The Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee was scheduled to be held at nine o'clock that night, and at six o'clock, the three giants gathered in the canteen of the organ.

Yu Huabei and Zhao Anbang walked into the door almost front and back, and before coming in, Pei Yihong had already arrived first, and was explaining something to Secretary General Zheng of the Provincial Party Committee with a calm face. Seeing them arrive, Pei Yihong had a slight smile on his face, and greeted him, "Anbang, Lao Yu, I'm talking to Lao Zheng, let Wenshan make preparations and come over tomorrow to report!" ”

Zhao Anbang laughed at himself and said: "What else to report, it's already such a situation, which of us doesn't count it in our hearts!" ”

Yu Huabei also said: "That's it, Lao Pei, now I don't have to listen to what Shi Yanan and Fang Zhenggang say, I have to listen to what the above says!" The leaders of the Central Committee and the State Council have instructions, what else do we have to say, we can only implement them! ”

Pei Yihong said: "The implementation has to be implemented in Wenshan, Shi Yanan and Fang Zhenggang's report, we need to listen to it!" He also said to Secretary-General Zheng, "You should notify me immediately, and let Wenshan prepare the report materials overnight!" ”

Secretary-General Zheng responded: "Okay, Governor Zhao, Secretary Yu, you can talk to Secretary Pei, I'll go first!" ”

Zhao Anbang stopped Secretary General Zheng, "Lao Zheng, I also inform the Provincial Development and Reform Commission and the Department of Land and Resources and other departments to prepare for the report, how did these six major projects in Wenshan get so large-scale, please explain it to me!" The Provincial Development and Reform Commission don't look for others, just look for Shi Yanan's husband, the executive deputy director Gu Gensheng, he should be clear! ”

Secretary-General Zheng nodded again and again, "Okay, okay, Governor Zhao, I'll notify you immediately!" "With that, I went out.

At this time, Zhao Anbang's attitude was quite good, and there was no indication that he would have an argument with Pei Yihong.

Yu Huabei's feeling at that time was that Zhao Anbang seemed to be more serious than Pei Yihong, not only acquiescing to Pei Yihong's direct intervention in Wenshan's economic work, but also throwing out the Provincial Development and Reform Commission and the Department of Land and Resources on his own initiative. However, Pei Yihong's approach was a bit abnormal, and he asked Comrade Wenshan to come over to report, but he didn't ask Zhao Anbang's opinion, so he directly gave an order. From this, three conclusions can be drawn: first, in Pei Yihong's eyes, the pile of steel in Wenshan is no longer a simple economic problem, but a political problem, and second, it is related to the attitude towards the central government's macroeconomic regulation and control and his own future, Pei Yihong is not prepared to compromise with anyone; Third, as the leader of Hanjiang Province, Pei Yihong was really anxious this time, and he couldn't care about whether any comrade in the team was happy, even if this comrade was the head of a province.

Zhao Anbang was not confused, he saw the problem, but he was afraid that he could also see it, as soon as he sat down at the table, he said to Pei Yihong: "Old Pei, your meal, I don't think it's very delicious, it's a bit like a Hongmen banquet!" ”

Pei Yihong pretended to be relaxed and said: "How is it the Hongmen Banquet?" It's just ventilation before the meeting, let's talk while eating! As he spoke, he ate first, "Anbang, Lao Yu, I won't tell you anything, I was criticized by the leaders of the State Council like this, I didn't even have the heart to eat lunch, so I ate a few slices of bread on the plane, and I was really hungry!" ”

Zhao Anbang seemed to underestimate the seriousness of the matter, "So serious? What did the leaders approve? ”

Pei Yihong smiled bitterly: "I don't want to say anything specific, you want to go!" But for self-reflection, we also deserve to be criticized, the mind lacks the string of macro control, and it hits the muzzle, let's treat it correctly! ”

Zhao Anbang said: "In fact, it is not only our province that lacks this string, but many economically developed provinces have similar problems!" Lao Pei, I remember that we discussed this matter, this macroeconomic control is not the same as the previous two rounds of macroeconomic control, and there were differences from the beginning. Many provinces and regions believe that China's economy is in an upward period, and the rapid growth of steel and other industries is supported by market demand, and the market will continue to adjust automatically. The current market is relatively mature, and the function of automatic adjustment has been greatly strengthened, which is not the same as in the past......"

