Chapter 61: A Peculiar Scheme

No matter how Chen Molei asked, Liu Changzong just refused to give a clear answer. In this embarrassing situation, everyone didn't know what to say for a while, and time seemed to stand still at this moment.

After a few seconds, Liu Changzong looked at his watch and said, "Director Chen, it's almost noon now, otherwise, let's talk about it here today." You see, it's rare for you to come here on a regular basis, so stay at noon. Speaking of which, although we are high school alumni, we have never eaten at a table. Since I have this opportunity today, it is better to be a guest and let me be the host. ”

When it comes to talking, where is Chen Molei still in the mood to eat? There was obvious emotion in his words, saying, "You don't have to eat." If your management committee can enforce the judgment, I will invite you to this meal! ”

"Chen Ju!" Li Jizhou was worried that the relationship would be stiff and the case would be difficult to handle, so he reminded him in a low voice.

"Director Chen! It's not that I'm deliberately delaying, but we're really aggrieved about this matter! I only heard Liu Changzong complain and say: "We held a fireworks show to enrich the spare time life of the masses, and our staff were also very proactive, no one expected that this kind of thing would happen." If I had known that this was the case, I might have better not held the fireworks show in the first place. ”

Chen Molei didn't completely understand Liu Changzong's difficulties, and his tone was a little weaker: "I don't doubt that your intentions are good, but this is not a reason to delay the implementation. And I don't think there's anything to blame for this either. The law must be obeyed and the judgment must be enforced, which is known to all public officials and is the duty of all public officials. Do you still need me to remind you of such a simple truth? ”

"Of course I know this, but I also have to consider the image and reputation of the management committee." Liu Changzong suddenly became serious: "Now, this case has spread within our management committee. If we just enforce the sentence like this, it will be tantamount to us openly admitting that we were wrong. If this matter spreads, won't it damage the reputation of our management committee? ”

Chen Molei did not agree with Liu Changzong's words: "Knowing that mistakes can be corrected, and mistakes must be corrected, isn't this what party and government organs should do?" Besides, this hurting incident was not intentional, it was just negligence, shouldn't you just pay attention to it in the future? What damage can be done to the image and reputation of the Management Committee? ”

Liu Changzong shook his head and said, "You imagine things too simple!" It didn't happen to you, and of course you can stand and talk without a backache. ”

Hearing Liu Changzong's words, Chen Molei guessed that he might have something unspeakable, and wanted to talk to him alone, so he sent Li Jizhou and Liu Minghao out.

Only Chen Molei and Liu Changzong were left in the office. Chen Molei looked directly at Liu Changzong and said, "Director Liu, I want to know exactly, what is the attitude of your management committee?" Can you pay this execution money? ”

Looking at Chen Molei's posture, I'm afraid that if I don't give him an answer today, he won't finish it. Liu Changzong hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll tell you the truth." In this case, the members of our management committee have met twice to discuss it, and both discussions have resulted in one result - the money cannot be paid from financial funds. Now, that's where the case comes in. ”

"Why? Why can't it be paid from the treasury. Chen Molei was very puzzled.

"Because we don't have a budget for that, have you ever seen a government that would include a budget item on the enforcement of a court decision?" Liu Changzong explained: "As you know, the budget is made public. If this item is written into the budget and then announced, what will the people think? Oh, are you ready to break the law and commit crimes? Think about it, if this thing is going to get out, will the government's image be gone? ”

"Aren't you still a good face?" Chen Molei did not agree with Liu Changzong's statement, saying: "If you want me to say, there is nothing to be ashamed of acting in accordance with the law. Didn't I just say that this case was not intentional, but just negligent, and who dares to guarantee that government officials will not make mistakes? If you make a mistake, you have to change it, and if you cause losses to people, you have to pay for it, this is a truth that even children understand, you don't understand, right? Besides, the budget is not dead, and there will always be some room for flexibility. Could it be that without 20,000 yuan, the finances of your management committee will not be able to turn around? ”

"That's what I said, but that's not the case." Liu Changzong frowned more and said: "You must know that financial accounts must be traced, and the final financial accounts must not only be reported to the National People's Congress, but also made public. If this money is paid from the treasury, there will be more people who know about this case, not only the people's congress here, but also the finance bureau.

Director Chen, we can't suppress this matter now, and we don't want to be famous! ”

Chen Molei shook his head and said, "Director Liu, I can't agree with your thoughts. I think your idea is out of place and out of step with the current situation. The government is the guide of the construction of the rule of law and the construction of creditworthiness, and if it makes a mistake, it should be generously admitted, and the rectification should be carried out happily, so that the people can see the attitude and sincerity of the government, so that the people will trust the government.

