Cui Qingwen is not very old. He is a 40-year-old division-level cadre. He has worked in the United Front Work Department of the Dongshan Municipal Party Committee for almost 20 years. He is rich in experience. He has also been in the position of deputy minister for five years.
It’s time for promotion.
Cui Qingwen was still a little surprised to be suddenly nominated as United Front Minister by the Municipal Party Committee.
As a department-level cadre, Cui Qingwen has more or less managed his own network of relationships, but when it comes to helping him get promoted, these networks are really not very useful.
Therefore, when the news came out, Cui Qingwen felt a little uneasy. He was not only looking forward to his future career, but also worried about whether this matter would be successful.
After all, as long as a formal appointment is not made with the approval of the provincial party committee, the municipal party committee's intention may be overturned.
Of course, most of the standing committee members of the municipal party committee, especially the secretary and the mayor, unanimously agreed. This recommendation carries a very heavy weight. Under normal circumstances, the provincial party committee will not object.
But the current situation is more sensitive, especially since Ma Feiming, the governor's favorite before Longzheng Festival, failed to succeed. The candidate proposed by the new deputy secretary Qiu of the provincial party committee also failed due to the strong opposition of the Dongshan Municipal Committee. So the provincial party committee
It is difficult to say whether the candidates can be successfully nominated by the Dongshan Municipal Committee.
However, news in officialdom always spreads very quickly. Logically speaking, the news on the Standing Committee should be sealed relatively tightly, but in just one afternoon, it became known to everyone.
Faced with colleagues or friends who rushed over to express their congratulations, Cui Qingwen could only say "haha" to express his gratitude. At the same time, he said that he was completely unaware and had no idea what the superiors meant. It was still difficult to determine what would happen in the future.
etc.
After returning home, his wife also rushed back, and the two of them chatted about the matter.
"You have been a deputy minister for five or six years. Although you are not a standing official, your qualifications are definitely sufficient." His wife said to Cui Qingwen, "The municipal party committee is still very discerning and I can see that you are a down-to-earth person.
"
"It's not enough to just do things in a down-to-earth manner," Cui Qingwen said. "I have been working in the United Front Work Department for almost twenty years, and I have seen a lot of things here. In fact, I never thought that one day I would be able to take a normal position.
This municipal party committee nomination is indeed a bit unexpected."
From Cui Qingwen's point of view, let alone whether the superiors wanted to parachute a minister, there were two or three strong competitors within the United Front Work Department of the Municipal Party Committee, all of whom had strong connections. He really didn't think he would have a chance before.
Become a minister.
Although he is only a deputy department-level cadre, as usual, the United Front Minister will join the Standing Committee, so he is a highly valuable deputy department-level cadre. And based on experience, if something unexpected happens in the local area, for example
If a situation suddenly arises in the county or city below Dongshan Temple, then there will be many opportunities for him, the United Front Minister, to take charge of the overall situation.
Once you have such an experience, it will be much easier to get further opportunities in the future.
All in all, this is a very rare promotion opportunity.
"Since the matter has not been settled yet, do you want to go to Secretary Mu's place for a walk?" his wife reminded Cui Qingwen.
"It's hard to talk about this matter." Cui Qingwen hesitated and said, "Secretary Mu has not been in Dongshan City for a long time, and she is a female leader. She is still cautious in some aspects, but I heard that this time Ye Shi
The opinion of the mayor is very important. If he had not expressed his position in the Standing Committee, this matter would not be my fault. You must know that the current Organization Minister Lin Jiwen and others are very close to Mayor Ye."
"Then you can go and pay a visit to Mayor Ye," his wife said.
"The secretary and the mayor are both great figures. It's hard to say which one is more important." Cui Qingwen scratched his head in distress and said, "If you lean on one, you will offend the other. It's really frustrating.
I don’t have any confidence in my heart.”
If placed in an ordinary city, the secretary and the mayor are always representatives of two distinct forces. But in Dongshan City, the situation seems a bit ambiguous, and between Mu Wanrong and Ye Kai, who is in charge?
The advantages are really difficult for outsiders to see clearly.
Even if Cui Qingwen is in the Municipal Party Committee and serves as a deputy in a department such as the United Front Work Department, he cannot see through the relationship between them, so he is a little unsure before making an important decision.
"But it's okay if you don't express your attitude." His wife reminded him, "No one will accept you if you are the one on the other side of the wall."
"Yes, this is also a very practical question." Cui Qingwen nodded.
