Shen Qingxin's answer seemed to be reasonable, but in front of Bai Zhe, it was full of flaws.
Bai Zhe laughed lightly and then asked: "I believe Mayor Shen judged this to be a fire drill based on dry ice, but I am also sure that it is definitely not now!"
After speaking, he looked into Shen Qingxin's eyes. He wanted to get more useful information about the truth from his eyes.
Although it was confirmed that Shen Qingxin was responsible for this matter, Bai Zhe could not find any evidence.
He did this matter flawlessly and would not be implicated at all.
As a mayor, Bai Zhe chased and questioned him just because of one sentence, which made Shen Qingxin very embarrassed.
"Xiao Zhe, I think there is no need to discuss this issue. What you should consider now is how to make this exercise serve as a warning."
[Don’t think that with Qin Zhongwei’s support, I will be afraid of you. It’s not your turn to teach me a lesson now! 】
The crowd at the venue grew larger and larger, and reporters from the two cities' TV stations also arrived one after another.
Their target was Qin Zhongwei, who was standing in the center of the field. They seemed not to notice the tit-for-tat confrontation between Shen Qingxin and Bai Zhe.
Qin Zhongwei believes that Bai Zhe may know some truth, but it is not yet time to investigate the responsibility. After all, what is in front of everyone is the governments at all levels who are united to fight the disaster, not the ugly faces of attacking each other for personal interests.
For the sake of the overall situation, Qin Zhongwei stood up and said: "Comrades, today's incident is of very important educational significance. As the people's party and government, it is the time to establish faith and firm confidence. Bai Zhe, as a grassroots cadre in Lishui, you are the most important You have the right to speak, now it’s up to you to make an opening statement with everyone, and then invite leaders at all levels to speak to everyone.”
Since Qin Zhongwei was interceding for Shen Qingxin at this time, Bai Zhe took a deep look at Shen Qingxin and got the answer he wanted, so he put on a sincere smile, nodded and said:
"Okay Minister Qin..."
At this time, more than a thousand people surrounded the parking lot and were all isolated by fire fighters. The leaders gathered around Qin Zhongwei and expressed dismay at Qin Zhongwei's rush to the first dangerous scene regardless of his personal safety. Revere and learn from the heart.
When Gao Defa saw Bai Zhe standing at the forefront, he quickly came out and shouted to the noisy crowd: "Everyone, please stop making noise, the leader wants to speak."
Then he directed the winery staff to give Bai Zhe a megaphone.
Bai Zhe took the speaker, tried the sound, took a deep breath and started loudly:
"Dear winery worker brothers, leaders, and fellow soldiers, I am now pleased to announce that the fire drill in the winery has come to a successful conclusion. I am here to wish everyone safety!"
"Wow!"
Applause rang out on the field, and some people suddenly understood that all this had been arranged in advance, but until now they were still a little shocked.
Bai Zhe saw that outside the crowd, fire trucks, police cars, and ambulances were still parked quietly in their respective positions with their lights flashing. A look of relief appeared in his eyes.
"Comrade Gao Cong, the instructor of the fire squadron, and I worked very hard on this exercise. I heard that Comrade Gao Cong stayed up all night for this exercise. It was not until this morning that the specific plan for the exercise was finalized and fully presented. In front of everyone, here, on behalf of all the employees of our Jianghe Winery and the folks in Lishui Town, I would like to thank them. I would like to thank us lovely and respectable fire fighters. It is their professionalism and military vocation that provide us with We have complete safety guarantee, and can rush to the scene as soon as possible when danger occurs and erect an indestructible steel wall for us! Now I propose to give them applause first to thank them for their dedication and protection!"
"Wow..."
Everyone was excited and applauded and shouted to the fire fighters around them.
Those little firefighters straightened their backs instantly, their faces filled with sacredness and pride.
The warm applause gradually fell, and Bai Zhe continued: "Next, on behalf of our people and comrades in Lishui, I would like to express my deep gratitude to all the leaders and comrades from higher-level units who happened to come. It was you who learned that there was a dangerous situation. , being able to achieve a clear division of labor, perform on the spot, and take the lead. When encountering danger, we can have confidence in our hearts, strength in our hands, direction on our feet, and be clear about our obligations and responsibilities. Only then will everyone be united. They are calm and orderly in the face of danger. Here, please give them applause!"
After speaking, Bai Zhe took the lead in applauding and looked at Qin Zhongwei with grateful eyes.
Following Bai Zhe's mobilization, everyone applauded Qin Zhongwei and the leaders at all levels behind him. The crowd also shouted words of thanks to the leaders from time to time.
"Next, I would like to invite Comrade Qin Zhongwei, director of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, to speak!"
Shen Qingxin puffed up his chest, and then his smile froze.
I originally thought that Bai Zhe would give him a chance to speak, but the initiative was in Bai Zhe's hands. He actually directly invited the biggest leaders to speak, ignoring all of them.
But Bai Zhe didn't give up on him at all. On such a hot day, who had the time to listen to his nonsense? Every leader here came out to say a few words. It was probably already dark, so how could the unveiling ceremony be held?
