"This is what happened. I will send specific examples and data to your email later."
On the phone, Xiao Qi explained everything that happened today to his father one by one.
Xiao Xu nodded repeatedly as he listened.
The "Rising Sun Commentator" mentioned the issue of drunk driving once before, but it seems that the effect is not very big, at least at the official level, there is still no change reflected.
After that, Xiao Xu had too many things to do, so he put these things aside for the time being.
Now that his son was talking about the case again, Xiao Xu suddenly felt that this matter could not be delayed any longer. He should use the strongest attitude to make everyone more aware of the huge harm of drunk driving.
After putting down the phone, Xiao Xu was still busy with his work, but when he didn't work overtime today and went home directly after get off work, after dinner, Secretary Xiao locked himself in the study and wrote a review article.
On the morning of the third day, the article "On the Serious Social Harms Caused by Drunk Driving", which has a thousand words, was ranked on the second page of today's reference. This is already the benefit of Secretary Xiao's rising status.
Okay. - Don't get me wrong, the status mentioned here refers to his position as a counselor in the financial field and national development level, not his official position.
Xiao Qi collected a lot of cases and data for Xiao Xu. Once compiled, it can be said to be shocking.
For example, in the past three years, both drunk driving and drunk driving data have been increasing at a rate of more than 20%, which not only brings huge physical harm to people, but also has a huge negative impact on society, affecting people's living and working in peace and contentment.
Harmonious environment.
Moreover, with the improvement of people's living standards, the per capita car ownership has increased significantly. If it is not strictly stopped, the possibility of accidents will be greater, and the harm of drunk driving and drunk driving will be greater.
The reason, Xiao Xu bluntly pointed out, is that the cost of breaking the law is too low, which makes these drivers unscrupulous.
For example, drunk driving only deducts 6 points, which is nothing to the 12 points on a driver's license and has no impact.
If the points deducted for drunk driving are increased to 12 points, and these drunk drivers have to retake the test again, it will be a great deterrent to them.
Even going one step further, they are not allowed to retake the driver's license within three months; after retaking the driver's license and obtaining the driver's license, if they commit the crime again, they are not allowed to retake the driver's license within one year; if they commit the third offense, they will be banned from driving for life.
Such a severe punishment will certainly deter many people from trying the law easily.
There are also more serious drunk driving. Once caught, it will not be as easy as it is now. In addition to deducting 12 points, you should be banned from driving for life, plus more than one year in jail. If the circumstances are particularly serious, you should be
shall be sentenced to imprisonment for not less than three years.
At the same time, law enforcement departments should set an example and impose more severe penalties than ordinary people on civil servants and public servants who also drive drunk. They must not engage in favoritism or malpractice. Only by ensuring fairness, fairness and openness in law enforcement can the whole society be benefited.
The public actively supports the implementation of the law.
Finally, Xiao Xu also solemnly appealed that these regulations should not just stay in "opinions" and "temporary measures", but should "include drunk driving as a punishment", that is, the treatment plan for drunk driving should be written into the most authoritative punishment
In the criminal law, this can ensure the most severe punishment.
Since a lot of useful information, data, and examples were provided, all of which were closely linked to the center, this internal and reference article was quickly placed on the desks of the top executives.
Of course, outsiders had no way of knowing what they discussed, but Niu Ruzheng got the news the next day and called Xiao Qi.
"You two father and son are really good at tossing things up." Niu Ruzheng said with a hearty smile: "It's done all of a sudden! The general opinion has been finalized. It will be discussed and raised at the special session of the National People's Congress at the latest before the Olympic Games and in June at the earliest.
Review and formally write it into the criminal law!"
"So fast?"
Xiao Qi said in surprise.
He knows how troublesome it is to amend a law in China. How could he make a decision so quickly?
"So you are a very lucky person." Niu Ruzheng sighed, "Experts from the Ministry of Public Security had this idea and have been discussing it, but they didn't say it openly. Secondly, it was immediately
It's the Olympics. Not only are there many foreigners in the capital, but there are even more foreigners coming to China for tourism. The problem of drunk driving is very noteworthy. It would not be good if something happened to damage the country's image.
Thirdly, at the national level, we also have great expectations for the stability and harmony of the entire society. Drunk driving is a very terrible disaster in peacetime, second only to various natural disasters. It is shocking to see Comrade Xiao Xu analyze and analyze it so
, as soon as everyone takes advantage of the trend, it will become a thing!"
When Xiao Qi heard Niu Ruzheng say this, he suddenly realized.
It turns out it was the right time!
To sum it up, compared to the official start of implementation on April 1, 2010 in the previous life, now thanks to the efforts of the two fathers and sons, it is almost two years ahead of schedule. How much loss will be reduced and how many casualties will be reduced?
