Rebirth of Minister Qi

“I’m afraid the situation will get worse and worse, so the two people who are making trouble should not move, but should just play second fiddle and find someone who is not making trouble to go up.

This is also the message we tell all the officials in the Urban Management Bureau: it is not advisable to always think about engaging in political struggles.

What the superiors hope is that the work can be done and there will be stability and unity.”

Qi Tongwei put forward his own opinions, and Chen Yu and Jin Xinkai both nodded silently.

“District Mayor, I think District Mayor Qi’s opinion is correct. Our district government must tell the cadres below to focus on their work.

Promoting those who do a good job rather than those who fight fiercely is a step backward in history.

At this stage, our new district is developing very fast. If we miss this opportunity, it will be difficult in the future.”

Jin Xinkai also nodded and then set the tone.

"Well, there is a deputy director in their Urban Management Bureau. I remember his name is Xia Xianchong. He has always had a good reputation at work. Old Chen, go back and find out about his recent reputation and whether he has been involved in these things.

If not, Tongwei, you come and interview him. We will have a result this weekend. Early on Monday morning, Lao Chen, you go and announce the appointment result.

We can’t let them continue to make trouble like this. The urban management bureau will need to make great efforts to renovate the old city.”

Qi Tongwei and the other man stood up, nodded, and prepared to go out.

"Tongwei, please stay for a moment."

Qi Tongwei said hello to Chen Yu and turned back to the office.

"My boy, you have a lot of connections.

Chen Yu told me that you are more suitable to take over his position, and even Secretary Jin has hinted at this.

I don’t know where this method came from.”

Finally, we got to this point, and Qi Tongwei's anxious heart finally had a result.

“Brother, I didn’t know about it beforehand.

It was my senior, Li Luche, secretary of the Provincial Political and Legal Affairs Commission, who recommended me to the mayor.

After a year of observation, the mayor decided to give me a chance.

I haven’t even met the mayor yet.”

Jin Xinkai was in a much more relaxed state at this time. He leaned back in his boss chair with his feet on the desk.

“This is your luck, it’s an opportunity.

Don't look at me, I really didn't know about it in advance. I was planning to adjust the personnel of the district government step by step. Logically, Wu Ende should take over as the executive director.

But now that the mayor has intervened, I’m afraid the entire new district will be transformed.”

Qi Tongwei sounded a little worried.

"What should we do? If the new district's layout changes drastically, will our current working conditions change? Will the current good situation be hindered by others?"

"Hehe, you, you also panic when it comes to official positions, not like the old fox in the past at all.

Don't worry, Secretary Lu still has the final say on the layout of the new district, and Secretary Jin is Secretary Lu's direct subordinate.

I am also a cadre appointed by Secretary Lu. Things will not change no matter who enters this door.

They all just work with me.

The city has made preparations and has fully staffed the district party committee standing committee of the new district. All of them will hold part-time positions in the party working committee of the high-tech zone, so not too many people will come.

Secretary Lu discussed this with me a few days ago and decided that I would be in charge of the Standing Committee, while Secretary Jin’s work focus would still be the municipal government.

Chen Yu is probably going to take over the vacant position of deputy secretary of the district committee.

When I become the district party secretary, the position of district mayor will definitely be his. If you take over, you don't have enough qualifications, but you can reassure the mayor.

It is impossible to take his position as district chief, so Chen Yu has been on good terms with you during this period.

But Wu Ende was in a difficult situation. He was originally the Organization Minister of Yongqing County, but he made a mistake and was transferred to the city. Now he came back to do something.

In the end, your position was taken away by you. I planned to arrange for him to do his old job and give him the part-time job of Organization Minister.

I plan to find someone old enough to be your acquaintance for the position of Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission."

Qi Tongwei immediately thought of something.

"Xu Che?"

"Smart, yes, that's Xu Che. He will be the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission. The Minister of Propaganda and United Front will be arranged by Secretary Jin. Generally speaking, he will follow my pace.

With your appointment and Chen Yu's transfer, a deputy district chief's position will be vacated, and Bao Guan from the Finance Bureau will take up the position concurrently. As for the original position in the Public Security Bureau, leave it there for the time being. Chen Jin, whom you promoted, still lacks some qualifications.

When you forcibly transferred someone from the fire brigade, many people in the county gossiped about it. It would be easier to convince people if you give him this position after a year."

Qi Tongwei spoke at this time.

"Brother, I think we can arrange for one more person. Didn't you say that Wu Ende will be transferred sooner or later? Then why not let him transfer earlier?

In order to avoid being angry with me, let Bao Guan take over as the deputy district chief directly. The deputy district chief with a lower ranking can be given a try by Li Wei. "

"Li Wei? That fat guy? He seems a bit bookish. I always feel that he is a bit timid when speaking and doing things."

"Brother, people are trained. You first met him because he was the deputy director of the county government office. At that time, he was in a service position, so he must have been timid when meeting the county magistrate.

Now he is the secretary of Qinshan Town. He has sufficient qualifications and is more decisive in doing things.

Besides, his family background is good, but he has no connections with the upper class, so he is suitable for tackling tough problems.

If he were in charge of the demolition plans for Jiangbei Street and Shangxia Bridge, he would be able to withstand the pressure.

He also understands the local situation and can help take charge of the political and legal areas.

The Urban Management Bureau, the Public Security Bureau, and several law enforcement bureaus were put under his charge. In exchange for his promotion, he was allowed to tackle tough problems. "

Jin Xinkai's eyes rolled and he immediately felt it was appropriate.

“But he’s a local, can he tear it down?

So many relatives and friends.”

“When it comes to official positions, relatives and friends have to give way. Besides, now that the houses have been demolished, there is better room for development.

It is a good thing that benefits everyone, and it is not just a simple demolition. If he can sort out the relationship between them, then we have really discovered a talent. If he can't figure it out and makes a mess, he can be immediately sent to a sinecure, and he will have nothing to say. He can also blame the people's grievances on him, making it easier for his successor to do his job.

Let's use this work as a deadline. As long as he does a good job, we will let him join the Standing Committee. How about that?"

"You, you are starting to act like an old fox again.

Okay, let’s do it.

You should also learn more about the situation at the Urban Management Bureau. I will gradually hand over the organizational work to Chen Yu to see if the information he finds is consistent with yours.

This determines how much power I give him.”

After the discussion, Qi Tongwei returned to his office. Now he is very busy every day, and it is no longer as easy as being a police chief.
