Chapter 9 Chapter nine

On another Monday morning, Dongfang Changqing received a call from Qi Qun, the head of the Disciplinary Inspection Team of the Cultural Bureau. Qi Qun told him that Qin Jianjian, deputy secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, would go to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection.Dongfang Changqing knew that Mo Kaiming had made a move.Thinking of this, Dongfang Changqing felt a little excited and drove to the Commission for Discipline Inspection. Qin Jian is the deputy secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection and also the director of the Supervision Bureau. Everyone is familiar with it. Seeing Dongfang Evergreen coming, Qin Jian made tea for him with a smile and said, "Director Dongfang, originally I was going to personally I went to your place to report to you, but I moved your driver to let you come to me, I am sorry." Dongfang Changqing said with a smile: "Don't tell me, it is really not easy to come to a place like the Commission for Discipline Inspection When I heard that I was going to the Commission for Discipline Inspection, I felt a little apprehensive, as if I was someone with a problem."

Qin Jian laughed heartily and said, "One should know how to be afraid. It's not a good thing for a person to be too courageous." Dongfang Changqing smiled and said: "It makes sense, people should always be in awe, this is probably the so-called self-policing and self-examination." The two talked for a while before Qin Jian turned to the topic and said, "Director Dongfang, I invited you here this time about something about Deputy Director Hu Song of your bureau. We have received some reports about Director Hu's economic problems. It is well-founded, mainly because of the reimbursement of invoices in the department he is in charge of, and the amount adds up to tens of thousands of yuan. We have studied it and are going to file a case for investigation and want to hear your opinion."

Dongfang Changqing said in amazement: "Is there such a thing?" Qin Jian nodded and said, "Generally speaking, we don't investigate anonymous reports, only real-name reports are investigated. But for this anonymous report, the facts listed in the report letter are very specific, so it's better not to investigate." Dongfang Changqing thought for a while, and said: "Deputy Director Hu, I think he is still honest. If you want to report some invoices in the subordinate departments in charge, I am not sure that there are no invoices. The bureau is poor, and the bureau leaders report some invoices below. Strictly speaking, it is illegal, but it is also a hidden rule, right? If the discipline inspection department wants to listen to my opinion, I think this matter should of course be investigated, but starting from the desire to save comrades, it is still a bit more important to file a case. If you can trust me Our party group of the Cultural Bureau, I suggest that the discipline inspection team of the party group of the Cultural Bureau go to investigate, talk to Comrade Hu Song, and see his attitude."

Qin Jian smiled and said: "Director Dongfang, it seems that you still care about your subordinates, how about this, since you proposed to let the bureau solve it, I agree, if the facts listed in the report letter are true, people can Handle it lightly, and the money will still be refunded. Of course, this is just my opinion, and I have to report to the leader before it can be finalized." Dongfang Changqing said: "Okay, I'll talk to him, but Director Hu is a bit stubborn, I'm afraid we won't be able to talk to him." Qin Jian said: "If you can't solve it in the bureau, then you have to file a case."

Dongfang Changqing quickly said: "Don't, I'd better talk about it first." Qin Jian said, "Okay, that's it." Back in the bureau, Dongfang Changqing sat alone in the office for a long time, thinking about how to talk to Hu Song.The reason why he suggested to Qin Jian not to file a case and let the bureau handle it by himself has his own considerations.The deputy leader of the bureau reports the invoices in the units below, which is nothing at all. The official can turn a blind eye to it. Dongfang Changqing is not so strict, it is too strict. It's so inhuman, who would dare to work with you?The reason why Dongfang Changqing encouraged Mo Kaiming to report was just to kill Hu Song's arrogance. The purpose of waving a big stick was to make others obey, but not to kill him.Therefore, he still protected Hu Song from the Commission for Discipline Inspection. If Hu Song knew, he would be grateful to him.This is roughly the so-called combination of grace and power.This conversation with Hu Song was undoubtedly a head-to-head confrontation between the two. Even though he knew that he had a chance to win, Dongfang Changqing still did not dare to take it lightly.

After thinking for a while, Dongfang Changqing decided to take the method of attacking the periphery first, step by step, and break through step by step, so that Hu Song gradually felt the pressure.Thinking about it, I called Wang Xiaomao, the director of the bureau's office, and said, "Comrade Xiaomao, please come to my office." Wang Xiaomao came over immediately and asked, "Director, what instructions do you have?" Dongfang Changqing smiled and said, "Is Director Hu Song at home?" Wang Xiaomao said, "I called in the morning and said that I have something to do in the county. I didn't say which county I went to." Dongfang Changqing listened. , smiled and said: "Old Hu, he doesn't say hello when he has something to do. How about it, there is something, the bureau party group and bureau affairs meeting will hold a meeting to study it, please inform the bureau party group members and bureau affairs leaders who are at home , to the small conference room for a meeting."

