayu County, Hou Yongwen, the former township party secretary of Taohua Town, was involved.Jia Shizhen said: "Secretary Zhang, you don't need to talk to me about this issue, because Hou Yongwen is just a secretary of the township party committee and a department-level cadre. You can do whatever you want, not to mention that he has been transferred to the Provincial Department of Civil Affairs."

Zhang Yaxin said: "This person not only has a background, but was almost promoted to deputy county magistrate." Jia Shizhen said: "Secretary Zhang, it's up to your Disciplinary Committee whether or not to take the exam into account. Don't say that he was almost promoted to deputy county magistrate, but he was promoted to be deputy county magistrate. What should we do?" Of course, Jia Shizhen heard Zhang Yaxin's implication. He knew that Zhang Yaxin was not unqualified, nor was it because of Hou Yongwen's background, but he told him in this way that Hou Yongwen's transfer was a bit too strange. For the deputy director.Of course, Jia Shizhen had more opinions on Hou Yongwen's transfer and promotion, but as the head of the organization of the municipal party committee, he was no longer under his jurisdiction, so he pretended to be deaf and dumb.But he knew that he had heard about the things that Hou Yongwen did with his half-brother Gao Ming, the former executive deputy director of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee.With the exposure of Qiao Baiming's problem and Gao Ming's "double regulation", he knew that as long as the discipline inspection department recognized the truth, Hou Yongwen would be transferred and promoted, and he would not be able to escape the return of the law.

At the end of the day, she didn't know what she was busy with. For some reason, Jia Shizhen felt a little heavy in her head. When he arrived at the hotel, although the restaurant had prepared a special dinner for him, he ate it without taste. He didn’t know whether he was full or not. On the way back to the dormitory, people kept saying hello to him. He just nodded mechanically, shaking like a puppet. As soon as he entered the door, his mood became even more gloomy. Standing in the living room and looking around without turning on the lights, he suddenly thought that Secretary Chang was going to hold the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee tomorrow afternoon to study the positions of Cheng Wenwu, Zhang Jingyuan and Zhuang Tonggao.However, the central research team will come tomorrow morning. Will the Standing Committee still be held on time?If the central research team came here to openly, fairly, and impartially select leading cadres some time ago, he suddenly suspected that the so-called "three openness" he used to do was to fool the city's cadres and the masses, and he couldn't help but feel a little bit of a smile on his face. It was hot, as if I had become a big liar who deceived the world and bluffed!Although Jia Shizhen's mood can't be said to be very bad, she always has a feeling of discomfort in her throat.Turned on the light and just picked up a cigarette when someone knocked on the door.Jia Shizhen was a non-smoker, and now she was holding a cigarette in her hand, and before she could light it, she turned and went to open the door.As soon as the door opened, it turned out to be Changjiang Xiquan of the Agricultural Bank of China.

Needless to say, Jia Shizhen immediately thought that President Jiang came here again for the promotion of his nephew Cheng Wenwu.At this moment, Jia Shizhen thought that although the majestic president of the city's Agricultural Bank of China is only a county-level cadre, he is in charge of everything and is an important official who holds a large amount of loans in his hands. Well, it's impossible to humbly come to your door and beg the head of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee.But for the sake of his nephew, he once offered you Jia Shizhen his newly bought Buick sedan worth 300,000 yuan, but you, Minister Jia, didn't show any face.Later, people ignored you Minister Jia at all. It was still rumored that you were going to study at the Central Party School for a year, and you still had to hand over the power of the Organization Department!

To be honest, during this period of time, Jia Shizhen, after constant reflection, has suddenly matured a lot. When he saw President Jiang standing at the door, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he threw away the troubles just now, and hurriedly greeted him. He said: "Come, come, it's President Jiang! Please sit down!" Suddenly thinking of the cigarette in his hand, he said, "Look, I know you're coming, so I've got all the cigarettes." Pass it to Jiang Xiquan. Jiang Xiquan took the cigarette, opened the bag, took out the soft Zhonghua, quickly pulled out one, stuffed it into Jia Shizhen's hand, and then pressed the lighter to light a cigarette for Jia Shizhen.

Jia Shizhen gave way and said, "President Jiang, you know that I don't smoke." Jiang Xiquan insisted on lighting a cigarette for him, and said with a smile, "Mr. Jia, you are planning to smoke the cigarette just now!" Jiang Xiquan said in his mouth, thinking in his heart, you, Mr. Jia, must have some troubles!Otherwise, how could a person smoke! Jia Shizhen pretended not to hear Jiang Xiquan's words, and said: "President Jiang really has a clever plan. I just came back from the province and just entered the gate of the dormitory." "You are a popular person. The whole city has been paying attention to Minister Jia for the past two days. I heard that Minister Jia is going to the United States to drink foreign ink soon. In the future, he will use the advanced experience of the United States for a long time." Jiang Xiquan Perhaps aware of the sarcasm in his language, he immediately said, "Minister Jia, what I'm telling you is the truth. Since the 1990s, all provinces have sent capable young leading cadres abroad for training. These comrades have done a great job after returning All have been outstanding, and all have been promoted to key leadership positions."

