The secretary-general of the provincial government is an extremely critical position!
Internally, he is responsible for handling the daily affairs of the provincial government, in charge of the general office of the provincial government, and directly serving the provincial governor.
Externally, it can represent the provincial government.
Although he is not at the deputy ministerial level, in the eyes of many department directors and mayors, his importance is no less than that of an ordinary deputy governor.
As an ordinary deputy governor, I would never dare to show off in front of the Secretary-General, because many things in work and life require the Secretary-General to help coordinate.
Besides, the governor’s face is also involved.
Therefore, many people say that the Secretary-General of the Provincial Government is the highest-ranking and most powerful official in the province.
One foot has crossed the threshold of deputy ministerial level.
If nothing happens to the secretary-general of the provincial government, the deputy ministries will inevitably be eliminated, and most of them will be important deputy ministerial positions.
Even if the secretary of the municipal party committee is transferred to the position of secretary-general of the provincial government, it will be considered as further use.
When Li Yanqing took office as governor, the first thing he did was to select the secretary-general.
This position must be someone he trusts.
Not only must one be strong politically, but one must also be strong in ability.
He first thought of Finance Minister Li Dasheng.
Li Dasheng was considered a person promoted by Zhao Wenlong, but he has always maintained a relatively close relationship with him, and he has also been able to build a relationship with the Lin family over the years. There is no doubt that he is one of his own.
Needless to say, there is no need to say much about the level of ability. A person who can succeed as the director of a provincial finance department is definitely not an ordinary person and must meet the standards of a secretary-general.
But Li Yanqing quickly rejected this idea.
Because the Minister of Finance is also extremely important, and it is even more critical for him as the provincial governor at this time.
If he proposed that Li Dasheng be the secretary-general of the provincial government, Fan Jianchuan would definitely take advantage of the situation and arrange for one of his people to be the director of the Department of Finance, which would result in more losses than gains.
But Li Dasheng has always been the director of the Department of Finance. With his work level and relationship with the Ministry of Finance, Fan Jianchuan did not dare to touch him easily.
Therefore, now Li Dasheng still needs to block his position and cannot move him.
Jiang Wei, director of the National Development and Planning Commission?
His ability level is acceptable, but his intimacy with Li Yanqing is a bit lower, which is a bit questionable.
Jiang'an Municipal Party Committee Secretary Yang Wannian?
It's also a choice.
Lao Yang has always been his important supporter, and his son Yang Siyuan is also his capable general.
There is nothing to say politically, we are our own people among our own people.
But in terms of the characteristics of a cadre, Yang Wannian is solid and stable, steady and steady, but not quick-witted. He can be a governor of any party, but when placed in the position of secretary-general, he is not versatile enough and his ability to handle complex affairs is slightly insufficient. This position may not be suitable for him!
I thought about a few more department heads and directors, but I always felt that something was wrong.
So he called Executive Vice Governor Qu Minqing to his office to hear his opinion.
Qu Minqing is a direct descendant of Zhao Wenlong and has always had a good relationship with Li Yanqing.
Now he has been transferred to the position of executive vice governor and has become Li Yanqing's most important deputy.
Li Yanqing naturally wanted to unite him and establish a closer relationship.
In this way, the provincial government will have greater confidence to carry out its work.
Qu Minqing was a little touched. Being able to ask for his opinion on the selection of secretary-general showed Li Yanqing's trust and respect for him.
Of course he has to reciprocate the favor and cannot blindly recommend people.
Qu Minqing thought for a long time and carefully recommended a candidate, Taizhuang City Changjiang Mingyuan!
After hearing this, Li Yanqing's eyes lit up.
Why didn't he think of looking for the mayor just now?
It stands to reason that the mayor's direct promotion to the position of secretary-general of the provincial government would take a long time.
Generally, secretaries of important municipal party committees and top leaders of important departments and offices are transferred to the post of secretary-general.
But the mayor is also the top leader in the government. Although his qualifications are somewhat lacking, he is still reasonable.
If the candidate is suitable, it would be a good choice.
