Wang Yanshu sighed slightly, his expression showing a bit of helplessness, and said, "What's the point of taking a high position? After Kuang Tieying went to Xinjiang to help, the position of full-time deputy secretary has been vacant. At first, they planned to let me take over, but I declined at that time. But two days ago, the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department talked to me again. This time it was the executive deputy minister who came, and his tone was so firm that I had to take over this position."
I nodded slightly, looking thoughtful, and replied, "This is reasonable and not surprising."
She reached out her hand and gently patted the back of my hand, with a bit of reproach in her eyes, and said, "You, have you become dull because of all the drinking and partying? If I take on the post of deputy secretary, there will be a chain reaction among the standing committee members."
I was puzzled and frowned as I asked, "What does this have to do with me? Are you trying to say that Tian Zhenyu will go further?"
She looked at me with sharp eyes and asked, "How can it have nothing to do with you? Have you forgotten how I became a member of the Standing Committee? It was when I was the director of the Development Zone Management Committee. How can you be willing to lag behind Tian Zhenyu step by step?"
I looked at her with a firm gaze and said, "Sister, to be honest, I have considered this step. But times have changed. It's probably not realistic to go straight from being the director of the management committee to becoming a standing committee member."
Her eyes were full of expectation and encouragement, and she said in a firm tone: "Brother, everything depends on your efforts. Your biggest advantage now is that you are young, and you have Secretary Liu's strong support behind you. However, you have to make up for several shortcomings now. First of all, your work performance must be higher. That's why I said that you have wasted most of the past six months, which is simply self-destructive. You must act immediately, do a few things in the development zone that will make your eyes shine, and show real and solid work results, so as to shut up those opponents. Secondly, your current academic qualifications are no longer an advantage. Nowadays, there are a lot of graduate students in the Party School, but you still don't have a science degree. My suggestion is that you should prepare quickly and strive to be admitted as an in-service graduate student within the year to make up for this shortcoming. Finally, you have to work hard in evaluating excellence and innovation. Try to strive for a model worker or a national medal at the municipal level, preferably at the provincial level. If you have done all these, you will definitely have the upper hand in the matter of promotion."
I looked embarrassed and said hesitantly, "I'm afraid it's too late. You're going to be transferred soon, how can you wait for me to take the vacant position?"
The corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a meaningful smile, and she said: "If you don't act now, you will never take action. To tell you the truth, this time Liu Xiuwen will most likely fill the position of executive deputy county magistrate. In the fight for the position of standing committee deputy county magistrate, the competition between Tian Zhenyu and Deputy County Magistrate Hu has reached a white-hot level. Both of them have complicated backgrounds, and now they are deadlocked. As the saying goes, 'When the snipe and the clam quarrel, the fisherman gains.' The more intense the fight, the harder it will be to determine the candidate for this position early, which will create an opportunity for you."
After I heard this, my eyes lit up instantly, and my whole spirit was lifted. I said, "I have heard some related things, but I didn't expect the competition to be so fierce."
Wang Yanshu continued, "Think about it carefully. If you were like us, and followed the routine to become a deputy county chief first, and then compete for the standing committee, it would be both time-consuming and laborious. But if you..."
Before she could finish her words, her cell phone suddenly rang. She looked at me apologetically, then walked to the window, turned her back to me, and answered the phone in a soft voice.
What she said just now was like a ray of strong light, instantly dispelling the confusion in my heart. Yes, this is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, it just depends on whether I can seize it.
After hanging up the phone, she walked to the sofa with a smile on her face and sat down. She raised her eyebrows and looked at me: "Guess who called?"
I said without hesitation: "Secretary Liu."
The corners of her mouth that were originally raised froze instantly, and a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes: "How did you know?"
I crossed my arms and said, "Who else but the leader can make you avoid others and answer the phone? In the county, the only person who can make you so polite is probably Secretary Liu."
After listening to my analysis, she not only did not praise me, but the surprise on her face became more and more obvious: "Is my current performance so obvious?"
I couldn't help but chuckle, "Sister, what do you think? Do you still think you are the elder sister who was kind and amiable to everyone? Now your authority is increasing day by day."
When she heard what I said, her expression darkened and she sighed, "It turns out that bureaucracy has grown unknowingly amid your flattery and obedience."
"Fortunately, you still know how to reflect on yourself, so you are not hopeless," I comforted him.
She sat up straight, her expression becoming serious: "You know, Secretary Liu just told you to be well prepared. I will do my best to support you in this competition for the Standing Committee."
