On the second day after Lee Zheng could not be contacted, his secretary, Lin Fang, also noticed that something was wrong. He immediately reported the situation to the leaders in the county. In the office of the county's Party Secretary, Wang Dongchen, Li Shaotong, Chen Xing, and the rest were gathered. Wang Dongchen looked at Chen Xing. Comrade Chen Xing, even you don't know where Comrade Lee Zheng has been these two days?
Secretary Wang, County Lee Zheng did not contact me. I also don't know where he went. Chen Xing frowned and shook his head. He knew what was going on, but he could not say it out loud. Like the others, he also pretended not to know.
Xiao Lin, when was the last time Lee Zheng contacted you? Wang Dongchen turned his head and looked at Lee Zheng's secretary, Lin Fang.
The last time I saw Mayor Lee was the day before yesterday, when he got off work. At that time, Mayor Lee was the same as usual. He was still talking and laughing. I don't know what happened, but I didn't see him in the office the next day. I couldn't contact him yesterday, and I thought he had something urgent. Until today, I still couldn't get through to him. That's why I quickly reported the situation to the higher-ups.
This is strange. Lee Zheng's family also said that they couldn't contact him. Where did he go? Wang Dongchen slightly frowned. If we still can't contact Lee Zheng today, then we have to report this situation to the city.
Secretary Wang, I don't think it's that serious. Lee Zheng is not a child. It's impossible for him to suddenly disappear. I think he might have gone out to do something urgent. Li Shaotong said casually.
Even if he went out to do something urgent, as a cadre, he should always keep his phone turned on. Otherwise, what if others can't contact him? Wang Dongchen said disapprovingly. He didn't really care about Lee Zheng, but he didn't want to take any responsibility. If a deputy county leader really disappeared, he, the secretary of the county committee, would be criticized more or less.
Li Shaotong smiled and nodded. Seeing that Wang Dongchen was not in a good mood, Li Shaotong did not interrupt. In his heart, he did not care about Lee Zheng's disappearance. He had not seen him for a day or two, there was no need to be so nervous. Maybe Lee Zheng was living somewhere. Li Shaotong thought so, but he did not expect that what he said just now would come true. Lee Zheng was indeed staying somewhere, but that place was the Disciplinary Commission for Discipline Inspection, a place that officials did not want to go the most.
Huang Kunming, the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, instructed the Discipline Inspection Commission to strictly investigate Lee Zheng's case and stop this kind of violation of the law. Therefore, after Lee Zheng was brought to the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission, they not only investigated Lee Zheng's violation of the land bidding, but also whether Lee Zheng had committed any other violations. Huang Kunming was actually planning to dig deeper into Lee Zheng's case to see if he could get more information related to the Guo Power Group. In this way, he would have more bargaining chips to beat Zhao Yiping.
Therefore, Lee Zheng's fall could be said to be extremely innocent. Chen Xing's secret tricks could only be said to be the first push for Lee Zheng's fall. The real cause of Lee Zheng's fall was the secret fight between the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee and the mayor. Lee Zheng was just a pitiful victim. However, it must be said that this fuse was ignited by Chen Xing. Chen Xing ignited it, and the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Huang Kunming, invisibly added fuel to the fire for Chen Xing, which allowed Chen Xing to really achieve his goal. Even Chen Xing himself did not expect that his plan would be so successful from the beginning to the end.
The in-depth investigation by the Discipline Inspection Commission also doomed Lee Zheng. For an official like Lee Zheng, it was impossible for his hands and feet to be clean. As long as there was a serious investigation, all the problems would be exposed. Once Lee Zheng entered the Discipline Inspection Commission, he would never be able to get out. As for Yao Ping, after listening to Feng Yun's introduction of the case, Huang Kunming knew that Yao Ping was the one who reported the case. Huang Kunming commented in front of Feng Yun that Yao Ping was still a cadre who could be saved if he was able to discover the mistake in time and report the mistake.
Huang Kunming's comment set the tone for dealing with Yao Ping's problem. As a cadre who could still be saved, Yao Ping was lucky to escape. After being summoned by the Discipline Inspection Commission for a talk, he was lucky to still be able to get out.
On the third day of Lee Zheng's disappearance, when the county realized that Lee Zheng might really be missing, they were about to report the situation to the city. At this time, the Municipal Party Committee sent a relevant notice to Ximen County, saying that the Discipline Inspection Commission was investigating Lee Zheng's problem.
When Wang Dongchen received the phone call, he was stunned. Some time ago, the County Magistrate Chang Yong was involved in the case of Xing Tiande, the former secretary of Zhou Mingfang, and was taken away by the Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission. This time, Lee Zheng was taken away by the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission. In less than three or four months, the first and second leaders of the Ximen County government had problems one after another, which made Wang Dongchen feel inexplicably pressured.
