Xia Li asked doubtfully: "Yu Yan, what kind of inside information is this? Your friends in the capital must have heard something about it."
Yu Yan smiled and said: "Secretary, don't worry. If I have inside information, I will inform you as soon as possible..."
Charlie started laughing.
He did not doubt Yu Yan's words. Yu Yan had already helped him a lot. Considering the age gap between the two parties, it was an extraordinary fate to have such a friendship.
Xia Li untied the knot in his heart. The next conversation was really more relaxed. Xia Li was still very concerned about the situation in Taocheng County. After all, it could be regarded as the real starting point of his career. Before, he was just an ordinary person in the Bureau of Agriculture. Work. Just different positions.
Xia Li was very interested and asked very detailed questions. Yu Yan didn't mind the trouble and answered them one by one. The two started talking nonsense.
The next morning, Yu Yan, accompanied by Liu Wei, continued to go to the Provincial Department of Transportation to do business. The leaders of the Department of Transportation were generous and approved a special fund of 300,000 yuan for road transportation construction in the impoverished mountainous areas of Beiluan District. .
Yu Yan returned with a full load. He returned to Taocheng County and summoned Beiluan District Party Committee Secretary Ma Changji and District Mayor Liu Ye. He told them that these 700,000 funds must be earmarked and all used for traffic improvement in the backward cities of Beiluan District. Above. Do not use it for other purposes.
Ma Changji "sit at home behind closed doors and the money comes from the sky". He got a huge sum of 700,000 yuan for no reason. Needless to mention the joy in his heart. Regarding the instructions of Minister Yu, he was only following orders. He patted his chest to show that he asked the leader. Don't worry. I will never dare to disobey Minister Yu's instructions. I will definitely get this thing done.
Yu Yan took the lead with a smile. He was very trustworthy to Ma Changji.
At the end of June 1992, Antai City officially approved the establishment of "Taocheng County Energy Industry Management Company" and "China Star Energy Group Company". Two sets of brands and one set of personnel. The name "Energy Management Company" will be used internally and "China Star" externally. Energy Group Company".
The administrative structure of this energy company is set at the deputy county level. It is directly under the management of Taocheng County Government. The company's leadership team is in principle arranged by the Taocheng County Party Committee and submitted to the city for approval.
Antai City attaches great importance to this work. County Party Secretary ** and County Magistrate Ma He went to the city three times. The first time was to report to Liu Xiangdong. The second time was to report to Municipal Party Secretary Zhang Siwen. The third time was at the Municipal Party Committee Plenary Session. Conducted comprehensive reports to all municipal party committee leaders. Ma He gave the lecture three times and ** served as a sparring partner. After all, economic construction work is led by the government. This matter has always been planned by Ma He. ** participated in it. It was entirely because he was For the sake of the county party secretary, he should be given this face.
Lao Zhang knew that he did not understand economic construction and was quite able to hide his clumsiness in front of his superiors. He basically said nothing and only expressed his opinions at appropriate times to support Ma He's opinions.
Since the "People's Daily" officially published the editorial, **'s attitude has changed significantly. At least on the surface, he no longer engages in high-profile struggles and has begun to calm down and do his work well. Such is the overall environment. The situation in the county It is even more complicated. Yu Yan is extremely strong. ** also realizes that if it continues to be tough, the consequences will only get worse. Moreover, the plan of Mahe is consistent with the original intention of Antai City to unify the dispatch and management of the energy industry. It has won the support of the city and the province. With the approval of the leaders here, ** has no reason to object. If it is done well, ** may also be able to profit from it and get a share of the pie. In any case, he is still the secretary of the Taocheng County Party Committee. Any item in Taocheng County He can't avoid his grades. Likewise, he can't avoid any of Taocheng's mistakes.
The city's support for Taocheng County's plan is not just superficial, but also has certain practical actions. For example, the level of the energy management company is designated as deputy county level. This has no precedent before. Usually a county. It is difficult for a county-affiliated deputy county-level unit to emerge. Moreover, the city has also made it clear that the leadership team of this management company will be configured by Taocheng County. As for reporting to the city for approval, it is just a formality. After all, the appointment and removal of deputy county-level cadres . It needs to be approved by the city. But anyone with a discerning eye can see that the power to appoint and remove deputy county-level cadres lies with the county. The city will not veto the county’s opinions. In addition, the city has also allocated two million. Zhang Siwen and Liu Xiangdong both agreed to go to the province to get more funds. As long as Taocheng can do this job well and achieve results, there will be greater support from the city and province.
