The meeting lasted more than three hours. It was mostly Xu Shousong's impromptu speech. He talked about his expertise, such as the need to strictly investigate the cadres and so on. After the meeting, he requested the newspapers to publish the full text of his speech. This caused the reporters to be worried.
Xu Shousong spoke quickly and without logic. It was good enough that he could catch the main points. How could he publish the full text? But the leader had spoken, and no one dared to disobey. After the meeting, the reporters went crazy. They used their memories and cameras to organize the report. After the report was sorted out, the president personally checked and revised it. He then passed it to the Municipal Party Committee for review and finally presented it to Xu Shousong. Who knew that Xu Shousong would fly into a rage and completely misunderstand their intentions. After more than ten revisions, the report was finalized.
The next day, Lu Yiwei received the < Xi Zhou Daily > and laughed. The newspaper wasn't afraid of flattery. They even published a special article, insinuating that the meeting had happened. He threw it on the table and couldn't help but burst out, "Damn it, he's a despicable person!"
The Provincial Government was the one who set the venue, and now, he was the one to blame for everything. It was really infuriating. Since it had happened, he could only deal with it calmly. He wanted to see what tricks Xu Shousong had up his sleeves.
The past few days had been full of worries. Finally, there was something happy. Knowing that Jin Se Company was willing to invest 5 million RMB to support silkworm farming in Black Mountain County, Lu Yiwei held Chen Zhongqi's hand excitedly. "Chief Chen, I thank you on behalf of the 300,000 people in Black Mountain County."
Chen Zhongqi smiled. "Don't thank me. If you want to thank someone, thank yourself."
Hearing this, Lu Yiwei was confused. Chen Zhongqi quickly said. "This is our fate."
Lu Yiwei did not pursue the matter further. "Yes, it is fate. Thank you."
Without further ado, Lu Yiwei organized the first meeting of the leaders. Song Defu was appointed as the deputy leader, and Zhao Jiancheng was appointed as the deputy leader.
The other leaders in the county were puzzled by Lu Yiwei's actions. There was a heated discussion. There were two points of contention. First, the county wouldn't be able to pay salaries next month. What was the point of setting up the Tussah Village? Where would the county get the money?
Secondly, the fact that the higher-ups were investigating Lu Yiwei had caused a huge uproar. Instead of hurriedly using his connections, he was actually able to calmly work. His mental fortitude was not ordinary.
Song Defu and Zhao Jiancheng were flustered by the financial problems of the on-site meeting. How could they be in the mood to do this work? But since the leader had arranged it, they still had to do it. He took the first step with a perfunctory attitude. First, he launched an investigation to see how many people in the county were willing to participate in this work.
Almost every household in the county was willing to raise silkworms, which was unexpected at first. After hearing this news, Lu Yiwei was naturally happy, but it seemed unrealistic to ask every family to subsidize them.
For this, he racked his brains for a few days and came up with a good idea. The form of the household contract responsibility system was extended to silkworm rearing. It would be organized by the village, and the families would be free to raise them. The subsidies would be distributed to the village as a unit, and in the future, the purchase would still be carried out by the village as a unit.
The county could decide how to promote the silkworms, but the actual operation was still up to the township level government. For this reason, Lu Yiwei went from town to town. Every time he went, he would organize a discussion with the village leaders and farmers to understand their thoughts and opinions. This was to provide a basis for the next decision.
This method was very effective, and he received strong support from the people. He even got the nickname of "Secretary Who Approves the People". After hearing this, Lu Yiwei felt warm in his heart. Farmers were like this. If you treated them well, they would definitely be grateful. Some leaders had been working for five to six years, but they had never been to the grassroots level. Who would recognize them if they were representing the people?
At the same time, the development of the Maishan quartz mine was also put on the agenda. Lu Yiwei did not go back on his words. Since he had promised Zhang Dongzi, he would let him develop the mine. But according to the relevant regulations, there was a public bidding, and the winning bidder could develop the mine.
Construction project bidding was originally a good thing. It allowed qualified and capable companies to win the bid for the development. But when it came to China, it was different. It could only mean that the people of China were too smart. They could adapt to everything. There were too many human factors. It was unbelievable.
For example, if a project was to be open for bidding, an announcement would be made in the media of the city level and above. The announcement could be made, but if a leader liked a company, that company would win the bid.
The operation was quite technical. They pretended to entrust a third party, and the company they liked to participate in the bidding. There were dozens of "large enterprises" at the scene, but in fact, they were all hired by the company they liked to accompany them. As long as they did not exceed the minimum bid and failed bids were prevented, everything was under control.
Lu Yiwei used the same method for the Maishan quartz mine. He got Zhang Dongzi to set up a company as soon as possible and bid with legal qualifications. Then he hired some accompanying companies, and everything was settled.
