Li Lin looked calm as he looked at Chen Anke and said, "Seniority and ability are two different things. It is not the case that whoever has worked for a long time will be promoted. I think it is time for the government to change its habit of ranking people by seniority. It is because of this bad habit that some outstanding cadres have been suppressed and unable to display their talents for more than ten or twenty years... In other words, if cadres are seeking stability in their respective positions and accumulating seniority, who will reform and innovate? If no one innovates and reforms, how can work progress? Isn't vigorously developing the economy and improving people's livelihood just empty talk?"

Chen Anke and Shen Zhifei were shocked when they heard this, thinking that Li Lin dared to say anything, he was really not afraid of offending people!

You have to know that the veteran township party committee secretaries in Shannan County who are around 50 years old are the main force. Their future was wiped out by Li Lin's words. How can they not be angry and upset?

But it was also a good thing. The more people Li Lin offended, the harder it would be for him to survive in Shannan County. Sooner or later, he would be forced to leave in disgrace.

Chen Anke couldn't help laughing in her heart, thinking that Li Lin was still young and not very cunning.

She said, "County Magistrate Li, isn't what you said unfair to those comrades who have worked diligently for decades? The number of deputy director positions recommended by the county is extremely limited, and they have been waiting in line without complaint. Now you have discouraged them with just one sentence. Isn't this equivalent to killing their work enthusiasm?"

Li Lin knew that she was going to use these clichés to stop him. So he immediately raised his hand to interrupt her and said, "Deputy Secretary Chen, what I just said is just the direction of effort, not a blanket judgment. Rules are dead, but people are alive. If there are not enough recommended places, you can go to the city to apply. I will not treat those comrades who have truly devoted themselves to the work unfairly. What I want to say is that queuing is a bad habit and an excuse to perfunctorily deal with people! If they are really qualified, our county committee can find a way to help them all get the deputy director treatment at once!"

ah?

Solve the deputy director treatment problem at one time?

A fantasy, right?

There are dozens of people in the county who meet the requirements!

Chen Anke and Shen Zhifei were a little bit unbelieving and thought that Li Lin was just bragging.

It is unprecedented to be able to provide two or three deputy director-level level treatment in a year, but dozens... just dream on!

Without waiting for the two to speak.

Li Lin continued, "Besides, if Comrade Yang Ping is recommended, it will also occupy the promotion quota of the Municipal Party Committee, and our county will not suffer any loss. As for who you said would have objections, haha, I think it is purely taking advantage of the issue and making trouble! In the future, keep all such unreasonable opinions to yourself and don't let them reach my ears!"

Chen Anke and Shen Zhifei immediately shut up and stopped quibbling. They had a lot of plans. They wanted to argue about Yang Ping's matter. On the surface, they wanted to fight for the interests of the old comrades, but in fact they wanted to use this incident to arouse more people's dissatisfaction with Li Lin.

Unexpectedly, Li Lin saw through it and resolved it with just one sentence: "Promote them all."

However, once you make big promises, you have to find ways to implement them. Otherwise, those old comrades who are waiting to enjoy the treatment of deputy directors will gradually lose their patience, and their gratitude will turn into dissatisfaction.

Li Lin had a plan in mind for this matter. He would go to the provincial party committee to meet with Minister Chang and lobby for help. Even if the problem could not be solved all at once, implementing it over two or three years would be much better than waiting in line now.

The next morning, the Municipal Party Committee held a meeting to promote the Shannan County Ancient City Project.

Li Lin and Chen Siyuan attended the meeting.

Guo Xuecai presided over the meeting personally and all members of the municipal government team were present, highlighting the importance of this meeting.

At the beginning of the meeting, Yang Wanquan read the document issued by the provincial government on restarting the Shannan County Ancient City Project and put forward three requirements.

After he finished speaking, Guo Xuecai made a summary speech, "Comrades, the superiors of the Shannan County Ancient City Project are pressing hard, and we can't delay it any longer... We must learn from the last corruption incident of the evaluation committee and ensure that the bidding process is open and transparent..."

The bride wears old pants, still an old set of content...

Everyone present seemed to be listening and taking notes attentively, but their minds were somewhere else.

After reading the manuscript, Guo Xuecai said "adjournment" in a domineering manner and turned to leave the venue.

Throughout the whole process, he smiled at everyone except Li Lin.

Li Lin knew clearly in his mind that Secretary Guo had demonstrated profoundly what it meant to change one's attitude faster than turning the pages of a book.

He was very polite and respectful to Li Lin yesterday...but after the matter was settled, he turned around and didn't recognize him anymore.

This also confirmed Li Lin's guess that Guo Xuecai was just a snob.

To be honest, it is said that women are petty and dare not offend them easily, but Secretary Guo is not even as good as a woman!

The pattern is too small!

After all, he had been mentally prepared. Li Lin's return to Shannan was not due to pressure from Guo Xuecai, but was purely voluntary. He didn't care whether he turned against him or not.

If you speak nicely, we will speak nicely. If you don’t speak nicely, you will suffer in the future.

Is Guo Xuecai just trying to make things difficult for Li Lin?

Wait until Guo Xuecai left.

Yang Wanquan winked at Li Lin and said, "Come on, go to my room and sit for a while."

Li Lin smiled and nodded, then stood up and followed him.

When they arrived at Yang Wanquan's office, the secretary poured Li Lin a cup of tea and the two sat down face to face.

Yang Wanquan knew that Li Lin didn't smoke, so he didn't let him. He lit up a cigarette and took two puffs. He smiled at Li Lin and said, "Xiao Lin, the ancient city project is going to be restarted. Do you have any ideas?"

Before Qian Lingyun left, the ancient city project was led by Qian Lingyun and Li Lin was in charge of the specific matters. Yang Wanquan did not participate, so he had no idea about the progress of the project and the problems that existed in it. He wanted to take this opportunity to listen to Li Lin's explanation.