Jia Shizhen ignored him, knowing that he had complaints about Cheng Wenwu's matter, so what's the point of letting others vent!The promotion of the secretary of the main leader is a matter of course. As the head of the organization, he understands Jiang Xiquan very well.Jia Shizhen really wanted to see what Jiang Xiquan had to say, because since Cheng Wenwu's promotion was put on hold, not only Cheng Wenwu's face showed it, but Jiang Xiquan also avoided him everywhere. Jiang Xiquan clearly saw him, but deliberately avoided him, pretending not to see him.Of course, Jiang Xiquan came to the door suddenly now, and acted so calmly, as if nothing happened in the past, which shows that Jiang Xiquan is quite experienced in the officialdom. Jia Shizhen acted calm and composed, seeing that the cigarette in Jiang Xiquan's hand was almost burnt out, and handed him another cigarette.Jiang Xiquan took the cigarette, smiled and didn't speak immediately. At this moment, maybe the two of them were thinking about the same question. The two of them didn't speak, they were both smoking a cigarette and thinking about something.Jia Shizhen didn't know much about smoking, but he had to risk his life to accompany the gentleman. Perhaps this was a good way to ease the embarrassing atmosphere. He took two puffs and let the cigarette smoke slowly.Jiang Xiquan smoked continuously at this time.The atmosphere was so stagnant that one could feel that these two people were hiding something special in their hearts. "Minister Jia," Jiang Xiquan finally spoke, he suddenly became a little embarrassed, "You and Secretary Chang are going to study, I think things in the officialdom are indeed changing rapidly, really, to be honest, in the future it will be What's going on, no one can say..." "President Jiang, you are..." Jia Shizhen pretended to be surprised, "Why, what does the two of us have to do with you, the rich and powerful bank president?" "Yes, Minister Jia, Wen Wu has been with Secretary Chang for several years, you know, the secretary of Dafan..." Jiang Xiquan looked affectionate, "To be honest, after you arrived in Xiyu, the cadres and the masses were in a hurry. Appreciation, you are a reformed leader with a hatred and harmony style, which is well known to everyone, and everyone remembers it very much... However, as a leader in the officialdom, everyone wants to make progress, which is also a natural law, so I still have the cheek to beg you, I hope that before you and Secretary Chang leave, the civil and military affairs..." Jiang Xiquan didn't continue, took out a soft Zhonghua cigarette from his pocket, and handed another one to Jia Shizhen.Jia Shizhen took the cigarette, just as Jiang Xiquan lit the lighter, Jia Shizhen waved his hand. "President Jiang, I fully understand what you just said. I have not forgotten the past. Maybe you and Comrade Wenwu have some opinions on me. It is regarded as a scourge. If everyone does not want to be an official, where do so many officials, large and small, come from? But at present, many of our systems are not sound and perfect, so that some people with low quality can get into The officialdom has ruined the reputation of the officialdom. However, the methods I advocate select all good cadres with both ability and political integrity..." Jia Shizhen looked at Jiang Xiquan's reaction and continued, "China has made a big difference in the relationship between morality and ability. Wonderful exposition: Virtue is the foundation of virtue, and virtue is the commander of talent. Those who have both virtue and ability are called "sages", those without virtue and talent are called "fools", those who have virtue better than talent are called "gentlemen", and those who are better than virtue are called "gentlemen". It is called "little man". Generally, the way to select talents is to choose saints first, but how many "sages" are there in the world? Of course, if you can't choose a saint, you can choose a gentleman. It is better to choose a fool than a villain. The prodigal son of the family, because he has more than enough intelligence but not enough virtue, is there still a lot of things that overthrow the government and ruin the family business?" "Yes!" Jiang Xiquan's face revealed a rare gentleness, "However, reform is still necessary. The cadres and masses in Xiyu appreciate Minister Jia's selfless and fearless spirit..." Jia Shizhen waved her hand and interrupted Jiang Xiquan's words: "President Jiang, don't think too highly of me. I know there are people who support my approach, but there are also people who oppose it!" Jia Shizhen paused and said, "President Jiang, Have you shared your