Volume 2: First Entering the Official Career

Chapter 25: Opening Ceremony

The first day of training is about reporting and assigning accommodation.

This initial training class adopts a military-style training model, and all trainees participating in the training must stay in accommodation. The accommodation conditions are not bad. It is in the training center of the School of Administration. To put it bluntly, it is a hotel open to internal business. Two people per room

There was a standard room, and Lu Yan's roommate was Bai Long, who was admitted to the Provincial Public Security Bureau.

Nothing happened for a day.

The next day is the opening ceremony of the training class. The course schedule has clearly stated that Xu Defang, member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Minister of Organization, will attend today's opening ceremony. Such specifications have been used in training classes for civil servants in provincial units in recent years.

This is unique in history. Before going to bed the night before, the temporary head teacher of the training class notified everyone in the dormitories.

At 8:30 in the morning, students from the first-time training class arrived at the college's auditorium early. Lu Yan and Lin Xiaoyun found seats to the side and sat down, waiting for the opening ceremony to begin.

At 8:55, Xu Defang walked into the auditorium accompanied by a group of people. A burst of warm applause immediately burst out in the huge auditorium. Zhang Yuan's position was in the middle of the first row under the rostrum. Xu Defang walked up

Lu Yan seemed to see Zhang Yuan when he was at the rostrum, and Lu Yan felt as if he nodded slightly towards the audience.

The dean of the School of Administration is concurrently served by the provincial governor, and the opening ceremony was presided over by Wu Xiangsheng, executive vice dean.

Wu Xiangsheng patted the microphone and coughed a few times: "Comrades! Everyone be quiet! Now I announce that the opening ceremony of this year's initial training class for civil servants in provincial-level units in Xizhou Province has officially begun!" Although the words were not long, Wu Xiangsheng's words were short.

However, the tone of the voice gradually increased, and when the words "officially begin" came, they were almost shouted.

There was warm applause in the auditorium, and Wu Xiangsheng pressed his hand down: "I am very happy today. The leaders of the Provincial Party Committee attach great importance to our initial civil servant training class. Minister Xu of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee personally attended it despite his busy schedule.

Come here and attend the opening ceremony of this training class, let us welcome Minister Xu with the warmest applause!"

There was another round of warm applause, and Xu Defang stood up with a smile. He raised his hands and pressed them softly, and the conference room immediately became silent.

"Comrades! First of all, congratulations to everyone who has passed the selection process and stood out and successfully entered the ranks of civil servants. It can be said that every comrade here today is an outstanding talent in our civil service team and a key player in building a beautiful and happy New West in the future.

I am honored to be able to participate in this opening ceremony today. Maybe in a few years, we will have provincial governors and ministers in this training class. But everyone must remember that a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Starting today,

You must take every step of your official career well."

Xu Defang's words aroused endless applause from below, and Lu Yan also clapped his hands vigorously. Xu Defang's speech deeply touched everyone's heart.

"I won't say much more to be polite. Today I want to give you three sentences."

The first sentence is that I hope that through this training, everyone will further unify their thinking, improve their understanding, firmly integrate their thoughts and actions into the provincial party committee’s decision-making and deployment and central work, strive to strengthen theoretical cultivation, and further improve their understanding of the party’s principles and policies.

Ability, continuously improve the ability and level of problem solving, especially solving difficult problems, and lay a solid foundation for future achievements in their respective positions.

The second sentence is that I hope that in the process of learning, everyone can think actively, draw inferences from one example and have the courage to explore and practice. They should strengthen their understanding of national conditions and provincial conditions, and grasp the country's major policies and provincial development strategies.

The third sentence is that I hope everyone will remember that the fundamental purpose of our party is to serve the people wholeheartedly. All the party’s struggles and work are to benefit the people. We must always realize, maintain and develop the fundamental purpose of the overwhelming majority of the people.

Interests should be the starting point and goal of all work, so that development is for the people, development relies on the people, and the results of development are shared by the people.

As soon as Xu Defang finished speaking, there was endless applause in the auditorium. Lu Yan's blood boiled with excitement after hearing what he just said, and the corners of his eyes became a little wet. Lin Xiaoyun looked at Lu Yan and joked about Minister Xu's agitation ability.

He is really too strong. If it were a war era, he would have been an outstanding political commissar.

After Xu Defang finished speaking and Wu Xiangsheng made a brief speech, the opening ceremony ended.

Under the guidance of the class teacher's slogan, Lu Yan and others stood up, watched Xu Defang and others leave the auditorium, and then led by the class teacher to the classroom.

The seats in the training class were casual. At Lin Xiaoyun's insistence, she chose the two seats near the back. Shortly after sitting down, the class teacher walked up to the podium and cleared her throat: "Students! Everyone, be quiet!"

After the classroom quieted down, he said: "Classmates! Hello everyone! I met you all yesterday, and today I will introduce myself first! My name is Long Rongguo, and I am your class teacher this semester. Please invite me.

Everyone, please introduce yourself!"

After a pause, Long Rongguo smiled when he saw that no one spoke: "Haha! It seems that everyone is still alive! Let's do this! I will call the roll, and whoever is called will stand up and introduce themselves?" After that, he picked up the roster.

Start calling names.

"Wen Dingguo!"

"Here we come!" A very strong boy stood up in response. "Hello everyone, I am Wen Dingguo, from the Provincial Sports Bureau."

Long Rongguo looked at Wen Dingguo, nodded and motioned for him to sit down, and then continued reading.

…

The roll call ended quickly. Through this roll call and self-introduction, three people quickly became the focus of the training class. The first one was Zhang Yuan. The Provincial Party Committee General Office is the most envied among all provincial departments.

Everyone in the unit knows that being admitted to this department means that as long as there are no major accidents, there will be no problem in reaching the level of director before retirement, and there is more than half a chance of reaching the level of deputy director or above.

The second focus figure is Han Chenfeng, who was admitted to the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, another powerful department. This is a department with promotion opportunities that are not inferior to those of the Provincial Party Committee General Office. Of course, it attracted everyone's attention. Han Chenfeng also focused on it when introducing himself.

He emphasized that he was once the chairman of the Peking University Graduate Student Union, which added a lot of points to him.

As for the third focus person, it is Lin Xiaoyun who is sitting next to Lu Yan. Although the Provincial Bureau of Statistics where she passed the exam is just a Qingshui Yamen, the competition for future prospects is a matter for boys. When Lin Xiaoyun introduced herself, her elegant and refined appearance and

The elegant and noble temperament attracted the attention of the whole class.

Compared with the radiance of these three people, Lu Yan was very dull when he introduced himself. Many people even just listened with their ears perked up without even looking at him.
