Chapter 30 Chapter Thirty

In 1989, it was the sixth year that the central government implemented the reform of commercialization of banks, and changed from appropriation to loans.This year, the road of bank funds to support the expansion of enterprises has almost come to an end, and the shortage of funds has become a national problem.As a result, Shen Taifu's illegal fund-raising case broke out, which shocked the whole country for a while.Almost at the same time, Ningchuan also had a huge turmoil caused by fundraising, involving as much as 800 million yuan.After Shen Taifu's case happened, there was a sudden wave of redemption. The Ningchuan Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government were surrounded by water, and social stability was seriously threatened.The provincial party committee and relevant central departments quickly intervened, and the municipal party secretary Qiu Shaoxiong and the mayor Shao Zexing who were responsible for leadership were both dismissed from office.

Some things are hard to tell, and sometimes the line between right and wrong is not clear at all, especially in the early days of feeling the stones.As far as Zhao Anbang knows, the illegal fundraising in Ningchuan was originally called "self-funded reform."Since it was a self-funded reform, there was no financial support from above, no policy preference, and everything had to be figured out on its own. Qiu Shaoxiong and the Ningchuan Municipal Party Committee thought of three points: financial squeeze, bank loans, and private contributions.These three points have been used as experience in reform and exploration, and have been fully affirmed by the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee Liu Huanzhang and the Provincial Party Committee.No one thought that once Shen Taifu's case broke out and there was a wave of proposals, it would cause such a big trouble.

Thinking about it now, it is understandable that Liu Huanzhang and the provincial party committee handled it that way. After all, there was a big environment, and the relevant central departments wanted to investigate fundraising, and the province couldn't stand it.Besides, there are many problems in raising capital itself. Of the 800 million raised at 20% annual interest rate, 600 million was used for the construction of the Niushan Peninsula New District, while the other 200 million was invested in foreign capitals outside the province to earn a difference in interest rates. Some enterprises, the team of the investment company in the new area are also suspected of collective corruption.The public statement of the relevant case-handling department is that Lin Weimin, the boss of the investment company, did it behind Qiu Shaoxiong and Shao Zexing’s back to invest the fund-raising funds in other places. punishment.

Where Qiu Shaoxiong and Shao Zexing fell, the new Ningchuan Municipal Party Committee stood up. Although more than ten years have passed since the incident, Zhao Anbang still remembers many details clearly: he received a phone call from the Organization Department on February 4, 1989. That is to say, accompanied by Liu Huanzhang and Minister Zhong of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, he went directly to Ningchuan from the Provincial Party Committee.At that time, the expressway from the provincial capital to Ningchuan had not yet been completed, and the road less than 200 kilometers away was driven for more than four hours.Bai Ming, Wang Rucheng and other comrades of the new team were waiting in the brightly lit conference room, waiting for Liu Huanzhang and Minister Zhong to announce this important appointment to the new team of Ningchuan on behalf of the Hanjiang Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China.

It should be said that the appointment of the Provincial Party Committee was decisive, and it has become very clear now: the team headed by Bai Ming is a team that continues to succeed, and it is a team that started on the shoulders of political martyrs. Later, he fell down in another storm, and Baiming even sacrificed his life. However, the bloody road they fought with all their might finally allowed Ningchuan to walk into the historic dawn, bringing Ningchuan more than ten years of supernatural power. regular development.Ningchuan's brilliant today started from that historical night.That historical night was worth his whole life to chew on.

After the appointment was announced, Liu Huanzhang made an important speech on behalf of the Provincial Party Committee, pointing out meaningfully, "Ningchuan's self-funded reform is not wrong, and the road of self-funded reform has to go on, and we can't give up because of choking. The Provincial Party Committee's organization of Qiu Shaoxiong and Shao Zexing It is necessary to deal with it, but this does not mean that the Provincial Party Committee has become cautious and only wants to maintain the situation in Ningchuan. Comrades, please do not misunderstand this point! On behalf of the Hanjiang Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China, I can tell you clearly: only Comrades who are concerned about the black hat on their heads, and who are unwilling to explore and dare not explore, the provincial party committee will ask you to make way; comrades who have problems in the exploration, the provincial party committee will deal with it in the future! Therefore, some people say that the provincial party committee and I are another You want the horse to run, but you also want the horse not to eat grass. This is wrong, a horse can eat grass, but it must not eat young crops in the field!"

