Chapter 64: The Winding Path Leads to the Secluded 1

When Qi Tianxiang appeared in the conference room of the Huayi Municipal Party Committee, the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee was in full swing. [Ran^Text^Library] []

When Qi Tianxiang, accompanied by Sun Fangbing, secretary of the Huayi Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, pushed the door into the conference room, there was a commotion in the conference room for a while, especially Huang Changjiang, secretary of the municipal party committee, looked at Li Fangbing with a stunned expression, he didn't understand how Sun Fangbing, who was specially absent from today's Standing Committee, could be with Qi Tianxiang, secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, and how could Qi Tianxiang suddenly appear in Huayi City, and what would his arrival have to do with something, or someone?

A series of questions filled Huang Changjiang's mind, and he couldn't figure out a clue, but after all, he had invaded the officialdom for many years, and his astuteness and flexibility quickly drove away his doubts, and he hurriedly stood up, stretched out his hand to hold Qi Tianxiang's hand with a smile, and shook it again and again: "What kind of wind blew your Secretary Qi to our old and young poor land, why don't you say hello in advance, let's make some preparations!" Isn't this a slow secretary? ”

"The matter is urgent, so I have to come uninvited, disturbing your meeting, and I hope I will forgive you for the offense." Qi Tianxiang smiled and said polite words, he came suddenly, and he was not very familiar with Huang Changjiang, so he had to greet and socialize.

"Secretary Qi is polite, please take a seat!" Huang Changjiangqian pointed to the top of his oval conference table and said enthusiastically: "If you have any instructions, sit down and speak, and we will listen to you." ”

"After a few words, you will leave, and it will not affect your meeting." Qi Tianxiang looked at the nervous expressions and inexplicable expressions of several people in the conference room, ignored Huang Changjiang's seemingly enthusiastic but actually dissatisfied words, and said solemnly: "Take advantage of the occasion of your Standing Committee to announce a decision of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. ”

Qi Tianxiang glanced at the members of the Standing Committee in the conference room, and specially observed the expression of Mayor Li Donghe, as well as the deputy director of the National People's Congress, Fei, in addition to doubts and puzzlement, he didn't seem to have a special reaction, so he raised his voice and announced solemnly: "In view of Li Donghe's serious violations of discipline and law, corruption and depravity in life, and other serious economic problems, the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection reported to the Provincial Party Committee for approval to take shuanggui measures against the two of them." At the same time, Han Yisheng, vice chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and general manager of Huayi Iron and Steel Group, carried out double regulations. ”

Qi Tianxiang's words were undoubtedly like a bombshell, which immediately exploded in the small conference room, shocking everyone, no one thought that Qi Tianxiang would announce such a decision at this time and place. The most surprising thing is Li Donghe and ** Fei, a few minutes ago he was still a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, the leader of the millions of people in Huayi City, and he became a prisoner in an instant, the turning point was only in the appearance of Qi Tianxiang, only in a blink of an eye, the glory of life for decades came to an end, and the rest was to regret the past, and remember the beautiful days to come.

But Li Donghe and ** Fei's consternation was only for a moment, and they quickly returned to normal, because in the minds of the two of them, even if they had not experienced it, they had heard of such a thing, and they knew very well in their hearts that since Qi Tianxiang was able to announce the organizational decision, it meant that the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection had enough evidence to discredit them, otherwise there would not have been such an action. At the same time, it is also very clear that the things I have done, such a result is also a deserved price, it is only a matter of time, and the only thing I feel regretful about is that the eyes of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection are fixed on them, not others, so I can only accept the reality and accept the bitter result.

Huang Changjiang was angry, Qi Tianxiang's decision came too suddenly, not only was he not mentally prepared, but he also did not report and communicate in advance, he didn't even make the necessary greetings, and he didn't have any news, which was not only disrespectful to himself, but also directly challenged the authority of the secretary of the municipal party committee, and actually announced it at the standing committee of the municipal party committee he presided over, embarrassing himself, and not putting himself in his eyes at all. Such embarrassment is directly manifested on the face, so the face is ugly, and the words are unceremoniously angry.

