Section 16: In place

"Hi, it doesn't matter if you have seen it. What's important is that you have to get familiar with it as soon as possible." Zhuang Quan waved his hand and said leisurely: "Ningling and you left more than three years ago have changed a lot, especially the economic development momentum is very strong. However, I heard that it had a slight decline last year, but the growth rate remains in the top five. The total economic output ranked ninth in the province last year, and it was almost at the rate of moving forward one person every year, which also brought great pressure to the cities with Ningling's close ranks."

"Oh, Master Quan, are you putting pressure on me now?" Zhao Guodong naturally would not know nothing about Ningling's current situation. Zhuang Quan said that. Ningling's growth rate has been in the top three in the past few years, once second only to Yongliang. In 1998 and 2000, it reached the second highest in the province, and even reached the first place in the province in 1999. However, when the economic growth of all cities in the province was accelerating in 2001, Ningling's GDP growth rate dropped to the fifth in the province.

"Hehe, I don't have the right to put pressure on you. If you want to put pressure on yourself, you can only put pressure on yourself. The growth rate of Yongliang in the first few months of this year has been quite amazing, but Huaiqing's fixed asset investment, industrial added value, and GDP growth rate have exceeded Yongliang. The growth rate of Huaiqing and Yongliang has left other cities with a big margin. Although Andu, which ranks third, is not slow, the growth rate is at least six percentage points lower than that of these two cities." Zhuang Quan smiled thoughtfully, "You should think about it yourself."

Zhao Guodong shook his head with a wry smile, "The Ministry of Power, the leaders think like you, then I'm really crying. This indicator cannot be made up by making up, it has to be made up by real investment and output. GDP is really a bastard. I don't know how many brain cells of the first and second leaders of the city and county will be forced to kill. It's because your Organization Department's standards for inspecting cadres are too tilted towards this thing, so it turns out like this."

"Hmph, Guodong, don't complain there! The Organization Department examines cadres without using economic indicators as the main indicators for assessing the ability of cadres. So what do you think is to measure the difference between leadership ability? Four virtues and diligence. To be honest, unless there is a problem, they are generally equal, but what about performance? They can be reflected through performance. The two are the relationship between the two. Then, when we examine cadres, when they are equal, how do we judge which of leading cadres is better or worse in this regard? "

Zhuang Quan also asked with confidence.

Zhao Guodong was speechless for a moment. Before the tone of focusing on economic development as the center, you have to demand that the standards for assessing leading cadres of the organization department change. This is unrealistic, or before the fundamental definition of the viewpoint of economic development has been scientifically interpreted, if you want to reverse this concept, you will easily be regarded as an alien.

"Ministry of Power, it seems we have to take some time to talk about this issue alone."

"Okay, I'll accompany you to the end." Zhuang Quan was very excited. "Everyone said that you went to Beijing and had a lot of knowledge. We also wanted to learn and learn. After you have been busy for this period, let's discuss it carefully. I also thought about whether it is a bit biased to use economic development as the assessment of leading cadres. However, after thinking about it for a long time, I felt that this indicator is also scientific. If you want to change, you have to say the truth."

"Okay, when I've been busy with this matter, I must explore it with you and agree that if I really figure out something new, I will carry out a pilot project in our Ningling." Zhao Guodong laughed.

"No problem. If there is any innovation, I will put you Ningling. Minister Ge and Secretary Yan will talk about it." Zhuang Quan slapped his chest.

Chevrolet passed the ring road of Yongliang City, and National Highway 915 became an arc-shaped garden landscape avenue here.

This is the noise and dust pollution caused by the passing of National Highway 915 through the city, and also to alleviate the traffic pressure in the city. The ring road built by Yongliang City spent a huge amount of money to build is somewhat similar to the plan Zhao Guodong had in Huaiqing, but the scale of Yongliang is slightly smaller, far less than the long-term considerations of Huaiqing.

The changes in Yongliang are still quite obvious. Compared to the dust that happened to Yongliang once in the past two years, it felt like walking through the cement factory area. Although Yongliang's urban environment is still ranked first and second in the province, it has improved a lot.

At least Yongliang strictly restricts trucks from entering the city and compulsory enterprises to meet pollution control standards. Of course, this is also the case in the current economic environment. If the economy really enters a recession, it is not easy for you to let these companies spend a lot of money to improve.

Chevrolet walked around the city and headed straight to Jinliang County, the easternmost end of Yongliang. After a simple lunch in Jinliang, he set out to go straight to Ningling.

During this period, Zhuang Quan also talked to Zhao Guodong about the upcoming Ninth Provincial Party Congress. The Party representative meeting in Ningling City has not been held yet, but the preliminary work is basically ready. After the Andong region investment promotion negotiation meeting is over, we must prepare to convene a city-wide party representative meeting to elect representatives attending the Ninth Provincial Party Congress.

