He waited for a few minutes. Although there was a buzz of whispers below, no one raised any objections.
"The "Investigation Report on the Wuzhou Riots" was approved by the elders present at the meeting, and no elder raised objections to it. According to the relevant investigation replies received from all elders stationed abroad, a two-thirds majority has been formed, so the Senate resolved , recognizes the legitimacy of the report.”
After Ma Jia finished reading this sentence in a measured tone, the next step was the main event - the questioning.
Sure enough, as soon as Ma Jia announced the start of the question meeting, people immediately asked to speak.
The vest took a closer look and saw that it was Hai Lin from the woodwork factory. He knew that Hai Lin was a veteran "opposition member of the Senate" and that he and Shan Liang were the "double gems" at the beginning. Whenever something major happens, a hearing will inevitably be required, and various "fixing questions" and "reflective questions" will be posted on BBS every week. He was once a headache for the various ministries, commissions and bureaus of the Senate.
This time Shan Liang was not drawn, but Hailin was drawn. Ma Jia knew that he must be well prepared and ready to fire.
"Comrade Ma Jia," Hailin walked up to the podium, first nodded slightly towards Ma Jia, and then turned to the audience to greet him, "Comrades!" He was polite and gentlemanly.
Ma Jia thought to himself that Hailin has started to play this trick now, and the political level of the elders has really improved in recent years.
"Comrade Xie Erren, I have read the report about Wuzhou." Hailin said, "To be honest, I am saddened and surprised at the same time." At this point, he paused for a moment pretending to be profound, "The Senate considered such an important A city has been handed over to you, but what about you? What kind of spirit did you use to do this job? Are you sorry for the trust that the elders have placed in you?!"
These words have a critical flavor. Although Xie Erren was mentally prepared, he was still speechless by this heart-wrenching question.
But he was a reporter after all. He had seen a lot of monsters and monsters. After calming down a little, he thought about the plan as expected and said with a guilty look: "I am indeed ashamed of the Senate's trust in me. I didn't do anything." Do your job well. I am the first person responsible for this Wuzhou riot, and there is nothing to defend."
Hailin originally thought that the reporter must have some clever words to make excuses, but he didn't expect that he would admit it immediately, which somewhat disrupted his plan.
Originally, he planned to "expose Xie Erren's cover" through a series of facts to heat up the atmosphere of the hearing. However, Xie Yuanlao immediately admitted that he was a "goblin" and the planned drama could not go on. Hailin had no choice but to change the topic and start talking about the issue of "accountability".
"...Comrades, although the Wuzhou incident was Comrade Xie Erren's personal mistake, other departments, especially the Government Affairs Council, as well as organizational personnel, intelligence, public security and our always omnipotent Doesn’t the Political Security Bureau have any responsibility? I think it not only has a responsibility, but the main responsibility!”
Dong Shiye whispered: "It's begun."
Ma Jia nodded slightly: "This is an old recipe that has remained unchanged for thousands of years."
He looked at Hailin's impassioned speech and knew that Hailin's ultimate goal was Ma Qianxu - to criticize and disgrace Ma Dugong, or at least call him "cannot harm the Senate." This was something he had not concealed for a long time. The goal. Of course, this goal is becoming increasingly elusive. Now everyone knows that even if Ma Qianzhu steps down, the person who takes over as Secretary of State will be at least a "close comrade" who is not on his team.
Sure enough, after some impassioned remarks that "rectification is imperative," Hailin turned his attention to Ma Qianzhu, saying that he had made serious mistakes many times during his years as Secretary of State, and this failure in Wuzhou was even more serious. It is a "political disaster". Moreover, Ma Qianzhu was one of Xie Erren's "nominees" to serve as Wuzhou regional director, and his specific appointment was also approved by him. Should bear primary responsibility.
"...I think Comrade Ma Qianxu should take the blame and resign - or at least conduct a public review!"
After Hailin finished speaking, there was a burst of sparse applause from the seats. Although some people shouted: "Well said!" But no one responded, and it seemed a bit deserted.
Although the atmosphere was not as lively as expected, it was still a good start. The next person who raised her hand to ask to speak was Cheng Yongxin, which was not beyond the expectations of Ma Jia and others - she had not spoken on public affairs for a long time.
Cheng Yongxin had stumbled into trouble over the maid case, and she was trying to stir up trouble through the Lingao incident. After all the hard work, it’s not that I didn’t get any benefits at all, at least I am now a well-known figure in the news media. She was very careful to keep a distance from Du Wen on the cause of women's rights, lest anyone compare her with Du Wen.
