After breakfast, when Chu Tianshu led a group of people from the county committee and county government into the county government auditorium, the venue was already full of people. After Zhou Yuning introduced the specific requirements for democratically recommending the party committee secretary, mayor and deputy mayor of Fuyun Town, six A staff member began distributing recommendation ballots. According to the original design, this round only eliminated the last three people from the candidates recommended by the masses, and promoted five and nineteen people from the eight and 22 people respectively. However, the recommendations in the second round were ranked in the third place. The mid-round plays a 60% weighting proportion. Zhou Yuning said to Chu Tianshu: "The lists recommended in this round are immediately returned to the grassroots party committees. In addition to the twenty township party committees, all units with party committees in the county system also participate in the recommendation. Party committee members are required to review the submitted lists." The secret ballot method is used to calculate the number of votes, and then the rankings are based on the weighted scores of 40% of the grassroots party committees and 60% of the cadres at the township level and above, and then provided to the four teams in the county for recommendations. " Chu Tianshu said: "We should say this. Basically, it embodies openness, fairness and impartiality. "Zhou Yuning said: "In fact, at this stage of the public recommendation and public election, I think it is no longer important who is the winner. What is important is that the work ahead of us is too difficult, and many people simply cannot do it. I don¡¯t believe that today¡¯s county committee and county government will really let everyone recommend it. I always think that it is just a show and a show. Now that everyone has gone through such strict procedures one after another, we believe that this time is real democracy. ¡± At seven o'clock, almost every household in Nanling County from the county seat to the countryside turns on the TV before seven o'clock. After a burst of relaxed and happy music on the TV, the male and female hosts began to report the announcement of the county public election office. After recommendations from cadres at or above the township level and grassroots unit party committees in the county, five candidates for town party committee secretaries and 19 candidates for town mayors were recommended. As soon as the announcement was announced, Nanling County, which was originally not peaceful, suddenly felt like a pot was boiling. The majority of cadres and the masses highly praised the democracy reflected in the public recommendation and public election. Not only that, those who were recommended had an indifferent attitude at first, but today, they are a little at a loss. The competition is not over yet, more intense and cruel scenes are still waiting for them. The fourth round of recommendation work is carried out by the enlarged meeting of the County Party Committee Standing Committee through differential voting to select two official candidates for the town party committee secretaries and seven mayors and deputy mayors from five and 19 people. The expanded meeting of the County Party Committee Standing Committee was held as scheduled. The seven Standing Committee members and several expanded county-level leaders were sitting in the small conference room of the County Party Committee. Zhou Yuning briefly introduced the relevant situation of the public recommendation and public election of Fuyun Town Party Committee Secretary and Town Mayor, as well as the anonymous Specific procedures for voting to select official candidates for two party committee secretaries, two town mayors, and five deputy town mayors. ?Subsequently, the staff of the Public Recommendation and Public Election Office distributed the recommendation list. In addition to the basic information of the candidates, the list also included the results of each round of recommendation. The mood of the county leaders at this moment is complicated. In the past, most of the cadres studied by the Standing Committee were inspected and prepared by the Organization Department of the County Party Committee, and the secretaries met for communication and negotiation. By the time they reached the Standing Committee, they were already mature candidates. Unless there were special circumstances, the Standing Committee members could not do anything about the list even if they had opinions. , can only be passed unanimously. In theory, it is a study of cadres, but in essence it is a solicitation of opinions. Often there is not even a show of hands to vote, let alone a secret vote. Today, everything has changed. Leaders were given a recommendation form and could freely exercise their right to recommend. Chu Tianshu is relieved that after a difficult and tortuous process, Nanling County¡¯s attempt to reform the cadre and personnel system has finally come to this day. The results are satisfactory and will definitely succeed. It was painful for Fu Damu. In the past many years, he had been accustomed to one person having the final say in the appointment of county cadres. Suddenly, the power in his hand was replaced by a thin recommendation form, and no one came to run for office or give money. No one came to seek refuge, and the huge gap was like a knife cutting his heart. Tao Yuming was at a loss. In the past, when discussing cadres in meetings, all he had to do was listen to Fu Damu's words and look at his face. Today, he had to check a lot of names. He couldn't help but feel uncomfortable and gestured with the recommendation form. It's hard to draw, and it's hard to write for a while. Yang Fugui, Geng Zhongtian and Mao Xingdong are happy. They have been suppressed by Fu Damu for a long time. They dare not speak out when they are angry, and they cannot express their opinions. Today they can finally recommend candidates they are satisfied with according to their own wishes. This kind of fun It feels like never before. Zhou Yuning is relaxed. For him, today he has never felt more relaxed. In the past, his biggest headache was the cadre problem. The more power was over-concentrated, the more pressure he felt. When promoting a cadre or adjusting a cadre, one must not only consider work needs, but also take care of all aspects of relationships.When it comes to the Standing Committee meeting, the Standing Committee members sometimes have different opinions, but