Chapter 72
Qi Tongwei, to build new energy vehicles?
"In order to curry favor with the provincial party secretary Sha Ruijin, Li Dakang once told me personally that he wanted me to solve the problem of the industrial land for Dafeng Factory. Of course, I could not agree to this, as it was against regulations and laws."
"It was because of this incident that Li Dakang, the Party Secretary of Jingzhou City, used his position to settle a personal score. He used the problem with the petition window of the Guangming District Petition Office as a pretext to accuse me of being lazy in my duties and transferred me to the Children's Palace as an instructor."
At this point, Sun Liancheng became furious and shouted, "Governor Gao, have you ever seen a deputy director-level instructor at a children's palace?"
"You say I, Sun Liancheng, am lazy in my administration? You say I, Sun Liancheng, am inactive? Governor Gao, Guangming District in Jingzhou City has the highest GDP in the entire city. If I, Sun Liancheng, were lazy in my administration and inactive, would the economy of Guangming District develop on its own?"
At this point, Sun Liancheng became fierce and said bluntly, "Governor Gao, I heard that the issue of the industrial land for Dafeng Factory has been resolved. The province can investigate and see if there were any irregularities in the land approval process!"
"Comrade Liancheng, you have indeed been wronged." Gao Yuliang knew the details of the matter better than anyone else. He comforted him, "I understand what you said. I will investigate thoroughly. Whether it's the Dafeng Factory issue or the issues involving Comrade Chen Yanshi and Comrade Li Dakang, the provincial government will investigate them carefully."
"Regarding Comrade Liancheng's innocence, the provincial government will soon come forward to clarify. The allegations of laziness and inaction are completely unfounded. We will definitely hold the relevant officials accountable."
Looking at Sun Liancheng, whose anger had subsided, Gao Yuliang smiled and said, "I have another purpose in coming here today, which is to invite you, a hero, to attend the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee meeting in three days and to deliver an important speech at the meeting."
"Are you inviting me to a meeting of the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee?"
Sun Liancheng was taken aback, then looked at Gao Yuliang and asked seriously, "So, at the Standing Committee meeting, can I say whatever I want?"
"Of course, Comrade Liancheng can speak his mind freely. This is your right, and no one can interfere."
"Governor Gao, is that old man Chen Yanshi going to participate?"
Gao Yuliang suddenly had a bad feeling. He frowned and said, "Logically speaking, Comrade Chen Yanshi is not qualified to attend the Standing Committee meeting. What's wrong, Comrade Liancheng?"
"Oh……"
Sun Liancheng scoffed and said loudly, "What else? Of course I have some questions to ask him. To be honest, I've put up with him for a long time. I've already been demoted to an instructor at the Jingzhou Children's Palace, and there's no room for further demotion. Of course I have to speak my mind."
Gao Yuliang gave an awkward smile and remained silent.
After saying goodbye to Sun Liancheng and sitting in his own car, Gao Yuliang couldn't help but take off his glasses, pinch the bridge of his nose, and his face was full of worry.
Sun Liancheng is very resentful. Judging from his words, he's planning to make a big scene at the Standing Committee meeting in three days. I wonder who will be unlucky, and whether letting Sun Liancheng attend the Standing Committee meeting was the right or wrong decision.
Just then, Gao Yuliang's phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID, Chen Qinghe, and his pupils immediately contracted.
This Chen Qinghe is the director of the Public Security Bureau of Luzhou City. The reason he has Gao Yuliang's mobile phone number is entirely because that case involved Qi Tongwei. He left the mobile phone number so that it would be convenient to communicate in the future.
After the call connected, Chen Qinghe's voice came from the phone, "Governor Gao, there is something I need to report to you."
"Our people went to Qijia Village to arrest those three criminals. Vice Governor Qi came again and asked me to give him a day to make the arrest. I felt something was wrong and immediately reported it to you."
"So, would you like to make the arrest a day later, or now?"
