Rebirth of Minister Qi

Chapter 929 Give full play to your strengths

Qi Tongwei put the paper in his hand back and took out another one.

"Brother, you need to ask me for a solution.

There is a very important point that we talked about before you took office.

This is the table.”

Qi Tongwei slapped the form on the table and pointed at the data on it.

"These dozen or so prefecture-level cities with uneven development have more and more people supported by the government, and the amount of fixed investment reported is also higher.

The fixed investment amount is so high, but it has not changed the overall situation, which means that the money was wasted.

Look at this city, this so-called resort has invested billions, but I have already seen the candid photos taken by netizens on the Internet.”

Qi Tongwei took his phone back from the desk, searched it quickly, and found the webpage he wanted.

"Mr. Governor, look at this resort that claimed to have invested billions of dollars, but now it is all ruins, and it has only been a few years.

Netizens said that this resort was actually only partially open for one year, and the doors were closed the following year.

What kind of investment is this? Isn't this just throwing money down the drain?

There is also this city, which was also posted by netizens online.

This white house-style government building cost so much, probably more than 5 billion yuan. It’s so beautiful.

It is much more beautiful than your provincial government building. Their annual fiscal revenue is only over 10 billion.

With these spendthrifts squandering money like crazy behind you, you won't be able to save any money even if you embroider the entire city of Jinchuan with flowers.

These idiots must be ruthlessly placed under double supervision and replaced with people who care about the people instead of these corrupt officials who only know how to waste money on big projects and take on large-scale debts without paying attention to the realities of people's livelihood.

These people have little ability, but they are more daring than each other. In order to make the data look good, the people of the city have to bear so much debt that they cannot pay it off even if they work for a lifetime.

Not to mention that there are so many people who are living off the fat of the land in the city. The amount of financial support for this city even exceeds that of most cities in Jiangdong Province, and there are so many more officials at the department and division level.

Can the little tax money paid by the common people be enough to support these people?

I would even venture to conclude that at least one in ten of these people do not come to work and are simply collecting salaries without working.”

Jin Xinkai was very familiar with these data. After hearing Qi Tongwei's words, he covered his head and felt his head was as big as a bucket.

Before coming here, I thought that Han River Province might have many problems, such as uneven development, unclear development direction, etc. However, after taking office, I found that the reality is ten times more cruel and severe than I had imagined.

After more than 20 years of experience, Jin Xinkai is now much more mature than when he was the county magistrate, but he is still worried about the current situation in Hanjiang Province. What on earth were the cadres of previous generations doing? There was no planning at all, and other cities were allowed to be siphoned off by Jinchuan City. The original large and small industries in various cities were defeated step by step in the market competition.

Those that have developed well have either moved to Jinchuan City or to other provinces. Now these cities and prefectures have hollowed out industries and are experiencing serious population loss, but there are too many people who rely on the government for food. This has led to the rigidification of the entire society, and educated and capable young people are more determined to move to big cities.

All this formed a vicious cycle, and the overall class structure in backward cities and counties began to become seriously solidified. Qi Tongwei blew out a smoke ring and gave a definition of these people.

“These freeloaders occupy the top of the county economy, resist development, and continue to suck blood.

The name they are called online is quite correct, the county town Brahmins. ”

Jin Xinkai did not continue on this topic. He said that one must eat one bite at a time and do one thing at a time. The reason for this situation was that in the 1990s and 2000s, the helmsman of Hanjiang Province did not follow the correct industrial planning to allow the industries in each city and prefecture to enhance their competitiveness.

They just keep piling up the GDP of Jinchuan, a sub-provincial city, provincial capital, and regional center city, so that the data will be better every year and they can also rise quickly.

This is one of the drawbacks of the system of itinerant officials. Most officials do not have long-term plans because their terms of office are very short. They always feel that this is a race and they must be promoted quickly. Many people invariably choose a simpler and more effective way.

Especially under the organizational principle of GDP only, their eyes are more fixed on economic data, and they are frantically carrying out large projects and infrastructure. As for the future of the industry, sorry, they will be transferred after two years, and that will be the next term's business.

Last year, Qi Tongwei promptly stopped the promotion and appointment of two cadres because he knew that his superiors were dissatisfied with Hanjiang Province's short-sighted behavior of pursuing large projects and hoped to curb it.

“Han River Province needs to make long-term plans, but all the cadres below are used to short-term behavior.

To change this mindset, simply changing a few provincial party committee leaders would only be a temporary solution, not a fundamental one. "

Qi Tongwei understood the meaning of Jin Xinkai's words.

"But you are only the governor now, not the top leader. What you said requires the formulation of new assessment and promotion standards, the reorganization of the Organization Department, and the control of the provincial government and the Commission for Discipline Inspection.

Only by letting the retired Pei Yihong come back can we have this power and prestige.

how?

How much of a hindrance does this female leader impose on your work?

That shouldn't be the case. The superior has already talked to her face to face, saying both nice and unpleasant things. Even if she is stubborn, she won't dare to cause trouble."

Jin Xinkai smiled.

“It’s not so easy for people to change.

If any leader warned you, Qi Tongwei, not to cause trouble, would you listen?

You must be listening on the surface, but doing your own thing behind the scenes."

Then Jin Xinkai looked at Qi Tongwei with a smile and said no more. Everything was self-explanatory. With his status, he could no longer directly say what his colleagues did.

There must be an art to speaking. How you understand it is your business. He did not say anything about his colleagues behind their backs.

But the meaning has been expressed very clearly. The female leader was cooperative on the surface, but the differences between the two sides were objective and could not be eliminated by just a few words from the leader.

Qi Tongwei put himself in the other person's shoes and thought about what choice he would make if he were faced with this situation.

After a moment, Qi Tongwei's eyes became firm.

"If I were in this position, I would use my strengths."

Jin Xinkai didn't quite understand.

"What's your specialty? Economics?"

Qi Tongwei waved his hand.

“In the past, I focused on economics because I had people at the top who firmly supported me, just like when you were the district party secretary more than 20 years ago.

During my time in Jiangzhou, Boss Zhao also gave me strong support.

But now if the top leader and I have different ideas, I have no intention of focusing on the economy.

The specialty I'm talking about is."
