These "post-80 s" departmental cadres all have extraordinary "backgrounds"

In China, "post-80s" is a label, which used to be the age symbol of the new generation. Now, the earliest batch of "post-80s" is nearly 40 years old and has become the backbone of all walks of life.
In the ranks of party and government cadres, a group of young "post-80s" have gradually emerged, and these young cadres in China who grew up in the tide of reform and opening up have gradually taken up key positions and attracted attention.

On February 18th, Hainan Daily published the announcement of candidates for cadres in Hainan Province, and Liu Chong, born in February 1981, was proposed to be nominated as the candidate for deputy mayor of Danzhou Municipal People’s Government.

Expert: The key is to appoint people on merit.
The selection and appointment of young cadres is one of the topics of high social concern in recent years.
Wang Yukai, a professor at the National School of Administration, told the reporter of Zhongxin.com,Promoting a large number of outstanding young people will help optimize the age structure of some local leading cadres, improve the scientific allocation of cadres, and be conducive to the development of the country’s cause.
"When selecting cadres according to regulations, age should not be too much of a restriction. The key is to appoint people on their merits." Wang Yukai said,If the promotion of young cadres conforms to the procedural norms, it is a normal phenomenon to promote young people who are truly capable, talented, tested by practice and recognized by the people.
At the same time, in his view, the key to selecting cadres is to adhere to the principles and norms of cadre appointment and prevent the phenomenon of abusing power for personal gain and cronyism in the process of cadre appointment.
In recent years, the Central Committee has also made many arrangements for the selection and appointment of young cadres.
The report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out: "We should vigorously find young cadres in reserve, pay attention to training and training young cadres at the grassroots level and in difficult and arduous places, and continuously select and use outstanding young cadres who have passed the test of practice."
On June 29, 2018, the the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee meeting reviewed the Opinions on Vigorously Finding, Cultivating and Selecting Outstanding Young Cadres to Meet the Requirements of the New Era.
At that meeting, it was pointed out that with a longer-term vision and more effective measures, outstanding young cadres who meet the requirements of the new era should be discovered early, trained in time, continuously selected and used, and new vitality should be injected into the development of the cause of the party and the country.
The meeting also pointed out that the whole chain mechanism of selecting, cultivating, managing and using young cadres should be improved and coordinated, so as to form a vivid situation in which outstanding young cadres are constantly emerging and gather outstanding leaders from all fields into the ruling backbone team.
