Chapter 914 The key battle
Mayor Xia just now, gently pushed Sister Ma's incident aside, and didn't care at all. Now he suddenly mentioned the trends in personnel, and his thinking jumped too fast. The leader is the leader, and what you want is that you must follow his ideas.
Could it be that a small matter of Sister Ma damaging public property really caused a significant earthquake in the officialdom? Peng Yunfeng couldn't believe it, and secondly, it was very necessary for him to remind Mayor Xia that although Bao Daguang was just an insignificant deputy secretary-general of the municipal government, he was a key bridge. If he moved him, it would easily trigger a strong rebound in the economic circle of Tianze City!
Bao Daguang had the opportunity to mention the secretary-general or even the deputy mayor, but because he was too afraid of his wife, he misled the situation several times because he was scolded by his wife, which made the leader change his views on him and gave up the idea of promoting him.
It is estimated that Bao Daguang is also the first person in China to miss the opportunity to promote twice because he is afraid of his wife.
Bao Daguang has many shortcomings. He doesn't want to talk about his wife, he is still greedy for money and is stingy. But he has to admit that he also has extraordinary advantages, that is, he has in-depth research on the market economy and has unique insights into the opposition between domestic monopoly oligopolies and private enterprises, and how to promote development between each other, etc.
Bao Daguang is a supporter of the private economy. He believes that the way out for domestic reform and opening up is to support the development and growth of the private economy, and it is necessary to curb the further monopoly and unreasonable growth of the oligarchical economy.
If Xia Xiang is asked to distinguish it, Xia Xiang will call the private economy a free economy and a free economy for ordinary people. The oligopoly economy is the monopoly economy of vested interest groups, that is, the family power economy, or more vividly called powerful capitalism. Whether to support the growth of the free economy or continue to make the oligopoly economy further monopolize the market, there is a big difference among the top leaders, that is, the fundamental difference in political ideas between civilian power and family power.
Because Bao Daguang hates the oligarchical economy, Zhang You, as a representative of the free economy, spared no effort to support it. However, due to his limitations of vision or ability, he could only use his authority to make Zhang You earn money from the government. However, it is precisely because his views and actions are very popular in the business community of Tianze City. Although Bao Daguang is not of high level, almost all private business owners in Tianze City respect him very much.
Xia Xiang didn't know Bao Daguang's prestige among business people, nor did he know that Bao Daguang almost served as the director of the Municipal State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission once, but because his arguments were too inclined to the private economy, he was taken down at the end. However, because Bao Daguang had profound insights into state-owned enterprise reform and private development, when Mayor Mao was in office in the last government, he was almost equivalent to Mayor Mao's economic adviser.
Xia Xiang has a certain research on the economy and his own economic philosophy. In addition, when he first came, he didn't know that Bao Daguang had a knowledgeable side. Of course, it was not that he intended to move Bao Daguang, but that Li Xiaomin wanted to move.
Not only Li Xiaomin wanted to move Bao Daguang away, but also Wu Mingyi.
As a representative of the family forces, Wu Mingyi has long disliked Bao Daguang. Now that he has seized the opportunity and has Xia Xiang’s acquiesce, he will definitely not miss the opportunity. Therefore, he intends to take advantage of the incident of Sister Ma being arrested and set fire to the municipal party committee compound.
Wu Mingyi first returned to the office and thought about the whole story. Suddenly, he decided to have a face-to-face conversation with Xia Xiang. He came to Xia Xiang's office, and Xu Ziqi blocked him politely and respectfully.
"Secretary Wu, please wait. Mayor Xia is talking to Director Peng. I went to ask for instructions."
Although Peng Yunfeng is a member of the government team, Wu Mingyi is quite familiar with his personality and political tendencies, and is shocked. Peng Yunfeng is reporting work to Mayor Xia now and is definitely speaking for Bao Daguang. If it is bad, you must not let Mayor Xia shake. Now it is a great opportunity to move Bao Daguang, and you must not miss it.
He smiled and suddenly coughed twice, as if he wasn't doing it on purpose, but in fact he made a sound intentionally, so that Xia Xiang could hear it.
