The confrontation between the two sides continues.
Of course, Liu Qingyu still calmly leaned on the chair, crossed his legs, closed his eyes and meditated. The sun in the sky was so blazing, but Liu Qingyu didn't have the slightest fear. On the contrary, he seemed to enjoy it very much.
Behind him, all his subordinates were carefully inspecting a passing truck. Only after multiple waves of all-round inspections confirmed that it was correct, they would release the truck. For their The truck drivers understand these behaviors very well. Although Zhou Zhihua and the others are very angry, they are helpless because their territory is limited to the customs clearance yard. Outside of here, they need the cooperation of the police if they want to take action. With the current tense relationship between the two parties, cooperation is definitely impossible. As long as no conflict breaks out, it will be fine.
Two hours later, investigators from the Jixiang Provincial Party Committee and people led by the Deputy Commissioner of Customs of Jixiang Province arrived almost at the same time.
Chang Zhiping and Qiu Daqi got out of their respective cars, exchanged greetings, and walked over to Liu Qingyu and the others.
When everyone saw the tense confrontation at the scene, Chang Zhiping immediately called Liu Qingyu over and criticized angrily: "Comrade Liu Qingyu, what are you doing? Why are you so tense with the comrades at the customs?" .”
Although he was speaking in a critical tone, Liu Qingyu could hear a hint of care and support from Chang Zhiping's demeanor. What's more, since Chang Zhiping appeared here in person, it meant that in this incident , Secretary Chu of the Provincial Party Committee firmly supports him, which makes him more confident.
Therefore, after Chang Zhiping asked, Liu Qingyu immediately said in a tone full of grievance: "Secretary Chang, we are really aggrieved. It is not that our Lanshan Municipal Bureau wants to fight with the comrades of the Customs Confrontation, but they have to confront us. Look, our Municipal Bureau is just carrying out our normal official operations, but the comrades of the Customs and Anti-Smuggling Bureau have to pile up so much force at the gate, as if they are afraid of us It's like breaking in to conduct a search, Secretary General, I feel like there's something wrong here."
"What's the problem?" Chang Zhiping deliberately followed Liu Qingyu's intention and continued to ask.
Liu Qingyu said: "Secretary-General, think about it, we have received reports from the masses that there is a large amount of smuggled items in a batch of goods in the customs clearance yard. In order to show the importance of this operation, I personally took people there. I wanted to cooperate with the Anti-Smuggling Bureau in investigating the case, but the Anti-Smuggling Bureau tried to evade and deny it in every possible way. They just refused to let us in to investigate. Now they even sent a large number of forces to block the door, obviously because they were afraid that we would go in. Find this batch of goods."
Speaking of this, Liu Qingyu once again threw out a batch of heavyweight information: "Secretary-General, you see, this is the accurate information that our police intelligence officers have just obtained through some formal channels. The batch reported by the masses contained a large number of The goods of smuggled goods have been cleared through the customs without any obstacles. All the customs clearance procedures have been completed, and the last step is to transport the goods away. You said, if our Lanshan City Bureau does not send people If we set up a card here and check carefully, if that batch of goods is really shipped out from the customs, it will definitely have a huge impact on the normal social and economic order of our Lanshan City and even our Jixiang Province, and if this batch of goods is shipped out Yes, it will also be a huge loss to our tariff revenue.”
As he spoke, Liu Qingyu handed a piece of information in his hand to Chang Zhiping.
Chang Zhiping took it and looked at it carefully. After he finished reading it, his face suddenly darkened.
At this time, Zhou Zhihua came over, wanting to see what was recorded in the information in Chang Zhiping's hand, but he did not expect that as soon as Zhou Zhihua came over, he blocked Liu Qingyu, grabbed his arm and said: " Oops, I said Deputy Commissioner Zhou, Director Zhou, you can't read this information, otherwise if you tip off the information and cause this batch of goods to be switched or even burned, it will be troublesome. Of course, This possibility is very small, because we already have five drones circling and filming at the scene, and everyone and their actions are under our surveillance. Anyone who dares to make any small moves at this time is simply seeking death."
After being treated like this by Liu Qingyu, Zhou Zhihua's face became uncertain, and he snorted coldly at Liu Qingyu and said: "Liu Qingyu, you are talking nonsense. I can tell you clearly that every comrade of our Lanshan Customs strictly follows the customs clearance procedures. The process is in operation. Each of our operating procedures has strict regulations. If it is found that some goods contain smuggled items, they will never escape the supervision of our customs. And our Anti-Smuggling Bureau seizes smuggled items every year. It is worth hundreds of millions of yuan, and we have made outstanding contributions to Lanshan Customs."
After finishing speaking, Zhou Zhihua looked at Chang Zhiping and said: "Secretary-general Permanent Secretary, I want to complain to your provincial party committee that Liu Qingyu framed him, talked nonsense, and slandered the reputation of our Lanshan Customs."
