As a result, Geng Yanbo, who has reached the age of 60 and served as mayor of Taiyuan for nearly 6 years, officially resigned.

On January 13, Taiyuan City held the 2018 Annual Target Responsibility Assessment Conference.Luo Qingyu, Member of the Standing Committee of the Shanxi Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, presided over the event.Geng Yanbo, deputy secretary of the Taiyuan Municipal Party Committee and mayor, made a work report and a personal report on behalf of the party and government leadership of Taiyuan City.At the same time, the meeting organized an assessment and evaluation.

Mayor of Datong for 5 years and Mayor of Taiyuan for 6 years. These two resumes are the two most important experiences of Mayor Geng Yanbo.Geng Yanbo was born in November 1958 and has been working in Shanxi Province for a long time.He started his career as an officer of the communication group of the Jinzhong Heshun County Committee. He worked in the Jinzhong area for many years and served as an office officer, deputy section chief, information section chief, and deputy director of the Jinzhong Prefectural Committee.Afterwards, Geng Yanbo successively served as the mayor of Lingshi County, member of the Standing Committee of the Jinzhong Municipal Party Committee, Secretary of the Yuci District Party Committee, Deputy Secretary-General of the Shanxi Provincial Government, Deputy Mayor of Taiyuan City, etc., and served as Mayor of Datong from 2008 to 2013.

Geng Yanbo was once widely known for an official video.On August 20, 2017, the official Weibo of Taiyuan Daily reposted this video with the following text:

[The current mayor of Taiyuan City, the real-life version of Li Dakang asked his subordinates to resign on the spot] Recently, a video of Geng Yanbo, the mayor of Datong at the time, was widely circulated on social media.In the video, Geng Yanbo's words are sharp and his actions are decisive. In order to implement the problem, he even lost his temper, causing heated discussions.This video clip is taken from a documentary broadcast in 2015, which records the hardships of Geng Yanbo, the mayor of Datong, Shanxi, in the restoration of the ancient city during his tenure.Our mayor is so handsome.

This edited video reposted by Taiyuan Daily’s official Weibo at the time was derived from the documentary Datong, which tells three short stories.

The first story is that the real version of Li Dakang asked his subordinates to resign on the spot.

The video shows that at a meeting, Geng Yanbo criticized a subordinate. House demolition and relocation are two big things, and neither of them can be done well.

This subordinate sat across from Geng Yanbo, and when he heard criticism that he couldn't do anything well, he spread his hands and said directly to Geng Yanbo, Mayor Geng, I don't have the ability to handle it right now.

Geng Yanbo got angry, slapped the table down, pointed to this subordinate and said, if you are going to resign in the past two days, you should quickly write the resignation report and replace it with someone who can do the job.You are cheating with me, your attitude is not good.After a pause for a few seconds, he continued, I am very unhappy now, I will get rid of you if I can. What Datong needs is someone who can work, not an official like you.

The second story is that Geng Yanbo urged the progress of the project on the construction site.

Can it be removed? In the video, at a construction site with its back against the city wall, Geng Yanbo asked a man in a black shirt, "If I can't take it off for seven days, I will accept it completely."It's a question of whether you can do it or not.I definitely don't have time to wait for you anymore. The road system must be cleared. The entire road system has been repaired for several years. I can't tolerate it anymore. There is no more time.

The man in the black shirt kept nodding, I know, I know.Geng Yanbo was not satisfied. He pointed in the direction of the demolition project and criticized the man in the black shirt. You are going to destroy Datong's career in your hands.

The third story is that Geng Yanbo inspected the project quality of a resettlement community for some demolished households.

In the video, Geng Yanbo stepped down a few times, and the ground in the community was filled with dust. Look at the dirt on you. This is a typical garbage project. Geng Yanbo became angry again, and even swore, pointing at a person in charge of the project who was wearing a striped T-shirt.The man in the T-shirt said, "Look at this guy, he looks quite honest on the surface, but he's full of tricks. You take back the money our government gave you, and you won't be allowed to work on this project anymore."