thoughts with Secretary Chang?" "Minister Jia, to be honest, I also feel embarrassed. Knowing that you and Secretary Chang will leave Xiyu soon," Jiang Xiquan lit a cigarette, "It's not appropriate for me to talk to Secretary Chang, but the civil and military authorities will tell him Yes, Minister Jia, please..." Jia Shizhen nodded, pondered for a while, and said: "President Jiang, please believe that I, Jia Shizhen, am not a monster who can't eat the fireworks of the world. I also have emotions and desires. I respect Secretary Chang's opinion. He is the old secretary of the municipal party committee. It is me." leadership." "Then I'll thank Minister Jia on behalf of Wenwu." Jiang Xiquan stood up after speaking, held Jia Shizhen's hand and said, "I've wasted Minister Jia's time, then I'll take my leave." As soon as Jiang Xiquan left, Jia Shizhen lay down on the sofa and let out a long breath. He felt that the conversation with Jiang Xiquan just now was more tiring than doing any physical work. He is the head of the organization, and he can neither lose the dignity of the word "organization" nor lose the dignity of the word "organization". Pull down your face and play an official accent.In fact, he really wanted to reveal to Jiang Xiquan the initial thoughts he had discussed with Secretary Chang about Cheng Wenwu, Zhang Jingyuan, and Zhuang Tonggao.But doing so clearly violates the principle of "organization".At the same time, he also wanted to disclose the approximate time of the Standing Committee decided by Secretary Chang, but Jia Shizhen still kept the minimum bottom line of the organization minister.Thinking about it now, he was really at a loss as to whether the Standing Committee meeting would be held as scheduled tomorrow afternoon.Jia Shizhen wanted to reveal such a crucial question, but after thinking about it again and again, he still held his breath.Of course, Jia Shizhen concluded that Cheng Wenwu had already approached Secretary Chang before Secretary Chang talked to him, and even Secretary Chang himself didn't know that the central research team would come to Xiyu tomorrow morning. Thinking of the arrival of the Central Research Team, Jia Shizhen's heart suddenly brightened. The person below is afraid of the investigation team. Although there is only one word difference between investigation and investigation, the meaning is quite different.Most of the investigation team is aimed at major accidents, especially if people died, and it wasn't just one or two people who died, that is to investigate the responsibility.The research team mostly sums up experience and formulates policies.Thinking of this, Jia Shizhen sat up from the sofa, lit a cigarette, and took a deep puff. At this moment, the phone rang, and he still looked at the caller ID. It was the home phone that he was so familiar with, so he picked up the phone. Before he could say "Hello", his wife said impatiently, "Shi Zhen Ah, when will you come back..." "What happened?" "Deputy Director Zhang is really going to be the director!" Lingling looked very anxious, "He came to me again and said that Secretary Chang agreed to solve Zhang Jingyuan's problems before you left, and let me give it to you no matter what. Tell me, please be merciful, the head of the organization of the municipal party committee, and don't kill them all!" "Hey, it's so serious!" Jia Shizhen smiled, "In this case, I'm not the head of the organization, but an executioner!" "Shizhen, I beg you." Lingling almost begged, "You can see that we have been married for many years, please give me some face and give me a normal way of life!" Jia Shizhen was a little panicked, and was stunned for a long time without saying a word. The two sides gradually calmed down on the phone, but Jia Shizhen sensed his wife's mood at this moment, and hurriedly said: "Lingling, Secretary Chang and I already had an opinion on this matter yesterday afternoon, and...but..." "Shizhen, what are you trying to say?" After hanging up the phone, Jia Shizhen felt a little regretful again. Although she was his wife, how could he speak out about such a serious issue that had not yet become a reality?If it really got out, is he still competent as the head of the organization of the municipal party committee?If it can't be implemented, it will not only harm his wife, but also harm himself!Maybe it was because I lost my mind for a while on the phone, or it was because my wife's painful feelings stung some nerve for a while!He felt that he had never been so absurd and sloppy. He wanted to call his wife several times to correct what he said just now, but he felt that he was like a three-year-old child! He felt