Chang Zhiping did not comment on Zhou Zhihua's words and dismissed them. Instead, he stared at Liu Qingyu and said: "Comrade Liu Qingyu, are you sure that this batch of goods does contain smuggled items?"
Liu Qingyu said firmly: "Secretary General, to be honest, we originally only received reports from the masses and wanted to cooperate with the Customs Anti-Smuggling Bureau in handling the case, but now, things have evolved to this point. This has to be done. Let me acknowledge the accuracy of the information reported by the people, because the person who reported it once told us that he had reported relevant information to the Customs Anti-Smuggling Bureau many times, but never once did the information he reported get approval from the Anti-Smuggling Bureau. Admittedly, the Anti-Smuggling Bureau has not taken any relevant action, and he has even been personally threatened and retaliated for reporting. Therefore, I seriously suspect that there are serious problems with Lanshan Customs, and some smugglers have even interacted with certain customs officials. Power departments collude with each other to form a community of interests. Otherwise, why would our normal law enforcement actions be so strongly hindered?"
Liu Qingyu just finished speaking, and before Chang Zhiping could express his position, Zhou Zhihua said angrily: "Liu Qingyu, you are talking nonsense. Let me tell you, the reason why we want to stop you is because of your Lanshan City We did not follow the normal procedures at all. Although we can cooperate with the work of your Lanshan City police, we will never allow anything that insults the dignity of our customs to happen in the process of cooperation."
Hearing what Zhou Zhihua said, Chang Zhiping said in a positive tone: "Well, what Comrade Zhou Zhihua said makes sense. This procedure and dignity are both very important."
Zhou Zhihua was overjoyed when he heard this, and said to himself: "It seems that the leaders of this province are more sensible." But he said: "Please ask the Secretary-General to uphold justice for us."
Chang Zhiping nodded: "I will definitely preside over this justice. What Comrade Zhou Zhihua said is very reasonable, but what Comrade Liu Qingyu said is not unreasonable. So, in order to prove the innocence of both of you, in order to see a To see which of your parties is responsible for this incident, the purpose of our Provincial Party Committee Investigation and Coordination Group is coordination. I suggest that our Provincial Party Committee Investigation and Coordination Group, Provincial Customs, Lanshan City Public Security Bureau and your Lanshan City Anti-Smuggling Bureau and Lanshan Customs formed a joint law enforcement team to enter the customs clearance cargo yard according to the reporting information provided by Comrade Liu Qingyu. If it is found that smuggled items are indeed found in the goods, and this batch of items has indeed been processed All customs clearance procedures will definitely be borne by Lanshan Customs. On the contrary, if no problems are found, then the responsibility will be borne by the Lanshan City Public Security Bureau."
Having said this, Chang Zhiping looked at Qiu Daqi, Deputy Commissioner of the Provincial Customs and said: "How about it, Deputy Commissioner Qiu, do you think my proposal is feasible?"
Qiu Daqi frowned and pondered for a moment and said: "I don't agree with the proposal of the Secretary-General. I think your proposal is a bit unsound and is biased towards the Lanshan City Public Security Bureau..."
Then, Qiu Daqi gave a lot of specious reasons. In fact, the reasons he said were just strong words, and none of them were legitimate. However, he just said it outright.
As a result, the scene suddenly fell into a confrontation again, and this time the level of the confrontation was even higher.
At this moment, two cars sped forward, braked with a squeak and stopped on the side of the road. Everyone turned around and saw that they were two Beijing brand cars.
Soon, three people got out of two cars.
When Qiu Daqi saw the people getting out of the car behind him, he was startled for a moment, then quickly walked over and said to the person walking in the front very respectfully: "Director Ma, why are you here?"
Director Ma glanced at Qiu Daqi and said solemnly: "I heard that something happened at your Lanshan Customs, so I came here to see what the situation is like here."
Qiu Daqi immediately reported what had just happened to Director Ma. Director Ma's face suddenly darkened: "Comrade Qiu Daqi, I feel that Comrade Chang Zhiping's proposal is very good. Why do you oppose it?"
"Um...I..." Qiu Daqi was a little confused about Director Ma's attitude.
"What are you, Comrade Qiu Daqi, remember, if you don't do anything bad, don't be afraid of ghosts calling the door. If there are no problems at Lanshan Customs, why should you be afraid of the investigation team's search? This time, I was entrusted by the General Administration to investigate and deal with it. Regarding the problem with your Lanshan Customs, there are also comrades from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection who came with me. Let’s go to the scene together and take a look. We will know if there is any problem with your Lanshan Customs.”
The sudden appearance of Director Ma caused a huge change in the situation at the entire scene. The mentality of many people at the scene had a huge change. Especially Qiu Daqi looked at the three people who had passed by him before, and felt in his heart A little trembling, he did not expect that those three people were actually from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.
