Nominal: Energy sector enters Handong, breaking the deadlock

Back then, choosing to change Ding Jianguo's fate by sending him to Handong was the right move.

If the other two members of the provincial government's standing committee are ungrateful, then he, as the governor, will be in a very passive position.

Ding Jianguo persisted, pressing further: "Ren Zhimin, since you're so busy and have such a distinguished record, let me ask you: this year, what livelihood issues have you personally spearheaded that have been genuinely resolved for the people of Handong, and what projects have been implemented to benefit them?"

It directly addresses concrete achievements and cannot be faked.

Sha Ruijin realized he had been careless. If he had known Ding Jianguo was such a good fighter, he would have definitely brought him into his camp.

Ren Zhimin was momentarily speechless, stammering and unable to answer, so he could only ask in return, "Ding Jianguo, then what problems have you solved?"

They were forced to retaliate passively and ended up in a sorry state.

Not answering and asking others is also a strategy, a somewhat disadvantageous tactic, but a last resort.

Ding Jianguo frankly said, "Secretary Sha, Governor Song, Secretary Gao, comrades, I, Ding Jianguo, do not like to take credit or promote myself. I am saying this entirely to clear my name."

I took the lead in supervising the hardening of rural roads and the project to provide tap water to every village across the province, coordinating the transportation and water conservancy departments, and working at the grassroots level in counties to promote the implementation of infrastructure projects.

The achievements are not achieved through publicity or media coverage, but entirely through the tangible benefits they bring to the people.

Of course, the credit goes to the unified guidance of the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government, and to the hard work of grassroots cadres and the masses. I, Ding Jianguo, never take credit for anything.

"Without the hard work of the people of Handong, I wouldn't have been able to accomplish any of this."

Every word was pragmatic, and the achievements were solid, attributing the attacks to the people.

The rank has increased considerably.

As soon as he finished speaking, applause erupted in the conference room.

clap clap clap!

Song Yunhui led the applause, saying, "Comrades, Ding Sheng's down-to-earth work style and honest service to the people are the role models that all cadres in the province should learn from. I suggest that when the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government commend advanced individuals, they can nominate Comrade Ding Jianguo. We must take note of such a people-friendly role model."

Changing the subject, Song Yunhui returned to the main topic, "Comrades, I, Song Yunhui, have just arrived in Handong."

Our organization's principle includes the right to speak without investigation.

Since I am not familiar with the past work of each member of the leadership team, I will not make subjective judgments or draw any conclusions about Ren Changsheng's work performance.

However, judging from today's meeting and the comparison of work, Ding Sheng's pragmatic attitude is indeed more in line with the development needs of Handong.

Make public statements, set an example, and give a warning to lazy officials.

In comparison, Ren Zhimin was outshone by Ding Jianguo.

His abilities were only highlighted by his peers.

Gao Yuliang chimed in, "Governor Song is absolutely right. Ding Jianguo's pragmatic work style is something we should all learn from."

I think it's necessary to invite Comrade Ding Jianguo to give a lecture to our political and legal system cadres at the Provincial Political and Legal Affairs Commission when necessary.

Look at what they're saying. They're not saying Ren Zhimin is incompetent, but Ding Jianguo is outstanding.

Ren Zhimin felt that he was the most shameful person today, having become the clown.

It's like eating bitter melon; you can't express your suffering.

Song Yunhui surveyed the room. "Comrades, let's return to the core issue: the freeze on the promotion of 125 reserve cadres. Does any member of the Standing Committee have a statement, or a different opinion?"

Sha Ruijin listened quietly, intending to speak, but Song Yunhui beat him to it.

Wan Changhai, Secretary-General of the Provincial Party Committee, raised his hand to indicate, "I support freezing it."

The principle of "quality over quantity" must be upheld in cadre promotion, resolutely preventing the promotion of unqualified individuals and adhering to the bottom line in personnel matters.

Wan Changhai is the Secretary-General of the Provincial Party Committee, and as the chief steward of the Provincial Party Committee, he must side with Sha Ruijin.

