"Comrade Lu Rui?" Minister Liu's voice came from the phone.

Lu Rui smiled slightly, held the phone and said politely: "Hello, Minister Liu, I wonder if you have any instructions?" After all, he is the leader of the provincial party committee and a powerful cadre with the power of organizational cadres. He must give others some credit.

The respect is.

Minister Liu laughed heartily and seemed very satisfied with Lu Rui's attitude. This is the case in official circles. There are differences between top and bottom. No matter how bad the relationship between two people is, the rules that should be followed must still be followed.

"It's like this. The Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee is currently discussing the candidate for the executive deputy mayor of Renqing City. As the main leader of the Renqing Municipal Party Committee, the Provincial Party Committee would like to ask for your opinion."

Minister Liu asked Lu Rui calmly, as if he mentioned this matter accidentally.

Lu Rui sneered in his heart. The provincial party committee wants to question me? Guo Jia, the head of the provincial party committee, has already revealed his intention. You, Minister Liu, are testing me under the banner of the provincial party committee. You just want to

Just let me, Lu, take over the job.

Lu Rui was not a fool. He understood what Minister Liu was thinking after just a little thinking.

The Provincial Party Committee has now begun to discuss the selection of candidates for the Renqing Municipal Party Committee. I believe that no matter what Guo Jia thinks, this matter must be handed over to the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee to examine and recommend candidates, especially after Guo Jia has communicated with Lu Rui

When Guo Zhengtong was transferred from the position of deputy mayor of Renqing City to the mayor of Hai'an, the provincial capital, Renqing City suddenly had two candidates for the government standing committee. For many people, this

It's an opportunity, an opportunity to extend your power into Renqing City.

However, the prerequisite for this opportunity is that Guo Zhengtong can become mayor of the provincial capital.

The mayor of Hai'an is equivalent to the administrative leader of the provincial capital of G Province. Not to mention his promising future, his status is definitely much higher than the mayors and municipal party committee secretaries of ordinary cities. If it were not for the support of the provincial party committee standing committee members behind Lu Rui,

Guo Jia was also reluctant to hand over this position to Lu Rui's group, especially since Guo Zhengtong's level was sufficient, but his qualifications were still lacking. You must know that under normal circumstances, candidates who are transferred to the mayor of a provincial capital city should be in other places.

For those who have been secretary of the municipal party committee in a city-level city, like Guo Zhengtong, who was directly promoted from the ordinary position of deputy mayor of the Standing Committee to the mayor of the provincial capital. It can be regarded as an exceptional appointment.

It is such a position that not only Guo Jia, the top leader, values ​​​​but Governor Zhang, as the head of the provincial government, also always pays attention to this position. The Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee of Haian is a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, and was promoted by Guo Jia.

On the Standing Committee, including in daily work, he always follows Guo Jia's lead. If the mayor becomes Guo Jia's man again, then I am afraid that Governor Zhang will no longer have any say in the provincial capital.

.

Therefore, no matter what, Governor Zhang has to compete for the position of mayor of this provincial city.

Minister Liu and Governor Zhang are very close. This is not a secret in the province. Minister Liu has expressed his support for Governor Zhang in several meetings of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Committee. If not for the power behind the two people being strong enough to protect them, Minister Liu and Governor Zhang are very close.

According to Minister Liu, I am afraid that Guo Jia has already suggested to his superiors to replace this disobedient Provincial Party Committee Organization Minister. But because the other party's power is not under the power behind him, he can only blame it on the enemy.

The Renqing Municipal Party Committee team has been adjusted and a new mayor has been appointed in the provincial capital.

These two seemingly unrelated things actually became related inadvertently. This was something that no one had thought of beforehand.

Lu Rui could even imagine how surprised the provincial party committee bosses would be when Guo Jia proposed at the Standing Committee of the Provincial Committee that Guo Zhengtong be the mayor of Hai'an. It was like a long-time meat eater suddenly

He changed his usual behavior and suddenly told you that he was going to start fasting and chanting Buddha's name. Except for Lu Mo, who was notified by him in advance, most people in the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee would probably doubt whether Guo Jia had reached some agreement with him.

, otherwise why would he suddenly lose his temper and let Guo Zhengtong be the mayor of Laoshizi?

After calculating the time, it should be not long after the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee ended. At this time, Minister Liu called him to ask about the candidate for the executive deputy mayor. It seemed that he hoped that he would recommend Guo Zhengtong. After all, if the Renqing Municipal Party Committee

If Guo Zhengtong is recommended as executive deputy mayor, it will be difficult for the province to make other adjustments.

But will Lu Rui let Minister Liu get his wish?

The answer is of course impossible!

Smiling softly, Lu Rui said calmly: "That's right, I think Comrade Liu Qingdong, the Organization Director of the Municipal Party Committee, is very suitable."

Liu Qingdong?

Hearing this name, Minister Liu repeated it in his mouth, but he sighed in his heart, nodded and said, "Is there anyone else?"