So Bai Zhe chose to move out of Qin Zhongwei directly and make a concluding speech. Only then could the purpose of this exercise be successfully completed.
Facing the warm applause, Qin Zhongwei took two steps forward and took the megaphone from Bai Zhe, pondered for a moment, and then said:
"To be honest, I only learned about this exercise at the end. Comrades, this exercise is of far-reaching significance..."
"I won't say thank you. Here, I want to focus on praising Comrade Bai Zhe."
As a top five member of the provincial party committee, to nominate and praise a grassroots cadre alone is an affirmation of Bai Zhe's work, and it has a profound impact on him, which is of great significance.
The TV broadcast was transmitted to thousands of households, and many people were inquiring about the relationship between Bai Zhe and Qin Zhongwei.
For a time, a close-up shot of Bai Zhe appeared on the TV screens of many ordinary families in the province, marveling at such a young and capable grassroots cadre.
Among them, Li Simin turned off the TV directly and didn't even bother to take a second look at the lunch delivered by the secretary in front of him.
On the eve of Yuan Fuchun's upcoming transfer, the provincial party committee was about to undergo a major personnel transfer in a sensitive period. What on earth did Qin Zhongwei want to do?
Is it a feint to show off one's weakness, or is one going to risk everything and attack with all his might?
But the opportunity is right in front of you, and the opportunity is fleeting!
After much hesitation, Li Simin decided to seize this opportunity and fire at Qin Zhongwei.
The moment the mysterious phone call is made, an uproar that determines the fate of many people is quietly rising.
"Comrades, the alarm bell is ringing and we need to be vigilant at all times. I am very pleased to see that we can unite to fight the disaster. I also firmly believe that as long as everyone tightens the string of safety production at all times, with the concerted efforts of so many party members and cadres Together, with the loyal watch of so many fire fighters, the development of our Lishui Town will surely achieve greater success and bring prosperity to the party and the country!"
"good!"
…
The parking lot was in full swing, and Qin Zhongwei's speech attracted cheers and applause.
Qin Zhongwei looked back at everyone who was already sweating, and announced: "It's not too early now. Let's go to the conference room of the town government as soon as possible to have a drink of water and listen to the Lishui development report, so as to cool down and wait until the ceremony is over. Exploit the oil and water of the capitalist class and fill the bellies of our proletariat, eh?"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
The greater the position, the less pretentious what he said. A few words spoke to everyone's heart, and the crowd burst into laughter.
After Qin Zhongwei finished speaking, he handed the megaphone into Shen Qingxin's hand.
Now it was finally Shen Qingxin's turn to stand up, waved his hands with excitement and shouted to the crowd: "We listen to Minister Qin. Now we ask all units to organize the crowd to evacuate in an orderly manner and gather at the Lishui compound."
The crowd was like a flock of sheep. With Qin Zhongwei walking in front, everyone followed behind and left the winery step by step.
Bai Zhe followed Qin Zhongwei. Qin Zhongwei glanced at the secretary and entourage behind him. Everyone slowed down in a sensible manner and gradually distanced themselves from the two of them.
"Bai Zhe, if there is any unexpected situation during this exercise, you can tell me now."
As expected of Qin Zhongwei, he saw the problem from the tit-for-tat confrontation between Bai Zhe and Shen Qingxin just now, and he didn't mention it to Bai Zhe until now.
Bai Zhe saw that there was no one else around him, then turned around and said casually: "Actually, it's nothing, but it almost exploded. If it hadn't been discovered in advance, the consequences would have been disastrous."
"oh?"
Qin Zhongwei glanced at Bai Zhe in surprise, then looked down at the road at his feet: "You mean, it's probably Shen Qingxin who is causing trouble?"
Bai Zhe said flatly: "It's not possible, I'm sure now!"
"What's the basis?"
Bai Zhe shook his head slightly: "There is no basis, so I chose to tolerate it and not pursue it any further."
Qin Zhongwei breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said: "If there is no basis, don't mention it again. You are right to think so."
A flash of light flashed in Bai Zhe's eyes: "Uncle Qin, they are evil and have ulterior motives. We can't keep being beaten passively like this, right?"
Qin Zhongwei did not look at Bai Zhe, but raised his head and sighed: "You are still young. Some people do not hesitate to threaten the lives and property of the people for personal gain. These people are not a minority."
Then he looked at Bai Zhe and said, "But I would like to remind you that if you want to gain a foothold in the officialdom, you must not strive for success overnight. You must adapt to this environment as soon as possible."
Hearing Qin Zhongwei's tone, Bai Zhe frowned and said, "Uncle Qin, I'm a little confused about what you mean by this."
The meaning in Qin Zhongwei's words was obvious. He really couldn't help much, so Bai Zhe could do his own thing in the future.
But Bai Zhe found it very puzzling when he heard that it sounded like advice before leaving.
Qin Zhongwei stopped and showed a meaningful smile to Bai Zhe.
"I can tell you in advance that I will be transferred from the Jiangbei Provincial Committee soon."
"What?" Bai Zhe was stunned and looked at Qin Zhongwei in disbelief.
