The pursuit of a position in officialdom

"Secretary-General, you are overly worried. Look at what could happen to our police comrades standing three meters apart." With that, Li Wujiang got out of the car and entered through the gate.

At this time, some demolition residents recognized Li Wujiang and shouted loudly when they saw Li Wujiang coming over.

Li Wujiang didn't care about this, but walked to an old man's side. "Old man, how old are you this year?"

"I'm over seventy years old."

"Old man, you have been wronged. This is because our government has not done a good job. Qiao Yi, please go ahead and move stools for these elderly people. Don't let these elderly people sit on the ground, as they will catch a cold."

"Secretary Li, District Chief Lu is a good cadre and a good comrade. He died to save us old comrades. He died unjustly. You must make the decision for him." The seventy-year-old man burst into tears. .

"Old man, I know what you are saying. Lu Zhengren is a good cadre of our country and a good public servant of the people. He was honest and honest during his lifetime and dedicated to the people. For a good comrade like him, his departure makes us all sad. Don't worry The Municipal Party Committee will definitely clear up Comrade Zhengren’s name and give him justice.”

"Secretary Li, are you telling the truth?"

"Old man, don't worry. If I can't do it, you can poke me in the back of Li Wujiang and scold me as much as you want. If you don't make decisions for the people when you are an official, you might as well go home and plant sweet potatoes. What the people care about is what our government cares about. "What everyone is dissatisfied with is what we did not do well. We will definitely learn lessons and make corrections seriously." Li Wujiang deliberately amplified his voice. At this time, many people heard what Li Wujiang said.

"Secretary Li, how do we believe what you said? The Xincheng District Small Commodity Wholesale City project was developed by Mayor Fan's son and Secretary Wei's son. What can you do to them? In the end, you are not officials protecting each other."

"Please believe in the government. When I last inspected the construction project of the small commodity market in the new urban area, I said that land acquisition and demolition must be systematic and transparent, and everyone must know about it and obtain everyone's consent. I still say the same today , I will personally take care of this matter. Any enterprise participating in our major projects in Guangyuan City must go through the bidding process to ensure that the process is transparent and fair. I am here to tell you that the municipal party committee has decided to hold a symposium of mass representatives. Let's send representatives as soon as possible, and we will sit together to discuss this issue." Li Wujiang avoided the topic just now, because after all, it involved Fan Datong, and he did not want to completely intensify the conflict between the two people.

Li Wujiang walked among the crowd, asked for help, and apologized in person. Song Xiaoyu was outside the door, recording everything with a camera. She originally thought that Li Wujiang was an arrogant person, but she didn't expect that Li Wujiang was so close to the people.

Hu Shengtang watched with fear, fearing that something might happen to Li Wujiang.

Wen Kuanhe and Ma Chaozhong worked fairly reliably. After a day's work, a total of twenty mass representatives were selected. Li Wujiang personally met with these representatives at the meeting. He originally asked Hu Shengtang to notify Fan Datong, but Fan Datong did not come.

"Dear fellow villagers, we are sitting here today mainly to solve the land acquisition and demolition incident in Xincheng District. Because we did not do our job well, we have added a lot of trouble to everyone's lives. I would like to apologize to everyone here. Here you can speak freely and have any ideas. , requests can be made.”

"Secretary Li, District Chief Lu is a good cadre. He was killed by a traitor because of our affairs. How is the government going to deal with it?"

"I am also deeply saddened by the tragic death of Comrade Lu Zhengren. The Municipal Party Committee has established a funeral committee, with me as the director of the funeral committee. Comrade Lu Zhengren's death will be handled according to the treatment of department-level cadres, and we will give preferential care to his family members . In addition, we will investigate the legal liability of those involved and demand compensation from the companies involved. ”

"Secretary Li, Wanjia Real Estate is the company of Mayor Fan's son. What are you going to do with him?"

"Our country encourages enterprise development, and enterprise development is also to create a better living environment for everyone. We will review the matter of Wanjia Real Estate in accordance with the law. If there are illegal issues, no matter who is involved, we will deal with it strictly."

