Chapter 4249
All of Liang Guoguang's brothers and sisters were farmers. Although the income of farmers had risen under Su Xinghui's governance in the past two years, it was still quite low compared to urban income. Therefore, this time treating his father's illness, Liang Guoguang was the main force, and he could only support it alone.
In the past year or two, Liang Guoguang borrowed from all his friends, but for this kind of thing, borrowing once or twice was okay, but for long-term borrowing, no one was willing to lend to him.
So, Liang Guoguang thought of the idea of inscribing for others to earn writing fees. At first, the writing fee he collected wasn't high, which was considered a normal market price. Later, his family needed money more and more, so he increased the writing fee. Many enterprises had requests for him, and even enterprises that didn't request him, seeing that Liang Guoguang was a director and was promoted by Su Xinghui himself, were willing to spend money to buy his inscriptions.
Therefore, in the recent period, Liang Guoguang inscribed for more than 30 units and enterprises, collecting a total of more than 200,000 yuan in writing fees, all of which were used to treat his father's illness and repay debts.
Now, Liang Guoguang had used up all this money completely, not leaving a penny, and still owed a lot of debt. Although he surrendered, he no longer had the strength to return the stolen money.
Hearing Qiu Ze's words, Su Xinghui looked pained.
Liang Guoguang was indeed a cadre he promoted himself. Although his degree wasn't high, his ability was relatively strong, and his previous work performance was also very good, otherwise he wouldn't have been promoted.
But now, Liang Guoguang had fallen. Him falling was a small matter, but the effort Su Xinghui spent on him over the years was also in vain.
One must know how difficult it was to cultivate a qualified cadre. If Liang Guoguang continued to perform well, Su Xinghui even planned to promote him to deputy mayor next time. But now, it was all over.
Su Xinghui asked astringently: "Did he have any interest exchange with those units and enterprises?"
Qiu Ze said: "A construction company asked him to inscribe a piece of calligraphy, spending 20,000 yuan. He helped say hello and handed over a county library renovation project to that construction company. In addition, there were some government procurement projects in the cultural department, which were also handed over to some interest parties who asked him to inscribe because he said hello."
Su Xinghui angrily slapped the tea table in front of him, and the teacup on the tea table jumped up, and the tea spilled all over the tea table. Qiu Ze quickly took a few tissues, wiped the tea clean, and threw it into the trash can.
Su Xinghui said: "He had things at home, didn't he know to ask the organization for help? Did he have to do such sneaky things? Being a good person, he had to be a ghost!"
Qiu Ze naturally understood Su Xinghui's mood very well. He was hating that iron wouldn't become steel. A cadre focused on by the organization went astray. What a painful thing this was!
However, Qiu Ze still said: "Sigh, Secretary Su, for this kind of thing, I'm afraid the organization can't help much."
Su Xinghui was silent. He naturally knew what a terrible disease chronic myeloid leukemia was. Although the pharmaceutical factory of the Mi Group could produce special medicine to treat this disease, making the treatment cost of this disease more than half lower than before, the cost to maintain treatment was still an astronomical figure.
According to the current drug price, the annual drug cost and nutrition cost for this disease were no less than 200,000 yuan. For the working class, this 200,000 yuan was indeed an unbearable weight.
Even if Liang Guoguang asked the organization for help, the organization couldn't directly reimburse his father's drug costs, but could only donate. However, could this kind of thing be donated every year? It was easy to donate once or twice, but donating every year wasn't realistic.
Speaking of which, Liang Guoguang, as the director of the Culture Bureau, a regular division-level cadre, couldn't afford the money to treat his father's illness, which also reflected from the side that Liang Guoguang was relatively clean before.
This time, his behavior of collecting writing fees for inscribing was understandable, but being understandable didn't mean it could be forgiven. This was what made Su Xinghui most painful.
Qiu Ze asked: "Secretary Su, how do you think this should be handled?"
Su Xinghui said decisively: "According to relevant regulations, handle it as it should be handled!"
Qiu Ze nodded. Su Xinghui's words decided Liang Guoguang's fate. Although Liang Guoguang had excusable reasons, he still had to pay the due price.
Qiu Ze shook his head gently and said: "Sigh, no wonder there is a saying that there is nothing you can't have, but you can't have no money, and there is nothing you can't have, but you can't have a disease. Once you get this kind of disease, even a regular division-level cadre can't afford it, let alone the common people?"
Su Xinghui nodded and said: "Yes, this situation should indeed be changed."
Qiu Ze didn't say anything else. He stood up and said: "Secretary Su, then I will take my leave first."
Su Xinghui said: "Okay, you still have to continue to investigate this case."
Qiu Ze nodded knowingly and left the Su family.
After Su Xinghui pondered for a long time, he called Mi Xiuyuan and told him about Liang Guoguang's matter.
As soon as Mi Xiuyuan heard it, he knew Su Xinghui's meaning. He asked Su Xinghui: "Do you hope that our Mi Group's pharmaceutical factory will provide medicine for Liang Guoguang's father to treat his illness?"
Su Xinghui said: "Yes, Brother Xiuyuan, since I know about this, I can't watch his father wait for death. But our government can't spend such a large sum of money to help him reimburse drug costs, and after all, he is a serious violation of law and discipline. If the government still helps his family reimburse drug costs, it will cause bad associations. So it is better for you to come forward."
Mi Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Okay, leave this matter to me. It just so happens that our pharmaceutical factory's new medicine needs some volunteers for clinical trials. When the time comes, let his father be this volunteer."
Su Xinghui said: "Be a volunteer?"
Mi Xiuyuan understood Su Xinghui's concerns. Being a volunteer for new drug clinical trials still had certain risks. Currently, in third-world countries like India, many people were volunteers for large pharmaceutical companies in the United States and Western Europe, and their mortality rate was still quite high.
If Liang Guoguang's father was allowed to be this volunteer and something happened in the end, then a good thing would turn into a bad thing.
Mi Xiuyuan said: "Don't worry about this. I will let him be this volunteer, and he won't have any major risks, because our new medicine is already relatively mature and has passed several strict clinical trial stages, and the effect is already quite good. The possibility of accidents is minimal."
Su Xinghui said: "Okay, Brother Xiuyuan, then leave this matter to you, thank you!"