Wang Xiaomao asked again: "Now?" Dongfang Changqing replied: "Yes, now." Wang Xiaomao nodded and left. Dongfang Changqing made himself a cup of tea and waited quietly in his office, not wanting to go to the small meeting room right away.When the leader holds a meeting, he always has to wait for everyone else to arrive before he arrives late. It’s not unreasonable. He arrives early and sits alone on the chair, feeling lonely and even helpless. .Only when all the participants are present, and I pass through the eyes of everyone, I will have an advantage invisibly, and feel that I am full of strength.At the same time, it also gave the subordinates a sense of deterrence, an unattainable sense of awe.

After more than ten minutes, Wang Xiaomao came to report: "Director, everyone is here, do you think the meeting is about to begin?" Dongfang Changqing nodded, holding his huge briefcase under his arm with his right hand, and his thermos teacup in his left hand, walking towards the small meeting room at a leisurely pace.Wang Xiaomao had already walked ahead quickly and entered the conference room.Dongfang Changqing imagined the scene when Wang Xiaomao ran into the meeting room and announced to everyone that "the director is coming", and smiled unconsciously.When he reached the door of the meeting room, he put away his smile and walked in without looking sideways.

Except for Hu Song, all the members of the party group and the bureau affairs committee have arrived. The meeting room is oval, and everyone is sitting around. It looks chaotic, but it is actually orderly.The side facing the gate is the rostrum, and there is an empty seat in the middle, which is reserved for him.Next to the empty seat, there was a member of the party group, Wei Hong, the deputy director, and Su Yiyuan on the other.Seeing Dongfang Evergreen coming in, Su Yiyuan stood up first, and then everyone stood up.Dongfang Changqing nodded to everyone while walking, motioned for everyone to sit down, went straight to the chairman and sat down, then slowly opened the briefcase, took out notebooks, pens and other things, as if to the two deputy directors, He seemed to be talking to himself and said: "All here? Let's start."

Both Su Yiyuan and Wei Hong nodded in agreement.Since no one was appointed to preside over the meeting, and they didn't know what to study, everyone was a little dazed.Dongfang Changqing glanced at Su Yiyuan with a smile, Su Yiyuan nodded knowingly, coughed, and said: "Comrades, please be quiet, the meeting is now in session." The participants immediately stopped whispering and looked at Dongfang Changqing and Su Yiyuan.Su Yiyuan went on to say: "Next, we welcome Director Dongfang to speak to us." Everyone immediately clapped their hands, and Dongfang Changqing nodded in all directions, and said, "Comrades, today's meeting was decided by me on a temporary basis. I didn’t have time to discuss with Directors Wei Hong and Yi Yuan. This morning, the leaders of the Municipal Disciplinary Inspection Committee invited me to the Municipal Disciplinary Inspection Committee and informed me about the possible financial problems of some leaders of our Cultural Bureau. , Comrade Qi Qun, the discipline inspection team leader of our bureau, knows about this matter." After speaking, he glanced at Qi Qun, who nodded quickly, expressing that he really knew.The others went in without knowing it, and when they heard it suddenly, they couldn't help being a little shocked, and they all fixed their eyes on Dongfang Changqing.

