Chapter 31 Chapter 31 Proposals for Public Selection of Leading Cadres

Until dinner, Jia Shizhen locked himself in the bedroom, and there were two light knocks on the door outside, and he withdrew his boiling thoughts, opened the door, and saw Gao Jia standing at the door with a smile on his face, Jia Shizhen smiled Said: "Secretary Gao, please come in!" After Gao Jia entered the room, he handed Jia Shizhen a cigarette and said, "What is Director Jia doing in the room alone?" Jia Shizhen said, "Secretary Gao, please sit down!" "Director Jia, a standing committee has been held this afternoon." Gao Jia took a puff of cigarette and said, "Several cadres and standing committee members have done research."

Jia Shizhen looked at Gao Jia, thinking that the county committee only studied department-level cadres, so there was absolutely no need to tell him about it. Then he thought, might it have something to do with Wei Xin.If so, this Gao Jia is a bit too fast!Jia Shizhen just smoked silently, not taking up his topic. Gao Jia also said: "The county committee intends to appoint Wei Xin as the deputy director of the county committee office, and Mei Ting as the deputy director of the Cultural Bureau." Jia Shizhen looked a little surprised, looked at him with wide eyes and said, "Secretary Gao, something is wrong with this!"

Gao Jia's face changed slightly, and he immediately smiled and said, "Yes, yes, yes, Director Jia, I shouldn't have said this!" Jia Shizhen took a deep breath, but just let out an oh, and neither of them said a word for a long time.Jia Shizhen evaluated Gao Jia subconsciously in his head. From the first time he saw Gao Jia, he felt that this person's mind was not complicated. He could be regarded as an outgoing leader with a straightforward heart and no conspiracy.However, thinking about the problem is a bit immature and not sophisticated enough. After dinner, Jia Shizhen and Yu Ming and Li Xiaofeng took a walk in the yard, and Wei Xin and Mei Ting came.Jia Shizhen and Mei Ting and his wife returned to the room, and Mei Ting told Jia Shizhen about the research cadres of the Standing Committee of the County Committee this afternoon.

Jia Shizhen just smiled coldly and immediately avoided the topic. Mei Ting smiled and said shyly: "Old classmate, don't laugh at me, it's not your power as the deputy director of the prefectural and county cadre division of the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department, how could it be our turn in Lingjiang County! Besides, what is this little deputy department-level cadre!" Jia Shizhen raised her head solemnly, looked at them, and said, "Mei Ting must not talk nonsense. It has nothing to do with me. It won't sound good if it spreads. Gao Jia came here to tell me about the two of you before dinner. I didn't let him say that Gao Jia's matter was a little reckless, and if it spread, it would be bad for you and me. The day before yesterday, a group of us went to your house to drink with great fanfare. Today, the Standing Committee will hold a meeting to study the promotion of the two of you. Question, what do the masses think when they know about it? How do they comment? Of course he did it for me, and this person is too obvious.” After a pause, he continued, “Don’t underestimate this deputy, At the provincial level, they are at the deputy department level, and at the regional level, they are also at the deputy director level! The same procedures, the same principles, and the same powers!"

Although Mei Ting was a little embarrassed and felt that this matter was like a dream, she was still very happy in her heart. Wei Xin was holding Zhonghua brand cigarettes, his hands trembling slightly, and it took him a long time to pull out one, handed it to Jia Shizhen and said, "Director Jia, we husband and wife really don't know how to thank you, now that the officialdom is like you It is true that there are too few leaders, and you are helping us sincerely, and..." Wei Xin did not continue, and his heart was always very excited, with crystal tears shaking in his eyes. In this way, Jia Shizhen was made awkward and passive. He felt that Gao Jia, the secretary of the county party committee, was too immature and too reckless. impression.

Jia Shizhen stood up, walked across to Mei Ting and Wei Xin, looked at them and said: "On the issue of cadres, the organization department also hopes to be able to select talents and appoint talents, but unfortunately our current system is not perfect, and it often forms who Whoever has the most power has the final say, resulting in arbitrariness, subjectivity and one-sidedness in the selection and appointment of cadres." Just then the phone rang, and Jia Shizhen picked up the phone: "Hello... I'm Jia Shizhen, hey... good!" "Director Jia, is the work going well?" This is the director's call.

"Everything is going according to the established plan, and the inspection work is progressing smoothly. Does the director have any instructions?" Jia Shizhen said. Putting down the phone, Jia Shizhen thought and thought, thinking of the letter from the people, he put a question mark on Gao Jia, the secretary of the county party committee. Mei Ting still wanted to chat with Jia Shizhen, she had a lot to say in her heart, watching Jia Shizhen answer the phone, she didn't understand what they were talking about about work, and couldn't restrain her beating heart.She said: "Shizhen, we hope that you will continue to improve. I am so happy to have someone like you among our classmates. If you become the head of the Provincial Party Committee Organization, we will definitely support you!"

Jia Shizhen smiled and said, "I don't have that ambition!" Mei Ting said: "Old classmate, we work in the county seat, so we are naturally out of touch with officialdom. Think about it, the biggest officials in the county are at the department level, and there are only a few county party secretary and county magistrates. Can other people still talk about being officials? But Nowadays, all salaries and benefits are related to the position, and the official salary is high, the house is big, and the car is good. Think about it, we are also human beings, and we all live at the bottom of the officialdom!"

