Rebirth of the Rising Sun

In a room in the Tangche County Public Security Bureau building, Xiang Tong was trying his best to persuade Ying Weiquan.

"Comrade Ying Weiqun, you are also an old cadre and an old party member. You are also a cadre of our Harbin Province. Now is a turbulent time. You must not lose sight of the overall situation. Now that the entire team of your Tangche County Party Committee is in trouble, you must stand firm. No matter whether you did some things or not, I think for the sake of the overall situation, you might as well admit it first. I will definitely make the most appropriate arrangements for your affairs later. This is a test for you from the organization, okay?" Facing Ying Weiqun, Xiang Tong had no choice but to personally take the initiative to talk to him.

To say that a deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, a senior official at the vice-ministerial level, actually spoke to a junior cadre at the deputy-section level in this way is something that people would not even dare to think about under normal circumstances. This can be regarded as giving enough face to Ying Weiquan, and Ying Weiquan himself should be grateful and shed tears.

But now Ying Weiquan had no intention of being moved at all, not for any other reason, but because Xiang Tong was forcing him to admit things that he had not done.

I have just told my colleague that Ying Weiquan should admit that the 200,000 yuan was a bribe from others and admit that he has a problem. Because only in this way, only Ying Weiquan is indeed problematic, and the decision of the Tangche County Committee on him is not wrong. In this way, all the actions and behaviors taken by Feng Sizhe are wrong, and he will have the power to fight back.

But in this case, Ying Weiquan would inevitably suffer some grievances, and would actively become a problematic cadre from a non-problematic cadre. In this case, his political life would be over. Of course, he promised to give him some compensation, and I believe that this compensation would not be too low, so Ying Weiquan would have room for consideration.

If Xiang Tong had first approached Ying Weiquan to say these things a day ago, Ying Weiquan might have really considered agreeing to his request. After all, he was old and his career development would not have much prospects. It would be a good thing to retire at the level of a section chief. And now, through this matter, he could make the full-time deputy secretary of the provincial party committee owe him a favor, which was a sure win. But he had met Feng Sizhe first and knew about the relationship between this man and his daughter. With this in mind, how could he agree to Xiang Tong's request?

"Deputy Secretary Xiang, it's not that I don't agree to your request. It's just that as a party member, I have been educated by the party for many years, and I have always learned to speak honestly and seek truth from facts. Now you suddenly ask me to lie, I can't do it." Ying Weiquan tactfully expressed his disagreement with giving false testimony.

"Of course you can't. Aren't many things learnable? Asking you to give false testimony is for the sake of the overall situation, isn't it? You don't want so many leading cadres to be implicated because of you, right?" Xiang Tong saw that Ying Weiquan disagreed, and couldn't help but feel anxious.

"Deputy Secretary Xiang, I disagree with your point of view. Yes, as a party member, there are many things to learn, but the party constitution does not teach us to tell lies, let alone give false testimony. Besides, the leaders of the county party committee and the municipal party committee have problems, which should have nothing to do with me. I am just a small deputy director of the county government office, a dispensable role. They will not ask for my opinion when they do anything, don't you think?" Ying Weiquan started to ask Xiang Tong various questions.

Xiang Tong didn't expect that a deputy director of the county government office would dare to question him. He immediately got really angry, "Why, do you think I'm begging you? Let me tell you, since you're in my hands this time, you have to testify whether you agree or not. Come on, take him away first, don't give him food, and wait until he thinks it over before talking."

Xiang Tong really risked his life. Of course, the most important thing was that the situation was urgent and time was running out. It seemed too late to use his usual conciliatory policy. He had no choice but to use dictatorial means to deal with Ying Weiquan, hoping that this would scare him.

After Xiang Tong finished arranging these, someone came and took Ying Weiquan out. Then Liu Renliang walked into the room, "What's wrong, Deputy Secretary Xiang, did the talk go wrong?"

"It's not just that things are not going well. This Ying Weiquan is clearly a stone in the toilet, smelly and hard. No matter what I say, he won't listen. It really makes me angry." Xiang Tong said very angrily.

"Alas, Deputy Secretary Xiang, don't be anxious. We can't rush this kind of thing. Besides, we are not at the end of our rope now. Isn't Secretary Tian in the province still thinking of a solution for us? We just need to fight against Feng Sizhe and prevent him from further escalating the matter. To put it bluntly, this is Harbin Province, our territory. I don't believe that it will be good for him to continue like this." Liu Renliang was not very anxious. On the one hand, he had confidence in their Secretary Tian. On the other hand, he believed that Feng Sizhe's way of doing things would definitely make more people unhappy. Denying the decision of the first-level party organization is definitely not a small matter. If this thing really happens, will anyone follow suit in the future? Will anyone follow suit? If this is really the case, the order of the officialdom will be in chaos. So based on this alone, Liu Renliang determined that Feng Sizhe would definitely lose.

