Chapter 121: Protecting Ou Yangming
After briefly exchanging opinions with Zou Wenming, Team Leader Xia began to call the cadres who signed the report letter one by one to come to the supervision and examination room of the county bureau to talk.
Last night, Ou Yangming had already gathered these cadres together to discuss the issue of dealing with the investigation team of the city bureau.
Those cadres are also convinced by Ye Ming now, and they have been regretting that they shouldn't have listened to Ou Yangming, and signed the complaint letter. Therefore, after hearing Ou Yangming say that he was sorry for Director Ye and must sincerely correct his mistakes, they all agreed with his views and unified their voices.
As a result, these cadres who were asked by Director Xia to talk to first took the initiative to admit the mistake of their false accusations, and then they praised Director Ye in unison for being generous, fair-minded, and outstanding, with high quality, clear work ideas, and a strong sense of innovation, and fully qualified for the position of the person in charge of any sub-bureau. I believe that under his leadership, the work of the First Sub-Bureau this year will definitely reach a new level......
The cadre in charge of making records in the Supervision and Examination Office of the Municipal Bureau, in the process of recording, showed a puzzled expression on his face from time to time: Is this investigating Ye Ming's violations of law and discipline, or collecting Ye Ming's excellent and advanced deeds? Why are these cadres who once jointly wrote to Ye Ming now rushing to praise Ye Ming and talk about Ye Ming's noble character and outstanding talent? If an investigation report is compiled according to the content of their conversations, this report should not be sent to the provincial bureau's supervision office, but should be directly submitted to the provincial bureau's office, and published in the provincial bureau's internal journal in the form of a long newsletter, with the title "Remembering Ye Ming, an outstanding tax bureau chief who is rooted in the grassroots and has both ability and political integrity......
Director Xia, who presided over the conversation, seemed very happy, and during the conversation, he whispered to the cadre who was responsible for recording from time to time: Xiao Li, remember in detail, don't miss a word, and report the content of today's conversation to the Provincial Bureau Supervision Office in an authentic manner......
When Director Xia organized the conversation, Zou Wenming, just in case, instructed the Finance Department to prepare three red envelopes, each of which was 2,000 yuan, and prepared to give them to Director Xia and the other three at lunchtime.
Under normal circumstances, a leader of a municipal bureau of the level of Director Xia does not give red envelopes as usual. Only when members of the party group of the municipal bureau or leaders at or above the deputy director level of the provincial bureau come down to inspect and guide the work, or come to inspect and evaluate the county bureau, they will stuff red envelopes. It's also a common practice.
The reason why Director Zou made an exception today to give a red envelope to Director Xia and others was also just in case: if one or two of these people didn't listen to the greeting, and then poked out some of the inside stories of the county bureau's promotion of Ye Ming during the conversation, Director Xia would definitely tell himself secretly after receiving the red envelope. At that point, measures can also be taken to remedy the situation......
The conversation continued until one o'clock at noon. Ou Yangming, who was the last to talk, said in detail in detail in a tone of regret that he organized the cadres of the sub-bureau to frame Ye Ming and write a letter of complaint to the provincial bureau. And said: After getting along with Director Ye in the past few days, he, like everyone, feels that Director Ye is open-minded, open-minded, strict with himself, lenient with others, advanced in concept, outstanding, courageous, knowledgeable, and helpful......
In short, he said almost all the words and idioms he could think of to praise a young leading cadre to the investigation team, and his tone was sincere and convincing......
After the investigation, when he was about to leave after eating, Director Xia, who was half drunk, took Zou Wenming's hand and said with his tongue rolled: "Old ...... Lao Zou, we are here today to investigate Ye Ming's disciplinary violations. Not...... Unexpectedly, an excellent talent was discovered. This Ye Ming, the party group of your county bureau must be cultivated well. In the future, we may all have to receive our retirement salary in his hands! Hahaha! ”
After Director Xia and the others left, Zou Wenming called Ye Ming to his office and told him that the party group of the county bureau was ready to remove Ou Yangming from his post as deputy director, and transfer him out of a sub-bureau, and put him in any department to do internal work, and not let him deal with taxpayers, so as not to cause him any problems in terms of clean government.
Ye Ming was taken aback when he heard Zou Wenming say that he wanted to remove Ou Yangming from his position, and hurriedly said: "Director Zou, I am just the deputy director of a sub-bureau, and I have no right and qualification to make irresponsible remarks about the decision of the party group. However, I think that the party group should still be cautious in dealing with Director Ou, and should give him a chance to reform himself, and not beat him to death with a stick. ”
Zou Wenming looked at him a little angrily and criticized: "Xiao Ye, I have communicated privately with several other party members on this matter, and reached an agreement, just wait for the party group meeting to be held in the afternoon to make a formal decision." You see: I'm doing this for your own good, as well as for his good. For you, it is to remove a stumbling block for you; For Ou Yangming, it was to prevent him from making mistakes in his post as deputy director of a sub-bureau, and in a sense, it was also a protective measure for him. I have always had a point of view: In a high-risk corruption unit like our tax system, being stricter and more demanding on cadres is actually protecting our cadres and preventing them from falling into the abyss of breaking the law and committing crimes. Strictness is love, leniency is harm, this sentence has a profound meaning! ”
Although Ye Ming knew that Zou Wenming's words were very reasonable, but because he had promised Ou Yangming before, that he would ensure that he was okay and would not be punished, he insisted: "Director Zou, you may not know: I have been with Director Ou yesterday afternoon, and he took the initiative to admit his mistake to me, and told me: From today onwards, he must resolutely quit gambling and other vices, change his mind and be a new person, and help me grasp the work of the first sub-bureau." As you know, Director Ou is very capable of doing business, and he has been the deputy director of the first sub-bureau for many years, so he is very familiar with the situation of the sub-bureau. I have just arrived at a sub-bureau, and my eyes are black-eyed, and I have no idea about the tax sources, the current situation of collection and management, management loopholes, and the relationship between tax collection and taxation. Therefore, I need a knowledgeable deputy like Director Ou to help me clarify my work ideas and open up the work situation. ”
Speaking of this, he saw that Zou Wenming's face was already showing signs of loosening, so he further explained: "There are two reasons why I do not approve of dealing with Director Ou: First, there are five cadres in the sub-bureau who signed the complaint letter. If the party group of the county bureau dealt with Director Ou, these five cadres would inevitably have suspicions in their hearts: After dealing with Ou Yangming, will they be dealt with next? In this way, it will invisibly make enemies for me and affect the unity of the sub-bureau; Second, as soon as I arrived at a sub-bureau, I drove out a deputy director, what would the rest of my colleagues in the city bureau think? They will definitely think that Ye Ming is a villain who can't tolerate people, a wicked person who will be revenged, and a mediocre person who is incapable of harmonizing with colleagues...... If I leave such a bad impression on my colleagues, then I will have a hard time in the county bureau in the future. ”
After listening to his words, Zou Wenming stared at him for two or three minutes, and finally said helplessly: "Xiao Ye, since you insist like this, then I will listen to you once." However, I have a word in advance: if you leave Ou Yangming in a bureau, it will most likely be a bomb in the future, and once it explodes, you and I may not be able to end it. ”
