Chapter 1886 Compromise with Liu Xiaoping

"Yes." Qin Feng nodded.

Xie Zhiguo did not ask Qin Feng what this subjective factor was.

Both of them knew what the subjective factors were.

"Are you coming to me today because you have encountered difficulties in your work?" Xie Zhiguo asked.

“Yes, both tourism support funds and relocation projects have encountered great resistance.”

"Tell me more specifically."

Qin Feng told Xie Zhiguo in detail about the situation of the two projects at the municipal government.

"What is the difficulty of the problem?" Xie Zhiguo asked.

"First, the attitude of Liu Xiaoping and the entire municipal government. Although the municipal party committee has determined that Yi'an County should be given priority and focus on development, Liu Xiaoping and the entire municipal government still tend to favor Tai'an County, which is completely contrary to the policy determined by the municipal party committee."

"Although they dare not blatantly violate the guidelines set by the municipal party committee, the municipal party committee can only provide guidance on the big strategy, and the power of specific implementation lies in the hands of the municipal government, which gives them a lot of room for maneuver."

"Just like the drafting of the plans for these two projects, the municipal government deliberately favored Tai'an County. Although the municipal party committee has determined that the development of Yi'an County is the priority, they can still come up with various reasons and excuses to prevaricate."

"The municipal government is not on the same page with the municipal party committee and refuses to obey the municipal party committee's resolution. This is the first difficulty we are facing."

"The second difficulty is... I, the deputy mayor, am just a figurehead and completely sidelined, so I can't carry out my work at the municipal government and can't play any role." Qin Feng chose to tell the truth.

Xie Zhiguo walked slowly and did not speak immediately.

"Please tell me in detail the current situation of these two projects and the attitude of the municipal government." Xie Zhiguo said.

At the township level, the party and the government are basically inseparable. There is not much distinction between the party committee and the government, and everyone works together.

At the county level, the Party Committee and the government began to separate, and each had its own scope of work. However, in actual implementation, the division was not so detailed. The general directions were separated, but the small details were not distinguished.

But it is different at the municipal level. The Party Committee is the Party Committee, and the government is the government. They each have their own powers and responsibilities. They are two different institutions and rarely appear together. Everything is implemented in accordance with rules and regulations.

Therefore, as the municipal party secretary, Xie Zhiguo will not interfere too much in the execution of the specific work of the municipal government, and he is not too familiar with the specific situation.

Qin Feng told Xie Zhiguo what had happened today with the Poverty Alleviation Office, the Culture and Tourism Bureau, Huang Jiancheng and Liu Xiaoping.

"Tell me your analysis." Xie Zhiguo continued to ask.

Leaders generally do not express their attitudes first, but will express their opinions after fully listening to others' opinions.

"Liu Xiaoping is trying to defeat the municipal party committee," Qin Feng said.

"Why do you say that?" Xie Zhiguo was very calm.

"Whether the relocation project is for Xuanqiao Village in Yi'an County or Yanggang Village in Tai'an County, it still needs to be decided by the municipal party committee. This is a major project and the municipal government has a lot of say, but the decision-making power lies with the municipal party committee standing committee."

Xie Zhiguo nodded and motioned Qin Feng to continue.

"Obviously, Liu Xiaoping is very powerful in Xiquan, but he still cannot completely control the Standing Committee."

Qin Feng was talking about the matter. In the municipal party committee, the municipal party committee secretary has absolute dominance, which is determined by the political system. In addition, coupled with the political legacy left by Xia Junhua, Xie Zhiguo has absolute say in the municipal party committee.

"So Liu Xiaoping should be aware that according to the municipal party committee's attitude of giving priority to the development of Yi'an County, the municipal party committee will most likely choose Yi'an County's Xuanqiao Village for this project. So what's the point of him insisting on moving this matter to Tai'an County? I don't think Liu Xiaoping is a person who would do useless work."

"In addition, Liu Xiaoping is still making a fuss about the allocation of tourism support funds, deliberately blocking the support funds for Yi'an County. I think his purpose should be to use the support funds for Yi'an County to make a deal with the Municipal Party Committee, so that the Municipal Party Committee will agree to give the relocation project to Tai'an County." Qin Feng said his analysis.

"Your analysis makes sense. For Yi'an County, getting this money is crucial to the tourism industry you are promoting, and it is also very urgent. In comparison, this relocation project is not that urgent for you, so he is very smart to make a fuss about this point."

"Actually, Liu Xiaoping came to me yesterday and talked to me about the relocation project. He didn't say it explicitly, but this was roughly what he had in mind. I have basically agreed with his opinion to place the relocation project in Tai'an County." Xie Zhiguo said as he walked.

Qin Feng was a little surprised, but he was not surprised that Xie Zhiguo would make this decision. Qin Feng was not surprised that Xie Zhiguo would make this decision, because there was no other way. As long as Xie Zhiguo stood from the perspective of the overall development and poverty alleviation strategy of Yi'an County, he had to make this compromise with Liu Xiaoping.

What surprised Qin Feng was that Xie Zhiguo had already known all these things. Before he came, he had always thought that Xie Zhiguo knew nothing, so he came to Xie Zhiguo specifically to talk about this matter.