Afterwards, Geng Yanbo and his entourage removed the floor tiles outside the community, only to find that the floor tiles did not use cement.Do it again, do it again, the staff hurriedly said, but Geng Yanbo was angry again. You dare to fool me in front of me in public. How many things can you do behind my back?

Zhengshier (WeChat ID: xjbzse) noticed that when the name of the people was popular in April 2017, some commentators believed that Li Dakang had the shadow of Geng Yanbo. Both of them were unceremonious when criticizing their subordinates and their execution ability was outstanding..

Geng Yanbo served as mayor of Datong for five years and proposed the goal of revitalizing the historical and cultural city. Under his leadership, Datong invested tens of billions of yuan to vigorously promote the protection and restoration of the ancient city and a number of urban construction projects.The three short stories told in the above video happened during this period.

As a result, Geng Yanbo has attracted widespread attention from all walks of life and has become a high-profile controversial official. Some people think that he is the most responsible mayor in the history of Datong, while others think that he is the mayor who built the city, calling him a critic of Geng and a demolition of Geng.

Amid the controversy, on February 3, 2013, the front page of Datong Daily published an announcement on the cadre inspection of the Organization Department of the Shanxi Provincial Party Committee: After research, Comrade Geng Yanbo was determined to be the candidate for the municipal party committee secretary, and it is now announced.But three days later, Geng Yanbo left Datong and was transferred to be the deputy secretary of the Taiyuan Municipal Party Committee and later the mayor.

Geng Yanbo when he resigned as mayor of Datong

After the news of Geng Yanbo's departure from Datong came out, from February 12, 2013 (the third day of the Lunar New Year) to February 17 (the eighth day of the Lunar New Year), many Datong citizens flooded the streets to petition to keep Geng. Some even typedMayor Geng, come back and wait for the slogan.

After taking office as the mayor of Taiyuan, Geng Yanbo proposed the goal of renovating the old city of Taiyuan. More than half a year after he took office, the amount of demolition and relocation in Taiyuan was equivalent to the total amount of the past ten years.As a result, Geng Yanbo once again received a lot of doubts.

In September 2013, when Xinhua News Agency interviewed Geng Yanbo, he raised the above doubts: Many people call you the mayor of the city, and think that wherever you go, you will be demolished.What do you think for this?

Geng Yanbo responded at the time: It is a demonized concept to say that I built a city, and it was also said that I built a city as a political achievement project.From the transformation of the old city of Yuci to the present, I have been accompanying the controversy to this day.However, I would like to ask in turn, what is wrong with building a city?A city is the result of the development of human civilization. During the whole process of building a city, it is more a process of improving people's livelihood.

What should we build when building a city?I mainly build roads, rebuild shantytowns, build schools and build hospitals.Whether or not it can achieve "teaching for learning, income for old age, medical care for sickness, care for old age, and housing for living" is a sign of whether a city is qualified or not.It is also a process of building a city to achieve full coverage of garbage, sewage treatment, water, electricity, gas, and heat.Geng Yanbo said.

On March 26, 2017, at the first meeting of the 14th Taiyuan People's Congress, Geng Yanbo mentioned that I was the mayor of Taiyuan twice when he participated in the meeting of the whole group of Yingze District, and he was very ashamed.

He said at the time: Historically, Taiyuan’s culture is very splendid. Taiyuan was founded 2,500 years ago, from the division of the three families to the rise of troops by Tang and Li, from a model province in the Republic of China to a contemporary industrialized city.In every period, Taiyuan has attracted the world with its unique culture.

We have a glorious and glorious history. Today, we have not raised the culture of Taiyuan to a high level. I feel that as the mayor of Taiyuan, I am not qualified and I am very ashamed.

He said: Taiyuan, as the provincial capital city, does not have a decent pedestrian street, and its temperament has not been cultivated. Our cultural tourism has gradually been marginalized. The only scenic spot in Taiyuan that can be seen is Jinci Temple.As the mayor of Taiyuan Government, I am very ashamed.