Unexpectedly, such a big mess came out, which made the province fussed. Zhuang Quan also urged Zhao Guodong to implement the matter immediately after taking office, hold a meeting as soon as possible, and select representatives to ensure the smooth convening of the 9th Party Congress of the province.

Of course, Zhao Guodong also knew that this was a major event in the political life of the whole province. It fell into Ningling, which was a major event in the political life of the whole city. In addition to selecting the 54 party representatives in the city, he was also responsible for electing two representatives nominated by the provincial party committee. Zhuang Quan's solemn reminder of himself also showed the seriousness of the matter. Of course, Zhao Guodong did not dare to neglect and slack off.

When Chevrolet slid into the Ningling Municipal Party Committee compound, the deputy secretary of the Ningling Municipal Party Committee and mayor Zhong Yuejun had already led a group of four major teams to wait in the hall.

Zhao Guodong saw Zhong Yuejun standing in the car with straight clothes at the forefront, saying something to Qu Guancai, director of the Municipal People's Congress. On the other hand, Lin Qinghe, chairman of the Municipal CPPCC, and Lu Jianmin, deputy secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, were also discussing something. Other city leaders also stood aside in groups of three or three. It was not until Chevrolet drove into the Municipal Party Committee compound that everyone greeted each other and stood there.

Chevrolet steadily climbed the slope in front of the hall and then stopped at the door. The staff had already pulled the middle door open. Zhuang Quan first got out of the car and shook hands with Zhong Yuejun, Qu Guancai, Lin Qinghe and Lu Jianmin, and then Zhao Guodong came out of the car.

"Mayor Zhong, I don't think I need to introduce it, right?"

"Haha, Minister Zhuang, no need, Secretary Zhao, welcome!" Zhong Yuejun smiled and stretched out his hands. His white short-sleeved shirt was straight, his linen trousers were soaked, and his leather shoes were translucent and spotless.

"Mayor Zhong is so polite. We will be a trench in the future." Zhao Guodong also smiled and held the other party's hands and shook them heavily.

"Director Qu, Chairman Lin, are you two old leaders doing well?" After letting Zhong Yuejun, Zhao Guodong naturally walked into his own route, holding Qu Guancai and Lin Qinghe's hands in order with a smile, and then said a few words to the two.

Qu Guancai and Lin Qinghe are both old leaders when Zhao Guodong was still working in Xijiang. One is the deputy secretary of the prefectural committee before Jiang Yunhua, and the other is the organization minister of the prefectural committee before Mu Gang. Both leaders have a good mentality. After they arrived at the National People's Congress and the CPPCC, they rarely care about the affairs of the municipal party committee and government. Unlike the directors and chairman of the CPPCC in some places, they still want to use their "remaining heat" even when they go to the National People's Congress and CPPCC.

Most of the other leaders are acquaintances of Zhao Guodong. Zhao Guodong was also a little excited when he met Luo Dahai, deputy director of the Municipal People's Congress.

Since leaving Ningling, he has never seen this former old leader again. It turned out that when he was in Xijiang, Zhao Guodong would go to Luo Dahai to sit there from time to time. Luo Dahai was also very leisurely and became obsessed with fishing. When there was no specific matter, he would go fishing. Zhao Guodong made many arrangements for the fish pond library on the Xijiang side.

When Zhao Guodong and Zhong Yuejun accompanied Zhuang Quan into the medium-sized conference room of the Municipal Party Committee, one on the left and one on the right, others also entered one after another. A brief and necessary procedural meeting had to go.

With the courtesy of Zhao Guodong and Zhong Yuejun, Zhuang Quan did not give in much humility. He sat in the middle and announced the document of the provincial party committee on appointing Zhao Guodong as a member, standing member and secretary of the Ningling Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China. At the same time, Zhuang Quan also briefly informed the provincial party committee of the intention and expectations for Zhao Guodong's appointment, and briefly informed Huang Ling about the case.

Zhong Yuejun first expressed his firm support for the decision of the Provincial Party Committee, saying that the Provincial Party Committee appointed Comrade Zhao Guodong as the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee to care and care for Ningling. Comrade Zhao Guodong is young and strong, has rich work experience, outstanding performance and high prestige. Under the leadership of Comrade Zhao Guodong, 5.4 million cadres and masses in Ningling will work together to a new level in all aspects of Ningling.

This familiar procedure made Zhao Guodong seem to be back in a trance when he was appointed as the secretary of the Xijiang District Party Committee more than four years ago, accompanied by Zhang Tianfang. He also faced a group of new colleagues in this way and took up his new position in such an atmosphere. However, this time he took up the position of the municipal party committee secretary, not only facing hundreds of thousands of people in Xijiang, but also facing 5.4 million people in Ningling.
