Governor Du was dumbfounded and stood up at a loss. He didn't know whether he knew or didn't know. He was tongue-tied and couldn't say anything for a long time.
The rest of the tycoons suddenly opened their eyes and looked at each other in disbelief. They didn't expect that Ding Ning came to report a provincial-level cadre in this seemingly ordinary short meeting.
"Uncle Du, just say that you know something, but you don't know the details."
Ding Ning's mosquito-like voice suddenly came into his ears, which startled Governor Du. Instinctively, he answered according to Ding Ning's words, "I know something, but I don't know the details."
Chief No. 1 said expressionlessly, "As the governor of Ninghai, Jiang Zhongze, a member of your team, had such a serious problem, but you didn't report it to your superior in time. Do you think you are a competent governor?"
Governor Du broke out in a cold sweat. He didn't expect that Chief No. 1 would directly make things difficult for him, which made him feel very wronged. "Don't talk about politics! Do you really think I don't want to report it?
But do I dare? Once I report it, I will be accused of being narrow-minded and unable to unite the team members. At that time, who can I reason with? "
"Uncle Du, don't shirk your responsibility. Just take the initiative to admit your mistake."
Ding Ning's voice sounded in his mind again, making him swallow the words that were about to come out of his mouth, and he secretly scolded himself for being so stupid. "The chief is warning me, not trying to dismiss me. We are all old politicians, why can't I understand this?"
Thinking of this, Governor Du immediately calmed down and said in fear and trepidation, "It's my dereliction of duty. I didn't expect that Mayor Jiang would be so bold. Although I have heard some rumors before, I can't suspect a team member without evidence, which is not conducive to the stability and unity of the team. But anyway, I am responsible for this matter, and I am willing to accept any punishment from my superior."
"Well, this matter can't be completely blamed on you. After all, Jiang Zhongze is a team member, and as the leader of the team, you can't casually suspect a comrade. Strictly speaking, if you want to investigate the responsibility, I also have to bear the responsibility for my poor judgment. After all, I approved the appointment and promotion of Jiang Zhongze."
Chief No. 1 gestured for him to sit down and said with self-blame.
Ding Ning was confused and did not know what Chief No.1 was doing. First, he warned Governor Du, and now he started to criticize himself, which made him a little puzzled.
Mr. Feng, who was sitting beside him, seemed to have noticed his confusion. He dipped his hand into the tea and casually wrote a seven on the table. Then, he quickly erased it.
Ding Ning shuddered and subconsciously looked at the seventh big boss. Among the seven big bosses, only the seventh big boss gave him the feeling that it was the most difficult to get close to him, and his attitude toward him had always been lukewarm. Even when he had helped him cure the rheumatoid arthritis that had troubled him for many years, he only said thank you lightly and did not show any intention of being close to him.
Ding Ning had always thought that it was his character, but now when he saw Chief No. 7's ugly face, he suddenly understood. It seemed that Chief No. 7 was Jiang Zhongze's backer.
"Mr. President, why don't you tell us what's going on first? Comrade Jiang Zhongze was indeed recommended by me. Based on my impression of him, this comrade's working ability is still very strong, and his style is rather upright. I wonder if there's any evidence for the crimes you've mentioned previously? If it is true, I am willing to bear the responsibility for my poor judgment of people. "
Chief No. 7 knew that he could no longer keep silent. He had to figure out what was going on so that he could make the appropriate response. If it was just groundless accusations, he would naturally try his best to defend the people of his own faction. If there was real evidence, he must shed tears and cut off all his enemies to put an end to the matter, lest he would be implicated.
No matter which dynasty it was, there would never be a lack of factional disputes in the court. It was not that everyone wanted to sabotage and hinder the development of the country, but that they had different ideas of governance.
"Evidence, there must be."
Chief No. 1 said lightly and turned to look at Xiao Li. "Have the people from the technical department come out with the result?"
"Yes, they have."
Xiao Li stood at attention and answered.
"Okay, then bring it over. Before that, let's take a look at the evidence provided by Xiao Ding."
Chief No. 1 nodded with satisfaction and signaled Secretary Ge to play the video.
Ding Ning's work was replaced by Secretary Ge, so he could only continue to massage Chief No. 2. Listening to Secretary Ge, who acted as the narrator and repeated what he said before without any mistakes, Ding Ning could not help but secretly admire his amazing memory.
It had to be said that the big bosses were really big bosses. They were really good at keeping their composure. Looking at the video evidence, no matter what they thought in their hearts, they all looked calm and indifferent.
Even Chief No. 7, who had already clenched his fists in anger under the table, and his body was slightly trembling, but his face was still as calm as an ancient well.
"Black Fox, are you crazy? Why did you call me?"
"No, no, I'm now at the critical moment of becoming a regular employee. I can't make any mistakes."
"You … Okay … I'll try my best to put in a good word for him in front of the big boss, but don't hold too much hope. The person behind me is a little eccentric and difficult to serve …"
"I'll try my best … Okay … That's it for now. Don't contact me casually in the future. If it's exposed, you know the consequences."
As the technical department enlarged the video evidence after processing, the face of Chief No. 7 became extremely livid. He did not expect that Jiang Zhongze would say that he was eccentric and difficult to serve behind his back, which made him furious.
