From the words of Minister Yanqing, we can further understand the relationship between leaders and secretaries.
It’s never just leaders and subordinates.
Rather, they are like father and brother, living in close symbiosis.
When one is prosperous, both are prosperous; when one is lost, both are harmed.
A secretary may have been with the leader for a long time, like Qin Yi, who followed Zhao Wenlong up and down, moving to several provinces, and stayed with him for more than ten years.
The relationship between them has long gone beyond a work relationship and even feels like a family.
There are countless relationships like this.
Liang Jiangtao thought of later documentaries, Secretary, as a breakthrough in combating corrupt officials.
In fact, the relationship between leaders and secretaries is very close. From the perspective of future generations, there are advantages and disadvantages.
Needless to say, the benefits are that they can closely cooperate with leadership work, realize the leaders’ ideas, and improve leadership and administrative efficiency.
But the disadvantages are also obvious. To put it mildly, this is nepotism.
To put it more seriously, this is to cultivate personal dependence and cultivate party members.
According to anti-corruption documentaries shot publicly in later generations, some leading cadres and secretaries colluded to do many illegal and disciplined things.
In the end, the two men were killed one after another.
A relationship like this is very alienated and deformed.
In fact, this kind of relationship mainly depends on the leader. If the leader is upright, the relationship is good. If the leader is corrupt, then the relationship is distorted.
This close relationship is also a product of the times.
In a period that requires rapid development, efficiency is given priority, and the leader's personal will needs to be implemented quickly. At this time, the secretary is inevitably required to follow the leader closely, and even override other subordinates.
In a period that requires precipitation, reflection, and optimization of the system, such as entering a new era, this phenomenon seems inappropriate.
Therefore, a few years later, the relevant "Regulations" were promulgated to standardize the selection, promotion and scope of responsibilities of secretaries. For example, they could not follow the leader for more than a few years, and promotions must be reported to the superior organizational department for approval, etc., which reasonably regulated this relationship.
The relationship between secretaries and leaders has also become much looser.
Of course, this is something.
"I know there is a big gap between me and Zhang Chu now, but I will definitely study harder to catch up and not delay the minister's work!" Liang Jiangtao added, appearing very sincere.
"Xiao Liang, it is necessary to study hard, but I want to remind you not to belittle yourself, let alone imitate Xiao Zhang in everything. What I want is a living secretary, not a follow-up waiter. Xiao Zhang has Xiao Zhang Zhang's advantages, you also have yours, they are all raw jade, but they have different characteristics. Do you know the law of status?" Li Yanqing said.
Liang Jiangtao was stunned and said, "Please give me instructions."
"Some people are standing at the foot of the mountain, while others are standing on the top of the mountain. Although their positions are different, in the eyes of the two people, the other person is the same size. The world is so big, you must have advantages that others do not have. Please experience it carefully." Li Yanqing said.
Liang Jiangtao was completely stunned. He carefully understood the philosophy contained in this sentence and understood it together with the minister's conversation just now. He felt enlightened and his eyes burst out with a strange light!
He instantly understood his direction!
What the minister wants is not a programmed robot, but an assistant who can really help him!
The reason for using him as secretary is the result of a combination of his character, quality, ability, vision and thinking.
There are so many people in the Organization Department, and Minister Yanqing does not lack a liaison person to upload and issue orders, let alone a waiter who can come when he is called. What he has to do is his right and left hand that he cannot do without!
"You go to Yuanfeng first and let him take you with you for a few days to hand over the work. If you don't understand anything, feel free to ask him." After Li Yanqing finished speaking, he put on his flower glasses and continued to review the documents.
Liang Jiangtao exited the room knowingly.
"Brother Zhang, I'm here to learn from you." Liang Jiangtao said with a smile.
"Haha, you will be a trainee for the next few days and see what I do, but you must be fully mentally prepared. The tasks and information I will hand over to you are very large. Remember them as much as you can. If you don't understand anything in the future, feel free to ask. Secretarial work is like this, there is a process of adaptation, I was very busy when I first came here, it only takes a month to get used to it." Zhang Yuanfeng said.
"Okay, brother!" Liang Jiangtao was like an obedient primary school student.
"Every morning at 7:00, I go with the driver to pick up the minister at the Provincial Leaders' Family Home. After work, I make a cup of black tea for the leader. Remember, it must be black tea. The leader's spleen and stomach are slightly weak and cannot drink green tea. He is usually fine. , the key is that when you go out for a meeting, you must communicate with the meeting party and check. Also, it is best to put some black tea in your bag to be prepared."
"Tea, leaders usually have one cup in the morning and one cup in the afternoon. They don't need it in the evening."
"After making tea, bring over the day's newspapers. This is an important channel for leaders to obtain information. There are party newspapers, Handong Daily and Jiangzhou Evening News, as well as party magazines, one issue per month, and bring them over to leaders."
"Um!"
Liang Jiangtao nodded heavily. These are important details. It is the secretary's bounden duty to ensure the leader's life.
On the contrary, it is more important than some procedural work.
"Every Monday when you go to work, the office manager will give you a copy of the minister's schedule for the week. Try to remember it and be aware of it. Report to the minister every day when you go to work. Sometimes he will ask you, so you have to answer it immediately."
"Some special itineraries must be paid special attention to, such as accompanying the leaders of the Central Government and ministries and commissions for research, going to Beijing to participate in important activities and meetings, important meetings of the provincial party committee, including the secretary's office meeting and the standing committee, and sometimes the committee will have temporary arrangements For activities and meetings, comrades from the secretariat will communicate with you. You can take notes and ask the leader for instructions."
"The rest of the time is under your flexible control and camera arrangement. Anyone who wants to see the minister needs to go through you. Minister Wanjun, Minister Yan'an, and Minister Lingjun, if the three of them want to see the leader, in principle, they must go through it as soon as possible Report to the leader. If other ministry leaders, including members of ministries and commissions, as well as standing committee ministers of various cities, want to meet with the leader, you can set a time and then ask the leader for instructions."
"clear!"
Liang Jiangtao further felt why secretaries are so important, because they control the leader's schedule and time, and also control others' power to see the leader to a certain extent.
It is a barrier between leaders and subordinates.
To use an inappropriate metaphor, it is like the eunuchs in ancient times. Under certain conditions, they can isolate the communication between the emperor and his ministers. Ultimately, they have unlimited power and can cause chaos.
Just like Zhao Gao and Qin II.
Of course, this is random association.
