405: Chapter 405 Adjusting Sun Lanying's Work

Before the Standing Committee meeting was held, Director of the Culture and Tourism Bureau Ji Jie came by again.

Following Qin Chuan's instructions and guidance, she had issued official documents and adopted a series of measures to rectify and improve the tourism market in Dongjiang City.

For example, lowering ticket prices for major scenic spots, expanding the range of people eligible for free admission, and announcing the maximum guidance prices for accommodation in various guesthouses and hotels, which could not be exceeded at any time, among other things.

"Secretary Qin, the official documents are ready. Please take a look and see if there is anything that needs to be modified."

She didn't go to Mayor Liu, but came directly to me. Director of the Culture and Tourism Bureau Ji Jie is not bad, Qin Chuan thought with satisfaction as he took the file and started reading it.

After reading it, he pointed out a few places that only needed minor adjustments; there were no major issues with the document as a whole.

"After making the modifications I just mentioned, the Culture and Tourism Bureau can send it out directly. Require the relevant departments to strictly execute the document."

"Okay, we will announce and distribute it as soon as possible!"

Watching Director of the Culture and Tourism Bureau Ji Jie leave, Qin Chuan checked the time; it was less than ten minutes before eleven o'clock in the morning, so he could head over early.

When Qin Chuan walked into the meeting room, only Deputy Secretary Zhou Nan and Minister Xiao Ruojun had arrived, and they were chatting happily.

A while later, the other members of the Standing Committee arrived one after another.

Mayor Liu was the last to arrive, almost exactly on time. Seeing Qin Chuan already sitting there, he was slightly taken aback.

"Secretary Qin is already here," he said with a smile.

Qin Chuan nodded slightly and then said in a clear voice, "Everyone is here, so let's begin the meeting. Secretary-General Tian Chaoqun, please take the minutes."

Secretary-General Tian Chaoqun quickly opened his notebook and began taking shorthand notes.

The meeting room went quiet, and everyone's eyes fell on Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan did not waste any words and said clearly, "There is only one topic for today's meeting, and that is to make some minor adjustments to everyone's work."

Adjusting work and responsibilities was the authority of the leader.

Everyone was just a little surprised; Secretary Qin had only been in office for a few days, so it was quite fast to start adjusting everyone's work.

Everyone perked up their ears, especially when their own areas were mentioned, listening very carefully.

Many felt a slight sense of relief; their worries were unnecessary as the adjustments were minor and only constituted slight tweaks.

But when it came to Secretary-General Sun Lanying, the adjustment was anything but minor.

"Regarding the work of Secretary-General Sun Lanying, the following adjustments will be made. Considering she is very busy and cannot even find the time to report her work to me, she no longer needs to manage the Municipal Party Committee Office. Secretary-General Tian Chaoqun will be fully responsible for it, and Secretary-General Sun Lanying just needs to focus on her work as Secretary-General..."

Everyone was stunned!

They had never seen such an adjustment; this was equivalent to completely sidelining Secretary-General Sun Lanying. If she didn't have to manage the Municipal Party Committee Office, she would become a figurehead with nothing but the title of Secretary-General, which was useless.

Some Standing Committee members smiled meaningfully, knowing that Secretary Qin was doing this on purpose, especially Deputy Secretary Zhou Nan and Minister Xiao Ruojun, who exchanged glances and smiled.

Secretary-General Sun Lanying's face flushed slightly, and as soon as Qin Chuan finished speaking, she couldn't wait to say, "Secretary Qin, I do not agree with this adjustment!"

Qin Chuan said, "I am not asking for your consent. As a veteran comrade, you must obey the organization's arrangements."

Secretary-General Sun Lanying wanted to say something more, but didn't know what to say, so she looked at Mayor Liu for help.

Mayor Liu coughed lightly and said, "Secretary Qin, I think this adjustment is also inappropriate. The change is too drastic. Secretary-General Sun Lanying holds the concurrent position of Director of the Municipal Party Committee Office. Unless she is relieved of that position, she should be fully responsible for the work of the Municipal Party Committee Office."

Qin Chuan didn't speak, so Deputy Secretary Zhou Nan spoke up, "Mayor Liu, you are not right to say that. Secretary-General Sun Lanying is so busy that she doesn't even have time to report her work to Qin Chuan; as Director of the Municipal Party Committee Office, she is unqualified. Since that is the case, it is imperative to lighten her burden."

Damn it, that's not how you lighten someone's burden. This is equivalent to shaving her head clean; she has completely become a figurehead.

Qin Chuan said, "Deputy Secretary Zhou Nan is absolutely correct. In addition, I have one more situation to report. Secretary-General Sun Lanying has a distant cousin named Liu Laosan, who has long been involved in staging accidents and extorting tourists, with the amount involved in the cases exceeding two million..."

After briefly introducing the situation, Qin Chuan changed the subject, "Liu Laosan's extortion and staging of accidents are almost public knowledge on the tourist pedestrian street, but he has not been dealt with for a long time. According to Liu Laosan's confession, Secretary-General Sun Lanying used her position and influence to intervene with relevant departments on his behalf many times."

Once this situation was brought up, it was equivalent to catching her in a compromising position.

Those Standing Committee members who originally wanted to speak up for Secretary-General Sun Lanying quickly shut their mouths. Without being on the right side of the argument, forcibly defending her would only lead to embarrassment and humiliation.

The meeting ended in less than an hour. In the afternoon, the official division of labor for the leaders was announced and distributed in the form of a document.

Upon seeing Secretary-General Sun Lanying's work allocation, many officials looked at each other, feeling very surprised.

Some clever people seemed to sense something unusual, and for the first time ever, people began to take the initiative to come to Qin Chuan's office to report their work.

As for Secretary-General Sun Lanying, she went to Secretary Wu Qiaoxi's place immediately, instead of coming to Qin Chuan's.

Knowing that Secretary-General Sun Lanying had gone to Secretary Wu Qiaoxi's place again, Qin Chuan's gaze turned cold. It seemed that just adjusting Secretary-General Sun Lanying's position was not enough.

If she likes going to Secretary Wu Qiaoxi's place so much, she might as well not stay in the Municipal Party Committee. She could go directly to the Municipal Peoples Congress and become the Director of the Office there, so she could be with Secretary Wu Qiaoxi every day.

A little past four o'clock in the afternoon, for the first time since taking office, Qin Chuan went to the provincial capital and headed straight to the Provincial Party Committee Villa No. 1.

The Culture and Tourism Bureau of Dongjiang City also released an official document, and this document was placed in front of Secretary Wu Qiaoxi.

After reading this document, Secretary Wu Qiaoxi's expression was very serious; he wished he could dash to the Municipal Party Secretary's office right now and curse Qin Chuan until he was dazed.

This was really going too far. The tourism development policy and route of Dongjiang City were personally set by him, Secretary Wu Qiaoxi, during his tenure, including the ticket prices.

Qin Chuan had bypassed the Standing Committee discussion and directly instructed the Culture and Tourism Bureau to issue a series of documents; this was a complete negation of the series of policies that he, Secretary Wu Qiaoxi, had originally set.

But he knew that Qin Chuan seemed to have gone to the provincial capital, so he would wait for him to return tomorrow and see if he didn't curse him until he was dazed.

Also, knowing clearly that Secretary-General Sun Lanying was his person, he had publicly sidelined her, making her almost a figurehead, which resulted in Secretary-General Sun Lanying coming to complain just now in tears.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became!
