Changxi City is the prefecture of Changxi Prefecture and is also the political, economic and cultural center of Changxi Prefecture, but the economic development of Changxi City is not satisfactory.

Although Changxi Prefecture's economic development has been ups and downs in recent years, it is very unstable. When it is high, the economic growth rate has reached 22% and when it is low, it is only 6.5%, but generally speaking, the economic growth rate in recent years has barely kept up with the provincial growth rate. However, the disappointing Changxi City, the economic growth rate of Changxi City has almost been consistent and has not really exceeded the key point of 12%. Since 1998, the economic growth rate has been below double digits for six consecutive years. Compared with Changxi City, the economic development speed of neighboring counties, such as Mengshan and Maoyuan counties, have been relatively fast. In recent years, the growth rate of these two counties has been above 15% for three consecutive years. However, the total economic output of both counties is relatively low, and the pull of the economic growth rate in the whole province is still not obvious.

The total economic output of Changxi City accounted for more than one-third of the state in 1997. By 2003, the total economic output of Changxi City accounted for only one-quarter of the state in 2003. Last year, the total economic output of Changxi City exceeded 11 billion, while the GDP of Changxi City achieved 2.6 billion, but the economic growth rate was only 7.1%. The economic growth rate of Mengshan, which is close to the neighboring Mengshan, reached 14.7%, and the economic growth rate of Maoyuan reached 14.4%, both of which were twice that of Changxi City.

Since 1998, the secretary of the Changxi Municipal Party Committee has changed two positions in less than six years, but neither of the two municipal party committee secretaries have been able to change the decline in Changxi's economic development. This is also a major reason why the provincial party committee and the Changxi Prefecture Committee have made up their minds to completely change the lag in Changxi's economic development.

Since 1985, all the members of the Changxi Municipal Party Committee have been members of the Standing Committee of the Changxi Provincial Party Committee or the Deputy Governor of Changxi Provincial Party Committee and the Secretary of the Changxi Municipal Party Committee. However, they have never been able to serve as the Secretary of the Changxi Municipal Party Committee as the Deputy Secretary of the Changxi Provincial Party Committee. This time, Fang Guogang intends to break this convention. Grant the Changxi Municipal Party Committee Secretary greater voice, and of course, giving Tan Weifeng greater voice, which means that Tan Weifeng wants to make Changxi City a change that deserves the expectations of the provincial party committee in the next few years.

"Is it appropriate?" Rong Daosheng frowned slightly and looked at Fang Guogang sitting diagonally opposite. "The Organization Department's opinion is to be a member of the Standing Committee of the Prefectural Party Committee and Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee?"

"Well. Lao Zuo and the others meant to be a member of the Standing Committee of the Prefecture Party Committee and the Secretary of the Changxi Municipal Party Committee as usual, but I considered it. Tan Weifeng was originally transferred from other places. First, there must be an adaptation process. Being the deputy secretary of the Prefecture Party Committee will help speed up Tan Weifeng's adaptation progress, and it will also help Tan Weifeng establish it as soon as possible. Second, Changxi City's status has continued to decline in the prefecture in recent years. With Tan Weifeng as the deputy secretary of the Prefecture Party Committee, it can further stabilize the emotions of the cadres and the masses in Changxi City, and it will also help Changxi City re-establish the core position of Changxi Prefecture, which will be more beneficial to the next development of Changxi City."

Fang Guogang explained.

Rong Daosheng didn't speak for a while, and now the central government's concept of reducing deputy secretary has been basically established. Whether it is province, city, county, or county, the reduction of deputy secretary has been a trend, and further establishing the Standing Committee mechanism has become a trend of future development. Of course, in specific circumstances, the addition of deputy secretary is not a big problem. The key is that it is necessary.

The problem in Changxi Prefecture is indeed quite special. It is the only old revolutionary area in Changjiang Province. It is also an ethnic minority area. At the same time, the eight counties and cities in Changxi Prefecture plus a forest area are all underdeveloped areas. The old, young, poor and poor are accounted for three items, so Changxi Prefecture has always been a scar in Changjiang Province's heart.

Over the years, Changjiang Province has been paying great attention to the development of Changxi Prefecture, and has also spent a lot of effort and huge investment.

In early 2002, Changjiang Province invested huge amounts of money to build the Qingchang Expressway in Qingxi-Changxi Prefecture, which is a major measure. It is expected to be officially completed and opened to traffic by the beginning of next year, and Changjiang Province will officially complete the great achievement of connecting expressways in all cities and prefectures in the province. At the same time, the province is actively coordinating the planning and preparing to launch the Tanchang Expressway in Changxi Prefecture-Canton Province. This will open up the entire line of Changzhou-Qingxi-Changxi-Tanzhou-Tanzhou-Changzhou-Chang*sha, and this can also build Changxi Prefecture into a gateway hub for the west gate of Changjiang Province.

However, the development of Changxi Prefecture is still far behind other regions in the province. For example, Quyang, which had the second-last economic output in 2003, had a population of 1.3 times that of Changxi Prefecture, but its total economic output is twice that of Changxi Prefecture. Quyang's per capita GDP is also the second-last in the province, which shows the development dilemma of Changxi Prefecture.

