In the afternoon, Chen Xing went to Nangang District with Xiao Yuanqing and his secretary, Deng Qingming. Over the past few days, Chen Xing had paid great attention to Song Yi's death and the City Government's investment fair. Chen Xing did not have time to visit Nangang District again. Furthermore, Xiao Yuanqing had suggested Chen Xing to wait for a few days to calm down after Song Yi died in the Public Security Bureau. Chen Xing felt what Xiao Yuanqing said made sense. That's why he did not visit Nangang District for the past few days. Other than asking the Nangang District Government to solve the pollution problem in Big Head Village and come up with a feasible solution, Chen Xing decided to visit Nangang District after the investment fair closed in the morning.
Xiao Yuanqing and Chen Xing sat in the back seat, while Deng Qingming sat in the front passenger seat. This was Deng Qingming's last trip with Chen Xing. Deng Qingming would go to his new post tomorrow.
Looking at the scenery outside the window, Deng Qingming felt upset. He had worked for Chen Xing for more than 20 days, but he failed to secure his position as Chen Xing's secretary. As the first secretary of the Municipal Government for more than half a month, he had to leave with his tail between his legs. Glory and status came and went quickly.
Deng Qingming glanced at Chen Xing through the rearview mirror and had mixed feelings. Chen Xing treated him well and arranged a good position for him. Deng Qingming was very kind to him. He arranged a good position for him and made him the section chief of the Local Taxation Bureau. He did not hold any grudge against Chen Xing. If he was in Chen Xing's shoes, he would not let a person he did not trust stay by his side.
When the car was about to reach Big Head Village, it suddenly stopped. The driver, Li Yong, turned to Chen Xing and said, "Mayor Chen, the road ahead seems to be blocked."
Huh? Chen Xing looked ahead in confusion. The road leading to Big Head Village was only about 100 meters away. Chen Xing sat in the car and looked ahead. He could vaguely see many people in police uniforms blocking the road.
He got out of the car and had a look. Chen Xing opened the car door and got out. Because of the road ahead, the car could not move forward.
Xiao Yuanqing, Deng Qingming, and the others quickly followed Chen Xing out of the car. When they walked to the front, they could see a large group of riot police blocking the entrance of the village road. A large group of villagers were confronting the special police.
Chen Xing's face darkened as he furrowed his brows. As he approached, the two riot police officers at the very back were also walking in Chen Xing's direction. However, they were only a few meters away from the rest of the group. One of them pulled out a pack of cigarettes while the other picked one up in a practiced manner. The two of them lit up their cigarettes and squatted on a stone block by the side of the road, puffing out clouds of smoke.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xing frowned again. He walked in front of the two expressionlessly and asked, "Comrade, what happened here?
What does it have to do with you? " One of the dark-skinned special police lifted his eyelids and glanced at Chen Xing. He replied impatiently.
Xiao Yuanqing, who was standing behind Chen Xing, saw that the special police was speaking to Chen Xing in such a rude manner. His face darkened and he was about to step forward to reprimand him, but he was stopped by a look from Chen Xing.
I say, where are you guys from? You don't look like you're from Big Head Village. The other special police's attitude was slightly better. As he spoke, he took a big puff of smoke towards Chen Xing and the others.
We're indeed not from Big Head Village. We just drove here and saw that there was a situation here, so we asked out of curiosity. Chen Xing said calmly.
I don't think so either. Look at you guys, you don't look like you're from the countryside. The special police seemed to be quite proud of his judgment. He smiled and pointed to the front. Didn't you see that the unruly people from Big Head Village wanted to cause trouble in the city again? The district had given a strict order to stop these villagers.
The villagers wanted to cause trouble in the city? Chen Xing frowned. What made you think that the villagers wanted to cause trouble in the city?
Hey, don't you know? These unruly people blocked the gate of the Municipal Government a few days ago. The leaders of the city were furious. I heard that the leaders of the district were severely criticized. Now the district is keeping a close eye on the people from Big Head Village. Today, when they found out that the people from Big Head Village wanted to cause trouble in the city again, the district immediately transferred us here. The special police's mouth was like an open gate. He talked to Chen Xing carelessly. Although the people in front were confronting each other nervously, the people behind them were actually fine. It was just that the special police who blocked the road were having a hard time. The people behind them were just waving flags and shouting battle cries.
Lao Guo, why are you so talkative? Why are you talking to people you don't know? The first special police who had been rude said to his partner.
Isn't this boring? Moreover, it's not a national secret. Why can't I say it? The special police who had spoken didn't take it seriously. He turned to Chen Xing and the others. What are you guys doing? Working in the petrochemical industry area?
Chen Xing's face was livid. He had asked the Nangang District Government to discuss the solution to the pollution in Big Head Village. At the same time, he had to be responsible for the villagers who had cancer because of the petrochemical pollution. He had to come up with a solution as soon as possible. However, the Nangang District Government had used violent means to treat the villagers. They had even deprived the villagers of the basic right to petition.
