Han Xiangning wants to "take charge of the overall situation" and cannot do everything by himself like before. The docks where the two accident ships berthed were relatively far apart. It wasn't until the afternoon of the next day after the investigation that she learned that Han Yu was also here.

She didn't think it was a pity that Han Yu didn't go to the capital to watch the military parade. Instead, she was very happy. After all, who doesn't want his lover to be by his side.

Just because of the special nature of the work, we can't always be together, so we can only communicate by phone.

With her consent, Han Yu boarded the freighter that had just launched a sea trial and had a collision with the second investigation team, and listened to the second investigation team's inquiries throughout the process.

The results were astonishing.

The "Atoha" cargo ship that collided with the Jianghan 21 was built by Jinling Shipyard, and the captain and crew of the trial voyage were also arranged by Jinling Shipyard. The Jinling Shipyard, like the Hanwu Yangtze River Passenger Transport Company, are both enterprises under the China Yangtze River Shipping "Group" Corporation!

Floods washed away the Dragon King Temple, and our passenger ship collided with our own-built freighter. What a big deal...

Han Yu figured out the whole story and returned to the shore to find Director Zhang Junyan, who had been organizing search and rescue operations on the river for two days. He asked: "Director Zhang, they are both Changhang Shipping Company's ships. Is it clear who has the greater responsibility and who has the lesser responsibility? Fight over and over again." Does it make sense to go?”

Zhang Junyan looked back behind him, pulled Han Yu aside, and asked: "You and the police from the Jianfu Smuggling Crime Investigation Bureau are both members of the smuggling crime investigation system. If you have a conflict with them, for example, over the jurisdiction of the case, If there is any controversy, will you show your style and let others do it?"

"No, Jianfu is so far away from our Binjiang. It is said to be vertically managed. It sounds like a family, but in fact it is not."

"This is it."

Zhang Junyan patted his arm and said meaningfully: "Jinling Shipyard is in Jiangcheng, and Hanwu Passenger Transport Company is in Hanwu. The two companies are so far away. The passenger transport company's passenger ships are not even repaired at Jinling Shipyard. How can people put the Passenger Transport Company Be a family and vice versa.”

Han Yu smiled bitterly and said, "But I always feel a little weird."

"The passenger transport company has a general manager responsibility system, and the shipyard has a factory director responsibility system. To put it nicely, both parties must be responsible for their own companies, but to put it worst, no one wants to be held accountable, so what should be investigated should still be investigated, and responsibilities should be divided. It still needs to be divided.”

"Isn't this going to be a den of fighting?"

"There is no way, everyone wants to survive."

Everyone wants to survive!

This is to the point.

Han Yu suddenly realized that this accident really needed to be investigated clearly, because it involved who died and who lived among the two companies of Changhang Airlines.

Is it easy for Jinling Shipyard to receive orders from German shipowners?

Although the cargo ship built is only 99 meters long and has a gross tonnage of 4,700, which is not a big ship at all, it is a foreign trade order. Competition in the international shipbuilding industry is so fierce. If the shipowner abandons the ship due to this accident, the loss will be huge, and it may really go bankrupt.

Even if the German shipowner is willing to take over the accident ship, it will not be at the original price.

Moreover, the impact of the collision is not only whether the ship can be delivered, but also directly affects whether we can get orders from foreign shipowners this year!

After all, even if something happens to you during a sea trial, who would dare to ask you to help build a ship again?

Without orders, how can the shipyard pay wages to so many employees and repay bank loans?

For the Hanwu Yangtze River Passenger Transport Company, this accident is also related to the life and death of the company. If it is fully or mainly responsible, it must compensate the shipyard for its losses. The losses were already serious and there was no money to compensate.

At the same time, we must also take into account the policy direction. Superiors have long been unfavorable to the Yangtze River Passenger Transport. It is just because the stall is too big and there are too many cadres and workers. They don’t know how to deal with it for a while.

You are not up to par. A collision occurred at this juncture and caused casualties, making it impossible for the leaders to explain to their superiors. It is difficult to say whether the leaders will stop all passenger ships in a fit of anger.

The Changhang Airlines Public Security Bureau may seem like a “third party”, but in fact it has a symbiotic relationship with several major Yangtze River Passenger Transport companies. If these major Yangtze River Passenger Transport companies go bankrupt, many Changhang Airlines police officers will also be laid off.

In other words, the Changhang Public Security Bureau and the Yangtze River Passenger Transport Company are from the same company and have nothing to do with the Jinling Shipyard. The position of the Changhang Public Security Bureau on this matter can be imagined.

