Zhang Xinxian sighed: "Mr. Duan, you have also seen the situation in the development zone. The more than fifty people are all related households, and there are only a few who can really work. Moreover, there are only tens of thousands of yuan in the account of the development zone, including wages.
It all depends on county financial allocations. It’s hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. Even if you make me the director of the development zone, I can’t build the development zone!”. [ ]
Duan Zetao nodded and said: "Well, Zhang Xinxian! You are trying to control my army! I have also seen what you said. I am going to implement competitive recruitment and target assessment in the development zone, and assign investment tasks to people.
Those who can't complete the task will be laid off. Regarding funding, I will find a way for you. The starting capital is two million. If you can't raise it, then I will do it myself!"
Zhang Xinxian stood up excitedly, "A scholar will die for his confidant! Although I am a humble person, I hope to be your pawn and charge forward at the front. If the development zone can't get through, you will blame me!".
Duan Zetao laughed loudly and said: "Haha, what age has it been and you are still doing this? You want to be Zhao Zilong, I am not Liu Bei! But don't worry, I support you, just do it boldly and sort it out first.
Give me a reform plan and annual work plan, and I will submit it to the Standing Committee for discussion."
Duan Zetao and Zhang Xinxian chatted and laughed and left the office. Jiang Xueqing and other middle-level cadres were still waiting outside. Duan Zetao directly announced his decision. Jiang Xueqing was temporarily suspended and planned to transfer him. The director of the development zone was appointed by Zhang Xinxian to preside over the overall work.
.
Jiang Xueqing was confused for a moment. She didn't expect that Duan Zetao was so disrespectful and dismissed her from class. She was so angry that her originally beautiful and delicate face became a little twisted and ferocious. She completely forgot about Liu Mingzheng's warning to her and said in a hysterical voice:
"Duan Zetao, I didn't make a mistake, why do you dismiss me from my post! You are just the deputy county magistrate, not the county magistrate! You are not the one who dominates Gulin County! Don't think that I am easy to mess with. I, the director of the development zone, was appointed by the county party committee.
You have no right to avoid it!”.
Duan Zetao saw Jiang Xueqing showing her true shrew face, pointing to the development zone covered with weeds outside, and sneered: "You didn't make a mistake?! It was the biggest mistake that the development zone became what it is now under your management! That's right!
, I have no power to remove you from office, but I do have the power to suspend you! Regarding your issue, I will raise it to the Standing Committee for discussion. I have never thought about covering up the sky in Gulin County. I just let those corpses eat nothing.
People can no longer take the state’s salary and not do practical things!”.
That night, Jiang Xueqing immediately found Liu Mingzheng, crying and fussing. Liu Mingzheng was also angry. This Duan Zetao had gone too far! It depends on the owner when beating a dog. Does he still care about himself as the county magistrate? He treats him everywhere.
He is tolerant, but he goes even further, which is intolerable!
He sneered and said: "You really treat me like a piece of soft clay! I'm going to let you know who has the final say in Gulin County!".
At the Standing Committee meeting the next day, Liu Mingzheng fired at Duan Zetao, "I heard that Deputy County Magistrate Duan dismissed Director Jiang appointed by the county committee without consulting anyone in the development zone yesterday. Who did this to you?"
Power, do you still have an organization in your eyes, do you have me as the county magistrate?" Liu Mingzheng said angrily, slapping the table.
Most of the members of the Standing Committee received the news last night. They also have many relatives in the development zone. Duan Zetao's operation in the development zone violated their interests, so they all turned their attention to Duan Zetao to see how he would explain.
Ma Fugui just found out about this, and he felt a little unhappy. This Duan Zetao was too domineering. He dismissed a senior cadre without even saying hello. He was too arrogant. If things go on like this, he, the county party committee secretary, would
He could no longer control him, so he said with a stern face: "Comrade Zetao, is this really true?".
Duan Zetao smiled slightly and said: "Since County Magistrate Liu mentioned this matter, I also want to report some of my thoughts on the development zone work to the Standing Committee. First of all, I want to correct a wording that Magistrate Liu just used. I
The request was to 'suspend' Jiang Xueqing, not to remove him from office. As the deputy county magistrate in charge, I did not exceed my authority by doing this! And I think it is a shame for our Gulin County to allow a person like Jiang Xueqing, who has never done anything, to hold such an important position as the director of the Development Zone!"
Seeing that Liu Mingzheng was getting angry again, Duan Zetao made a gesture and said in a more serious tone: "Please allow me to finish my words first! Everyone knows the situation of the development zone. Three years after its establishment, tens of millions of dollars were invested, and now the land in the development zone is
But it’s overgrown with weeds! As the first person in charge of the development zone, Jiang Xueqing cannot escape the blame. Shouldn’t such a person be removed from office?!”
"If everyone thinks there is anything wrong with what I have done, I can review it to the Standing Committee and reinstate Jiang Xueqing, but for this mess in the development zone, I have no choice but to step aside and make way for someone more talented. I have to let the horse run away and not eat grass.
I don’t have that kind of ability, and I can’t bear the responsibility for the failure of the development zone to be held accountable by Secretary Sun of the prefectural committee!”.
Liu Mingzheng said angrily: "Duan Zetao! You are threatening the organization with your work! Let me tell you, without Butcher Zhang, we can't eat pigs with hair! The situation in the development zone cannot be opened. There are objective and historical reasons for it. Can you guarantee that?
Are you sure you can build the development zone?!".
Duan Zetao slapped the table and stood up, saying tit for tat: "Of course I can guarantee it! If the investment amount of the development zone cannot reach 80 million within a year, I can take the blame and resign! But the premise is that the development zone must follow my ideas!
If anyone here can make the same guarantee as me, I can also abdicate and make way for others!"
The Standing Committee members were all shocked. One hundred million! It was almost several times the annual fiscal and tax revenue of Gulin County! This Duan Zetao was too courageous. He was clearly gambling with his own political life!
Liu Mingzheng was completely speechless. He did not have the confidence to guarantee that he would attract 100 million yuan in investment within a year. Duan Zetao's completely unconventional tactics completely disrupted his plan. He originally wanted to overturn Duan Zetao's decision through a vote of the Standing Committee.
, but now that Duan Zetao has issued a military order, no one on the Standing Committee can speak.
Without the voice of opposition, Duan Zetao began to carry out drastic reforms in the development zone, implemented competitive recruitment and target assessment, allocated the investment target of 100 million to everyone, and signed a letter of responsibility. If he could not complete the task, he would be laid off. He took the lead.
He signed a letter of responsibility for the investment promotion task worth RMB 30 million, and Zhang Xinxian also signed a letter of responsibility worth RMB 10 million.
Although those related households were dissatisfied, they had no choice but to find connections and take the initiative to transfer out of the development zone. Some people with ideas and connections stayed. Although this liability certificate carries risks, it is also an opportunity. Those who were transferred
Those people left a lot of seats free, and those with the ability can go up. In the end, the staff in the development zone was reduced to more than 20 people, but they were all elite soldiers, and the development zone took on a completely new look.
Duan Zetao's second fire once again shocked the entire Gulin County. Some people secretly claimed that Duan Zetao was a 'lunatic' and was completely unreasonable. He was supposed to rectify the mess in the development zone, but there must be many obstacles. Duan Zetao directly put himself
Zhang Xinxian admired him so much that he became more and more determined to follow Duan Zetao.
After Sun Xianglong learned about Duan Zetao's actions during this period, he said to Zhang Xiaochuan with a smile: "What a 'Crazy Duan', so crazy! Without this crazy energy, how could I stir up the stagnant water of Gulin?"