Jia Shizhen smiled, with infinite emotion in his heart. He himself was transferred from an ordinary teacher in the Party School of the Prefectural Party Committee to the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee. Otherwise, he would still be an ordinary teacher at any level. At this moment, he did not know how to marry them. What do you two say?I don't know whether to sympathize with Mei Ting and his wife, or to congratulate them! Mei Ting opened the bag in her hand and said: "Shizhen, your kindness to us cannot be expressed in any way. We also know that the current social atmosphere is like this, but you can't accept that vulgar form among our old classmates. I have an ancient collection here, let me give it to you as a souvenir!" Mei Ting carefully took out a paper bag from the bag, opened it and said: "This is handed down by the ancestors of Wei Xin's family, 'Daming Xuande furnace'."

When Jia Shizhen saw it, it was a copper incense burner the size of a small bowl.There are many folklore about this kind of rare treasure, and there are many imitations in the society, but no one has seen the real one. Mei Ting held the small incense burner upside down, pointed to the bottom and said: "These words are the marks for authenticating and counterfeiting, 'Da Ming Xuande year system'. During the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court made a hundred of this kind of incense burner , Most of them were bestowed by the emperor on meritorious ministers at that time. Wei Xin’s ancestors were once a famous frontier official in the Ming Dynasty and received this honor. This treasure has been passed down from generation to generation.”

Wei Xin said: "My grandfather was still alive during the 'Cultural Revolution'. He was afraid of being stolen by the Red Guards, so he packed it in a small jar and buried it in the yard to preserve it." Jia Shizhen lost her mind for a while, and didn't know what role she had become. Before she had time to think about it, she took the treasure, looked at it carefully, and said, "I am very moved by the sincerity of the two of you, but I can't take it away." People love it, not to mention that this is a treasure handed down from your ancestors for many generations!" Mei Ting said: "Old classmate, don't refuse! What's the use of keeping this thing in our hands, even if it's passed down from generation to generation like this, what's the point? Giving it to you is just to express our heart, people It’s not grass, how can you be ruthless! If you don’t accept it, the two of us will just have no peace in our hearts.” Wei Xin said: "Director Jia, let me say something ugly. It's not easy for everyone to be in the officialdom. Take it! You may be able to use it when necessary." Jia Shizhen put the Daming Xuande furnace upright, looked at Mei Ting and Wei Xin seriously, and said: "I can understand your feelings very well, but I must not take such a precious cultural relic for myself." Jia Shizhen hesitated After waiting for a long time, he said, "Well, I will take this item back first, and find a way to find an expert to appraise it. If it is a fake, then it is another matter. If it is a genuine product, such a precious cultural relic, let it be returned to the country! " Mei Ting opened her eyes wide, looked at Jia Shizhen, and said after a long time: "Then...then it's up to you to decide!" "However, if it is indeed the real thing, if it is handed over to the country, it will still be in the name of your husband and wife." Mei Ting stood up and said: "Old classmate, excuse me, we are leaving." Jia Shizhen no longer refused, and hurriedly put down the Daming Xuande stove, and sent Mei Ting and his wife out. The next day, because Ming and Li Xiaofeng stayed in the hotel and held two symposiums, Jia Shizhen continued to run to two towns.Back in the county in the afternoon, the three of them met and planned to return to the Dongyu area after breakfast tomorrow.In the evening, Lingjiang County Party Committee, County Government, County People's Congress, and County Political Consultative Conference were going to hold a grand dinner, which was canceled by Jia Shizhen and changed to a symposium with the County Party Committee Organization Department. At the meeting, Jia Shizhen brought up her own question about the open selection of leading cadres, which aroused strong repercussions from the participants.Tang Wandong, head of the organization of the county party committee, said nothing at the symposium.As soon as the meeting ended, he told Jia Shizhen that the cadre and personnel system must be reformed. Failure to reform will not only affect the pace of reform and opening up, but also increase power corruption and tarnish the party's image.He hoped that Director Jia could work together with the main leaders of the county party committee to study this issue.Knowing Tang Wandong's intentions well, Jia Shizhen decided to immediately ask County Party Secretary Gao Jia County Mayor Xu Jiancai and Organization Minister Tang Wandong to study how to openly select department-level cadres in Lingjiang County. After listening to Jia Shizhen's speech, Gao Jia knew what was going on in his mind, and said that he would immediately start studying the issue of openly selecting some department-level leading cadres, and that he would continue to expand through pilot projects. This method must be used to solve the selection process, so as not to allow those who run for official positions to buy official positions to take advantage of them.At this time, Tang Wandong said that Director Jia had published a paper on the open selection of leading cadres in the magazine "Moyou Organizational Work".Tang Wandong said that not only that, Minister Qian and Deputy Minister Tuo also made important instructions in front of the paper.Gao Jia is a smart person, and he knew the above trend without even reading the article. He immediately decided to carry out the first batch of pilot work for the public selection of department-level cadres in Lingjiang County within three months. I hope that Director Jia will come to guide . Finally, Jia Shizhen said: "The reform of the cadre and personnel system is imperative. Now we are going to discuss how to legalize the selection and appointment of leading cadres and change the rule of people into the rule of law. , Eight people meet the qualifications through the qualification review, then one must be selected among these eight people in the end. The County Party Committee Organization Department, the County Party Committee Standing Committee, and the County People's Congress are not allowed to discuss any candidates from these eight people." Afterwards, Jia Shizhen asked Wei Xin and Mei Ting whether their appointment documents had been released. Tang Wandong said that they hadn't been issued yet. Jia Shizhen said, "I suggest that the two of them participate in the open selection, fair competition, and everyone is equal before the public election."