Song Yunhui was not angry when he said that.

However, since they're not one of our own, let's give them a warning.

Song Yunhui's eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately retorted, "Secretary-General Wan, do you mean to take a blanket approach and freeze all promotions regardless of whether cadres are clean or not, or whether they are capable or not? To deny them any opportunity for advancement?"

Another trap.

Wan Changhai was momentarily speechless, stammering, "Governor Song, what I mean is a temporary freeze. We'll consider it again when it's unfrozen."

"When will it be thawed? Is there a time limit?" Song Yunhui pressed.

Wan Changhai looked at Sha Ruijin, then at Tian Guofu, and both of them shook their heads.

Wan Changhai said with a bitter face, "I don't know. Anyway, it's frozen for now."

If it weren't for the need to arrange accommodation for Song Yunhui, Wan Changhai would have liked to leave immediately.

Meng Zhaoyuan, the head of the United Front Work Department of the Provincial Party Committee, having finished observing the situation, stated: "I abstain from the vote."

I only have some understanding of a few cadres within the United Front system; I am completely unaware of the resumes, achievements, and conduct of the remaining hundred-plus cadres. Since I don't know them, I will not comment or blindly follow; therefore, I abstain.

Maintain neutrality and protect yourself wisely.

Zhou Tiejun, commander of the provincial military district, then spoke up, "I also abstain. I am quite familiar with military veterans and cadres in the military system, but I don't have enough knowledge of local administrative cadres, so I won't vote arbitrarily."

I abstained, and I am proud.

Freezing the market was a terrible move; Sarekin was incredibly stupid.

After a moment of silence, Li Dakang, the Party Secretary of Jingzhou City, finally spoke: "I abstain."

The non-stick pan truly lives up to its reputation.

At this point, the outcome of the vote was clear.

The following four votes were cast in favor of freezing the asset: Tian Guofu, Wu Chunlin, Ren Zhimin, and Wan Changhai.

The four votes against freezing the asset were: Gao Yuliang, Song Yunhui, Ding Jianguo, and Su Jingfeng.

Abstain: Meng Zhaoyuan, Zhou Tiejun, and Li Dakang, a total of three votes.

The remaining Standing Committee members no longer need to express their opinions; it is absolutely impossible for more than half to support freezing the shares.

Sha Ruijin's meticulously planned personnel freeze scheme has completely failed.

It's fair to say they lost everything, down to their underwear.

A hint of a smile flashed across Ding Jianguo's eyes. "Comrades, it's already very clear that the frozen proposals cannot pass the Standing Committee's vote."

The dust has settled, and the overall situation is settled.

Everyone was ready to leave the meeting and go home to their own mothers.

At this time.

Song Yunhui added insult to injury, "Provincial Ding, don't rush to conclusions."

As the provincial party secretary, Comrade Ruijin held veto power.

Even if all twelve remaining Standing Committee members vote in favor of or against a resolution.

The vote is invalid if he personally vetoes it.

Revealing the final trump card reminds everyone of the privileges of the top leader.

The entire room fell silent once more, and all eyes turned to Sha Ruijin.

Will you use Sar-Rexate?

This became a highlight.

Sha Ruijin sat quietly for a moment, his face somber, weighing the pros and cons in his mind.

Using a veto might turn the tide, but it would exacerbate internal conflicts within the leadership team and give the team an excuse to accuse them of being autocratic and suppressing hard-working cadres, ultimately resulting in more harm than good.

He might even be summoned for questioning by the central government, who would say he has no control over the provincial party committee standing committee.

If I use it twice, I can go back home and farm.

A shrewd person like Sha Ruijin would never make a deal that doesn't yield the desired results.

After a long pause, Sha Ruijin slowly spoke, his sharp edge softened, and he yielded and compromised: "Since the majority of the Standing Committee members do not approve of the freeze, then the resolution to freeze will not be passed."

Sha Ruijin was a little confused; how could he have played such a good hand so badly?

Sha Ruijin forgot to say the meeting was adjourned, so it was Song Yunhui who announced the adjournment.
