In the dark night, on the highway, Zhang Shuncheng and Zhou Junhao's cars were driving slowly in the storm.
Zhang Shuncheng sat in the car, looking out the window at the increasingly intense storm, with a faint smile on his lips.
Although the wind and rain outside the window were raging at the moment, his heart had gradually calmed down. He had already communicated with Tang Wenguang, who told him that the application documents for Liu Qingyu's Shuanggui had been placed on the desk of Peng Fusheng, deputy secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. All it takes is Secretary Peng's last signature. As long as Secretary Peng signs, Liu Qingyu will be double-checked. Moreover, Secretary Peng has already told He Mingru to go to his office to pick up the documents tomorrow morning. Come, basically means that Liu Qingyu will be double-regulated by tomorrow morning at the latest.
Zhang Shuncheng believes that as long as Liu Qingyu is cheated, even if Chu Guocai, secretary of the provincial party committee, values him, he will not be able to overturn the case. At that time, he will only need to find a way to spend more money to protect his son Zhang Jinlong. If you can move around, even if you can't rescue your son, you can at least get a lighter sentence. That will definitely be no problem. If you are only sentenced to four or five years in prison, you only need to rely on some connections in the prison and find some acquaintances. , after spending a little more money to get his son out on medical parole, basically he will be released within a short time of being in jail.
At this moment, Zhou Junhao, who was sitting in the car behind Zhang Shuncheng's car, was in a very different mood than Zhang Shuncheng.
Zhou Junhao was sitting in the car, carefully considering the current situation in Lanshan City. He was carefully thinking about Zhang Shuncheng's trip to the Provincial Party Committee. He didn't know what was going on, but he suddenly had a premonition that this time he had passed by. After that, Zhang Shuncheng may never come back, but he can't explain why he feels this way, because so far, he has been competing with Zhang Shuncheng for so many years, but he has never found that Zhang Shuncheng can leave him anything. A fatal handle, but he always felt that Zhang Shuncheng was likely to fall into Liu Qingyu's hands this time, because Liu Qingyu's actions were always unexpected.
This is also the real reason why after he failed to compete with Liu Qingyu one after another, he learned from the pain and decided not to provoke Liu Qingyu for the time being, unless he could find an opportunity to completely defeat Liu Qingyu in one fell swoop, just like this time Liu Qingyu was the mastermind of the Shuanggui incident.
As he got closer and closer to the provincial capital, Zhou Junhao's feeling became stronger and stronger. He couldn't help but frown and began to make calculations based on his own thinking. If Zhang Shuncheng could never go back after this meeting, , what exactly should I do?
I have been in the position of mayor for some years. It stands to reason that if Zhang Shuncheng steps down, I will still have the opportunity to fill this position. But the question is, I have been working with Zhang Shuncheng for so many years. If something happens to Zhang Shuncheng, will I be affected? Implicated, how should I avoid this crisis and find ways to turn the crisis into an opportunity?
In the officialdom, everything must be premeditated and planned in advance, especially for certain important positions. The earlier you start, the more favorable the situation will be for you.
Suddenly, Zhou Junhao began to think carefully about his next trip.
When Zhang Shuncheng and Zhou Junhao came to the provincial capital and stayed in a hotel near the Provincial Party Committee, Zhou Junhao did not rest immediately. Instead, he made several phone calls in succession. After that, he was busy the whole night until about 1 o'clock in the morning. Returning to the hotel, he fell asleep peacefully with a calm smile on his face.
At this moment, the storm still shows no sign of letting up. On the contrary, it is getting heavier and heavier. There are already many road sections in the provincial capital with water accumulation. At this time, many people have fallen asleep, but the hard-working sanitation workers have begun to work hard.
The next morning, Zhang Shuncheng woke up. It was already 7 o'clock in the morning. He opened the curtains and found that the cloudy sky last night had become clear. The bright sunshine shone in and warmed his body.
Just after he finished washing up, Zhou Junhao knocked on the door of the room. The two of them had a simple breakfast in the hotel's cafeteria, then drove to the provincial party committee compound and entered the conference room ten minutes early.
When they came in, there were already many people sitting in the medium-sized conference room. The two of them greeted their acquaintances and then sat on the seats belonging to Arashiyama City with their names written on them.
After he sat down, people kept coming from outside one after another. However, these people were very measured and basically all arrived five minutes before the meeting officially started.
At this moment, the leaders of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee also began to walk in one after another and sat down in their respective seats.