Wu Mingyi guessed correctly. Peng Yunfeng did tell Xia Xiang the importance of Bao Daguang. Peng Yunfeng said it was very subtle. He also knew that no matter how much Bao Daguang had influenced him, some people would be dissatisfied at most. As a private enterprise that was not valued by the government, they just dared not speak out, and there would be no unstable factors.
Peng Yunfeng mainly believed that he was a talented person and might be able to give advice to Mayor Xia, so he advised Xia to be tolerant in Bao Daguang's affairs.
Xia Xiang was transferred to Tianze City by his family forces. In the eyes of outsiders, his political stance will definitely be biased towards an oligarchical economy and monopoly enterprises. But the time is still short, and Mayor Xia has not clearly expressed his political tendency.
Peng Yunfeng talked about things with a bag, but in fact he had his own little plan, just to take this opportunity to test Mayor Xia's political tendencies. Tianze City is too conservative and has too weak support for private enterprises. The state-owned enterprises that were originally weak and had no ability to take advantage of the situation, but they tended all their limited political and economic resources to state-owned enterprises that were superficial, resulting in complaints from private enterprises and could not grow and grow.
To promote the economic development of Tianze City, you must have the spirit of being brave to innovate and change the current situation where the government lacks support for private enterprises. For some state-owned enterprises that have poor benefits but occupy a large amount of social resources, they will cut them when they should and close them when they should. Only by reasonably allocating useful resources to private enterprises and revitalizing the free economy can Tianze City change the status quo.
To be fair, Peng Yunfeng also hopes that Xia Xiang's arrival can break the old and backward situation in Tianze City. First of all, we must change the free and casual work style of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government. Whether Bao Daguang was removed was not the focus of his concern. He wanted to know Mayor Xia's political tendencies and also determine his future work direction. That's why he solemnly used Bao Daguang to support private enterprises' views and let's see what Mayor Xia's attitude is.
Mayor Xia's performance disappointed Peng Yunfeng - he thought about it thoughtfully, and said: "Comrade Bao Daguang's personal problems and financial opinions cannot be confused..." As soon as he said something, Wu Mingyi's cough came from outside.
Xia Xiang could also understand that Peng Yunfeng was eager to know his political tendencies, but now it is not the time to express it. Since he had agreed to the Wu family in the capital, he had just come to Tianze City and showed a completely opposite political tendency, which would not only make the family forces dislike it, but even the Prime Minister would think that he was both sides.
"Sister Ma's affairs are left to Xiaomin for full responsibility." Xia Xiang waved his hand, "Go and invite Secretary Wu in."
Peng Yunfeng tried not to show a disappointed look, nodded respectfully and stepped out. When he saw Wu Mingyi, he didn't forget to ask, but Wu Mingyi just snorted: "Xiao Peng, I'm quite active recently, good, and ambitious."
Peng Yunfeng knew that Wu Mingyi's words were ironic and could not refute them, so he had to smile reluctantly.
Wu Mingyi came to Xia Xiang's office and laughed enthusiastically: "Mayor Xia, I should have come to treat you to a meal long ago. This happened to happen that the provincial party committee has issued a series of documents recently, and I can't get rid of it."
Xia Xiang saw Wu Mingyi being rough and generous, but his eyes were not big, and he turned very quickly. He knew that he was a shrewd man, so he laughed: "Secretary Wu is polite, work first, work first."
Wu Mingyi took the seat and took the initiative to hand over to Xia Xiang. Xia Xiang declined: "I don't have much addiction to smoking, I usually smoke one when I think about it."
Wu Mingyi didn't force himself, and took a breath on his own, then said, "I'll draw one, mayor Xia doesn't object, right?"
Xia Xiang waved his hand with a smile, but he didn't respond, waiting for Wu Mingyi to raise the topic.
Wu Mingyi took two more sips before speaking again: "By seniority, I should call Minister Wu Uncle..."
The opening remark pointed out his identity, which was obviously to bring closer relationships. Xia Xiang still smiled and didn't speak, but just took a listening attitude. Seeing this, Wu Mingyi felt a sense of contentment in his heart. Knowing that Mayor Xia did not like to go around, he also made clear his purpose.
