Chapter 83: Fang Jingwen
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present immediately understood what they meant. Sure enough, there are no pure relationships in officialdom. Everything behind the scenes is an exchange of interests, even a second-generation like Li Tian understood this clearly.
Li Qingsheng was retaliating against Su Yang for his own purposes, but in fact, Li Tian was the biggest beneficiary, so he naturally had to return the favor.
Qin Chuan was very dissatisfied. So you've said all the words, you've taken all the good things, and you've earned all the favors, right?
When it's time to do real work, your head is full of shit, but when it's time to grab credit, you're quite clever. Then where is my authority as the top leader?
You're not treating me as a person at all.
But Li Tian had already spoken first, so he could only say, "That's right, Minister Li. I heard that Li Huan is a young and excellent entrepreneur who has made great achievements in the construction industry. So, our project will start next week. At that time, we will directly skip those cumbersome links and let Li Huan's construction company take over."
"With him doing this project, we can rest much easier."
That's what he said, even though he didn't even know what Li Qingsheng's son was called.
As for whether he was an excellent entrepreneur, who the hell knows.
Li Qingsheng said with a smile, "Oh, you two are too polite. What I'm doing is all part of my job. As for whether he'll be dismissed, that has to be proposed by the organization department first. Of course, Li Huan has developed his career very quickly over the past two years and has indeed made some achievements in this area. If you think his qualifications are acceptable, then cooperation is possible."
"But don't force it. Project quality must be the top priority. We must give the common people a satisfactory explanation. Don't let the houses collapse in three or five years, or have cracks, or have this or that quality problem, making the common people curse."
Although his words sounded righteous, were they a hint to the ears of the others?
What kind of project quality? It's already good enough if it can last three or five years. After three or five years, it won't be our problem. After being exposed to wind, sun, or even heavy rain, isn't it normal for quality problems to appear?
When that time comes, you can go wherever you want to find whoever you want; it has nothing to do with us anyway.
At this time, Deputy Secretary Liu, who was feeling a little sour, said, "Congratulations, congratulations. This time, Secretary Qin and Mayor Li can continue to follow your own policy guidelines in the town as always."
"At the same time, with everyone's concerted cooperation, we can do a good job in post-disaster reconstruction. This is also worthy of the organization and worthy of the people."
That's what he said, but he felt very dejected inside. He was only a deputy secretary, and one ranked relatively low. If he were a proper Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary, he could have gotten a piece of the pie in this Huatian Town reconstruction work.
Not only could he get a piece of the pie, but he could also take the absolute lion's share. What a great opportunity to make money.
The root of all this was Fang Jingwen. If Fang Jingwen hadn't come down, the higher-ups would definitely have promoted one of them, the deputy secretaries.
On the surface, he at least had a 1/4 chance of being promoted, and for this, he had even run to the city to find the Deputy Minister of the Organization Department, and even treated the Deputy Division Chief of the Provincial Organization Department to dinner. I can't say the odds were high, but it was almost a sure thing.
But the higher-ups chose to parachute someone in, and his beautiful dream was shattered.
But where would he know that he had squeezed his head to find only a Deputy Division Chief of the Provincial Organization Department, while Miss Fang didn't even need to open her mouth; she was parachuted in by the application of the Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission.
Please note, this Deputy Secretary first sought Miss Fang's opinion before making the personnel transfer.
To give an inappropriate example, his was "dynamic talent," while hers was "static talent."
Never mind a small Deputy Division Chief nodding; even if the Deputy Minister of the Organization Department agreed, it would be useless.
Except for the top leaders of the province, who else had the qualifications to challenge Fang Runan on personnel issues? Of course, scum at his level didn't know this at all.
And it was precisely because of this that he treated the things Fang Jingwen explained as wind in his ears.
Aren't you here to be the Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary? That's fine. When the time comes, we'll huddle together, and I'll see who will listen to you. Without the support of the people below, how can your work unfold?
"Secretary Liu, besides this reconstruction work, there is also a large amount of supplies. This time, it's definitely not going to be used up. Regarding these supplies, I wonder if we can..."
This time it was Qin Chuan who spoke. He finally grabbed the chance to show off before Li Tian.
The disaster relief supplies for Huatian Town allocated by the county and city were already enough, but the Provincial Civil Affairs Department had allocated a large portion of supplies, which simply couldn't be used up.
Before, they had also wanted to have ideas about this, but Su Yang was watching, so they didn't dare to do it openly, fearing they would be targeted by Su Yang.