"To be specific, the Commission for Discipline Inspection came to me to find out about Lao Hu. Some units under our Cultural Bureau reported to the higher-level discipline inspection and supervision department the problem of Deputy Director Hu Song's reimbursement of invoices to subordinate units. It is said that the report was very serious Specifically, I even wrote the ticket number of the invoice. To tell you the truth, the Commission for Discipline Inspection is going to file a case for investigation, and I have assumed the responsibility. I think that from the perspective of protecting cadres, I am not in favor of handling people, let alone filing a case at will. To be honest, it is not a big deal for the deputy of the unit to go down to report some invoices. If the people below do not file a complaint, then everything will be fine, but if the people below file a complaint, they cannot ignore it.” Dongfang Changqing said here and took a sip Tea, looked at everyone's movements.The following is already silent. "After my efforts, the Commission for Discipline Inspection agreed to talk to Lao Hu first in the bureau. If the report is true, the money will be turned over to the finance department, and we will digest it internally, and the matter will be over. I think this is the best. The result. The purpose of holding this meeting today is to study how to discuss this matter with Deputy Director Hu and who should discuss this matter. Everyone knows that Lao Hu has a temper. But it is influential. Let’s discuss it.” After Dongfang Changqing finished speaking, he unscrewed the thermos cup and drank tea in a leisurely manner.The audience was silent, as if a needle could be heard.Dongfang Changqing turned his head to look at Su Yiyuan, and met Su Yiyuan's gaze. "Let's speak up, we must fully promote democracy and speak freely." Dongfang Evergreen said again. "Let me say a few words." Su Yiyuan said hesitantly, "Ordinarily I don't want to say it first. I am not a member of the party group, and the comrades in the party group should say it first. However, since it is to fully promote democracy, I still publish my own. A little opinion. First of all, I would like to pay tribute to Director Dongfang. It is our honor to have such a good leader who cares about comrades. To be honest, fighting for the Commission for Discipline Inspection not to file a case is the greatest love for Comrade Hu Song, and it also makes us feel To warm. Secondly, I suggest that the leader of the discipline inspection team and one or two comrades in charge of the party group go to talk to Comrade Hu Song. Once the conversation collapses, there is no way out. Third, when talking, we still have to explain the seriousness of the problem clearly. We can’t be perfunctory, avoid the essence of the problem, and ask Lao Hu to take the initiative. As long as the facts are clear, the money will be refunded , I also agree not to deal with people. Dealing with people is not the purpose." After Su Yiyuan finished speaking, Wei Hong also spoke, which was basically the same as Su Yiyuan's.Next, Qi Qun, the head of the discipline inspection team, also made a statement, proving that Dongfang Changqing protected Hu Song's case, saying: "The Discipline Inspection Commission has indeed connected with me about Lao Hu's matter, and we are going to file a case. Director Dongfang can fight for Hu Song's case." It’s really not easy for the bureau to handle it independently. I think Lao Hu should also think about it and cooperate with the bureau’s handling. As for the conversation, of course I have a duty to do it. A leader and I went to talk to Lao Hu. If he admitted it and refunded the money readily, the matter would be easy to handle. If he didn’t admit it, what should we do? Please ask the leader for instructions.” Once again, everyone focused on Dongfang Evergreen.Dongfang Changqing said: "The comrades have expressed very good opinions just now, and I agree with them. On the question of who to send to talk to Comrade Hu Song, I am inclined to the opinion of Deputy Director Yi Yuan, and Comrade Qi Qun is the main one. , Deputy Director Wei Hong represents the party group, and Deputy Director Yi Yuan is also there. The three of you first find a suitable opportunity to talk to Lao Hu. Here I have to inform you that in order to facilitate work, the bureau’s party group has already submitted to the municipal party committee organization The Ministry issued a report, recommending that Comrade Su Yiyuan join the party group. The Organization Department has basically passed it, and the document will be issued in the near future. How to talk about it, you can think about it. My opinion is that we must clarify the facts and achieve the effect of saving and protecting comrades. And don’t be a bully. If we can’t reach an agreement, I’ll talk to him again. After all, we will finally reach an agreement. Today’s meeting is not only a meeting about Comrade Hu Song’s issues, but also a meeting to promote the construction of a clean government. At the meeting, I hope everyone can take this as a lesson. The bureau team should also consider how to further improve financial discipline and strengthen system construction. In view of the current situation of Comrade Hu Song, I suggest that Comrade Su Yiyuan temporarily take over the work of his executive deputy director. Let’s talk after we figure it out. Comrades, if you have any opinions, please express them.” Everyone expressed their agreement, Wei Hong expressed his position with some reluctance, and Dongfang Changqing just pretended not to know.In all honesty, Wei Hong's qualifications are older than Su Yi's, and he is more upright.But in the past year, she has adopted a policy of sitting on the fence between Dongfang Changqing and Hu Song, which makes Dongfang Evergreen unable to trust her.The executive deputy director is related to financial power. In recent years, the government has been very strict on clean government. The invoices of the official reports have to be signed by the executive deputy director before they can be reimbursed. This is not an ordinary power. Dongfang Changqing is well aware that many of the official posts have been dismissed. , The key is to demolish the wall behind.Su Yiyuan has been under Hu and Wei for a long time, and suddenly he is appreciated, and he can only be grateful.Dongfang Changqing often reads history. In history, some wise emperors pretended to be stupid when they were old, and found reasons to put some capable ministers into death row. The purpose is to release them by the new emperor, his son, after his death, and rehabilitate them, so as to win the gratitude of these old officials and try his best to protect the new master.Such resourcefulness is truly astonishing. After the meeting was over, Su Yiyuan came to Dongfang Changqing's office with tears of gratitude, and made another solid statement. Dongfang Changqing stood up, walked to Su Yiyuan's side, sat down on the sofa beside him, and cordially He patted the back of his hand and said: "Yi Yuan, I, Dongfang Changqing, dare not say that I know people, but it can also be said that I have read a lot of people, and I still have a little understanding of people. I have observed you for a long time, and you are courageous and sophisticated. , is sensitive and prudent in dealing with things, he is a talent that can be cultivated, and in time, he can accomplish a lot. You work hard, I dare not say that you can cultivate people, but you will definitely use them freely." Just when Su Yiyuan was so moved that he didn't know what to say , and said in a joking tone: "Mianzai Yiyuan, Mianzai Yiyuan!" While smiling, he thought in his heart, this person has been completely used by me.
