Chapter 2999

Liu Yunqing's audit work progressed relatively quickly. This was because when they moved into the relevant units, it was a surprise attack, not giving them much time to prepare, so they obtained complete first-hand materials, and it was relatively easy to obtain useful things from them.

Liu Yunqing grasped the key points of auditing bidding fraud very clearly. He had been doing audit work for many years and was very familiar with these fraudulent methods.

For example, in bid rigging or bid accompanying, the bid documents of the rigging companies were definitely made similarly, with only some differences in the quotation. Anyway, they had to ensure that the final winning company had the highest score. When auditing such fraudulent behavior, one had to carefully compare whether the bid documents of these companies were identical.

Another example was leaking the bid base price. The final winning company's quotation was definitely very close to the base price, possibly only a few tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands higher than the base price, to ensure they won the bid.

In short, as long as there was fraud in the bidding process, Liu Yunqing, relying on his rich audit experience, could definitely find clues. After that, digging deeper into suspicious areas and investigating and collecting evidence from the parties involved would make the matter almost certain.

Moreover, Liu Yunqing also had the materials provided by Su Xinghui in his hands. These materials clearly wrote which companies had fraudulent behavior and what the fraudulent behavior was, which made Liu Yunqing's investigation more targeted, and those fraudulent companies had nowhere to hide.

Just a few days later, Liu Yunqing found some clues. The fraudulent behavior of some companies could basically be confirmed, and some cadres of the Urban Construction Committee were suspected of participating in it. In addition, the bidding agency also had to be responsible.

During the audit process, Liu Yunqing constantly communicated with Su Xinghui and Xin Jing, exchanging some situations he investigated, so that Su Xinghui and Xin Jing could understand his work progress at any time.

Liu Yunqing's progress made many people panic. If he really audited some problems, a large group of people would be in trouble.

In the past two days, Zheng Wu-ping had sought out Cheng Kaibin several times, asking if the old man had spoken up. Cheng Kaibin said the old man had already spoken up, so there shouldn't be too much of a problem, and told Zheng Wu-ping to be patient.

Only then did Zheng Wu-ping feel slightly relieved. After all, Cheng Huangong was still a Vice Governor. Since he had spoken up, Xin Jing should give him some face. As for the audit still continuing, this was also very normal. Since the audit had already started, it couldn't just stop, and the formalities still had to be completed.

Zheng Wu-ping didn't dare to look for Cheng Kaibin again. Cheng Kaibin, a playboy like him, didn't have that much patience. If he made him impatient and he just gave up, then Zheng Wu-ping would be the one in trouble.

Su Xinghui had also received some calls these days. For example, Zhao Yichen had called him. A high-ranking cadre's child behind a company suspected of fraud heard that Zhao Yichen had a good relationship with Su Xinghui, so he went through channels to ask Zhao Yichen to intercede for him.

Zhao Yichen still had some friendship with that guy's father. He didn't know the situation very well, so he tried to call Su Xinghui to ask about the situation. After Su Xinghui told him the situation, he immediately gave up the idea of interceding for that guy.

Just kidding, he didn't want to get involved in such a thing. If he got shit all over his hands, that would be troublesome. If he soured his relationship with Su Xinghui because of this, that would be even less worth it.

After receiving these calls, Su Xinghui didn't take them to heart. For people he wasn't very familiar with, he pushed it off by saying this work wasn't under his charge and he didn't know the situation. For familiar friends, he told them the real situation, and others could basically understand him.

Fraud in bidding is a really serious problem.

Su Xinghui had also been quite busy these days. On this day, Zhu Jimin, the president of Baozhou College, came to his office to see him. He came for the matter of merging with several other schools in Baozhou City to establish Baozhou University.

Baozhou City's higher education work was not bad, with seven or eight large and medium-sized colleges and universities. Among them, Baozhou College was a comprehensive junior college, and the others were basically specialized large and medium-sized colleges and universities.

In recent years, the whole country had set off a craze for merging colleges and universities, and this craze had also been transmitted to Baozhou City. Baozhou College had the intention of merging and upgrading to Baozhou University. After upgrading to Baozhou University, not only could the school's scale expand significantly, but it could also recruit undergraduate students, and its competitiveness would greatly increase.

The schools Baozhou College wanted to merge with were Baozhou Medical College, Baozhou City Finance School, and Baozhou City Radio and Television University. However, those schools were not very willing to merge.

If the merger was successful, Baozhou College could be upgraded to a university, and Zhu Jimin, the president of Baozhou College, could naturally serve as the president of the new Baozhou University. But what should the leaders of those schools do?

China has always had the saying "better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of an ox." Those schools were not large in scale, nor were they considered rich, but in any case, being a president there was quite comfortable, with great autonomy.

But if they merged, the school scale would expand and the school name would sound better, but for these leaders, what benefits would there be?

Their presidents would mostly serve as vice presidents in the new Baozhou University. Although their rank would remain unchanged, their power would be much smaller. And other leaders probably wouldn't even get a vice president position, and it was unknown what position they would be given.

This unpredictable prospect made these people naturally unwilling to accept it. Rather than accepting such an unpredictable prospect, it was better to maintain the status quo.

Zhu Jimin, of course, tried his best to promote the success of the Baozhou University merger. If this matter could be promoted, he had a great probability of serving as the first president of Baozhou University. What a glorious thing this was! And what a great contribution!

Zhu Jimin had told Su Xinghui about this before, and now, he couldn't wait to find Su Xinghui again.

Because merging to establish such an undergraduate institution required approval from the State Council, and the approval time was in the third quarter of each year. Now it was July, which was the third quarter, so Zhu Jimin came.