Just when Han Yu was getting more and more uncomfortable, Zhang Junyan asked in a low voice: "How is the investigation going? Is the 'Atoha' responsible?"

"There is a responsibility, and it is not a small responsibility."

"Be specific."

"First of all, the 'Atoha', like the 'Jianghan 21', sailed in the fog in violation of regulations. When they returned to the Zhengyi tanker anchorage after the trial voyage, the visibility was only 100 meters, but they did not pay much attention to it and continued to sail in the fog, even The horn was not sounded as required."

Han Yu paused and then said: "Secondly, their route selection was wrong and they did not cross the Yangtze River within the traversing area stipulated in the "Traffic Separation Rules for the Lower Yangtze River". They crossed the river in advance at the Zhengyi Hongfu bending section and occupied The route of the downstream ship was blocked. It directly caused the two ships to move towards each other in a traffic lane."

Zhang Junyan stared at Han Yu and asked, "They violated traffic rules and didn't use the crosswalk to cross the road?"

"almost."

"So in terms of choosing the wrong route, they are on a par with Jianghan's 21st round of crossing the bridge without obeying traffic control instructions."

"In the words of Bureau Feng, a slap in the face can't make a difference. These two major violations of the two families have a strong causal relationship with the accident."

The leaders of the Changhang Public Security Bureau are waiting for news.

Zhang Junyan asked: "Is there any more?"

"have."

Han Yu looked back at the river and said: "They also neglected to look around (marine affairs use lookouts, not lookouts), made mistakes in judgment, and did not use safe speed. When they were crossing the river, they found the Jianghan 21 ship, and the intentions of both sides were revealed. In the inconsistent situation, he failed to slow down and stop as required, failed to take effective avoidance measures, blindly steered 10 degrees left, and never returned to the rudder, which ultimately led to the accident."

Zhang Junyan was stunned for a moment, and then asked with a vague understanding: "They had the opportunity to avoid the collision and took evasive measures. However, due to their poor driving skills, they not only failed to get out of the way, but actually crashed into it?"

"Although I was a spectator and did not ask the question personally. But it can be seen that the captain of the 'Atoha' may not have sailed the ship much."

Han Yu turned around and glanced at the direction in which the investigation team members were leaving, then thought about it and said: "If possible, Manager Zhang strongly recommends that the investigation team check the qualifications of the trial captain of the 'Atoha' and find out his How to get the certificate of competency.”

Zhang Junyan asked with a wry smile: "How to check this?"

"If you're afraid of offending people, admit it. If you don't want to admit it, you can't be afraid of offending people. If that doesn't work, you can suggest that the investigation team ask the Crew Examination Department to organize a separate exam for him to see if he is suitable to be the captain of a seagoing ship."

"How sure are you?"

"If it were me, even if I hadn't discovered Jianghan 21 before, even if I was rowing illegally like them, when they discovered Jianghan 21, I would have been 100% sure to avoid a collision. In fact, it's not just me, anyone with some experience can The ship captain can get out of the way."

Han Yu paused and said in a positive tone: "In my opinion, he is only at the level of a third officer."

Zhang Junyan didn't think Han Yu would make a mistake, so he immediately took out his mobile phone: "I understand, I will report to the bureau leader right now."

…

The investigation lasted four days.

Based on Han Yu's investigation results, the passenger transport company submitted a maritime statement on the Jianghan 21, admitting that the Jianghan 21 violated regulations, and pointed out that the Atoha had more violations and was more responsible. And questioned the competency of the trial captain of the ‘Atoha’.

The captain's certificate of competency was issued by the Maritime Safety Administration, so it was difficult for the Tang Bureau to comment.

Han Xiangning's experience in law enforcement on the water does not mean he can sail a ship. He immediately asked his superiors to invite three experienced sea captains to help him come up with a few questions for the captain to answer.

Sure enough, he failed!

To ensure nothing went wrong, Han Xiangning, with the approval of his superiors, took the captain to Jiangcheng Shipping School. Using the ship simulation operation equipment of Jiangcheng Shipping School, he asked three experienced seagoing ship captains to give several practical training questions.

As a result, he failed again!

Just when Han Xiangning asked for instructions to arrange for investigators to go to the relevant maritime safety bureau to find out how the captain's certificate of competency was obtained, his superiors did not agree.

Han Xiangning was very disappointed, but when she thought about it, she felt it was normal. After all, the family scandal should not be made public.

Besides, this accident is embarrassing enough. The ships of two companies under the Changhang Navigation Group collided, and the Changhang Navigation Group is an enterprise of the Ministry of Transport...

