Chapter 931 [Keep Silence] (Part 2)
Xiang Cheng, secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, said: "Comrade Hong Gang, what do you think?" Seeing that Jiang Honggang was silent all the time, Xiang Cheng directly called him.**
Jiang Honggang smiled: "I think what everyone said makes sense. Secretary Xiang is right. It is a good thing to withdraw Binhai from counties and cities. They will take this step sooner or later, and they will succeed sooner or later. However, this matter must be carefully considered and you cannot be too rushed."
Gong Huanshan looked at Jiang Honggang and said in his heart: "Saying means not saying it." If there is one of the people Gong Huanshan dislikes the most, it is Jiang Honggang. The reason is very simple. He regards Jiang Honggang as his only opponent on his way forward. Although Jiang Honggang is currently at a disadvantage in all aspects of competition with him, he knows that Jiang Honggang has never given up on the idea of competing with him.
Jiang Honggang said: "I don't think this matter is that serious. Comrade Zhang Yang first came to Beigang. Young comrades will definitely not be as thoughtful as old comrades. He must consider his mentality of just taking office and being eager to achieve results. I also think that he was a little too hasty about the issue of Binhai's withdrawal of county and city, and did not consider it in many procedures. However, we must also affirm his enthusiasm for work and his urgent mood to change the appearance of Binhai. Therefore, in handling this matter, we cannot let it go, nor can we beat him to death with one blow. It is not possible to criticize it, but it is not possible to criticize it too ruthlessly."
Gong Huanshan cursed the old fox inwardly, saying that this guy wanted to not offend either side.
Xiang Cheng could certainly understand Jiang Honggang's feelings. He nodded slowly and said, "Comrade Honggang. I'll leave this matter to you. Go and have a good talk with Comrade Zhang Yang, so that he can recognize his mistakes. He should also pay attention to good standards and try not to affect his enthusiasm for work."
Jiang Honggang thought to himself, didn’t you ask Gong Huanshan to talk to him? You asked me to talk to him again? Isn’t this an unnecessary move? But he was very cooperative in front of Xiang Cheng, and nodded with a smile and said, “Secretary Xiang. I will talk to him as soon as possible.”
Xiang Cheng said: "The meeting ended!"
Zhang Yang's arrival made Xiang Cheng feel increasingly unhappy. He always felt that this kid's existence was like a time bomb, which would explode at some point, and Xiang Cheng had a premonition. This time the county was revoked and changed to a city would be successful. Once Binhai County became Binhai City, Zhang Yang's wings would become harder. At that time, it would be difficult for him to control this kid.
However, Xiang Cheng has not yet come up with a way to deal with Zhang Yang. Although he really wanted to teach this kid a lesson and let him know whose right to speak in Beigang was in. However, considering Song Huaiming behind Zhang Yang, Xiang Cheng still hesitated. It would be best if he could be at peace. He instructed Gong Huanshan to talk to Zhang Yang. The purpose was to make Zhang Yang know how to abide by the rules. However, judging from Zhang Yang's reaction after returning, Gong Huanshan obviously did not complete this task well, and Zhang Yang did not take Gong Huanshan seriously.
What happened at the Binhai Standing Committee was reported to Xiang Cheng that night.
Binhai County Mayor Xu Shuangqi came to the home of Xiang Cheng, Secretary of the Beigang Municipal Party Committee, on the evening of the same day, and reported to him the entire story of what happened at the Binhai Standing Committee today.
Xiang Cheng listened very seriously, Xu Shuangqi's expression was very depressed and helpless. In front of Xiang Cheng, he said a lot of thoughts that were kept in his heart: "Secretary Xiang. I feel it is difficult to communicate with Comrade Zhang Yang."
Xiang Cheng smiled and said, "It's not long since he came, and it will definitely take a process to get familiar with it."
Xu Shuangqi said: "That's not what he means. I mean, he is very subjective. He doesn't like to accept other people's opinions, so he must continue to do things he recognizes. He said that the county and the city were abolished. He did not ask anyone's opinions in advance, and he would tell us after the application was made." Xu Shuangqi intentionally aroused Xiang Cheng's anger, because Zhang Yang did not inform Xiang Cheng of this matter, and he surrounded all the leaders of Beigang City.
Xiang Cheng said: "You should strengthen communication with him. Don't forget that you have been working together in the past few years. If you lack understanding, how can you do your work in the future?"
Xu Shuangqi said: "I am so old, he is about the same age as my son. The gap between our thoughts and opinions is too big. You know, our Binhai County's financial situation is not good, and the fiscal deficit has not been eliminated yet. But in order to abolish the county and change it to the city, he has put forward suggestions to increase municipal investment, and it will be implemented soon. I personally think that the focus of Binhai's recent work is not about abolishing the county and changing it to the city, but about eliminating poverty and eliminating the fiscal deficit. Our main focus should be on developing the economy, rather than investing money in meaningless face-saving projects."