Pei Yihong interrupted Zhao Anbang's words, "Stop, stop, Anbang, don't say this!" I'm afraid that the provinces and autonomous regions you mentioned will all express their stance to the central government in the near future. I will make a statement on behalf of the Han River, order and prohibit, and act in accordance with the spirit of the central government! He also said that the central joint investigation team urgently investigated and dealt with 8.4 million tons of illegal steel in a certain province in the Yangtze River Delta region, "Anbang, Lao Yu, you pay attention to the news, the comrades of the relevant ministries and commissions of the state have told me that the central government has a clear instruction to resolutely investigate and deal with this illegal incident in the province and publicly expose it!" ”

Yu Huabei was taken aback, "Lao Pei, shouldn't the central government also send a joint investigation team to our Hanjiang Province?" ”

Pei Yihong said: "Who dares to say this? If we do not accept the lesson and do not immediately take resolute measures, it is entirely possible that the central authorities will directly investigate and deal with it! He said to Zhao Anbang again, "Anbang, it really can't be done if the central government doesn't regulate it now, and the side effects of investment inflation are already more serious!" The data held by the leaders of the State Council and relevant ministries and commissions prove that the contradictions in the country's economic operation are very prominent, and our two major power plants cannot even supply thermal coal! ”

Zhao Anbang's tone changed, "Lao Pei, I'm not saying that it shouldn't be regulated, but recalling the background at that time!" ”

Yu Huabei felt that it was still necessary to recall the background of the problem, and under this premise, when talking about Wenshan Iron and Steel, Hanjiang was more active, that is, to understand the problem, so he said: "The background of Anbang's recollection is very important, that is, the error in understanding, it cannot be said that we refused to implement the central policy before!" ”

Pei Yihong said: "Yes, yes, we can explain it like this, in fact, I also explained it this way." However, we cannot turn a blind eye to another issue, that is, the game between local economic interests and central policies. The leading comrades of the State Council pointed this point out to me, do I dare not admit it? Dare to say that there is no such game? There's always some, right? Now the problem lies in the place. Last year, the investment in fixed assets of central enterprises increased by more than 10 percent. More than sixty percent. During the Spring Festival, Anbang was worried about the scale of steel in Wenshan, and I was also a little worried, I said to Anbang, past experience has proved that the loser of this game is likely to be the place! ”

Yu Huabei thought to himself, isn't this statement asking for trouble? picked it up again, "Lao Pei, let's not talk so scary!" What kind of game? Also playing with the central policy! I insist on one point of view: it is to recognize the problem! ”

Zhao Anbang said: "Lao Yu, this is a problem of understanding, however, the game mentality cannot be said to be no, if there is no such mentality, everything will come according to the regulations, and there will be no such passive situation today, lesson!" ”

Yu Huabei admitted: "It's a lesson, I wasn't sober at the time, and I cheered for them!" The conversation changed, "But whether they violated the rules, I don't know, Fang Zhenggang and Shi Yanan never told me!" ”

Pei Yihong said: "How can they talk to you about such a thing? Anbang went down to inspect and was also blinded, and he still hyped it up in the newspaper! Wenshan, including Yinshan, has its own small abacus, and it is also playing with the province. Now that the main body of interests is diversified, and there is a problem of political performance, all localities and cities attach great importance to GDP, and the investment impulse cannot be curbed, and every effort is made to evade supervision at all levels, forming a tacit unspoken rule. Therefore, this time we must thoroughly investigate and deal with it seriously, otherwise it will cause further passivity, and we will not be able to explain to the central government! ”

Zhao Anbang bit the steamed bun in his mouth, nodded and said: "Yes, I agree with Lao Pei's opinion, what should be investigated must be investigated, and what should be dealt with must be dealt with seriously, and the secretary and head of Yinshan Jinchuan District can be dealt with first!" ”

Yu Huabei knew in his heart: Yinshan's stall had not yet been spread, and it was only the use of the 600 acres of land, and no matter how serious it was, it would not cause much loss. The more troublesome is Wenshan, the 7 million tons of steel in the Wenshan Iron and Steel New Area are in full swing, not to say that you can stop it, but if you stop it, the loss will be too great.

