The Political Security Bureau's poor performance this time will inevitably lead to a decline in the trust of the elders in them. At this time, the issue of raising black materials is very likely to be responded to, and a special investigation will be launched.
Shan Liang thought this was indeed a good opportunity!
As for the issue of black materials, he was sure that there was something to be gained. Can the Political Security Bureau still be called the Political Security Bureau if it does not engage in dirty materials? Shan Liang must have the most dirty stuff. Maybe there is even a phone recording of him having sex with Shan Huixiang.
Zhao Manxiong and his minions, just wait until you go to the Agricultural Committee to dig out the shit. Dan Liang imagined with malicious pleasure that he rushed into the "dark den" of the Political Security Bureau surrounded by revolutionary veterans. He kicked open the door of Zhao Manxiong's office and ordered him to hand over the key to the safe. The scene where the revisionists tremblingly handed over the keys and lowered their heads in the excitement of the revolutionary veterans... He felt a little intoxicated.
But Dan Liang is no longer the passionate young man in the cafe. He restrained his movements and took a deep breath on his cigar: "What then?"
"If you like your job, I can help you get to the next level. If you don't like your job, I can think of a way to change to which department..."
Shan Liang laughed loudly: "Speaker Qian, you are kidding me. Administrative positions mean nothing to me. As long as I am willing to be a pioneer, the general manager of Guangdong Telecom is not yet available. In the future, it will definitely be Telecom Corporation. Board members. Let’s put it this way, isn’t your committee short of a chair or two or something?”
Qian Shuiting thought that his appetite was not small. He pondered for a moment and said: "As long as the new system can be established, the Zhai Party will fully support your candidacy."
"Then we've made it a deal." Shan Liang said, "I'll take my leave."
Dan Liang got on his bicycle and whistled all the way to his dormitory. In order to avoid the trouble of the guards accompanying him, he stayed at the No. 2 Guest House of the Office tonight, which was only a few minutes away from the club.
At this time, he saw a carriage coming here. Who would come to this place to pay a visit to Speaker Qian at such a late hour? Shan Liang was a little curious. He turned the bike directly to the side of the road and hid it in the shadow of the street lamp.
On the carriage, the guards were armed with live ammunition. The curtains on the window were lowered, and Dan Liang watched silently. The carriage stopped at the steps of the verandah in front of Feiyun Club. In the moonlight, he saw the figure of a young woman getting out of the carriage. . The moonlight was hazy, and he couldn't tell who the person was. Just as he was about to leave in disappointment, the sea breeze blew a burst of fragrance to his nose. The aroma immediately brought back his memories:
"It turns out it's you. Miss Cheng!"
Cheng Yongxin stepped out of the carriage slowly. Qian Shuiting was already waiting on the verandah with a happy face. When he saw her holding a skirt and about to go up the steps, he walked a few steps down the steps and held her hand, leading her up the verandah.
"Thank you, Speaker Qian. Thank you for your invitation. I'm really flattered." She said and bowed slightly.
"Where, your presence makes this place shine." Qian Shuiting returned the gesture with a smile and a kiss on the hand.
"Come on, please sit down." He greeted.
The tables on the terrace have been cleared. Flowers were arranged again. Because Cheng Yongxin didn't smoke, he naturally didn't have a cigar. He replaced it with an ice bucket with a bottle of German sparkling wine buried in the ice.
Qian Xuanhuang skillfully wrapped the wine bottle with a napkin and filled two wine glasses.
Cheng Yongxin picked up the wine glass and smiled: "Open the champagne! What are you celebrating for?"
Qian Shuiting smiled and didn't answer. He just took a sip from the cup and looked at the rising bubbles in the slender cup with interest. He said: "Mr. Cheng, I have long admired your name."
"You are really good at joking." She smiled, "I have admired your name for a long time." She said and took a sip.
Qian Shuiting shook his head: "It's just a false reputation." He put down his wine glass, "Although Librarian Cheng stays in the library on weekdays, he knows the Senate very well. He must have expected the invitation."
Cheng Yongxin nodded: "Chairman Qian is sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, waiting for me, the willing fish, to take the bait?"
"Come on, let's have a joke." Qian Shuiting waved his hand, "Librator Cheng Bingxue is smart, so I won't beat around the bush. This violent terrorist case in Lingao is said to be accidental, but in fact it is a long-standing incident. It is inevitable under the operation of the system..."
As he spoke, he elaborated on his analysis and concerns about the current political system caused by this case. Of course, the most important thing was his concerns about powerful institutions. He vaguely mentioned the matter of dirty materials.
Cheng Yongxin listened very carefully. Although she kept a reserved smile, there were already waves in her heart. She already knew about the sun umbrella project. However, the information revealed by Qian Shuiting made her overjoyed.
