Life Reset: I’m the Master in the Officialdom

Everyone stood up.

Minister Qingliang sat in the center of the table and waved to everyone with a smile, saying, "Please take a seat."

Secretary Shi Hongwen placed the minister's notebook and water cup, then sat down on the stool at the back.

Shi Hongwen, who is the minister and director of the First Cadre Department, also has a seat at this table.

"Let's begin the meeting, comrades. I've reviewed our cadre adjustment plan. It's quite significant. I agree with most of the content in principle, but there are a few individual cadres we need to discuss in detail. Changjiang, could you please first explain the specific details of this cadre adjustment?"

Minister Qingliang spoke with such force that everyone present spoke with a resonant, clear voice and a steady pace, which was very pleasant to listen to. His tone was firm and confident, revealing an authority and decisiveness that made people feel convinced.

"Okay, Minister, leaders, colleagues, the general principles of this cadre adjustment follow the relevant instructions of the Provincial Party Committee..."

Executive Vice Minister Guan Changjiang introduced the main circumstances of this cadre adjustment.

Next was Deputy Minister Liu Ye, and the First and Second Cadre Departments made detailed supplements.

Finally, it was Minister Qingliang who proposed that Guo Songwen, Director of the Quancheng Public Security Bureau, be appointed as Executive Vice Director of the Provincial Public Security Department. Since it was the Provincial Public Security Department that made the request, the proposal was passed smoothly.

Everyone unanimously approved the proposal to appoint Guo Songwen, Director of the Quancheng Public Security Bureau, as Executive Vice Director of the Provincial Public Security Department and submitted it to the Provincial Party Committee for approval.

Next is the cadre adjustment within the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department.

"Minister Liu Ye, please tell us."

"Leaders, according to the instructions of the Provincial Party Committee, we need to promote two deputy-department-level cadres within the Organization Department. They are Shi Hongwen, Director of the First Cadre Division, and Guo Wei, Director of the Civil Servant Management Division."

"Shi Hongwen, director of the First Cadre Department, was promoted to the Quancheng Municipal Party Committee as deputy secretary and mayor. The director of the Civil Servant Management Department was promoted to the Linqing Municipal Party Committee as a member of the Standing Committee and head of the Organization Department," said Liu Ye.

Shi Hongwen's promotion was undoubtedly a foregone conclusion. As the minister's secretary, promotion was a matter of time, and it would certainly be an important position. Everyone present knew this clearly.

When it was everyone's turn to speak, the leaders expressed their opinions and unanimously agreed on the meeting agenda.

In fact, Shi Hongwen and Guo Wei are both deputy director-level cadres. Guo Wei's promotion is a normal promotion, while Shi Hongwen's position is considered to be under-qualified. If Shi Hongwen is promoted one step further, he will only be deputy director-level, while the deputy secretary of the Quancheng Municipal Party Committee and the mayor are director-level positions.

Although everyone agreed unanimously, some doubts arose in their hearts.

There's nothing I can do about it. He's the leader's personal secretary, and he's not even forty years old yet he's already sat on the mayor's throne.

Comparing people with others will lead to death, and comparing goods with goods will lead to throwing away!

Although everyone's feelings are complicated, there is no jealousy.

Everyone knows what the leader’s secretary represents!

After everyone had spoken, Zhao Qingliang gave a closing speech: "Comrades, today's personnel arrangements have been approved by the Ministry's executive meeting. The Personnel Department should quickly prepare a plan, go through the procedures, and then submit it to the Provincial Party Committee for approval. Today's meeting is over. Adjourn."

Discussing the promotion of cadres is only the first step. There are still many processes to go through, including cadre inspection, provincial party committee approval, solicitation of opinions, public disclosure of information, and organizational feedback before they can actually take office.

Of course, after taking office, it is only an acting position, and it must ultimately be approved by the National People's Congress to be considered as truly performing its duties.

In the following period of time, almost all the staff of the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department were mobilized. Since there were many cadres to be promoted and appointed this time, all the staff were sent to various prefecture-level cities for inspection.
