Fifth,
Yan Shen received the evidence and immediately called Zhao Tiewei. Zhao Tiewei then informed the comrades of the Provincial Discipline Inspection Committee and asked them what kind of question this was and whether it was illegal. The comrades of the Provincial Discipline Inspection Committee said,"If you buy a car that exceeds the standard with the special funds for greenery and bring your wife abroad for investigation, then you can be double-checked.”
When Zhao Tiewei heard this, he said solemnly,""Please report to the Provincial Discipline Inspection Committee immediately. The Provincial Department of Forests 'opinion is to immediately investigate and punish him. The issue of him falsely claiming the special funds for greenery has seriously hindered and interfered with the normal development of the province's greenery work. If the Provincial Discipline Inspection Committee does not deal with it seriously, I will directly report it to the Provincial Party Secretary Ma Zhanjun.”
Zhao Tiewei's words were quite serious. If the Provincial Discipline Inspection Committee didn't deal with it seriously, it was obvious that they were protecting him. If Zhao Tiewei complained to Secretary Ma Zhanjun, he wouldn't be suing Tang Xiaodong but the Provincial Discipline Inspection Committee. Who would dare to take such responsibility?
The provincial disciplinary committee researcher immediately reported Tang Xiaodong's problem and Zhao Tiewei's attitude to the deputy secretary of the Provincial Discipline Inspection Committee. The deputy secretary of the Provincial Discipline Inspection Committee was silent for a moment. He first thought of Tang Xiaodong's father-in-law, then thought of Zhao Tiewei's attitude, and finally thought of the daunting gaze of the provincial party secretary Ma Zhanjun. He made a decision. He ordered Tang Xiaodong to be sent to support him immediately.
Two and a half hours later, the people from the Provincial Discipline Inspection Committee and the Chaoyang City Discipline Inspection Committee arrived. The meeting this morning was to visit Fengshan County and see how the green work in Fengshan County was done. Nearly 200 people from all levels of the province's counties and cities were walking in Kaoshantun township, observing the local green situation. A black Audi and a Beijing jeep drove over. Three people got out of the Beijing jeep with the provincial capital's Chaoyang license plate. They came to Tang Xiaodong and said something. Then they got into the Beijing jeep together. Some people recognized that it was the car of the Chaoyang City Discipline Inspection Committee, and some people knew that the other black Audi was the car of the Provincial Discipline Inspection Committee.
The people from the Discipline Inspection Committee all had the same problem. They always had a tense face and couldn't see him smile. It was as if something big was going to happen at any time.
Everyone suddenly understood that something had really happened. Taking away the Chaoyang City's director of the Ministry of Agriculture in a Toyota cruiser in front of more than 200 officials was like setting off a heavy bomb in public. The shock wave it triggered was extremely shocking. Seeing it with their own eyes was completely different from the legendary Shuanggui. After the incident, some people said that Zhao Tiewei had specially arranged this. Some people also said that the Provincial Discipline Inspection Committee had heard that someone had just gone to the seedling base of Chaoyang City's Forest Bureau to collect evidence. They were afraid that someone would tip off Tang Xiaodong, afraid that he would escape or collude with them, so they decided to immediately arrest him before they finished their visit.
During lunch, the entire hall was no longer as noisy as yesterday. It was like a place where European nobles and gentlemen ate. Everything was polite and spoke in a low voice. The degree of civilization was extremely high. Many people had cold sweat on their backs, and they could not eat much. According to the head chef, the amount of food for today's lunch buffet was less than one-third of yesterday's. The rest of the food that could be used at night was used on the dining table. The two meals were not as much as yesterday's meal.
In the afternoon, they would be divided into groups according to the city level to discuss how long it would take to reach the standards of Fengshan County. Each county had to have a specific timeline. Within a week, all of them had to telex to the provincial office and ask the top leaders to sign their names.
In the evening, someone noticed that half of the directors were gone from the parking lot in the backyard. Audis, imported SUVs, MPVs, brand new cars, and so on were all gone. The remaining 60 to 70 cars were all ordinary old cars, but none of the directors were missing. They were probably driven away quietly by the drivers.
At seven o'clock in the evening, everyone gathered in the big conference room. Zhao Tiewei gave a speech, which made everyone, including Zhao Tiewei, sleepless the whole night. It was as if an earthquake had broken out in Dongchuan Province, and the epicenter was naturally Zhao Tiewei.