that he had changed, became unclear about major issues, and preoccupied with trivial matters.Why can't you get out of this little thing?Jia Shizhen lingered restlessly in the dormitory alone until midnight, until he was so tired and sleepy that he couldn't bear it anymore, and then he lay down on the bed with his clothes on, but his brain was extremely excited, and he always felt that he had done a lot in a trance. Can't tell what's not clear. At dawn, Jia Shizhen felt as if there was an iron pot on her head, and she couldn't lift her head.I washed my swollen head with cold water, and went to the office without even eating breakfast. As soon as I entered the office, I received a notice from the Municipal Party Committee Office to hold a meeting in the Standing Committee meeting room at ten o'clock in the morning.As soon as he put down the phone, Secretary Chang called again and asked him to go to his office immediately. As soon as he entered Secretary Chang's outer room, he saw Mayor Shao Ming and the newly appointed Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee Yao Yusheng sitting on the sofa in the outer room.At this time, Chang Youlian came out from the room with a cigarette in hand, and waved to Jia Shizhen. Chang Youlian sat down, put his cigarettes on the sofa, and said, "I invite you to come here mainly for discussion." He looked at his watch and said, "About half past ten, the Central Research Group and Vice Minister Qin of the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department Arrived, according to Vice Minister Qin's opinion, the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and the research team will meet in the morning, and a symposium may be held in the afternoon, because Minister Jia and I will leave the city tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, so time is very tight. Other work of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government They all have to be pushed." Chang Youlian stopped suddenly, glanced at the cigarettes on the coffee table, but did not take them, Jia Shizhen had been paying attention to Secretary Chang, he felt that Secretary Chang was not what he used to be. Either excited, or intentionally deep, at this time, Secretary Chang was rarely sad, and it even made people feel that his energy was insufficient, and it seemed that he couldn't even lift his eyelids.Jia Shizhen reckoned that, like herself, he probably didn't sleep well all night. Everyone remained silent, and all looked at Secretary Chang. After a while, Chang Youlian said, "Minister Jia, the Central Research Team came mainly for the reform of the cadre and personnel system in Xiyu in the previous stage. I am afraid that Minister Jia will Play the leading role!" Jia Shizhen wasn't going to speak first. The mayor and Deputy Secretary Yao were here, so of course he couldn't speak first. This was an official rule.But Secretary Chang has already called his name, and it would be inappropriate for him not to speak, so he had to say: "I think the Central Research Team came to Xiyu mainly for investigation and research. If they need me to report any problems, I will definitely be there. Before I left, I unreservedly introduced what I knew to them, including the two deputy directors of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee and other comrades. I will report to the province the day after tomorrow.” "But you have to know that it is very rare for the central research team to come directly to a city. If good experience can be summed up, it will greatly improve the popularity of Xiyu and the political and economic construction of Xiyu in the future. Great benefits." When Chang Youlian said these words, he was not that excited and excited. Shao Ming looked at Yao Yusheng beside him, but he didn't speak.Jia Shizhen felt more and more strange, wondering why Secretary Chang had called everyone here. "Mayor Shao, the reception of the Central Research Team cannot be ambiguous. Everyone here at noon should go and accompany the research team!" Just as Chang Youlian looked at his watch, Jia Shizhen also looked at his watch. It was almost ten o'clock. Chang Youlian stood up and said, "Let's go to the meeting room of the Standing Committee. Minister Jia, please call Deputy Minister Qin and ask where they are." As soon as he arrived at the meeting room of the Standing Committee, Secretary Chang changed his mind and led everyone to the building of the Municipal Party Committee, where he stood on the square in front of the building and waited for the Central Research Team. Until half past ten, an Audi sedan with a provincial license plate drove into the municipal committee