On the second day after the incident, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection received an anonymous courier with two hard disks in it. One of them recorded the video of the customers fleeing in panic after the fire in the Green Water Mountain Club.
The other one recorded most of the members' information and video materials, which pushed the "Fight the Tiger" to the climax.
After receiving the report, the leaders of the Central Agency were furious and held an emergency meeting overnight to discuss how to deal with this major case. Finally, they reached a decision to take advantage of this opportunity to carry out the "anti-corruption" action in advance. No matter who was involved, they would be severely punished.
The Central Agency made a decision, and the anti-corruption action was launched in advance. The matter became more and more serious. Ren Nanxiang, the person in charge of the Green Water Mountain Club on the surface, could not stand the interrogation and finally confessed the behind-the-scenes boss, Zhao Zifeng.
Now, the Zhao Family had used a lot of connections to get Zhao Zifeng out, but because of this case, the date of Zhao Zifeng's release became far away. The Zhao Family also became a coward in the teeth of the storm. They did not dare to speak for Zhao Zifeng anymore, but they had to stand up righteously and angrily rebuke Zhao Zifeng for his wrongdoings. It was simply discrediting the Zhao Family. They announced that Zhao Zifeng was expelled from the family, and what he did had nothing to do with the Zhao Family.
At the beginning of the anti-corruption campaign, no one paid attention to the investigation of Ding Ning's extortion and blackmail except for Old Master Wang. No matter how furious he was, Deputy Minister Yang could only smile bitterly and helplessly and tell him that Ding Ning had no time to commit the crime at all. That night, he helped the patients in Ninghai Sanatorium operate on them and did not leave all night.
Mayor Du had a good relationship with Ding Ning. If Mayor Du's guarantee was not credible, then Commander Guan and his daughter, Dean Qin, Chief Xiao, and the medical staff in the sanatorium could be vouched for by them, and even Old Master Wang had to believe them. Moreover, Dean Qin also provided the surveillance video of the sanatorium that night as proof that Ding Ning did not leave the sanatorium at all.
Master Wang was dumbfounded. "Did Wang Haiqing see a ghost?" He called Wang Haiqing to interrogate him carefully and asked him if the person he saw that night was Ding Ning. Wang Haiqing promised that it was definitely him, but he could not provide any evidence to prove it, which made Old Master Wang feel very strange and could not figure out what was going on.
But soon, he didn't have time to worry about this matter. His trouble came, because the Longteng Group directly complained to the Ministry of Commerce.
As an American enterprise, Longteng Group's local investment was a good thing for the local government to attract foreign investment, drive the development of the local economy, and increase the employment of local residents. However, a leader of the local government publicly breached the contract after Longteng Group had invested and settled down. He made things difficult for the branch of Longteng Group in every possible way and often stopped the branch from investing. Such an investment environment was worrisome. If the government could not give a reasonable explanation and compensate for the losses, Longteng Group would take the 13 local governments to court, even if it would be a life-and-death struggle.
Minister Wei of the Ministry of Commerce immediately reported this terrible complaint to the Central Agency. The big shots of the Central Agency were angry. After learning the situation, they directly sent a working group to secretly go to the city to conduct an on-site investigation. The result of the investigation was obvious. The 13 subsidiaries of Longteng Group did not violate any rules, and the local government deliberately made things difficult for them.
After the big shots of the Central Agency got the report of the real situation, they directly sent an investigation team formed by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection to intervene in the investigation. They held the leaders of the 13 cities accountable and asked them to give an explanation.
In the end, some people could not stand the investigation and admitted that they deliberately suppressed Longteng Group according to the instructions of some people from above. The investigators peeled off the silk and followed the clues. According to their confession, they investigated and talked step by step. In the end, all the clues pointed to Old Master Wang.
Even the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection did not dare to investigate the deputy state leader at will, so they rushed back to Yan Jing to make a detailed report to the Central Agency.
After hearing the report, the big shots of the Central Agency were so angry that water could drip from their faces. They asked Old Master Wang to come to Zhongnanhai overnight to be questioned.
No one knew what the big shots said in Zhongnanhai that night, but the next day, Old Master Wang submitted his resignation and retired early on the grounds of poor health.
What Old Master Wang did not know was that the day before he resigned, Ding Ning secretly entered Zhongnanhai under the excuse of sending tea, had a secret meeting with the No. 2 Chief, and provided a video of Wang Haiqing and Zheng Minzhe's debauchery and secret discussion in Green Mountain.
Old Master Wang's resignation was just the beginning, and things did not end there. On the day he resigned, Wang Haiqing was secretly taken away by the National Security Department for questioning and was released after two and a half hours. After he came out, Wang Haiqing suddenly fell ill and was admitted to the hospital. His life was in danger. Old Master Wang looked for famous doctors everywhere, but he could do nothing about it. He could only sell everything he had to raise 10 billion yuan and begged Ding Ning to treat him.
Ding Ning had a broad mind. After accepting the medical fee of 10 billion yuan, he treated Wang Haiqing. After he cured Wang Haiqing, he generously said that he would give Old Master Wang a big gift. He could help Wang Haiqing use artificial insemination to leave a descendant for the Wang family, but the price was that Wang Haiqing would be impotent from then on.
Between his grandson's sexual happiness and the continuation of the family's bloodline, Old Master Wang did not hesitate to choose the latter. Although Wang Haiqing was very painful, he finally showed the bearing that a descendant of the Wang family should have and expressed his sincere gratitude to Ding Ning!