Yesterday morning's meeting had been lively. Laughter and discussion had been incessant. There were plenty of people reading books, newspapers, and playing with their phones. Sixteen of them were late. Tonight's meeting at seven was completely different from yesterday. Ten minutes later, all the bureau chiefs were already in place. They sat there obediently, even holding their thermos cups and drinking water gently. Although there were more than 200 people in the venue, it was very quiet. The personal qualities of the bureau chiefs had improved a lot overnight.
Half of the deputy directors of the provincial office had gone back. This was Zhao Tiewei's intention. There was a long row of people sitting on the leader's platform, and more than half of them were almost 60 years old. After more than two hours of meetings, there would be people who were so sleepy that they had to close their eyes and walk back and forth. It was really uncomfortable to sit there.
At seven o'clock sharp, Zhao Tiewei brought his six deputies up to the podium. Zhao Tiewei could clearly feel that something was wrong at the venue today. It was more serious than he had expected. This was also the effect he wanted. In times of emergency, there had to be some extreme measures.
"Comrades, we had a group discussion this afternoon. There are 11 prefecture-level cities and 166 districts and counties in the province. I have learned about it today. The directors of less than 10 districts and counties have promised to reach the level of greenery in Fengshan County within three years, accounting for 6% of the districts and counties in the province. The others think that it is too difficult and there are too many difficulties. When it comes to funding, I want to say a few more words. The place we are meeting today is Fengshan County. Six years ago, I was the head of Kaoshantun Township here. There were only two old Santana cars that the county leaders used. However, the county director and secretary were sitting in brand new Beijing Jeeps. This bureau chief was called Jin Zimu, and he was also sitting below the stage. Zhao Tiewei's gaze was searching for something. He saw Jin Zimu in the last row and said loudly, What car is Director Jin using now?"
Jin Zimu's eyes were slightly flustered. He slowly stood up, half-bent his legs, and said word by word,"Passat B5."
Zhao Tiewei smiled and continued," When I came to the meeting just now, I saw that more than half of the cars in the courtyard had disappeared. The cars that were good and exceeded the standard were basically gone. This reminds me of a story. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there was a noble named Uncle Zhi. He killed the Fan family, and the Fan family became an empty courtyard. At night, a thief came and saw a high-grade bronze bell in the courtyard. However, the bell was too big for him to carry, so he found a hammer in the courtyard to smash it. The sound was too loud to be discovered. He thought of a good idea. After every hammer, he immediately covered his ears. The effect was good, and he basically couldn't hear anything. The thief started to smash it. This story was changed from deceiving oneself to stealing a bell in the "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals". I believe that everyone here has heard this story. Everyone might be like me, treating this matter as a joke and not believing that it was true.”
Zhao Tiewei was a little thirsty from talking. He took a sip of water and continued,"From today onwards, I think I believe this story. Not only is it true, but it also happened right beside us. This morning, everyone saw that a comrade was detained. At night, the good car in the courtyard disappeared. Isn't this equivalent to covering your eyes? If you can't see, can't others see too? Some of our bureau chiefs used money that they shouldn't have used to buy good cars that were several times more expensive than the standard. They went to desert countries to inspect the green work and even brought their wives with them. They covered their eyes and ears, thinking that others couldn't see or hear. It could be seen that the story of deceiving oneself and stealing a bell had really happened. It was a common thing in the old army to eat empty pay. To what extent? I think as long as we get serious, the truth will be revealed, and the comrades of the Discipline Inspection Committee will be busy. I'm not the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Committee, but the director of the Ministry of Agriculture. My main job is to focus on the province's green work. I have to be responsible for the province's green work. Whoever buys a car with the money used to buy saplings, please turn the car into a sapling. If you eat and drink, you have to spit it out. If you use it for other purposes, you have to return it immediately. From now on, I will lead a group to receive the prefecture-level and city-level directors of the Ministry of Agriculture, while the other four groups will receive the comrades at the district and county levels. Work still had to be done, things still had to be done. Those who had taken a detour in the past quickly returned to their positions. Those who had problems and ideas had to say it clearly. Take out all the money from your small treasury to do some green planting. As long as you didn't take advantage of it personally, the past would be over. I'll only remind you once, don't repeat the story just now. Don't make me look for you. I'm too murderous. Once I find someone, I'm afraid I'll bring bad luck to them.”
