Chapter 56: After reading the scriptures and hitting the monk
At night, Tong Susu had to work overtime to rehearse. Lu Zheng and Tong's mother had dinner together in the county recruitment canteen. Then he heard some waiters and cadres greet Lu Zheng respectfully. Some people called "Secretary Lu" and some people "County Magistrate Lu". Tong's mother couldn't help but have a short circuit in her brain. After a long time, she gradually learned during her conversation with Lu Zheng that the young man in front of him also served as the secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee and deputy county magistrate of the County Party Committee, and was also one of the members of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee.
Tong's mother couldn't help but sigh deeply and said, "God blesses good people in this world. Zhengzi, if you are kind-hearted, you will be blessed by noble people."
Not to mention Lu Zheng's age, it is also a very complicated process for ordinary cadres to be promoted to the county party committee standing committee. The right time, place and people are in harmony. Among them, connections are the most critical and important. When looking at Lu Zheng, Tong's mother knew in her heart that this young man would definitely not be as simple as his daughter's eyes.
Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Auntie has been living in Guangning for a while. Anyway, if you have any problems in the future, just say, don't treat me as an outsider."
Tong's mother nodded slightly, but there was an invisible gap against Lu Zheng. It would be impossible for her to be a member of the county party committee standing committee. Who knows who is standing behind this young man? What if he is wrong with the old man? Too much words will lead to mistakes. Some things she revealed inadvertently may cause an uproar.
Lu Zheng keenly felt the change in Tong's mother's attitude, but didn't say much, just smiled and chatted with her for dinner. Then, he drove her back to the rented bungalow in the county suburbs.
...
In a blink of an eye, after a heavy snowfall, the Spring Festival is approaching.
The crew of "Dream of Red Mansions" left Guangning after New Year's Day due to weather reasons. Lu Zheng occasionally went to Wushan to see Tong's mother and also knew about Tong Susu's recent situation. It is said that her status in the crew is becoming more and more stable, and she is appreciated by the director. Many scenes have stolen Lin's limelight.
Lu Zheng couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking that "Dream of Red Mansions" is no longer the version he had watched. Perhaps by the time it was officially released, the dispute between Baochai and Daiyu would bring a new feeling to the media and audience.
The reform of the contract system of the county fertilizer plant was officially launched. The county has set up a special leading group, with Lu Zheng as the group leader, deputy county magistrate, and director of the economic and economic committee Wang Dong as the deputy group leader. Most of the group members are the heads of relevant ministries, commissions and bureaus.
At the same time, Wang Zhiwei, director of the county audit bureau, and Du Botao, director of the county commercial bureau, were investigated by the Discipline Inspection Commission, which caused an uproar in the Guangning officialdom.
At the last meeting of the county party committee standing committee before the Spring Festival, the important topic discussed was what kind of punishment should Du Botao be punished.
The Discipline Inspection Commission has basically investigated Du Botao's case. Du Botao's wife Lin Haixia's trading company, under the banner of Du Botao, speculated and sold the planned affordable goods of the commercial company in the county to other places, making huge profits. Now Lin Haixia has been detained in the detention center, and Du Botao has also been temporarily suspended.
The first topic of the Standing Committee this time is how to deal with Du Botao in accordance with the party discipline and government discipline, and how to convict Lin Haixia.
The president of the county court, the procurator general of the procuratorate, the director of the judicial bureau and other responsible persons from the judicial front attended the meeting to listen. In today's political atmosphere, it is a very common procedure for the Party to guide judicial organs to judge cases.
In fact, it is obvious that the tone of the secretary meeting has set the tone for Du Botao's case, and Qiu Dahe and Jiang Haiyan must have reached a certain consensus. At the meeting, the main part was the deputy secretary and secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission Peng Hongjun. He denounced Du Botao's various mistakes and looked heartbroken: "Comrades, we must take it as a warning. When the economy is alive, our hearts cannot be alive. As party cadres, we must strictly demand ourselves and be as calm as water!"
Obviously, as the power of the Commission for Discipline Inspection was implemented, Peng Hongjun's back gradually became tough.
Finally, Peng Hongjun proposed to dismiss Du Botao on the spot, remove all positions inside and outside the party, and stay in the party for two years for probation. Du Botao's lover Lin Haixia and related suspects were transferred to the procuratorate for judicial action.
When staying in the party for probation, usually, you will be removed from your party positions, and it is recommended that non-party groups also be removed from their positions.
Jiang Haiyan interjected when Peng Hongjun was speaking, "I hope the comrades from the Discipline Inspection Commission and the Procuratorate can verify Lin Haixia's illegal income, and this part of the income must be turned over to the state treasury." Her words were naturally accusing the court of judgment.
To be fair, Jiang Haiyan did not kill Du Botao with a blow. After all, his wife was fond of her private bags outside under the banner of Du Botao. If he said he had no idea, it would be unlikely that. In the end, Jiang Haiyan was spared from Du Botao's prison, which would be considered as mercy.
