Chapter 667

In short, no matter from which aspect, this documentary was a masterpiece.

This documentary was divided into three episodes: upper, middle, and lower, and was broadcast during prime time on CCTV for three consecutive days. After being broadcast on Channel 1, it was then rebroadcast several times on Channel 2 and Channel 4. The ratings were very impressive, which was a very big improvement for the popularity of Shangjun County.

More than a month before the documentary was broadcast, the Shangjun County Tourism Development Company had developed many attractions in townships such as Menghuling and Green Ridge. These attractions also formed a certain reception capacity.

After the documentary "Beautiful Shangjun" was broadcast, tourists had already started to come to these attractions to play. Although they were only scattered, this was also a good start.

However, subsequently, an inharmonious incident occurred in Shangjun County, shocking the whole county.

In late April, the Pengjiawanzhen Government was attacked by a group of criminals. The town government was smashed, and many people were injured, among whom Town Head Hong Shilin was the most seriously injured. He had a concussion, and his ribs and right leg were fractured, so he was sent to the County People's Hospital for treatment.

The cause of the incident was not complicated. After Qi Jian and Hong Shilin took office, in accordance with the deployment of the County Party Committee and County Government, they cracked down on some hooligan gangs and black-evil forces within the jurisdiction of the town government, catching many people at once.

However, they didn't know the situation in Pengjiawanzhen too well. They didn't catch any important figures; the ringleaders like the "Five Tigers of the Peng Family" and the "Three Dragons of the Li Family" were not caught at all. They only caught some small fry and sent them to the county detention center.

The reason for this was that they had no foundation in Pengjiawanzhen and didn't have any truly capable people under them. As soon as they went to catch people, someone would tip off the criminals, letting those important figures run away in advance.

Precisely because of this, after those important figures ran away, they gathered together to discuss how to deal with the town government's actions. These people were used to being lawless. After they gathered together and drank some wine, once the alcohol went to their heads, they decided to gather people to attack the town government and exert pressure on the town government to release the people who had been caught.

This kind of thing sounded a bit unbelievable, but in that era, this kind of thing was not uncommon. In fact, even more than ten years later, in Su Xinghui's past life, he had also experienced casino owners uniting to attack the Shangjun County Public Security Bureau, the cause being merely because the Shangjun County Public Security Bureau, under pressure from superiors, swept a few casinos.

That time, the casino owners gathered hundreds of people to attack the Shangjun County Public Security Bureau. The Public Security Bureau actually closed the iron gate and was at a loss, finally agreeing to several conditions of the other party before letting those people disperse, which was talked about as a laughingstock for a time.

Therefore, this time, these hooligan gangs attacking the Pengjiawanzhen Government was not strange at all. The public security situation was poor in those years, and there were too many lawless things.

They gathered their subordinates, as well as the families of those who had been caught, totaling hundreds of people, to attack the town government. That day, Town Party Committee Secretary Qi Jian went to the county for a meeting, and Town Head Hong Shilin was at home. When he saw such a situation, he panicked and immediately ordered the iron gate of the town government to be closed, not letting these people in.

Hong Shilin didn't report to the county immediately either. He still intended to solve this matter in the town. He called the town police station and asked them to send people to solve this matter and disperse the people.

However, the police station had only a dozen people in total. Such a small number of people in front of hundreds of people was of no use at all. Moreover, several main cadres of the police station, including Director Yang Xinhua, were locals and had intricate relationships with these people who attacked the town government, so they were unwilling to put in any effort.

Later, Yang Xinhua actually suggested to Hong Shilin that Hong Shilin order the release of those who had been caught. Although Hong Shilin was afraid, when he heard such a suggestion, he still refused decisively, not giving any room for discussion.

Just kidding, if he, Hong Shilin, released people after being threatened like this, what prestige would he have left in the town? Besides, the people had already been sent to the county detention center, and it was a collective decision of the Town Party Committee when they were caught. He couldn't release them even if he wanted to now.

Other leaders of the Town Party Committee team were either at a loss or stood by and watched, seemingly waiting to see Hong Shilin's joke. Hong Shilin didn't dare to report to the county and couldn't find Qi Jian, so he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

Let's say that after Hong Shilin rejected his suggestion, Yang Xinhua immediately told this news to those waiting outside the door. Many of those people had drunk wine and were already difficult to control their emotions. Once they heard this news, they shouted together and exerted force together, pushing the iron gate down and rushing in.