"Bao Daguang's problem is very serious. Sister Ma is his sister-in-law. She deliberately damaged public property very badly. She was deliberately retaliated, which was enough to pursue criminal responsibility. She also admitted that she was instructed by Bao Daguang to fire her from the Administrative Department and carried out malicious revenge on the Administrative Department. She also reported the fact that Bao Daguang accepted bribes. In order to seek leniency, she also said that Bao Daguang was tampering with the city government during the repair and renovation process, embezzling and embezzling public funds to squander himself..."
Xia Xiang couldn't help but look at Wu Mingyi for a long time. He had already put so many things out of Sister Ma's mouth in just enough time? It can be seen how urgent he was to move Bao Daguang away. If Peng Yunfeng hadn't just revealed Bao Daguang's identity and influence, Xia Xiang would have really not figured out why Wu Mingyi was eager to kick Bao Daguang away!
Wu Mingyi is a representative figure of the family power, and Bao Daguang opposes the expansion of the family power. Now he has the opportunity to take action, so it would be strange if Wu Mingyi doesn't kick.
Xia Xiang said with a serious look on his face: "It's really so serious? Corruption and embezzlement of public funds are absolutely intolerable behaviors and must be severely punished. I have asked Comrade Xiaomin to be responsible for the specific investigation. If Secretary Wu learns about the situation, please inform Comrade Xiaomin."
Xia Xiang's attitude was a bit beyond Wu Mingyi's surprise. He thought Xia Xiang would be overjoyed and might even get closer to him. After all, he is both a direct descendant of the Wu family. Unexpectedly, Xia Xiang was lukewarm and indifferent to the Bao Daguang incident, which made him a little confused.
But he didn't dare to ask randomly without thinking about his mind. He didn't mention the close relationship between Xia Xiang and the Wu family, but he couldn't catch up with him even after chasing his horse. Even Xia Xiang was the second-ranked person of the Municipal Party Committee and the dignified mayor, he didn't dare to cross it. So he hummed a few more words, but he still didn't see Mayor Xia express his clear statement and got up and left.
Xia Xiang gave him face and delivered it to the door.
The next day, news about Sister Ma being arrested and confessed that Bao Daguang embezzled and embezzled public funds spread in the municipal party committee compound. Xia Xiang ignored it, and even Li Xiaomin came to report on his work, but Xu Ziqi was politely blocked outside. Li Xiaomin understood something and no longer bothered Mayor Xia about this matter.
In the afternoon of the same day, at the government work meeting, Li Xiaomin raised the serious problem of Comrade Bao Daguang and it was necessary to suspend his post for reflection. Xu Fanhua and Yang Jian did not object because they both knew that Bao Daguang was indeed in trouble and his hands and feet were not clean. They also saw that although Mayor Xia had been silent on this matter, he was obviously a supportive attitude. And there was another point that the person was captured by Secretary Wu. Secretary Wu spared no effort to take Bao Daguang down, and his attitude was very firm. As the deputy secretary in charge of personnel affairs, his words brought pressure to many people.
Even Chen Jiewen was the same as Xia Xiang, and she did not express any opinions from beginning to end. The first and second leaders of the municipal party committee remained silent. Regardless of whether the starting point was the same, the purpose was the same, and she would not tolerate Bao Daguang's behavior!
Three days later, Bao Daguang was dismissed and investigated, and Li Qingniu was also implicated and suspended for reflection. Perhaps by coincidence, the Municipal People's Congress meeting was held in the afternoon to formally elect Xia Xiang as the mayor of Tianze Municipal People's Government and Yang Jian as the deputy mayor of Tianze Municipal People's Government.
Xia Xiang then held a government executive meeting to discuss and adjust the division of labor of the government team. Comrade Yang Jian was the executive vice mayor, presided over the daily work of the government, was responsible for the Development and Reform Commission and the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and also served as the director of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission.
When adjusting the division of labor, the urban construction outlet that originally belonged to Xu Fanhua also belonged to Yang Jian. Although Xu Fanhua implicitly expressed his dissatisfaction, the majority of the deputy mayor who supported Yang Jian, and Mayor Xia also had a supportive attitude, he accepted the reality helplessly.