the established plan cannot be overturned. However, the Standing Committee members still have opinions, often because the research cadres make the Standing Committee meeting awkward, embarrassing and unhappy. As the organizational director of the county party committee, he must not only consider and take care of the relationship with the main leaders, but also mobilize the enthusiasm of the cadres. Those who are promoted will be in a happy mood, and those who cannot be promoted will either scold or complain. But now, he does not need to take into account any relationships, no need It depends on anyone¡¯s face, just provide a list of recommendations and let the Standing Committee members make their own choices. If Zhou Yuning is the one who has the deepest experience of this reform, then Fu Damu is the one who suffers the most. The results of the secret vote of the County Party Committee Standing Committee to select two Fuyun Town Party Committee secretaries, two town mayors, and five deputy town mayors came out soon. The candidates for town party committee secretary are Huang Fulin and Shi Zhiqiang, the candidates for mayor are Zheng Zhiguohe, and the candidates for deputy mayor are Luo Yubin, Wang Yongchao and others. This morning, in the conference room of the County Party Committee Organization Department, nine candidates gathered together. They were enthusiastic and excited, holding the hands of their comrades who had come along the way. They are all their fierce competitors in the future. The staff elaborated on the specific content and precautions of the next stage of work to the nine comrades. Chu Tianshu came to the conference room to visit and congratulate the nine candidates. He stepped forward and shook hands with the nine candidates one by one, encouraging them to face it positively, correct their mentality, one red heart, two preparations, even this time If you are not elected in Fuyun Town, you can also accumulate experience for the next public election in other towns and create greater success. According to the procedures, the nine people will conduct in-depth research in Fuyun Town and take the stage a week later to give a speech on their policy plan and defense. In addition to being evaluated by an expert jury on site, they will also be observed by rural cadres, party member representatives and people's congress representatives throughout the process. , conduct public opinion polls, and finally the top two with comprehensive scores will be submitted to the Party Congress and the People's Congress for secret ballot elections. On this day, the autumn air is crisp and the sun is shining brightly. The street in front of the county party committee compound was very lively. Villagers from four villages and eight townships came one after another. A temporary podium was set up at the intersection of Fuqian Street and speakers were set up on the surrounding trees. As soon as the loudspeaker sounded, the people going to the market rushed over one after another. Group after group, row after row, there was a sea of ??people. It was so lively that the temporary venue was packed to the brim. The two hosts walked onto the podium, and then nine expert defense judges took their seats in the front row. Actually, this is not a formal defense, just a rehearsal. The two candidates for deputy mayor, Wang Yongchao and Luo Yubin, participated in the rehearsal. Chu Tianshu proposed to place this preview in the most prosperous and lively place in the county in order to create public opinion among the cadres and the masses and publicize the importance of public recommendation and public election. The first person to appear was Wang Yongchao, the deputy section chief from the county party committee office. He graduated from the Chinese Department of the university and was 29 years old. Not only did he have literary expertise, but he also had several years of training in the government office and the county party committee office. He had performed well in the previous rounds. It is very outstanding, especially now that he is Chu Tianshu's secretary, most people think that he has a chance to win. Wang Yongchao walked up to the rostrum magnanimously, bowed deeply to the audience, and started with a poetic statement: "Fuyun Town, a newly established town in Nanling County, was once a poor and backward village. Today, we are bathed in the spring breeze of reform. Under the leadership of Chu Tianshu, the leader of the reform and our county party secretary, earth-shaking changes have taken place" Wang Yongchao's mellow and emotional opening speech received warm applause. The speech is over and the questions have begun. "Comrade Wang." A representative of the township masses held a microphone and asked loudly: "Now that the county is developing the economy, we are calling on the farmer brothers working outside to go home and start their own businesses. They have come back one after another and come to you, the mayor. What are you going to do?" Arrange them. " Wang Yongchao was completely unprepared. He majored in Chinese in college and was well-qualified to be admitted to Nanling County. He was recommended as a candidate for deputy mayor because he wanted to give it a try. It was just a test, but he didn't expect to make it all the way to the final election. But he had never worked in a township, and he was suddenly asked to arrange for so many farmers who returned to their hometowns. He really had no idea. At this moment, Wang Yongchao was a little flustered, his face suddenly turned red, and he could only talk vaguely and generally. Although this defense is just a preview, people's morale is still very important. What's more, there are experts sitting in the audience, which may affect the next results. When the host announced the next person to take the stage, another tall and thin young man walked up to the podium with a smile. He was Luo Yubin, a volunteer teacher at Shanshan Peak Primary School. Luo Yubin stood in the middle of the podium, his eyes quickly moving on the countless unfamiliar faces in the audience, and suddenly he looked familiar.?The handsome face caught his eye. Luo Yubin was shocked: Why is she here? She is Luo Yubin¡¯s fianc¨¦e who works in the provincial capital. She has repeatedly proposed that Luo Yubin be transferred back to the provincial capital to start a family and start a business there. Luo Yubin's eyes did not dare to stay too long on this beautiful face. He knew that this moment was extraordinary, and how could he tolerate his own thoughts.