In fact, Lu Yiwei did not want to do this. But the situation in Black Mountain County was not optimistic. Even if foreign investors were willing to invest, they would probably be chased away by the locals after a few years. Looking at the entire Xi City and Black Mountain County, only Zhang Dongzi had the ability to take on such a big business.
Zhang Dongzi was willing to do this after thorough investigation and proof. He was not a fool who could not resist the temptation of others and plunged headfirst into it. He privately took the Maishan quartz raw mine to a special geological research institute for appraisal and hired relevant experts to do another exploration. After knowing its value, he decided to transform his development and do a bigger business.
The conditions that Lu Yiwei offered were also more realistic. 50 million yuan for a 10-year contract, and three years of tax exemption. Zhang Dongzi readily agreed. It was obvious that he had more money than that. Otherwise, he would not have talked about the conditions. In other words, he knew that the development value of the quartz stone far exceeded this amount.
In this way, he could solve his next month's salary and earn tens of millions. Gradually, the voices of doubt became smaller and smaller, and the voices of support grew louder. Lu Yiwei's lost credibility was gradually recovered.
At the same time, he used Zhang Zhiyuan's connections to get Zhou Dake, who he brought from his hometown in Nanyang County, to Pingkang City. The reason why he did this was that he had already smelled the tension. Xu Shousong's tentacles had reached out to Zhou Dake. Although the procedures were legal and the selection procedures were standard, the other party had their eyes on you and would not relent.
Fan Rongkui was even more nervous. Based on his understanding of Xu Shousong, once this kind of person clung to you, it would be difficult for him to relent. Everything that had happened to him was the most direct evidence.
Fan Rongkui secretly sneaked into Black Mountain County and chatted with Lu Yiwei for an entire night. The best conclusion was to leave this troublesome place. However, as his status rose, it was not easy to transfer him, not to mention that he had just been promoted. Lu Yiwei shook his head and rejected it.
Fan Rongkui also had a hard time because of the on-site meeting. Tu Qiang, the secretary general of the Provincial Party Committee, specifically talked to him and told him to be careful in the future. At the same time, a strict audit was conducted on the one million yuan allocated to Black Mountain County for township health. He had hoped to be promoted after the end of SARS, but now it seemed that he was disappointed. Not being implicated was the greatest consolation.
Fan Rongkui had thought that through the on-site meeting, he could increase Lu Yiwei's political capital and improve his reputation. He did not expect this result. Not only did he not help him, but he also brought a chain of problems.
Lu Yiwei, on the other hand, comforted Fan Rongkui. Even if there was no on-site meeting, what would come would come. He already had a vague feeling that the spearhead this time was aimed at Guo Jinzhu and not him. He was just a breakthrough point.
However, he still had a lot of preparation work to do. Dongcheng Coal Mine had not made a move yet, and the accounts of the on-site meeting had not been sorted out …
Everything seemed to be unprepared, and Xu Shousong finally made his move. One night, Lu Yiwei was secretly taken away from the dormitory by a group of people.
Lu Yiwei had been mentally prepared for this, but he did not expect it to come so soon. Since the other party had their eyes on him, this day would come sooner or later.
This was the third time he had been summoned by the Disciplinary Commission for Discipline Inspection. If he included the summons from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, it would be the fourth time. His life experience was too rich, and much more exciting than others. Other people would not be able to walk through the door of the Disciplinary Commission for Discipline Inspection in their lifetime, but he had become a regular.
Since he was a regular, everything was a walk in the park. He did not panic, nor was he afraid. He was calm and collected, and faced the crisis calmly. Black was black, white was white. He was open and aboveboard, and he could pass the test of the organization. What was there to be afraid of?
However, what shocked him was that this time, it was not the Disciplinary Commission for Discipline Inspection, but the Procuratorate.
Among the people, people vividly compared the Disciplinary Commission for Discipline Inspection to the "East Faction," and the Procuratorate to the "West Faction." The Disciplinary Commission for Discipline Inspection generally dealt with cases against party members and cadres who violated the party's discipline. The main method was to explain the problem at a set time and place, which was called "double regulation." The Procuratorate, as the supervision machine of the national law, had astonishing power. If you were lucky enough to be summoned by the Procuratorate, it meant that the other party had already grasped the facts of your crime, and you would likely face the national prosecution.
However, in the process of implementation, because these two departments were too mysterious, people would tremble at the mention of them. Ordinary people naturally did not have to be afraid, but for public officials, it was a nightmare.
Especially the Disciplinary Commission for Discipline Inspection, it was like a curse for leading cadres, close but far away. This department itself had no law enforcement power, but in real life, it could infiltrate any field. It could act as a supervisor, and directly order the mobilization and supervision of the national machinery. It could act as an inspector, and hold any matter and anyone in any department accountable. Some local Disciplinary Commission for Discipline Inspection were also equipped with police cars, handcuffs, and guns, so there was a long debate about "party discipline" or "national law."
Lu Yiwei did not do anything illegal, why was he directly summoned by the Procuratorate?