At 8:30 sharp, according to normal procedures, Provincial Party Committee Secretary Chu Guocai and the Governor should have arrived at the conference room by this time. However, a full five minutes have passed, and the two have not arrived yet, and they have not arrived either. There was actually another person who came over, and that was Peng Fusheng, secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection.
In the conference room, the first and second leaders from various prefectures and cities across the province were originally very careful about their appearance and maintained a respectful and waiting attitude. However, as time went by, after ten minutes, everyone could no longer hold their nerves. They started to whisper and talk and stood up one after another.
You know, if the first and second leaders of the provincial party committee are late at the same time, it is understandable. However, if there is another secretary of the provincial discipline inspection commission, this matter is unusual. What happened will make the three The boss is late at the same time.
Just when everyone was getting more and more anxious, the door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open, and Chu Guocai, secretary of the provincial party committee, was the first to walk in from the outside, but his face looked very serious.
Behind Chu Guocai, Governor Chen Zhiqin and Secretary of the Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission Peng Fusheng also walked in with solemn expressions and sat down in their respective seats.
Chu Guocai sat down on the rostrum and glanced majestically around the conference room. The conference room, which had been filled with some discussion, suddenly became quiet.
This is the authority of the top leader. No one dares to touch Chu Guocai's brows at this time, because everyone already knows the provincial party committee secretary. He is a strong top leader who works very principledly.
After Chu Guocai glanced around, he said with a gloomy face: "Today, Comrade Chen Zhiqin and Comrade Peng Fusheng and I were late, and we were ten minutes late. For this, I apologize to everyone on behalf of them two. It's our fault for being late for the meeting."
After saying that, Chu Guocai, Chen Zhiqin, and Peng Fusheng stood up at the same time and bowed slightly to apologize to everyone.
After the three of them sat down again, Chu Guocai's face became even more gloomy: "I believe everyone must be very curious as to why the three of us were late together. So now, I can reveal the mystery to you."
As he spoke, Chu Guocai clapped his hands gently. At the same time, the door of the conference room opened again, and six Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection staff wearing black suits walked in from the outside.
When they saw someone from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection walking in, everyone at the scene suddenly took a breath.
Everyone is smart. They know that today, some of the people present may be unlucky. However, they also know that everyone present is department-level officials, and they are all the first and second leaders of various prefectures and cities. They are all at the department level. Who is so unlucky to be taken away from a meeting like this?
After just a short while, the meeting once again became a bit chaotic. Many people were talking quietly in private. Of course, there were also many people with serious expressions on their faces, even nervously staring at the disciplinary committee members.
Seeing these people walking in, Zhou Junhao's heart began to beat violently. At this moment, he didn't know whether he should be happy or sad, because he was basically sure that today's meeting was essentially a Hongmen banquet. , and the protagonist at the Hongmen Banquet is probably his old partner and rival Zhang Shuncheng. If his hunch is true, then Zhang Shuncheng will definitely be doomed, and his deployment last night will be fully effective, but the problem will also arise. In the future, once Zhang Shuncheng falls, the political structure of Lanshan City will undergo huge changes. In such a short period of time, it is impossible for his own status to influence the overall situation of Lanshan City. Then Lanshan City will Which trend it develops will no longer be under your control.
At this moment, Zhou Junhao felt very complicated inside.
Zhang Shuncheng, who was sitting next to Zhou Junhao, had a serious face at the moment. His expression looked very calm, but there was a huge wave in his heart. He thought to himself: "Could it be that these people from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection are here to target me? Right, but I don’t have any reason to be caught by the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. Well, they probably weren’t here to catch me. I wonder which guy would be unlucky, but they weren’t here to catch me. Why do two of the staff members look at me from time to time? They are sweeping towards me. Heaven, earth, Tathagata Buddha, Jade Emperor, I pray to you. I hope that the person who is arrested will not be me. I am your devout believer."
While Zhang Shuncheng was praying, Provincial Party Committee Secretary Chu Guocai suddenly said in a deep voice: "According to the conclusive report information that the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection just received this morning, Lanshan City Party Committee Secretary Zhang Shuncheng not only has serious corruption problems, but is also suspected of other crimes. Regarding the illegal behavior, after discussions with Governor Chen and Comrade Peng Fusheng, and after requesting instructions from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, I decided to impose double regulations on Comrade Zhang Shuncheng."
After Chu Guocai finished speaking, the entire audience was shocked. Everyone present looked at Zhang Shuncheng, who was sitting at the back. At this moment, Zhang Shuncheng was completely stunned. Zhou Junhao's body also froze for a moment. He knew that his The premonition came true, Arashiyama City is really going to change.
