Chapter 133: Deputy Section (Part 1)
On May 13, the provincial TV station held a meeting of the Party Committee of Haizhou TV Station. Liu Tai said with a smile:
"Reporter Xiaoyue really brought us honor. At the Propaganda Department's press conference yesterday, Minister Liu specifically praised her. Afterwards, all the leaders in charge and the newspaper's leaders expressed their praise. Governor Li also expressed his gratitude to us on behalf of the Gulin Municipal Party Committee and Government."
After hearing this, everyone smiled.
Liu Tai continued with a smile, "Today's meeting is held to convey the Propaganda Department's requirements and instructions to 'enhance the communication, guidance and influence of new media.' In accordance with the Propaganda Department's requirements, our news center will establish a 'New Media Reporting Department.' This department will be staffed by one director and three deputy directors, with a tentative staff of 120. Responsibilities will include operating new media accounts, reviewing short videos, reviewing images and text, and developing topic selection."
After he finished speaking, everyone's faces were expressionless. This new media reporting department had been in the works for a long time, so its finalization was not surprising.
"One director and three deputy directors were recruited through an open internal recruitment process within the TV station. Of the department's 120 staff, 80 were recruited internally and 40 were recruited from the public. The recruitment method was a combination of station-wide and group-wide recruitment."
Upon hearing this news, many people's eyes flashed with strange light.
On the surface, it's an 'open recruitment', but doesn't the power to choose who to appoint and who not to appoint still lie in the hands of Director Liu? At most, Editor-in-Chief Zhou and Director Xu have the right to make recommendations.
Unless someone goes outside the TV station and finds someone to contact the Propaganda Department, otherwise, Liu Tai has the greatest power.
The director of the interview department is at the section level and the deputy director is at the deputy section level. Although their ranks are not high, they can still attract countless people.
After the meeting, at 2 p.m. that day, the relevant notices regarding the establishment of the new media interview department and internal recruitment were sent to the OA system, which caused heated discussions throughout the station.
Unlike civil service organizations, where internal turnover is slow, many reporters spend their entire lives in technical positions. This internal recruitment is a perfect opportunity to transition to a management position!
Jiang Ningyue naturally also saw this notice.
[Announcement of Internal Selection and Recruitment for the News Center's New Media Coverage Department: The New Media Coverage Department is recruiting one Director (Level 7 Management Position/Section-level), three Deputy Directors (Level 8 Management Positions/Deputy Section-level), and 80 additional positions in various roles, including reporters, editors, hosts, post-production staff, and technicians.]
[Basic requirements: 1. Have... nationality; 2. Abide by... laws and support... leadership;...]
[Management position requirements: 1. Have a deep understanding of new media and a deep grasp of the new situation of new media;
2. On-the-job personnel or those employed by the Taiwan government;
3. Applicants with more than four years of work experience and outstanding contributions may be promoted exceptionally;
4. Applicants for the director position must have at least three years of work experience in a Level 8 management position (deputy director) in a news-related department;
5. Applicants with outstanding achievements in the field of new media will be given priority;
6. Priority will be given to those who have made outstanding contributions or have a huge positive social impact in major events;
Jiang Ningyue took a quick look and reported her name.
The notice was issued on the 13th, and the director will be selected on the 15th, and the deputy director will be selected on the 17th.
People's hearts were in turmoil during this period. Jiang Ningyue clearly felt that many of her colleagues had no intention of working, but Tian Jun was the only one who sat back and did not even think about promotion.
This old man doesn't even want to apply for the associate senior professional title, and is preparing to get the intermediate professional title until the end.
Of course, not every time you sign up you will get an interview opportunity. There are more than 2,000 employees in Taiwan, and at least 1,000 of them want to be leaders. Is it possible to interview them all?
In the end, no more than 9 people were qualified for the interview.
At 2 p.m. on the 16th, the Human Resources Department notified Jiang Ningyue to participate in the internal recruitment interview the next day.