compound, followed by a Buick. Before the car came to a complete stop, Chang Youlian went up to greet him. Everyone shook hands, and Vice Minister Qin introduced several guests who came from afar. When we arrived at the meeting room of the Standing Committee, the guests took their liberties for a while, then they sat down separately and ate fruit for a while. It was already past eleven o'clock. Vice Minister Qin said that we should meet in the morning first, and we will talk about specific issues in the afternoon! Ordinarily, in addition to introducing the positions of the guests, the work units should also be introduced, but Vice Minister Qin only introduced the positions of the three guests from the Central Research Team, but did not introduce their work units and names.Director Wang, the leader of the research team, Deputy Director Liang and Director Hong are members. Director Wang has a bold personality. Although he is over fifty years old, he drinks very refreshingly. At the beginning, several leaders of the Xiyu Municipal Committee were a little worried and dared not toast, but when Secretary Chang made a toast, Director Wang drank three glasses in a row. Come, everyone will toast boldly. Jia Shizhen didn't dare to toast, but Director Wang said: "Minister Jia, you need to change your concept. You see that you boldly reformed the cadre and personnel system so simply and boldly, but you drank cautiously. This should not be your style. !” Holding his wine glass, he said, “I heard that you are going to the United States to attend a training course for senior management cadres. I think it is a rare opportunity! In today’s society, any country and any job must be in line with the world, otherwise it will be closed. Closed If you are behind, you will be beaten if you fall behind, you will be injured if you are beaten, and you will be hurt if you are injured. Come, let our research team see you off!" Holding the wine glass, Jia Shizhen smacked Director Wang's glass gracefully, and said, "It's too unfortunate, Director Wang, that I don't have more time to listen to the leadership's teachings. You work in the central government, whether it's information, knowledge, The views are the most extensive and the most advanced, but we are at the grassroots level, so many jobs are inevitably a little blind. Director Wang, when I come back from the United States, I will definitely visit you in Beijing. Come, I respect Director Wang! " Jia Shizhen usually said that he would not drink alcohol. Although there was some truth to it, in fact, if he really drank, he would be fine. But ever since he and his fellow director went to the Hongmen Hotel to attend a banquet hosted by Wang Xuexi, the director of the regional planning office, he was drunk. Alcohol, after almost making a big mistake, he made up his mind not to drink again, and used reason to control himself under any circumstances.But today the situation is different. He respected Director Wang, and then had to respect Deputy Director Liang and Director Hong. In this way, he drank more than ten glasses of wine. After the banquet, Director Wang was still lingering. After Secretary Chang left, he took Jia Shizhen to his room and talked enthusiastically about China's rural system reform and economic system reform in the past 20 years of reform and opening up. As well as a series of documents issued by the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on the reform of the personnel system for cadres.He also said that he saw netizens' praise and criticism of Jia Shizhen's radical reforms on the Internet.Director Wang said that no matter what level of official, anyone who sincerely wants to reform should support and affirm it. Reform is an attempt. Since it is an attempt, there will be risks. There must be some people who support it, some people criticize it, and some people oppose it. There is also the possibility of failure.Jia Shizhen wanted to leave several times, and offered to let Director Wang rest, but Director Wang always grabbed his hand and refused to let him go. It didn't look like a leader caring about his subordinates, but rather like an old friend reunited after a long absence. Although Jia Shizhen suspected that Director Wang drank too much and talked drunk, after careful observation, he found that Director Wang was quick thinking and organized, and none of his words were drunk. It wasn't until 2:30 in the afternoon that Director Wang looked at his watch and said, "Minister Jia, I only knew from some media that there was a young Municipal Party Committee Organization Director in Xiyu. I am honored to meet you today. I am very happy. The time given to us