The price he proposed is: 1. It can be agreed that the current structure of the Political Security Bureau will remain unchanged. The director will be appointed by the Executive Committee and approved by the Senate. However, the scope of authority must be clear to combat organized crime, monitor dissidents and threats to the Senate. person. No overstep of authority is allowed; 2. Establish a Senate Budget Committee to tighten financial control over various departments, achieve financial transparency, and put an end to secret expenditures such as "intelligence fees" and "special fees." 3. Establish the Senate Security Committee and place the current powerful agencies such as the Foreign Intelligence Service, the Political Security Bureau, and the National Police under the supervision of the committee. The director of each department shall propose a list of heads of subordinate departments, and they shall take office only after approval by the Senate Security Committee. 4. Establish a Secret Service Bureau of the Senate to provide security services for senators and important persons. Affiliated to the Intelligence Committee of the Senate.
"... Salina can be brought here through the appointment of the Secret Service." Zhou Weisen said, "She is a guest in the old powerful agency and has no influence at all. Not to mention that matter-"
Although the senior officials of the Senate kept silent about Salina's narrow escape from rape, and she never mentioned it herself, the Qian brothers and Zhou Weisen both believed that rape, whether attempted or not, would cause deep psychological harm to women. Therefore, she will instinctively reject most people in the Senate. The "North American Party" will gain her natural trust due to language and the same social and cultural background. The fact that Salina has been very close to Feiyun Club in recent years also confirmed their suspicion.
If Selina can take charge of the Secret Service, then the house party, whether it is public (Security Committee of the Senate) or private (Salina), will have full influence on the Senate's internal security system.
"You are absolutely right. Besides, who said that the Secret Service can only be responsible for protecting VIPs? The Secret Service's main business was law enforcement for the Ministry of Finance." Qian Shuiting said meaningfully, "Now we need a law enforcement team There are many agencies, the Cheka and the Tax Bureau are all working on this idea. Now that we have a team, the Secret Service can slowly attract business - do we want to avoid the waste of duplicative construction of agencies?"
Zhou Weisen said: "I estimate that clauses 1, 3 and 4 can achieve the goal through this case. After all, the establishment of the safety committee also gives the soy sauce elders a way out - using the platform of the Senate to express themselves without having to beg for mercy from the organization. This can gradually Abolish the organizational departments controlled by the Executive Committee and put the personnel power in our hands. The second point is more troublesome, but it must be completed before the Guangdong Raiders, otherwise the Executive Committee will really be in trouble. Let’s overthrow the Executive Committee Yes. The resistance to the establishment of a cabinet system will become greater and greater."
"No, the second point doesn't matter. It's best to pass. It doesn't matter if you don't pass. Our focus is not here." Qian Shuiting shook his head and said, "Under the executive committee system, the so-called Finance Director's Department is just a counting house. Many times It is still controlled by the Executive Committee and the Planning Yuan, especially the Planning Yuan. We cannot win over the Planning Yuan. Just setting up a finance committee will not be of much use."
"You mean to use this in exchange?"
"Yes. Financial power is of little significance to us now, but it is very useful to the Executive Committee. They will definitely try to protect it. But they lack reasons to refuse supervision. We can take a step back on this in exchange for a safe establishment. The conditions of the committee." Qian Shuiting picked up the cup and stared at the thick wheat-yellow wine. "Of the four items we proposed, there is no problem in passing the first and fourth items. They are all as they should be. The main resistance will be in the third item. superior."
"However, the financial budget is an important link. If we can take this opportunity to set up the important committees of finance, security, intelligence, and personnel in the Standing Committee, the reform will be easier in the future."
"Slow down. Haste leads to waste." Qian Shuiting stared at the sea. "Political ideas have inertia. The elders all live in the political inertia of the past environment and are accustomed to the old system. We can only move forward step by step. Come. If there is an opportunity in the future, it will not be too late for us to mention these committees again. Everything is difficult at the beginning, but once we have a beginning, the rest will be easier to handle."
Zhou Weisen poured new whiskey into his glass: "Who do you think is more suitable to be the chairman of this safety committee? What about Shan Liang?"
"I haven't thought about this yet. But Shan Liang is not suitable. He is a bombshell and offends too many people. It is not good to be the chairman of the committee. But we can't directly arrange for our people to be too conspicuous. I think we can find someone It would be good if the soy sauce veteran who is friendly to the home party can be the candidate." Qian Shuiting thought for a while, "Let's put more people on the committee."
"I'll go arrange the election right away." Zhou Weisen said. "It's a pity that I'm in the special investigation team and don't have enough time. And once the team is transferred, I won't be able to help you."
"It doesn't matter. After the Secret Service is established, I will find a way to ask some of the special investigation team members to transfer to the Secret Service. Then you can transfer them back as training instructors." Qian Shuiting drank the wine in one gulp.