"The decision announced by Secretary Qi on behalf of the Provincial Party Committee, I and the Huayi Municipal Party Committee resolutely support and implement it, and we have no objection to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection's heavy-handed anti-corruption work, but I am very grateful to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection for coming forward to eliminate the corrupt elements within our Huayi Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government and purify our cadre ranks." Huang Changjiang said the official words on the scene word by word with a straight face, and then changed his words and said insinuatingly: "Please ask the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Secretary Qi, I believe that our Huayi Municipal Party Committee is an officer, and I, Huang Changjiang, am clean and innocent, a first-level organization that can be trusted and relied on, and a comrade who can be trusted. ”

Qi Tianxiang glanced at Huang Changjiang deeply, as if hinting at his calmness. He knew very well his resistance at the moment, as well as his irrepressible anger, but in front of all the Standing Committee members, as well as Li Donghe and ** Fei, who were shuanggui, Qi Tianxiang was unwilling to have a head-on conflict with him, let alone complicate the situation due to the conflict.

So he turned his gaze away and gave Sun Fangbing, secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, a look, Sun Fangbing understood, quickly went out, and brought in a few people after a while, who were the case-handling personnel of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, as well as the cadres and policemen of the Provincial Public Security Department, who walked in front of Li Donghe and ** Fei respectively, took out the shuanggui decision, asked the two of them to sign and approve, and then took the two out of the conference room.

Everything was carried out according to the rules, step by step, everything was carried out quietly and silently, except for the sound of the paper shaking, the conference room was so quiet that it seemed that a pin could be heard, and everyone held their breath and watched intently at all these unbelievable things happening in front of them.

Only when the figure of the case-handling personnel disappeared outside the closed conference room door did Qi Tianxiang retract his gaze, glanced at the remaining members of the Standing Committee in the conference room, looked directly at Huang Changjiang, and said slowly: "Now is not the time to argue about ways and means, nor is it the time to defend whose face and authority, but how to do the work well and do it in place." You can blame me for not giving a prior notice or even saying hello, but all I can say is that all the starting points are for work and not for anyone. ”

Seeing Huang Changjiang's eager expression, Qi Tianxiang stretched out his hand to signal him not to interrupt his words, and then continued: "After the Standing Committee, I will inform you of the specific situation in detail, do you think it's okay?" ”

As he spoke, Qi Tianxiang didn't wait for Huang Changjiang to react, he turned around and walked out of the conference room, leaving behind the frightened Standing Committee members and Huang Changjiang with an embarrassed expression.

As Sun Fangbing walked into his office, Qi Tianxiang slowly sat on the sofa by the window, watching him pour tea with great interest, and the figure who was busy walking back and forth, without speaking, until Sun Fangbing put the teacup on the coffee table in front of him, and then asked thoughtfully: "Do you also have thoughts in your heart about the sudden notification that you will cancel your participation in the Standing Committee!" ”

"No, not really." Sun Fangbing's square face was full of seriousness, looking at Qi Tianxiang's eyes sincere and frank, afraid that Qi Tianxiang would not believe it, so he immediately added: "I just feel a little sudden, there are really no other ideas." ”

"But Lao Huang has a lot of ideas! And there is a lot of resistance. Qi Tianxiang took the cigarette light handed over by Sun Fangbing, took a deep breath, and continued: "It's not that I don't trust, but I don't worry, Huayi's water is too deep, and if you are not careful, you may have extraneous skills, I hope you can understand this, and I hope Lao Huang can understand." ”

"Parents are used to everything, accustomed to everything, every sentence is the absolute power of truth, once what happens on their own one-third of an acre, is not recognized by their own subjective will, it may be psychologically unbalanced, this is also a very normal performance, otherwise it is not his style, and it is also strange." Sun Fangbing said lightly, it seemed that it was not so difficult to explain the origin of the matter, and his eyes when he looked at Qi Tianxiang were also faintly worried, and then said: "Fortunately, I didn't know in advance, and I didn't participate in the planning of the matter, otherwise it would be enough for me to explain for a while if I didn't report it, and I didn't ventilate, maybe it was okay to explain, but I was afraid that there would be no chance to explain." ”