Xiang Cheng didn't say anything, as if he was thinking about something.
Xu Shuangqi said again: "No matter how beautiful the municipal construction is, what's the use? No matter how wide the road is, the cars are still running. No matter how bright the street lights are, it is simply increasing the consumption of shared electricity bills, and the lighting of the city in the city is nothing more than donkey poop eggs. If you have the money, it's better to buy some good seeds to support farmers in need. Our Binhai is still mainly agriculture. I think Comrade Zhang Yang's actions after coming to Binhai are a bit of a waste of money."
Xiang Cheng said: "Why don't you say these words to him directly?"
Xu Shuangqi sighed and said, "Secretary Xiang, it would be strange if he is willing to listen to my opinion."
Xiang Cheng said: "Comrade Shuangqi, he is the county party secretary and you are the county magistrate. I don't like your attitude. You should allow different opinions at work to exist, seek common ground while reserving differences. If you think some of his actions are wrong, you should argue with reason. 11 members of the Standing Committee of Binhai County, major decisions require more than half of the support to pass. How can we reflect the democracy and fairness of our party? You have worked for so many years and don't even understand such a simple truth?"
Xu Shuangqi's old face was a little feverish. Xiang Cheng's words were both a criticism and a reminder to him. As the county magistrate of Binhai County, he did not play the due role. He was too weak in front of Zhang Yang, the new county party secretary. Xu Shuangqi said: "Secretary Xiang, I understand."
Xiang Cheng said: "Being careful in doing things does not mean being timid, and being cautious does not mean being afraid of things. You are an old comrade who has worked for many years, so I don't need to remind you of these things."
Xu Shuangqi kept nodding.
The Finance Director of Binhai County ** looked at Zhang Yang pitifully and said, "Secretary Zhang, our county really doesn't have that much money. Last year, the county's total fiscal revenue was 85 million, and the first quarter of this year was not over. However, from the current situation, it is only about 20 million. Replace street lights in the urban area, build guard booths at various important intersections, and improve urban greening. These three things alone cost at least 10 million yuan. We can't afford this money, we really can't give it..." ** was crying. Now the whole county is staring at him. All departments want money. However, Binhai County's finance has had a deficit for three consecutive years. I don't know if the salary of the government department can be paid this month. The new county magistrate suddenly had a whim and wanted to carry out municipal construction. Where can he get money?
Official Zhang widened his eyes: "How did you, the Finance Director? Ten million is not a big amount, you can't even get this little money?"
** said: "Secretary Zhang, our total fiscal revenue for the whole year is only more than 80 million, and 10 million is not a small amount. I am not afraid to tell you the truth, there will be problems with the government's salary next month."
Zhang Yang said: "I was wondering, the administrative center is so beautifully built, and the county leaders live in sea view villas. Now you tell me that you have no money, where is the money?"
**Sentenceless.
Zhang Yang said: "I cry with me now, why did you do it long ago? If you have money to build an administrative center and the money to build a sea view villa, you can invest it in municipal construction. Will Binhai look like the chaotic appearance now? Ah? What is it? What is a face project? I think this administrative center is the biggest face project. What is a county party committee and county government building? Why can a county party secretary use such a large office? And where these county leaders live, the provincial leaders do not enjoy such treatment." Zhang Daren got angry, and his tone was held in his stomach for many days. Unfortunately, he caught up with it. He made Secretary Zhang angry.
After finally waiting for Secretary Zhang to finish his anger, ** said: "Secretary Zhang, our administrative office building still owes them more than 30 million yuan!"
Zhang Yang pointed at **, and did not say anything, and slapped a fierce shot on the table: "Nonsense! What does it mean to be indistinguishable from the primary and secondary? I want to build more than 30 guard booths, and some people are talking behind their backs. How much does the infrastructure of such a large office building cost? How much electricity is spent every year? How many staff are needed to maintain this building? Why can the county finance be spent on government officials? Why should you spend money on the people? You have no money here, and someone over there said I am doing a face-saving project? **, please hear it clearly, and you can find a way for me to find a way for this money. Within a month, all the street lights must be lit up, and all the guard booths at major intersections must be built. If you can't afford to pay, you are not worthy of being the director of the finance department."
**I really want to cry without tears. This is so domineering. I am the director of the Finance Department. Do you really treat me as the God of Wealth? I really have no money. Do you think our family can print it? ** said: "Secretary Zhang, if you really say that, I can't do anything. I can't take out the money. The accounts of the Finance Department are there, and I really can't take out the money."
Zhang Yang said: "Give you three days and find a way to go by yourself."