"Wei Jianshe, secretary of the Xincheng District Party Committee, did not respect the wishes of the people and openly ordered demolition, which led to the death of District Chief Lu. He is the culprit and the government must severely punish him. If he continues to do this in our Xincheng, the people of our Xincheng will not promise."

"Okay, regarding issues related to Wei Jianshe, I will arrange for comrades from the Discipline Inspection Commission to conduct an review and I will definitely give everyone a satisfactory explanation."

"Secretary Li, we do not welcome Wanjia Real Estate to participate in project development in our new urban area. We hope that Wanjia Real Estate will withdraw."

"Development is our country's task, and our Guangyuan City is no exception. If we don't develop, we will fall behind. We support enterprises to do business legally and honestly, and we firmly do not welcome some enterprises that harm the interests of the people. Here I want to explain to you. One thing is that the demolition and demolition of small commodity construction projects in the new urban area has been temporarily suspended. The municipal committee will introduce a land acquisition and demolition system as soon as possible. When will the land acquisition and demolition be satisfied with everyone, and when will the construction be started. "

Chapter 640: Calm on the surface, turbulent inside

Finally, Li Wujiang said, "Everyone, we are all members of the same family. We have been sitting here for a few days and it is very hard. I hope everyone can persuade their relatives and friends to go back and give our government a week. The Guangyuan Municipal Party Committee and Government have ability to resolve this matter to everyone’s satisfaction.”

In fact, these people had almost made a fuss and got the answers they wanted. They and Li Wujiang repeatedly agreed that these representatives would persuade people outside to slowly leave the municipal party committee compound.

"Secretary Li, everyone in the courtyard has left." Han Qiao Yihui reported. Han Qiaoyi looked at the people leaving, and his admiration for Li Wujiang rose to the extreme. This is the authority of a leader. What Fan Datong failed to accomplish in Guangyuan City for so many years was accomplished by Li Wujiang.

"Okay, I understand. You inform Secretary Wen that the Standing Committee meeting will be held tomorrow. You tell Secretary Wen that they will come up with the investigation conclusion on Comrade Lu Zhengren at the Standing Committee tomorrow. In addition, you inform Secretary Patriot to come to my office."

Hou Aiguo came quickly. "Secretary Li, you are so powerful. As long as you come forward, there is no problem that cannot be solved."

"Patriotic Secretary, if people outside compliment me, please stop complimenting me. I made a promise to these people with conditions. If these conditions cannot be met, you also know what the final result will be. The calm is only temporary, we need Do more to restore order."

"Secretary Li, if you have any instructions, just make arrangements."

"The incident in Xincheng District has caused such a huge negative impact. How did the Discipline Inspection Commission consider it?"

"Secretary Li, there must be problems with the district committee and district government in the land acquisition and demolition work in Xincheng District. However, the work of grassroots comrades is not easy. Mayor Fan has communicated with me and suggested that Comrade Wei Jianshe be given a serious warning within the party and an administrative Major demerits will be recorded; Comrade Ma Chaozhong will be dismissed."

Li Wujiang was calm on the surface, but there was a huge wave in his heart. This Fan Datong is good at handling things. He treats his own people lightly, but treats people who are not his own with severity. If he follows his approach, the government will not need any authority and credibility. "Secretary Patriot, what I want now is the opinion of your Discipline Inspection Commission. Your investigation must be conducted from an objective and fair perspective. Whoever has the problem will be dealt with. We don't want to slap sticks indiscriminately, but we don't want to let any bad guy go."

"Secretary Li, after the fatal accident occurred in Xincheng District, our Discipline Inspection Commission also received many reports. We also sent people to follow up on the whole incident immediately. From what we know so far, the Secretary of Construction was indeed handling it on site. There were inappropriate situations in the process, and the situation on the scene was not controlled in a timely manner, which eventually led to disaster. However, the starting point of the construction secretary was to do his job, but he failed to deal with it appropriately and killed him with a stick according to the wishes of the people. Destroying the enthusiasm of our cadres for their work. I think Mayor Fan’s suggestions are reasonable. "Hou Aiguo and Fan Datong have a good relationship, and they even say that they are in the same camp. Of course Hou Aiguo would speak for Wei Jianshe at this time.