Qi Tianxiang glanced at Sun Fangbing deeply, and said with deep feelings: "It is said that entrepreneurship requires smart wisdom and the courage to be the first, but there is no suitable development environment, all of this is just the moon in the water, the flower in the mirror, it looks beautiful, but it is just a beautiful perception." As he spoke, Qi Tianxiang accentuated his tone and said slowly: "I'll explain to you in a while, not only to explain the ins and outs of the matter clearly, but also to explain the reasons why you didn't join the Standing Committee. You still have to do work in the future, and you still have to move forward, and you must not let the handling of cases worsen your work and living environment. ”

"I don't care, really. As a cadre trained in the melting pot of the army, he has engaged in a variety of work over the past several decades, and he does not dare to say that he is loyal, and he can still boast of his loyalty; in the past few years of working in the discipline inspection commission, if he can do something seriously, he will not be in vain in the title of discipline inspection cadre. Sun Fangbing confessed sincerely, couldn't help but get excited, then sighed, and said slowly: "Whether it is the National People's Congress or the CPPCC, there is still my place, Secretary Qi should not worry about me, just implore the secretary, if you can still trust my old Sun, I don't have the ability to go to heaven and earth, but to do some auxiliary work, I am confident that I can still do my best." ”

Sun Fangbing's words, as well as his excited expression, deeply moved Qi Tianxiang, couldn't help but get up, patted the back of his hand gently, and said sincerely: "Lao Sun is a little too humble, trust is needless to say, if we don't even trust our own comrades, then who else can we trust, who will do the discipline inspection and supervision work?" Again, the water in Huayi City is too deep and the situation is too complicated, so I can't be cautious. ”

Qi Tianxiang looked at Sun Fangbing, his eyes were full of enthusiasm and trust, but there was no trace of guilt. As for the lack of prior notification or even the disclosure of information, Qi Tianxiang still insists on his own view, that is, the cadres of Huayi City must not be allowed to participate in the investigation, and the investigation must not be carried out openly. The reason is very simple, one is to avoid interference, and the other is to protect the cadres of Huayi City.

It can be said that when he was in the research office of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, Qi Tianxiang began to pay attention to the retreat of Huayi City and the restructuring of state-owned enterprises. A large number of state-owned enterprises under the management of the province or the city have gone bankrupt or closed down after restructuring, a large number of state-owned assets have been sold at a low price or legally lost, and a large number of state-owned land has also entered the market under various names, becoming a cake that real estate developers are competing to chase. Such a problem is not unique to Huayi City, and there are more or less such problems in all cities in the province, but as a poor area for the old and the young, and a revolutionary base area with a glorious tradition, in order to change the appearance of poverty and backwardness as soon as possible, as well as the weak industrial base, the state and the province have invested a lot of money for many years to establish a complete industrial economic system, covering almost all fields. However, in just a few years, almost all of the dozens of industrial enterprises above designated size, with the exception of a few relatively large ones, have completed the restructuring of the private sector and the private sector, a large number of state-owned enterprises have disappeared, and great changes have taken place in the economic structure.

The problem of economic structure has never been a uniform thing, this aspect of the problem and crux, Qi Tianxiang in many years of observation and thinking, very clear, but also very clearly recognize the existence and complementarity of a variety of economic components, after all, private enterprises or private enterprises, have the advantages of flexible mechanism and high efficiency, but there are also short-term and uncertain drawbacks of their own, especially in the employment system, which is mostly short-term behavior, which is very clear from the nature of the enterprise and the development of ideas. Enterprises are private, enterprises are also profit-seeking, only the obligation to pay taxes for operation, there are no more social obligations and responsibilities, relying on business owners to consciously assume social responsibility, is undoubtedly wishful thinking. In the face of a huge population and labor base, as well as huge administrative expenses, the government needs not economic development data, but also real employment rate and people's livelihood issues, which only the state invests and only state-owned enterprises can well assume these responsibilities. After all, society is not about how many private enterprises it has, but about the growth of people's income and social stability, which is a major issue that must be considered in a normal society.

