life in the sky

Chief No. [-]'s proposal was quickly passed. Mu Congjun and Mu Congwen didn't say a word at the meeting. Naturally, the two of them could not do anything about this matter involving the Guangnan Provincial Committee. made a statement.But their refusal to express their position does not mean that other people do not speak up. Based on the speeches of Gao Xuzheng and Huang Daguan, everyone knows what the attitude of the old Mu family is on this matter.

Before the joint investigation team started working, the situation changed again. A famous reporter from the East China Evening News jumped to the Beijing Evening News at this time, and published an article on the Beijing Evening News with detailed facts, exposing the absurdity of the editor-in-chief of the East China Evening News. The unscrupulous life, as well as the inside story of a private transaction with a certain big man, even involved issues such as power and money transactions.

On the surface, it seems that the well-known reporter from East China Evening News moved to Beijing Evening News. It might be a personal act. It might be a competition between two media with great influence. So simple, it may be the continuous reaction caused by the article published in the East China Evening News some time ago.

All this happened in just two days, which not only stunned some people, but also caught Ni Hongkui and others by surprise. At this moment, Ni Hongkui can probably only use the word shock to describe his mood.

After the meeting, Wang Hong, deputy secretary of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, returned to the office, thinking over and over again what happened at the meeting just now. Li Jun, the deputy director who presided over the work of the Inspection Office, proposed to investigate the East China Evening News at the meeting, and immediately He got the support of Song Dafei, the deputy secretary who presides over the daily work of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.

At this time, Wang Hong couldn't help thinking of the driving force behind this series of incidents. From a neutral point of view, the things that happened around the article in the East China Evening News are a bit unbelievable, but when I think about it carefully, I feel that there is a lot in this incident. Behind him, Mu Guoxing was everywhere. Wang Hong felt Mu Guoxing's terror even more. Thinking that her second brother was about to take revenge, she couldn't help but fight a cold war.

If Mu Guoxing planned all this, how did he do it?Wang Hong smiled wryly and shook her head. As far as she knew, the Politburo meeting had just decided that the Central Organization Department and the Central Propaganda Department would jointly investigate the issue of the East China Evening News, and the investigation team hadn't started work yet.

Now that the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection is about to intervene in this matter again, with the evidence in the hands of the job-hopping reporter, this matter is also easy to find out.Leaving aside the absurd private life of the editor-in-chief of the East China Evening News, the publication of the article that caused confusion among cadres across the country based on a private transaction with a certain big shot will never let it go .

The driving force behind Chapter [-] of the main text (seeking flowers in the second watch)

The joint investigation team organized by the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee and the Propaganda Department of the CPC Central Committee has yet to take place, and the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection has decided to send an investigation team to investigate the issue of the editor-in-chief of the East China Evening News. In history, three ministries and commissions decided almost at the same time to investigate a problem in a unit.

This shows how terrifying the energy behind this incident is.If this incident was indeed done by Mu Guoxing, it means that Mu Guoxing is now capable of using his own strength to launch a full-scale counterattack against certain political forces that tried to harm him, and thus caused drastic changes in the country's political arena Ability.The question now is if it wasn't for Mu Guoxing, who would have such great energy?

Of course, there are also some people who want to please the old Mu's family deliberately.On a large level, this is an action taken by high-level officials to maintain the original policy. On a small scale, it is like Li Jun, who proposed to investigate the editor-in-chief of the East China Evening News, is one of the most typical of these people. represent.

Old General Qi did not stand idly by during this struggle. Using what he knew about Ni Hongkui's problems, he united a large number of retired senior generals and wrote a letter to the central government to accuse Ni Hongkui of his problems.These people don't know where they got so much information, and even the fact that Ni Peishan is the illegitimate son of Ni Hongkui was found out by these people.

Although the weather in Guangnan was hot, the office of the Provincial Party Secretary was unusually cool. In the office, Mu Guoxing listened to the report of Ni Peishan's interrogation by Liu Judao, Secretary of the Provincial Disciplinary Committee, and Shang Yongjin, Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee.

"Secretary Mu, after the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee decided to double-regulate Ni Peishan, the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection immediately conducted a strict interrogation on him. Whenever we encountered some difficulties, we would promptly receive reports and materials from the masses. Based on these materials, we The investigation quickly opened Ni Peishan's mouth."

Mu Guoxing laughed, thinking, these so-called reports from the masses were all detected by his disciples, and it would be strange if Ni Peishan's mouth could not be pried away if the interrogation was conducted based on these circumstances.

"What was the result of the interrogation?"

"According to Ni Peishan's account and the evidence we have collected, Ni Peishan's problem is still quite serious. During his tenure as the secretary of the Hongfeng Municipal Party Committee, he took bribes arbitrarily, and the amount reached 700 million yuan. This is what our province dug up. Another big corrupt official."

