"I heard Deputy Mayor Xiao talk about you-" Tan Weihong said directly after seeing Chen Mingluo.
"Oh?" Chen Mingluo was very surprised, but from this point of view, the relationship between Tan Weihong and Xiao Mingxue should be very good, otherwise it would be impossible to talk about these family matters.
"Deputy Mayor Xiao said that among friends, your father Chen Tongda is someone who can trust unconditionally." Tan Weihong first explained to Chen Mingluo why he met him, and then told him some of the things that happened recently.
This time, it was indeed caused by Wang Ciming and his group.
The turmoil in the Mingyang City officialdom was that the municipal party secretary Cai Sushan went to the Central Party School to study. According to the provincial arrangement, Cai Sushan would be transferred to the province to serve as executive vice governor after study. Therefore, in order to compete for the position of mayor of Mingyang City, several municipal party leaders secretly launched a battle for power and throne.
In the Mingyang Municipal Party Committee, including Mayor Deng Siquan, there are four deputy secretaries, the other three are deputy secretary Deng Daofang, deputy secretary and secretary Wang Ciming, and deputy secretary and executive vice mayor Xiao Mingxue.
According to the wishes of the municipal party committee secretary Cai Sushan, she hopes that after Deng Siquan is promoted to the municipal party committee secretary, Wang Ciming, secretary of the municipal party committee deputy secretary of the discipline inspection committee, can become mayor.
However, based on political achievements and people's will, Xiao Mingxue, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee and executive vice mayor, has a high voice and is likely to succeed Deng Siquan as mayor of Mingyang City.
In mid-August, in order to compete for the position of mayor, under the remote command of Cai Sushan, who had already gone to the Central Party School to study, some people with power in Mingyang City secretly got into trouble and began a planned and step-by-step "reversal project".
On the morning of August 18, under their planning, the Linling District Procuratorate rushed to Mingyang City to announce that Mayor Deng Siquan was appointed as the secretary of the municipal party committee and executive vice mayor Xiao Mingxue presided over the work of the municipal government, and suddenly sent the chief, deputy general managers of Mingyang Xinghua Company Li Rong and Chen Meihua on the pretext of suspected misappropriation of funds.
"Although Xinghua Company is a joint venture, Li Rong and Chen Meihua are not my people, they cooperate well with me. They have been working happily in recent years, and the company's business is satisfactory." Tan Weihong said.
According to Tan Weihong, in the interrogation room of the Linling District Procuratorate, Li Rong and Chen Meihua were handcuffed and were humiliated, threatened, beaten, and even intimidated by pistols.
Inspired, induced and coerced by the interrogators, Chen Meihua told Prosecutor Wang Xiaoshan about lending 50,000 yuan to Executive Vice Mayor Xiao Mingxue, and repeatedly stated that this was just a private friendship issue and had nothing to do with public funds. The matter was also confirmed by General Manager Li Rong.
"On August 20, Secretary Sang of Xiling Provincial Party Committee personally went to the Mingyang Municipal Party Committee to announce that Mayor Deng Siquan will be the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, and Executive Vice Mayor Xiao Mingxue is the Acting Mayor to preside over the work of the Municipal Government." Tan Weihong said, "It is said that on this day, the Xiling Provincial Party Committee just announced that Xiao Mingxue's meeting to preside over the work of the Mingyang Municipal Government had not yet ended. Wang Ciming, deputy secretary of the Municipal Party Committee and secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, was very dissatisfied and left with his sleeves."
From the first day Xiao Mingxue presided over the work of the municipal government, those who participated in the anti-Xiao project accelerated their pace of action.
In order to convict Xiao Mingxue and to take him off as soon as possible, they invited the case handlers from the Anti-Corruption Bureau of the Provincial Procuratorate and arraigned Hong Kong businessman Tan Weihong in Mingyang the next day.
"When I was in the court, I heard that in two days, the three-level procuratorates at Xiling Province, Mingyang City, and Linling District, had interrogated more than 60 people, detained more than 20 innocent people who had economic relations with Xiao Mingxue, as well as Xiao Mingxue's secretary and driver." Tan Weihong said to Chen Mingluo, then touched his hair, and said with lingering fear, "Fortunately, I am a Hong Kong businessman, otherwise I would never be able to come out this time. I am very ashamed. In order to escape, I was forced to perform perjury. This is also the reason why I said so many things to you. I don't want Deputy Mayor Xiao to bear false charges because of my unwilling words."
After the exchanges between the two ranks, Chen Mingluo was already very clear. Wang Ciming and his gang could not find Xiao Mingxue's economic problems, so they began to think about it. They knew about the private loan incident between Xiao Mingxue and Chen Meihua from somewhere, so they used this big thing to try to exaggerate the incident as embezzling public funds for bribery and bribery, so as to achieve the goal of overthrowing Xiao.
"What is the fact?" Chen Mingluo first had to figure out the whole story of the 50,000 yuan loan, so that he could determine whether Xiao Mingxue could be relieved of the crime.
"This is the truth-" Tan Weihong said.
After graduating from university, Xiao Mingxue was assigned to work in Mingyang City for more than ten years. During these ten years, due to his outstanding work achievements and significant results, he was awarded the title of young and middle-aged experts with outstanding contributions, and was elected as a representative of the National People's Congress and the Executive Vice Mayor of Mingyang City. He has a high prestige in Mingyang City.
In December 1992, Mingyang Xinghua Real Estate Development Company, jointly established by Mingyang Radio Components Factory and Hong Kong Xinghua Electronics Company, decided to jointly build Huaxing Building. After seeing this application report, as the deputy mayor in charge, Xiao Mingxue gave care and support according to normal practice, and through this matter, he met the directors of Hong Kong Xinghua Company, Hong Kong businessman Tan Weihong and general manager of Mingyang Xinghua Company, Li Rong, etc.
Although she is the deputy mayor, Xiao Mingxue's family is in a difficult situation. Her child is in school and her mother is seriously ill. All the expenses at home depend on the couple's salary.
In June 1993, Chen Meihua, deputy general manager of Mingyang Xinghua Company, who had always been friends with Xiao Mingxue's wife Xie Lu, saw that Xiao Mingxue's family was in financial difficulties, so he discussed with General Manager Li Rong, and wanted to fund some of the money to help Xiao Mingxue's fellow disciple overcome the difficulties.
When Chen Meihua told Xiao Mingxue about this plan, Xiao Mingxue said he would not accept it. Later, due to the death of his father, he really needed money in urgent need. Xie Lu borrowed 50,000 yuan in cash from Chen Meihua in early 1994.
In early 1995, when Tan Weihong and Chen Meihua reported to Xiao Mingxue, they learned that Xiao Mingxue was in financial difficulties and told him that you don’t need to pay back the 50,000 yuan you borrowed, and I will bear everything.
After Xiao Mingxue learned that the 50,000 yuan borrowed by his wife Xie Lu from Chen Meihua was related to Tan Weihong, he quickly called Tan Weihong to his office and handed over the 50,000 yuan cash to Tan Weihong, and told him that this was a 50,000 yuan loan returned to their company. Please check and send a receipt.
When Tan Weihong received the 50,000 yuan, his expression was very awkward, but he admired Xiao Mingxue's behavior of not accepting any money, and felt that this was indeed a public servant of the people.
