Faced with the question of the old man Liu Zhengdao, Xu Haodong had to nod his head and agree with his point of view, "Your old man is right, to a certain extent, one loss is the loss of one glory and one glory, which well limits the corruption brought about by nepotism." ”

Liu Zhengdao smiled and said: "Take the two of us as an example, plus Yuru and Ash, it is a composition of nepotism, similar to a small circle." As far as the four of us are concerned, you are in power, you are the leader, and it depends on you whether you are good or bad. Although I am old and my power is gone, I can still influence you, Yuru and Ash are supporting characters, but they can also influence you. Our relationship has the meaning of both loss and glory, you are the person I recommend with all my might, if you are corrupt, my political image will be ruined, so I have to control you and try not to let you do bad things, Yuru and Ash will also restrain you. And the other way around? You'll also keep an eye on Yuru and Ash to prevent them from doing bad things. Tell me, is our nepotism positive? Isn't it also considered positive energy? ”

Xu Haodong smiled, "Old man, you are impressing me more and more." ”

"Besides, nepotism is everywhere, as long as it is a person in the system, everyone has nepotism, and there is nepotism in any department or unit. Take my bad old man as an example, I have been retired for nearly 30 years, and my old subordinates and even the subordinates of my old subordinates have also retired, but the children and nephews of my old subordinates are still there, and some of my subordinates are still there, and they often come to visit me, and I often pay attention to them, which is also nepotism and nepotism. Besides, Yuru, although she is a doctor, she is also a party member, and she also has an administrative establishment, deputy secretary of the party committee and vice president, she also has acquaintances, colleagues, classmates and friends, she also has a small circle, and she is also nepotistic there. It's little Ash, although this girl is only seventeen years old, but she also has acquaintances, colleagues, classmates and friends, and her social circle is bigger than you and me, which is also a nepotism. Besides, you Xu Haodong, you kid is lucky, your hometown is not in Yunling, after the closure of the May 18 Arsenal, the children's primary school and junior high school were also merged, most of the primary school classmates and junior high school classmates moved back to their hometowns, and your social circle is very small. However, you still have a lot of acquaintances, colleagues, classmates and friends, Vice Mayor Wu Junqi, is your high school classmate and college classmate, Wu Baoguo, deputy political commissar of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, is your old acquaintance, Li Qinjun, captain of the Special Police Brigade of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, is your Fa Xiao and classmate, Fang Changxi, the mayor of Pankou Town, is your Fa Xiao and classmate, Haodong, can you say that you have no nepotism? ”

Xu Haodong nodded and said, "Yes, nepotism is everywhere. ”

"At that time, the chairman once said that there are mountains in the party, and there are even more mountains in the army, and it is necessary to recognize the existence of mountains, and the purpose of acknowledging the existence of mountains is to eliminate mountains, engage in all corners of the world, and unite the mountains. Therefore, we must first admit the existence of nepotism, since it exists, there are always some reasonable elements, and it is of course best to eliminate nepotism, but since it cannot be eliminated, then try to regulate it and restrain it, and put nepotism and nepotism in the cage of the system. ”

Xu Haodong asked: "Old man, do you know that we have carried out a surprise operation on the use of financial appropriations and special funds?" And Qiao Zhengguo's investigation, as well as the corruption of the collapse of the city's agriculture, forestry and fishery system? ”

Liu Zhengdao nodded and said, "I know, but I don't know the details." ”

Xu Haodong briefly talked about the situation of the assault.

Liu Zhengdao sighed softly, "Alas, needless to say, there are a large number of civil servants who are going to fall again." But, Haodong, this has little to do with the nepotism we just mentioned, and it's our whole mechanism that has gone wrong. ”

"Old man, please go on."

After a moment of silence, Liu Zhengdao said: "Haodong, you once told me with regret that there are more than 3,000 rules and regulations, systems, disciplines and laws that are specifically in charge of civil servants, which can be described as a lot, but I just don't understand, why can't you still control civil servants?" Let me tell you, when I was the secretary of the county party committee, there were only 303 rules, systems, disciplines, and laws governing civil servants, which is less than one-tenth of what it is now. ”

Xu Haodong said: "There are rules that are not followed, there are systems that are not good, discipline is not enforced, law enforcement is not strict, rules and regulations have become decorations, and supervision and inspection have become a formality. ”

Liu Zhengdao asked: "Why is this situation?" ”

Xu Haodong said: "It is the willfulness of power that has caused the willful power, and the main reason is that there are problems with the leading cadres, especially this 'key minority'." ”

Liu Zhengdao said: "Therefore, from the central committee to the whole party, they are all thinking about this issue, and the most critical issue in the fight against corruption is to limit the power of the number one leader. For example, you Xu Haodong is the number one leader of the municipal party committee, and his actual power is above the other ten standing committee members, as long as you exercise all your powers, no one will be able to control you, and restricting the power of the top leaders will become an empty word. ”

"So what do you say you should do?"

