As rumors spread, Deputy Secretary Yang Zhigang also began to take action. First, Xia Xihua and Vice Governor Gao Jinbo, who was in charge of the coal mine, were called together for a small meeting.
Xia Xihua himself was still very anxious because he was the first to be caught in the storm of rumors.
"Leader, the current situation is not very optimistic. The previous group of people who were laid off due to the restructuring, instigated by Yu Xiangbo, began to complain everywhere. I have also communicated with people in Ningzhou many times, and they said that Duan Changlin has also remained silent. , making us very passive.”
Because Governor Liu Guanghui is already 62 years old, if he cannot make further progress before the two sessions are held at the end of this year and the beginning of next year, he will probably have to retire in 2007 when the term changes. Besides, even if he progresses now and becomes the secretary of the provincial party committee, he will still have to retire by then. Retire because the retirement age at the ministerial level is 65. So he doesn't have many pursuits now. In the battle between Peng Jiasheng and Yang Zhigang, he is slightly biased towards Yang Zhigang, a local cadre.
But the bad news is that during my last physical examination in Beijing, I found a tumor in my lungs. I don’t know whether it is benign or malignant yet, and further biopsy is needed. Compared to his own life, he no longer wants to get involved in the right and wrong in the officialdom. At least as long as I am alive, regardless of whether I am retired or not, I will have the political life treatment at the ministerial level. If I am no longer there, it will be meaningless to be at the national level.
So now that Duan Changlin is the secretary of the municipal party committee, without the instruction of his backer Liu Guanghui, he must be at odds with each other. You must know that this is a fight between gods, not a struggle for interests at his own level, so it is better to stay away. Besides, he also knew that no matter how much progress he made, it would be impossible without the support of the two big bosses in the province, but he really didn't know who would take over the position of Governor Liu. It is too risky to rashly take sides.
"Don't worry, I will communicate with Governor Liu Guanghui about Duan Changlin's problem. All you need to do is wipe your butt clean. Don't be busy during this period. There is something that the province has not expressed its position on. Don't rush to seek medical treatment if you are sick." , maybe it’s just what you want.”
Vice Governor Gao Jinbo also spoke: "Yes, Secretary-General Xia. Don't we still have Secretary Yang at the helm?"
Yang Zhigang looked at Gao Jinbo and said, "Old Gao, you have to pay attention too. Qian Xiangqiang, you have to ask him to do it, don't let anyone build the plank road openly or use the warehouse secretly."
Xia Xihua was muttering in his heart when he heard what Yang Zhigang said. Of course you are not in a hurry, and it is not you who is being investigated now. You have never dealt with the turmoil between me and you, and of course you are not afraid of it, but don't think that you are safe, as long as I can't pass the test. You are just going to finish playing with me.
Of course, these are all from the heart, and Xi Xihua will definitely not say them out, at least not now. Unless it's a matter of life and death.
Gao Jinbo also replied: "Don't worry, Secretary Yang. I have made all arrangements. There is no sign that Qian Xiangqiang has any problems with him yet. But Secretary Yang, we can't sit still and wait for death. I think we should retreat." In order to make progress, let the Discipline Inspection Commission openly investigate. Of course, our own people from the Discipline Inspection Commission will investigate. This can also block Yuyou's mouth, and we can also turn passivity into initiative."
Yang Zhigang heard what Gao Jinbo said and thought it made sense. I was still thinking that people like Lao Gao had their own ways of doing things, unlike Xia Xihua who only knew how to act in a hurry when something happened.
"I think that's fine. I'll go talk to Secretary Zhang Qiusheng and see what his attitude is."
The next day Yang Zhigang went to Zhang Qiusheng's office.
"Secretary Zhang, I want to report something to you."
Zhang Qiusheng already knew what Yang Zhigang was going to say, but as early as last night, Peng Jiasheng went to his home to chat with him for several hours. They have already reached a consensus, or have already made an exchange of interests. Peng Jiasheng has already sided with Zhang Qiusheng, and in exchange for this report, Zhang Qiusheng helped Peng Jiasheng.
This is Zhang Qiusheng's calculation. Yang Zhigang is a localist. If his family is allowed to dominate, it will also be a threat to him. But Peng Jiasheng is different. Even if he takes over as governor, it will take some time to straighten out the work and people, and it will take some time to accumulate strength. This is what I am keen to see as a leader.
So I had already thought about what Yang Zhigang would say and how I would answer.
"Secretary Yang, tell me if you have anything to say."
"Secretary Zhang, there are rumors in the government that Comrade Xia Xihua had problems during the restructuring process of Guofu Mine. These false rumors are unfair to Comrade Xia Xihua and also undermine Comrade Xia Xihua's enthusiasm for work. Our Provincial Party Committee Is it possible to consider asking comrades from the Discipline Inspection Commission to investigate so that Comrade Xia Xihua’s name can be rectified?”
Zhang Qiusheng didn't expect that Yang Zhigang would come out like this. In an instant, he couldn't use the words he had planned in his heart, but he quickly adjusted. Yang Zhigang replied in Mandarin:
"Secretary Yang, I'm not clear about the situation you mentioned yet. Let me understand it first before communicating with you."
When Yang Zhigang heard what Zhang Qiusheng said, he knew that he was doing Tai Chi. I didn’t say much more, and came out after a few more words. When I came out, I went straight to Liu Guanghui's office.
"Governor Liu, there are a lot of rumors in our provincial government. What are the intentions of spreading these rumors in the government compound? Comrade Xia Xihua is a cadre who grew up in Yueshan. It is not easy for us to train a cadre."
Liu Guanhui naturally heard those gossips, but he really has no time to care about them now. He only cares about his own body now.
"I said, Lao Yang, are there not enough rumors in our government compound? If our comrades even believe such rumors, it would be too unprincipled. The province has not made a clear stance on the matter. What do comrades have to say? I’m so worried.”
Yang Zhigang really wants to say that you, Liu Guanghui, are really short-sighted. Is this coming for me alone? This is for our local forces.
But I have no choice but to ask for help now, so I can only follow his words:
"Yes, that's what I said. That's why I came to you today to initiate an investigation by the Commission for Discipline Inspection. If we really want to investigate and deal with any problems, we should deal with them realistically. If there are no problems, we need to clear the names of those comrades."
Liu Guanghui didn't think too much and just said calmly: "After I come back from Beijing, we will report this matter to the secretary. We will see if we should start the disciplinary inspection commission investigation process."
Seeing that Liu Guanghui agreed, Yang Zhigang chatted for a few words and left.
In the evening, he specially made an appointment with Li Jimin, secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, to chat in detail outside for a long time, because the secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection was his ally and a representative of local forces. They discussed how to do this well.
