Chapter 3 Xie Weng, Director of General Office Comprehensive Third Department

7days ago Urban Novels 3
Last night, I visited Han Chuyan, who I had served for five years, and also said goodbye to him.

He is now the Secretary of the Haidong Municipal Party Committee. When Secretary Han Chuyan selected me as secretary, I was just a small employee of the Haidong Municipal Tourism Bureau Office.

The reason why Secretary Han chose me as his secretary was because I read an article published in a magazine about how Haidong City’s tourism development resonates with urban planning.

This article that has condensed my thoughts on the road to civil servants for ten years has been deeply appreciated by Secretary Han, and he chose me as his secretary by chance.

Like me, the person who visits Secretary Han during festivals is Executive Vice Mayor Chen Haisheng.

Chen Haisheng is Secretary Han’s old subordinate and has always been loyal. Secretary Han has always been concerned about the progress of Deputy Mayor Chen Haisheng and has been concerned about Chen Haisheng’s position as executive vice mayor leader at the bureau level.

Of course, Deputy Mayor Chen Haisheng is also very familiar with me. As far as I know, Deputy Mayor Chen Haisheng is not very economically clean behind his back, so Secretary Han has repeatedly knocked on him.

Several times, I could feel that Secretary Han seemed to have the idea of ​​giving up on him.

Secretary Han is 42 years old this year, and it is the time when his career is in full swing. Deputy Mayor Chen Haisheng is three years older than Secretary Chen.

During this Spring Festival, when Vice Mayor Chen Haisheng visited the old leader, he first told the story that it was time for his secretary to be transferred. The difficulties of not having a big pen around him later, and he told the leaders about the lack of talents around him.

In fact, I understand that lack of talent is fake, and it is true that I show loyalty and ask Secretary Han to recommend his own talents.

So, Secretary Han proposed to transfer me to the General Office of the Municipal Government as director of the Third Department of Comprehensive Department, and Chen Haisheng happily agreed.

However, Secretary Han did not mention the candidate for Chen Haisheng's secretary.

Shortly after I went to the Third Department of Comprehensive Affairs, a young man named Sun Xiaokan who had just returned from aid to Tibet was also transferred to the Third Department of Comprehensive Affairs as a researcher.

In this way, the three comprehensive departments I took over include Sun Xiaokan and I, including five people, and three others are deputy director Wang Haihong and two researchers Zhang Zhixin and Xu Xiaobei. However, the interpersonal situation is very complicated. After all, after entering the General Office, we enter the decision-making core of the municipal government. The three comprehensive departments are equivalent to the office of Executive Vice Mayor Chen Haisheng.

Wang Haihong had once imagined becoming a regular person when he was vacant in the position of director, but my arrival broke his fantasy.

In order to appease him, shortly after I took office, I had an opportunity to go abroad for an inspection. Moreover, Deputy Mayor Chen Haisheng personally led the investment promotion team. I gave the opportunity to Deputy Director Wang Haihong. During that time, Wang Haihong saw me handing cigarettes and smiling every day.

But this kind of thing is a double-edged sword. While Wang Haihong's favor for me was rising, it was in return for the jealousy and alienation of the remaining people in the area.

Especially the two researchers Zhang Zhixin and Xu Xiaobei no longer tied with Wang Haihong as closely as before.

At the same time, I also found that on the one hand, Zhang Zhixin found all opportunities to report work and closely moved closer to the former secretary Jia Qinghua, who was promoted to Chen Haisheng as executive vice mayor, and on the other hand, he was resentful of the new Sun Xiaokan.

Later, I found clues in the information room of the General Office, because Sun Xiaokan ran to the information room very frequently during that period. One day, when Sun Xiaokan was not there, I went to the information room specifically and found that the information Sun Xiaokan was looking for was closely centered on the reform of state-owned enterprises, which was obviously writing a paper.

For whom are you writing a paper?

Could it be that this kid is studying for a Ph.D.

It’s impossible. This kid has a master’s degree in science. How did he study economics?

After thinking for a while, I suddenly realized that Chen Haisheng was studying for a graduate student in work, and his major was the national economic management.