Being able to solve such a major case, Liu Judao, as the secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection who personally directed the interrogation, is naturally very excited now.

Mu Guoxing's eyes turned to Shang Yongjin again: "What kind of situation is the investigation by the Public Security Bureau?"

"According to the investigation of the Public Security Bureau, the sensational murder case in Jinshan County was indeed instigated by Sun Dayou, director of the Jinshan County Public Security Bureau, and Sun Dayou was able to escape justice because of Ni Peishan's protection. The Commission for Discipline Inspection has already investigated the power-money transaction between Sun Dayou and Ni Peishan, Comrade Ju Dao has already reported it just now, so I won’t repeat it.”

Mu Guoxing nodded: "The impact of this case is not small, we must be cautious. The Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Public Security Bureau need to confirm the relevant evidence of this case, and immediately transfer it to the procuratorate for prosecution. We also need to use this case to educate The majority of cadres, calm down the adverse social influence."

The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection's investigation of the editor-in-chief of the East China Evening News also went very smoothly. With the cooperation of the job-hopping reporter, they quickly found out all the editor's problems. At the same time, they also learned that the article published in their newspaper was Ni Hongkui. personally ordered him to do it.

At this time, the investigation by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection can no longer continue. If it is to investigate the editor-in-chief of a state-owned enterprise, the East China Evening News, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection still has the right to make a decision, but if it wants to investigate a retired Members of the Politburo, it is up to the central government to make a decision.But this does not prevent the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection from reporting to the Central Committee the problems it has learned about Ni Hongkui during the investigation of the editor-in-chief.

A month later, Mu Guoxing received a call from Chief No. [-]: "Comrade Guoxing, the problems with the East China Evening News have now been clarified. The central government believes that the article published by the East China Evening News is bad in nature and has extremely bad influence. We will deal with the relevant responsible persons seriously. I am calling you today just to hear your opinions on this matter. "

Mu Guoxing laughed. It was very rare for the head of No. [-] to call to ask for his opinion on such a case.Now that the case has been clarified, No. [-]'s call must be to ask his opinion on Ni Hongkui's handling, which is the most important thing.

"No matter what decision the central government makes, I will resolutely obey. If I have any opinion, it is for the stability of the political situation. I suggest that it is better to keep a low profile on this matter."

No. [-] smiled with satisfaction. Before making the call, he had expected Mu Guoxing to have such an attitude. If Mu Guoxing still wanted to hold on to this matter, then he would not be Mu Guoxing. .

"I appreciate your attitude very much. The central government believes in you, and also believes that the work of Guangnan Province will reach a new level in the future."

This vigorous political struggle came to an end in this way. Although it did not cause any big sensation in Guangnan Province, it caused a lot of shock in the capital.After the contest between Mu Guoxing and Ni Hongkui this time, many people understood the truth that the third generation of the old Mu family has matured. From now on, even without relying on the power of the family, he can smash anyone's conspiracy against him .All the political families are now strictly demanding their family members and old subordinates not to confront Mu Guoxing head-on. That prince has many ways to organize people, and his methods are so clever that it is difficult for others to match.

Mu Guoxing's third uncle, Mu Congwen, called from the capital and told Mu Guoxing that the central government has decided to lower the confidentiality level of Ni Hongkui's reading documents, and the general office of the central government has adjusted all the treatment he enjoys accordingly. He moved out of the small courtyard where he lived for a long time, and went to the minister building in the first living area of ​​the State Council to retire.

This means that the central government still dealt with Ni Hongkui very harshly. On the political stage of this country, a second You Lao appeared again.You Lao was implicated because his granddaughter sold top-secret information abroad, and Ni Hongkui got into trouble because he wanted to revenge Mu Guoxing for his illegitimate son's failure to win an official position. For the same problem, senior cadres must be extra cautious when dealing with their children. If they are not the kind of very capable people, they must not have too high demands on him, otherwise, they will lose their lifetime if they insist on going their own way. Ching Ming.

"Guoxing, judging from this matter, it is impossible for you to keep a low profile. Now that you have come to the fore, you must go on bravely, but at the same time, you must also pay more attention to the strategy of struggle. You have high hopes."

Mu Guoxing understood the meaning of his third uncle's words, and said, "Third uncle, grandpa has taught me again and again that you must face things bravely, and don't take the initiative to cause trouble, and don't be afraid of it. If people like Ni Hongkui are not exposed now, sooner or later they will cause us big trouble. You are right. In the future work, I will work harder and never disappoint my family's expectations of me. "

This incident also made many people have a lot of imagination. If Ni Hongkui is not so enthusiastic about the progress of his illegitimate son Ni Peishan; After learning that the Guangnan Provincial Party Committee held objections to Ni Peishan's promotion, he no longer used the East China Evening News to produce the article slandering the Guangnan Provincial Party Committee and Mu Guoxing, and perhaps he would not end up in the same fate he is today.