These were disaster relief supplies; even if there was a surplus, they didn't dare to resell them.
Now that Su Yang was suspended, in his view, there was room for operation again. How they did it before, they could do it again now.
"This requires Minister Li's nod." Although Deputy Secretary Liu felt very comfortable, officialdom is like this: you have to let the higher-level person speak. This is an unspoken rule.
Li Qingsheng said with a smile, "You can arrange this matter yourselves. Just be sure to notify the comrades in the relevant departments when the time comes. You don't need to notify the Discipline Inspection Commission. Secretary Liu is here, so even if something is poked to the Discipline Inspection Commission in the future, Secretary Liu will solve it for you."
The implication was that if everyone shares the benefits, otherwise, if something happens in the end, everyone can huddle together to deal with it. Anyway, everyone takes the benefits, and even if they want to investigate, they can't.
This is the working principle that has been in many places for a long time. As long as there are enough people and enough departments involved, even if the King of Heaven comes, there is nowhere to start.
A smile finally appeared on Secretary Liu's face. "Good, good, good. You can rest assured about this. As long as someone sends the materials to me, I will suppress them. In our Jincheng County, a small Su Yang can't turn over any waves, right?"
"I heard he also wanted to engage in some supervision plan? That is to say, for every penny and every piece of material here, he wants the Discipline Inspection Commission to come down and coordinate supervision."
"It's really ridiculous. Who the fuck in the Discipline Inspection Commission is so bored that they would help him do this thankless job? Never mind others, I'm the first one who won't agree."
"And I've already told the people in the Discipline Inspection Commission: whoever dares to take this job, I'll make them look good."
As soon as these words were spoken, Qin Chuan and Li Tian applauded.
Deputy Secretary Liu also enjoyed it very much. However, just as he was still enjoying it, the phone in his pocket rang. He took it out, glanced at it, his expression changed slightly, and he made a silencing gesture to everyone.
"It's the call from that new girl. I have to answer it."
He was very disdainful of Fang Jingwen, even calling her "that girl."
"Hello, Secretary Fang, what are your instructions?"
Fang Jingwen said faintly, "Deputy Secretary Liu, the matter I told you yesterday afternoon—did you pass it down? The feedback I received is that no one has gone to Huatian Town today."
"Are you dissatisfied with me personally, or are you dissatisfied with the organization?"
Deputy Secretary Liu stammered and didn't dare to answer.
Dissatisfied with the top leader? This is a taboo in officialdom.
Dissatisfied with the organization? He wouldn't dare even if he had the guts.
Of course, Fang Jingwen didn't give him a chance to continue speaking. She continued, "Secretary Liu, since you happen to be going to Huatian Town today, then you will represent the Discipline Inspection Commission to be stationed in Huatian Town and be responsible for supervising their disaster relief supplies and fund expenditures."
"In addition, I will also send two comrades down to assist you. You must ensure that every penny and every piece of money has accounts to check and traces to follow."
After speaking, Fang Jingwen hung up the phone directly.
Deputy Secretary Liu, who was just disdainful and very arrogant, was stunned on the spot.
He could ignore it, could be disdainful, could be disdainful, but the work within the system is like this. The power of the top leader cannot be desecrated by anyone.
Even if they are unconvinced, what can they do? She is the County Party Deputy Secretary and concurrently the Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary.
To put it bluntly, if he dared to disobey, she would have enough reasons to transfer him away from his current job, and even give him an internal warning. His future would be ruined.
This doesn't even need to pass through an internal meeting; one word from Fang Jingwen is enough.
But if he listened to Fang Jingwen's order and stayed here to do supervision work, wouldn't that be like eating the shit he just shat out?
This kind of thing, slapping himself in the face, would not only make him feel disgusted, but others would also treat this as a joke for a lifetime, and he wouldn't be able to hold his head up within the Discipline Inspection Commission.
They had just said they would huddle together to deal with Fang Jingwen. As a result, one phone call from her made him kneel.
No matter how he chooses, he has completely lost the upper hand in front of Fang Jingwen. This is a conspiracy. It's directly unsolvable.
At the same time, it is also a warning to others in the Discipline Inspection Commission.
Before, he had also thought that Fang Jingwen might kill the chicken to scare the monkey, and might pick a deputy secretary or a section chief to take action. He didn't expect that he would become this chicken. This tactic is not to be underestimated.
