Nominal: Energy sector enters Handong, breaking the deadlock

The thirteen members of the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee left the venue one by one, each harboring their own calculations.

A proposal to freeze the appointments of 125 cadres was rejected, leaving Sha Ruijin with mixed feelings.

The first provincial party committee standing committee meeting was crushed by a newcomer, Song Yunhui.

Despite having so many teammates, he couldn't beat Ding Jianguo and Gao Yuliang.

They're a bunch of idiots, completely incapable of fighting.

Wan Changhai caught up with Song Yunhui, "Governor Song, your residence in Handong has been fully arranged. It's still the No. 2 compound of the Provincial Party Committee. The whole house is fully furnished and equipped with all the necessary appliances. You can move in anytime."

If you have any shortages or need to replenish any supplies or facilities, please let me know, and I will arrange for someone to take care of it immediately.

He adopted an extremely humble posture, fully demonstrating the thoroughness and tact of the provincial party committee's chief steward.

Regardless of what happened in the meeting, I must do what I'm responsible for.

Song Yunhui nodded. "Thank you for your hard work, Secretary-General Wan. Just give me the keys, thank you. I'd also like to go to the provincial government for an executive meeting."

Wan Changhai quickly handed over the keys, went on a speaking spree at the meeting, but in private, Governor Song was surprisingly nice. "Governor Song, will you arrange your own driver and secretary, or should I recommend someone?"

This is simply the job of the provincial party committee's chief steward.

The list was prepared long ago, and Sha Ruijin was specifically asked to review it.

It was revised three times.

Song Yunhui said with a smile, "If you have a list, just give it to me."

It's highly unlikely they'll use it; it's just to see Wan Changhai's personal abilities.

Upon hearing this, Wan Changhai dared not say another word. He handed the prepared list to Song Yunhui with both hands, saying, "Governor Song, it's all in the file folder."

Song Yunhui reached out and took it, glanced at it briefly, and then handed it to Zhou Haoyang.

"Keep Xiao Zhou safe," Song Yunhui said calmly.

"Yes, sir." Zhou Haoyang took the list and put it into his briefcase.

After saying goodbye to the group, Song Yunhui got into Ding Jianguo's car.

The driver started the car and slowly drove away from the provincial party committee compound.

Song Yunhui remained silent and looked out the window.

There is a large compound separating the Hantong Provincial Party Committee compound and the Hantong Provincial Government compound.

It is the residential area for the families of the provincial party committee and provincial government officials.

Next to the provincial government is the D School of the Hantong Provincial Party Committee.

The special car drove into the provincial government compound.

Song Yunhui saw a group of cadres lined up neatly in front of the main entrance of the office building.

The provincial government's Secretary-General Cheng Kairan, Vice Governors Zhang Hongyuan, Lin Zhao, Zhao Qilun, and Guo Mingyu, as well as the heads of various departments and offices of the provincial government, were all present.

Zhou Haoyang got out of the car first and opened the back door.

Song Yunhui bent down to get out of the car, his gaze sweeping calmly over the line of cadres, showing neither the arrogance of a newly appointed official nor the awkwardness of someone new to a foreign land.

He solemnly announced, "Comrades, good afternoon. I am the newly appointed Governor, Song Yunhui."

Thank you all for waiting for me today; I appreciate your enthusiasm.

thank you all.

The best work attitude is for everyone to perform their duties and stay at their posts. Everyone should return to their positions and get back to work as usual...

We don't engage in empty displays or superficial actions.

Unlike Sha Ruijin, who always prioritizes appearances and grand gestures, Song Yunhui, upon taking office, displayed a pragmatic and hardworking style.

Song Yunhui turned to look at Cheng Kairan, the provincial government secretary-general beside him, and said, "Secretary-General Cheng, please inform the team members later to convene the provincial government's executive meeting."

I'd like to meet with the team members, have a chat, and reach a consensus on our work approach.

The first priority upon implementation is to stabilize the leadership team before focusing on actual work.

Cheng Kairan nodded in agreement: "Okay, boss, I'll arrange for the notification to be sent out immediately."

Execution is top-notch, decisive and efficient.

With the new leader in charge, everyone is especially motivated.

The group moved into the provincial government office building, where Song Yunhui's office was located on the east side.

Cheng Kairan opened the office door.

Upon entering, the office environment is clean and tidy. Desks, chairs, bookshelves, meeting areas, and office equipment have all been arranged in advance and are spotless. All supporting facilities are complete and ready for immediate use.

Song Yunhui looked around and nodded slightly, seemingly satisfied.

The overall environment is well-planned, without being luxurious or extravagant, nor is it perfunctory or simplistic; it is sufficient to support daily office work.

It's relatively hassle-free; no additional modifications are needed.

Ding Jianguo greeted Song Yunhui, turned and left, closing the office door behind him.

Only Song Yunhui, Zhou Haoyang, and Cheng Kairan, the Secretary-General of the Provincial Government, remained in the office.

Cheng Kairan was a little nervous sitting next to Song Yunhui, mainly because he had never interacted with Song Yunhui before.

I wonder if the new governor will be easy to talk to.

"Governor Song, I have compiled a shortlist of candidates for your personal secretary and driver."

After saying that, he took out two lists from his briefcase and handed them to Song Yunhui with both hands.

Regardless of whether the leader needs it or not, you must be prepared.

It's one thing for leaders not to need it.

If your superiors require it but you are not prepared, it will be an accident.

Song Yunhui reached out and took it, casually placing it on the table. He then laid out the list that Wan Changhai had given him earlier.

The two lists are compared side by side.

You don't know until you compare them; once you do, the differences are extremely obvious.

The list provided by Wan Changhai includes more than a dozen drivers and secretaries from a variety of universities, mostly from out-of-province institutions.

None of them graduated from Handong University.

Kind of outrageous.

It's strange that Handong University, a national key university, didn't have it listed.

The list provided by Cheng Kairan, however, was completely the opposite.

Most of them are graduates of Handong University.

Song Yunhui lightly tapped the two lists with his fingertips and pushed them in front of Cheng Kairan.

His tone was flat and emotionless, revealing neither joy nor anger. "Secretary-General Cheng, could you analyze why the personnel structures on the two lists differ so drastically?"

Get straight to the point, don't beat around the bush.

Cheng Kairan carefully examined the situation, pondered for a moment, and dared not conceal the truth. He replied truthfully, "Governor Song, it's actually a recent event. Secretary Sha was parachuted into Handong, wasn't he?"

It is said that the list provided by Wan Changhai was selected based on comprehensive abilities, and most of them were outstanding graduates of Handong University.

However, upon seeing a large number of people from Handong University, Secretary Sha became enraged and immediately rejected the proposal.

Revealing secrets and uncovering undercurrents.

Song Yunhui nodded. "I see. The ones who suffer are the graduates of Handong University."

"If things continue like this, a portion of Handong University graduates will definitely be overlooked."

Cheng Kairan said helplessly, "Secretary-General Wan had no choice but to scrap everything and redraft it, deliberately avoiding all personnel from Handong University."

"I understand." Song Yunhui selected a driver from the list provided by Cheng Kairan.

Kong Erhu, a retired armed police officer, has undertaken provincial-level security missions multiple times and has a clean resume.

The key point is that I have never worked as a full-time driver for anyone.

The secretary has no intention of being replaced.

Zhou Haoyang had followed him for many years; he knew him inside and out, acted prudently, and was absolutely loyal.

We'll replace the secretary when Zhou Haoyang gets some experience in the lower levels.