When talking about the fund-raising case specifically, Liu Huanzhang said: "The impact and consequences of fund-raising are very serious. No matter how good your subjective wishes are, and no matter how many reasons you have, you cannot ignore social stability. Therefore, the first task of your new team is to To deal with this matter well, we must maintain and maintain the stability of the political and economic order in Ningchuan and the whole province!" Bai Ming stated on the spot, "Secretary Huanzhang, please rest assured that the Ningchuan Municipal Party Committee and I will attach great importance to it and handle it properly to ensure that no group interviewers from Ningchuan's fund-raising case appear in front of the Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government! "

Liu Huanzhang asked the secretary to write down what Baiming said, and said earnestly: "Tianming, Comrade Anbang, you must remember: at any time and under any circumstances, stability is the most important thing. There is no stable society. The political environment is out of the question, and you Ning Chuan don’t even think about reforming at your own expense!" Bai Ming complied obediently again, and Zhao Anbang remembered that the old man even sent a message about the issue of stability. However, after sending away Liu Huanzhang, Minister Zhong and other provincial Party committee leaders, Bai Ming's attitude changed, and he confessed to him: "Anbang, don't take the aftermath of fundraising too seriously. This is just a small developing country. It’s just an episode! Before the Shen Taifu case happened, who knew that this was called illegal fund-raising? Everyone thought it was a good way to raise funds!”

Zhao Anbang was stunned, "Hey, Secretary Tianming, don't you already know? Didn't you say you objected?" Bai Tianming smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest with you, I'm not so clever. What I object to is not fundraising, but investing the fundraising funds in Shenzhen and Guangdong to earn interest margins! In the matter of raising funds for development, Qiu Shaoxiong, Shao Zexing and I It’s a bird of a feather, so it’s a fish that slipped through the net!” He said, “I hope that we will continue to develop the situation in Ningchuan, not only the Provincial Party Committee and Comrade Huanzhang, but also comrades from the former team such as Qiu Shaoxiong and Shao Zexing. In fact, he blocked the bullet hole for me, took full responsibility for the fund-raising case, and sacrificed his political life to protect me!"

Zhao Anbang couldn't help but feel a little strange. According to private rumors, Baiming, Qiu Shaoxiong, and Shao Zexing had many conflicts at work, and for a while it seemed that they had a fierce quarrel, so he asked, "This...what's going on here?" Tianming was stunned for a long time before he said: "It was Qiu Shaoxiong who set the tone at the Standing Committee. Comrade Shaoxiong said that since the incident happened, the mayor Zexing and I are doomed, so we will not escape! The other comrades should withdraw. Withdrawal, especially Comrade Bai Ming, we must try to keep it, and keep the green hills, so we won't be afraid of running out of firewood!"

