Chapter 1242: Convening a Parliament and Reforming the Official System

Anxing is the main star of Xingguo.

In the northern hemisphere of Anxing, there is a huge city called Ancheng, which is the core of the Xingguo government.

Parliament, Secretariat, departments, and a large number of new institutions exclusive to Star Country.

In the past fifty years, there have been no major changes in these places. Officials have been doing their work normally, and promotions and appointments have been carried out in accordance with procedures.

But no matter how the changes are made, they are all middle and lower-level officials, while high-level officials have hardly changed, with only occasional promotions.

This is because all senior officials are promoted or directly appointed by Chen An, and the parliament and the secretariat dare not make any changes.

But today is different.

The parliament hall was filled with members of various races, most of whom had strange expressions and were uneasy.

"I heard that the system is going to be changed, but I don't know how it will be changed?"

"Oh, please don't change it. It's finally stable."

For today's parliamentarians, they have almost reached the top and it is difficult to break through to higher power. After all, the road ahead is blocked by Chen An's rules.

That being the case, they want to maintain the status quo and do not want any changes.

Not only ordinary MPs think so, senior MPs do too.

Senior councillors include department heads, commanders of military vessels and regiments, and mid-level and above secretaries in the Secretariat.

"Old Yang, you are close to the boss, do you have any news?" Xiao Zhen asked.

Yang Yuan said: "Why are you so anxious? No matter who replaces you, it is impossible to replace you."

Xiao Zhen said helplessly, "I got a piece of news. The reason the boss wants to change the system is because some governors are causing trouble. Times have changed. When we were on the train, the boss didn't care whether we stayed in the same position for a long time. But now that Star Country has been established, if officials stay in the same position for a long time, they will easily cultivate their own power and affect the stability of Star Country. Those governors are like this."

A steady voice came from the side: "Change it if you want. I want to go to the fertility department. I heard that you can come into contact with many little lives there. It's very interesting."

The one who spoke was Yu Guan.

Xiao Zhen said: "I am different from you. I am very good at commanding the fleet. If I change to other positions, it will take a lot of time to adapt. I am worried!"

His eyes suddenly lit up and he saw a large group of dazzling women coming in through the door.

Others also noticed it, and the discussion immediately subsided, and they all stood up to greet him.

The person who came was an official from the secretariat. Everyone knew the importance of the secretariat and dared not offend them.

Xiao Zhen immediately went to meet him.

"Sister Chu, what does the boss mean? What should I do?"

Chu Xiao looked around first, then said, "The military won't change. You're here to help with ideas or vote."

"I see. I was scared to death."

Chu Xiao asked, "What are you afraid of? It's not easy for Chen An to train commanders, so how can he easily replace you? But you should also pay more attention. No one is so important that they cannot be replaced. It all depends on whether they can create value. Go back and tell your commanders to do their work well and stop daydreaming."

"Yeah, I get it. Oh, Sister Zhu is getting prettier."

Zhu Die also came from the door with a group of people, frowning and nodding casually.

"Sister Chu, what's wrong with her?"

Chu Xiao whispered, "She gave the green light to the Dark Witch Clan on some policies, and was just reprimanded by Chen An."

Xiao Zhen was shocked: "Will the boss blame you too?"

"Just don't cross the line. Zhu Die didn't do a good job this time."

After Xiao Zhen left, Chu Xiao muttered to herself, "Chen An wasn't angry about giving the Dark Witch Clan the green light, only because Zhu Die didn't tell him. In fact, he has already taken good care of the Dark Witch Clan."

The tens of thousands of people at the scene gradually divided into various camps.

Even though Chen An has been avoiding the emergence of internal camps, it is still unavoidable. After all, wherever there is power, there will be cooperation and exclusion.

There are company camps, guild camps, and department camps, and each department is further divided into different levels of structure.

After most people arrived, Chu Xiao announced that the meeting was about to begin.

The parliament site is mainly divided into three parts. The first is the circular platform in the center, with many stepped seats distributed in a ring. Secretariat officials sit in the circular seats, and Chen An's seat is at the core of the circular platform.

The second is the three circles of purple seats outside the round table, representing senior parliamentarians.

Outside are seats for ordinary members of parliament. There are no identification marks and you can sit anywhere.

About ten minutes later, Chen An suddenly appeared without any warning.

The noise at the scene stopped abruptly and everyone stood up and saluted.

Chen An looked very busy and said, "Everyone, please sit down. This is my first time attending the parliament. Just follow the procedures. If there are any problems, I will stop you."

Chu Xiao immediately announced the start of the meeting, starting with a brief opening speech and then stating the issues that needed to be discussed today.

There is only one problem, official system reform.

The content was presented by Zhu Die, and the copy had been prepared long ago.

"...According to the instructions of Chen An, the Chief Speaker and Train Conductor of the Fuyao Star Nation, a new assessment system will be implemented for officials at all levels. Whether they are administrative officials or ministerial-level officials, they will all be subject to regular assessments, and those who fail to meet the standards will be replaced. In other words, from now on, except for special positions, all others can be replaced or re-elected..."

"Special positions include: mid-level and above secretariat officials, commanders of military fleets and above, heads of special departments such as the military's science and technology department and finance department, guild presidents, and company officials. This means that the appointment, dismissal, or retention of any of the above positions requires the train conductor's approval; decisions made by the council or secretariat are invalid."

Chen An would delegate power and let most official positions be decided by parliament.

But we will definitely hold on to the key positions and not let them do whatever they want.

As for the guilds and companies, they were not under Chen An's jurisdiction, so they were left to do as they pleased.

Zhu Die continued, "The assessment content has been set and is available for you to review at any time. According to regulations, ministers are assessed every twenty years, vice-ministers every fifteen years, and other positions are recommended internally accordingly. The ministers previously nominated individually will also be assessed, but regardless of whether they pass or fail, the final decision will be made by the train conductor. The rest of the ministers' stays or departures will be decided by the council. In addition, council members are re-elected every four years, and this is not limited to the highest positions. For example, if a guild wants to nominate a council member, it is no longer limited to the president, but can also be the vice-president or other members."

"Today's parliament also has another purpose, which is to make on-site adjustments to certain officials. These matters require the Speaker to make decisions." Zhu Die handed the right to speak to Chen An.

Chen An was silent for a moment before he said, "I've received a lot of feedback and studied a lot of people's information, so I've made some adjustments to the positions of some officials. Su Jiang, you'll resign as the head of the Guild Management Department and become the head of the Supervision Department. Xie Mu, you'll resign as the head of the Supervision Department and manage the Ministry of Culture. As for the Minister of Culture, you'll be demoted to Deputy Minister. I'm very dissatisfied with your performance over the years. I'll see how you perform in the future..."