"Minister Yu, come and make one."
This was in the small box of Yinlong Villa. Ma He raised his wine glass to Yu Yan.
Yu Yan invites guests.
Originally, Ma He proposed to have a drink at home. Yu Yan smiled and declined. He couldn't always go to Magistrate Ma's house to take advantage. The weather was getting hot. The private room at Yinlong Villa was equipped with air conditioning. It was better to drink here. Comfortable.
Ma He now has a better understanding of Yu Yan. This guy is not just someone with a background. He is indeed very smart. Yu Yan proposed this energy management company when he first arrived in Taocheng County last year. At that time, Ma He He is unwilling to do this in his heart, because when it comes to implementation, there are many problems. It takes a lot of energy to solve them one by one. But now that he is doing this, the leaders of the city and the province all support it. Ma He has it. Such a lucky draw. I can’t help but express my admiration for Yu Yan in my heart.
This young man has something inside his head. He is so powerful.
"I really didn't expect that both the city and the province would support our plan..."
Ma He and Yu Yan had a drink and said with emotion.
Yu Yan smiled and said: "This can be regarded as a new exploration. The original intention of the province is to let Antai City have unified management and unified dispatch. If the principle and model are still the same as before, extensive and extensive farming, the mining companies can develop on their own. .Then what’s the point of this unified coordination? Many more institutions have been added in vain to support many staff. There is no benefit at all.”
Ma He nodded: "Well, the city leaders may just want to come up with an innovative model. Let's take the first step and see the effect.
At this point, Ma He was a little worried again. The support from the city and the province is support. Of course, it is a big credit to get it done. With this credit and Zhang Siwen's care, Ma He may be able to get rid of dry years. The destiny of the second child is to achieve positive results. However, there are risks. Now that the momentum has been built, everyone is watching. If you can't become famous, it will be terrible. In the eyes of the superior leaders, I'm afraid he will be a loser. He was determined. He only had so much ability.
Risks and benefits have always coexisted.
Yu Yan understood Ma He's current thoughts very well. He smiled and said: "County Magistrate, I don't think there is anything to worry about. The matter is now over. There is no way to go back. Over in the capital, my friend called me a few days ago and said yes. The matter has already begun to take shape. The equipment has been contacted by the Soviet Union. It is the most advanced mining equipment. The price is also relatively reasonable. The contract will be signed soon and the equipment will be shipped over. This will be done by their company. Go and complete it. Then the county will just sign a contract with their company. I told her what the price was when it was taken from the Soviet Union. It was also the same price for our county. Only the shipping fee was added. Everything else was not included. "
Ma He was surprised and happy. He didn't expect Xue Nannan's efficiency to be so high. He thought that doing business with foreigners was not easy. There were so many procedures. It would take more than half a year to really see results. Unexpectedly, within two months, the matter was about to come to fruition. He immediately said: "Haha, transfer at the original price. I'm afraid it's not good. Although Minister Yu is to support Taocheng's economic construction, in business, reasonable profits are still There should be. I think it should be increased by 15%. This is a relatively fair profit."
The more you laugh, the more you laugh.
Ma He really regarded him as a friend. He added 15%, no more, no less. It would not harm the public or private interests, nor would Xue Nannan suffer. It can be seen that Ma He still understands Yu Yan very well.
"County head, it doesn't matter. Just transfer it at the original price. Xue Nannan has more ways to make money. She doesn't care if our county gives her this little profit. Besides, the imported equipment this time is not just for us. Other equipment, if you calculate it all together, it will cost several hundred million rubles. If it does not make up for the price difference in our county, we can just make up for it elsewhere."
Yu Yan said with a smile.
Xue Nannan was also a big spender. He combined several companies and bought equipment worth five or six billion rubles from the Soviet Union. The payment was to be made in installments over three years. The contract was clearly written. The settlement was in rubles, not US dollars.