Although there are so many assumptions, there are no assumptions in politics. Political struggle is so cruel and ruthless, it is life and death. A great man once said that politics is not a dinner party, nor is it a fuss.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

At the Standing Committee held by the Guangnan Provincial Party Committee, the personnel arrangements for two new members of the Standing Committee, as well as the secretary of the Hongfeng Municipal Party Committee and several other deputy department-level cadres were studied.Although Liu Judao, on behalf of the Organization Department, put forward three candidates for the addition of two members of the Standing Committee, but everyone knew which two talents Mu Guoxing liked the most.In the ensuing show of hands vote, Bao Heping's proposal to Liu Xiangdong and Shui Chenxi to enter the Standing Committee was passed unanimously. The speed and efficiency set a precedent for other provinces and cities in carrying out this work.

When researching the candidate for the secretary of the Hongfeng Municipal Party Committee, a small episode happened. Everyone was not optimistic about Lin Yidong, the mayor of Huajiang City, but with the support of Mu Guoxing, he won the laurels.Of course, Mu Guoxing himself would not put forward this suggestion at the meeting. As long as he properly communicated with Bao Heping before the meeting, it would not be a very simple matter.

The cadres in Guangnan Province all know that the two secretaries of the provincial party committee are very united, which is still rare among leading cadres at the provincial level. Sometimes Bao Heping’s speeches at the meeting actually represent the Xing's opinion.

Mu Guoxing didn't put forward any personal opinions on the candidates for the deputy department positions, and left them to the following members of the Standing Committee for consideration.Mu Guoxing believes that in the promotion and appointment of cadres, the secretary of the provincial party committee only needs to be able to seize the main positions. As for some deputy positions, they must be reserved for other standing committee members. Those who are selected by the top are selected by the Standing Committee, no matter who they use, there will be no major problems.

A major leader must learn to strike a balance. Mu Guoxing has seized the main position, that is, he has grasped the main contradiction. The current reality in the officialdom is that ten deputy officers are not as good as one official. As long as the official position can firmly implement his own As for the policy, the deputy below dare not mess around.Leaving these deputies to the Standing Committee members can not only balance the interests of the Standing Committee members, but more importantly, it can strengthen the unity within the leadership.

The advantage is that one person can't take it all. The secretary of the provincial party committee is responsible for the personnel arrangement of the principal position, and the standing committee members will naturally have to do something about the arrangement of the deputy positions.If someone wants to arrange a full-time job, it will have to wait until you become the secretary of the provincial party committee.Before he became the secretary of the provincial party committee, he could only obey such an arrangement. Perhaps this was a so-called unspoken rule in the officialdom.

The reason why Mu Guoxing supported Lin Yidong as the secretary of the Hongfeng Municipal Party Committee was also the result of repeated consideration.Since Mu Guoxing came to Guangnan, Lin Yidong's performance in all aspects is quite good.First of all, Lin Yidong did not get along with Feng Songshan, which also reflects his ability to stick to principles.Secondly, after Liu Xiangdong became the secretary of the municipal party committee, Lin Yidong at least did not show any dissatisfaction on the surface, which shows that he is still a person who can understand current affairs and understand the reality.

Since Liu Xiangdong became the secretary of the Huajiang Municipal Party Committee, Lin Yidong also consciously placed himself under the leadership of the Municipal Party Committee and cooperated with Liu Xiangdong's work very well.More importantly, Lin Yidong was able to firmly implement the instructions of the provincial party committee and the provincial government, and he did a good job in attracting investment, urban renovation and people's livelihood.

Mu Guoxing is not worried at all. After Lin Yidong became the secretary of the Hongfeng Municipal Party Committee, his old illness will relapse and something will happen again. Now that the old Song family is a thing of the past, Lin Yidong has lost such a backer. At this time, he can only seek another one. Supporters, leaning on Mu Guoxing is his only choice.It was for these reasons that Mu Guoxing saw that Lin Yidong's name was also included in the list of candidates for the Hongfeng Municipal Party Committee Secretary, so he communicated with Bao Heping and hinted that Lin Yidong would be promoted as the Hongfeng Municipal Party Committee Secretary.

As long as the chief and deputy secretaries communicate well, it will be logical for Lin Yidong to serve as the secretary of the Hongfeng Municipal Party Committee.