"One day later?" Gao Yuliang instantly understood. Qi Tongwei was still trying to protect the three prisoners' escape. He was furious and gritted his teeth, shouting, "Qi Tongwei!!!"
After calming himself down, Gao Yuliang ordered, "Director Chen, immediately arrest those three people. Anyone who dares to resist during the arrest will be punished for obstructing official business, without exception!"
……
Two hours later, Qi Tongwei rushed into the Vice Governor's office. He looked at Gao Yuliang, who was sitting in the main seat, and forced a smile: "Teacher, what brings you here?"
"Just got back from the Luzhou City Public Security Bureau, right?"
Gao Yuliang gave Qi Tongwei a cold look, and one sentence from him changed his expression. He hurriedly explained, "That's right, teacher. I was thinking that now that the victim has accepted the settlement, and those three people have left Handong, wouldn't that solve the problem perfectly?"
"A perfect solution? Hah..." Gao Yuliang was so angry he laughed. "Using power to oppress people, is that a perfect solution?"
"Qi Tongwei, I have warned you, but you have repeatedly failed to learn your lesson."
"Then I'm too lazy to waste my breath on you..."
Gao Yuliang looked at Qi Tongwei with a cold expression and ordered, "By tomorrow morning, voluntarily apply for a transfer to the new energy project team, serving as the director of the new energy vehicle factory. You will no longer be in charge of the Provincial Public Security Department!"
"Oh?"
Qi Tongwei was dumbfounded. He, a vice governor and director of the public security department, was being asked to be a factory director and manufacture new energy vehicles? Was this some kind of international joke?
But seeing Gao Yuliang's serious expression, Qi Tongwei forced a smile and said, "Teacher, you must be joking. I'm the vice governor and director of the public security department, responsible for the province's security and stability. How could I possibly manufacture new energy vehicles?"
"Do I look like I'm joking?" Gao Yuliang glanced at Qi Tongwei. "Aren't you in charge of the stability and security work for the entire province? Aren't you in charge of the safety and stability work for the people in your village?"
Knowing that Gao Yuliang was not joking, Qi Tongwei panicked. "Teacher, I have worked in the public security, procuratorate and judiciary for so many years. I finally became the vice governor. It's only been a few days. I really can't be transferred to the new energy vehicle factory as the factory director."
Gao Yuliang didn't give him a chance to explain at all. "If I don't see your application for transfer by tomorrow, I will apply to the higher-ups in my capacity as the head of the new energy vehicle project team and have you transferred directly to the project team."
Gao Yuliang left, leaving Qi Tongwei alone, lost in thought.
At the Provincial Procuratorate's family compound, Sha Ruijin came to visit Chen Yanshi, who had just been discharged from the hospital. When Chen Yanshi learned that Sun Liancheng was going to attend the Standing Committee meeting three days later and deliver an important speech, he immediately became angry.
"I know Sun Liancheng. He was lazy and inactive because he didn't eat, drink, or take any bribes. Li Dakang made him a role model and transferred him to the Children's Palace as an instructor."
Chen Yanshi shook his head and sighed, "I never expected someone like him to have the guts to rush into the fire to save a child. But even so, he doesn't deserve to attend a Standing Committee meeting, does he?"
Sha Ruijin smiled. "This is what Governor Gao requested..."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yanshi immediately perked up. "Gao Yuliang, speaking of Gao Yuliang, when he first started working in the political and legal department, he was clumsy and awkward. I had to teach him a lot, but I never expected that he could now handle things on his own."
Chen Yanshi's heart skipped a beat, and he asked, "Little Jinzi, can I attend the Standing Committee meeting in three days?"
"Yes, of course. The Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee of Handong Province are all waiting to hear you tell the story from back then."
"Okay, okay, I'll talk about it then."
Chen Yanshi laughed heartily. Just thinking about the two top leaders at the Standing Committee meeting—one his junior and the other his old subordinate—made him very happy.
