Chapter 421: Uproar

In Qingyuan City, the behavior of vehicles running red lights is too commonplace, and it does not constitute news at all for the "Qingyuan Metropolis Daily", but in order to cooperate with the propaganda needs of the municipal party committee to build a harmonious Qingyuan and break bad habits, a small corner has been opened up in the "city affairs" column every day, and phenomena such as "Chinese-style crossing the road" are disclosed and exposed.

After receiving the call, the "City Affairs" column sent an intern reporter.

The young intern reporter attached great importance to this opportunity, after he arrived at the scene, he did not find the informant but found the witnesses in the shops on both sides of the street, and also found the traffic police on duty at the two intersections, confirming the authenticity of the report, but due to the fast speed, the license plate number of the Audi car could not be seen clearly, the Buick car had a stop in the middle of the street, the witness remembered the license plate number, and after the intern reporter interviewed the witnesses, he wrote a small report of about 400 words, which was posted in the "City Affairs" column of the newspaper the next day.

This seemingly inconspicuous little news did not attract much attention from the public, but then caused an uproar on the "Qingyuan Hotline".

Shortly after going to work the next day, Guo Hongze, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, called Lin Dengshan, Zhu Minwen's secretary, and confirmed that Zhu Minwen had a few minutes to spare, so he knocked on the door of the secretary's office with a copy of "Qingyuan Metropolis Daily".

Yesterday afternoon, after learning that the province had relaxed the educational and age requirements for mayoral candidates, Guo Hongze, who was not yet 53 years old during the Chinese New Year, rekindled his hope.

There are many examples of the deputy secretary being reappointed as the head of the administration.

Since the province has relaxed the conditions, it means that the position of mayor is not reserved for Yi Haitao, and he is willing to give the older comrades a chance to progress.

In the face of opportunities, no one doesn't want to work hard.

Judging from Guo Hongze's growth trajectory in the southeast officialdom, the software and hardware conditions are obviously inferior to Yi Haitao and Tang Yifu, but he and Zhu Minwen are decades of old friends, and the two have worked together for a long time since their township-level positions.

When Zhu Minwen became the mayor and Guo Hongze became the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, the two knew each other well and cooperated tacitly, especially after Zhu Minwen became the mayor five or six years ago, he had a very unhappy quarrel with the secretary of the municipal party committee at that time.

Guo Hongze is a person, his ability is limited, and his mental skills are not very correct, but he is a cadre born and raised in Qingyuan, and he has a close relationship with Zhu Minwen, and his network foundation is quite strong.

In the past few years, Guo Hongze has been bent on solving the main hall, which is also a well-known thing in the officialdom of Qingyuan City.

Due to Guo Hongze's age, Zhu Minwen considered arranging for him to be the chairman of the CPPCC next year, but after getting the province's relaxed conditions, Guo Hongze was not very satisfied with going to the CPPCC to solve the problem at the department level, and began to play the idea of the mayor.

Guo Hongze entered Zhu Minwen's office, Lin Dengshan came over to make tea, and quietly retreated.

Zhu Minwen saw the Metropolis Daily in Guo Hongze's hand at a glance and asked, "Old Guo, what major news have you discovered?" ”

Guo Hongze said with a smile: "Hehe, your Secretary Zhu is not at home, where is there any major news in Qingyuan City?" ”

"Lao Guo, you have also learned to slap horses." Zhu Minwen also smiled: "Say, what's the matter?" ”

Guo Hongze spread out the newspaper on Zhu Minwen's large desk, pointed to a tofu block in the "City Affairs" column and said, "Look at this." ”

"The quality of citizens needs to be improved." Zhu Minwen thought that there had been some major accident, but after a glance, he found that it was just a small report of two cars running a red light, he immediately collapsed, lowered his eyelids and said: "Lao Guo, you are a full-time deputy secretary, and the construction of spiritual civilization must be grasped, but you can't grasp it with your beard and eyebrows." ”

Guo Hongze clicked the words "Audi car" on the newspaper with his finger and whispered: "Secretary Zhu, I heard that the Audi that ran the red light is Comrade Haitao's special car. ”

Zhu Minwen raised his head, looked at Guo Hongze, and did not speak.

Guo Hongze was stared at a little hairy, and explained with a smile: "I mean, the propaganda mouth is not strictly controlled, and this kind of trivial matter involving city leaders should not be so exciting." ”

Zhu Minwen said: "Lao Guo, your understanding is right, Comrade Haitao is also for work. If you ask the comrades of the propaganda department to say hello, this matter will end here, and we must prevent the media from taking the opportunity to hype up the situation, and do not make the government and Comrade Haitao too passive. ”

Guo Hongze didn't say anything, picked up the newspaper and went out.

Early on Monday morning, the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee annoyed the secretary of the municipal party committee with this kind of trivial matter of running a red light, either making a big fuss or having ulterior motives.

