Chapter 123 Appearance in Ninghai
"Secretary Yi, I think the most important thing for us to do things is to have reliable people. Without reliable people, the originally good policies will become policies that harm the people.
I think the most important thing now is to replace the leaders of those important positions with people who can get things done and do practical things. "Qi Tongwei earnestly put forward his suggestions.
Through observation and understanding during this period, he has roughly grasped the situation of several teams in Ninghai County.
Although Yi Xuexue is the county party secretary, he is not good at fighting. In addition, he only took office at the beginning of this year and has no control over the Standing Committee.
At present, the most influential person in the Standing Committee is Executive Deputy County Mayor Chen Shihu. The only two people who clearly support Yi Xuexue, the top leader of the county party committee, are Deputy Secretary Miao Xinyu and Organization Department Minister Tang Xiaobin.
On the contrary, there are four people who are in the same faction as Chen Shihu. In addition, he has been working in Ninghai County for many years, and he has confidants in various departments. Almost all policies cannot bypass him.
Yi Xuexi nodded: "Okay, I agree with this plan, but the specific candidate needs to be carefully considered."
Although he has been in Ninghai for more than half a year, he still dare not say who are loyal and who are treacherous, and he is not sure who is suitable to use. This is why Qi Tongwei said that he is not good at fighting.
If it were Qi Tongwei, the first thing he would do is learn from Sha Ruijin, use his authority as the top leader to firmly control the Standing Committee, marginalize those who disobey, and then consider economic development.
Qi Tongwei pondered for a moment and said, "First, the public security and discipline inspection departments. I think we should find Secretary Li of the Discipline Inspection Commission and Director Gao Yuliang of the Municipal Public Security Bureau. The leaders of these two departments need people who are upright and good at fighting.
We also need to find a way to transfer some discipline inspection cadres and public security police from other places. They don’t have much friendship with local officials and can conduct investigations more objectively. "
Yi Xuexue agreed, adding: "I will contact Secretary Li and Director Gao in the near future to seek their opinions and suggestions."
"Secretary Yi, I think we can first create a clean and upright atmosphere, carry out a rectification of the work style of cadres throughout the county, eliminate some bad apples, and change the reputation of cadres in the eyes of the masses.
Then we replaced them with leaders who were more capable of getting things done, and in one fell swoop, we reversed Ninghai’s backwardness.”
Yi Xuexi nodded in understanding, "County Magistrate Qi, when do you think it would be a good time to hold your induction meeting?"
"How about tomorrow morning?" Qi Tongwei thought for a while and said.
"Okay, then tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock, in the government auditorium, you can talk about the problem of cadres' work style, and I will take the opportunity to announce the launch of the rectification of cadres' work style." Yi Xuexi thought for a while and said.
"Okay, Secretary Yi."
After the conversation, Qi Tongwei did not go to his office, but went directly to the hotel. He had not received any good news during this period of time and was indeed a little tired.
He was going to the hotel to wash up properly, so as to appear in Ninghai in the best possible image and start his journey to the ministry.
It is said that the county party committee office is a leaky bucket. Less than 10 minutes after Qi Tongwei left, most people in the entire county party committee compound knew that he had had a conversation with Yi Xuexue.
Fortunately, the two had a closed-door conversation, otherwise there is no way the content of the conversation would have been leaked.
As for Qi Tongwei's background, these people did not have that much power to investigate it thoroughly. They only knew that Qi Tongwei was from the Secretariat of the Provincial Party Committee Office.
At the same time, the county party committee office also officially issued a notice that a meeting to welcome the new county magistrate will be held at 9 am tomorrow. This news further confirmed the rumors.
After washing up, Qi Tongwei picked up the hotel phone and called his wife, asking her to postpone the investment promotion.
Qi Tongwei's original plan was that after he took office, his wife would use her position in the business community to introduce some businessmen to Ninghai to invest.
After half a month of investigation, Qi Tongwei also realized that the situation in Ninghai County was very complicated and not suitable for large-scale investment attraction.
In order to truly promote economic development, we must first solve local political problems and completely change the political ecology of Ninghai County. Only in this way can we attract more investors and achieve sustainable development.
Attracting investment at the present time will only tarnish Ninghai's image and will be detrimental to its future development.
After finishing the call with his wife, Qi Tongwei called his teacher Gao Yuliang, who is now the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee and Director of the Public Security Bureau of Luzhou City.
Qi Tongwei reported his schedule for the past half month and told Gao Yuliang that he would visit him the day after tomorrow.
"Plan before taking action, Tongwei, you have matured." Gao Yuliang said with emotion.
Qi Tongwei smiled and said, "Teacher Gao, you flatter me. I still have a lot to learn from you."
"You, let me tell you something. Lü Zhengming, the chief prosecutor of Ninghai Procuratorate, also graduated from the Law Department of Handan University. He was my class of 84. He has been working in Ninghai for more than three years. If you have any questions, you can consult him."
"No problem, thank you, teacher." This is the reason why Qi Tongwei and Gao Yuliang have a good relationship. The power of the Handa Gang cannot be underestimated.
Afterwards, the two chatted for a while and exchanged some political views.
The next morning, after having breakfast at the hotel, Qi Tongwei picked up a newspaper and started reading.
Since his rebirth, he has developed the habit of reading newspapers and watching the news broadcast, always paying attention to current affairs at home and abroad, and thinking about how to use effective information.
Time passed by, and before he knew it, it was almost 9 o'clock. At this time, there was a knock on the door. Qi Tongwei put down the newspaper, got up and opened the door, only to see Liu Gang, director of the county party committee office, standing at the door.
After a brief greeting, the two went to the venue together.
Under the guidance of Liu Gang, Qi Tongwei entered the venue on time, and immediately, the whole audience burst into warm applause.
Qi Tongwei smiled, waved to everyone, then slowly walked to his seat and sat down.
After everyone quieted down, County Party Secretary Yi Xuexue began to read the appointment documents and delivered a warm welcome speech.
Next, it was Qi Tongwei's turn to speak.
“I am very honored to work in Ninghai. This is the trust and cultivation of the organization in me, and it is also an important opportunity in my life.
I will take this appointment as a new starting point, strengthen my ideals and convictions, bear in mind my original aspiration and mission, always be loyal and honest to the Party, and implement the Party's purpose with practical actions.
Ninghai has been a place with developed commerce since ancient times, with rich natural resources and cultural heritage, but now it leaves people with negative impressions such as poor conditions and weak foundations.
This phenomenon is thought-provoking and reminds us to face reality and actively seek ways to solve problems.”
Qi Tongwei changed the subject and continued, "Half a month ago, I declined the farewell ceremony arranged by the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department and came to Ninghai alone to start a research trip that lasted more than half a month.
Through field visits and exchanges with grassroots people, I have a deeper understanding of Ninghai, and at the same time I have also felt the resentment and dissatisfaction of the people.
Some of our cadres have serious image problems. Not only have they failed to perform their duties well, they have also used their positions to seek personal gain, damaging the interests of the masses, and ultimately causing the Party and the government to bear a bad name.
This situation must be radically changed.
I have already communicated with Secretary Yi yesterday. Next, we will focus on rectifying the behavior of cadres who do not act, act recklessly, or act slowly. We will deal with them as soon as we find them, and will never tolerate or condone corruption."
After Qi Tongwei finished speaking, Yi Xuexue led the applause.
Qi Tongwei's words touched his heart. He had long wanted to put an end to this chaos.