Li Wujiang invited Hou Aiguo to come here partly because he wanted to discuss it with him, and partly because he wanted to understand Hou Aiguo's attitude. Hou Aiguo's attitude determines Li Wujiang's next move.

"How to deal with the attitude of the people?"

"Secretary Li, we cannot only consider the attitude of the people and ignore the emotions of our comrades. Everyone is here for work. If they are punished because of their work, I am worried that it will chill the hearts of our comrades."

"Okay, I understand what you said. The Standing Committee will hold tomorrow. Mention how you will handle the matter, and we will study it at the meeting." Li Wujiang saw it off without saying anything, and saw the guests off directly.

"Mayor Fan, it seems Secretary Li is going to operate on Lao Wei." Hou Aiguo left Li Wujiang's office and turned around to Fan Datong's office.

"This person will sacrifice the future of others for his own position. If he doesn't want to study on the Standing Committee, then go to the Standing Committee to study. If he is not afraid of being slapped in the face, then give it a try." Fan Datong is very confident.

"Mayor Fan, I'm worried that Secretary Li will have a back-up plan. If this is the case, then we will be more passive. After all, the Secretary of Construction made the mistake first. If he seizes other excuses, it will be difficult for us to deal with it. "

"Don't worry, he is a loner in Guangyuan. Who else can stand with him except a group of ordinary people."

"Chunlin, you're here, come on, sit down."

"Secretary Liu, I'm here to report to you on my studies in the capital during this period." Hua Chunlin followed Li Wujiang's advice and went to Liu Wanquan in person to report on his studies. "While studying in Beijing, the upper-level leaders conveyed a point of view, that is, in order to develop and improve people's livelihood, we must adhere to people-oriented development, safeguard the interests of the people, and let the fruits of development be enjoyed by the people."

"Okay, it seems that I learned well in the capital. Our country's economy is currently developing very fast. In order to develop the economy, some places do not hesitate to sacrifice the interests of the people. This has resulted in intensified social conflicts, fierce confrontation between the people and the government, and triggered This has caused social instability and has also caused problems for the development of the country. You have just returned from the capital and you need to do more research in this area. I heard that you and Wujiang were classmates in the same period, and he went to Donghai ahead of schedule before finishing his studies. ." Liu Wanquan took the initiative to bring up the matter.

"Yes, I was fortunate enough to meet Governor Li in the capital. He showed great ability in school, and even more wisdom when he arrived in Donghai. I want to learn more from Governor Li, and of course, Secretary Liu. "

"Chunlin, you have graduated now. What are your plans for the next step?"

Hua Chunlin thought in his mind, what to do next? Could this be his final decision? He knew that what Liu Wanquan wanted from him at this time was attitude. He immediately expressed his stance, "Secretary Liu, I am a brick of the organization." , I will follow your arrangements, and I will work wherever you tell me to do it.”

Liu Wanquan was quite satisfied with Hua Chunlin's attitude and said, "Okay, you will rest at home during this period and pay more attention to issues related to people's livelihood when you have time. The provincial party committee will make unified arrangements for your whereabouts." "

"Brother Cheng Lin, I heard that Secretary Li has said that our project will be suspended, and maybe we will be asked to withdraw from the project. If this happens, our losses will be huge." Wei Chongyang said.

"Guangyuan City is not yet for him to be in charge of. He thinks that he can fulfill his promises to the people just by opening his mouth. He doesn't care about whose territory Guangyuan belongs to. Don't think that as secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, he can do whatever he wants. "

Chapter 641: Talk about rules and politics

"Yes, we can't let him succeed. Brother Cheng Lin, there have been a few good girls in heaven and earth recently, and I have prepared them for you."

"Okay, let's go, let's be as cool as we want."

