Just when Mao Liqiang was worried that he could not answer Liu Qingyu's question, Liu Qingyu spoke again.
"Comrade Mao Liqiang, I don't know why you expressed this view, but I want to read you a jingle made up by ordinary people first. Look at how the ordinary people of Dongjiang City view our officials and cadres in Dongjiang City now. ." Speaking of this, Liu Qingyu read loudly: "To pay close attention is to hold meetings, to manage is to charge, to pay attention is to slogan, to implement is to use words, to accept is to get drunk, to inspect is to have a banquet, to research is to talk nonsense, to achieve political results is to boast, and to report is to Mixing it with water and raising prices means it is in line with standards."
After finishing reading, Liu Qingyu looked at Mao Liqiang and said: "Comrade Mao Liqiang, what do you think of this jingle? Can it reflect the strange current situation of our officialdom in Dongjiang City?"
Mao Liqiang wanted to deny it, but after thinking about it, he had to admit that this jingle compiled by ordinary people did have many similarities with the current official situation in Dongjiang City. Almost a considerable number of officials in Dongjiang City now do not If they focus on how to do their jobs well, if they do something practical for the people, on the contrary, they put more energy on running for office, getting an official position, or even buying and selling an official position. They turn a blind eye and are indifferent to the living conditions of ordinary people. Even if their land is demolished or expropriated, or even people are hacked to death, burned to death, or poisoned by real estate developers, they will never do the same. Not willing to stand up and say a word for the people.
The reason why this phenomenon occurs is actually very clear to Mao Liqiang. Behind this strange situation is actually personal interests at work, because almost most real estate developers in Dongjiang City have one or even several Dongjiang people behind them. Officials of sufficient city level and even senior officials, because only under the shroud of power and the harassment and conquest of evil forces, can they win down some forced demolition projects that seriously infringe on the interests of ordinary people.
Although Mao Liqiang also has some interests involved, he is a deputy secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission after all. He is still full of sympathy for many ordinary people, but it is just sympathy. Many times in the dead of night, Mao Liqiang is also reflecting on why he I have become the profit-seeking person I am now. I thought back then, I was full of passion and wanted to do more practical things for the people. I thought back then, I thought I didn’t want to win down more corrupt officials through my work in the Commission for Discipline Inspection.
However, after many reflections, Mao Liqiang finally came to a conclusion that made him very helpless. The ideal is plump, the reality is skinny. In the face of the bleak reality, middle and low-level officials, especially those without backers and brains, There are only two endings for officials. One is to be assimilated by the bleak reality and the sugar-coated bullets of interest groups and become one of them. The other ending is to fight against the interest groups and eventually be eliminated or even be framed and imprisoned. , or being dragged down and then imprisoned. Of course, in addition to these two endings, there is another way of production, which is to have no desires and no demands, find a job as a sinner, and have a cup of tea and a newspaper every day. Drinking tea and reading newspapers, I am in officialdom but my heart is in the countryside.
Mao Liqiang ultimately chose to be assimilated.
Liu Qingyu's words made Mao Liqiang think about it, but he finally returned to reality again. He smiled bitterly and said: "Secretary Liu, the reality is indeed bleak, but we should not be too pessimistic. This is just the pain of our social transformation period.
That’s all.”
Liu Qingyu smiled, but there was a bit of sadness in this smile: "Labor pain, social transformation period, these are just excuses. The real labor pain is definitely not the things made up in common people's jingles. Labor pain is difficult to resist by human beings."
, but these things compiled by ordinary people are definitely caused by man-made disasters. The root cause lies in some inaction or even dereliction of duty in our Dongjiang City. It lies in the fact that there are a huge number of naked officials in our Dongjiang City. Some of them
He stayed alone in Dongjiang City, ready to escape at any time, and he was trying every means to amass money anytime and anywhere.
Therefore, we in Dongjiang City can change the pains you mentioned. That is to resolutely and severely crack down on naked officials. We will make those naked officials lose the soil for survival and make them lose the ability to use their power to amass money.
Opportunities, and to achieve this, the key first step is to ask our officials, large and small, in Dongjiang City to follow the instructions of the country and the province, and in accordance with the document requirements made at the Standing Committee of our Municipal Party Committee, officials at all levels should take the initiative to declare their families
The situation allows the organization to know whether each official is a naked official."
Having said this, Liu Qingyu looked at Mao Liqiang coldly and said, "Comrade Mao Liqiang, what do you think now?"
After hearing what Liu Qingyu said, Mao Liqiang suddenly fell silent. He felt that his conscience was being whipped by the whip of justice. It was so loud and painful. The thought of entering the Discipline Inspection Commission kept flashing in his mind.