Although her attempt to enter the media and influence the media was more or less realized, Ma Jia knew that Miss Cheng was involved in an unsuccessful relationship. It is said that he suffered great physical and mental harm and was heartbroken for a time. Although I cut off my love in the end and ended this bad relationship, I had to take a long break from illness to recover, so I haven't been very active recently.
Speaking at the hearing this time is obviously a signal that she is ready to return to the stage.
Cheng Yongxin's face was slightly pale. After she took the stage, she first asked Yiren a few questions - all about Cai Lan, including how to shelter Cai Lan, and how she thought of keeping her with her.
Although this was included in the report, Xie Erren still answered them one by one.
"Dear veterans," Cheng Yongxin generally does not use the title "comrade", "I would like to draw everyone's attention to Cai Lan in this case. Although she has now been identified as one of the main participants in the Wuzhou riots, even in our She committed suicide before the investigation team went there. But should we think about it the other way around, why did she participate in this riot?"
Everyone's eyes widened, thinking what did she say?
"... Cai Lan's assassination of the senator was originally a serious crime. But since the assassination failed and Mr. Xie used his power as a senator to pardon her crime, she should be placed in another place or released directly according to relevant regulations. Why? Taking Cai Lan into the house like an object, does it mean that for some lower-body-thinking elders, the only role of women is to have sex?!”
Ma Jia nodded slightly, Cheng Yongxin's words were right. Regarding Cai Lan, Xie Erren has serious problems - it can even be said that many of the problems with the Wuzhou riots stem from his improper handling of Cai Lan! Although her original intention may not be here, her observation ability to grasp the key points is still online.
Cheng Yongxin continued: "Disrespecting women, objectifying women, degrading and toying with women at will has become a common practice in the Senate. It has even formed an unspoken rule, and the majority of female senators can only swallow their anger..."
The vest knocked the gavel and reminded: "Ms. Cheng Yongxin, please pay attention to the content of your speech. We do not object to everyone's free expression of opinions, but please stay on topic and don't go too far off topic."
"I'm here to express my personal thoughts. I'm really sorry for making you unhappy." Cheng Yongxin said sarcastically, "Well, since the elders here don't like to hear this, then I will focus on the topic."
"The reason why Cai Lan participated in the riot was that Cai Lan couldn't bear the mental and physical abuse and torture Mr. Erren subjected her to!" At this point, she became a little emotional. "This contributed to Cai Lan's final surrender to Killed the enemy..."
Next, Cheng Yongxin launched a concentrated attack on Xie Erren, almost directly labeling him as a "scumbag", "sex devil" and "sadist". Everyone felt a little puzzled as to why Cheng Yongxin suddenly became so excited and almost burst into tears. .
"...I feel very strange. How did a person like Mr. Xie Erren, whose ability is worrisome and whose moral standards I don't want to comment on, become the local chief executive of an important city? He has no administrative experience at all and no education. He has no professional background. Who is acting as his promoter and protector behind this? There is also Liu Hope, who played an extremely bad role in the case. Such a morally corrupt villain actually became the commander of a prisoner camp openly. . I feel strange: On what basis does the human resources department of the Senate select and appoint officials? These are things we should figure out. I propose an independent investigation of these departments and individuals! If necessary, ask the Senate to convene General meeting, reorganize the department!”
"She and Hai Lin are in the same group?" Dong Shiye asked in a low voice.
"I can't see." Ma Jia shook his head slightly, "Hailin wants to mess with just Ma Qianzhu. She obviously belongs to the personnel and organization department."
"Are you trying to move Mingming?"
"It means something." Ma Jia said, "She is obviously not alone - there are people behind her. Personnel and organization are the invisible power centers, and there are many people who want to intervene."
Cheng Yongxin's speech received more applause than Hailin. Although everyone was not very interested in her accusation of "objectifying women", the flaws in the personnel and organization department's selection and employment during the Wuzhou Incident were obvious.
After two consecutive warm-ups, the atmosphere in the venue became much more lively, and many more people asked to speak.
"It's really lively now." Ma Jia said to Dong Shiye, "Today's hearing is going to be a protracted battle."
Neither Ma Jia nor Dong Shiye, the third veteran who spoke, were familiar with each other. Because it is rare to see this person's name appear in meetings or "two magazines and one newspaper". He should be an ordinary senator who rarely gets involved in Senate politics, has a low position, and focuses on his own work.
"I also want to say a few words about the Wuzhou riots." He wiped his head with a handkerchief, obviously not suitable for such an occasion. "The incident itself has been made very clear in the report, and I have no doubts about it. The main thing is I would like to express my personal views on this incident.”
