After a short period of stunned, Governor Qin Ge immediately came to his senses, fiddling with a pencil that was ready to be used for recording, and said a little dissatisfied: "Secretary Lu, today's Standing Committee, I feel a little abrupt!" You didn't talk to us before the meeting, and you didn't tell us what the topic was. [No pop-up window] Now we are rashly discussing such a criminal case as Xinleng, we are completely unprepared, how do you want us to speak? How to discuss? If we don't know what happened, what results can we talk about?

Moreover, according to the scope of deliberations stipulated in the Rules of Procedure of the Standing Committee of the Tianjiang Provincial Party Committee, cases such as the 5.16 homicide case in Xinleng County should not be brought to the Standing Committee for discussion. The Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee is not a political and legal organ, nor is it a case-handling department, so if a criminal case is brought to a meeting of the Standing Committee for discussion and study, is it suspected of making a big fuss and interfering in the administration of justice? Therefore, I think that today's meeting is a bit abrupt and a bit out of line with the rules of procedure of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee. Of course, Secretary Lu, you are the squad leader and secretary, and you have the right to decide to call a meeting on a certain matter. I'm just stating my opinions and doubts, and nothing else! ”

Secretary Lu sat upright in the chairman's position, listened intently to Qin Ge's speech, and then said in a very gentle tone: "Comrades, I know that if I convene this meeting today, there will definitely be comrades who have doubts, and there will definitely be comrades who will say that I am making a big fuss, and even that I have used the power of the secretary of the provincial party committee to convene such a meeting. So, here I have to explain it first, so that you can understand the purpose of my convening of this meeting.

"As Comrade Qin Ge said, the meeting of the Standing Committee of our Provincial Party Committee is bound by the rules of procedure, and it cannot be held by anyone who wants to, and can discuss whatever it wants, and I, the secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, cannot be an exception.

"But why did I suddenly convene everyone today to discuss this criminal case that occurred on May 16 in Xinleng County? There are several reasons here: First, the Xinleng 5.16 homicide case has reached the point of boiling and is known to the whole country. All kinds of so-called inside information and so-called case developments have sprung up all over the Internet and the media. What's more, in Xinleng County, there is actually a private entrepreneur who jumped out and released so-called inside information on this case as a ** representative, misleading the media and public opinion, and bringing an extremely adverse impact on the image of our Tianjiang Province. I can't help but ask: what does this so-called ** representative want to do? On behalf of the political and legal organs and the case-handling units, how can he publish those false information that is afraid that the world will not be chaotic? Who gave him that power? Who is supporting him? In my opinion, if this issue is not clarified, the current chaos of public opinion will continue to develop, and it will cause even greater damage to the image of our Tianjiang Province.

"Second, at the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee on the 3rd of last month, we discussed the issue of launching a province-wide special operation to eliminate organized crime and evil forces and thoroughly eradicate the underworld and evil forces that affect the economic and social development of our province and the people's living and working in peace and contentment, and we also made a resolution. And the Xinleng 5.16 case is a typical case of underworld gang fighting. Our discussion of this case at the Standing Committee today can have the effect of 'dissecting sparrows and grasping typical examples': by analyzing the background, causes, harms, and other factors of this case, we can provide reference and experience for the next step in formally deploying and carrying out the anti-gang and anti-evil operation. Therefore, today's Standing Committee can be said to be a continuation of last month's meeting, and it is not a whim or an impromptu idea on my part—I had this idea when this case first happened. Originally, I wanted to hold this meeting later, but now it seems that the development and impact of this case have far exceeded my expectations, and it is better to hold this meeting earlier than later.

"Third, and most importantly, since the 5.** case, many things have been unbelievably strange, so that I, the secretary of the provincial party committee, have to stand up and say a few words. First of all, this case is still in the investigation stage, and the details of many cases and some of the suspects involved in the case should be kept absolutely confidential. However, the current situation is that the main suspect in this case has not been caught, and the cause of the case has not been clarified, and some so-called inside information has appeared on the Internet and the media all over the world. Moreover, all the media have noted that these messages are authoritative news released by the 5.16 task force. I can't help but ask: Does this so-called task force still have any sense of discipline and secrecy? When they go to Xinleng, are they going to investigate the case, or are they going to act as news publishers? What is the purpose of doing this?

"Secondly, now the Internet is full of a lot of irresponsible rumors, saying that the main suspect in the 5.** case, Ye Mou, not only participated in the underworld organization in Xinleng, but also used his background and relationship in the provincial party committee to shield and protect Gong Zhichao, the leader of the underworld in Xinleng, many times, and caused him to escape legal punishment many times. And these rumors seem to have been released with the tacit consent of the 5.16 task force. Why do I say that? Because after these rumors appeared, the people of the task force did not come out in time to refute the rumors. This shows that they also support such a statement, and there is even a possibility that this rumor was created by this task force!

What is even more outrageous is that these rumors on the Internet and in the media are all aimed at Comrade Runji of the Provincial Party Committee. The backstage and backer of Ye they call is Comrade Runji. I also know very well the reason for this: because when Comrade Runji was murdered last year, it was this little comrade surnamed Ye from Xinleng County who saved Comrade Runji's life. And Comrade Runji is a person who attaches great importance to affection and feelings, so he is very grateful to this little comrade, and the two of them have become New Year's friends. Now, some people are taking advantage of this to seize that little comrade and want to frame Comrade Runji through the so-called crime of that little comrade. I'm not guessing. If you take a look at the posts and reports on the Internet and in the media, you will know that some people actually compare Comrade Runji to a high-ranking man in the Song Dynasty who did not learn and did nothing, and falsely called the little comrade who saved Comrade Runji's life as Gao Yanei.

"Therefore, I convened this Standing Committee today to discuss with you: How should the 5.16 case be investigated next? How should we correct the direction of the task force's investigation and stop those rumors flying all over the sky? Now, please speak freely and express your own opinions and opinions! ”