The problem is that Deputy Mayor Chen Haisheng’s master’s thesis is not only not asked me to write it, but I also handed it to Sun Xiaokan privately without telling it. It seems that Deputy Mayor Chen Haisheng wants Sun Xiaokan to take over as secretary.

No wonder Zhang Zhixin is resentful of Sun Xiaokan, who is much younger than himself. Becoming Deputy Mayor Chen Haisheng's secretary is Zhang Zhixin's dream. In order to realize this dream, every time he sees Deputy Mayor Chen Haisheng's former secretary Jia Qinghua is like seeing the savior.

This is exactly where Zhang Zhixin, a stupid child, is immature. He forgot the most important point: whether he can become the secretary of Deputy Mayor Chen Haisheng. The former secretary Jia Qinghua has a role, but it is not a decisive role; I also have a role, but it is not a decisive role; even the deputy secretary-general cannot play a decisive role; the only one who plays a decisive role is Chen Haisheng.

Zhang Zhixin, this fool, if you don’t cry about the ancestral grave and crawl, how could you be appreciated by Deputy Mayor Chen Haisheng?

On the contrary, Sun Xiaokan is different. He doesn't do anything at all. He doesn't show off his power and puts all his kung fu into the blade.

I don’t know much about Sun Xiaokan, I only know that he graduated from Peking University and is 28 years old this year. He has a very strong theoretical and literary foundation.

My mother is Xu Huiying, the principal of the city's No. 3 Middle School, and her father is Sun Jinsheng, the vice principal of the city's No. 2 Middle School. Her wife teaches in remote township middle schools.

After graduating from Peking University, Sun Xiaokan originally worked in the Municipal Bureau of Industry and Commerce, but suddenly, as one of the city’s key training targets, he was sent to Tibet for two years and had just returned during this period.

It seems that there is no strong background or relationship.

I have never heard of any relationship between him and Deputy Mayor Chen Haisheng before.

I have never touched what Vice Mayor Chen Haisheng’s true intention is.

But why did Vice Mayor Chen Haisheng hide such an important material from me?

Could it be that Deputy Mayor Chen Haisheng is testing Sun Xiaokan?

If it is a test of Sun Xiaokan, there are roughly three deep meanings: one is to test your understanding, the second is to test your writing level, and the third is to test whether you can keep your secrets.

These three aspects are essential qualities for mayor and secretary.

After observing for a while, I found that I thought that Vice Mayor Chen Haisheng did not hand over many materials to me, but directly handed them to Sun Xiaokan. Although I didn't show any expression on the surface, I felt a little depressed.

The officialdom has always been turbulent, and nothing can happen before the final explanation is revealed.

However, there was no accident in the end. Sun Xiaokan eventually became the mayor's secretary, so Zhang Zhixin became Sun Xiaokan's follower again.

I thought to myself, if Zhang Zhixin wants to have Sun Xiaokan's scheming, he will have to experience it for a few years.

It is said that the eyes of the masses are the brightest, and I have never believed this sentence. I think the brightest one is my own eyes, so I only believe in my own eyes.

However, the eyes of the masses did lit up on Sun Xiaokan. Since he became the mayor's secretary, he has been a matchmaker and a foot wash, which is more than the other mayor's secretary. While enviing Deputy Mayor Chen Haisheng, the other mayors feel that they are blind. Why didn't they choose Sun Xiaokan to be his secretary?

Sun Xiaokan's mayor's secretary seemed to be in water.

I became increasingly unable to understand Sun Xiaokan. This young man revealed a cunning that was extremely inconsistent with this age, and his various performances were even far superior to Zhang Zhixin, who had more qualifications and experience than him. This was very abnormal.

In the officialdom, what you know may not really matter. What matters is what you don’t know, because things you don’t know can determine your career and destiny more than things you know.

My intuition told me that all my analysis of Sun Xiaokan is not the truth, nor is it the real reason why Sun Xiaokan became Chen Haisheng's executive vice mayor secretary. I have always wanted to know which expert is behind this child who is giving guidance.
