Chapter 66 17. Determination

After dinner, Wu Mengling accompanied Li Weimin for a walk, and the two of them came to the vicinity of the Standing Committee compound. Behind the Standing Committee compound is Hai Rui Park. Hai Rui Park used to be called Labor Park. After Wang Yuanzhang became the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, he suggested that Labor Park be renamed Hai Rui Park. Because surrounding Hai Rui Park not only live in the Standing Committee Compound, deputy city leaders and above, but also the residential areas of various committees and bureaus, the residential areas of the National People's Congress and the Political Consultative Conference are also nearby.No matter the people who come here for morning exercise or those who go for a walk in the evening, many of them are cadres. Hai Rui was a well-known upright official in Chinese history in the middle and late Ming Dynasty. Wang Yuanzhang suggested that this park be called Hai Rui Park with good intentions.

Li Weimin and Wu Mengling walked into Hai Rui Park, facing a huge statue of Hai Rui. On the base of the statue was engraved Hai Rui's famous memorial "The World's First Event".Li Weimin and Wu Mengling walked in front of Hai Rui's sculpture, and when they stopped to admire it, Xiao Honglin and Guan Lanxin walked up to them. "Hey, Mayor Xiao and sister-in-law Lan Xin, what a coincidence!" Wu Mengling saw them first and greeted them. "Weimin, Mengling, it's so relaxing!" Xiao Honglin said with a smile. "Honglin, Mengling and I often go here for a walk, it's rare to see you and sister-in-law once." Li Weimin said loudly.

"The government is no match for the municipal committee. Your municipal committee is in charge of people. Our government is in charge. When you get busy, you beat the back of your head. How can you have time for a walk?" Xiao Honglin spoke with a certain emotion. "Honglin, let go of power, you won't be so busy." "Weimin, do you mean that I, Xiao Honglin, have seized power?" Xiao Honglin asked dissatisfied. "Honglin, the French political scientist Montesquieu said: All powerful people are prone to abuse power. This is an eternal theorem. British historian John Acton has a famous saying: Absolute power must Absolute corruption is produced. The clear plains are vast, and the wind is blowing and the sails are hanging!"

"Li Weimin, you have something to say! I, Xiao Honglin, don't like to go round and round. If you want to say something, please say it directly. Don't be weird with me!" Xiao Honglin said excitedly. "Comrade Hong Lin, do you dare to pat your chest in front of Hai Rui and say that you are innocent!" After Li Weimin finished speaking, Guan Lanxin couldn't listen any longer. She argued, "Weimin, what are you talking about? You mean our Honglin family is corrupt." "Lan Xin, don't forget that you are the mayor's wife, not an ordinary person's wife. You should be Xiao Honglin's good wife, and you can't hold back!"

"Mengling, take good care of your family as the people, why is it a mad dog, who bites whoever it sees?" Guan Lanxin said with a downcast. Wu Mengling was also very embarrassed. She dragged Li Weimin away and said, "Sister-in-law, Weimin can't speak, but he is doing it for your own good!" Xiao Honglin laughed loudly and said, "For the sake of the people, don't just pretend to be Hai Rui. I, Xiao Honglin, dare to tell you that I am worthy of the eight million people of Dongzhou and my conscience. I have a clear conscience!" "Have a clear conscience? The central government has issued repeated orders not to allow the children of leading cadres to do business in their own jurisdiction. Your son Xiao Wei, who is about to become the richest man in Dongzhou, dares to say that he has a clear conscience in front of Hai Rui!" Li Weimin said loudly.

Wu Mengling was afraid that it would end badly, and quickly persuaded: "Wei Min, you are not polite when talking to Hong Lin, old partner, why is this?" Li Weimin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, Honglin, I have a bad temper. To be honest, I really don't want anything to happen to you." After speaking, he took Wu Mengling's hand and left. Looking at the figures of Li Weimin and his wife, Xiao Honglin was so angry that he broke the badminton racket in two. After Shi Cunshan received a call from Ding Nengtong last night, he reported to Deng Dahai, director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, overnight.In the morning, Li Weimin was sitting in the office and was about to browse the newspaper when Shi Cunshan and Deng Dahai pushed the door open and came in.

"Secretary Li, we have important information to report to you." Shi Cunshan said as soon as he entered the door. "Oh, it seems that you have a lot of background, please sit down!" Li Weimin said jokingly, and got up to make tea for Shi Cunshan and Deng Dahai himself. Li Weimin already knew that the inspection team of the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China was talking to many cadres in Dongzhou for the purpose of inspecting him, but he had not yet talked to him himself. The political arena is not peaceful. It is estimated that the Organization Department of the Central Committee may find him in the past few days. The Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee told him not to go out. Otherwise, Deng Dahai and Shi Cunshan would not be able to see Li Weimin in the office without prior appointment.Since Li Weimin took office, he spent two-thirds of the year at the grassroots level.