is too short, here is my business card." Director Wang said and handed over a business card, "There is my phone number on it, I have a chance to welcome Minister Jia to Beijing, let's have a good chat." Jia Shizhen took the business card and took a serious look at it, but it was a business card he had never seen before. It only said Director Wang of Beijing ×× mailbox, as well as Beijing's phone number and mobile phone number.There is no specific unit, so Jia Shizhen took a look, although he was puzzled, it was inconvenient to express.To be honest, although Jia Shizhen has worked in the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee for eight years and is now the head of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee, she always has a vague feeling about the central and high-level organizations. To achieve what purpose.Therefore, although Director Wang has always been bold and eloquent, he is always just smiling and dare not make mistakes.As for the identities of Director Wang and the others, it is estimated that the Central Committee and the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee passed Qi. Jia Shizhen still understands this rule. After Vice Minister Qin knocked on the door and entered the room, he said, "Director Wang met a bosom friend? Didn't you rest all afternoon?" "Minister Jia is going to go abroad for further study soon, what a rare opportunity!" Director Wang said while holding Jia Shizhen's hand tightly. According to Director Wang's opinion, the afternoon symposium was changed to a meeting attended by the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, because there are nine members of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee. In order to save time, Director Wang hoped that each member of the Standing Committee could express their personal opinions and give everyone a chance to fully express their opinions. At the beginning of the meeting, Director Wang made a brief speech. He said that the trip to Xiyu was mainly to listen to the opinions and opinions of the cadres and masses in Xiyu on the current reform of the cadre and personnel system, and he could completely jump out of the reform circle of Xiyu some time ago. The central research team is purely policy research without any framework. I hope that leaders will not have any worries and open their minds to talk about their views. But the members of the Standing Committee are very cautious when facing the Central Research Group. How can they open their minds, say everything they know, and talk endlessly?Most comrades hope that the central government can have a clear attitude, especially when it comes to sensitive issues such as the cadre system. Jia Shizhen said in his speech that some cadres and netizens severely criticized his actions some time ago, saying that his advocacy of passing cultural examinations as the key to the first selection of talents is pure nonsense. Could it be that a cadre has a high score in the cultural examination? , Can it determine the level of his other abilities and qualities?He even said that he was not qualified to be the head of the organization of the municipal party committee at all, and could only be a deputy township head.Jia Shizhen seemed so depressed. He seemed to ask a very serious question to the leaders present and the central research team. He said that he didn't want to think about it, and think about how the reform of the cadre and personnel system in the previous stage was not for reform. Reform, but to reorganize the power relationship, let more people who sincerely serve the people and have both ability and political integrity take power, remove the power of mediocre officials, and deprive corrupt officials of their power; Within the scope of personnel, it is necessary to liberate the productivity of cadres and various talents to serve economic development, cultural construction, and social progress; thinking deeply, through the reform of unreasonable systems and mechanisms, ultimately improve the world and improve life.However, he is only the head of the municipal party committee organization, and now he has pushed himself to the forefront. His life, work, and family are already facing a crisis and a severe test. After Jia Shizhen spoke, the venue suddenly fell silent. Director Wang went to the bathroom, but no one spoke after he came back, and he didn't give any more guiding inspiration. He didn't expect Jia Shizhen to have so many troubles deep in his mind. and worry. Chang Youlian did not try its best to coordinate or ease the atmosphere when there was loneliness or embarrassment in the meeting place like the usual standing committee.As the