Chapter 1453

The next day, the city held a standing committee meeting on the incident of the masses in Changshan County sitting in at the gate of the municipal government. Several standing committee members believed that this was an incident with a very serious nature and a very bad impact, and the relevant leaders of Changshan County should be punished.

However, several standing committee members represented by Ji Tao opposed this opinion. They believed that this was an organized and premeditated action, not a spontaneous action by quarry workers at all, but a criminal act. Now there is testimony from the parties involved, proving that it was the quarry owner who hired people to participate in this action.

Ji Tao believed that the Changshan County Party Committee and County Government shutting down the quarries mining in violation of regulations was completely reasonable and legal, while the quarry owner hiring people to sit in was an illegal and criminal act. If the municipal government punished these cadres who dared to take responsibility, wouldn't it just fall into the trap of criminals and encourage this evil trend? If the leaders of Changshan County were punished this time, such things would emerge one after another in the future.

Those who opposed Ji Tao said that in any case, this was also a problem with the work style and methods of the Changshan County Party Committee and County Government, and they failed to do the mass work well. Otherwise, how could they attract the masses to sit in?

Ji Tao took out a copy of Li Ping's confession. He said that the Changshan County government had already done a very good job when shutting down the quarries, and had promised to arrange suitable work for the workers of those quarries. Therefore, the criminals could not find real quarry workers to sit in, and could only hire some fake workers.

Ji Tao said, doesn't this just prove that the work of the Changshan County Party Committee and County Government is in place? Yesterday, our comrades were at the scene, and it can be seen what kind of rabble those people were. Should we punish our comrades just because of this?

Shouldn't the Changshan County Party Committee and County Government shut down those quarries mining in violation of regulations? Whose interests did they touch to cause such a thing? There must be an inside story behind this. I suggest continuing to dig deep and find out the real inside story.

For the Changshan County Party Committee and County Government, they must absolutely not be punished. Otherwise, it would chill the hearts of comrades who truly dare to do things. In the future, everyone will not seek merit but seek no fault. Then how can our Yulin City develop, and how can our country develop? Our cadres have all become a group of mediocre and muddled officials!

Ji Tao's words were loud and clear, leaving many people stunned. They hadn't seen Ji Tao have such a good relationship with the leaders of Changshan County before? Why did he support them so strongly this time?

Ren Guisheng had not expressed his opinion. He just smoked one cigarette after another. The smoke in front of him was lingering, and his face didn't look very clear behind the smoke, appearing a bit gloomy.

Seeing that no one spoke again, Shi Deyou smiled. He threw another cigarette to Ren Guisheng: "Mayor, express your opinion."

Ren Guisheng took the cigarette, hesitated to speak, and finally, he shook his head and said, "I have no opinion. Let you, Secretary, summarize it."

Shi Deyou nodded and said, "Comrades, this incident in Changshan County has been found out. It is criminals hiring people to sit in at the municipal government, wanting to put pressure on the city to achieve their ulterior motives. It is an organized and premeditated criminal act. The comrades of the Changshan County Party Committee and County Government handled it in a timely and effective manner, and soon resolved this sit-in action."

"Changshan County has already written the cause and effect of this incident into a report and sent it to the city. Everyone can take a look. From the report, there is no problem in the handling of this incident by Changshan County. Their shutting down of those quarries mining in violation of regulations is completely reasonable and legal. If this is the case, they should not be punished. Otherwise, if criminals are hit and follow suit in the future, then what?"

"Of course, we don't know whether the real situation is as stated in Changshan County's report. Therefore, I suggest that the municipal Party committee and municipal government send a joint investigation team to investigate the action of Changshan County shutting down the quarries, focusing on whether the Changshan County Party Committee and County Government really have violations in it. How to deal with it specifically, wait until the investigation results come down."

Shi Deyou's words supported the Changshan County Party Committee and County Government to a certain extent, and did not immediately draw a conclusion on the nature of the incident. His proposal to send an investigation team to investigate the truth of the incident was even more prudent. No one could say anything. He was the big leader, so as soon as his proposal was put forward, everyone raised their hands to agree.

Next was to determine the members of the investigation team. After discussion, it was finally decided to draw personnel from the Municipal Party Committee Office, Municipal Government Office, Organization Department, and other departments to form this investigation team. The highest level among them was Liu Wentian, the deputy director of the Municipal Party Committee Office, who also became the leader of this investigation team.

People from these departments formed the investigation team, and there were no personnel from the discipline inspection and public security, procuratorate, and law departments. This was also what Shi Deyou did specifically, so that the political meaning of the investigation team was diluted, and he wanted the investigation team to conduct the investigation as fairly and objectively as possible.

In fact, according to the opinions of some standing committee members, it was mainly to send people from the discipline inspection commission down to investigate. If this was really the case, then the political meaning of sending the investigation team this time would be completely different. It was not ruled out that there would be speculators in Changshan County who would bite indiscriminately, causing unnecessary interference to the investigation work.

The investigation team arrived in Changshan County that day and began the investigation into the incident of Changshan County shutting down the quarries. Although Shi Deyou's approach had diluted the political meaning of this investigation action as much as possible, after all, it was an investigation team sent by the superior, and it was an investigation team sent after the sit-in incident, which still made many people worry about Xue Xingyuan and Ling Anguo.

Xue Xingyuan and Ling Anguo were very calm. Except for the first day to welcome the investigation team, they did not accompany the investigation team for the rest of the time. This was also to avoid suspicion. After all, the investigation team mainly investigated their affairs. If they accompanied them throughout the process, it seemed like they were interfering with the investigation.

Su Xinghui didn't take this investigation as a big deal either. He knew that since it was an investigation team proposed by Shi Deyou, Shi Deyou must have a way to control it and would not let the investigation team be interfered with by some other factors. As long as the investigation team was fair and objective, Xue Xingyuan and Ling Anguo would be fine.

The evidence of those quarries mining in violation of regulations was conclusive. Is there anything wrong with shutting them down? And the county made suitable arrangements for those workers. They didn't participate in the sit-in this time. Doesn't this already explain their attitude? People's hearts have a scale. They know what to say.

In the past few days, Su Xinghui has been receiving a CCTV film crew. This film crew was naturally invited by Yu Ruizhi. They are developing tourism in Changshan County, so they naturally need to shoot a scenery documentary to create momentum. Therefore, Yu Ruizhi invited the film crew from CCTV again to Changshan County to shoot a scenery documentary. The director this time was still the famous Fu Weiping.

Now it is early May. For Changshan County, it is the season of late spring and early summer. This is one of the most beautiful seasons of the year. It is just the right time to shoot this scenery documentary at this time.

The CCTV film crew first went to the Propaganda Department of the Hubei Provincial Party Committee to contact them to go to Changshan County for shooting. The Propaganda Department of the Hubei Provincial Party Committee sent a director to accompany them to the Yulin Municipal Party Committee Propaganda Department, and then Ji Tao personally accompanied them to Changshan County. The Propaganda Department of the Changshan County Party Committee sent people to accompany their shooting throughout the process.

On the first day of the film crew's arrival, Xue Xingyuan and Ling Anguo held a banquet to entertain them. They were very happy about the arrival of the CCTV film crew. They knew that this was the best publicity for Changshan County and would have infinite benefits for the future of Changshan County.