Ma He was stunned: "Equipment worth several hundred million rubles."
I never thought that that beautiful young girl would have such a big deal. According to the current official comparison of the ruble and the US dollar, what a concept. Ma He felt dizzy just thinking about it.
"Yes. In addition, there is something about the loan. If the county magistrate has time, we will make a trip to the capital in the near future. Meet with representatives of foreign-funded institutions. Let's discuss the conditions first. This It would be better to settle things as early as possible."
Yu Yan, however, looked relaxed. It seemed that hundreds of millions of rubles were just a casual thing and he didn't care about it.
Ma He looked at Yu Yan in confusion. He was a little confused whether he was really confident or just pretending to be mysterious. But it seemed that even if he was pretending to be mysterious, he still had to be confident. This thing couldn't be done. Just talk with your mouth. You need to see the truth.
We need to really bring the machinery and equipment back from the north.
"Ah. The loan matter has also been settled."
Ma He asked in surprise.
This efficiency is really impressive. It seems that the reputation is well deserved.
"Well, I contacted two institutions. They all have this intention. One is from the United States. It is said to be a subsidiary of Goldman Sachs. The other is from Japan. It is a semi-official organization. It has a relatively friendly attitude towards us in external publicity. I am willing. Provide low-interest loans or even interest-free loans. The conditions in the United States are a bit more stringent and the interest rates are also relatively high. Of course, the specific situation will not be known until we go there. Negotiations must be done before we can touch upon it. Know their cards."
Ma He is also a very decisive person. He immediately said: "Okay. Let's go and have a look in a few days."
Yu Yan smiled and nodded. He clinked glasses with Ma He and took a sip of wine. He said, "County Magistrate, I'm afraid there is something else that needs to be settled before I go."
Ma He understood what Yu Yan was referring to. Hao Mei said: "Well, we should first determine the team of the energy company. It's easier to say for others. It's the candidate for the general manager. I'm afraid it's not that easy to decide. I heard Secretary Zhang intends to let Lao Su take the lead."
"Su Zhiqiang. Hehe. He should stop thinking about this good thing."
Yu Yan smiled lightly and said with a bit of disdain.
Su Zhiqiang is indeed desperately fighting for the position of general manager of this energy company.
After Ma He tinkered with the preliminary plan, as soon as the news leaked out, many cadres in Taocheng County immediately took action. They are always particularly sensitive in officialdom. Although it is not clear what kind of model this energy company will eventually take. Operation. But as soon as you hear the name, you know that it is a good job. Unified management of the county's coal energy. There must be many benefits in this.
However, all the cadres put together are not as determined as Su Zhiqiang.
Su Zhiqiang was almost depressed to death now. Yu Yan was so unceremonious that he completely ignored him. Two of his three bureau chiefs rebelled. The remaining one was forced to send Yu Yan to Beiluan. In name, he was sent to Beiluan. District Chief, but there is Ma Changji above and a group of Beiluan cadres below. Everyone is loyal to Yu Yan. Everyone knows that Liu Ye once made Yu Yan famous. Now Liu Ye has gone to Beiluan. If you can give him good results Eat. Liu Ye is in Beiluan District. I'm afraid he can't even direct a temporary worker.
Coal Director Wu Wei and Mining Director Mao Shi fully followed Yu Yan's instructions and launched a vigorous safety production inspection throughout the county. In addition, Yu Yan held the power of the organization and replaced several people who did not pay attention to production safety in one go. The head of the state-owned coal mine was killed to serve as a warning to others. Now all the coal mine leaders in Taocheng County only recognize Minister Yu. I don’t know who County Mayor Su is.
There's no way around it. People are always so realistic. Whoever controls his own wealth and future is the master.
Su Zhiqiang really lived a day's office life with a newspaper, a cup of tea and a magazine. Almost no one asked him for instructions and reports. He went directly to the Organization Department to report to Yuyan.
