The government officially starts working on the seventh day of the first lunar month, but there is a special custom in China, but the Spring Festival has not yet ended on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. So on the first day of work, governments at all levels went to various departments to check.
The first is to send Spring Festival blessings to the personnel of these departments to express the importance that leaders attach to department work.
Secondly, it is also to urge office workers to calm down. The Spring Festival holiday is over and it is time to work hard again.
Zhao Xiaobei accompanied Executive Vice Governor Peng Jiasheng to visit the public security officers on the front line, and also made a special trip to the command center of the Beijiang Municipal Public Security Bureau to express condolences to the comrades.
Accompanied by Guo Hailong, Executive Deputy Director of the Beijiang Municipal Public Security Bureau, Peng Jiasheng spoke highly of and praised the Beijiang Municipal Public Security System for its outstanding efforts in maintaining social security and protecting people's lives and property during the inspection. He also encouraged comrades to make persistent efforts to eliminate blind spots in public security and leave no unrest factors behind. He also repeatedly emphasized that safety must be paid attention to on the front line.
Peng Jiasheng then went to his department to inspect the work and held a working meeting on the province's agricultural tax reform the next day.
It was emphasized at the meeting that agricultural tax reform is a good thing that benefits the country and the people. I hope that comrades will do their work carefully and solidly. Let the country's great policies be enjoyed by farmers across the province. At the same time, we also emphasize that we must pay attention to the publicity work of the masses and some injustices in the reform process. We must achieve a good situation in which everyone understands the policy and supports it.
He also said at the meeting that the abolition of agricultural taxes will definitely bring pain to fiscal revenue, but the financial department must strengthen its confidence and come up with more flexible fund use efficiency to eliminate fiscal waste.
After all this work was completed, it was the fourteenth day of the first lunar month. On this day, Zhao Xiaobei was in the office reporting today's work arrangements and schedule. The mobile phone message notification sounded.
When I sat down in my office and turned on my phone, I saw a message from Ningzhou Mayor Ji Xiaofu.
"Is the leader busy?"
Zhao Xiaobei knew that Ji Xiaofu had something to report, so he looked at the leader's meeting arrangements on his notepad. Then he called Ji Xiaofu back.
"Sister Xiaofu, what can you do?"
"Xiao Bei, I have something important to report to the leader. You can ask the leader what time is convenient."
Zhao Xiaobei had already seen the arrangements for today's meeting. He already knew it in his heart, and after a moment of silence he said, "Come here at 11:40."
After the agreed time, Zhao Xiaobei reported the matter to Governor Peng. Governor Peng also nodded to indicate that he understood.
At 11:20, Peng Jiasheng called him in.
"All meetings in the morning have been postponed to the afternoon. Now you call Mayor Ji and ask her to come and report."
Soon Ji Xiaofu arrived.
"Mayor Ji and the leaders are waiting, let's go in."
Zhao Xiaobei took Ji Xiaofu in and prepared to come out after making tea.
"Xiao Bei, please sit down and listen."
Ji Xiaofu looked at Peng Jiasheng and said:
"Governor, according to your instructions, the Ningzhou Municipal Government has been collecting some reports and petitions on the restructuring of Guofu Mine. Just last night, a stranger stuffed this envelope under the door of my house. I thought it was After opening some simple reporting materials, I was shocked. I knew the matter was of great importance, so I brought the envelope and rushed over to report."
With that, he handed the envelope to Peng Jiasheng, who opened it and looked at it for a long time. The look on his face became more and more shocked, and finally the surprise on his face was gone, replaced by anger.
"Are you sure that these materials really reflect the problem?" Peng Jiasheng asked Ji Xiaofu.
"I received these things yesterday and came here to report them today. But after I received the envelope last night, I communicated with Comrade Yu Xiangbo. He has known about some of the issues in it for a long time, but there is no evidence."
"You mean there's at least some truth in this."
"Yes, Governor."
After hearing Ji Xiaofu's answer, Peng Jiasheng handed the envelope of materials in his hand to Zhao Xiaobei.
Zhao Xiaobei looked at the copies inside the envelope. They were all account books, photos and an evaluation report. According to the account books, the annual profits of the restructured Guofu Mine have been concealed and underreported. That assessment report showed that the Guofu Mine should have been worth 10.2 billion when it was restructured, which was at least 7 billion less than the 3 billion it was at the time of reorganization.
This shortfall of 7 billion means that the private capital that entered the mine during the restructuring period will have to pay 2 billion less investment capital.
Finally, there is a report letter, which clearly states this. The Discipline Inspection Commission of Yueshan Province could not investigate the restructuring of Guofu Mine, because the letter reported that Xia Xihua, the current secretary-general of the provincial government, was involved.
They just rely on underestimating the actual value of Guofu Mine. This allows Xia Xihua's stakeholders to buy shares in the mine at a low price, then mortgage the shares to cash in and invest capital, and finally sells the coal in the mine to its stakeholders at a low price to obtain high profits, and then repays the bank.
This is simply a waste of money. The letter also specifically pointed out that they enriched their own pockets by extracting state-owned profits by selling first-grade coal into third-grade coal.
They also had the audacity to use coal mine safety maintenance funds to defraud nearly 300 million in coal mine safety improvement costs through concealment and false construction. It was also this reason that led to the last water leakage accident in the coal mine.
"What do you think about this?" Peng Jiasheng looked at Zhao Xiaobei and asked.
Zhao Xiaobei knew very well that these materials were evidence of crimes exposed in later generations. So Zhao Xiaobei said with certainty:
"I don't think the things here are fake. It's just that it's difficult for us to deal with it now. First, this is an anonymous report, and we can't start the investigation process. Second, the Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission has just investigated Xia Xihua, and now it has to investigate again. I guess It’s hard for the Discipline Inspection Commission to explain it. The third leader’s appearance is not justified.”
"So I suggest that we first use media channels to heat up this matter, and then we can take advantage of the trend and leverage our efforts."
Originally, such media anti-corruption was very common in later generations, but free media was not yet developed at that time, so everyone's thinking was a bit limited.
Peng Jiasheng didn't say anything, and Ji Xiaofu spoke: "But it is estimated that even the provincial newspaper and TV station would not dare to broadcast such a report, and the publicity side will definitely suppress it."
Peng Jiasheng actually thought so in his heart, so he also looked at Zhao Xiaobei. He knew that since Zhao Xiaobei had said it, he must have a plan.
"We don't go through the official media. We can find some bloggers and portals. In this way, the Propaganda Department can't get involved. When the matter becomes hot, it will be reprinted by the provincial newspaper and reported by the TV station. Of course, the angle of reporting is a skeptical angle. .The resistance will be better this way.”
Peng Jiasheng and Ji Xiaofu do not have a deep understanding of blogs and portals. So I'm a little confused about this plan.