secretary of the municipal party committee and the representative of the highest power in Xiyu City, it was also the first time he met an organization minister like Jia Shizhen, and it was the first time that he could not face so many cadres who had different opinions in the city.On the one hand, he had to support Jia Shizhen's reform of the cadre and personnel system, and on the other hand, he didn't know how to face the power in his hands; Do not bear the accusations and pressures of other social relations on him.Let's just talk about his secretary, Cheng Wenwu. In the past, if the secretary of the municipal party committee wanted to promote his secretary, it was just a matter of one word, and no one could stop him.However, what he didn't expect was that it was so difficult for Cheng Wenwu to be promoted. Is this because of his incompetence as the secretary of the municipal party committee, or the excessiveness of the head of the organization?I thought that Jia Shizhen had been studying at the Central Party School for a year, and Xiyu would return to his former peace, but... this was indeed something that Chang Youlian did not expect.Yesterday, I managed to unify my thoughts with Jia Shizhen, and even persuaded the mayor and the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, but... At this moment, in this Standing Committee meeting room, the meeting should have been another matter, but who would have thought of all this!Chang Youlian didn't know why, and let his thoughts gradually run wild. Suddenly, Director Wang stood up, bent down again, and whispered next to Secretary Chang, "Secretary Chang, take a fifteen-minute break!" Chang Youlian hurriedly withdrew his boiling thoughts and said, "Okay, rest, rest." Although the members of the Standing Committee stood up after a break, they were not as casual as usual. Someone took out a cigarette, but looked at Director Wang and the others. Director Wang saw that Chang Youlian was standing still, and said, "When will Secretary Chang go to the province?" report here?" Chang Youlian said, "Report tomorrow afternoon." Deputy Minister Qin said: "Let's go together tomorrow morning!" Chang Youlian said, "Vice Minister Qin won't stay with Director Wang and the others?" Director Wang said: "We are doing research. In fact, we should come directly to Xiyu by ourselves. Minister Qian said that we are not familiar with him, so he must accompany Vice Minister Qin. Now his task is completed." Deputy Minister Qin said: "Shizhen, you should report for duty the day after tomorrow!" "That's right!" Jia Shizhen said, "It's such an unfortunate coincidence that I don't have time to listen to Director Wang's teachings!" "Minister Jia, we are here to study. To be honest, today's Standing Committee symposium is also a routine, and the following activities are mainly for visits and research!" Director Wang walked out with a smile, and Chang Youlian followed Director Wang. Follow and go outside. The meeting room of the Standing Committee is on the third floor of the Municipal Party Committee Building. At the top of the stairs, Chang Youlian said, "Director Wang, my office is on the second floor. Go down for activities?" On the second floor, Jia Shizhen saw Cheng Wenwu standing at the door of Secretary Chang's office. Jia Shizhen could clearly see Cheng Wenwu's restless look, and watched them turn and disappear at the corner of the corridor.It was only then that Jia Shizhen thought of Cheng Wenwu's mood at the moment. He glanced at Secretary Chang, who was still walking at a leisurely pace. Jia Shizhen wondered if Secretary Chang had seen Secretary Cheng.For some reason, Jia Shizhen felt that the affairs of Cheng Wenwu, Zhang Jingyuan and Zhuang Tonggao became more and more confusing!Now it seems that Secretary Chang told him that it is not realistic to convene the Standing Committee. Not only is the time impossible, but also the conditions for holding the Standing Committee are not met.Thinking of this, Jia Shizhen secretly glanced at his watch. It was already almost five o'clock in the afternoon, and the meeting of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee had not yet ended. Besides, the Central Research Team was here. How about the special Standing Committee study the promotion of these three cadres?Jia Shizhen felt this question weighed on her heart like a stone.If the problems of these three people are not resolved, I am afraid that no one will stop there.Of course, Secretary Chang and him, the organization director of the Municipal Party Committee, were about to leave the city, so this issue was naturally settled. As long as the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee