Is the captain of the resident team the same as the first secretary?

No, they are in different positions. Under normal circumstances, the first secretary is both the captain of the resident team and the secretary of the temporary party branch.

In order to develop village-level economy and help villagers get rid of poverty, some county and town leaders and government officials in some areas have taken the initiative to pair up with some villages to help them stay in some poor villages, which is what we call resident cadres. We also call such cadres resident cadres.

They stayed in the village, conducted research and analysis, collected villagers' difficulties, actively contacted higher authorities and helped them to give advice, which really played a positive role in the development of village-level economy. Generally speaking, there are party branches in the village, only the party branch secretary, and there is no first secretary. If the situation is special, the establishment of the first secretary means that there are other secretaries, but the "top leader" of the village party organization should be the first secretary.
