On the third day after Liang Jian left Jingzhou, Zhu Huaiyu convened a meeting of the members of the leadership team.

Lishan Resort is a new area, and many organizational relationships and institutional settings have not been completely straightened out. For example, if you look at it from the local level, then the party secretary is obviously the number one leader, leading the government; However, if we look at it from the perspective of a government department, then it is the chief executive responsibility system, the director (director) is the number one, and the party secretary is only responsible for the party building work, and does not completely lead the administrative work.

There is an ambiguity in the positioning of Lishan Resort in this regard. Although, when announcing the leadership team of Lishan Resort, the city said that it was referring to the model of the county district, but there was no document to make it clear that Zhu Huaiyu was the number one. In this way, there will be problems in the work.

The director of Lishan Resort is named Yao Jie, he is a demobilized cadre, served as deputy township head, township head, secretary, and has a good relationship with a leader in the city. Yao Jie is very military in drinking, a pound of liquor is in his stomach, his face does not change color and his heart does not beat. But in doing practical things, he likes to take the road of ingeniousness, what the leader pays attention to, what the leader doesn't care about, he basically won't touch it, even if the long-term development benefits of this place are obvious, he doesn't care too much.

Therefore, when Zhu Huaiyu proposed to build an underground pipe network system in accordance with national standards at the team meeting, Director Yao Jie was the first to jump out and object: "This matter is thankless, the investment is large, and the effect is slow, so it is completely unnecessary." As far as I know, many other resorts, in terms of underground pipe network construction, they can save and get by. ”

One of the deputy directors of the team is quite responsible, he said: "The construction of the underground pipe network, although it is an underground matter, is not as effective as high-rise buildings. However, it is a long-term thing, and everyone will gradually feel that we have done a good job in the future. Moreover, there is a lot of urban waterlogging every year, and if we have just built Lishan Resort, there will be urban waterlogging, then there is no way to explain to the organization and the people! ”

Several other committee members and deputy directors who will not be promoted or transferred in the near future are also in favor of building an underground pipe network. However, a few young leading cadres who feel that they are very likely to take up important posts in counties, districts, and departments obviously do not support spending a lot of money on the construction of underground pipe networks.

In this way, the ratio of supporters and opponents is about half. Yao Jie said: "Our Lishan Resort, the key at present is to see the image, so that the leaders can find it at a glance, yo, the construction speed of the resort is very fast!" Otherwise, our work will be in vain. Do you want the leaders to drill into the ground to see the pipe network? ”

Zhu Huaiyu said: "We have to build the image on the ground, and we also have to build the underground pipe network. If the underground is not planned and built well, it will be too late to remedy it in the future, and you haven't seen the old city flooded two days ago? In the old city, everyone will be tolerant, saying that this is a problem left over from the past, and no one will be held accountable anyway. However, if our Lishan Resort is newly built, if it is flooded next year, the people will accuse us of scolding. ”

When some team members heard Zhu Huaiyu say this, they nodded slightly and whispered to each other.

Director Yao Jie saw that some team members seemed to be moved by Zhu Huaiyu's words, so he said: "We have different opinions on this matter, so let's use the method of democratic centralism, and everyone votes." Whichever side has more people, it will be done according to whichever side. ”

Democratic centralism? Vote?

Zhu Huaiyu faintly felt that something was wrong. Zhu Huaiyu felt the problem, but he couldn't say what was wrong? Looking at the time, the meeting had already been going on for an hour and a half, and there was still an hour before lunch. Zhu Huaiyu announced the adjournment of the meeting, everyone went to the toilet, and it will be opened later.

After the meeting was adjourned, Zhu Huaiyu immediately returned to his office, picked up the phone, and came to Liang Jian for help: "Governor Liang, you must give me a clear way." ”

Liang Jian happened to be free in the office. After listening to Zhu Huaiyu's report, he paused for a moment and said, "Old Zhu, in this matter, you must not use voting to solve it. ”

Zhu Huaiyu still didn't understand: "Why can't you vote?" ”

Liang Jian thought about how to explain to Zhu Huaiyu, and then said: "It is undeniable that democratic centralism is a good thing. However, in our specific work, democracy is for the sake of centralization, and only by centralization can better democracy be achieved. Voting alone will not solve the problem at its root. For example, in the matter of the construction of this underground pipe network, if it is only solved by voting. There are two possible undesirable consequences. ”

"Governor Liang, what are the two bad consequences?"

Liang Jian continued: "The first bad consequence is that if your side loses the vote, then you will completely lose the initiative, and the matter of building an underground pipe network will never be mentioned in the future." The second undesirable consequence is that even if you win the vote and start building the underground pipe network, the director Yao Jie and others, if this is the result of the vote, we don't agree with it. In the future work, if you don't cooperate and don't make any efforts, maybe you will be held back, what can you do? ”

When Zhu Huaiyu heard this, a cold sweat broke out on his forehead. It turns out that no matter how serious the problem is, it turns out that democratic centralism is also a double-edged sword, and it cannot be used casually. Why didn't you think of it? Why can Liang Jian think so far!