Apart from anything else, the young man surnamed Sun should not have taken huge legal risks and caused such a heinous crime by drunk driving without a license. Several families can remain happy because of this, and they will not be like in the previous life.
tragic.
To sum up, this matter is of great benefit and no harm. The merit lies in the country and the benefit lies in the future!
"But Uncle Niu, one more important thing is that civil servants and public service personnel cannot do anything special." Xiao Qi thought of something and said seriously: "On the contrary, they should be punished more severely.
Jurisdiction! According to my method, if you are caught, you will be fired from the public office immediately! We can’t let them take any chances! Once the people know about it, our good intentions will be counterproductive."
"I know this problem." Niu Ruzheng, who has always practiced what he does, said after hearing the words: "There will also be specific requirements, and there should be stricter requirements for them. Originally, what they enjoy is better than that of ordinary people, and then
How can we get a legal accommodation? We have been too lenient with them in recent years, and they will only become more stringent in the future. Don’t worry!”
Xiao Qi was delighted when he heard this. After 2013, large-scale rectifications were indeed carried out in this way. It would be great if he could just start doing this five years in advance at his own request!
However, the policy in this area is not as simple as criminalizing drunk driving. It involves all aspects of matters, and it is difficult to achieve it in one step.
The country is so big, there is nothing wrong with proceeding slowly and moving forward step by step.
…
On the evening of the same day, Xie Minjuan, who had hit the wall several times, came to her father's house again.
It has been two or three years since Xie Pingyun retired, but his spirit and body have always been good. He lives in the small courtyard of the retired provincial family villa. On weekdays, some old friends play chess and mahjong in groups.
When I have time to go hiking and play, I will have a few drinks if I have nothing to do, and my life will be very leisurely.
I don’t know what kind of work Xie Minjuan did. Her mother Ji Hong, who was not very open to the public, also spoke to the old man: "I say Lao Xie, Xunxun is the only child of our family. You said being punished is one thing, but
I heard that I will be sentenced to half a year in prison, I’m afraid that’s enough? Hasn’t Juan’er already compensated them? What else do they want?”
Xie Pingyun just came back from having a drink with some old friends. Hearing this, he looked at his daughter, whose eyes were swollen from crying, and smiled bitterly.
"Juan'er, how do you think dad can help you?" Xie Pingyun said: "You all know that when the officialdom is withdrawn, it is like a person walking away and the light goes out. There is no human kindness at all. If it is anything else, dad will show off his old face.
, I want to help you get things done. But Xiao Qi caught Xunxun in the act, who has the courage to overturn his case?"
"Xiao Qi is not an official! How can a businessman compare with an official? You are the deputy governor! Aren't Secretary Wen Shu and Governor Xiong also your colleagues and friends?" Xie Minjuan sobbed: "I
I don’t dare to say that I’m taking revenge on Xiao Qi, and I don’t dare to say that Xunxun won’t be punished at all, but 15 days of detention should be a severe punishment, right? Half a year in jail? His life will be ruined!”
"Xiao Qi is not an ordinary businessman. He is even more powerful than you think." Xie Pingyun sighed, hesitated, and said: "Just now an old guy told me the news. Today
A decision reached at the Central Committee’s meeting this morning. Starting next month, the National People’s Congress will try to plan the ‘criminalization of drunk driving’, that is, increasing the penalties for drunk driving and driving under the influence, and directly interpreting it in criminal law! It is unprecedentedly severe!”
Xie Minjuan was stunned for a moment and said subconsciously: "So what? Xunxun wasn't driving drunk at that time!"
"That's not the crux of the problem." Xie Pingyun looked at his daughter and said, "Do you know who pushed this 'drunk driving' issue? What was the trigger?"
Seeing her father's expression so serious, Xie Minjuan's heart skipped a beat, "It can't be...it's Xiao Qi, right?"
Xie Pingyun nodded seriously: "He and his father pushed it together, and the trigger point was Xunxun!"
"How is that possible? Dad, are you kidding me?" Xie Minjuan didn't believe it at all.
"Xiao Xu was originally the think tank of the country, and Xiao Qi also played an important role beside Niu Ruzheng and Yu Chengsheng. They were able to promote a criminal law reform because of this incident. Can you imagine how powerful they are? At the highest level
How much influence does the decision-maker have? Have you ever thought about it?" Xie Pingyun smiled bitterly and said: "With such a person, you still dare to go against them? Do you think it is useful for me to come forward to face them?"
Xie Minjuan's face turned red and white, and she was trembling with fear.
"Wow……"
The next moment, she suddenly burst into tears, her heart filled with regret, pain and fear!!
Xie Pingyun shook his head slightly and sighed, if he had known what would happen now, why bother in the first place?