At this time, Pei Yihong also talked about Wenshan, "Yinshan is not the point, the current focus is Wenshan!" ”

Zhao Anbang thought for a while and said worriedly: "For Wenshan, I'm afraid we have to be a little more cautious!" ”

Pei Yihong glanced at Zhao Anbang, "Anbang, what do you mean?" How cautious do you want to be? Spread it out! ”

Zhao Anbang stopped eating, put down the chopsticks in his hand, "Lao Pei, then you say first, how do you want to check Wenshan?" ”

Pei Yihong said frankly: "According to the requirements of the central government, immediately organize an investigation team, focus on investigation, and open investigation!" ”

Zhao Anbang was stunned and looked at Yu Huabei, "Hey, old Yu, what is your opinion?" Can it be checked publicly? ”

Yu Huabei thought for a while, "I don't care about the economy, I don't have anything to say, respect your and Lao Pei's opinions!" ”

Zhao Anbang stared at him, "Old Yu, don't slip your head, you have always been a cheerleader of Wenshan Steel!" Your brother doesn't want to think about it, what kind of situation will it cause if it is really investigated publicly? Banks are chasing loans, creditors are collecting debts, and the six major projects in Wenshan New Area are about to have big problems! It's not because of this that I took measures when I went down before the holiday! ”

Only then did Yu Huabei say what was in his heart: "This is also true, more than 7 million tons of steel, more than 16 billion!" ”

Zhao Anbang turned his face to Pei Yihong, "Old Pei, how to investigate and deal with Wenshan, my thoughts are a little different from yours." It is necessary to resolutely investigate and make everything clear, but it is not appropriate to make it public. After all, more than 160 million were thrown down! ”

Pei Yihong had something to say, "Yes, the child was born!" Some comrades always think that since the child has been born, they cannot be strangled, and they will be bold, and more and more children will be born without a plan. It is precisely because of this that the central authorities have grasped the typical case of 8.4 million tons of steel in fraternal provinces this time. We do not openly and seriously investigate and deal with the situation, and report the investigation and handling situation in a timely manner, and the central authorities may come to investigate it for us! Anbang, do you think it is necessary to alarm the central government again? ”

Zhao Anbang was stunned for a moment, speechless, and sighed helplessly: "Who wants to alarm the central government again!" ”

Pei Yihong ate again, "I didn't mean to strangle the child I born, I just checked the birth certificate!" ”

Zhao Anbang looked at Pei Yihong gloomily, "No matter how tactful you say, it's still like that!" If we go to check the birth certificate with great fanfare, it is equivalent to publicly announcing that the 7 million tons of steel in Wenshan do not have a birth certificate! At least there is a problem with the birth certificate! It is estimated that no one will dare to continue to breastfeed the child, and the final result may be to starve the child to death! ”

Pei Yihong said: "Starving children to find their mothers, if they dare to give birth to this child, they have to be responsible for the child!" ”

Zhao Anbang smiled bitterly, "I really starved the child to death, it's useless to find anyone, can we be realistic?" ”

Pei Yihong was a little impatient, "Anbang, how else can we be realistic?" You say, you say it! ”

Zhao Anbang said: "Lao Pei, my personal opinion, at this time can not be full of wind and rain in the city, our provincial party committee, the provincial **, mainly I, the governor, to the central government to make a good review, take the initiative to take responsibility, at the same time, the verified violations of the cadres to be seriously organized. Under this premise, the project under construction is re-submitted for approval! ”

Yu Huabei said tentatively: "Hey, Lao Pei, I think Anbang's suggestion is not impossible to consider!" ”

Pei Yihong was already very unhappy, and knocked on the table with his knuckles, "Two, two, why aren't you clear-headed?" Let me remind you again: We will not openly and thoroughly investigate these 7 million tons of steel, but the central government will investigate! ”

Zhao Anbang also sank his face, "That's why we have to hurry up and do our work and review!" Lao Pei, Lao Yu, let me make it clear again: I am the governor of Hanjiang Province, and I am in charge of economic work, so please ask the central government to punish me! ”

Pei Yihong sighed again and again, "Anbang, let's think about it in another place, okay?" Is this a passable thing to do after a review? If this is really the past, won't the violators be bargained for again? Will this kind of violation be stopped in the future? In a game of chess in the national economy, what is a Wensan in Hanjiang Province? Isn't he just a pawn! ”

Zhao Anbang waved his hand, "This pawn is not small, with a population of more than 8 million and more than 1.6 billion!" ”

Pei Yihong insisted: "For the overall situation, from the perspective of the center, it is a pawn!" Just like fighting a war, for the sake of the overall situation, the sacrifice must be sacrificed! After a slight pause, he said, "Anbang, I have already seen that the central government does not hesitate to sacrifice a pawn this time, but also in exchange for a situation where the government decree is unimpeded and the order is forbidden!" ”

After saying this, Yu Huabei thought, Wenshan seems to be in a catastrophe this time, and it is useless to fight again.