Li Wujiang has been working in Donghai for a long time. It has been two months. It is the second time that Li Wujiang has held a meeting of the Standing Committee. Mayor Fan Datong, Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee Wen Kuanhe, Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee and Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee Feng Hongyi, Executive Chairman Vice Mayor Song Jianping, Vice Mayor of the Standing Committee Liu Minghao, Organization Department Minister Wang Guangqing, Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary Hou Aiguo, Propaganda Department Minister Ma Zhanqin, United Front Work Minister Niu Zhengshan, Secretary-General Hu Shengtang, and Military Region Commander Sun Jiyuan all attended the meeting on time.

Li Wujiang personally presided over the meeting, "Dear leaders, today we have this meeting to discuss how to solve the problem of land acquisition and demolition in the new urban area. There is only one topic, but it involves a lot of content. We may have disputes. I hope everyone can Consider the issue from the perspective of the people, the overall situation, and the development of Guangyuan City. I don’t want what happened yesterday to happen again. I believe everyone here has the same expectation. Okay, let’s get to the point now. Yesterday we had a discussion with mass representatives from Xincheng District. We discussed the content of the discussion one by one. Secretary-General, you will tell everyone one by one, and we will study each one. Qiao Yi, take notes and let each leader speak. Everything must be recorded for inspection by superiors.”

Li Wujiang's last words stunned the standing committee members present. This Li Wujiang was a naked threat. If you don't follow the rules and don't talk about politics, then I'm sorry, I can't control it. Then leave it to the superiors. Who wants to Let whoever takes on this responsibility for Guangyuan be responsible. This time, the members of the Standing Committee, who had been watching the show, regained their spirits.

Hu Shengtang looked at everyone and said, "I had a discussion with mass representatives yesterday and collected a lot of opinions. According to Secretary Li's request, we will discuss them one by one, so I will start from the first one. The first is about Comrade Lu Zhengren. "Whether Lu Zhengren can be called an excellent cadre and worthy of learning from our cadres is the first thing we will discuss."

"Secretary Wen, please tell me about this matter. I asked you to conduct an investigation with comrades from the Organization Department and the Discipline Inspection Commission. What was the result?"

"Secretary Li, in accordance with your request, my comrades from the Organization Department and the Discipline Inspection Commission and I worked overtime and spent a lot of energy to visit and hold discussions with Comrade Lu Zhengren where he worked and lived, and reviewed relevant archives. Lu Comrade Zhengren has been working hard and diligently for more than 20 years. He is devoted to the people. He is upright and honest as an official. He lives a hard and simple life. Where he is an official, he has done many good things for the local people and the people think highly of him. . In terms of family, he takes little care of his family, especially since they are still living in a rented house and his wife does not have a formal job. However, we also learned about Comrade Lu Zhengren during his work. He has a stubborn personality, is relatively extreme, lacks a sense of the overall situation, and has poor interpersonal relationships. This is the specific situation.”

"Then what is your conclusion?"

"We believe that Comrade Lu Zhengren is a qualified cadre overall."

"Everyone talks about what they think of Lu Zhengren. How could a good cadre who dedicated himself to the people die at the wheel of his work? Is such a cadre worth learning from? The common people want us to clear his name, but we should not His name should be rectified. I don’t know if you saw the Donghai News last night. There was a news article that specifically reported the typical deeds of Comrade Lu Zhengren, a good cadre in the new era. "

"Dear leaders, let me say something. I was actually quite shocked after listening to Secretary Wen's introduction just now. Lu Zhengren is indeed not perfect, but no one is perfect. His spirit of serving the people wholeheartedly is worth learning from. Social Development At this point, Comrade Lu Zhengren is still living in a rented house and his wife has no job. It is really unimaginable that any of our cadres can do this, especially after seeing the huge crowds of people paying their respects on the street. It's really touching. If the cadres praised by the people are not good cadres, then what else can be considered good cadres?" Liu Minghao took the initiative this time and winked at Li Wujiang to express his support for Li Wujiang.

