In officialdom: After she left, I rose rapidly through the ranks!

Surprisingly, someone actually asked to leave the inspection office.

They said they had no worries or concerns, that the workload might be too heavy for them to handle, but in reality, everyone knew the truth.

From the moment the government inspection office was reorganized, it became a sharp knife in County Chief Li's hand.

Previously, many people thought that even if they entered the inspection office, it might not matter much, and they could even accumulate some experience without offending anyone.

But who would have thought that County Chief Li would have clashed directly with Secretary Zhao today, and it seemed to be an irreconcilable conflict.

Next, the task of the inspection office is to directly target all public officials in the county, which has caused some people who use the inspection office as a stepping stone to accumulate seniority or to take advantage of the situation to have a headache.

If they don't leave now, they will definitely bear the marks of Chen Jingcheng, and even more so, the marks of Li Feitu.

If Li Feitu is destined to win, then this mark will be of great benefit to them in the future.

However, if Li Feitu loses, they will lose their chance for future promotion.

Even if they are promoted, it certainly won't be a position they're happy with.

But can Li Feitu win?

At least in the eyes of many people now, Li Feitu probably still has little chance of winning. Relying solely on brute force and pressure from superiors, he can't win many times.

If I don't leave before the Standing Committee meeting this time, I won't be able to leave after the meeting.

Therefore, when Chen Jingcheng asked who wanted to leave the Inspectorate, some people thought it over and chose to leave.

Chen Jingcheng looked at the young man in his mid-twenties in front of him and thought for a long time, never expecting that he would be the first to stand up.

Zhang Cheng is the deputy director of the Government Affairs Disclosure Office. Although he is called the deputy director, he is actually just an ordinary cadre who is not even at the deputy section chief level. He is just a deputy section chief in one of the departments under the Government Office. In fact, there may only be one or two people in a department. He is both the leader and the subordinate.

Zhang Cheng has been working in the government office for three years. Without a leader, his chances of promotion might be fewer than those who do. However, since he's in the government office, even if his chances are fewer, they won't be much less than those in other units, and he might even have more.

Zhang Cheng is 26 years old this year and has worked in the government office for three years. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be promoted in the next batch without much trouble. Even if he is not promoted, he will eventually be promoted in a few years.

This time, Director Gao transferred Zhang Cheng to the Supervision Office, which Zhang Cheng readily agreed to, actually hoping to secure a promotion opportunity.

But now, he has chosen to withdraw.

Chen Jingcheng was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Zhang Cheng, have you thought it through? If you have, I won't try to stop you. I've said it before, anyone who wants to withdraw can do so now."

"Just think it through yourselves. I'll talk to Director Gao."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Cheng looked embarrassed and said to Chen Jingcheng, "Director Chen, I think I should withdraw. I actually have quite a bit of work to do, and besides, I just got married not long ago, and my wife is already pregnant. If I'm too busy with work, I'm afraid I won't have time to take care of her."

"So, I'm sorry, Director Chen, I choose to withdraw!"

Chen Jingcheng didn't try to stop him at all, and simply nodded and said, "Okay, Zhang Cheng, you can leave now. I'll go and tell Director Gao in a bit."

Without hesitation, Zhang Cheng lowered his head and left the office.

After Zhang Cheng left, Chen Jingcheng showed no anger whatsoever, and asked with a smile, "Where are the others? Anyone else leaving?"

"It's okay, just say what you want to say. After all, if you're not satisfied with your work, your work efficiency won't be high either, and that's not the kind of person our inspection department needs."

"It's a two-way selection process. You choose the Inspection Office, and the Inspection Office is also choosing you. So, is there anything else?"

"If not, then you can't make this request again."

Chen Jingcheng was still waiting; he really wanted to see if anyone else wanted to leave.

He won't keep those who leave.

Sure enough, a man in his thirties sighed and said, "Director Chen, I'll leave too."

"Thank you for trusting me and transferring me from the township to the government office. However, after two days here, I realized that I might be more suited to working in the township."