In this respect, this case is not entirely a bad thing, but rather an opportunity. If you seize this opportunity, have the courage to take responsibility, and let the people see a trustworthy government that can correct mistakes when they make mistakes, then the image of the government will not only not be damaged, but will be improved. I think this is the attitude that your management committee should have! ”

Liu Changzong smiled bitterly and said, "Director Chen, you are too optimistic!" You should know that news involving the government has always been a sensitive topic, let alone the government involved in lawsuits.

If we had paid the execution money with financial funds, I dare say that the case would have spread very quickly, and maybe it would have become an explosive news. When the time comes, when the media reporters hear the news, believe it or not, some media will only focus on negative information in order to attract attention, and they will only report on the negative information of the government at great length, accusing the government of why it does not implement the verdict in time, and there will even be media who will add fuel and vinegar to it and make up stories.

At that time, who knows how public opinion will develop, and once negative public opinion occurs, it will be difficult to control it at the current speed of network transmission. In that case, we are more passive.

So, I really don't agree with your suggestion. ”

Listening to the meaning of Liu Changzong's words, the management committee will definitely not pay Lu Chunhua's compensation openly, and presumably they have also done the appeasement work on Lu Chunhua's side, otherwise, I am afraid that this case would have been in a uproar a long time ago. However, out of his own position, he was still more concerned about the payment of compensation, so he asked: "Having said all this, how do you plan to implement the judgment in this case?" ”

After a big circle, the conversation returned to this heavy topic. Liu Changzong hesitated for a moment, sighed and said, "Now that the matter is over, I won't hide it from you." We have also thought of many ways to implement this case.

At first, we wanted the temporary worker to pay for it, but then we learned that his family was in a normal situation, so we didn't bother him anymore. Later, we went to learn about the situation of Lu Chunhua's family, and wanted to find a famous hall to give her money, but her family was not a difficult household or a five-guarantee household, and the family conditions were not bad, so we didn't find any famous halls. Therefore, how to get this money out, we are also very worried now. ”

Liu Changzong talked for a long time, but he still didn't say how to pay the execution money, Chen Molei was anxious, and asked: "Then, do you plan to pay this execution money?" ”

"Of course we'll be out." Liu Changzong said a little obscurely: "It's just that it can't be out of the financial accounts!" ”

"Then I don't understand." When Chen Molei heard this, he suddenly felt less emotional and more curious: "If you don't get this execution money out of the financial funds, where else can it come from?" Could it be that you still have to go out to solicit sponsorship? ”

"What are you kidding? What is the current situation, and where do we dare to do this? Liu Changzong leaned forward and whispered: "Let me tell you the truth, we plan that this money will be paid by the leadership team of our management committee, and when the money is gathered, we will quietly send it to Lu Chunhua." It's just that the money hasn't been scraped together yet. ”

Chen Molei was surprised when he heard this: "Huh? That's what you planned! ”

"What else else can we do?" Liu Changzong said with a bitter face: "This is already the safest way we can think of, which can not only let Lu Chunhua get the money, but also save you trouble, and can completely calm things down and minimize the impact." You say, is there a better way than this? ”

Chen Molei thought for a while and said, "This is also a solution. So, when will you be able to scrape together the money? ”

"Where is it so easy?" Speaking of making money, Liu Changzong's brows furrowed even deeper: "This matter cannot be apportioned, it can only be done on a voluntary basis." I took the lead in coming out with 2,000 yuan, and I thought that other department-level cadres could also give out 2,000 yuan, but I didn't expect that they all only paid 1,000 yuan, let alone deputy section-level cadres. No, it's still a long way off. ”

The atmosphere in the office was a little solemn, and Chen Molei wanted to ease the atmosphere, so he joked: "Then you will pay for the rest of the money yourself, anyway, it will be your two months' salary." ”

"How can this work?" When Liu Changzong heard this, he became serious: "Haven't you heard that righteousness is not good and compassion is not in charge of the army?" If I take all the money I have left, what will people think of me? Am I, the director of the management committee, not a big wrongdoer, then what authority do I have? How will I arrange my work in the future? Do I have to clean up the mess that others have thrown away? ”

"That's right, it's not unreasonable for you to be worried." Chen Molei nodded in agreement on the surface, but in his heart he thought that Liu Changzong was actually distressed about money. However, he thought about it, he was an iron rooster, if he sat in Liu Changzong's position today, I am afraid he would not even pay a penny. Thinking about it this way, his impression of Liu Changzong changed a lot all of a sudden.
