Rebirth of Minister Qi

Qi Tongwei's confidence and composure were shaken at this moment, and Zhao Mengsheng also noticed it.

"It's a bit sad, I didn't know you would have this side.

You can choose for yourself. One option is to go back to the ministry. Isn't your wife from Beijing? There will be a good position waiting for you when you go back, and you will definitely be satisfied with it, instead of some empty position like deputy inspector.

Another option is to come to the provincial party committee and be my deputy secretary-general. I personally recommend this direction. You have strong basic abilities, and I also need a staff officer to fill in the gaps. Please consider it.

You should settle down in the office. You have been at the grassroots level for too long.

Tongwei, you are still young, you are thirty years old this year, right? "

"Not yet. I won't be thirty until next year."

Zhao Mengsheng pointed with his finger.

"You are too young, too young. I am saying this for your own good. Although you are only 29 years old, you give people the impression that you are very capable, like someone in his 40s or 50s. This is because you have been at the grassroots level for too long.

You have always been a leader, always commanding others. You need to calm down and come to me.

Think about it carefully, wait for the right time, and after one or two more experience, you can become a local lord."

Qi Tongwei came to Li Lue's office again, but the governor was really busy. A lot of people lined up to report on their work, and Qi Tongwei only got a few minutes.

"To make a long story short, you are now a department-level cadre, and it is against the rules to report directly to the provincial party committee leaders.

Did Lao Zhao tell you about that?"

Qi Tongwei nodded.

“This is a collective decision made by the provincial party committee. You two have a very good personal relationship and have been in Dongou for too long.

Either you leave or he leaves. You should understand this principle. The provincial party committee cannot allow the control of important cities to be in the hands of one or two cadres. In the past, both of you were not of high rank and your influence had not spread throughout the city.

Now the two of you have amazing appeal. With the achievements you have made in the past few years, everyone from top to bottom is your people. It is not an exaggeration to call you the uncrowned kings.

There's nothing we can do about it, seeing how aggrieved you look.

Lao Zhao mentioned to me that he wanted you to be the deputy secretary-general. Tell me what you think about it. Don't treat me as your leader.

We are brothers from the same school, and the teacher cares about you very much and always calls to ask me about you."

As for Mr. Hong, he has now held a position in a substantive department and is currently serving as the Minister of the Ministry of Justice. When this term is completed, there will be strong calls for him to be promoted.

"Brother, if I were to choose, I would like to stick to my old profession."

"Be a police officer?"

Generally speaking, people who have served as comprehensive leaders will not be willing to go back to being a professional police officer unless they like it very much. Qi Tongwei belongs to the latter.

"Yes, I really like being a police officer, and I like the police uniform.

The last time I took off my police uniform, I was forced to do so. It was because of the fireworks in the city. Although I didn’t say it, I still wanted to put on my police uniform in my heart.”

“Hahahaha, okay.

Obey the organization's arrangements and be sensible. So where do you want to go?

Provincial Public Security Bureau?"

Qi Tongwei opened his eyes wide and began to answer with his back straightened.

"Brother, if I have a choice, I want to go back to the Public Security Administration. I started out as a secretary there, and I want to go back again."

“Hahahaha, what a great idea.

You used to be the secretary of the deputy director. If you can go back this time, you will at least be a deputy director, which can be considered a glorious return home.

Well, you go back first, finish the work at hand, do things in the right order, and wait for the news."

But almost a month had passed since the incident and no one had talked to him, nor had anyone come to take over. Qi Tongwei felt a little uneasy for a moment and was a little confused about his future.

During this period, he talked with his old friend, Liu Dexu, the current executive vice director of the Public Security Department. Although Liu Dexu did not recommend that he jump out of the main leadership positions in important districts and counties, everyone has their own special circumstances. Normally, young age is a huge advantage, but Qi Tongwei is obviously too young now, and it is not suitable for him to go to high-level agencies to settle down for a few years. His situation is different from that of Jin Xinkai, who comes from a noble family.

Jin Xinkai comes from a large family and has extensive connections in the upper echelons, and is more familiar with the rules of that level. If he can seize the opportunity to do things well at the grassroots level and become the mayor or even the secretary of an important city, this resume will mean that his path to the ministerial level is truly open.

Even though they have reached the department level in their thirties, this stage is not difficult for senior cadres to cross. The transition from section level to department level is a screening process. For some truly promising cadres, the transition from department level to vice-ministerial level and from vice-ministerial level to powerful minister is the stage that truly consumes time and truly exercises their abilities.

Many department-level cadres in their early thirties will eventually have to be around fifty to sit in the position of deputy ministerial-level standing committee member with real power, that is, the golden four kings, the organization minister, the executive vice governor, the discipline inspection committee secretary and the provincial capital city secretary. These four roles are the ones who truly stand on the stage and are competitors for the governor position. Whoever serves concurrently as deputy secretary becomes a reserve governor.

Of course, the times now are different from those ten years later. These days there are four or five deputy secretaries, and important affairs of a province are first decided by the secretary's office meeting and then put to a vote by the Standing Committee.

However, the burden will be completely reduced in the next term. Due to the principle that economic development is above all else, the executive vice governor and the provincial capital city are more competitive than other positions. After serving a full term, if the superiors decide who will take over, they will let him transfer or concurrently serve as the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee for a short-term transition, which will not exceed two years.

Qi Tongwei is helpless in his current situation. He is obviously the real helmsman of the economic miracle of the Hi-Tech Zone, but he also has to consider the overall situation. It is a good thing for him if Jin Xinkai goes up first because he is a farmer's child.

If Qi Tongwei goes up first, it is still unknown whether the Jin family will still fully support him.

Liu Dexu suggested to Qi Tongwei that he should come directly to the provincial department, which would ensure that he would be promoted to the rank of director-general during the change of term in two years and take over his position, that is, executive deputy director-general. By then, as a director-general in his early thirties, he would have a wide range of opportunities to go anywhere, even working as the party secretary of the Provincial Writers Association for two years would not be a problem.

This was of course a joke. Qi Tongwei didn't want to go to the Provincial Writers Association to be the Party Secretary. The power of the position there was even less than that of a second-level township. If he wanted to go there, he would go back to the Ministry of Public Security, back to where he started.

On this day, Qi Tongwei was taking care of the child at home. Yes, they had a child two years ago, and the child could already sing, dance and play basketball.

"Hua Zai, come over here and dunk."

This is a miniature basketball toy sent by Chen Jin. It has a backboard and a basketball, and children over one year old can play with it.