Zhou Weisen did not stay long after dinner. He wanted to go back to the special investigation team immediately to make arrangements for the work. In the next political struggle within the Senate, he had to be active to achieve his goal.
Qian Shuiting sat on the balcony of the club for a long time. Seeing that the time was approaching ten o'clock, he was about to go back to the boat to sleep when Qian Xuanhuang came to announce again: Shan Liang was here.
"Invite him to the terrace." Qian Shuiting said.
"Old Qian, you are really enjoying yourself!" Dan Liang greeted loudly, his footsteps echoing on the wooden floor. He was wearing blue overalls. Although they had been washed, the stains on them were not clean and were very conspicuous.
"Have a seat. Have you eaten?" Qian Shuiting stood up and greeted, "Bring me the Chuqing Edition cigar-"
"I've already eaten. Do you still have the Chuqing version? Chairman Qian is really rich!"
"This is a little inventory from last year. There is a cigar storage box on the ship. It is well preserved."
Dan Liang sat down, took out a cigar, and cut off the tail with a Swiss knife without using the cigar cutter in the cigarette tray. He took out a zippo gasoline lighter, lit the cigar, and took a deep breath.
Qian Shuiting lit a cigar with a match on the cigarette tray: "Just returned to Lingao? You must be very busy at work."
"Our telecommunications company is a labor reform team, worse than Governor Wen's secretary who is a naturalized citizen. How can you, the Speaker, have the money to feel comfortable here." Shan Liang was not polite, "What do you want from me?"
Shan Liang refused Cheng Yongxin's invitation last time and did not get involved in the maid case. Although he hated the "animals" of the Executive Committee, he disliked Cheng Yongxin's aggressive and superior attitude. Moreover, the maid case did not appeal to him. Shan Liang did not care about the rights of naturalized people, and he was not interested in women's rights. If he had to go out and make a name for himself, he felt that the price would be reduced.
The most critical point is that Cheng Yongxin did not offer him any benefits, and it was impossible to see what benefits Cheng Yongxin could give him in the future.
Indeed, his participation in the Maid Case can refresh his presence and increase his popularity. But other than that he has nothing good to offer. The "power of the media" she promised was completely empty in Shan Liang's opinion. Because she doesn't really control the media herself, she just has a little influence. The more Cheng Yongxin talks nonsense, the more Shan Liang feels that she is unreliable.
You don't have to be afraid of selling yourself to do politics, but you have to pay a price.
Shan Liang was conceited about Cheng Yongxin. Apart from posting a few posts on the internal forum to increase his presence, he did not open fire in the Senate or write any long articles for newspapers. Then, he went back to the construction site.
Soon after returning to Lingao this time, he encountered the Lingao incident. Shan Liang instinctively realized that a great opportunity had come!
Compared to the maid case, which most senators didn't care about, this incident obviously shocked the Senate more. Shan Liang knew that someone would soon ask him to be a gunman.
"Of course it's because of this terrorist attack." Qian Shuiting said, "What do you think?"
"The executive committee ignores the elders, the cadres at all levels are bureaucratic, and the administrative agencies are completely incompetent." Shan Liang said indifferently, "It's nothing more than these."
"Yes, these are all problems. But the Executive Committee has now become immune to this, and the masses have begun to adapt to these injustices. I am afraid that mentioning these again will not have any effect on the improvement of the work of the Executive Committee .”
Shan Liang thought: There's a chance! I don't know what kind of important inside information this old man has. Prepare to be thrown through yourself.
"Old Qian, do you have inside information?"
"Yes, I do." Qian Shuiting stopped beating around the bush and said, "Did you know that the Political Security Bureau is collecting dirty information about the elders?"
"Is there such a thing?!" Shan Liang's eyes widened, because he had vaguely heard about this matter, but it was just random roadside news, and no one could provide even a little bit of evidence. Now that this matter has come out through Qian Shuiting's mouth, the nature is completely different - he is the executive committee member!
"I can confirm that this matter is true." Qian Shuiting nodded, "Judging from various signs..."
Shan Liang immediately fell into disappointment: "So, you have no direct evidence?"
"Of course, how can I have direct evidence? The Political Security Bureau is a black hole. Nothing can be said from the outside, and nothing from the inside can come out. It's like an iron barrel."
"Isn't it all for nothing?" Shan Liang lay down on the backrest and blew out a smoke ring, "I have heard about the fact that they are working on black materials. But is it useful? Without evidence, who can Believe it! We can’t go in to investigate.”
"Now is a great opportunity. The violent terrorist incident has caused such a big stir. What does the Political Security Bureau do? They are the first responsible persons. They must investigate and investigate thoroughly." Qian Shuiting said with a smile. got up.
"Kill him while he's sick!" Shan Liang already understood what Qian Shuiting meant, "You mean, take this opportunity to uncover their secrets?" (To be continued.
