The news that Li Lin was selected as one of the top ten outstanding young people in provincial and municipal government agencies was published in the provincial newspaper and sent to various places. Almost at the same time, all government agencies in the province got to know this 26-year-old deputy division-level cadre.
The next day after the selection results came out, early in the morning, Yuan Qingjiang ran excitedly to Qian Lingyun's office with a newspaper and reported the good news to him.
At that time, Qian Lingyun was holding his mobile phone, scrolling through the scenes of the selection over and over again. Many media outlets took pictures of Li Lin, and the most eye-catching one was the moment when Secretary Wang Jin handed the crystal trophy to Li Lin.
"Mayor Qian, great news. This kid Li Lin has been selected, and Secretary Wang Jin personally presented the award to him. This is an honor for our Pingyang City. Look at what the newspapers say, Pingyang City's young cadre Li Lin... our Pingyang has become famous, hahaha..." Yuan Qingjiang smiled from ear to ear, and it was obvious that he was really happy for Li Lin.
Qian Lingyun put down his phone and said with a smile, "I already knew about it. In fact, I knew about it last night, but it was only broadcast on the news this morning. I have been sitting here watching related videos for more than half an hour. Well done to Xiaolin. Although I am confident that he can be elected, I didn't expect Secretary Wang Jin to personally present him with the award. Our Pingyang has really made a name for itself this time. When he comes back, we will organize a welcome party, gather the young cadres of our municipal government together, and have a dinner to celebrate."
Yuan Qingjiang smiled and said, "I just came to ask for your opinion. Li Lin has won honor for our Pingyang. It is time for the young cadres of the organization to learn from him. I was still considering what form... The dinner is a good form, serious and lively. Okay, I will arrange it today. I will report to you after the time and place are determined."
Qian Lingyun smiled and nodded, feeling very satisfied with Yuan Qingjiang's thoughtful consideration.
Lu Hui walked in and poured a glass of water for Qian Lingyun. When he was about to pour water for Yuan Qingjiang, Yuan Qingjiang waved at him and said, "No more, I'm going out right away."
After Yuan Qingjiang left, Qian Lingyun still couldn't hold back his excitement. He looked at Li Lin's photo on his phone with a smile and couldn't help but say to Lu Hui, "Xiaohui, we haven't had a provincial-level outstanding youth in Pingyang for many years. This time, Xiaolin has made Pingyang proud. As his junior, you should learn more from him. I hope that all our young cadres in Pingyang can be as outstanding as Xiaolin..."
Lu Hui smiled modestly, but he felt very uncomfortable. He stood in front of Qian Lingyun and lowered his head unconsciously.
He thought, I am obviously the same age as Li Lin, so I can't be considered his junior... What does Mayor Qian mean by this? In his heart, am I really not as good as Li Lin?
The frustration in his heart suddenly surged up, and he secretly swore that one day he would rely on his own efforts to leave Li Lin far behind...
Peng Yutao kept flipping through his phone. Last night, he heard that Li Lin won the award and Secretary Wang personally presented him with the award. He was so shocked that he didn't say anything for a long time. This morning, he couldn't help but flip through the news about Li Lin's award...
His new secretary Jin Xiaoye walked in with a thick stack of documents. When he saw Peng Yutao looking through his phone with a worried look on his face, he thought that some big news incident had happened in Pingyang again, and asked quickly, "Secretary Peng, what happened again?"
Peng Yutao put down his phone, rubbed his brows, sneered, shook his head, and said, "It's okay... I just misjudged him. I didn't expect Li Lin to have such strong stamina and be named an outstanding youth... Secretary Wang even personally presented him with the award... It's really unexpected."
When Jin Xiaoye heard about this, he smiled and said, "You are talking about this matter. Several people in our office gathered together to discuss it this morning. I heard that Director Li Lin's sister is the deputy director of the Provincial Party Committee's Organization Department. It is said that his sister helped him get the position. Otherwise, how come Pingyang has not been selected for many years, how come it went so smoothly this time? It's hard not to think too much."
He started working a few years earlier than Wei Haiyang and Li Lin and had experience as a secretary. He knew what the leaders wanted to hear and what they liked to hear. As soon as he saw Peng Yutao's expression, he knew that he was not happy about Li Lin winning the award, so without thinking much, he threw out some negative comments about Li Lin, hoping to cater to Peng Yutao's wishes.
Sure enough, Peng Yutao laughed when he heard this, and tentatively asked Jin Xiaoye, "Is this really what the comrades in the office are talking about?"
Jin Xiaoye smiled and nodded, saying, "Other people may not know, but the offices of our Municipal Party Committee Office are all discussing this. I think there should be a lot of such voices in the government."
"Oh? Why are you so sure?" Peng Yutao asked Jin Xiaoye with interest.
Jin Xiaoye scratched his head and smiled, saying casually, "Director Li Lin is so powerful that he almost overshadows all the young cadres in his batch. They have also worked diligently for the municipal party committee and government for many years, but have never received any commendations. Hehe, they were even overshadowed by a township cadre. They must be dissatisfied... That's what I think."
Peng Yutao suddenly came to his senses, nodded thoughtfully, and said, "Comrades are right to think this way. After all, we all eat from the same bowl of rice, and we all contribute silently in different positions. No one works less than anyone else... I think our municipal party committee and government should also take advantage of the provincial selection to hold an outstanding youth selection. We can set up more quotas to give substantive encouragement to young cadres and stimulate their enthusiasm for work and entrepreneurship."
Jin Xiaoye smiled and nodded, "Secretary is right. In this way, the young cadres of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government will definitely be grateful to you, Secretary, and work harder in the future."
"Haha, what I want is not their personal gratitude. All the honors are bestowed by the Party and the people. I am at best just an organizer and a representative." Although he said this, Peng Yutao was very happy in his heart. Of course, he wanted all the cadres to remember his kindness. Although this was just a kind of vanity, which leader could refuse?
Just imagine, as the secretary of the municipal party committee, he is walking in the municipal party committee compound. All the cadres are full of complaints when they see him, and some even curse him behind his back. How can he feel good?
Organizing an event and personally commending outstanding cadres not only demonstrates his authority and appeal, but also inspires the gratitude of his comrades. Who should he be grateful to? Of course, he should be grateful to the initiator of the event, the municipal party secretary!
This will enhance your own reputation, so why not do it?
After thinking for a while, Peng Yutao said, "The provincial selection has expanded its scale this time. I think our city should also expand its scale this time, let the six counties and seven districts participate, and make it a bigger event. I will present the awards in person then!"
"Well, I'm going to draft an event notice." Jin Xiaoye said with a smile.
He was looking forward to it very much. As Peng Yutao's secretary, he should have a great advantage in the selection of the top ten outstanding young people organized by the Municipal Party Committee. If he couldn't show his face in the province, it would be good to show his face in the city.
If Li Lin hadn't suddenly appeared, he wouldn't have squeezed out his provincial candidate's spot...