Zhu Huaiyu admired Liang Jian even more, no wonder Liang Jian had become a vice governor, and he was still a department-level cadre. Zhu Huaiyu asked again: "Then what should I do?" ”

Liang Jian smiled lightly and said, "Actually, the last time I came to Jingzhou, I already told you. Now that you are the number one, don't forget that you are the number one. The rest, you'll have to deal with it yourself. ”

Liang Jian could have directly told Zhu Huaiyu what to do, and his method would definitely work. However, he, Liang Jian, is not Zhu Huaiyu's staff officer. But on the contrary, Zhu Huaiyu may become his staff officer in the future. Therefore, the person who uses his brain should first be Zhu Huaiyu.

If Zhu Huaiyu can't solve such a problem, he will not be worthy of him Liang Jian to promote him, nor will he be worthy of becoming his Liang Jian's deputy secretary general. Zhu Huaiyu must pass his own hurdles, fill his own pits, and realize the truth of politics in them. It's something that no one can help him do.

Zhu Huaiyu hung up his phone when he heard that Liang Jian didn't say goodbye, he had already fully felt that the next meeting was a test for himself. He had to pass this test.

Ten minutes later, Zhu Huaiyu returned to the conference room. Before entering the conference room, he kept recalling Liang Jian's words, "You are now the number one, don't forget that you are the number one." ”

As soon as he sat down, Director Yao Jie said, "Secretary Zhu, why don't we vote now!" ”

Zhu Huaiyu put his hands on the conference table, making a small but obvious sound.

Zhu Huaiyu is slightly fat, and when he shows his appearance, he still has a leadership style. He looked at Yao Jie and said, "No." Director Yao. This matter cannot be resolved by voting. ”

Yao Jie noticed some obvious changes in the aura on Zhu Huaiyu's body. However, when he heard that Zhu Huaiyu denied his opinion, he was very unhappy, he glared at Zhu Huaiyu and said, "Secretary Zhu, what do you say?" If we don't agree, we can only vote! ”

Zhu Huaiyu said without concessions: "There is no unity, so we must unify our opinions." Is the opinion of which team inherently unified? Which team agrees naturally? Many major events in our country are a process of moving from non-reunification to reunification. If everything is solved by voting, why do we want to do it, it is better to give each of the people a voting machine, and everyone can vote. ”

Zhu Huaiyu gradually felt that he had entered a state, he raised one hand from the table, then waved it in the air, and continued: "I will ask you two questions now: the first question, should we do things that will benefit us in the long run, or only do things that can be seen in the near future? The second question is whether we should avoid the things that have been learned from the past in the near future, or whether we should repeat the mistakes of others. If everyone says that we don't do things that benefit the long-term, and we have to repeat the lessons of others, then I'm afraid that our gang of people are not qualified to sit here. So, please think clearly. ”

Zhu Huaiyu's gaze looked at the team members one by one, and even he himself was surprised, his gaze had never been so sharp.

Director Yao Jie was still unconvinced when he saw Zhu Huaiyu's gaze, but he didn't dare to refute it directly. Because once he refutes, it is tantamount to refuting the righteousness. Zhu Huaiyu is now on the side of righteousness, on the side of long-term, and on the side of selflessness.

Zhu Huaiyu saw that the atmosphere was very favorable to him, so he seized the opportunity and asked from the team members at the bottom of the ranking: "Director Juntao, can you make a statement!" ”

Deputy Director Liu Juntao said: "I agree to build a national pipeline network according to national standards. ”

Zhu Huaiyu nodded quietly: "Very good." Then Director Lin, you make a statement. ”

Deputy Director Lin: "I also agree. ”

"I agree."

"I agree."

The team members were broken one by one, and in the end, only Director Yao Jie remained.

Yao Jie was silent for a long time before he said, "Since everyone agrees, then I have no opinion." But the key is money, the money that the city can give is very limited, and the investment in the construction of the underground pipe network requires so much money, I have no choice. ”

Zhu Huaiyu thought that Liang Jian had told him that Liang Jian could be found for money. He wanted to say, I'll figure out how to solve the problem of money. But seeing that there was a cunning in Yao Jie's eyes, he immediately quit.

He looked at Yao Jie and said, "Director Yao, you are in charge of the money." If you can't help the money problem, then none of us here should have a solution. But if you really can't do it, you can also bring it up to the organization, and don't care about the money in the future. ”

Yao Jie had a pain in his heart muscle, he never thought that the obstacles he wanted to set up for Zhu Huaiyu today did not work in the end. It's like punching out one by one, and finally fighting back at yourself.

In his impression, Zhu Huaiyu is a little loyal, and his wrists are not very smart, but today he is a little abnormal! Could it be that there are high-level leaders behind Zhu Huaiyu who are instructing? Thinking of this, he didn't dare to go against Zhu Huaiyu.
