Chen Xuejun was so angry that he fought with the other party. However, he was beaten up by the thugs brought by the other party. His face was covered with blood, and he even lost one of his front teeth. If it weren't for his family and neighbors, he might have been beaten half to death. Before the leader left, he threatened the father and son to sign the agreement as soon as possible. If they delayed any longer and delayed the construction progress, they would suffer even more.
After this incident, Chen Xuejun completely lost trust in the government and leaders. He thought that all officials were the same. They were greedy, black-hearted, despicable, shameless, and only cared about money. They would only work together to bully the kind and weak people. All of them deserved to die. He had the idea of taking revenge on the official, so he bought a sharp pig slaughtering knife from the ironware shop in the village. In order to boost his courage, he drank a bottle of white wine during lunch. When he was drunk, he went to find the leader in charge of land acquisition, intending to stab him a few times. However, after looking around, he couldn't find that guy.
He was very disappointed, but he soon vented his anger on the other civil servants. At first, he wanted to go to the entrance of the government to find a target. However, he thought that since he was going to kill people, why not kill the leaders? The leaders must be more abominable and deserved to die. If they didn't allow it, how could the low-level officials be so arrogant? So he changed his destination and went to the Municipal Party Committee to kill people in front of the Municipal Government. It had to be said that he was a little naive. He thought that the people who worked in the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government were all leaders. In fact, many of the officials in these two places were ordinary staff. They were no different from the clerks in the villages and towns.
However, before he set off, Chen Xuejun was careful. He thought that if he went there, he would definitely kill a few people. He couldn't escape the fate of being shot. After all, if he dared to kill people, he had to be prepared to pay with his life. When he bought the knife, he was already mentally prepared. However, he was afraid that people who didn't know the truth would think that he was a homicidal maniac. If that happened, the reputation of the Chen family would be tarnished. After thinking about it, he finally went to an Internet cafe by the roadside and logged into Qingyang City's largest life forum. He posted a post saying that he was going to the Municipal Party Committee to kill someone in front of the Municipal Government. He also emphasized that he was forced by the corrupt officials so that he could prove in the future that he didn't mean to kill, but was forced to do so.
It was also because he posted the post in an internet cafe that the special task force of the Municipal Bureau spent a lot of effort to catch him. For example, they first had to find the IP address of the person who posted the post, then determine the internet cafe based on the IP address. Then, they went to that internet cafe to search for the identity and image of the person who posted the post. In short, it was a lot of twists and turns. If Chen Xuejun had posted the post on his computer at home, the Municipal Bureau would have been able to track him down immediately.
After Chen Xuejun posted the post, he went to the Municipal Government. When he arrived at the entrance, it was two or three in the afternoon. There was no one at the entrance. He saw a few security guards at the entrance and didn't dare to barge in. Instead, he went to the entrance of the Municipal Party Committee. However, at that time, some enthusiastic netizens had found his post and called the police. The Municipal Bureau had also sent police officers to patrol the entrance of the Municipal Party Committee. When he arrived and saw a large number of fully armed police officers, he was so scared that he immediately sobered up. His legs and stomach were weak. How would he dare to kill someone? He pretended to be a passer-by and walked away holding the butcher knife hidden in his pocket.
What happened next was very simple. He had lost the courage to kill, so he could only go back home. As a result, just after dinner, the special task force of the Municipal Bureau rushed to his house and caught him red-handed. He thought that he was an innocent victim, and that he didn't commit murder like the online post said. Therefore, he was very happy when he was taken to the Municipal Bureau for interrogation. He spilled the beans from a bamboo tube, and he thought that he could go home after he explained everything. When the special task force police officers told him that it was illegal, he was very surprised.
After Song Chaoyang understood the inside story, he sighed and said, "A hateful person must have a pitiful side!"
Li Rui nodded and said, "Yes, you can say that he is hateful, but he is indeed very hateful. He was blinded by anger and wanted to use violence to solve the problem … No, even violence can't solve the problem. What's more hateful is that every injustice has its perpetrator and every debt has its debtor. He didn't settle the score with the person who flattened his house, but vented his anger on the innocent people of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government. He is simply stupid to the extreme. If you want to say that he is pitiful, he is indeed pitiful. In the land expropriation incident, he is indeed a victim. What's more tragic is that he couldn't find a way to solve the problem, so he took the risk out of anger …"
Song Chaoyang snorted and said, "The district, subdistrict, village, three levels of government, no one can make a decision for him. Has Gaokai District's governance deteriorated to such an extent?"
