Chapter 585 Tian Fengyi Passes the Buck
Yu Huabei seemed to realize this and did not continue talking. Instead, he turned the topic back to the subsidy, "You said that the Central Committee and the Provincial Party Committee don't support you. Isn't my support for you enough?
If I hadn't strongly recommended you to the Provincial Party Committee, your best bet would have been the Municipal Bureau, let alone the mayor of Wenshan. Even Secretary Pei said last time that your major wasn't suitable for Wenshan and that you should go into education. Yu Huabei paused, as if remembering something. "By the way, speaking of which, I heard you recently took on two more graduate students."
Tian Fengyi smiled and said, "The mayor's salary isn't very high. I figured since he's an honorary professor at Hanjiang University, I might as well take on two graduate students and earn some extra income."
Yu Huabei was so angry that he laughed and sneered again, "Not bad, Professor Tian, have you fully grasped the spirit of the instructions from your superiors? Are you ready to let the rich lead the poor? Or are you so focused on enriching yourself that you've forgotten about the people?"
Tian Fengyi's mind raced, "How could that be, old leader? If I had forgotten about the common people, this important signing wouldn't have been delayed.
The purpose of the road construction in Wenshan this time is to solve the problem of clothing and food for the people in the city. For this purpose, I also specifically asked Mada to give instructions in the bidding. Except for the necessary personnel, all workers must be recruited from laid-off workers. Even the national highway that was originally planned to be simply repaired will have its construction period extended by three to four months.
I calculated that based on the income from the construction site, more than a thousand laid-off workers will benefit from this and have a good New Year."
Yu Huabei's expression brightened considerably after hearing this. "It seems you're not stupid. You can come up with such an idea. Not bad, not bad." He pointed to the seat and asked, "How are the laid-off workers in Wenshan doing now?"
Tian Fengyi said: "The overall situation is improving. The municipal party committee and government have been taking measures, and the situation has been contained. Next, I plan to export labor like Beishan City did."
Yu Huabei waved his hand and said, "This method is suitable for Beishan, but not necessarily for Wenshan. I don't know much about Qi Tongwei you mentioned, but I do know a little about the Beishan Municipal Party Committee Secretary. His father is the Secretary of the Handong Provincial Party Committee. He has the support of the entire Handong Province. Let alone sending 10,000 workers, even tens of thousands more can be done."
Tian Fengyi was stunned and stopped talking.
In his heart, he was secretly cursing, "Damn it, another second-generation! He's using all his political resources, and he's still worried he won't get promoted?"
After all, China has a history of 5,000 years, passed down from generation to generation. How can ordinary people compete with this group of second-generation kids?
Just move your mouth and the results will come out.
Unlike him, who ran around for official positions and ended up becoming the mayor of a barren city like Wenshan in his fifties. His power is much lower than that of people in wealthy cities. Neither the disposable power nor the disposable financial resources can compare. Even the amount he can develop is frighteningly low, not to mention the achievements.
Yu Huabei thought he had dampened the enthusiasm of his old secretary, so he turned around and tried to comfort her. "Don't be discouraged, Wenshan has its own advantages. After all, it's close to the provincial capital and has the advantage of being close to it. I think we should find a way to start from this aspect. We can position Wenshan as a neighboring city of the provincial capital and use its advantages to attract talent and funds from the provincial capital."
Tian Fengyi didn't know how to describe his old leader. It was such a waste of the title of Doctor of Economics.
What advantage was there in being near the provincial capital? In his opinion, it was more like a disadvantage. Who would invest in Wenshan, a coal city and an old industrial base, when there was such a great provincial capital?
"Old leader, please stop talking about the advantages of being near the provincial capital. Over the years, not only have we not gained any benefits from the provincial capital, but we have almost been drained dry by it.
A few years ago, Governor Anbang proposed a plan to strengthen the provincial capital. This was a big deal, and several key enterprises in our Chengguan Industrial Park were relocated to the provincial capital. I heard they've recently set their sights on several local Wenshan companies. Under these circumstances, it's very difficult for Wenshan to develop.
Yu Huabei knocked on the table and said, "Hey, this isn't targeted at Wenshan, it's the same for other districts. Besides, this was all approved by the Provincial Party Committee, so I voted in favor as well.
And it's not just Hanjiang that's working on a plan to build a strong provincial capital; many places are doing the same. Without creating a unique provincial business card and becoming a leading city within the province, it's impossible to attract talent."
"Yes, I understand the provincial government, but they also need to understand us. It's fine for us to charge our batteries in the provincial capital, but we'll run out of power. Once we run out of power, the provincial government will ask why we don't turn on the lights at night. How can we turn them on?"
Yu Huabei sighed secretly, feeling extremely disappointed with his old secretary. He was not good at doing things, but he was really good at passing the buck.
But what else can he do? He has few people he can use, especially those who want to do things. Those who want to do things cannot gather under his hands. They all like to follow Zhao Anbang to charge into battle.
It is said that birds of a feather flock together. He does not think that his abilities are that bad, otherwise he would not be the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee. He has been suppressing Zhao Anbang to climb up over the years. Why don't his subordinates have the same abilities as himself?
Yu Huabei suppressed his anger and said, "But you are the mayor of Wenshan City now. Even if you don't turn on the neon lights, you should at least make some achievements. You can't just keep walking in the dark.
By then, not to mention you, even I, as a leader in the provincial party committee, won’t be able to hold my head up.
Do you know that Comrade Yihong has told me several times that he plans to adjust the Wenshan team? It's me! I'm trying to save my reputation and fight for you, saying I'll give you some more time.
As he spoke, Yu Huabei slammed the table repeatedly in excitement.
Tian Fengyi didn't dare to say anything more and could only nod. "Okay, okay, old leader, please don't get excited. I will strive to change the current situation in Wenshan within two years."
Yu Huabei sighed, not believing the other party's perfunctory words at all, but he still encouraged him, "You work hard. I will support you in the provincial government. There are several provincial projects recently, and I am trying to get them for you. But you also have to work hard and show more to show other provincial leaders that you are willing to do things."
Upon hearing this, Tian Fengyi showed gratitude and said, "It's still the old leader who cares about me. Don't worry, I will achieve more. I will have a meeting with Secretary Liu as soon as I get back to discuss it. I hope you can give us your approval then."
Yu Huabei nodded. "Okay, I'm planning to go to your Wenshan area soon to take a look. If you have any ideas, please sort them out and I'll check them out when the time comes."
"You are going to Wenshan?" Tian Fengyi was surprised.
"Why, I can't go?" Yu Huabei gave Tian Fengyi a strange look, "You're not hiding something from me, are you?"
"How could that be? I'm just so happy. I think the leaders and people of Wenshan will be very happy that you can return to Wenshan."