Lu Rui smiled: "No, this is just my personal opinion. It will be discussed by our Standing Committee before it is reported to the Provincial Party Committee. Minister Liu, please take your time."

The more polite he was, the angrier he became, and he hung up the phone without saying a few words.

Lu Rui knew very well that Minister Liu hoped that the candidate he named was Guo Zhengtong, because once Lu Rui nominated Guo Zhengtong as the executive deputy mayor of Renqing City, it would be equivalent to preparing Guo Zhengtong as the mayor of Renqing City.

Come to train him. When that time comes, whether it is Governor Zhang or Minister Liu himself, they can use this as an excuse to block Guo Jia's mouth and prevent Guo Jia from appointing Guo Zhengtong as the mayor of Hai'an under special circumstances.

The suggestion was approved. However, Lu Rui did not do so. Instead, he nominated Liu Qingdong, the current Organization Minister of Renqing City, to be the executive deputy mayor.

According to the ranking of the Standing Committee, Liu Qingdong, the Organization Minister, is higher than the Organization Minister in terms of power in his hands and standing committee ranking. However, from the government's perspective, it is easier for the Executive Deputy Mayor to take over as mayor, and

Above the organization director, there is also the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee who is blocking him. No matter how good his performance is, Liu Qingdong will have to wait for a while if he wants to cross the threshold of the main hall from the deputy hall. Lu Rui's nomination can be said to be a support.

A handful from Liu Qingdong.

To be fair, Lu Rui's nomination was carefully considered and Lu Rui made the decision after careful consideration to appoint Liu Qingdong.

As the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Lu Rui has no intention of taking on the role of the municipal government, because he knows very well that no matter how strong he is, he can only serve two terms in Renqing City before he has a chance to be promoted. That is to say, at least five years.

Internally, Lu Rui must find a way to handle the relationship between Renqing City's leadership. Bao Yuanzheng from the government will retire sooner or later. Who will be replaced as the mayor is still unknown. After all, Renqing City is now

The development prospects are so good, and with the attention of the leaders above, it can be said that everyone’s eyes are fixed on the location of Renqing City. Without connections, it is simply impossible to gain a foothold in Renqing City.

The position of mayor of Renqing City is second only to the municipal party committee secretary. I believe that the various factions will inevitably compete fiercely. Even Lu Rui is not sure that after controlling the position of municipal party committee secretary, he will still let his people win the mayor.

position. In this way, even if Guo Zhengtong takes the position of executive deputy mayor, he may not actually be able to snatch the position of mayor from others. Instead, he will offend Guo Jia, the top leader of the provincial party committee, because of this matter

, thereby wasting an opportunity to expand his power. Therefore, Guo Zhengtong and Lu Rui would help him win the position of mayor of the provincial capital no matter what.

It is precisely for this reason that the executive deputy mayor of Renqing City is not an easy job. He will have to face a storm of blows from the future new mayor, because the new mayor simply comes to Renqing City to pick peaches.

, such a cadre who strives for political achievements will definitely seize the power in his hands. The mayor will definitely suppress the executive deputy mayor who shares his responsibilities. So no matter who becomes the executive deputy mayor,

Leaning towards Lu Rui, the powerful Municipal Party Committee Secretary, became his inevitable choice.

Another important reason is that Lu Rui is actually not satisfied with Liu Qingdong sitting in the position of the Municipal Party Committee Organization Minister. In his opinion, the position of the Municipal Party Committee Organization Minister is very important, and he needs someone he can trust completely.

.

Lu Rui is very clear that among the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee members, as the top leader of the Municipal Party Committee, he has the decision-making power. The first is the Organization Minister, and the second is the Municipal Party Committee Secretary-General. The leaders above are very clear that the party is in charge of cadres, and it is the Organization Minister who assists the Secretary in managing cadres. If

The personnel work is out of control when the organization director and secretary can't even urinate in a pot. The secretary-general manages daily affairs for the secretary. If the secretary-general and the secretary are in conflict with each other, the daily work will be disrupted. Therefore,

, for these two positions, there is often considerable bias from above. As long as the municipal party committee secretary is nominated, the vote will generally not be rejected.

Liu Qingdong was not a direct descendant of Lu Rui before. Even if he relies on Lu Rui now, Lu Rui is still wary of this subordinate who has become a monk halfway. After all, a cadre who has joined him halfway is still more trustworthy than someone who has always followed him.

.

It’s not that Liu Qingdong is incompetent, but that Lu Rui is not easy to use, and some words cannot be said clearly. After all, someone who can betray you once can also betray you a second time. For a cadre like this, Lu Rui

From the bottom of his heart, Rui felt uneasy about them.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Lu Rui decided to replace Liu Qingdong, the organization director, with a cadre he could trust.

As for whether Liu Qingdong would have other thoughts after becoming the executive deputy mayor, Lu Rui had already had an idea. In any case, he helped Liu Qingdong from the position of organization director to the position of executive deputy mayor. In theory, he could

With the opportunity to become a department-level cadre, Liu Qingdong should know how to choose as long as he is not a fool. Otherwise, if he can lift him up, he can naturally push him down!