Fan Datong did not expect that Liu Minghao, who was usually not very expressive, would take the initiative to talk about Lu Zhengren's good deeds, and cited examples from ordinary people to illustrate. This made everyone unable to continue talking and could only agree with Li Zhengren. It means boundless. But he wouldn't let Li Wujiang succeed so easily. "I would also like to say a few words. There is no doubt about the merits of Comrade Lu Zhengren. Everyone sees it. We can commemorate his unfortunate death, but it is not easy to over-promote it. After all, he also had problems at work. He did not obey The unified arrangement and deployment of Xincheng District caused the tragedy. If he is to be commended, will it set a wrong example for other cadres? "

After Fan Datong finished speaking, no one spoke anymore. If anyone said anything more, they would be contradicting him.

Li Wujiang saw that the meeting was quiet, and began to point out, "Everyone, the so-called reason cannot be clearly understood, and things cannot be explained clearly. Let's speak with an open mind. Everything is for work. Next, everyone will speak in order. Feng Secretary, you come first.”

Feng Hongyi, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee and secretary of the political and legal committee, usually keeps a low profile and is unwilling to get involved in the matter, but Li Wujiang pointed it out, he had to say it, cleared his throat and said, "I just heard the story of Lu Zhengren, it is indeed very touching. For a deputy district chief to be so incorruptible, it is worth learning from all of us. Many of our cadres ask themselves, how many cadres can do this and be greeted by so many people after they leave office? The better thing to say is that it is supported by the people. Is it wrong? We should not forget who we are for, whether it is for the economy or for the people. Of course, whether there are problems with Comrade Lu Zhengren at the demolition site, This issue can be discussed and discussed easily. If the government’s command is correct, it means there is something wrong with Lu Zhengren. If there is a problem with the government’s command itself, it proves that Comrade Lu Zhengren is right.”

Fan Datong did not expect that Feng Hongyi would suddenly let off such a big thunder and actually stand with Li Wujiang. When did Feng Hongyi actually stand with Li Wujiang? This was a huge challenge to him.

Chapter 642 Cheng Yaojin shows up halfway

"What Secretary Feng said just now is very good. The right and wrong of Lu Zhengren is very important. Many people recorded the video at that time. Qiao Yi, please bring the video and play it for all the leaders here to take a look. "

Hu Shengtang felt that Li Wujiang was definitely prepared, and he immediately prepared the video tape, which showed that Li Wujiang was fully prepared. The most critical thing was that Li Wujiang did not pass him through. This made him feel a sense of crisis. A secretary-general who cannot be trusted by the secretary will be replaced sooner or later.

When the videotape was taken out, everyone knew that Fan Datong failed in the first debate. The scene of Lu Zhengren's awe-inspiring righteousness made all leaders stand in awe. If anyone dares to say that safeguarding the interests of the people is wrong, it is with Organize confrontation. However, Li Wujiang still asked everyone to express their opinions one by one. In the end, the rest of the people supported Li Wujiang's opinion.

"Secretary Wen, Minister Wang, Minister Zhan Qin, and Secretary-General, please meet and discuss immediately after the meeting. Immediately report Lu Zhengren's advanced deeds to the provincial party committee and provincial government, ratify Lu Zhengren as a loyal cadre of our organization, and call on the city's cadres to report to the provincial government. Comrade Lu Zhengren studied and organized cadres from various agencies to attend Comrade Lu Zhengren’s memorial service. We must treat Lu Zhengren’s family preferentially, arrange work for his lover, and provide for his children to graduate from college. Okay, Secretary General, we must. Let’s discuss the next one.”

Dear leaders, the next most intense reaction from the mass representatives is the question of whether to stop the construction of the small commodity wholesale market. They believe that land acquisition and demolition have harmed the interests of the local people, and they demand that the land acquisition and demolition work be stopped. "

As soon as Hu Shengtang finished speaking, Fan Datong said anxiously, "I firmly oppose this question. The small commodity wholesale market industry is the pillar industry of our Guangyuan City and the image industry of our Guangyuan City. We will promote the construction of the small commodity wholesale city in the new urban area." The purpose is to promote the upgrading of Guangyuan City's wholesale market and promote the further development of Guangyuan City's economy. If the construction is stopped, who will bear the responsibility? "

"Yes, I think what Mayor Fan said makes sense. If there is a problem, we cannot beat him to death with a stick. If there is a problem, we cannot just give up. Problems encountered during development must be solved during development. During the land acquisition and demolition process of the project When we encounter problems, we must find ways to solve the problems encountered during the demolition process, actively communicate with the demolished people, understand their needs and ideas, and prescribe appropriate medicines to solve the problems. Currently, all places are striving for development. We are doing our best. Guangyuan City cannot lag behind. Moreover, this year we in Guangyuan plan to report to the Global Trade Expo, and the small commodity market will be the highlight." Song Jianping also added after Fan Datong's speech.