Zhu Minwen has long seen through Guo Hongze's intentions: he just wants to use this incident to probe his own tone and see what kind of attitude he has towards wanting to compete for the post of mayor.

Guo Hongze wants to solve the department level before retirement, Zhu Minwen has already considered it, and today he took the report of Yi Haitao's special car running a red light, and his intention was obviously to bring down Yi Haitao, and he would replace him as mayor. Zhu Minwen was dissatisfied with Guo Hongze's approach, and clearly sent a signal that he did not support his victory in Longwangshu.

If you want to be comfortable, it is also a good choice to team up with Guo Hongze.

However, Zhu Minwen still has his own pursuits in his career, and if he really wants to make some decent political achievements, he has to rely on Yi Haitao, who has ideas and drive.

At present, the reason why he can't clearly stand up and support Yi Haitao is still afraid of Tang Yifu's energy in the province, from only giving Yi Haitao the title of summoning government work, to relaxing the restrictions on education and age, Tang Yifu's huge ability to move is shown everywhere, and publicly offending him at this time may not be conducive to his entry into the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee.

In other words, if he can use Tang Yifu's strength to ensure that he is in the norm, Zhu Minwen is also willing to support Tang Yifu to become mayor, as for whether he can suppress Tang Yifu in his work in the future, he will not think about it so much for the time being.

Guo Hongze took the newspaper and came out of Zhu Minwen's office, feeling very uncomfortable, he thought that with his old relationship for many years, for the sake of the previous iron-hearted support, Zhu Minwen would at least symbolically vague a few words, but he didn't expect to give him a closed door without letting him speak.

Zhu Minwen's move to defend Yi Haitao aroused Guo Hongze's dissatisfaction with Yi Haitao, and he angrily called Shu Yifan, executive deputy director of the Propaganda Department, to the office, threw the newspaper in front of her, severely criticized her media for not understanding propaganda discipline and tarnishing the image of city leaders, and demanded that she take immediate measures to eliminate the bad influence.

Shu Yifan is a well-mannered female cadre, who was reprimanded by Guo Hongze and made it inexplicable, and he didn't figure out what was going on for a long time, so he had to take the newspaper to verify it in many ways, and it took a big turn to understand that it was "Qingyuan Metropolis Daily" that reported that Yi Haitao's special car ran a red light. As a result, a trivial matter that was originally unknown to everyone inadvertently aroused speculation and discussion among many government personnel.

In an office, organs A, B, and C are put together.

Organ A said: "Yesterday Vice Mayor Tang personally opened the door for him, and today Deputy Secretary Guo was furious for him, and it seems that Mayor Yidang has become a foregone conclusion." ”

Organ B said: "Not necessarily, I heard that the province doesn't seem to be very optimistic about him, otherwise, why is it still called a convocation and not a host?" ”

"Yes, I've also heard that the province has relaxed the educational and age restrictions for mayoral candidates. ”

Trap A suddenly realized: "Oh, I see! ”

Organ B was puzzled: "Dude, what do you mean?" ”

"Can't you see that?" Organ A smiled and said, "I'm afraid the world won't be chaotic." ”

Organ C shushed and said, "Someone is coming." ”

Organs A, B, and C hurriedly sat back at their desks with their teacups in their arms.

After finding out the reason, Shu Yifan personally went to "Qingyuan Metropolis Daily", criticized the party secretary and editor-in-chief of the newspaper, and then issued a gag order.

The secretary of the party committee and the editor-in-chief reprimanded the editorial director of the column again, and the editorial director scolded the person in charge of the column, and the person in charge of the column was wronged and directly fired the young intern reporter.

At most, the captain of the team will come forward to go to the traffic police detachment to explain the reason, and the violation record will disappear.

In many cases, the police who deal with violations are proficient in business, can recognize the license plate number of the city leader's car from the video, and will take the initiative to report to the leader of the traffic police detachment, and the leader of the traffic police detachment says hello to the secretary of the city leader, and there is no need to say anything, and the matter is dealt with.

This time it was good, a small matter that could have been handled quietly, after such a big toss, it suddenly caused an uproar in society.

At about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, a post appeared on the forum of the "Qingyuan Hotline", a new ID that had just been registered, and released a set of pictures as a witness, which was a photo of an Audi car and a Buick car grabbing a red light side by side, and the license plate numbers of the two cars were vaguely recognizable.

Just in time for the little intern reporter who was fired to tell his classmates and friends about his grievances on the Internet, one of his classmates interned in the "Qingyuan Hotline", listened to his tragic experience, saw the post on the forum, immediately understood what was going on, and immediately held grievances for his classmates, and forwarded it on Weibo, space, and forum, and the ID of the post added fuel to the fire, and issued an appeal for the owner of the Audi car, and soon someone broke out that the Audi car was the special car of the executive deputy mayor, which suddenly caused a strong response on the Internet.

In such a fuss, Huang Rushan hid in the office and had fun, only Yi Haitao and Chu Tianshu, who had been busy all day, didn't know at all.