was not convened, the promotion of cadres would be empty talk. Indeed, Jia Shizhen did not expect the situation to change so suddenly, even though he proposed to Secretary Chang that a special Standing Committee should be convened to study the promotion of Cheng Wenwu and the three of them in such a tight time before the two of them studied, he was extremely displeased. A matter of will, or against one's will.However, he knew that he should respect the secretary's opinion.After more than half a year of ups and downs, he began to calmly face the reality and deal with the power in his hands realistically. Everyone went back to the meeting room. Director Wang and Secretary Chang looked at their watches almost at the same time. It was more than half an hour before the off-duty time. Director Wang nodded to Chang Youlian and said, "Secretary Chang will go to the provincial government tomorrow morning. Report, Minister Jia will leave the day after tomorrow, I think today is a rare opportunity, I just wanted to hear everyone's opinions, but I feel free to talk about it." Director Wang paused, his eyes slowly turned to the members of the Standing Committee. moving. "Regarding the reform of the cadre and personnel system, although the Organization Department of the Central Committee has issued many documents, and various regions have carried out pilot projects to varying degrees, this work has not been carried out, or all levels are exploring experience to varying degrees." Wang Si The chief became serious, "Xiyu's approach has certain significance, it is a bold attempt and exploration, it is worthy of study, and it is also worthy of praise. Although some people put forward criticisms on the Internet, we still think it is commendable. Today in China已经不是五六十年代的情况了，一个国家必须融入世界的潮流中去，必须跟上世界的步伐，否则这个国家就会落后，落后就要挨打。中国的改革开放不是要不要的问题，市场经济必然取替计划经济，人事制度改革也一样，不可能一成不变，所以当前的问题是怎么改。所以，中央指示我们要全面地了解、总结各地的做法，总结经验，从宏观上进行引导。所以，我们这次到西臾来，将认真听取广大干部和群众对干部人事制度改革到底有什么意见、要求和建议。” 至于下一步怎么进行干部人事制度改革，贾士贞的心里突然感到几分茫然，原以为王司长多少会透露点高层的动向的，现在看来，王司长的话只是理论上的探讨。当然他同时又想到即将赴美国参加为期半年的高级管理干部培训班，一方面可以看看外面的世界，一方面也可以听听各方面专家学者的见解。 尽管王司长没有具体谈到西臾前段时间的干部人事制度改革的是和非，他始终只是从理论上、宏观上作了简要的阐述，但贾士贞渐渐地能够理解王司长的思想动态。 直到下班时间已经过了，而且王司长自己也不时地看看时间，可他还是一拖再拖，直到六点半钟过后，才意犹未尽地匆匆结束了讲话。 会议结束后，常书记突然说，今天晚上由他个人宴请中央调研组和在座的各位常委。贾士贞一愣，常书记个人宴请中央调查组和市委常委，事先他连一点信息都没有得到，心里有点不太舒畅。作为市委书记，对于上面下来的领导也好，重要部门的同志也好，这都是堂而皇之的公务活动，没有必要个人去接待宴请，当然了，贾士贞的心里完全清楚，堂堂的市委书记说是以个人名义，还能当真从自己口袋里掏钱？只有三岁孩子才相信呢！可是这样一想，贾士贞又越来越觉得自己幼稚，越来越觉得自己不成熟了，怎么一个堂堂的市委组织部长在这时候成小心眼的小市民了！ 宴请没有放在西臾宾馆，而是放在这几年迅速崛起的民营企业——宏兴大酒店。贾士贞到西臾不久就听说宏兴大酒店的总经理和常书记的关系不一般。这位名叫赵雅之的女人居然和香港影星赵雅芝的名字相仿，只是她的“之”字头上缺个草字头。虽然只有三十多岁，却有着极不平凡的人生经历。据说宏兴大酒店开业那天人气非常旺，市四套班子的主要领导大部分都去了，常书记还亲自剪彩。 大家出了市委大门，很快来到宏兴大酒店。领导们刚进大厅，就见市政府办公室负责接待的王副主任一行三人已经迎在门口。就在这时，贾士贞突然想到程文武，按照往常的惯例，在这样的时刻是少不了他的，可现在却不见程文武的影子，不知道为什么，这反而成了他的一块心病，居然在这样的时刻还记着程文武，当然这其中的原因还是因为他是常书记的秘书。 贾士贞紧随中央调研组三位领导，在大厅拐弯处，他远远看见程文武朝常书记迎过来。几乎是同时，程文武也看到了贾士贞，当贾士贞的目光和程文武相遇时，两人已经近在眼前了，贾士贞没有犹豫，伸出手，本想像久别重逢的老朋友那样，同他用力握一下就放开的，却被程文武紧紧抓住不放，于是灵机一动，便拉着程文武的手，把中央调研组三位介绍给他，并认真地对王司长说：“王司长，这位是常书记的秘书，程文武同志！” 在这一瞬间，贾士贞心里突然涌上来一种别扭的感觉，也不知道是自己做错了，还是中国的现行体制的毛病。程文武现在只不过才是一个正科级干部，充其量只是一个准副处级，这种场合需要如此隆重地向中央调研组领导介绍吗？他觉得自己成了戏剧里面的滑稽小丑，这种表现也太低俗了点。 对于程文武的表现，贾士贞在心里反复琢磨，特别是刚才的握手，现在想想，到底是程文武主动，还是他主动，他怎么也回忆不起来了。他虽然坐在酒桌上，虽然竭力应付着酒场上的局面，可他心里一直在分析着程文武目前的心理状态。是高兴，还是沮丧？是安慰，还是遗憾？是不是就像到了嘴边的一块肥肉，已经闻到香味，甚至都靠到嘴唇边了，却突然间掉进河里了？想到这里，贾士贞一点也不怪程文武了，程文武只不过才是市委书记的秘书，不用他说，谁不知道，有的省委书记、省长的秘书早已快马加鞭，当上了省委书记、省长了。难道他程秘书就能心甘情愿地永远待在正科级这个位置吗？难道他不想进步，不想更上一层楼，成为一个副县、正县处级干部吗？难道他不想和那些省委书记、省长的秘书一样，自己也成为市委书记吗？ 不知道为何，今天晚上的酒本应该放开喝的，可是宴席上总是调不起兴致。贾士贞更显得心事重重的样子。 就在这时，常友连不声不响地离开了座位。但是官儿当大了，任何时候都有人盯着，常友连刚一出门，旁边的包间里就冒出一个人来，常友连一看，原来是程文武。常友连一边走一边说：“文武啊，你也看到了，谁会想到……” “是啊，常书记，怪只怪我的命……”程文武跟在常友连身边，低着头。 “好啦，迟就迟几个月吧，好在大家的意见都一致了！” “只是不知道您学习后……” 常友连停住了脚步，回头白了程文武一眼：“怎么，你希望我走……” “不不不，我怕您学习回来就提拔到省政府当省长了！”程文武似乎有几分兴奋，尽管这吹牛拍马的话言过其实了点，在中国市委书记直接当省长的还从没有过，充其量先当副省长或者省委常委，当省长还早着呢，但一个人到了市委书记的位置上，对省长、省委书记的渴望，就变得更加迫切了！ 到了卫生间，常友连进去了，程文武站在门口守着，那样子很像保镖。过了一会儿常友连刚出来，站到洗手池边，程文武不知道从什么地方拿出一条雪白的热毛巾，送到常书记的手里，常友连朝程文武笑笑。 两人往回走着，常友连突然说：“文武呀，你得马上进去敬敬酒，名义是敬中央调研组的，实际上要敬敬贾部长。” 程文武抓抓头，说：“那好吧！” 说着，跟在常书记后面进了包间，室内并没有什么特别活跃的气氛，常友连拉着程文武，说：“来来来各位领导，小程要给大家敬酒了！” 程文武刚端起酒杯，常书记说：“我今天喝了不少酒，难得见到中央领导同志，我讲几句醉话，也让大家活跃活跃气氛吧！” 王司长说：“好啊，这也算是酒文化吧！” 常友连不笑了，说：“首先申明，我这个笑话并非贬低农村人，因为我们在座的各位祖宗说不定都是农村的。”常友连故意清了清喉咙，“过去农村很穷，很不容易做一件新衣服。有一个妇女，好不容易做了一条新裤子，平时舍不得穿。有一天，她要上街，就把新裤子穿上了，可是又怕磨着了，有点舍不得，于是又套一条旧裤子在外面，但是又希望人家知道自己里面有一条新裤子。想来想去，想到了一个办法，自己不识字，就请别人写了一张纸条，'内有新裤一条'，用糨糊贴在屁股后面。就这样上街了，在大街走了几圈，手一摸，纸条不见了，就到处找，好不容易找到一张，看那纸条和自己的差不多，就蘸点唾液往屁股上一贴，仍然在大街上走。你们猜怎么着，原来她拣到的不是原来的那张纸条！” 大家都一句话也不说，盯着常书记看，常友连突然说：“小程，喝酒！” 程文武被弄得有莫名其妙，看看常书记，一连喝了两杯酒，这时常友连摆摆手说：“有没有人猜到纸条上的内容？” 大家不说话，程文武说：“常书记，我想正确答案应该是'此门不通，请走前门'吧！” 顿时逗得大家哄然大笑。 王司长说：“程秘书是近朱者赤啊！” 程文武好像心事重重，过了一会儿，淡淡地一笑。只是，他的笑容有些凄然。