In the current social atmosphere, there is zero tolerance for exposed corruption cases of officials, which is not like later generations, and is not surprising. Some local official media have even put forward various fallacies that can be sentenced lightly, such as "special talent theory", "theory of not causing losses to the country", etc. So Jiang Haiyan is very light in his actions.
Jiang Haiyan had just finished speaking, and Peng Hongjun was about to agree, but Lu Zheng put out the cigarette butt and smiled and said, "Red Army Secretary, will I give a few words?"
Lu Zheng was in charge of the judicial affairs of the party and government, but the secretary did not notify him to attend the meeting when he met to discuss the case. At this time, he wanted to speak, and the people present suddenly seemed to be in a state of energy. He was sleepy, but he sat upright, thinking in his heart that this living bandit might be about to set off fire again.
Everyone is waiting to watch the show.
Peng Hongjun glanced at Lu Zheng with a pale face and said nothing. Since Lu Zheng directly asked him "What is it?" at the Standing Committee, there would be no room for ease of ease of relieving the terror of the relationship between the two.
But Lu Zheng didn't look at him and began to speak on his own. He sighed and said, "The reform spring breeze blows all over the ground, but in this warm spring breeze, if our cadres cannot keep a clear mind, this spring breeze may be a sandstorm, blowing down black gauze all over the ground."
Qiu Dahe picked up the teacup. Every time Lu Zheng spoke at the meeting, it was surprising. But after the meeting, you always find that no matter whether he got angry or improvised conversation, the result was only one result, that is, the tone of the meeting changed to a direction that was beneficial to him. Perhaps it was a coincidence, or intentional, but no matter what, Qiu Dahe gradually felt that Lu Gangtou was actually far from as simple as it seemed.
Jiang Haiyan was very calm when facing anyone. Only when she saw Lu Zheng's lazy appearance, she hated her teeth itched. But sometimes, she still had to rely on Lu Zheng, such as the restructuring of a fertilizer factory, which was very consistent with her ideas. Perhaps, with her personality, it was a miracle that it had not moved Lu Zheng until now.
But human tolerance is always limited.
Lu Zheng also felt that recently, Jiang Haiyan's attitude towards him has changed a little. Perhaps, he is planning something recently. Du Botao has fallen. Will it be him next?
After knocking on the table, Jiang Haiyan frowned and said, "Most cadres are still good, don't be too exaggerated! We are all public servants of the people, and the statements like black hats are not appropriate!"
Lu Zheng nodded slightly and said, "I agree with you. Now our cadres are naturally good comrades, but what about the future? Can our cadres resist the temptation of power in their hands in the economic tide?"
Peng Hongjun acted as usual, knocked on the table like Jiang Haiyan, and said, "We will consider these factors. Let's be down-to-earth and consider the issue of Guangning! Deputy County Magistrate Lu, do you think so?" He was contemptuous. Lu Gangtou was really hypocritical. He didn't know, but he thought you were the General Secretary of the Party Central Committee.
Peng Hongjun added accent to the four words "Deputy County Magistrate Lu", and anyone could hear the meaning of his words.
Lu Zheng ignored Peng Hongjun's ridicule and just nodded, "Botao's case gave me an idea. Are there any deviations in the sentencing of corrupt cadres using power for personal gain? Of course, Botao is not a corrupt criminal, I just felt it."
Peng Hongjun frowned and said, "I have taken special care of Du Botao's handling. I think he has been an old party member and an old cadre who has been for many years and is unaware of his lover's crimes. What? Do you think it's serious?" He thought Lu Zheng took advantage of the situation and was ready to excuse Du Botao.
Lu Zheng shook his hand and smiled, "I think it's too light, especially in the illegal income. Whether it's corruption and bribery or the income obtained by using power for personal gain, is it that our crime cost is too light? Just talk about corruption and bribery. I think it's good to have 70 to 8 out of ten property that can be truly verified. Many bribers will not come out to report it."
"If it is a big case of hundreds of thousands or millions, then perhaps after the verified illegal income is confiscated, these criminals can still leave behind tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of black income, and this money, ordinary wages, may not be able to make money in several lifetimes. Then I can't help but ask, can some of our punishments really deter criminals?"
"As for the confiscation of property by economic criminals in the criminal law, it is very vague, and there are many more problems that need to be solved." Lu Zheng said, picked up a teacup and drank a few sips of water, and continued: "So in the punishment of embezzlement and bribery and using power for personal gain, I think an additional fine should be imposed. In addition to confiscating illegal income, a certain proportion of fines must be imposed. This proportion can be discussed again."
People in the conference room looked at me, and I looked at you. Many people seemed to be unable to understand what Lu Zheng was saying. Only Jiang Haiyan narrowed her eyes thoughtfully.
Lu Zheng said again: "In this way, let me give you an example, for example, someone embezzled 100 million yuan."
There was a "coaxing" sound in the venue immediately, and Peng Hongjun frowned and said, "How is this possible?"