In the Tangche County Party Committee Hotel, in a room with relatively strict security, Cui Henghua took a tape and played it for Feng Sizhe.

Listening quietly to the recording of the conversation between Deputy Secretary Xiang Tong and Ying Weiquan, Feng Sizhe slammed the table heavily and said, "Very good, with this we are no longer afraid of them."

"Yes, the boss is very thoughtful. No matter how powerful Deputy Secretary Xiang is, he would never have thought that you would install such high-tech monitoring equipment on Ying Weiqun, haha." The ordinary driver Li Shuang said with a smile.

"Okay, make more copies of the tapes. Also, this matter is absolutely not allowed to be spread outside, do you understand?" Feng Sizhe thought that this was his trump card, an important card in his hand, and he couldn't let others know about this easily, otherwise it would not have the desired effect.

"Yes, please rest assured, boss." Cui Henghua and Li Shuang in the room both nodded heavily. They also knew that this matter was highly confidential, otherwise, Feng Sizhe would not have brought only the driver Li Shuang to listen to this.

Kyoto, Zhongnanhai.

In the General Secretary's office, Comrade Qin Xianghua was listening to the work report of Comrade Zheng Zhi, Vice Premier of the State Council.

After more than ten minutes of business talk, Qin Xianghua smiled and said to Zheng Zhi, "Come on, have some tea first. I want to hear your opinion on something."

Zheng Zhi straightened his body. He knew that something more important than reporting work was coming. The General Secretary wanted to see both his attitude and his opinion.

"Comrade Zheng Zhi, don't sit so straight. Let's just chat casually. There's no need to be so nervous. Come, take a look at these two documents first." Qin Xianghua smiled and handed the two documents in his hand to Comrade Zheng Zhi, then began to drink tea with a smile.

Zheng Zhi quickly read through the two documents on hand, weighing the options in his mind.

These two documents talk about the same thing, but they describe it from different angles and attitudes.

Of course, the information in the document is all about Ying Weiquan's incidents in Tangche County, Jiahong City, Harbin Province. The people who reported the incidents were Comrade Tian Longshan, Secretary of the Harbin Provincial Party Committee, and Comrade Feng Sizhe, Director of the Supervision Office of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. The two reported the Tangche County issues to the Central Committee with different attitudes.

The former said that this was originally a small matter, but the Inspection Office made a fuss out of it, and made Tangche County, and even the Jiahong Municipal Party Committee and Government panic because of this small matter. This is not conducive to economic development, stability and unity. Others emphasized that the decision made on Comrade Ying Weiquan was a collective decision made by the Tangche County Party Committee and County Government. Therefore, if there is a mistake in this matter, it must be the fault of the organization. The organization will not make mistakes. If it is really wrong, it is also because the people who understand this decision have a wrong mind. For this reason, Comrade Tian Longshan hopes that the central government can consider this matter in detail, and then transfer the people in the Inspection Office back to Kyoto to return stability and unity to Harbin Province.

The latter did say that the case of Comrade Ying Weiquan was a complete injustice, but some people did put a hat on Comrade Ying Weiquan in the name of the organization. In line with the Party's principle of not letting a bad person go and not wrongly accusing a good person, the Inspection Office intervened in this case and planned to use this case as a typical example to let the so-called Tangche County-level Party organization withdraw its previous decision, rehabilitate the wronged comrades, and punish the problematic cadres, so that Tangche County would be a clean government.

"How about it, Comrade Zheng Zhi, have you finished reading it?" Qin Xianghua put down the teacup in his hand and asked Zheng Zhi.

"Secretary Qin, I have finished reading it." Zheng Zhi put down the information in his hand and answered.

"Well, what do you think about this matter?" Qin Xianghua looked at Zheng Zhi in a kind manner, looking forward to his answer.

How could such a thing be figured out so quickly and expressed? At first glance, there are two attitudes in this matter. In fact, it is the opinion of localists such as Tian Longshan and Xiang Tong, and the other is the opinion of young people and radicals such as Feng Sizhe. The two opinions can be roughly divided into conservative and creative. These two completely different opinions met together, and it seemed a bit difficult for Zheng Zhi to immediately express his support for whom.