"Dahai, I thought you should come to me. You must have been under a lot of pressure during this period of time, right?" Li Weimin asked with concern. "Comrade Weimin, after a period of intensive secret work by the Municipal Criminal Police Detachment, it has been found out that the Beidu Group headed by Chen Fuzhong is actually a criminal gang with a gangster nature. Duan Yufen, president of Zhongshan Branch of CCB, and Liu Kexin, director of the office, It was killed by Chen Fuzhong's subordinate Hai Zhiqiang. After the murder, he carried out extremely cruel mutilation of the corpse. Not only that, more than a dozen serious injury cases in this city were all related to Chen Fuzhong. Last time your secretary Xiao Tang received The threatening letter they received was also done by them. At present, all the companies bidding for the construction of the city's key project, the Flower Expo Garden, have been threatened to varying degrees, including Xiao Wei of Huayu Group, who was also attacked at the Kunlun Hotel in Beijing at noon yesterday. Threats from Chen Fuzhong and Hai Zhiqiang."

Before Deng Dahai finished speaking, Li Weimin interjected and asked, "How did you get the news that Xiao Wei was threatened? Did Xiao Wei report to the Municipal Public Security Bureau?" "No, the news was reported to me by Ding Neng, director of the Beijing Office. It is said that Bai Lina, deputy director of the reception office of the Beijing Office, was also threatened." Shi Cunshan added. "Why did Chen Fuzhong intimidate Bai Lina? There seems to be no conflict of interest between them?" Li Weimin asked puzzled. "Comrade Weimin, Xiao Wei's trip is to meet Bai Lina. It is said that Bai Lina has a relationship with Comrade Xiao Honglin..." Deng Dahai said halfway, but did not continue.

"Comrade Xiao Honglin has changed in the past two years, I'm really worried about him!" Li Weimin sighed. "For the people, in comparison, Jia Chaoxuan is even more worrying. He openly interfered in handling the case in the name of supporting the development of private enterprises, invited me and Chen Fuzhong to dinner many times, and put pressure on me in the name of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee. Let Chen Fuzhong go, as far as we know, Jia Chaoxuan and Chen Fuzhong have long been called brothers." Deng Dahai said regretfully. "Yes, some of our cadres are becoming more and more unable to withstand the temptation of power, money and beauty in the tide of the market economy. , Corrupting state staff, providing protection for their criminal acts, and some even meddling in manipulating rural elections at the grassroots level. Underworld forces are becoming more and more corporate and corporatized. Some of our cadres do not investigate or report cases. In this case, the measures were not effective, and these acts of malfeasance are also the umbrella of the evil forces. Recently, Secretary Wang and I have received many reports on Xiao Honglin and Jia Chaoxuan. The problem is very serious! Secretary Wang and I are preparing to report to the provincial party secretary Lin Comrade Bai made a special report, it should be said that the Municipal Public Security Bureau withstood the pressure and did a great job, but don’t forget to eliminate all evils!”

"Comrade Weimin, digging deep and destroying the protective umbrella behind the evil forces is the key to fighting the evil. If the protective umbrella is not dug out, the evil forces will not be eradicated!" Deng Dahai said with deep emotion. "Comrade Haihai, to fight against evil forces, especially when it comes to combating umbrellas, we must use political wisdom. Since Xiao Wei was intimidated and threatened by Chen Fuzhong's criminal gang, we must find Xiao Wei and Bai Lina to obtain evidence. Xiao Honglin's son was The threat of evil forces is a great shame to him, the mayor of the city. This matter must be reported to Xiao Honglin to obtain his support. Get rid of Chen Fuzhong and the gang of evil forces in one fell swoop, and then dig deeper into the umbrella." "Secretary Li, I understand what you mean. Regarding the intimidation of Xiao Wei, we will report to Mayor Xiao after we collect the evidence." Shi Cunshan said firmly. "The sea, the mountain, the task is very difficult, the situation is very complicated, you have to be more careful!" Li Weimin said earnestly. After Deng Dahai and Shi Cunshan reported their work to Li Weimin, they broke up in the municipal party committee compound. Deng Dahai asked Shi Cunshan to obtain evidence from Xiao Wei and Bai Lina as soon as possible.After much deliberation, Shi Cunshan felt that it would be easier to obtain evidence from Bai Lina first. Once Bai Lina opened her mouth, Xiao Wei would not be able to do so, and finally reported to Xiao Honglin. Thinking of this, Shi Cunshan felt much better, and thought, "Yufen, your revenge is about to be avenged, and I will definitely bring your murderer to justice." At this time, the mobile phone rang, and Shi Cunshan saw that it was Yimei calling. Recently, Shi Cunshan and Yimei had more and more contacts, and they had a good feeling for each other, and they were both from the past, so they were more calm. Shi Cunshan answered the phone, and Yimei asked him to have lunch together. Yimei's street office is not far from the Municipal Criminal Police Detachment, and the two often ate together at noon.As soon as Yimei reminded him, Shi Cunshan really felt a little hungry. He hadn’t eaten in the morning. It was already past eleven o’clock. After he connected his mobile phone, he stepped on the accelerator, and Santana disappeared into the busy traffic.