In the officialdom, the entanglement of various forces is too complicated. If an individual wants to survive in this environment, he must attach himself to a taller tree. At least he must have a few close friends of equal strength to get together.
Hug the group together to keep warm, otherwise, individual heroism will not work, and sooner or later someone will overshadow you.
Cui Qingwen was well aware of the risks in this officialdom, so he was very conflicted at this time.
He also has some worries. If he appears too active at this time, it will easily arouse the resentment of others. If either Mu Wanrong or Ye Kai suddenly has an opinion about him, then in the following procedures,
I'm afraid it won't be so easy to pass his appointment.
What's more, I don't know if I can pass the provincial party committee now.
"Otherwise, why don't you just calm down and take a look?" Cui Qingwen thought about it for a while and felt that it was better to be still than to move.
In this case, the more you do, the more chances you will make mistakes, and vice versa is a safe approach.
But just after he made his decision, a phone call came.
"Hello, this is Cui Qingwen, may I ask..." Cui Qingwen answered the phone and thought it was someone coming to congratulate him, but his voice immediately changed, "Ah, it's Secretary Tang, hello.
OK, what are your instructions?"
After a while, Cui Qingwen put down the phone and sat there in a daze. He said to his wife in confusion, "It's strange. Mayor Ye wants to take me to the province."
"Oh?" His wife was also surprised when she heard this, "What's the matter?"
"According to Mayor Ye's secretary, he is going to the provincial party committee to finalize this appointment." Cui Qingwen said, and he didn't quite believe it. Ye Kaihui personally took him to handle this matter.
.
Generally speaking, after the municipal party committee has reached a consensus and made suggestions to the provincial party committee, the city will not do anything else and will just wait for feedback from the provincial party committee.
During this period, if the parties concerned have some ideas, they can naturally go to the province to find connections.
What Cui Qingwen didn't expect was that the mayor Ye Kai would personally take him to the province and finalize the matter. This really made him feel a little incredible.
Could it be that Secretary Mu doesn’t have any ideas on this matter?
Cui Qingwen couldn't understand the situation, but he knew very well that if Ye Kai took him to the province so openly, Mu Wanrong must have known about it, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to agree to this matter.
"I really can't understand it anymore..." Cui Qingwen sighed.
"Anyway, I think this is a good thing." His wife thought about it for a while and then said, "If Mayor Ye takes you to do things in the province, the success rate will definitely be much higher than if you do it yourself."
Then his wife reminded again, "I've collected the money at home, and it's about a hundred thousand. This time you go to the province, take it all with you, and try to get this thing done at once."
"That's the money to build a house in my hometown. Why did you include this?" Cui Qingwen immediately frowned after hearing this.
"The most important thing now is not to build a house, but to confirm your position." His wife said immediately, "If you really become the Minister of the United Front, then the whole family will be proud of it. How many houses will be built by then?"
Can’t get up?”
"You...you are encouraging me to become a corrupt official..." Cui Qingwen started crying and laughing after hearing this.
"I don't expect you to be a corrupt official. It's enough if you can take care of your family at critical moments." His wife's appetite was not big.
Cui Qingwen thought to himself, if that's all, it's really not that difficult. After becoming a deputy department-level cadre of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee, how many people want to curry favor. In this way, whether the family is doing business or entering the industry,
The system will become much easier.
Even if he only reveals a little bit of his meaning at that time, the people below will handle the matter very thoughtfully, not to mention that he will highlight something in key points.
This is probably the biggest motivation for everyone to make progress as an official.
There are indeed officials who are as honest as water, and there are many of them. There are also officials who are as corrupt as water, and there are many of them. Of course, the most numerous ones are the ones who walk between the two.
They are the backbone of the gray food chain. They haven't committed much crime, but it is inevitable to use their power to seek some small benefits for themselves.
When the water is clear, there will be no fish, and when people observe it, there will be no disciples. This is the law of nature.
Early the next morning, Cui Qingwen went to the city hall and met with Ye Kai.
Ye Kai did not say any nonsense and directly arranged the vehicles. There were four vehicles in total. Everyone did not waste time. After a brief chat, they set off straight to the provincial capital.
Cui Qingwen looked at the receding scenery outside the car window. Although he was thinking about how to deal with his own affairs after going to the province, he felt much more at ease in his heart and did not feel too uneasy.
With Ye Kai, the young mayor, standing up for him, this matter already has a backbone.
"Perhaps, things should go smoothly this time." Cui Qingwen thought in his heart. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