At that time, he was full of passion and ideals.
Finally, Mao Li raised his head fiercely and said: "Secretary Liu, I was wrong. I support the views of Comrades Zheng Bofang and Yao Jianfeng. Naked officials who do not declare in accordance with the regulations must make them pay the price. Our municipal party committee, municipal government
The dignity of the Discipline Inspection Commission must be maintained, and the spirit of the instructions in our national documents must be resolutely implemented and implemented."
After Mao Liqiang finished speaking, Yan Weidong was completely dumbfounded. He never expected that Liu Qingyu would convince him in just a few conversations.
Subsequently, Ye Jianqun and other members of the Standing Committee of the Commission for Discipline Inspection expressed their positions one by one, and they would definitely notify the province of those officials who failed to make declarations as required. This time, the attitude within the Commission for Discipline Inspection was unprecedentedly consistent. Yan Weidong naturally did not dare to make extraneous matters at this time, and finally passed unanimously.
.
Immediately, Liu Qingyu personally reported the results of the Discipline Inspection Commission's meeting and the relevant documents of the final decision to Municipal Party Committee Secretary Sun Yulong.
After reading the documents submitted by Liu Qingyu, Sun Yulong's face darkened at that time. He did not expect that Liu Qingyu's actions would be so patrolling. He had just made a move to trick Liu Qingyu. Liu Qingyu
To launch a counterattack so quickly, and apparently to bring this matter to the city, is definitely not something he can tolerate.
After reading the document, Sun Yulong looked directly at Liu Qingyu and said coldly: "Comrade Liu Qingyu, don't you think the decision of the Dongjiang Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection was too hasty? Can't you imagine that once you follow the rules?
After your Dongjiang Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection handles this matter, how much pressure will our Dongjiang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government face? If the superior leaders question who will take on this responsibility, don’t you know that Comrade Li Wanjun, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, has always been
Are you emphasizing that our Liaoyuan City should focus on stability and harmony and not engage in all kinds of extraordinary actions?"
A series of questions fully demonstrated Sun Yulong's anger.
Liu Qingyu responded calmly: "Secretary Sun, I don't think the decision of our Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection is excessive, let alone hasty, but the most appropriate decision made by our Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection after collective deliberation. I would like to ask Ask Secretary Sun, if our Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection does not take severe action this time, what do you think our Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection should do? Should we cease our activities? If we cease our activities, does it mean that our Municipal Party Committee, Government, and Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection have no role at all? Does the ability to defend the decisions we make mean that we really do not punish people because the law does not hold them accountable?"
Liu Qingyu threw the same series of questions to Sun Yulong, with firm eyes flashing in his eyes.
Sun Yulong's face became even more angry: "Comrade Liu Qingyu, yes, you are right. The majesty of our municipal party committee and government must be maintained, but this maintenance is definitely not by slapping ourselves in the face." To maintain it, doing so will only cause greater damage to the image of our Dongjiang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, and I need to remind you that our Dongjiang City is only a county-level city, and we still have superior leaders. Liaoyuan City will ultimately We are very concerned about the situation in Dongjiang City.
Comrade Li Wanjun, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, has called me many times and asked us to be more stable in Dongjiang City. Even if your processing document is passed in our Dongjiang City, it still needs to be approved by the Standing Committee of the Liaoyuan Municipal Party Committee. Otherwise, , once this matter arouses dissatisfaction from the leaders of the Liaoyuan Municipal Party Committee, you and I will not be able to live without it."
Sun Yulong's words were still very powerful, and they directly transferred the decision-making power to the Liaoyuan Municipal Committee, which was equivalent to directly removing Liu Qingyu's right to speak. After saying these words, Sun Yulong secretly felt in his heart He became proud: "Liu Qingyu, Liu Qingyu, you are still far behind when you fight against me. I don't believe what I said will make you angry to death."
However, what Sun Yulong didn't expect was that after he finished speaking, Liu Qingyu did not show any anger or dissatisfaction. He just shook his head gently and said: "Secretary Sun, you are wrong, you are very wrong." , It is true that we are a county-level city, and it is true that we are a subordinate county of Liaoyuan City. There is no problem that we need to report to Liaoyuan City for instructions on some matters. However, after all, we are a department with considerable power. Many things We can make decisions on our own without any need to report or ask for instructions. Just like the matter in front of us, how to deal with these officials is within the scope of our power. There is no need to ask for instructions and reports at all. Therefore, there is no need for us to ask our superiors to come. Make the decision for us."
After Liu Qingyu finished speaking, Sun Yulong was so angry that he slammed the table: "Liu Qingyu, I've tolerated you for a long time, you'd better not hit your face."