This meant that Qian Shuiting, the most powerful faction in the Senate, extended an olive branch to him. When it comes to political power, Cheng Yongxin also advocates "decentralization" and "supervision." In the maid case, she spared no effort to influence and control public opinion.
However, the final result of the maid case was beyond her expectation. The "senior pervert murder" that she was originally confident about turned into a murder case among the maids. The most important thing is that several women in the powerful department she tried to win over insisted on This is the truth. The truth she hoped for was obscured.
However, through the maid case and her win over Pan Pan, her influence on the "Lingao Times" increased significantly.
Only with strength will someone be willing to sit down and drink tea with you. Cheng Yongxin felt the cold wine full of fruity and slightly sour taste sliding down her throat. If she was just an ordinary librarian, could Qian Shuiting treat her to champagne?
"I completely agree with you," Cheng Yongxin smiled brightly, "Then, what do you want me to do?"
"Use your influence with Pan Pan. That's all I ask."
"You are too polite. I am just a librarian in the library, and I do have some influence on Pan Pan, but after all, she is only the editor-in-chief of "Lingao Times", and the leader of the Propaganda Department is Ding Ding..."
"As a veteran, isn't it natural for you to express your own opinions? You are too humble." Qian Shuiting said.
"Okay, then I'll have to do it reluctantly. Who told you, Speaker Qian, to entrust you with the important task?"
"You are really a smart and lovely woman." Qian Shuiting complimented, "You are too talented to be in the big library."
"Haha, I laugh at the word smart. As for Keren, I can only repay the money to the Speaker." Cheng Yongxin smiled and said, "I think the library is also very good. It is quiet and suitable for people to study quietly. I think Things. It’s just too much mundane work. I’m so busy with mundane affairs.”
Cheng Yongxin came out of Feiyun Club already a little tipsy. Qian Shuiting sent her to the carriage and watched her leave before turning back to the house.
The night is already very deep. Qian Shuiting returned to the terrace again, lit a new cigar, and smoked it silently. He knew very well that after the sun umbrella project, the mainland strategy would soon be put on the agenda.
This is not only an inevitable backlash caused by the case, but from the perspective of the Senate, it is the best way to calm down the current internal and external conflicts, launch a war of expansion to make the cake bigger, and transfer internal conflicts.
From a large perspective, the current Senate regime has no difficulty in capturing Guangdong. The problem lies in how to "govern" it. Qian Shuiting knew that the governance philosophy of many elders was vertical, and that political power should go down to the grassroots to gain maximum control and mobilization. The executive committee’s governing thinking is roughly the same: the current approach in Hainan is also based on this thinking.
However, in his view, such an obsession with controlling the grassroots was beyond the capabilities of the Senate. Compared with Qiongzhou Prefecture, which has a population of only a few hundred thousand, Guangdong is much larger, with a population of nearly ten million. With such a big plate, neither Fangcaodi nor Fubo Army can provide enough grassroots cadres to implement these tasks. Doing this will waste a lot of manpower and material resources that have been accumulated with great difficulty.
He is not opposed to the idea of controlling the grassroots, but he feels there is no need to rush it. The most urgent needs of the Senate now are resources and population. Maintaining the old system can also obtain these. Although the efficiency may be a lot worse, it does not require too much investment after all. It can be absorbed slowly.
If there is a rush to "bring political power to the countryside", if it turns out to be "cooked rice" with no output but only input, the consequences for the Senate, which already has a big business, will be disastrous.
But he was troubled by the executive committee's insistence on it. He knew that ordinary senators were deeply influenced by the Executive Committee in terms of their political strength and governing ideas. My own opposition may not have any effect.
The problem in Guangdong is not big, after all, it is just a province. But what about looking at the whole country and the world? The ever-expanding power and voice of the Executive Committee will eventually drown out all voices, posing a great threat to the Senate and the great cause of time travel.
If the power and influence of the Executive Committee cannot be further reduced, once they enter Guangdong, a large number of grassroots elders will have substantial room for advancement, and they will further recognize the line of the Executive Committee. If a group establishes a system of decentralization, checks and balances, fluidity, and transparency, it will gradually lose market share. In essence, people hate all powerful people and always hope to deprive and restrict the powerful. However, once they become powerful themselves, they are not very interested in things like supervision, transparency, and checks and balances.
"We must stop them!" Qian Shuiting was secretly worried about the future of the Senate. There was too little time. The arbitral tribunal is only the first step to discredit the freaks of the Political Protection Bureau and the Executive Committee. Only by destroying the status of the Executive Committee in the hearts of the senators can the trust of the senators in the Senate be restored. The right path for the Senate is to gradually return all major powers to the Senate, ultimately abolish the Executive Committee, and establish a cabinet system with separation of powers in a modern country. (To be continued.