Zhao Anbang was still arguing, earnest and stubborn, "Lao Pei, I think some work can still be done, at least you can give it a try." The situation in Wenshan is relatively special, there was already a plan to establish a steel city, and this plan was in place before this round of macroeconomic control. Let's not think about it so much, okay? I didn't try it, how do I know it doesn't work? ”

Pei Yihong said: "Anbang, I guess not!" I also explained the background you mentioned to the central government, and the central government did not regard us as a typical example, so it asked us to investigate it ourselves, which is polite enough! I'm not afraid of taking responsibility,—— I'm leaving my words here today: no matter what the consequences will happen in the future, I will first take responsibility, and I am the secretary of the Hanjiang Provincial Party Committee. But, Anbang, Lao Yu, you must understand me and support me! ”

Yu Huabei finally made a clear statement, "Lao Pei, just do it according to your opinion!" Anbang, what do you say? ”

Zhao Anbang was silent for a long time, and said sullenly: "I have said everything I should have said, and I have some reservations!" ”

Pei Yihong grinned and smiled as if crying, "Yes!" However, Anbang, at tonight's Standing Committee, I hope you can be consistent with me and Lao Yu! What about the reserved part of the opinion, it's better not to say it! ”

Zhao Anbang sighed, "Do you still have to explain this?" Let's check it with great fanfare and show it to the central government! ”

Yu Huabei thought to himself, of course you have to check it to the central government, you check it quietly in private, and the central government can't see it, isn't it equivalent to a vain investigation? In fact, there is no need to say this kind of thing thoroughly, and it is not good to look good on anyone's face, especially to Pei Yihong.

Pei Yihong pretended not to hear it, and said: "If possible, we must minimize the loss of Wenshan!" Anbang, since you have thought of this problem, you have to remind Shi Yanan and Fang Zhenggang to take remedial measures as soon as possible! ”

Zhao Anbang vented: "Yes, yes, I'm the governor, it's all my business, I'll do my best!" ”

Although Pei Yihong and Zhao Anbang had an argument on this day, the ventilation dinner ended peacefully.

At nine o'clock sharp, the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee to study and implement the spirit of the central macroeconomic regulation and control was held as scheduled, and Pei Yihong conveyed the instructions of the leaders of the State Council, suggesting that a joint investigation team should be immediately organized to conduct an open and serious investigation of the iron and steel projects in Wenshan and Yinshan, and to find out the problems and deal with them seriously. Wang Rucheng, secretary of the Ningchuan Municipal Party Committee, once again raised the issue that Zhao Anbang was worried about, hoping that the provincial party committee would try to protect the local economy of Wenshan at such a time, so as not to scold his mother from all local princes in the future. Pei Yihong criticized on the spot and said, Wang Rucheng, you are sitting here now, you are a member of the Standing Committee of the Hanjiang Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China, not a local prince! You, a comrade, must have a sense of the overall situation, have the determination and will to implement the policies of the central authorities, and do not and cannot be the spokesman of the local princes. Yu Huabei noticed that after Wang Rucheng was criticized, he turned his attention to Zhao Anbang for help, but Zhao Anbang just didn't see it, tilted his head, and whispered to him.

Zhao Anbang said: "Look, is Lao Pei in a hurry? It's not elegant, don't let people talk! ”

Yu Huabei said: "Understand, if it doesn't come to this point, our squad leader won't be so arbitrary!" ”

Zhao Anbang said: "You also slip your head, if you stand firm when the three of you are ventilated, the situation may be better!" ”

Yu Huabei sneered: "You are very firm, but can Lao Pei listen to it?" Forget it, don't say anything! ”

At this time, Pei Yihong was already discussing the scientific concept of development, from the shortage of thermal coal in the two major power plants in Ningchuan and Pingzhou, to several prominent contradictions in the economic operation of the country and the Han River, citing a large number of relevant data. In the end, it was concluded that although Wenshan has its own special situation, and although the overheating of Wenshan iron and steel investment is a problem of understanding, from today onwards, this understanding must be changed and turned to the principles and policies of the central government, so as to enforce orders and prohibitions. There is only one spirit in the investigation and handling of the Wenshan issue, that is, the spirit of macroeconomic regulation and control by the central authorities; In the future, there will be only one criterion for dealing with Wenshan cadres, that is, whether they have violated the central government's macroeconomic regulation and control policy......

Hearing this, Yu Huabei couldn't help but be surprised: It seems that Fang Zhenggang and Shi Yanan are about to be hit by an arrow!