Wang Dongchen didn't know whether he should be happy or sad. Chang Yong and Lee Zheng were people he didn't get along with before, but both of them had problems. This made Wang Dongchen inevitably form an illusion. Could it be that those who went against him would not end well in the end? Suddenly thinking of something, Wang Dongchen trembled, for fear that he would follow in the footsteps of the two.
After sitting in the office for a while, Wang Dongchen adjusted his mood and immediately asked his secretary to call for a meeting of the Standing Committee. Lee Zheng was being investigated by the Discipline Inspection Commission, and Wang Dongchen had to disclose the situation to several key cadres in the county in advance to unify their statements.
At the standing committee meeting, all the members of the county's standing committee were present. Except for Lee Zheng's empty seat, everyone else was present. Some of them didn't know that Lee Zheng was missing and looked at Lee Zheng's seat curiously. Wang Dongchen glanced at everyone. Lee Zheng's empty seat looked like a corner of the entire oval conference table missing. It was so dazzling. Wang Dongchen's mood was quite complicated. He pulled himself together and said, "Today, I called everyone here because I have something to tell everyone in advance. I want everyone to have a plan in mind, so that we can unify our statements to the outside world."
The meeting room was very quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on Wang Dongchen. Today, Wang Dongchen suddenly called for the Standing Committee meeting, and everyone was still in the dark. They didn't know what it was about. Chen Xing's seat was next to Lee Zheng, and he stared at Wang Dongchen quietly. Chen Xing's heart was as clear as a mirror. Wang Dongchen suddenly called for a meeting because he guessed that it was about Lee Zheng. Lee Zheng had been missing for three days, and the relevant leaders in the city must have informed Wang Dongchen today. Looking at Wang Dongchen's dignified expression, Chen Xing knew that his guess was most likely right.
These days, some people might have heard about Comrade Lee Zheng. Speaking of this, Wang Dongchen realized something and quietly changed his words. Some people might have heard that Lee Zheng had been uncontactable for a few days. Today, the Municipal Party Committee had informed that the Discipline Inspection Commission was investigating Lee Zheng. The meeting room suddenly fell silent. Everyone looked at each other.
Wang Dongchen's words shocked everyone. Most of their reactions were the same as Wang Dongchen's when he first received the notice. This was the second leading cadre of Ximen County to have an accident in a short period of time, and they were both the main leaders of the county government. First, it was Chang Yong, the county magistrate, followed by Li Zheng, the executive deputy county magistrate, who was in charge of the county government. If Han Dong, the director of the County Public Security Bureau, who took the blame and resigned, and Rong Peng, the deputy director of the County Public Security Bureau, who was taken away by the municipal government for investigation, a lot of cadres had an accident in Ximen County during this period, which also led to a bad evaluation of the county officials.
At this time, Chen Xing also pretended to be surprised, and his face was full of shock. Wang Dongchen, who was secretly paying attention to Chen Xing, paused his eyes on Chen Xing for a moment. Soon, he withdrew his eyes and stared at the crowd. Wang Dongchen said sadly, "I believe that when you hear the news, you are as shocked as I am. What happened to Lee Zheng is a wake-up call for us. It is a lesson and a wake-up call for us. Here, I want to repeat what I have said many times before. Everyone here is a cadre of the Party and the state, and a public servant of the people. Everyone should have such awareness and awareness, be down-to-earth, conscientious and conscientious in their work, work for the welfare of the people, and strive to be a young man who works hard for the people without complaint, instead of a bureaucrat who talks in an official's tone and acts like a tyrant."
Wang Dongchen's voice resounded in the meeting room. For the first time, Chen Xing stared at Wang Dongchen seriously, trying to further understand the nature of Wang Dongchen from such a solemn and sacred side. After several contacts with Wang Dongchen, his understanding of Wang Dongchen remained at a vague level.
Lee Zheng was being investigated by the Commission for Discipline Inspection, and the work of the government could not be left unattended. Now, there was no relevant personnel notice from the city. Today, everyone would discuss who would be in charge of the work of the county government for the time being, and wait for the notice from the city. Wang Dongchen looked around at everyone and said in a clear voice.
As soon as Wang Dongchen's voice fell, Li Shaotong, the deputy secretary of the county committee sitting next to him, suddenly became spirited. He straightened his back and stared at the crowd with a pair of fierce eyes. He continued Wang Dongchen's words. Yes, the work of the government could not be left unattended for a day. It would be better for an experienced and prestigious comrade to be in charge of the government.