Bao Daguang was dismissed and investigated, Li Qingniu was suspended for reflection, and Li Qingniu might also be replaced when he saw the wind. A deputy secretary-general and an administrative director, both of which were fat and flawed, immediately attracted the attention of many people and their hearts were fluctuating.
Xia Xiang has the right to decide on personnel issues within the municipal government, but Executive Vice Mayor Yang Jian also has the right to suggest. I don’t know if it was Yang Jian’s instruction or Mayor Xia was too busy to take care of it, but no one mentioned the question of taking over the candidate.
However, Peng Yunfeng still remembered that Mayor Xia mentioned it to him, and thought Mayor Xia was really asking for his opinion, so he planned a few candidates and handed them over to Mayor Xia. Mayor Xia did not comment and asked him to let it go, saying that he was studying it, and then there was no further information.
Peng Yunfeng obviously felt that Mayor Xia’s attitude towards him became cold, and he felt unsure. He guessed that it must have caused Mayor Xia’s unhappiness. Was it because of the last test?
Although he knew that the leader was hard to figure out, as a subordinate, he had to figure out the leader's thoughts. Zhang You asked someone to ask Xu Xin again, and Xu Xin found Peng Yunfeng again, hoping that Peng Yunfeng could ask Xia Xiang to come forward and take the time to enjoy the gift. Peng Yunfeng thought about it before and after, he decided to dare to mention it to Mayor Xia again.
As expected, he hit a wall again. Mayor Xia said very politely: "Don't be polite. I just came to Tianze City and I have to start from scratch. I'll be spared after eating. Let's talk about it later. Thank you for your kindness on my behalf. By the way, Minister Xu has also made him worry."
You are polite, but you are a polite attitude, but you are a thousand miles away, which makes Peng Yunfeng feel even more and more unsure.
Not long afterwards, another thing happened that made Peng Yunfeng even more uncomfortable...
A few days later, Xu Xin took the opportunity to discuss the candidate for Deputy Secretary-General and had a talk with Xia Xiang. He first talked about the main business and then the private affairs. He proposed to invite Xia Xiang to dinner again. Mayor Xia hesitated for a while and actually agreed!
When Peng Yunfeng heard this, he sat alone in the office without moving for a long time, and felt over and over again, both embarrassing and upset. He knew that Mayor Xia must have an objection to him, and it was clear that he wanted to let him dry him. He couldn't help but ask Minister Xu when he came forward, which would let Minister Xu see clearly that he had no weight in Mayor Xia's mind.
Peng Yunfeng thought about it over and over again, and then he tidied up everything from beginning to end. He almost knew where he was wrong. He was too clever and always wanted to test the leader's tone. It is not impossible to test the leader's tone, but it must be done in a hidden way, so that the leader will not be noticed, nor can he be disgusted.
Mayor Xia is too smart. A little clever trick in front of him will not work at all, but will instead make things worse.
...
Accompanied by Xu Xin, Xia Xiang came to Deqing Hotel. Deqing Hotel is one of the best high-end places in Tianze City. Zhang You stood at the door and greeted him with a smile. When he saw Xia Xiang coming, he hurriedly nodded and greeted him.
"Hello, Mayor Xia, hello! I am Zhang You. We met last time. You may have no impression of it anymore. I am deeply impressed by Mayor Xia, and my admiration for you is like a surging river..."
Xia Xiang reached out to shake hands with Zhang You, but he interrupted him without hesitation: "Zhang You, don't just be able to say beautiful words, but you also need to learn to do beautiful things. Everyone can say beautiful words, but few people can do beautiful things."
Zhang You didn't expect that Mayor Xia would be directly criticized when he came up, but he was thick-skinned and had already practiced to be invincible. He smiled and said, "Mayor Xia has taught me a lesson. I will definitely correct my mistakes when I know them. There is no great benefit."
Xia Xiang laughed so that he would not correct the mistake in Zhang You's words. Under Zhang You's leadership, he entered the room.
Xu Xin is not tall, probably about 1.65 meters tall, and he is thin, so he, who is 50 years old this year, looks like a thin old man. The main party and government leaders of Tianze City are obviously much older than those of Lang City. Perhaps it is precisely because of his age that the political atmosphere in Tianze City is more mature, more rounded, or simply smoother.
