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

Director Gao thought for a moment and shook his head, saying, "The government office has already been assigned three deputy directors. However, among these three deputy directors, apart from Deputy Director Han who has only been in office for a short time, one of the remaining two deputy directors is already quite old. Even if he doesn't retire or is assigned to another unit, he can continue to work in the office as a section chief. The deputy director position can be handed over."

"Another deputy director has been working in the office for three or four years. Based on past arrangements and his daily work performance, he will also be transferred out of the government office and take up a post elsewhere in a while."

"So, although there aren't any now, there will be soon, especially for that comrade who is approaching retirement age. I can talk to him and see if he plans to retire to the second line or continue working but leave the position of deputy director."

The government office and the county party committee office have very high staff turnover. It's not uncommon for people to work in the government office until retirement. After all, although they are administrative units, the composition of their staff is quite diverse.

Logically speaking, this unit should be full of civil servants, but in fact, in addition to those on secondment and civil servants, the unit also has staff members who are considered civil servants, as well as those with public institution positions. Among the public institution staff, there are even management positions, professional and technical positions, and even skilled worker positions.

Mixed staffing and mixed job assignments may seem impossible, but in reality, it is the norm.

Therefore, not everyone in the government office can be promoted on time. Some people cannot be promoted, not because they lack ability, but because their files are wrong, their education is incomplete, or their status is not acceptable. It is a pity, but there is nothing that can be done. When the organization promotes and appoints cadres, it does not only look at your ability, but also at the hard requirements.

Because of this situation, many people retire from government offices, including some deputy section chiefs and section chiefs. Some who were not promoted for various reasons will also retire to the second line after reaching the age limit.

There are even cases where some leaders at the section chief level, who once served as the top party and government officials in townships or as the head of their units, end up retiring in the government office.

After hearing Director Gao's words, Li Feitu nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll leave this matter to you, Director Gao."

"Comrade Jingcheng, regarding the deputy section chief issue, please urge the Organization Department to expedite the process."

"At the same time, let Comrade Jing Cheng also take office in the government office."

After these words, Chen Jingcheng not only obtained the deputy section chief position, but also secured the substantive post of deputy director of the government office.

In one meeting, Chen Jingcheng covered a distance that others might take years, or even more than a decade, to traverse.

In terms of the future prospects of the deputy director of the government office, Chen Jingcheng has reached an end that others may never reach in their entire lives.

He just turned twenty-three this year.

At the same time, he was also deeply trusted and valued by County Magistrate Li Feitu. His future is not the end, but the beginning!

After finishing discussing Chen Jingcheng's matter, Li Feitu said with a smile, "I know you must be very curious as to why today's Standing Committee meeting took such a dramatic turn."

"Hehe, there are some things I can say, but some things I can't say. Maybe it's because Liu Qingshi is indeed unpopular."

"However, I am not surprised by Political Commissar Wu Qiang's vote. You may not know, but although I don't have any connection with Political Commissar Wu Qiang, I managed to find someone in the provincial military region to communicate with him. Political Commissar Wu Qiang has given me face."

Li Feitu spoke lightly, but the matter was far more complex than that.

It's unbelievable that a political commissar from the armed forces department, or even a member of the county party committee standing committee, would directly oppose the county party secretary at such an important meeting, or even embarrass the secretary.

This favor is no ordinary favor.

Similarly, someone who can persuade an active-duty colonel to do so must be no ordinary person.

Everyone says that Li Feitu has extremely strong connections and a very deep background in the province, but what exactly that background is, many people only have a vague understanding of.

This time, both Li Guangming and Director Gao realized that Li Feitu's background was even deeper than they had imagined.

After this incident, Li Feitu's future prospects are almost entirely bright, with few obstacles remaining. Therefore, Li Feitu's future will not be limited to just being a county magistrate or even a county party secretary; he will inevitably rise to a higher position.

In addition, Li Feitu's age is a factor to consider.

Following such a leader is by no means a bad thing for them.

After chatting for a few more minutes, Li Feitu said with a smile, "You all go ahead and get busy. Jing Cheng, stay here and I have a few words to say to you."

"Also, Director Gao, go and communicate with the County Party Committee Office and ask Secretary Zhao when he will have time, since the Standing Committee has already passed the resolution."

"Therefore, it is necessary to convene a meeting regarding the prohibition of drinking alcohol by public officials in Linchuan County during working days, and the relevant documents should also be issued."

"So, go ask about this."

Upon hearing this, Director Gao and Li Guangming immediately left Li Feitu's office. As they left, the office door opened, and Li Feitu could clearly see that there were quite a few people waiting outside.

Li Feitu did not react to this.

Before the meeting ended today, Li Feitu's office was not exactly deserted, but there were very few visitors.

Even the deputy county heads, who were also leaders of the county government, rarely went to his office to report on their work or ask for instructions.

Now, the meeting has just ended, and there's already enough room to stand in front of the office.

Humans are indeed driven by self-interest and the avoidance of harm.

In official circles, this behavior is used so skillfully by the vast majority of people that it has almost become instinctive.

After the door closed, Li Feitu pointed to the office door and said with a smile, "You weren't working in the government office before, so you don't know the situation, but you've been here for a few days now. Have you ever seen so many people at my door?"

"The meeting has just ended, and so many people have already received the news and are coming to me to ask for instructions and report. Haha."

Li Feitu shook his head and didn't say anything more.

He cannot say that these people are wrong just because they are opportunistic and come to report on their work.

Seeking advantage and avoiding harm is an instinct.

Although Secretary Zhao has not yet lost power, Li Feitu has already gained a firm foothold in Linchuan County, and has even reached the point where he can directly challenge Secretary Zhao.

Everyone knows that Linchuan County has undergone a major change.

If they don't come and show their loyalty now, even just to become acquainted with the people, what will happen when Secretary Zhao leaves and Li Feitu takes power?

Li Feitu shook his head, looked at Chen Jingcheng, and said, "Forget it, you've already experienced these things, and you'll only experience more in the future."

"All I can tell you, and what I want to remind you, is that you should never completely trust others, even if you feel very close to someone, or even that you would entrust your life to them. Always keep a backup plan."

"After all, the human heart is the most unpredictable thing."

"Especially because of your position, because of your power, those who were once ignored but later came running to you."

"These people come together because of your power, and they will eventually leave when you lose power."

At this point, Li Feitu lowered his head and thought for a moment, then shook his head and smiled, "However, Jingcheng, you don't need to worry about this. At least, for a long time to come, you won't have to worry about this."

Chen Jingcheng didn't understand what Li Feitu meant; he simply thought that Li Feitu was saying that he would always have power in the future, and that he, Chen Jingcheng, would naturally always have the respect of others.

Little did they know that Li Feitu meant that once Chen Jingcheng was known to that important figure and recognized his ancestors, Chen Jingcheng's future would be unimaginable!

If Chen Jingcheng were just an unambitious and incompetent person, that would be one thing. But Chen Jingcheng is exceptionally capable and ambitious, so his future is truly limitless.