After they rushed into the town government, they smashed the town government. Some staff members came out to block them but were also beaten and injured. When they saw Hong Shilin, they used fists and sticks together. At this time, Yang Xinhua and some town leaders were afraid that someone would die and the matter would be too big, so they came out to block them.

These people were all locals and had deep relationships with these criminals who attacked the town government. Some were even from the same village as these criminals or were relatives. They came out to block them, and the criminals then dispersed and fled in all directions.

Such a serious incident shocked the County Party Committee and County Government greatly. They immediately ordered the County Public Security Bureau to investigate this case and bring the criminals to justice. The Deputy Director of the County Public Security Bureau in charge of public security, Li Chengan, personally led a team to station in Pengjiawanzhen to take charge of this case of attacking the government.

However, Pengjiawanzhen Head Hong Shilin was seriously injured, especially his right leg, which had a comminuted fracture. It would be impossible to recover without more than half a year, and even if he recovered, he would be left with a disability. A new candidate for the Town Head of Pengjiawanzhen had to be designated.

Generally speaking, if a Town Head position is temporarily vacant, a suitable leader will be promoted from the Town Party Committee team to serve as the acting Town Head. However, the County Party Committee was precisely dissatisfied with the work of the Pengjiawanzhen team, which was why they transferred Qi Jian and Hong Shilin to be the top two leaders. How could they promote the existing people now?

Then they could only transfer from other departments in the county. Usually, such a Town Head vacancy would definitely make people flock to it, but this time, the cadres in Shangjun County who met the conditions were like mud bodhisattvas, motionless as a mountain, and not one of them sought activity from county leaders.

This situation didn't make Ji Tao and Zhang Kaishan strange. Hong Shilin went to Pengjiawanzhen to take office excitedly at that time. At that time, how high-spirited he was, but what was his end now? Who dared to go to Pengjiawanzhen to be this Town Head?

The County Party Committee and County Government sent people to be this Town Head precisely to grasp the work of Pengjiawanzhen. To grasp the work of Pengjiawanzhen, they had to offend these black-evil forces. If the work couldn't be grasped, they wouldn't be able to pass the test of the County Party Committee and County Government.

Let whoever wants to be this Town Head who pleases neither side be it. They would rather be peaceful officials and live their days of drinking tea and reading newspapers safely.

At the end of April, Su Xinghui received a call from Zhang Kaishan, asking him to go to the County Government. After receiving the call, Su Xinghui immediately rushed back to the County Government.

When Su Xinghui arrived at Zhang Kaishan's office, he unexpectedly saw that Ji Tao was also in Zhang Kaishan's room.

Ji Tao and Zhang Kaishan talked to Su Xinghui for more than an hour. That afternoon, the County Party Committee held a temporary Standing Committee meeting and announced a temporary personnel adjustment order, appointing Comrade Su Xinghui, Vice Township Head of Menghuling Township, as Deputy Secretary of the Pengjiawanzhen Party Committee and Acting Town Head, to take office immediately.

Once this order came out, it shocked the officialdom of Shangjun County again. Up to now, Su Xinghui had not worked for two years, but he had rocketed from a small clerk to the position of a regular section-level cadre, finishing the road that most cadres couldn't finish in a lifetime.

His promotion speed was simply incomparably astonishing. However, this time no one envied him for being so young and becoming an acting Town Head. Many people were worried for him, and many people were waiting to see his joke.

That place, Pengjiawanzhen, was a mud pit before, and now that this kind of thing happened, it became even more of a dragon's pool and tiger's den. Without great ability, it was impossible to play around.

Everyone could see Su Xinghui's background. With such a tough background, why go to muddy the waters of Pengjiawanzhen? He only needed to stay safely in Menghuling, and at most by next year, he could steadily go up a level. Going to Pengjiawan this time was a risky move for him.

Many people didn't understand what Su Xinghui was thinking, actually thinking of going to Pengjiawan to be this acting Town Head. However, no matter what, the County Standing Committee had already made a decision, and this decision could not be changed. Su Xinghui had to go to Pengjiawanzhen to take office as soon as possible, and he had to open up the situation as soon as possible. ===== CHAPTER 669 =====