When studying Lin Yidong's successor, the Standing Committee adopted the suggestion of Governor Wu Xuelong and promoted Xiang Wenze, secretary-general of the Liqing Municipal Party Committee.The secretary of the provincial party committee is in charge of party cadres, and the governor is in charge of administrative cadres. From this point of view, Guangnan Province has embarked on an orderly track in cadre management, which is completely different from other provinces.The secretary of the provincial party committee and the governor cannot be united, and the main contradiction is still concentrated in the appointment and management of cadres. If a secretary of the provincial party committee promotes all his own people, and the governor is responsible for all government work, like this No one wants to be in a situation where good things are all their own, and problems are all to the governor.

The reports of the two newly added Standing Committee members of the Guangnan Provincial Party Committee were approved by the Central Committee not long after reporting to the central government. In the reception room of Building No. [-] of the Guangnan Hotel, Mu Guoxing had a conversation with Liu Xiangdong, the new Standing Committee member of the Provincial Party Committee.

"Comrade Xiangdong, the central government has approved the provincial party committee's report on adding you to the standing committee. Now you have a heavier burden on your shoulders and a greater responsibility. After a comrade went to Hongfeng City to serve as the secretary of the municipal party committee, the new Comrade Xiang Wenze, the mayor, has just taken office, and you are not very familiar with some situations, so your work will be more arduous. The provincial party committee hopes that the two of you can unite well, form a good team, and follow the five-year development plan formulated by your municipal party committee , do a good job step by step."

"Thank you, Secretary Mu, for your trust! Last night, I had a talk with comrade Yidong. Both of us believed that the burden on our shoulders was heavy, and we should firmly implement the instructions of the provincial party committee and do our job well. , will never disappoint your expectations of us."

Mu Guoxing knew that Liu Xiangdong hadn't said everything in his heart, but what he just said could represent his true thoughts now.That means the burden is heavy, and it is even more necessary to firmly implement the instructions of the provincial party committee. This is actually to express our heartfelt heart to Mu Guoxing.

"Compared to the old people in Jinshan City, your progress is relatively fast. I only have one request for you. No matter what the situation is, and no matter how high a leadership position you will go to in the future, you must work hard out of public interest. Work, this point cannot be shaken. This can be regarded as a mutual encouragement for our future work!"

Liu Xiangdong also heard the meaning of Mu Guoxing's words. From a secretary of the former provincial party committee secretary, it was Mu Guoxing's promotion that made him step by step from a department-level cadre to today's vice-ministerial-level secretary. In terms of position, it can also be said that without Mu Guoxing's cultivation, Liu Xiangdong would not be where he is today.What Mu Guoxing said just now also implied that if Liu Xiangdong, if he could work hard out of public interest in the future, then his status would be even higher.

Liu Xiangdong is also very clear that Mu Guoxing's achievements are definitely not limited to the current position of secretary of the provincial party committee. Judging from his work ability, political achievements, and family background, he will reach a high position sooner or later.Liu Xiangdong can also see from some recent events that Mu Guoxing is deliberately accumulating strength for his team.Leaving aside, just taking Sun Shuting and Li Qingshan, who were newly promoted by him, is enough to prove this point.

Before Lin Yidong went to work in Hongfeng City, Mu Guoxing also had a conversation with him in the office.Since the son-in-law of the old Song family got acquainted with Mu Guoxing, his official career can be described as ups and downs.When he was in Jinshan City, because he and Mu Guoxing had different governance philosophies, coupled with the problems between Song Weida and Song Weiqing, the relationship between the two was very bad. In the end, Mu Guoxing pushed Lin Yidong out Jinshan City.

At that time, the old Song family hadn't completely collapsed. After Lin Yidong returned to Beijing, he didn't stay for long. It took a lot of effort for Mr. Song to transfer his operation to Guangnan and serve as the mayor of Huajiang City.Originally, Lin Yidong wanted to make a difference in Guangnan, but unexpectedly, he was suppressed by Feng Songshan and other local factions, making his majestic mayor a mere display.

Later, when Mu Guoxing came to Guangnan to serve as the governor, Lin Yidong felt that because of the estrangement between him and Mu Guoxing, life would be even more difficult in the future.Unexpectedly, Mu Guoxing did not grasp his mistakes in Jinshan City at all, but supported his work, making him a mayor with power.From then on, Lin Yidong had a new understanding of Mu Guoxing.With the downfall of Lao Song's family, he also has the intention to do a good job with Mu Guoxing.

Text [-] Chapter [-] Afterwards Zhuge Liang (seeking flowers at the fourth watch)

Liu Xiangdong was transferred to Huajiang City as the secretary of the municipal party committee, and Lin Yidong also felt very unhappy for a while. The former subordinate now became his squad leader. It would be impossible if he didn't have any thoughts in his heart.