There are many problems that plague the development of Changxi Prefecture. First, the natural conditions are the natural conditions. The whole province is located in the Luogang Mountains, and the transportation is inconvenient, which is the biggest bottleneck; second, the people's customs are closed, the ideas are conservative and xenophobic, the quality of cadres is uneven, and the acceptance of new foreign ideas and new concepts is slow, which is also a key factor; third, the development of cultural and educational undertakings is extremely lagging, and the literacy rate of Changxi Prefecture is less than half of the provincial average, which greatly restricts the development of Changxi Prefecture; fourth, the economic foundation is backward, especially the industry, which is almost non-existent.

Under such circumstances, although the Changjiang Provincial Party Committee has also spent a lot of effort on the development of Changxi Prefecture, the effect is always unsatisfactory. This time, Changjiang Province plans to work hard on the cadre team and supplement it with other policies to carry out a thorough transformation of Changxi Prefecture, striving to make a major change in the appearance of Changxi Prefecture within three to five years.

In addition to Tan Weifeng, Songzhou and Fengzhou also had three cadres entering Changxi Prefecture to work. Among them, Li Youjun was appointed as a member of the Standing Committee of the Prefecture Party Committee, Gucheng County Party Committee Secretary, and Songzhou Investment and Merchants Bureau Director Gu Wei was appointed as the Secretary of Luogang County Party Committee, Fengzhou Fulong District Party Committee Deputy Secretary, and District Mayor Feng Xihui was appointed as the Secretary of Ma Teng County Party Committee.

As this group of cadres entered Changxi Prefecture, seven cadres from the provincial government also came to Changxi Prefecture and counties and cities to serve. They were basically all appointed as members of the county party committee standing committee, either serving as executive deputy county magistrate or secretary of the Party Working Committee of the Economic and Technological Development Zone. In short, it was to open up the situation in order to develop the economy.

"Well, Lao Fang, I think it's okay. Changxi Prefecture has very poor conditions. These cadres are all outstanding cadres selected from Songzhou, Kunhu and Fengzhou. I have read the resumes of these people. Comrade Tan Weifeng has a rich resume. During his tenure as the county party secretary in Yehe County, he opened up a situation for the transformation of Yehe's economy. After Su Qiao as the county party secretary, Su Qiao's steel machinery industry upgrade has shown a new situation. This comrade has a good economic work, and the other cadres have also performed outstandingly in grassroots economic work. For example, Li Youjun is in Xita, Gu Wei is in Luxi, and Feng Xihui is in Fulong, all have performed well. When they go to Changxi, they will face a more difficult and difficult situation. Can they open up the situation under worse conditions? This is also a test and tempering for them. Of course, we must provide them with stronger support so that they can break the deadlock as quickly as possible."

Rong Daosheng spoke a little slower, and seemed to be weighing something. "This time, the province tried to promote development in Changxizhou, Quyang and Xiliang, which had slow development in several areas with slow development. This is also a quest and may not have an immediate effect. However, I have always believed that the key to the development of a place lies in the cadres, and the core of the cadres lies in the team. The key to the team lies in the concept. There is no doubt that a leader has the leading role of a team's philosophy and style. I hope that the provincial party committee can have a good driving role in this way."

"Secretary Rong, solving the ideological problems of cadres is indeed the key. This round is to replace cadres in our province who are good at economic work. My idea is that the next step is to select some cadres from underdeveloped and backward areas and arrange them to work and train in economically developed areas. Such cadres can be lower at the level, such as some section-level cadres and deputy department-level cadres who have performed better in economic development. They should not do a one-and-a-half-year and one-time training, but at least three years. They should truly integrate into the thinking mode and development concept of these developed areas. Only by completely changing their existing thinking concepts can they truly change the appearance of their hometown after they go back."

Fang Guogang's suggestion made Rong Daosheng feel moved. The exchanges between cadres are mutual, but many exchanges and appointments are carried out through training. This short-term training can easily become a gilded position. If it is based on the three-year exchange and appointment time, then these cadres may have to consider it carefully. After all, three years are not short for a cadre. A life of nothing can be achieved in three years, which is not easy for one person and the organization.

"Well, Lao Fang, your opinion is very meaningful. Training on a job is a good way, but the monk has been chanted by the wavy monk. After a year and a half, many people think it is more like a vacation. As long as you don't cause trouble for the job, the job never takes the other party, thinking that you just need not get in the way. So this method is becoming more and more formal. I have been considering this issue for a long time. The job cannot be reduced to a pure job, which is of no benefit to the growth of cadres, and it is also a waste for the local area. To truly reflect the value and significance of this kind of cadre exchange and training, Lao Fang, your work focus must be gradually adjusted. You should pay more attention to the work of the Organization Department during this period and hurry up. The work of the Organization Department cannot be idle, and it cannot be superficial."

This is the first time that Rong Daosheng clearly expressed his dissatisfaction with organizational work in front of Fang Guogang.