Li Rui explained, "That shouldn't be the case. The Gaokai District's Letter Office and the District Government received his appeal and will definitely accept it. It's just that the higher-ups don't know the situation at the grassroots level, so it will take some time to investigate and deal with it. Chen Xuejun thought that they were just brushing him off, but in fact, they wronged those two units. However, since the subdistrict and village governments can't make a decision for him, there might be something fishy going on. It's very likely that some of the functional cadres have been bribed. "
Song Chaoyang frowned and said with a strange expression, "Speaking of which, I don't understand. Why is it that when I've repeatedly emphasized on the issue of party discipline, made a private visit, punished the chicken to warn the monkey, and launched a rectification movement, there are still so many people at the grassroots level who turn a deaf ear to my warnings and do what they're used to doing? In Chen Xuejun's case, we can at least see that there are problems of inaction and dereliction of duty in some departments. There are also major ideological problems of some cadres being rude, not following orders, deceiving their superiors and subordinates, and oppressing the people. But what is the cause of these problems? "
This question was very complicated, and Li Rui couldn't think of a standard answer in such a short time. He said vaguely, "I can only say that it has something to do with the environment."
Song Chaoyang frowned and thought hard for a long time but still couldn't think of a reason. In the end, he sighed bitterly and said, "Whatever you say is false. The real reason lies in the people. As long as we use the right people, there won't always be such problems. Now, these problems still appear frequently, which only shows that we're not using the right people. But even though I'm the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, I can't personally select the cadres for every position. Nominally, I can only ensure that the cadres at the divisional level don't have too many problems, but in reality, I don't know whether they have problems or not. And they can't guarantee that the people they use are not problems. So, down the hierarchy, to the bottom, there are corrupt officials like in Chen Xuejun's case. Sigh, speaking of which, I'm also very troubled. It seems that no matter what I do, I can't solve this problem. "
Li Rui comforted him and said, "Then let's not think about such a complicated problem for now. Let's deal with Chen Xuejun's case first and use it to warn the other leaders. It will more or less have a deterrent effect."
Song Chaoyang ignored him and looked up at the ceiling. He said with a face full of expectation, "Sometimes I think that it would be great if we could invent a cloning machine that can clone a person's qualities, temperament, and talents. In that case, we can find a model leader like Jiao Yulu and use him as the prototype. Then, we can clone millions of people and put those clones in grassroots positions all over the country. I think that at that time, there won't be any more incidents like Chen Xuejun's, right?"
Li Rui smiled and said, "Of course. But based on your dream, we can infer that if all of our leaders can be 'selfless', there won't be any problems. As for the harmonious society and communism, they can definitely be realized under this premise."
Song Chaoyang deeply agreed and said, "Selfless is easier said than done! As long as one is human, who isn't selfish? Therefore, in this aspect, we have to learn from the older generation of proletarian revolutionaries. They are the ones who are truly selfless. "
After saying all this, he thought of the hateful and pitiful Chen Xuejun and said, "Call Mayor Gao Kai and tell him that it's my idea. Tell him to find out the truth about Chen Xuejun's shed being razed to the ground within three days and give Chen Xuejun justice. After three days, come to the office and report to me. "
Li Rui nodded and went to his desk in the outer room. He found the phone book and found the office number of Mayor Gao Kai, Wang Hao, and dialed it. After the call was connected, he told him Song Chaoyang's instructions.
Wang Hao didn't know anything. After listening to him, it was like listening to an African native for a long time. He didn't understand what was going on and said, "Director Li, Director Li, don't be in such a hurry to hang up. Tell me more in detail. Who is this Chen Xuejun? What happened to his family? I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. Haha … I've never heard of such a person. How did he alert the Secretary? "
Li Rui had no choice but to briefly tell him the whole story of Chen Xuejun.