Of course, the most unbearable thing for him was that Jiang Zhongze, whom he had always relied on as his confidant, actually obeyed the orders of others and played him like a fool. This feeling of losing control made him strangely angry.
Ding Ning also did not expect that the audio after processing would expose something that even he had not discovered before.
The big bosses were all silent. From this short conversation, they could understand that Black Fox seemed to be pressuring Jiang Zhongze and wanted to use his connections to recommend someone to take over. Who was Black Fox? Who was this person?
However, although this conversation exposed a lot of things, it also cleared the injustice of No. 7 big shot. No. 7 big shot was kept in the dark, and he was not a jackal of the same tribe as Jiang Zhongze. This also made everyone secretly heave a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Chief No. 7 did not collude with Jiang Zhongze and was manipulated and manipulated by foreign forces. Otherwise, things would be tricky. Once it was spread, it would definitely be one of the biggest scandals in Shenzhou Country.
"That's what happened. That's all the evidence we have so far. It's not perfect, but it's enough to explain the problem. Everyone, tell me your opinions."
Chief No. 1 didn't question Chief No. 7 aggressively, but said lightly.
"Let me speak first. I have to bear the main responsibility for this matter. I was deceived by Jiang Zhongze, a traitor who is good at disguising himself. I'm willing to accept any punishment from the organization. At the same time, I suggest that we immediately take measures against Jiang Zhongze according to the organization's procedures. We should secretly arrest him and step up the interrogation. We should try to dig out Black Fox's real identity, figure out who these lawbreakers are, and what conspiracy they have against our Shenzhou Country …"
According to the usual practice, after Chief No. 1 explained the situation, Chief No. 2 should speak. But today, Chief No. 7 had to stand up and express his opinion in order to draw a clear line between him and Jiang Zhongze.
"I agree. This matter must be thoroughly investigated. Also, not only must we dig out the identity of this Black Fox, we must also find out who else, like Jiang Zhongze, has been secretly controlled or instigated to betray the country. These corrupt traitors who do not have a firm stand must be immediately cleaned up to uphold the country's laws."
Chief No. 2 did not care about Chief No. 7's preemptive statement and set a general tone for this matter with a serious look.
"I agree with the Prime Minister!"
"Seconded!"
"Seconded!"
…
The rest of the tycoons were excited and expressed their opinions one after another. The meaningless resolution was unanimously passed.
If it were just corrupt officials who had taken bribes, perhaps these tycoons would not be so excited and angry. But this was a senior official who had been infiltrated and controlled by foreign forces. They occupied high positions and brought harm and loss to Shenzhou Country, which could definitely shake the foundation of the country. How could they bear this?
Governor Du was stunned. Even he did not know that Jiang Zhongze had such an identity as a spy. He also did not know how many officials were manipulated by foreign forces like this. Thinking about the terrible consequences if such a puppet could enter the central government and become the decision-maker of Shenzhou Country one day, he shuddered with fear.
"Since it happened in Ninghai, Governor Du, as the governor of Ninghai, is duty-bound. Immediately secretly arrest Jiang Hongbin and others. You must uproot the forces under Jiang Zhongze's command and leave no more trouble. As for manpower, I will inform the National Security Bureau and the military. Now, you immediately go to the Yan Jing Military Region to take a military plane back to Ninghai and get in touch with the Commander of the Garrison Area and Director Mo of the National Security Bureau. Let them cooperate with you in this action."
Chief No. 1 began to issue orders in an orderly manner. After assigning tasks to Governor Du, he turned to look at Chief No. 3 who was in charge of the Independent Commission Against Corruption. "Jiang Zhongze should not have left Yan Jing yet. You are responsible for informing the Independent Commission Against Corruption to immediately impose double punishment on Jiang Zhongze on the spot. The Action Department of the National Security Bureau will cooperate with them and interrogate him overnight. You must find out Black Fox's true identity. Remember, don't leak the news in case of alerting the enemy."
"Yes, I promise to complete the task."
Governor Du straightened up and promised in a loud voice.
"Okay, I will do it now."
Chief No. 3 was also decisive. He stood up and went to personally find the highest person in charge of the Independent Commission Against Corruption to convey the order.
The matter had come to a conclusion, and Ding Ning had achieved his goal. When he stood up and was about to leave, Chief No. 1 waved his hand and said in an indisputable tone, "Little Ding, don't leave in a hurry. Let's have dinner together in the evening. I have something to talk to you about."
"Oh, well, I have something to do now. I will come back in the evening."
Ding Ning was not in the mood to eat. His sister was waiting for him in the office. Today was the last day of the Warriors' Assembly, and he could not not even show up. However, the chief had said so, and he dared not to disrespect him. He had to find an excuse and finish his business before coming back.
"It's already four o 'clock. Okay, you go ahead and do your business. Gather at Yan Jing Hotel at 6: 30. It's just a home-cooked meal, not a state banquet."
Chief No. 2 joked.
"Okay, I will be there on time. Then, chiefs, I will go first."
Ding Ning politely said goodbye to the crowd and left in a hurry under the guidance of the guards.
