Chapter 78: Mental Calculation

  The next key issue is the personnel problem of the director of the government office. On this issue, Liu Wanhua spoke very cleverly, Wang Ping was unclear about the situation and didn't dare to speak out, while Li Gang bowed his head in silence, apparently deep in thought on how to deal with it.

  Zhang Qingyun could deeply feel the pressure on Li Gang, Liu Wanhao just threw out three questions, actually focusing on the government office director candidate. The previous ones were all paving the way, Li Gang didn't dare to give up Wu Xue Shu, he had to stick with him until the end. He stuck with Wu Xue Shu, and it was hard for him to open his mouth afterwards, otherwise the county party committee organization department's carefully selected cadres would be completely vetoed by you as the county head, could this still be called organizational discipline?

  After a long time, Lijiang finally lifted his head, looking like he was about to speak. Zhang Qingyun's heart relaxed a bit as he knew that Lijiang was going to use the "dragging" tactic. He would drag this issue out for now and come up with some excuse, such as saying he wanted to have a personal chat with Han Kai, or something else. Anyway, he would drag it out first, ease the tension, and then take his time to figure things out.

  But just at this moment, Wu De spoke up: "I think the position of director of the government office should be taken seriously, and it's best to have a young and promising cadre take on the role. I personally suggest transferring County Committee Office Deputy Director Zhang Qingyun to take on this responsibility. As for Comrade Qingyun's abilities, there's no need for me to elaborate - everyone has seen them with their own eyes. The successful handling of the Gao Jianyu incident this time is a testament to his contributions...

  Moreover, most importantly, he is familiar with office work and can start working right away without needing much time to adapt. What do you all think?

  Zhang Qingyun's heart skipped a beat and jumped to his throat, the pen in his hand almost fell to the ground, and he was shocked beyond words. How could Wu De nominate himself? However, soon he vaguely sensed that things might not be so simple, and his head felt a chill.

  "Qingyun, you'd better step aside for now! Call over Lei Meng comrade to continue taking notes. County Magistrate Wu has nominated you, so you should avoid suspicion!" Huang Sushan said with a gentle smile.

  "Oh......oh......yes!" Zhang Qingyun stood up somewhat awkwardly, everyone's eyes were on him, he hastily put down the pen in his hand and quickly walked out the door, all the way his heart was unsettled.

  He and Lei Ming exchanged greetings, Zhang Qingyun stood in the courtyard, looking at the small red door of the county party committee's small office, his heart was ups and downs, he couldn't hear what was being said after the standing committee meeting, but he vaguely felt that something was wrong, Wu De had taken notice of him.

  Wu De's nomination as the director of the government office is clearly a case of self-promotion. He promoted himself to deputy department head just a few months ago, how could he possibly get promoted again so soon? In a county-level unit, the gap between deputy department head and full department head is like a chasm, can he really get promoted after just one trip back from Wu De? The organizational seriousness is too lacking.

  Wude's Mingzhi knew that this proposal would not pass, but he still brought it up. Zhang Qingyun judged that his intention was to catch Li Gang off guard and not let him use the "dragging" tactic on the appointment of the director of the government office. He wanted to quickly take down this key position.

  Secondly, he obviously wants to make things difficult for Li Gang. Who doesn't know that Zhang Qingyun is Li Gang's person? You're not fond of promoting cadres who don't follow the usual rules, are you? He's putting Zhang Qingyun on the table, daring you to promote him. Li Gang dares neither promote his own people nor is he satisfied with the candidates from the Organization Department. How can this head of government coordinate and handle relations with all sides?

  This is the third one, Zhang Qingyun judged that Wu De was hinting that everyone's work needed to be rearranged. He reminded Huang Songshan that he was a stern person and it was not suitable for him to continue in the county committee.

  Since self-promotion is not yet qualified, how to arrange? Go down to the township and be a deputy secretary, deputy mayor? Zhang Qingyun judged that Wu De's proposal for himself to take up a deputy position in Yongping Sanzhen was most likely, because Yongping Sanzhen was half a grade higher than other townships, and going there would match his "meritorious" identity. Among the three towns of Yongping, he was most likely to go to Qinghe Town, which was Wu Zhiqiang's turf.

  As soon as he thought it through, Zhang Qingyun's cold sweat poured down, and Wu De was too old and cunning. It seemed that he had already become a thorn in his eyes, and he would not rest until he got rid of him from the county committee compound.

  As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Qingyun felt weak all over his body, but he had a plan in mind. Once the Organization Department wanted to transfer him to Qinghe, he would expose that U disk, but this was only a last resort. It seemed that he needed to have a talk with Huang Shuji and Wu Dezheng.

  The Standing Committee had not yet adjourned when it was time to get off work. Zhang Qingyun was preparing to get off work when a text message came in on his mobile phone:

  "Qingyun, after the Standing Committee meeting is over, go to Secretary Huang's place and think carefully about how to phrase it! Lijiang!"

  Zhang Qingyun let out a sigh, knowing that Lijiang was indirectly telling himself that he had no power to support himself. However, the only good news is that his whereabouts were still uncertain, and it was estimated that Huang Songshan had been suppressed.

  "Director Zhang, Director Zhang! What are you thinking about?" The sharp voice of Lei Meng came from behind him. He had also lost his usual arrogance lately. As the deputy secretary of the county government and the vice director of the county committee office, with Liu Qing around, it was hard for him to get ahead.

  "Oh, Director Lei! Is the meeting over? Let me give you my notes and you can organize them!" Zhang Qingyun said with a polite smile.

  Lei Meng nodded, took the meeting records from Zhang Qingyun's hand, glanced at it, and frowned: "Director Zhang seems to be absent-minded, there are mistakes in the number of participants, Secretary Zhang Huajie of the Political and Legal Committee asked for sick leave and did not attend the meeting, didn't you know?"

  "Oh, sorry about that... I made a mistake, thanks for reminding me." Zhang Qingyun said with embarrassment, suddenly he had an idea and asked: "What's wrong with Secretary Zhang? Is it serious? How come I haven't heard about it?"

  "Ah?" Lei Meng was somewhat surprised, and immediately sighed and shook his head: "In just these few days, the world is unpredictable! Secretary Zhang might be in trouble this time! He has liver cancer and had surgery at the provincial hospital, the situation doesn't look good."

  "Little brother! Today is a cold spring day, isn't it? At this time of year, it's still chilly outside and I don't dare to go out easily! We both need to take care of ourselves!" Lei Meng said with deep meaning, patted Zhang Qingyun's shoulder, and revealed a hint of helpless smile at the corner of his mouth before turning around and leaving.

  Zhang Qingyun watched as Lei Meng disappeared into the distance, lost in thought. After a long time, a faint, unattractive smile finally appeared at the corner of his mouth: "The path of martial virtue is deep and treacherous, I, Zhang Qingyun, am not a lamb to be slaughtered by anyone. Let's see how things go!"

  Knock on Huang Songshan's door, and a thick voice came from inside: "Come in!"

  "Hello Secretary Huang! I hope I'm not disturbing you?" Zhang Qingyun said respectfully.

  "Oh, Qingyun? You're still not off work so late! Are you waiting for me on purpose? Speak up, what's the matter, no need to hide anything." Huang Songshan said straightforwardly.