At 10 a.m. on the 17th, Jiang Ningyue came to the conference room on the 18th floor, where the leaders of the Party Committee and the News Center sat in a row. Jiang Ningyue lay down on the chair, as if she had returned to the scene when she had just started working last year.
Editor-in-Chief Zhou asked, "Xiaoyue, please tell me what shortcomings and problems we still have in Taiwan's new media work at this stage."
Jiang Ningyue nodded and said, "Leaders, as of yesterday, our station has released over 3,000 videos on various platforms, including a lot of high-quality news that citizens love to watch. However, there is a problem with many of these news stories. These videos are not designed specifically for new media platforms. They are simply TV news copied and pasted onto new media platforms. They don't take into account the user habits of new media platform users at all. While the video content is comprehensive, it can also be verbose..."
After hearing Jiang Ningyue's endless narration, Chief Editor Zhou and Liu Tai looked at each other and nodded slightly.
Just as Jiang Ningyue guessed, this time Jiang Ningyue's position has been decided.
It has something to do with Governor Li, but Jiang Ningyue's personal abilities also fully meet the criteria for exceptional promotion.
Director Jia Feng quietly glanced at the expressions of Liu Tai and Mr. Zhou, and a rough idea came to his mind. It seemed that Jiang Ningyue had a sure win this time.
Normally, a new employee can be promoted to officer only after four years of employment, but Jiang Ningyue has been promoted to deputy section chief after only seven months?
Jia Feng suppressed the urge to complain, but ultimately managed to hold back and remained silent.
Whatever I said in the meeting before was all for work, but if I openly spoke now, I would be making an enemy.
Anyway, my words won't determine the final outcome, so I might as well shut up.
On the morning of May 20, the office suddenly received a call saying that the provincial television station’s affiliated party committee, that is, the Provincial Party Committee Propaganda Department, was coming to inspect personnel.
Director Chen walked into the office, glanced at Jiang Ningyue, and said with a smile, "Xiaoyue, the Provincial Party Committee Propaganda Department is coming to conduct a personnel inspection. Please prepare."
Hearing this, everyone in the office looked at Jiang Ningyue.
How could anyone not understand why the deputy director of the New Media Interview Department had fallen to Jiang Ningyue? Many colleagues were also very surprised. How could she be promoted to deputy section chief after only a few months of work?
It's not that surprising. Level 8 positions, which are level 4 chief clerks in civil service, are not uncommon in provincial institutions. Basically, as the years of service and professional titles are evaluated, one can be "promoted", but most of them are professional and technical positions.
However, Jiang Ningyue's behavior was indeed surprising.
A colleague couldn't help but exclaimed, "Xiaoyue, you're not even an assistant reporter, are you?"
Jiang Ningyue was about to respond with a smile when Zhou Jing said, "He's in a management position, what kind of title does he need?"
The colleague immediately stopped talking. She was just surprised and had no objection to Jiang Ningyue becoming the deputy director.
What's more, her opinions are useless!
Jiang Ningyue actually had an idea in her mind a long time ago, but when she heard the news, her heart was inevitably rippled.
Fortunately, I have a "strong heart", otherwise I would have made a fool of myself in the office.
People from the Propaganda Department arrived, led by the deputy director of the Cadre Department of the Propaganda Department. Although Jiang Ningyue didn't know him, he was smiling and very friendly.
The Personnel Department is responsible for the appointment, removal, assessment and approval of major leading cadres in important positions in the provincial propaganda and cultural system and important public opinion departments that are not under the management of the Provincial Party Committee.
Simply put, Jiang Ningyue, a deputy section chief, was not yet in a position where the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department had to intervene.
The inspection started according to the procedure. First, a meeting was held where the director explained the purpose of the trip and read out the work procedures and disciplines.
Everyone was surprised to find that in addition to Jiang Ningyue, Nian Sisi was also under investigation!