Liu Zhengdao said: "To enhance the power and independence of the Discipline Inspection Commission, the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission will be promoted to the level of a department chief, and he will sit side by side with you, the number one leader, in terms of rank, and the Discipline Inspection Commission and the Supervision Commission to be established will only be under the leadership of the Discipline Inspection Commission at a higher level and will only be subject to the supervision and guidance of the municipal party committee at the same level. The members are to be transferred by the discipline inspection commission at a higher level, and the financial expenditures are allocated by the financial organ at the higher level, and they handle cases independently, and are only responsible to the municipal party committee and discipline inspection commission at the higher level, and only report to the municipal party committee and standing committee at the same level after the fact. With the authorization of the municipal party committee at a higher level and the discipline inspection commission at a higher level, the power of investigation can be exercised against the standing committee of the municipal party committee at the same level; on the other hand, the top leaders and their standing committee must resolutely exercise the right to supervise and guide the discipline inspection commission at the same level, so that the city party committee and the discipline inspection commission will form a situation of mutual supervision and mutual restraint. ”

After thinking for a while, Xu Haodong said: "Old man, you and I are heroes and have the same vision, I have long had similar thoughts, I want to write a report, do you dare to sign your old man's name on the report?" ”

"Haha......" Liu Zhengdao laughed and said: "Stinky boy, I'm almost eighty years old, what am I afraid of, it's decided, you write a report, I will be the first to sign, you kid can only be ranked second, in addition, I can also mobilize our old guys and sign your own name on your report." ”

It was worth the trip, and the insights and views of the old man Liu Zhengdao made Xu Haodong both deeply encouraged and inspired.

The next day, Xu Haodong came to work in the Municipal Administrative Center Building and got good and bad news.

The news was brought by Shen Teng, secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, "Secretary Haodong, our assault operation has achieved tremendous results, and as of this morning, 1,537 people have taken the initiative to come to the Commission for Discipline Inspection to explain their problems. But what you may not expect is that only 622 of them were the targets of our assault operation, and the remaining 915 people took the initiative to explain their own problems or the problems of other people and their units under the deterrence of anti-corruption pressure. ”

Xu Haodong smiled: "This is good news." ”

Shen Teng couldn't laugh, "I haven't finished talking yet, there are three big problems now, first, how to deal with these people who take the initiative to confess, second, how to deal with the problems of these people's units, and third, the reason why these people take the initiative to confess is that in addition to the impact of our assault action, there is also an external force. ”

Xu Haodong hurriedly asked: "What external force is promoting?" ”

"It is said that the cyber hacker named the Sword of Justice has clues and evidence of those people's violations of law and discipline, and the Sword of Justice sent them an email, ordering them to confess to the organization, otherwise the information about their violations of law and discipline will be made public, and those people are afraid, so they will take the initiative to confess."

The sword of justice has reappeared in the "rivers and lakes", which is also good news, Xu Haodong thought in his heart.

"Lao Shen, the three problems you mentioned don't seem to be problems."

Shen Teng asked rhetorically, "Why isn't it a problem?" Are these people's confessions considered active? ”

"Well, what do you think, Old Shen?"

Shen Teng pondered: "According to the policy, if you take the initiative to confess the problem, you can be dealt with leniently, if you also explain the problems of other people and the problems of your unit, in principle, you can not blame the past, and the party discipline and government discipline punishment can be cancelled, of course, the exception of violating the criminal law, but you can also be lenient." ”

Xu Haodong said: "Since there are regulations, let's do it." ”

Shen Teng shook his head, "It's not that simple, to implement leniency for these people, you and I need to take responsibility, we need the Municipal Standing Committee to take responsibility, and we need to seek the consent of our superiors." ”

"No, no, no." Xu Haodong also shook his head, "Old Shen, you don't need to ask your superiors for approval, and you don't have to take responsibility, and I don't plan to hold a meeting of the Municipal Standing Committee to discuss and study." ”

Shen Teng was taken aback, "Haodong, are you going to take on this responsibility alone?" This is not appropriate, and it is not good, in case someone among these lenient people has the same problem again, and the higher authorities will investigate it, you will be in big trouble. ”

"Old Shen, I've already thought about it." Xu Haodong said with a solemn face: "According to my judgment, the cadre team has been corrupted on a large scale, at least slightly on a large scale. Of course, we cannot tolerate corruption, but we still have to deal with some corrupt phenomena and corrupt people as appropriate, for example, those passive corruptions, we can only solve problems and not deal with people. Lao Shen, if you don't deal with it like this, the cadre team in Yunling City will be chaotic. ”

Shen Teng nodded and said, "I agree with your statement about passive corruption, and I agree with your proposition, but in this way, you will take a big risk personally." Haodong, you're gambling on your career. ”

Xu Haodong laughed instead, "Old Shen, playing politics and power, sometimes you need to take risks, as the old saying goes, wealth and wealth are sought in danger." ”

Shen Teng also laughed, "Okay, then I will also make up my mind, I will follow you." ”

"You're not afraid of dropping your black gauze hat?"

"Your secretary of the municipal party committee is not afraid, and I am not afraid."

"Okay." Xu Haodong smiled: "This is a big deal, you and I are too lonely, you go back and be busy, I'll go and pull a few old guys to help the two of us, and let them cushion the two of us if necessary." ”