Hey, why are you leaving? The special police saw that Chen Xing and the others didn't reply and had already walked forward. He curled his lips in confusion.
Yuanqing, don't you think people like us who sit in the office all day are the easiest to be fooled? Chen Xing said with a sullen face.
Maybe the Nangang District Government was also considering the overall situation. They were afraid that the villagers would gather in the city again and cause a negative impact, so they had no choice but to do this. Xiao Yuanqing replied to Chen Xing in a low voice. He knew that Chen Xing was angry, so he didn't dare to add fuel to the fire. Although he couldn't stand the Nangang District Government's actions, Xiao Yuanqing still tried to stand on their side and say something fair.
Sigh, they had no choice. It's just nonsense. Chen Xing scolded him angrily.
Xiao Yuanqing was shocked by Chen Xing's words and quickly shut his mouth. He didn't have any relationship with the main leaders of the Nangang District Government. There was no need to offend Chen Xing for those people. Chen Xing had made such a big fuss, so it was better for him not to say anything.
Tsk, why does that guy look so familiar? After Chen Xing and the others left, the special police who was called Lao Guo by the black-faced man said to him. He stared at Chen Xing's back with a puzzled look on his face. Why do I feel like I've seen him somewhere before?
Lao Guo, I think you've drunk too much at noon. The black-faced man sneered.
By the way, I remember that I've seen the new Mayor Chen on TV. It seems to be him. Lao Guo slapped his thigh and cried out in surprise.
F * ck, I think you'd better sober up first. Why don't you say it's the governor? The black-faced man scolded him with a smile. We can meet a mayor on the road. Do you think those leaders have nothing better to do? Why would they come to this place? The air is so stinky that I can't stand it anymore. It's impossible for those leaders to come. Don't you see that none of the district leaders have shown up? If he were the mayor, he would have come with a large group of people.
Lao Guo poked the black-faced man disapprovingly and murmured in a low voice. Lao He, the more I look at him, the more I feel he's like the Mayor Chen I've seen on TV. Take it easy and watch your mouth. Don't offend him too much. Otherwise, if he's really the mayor, you'll be doomed.
Lao Guo, I think you're really drunk. Did your brother-in-law get you drunk at noon? Are you still in a daze? The black-faced man didn't believe him. He looked at Chen Xing and shook his head.
Go away! I've only had two cups. Lao Guo scolded him.
Chen Xing could no longer hear the conversation between the two. He walked forward with a sullen face. There were two police cars in the middle of the intersection, and a team of explosion-proof special police stood in a row, confronting the villagers. Obviously, the villagers did not dare to offend these armed people. They only dared to curse at them, but they were unwilling to leave.
Chen Xing could clearly hear the villagers scolding the government for being untrustworthy. As for the special police standing in the front, they didn't do anything except block the intersection. Facing the villagers' scolding, the special police didn't do anything drastic. This might be the only thing that Chen Xing could feel relieved about. But even so, Chen Xing couldn't hide his anger. Chen Xing couldn't agree with what the Nangang District did.
Chen Xing walked to a police car on the side of the intersection. A middle-aged policeman was leaning against the car and smoking. He was probably the leader of this team of anti-riot police. Chen Xing glanced at the man beside him. This middle-aged policeman had the highest rank among all the people present. He was a Third Grade Supervisor.
You're in charge here?
Yes, what's wrong? Hearing the question coming from behind, the middle-aged policeman turned around and looked at Chen Xing curiously. Chen Xing looked familiar, but he couldn't figure out who he was. His voice sounded much calmer. Although Chen Xing looked unfriendly, which made him a little unhappy, he didn't take it seriously.
Call all the leaders of your district committee and district government here. Such a big thing happened here, but none of the district leaders came. What could be more important than this?
Ah. The middle-aged policeman was stunned at first. Then he stared hard at Chen Xing. Chen Xing looked familiar, but he couldn't figure out who he was. He murmured in his heart. The middle-aged policeman said, "Who are you?
It doesn't matter who I am. Now you just need to call the leaders of your district here. " Chen Xing put on a straight face.
Although he couldn't suppress his unhappiness, the middle-aged policeman didn't lose his temper. He looked at Chen Xing doubtfully and said coldly, "You can call the leaders of the district at will? Do you think you're qualified?
Do you think I'm qualified? " Chen Xing sneered as he pulled out his work pass and tossed it at the other party. It was not hard to imagine how furious Chen Xing was right now for him to do something like this.
Chen Xing's behavior was undoubtedly seen as a blatant provocation by the middle-aged policeman. He almost flew into a rage. Looking at the permit thrown on the hood of the police car, the middle-aged policeman almost grabbed it and threw it at Chen Xing, but he restrained himself in the end. Chen Xing's posture looked a little unusual. Driven by curiosity, the middle-aged policeman decided to see what was going on first.