I felt warm in my heart. Liu Keji held a high position of power in the county, and his support was of great importance.
I glanced at the clock on the wall and said, "Sister, it's almost time for dinner. The development zone is short of funds, so we can't arrange a dinner for the leaders. If there is nothing else, do you think..."
Her face darkened, and she said with some displeasure: "Guan Hongjun, you are not qualified to drive me away. This development zone was developed by me all those years ago!"
"Sister, I'm not trying to drive you away. Don't you always tell me to seize the day? I want to get to work while my mind is clear," I explained.
Her expression softened, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. "That's good enough. Okay, I won't bother you anymore. I just appreciate the way you work seriously. I've explained everything I need to explain, and now it's up to you."
I stood up and prepared to walk her downstairs, but she stretched out her hand to stop me: "Don't do it, just go do your thing."
After seeing her off, I returned to my desk and fell into deep thought. After repeated consideration, I took out my notebook and started writing and drawing on it. The densely packed words gradually outlined my ideas and direction for the work.
Next, I turned on my computer and started drafting a request report. The report revolves around the goal of successfully upgrading the county economic development zone from municipal level to provincial level within two years. At the same time, it emphasizes accelerating the deep integration of industry, academia and research, actively cooperating with the development strategy of the automotive parts industry belt, and creating a modern economic and technological development zone driven by technological research and development and with economic development as its core task.
This work could originally be assigned to the office's text integrator. However, when they write materials, their horizons are not broad enough, and they are full of official jargon, which seriously affects the quality of the materials. As a leader, you still have to do some writing work yourself. This is not only a process of sorting out the work, but also an opportunity to learn, think and practice.
I completely forgot about time when I was so absorbed in my work. It was not until Xiong Jifei walked into the office carrying the food from the cafeteria that I realized that lunch time had already passed.
After finishing my meal, I looked at the results of my work and stretched myself lazily with satisfaction. My tense nerves finally relaxed.
I looked at Xiong Jifei who was waiting on the side and said, "Director Xiong, this is a questionnaire topic I drafted. Ask Xiao Liu to sort it out and print 50 copies. Distribute them to various enterprises in the development zone and collect their opinions."
Xiong Jifei agreed without hesitation and took the manuscript paper I handed to him with both hands.
As soon as I left the office, Tao Xinlei, deputy director of the Development Zone Management Committee, walked in and said, "Director Guan, we have arranged a drinking party tonight to entertain Deputy County Mayor Hu. Would you like to join us?"
I shook my head and responded, "I haven't finished my work yet, please entertain them properly for me. Please be generous and decent and don't bring shame to the development zone."
Tao Xinlei looked embarrassed: "Director Guan, I think it would be more appropriate for you to come in person. Deputy County Magistrate Hu is in charge of industry and has frequent work contacts with our development zone. I am worried that as the deputy director, I am not important enough and cannot entertain you well enough."
I said firmly, "Lao Tao, remember one thing, every staff member of our development zone can represent the development zone and me. There is no question of whether the weight is enough." After thinking for a moment, I continued, "How about this, I will try my best to coordinate the time to participate, so as not to make it too difficult for you."
After hearing this, Tao Xinlei showed a happy smile on his face: "Okay!"
As soon as 놛 left, Xiong Jifei hurried into the office again: "Director, I just asked Xiao Liu to organize and print out the questionnaire. 놛 made a suggestion, I don't know if it is feasible."
I raised my head and looked at 놛: "Tell me about it."
Xiong Jifei said: "Xiao Liu suggested that the questionnaire be sent to each enterprise through the OA system of the information center. This can not only reduce the trouble of running errands, reduce the time cost of the enterprise, but also save printing costs."
After hearing this, I couldn't help but slam the table. Xiong Jifei was startled and thought I was angry.
I explained with a smile: "It is said that true insights come from the grassroots, and there are always more solutions than problems. Xiao Liu's suggestion is very good! You praised me, which shows that you think carefully when you work and are sincerely working for the development zone. Teacher Qian has been gone for more than half a year, and the function of the information center has not been fully utilized. Isn't this the time for it to play a role?"
Xiong Jifei said sincerely: "Director, working under you is a happy experience even if it is hard. We all feel motivated to work with you."
After hearing these words, a warm feeling welled up in my heart. I waved my hand and said with a smile, "Go and do your work, don't just think about flattering me."
Xiong Jifei walked out happily with a smile on his face.