After listening to this, Li Wujiang thought that what Song Jianping said was quite reasonable and he had grasped the main problem. Development is the general trend. It is impossible to stop construction. The next step is how to build morality. However, Li Wujiang was not in a hurry to speak. He waited for everyone to express their opinions before saying, "I just listened to everyone's speeches. They are very pertinent. They all think about the issue from the overall development of Guangyuan City. In fact, I have been thinking about this issue." At the current stage, not only we in Guangyuan, but also all over the country are encountering such problems, especially the increasing conflicts between land acquisition and demolition and the masses, and even bloody incidents in some places. In other words, we are currently encountering such problems. When it comes to universal issues, how should we solve this problem? This is a question worth considering. I don’t think there is a contradiction between development and people’s livelihood. Our development is to ensure people’s livelihood. To improve the quality of life of the people, of course we must understand that the premise of development is for the people. In the process of development, we must take the interests of the people into consideration in advance. Only if we take one more step and think more about the people during the development process. Conflicts will be reduced a lot.”

Li Wujiang stopped to take a sip of water, and continued, "This requires our government to change its work philosophy and truly build a service-oriented government, always keeping the people and the concept of enterprise development in mind. Specifically, this is a lesson for the new urban area. The experience and lessons are profound, and the outcome is tragic. How we resolve this contradiction is very important. Faced with the current fierce attitude of the masses, I suggest that the construction of the New City Small Commodity Wholesale Market City be postponed. What I say is to postpone it, not not to build it, and to establish a command. Department, I personally serve as the head of the headquarters, and I will arrange special personnel to connect with the people based on the issues that are strongly reported by the people, understand their needs, and strengthen communication until the opinions are reached with the people before starting construction."

"Secretary Li, once work is stopped, it will cause great losses to the company. Who will bear these losses?" Fan Datong asked.

"Mayor Fan, there is an issue that people are reacting very strongly to. I don't think the secretary-general has the nerve to say it, but it is indeed a problem. I need to remind Mayor Fan that some people say that the investor in this project is Mr. Fan. If so, I I hope Mayor Fan can do his job well and put the overall situation first. If not, then we will re-examine the bidding procedures of the relevant companies." At this time, Li Wujiang directly enlarged the bidding. He knew that this issue belonged to Fan Datong. The key point is that if Fan Datong takes a step back, nothing can be said. If Fan Datong insists on continuing to insist on this issue, then don't blame him for being ruthless.

The Standing Committee members present were very shocked when they saw Li Wujiang directly mentioning his name. This was Li Wujiang directly showing his sword to Fan Datong. If the two leaders do not handle it well, it will be detrimental to the future development of Guangyuan City.

"Secretary Li, there are legal procedures for Wanjia Real Estate to participate in the construction of the small commodity wholesale market. Our Guangyuan City also supports companies from all over the country to invest and establish businesses in Guangyuan City." Fan Datong was a little angry. He now felt like someone was stepping on his tail. That feeling.

"I would like to reiterate that Guangyuan welcomes companies from all over the country to invest and start businesses in Guangyuan and supports companies to operate legally. For problems that exist in the business process, our municipal party committee and government have the right to intervene in accordance with the law. We must not only protect the rights and interests of companies The legitimate rights and interests of the people must also be protected. Mayor Fan, if you take a step back, the world will be brighter.”

When Fan Datong saw that Li Wujiang was talking about this, he didn't say anything else. Zhao Rongchun's son was a precedent. Something happened to his son and almost implicated me. If he insists on going his own way again, Li Wujiang will continue to investigate along this road. Then it is difficult to predict what the final result will be.
