Mr. Song paid special attention to Bai Xiaosheng and Chen Changqing, even going so far as to have someone secretly observe them.
The information he gathered amused him.
After taking office, both Bai and Chen adopted similar high-pressure measures.
The only difference was that Bai Xiaosheng had driven the "oppressed" people off the stage, whereas Chen Changqing was still using them.
Moreover, Mr. Song specifically instructed his informant to pay attention to their methods of reward and punishment.
In the short term, to motivate personnel, rewards and punishments are always the most direct and effective means.
One fosters initiative, the other eradicates laziness.
How to apply them is a matter of knowledge.
It is a real test of one's ability and also reflects one's principles in dealing with matters.
Bai Xiaosheng focused on rewards, while Chen Changqing emphasized punishment; they were two extremes again.