He knew too much about Jiang Mingyuan.
Not long ago, he was promoted from deputy director of the Provincial Development and Planning Commission to mayor of Taizhuang.
He did it all with his own hands.
It stands to reason that Jiang Mingyuan is a talent promoted by Zhao Wenlong.
But he and Zhao Wenlong are not in a dependent relationship. They win Zhao Wenlong's appreciation entirely through their work.
Zhao Wenlong used him purely because he was a pure character, an expert scholar, and had outstanding abilities.
He is neither arrogant nor impatient, modest and low-key.
I heard that I went to Taizhuang and got along very well with Chen Mingxing, the powerful secretary of the municipal party committee. Chen Mingxing reciprocated the favor and praised the new mayor to the provincial party committee many times.
There was quite a bit of sympathy between the two of them.
If Jiang Mingyuan comes to the provincial government to be the secretary-general, he will indeed be a very good candidate.
Of course, Jiang Mingyuan and Li Yanqing had no personal relationship.
But this is not a big problem.
Because Jiang Mingyuan didn't have many personal relationships with other people, his personal personality was very light on factionalism.
Another thing, whether they have personal connections or not is not the absolute criterion for Li Yanqing to select people. People from all over the world are appointed on merit.
As long as you have similar interests, put your work first, and have outstanding abilities, you will be able to build deep relationships at work.
If others don’t talk about it, just talk about Mr. Lin and him, and him and Xiao Liang. Isn’t that the same?
At present, Jiang Mingyuan, a cadre, has no obvious shortcomings. It should be said that he is a suitable candidate.
"Of course, Governor, Comrade Mingyuan is not qualified enough. He has just been promoted to mayor, and in the eyes of many people he has already been promoted. If he is transferred to secretary-general in just a few months, many people may not Convinced."
"I don't think so! Qualifications are a concept fabricated by those cadres who have nothing to do. They want to do nothing and be promoted based on seniority. What a beautiful idea! As long as you have strong abilities and suitable characteristics and positions, you should be bold. Use it! Governor Qu, your suggestion is very good, I will seriously consider it!" Li Yanqing said with a smile.
After Qu Minqing left, Li Yanqing thought for a long time and finally made a decision. He came to Liang Jiangtao and said, "Jiang Tao, please contact Taizhuang Changjiang Mingyuan and ask him to come see me tomorrow morning. You have priority."
Liang Jiangtao hurriedly implemented it.
Just this morning, Governor Yanqing officially moved from the provincial party committee compound to the provincial government compound and became the top leader of this grand office area.
Everything has just been settled.
And he also became the "big steward".
Anyone who wants to see the governor must go through him, and the governor's schedule must be coordinated by him.
When the governor has just arrived, it is customary for all members of the Standing Committee, Vice Governors, Municipal Party Committee Secretaries and Mayors, and Directors of Departments and Bureaus to come and have an audience, report on their work, and express their attitude. The key is to deepen their impressions of each other with the governor.
Of course, start with the higher-level ones first.
Therefore, in the first two days, it is generally defaulted to the provincial leaders to report to the provincial governor.
The princes at the main hall level will be "silent" for two days.
Two days later, the "bombing" mode will be turned on.
At that time, it will also be Liang Jiangtao's busiest time.
The "princes" all want to report to the provincial governor as soon as possible, show their positive attitude, and strive to leave a better impression on the provincial governor.
In this process, it was inevitable to get close to Secretary Liang.
Liang Jiangtao will be sorted according to the importance of the position, the relationship with the provincial governor and various factors. Thinking about it is a headache...
Jiang Mingyuan received the call and quickly said he would arrive on time tomorrow.
He was a little nervous. As soon as the governor took office, he summoned him alone. Why?
I asked Liang Jiangtao if he took the initiative to report late and made the leader unhappy?
After receiving a negative answer, Jiang Mingyuan felt relieved.
Liang Jiangtao said again, "Don't think too much. The deputy governors haven't met yet. The governor summoned you in advance, which is definitely a good thing."