Zhao Anbang understood, "That is to say, your municipal party committee team has collectively deceived the leaders of the provincial party committee?" Bai Tianming sighed: "There is no other way. Qiu Shaoxiong had a judgment at the time that leaders need this kind of deception, especially a provincial party leader like Liu Huanzhang! Facts have proved that the judgment is correct. To be honest, I have no idea at all. I thought that the Provincial Committee would let me take this big step forward and preside over the work of Ningchuan, and I never thought that you, Zhao Anbang, would be the acting mayor! When I asked Comrade Huanzhang for you, I thought you could be the deputy mayor Not bad, when the results of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee came out, even I was taken aback, I thought at the time, Secretary Huanzhang is amazing, how dare we employ people!" Zhao Anbang said sincerely: "Yes, Secretary Huanzhang has courage! However, Secretary Tianming, I still have to thank you. You didn't call me by name, maybe I still can't get into the sight of Secretary Huanzhang and the provincial party committee. !" Bai Ming shook his head, "That's not the case. In fact, you have been in the sight of Comrade Huanzhang and the provincial party committee! As far as I know, the provincial party committee originally planned to transfer North China from Wenshan to serve as the acting mayor. First of all, I disagree. You should be clear about the reasons for my disagreement. It is not because of personal grievances in Wenshan. I don’t think this comrade is material for a charge. Qiu Shaoxiong and others have also done a lot of work through the channels of some old comrades in the province. Later, When the members of the Standing Committee held a meeting to discuss the Ningchuan team, the situation changed suddenly. Comrade Huanzhang played a decisive role. He said at the meeting: If only to clean up the mess and deal with the aftermath of fundraising, who will be sent to Ningchuan as the city? It can be long, and it is very suitable for North China. However, Ningchuan is not only a problem of cleaning up the mess, but also a problem of big development, so it can't be used to maintain the president, but to use a death squad that can rush and break through, like Tian Minghe Comrades like Zhao Anbang! Don’t be so worried, and don’t be afraid that they will make mistakes again. If they make mistakes, we will deal with them and remove them!” Zhao Anbang couldn't help feeling hot in his heart, "This...are these the original words of Comrade Liu Huanzhang?" Bai Ming said: "It's almost the original words, the head of the Organization Department Zhong Zhong told me quietly!" Zhao Anbang was greatly moved, and only then did he understand how he and Baiming got here!Naturally, this decision of the Provincial Party Committee offended Yu Huabei. It is said that Yu Huabei had made some comments after their current leadership fell, accusing the Provincial Party Committee of employing the wrong people, "Removing two bad cadres, using two A worse cadre." After Comrade Xiaoping's speech on the southern tour was published, Yu Huabei's attitude changed, and he went to Liu Huanzhang to explain that he had never said such a thing. After the two "bad cadres" handed over their work, he and Bai Ming, two "worse cadres", sent them away.Qiu Shaoxiong went to the Provincial Forestry Bureau as the party secretary, and Shao Zexing went to the Provincial Institute of Technology as the dean.He and Bai Ming sent them all the way to Ningchuan.When we parted, Qiu Shaoxiong pointed to the landscape in the boundary and said, "It's up to you what Ning Chuan will do in the future. When it's done, Ze Xing and I will come to congratulate you on your success. If you die, we'll collect your body!" Bai Ming's tears came down immediately, "Old squad leader, I am mentally prepared for this, as long as death is worth it!" These words were really unlucky. Later, at Tianming's memorial service, Qiu Shaoxiong mentioned this matter again, and cried bitterly: "Tianming, why did you really ask me to collect your body? Why is my mouth so damaged?" ?!" However, no one could have predicted what would happen on the day of the farewell. No one expected that the vigorous and vigorous man Bai Ming would die young, and their team would collapse three years later!At that time, they were only complaining about Qiu Shaoxiong and Shao Zexing. On the way back, Tianming kept sighing and sighing, and even tampered with a famous speech of Mao Zedong, saying sadly: "Where there is struggle, there will be sacrifices. Resignation often happens. Comrades Shaoxiong and Zexing are not It's easy, I know everything in my heart, and at a critical moment, I still take the overall situation into consideration, it makes me sad to think about it!" Zhao Anbang also sighed and said, "Yes, yes, these two good comrades have not been rewarded for their ambitions!" Bai Tianming said: "But we are here, let us pay for their aspirations! Anbang, tell you the truth, I dare to take the baton from Qiu Shaoxiong, and I am ready to make a mistake and get out of the stage! You Brother, if you dare to become the mayor of this city, you must be mentally prepared! Don't take promotion as a goal, you must have political courage!" Zhao Anbang was stunned for a moment, "Tianming, don't worry, I will never be timid when you rush forward!" Tianming was excited, and grabbed Zhao Anbang's hand, "Okay, Anbang, let's do it vigorously, and we must not disappoint the cadres and masses in Ningchuan!" He then talked about the work, "Of course, we must Talk about strategy, you can’t think about raising funds anymore, and your future development ideas should be positioned on attracting investment and managing the city! I’m going to concentrate on doing some research and gather relevant experts to make a good plan. Your mayor, please give me more action Use your brain!" Zhao Anbang nodded in response, and suddenly thought of his old subordinate Qian Huiren, "Squad leader, you asked the provincial party committee for me, can I also ask you for someone? I want to transfer someone, that is Qian Huiren, this comrade I Use it with ease!" Bai Ming also remembered Qian Huiren, "Oh, this is a good comrade, I will forget if you don't mention it! Tell him to come here quickly, I think we can consider arranging a deputy secretary-general of the municipal government to help with fundraising first Let's deal with the aftermath!" Qian Huiren was transferred to Ningchuan in this way. When he came to report, the city government was still surrounded by debt collectors every day.