Zhao Tiewei's voice was not loud, and his frequency was not fast. It sounded like he was talking about a family matter, but anyone could hear the killing intent in his words, especially the last two sentences. It made people who had a guilty conscience feel cold. Zhao Tiewei was not joking. What happened to Tang Xiaodong in the morning had made many people feel uneasy. After all, it was too easy to investigate the matter of taking more money from the seedling base. The results would be out in half a day.
The venue was eerily quiet. The conference room with more than 200 people seemed to be empty, as if the air had frozen. Suddenly, a county bureau chief stood up. Without saying anything, he fell to the side. A few staff members went over and carried him out.
Everyone sat calmly, but their hearts were in turmoil.
Zhao Tiewei said softly into the microphone, After the meeting, we will start working. I will be staying in room 308.
Less than five minutes after Zhao Tiewei returned to his room, someone knocked on the door. The secretary opened the door seriously and was stunned. The person who came was actually the deputy governor in charge of agriculture, Yan Feng, who was also his father. Zhao Tiewei hurried over and greeted his superior.
Yan Feng sat down and went straight to the point.”
Zhao Tiewei replied," I've dealt with Tang Xiaodong. As long as the others quit and eat more, they'll use it on the green. I'm prepared to let this matter go. I can't overpower everyone at once. If that happens, Dongchuan Province will be in chaos. The big boss wants the green results, not an anti-corruption storm.”
Vice Governor Yan Feng stood up and said to his son seriously,"Learn more. You have to learn to use your brain to think!”He then said to Zhao Tiewei," You're becoming more and more mature. It was right to beat up Tang Xiaodong, and it was your political wisdom to let the people on the boat go. Let these people atone for their crimes and do meritorious deeds. They will do a better job! I'm just passing by to see you. Do what you want!”
Yan Shen hurriedly opened the door. Zhao Tiewei sent Vice Governor Yan Feng out. As soon as he opened the door, he saw a prefecture-level city's director of the bureau standing at the door. When he saw Vice Governor Yan, he was so scared that his face turned pale. He immediately dodged to the side and even forgot to greet him. Yan Feng left.
Zhao Tiewei had just returned to his room when the bureau chief came in again. He was already in his forties. Before he could say anything, tears began to flow down his face."Director Zhao, I made a serious mistake. I have to explain it to you.”
Zhao Tiewei waved his hand and said," Don't say anymore. Just tell me how to focus on greenery. It's not easy to say too much!"”
The chief's expression froze when he heard that. After a few seconds, he reacted and immediately said,"I've calculated the accounts. Our self-raised funds can reach seven to eight million yuan. We'll sell all the cars that exceed the standard, and the entire bureau will only have two of the worn-out office cars. The city can support about this amount. According to what you said, the province's special funds for the next year will be three times that of last year, so we can reach a total of 30 million yuan.”
Zhao Tiewei smiled." How about this? You can clean up your own mess. I'm not very interested in what happened in the past. Do your job well in the future. Do you understand what I mean?”
After the bureau chief left, Zhao Tiewei was still in good spirits. The secretary told him seriously that the other four teams were also busy.
This conversation lasted until midnight. Zhao Tiewei lay on the bed and smoked. He looked at the roof and his mind was spinning at high speed. It was not expected that he would suddenly be promoted to a department-level leader position. Time had passed too quickly. It was a bit too heavy and big to wear the hat of a director. The sudden arrival of Vice Governor Yan Feng was obviously not reassuring. He was the person recommended by him to the big boss. If he made a mess of things and went overboard, it would make Vice Governor Yan Feng anxious. He clearly asked him to catch the greenery. If he started an anti-corruption storm in the whole province, it was obviously not the original intention of the big boss. It would also make his mentor Yan Feng unable to step down. It was really a big tree attracting the wind. When he was the county party secretary, he was able to do whatever he wanted. He commanded calmly. Thinking back to the past nine years, he didn't even have the time to breathe. His eyes opened and he was busy until the lights went out. He woke up earlier than a chicken, slept later than a dog, and did more than a donkey. What was he after? The more he thought about it, the more complicated it became. Suddenly, he thought of his grandfather. It was his grandfather who pushed him onto this path of politics.
The incident of him entering politics in 1995 resurfaced in front of his eyes again. Until now, he still did not understand his grandfather's original thoughts. He had originally wanted him to enter the family business, Huayu Group, and gradually take over. Why did he suddenly change his mind and let him embark on the path of politics? What would I look like if I were in the mall?
Time returned to 1995…