Moreover, it was more convenient for Yuyan to visit the cadres in Xiabian District to ask for instructions and reports from him. Su Zhiqiang also went to his hometown several times. The cadres below were polite to him on the surface, but in fact no one looked down on him. Su Zhiqiang himself felt that It was so boring. I was so angry that I didn’t go anywhere. I just ran to the city.
Taocheng doesn't leave you here. You have your own place to stay.
Su Zhiqiang couldn't get along in Taocheng and had to find a way to transfer him. But it was not easy for him to be transferred as a deputy county-level cadre. There were more benches in the city. Su Zhiqiang didn't want to sit on it. He had to find a position no matter what. As a result, the errands of real power become more difficult. The transfer cannot be done in a short time.
Now it was suddenly necessary to establish this energy management company. Su Zhiqiang seemed to see a ray of light in the darkness. His mind started to work again. As long as he could win this position, wouldn't it be a bright future?
You have to go to ** about this.
The city has made it clear that the leadership team of the energy management company will be arranged by Taocheng County. ** should be able to speak. After all, he is also the secretary of the county party committee and is in charge of the work.
Su Zhiqiang felt that his conditions were the most suitable and he had the most sufficient reasons to seek an official position.
He is the deputy county magistrate in charge of mining work. He has a sufficient level and rich experience. The position of general manager of the energy management company is tailor-made for him. There is no need to choose. The reason why he has ended up like this. .It's all because I offended Yue Yan. Why did I offend Yu Yan? It wasn't just for ** to charge into battle. Now something happened. ** can't leave him alone.
After figuring out the connection, Su Zhiqiang took two cigarettes and two bottles of wine and went straight to **'s house. ** was a couple who lived in Taocheng. His wife also worked in the provincial capital. He took an internal retirement last year. I came here with **. Her children are all out of town. It is said that she has a daughter who works in the capital. No one has seen her.
Su Zhiqiang stayed at **'s house for more than an hour before saying goodbye. When he went out, he had a smile on his face. He seemed to be very satisfied with the effect of the visit. ** must have given him some kind of promise.
The next day, ** personally called and invited Ma He to sit in his office. He had something to discuss with County Magistrate Ma. His words were very polite.
Ma He put down the phone and smiled slightly.
It is estimated that Lao Zhang wants to tell him about the team configuration of the energy company. These days, there are many cadres running to his house. Everyone wants to take a bite of fat. Qiu Chuji is the most diligent. Qiu Chuji Ji is now the director of the county transportation bureau. Qiu Chuji has no objection to this transfer. The director of the transportation bureau is not bad, and he has moved into the city. The conditions in Chengguan Town are much better than those in Chengxi District. Qiu Chuji I was very satisfied at first. As soon as the energy company's plan was announced, Lao Qiu couldn't sit still. He rolled up his sleeves and wanted to fight for it.
Yes. Everyone is motivated.
Ma He didn't blame him at all. He even took the initiative to think of Qiu Chuji and planned to fight for him. After all, this energy company is directly managed by the government. Ma He did not say that he had 100% decision-making power in terms of staffing. .It should also have 60 to 70% decision-making power. If the energy company fails to do a good job, the first person responsible is him, the county magistrate.
Qiu Chuji has a straightforward personality. He has good abilities and is very loyal to himself. When the opportunity is right, fight for him. Why not?
But after drinking with Yu Yan yesterday, Ma He didn't think so.
What Yu Yan said makes sense. Let's see what Lao Zhang has to say now.
When I arrived at **'s office, ** was unexpectedly polite. I had been waiting in the sofa area for guests for a long time. As soon as I saw Ma He, I immediately came up with a smile and shook hands with Ma He. ** had never done that before. You are so polite. Even in front of the county magistrate of Mahe, the top leader still carries himself very well.
"Come on, county magistrate. Please have a seat. Please have a seat."
After shaking hands, he greeted Ma He repeatedly, and the two sat down respectively.
There are two reasons why ** is so polite. One is that the current situation in the county is very complicated. There are four deputies in key positions: Ma He, Jacky Li, Mou Zhen, and Yu Yan. None of them are on the same page as **. **The authority of the county party committee secretary is greatly restricted. The second is the personnel arrangement of the energy company. Ma He has a great say. **If you want to achieve your goals, you must be polite to Ma He.