When the investigation results were reported, the leaders and captains of the two companies lowered their heads and did not dare to refute.

Deputy Director S Ren and Deputy Director Mei of the Maritime Safety Bureau of the Ministry of Transport were both present. Han Xiangning calmed down and concluded in a calm tone: "To sum up, the collision between the 'Atoha' and the 'Jianghan 21' was a responsible accident! The 'Atoha' ship took the wrong route, sailed in the fog, neglected the lookout, and took wrong approach avoidance measures. These were the main reasons for the accident and should bear the main responsibility. The 'Jianghan 21' ship sailed in the fog, neglected the lookout, and failed to do so. Taking effective avoidance measures was the secondary cause of the accident and should bear secondary responsibility!"

When Jianghan 21 set sail from Pier 6 of Jiangcheng Port, it was against the rules to cross the bridge without obeying the traffic control center's instructions. However, the Yangtze River Bridge was far away from the accident waters, and there was no legal causal relationship with the accident.

Han Xiangning had already asked the legal department cadre of the investigation team to explain this before, and the person in charge of the shipyard could not refute it.

Just when the leaders thought the investigation was over, Han Xiangning picked up a thick stack of penalty notices and said coldly: "We will give you the accident investigation results just reported in writing. But before that, , both of you violated Article 6, Article 8, Article 9, Article 10, Paragraph 1 of the "Regulations for Preventing Collisions on Inland Rivers"...

As well as imposing administrative penalties on you for violating the provisions of Article 8, Paragraph 3 and Article 9 of the "Regulations on Traffic Separation of Navigation in the Lower Yangtze River" and "Several Measures for Water Traffic Safety on the Main Lines of the Yangtze River" by the ship 'Atoha'. This is an administrative penalty notice. Please read it first and sign it if you have no objection. "

This is an accident investigation, and there is actually a fine component.

Deputy Director S Ren was surprised, and Deputy Director Mei was also stunned.

Han Xiangning did not pay attention to the expressions of the leaders and added: "If you have any objections, you must sign it, because this is a penalty notice, but you can file an administrative lawsuit with Jiangcheng Maritime Court within fifteen working days."

It is indeed a violation, and the investigation has been very clear in the past few days.

The leaders of both parties and the captain had no choice but to sign.

The leaders walked out of the large conference room, but did not go downstairs. Instead, they came to the small conference room to have a small meeting.

Deputy Director S Ren signaled his secretary to come to the door and asked meaningfully: "Mei Bureau, the investigation results are out, what do you think?"

"Director Ren S, the investigation team's work was very detailed and comprehensive. I think the investigation results are OK."

"I think there's something wrong!"

"what is the problem?"

Deputy Director S Ren looked at the directors and deputy directors of Jiangnan Maritime Safety Bureau and Jiangcheng Maritime Safety Bureau, knocked on the table and said bluntly: "Everyone, you are the law enforcement department that maintains water traffic safety. You are the water traffic police of our southern section of the Yangtze River. Please tell me why the ship did not obey the command and dispatched and crossed the bridge in the fog!"

Deputy Director Mei suddenly realized why the leader of Jiangnan Province knocked on the table.

Jiangcheng is a city that spans both sides of the Yangtze River. In front of it is the Yangtze River Bridge. What if the bridge is hit instead of a ship, and the bridge collapses?

"Everyone, I have privately asked the comrades who participated in the investigation, and they told me that people who do not obey orders and dispatches often happen. What does this mean? Can the Jiangcheng Maritime Safety Bureau manage water traffic safety well? If not, I will let Jiangcheng The local maritime safety bureau will take care of it.”

Deputy Chief Ren took a deep breath and continued: "If the Jiangcheng Local Maritime Safety Bureau can't take care of it, I'll let the Transportation Department take care of it!"

The local leaders are angry. This is not a small matter.

Mei Ju turned around and looked at a group of subordinates.

Huang Yuanchang broke out in a cold sweat and did not dare to look up at the leader.

This is the Maritime Affairs Department of the Ministry of Transport, a vertical management unit. Deputy Director Ren could only get angry. Seeing that they were all silent, he stood up and said, "I will report to Secretary Chen and Director Wu tomorrow afternoon. Bureau Mei, I'm sorry to bother you." My subordinates must give me some materials before going to work tomorrow, otherwise I won’t know how to tell Secretary Chen and Chief Wu.”

Give me some materials, this is for rectification.

Deputy Director Mei had a big head, but his subordinates were really weak, so he could only bite the bullet and said: "Okay."