In this series of combinations, only a few people who stood at the peak of power knew that on the day Old Master Wang resigned, the No. 1 Chief visited Old Master Qiao in person. No one knew what they talked about in the study.
But after the No. 1 Chief left, Old Master Qiao immediately summoned the descendants of the Qiao family to hold a family meeting. At the family meeting, three descendants of the Qiao family with high status were executed according to the family rules. They were deprived of their right to discuss family affairs and were sent overseas to be responsible for the family's overseas affairs. Then, Qiao Yuhan, who was responsible for the family affairs overseas all year round, was transferred back to the country to be responsible for the management of the Qiao family's domestic industry.
It had been many years since Old Man Qiao had unleashed such a thunderous rage. Everyone in the Qiao Family had already forgotten about his iron-blooded killing aura. Looking at the three Qiao Family disciples who were beaten until their flesh was torn and blood was dripping, everyone kept quiet out of fear and lowered their heads in reverence.
But many people were sensitive enough to smell something. Qiao Yuhan, who had always been ignored because he was an illegitimate child, was going to rise and was very likely to be the next head of the Qiao family.
Although they did not know why Old Master Qiao suddenly used Qiao Yuhan, it did not prevent them from changing their ways and actively approaching him. After all, in the Qiao family, although Old Master Qiao had not been in charge for many years, his words carried enormous weight, and no one dared to go against his will. Even the current head of the family, Qiao Zhengrong, did not have this power.
Only Qiao Yuhan had mixed feelings. He knew very well that it was all because of one person that he could return to the family and become the future head of the family, the young man who had beaten him violently because of a misunderstanding and was humiliated by him in every way.
How long had it been? The young man, who was looked down upon by him and thought that he was not worthy of his daughter all his life, only took more than one year to have the terrible influence to decide the successor of the aristocratic family. Ordinary people might not know the inside story, but as Qiao Qiao's father, how could he not know that the boy of the Bai family succeeded in getting the position with the help of Ding Ning?
This made his mood complicated and difficult to understand. Looking at the envy in the eyes of the people of the Qiao family, a sentence involuntarily came to his mind. "It is better to bully a white-bearded man than to bully a poor young man. One day, the dragon will wear the phoenix, and one will not believe that one's trousers will wear holes all the time."
Even Ding Ning himself did not find that unconsciously, he had grown to the point where he could easily control the direction of the country. In this round of secret confrontation with the deputy state-level big shots, he finally won a comprehensive victory.
But this storm was not over, and it was still brewing a bigger storm. The big shots of the Central Agency unified their thoughts and took this opportunity to resolutely carry out the "anti-corruption and anti-mafia" action in advance to clear the obstacles for the smooth implementation of the next step of the reform.
With the Central Agency's document "Strictly Carrying out the Special Anti-Corruption and Anti-Mafia Action" issued, the government agencies and departments of all provinces and cities across the country launched a vigorous campaign to learn the spirit of the document, and the implementation of the spirit of the document became one of the most important tasks. The disciplinary supervision departments at all levels announced the reporting hotlines and welcomed the supervision and reporting of the public.
The news spread, and the whole country was in an uproar. The people cheered and applauded, and actively implemented the right of supervision and reporting; the officials with a clear conscience carried out self-examination and self-correction activities, and if there were mistakes, they would correct them, and if there were mistakes, they would be encouraged; the officials with sh * t on their butts were as guilty as grasshoppers after autumn, and they were in a constant state of anxiety. Good and evil would be rewarded in the end, and it was not that they would not be punished, but that the time had not come yet!
In this solemn atmosphere where everyone was in danger, there were still many people who wrongly estimated the determination of the Central Agency this time, and disapprovingly went their own way, thinking that there were policies and countermeasures. Such a situation was just the aftermath caused by the corruption case of Clear Water Green Mountain, and it would naturally calm down after a period of time, which led to the ruin of their future and even their lives.
In Ninghai, Secretary Du responded to the call of the Central Agency and took the lead in firing the first shot of the anti-corruption campaign. Taking the major traffic accident as an opportunity, he turned passivity into initiative. After Hu Quan was turned into a stained witness, he secretly arrested Gao Meiling, the key figure. Through overnight surprise interrogation, the case soon made a major breakthrough.
With the arrest of Zhang Changshun, the deputy head of Haidong District, Chen Aiguo, Zhao Mingkai, Chen Kaiyang, Sun Zhiming, the office director of Haidong District, and Wang Bailang, the director of Bailong Town Police Station in Haidong District, a huge network woven by interest entanglements slowly revealed the tip of the iceberg.
The members of the task force worked overtime to visit, investigate, and interrogate. Under the bombardment of taking turns to rest, these officials who refused to open their mouths were exhausted and finally collapsed their mental defense line. One after another, they began to confess that they colluded with officials and gangsters, and that they had complicated interest entanglements with local evil forces.
Later, the joint investigation team composed of the military and police arrested the people involved in the case and captured the Eastern Gang and Evil Tiger Hall, the underground evil forces that had been entrenched in Haidong District all year round. For a while, the Ninghai detention center was overcrowded.
In the name of the company, these two gangs relied on their connections in the court to commit crimes in Haidong District all year round. They bullied the market, preyed on the people, and treated human lives as grass. In order to compete for development projects and the construction market, there had been many vicious cases of gunfights, which had a very bad social impact. However, some officials who took bribes used their power to suppress it.
Tasting the sweetness of the protection of power, these lawless evil forces became more and more aggressive. They raped, robbed, killed, lent money, forced people to pay off their debts with their wives and daughters, and organized women to sell themselves.
