"Grandpa Lin, I listen to you."
"The western region also has the same problem. The industrial foundation is too poor and there are no basic conditions for you to play. Overall, I recommend choosing the central region." Lin Laodao.
"Yu Province, Jin Province?"
Liang Jiangtao’s first reaction was these two provinces.
Not close to the sea, but each has its own advantages.
Yu Province is a large province in the Central Plains with a relatively central geographical location and dense population. It is a major labor export province and has a lot of room for the future.
Jin Province is a resource-rich province with rich coal resources and is very rich. However, the problems are obvious. One is environmental pollution and ecological damage, and the other is the adjustment of future resource structure and the transformation after resource depletion.
"Yes. Taken together, these two provinces each have their own advantages and are both better choices. What do you think, Brother Liang?"
"Well, I think it works. Brother, you are an expert in this area. It's all up to you." Mr. Liang said with a smile.
He trusts Mr. Lin 100% and is absolutely devoted to the good of his grandson.
"Jiang Tao, look at which one you want to choose?" Mr. Lin asked.
"I want to choose Shanxi Province. Because Shanxi Province is a resource-based province and currently has relatively good financial resources, I have more room to move." Liang Jiangtao thought for a while and then made his choice. It was relatively clear.
Henan Province's labor force advantage is a long-term advantage. In the short term, it is more about the export of labor services, which is beneficial to the southeastern coast.
If you want to take advantage of this, you may have to wait at least ten years.
This is not the case in Shanxi Province. Now is a prosperous time.
In a few years, coal will usher in a super bull market, and at that time, Jin Province will be at its peak.
Liang Jiangtao seized this opportunity and had a lot of room to move around. It was definitely a big stage.
Coal mine management, ecological and environmental protection, crackdown on gangs and evil, and anti-corruption can all be put on the agenda.
"I will fully support you here. However, there are many problems in coal mine production now, so you must pay attention." Lin Xingjian reminded.
"I understand, thank you, uncle. I will focus on rectifying it as soon as I go to make sure there are no problems!" Liang Jiangtao nodded.
Regarding coal mine accidents, Jin Province has been continuously involved. Even the first provincial governor was involved in the incident. He did not dare to take it lightly.
Of course, there is no need to panic excessively, but to give full play to subjective initiative and turn crises into opportunities.
"Jiang Tao, with your current level and achievements, if you work harder, you can become the county party secretary in one step." Lin Xingjian said.
Liang Jiangtao is now the deputy director of the Office of the Director of the General Office of the National Development and Reform Commission. According to convention, the directors of the office of the director are at the deputy department level, and the deputy directors are at the director level. However, due to his limited personal qualifications, Liang Jiangtao is only at the deputy director level.
But everyone from top to bottom regards him as the director, even higher than the director. Is he the "number two chief"?
When it comes to work and work performance, it goes without saying.
He undertook important tasks in the committee and even the country, took overall responsibility, commanded a group of young cadres, experts and scholars, and competed with bureau-level cadres on the same stage. He did not fall behind in the slightest and was recognized by the central leadership.
It would make sense no matter what, to directly become the county party secretary.
"I think it's better to start from the county magistrate's post. If a tree is more beautiful than a tree, the wind will destroy it. It's better to restrain your sharpness appropriately." Mr. Liang frowned.
The first-in-command and the second-in-command are actually very different, and their sensory impact is also different.
If Liang Jiangtao directly becomes the county party secretary in one step, he may attract excessive attention and eyebrows.
"Well, I agree with Brother Liang's point of view. Jiang Tao went down, firstly to solve the problem of rank, and also to improve his abilities. The county magistrate is undoubtedly a better position. You will understand when you become the county magistrate. Some people say that this is China It is the most difficult official position in politics. There is a secretary at the top, and all kinds of conflicts in the county below. You do the work, you scold you, and the key is that you don’t have the final say! If you can work hard in this position for a while, you will definitely gain something. It’s huge.” Old Lin said.
Liang Jiangtao almost didn't hesitate and said loudly: "Grandpas and uncles, I am willing to start as county magistrate!"
There is a saying at the grassroots level that the county party committee secretary cannot sleep if he wants to, and the county chief cannot sleep if he wants to.
This shows the busyness and hard work of the county magistrate.
To put it bluntly, it’s work.
All major and minor matters of the county committee are basically implemented by the county government, which shows the pressure on the county magistrate.
"Jiang Tao, it's not that easy to be the county magistrate. After all, you are not the top leader. There is a secretary above you, and it may be an old secretary who is more than twenty years older than you. He has been entrenched in the local area for decades and has long been weaved. There is a criss-crossing network of relationships, and you can't easily break it with the halo of a county magistrate, so you have to be mentally prepared." said Mr. Lin.
Liang Jiangtao was silent and nodded.
Of course he knew this in his heart. It was not like he had never done it in the county.
There are many people who know that the county magistrate will not be able to continue his job.
Before his rebirth, there was a county magistrate in Ningshui, but he was deprived of any power by the secretary. Everyone from top to bottom regarded him as a ghost in the temple. "Although he was respected by others, his hatred was ineffective."
Although the county magistrate is the head of a county and is in charge of the economy and has financial power, he does not have personnel power.
And personnel power is the number one power!
In this way, whether the work can be carried out smoothly depends on the relationship with the secretary, courage, and the depth of local connections.
If you encounter a strong secretary, it will be uncomfortable.
It’s not just a matter of not being able to carry out work smoothly, but also being pulled out to take the blame when something goes wrong.
This is also the reason why many young ministerial and provincial leading cadres are not so willing to serve in county-level leadership positions at the current time.
But Liang Jiangtao is obviously not afraid of this. He just thinks about being young and settling down as the county magistrate.
How to get along with superiors of the same level in a team is a big article.
It's like dancing with handcuffs and shackles, a test of wisdom and city government.
Many leading cadres have never learned this throughout their lives, which has become a major obstacle to progress.
It meant a lot to him to take the lead in catching up on this lesson when he was young.
Liang Jiangtao can feel the good intentions of the two grandfathers.
"Jiang Tao, as an airborne county magistrate and a young county magistrate, I'm afraid you will have to go through a long period of adjustment. The secretary will be wary of you or even suppress you, the team members will look down on you, and even the subordinates will treat you with indifference. Many grassroots cadres will follow the wind and decide what to do, so you have to think about it in advance, otherwise you will be blinded when the time comes!" Mr. Lin continued to warn.
Although he had been in the capital for many years, he had been engaged in economic work before retiring. He often understood the situation at the grassroots level in various ways, so his senses were very thorough.
"Two grandpas and uncles, no matter how you pass this test, if you pass it, it will be a good stepping stone for me on the road to the grassroots level! I will not avoid conflicts, nor will I intensify them. This is a test for me. I will Find the best balance in my own way and deliver a satisfactory answer!" Liang Jiangtao's face was full of confidence.
"By the way, I have another idea. When I get there, I won't reveal my identity and background. When the time comes, I'll ask my uncle to tell the organization department and help me out." Liang Jiangtao said.
"Okay, this is a small matter, leave it to me." Lin Xingjian said.
"Okay, young people, if you dare to think, dare to do, and dare to be the first, you will definitely have a promising future!" Elder Lin and others laughed.
The study room is filled with happy air.