With a little doubt, he picked up Chen Xing's work permit. The words "Municipal Government" on the cover made the middle-aged policeman's eyelids twitch. The little dissatisfaction in his heart was also suppressed, and his curiosity grew stronger. With a little nervousness and extreme urgency, he quickly opened Chen Xing's work permit. When he saw the name and position written Chen Xing and the mayor, the middle-aged policeman's pupils contracted violently. He looked shocked and looked at Chen Xing in disbelief. The small ordinary work permit in his hand suddenly made him feel as if it was a thousand pounds heavy, and he couldn't hold it steadily.
Duan Zhengkun, the captain of the Nangang District Public Security Brigade, reported to the mayor. After his mind went blank for a moment, the middle-aged policeman finally snapped out of it. He stood at attention almost reflexively. At this moment, he did not even have the thought of doubting the authenticity of Chen Xing's identity. Instead, he did it out of instinct.
After saluting, Duan Zhengkun respectfully held the work permit in front of Chen Xing with both hands and looked at Chen Xing anxiously. It was not until Chen Xing took back the work permit with a blank expression that Duan Zhengkun breathed a sigh of relief.
Where are the leaders of your bureau? And the leaders of the district and district governments? Chen Xing still didn't look good.
Mayor Chen, the leaders of the district seemed to be holding a meeting to discuss how to solve the demands of the villagers of Big Head Village. Duan Zhengkun answered cautiously with the same look in his eyes. Before he knew the identity of Chen Xing, Duan Zhengkun didn't feel anything. But now, he felt uncomfortable all over. Chen Xing's eyes seemed to be able to pierce people.
Was it necessary to treat the villagers in such a way to solve the demands of the villagers? Chen Xing pointed at the situation at the scene.
Mayor Chen, I'm just obeying the instructions of my superiors. Duan Zhengkun replied in a low voice.
Call the leaders of your bureau and district immediately and ask them to come to the scene in ten minutes. Chen Xing stared at Duan Zhengkun and said.
Mayor Chen, this … Duan Zhengkun really wanted to bang his head against the wall and die. If he were to speak to the leaders of the police station and the district like this, he would be hated by the leaders. From the district to here, they had to rush all the way without caring about the traffic lights, and it only took them ten minutes to arrive. The leaders of the district had to scramble into their cars and rush all the way here before they could make it in time.
Why, you don't dare to make this call? Chen Xing sneered and glanced at him. I'll start the countdown now. If they are a few minutes late, half of the responsibility will be on your head.
Call, I'll call immediately. Duan Zhengkun was scared out of his wits. He took out his phone and called the bureau chief, Huang Shixing.
In the small conference room of the Nangang District Committee, several key leaders of the district and district government were holding a meeting to discuss the matter of Big Head Village. Last time, the villagers of Big Head Village gathered a crowd to surround the Municipal Government, causing the leaders of the district and district government to be scared out of their wits. At that time, although they hurriedly sent people to bring the villagers back by force, they still couldn't avoid being reprimanded by their superiors. In addition, a few days ago, when Chen Xing came down, he was almost blocked by the villagers. The leaders of the district government didn't dare to look down on them anymore. They always sent people to monitor the movements of Big Head Village. Today, when they found that the villagers of Big Head Village were acting strangely, the riot police were quickly transferred over.
At this moment, the leaders of the district government were discussing how to solve the problem of Big Head Village. Chen Xing's instructions had already been passed down. The district government was required to properly deal with the pollution of Big Head Village and its surrounding villages. At the same time, they had to come up with practical measures to help the villagers who already had cancer. The villagers' income was not high. If the government didn't care about this disease, it was equivalent to speeding up the death of the cancer patients.
The standing committee of the district government, the secretary of the district political and legal committee, and the bureau chief of the public security bureau, Huang Shixing, were also sitting in the conference room. Huang Shixing actually didn't agree with the district government's decision to quickly transfer the riot police over when the villagers of Big Head Village gathered again. However, the secretary of the district committee, Zhao Shiming, and the district head, Chen Ronggui, both supported the transfer of the riot police over, so Huang Shixing could only agree.
Although Huang Shixing is dissatisfied with the district government's actions, he can't express it. Although he is a member of the district's Standing Committee, other than his influence, he can't interfere in other matters. He has to attend the meeting because he is still a member of the district's Standing Committee.
Huang Shixing was dissatisfied, but it was not convenient for him to voice his dissatisfaction, so he simply kept his mouth shut at the meeting. He watched coldly from the sidelines as the others showed their faces. Several members of the standing committee were already complaining that the district finance did not have enough money. How could they take care of so many villagers suffering from cancer? As for solving the pollution problem, it was even worse. The petrochemical industry district was now valued by both the provincial and municipal governments. The enterprises in the petrochemical industry were all large enterprises, and the district treated them like the God of Wealth. No one dared to offend them. It was not that the district had not received reports of some enterprises seriously failing to meet the pollution standards. However, they had turned a blind eye to it and allowed the pollution to continue.