Qi Tianxiang does not know, nor can he predict, what makes Qi Tianxiang concerned about the preservation and appreciation of state-owned assets in the process of restructuring, as well as the loss of state-owned assets and power intervention, as well as the replacement of interests and the filling of private pockets, which is the essence of the problem. However, due to the position of the research laboratory and his own ability, Qi Tianxiang did not have the ability to carry out more work, but only silently observed and investigated. After taking up the post of secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, it was difficult for him to concentrate on the work he had to do, especially the complicated entanglement of relations in Huayi City, which made him not dare to rashly carry out any action, but quietly set up an investigation team with the research office as the main body to carry out the investigation in secret.

Although Qi Tianxiang also knew that such an approach was not very suitable and violated the principles of the organization, there was no better way. I can only choose the research room Xiao Li and other three people to form an investigation team, one is not very eye-catching, the other is not much substantive work, relatively detached, more important is Xiao Li and others, after several years of understanding and observation, more reliable and simple, especially with Huayi City does not have too much intersection, this is the most important factor.

After more than a year, especially the recent meticulous work, Xiao Li's investigation has basically come to an end, and a complete chain of evidence has been formed, not only involving the senior leaders of Huayi City, but also mastering the corruption of a large number of leading cadres of counties, cities and bureaus. Corruption and bribery, buying and selling officials, power, not only the corruption-prone land, transportation, urban construction, state-owned assets, but also family planning, medical care, education and other departments are not spared, it can be said that it is the whole, the shocking case, so that Zheng Ming also felt the seriousness of the matter, and immediately instructed Qi Tianxiang to report to the provincial party committee as a major case, and at the same time take full action with a zero-tolerance attitude.

Although the preparation was very sufficient, when it came time to really close the net, Qi Tianxiang still took a lot of effort, not only to keep it secret, but also to be foolproof, the intricate relationship within the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection could not be completely relied on, so he still asked Yan Yong for assistance, transferred capable personnel from him, and quietly entered Huayi City.

Before the morning operation, Qi Tianxiang called Sun Fangbing and asked him to rush to the Huayi City Armed Police Guest House immediately, and after briefly reporting the case and specific arrangements, he rushed to the municipal party committee building non-stop and took shuanggui measures against Li Donghe and ** Fei, while another group of personnel took measures against Han Yisheng.

The time connection is very good, the personnel and actions are in place, just waiting for the next step to carry out a more detailed dragnet operation, although there is no expectation, but it is worth looking forward to. Therefore, Qi Tianxiang's mood is excited, and he has mobilized all his energy, although the large-scale anti-corruption is not what he wants to see, but when it comes to the critical moment, the scholarly spirit is still all left behind.

"The only thing to do now is to wait patiently, and wait for a while to communicate and exchange with Comrade Changjiang, which is the work task and pressure of your Commission for Discipline Inspection!" Qi Tianxiang held back his thoughts, looked at Sun Fangbing, and said gently: "To organize a capable team to participate in the trial of cases, not only must you be politically reliable and proficient in business, but you must also be clean and clean. ”

"Secretary Qi, please rest assured, dozens of cadres of the Huayi Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection are as clear as water and as bright as a mirror, I dare not say, there is no problem in selecting more than a dozen comrades who have both ability and political integrity, integrity and reliability." Sun Fangbing looked at Qi Tianxiang for a long time, knowing that he was thinking, he didn't dare to disturb, and now that Qi Tianxiang spoke, he expressed his attitude heartily, and at the same time suppressed an emotion in his heart, which seemed to be seen from Qi Tianxiang's eyes, which not only included trust, but also was not at ease.

"I believe that daring to play with fire at such a critical time is either a problem with IQ, or a real audacity to act recklessly and die by yourself." Qi Tianxiang looked at Sun Fangbing steadily, and seemed to sense the depression and dissatisfaction in his heart, but he didn't want to explain too much, so he just said lightly: "If the personnel are not enough, the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection can transfer personnel, or temporarily mobilize personnel from relevant prefectures and cities to assist." ”

"No, we don't need it for the time being, if necessary, we will ask Secretary Qi for help." Sun Fangbing seemed to be asking Qi Tianxiang's opinion, but his tone was clearly refusal.