"So, I think I'll go back."

The person who spoke was named Lin Qiang. He was indeed transferred from the township, personally transferred by Director Gao.

It is said that someone used Director Gao's connections to get Lin Qiang transferred to the government office.

Unexpectedly, he gave up on his own.

Chen Jingcheng also knew something about Lin Qiang's situation.

I'm almost thirty, and after working in a township for five years, I'm still just an ordinary cadre.

In terms of seniority, that's enough.

But that's how it is in township work. Sometimes, you can't get promoted just because you have enough seniority. It also depends on the right time and place.

Most importantly, Lin Qiang knew very well that even if he were promoted, he would most likely continue to work in the township as a deputy township head or a propaganda committee member. Then, he would be rotated through one position after another. Let alone becoming a secretary or township head, he probably didn't even have the chance to become a deputy secretary.

Let alone working for a few years and being transferred back, even if you work for another ten years or so, you'd be lucky to even get a position and be able to transfer back.

This time, when he was transferred to work in the government office, his chances of promotion were actually quite good. After all, he had enough seniority and years of service, and he also had experience working in townships. He was truly one of the top tier of people in the inspection office.

Unfortunately, he chose to give up.

Surprisingly, he preferred to return to work in a rural town rather than stay in the inspection office.

Chen Jingcheng didn't say much. He looked at Lin Qiang, smiled, and said, "Alright, Brother Lin, everyone has their own ambitions. I wish you a bright future."

"You can pack your personal belongings. After I talk to Director Gao, you can go back to your original unit."

After speaking, Chen Jingcheng's face remained completely expressionless. He looked at everyone and chuckled, "Anything else?"

"Zhang Cheng has left, Lin Qiang has left, is anyone else leaving the Inspection Office?"

"It's okay, just speak up. Like I said, it concerns your future, so you can make a choice."

"This is not shameful."

However, this time Chen Jingcheng waited for a long time, but no one said anything about leaving.

Guo Hu, however, leaned against the wall with his arms crossed and said with a smile, "Director Chen, you know what, this office space is a bit small and cramped to begin with. With two fewer people here, it's actually much more spacious."

"Of course, don't feel sorry for their departure; that's just how opportunities are in life."

"If they don't seize the opportunity when it comes, whether they regret it later is their business."

"Let me make this clear first: whoever wants to leave can leave, but I'm definitely not leaving."

"It's obvious that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. This is the county magistrate's protégé. He'll have plenty of opportunities for promotion in the future. If I leave, I'm afraid I'll slap myself in the face in my dreams."

"I've made up my mind. Unless I'm promoted to deputy section chief and then return to the Public Security Bureau, I'll stay here."

"As for what happens in the future, including things we shouldn't worry about, why should we worry about those things? I just don't believe that our county magistrate can really fight a battle he can't win."

"Even if I guessed wrong, it's no big deal. At least I've gotten involved, and now I'll have something to brag about, hahaha."

Guo Hu's witty remarks lightened the atmosphere considerably.

Moreover, his words also enlightened many people. Whether those who stayed were embarrassed to leave or genuinely didn't want to leave, at least they understood one thing: if they followed the rules, their future prospects might not be very good, and now was indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

How often do county magistrates and party secretaries have the opportunity to compete with each other and become the county magistrate's cronies, and even be given important positions by the county magistrate?

No, not many, not only not many, but very few.

If you have the opportunity to participate but choose to avoid it, that's what it means to miss an opportunity even when it comes.

Chen Jingcheng smiled and nodded, saying, "Brother Hu, you guys rest here for a bit. I'll go report the situation to Director Gao."

"The inspection office isn't taking in any more people. It's just the eleven of us now, and it will be in the future!"

After Chen Jingcheng finished speaking, he left the office directly. As for whether Zhang Cheng and Lin Qiang would regret it later, he didn't know. But he knew that once County Chief Li won, and once the people in the Supervision Office were gradually promoted, these two people would probably regret it and hate him for the rest of their lives.
