Name: My father Yuan Mu

Two years later, in mid-November 1992.

Inside the Office of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, Luzhou City, Handong Province.

At this time, there were quite a few people sitting in the conference room. At the first seat sat a man in his forties, who was Yuan Mu, secretary of the Luzhou Municipal Party Committee, director of the People's Congress, and first secretary of the military sub-district.

Sitting on his left was the first deputy secretary of the municipal party committee and mayor Tian Hongyi, and on his right was Kang Gaoyi, the full-time deputy secretary of the municipal party committee standing committee.

Next in order are Xun Zhicheng, member of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee and Minister of Propaganda, Dou Xuewen, member of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee and Minister of Organization, Du Yuquan, member of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee and Minister of United Front Work, Wei, member of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee and Political Department of Luzhou Military Sub-district, and Lu Gaoxuan.

There are eleven standing committee members in total, including Shi Gaoye, member of the Municipal Party Committee and Executive Vice Mayor, Han Qingcheng, member of the Municipal Party Committee and Secretary-General, Cui Gaocen, member of the Municipal Party Committee and Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, and Zong Yulong, member of the Municipal Party Committee and Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission.

After two years of development, Luzhou has undergone tremendous changes. Yuan Mu and Tian Hongyi worked together to build one road after another in the city, connecting villages to towns, towns to county towns, and county towns to the city. Basically, there are no major problems with road traffic.

There are many investors coming to the city, many of whom are from Shanghai and other southern cities, and some are from northern cities. Now Luzhou can be said to be changing every day and is developing extremely rapidly.

Of course, all this is due to the close cooperation between the top leader and the second-in-command. There have been no conflicts between the two in the past few years. They have been fully committed to development, which has led to the current good situation.

However, this situation may be broken today, because a new economic industrial park has been established in Luzhou, and the top two leaders have had a very big disagreement on the appointment of personnel in the industrial park.

Yuan Mu proposed that Gao Yuliang, secretary of the Jiangwu City (county-level city) Municipal Party Committee, be appointed as secretary of the Party Working Committee of the Economic and Industrial Park, while Tian Hongyi recommended Li Dakang, mayor of Shankun City (county-level city), be appointed as secretary of the Party Working Committee of the Economic and Industrial Park.

Naturally, neither of them would give in. Even a fool could tell that this industrial park had a promising future, and both sides naturally wanted their own people to be the top leaders. At the secretary's office meeting, the two started arguing, and Yuan Mu and Tian Hongyi even slammed the table at each other.

The secretary's office meeting naturally ended in a bad mood, and there was naturally no need to hold the five-member group meeting. They simply went straight to the Standing Committee to discuss the matter and see which side had more supporters.

In this newly established economic and industrial park, the secretary of the Party Working Committee and the director of the Management Committee are both at the deputy-department level, and all other positions are at the division level. The top leader will be on the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, so you can imagine how important he is. They were able to work together on previous matters, but not on this one!

Just yesterday, Yuan Mu specifically found Tian Hongyi and proposed to exchange the position of deputy mayor of the Standing Committee for the position of secretary of the Party Working Committee, but Tian Hongyi still did not agree.

It doesn't mean much. Now Tian Hongyi is almost in control of the municipal government, although he can't say that he has complete control over it. Having one more standing committee member and deputy mayor means at most one more vote in the standing committee. But the secretary of the Party Working Committee of the industrial park is different. He is much more important than a standing committee member and deputy mayor!

Yuan Mu crossed his hands on the table and looked around at everyone present. Tian Hongyi leaned back in his chair with an indifferent look on his face, while the others had different expressions.

"Comrades, today's meeting has one topic: to discuss the composition of the leadership team for the newly established economic and industrial park. I hope you will consider this issue seriously and rigorously."

"Comrades all know the importance of this industrial park to our Luzhou, so we must be extremely cautious in the composition of the leadership team to ensure that the industry in the park can proceed smoothly. Comrade Hongyi, what do you think?" Yuan Mu looked at Tian Hongyi and said.

Hearing Yuan Mu calling his name, Tian Hongyi straightened up from the backrest, glanced at Yuan Mu, then looked at everyone and slowly spoke.

"I think Secretary Yuan is right. The industrial park is indeed very important to us in Luzhou. Just as Secretary Yuan said, we must be extremely cautious in the composition of the leadership team."

The other members of the Standing Committee looked at each other. They all smelled a strong smell of gunpowder from the words of the two. It seemed that today's meeting would not be so easy to hold!

"Okay, Comrade Xuewen, let's read out the list of candidates for other standing committee members of the industrial park first." Yuan Mu glanced at Tian Hongyi and then said to the Organization Minister Dou Xuewen.

The Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee can appoint other members of the park's standing committee, but for the appointment of the park's top two leaders, the Municipal Party Committee only has the right to make recommendations. The final decision lies with the Provincial Party Committee. However, the Provincial Party Committee will fully consider the appointment of the Municipal Party Committee and generally will not reject the Municipal Party Committee's recommendation list.

But there are always unexpected things. Tian Hongyi has connections in the province, but Yuan Mu is not fighting alone in the province. However, just this year, Zhao Lichun became a member of the Standing Committee of the Politburo, which is very bad news for Yuan Mu.

Dou Xuewen nodded, then picked up the document next to him and began to read it. In fact, there was not much disagreement between Yuan Mu and Tian Hongyi on the list of standing committee members of the park, but a confrontation began between Yuan Mu and Tian Hongyi on the positions of full-time deputy secretary and executive deputy director.

The deputy secretary is the third-in-command of the park and his position is very important, while the executive deputy director is a leadership position in charge of daily work and is also very important. Neither of them wants these two positions to be taken away by the other.

"There are three candidates for the position of executive deputy director of Luzhou Economic and Industrial Park. They are Jing Ziping, executive deputy mayor of Cangtai City, Zhao Kui, propaganda minister of Shuchang City, and He Boping, organization minister of Pingjiang District. Now, please discuss it, comrades." After saying this, Dou Xuewen stopped talking.

Among these three candidates, the first one, Jing Ziping, is Yuan Mu's man, the second one, Zhao Kui, is Tian Hongyi's man, and as for the third one, he is just a runner-up and it is impossible for him to hold this position.

Kang Gaoyi coughed lightly and then spoke.

"I think Comrade Jing Ziping is still capable. He has served as the executive deputy mayor of Cangtai for two years and has sufficient experience. I think he is suitable to serve as the executive deputy director of the industrial park. I believe he can achieve better results in the industrial park."

"I think Comrade Zhao Kui is more suitable, and Comrade Jing Ziping..." Executive Vice Mayor Shi Gaoye was interrupted by Propaganda Minister Xun Zhicheng before he could finish his words.

"Deputy Mayor Shi, please pay attention, it's not your turn to speak yet!" Xun Zhicheng glanced at him and said lightly.

"You..." Shi Gaoye was a little angry when his spell was interrupted, and glared at Xun Zhicheng.

But Xun Zhicheng didn't even look at him, but started his speech directly.