Li Shaotong seemed to be talking about himself. There were already some cadres who did not like Li Shaotong and scolded him in their hearts for being as thick-skinned as a city wall and shameless. If this sentence was said by someone else, it might not be a big deal. However, when it was said by Li Shaotong, everyone's thoughts were different. Li Shaotong was undoubtedly hinting at himself. Everyone present was not a fool. Who couldn't hear that? Wang Dongchen was the secretary of the county committee, because even if Wang Dongchen was temporarily in charge of the work of the county government, it was impossible for him to be the county magistrate in the end. But Li Shaotong was different. As long as Li Shaotong presided over the work of the county government, the county government would report to the city government. If the city government did not have any doubts and there was no new candidate in the end, Li Shaotong would have a great chance to enter the county government. For Li Shaotong, becoming the county magistrate from a full-time deputy secretary of the county committee was undoubtedly a very important progress in his career. At this moment, Li Shaotong also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make further progress. Li Shaotong glanced at Li Shaotong.
Li Shaotong's experience and prestige had already ruled him out. Among the several deputy magistrates of the county government, except for Li Zheng, who had an accident, he was the only one in the standing committee of the county committee. If he was not qualified to preside over the work of the county government, there was no need to mention the other deputy magistrates. However, he had only been in Ximen for three months. Li Shaotong's experience was actually referring to him in a disguised way. How could Chen Xing not feel it? He sneered in his heart. Chen Xing would not let Li Shaotong get what he wanted so easily. If Li Shaotong finally reaped the fruits of his hard work, he would be the first one who would not be reconciled.
I think Secretary Shaotong is the most suitable person to preside over the work of the county government. In addition to Secretary Wang, Secretary Shaotong has the most experience. In terms of prestige, I believe Secretary Shaotong is also qualified. I think no one is more suitable than Secretary Shaotong for the work of the county government. Cai Lan, the head of the publicity department of the county committee, said.
Li Shaotong raised his head higher and higher like a proud rooster. He glanced at Chen Xing with a little pride on his face. Among the people present, only Chen Xing could compete with him. However, in terms of experience and prestige, Chen Xing was not as good as him. Li Shaotong's words just now were deliberately aimed at Chen Xing. At this moment, there were already people on his side who were waving flags and cheering for him, while Chen Xing was somewhat isolated and helpless in the standing committee.
At this time, many people's eyes gathered on Wang Dongchen. When there was no instruction from the city, Wang Dongchen's opinion was very important. Li Shaotong thought that he also needed Wang Dongchen's support at this time. Li Shaotong was shocked. He secretly glanced at Wang Dongchen next to him and carefully weighed in his heart. Li Shaotong came to the conclusion that Wang Dongchen was more likely to support him than support Chen Xing. During this time, he had been to Wang Dongchen's office many times. He was very attentive, which was more or less to show his attitude to Wang Dongchen.
Yes, Comrade Cai Lan was right. Li Shaotong's experience and prestige were very suitable to take the lead at this time. Compared to Chen Xing, he was indeed more willing to support Li Shaotong. Li Shaotong behaved obediently in front of Wang Dongchen, which made Wang Dongchen very satisfied. Moreover, he had worked with Li Shaotong for a few years. Although Li Shaotong sometimes went against Wang Dongchen, Wang Dongchen knew Li Shaotong very well. No matter how Li Shaotong jumped, he could not jump out of Wang Dongchen's palm. However, Chen Xing was completely different. Wang Dongchen was full of vigilance against this young deputy county magistrate. Deep in his heart, the most taboo thing was that someone could climb over his head. In Xi Men, Wang Dongchen would not allow this kind of situation to happen. Chen Xing's background and origin forced Wang Dongchen to deliberately suppress Chen Xing.
After verbally supporting Li Shaotong, Wang Dongchen did not forget to comfort Chen Xing and said with a smile. However, Comrade Chen Xing's ability was also very outstanding. It was just that he was slightly lacking in experience. He believed that if Comrade Chen Xing were to sharpen himself, he would soon be able to take the lead.
The door of the conference room was pushed open. The deputy director of the county committee office, Jin Qing, hurriedly walked in. First, he walked to the county committee standing committee member and office director Qian Ming and whispered a few words in his ear. Qian Ming's expression was quite shaken. He then hurriedly walked to Wang Dongchen's side and reported the situation to him. Although his voice was not loud, Li Shaotong, who was sitting on the side, could still hear it clearly. It was roughly a notification from the city that the department head of the Municipal Party Committee, Yuan Jiang, was on the way to Xi Men.
Wang Dongchen's expression was dignified. His eyes seemed to have understood something. He unconsciously frowned and looked at everyone. Today's meeting will end here. If there is anything else, I will inform you later.
