Rebirth: 1977

The conference room suddenly fell silent. Everyone stared at Yuan Shikang with wide eyes, waiting for his follow-up "but".

No wonder these leaders are so serious about this matter, and each of them has made the heroic act of "promoting the talented regardless of relationship".

The truth is that there are only a few important positions in the leadership team, and each person has his own job. Now that a new "development zone" has been set up, this reform move is definitely a first.

But Yuan Shikang was actually using the "imperial sword" to do this, which showed that the higher-ups were supportive.

Jiangnan Province is now ahead of the rest of the country.

Since it is a reform, there will always be a sequence. As long as there is support from above, new policies will be implemented.

Without talking about far places, let’s take Pengcheng as an example, it is the best example.

How many people were optimistic that a small fishing village could develop?

But the country has provided so many special policies to support it, so what’s the situation now?

A provincial city has sprung up!

Therefore, the key is that as long as it is proposed and supported by the higher-ups, they just need to implement it seriously.

No one raised any objection in this matter.

Here comes the problem. Each official position is assigned to a specific position, but now there are suddenly so many more positions, new areas!

The new leadership team will not affect the leaders of other regions.

With such a good opportunity to promote your subordinates, it would be abnormal if you don't fight like a jealous chicken.

When Ye Tianshui was discussing the leadership team of the "Development Zone" with Yuan Shikang, he only raised a principled issue.

All decision-making power in this newly established district must be in the hands of Yuan Cheng and Guo Kang.

If anyone in the provincial leadership team resists the idea that a district mayor cannot concurrently serve as district party secretary, then the position of district party secretary will be vacant for me!

He also considered that if Yuan Cheng and Guo Kang jumped to the position of district party secretary all at once, they would encounter resistance.

However, if an experienced district party secretary is placed above the district mayor, it will definitely hinder the young district mayor from doing his job.

One reason is that seniority is a common practice in official circles, and officials generally show more respect to "old leaders".

If they bring out the 'old faces' to issue orders, lower-level leading cadres cannot object.

Another is the collision of thoughts and ideas between the two generations.

The ideas of senior leaders have become solidified, and they are not easily receptive to new ideas and concepts.

Ye Tianshui did not simply make his suggestion in order to promote Yuan Chengguo.

It was just because he and Yuan Chengguo had the same bold idea, and they both had a sense of sharpness and vigor.

Once his order is given, the two of them will carry it out unconditionally.

This is the tacit understanding and trust they developed during their four years of college life.

Yuan Shikang: "However, the appointment of the district chief cannot be changed, that is, Yuan Cheng and Guo Kang.

This is the person designated by the higher-ups.”

His tone was cautious and serious, and he did not feel righteous because one of the candidates was his son.

The confidence was given to him by Ye Tianshui and his son.

He was well aware of his son's abilities, and to be honest, he was not worried at all about letting Yuan Cheng serve as a district chief.

He didn't know much about Guokang, but since Ye Tianshui dared to use it, he must have that ability.

Besides, it was he who personally led the leading group composed of provincial leaders at all levels who were selected and directly managed the two districts.

If problems are discovered, they can be dealt with in a timely manner.

We cannot expect young cadres to never make any mistakes. Which leader didn’t grow up through trial and error?

"Governor, is there no room for negotiation? Don't our provincial leaders even have a say in appointing a district head?"

A leader makes an opinion.

He was the one who made the loudest noise just now, saying that he had an ideal candidate to recommend.

Yuan Shikang looked at him seriously and knew in his heart that it was rare to find a leading cadre who had no selfish motives.

He admitted that he was just a mortal and also had certain selfish desires.

Of course, we cannot be too harsh on the leading cadres below.

“The establishment of new ‘development zones’ was originally proposed by the higher authorities, and they certainly have the right to designate people in charge.

Also, since everyone thinks that the two of them are not qualified to serve as district party secretaries, then this position will be retained for the time being.

When everyone recognizes their abilities, we will issue the appointment letter then."

"What? Not serving as the district party secretary? Are you going to let two young people have the final say?"

"That's right. Without an experienced leader to help them keep an eye on things, who will be held responsible if something goes wrong?"

"There has never been such a precedent. Governor Yuan, we must be responsible for our young cadres!"

Questioning voices arose one after another.

"I'm responsible!"

Yuan Shikang's few powerful words immediately silenced all the discussions.

The provincial leadership group consisted of five people, including Sun Guoxi, the director of the Yuanping City National Cotton Mill, who later went to Jiangnan Province to take over as director of Yuan Shikang's Industrial Bureau.

After knowing that Ye Tianshui had arrived in Pingcheng, Yuan Shikang called him to confirm the time of his arrival in Pingcheng.

"Mr. Ye, I will bring the newly formed provincial leadership team to Pingcheng on the 15th of this month. Is that okay with you?"

Ye Tianshui thought that the hotel would open on the 19th, and Yuan Shikang and his party would be able to catch up.

"Of course, I'll wait for you in Pingcheng.

Governor Yuan, the 19th is the opening day of my hotel, and I would like to invite you and the leaders of the leadership team to come and show your support."

Ye Tianshui saw that Yuan Shikang called him "Mr. Ye", which was in accordance with official etiquette, so it was inconvenient for him to call him "Uncle Yuan".

Once you enter the officialdom, you should abide by the proper etiquette and rules of the officialdom.

"Congratulations! I never thought we would be able to celebrate at your hotel. This is great news."

Yuan Shikang was overjoyed and congratulated sincerely.

“Master Ye, I have brought along the appointment letters of Yuan Cheng and Guo Kang as district chiefs.

We still need your suggestions on how to build a new leadership team for the new district."

Yuan Shikang said politely.

Ye Tianshui: "Governor Yuan, your work style is still as vigorous and vigorous as ever. I admire you very much.

I didn’t expect that you have already implemented it in just a few days.”

Ye Tianshui was also very surprised.

“However, I will not participate in setting up the leadership team of the new district.

You should know me. I don't know much about local governments. This matter still needs to be discussed and decided by you, the leaders of the leading group, and Yuan Chengguo and others."

Yuan Shikang was stunned. He thought Ye Tianshui would take this opportunity to insert a few of his people into the leadership team of the "Development Zone".

I didn't expect that he had no plans in this regard at all.

I felt a little guilty, as if I was judging others by my own standards.

“Mr. Ye, your guess is correct. No one agrees to let them take on the position of district party secretary concurrently.

I will follow your suggestion and keep this position for the time being. Now I will just appoint them as the heads of the 'Development Zone'."

Yuan Shikang's tone couldn't help but carry a hint of respect.

Ye Tianshui hummed and said, "That's good enough. I just don't want to put a tight ring around their heads.

Later on, I was restricted in what I did. "