The leaders at the provincial and municipal levels have all left.

Deputy Director Mei said with a gloomy face: "Put your head up, think about the shortcomings in your work, and tell me why the ships sailing in the waters of Jiangcheng do not obey the command!"

"Mei Ju, our work has not been done well. I will review it."

"What's the use of review? If there are problems, we have to solve them!"

What happened next made the Mei Bureau dumbfounded. Some began to complain and talked about difficulties, such as not enough law enforcement personnel and few law enforcement boats.

Some people say that this is a problem left over from history. The maritime law enforcement team is older and generally has a low level of education...

Director Mei was angry and said seriously: "Huang Yuanchang, it's your turn. You are the director of Jiangcheng Maritime Affairs. You have to take the main responsibility. Tell me what's going on and tell me something useful!"

"Mei Bureau." Huang Yuanchang calmed down and raised his head and said: "I am responsible. I did not lead the team well. Especially in law enforcement, we...we have shortcomings."

"What are the shortcomings?"

"Jiangcheng is the provincial capital and has many state-owned shipping companies. The predecessor of our Maritime Affairs Bureau is the Port Supervision, and the Harbor Supervision is independent from the port and shipping companies. This directly causes our law enforcement officers to worry about offending people when it comes to ship violations against state-owned enterprises. , dare not take care of it.”

Huang Yuanchang took a deep breath and continued: "Furthermore, the Jiangcheng waterway is not deep enough, and there are few 10,000-ton seagoing ships coming to Jiangcheng Port. It usually mainly supervises inland river ships. The law enforcement level of the law enforcement team has been standing still. Unlike the brother Maritime Safety Administration downstream, Because there are many foreign ships and many giant ships, the level of supervision and law enforcement has been continuously improved under the pressure of the external environment.”

This sounds like some words.

Deputy Director Mei asked coldly: "How to solve these problems?"

"First of all, we must rectify the style of the law enforcement team. To use a simple analogy, Jianghan 21 did not obey the command of the traffic control center and insisted on crossing the bridge in the fog. If this situation occurs in the jurisdiction of Binjiang Maritime Safety Bureau, the Binjiang Maritime Safety Bureau Traffic Management Center and the following maritime We will immediately arrange for law enforcement officers to take coast patrol boats to pursue him on the river."

Huang Yuanchang looked back at several leaders, and then said: "It won't work if we don't pursue it. If we don't pursue it or stop it, water traffic accidents will happen. But we can't do it in Jiangcheng Maritime Safety Bureau. I am incompetent as the director. I will review it."

Those who can work in provincial capital cities are those with some background or are veterans.

Huang Yuanchang took office at the end of last year. It is normal for the people below him not to listen to greetings. After all, it takes more than a day to freeze three feet.

Deputy Director Mei realized that he should give Huang Yuanchang some strong support and motioned for him to continue.

"Furthermore, in terms of water law enforcement, we need a comrade who is resolute and not afraid of offending others. For example, Comrade Han Xiangning, who just reported the results of the accident investigation, is known as the 'little fine expert' in Binjiang. When she was the captain of the patrol team in Bailong Port, she was When ships sail to her jurisdiction, they all slow down.

Later, she served as the director of Linghai Port Supervision. Linghai Port was under construction and the traffic situation in Linghai waters was so complicated, but due to her efforts, not even a single accident occurred. Law enforcement must be strict, and violations must be investigated. It is easy to say, but not so easy to do. We need talents like her now. "

Deputy Director Mei had a good impression of Han Xiangning. He turned around and said, "Comrade Yang, Bureau Tang, and Comrade Yuanchang have all mentioned this. Please express your stance."

"Mei Ju, we must support Comrade Yuanchang's work."

"First of all, we should rectify the team's work style. If anyone does not listen to the instructions, he will be punished when he should be punished, and he will be transferred when he should be transferred. No mercy, no mercy!"

"yes."

"Then we need to talk to Comrade Han Xiangning and transfer her to Jiangcheng as soon as possible. She is now a full-time officer, can she be promoted to deputy director in an unusual way? She can be transferred to Jiangcheng Maritime Safety Bureau as deputy director, in charge of water law enforcement."

How could Han Xiangning leave Binjiang? If she came to Jiangcheng, wouldn't she be separated from Xianyu?

Director Tang was in a big trouble, but he couldn't object in front of the leader, so he could only look at the director.

Director Yang didn't understand the situation and said without hesitation: "Director Mei, we will have a heart-to-heart talk with Comrade Han Xiangning later and make an unusual offer of deputy director. I think she should be willing."
