The construction site of the new People's Hospital is in full swing.
The crowd surrounded Deputy Commissioner Zhang and toured the construction site. The person in charge of the construction site took out the drawings from time to time to explain in detail.
The only thing missing from this scene is the reporters carrying cameras, otherwise it would be exactly the same as the one on "News Broadcast".
Dean Gu, as the future head of the new People's Hospital, has visited the construction site many times, but Chen Xia, as the head of the General Affairs Department, is here for the first time.
Fortunately, there was always someone from the General Affairs Department's Infrastructure Team on site to supervise the construction, and that person was Chen Xia's cousin Chen Zijun.
This is a lucrative position. When the new hospital is put into use in the future, he, as a meritorious official, will naturally be rewarded, and the promotion will be a natural thing to do.
Although the hospital's income was not as high as that of pharmaceutical companies, entering the system and becoming a regular employee was still a popular obsession among people in the 1980s.
While several senior leaders were giving orders, Zeng Peinong and Chen Xia were whispering in the background.
Zeng Peinong lowered his voice and said, "Section Chief Chen, I will be your deputy in the future. You must take good care of me."
Chen Xia rolled his eyes at him and said, "Don't test me. It's uncertain who will be the section chief. If it's your brother who takes over, don't make things difficult for me."
Zeng Peinong looked embarrassed and quickly said with a smile, "Even if I were to be the section chief, I wouldn't be able to hold my position securely. Everyone knows that those who come from the Fourth Hospital are all veterans. Look, you're a section chief and I'm a deputy section chief. How can I be the section chief?"
"Alright, alright, let's stop arguing. Whoever becomes the section chief will still have to do the same job. Besides, our opinion doesn't count. Let's make a fuss. The ones in front are the top officials."
Deputy Commissioner Zhang attached great importance to the merger of the two academies. Although he did not achieve much in the work under his charge, there were a lot of things to do.
Teacher salaries, school construction, hospital equipment purchases, and so on—all of these require money. But the finances of the 1980s were not what they are today. A single piece of land could cost tens of millions, and now people are struggling to make ends meet.
The construction of the new People's Hospital is a great political achievement for him. If it is done well, all cadres and citizens in the region will benefit. Then he, as the person in charge, may be able to climb up the ladder, or at the very least, he can adjust the division of labor.
So after returning to the conference room, Deputy Commissioner Zhang began a long speech, emphasizing the significance of the merger of the two houses.
Everyone lowered their heads and pretended to take notes. Chen Xia also spread out his notebook, but kept drawing a pig's head on it.
Just when everyone was about to doze off, the highlight came.
"Comrades, after discussion and research by the Prefectural Party Committee, the list of the People's Hospital Coordination Committee is announced as follows:"
Everyone stopped writing and listened intently. This so-called coordination committee was actually the future leadership of the new hospital. Who would be in charge and who would be out was about to be determined, and the people in the first hospital were the most nervous.
Then I heard Gu Wei start reading the script on the stage:
"Director of the Coordination Committee, Zhang Hongbo."
No one had any objection to the director candidate. After all, this Deputy Commissioner Zhang was just a title to show the leadership's attention.
"Deputy Directors: Mao Yangping, Gu Wei, and Wang Mengqi."
Everyone started to think about it again. Mao Yangping was the director, but also a figurehead. Gu Wei and Wang Mengqi were listed at the same time, which meant that one of them would definitely be the dean and the other a stenographer in the future, at least at the same level.
This level is too high, but it has little to do with everyone, so everyone just listens to it and is not surprised. The focus is the list of members at the end.
"The committee members are Zhu Jihong, Sun Jianshe, Xu Shuangli, Jin Ming, Mei Xue, Qian Jun, Liu Bo, Chen Xia... Wang Shuiliang, Shao Feiyu, and Zeng Peinong."
If it were any other time, the venue would have been filled with noise, but since the regional leaders were all there, everyone appeared calm on the surface, but inwardly they were already in turmoil, especially the several cadres from the First Hospital.
This country has always attached great importance to rankings, and smart people can easily see something strange from the rankings.
For example, in this ranking, several cadres from the Health Bureau are included, and they are basically on secondment. Of course, it is also possible that they will be directly transferred from the Health Bureau to the hospital to occupy a few good positions, but overall there is not much competition.
In the current ranking, the cadres of the Fourth Hospital are all at the front, and the cadres of the First Hospital are all at the back. This means that when departments and positions are determined in the future, all the positions at the level of section chief and director will be held by people from the Fourth Hospital, and people from the First Hospital can only hold deputy positions.
Although this was foreseeable, when it really happened before their eyes, the cadres of the First Hospital still felt it was too cruel and felt very aggrieved.
But what else could he do? As Zeng Peinong had said, Chen Xia was a section chief, while he was only a deputy section chief. How could someone of a lower rank hold a full-time position?
Don't forget that the most taboo thing in officialdom is rank. It is impossible to let people of lower rank lead people of higher rank. Anyone who does this may become the public enemy of all cadres.
So at this conference, everyone's expressions were different.
Gu Wei looked calm and composed. Wang Mengqi might be promoted from deputy director to director in the future. He was in a good mood and had a smile on his face.
The cadres of the Fourth Hospital all had relieved expressions, some were drinking tea, some were taking notes.
The cadres of the First Hospital looked dejected, and some of the less sophisticated ones even had stern expressions.
Chen Xia was thinking that he had only lived a stable life for a few years and now he had to change his job location again, which would cause a lot of trouble.
Living in the dormitory was impossible. He had just visited the staff dormitories, and they were all tube-shaped buildings. Each family could only get one or two rooms, and there were no independent bathrooms and kitchens.
By then, the whole family, young and old, will be squeezed into one room, and it will be difficult to turn over. What's more, Chen Xia and Gu Lin have the glorious and arduous task of having a baby. If they make noises all night long, it will lead Chen Qiu and Chen Dong astray.
This was unbearable for Chen Xia, who was used to living in Meiyuan. So he had to buy a house and transfer his younger siblings to another school. There were so many things to do.
The key question is what to do with the Plum Garden? It has just been renovated, and commuting back and forth every day is too troublesome, but not living there is a waste.
Just when Chen Xia was stunned, he was suddenly bumped on the arm a few times, and then he heard Zeng Peinong say softly:
"Congratulations, Chief Chen, please take good care of me in the future."
"Brother, please take care of me. You're the local boss, and I'm completely clueless..."
Zeng Peinong actually sighed in his heart: So what if he is a local tyrant? He is still suppressed by the dragon from outside the river.
However, Zeng Peinong was not the most disappointed. There were no secrets in the health system. He knew that Chen Xia was not a section chief who would cling to power. When he was in the Fourth Hospital, he let the deputy section chief Yu Hong take charge of the work.
This section chief is so busy that it seems like he is just a section chief on secondment.
